"Holy monk, what are you doing here?"
But just when Tang Sanzang and his disciples were about to visit, a monk stopped him at the wrong time.
"It's nothing, I just came here after having enough tea and food, and having nothing to do!"
Tang Sanzang responded like this, but the latter's face turned pale.
He shook his head, "The elder doesn't like to be disturbed by others when he plays the piano. He also asked the holy monk to leave immediately and don't ask for trouble."
As he said that, the monk glanced at the wing behind him, and then left in a panic.
Tang Sanzang frowned slightly, because there was blood flowing out from the crack in the door of the wing.
A gust of wind blew open the window of the wing, allowing him to see clearly what was inside.
I saw a pitiful woman with a ferocious face in the side room.
She seemed to have been subjected to some kind of inhuman torture before. Her face was covered with dense sword marks, making it impossible to recognize her original appearance.
Her hands had been cut off at shoulder level, and her entire body had been chopped off at the waist, leaving only half of her body lying on the bed.
Blood seeped out from the severed parts of her body like a fountain, staining the blue bricks on the ground red.
Beside her, Elder Jinchi was playing the guzheng selflessly.
Sweat poured down his face, black mist surged around him, and slender bamboo vines protruded from his back, blending into the blood beneath his feet.
For a moment, the sound of the piano harmonized with the woman's laughter, and the bamboo and rattan blended with the blood on the ground, as if falling into an extremely mysterious realm.
Such an evil and strange scene made Tang Sanzang's heart sink slightly.
"Master, this golden pond is now haunted by demonic thoughts, so you'd better be careful."
Watching this scene, Sun Wukong reminded him in a low voice.
In response, Tang Sanzang nodded.
Although Jinchi has taken refuge in the disciples of Bodhisattva, he is still a demon after all.
Even though he shows great kindness and compassion in front of others, he still retains the evil side of the demon clan deep in his soul.
Although I don’t know where the woman in the house came from, and why Jinchi looks like this now.
But Tang Sanzang was a passing visitor after all, and as long as it didn't affect him, he didn't want to pay much attention to the secrets behind Guanyin Temple.
"In this case, we should just pretend that nothing happened and leave."
Recalling the previous warning from the monk, Tang Sanzang did not stay any longer, and the two of them immediately turned around and prepared to leave.
"What kind of evildoer dares to disturb my Qingxiu practice?"
But at this moment, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded from the side room!
Tang Sanzang subconsciously turned his head, only to see Elder Jinchi opening his eyes at some point, and his eyes that were as dark as night were looking straight at him!
"You are so bold and evil, you actually broke into this temple without permission and are looking for death!"
At this moment, Jin Chi seemed to no longer distinguish between friend and foe, and suddenly slapped the wooden table!
Woohoo! …
Suddenly, a large number of bamboo vines began to sprout out of his body, carrying a thick black mist through the Buddhist window, roaring towards the two people outside the house like countless devil's claws!
"Elder Jinchi, what are you doing!"
Seeing this, Tang Sanzang's expression changed.
He never expected that Jin Chi, who had been so polite to him before, would suddenly become murderous!
The vast Buddha's light immediately burst out from his body, like a rolling river wave, facing the opponent's swift offensive!
Stab!
In an instant, a large number of bamboo and rattan were crushed by the Buddha's light, turning into debris and flying into the air!
And the Buddha's light also invaded the side room and directly attacked Elder Jinchi's body!
Zheng! …
Under the impact of the Buddha's light, the black mist on Elder Jinchi's body collapsed layer by layer, and the strings of the guzheng in his hand also broke!
In an instant, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.
He was originally filled with murderous thoughts, but his eyes instantly regained clarity, and all the bamboo and vines were withdrawn from his body.
"What...is going on?"
Elder Jinchi looked around blankly as if he had a nightmare.
But it wasn't until he saw Tang Seng and his disciples outside the house that he suddenly realized what he was doing.
"Amitabha, I just got mad while playing the piano. I didn't mean to offend you two. I hope the holy monk can forgive me!"
Elder Jinchi hurriedly walked out of the house with a look of fear on his face.
"Jinchi, what's going on?"
Regarding this, Tang Sanzang also felt a lingering fear, and then he glanced towards the side room.
At this time, the woman with only half her body left was also looking at him.
The conflict between the two didn't seem to frighten her at all. A strange smile appeared on her scarred face at this moment...
"Reporting to the Holy Monk, this woman is called Qin Po. She is an old friend of Lao Monk and is also my savior."
Elder Jinchi did not dare to hide it, "Two hundred years ago, she was murdered by gangsters and tortured into this crazy state, which was neither human nor ghost. The old man couldn't bear it, so he took her back to the temple to support her."
"Just now Qin Po's madness recurred, so I came in a hurry. Only the sound of the piano could bring her back to peace..."
"But I was also trapped by the resentment in her heart, so I had evil thoughts. I almost offended the holy monk. Please forgive me!"
After hearing this explanation, Tang Sanzang, who was quite unhappy at first, instantly lost his temper.
returning a Favour many times more.
The life-saving grace can only be repaid in one lifetime.
Elder Jinchi's ability to work hard and take care of this woman who has long since ceased to be a ghost for two hundred years is also an immeasurable merit in itself.
Although Buddhism is a pure place where female relatives are not allowed to be kept, Jinchi himself is a maverick monk, so there is no need to worry too much about this little detail.
But what Tang Sanzang couldn't understand was that Jinchi's Dharma was boundless and could regenerate the limbs of the disabled and restore the health of the sick.
And why didn't he directly use the supreme Dharma to redeem Qin Po and let him get rid of his suffering as soon as possible?
"Holy Monk, please do not tell the Bodhisattva what happened today, otherwise my practice in this life will be completely ruined..."
While Tang Sanzang was thinking, Elder Jinchi on the side begged again.
In response, Tang Sanzang shook his head, "Don't worry, elder, I'm not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's business. I can pretend that I didn't see what happened today, so you don't have to worry."
"In this case, I will thank the holy monk for his grace on behalf of Qin Po!"
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang felt helpless.
After all, I was originally a golden cicada in my previous life, and I was nominally equal to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Elder Jinchi is just a mortal disciple and a bamboo demon.
In his opinion, Tang Sanzang was a high-ranking figure. Now that he came to the temple to pray for Buddha, his joy and anger would inevitably make him walk on thin ice.
"That's all, it's better to finish your business and leave early, and don't embarrass this bamboo demon."
With this thought, Tang Sanzang immediately changed the subject, "By the way, elder, where are the scriptures that the Bodhisattva prepared for me now?"
"It has been properly stored in the Cangjin Pavilion. If the holy monk does not mind that it is getting late, I will take you there now."
After hearing this, Jin Chi was overjoyed and quickly made a gesture of invitation, eager for the master and apprentice to leave this place.
In this regard, Tang Sanzang didn't say anything more and immediately walked out of the courtyard with him.
Before leaving, Sun Wukong, who was with him, did not forget to turn around and glance at Po Qin in the room.
"Interesting, it turns out to be a piano demon!"
After one glance, Sun Wukong couldn't help but sigh.
Just because under the blazing eyes, this crazy woman with no limbs suddenly turned into a broken Jiaoweiqin...
