Bo!
Ripples rippled at the fingertips, and streaks of colorful light and shadow rippled around, tightly wrapping the blisters with a gasp.
The blisters can be seen getting smaller and smaller with the naked eye, and the old monk inside is no longer as calm and calm as before. He is shouting in a panic, but not even a single tone can be transmitted. His facial features were ferocious, his hands and feet were restrained, and he was shrunk to the size of an egg yolk with a whoosh.
Lin Ji raised his hand and plucked it down in his palm, and sneered: "There is still a use for keeping an old donkey like you, but we can't let you take advantage of it like this!"
As he spoke, he flicked his fingers into his sleeves.
Click!
The stalagmites on the roof of the cave no longer dripped water, and they shattered into dust with a crisp clicking sound, turning into rice-sized moths flying around.
"Go!"
Ling Chen threw out the talisman, and the fire rose and burned it all.
Amidst the rumbling sound, the big piece of bluestone cracked open, revealing an eight-leaf lotus flower the size of a fist. The six leaves were shining with color, and the other two and a half were withered and yellow.
"Holy Lord! This is the six-leaf golden lotus!" Lingchen's eyes lit up.
"Six-leaf golden lotus?" Lin Ji glanced at it casually and said, "But that old donkey's reincarnation?"
"Exactly!" Lingchen's face turned red, and he could not restrain his excitement as he said: "This lotus has no flowers, no fruit, no coming and going. It is the condensed object of reincarnation in the Buddhist sect! The ninth grade is the best, and the eighth grade is inferior. That’s it. It’s the best in the world to have six leaves of golden light!”
"The reincarnation technique is very different from our Taoist method of seizing the body. To seize the body requires a great reduction in the Taoist realm, but it is better because it is safe and rarely unexpected. The Buddhist reincarnation method is to reincarnate without losing the magic power. It's just... There is a crisis, and once the rotation fails, it will be like running out of oil!"
"This old donkey is the reincarnation of an Arhat, so he has the number of eight leaves. But he died after only six leaves. Even so, it is rare in the world. If he had come here a long time ago, the old donkey would not have crossed the lotus in Nirvana. Before the leaves are spread, a little later, after the old donkey transforms, it is useless to wither the lotus leaves! It seems that it is time for the Holy Master to obtain this great treasure!"
Lin Ji smiled and said: "In that case, just accept it! If you head west, you can easily pick up the eight leaves and nine leaves!"
"This..." Lingchen hesitated for a moment and wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw Lin Ji turned around and left without looking back, he thought to himself: "What kind of identity is the Chosen Holy Lord? How could this mere six-leaf golden lotus be let go?" In your heart?!”
After thinking about this, he quickly bowed: "Thank you, Holy Lord!"
After saying that, he walked forward and carefully picked off the lotus flower and put it into his sleeve.
When he walked out of the cave, he saw Lin Jizheng looking up at the stone wall with his hands behind his back. Beside him, Xiaoying had not yet woken up, but she was breathing smoothly and snoring like thunder.
If no one had seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that the snoring sound, which sounded like a thundering bull, was actually coming from this charming girl.
As soon as he saw that Xiaoying was fine, Lingchen was completely relieved. He turned around and looked around. He didn't know what the Holy Master had discovered. He just stared at the inconspicuous top of the wall and stared blankly for a moment. Dare to ask.
Lingchen walked down alone for a while, and found more than twenty country girls trapped and tied up with iron ropes deep at the bottom of the cave.
All of them looked dull and miserable.
"What a sin!" Lingchen sighed and stepped forward, breaking the iron chain with a bang, pointing out the way to Xiangcheng for them and then letting them disperse on their own.
When I came back again, I saw that Xiaoying had woken up and was staring blankly at Lin Ji. When she heard the sound of footsteps, she turned her head and said curiously: "Elder! Why are you here too? Junior uncle..."
Lingchen quickly waved his hand, signaling her not to disturb her.
The Holy Lord is chosen by heaven, and his luck is like a rainbow. Maybe he has realized some great opportunity!
But how did he know? At this time, Lin Ji had already wandered out of his mind and crossed over to the sky.
…
when!
Dangdangdang...
The morning light shimmers, and the leaves shine with cold light.
One after another, loud and clear bells came from far away from the top of the mountain.
A stone platform with green steps that is thousands of feet long goes straight up. On both sides of the stone steps is a white mist and an abyss.
Swish, swish...
A monk and two young men with red lips and white teeth walked down the steps holding brooms.
"Hey? Why is it him again?" The young man in monk's robes looked up and saw a figure in blue standing at the end of the stone steps.
"Yes, and no!" The young man in Taoist robes stopped, tilted his head and thought, "What he came here this time was not his real body, but just his wasted consciousness!"
"Isn't it different?" The young monk touched his bald head and said, "Second senior brother said that the body is like a ferry, the soul is a passer-by, the other shore is boundless, and the empty sea is boundless! Even if he can enter with the power of his spiritual consciousness, So what about Yujing Mountain? Isn’t it like an ant? Even if you and I don’t stop him, he might step on the steps?”
The little Taoist boy glanced at him sideways and said, "Are you sleeping secretly again when Senior Brother was teaching the Dharma? You only listened to the first half of the sentence, but forgot the second half. Second Senior Brother was afraid that we and others wouldn't understand, so he even imagined the other side of the river. A detailed speech!"
"There are thousands of people in the dust, just like the fish swimming in the water. Some eat mud, and some eat shrimps. But no one takes a second look at the shore. After a lifetime, it will be nothingness. Occasionally, a few jump up to take a look, Seeing the long bay of the big river ahead and knowing the speed of the rapids is quite remarkable! It is also called a ray of secret."
"Those with great wisdom, great perseverance, and great luck may be able to give it a try! If you can make it to the shore, you and I will become you!"
"But how vast is this world? Even if we reach the shore, it is only an inch of land beside the depression. You have to explore the outside world by yourself. Even the third senior brother is no more than three mountains away!"
The little monk scratched his head and said: "I can't remember these words clearly, but when he said the last few words of "Children's Song", I happened to wake up. But I still remember it! On the shore and off the shore, it seems that we are separated by fish and big fish. Small, a single fruit is hard to achieve, a grass has no good or evil, and the sky is like a long river! Senior brother, is this true?"
"You're smart!" said the little Taoist boy, "If you forget this formula, I'm afraid you'll have to get hit in the next test! Well...Second Senior Brother..."
As he said that, he turned his head and looked up carefully at the slightly exposed temple corners, and whispered: "Elder brother's temper has not been very good recently! You must be more alert! Don't get into trouble again and punish you with hard work. , but you hit on me again!"
"I know, I know!" The little monk grinned and shrank his neck. Just as he was about to wave the broom, he turned his head and looked at the green shadow under the steps and said, "Then what should we do? Won't we chase him away this time?"
"Why do you care about him?" The little Taoist boy said: "Although the foundation is good, after all, the Tao has not yet been achieved! It is not a real body, and it cannot break through the void. Even if it comes here with just a trace of spiritual consciousness, it will not last long. Why? ?He can still...huh?!"
Xiao Daotong was halfway through speaking when his face suddenly filled with shock!
The little monk next to him also had his mouth wide open and his eyes widened!
What they both saw with their own eyes was that the figure in green clothes far away at the bottom of the steps hesitated for a moment, then lifted up the corner of his clothes and stepped forward, and landed firmly on the stone steps!
when!
At the same time, the bell on the top of the mountain rang again.
Lights and shadows danced wildly in the sky, and a small figure suddenly appeared above the long steps.
The little boy had his hands behind his back, and his eyes were as bright as the sun, falling towards the bottom of the stairs.
"Elder brother!" The monks hurriedly bowed and saluted.
