Late at night, Jinlu Pavilion.
The old man Zhuan Yu who was meditating in the Jin Chong Tower slowly opened his eyes from his practice.
From the blood hole in his chest, it seemed like a boundless sea of blood was boiling, rolling up a huge wave.
Lines of blood were drawn out from it, and soon gathered in front of him into something that looked like a bell, all scarlet.
Jingle Bell--
The old man Zhuan Yu raised his hand slightly, and the bell floated in the air in front of him, resounding with a crisp sound.
In less than two breaths, a voice suddenly came from the bloody bell.
"Master!"
Hearing this voice, the old man Zhuanyu concentrated slightly.
"how?"
"Disciple... Disciple failed and has now left Tianfo City."
The voice that came from there could be heard to be somewhat panicked in its tone.
"This Buddhist meeting at Dade Temple is just a matter of Tianfo City, but it actually has twelve people sitting in charge. There are thousands of people participating in the Buddhist meeting, but in the end, only less than a hundred people became destined people. This has never happened before!"
"waste!"
The old man Zhuanyu cursed in a deep voice, but at the same time he was slightly surprised by Dade Temple's handwriting this time.
Don't look at the fact that those are just twelve flesh and blood, which is nothing to him, but don't forget that the cultivation level of the people participating in the Buddhist meeting is not worthy of flesh and blood.
This kind of test is used to screen the so-called destined people, and most of them are some Yuanfu Fu organs, and even fake food. You can imagine how difficult it is to pass.
Dade Temple should rather lack than overdo it!
The foolish old man narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the purpose of Dade Temple's move.
"Where is your junior brother?" he asked again.
"Junior brother has successfully passed the Buddhist meeting and went to Yan'an Temple to undergo the three levels of heart examination."
The voice answered truthfully.
Hearing these words, a smile appeared on old man Zhuan Yu's face.
His guess was indeed correct, this boy was destined to Dade Temple!
From the first time I saw Yang Gu in Shifang City, I saw that he was actually using methods related to Dade Temple. Dade Temple's methods would not be spread to outsiders. If this is the case, it means that Yang Gu and Dade Temple must exist. A certain origin.
It is precisely because of this that he accepted Yang Eucalyptus as his direct disciple, and took advantage of the Buddhist meeting in Dade Temple to use Yang Eucalyptus to infiltrate into Dade Temple.
Now it seems that this is really a brilliant move.
Being able to pass the test and enter the third level of heart-testing in such a difficult Buddhist meeting means that this boy is by no means ordinary, and he made the right bet.
If he can pass the three heart tests, this will be the most critical chess piece for Jinlu Pavilion's plan.
"Since you failed, come back. Do not mention your junior brother's affairs to anyone, remember!"
"yes!"
After receiving a response, the bloody bell turned into blood and retracted into the old man Zhuanyu's body.
But he sat for a while and thought about it, and still felt a little unsafe.
If Yang Gu can successfully enter Dade Temple through the three heart tests, then he should erase all the memories of the relevant people!
right! No one can be allowed to know the existence of Eucalyptus eucalyptus except them, the senior officials!
…
Tianfo City, Yan'an Temple, Yinhuan Hall.
In this bright but hazy world, like another dimension, the endless golden Buddha statue looks solemn but full of a sense of weirdness.
Yang Yu gently raised his hand, and his fingers immediately touched the golden body of a Buddha statue in front of him.
The golden body of the Buddha statue was about the same height as him, but it felt suddenly cold when his fingers touched it.
From this we can see that Buddha is also cold!
"[False: The image of the one true Dharma Realm]: It was created by Dehou, the abbot of Yan'an Temple, with ten Zen meditations. The false is used to confuse the true. Those who have no Buddha nature will not investigate the false and the true, and those who have no wisdom root will not understand the meaning of Zen.
Cost of use: Those who inject mana or take the initiative to attack will be hit by the sound of Buddha, suffer the pain of shock to the body and soul, and suffer damage to their sanity.
Status: Can be purified! "
Sure enough, the information box popped up in front of Yang Yu's eyes. The golden Buddha statue in front of him was fake.
But when he saw the content in the information box, Yang Yu couldn't help but smile, and looked at the guys next to him with gloating.
Sure enough, those who moved their hands and injected magic power into the golden body of the Buddha heard screams one after another, and fell to the ground in agony, shaking like chaff.
Of the more than eighty people who were destined to be together, half of them fell to the ground at once, and only half were still standing.
This is the price of rudeness.
And elegance never goes out of style!
Seeing that the fine incense above the head has burned for a quarter, if you want to find the golden body of the true Buddha among the more than 10,000 golden Buddha statues, you must speed up.
Yang Yu suddenly thought about it:
Then give me a high five!
He didn't take his hand back, but just stretched it out, took a good look at the row of Buddha statues, and then stepped forward and walked forward, neither fast nor slow.
His palm suddenly brushed against several Buddha statues one after another, and information boxes appeared one after another in front of his eyes and then disappeared quickly.
Although the information box appears and disappears very quickly, Yang Yu only needs to read the first word. It is not difficult for him to find the golden body of the true Buddha at this speed.
Bang bang bang bang...
This is the sound of palms continuously gliding across the golden body of the Buddha statue, fast and rhythmic.
Without any pause, Yang Gu quickly passed by dozens of golden Buddha statues, but the result was that without exception, these were all fake and they were not really among them.
But he is not in a hurry at all. He still has a lot of time, which will definitely be enough.
After changing the direction, he continued to move forward, following the same pattern.
"What is that guy doing? Is he stupid?"
Although time is very tight now, some people still noticed Yang Yu's actions and couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Maybe there is no hope of passing the test. Let's let ourselves go. Leave him alone. Let's seize the time. If we don't hurry up, it will be too late."
At this moment, even if they have noticed Yang Yu, no one is willing to waste time focusing on him.
It was precisely because he knew this that Yang Yu did what he did.
Time passed bit by bit. The ordinary time of burning an incense stick was extremely fast, but now it was even faster for everyone. It was not enough at all.
Yang Eucalyptus has passed by hundreds of golden statues of Buddha, but all the golden statues he has touched are fake.
Until he changed direction again and kept trying.
This time, before he had gone very far, his steps suddenly stopped.
"[True: the image of the One True Dharma Realm]: It comes from the hands of Dehou, the abbot of Yan'an Temple, and is created by the Buddha's Dharma from the ten directions. The false is confused with the true. Those without Buddha nature will not be able to investigate the false and true, and those without the root of wisdom will not be able to understand the Zen mechanism.
Cost of use: Those who inject mana or take the initiative to attack will be hit by the sound of Buddha, suffer the pain of shock to the body and soul, and suffer damage to their sanity.
Status: Can be purified! "
Looking at the golden body in front of him, he finally found the true Buddha!
There was no prompt in the information box, but the incense above his head was still burning. Half the time had passed, and there was not much time left.
This also means that whoever finds the golden body of the true Buddha will pass the first level after one stick of incense has passed.
And he needs to guard this golden body of the true Buddha until the end of time without being discovered by others.
Thinking of this, looking at the few guys around who were still looking for the golden body of the real Buddha one after another, and many figures running past him one after another, Yang Yu took it into consideration again.
He stretched out his hand and hit the golden body of the True Buddha in front of him. Just when the palm was about to land on the golden body, he stopped for an instant. His body seemed to be imprisoned in place, and then fell to the ground. .
"How could it be! How could it be fake! Ahhhhh——"
There was a look of agony on his face, blue veins bulged, his body was shaking uncontrollably, his hands were holding his head in a similar manner, and he couldn't help but howl and scream.
The movement happening in Yang Yu's place immediately attracted the attention of many people, and everyone looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Many people have just confirmed that there is a price for attacking the fake Buddha statue. Many people have fallen to the ground and have not recovered yet. But this guy still wants to use this trick to distinguish the real from the fake. .
How stupid!
With just a quick glance, everyone who noticed Yang Yu couldn't help but sneer. At the same time, they classified the golden Buddha statue in front of Yang Yu as a fake and quickly looked away.
At this time, Yang Gu was squirming and twisting on the ground, but his heart was numb.
"Gong Niang! Stop biting. Stop biting. Even if you bite, just move to another place. It hurts..."
He wanted to lower the hand holding his head and move it to a position where it really hurt, but it was inappropriate.
Originally, just to be sure, he wanted to pretend to be a bit more like himself, so he asked Gong Niang to give him a sip.
As a result, Gong Niang couldn't help but say anything, just follow her life gate.
hiss--
Yang Yu almost fainted from the pain on the spot.
I don’t know if she had any bad taste, but she pointed at the place where she entered the palace and bit her. It was really indescribable pain.
However, after hearing Yang Yu's words, Gong Niang still relaxed obediently, but she couldn't help but tease her a little.
"Tch, little Bi Zai is a coward."
"..."
"Damn it! I just can't bite you. If I can bite you, I have to let you taste exactly the same thing!"
"Then I'm really looking forward to it."
"..."
What's going on? Why is this guy still climbing up the pole?
Speechless, Yang Yu simply stopped talking to her, and still pretended to be in severe pain, while quietly looking at the others.
Except for the half of the people who fell to the ground like him, most of the remaining people were still spinning around and trying various methods, but they still couldn't find any clues.
However, there are also a small number of people who don't seem so panicked. They seem to have penetrated the Zen machine and discovered the golden body of the true Buddha.
Sure enough, just as Yang Yu thought, the reaction of these guys quickly attracted the attention of other people. When the time left to burn the incense was running out, they chose to take risks and wanted to fight for it.
Two people started fighting over a disagreement, fighting around the golden body of the real Buddha that was discovered.
Other people are also looking for their own goals. Since they can't find it themselves, they will steal what others have found. In order to enter Dade Temple, they will do whatever they can.
A stick of incense burned until only one-fifth of it was left. Someone started to take action, and other people who could not find the golden body of the true Buddha also joined in the robbery. The scene was quite chaotic for a while.
Yang Yu was lying on the ground. There was no one within a three-foot radius of where he was, and no one noticed him at all. He was very happy and at ease.
Time passed bit by bit, and when the fine incense on the head was finally burning to the end, someone had already fallen to the ground.
Some people have defended the golden body of the True Buddha, some are still stubbornly resisting, and some still have not been able to tell the winner.
If it weren't for the fact that the golden body of the True Buddha couldn't move, I'm afraid it would have been carried away long ago.
The faint light above the fine incense finally went out, and the last trace of smoke rose up into the air and dissipated invisible.
At this time, the high-pitched voice of the old monk Dehou came from all directions again.
"The time has come!"
As the sound came, the scene in front of everyone changed drastically again. In just the blink of an eye, they had returned to the Yinhuan Palace.
The old monk Dehou still sat in front of the altar table with his back to everyone, and the leading monk stood quietly aside.
And when everyone returned to the Yinhuan Hall, they saw a golden shadow exuding a bright golden aura, covering some of them, and Yang Gu was among them.
This also means that the results of the first level have appeared.
Some people successfully grabbed the golden body of the real Buddha and passed the first level, but some people failed to hold on and looked gloomy.
There were more than eighty people in total, but only eleven passed the first level.
And when many people saw that Yang Yu's whole body was also covered with a golden shadow, they were suddenly shocked.
Since Yang Eucalyptus was the last guy who dared to attack the golden statue of Buddha and was backlashed, many people have an impression of him.
"This guy! He actually passed the first level?!"
"Hasn't he been attacked? How could it be?"
"Did he find another golden body of the real Buddha while we were not paying attention?"
"No! He was just pretending on purpose! The golden body in front of him should be real, but this guy actually pretended to be backlashed and deceived us!"
Many people were confused, but some people reacted instantly.
This guy... actually tricked them!
When Yang Yu fell to the ground and suffered the repercussions, everyone subconsciously judged the golden body in front of him as a fake. Because of this, no one paid attention to him anymore, so he passed the first test smoothly. close.
Thinking about it this way, they thought this guy was a fool before, but now it seems that they are the fools.
cunning! Really cunning!
When everyone said this, those who didn't know the truth, as well as those who had passed the first level and were happy, all looked at Yang Yu and were on guard against him.
Feeling that so many eyes were watching her, Yang Yu looked calm but cursed in her heart. She really wanted to kill all these talkative guys.
Originally, his original intention was to keep a low profile and not draw attention to himself before entering Dade Temple. However, who would have thought that just after passing the first level, these guys would expose his disguise and make it public.
That is to say, he cannot reveal his true strength, otherwise if any color of light is emitted, no one will be able to escape.
"quiet!"
Fortunately, the voice of the old monk Dehou came again, which immediately silenced everyone present.
The next step is obviously to drive people away. As a loser in the first level, they are not qualified to stay here.
Some people are even ready to say goodbye and leave immediately.
But at this moment, the virtuous old monk with his back to everyone waved his hand. In an instant, the smell of incense in Yinhuan Hall surged, and countless thick smoke suddenly surrounded everyone present.
A series of golden seals flew out from the thick smoke and fell on everyone present in an instant.
Except for the passers-by who were shrouded in golden shadows, no one was spared.
Everyone obviously did not expect this scene to happen. They were about to ask the old monk Dehou what he was going to do, but before they could blurt out the words, the people with the secret seals on their bodies fell to the ground one after another.
Yang Gu was also deep in the thick smoke. Seeing these people all fall down one by one, he couldn't help but stare.
Is there any punishment for failure?
The other people shrouded in golden shadows also had solemn expressions, and they all thought of going together.
"The losers will have their memories related to the three levels of the mind test erased, and the rest will prepare for the second level test!"
The old monk Dehou explained in a timely manner, which made everyone relieved and understandable.
The three tests of the mind are the test after every Buddhist meeting in Dade Temple, but I have never heard of what these three tests are.
If these losers spread the word, maybe someone will come up with a way to crack it during the Buddhist meeting every three years, and then the effect of the three mind-testing tests will become smaller and smaller.
Is it really that simple?
If he hadn't seen Dade Temple's behavior, Yang Yu would have almost believed it.
Anyway, in his opinion, it may not be as simple as erasing the memory, but he doesn't know what Dade Temple will do.
He thought of what the monks had left in Jia Fugui's daughter's body when they were at Jia Fugui's home, and he always felt that Dade Temple was planning something secretly.
Maybe this is why Old Man Zhuanyu asked him to come to Dade Temple as an undercover agent. What he needs to know is the purpose of his trip!
While Yang Yu was thinking about these questions, unknowingly, the scene in front of him changed again, and Yinhuan Hall once again turned into a dark place shrouded in clouds and mist.
Those losers did not appear again, and those who came here were all those who had passed the first level.
But what puzzled everyone was that the golden shadow shrouding his body was still there and had not disappeared.
Could it be that this golden shadow has any role in the next second level?
"The second level is called counterfeiting verification!"
Just when everyone was confused, Dehou's voice came again, still ethereal, but high and loud.
“There is no thought here!
In this second level, no matter what you see, you cannot have any thoughts, words, eyes, or perceptions until your mind becomes clear.
After burning a stick of incense, those who have no thoughts of life can achieve transcendence! "
As soon as Dehou finished speaking, a tall golden Buddha statue appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The golden body is two feet high. It is a statue of the Buddha with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, sitting on the lotus throne, looking forward.
Wearing a cassock and holding a relic in his hand, he exuded a solemn and solemn air of compassion, as if he had an otherworldly aura.
Surrounding the Buddha statue are black and gold lotus pedestals, a total of eleven, which is exactly equal to the number of people who passed the first level.
No need to ask, everyone knows that this is to make everyone sit on the lotus platform.
Everyone present had a tacit understanding. They each chose a lotus platform and sat on it one after another, in a cross-legged meditating posture, which was no different from their usual practice.
Just as everyone sat on the lotus platform, the black-gold lotus platform beneath them suddenly merged with the golden shadows covering them, wrapping everyone up.
"Please close your eyes. The golden body will not be broken, and you will be able to achieve transcendence!"
Dehou's voice came, and everyone followed his guidance and closed their eyes. At the same time, a piece of fine incense quickly appeared on the tall Buddha statue in the middle and began to light.
The second level has begun!
The old monk Dehou made it very clear that he could not speak, he could not open his eyes, and he could not use his senses.
So after everyone closed their eyes, everything suddenly fell into deathly silence.
What does it mean to not have thoughts? Is it that you can’t have any thoughts or thoughts?
After Yang Yu closed her eyes, she was thinking about this problem.
But at this time, the test had begun, and he had to restrain any thoughts in his heart and wait quietly.
There was originally darkness in front of me, and I don’t know how much time passed. Time seemed to have been wiped out of any trace here, and I couldn’t feel the passage of time at all.
Just when Yang Gu was even a little impatient with waiting, a small red fire suddenly appeared in the darkness, accompanied by a sharp laugh.
"A good disciple of my master..."
Suddenly, an extremely familiar sound came from Yang Gu, but before the sound could fully reach his ears, everything suddenly stopped.
In front of Eucalyptus poplar, there is a bright space filled with white mist, and there is a tree.
That’s right, it’s the tree of flesh and blood!
The moment the sound appeared, Yang Gu did not hesitate at all, and immediately immersed his consciousness into the tree of flesh, directly interrupting the scene he was about to see.
Are you kidding me? !
In this second test, if you see the old guy Minghe, isn't he doomed to fail?
As a former disciple of Minghe...
wrong! Ming He must have been his master. No matter when and where he saw this guy, it was hard for Yang Yu not to have the slightest emotion or thought.
Fortunately, the tree of flesh can completely separate his consciousness from reality and is not affected by the outside world.
Fortunately, Yang Yu was already prepared when he learned about the content of the second level test.
Only then was he able to get out of the way decisively when he heard Minghe's voice and heard it before anyone saw him, just before a strong emotional wave occurred.
If it were one second later, I might be eliminated on the spot!
He is also very likely to be the first to be eliminated among the eleven people present.
This second level is too cruel!
Fortunately, the devil is as good as the Tao.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Yang Yu thought, and his consciousness slightly controlled the white mist around him to condense into a thin stick of incense.
He had tried it before, and in the space of the Flesh Tree, the flow rate of time was completely equal to reality.
So whenever the incense in front of him disappears, he can leave here at any time, he just needs to wait for a while.
…
In the Yinhuan Hall, the eleven people wrapped in golden shadows disappeared one after another. Only Dehou and the leading monk who had been standing by were left in the hall.
Of course, there were also the seventy or so unconscious guys lying on the ground.
"Amitabha!"
The old monk Dehou softly recited a Buddhist name.
In the darkness under the candlelight, countless shadows merged into the thick smoke that surrounded everyone.
However, after a few breaths, the thick smoke dissipated, and all the people who had fallen on the ground in Yinhuan Hall disappeared without a trace.
"My Buddha is compassionate!"
…
