"?"
A trace of doubt flashed across Sun Zhenbang's face, and he subconsciously asked: "Talk paper?"
The abbot nodded and said with a firm tone: "If you ask me to bring out my Buddha Talisman, I will naturally be able to deal with the evildoers."
Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei on the side looked at each other in confusion, wondering what kind of medicine the abbot was selling in his gourd.
Although Bai Yanfei said that she had been to Qiguang Temple before and knew that there was something strange here, but it was really unbelievable to ask the evil people to subjugate themselves with the talismans.
The old monk next to him didn't care about the attitude of the people around him. He moved very quickly and led several monks next to him to rush to the room where the "Prajna Sutra" and the talismans were enshrined.
Among the curls of cigarette smoke, the golden body of Buddha sat cross-legged, watching all living beings. Everything seemed so peaceful and peaceful, not affected by the storm coming from the outside world.
"Amitabha, some people have done evil today. Please ask the Buddha to save all sentient beings and appear again to punish the evildoers."
The eminent monk recited the Buddha's name, his eyes full of piety, he bowed respectfully, and then carefully took down the altar and the talismans on it.
When the old monk came back, everyone could clearly see what they were holding.
The dark sandalwood altar looks very simple, without any patterns on it, giving it a calm and atmospheric feel.
Just on the altar, there are two yellow talismans. There is nothing special about it for the time being. They are like the yellow talismans that are very common in Taoist temples.
It's just that the writing and patterns on it seem to be slightly special, slightly different from those seen in ordinary people. It's not Buddha or Tao, so I can't tell the difference.
But people don’t understand this. At first glance, they just think it’s ordinary.
However, as soon as the yellow talisman came out, all the monks worshiped it devoutly, as if there was really a god manifesting in the world.
The onlookers and people in the research center hid in a distance to avoid danger, and this scene also fell in their eyes.
"Isn't this just an ordinary two-striped yellow paper? It's not a fantasy to expect this to save people."
"Although these monks have good intentions, in this critical moment, isn't this child's play?"
"It's really hard to criticize. You say these monks have great moral practices, but you still believe them. You say they don't have high moral practices, but they are able to deal with gangsters without fear in the face of danger."
People in the archaeological center whispered for a while, not believing that these two talismans could have any effect.
But I also know that the monks have good intentions and are pious to their faith, which inevitably makes everyone feel a little complicated.
Qin Yu and Li Hai held hostages in the inner circle, while the police surrounded them outside. The monks held the altar devoutly behind the police.
As for other tourists and people from the research center, they were hiding in the distant palace, observing what was going on here.
At this time, Qin Yu and Li Hai in the encirclement also noticed the movement here, but they were far away and could not see clearly. They only knew that this group of monks seemed to have invited a few talismans?
Suddenly, there was a burst of ridicule in the two people's hearts, feeling that these bald donkeys were too naive, and it would be damned if this really worked.
Therefore, the two of them just glanced at each other and paid no attention. They continued to confront the police, watching out for police snipers.
As mercenaries, the two of them have so much experience. Although the atmosphere is tense at the moment, they are not panicking. Faced with such a complex environment at this time, they can think of many ways to escape. As long as there is a chance, they can escape.
Not to mention them, even the police outside were speechless. One of the police couldn't help but said:
"Abbott, the situation is already critical. The lives of the hostages may be in danger at any time. Please don't cause trouble here."
It can be seen that these monks are devout in their faith, and they are not panicked when facing the gangsters, and even try to persuade them. Of course, their cultivation and quality are not mentioned, but the talismans behind them are too unreliable.
It’s just two pieces of yellow paper. What role can it play?
To put it bluntly, this is superstition. If the talismans are useful, why do they need the police?
Is it possible that just like in the TV series, just throwing two talisman papers over, the criminal can be punished?
The police asked the monks to retreat further away from the two gangsters, so as not to be distracted from the safety of the monks.
Looking at the human wall of policemen in front, it was almost airtight. It was obvious that they had no intention of letting the monk come forward again.
The old monk couldn't help but look worried, looking at the small altar, "Brother, what should I do now? How should I use this Buddha Talisman Paper?"
The abbot clasped his hands together, his eyes fell on the talisman next to him, and said truthfully: "I don't know either."
The old monk's eyes were stunned. He originally thought that the abbot must know how to use the talisman when he asked for it, but what he heard was this answer.
The abbot seemed to notice everyone's speechlessness, and said calmly: "But since it was left by Master Zhidun and placed next to the Heart Sutra, I think this is the reminder given to us by Master Zhidun."
The old monk had profound Taoism and quickly understood what the abbot meant.
"Senior brother, you mean to ask us to recite the Prajna Heart Sutra to summon the power of the talisman?"
The abbot nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he sat cross-legged in front of the altar with a solemn treasure, slowly turning the beads in his hand, and blurted out the Prajna Heart Sutra.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, after walking in the deep Prajnaparamita for a long time, he saw that the five aggregates are all empty, and he survived all the hardships."
"I'm finally enlightened!"
Other monks followed closely, sitting cross-legged and reciting Buddhist sutras in a circle around the altar.
As the scriptures were recited, the originally ordinary yellow paper seemed to be injected with an invisible force. The writing and patterns on it seemed to have life and began to flow slowly.
…
the other side.
Qin Yu and Li Hai's patience was exhausted. They stared at a group of policemen with eager eyes and threatened with a sneer: "Hurry up and give us a car. Otherwise, don't blame us for dying together. There are so many people at the scene and such great pressure from public opinion. You have to bear it." Can’t you live there? Why don’t you call and ask your leader for his opinion?”
Looking at the trembling middle-aged man and the calm but pale monk, Sun Zhenbang's face turned extremely ugly, and he could only relent: "Give them a car!"
The police are accused of protecting people's safety. This is two human lives, and they cannot sit idly by.
And indeed, as the two gangsters said, the pressure from public opinion is too great.
So we can only try to figure it out slowly, and we can't push them into a hurry.
Sun Zhenbang looked evil and stalled for time, "We can let you go, but you must keep your promise and don't hurt them!"
Looking at the police who finally relented, Qin Yu showed a proud smile.
"Don't worry, officer. If we are safe, these two people will also be safe. But if you dare to play any tricks, we will also pull a few back before you die! By then, tomorrow's news will definitely be what your leaders don't want. have witnessed."
Sun Zhenbang didn't say much nonsense, but looked at the two men gloomily.
Soon a car drove over.
Qin Yu and Li Hai held the hostages and walked over cautiously.
"Stay back!"
Qin Yu was quite smart and worried that the police would attack them while they were getting into the car, so he yelled at all the police to back off.
The surrounding police officers made no movement, and were watching Qin Yu and Li Hai eagerly.
Qin Yu raised his pistol in demonstration, "What? Do you want to regret it? I'm not afraid of death, but ask if the person in my hand is afraid?"
Sun Zhenbang clenched the gun in his hand, the veins on his hand popped out, and ordered in a deep voice: "Back off!"
The policemen looked serious, and then they all retreated and slowly made way for them.
A black curtain shrouded the sky, the deafening thunder became more frequent, and the rolling dark clouds poured into the world and mountains, like thousands of wild horses that had escaped from the reins, coming with their hooves and their manes.
"Relic, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, form is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true for feelings, thoughts, and consciousness."
The sound of Sanskrit sounds is endless, even in such a tense atmosphere, it is still coming from the mouths of monks not far away, but everyone has long ignored this sound.
Even the originally solemn and solemn temple was cast under a layer of gloom. Suddenly, a dazzling lightning flashed across the sky, and the dark sky suddenly lit up.
As the thunder exploded, everyone's heart sank and they felt even more depressed.
For some reason, Qin Yu and Li Hai were inexplicably flustered. They always felt that something bad would happen if they stayed here. They quickened their pace and moved closer to the car.
From time to time, he threatened the policemen nearby with hostages.
"I'm warning you not to play tricks, otherwise we won't be polite!"
"If you don't want these two people to die, don't make any small moves."
Li Hai's gaze was like a falcon, flying through the police.
Seeing the two people getting closer and closer to the car, the policeman beside Sun Zhenbang couldn't help but said: "Captain, what should I do? Do you want to take action?"
Sun Zhenbang rubbed his temples and said, "We can't move for the time being. There are too many people here."
For Qin Yu and Li Hai, the hostages are equivalent to talismans. Even if they get into the car, the police will definitely not give up the pursuit, so they will take the hostages with them.
Sun Zhenbang sighed, "Find the right opportunity later to see if we can rescue the hostages. Instruct us to go down and let others act accordingly and adapt accordingly."
Thick dark clouds plunged the whole world into darkness, and the expressions of Qin Yu and Li Hai became more and more ferocious.
Thunder, chanting, noisy discussions...
They surrounded their ears one after another, and the whole temple fell into a special scope.
The two talismans on the altar seemed to have golden light flowing, vaguely intertwined with purple light, as if echoing the thunder and lightning in the sky, and filled with inexplicable power.
There is an extraordinary breath flowing slowly in the air, which even changes the surrounding magnetic field, and there is an energy gathering here.
Countless thunder snakes danced in the thick clouds and were attracted, wandering around and converging on where Qin Yu and Li Hai were!
Only the dark outlines of the distant mountains not far away were left. The dark clouds were so thick that they lowered the peaks. Even the originally peaceful temple fell into the gloom.
Qin Yu and Li Hai felt some inexplicable palpitations, their hearts became more and more nervous, and their palms became a little sweaty. This inexplicable intimidation came from nowhere and accelerated their desire to escape from here.
"Come on, I always feel a little uncomfortable."
Seeing that Qin Yu's hand had touched the car door, all the police officers had their hearts in their throats, but for a while they couldn't find a chance to make a move.
Click!
At the right time, as huge raindrops washed away people's sight, a dazzling white lightning instantly engulfed the entire sky, like a huge wave rising from the sea, and the world fell into a state of whiteness.
Even the entire Qiguang Temple was illuminated, and the red walls and black tiles were full of indescribable dignity.
At the same time, the two talismans on the altar table in the distance also flashed purple arcs. Gold threads and purple light shuttled between the lines. The patterns and writing on them were about to come to life!
It's just that the speed is too fast for the human eye to catch.
But the abbot who was originally reciting the sutra seemed to feel something at this moment. He suddenly looked up to the sky and shouted: "Prajna Buddhas, manifest their true bodies!"
The host holds Buddhist mudra with his hands and chants the eight-character Buddhist mantra.
"Om! Well! Zhi! Mou! Yeah! Sa! Lie! De!"
The moment the mantra fell to the ground, thunder exploded in the sky.
Boom!
As if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking, two purple lightning bolts with devastating power appeared out of thin air and landed on the heads of Qin Yu and Li Hai without any warning, like swords of judgment!
"Crack!"
The thunder dragon roared, and the heaven and earth shook.
The lightning was so dazzling that everyone couldn't help but raise their hands to cover it, and vaguely saw a thunder snake running towards Qin Yu and Li Hai.
The pressure that cannot be described in words enveloped them together, and it was as if tens of millions of mountains were pressing down on them. The two of them were almost heartbroken, and the hairs all over their bodies stood up. In the end, they couldn't help but their knees weakened, and they knelt down directly. Fall to the ground.
"what happened?"
Qin Yu's eyes were about to burst, and his facial features became distorted due to fear. Under such oppression, the two of them had no way to escape and nowhere to escape.
My mind was spinning. These were my last thoughts and questions before I died.
"Ah~!"
The next moment, only two shrill screams were heard, and the electric light had already swallowed them up.
"Get out of the way!"
"It's thundering, stay back!"
What followed was a loud roar. Everything actually happened too fast, but within a short time, everyone recovered and hurriedly asked the crowd to retreat.
"Why are you so tired all of a sudden?"
"Is everything okay?"
The police officers asked each other, their faces were frightened and uncertain, and their hearts were beating fast. The thunderstorm just now really scared everyone.
Mainly because the distance is too close!
The thunder and lightning struck right in front of my eyes, almost blinding me.
At this moment, they gradually calmed down, and everyone noticed the sudden change in the situation, and their faces suddenly became weird.
"This is……"
Looking closely, there were already two black charred bodies on the ground not far away. They were almost unrecognizable and had no breath of life.
The most important thing is that the two humanoids were still kneeling when they died, as if they were atonement!
It was those two gangsters!
The two hostages fell not far away, but there was no damage on their bodies.
Their expressions were dull, full of horror and fear, and they probably did not expect that they could actually escape death.
"Struck to death by lightning?"
Sun Zhenbang suddenly looked up at the sky. There were still dark clouds and constant thunder, but there was no such big battle as before.
The chanting stopped.
The noise stopped.
Only muffled thunder and rain hit my ears.
The whole place was silent, and everyone who saw this scene had their eyes widened, stagnant in place, unable to recover.
"Amitabha, my Buddha is compassionate."
"Kowtow to thank the Buddha for his appearance, and ask the talisman to return to the temple for worship."
Until the abbot's voice broke the original silence and awakened the shocked onlookers.
As if to echo what the host said, another thunderbolt fell from the sky. The sky was as bright as day, causing quite a ripple in everyone's hearts.
"died?"
"Struck to death by lightning?"
"this……"
Everyone finally came to their senses at this moment, staring at the scene in front of them in stunned disbelief, unable to believe that this scene was happening.
Recalling the scene just now, as well as the abbot's final shout that was almost synchronized with the thunder and lightning, and the kneeling posture of the two gangsters, everyone's eyes became horrified.
Everything was such a coincidence. At the critical moment, a bolt of lightning fell, but so many people did not strike, but instead struck to death two gangsters who were disrespectful to the temple!
Even the nearest hostage was unscathed, which is simply an incredible miracle!
"That talisman..."
Sun Zhenbang subconsciously looked back and saw that one of the two talismans on the altar in the distance had turned into ashes!
The monks reacted quickly. At this moment, they respectfully carried the altar and returned it to the temple. There was still a talisman on it for continued worship.
The abbot stepped forward, and the police subconsciously gave way.
Seeing Qin Yu and Li Hai lying on the ground, the abbot clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name in a low voice, "Amitabha, if I had known today, there would be no need to do it in the first place. You would have had the opportunity to turn back."
"Oh, I am the Buddha who is merciful."
"Namo Amitabha Ye, Duotagadu Ye, Duo Di Yeta, Amilidu Povi, Amili Duo, Sidanda Povi, Ami Xiduo, Vikalanda, Ami Xiduo"
The abbot regained his former kind-hearted look and no longer had the angry-looking Vajra image just now. He softly recited the mantra of rebirth, and other monks also joined in.
The thunder in the sky became smaller and smaller, and the scriptures floated between heaven and earth, spreading to the distance.
The work that should have been handled by the police was temporarily put on hold at this moment. All the police stood there and watched quietly, with mixed emotions and a bit unable to turn around.
After reciting the Purana Sutra, the abbot clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, I hope you will not do evil in the next life and wash away your sins."
After saying this, the abbot made room and returned to the temple with a group of monks.
No one expected that things would end like this. The two gangsters were killed by thunder, the hostages were safe, and there was almost no need for police action.
The police quickly cleared the scene, and people were sent to the two hostages to provide comfort and counseling to avoid psychological trauma.
After what happened just now, many tourists were frightened. The abbot vacated the wing to let them rest for the time being. If they wanted to go back to the city directly, they could do it. Anyway, the things here were over.
"I was really scared to death just now. Fortunately, these gangsters were killed by lightning in the end, otherwise they would be a disaster if they were left alive."
"Who says it isn't? But the thunder and lightning are so magical, as if they have eyes, and they are specifically targeting these two people."
"I have to brag about what happened today when I go back. I really witnessed a miracle."
"These two gangsters have been unlucky for eight lifetimes. Even God can't stand it anymore."
"Perhaps it was the Buddha who appeared. I didn't hear anything but the abbot said, this is the Buddha's talisman!"
"Do you believe this? It's just a coincidence. These two people were accidentally struck by lightning. How can there be such a magical thing? Two talismans can summon thunder and lightning."
"You can't say that. Qiguang Temple is quite good. I heard that there was a story about the Buddha appearing before. I also heard about it."
"In short, if you believe it, there will be something, if you don't believe it, there will be nothing. I'd better go burn incense and pay my respects first, and then get rid of the bad luck."
The tourists were talking a lot. Some were so frightened that they planned to burn incense sticks in the temple before leaving to seek peace of mind. Others rushed back to the city immediately, wanting to stay away from this place of right and wrong.
The police heard the discussions of these pilgrims and could not help but discuss quietly while carrying out the aftermath work.
"It seems that there are still many superstitious people nowadays. They are just two ordinary talismans. It is a coincidence that the gangster was hacked to death. There is no connection between the two at all, don't you think so?"
"It happened to be a thunderstorm. Although it is incredible, it can only be said that the two gangsters have suffered retribution. God will take care of them."
Coincidentally, the monk passing by heard this conversation and shook his head.
"The words of the two benefactors are wrong. Why did the thunder and lightning only hit those two people, but the hostage next to them was not hurt at all? This is not a coincidence, but the power of the talisman!"
The power of thunder and lightning is so great that it stands to reason that the hostages would be affected if they were so close, but the result is that they are safe and sound, which is really incredible.
The police were speechless when asked, and they could not answer the question.
Bai Yanfei on the side recalled her previous experience of coming to Qiguang Temple. Coupled with this experience, her heart couldn't help but ripples.
Could it be that, as the monk said, the Buddha really appeared?
And what is the explanation for what happened that day?
And that mysterious snake that disappeared in a blink of an eye...
Captain Zhou was lost in thought, looking at the ground not far away. Now the gangster's body had been disposed of, leaving only two dark marks.
Is it an apparition of Buddha or a coincidence?
If it were in the past, he would naturally deny it directly, but after experiencing the Longyuan Mountain incident, his mood is no longer firm.
This incident has also become an unsolvable mystery in everyone's mind.
However, even if they did not believe that it was the talisman or the Buddha, the police still believed in this kind of 'retribution'.
Good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil, they have always believed!
Especially if it happens in a place like a temple, even if you don't believe it, you will still be in awe and don't want to say anything.
It's just that because of their status as police officers, they can't discuss it too much.
But, except Sun Zhenbang!
Because before that, he had been exposed to more weird things.
In the past few years, the things that happened in Longyuan Mountain have become even weirder, and there have been more coincidences. Sun Zhenbang would not believe it if there was no extraordinary intervention.
Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, Sun Zhenbang had already accepted it all subconsciously.
"Is it possible that besides Longyuan Mountain, there are also inexplicable existences in Qiguang Temple?"
Sun Zhenbang was so absorbed in thinking that the policeman beside him shouted several times without hearing him.
"What is Captain Sun thinking about, so fascinated?"
Sun Zhenbang shook his head, opened his eyes and told lies, "I'm thinking about a case."
"Team Sun, the scene has almost been cleaned up. When will we go back? The city leaders are still waiting."
Sun Zhenbang and others were chasing him from Fog City. The gangster was dead at this moment, and they had to go back to recover.
"You guys go to the car and wait for me. I have some things to take care of."
The policeman looked at Sun Zhenbang walking away quickly and felt a little strange, "Hasn't everything been settled? What is Captain Sun trying to deal with in such a hurry?"
…
The abbot in the room was reciting scriptures. The wooden fish in his hand was very rhythmic, playing a long and steady rhythm. Amidst the curls of cigarette smoke, his expression was as joyless and sorrowless as the Buddha statue he enshrined.
After what happened just now, he was not too disturbed because he believed from beginning to end that the Buddha would definitely take action.
Hearing the sound of footsteps at this moment, the abbot slowly opened his eyes and recited the Buddha's name, "Amitabha, donor, please come in."
Sun Zhenbang appeared at the door, said "Excuse me", and then went straight to the point and explained his purpose.
"I have something that I hope the abbot can clear up."
As if he knew what he wanted to ask, the abbot slowly put the wooden fish in his hand next to him, "Does the donor want to ask about the talisman?"
Sun Zhenbang nodded. He was a little curious. Is there a mysterious existence similar to Longyuan Mountain in Qiguang Temple?
"Since the donor is interested, I might as well talk about it."
Immediately, the abbot told about the recent appearance of Buddha.
"The appearance of these two talismans today is the best proof."
If it was just their guess before, now that they have seen the power of the talisman, the monks can be said to be convinced.
There was a moment of silence in the room, and neither Sun Zhenbang nor the abbot spoke.
The abbot sighed faintly, "It's a pity that I don't have the opportunity to see the true relics of the Buddha again, but being able to save two lives is considered a meritorious deed."
Sun Zhenbang has been a police officer for so many years and can judge the authenticity of some words through a person's demeanor and subtle expressions.
It can be seen that the host did not have any objection when he said these words. He obviously believed deeply in the appearance of Buddha.
Sun Zhenbang hesitated for a moment, but finally asked the final question, "May I ask the abbot, do you believe that there are extraordinary powers in this world?"
The abbot smiled slightly and replied without hesitation: "Of course I believe it."
He paused, with a somewhat meaningful look on his face, "I think the donor must believe it, and he may have encountered it before, otherwise he wouldn't have asked such a question, right?"
"In this case, just follow your heart. Whether it is there or not depends on what the donor thinks."
"It's just spirituality!"
These words were similar to what Taoist Priest Qing Wei had said. Sun Zhenbang was thoughtful, thanked him, and walked out of the room.
As Sun Zhenbang left, the sound of chanting wooden fish sounded again, which seemed to have a special magic power that purified people's souls.
Sun Zhenbang stood at the door, lost in thought.
According to the phenomenon described by the host, the phenomenon of Qiguang Temple is different from Longyuan Mountain. There is nothing special in itself. What is special is the unknown existence.
As for the unknown existence, it is impossible to know whether it is the appearance of Buddha.
Because the monks have never seen the true face of the "Buddha", they can all judge it through the traces behind it.
This point is the same as when I came into contact with the Longyuan Mountain incident. I have never seen it with my own eyes, but it is full of mystery.
So what exactly is this "Buddha"?
Will he appear in Qiguang Temple in the future?
In the same way, what exactly is the 'Mountain God' of Longyuan Mountain?
If Sun Zhenbang knew that the "Buddha" mentioned by the abbot and the "Mountain God" of Longyuan Mountain were actually the same being, he would probably be confused on the spot.
But now he hasn't discovered the secret yet.
After all, one is in "Fog City" and the other is in "Yunling"; one is far away in the mountains, but the other is in a lively temple.
No matter what, the matter was over for the time being. As he was preparing to return, Sun Zhenbang glanced at Qiguang Temple. Amidst the curls of incense, the solemn and solemn temple had an inexplicable majesty.
Sun Zhenbang couldn't help but think of the mountain temple in Longyuan Village. Although the two were completely different, they gave him an inexplicable feeling of familiarity.
"It's an illusion. Let's not talk about the distance between the two. The beliefs on both sides are also different. One is dedicated to Buddha and Bodhisattva, and the other is dedicated to mountain gods."
Just as Sun Zhenbang was lost in thought, footsteps came from behind him. When he turned around, he saw that it was Bai Yanfei and Captain Zhou.
"You can't find it anywhere you look. It turns out you came here to take a break."
"Why are you here?"
Captain Zhou smiled heartily and said, "I heard that you were leaving, so I came to see you off, but your colleagues said that you still had some unfinished business."
He looked at Sun Zhenbang's expression and said with some confusion: "The criminals have already been punished, why are they still looking sad?"
Sun Zhenbang subconsciously touched his face, and then sighed, "What do you think of today's incident?"
Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei looked at each other and immediately understood what Sun Zhenbang meant, and fell silent.
He was not asking about the gangster case, but about the coincidence and miracle that happened afterwards.
After a while, Bai Yanfei said: "Actually, the incident of the Buddha's appearance in Qiguang Temple was widely spread before, and I was also present at that time."
She talked about the details of that night, feeling very emotional. She didn't expect that when she came to Qiguang Temple again, what happened refreshed her understanding again, each time becoming more and more bizarre.
"Then do you think the Buddha really appeared?"
These words should not have appeared in the mouth of a policeman, but when faced with Sun Zhenbang's question, neither Team Zhou nor Bai Yanfei responded immediately.
In the past, they would have never hesitated, but after experiencing these things, they discovered that some things really cannot be explained by science.
Team Zhou asked back: "What about you? Do you believe it's the Buddha who appears to you?"
This time none of the three spoke.
"Officer Sun—Officer Sun—"
A voice calling Sun Zhenbang was heard not far away, and the police in Wudu were about to leave.
"I hope that when we meet again next time, we already have the answer in our hearts."
After Sun Zhenbang said goodbye to Bai Yanfei and Team Zhou, the group quickly drove away from Qiguang Temple. The temple with red walls and black tiles continued to shrink, gradually becoming a small black dot and disappearing from his sight.
The scenery outside the car window kept receding, but the police officers could not calm down.
Although there were no casualties in this mission, it was thrilling for them.
As the police left one after another, the sky gradually cleared up, and the gloomy sky suddenly revealed a glimmer of light. The rays of rays of light weaved several colorful rainbows into the sky.
The thunder was hidden in the clouds, and finally the dark clouds dispersed, and the long-lost sunshine shone on the temple, as if the Buddha's light was shining, dispelling the haze and panic caused by the gangster incident.
"Look, the sun is coming out!"
In the temple, many people stood and looked up at the sky, attracted by the beautiful sky.
Professor Song and others from the Kyoto Archaeological Center looked a little complicated at the moment, recalling what the abbot had said before and the talismans introduced to them.
At that time, no one took it seriously, and they only thought that the monks in the temple were exaggerating or even making mysteries.
But not long after that, I experienced such an incredible thing.
There was a young man in the team who couldn't help but wonder, "Could it really be the Buddha's blessing that Master Zhidun appears again?"
"It has been recorded in ancient books that Master Zhidun was involved in Buddhism and Mystery. Although it is not clearly recorded whether he knew the art of talismans, maybe this talisman paper was really painted by him?"
If it were before, many people would definitely refute him, but now, no one in the research center said anything. Although they felt it was unrealistic, they didn't want to argue for the moment.
That thunder and lightning was so clever that the two hostages were not injured even though they were so close, but it only hit the gangster, as if they had eyes.
Moreover, the gangster's kneeling posture at the end seemed to be atonement for the sins he had committed. In the end, the talisman was turned into ashes, which is really imaginative.
"It would be great if Master Zhidun really showed up. I could just ask him about the ancient bronze sword."
While they were lost in thought, the abbot walked towards Professor Song and others, "Amitabha, what happened today has frightened everyone."
"Abbott, you're welcome."
Professor Song hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help but ask: "May I ask if what happened today is really the blessing of the Buddha? Or is it the power of the talisman?"
The abbot smiled and said, "If the donor believes it, the poor monk's answer is not important. If the donor does not believe it, no matter how much the poor monk says, it will not help."
Professor Song shook his head and laughed, knowing that he was thinking about it.
The people in the research center originally wanted to leave, but they stayed in the temple again because of this incident.
If it is really Master Zhidun who appears, can they start from this aspect?
Although this idea sounds a bit fanciful, but now that there are no clues, they really have no choice.
Professor Song couldn't help but sigh, "If Master Zhidun can really manifest his holiness, he hopes he can help us solve the puzzle of the ancient bronze sword."
The abbot remembered something, "In the early years, Master Zhidun once discussed Taoism with an expert, which had a profound impact on his Buddhist research. It can be said to be a major turning point in his life."
Professor Song and others nodded, "We also know this historical record, but it's strange that there is no detailed record of this matter in ancient books. It was just mentioned in passing. I don't know why the host suddenly mentioned it."
The abbot pondered for a moment and said, "Is it possible that this master is the one who gave the sword to me?"
"this……"
Professor Song and others were stunned. This idea had never occurred to them before.
The origins of the ancient bronze sword and this master are a mystery, and no relevant records have been left in history books.
It makes sense if you think about it carefully, after all, both are exactly the same mysteries.
Unfortunately, the identity and origin of that expert is also a mystery, and no information has been preserved.
Assistant Li next to him seemed to have thought of something, "The skeleton of Master Zhidun appeared in the world at almost the same time as the time when the Buddha appeared in the temple."
Professor Song pondered for a moment and said jokingly: "If Master Zhidun really appears, it should be at the place where he passed away."
Of course, this assumes that the appearance of Buddha is true.
After hearing Professor Song's words, it was the abbot's turn to be stunned.
This is the temple founded by Zhi Dun. Apart from him, there seems to be no other candidate. So when they saw the "Prajna Heart Sutra" being read, and the special smell left in the air, the monks first thought that it was Zhi Dun. Escape has been here before.
However, after discussions at the research center, the abbot had other ideas in mind.
You must know that Qiguang Temple did not have any strange things before this, but it only appeared during that period of time. It seemed that there were two invisible hands controlling everything!
The abbot felt something, and his expression showed a bit of annoyance.
"Amitabha, the poor monk previously thought it was Master Zhidun who appeared, but now it seems that it is someone else, not the Buddha."
"Perhaps it was the mysterious master who discussed Taoism with Master Zhidun who appeared and left the talisman to show his holiness and protect our temple!" (End of this chapter)
