Chapter 43: Buddha (for one of the allies of this book)
"He became a Buddha." Hearing the Abbot say this flatly, Li Huowang instantly felt a chill run down his back.
He jerked his head up and looked towards the five huge golden Buddhas around him, who had just been solemn and solemn at this moment as if they had instantly changed their faces.
Li Huowang, who was just about to get up, glanced at the sunny sun outside the door and then looked at the abbot in front of him.
The old abbot was still the same as just now, sitting there with full determination without joy or sorrow, as if the words just now did not come from his mouth.
"Wait, don't scare yourself, it may not be what I think."
After pondering carefully for a while, Li Huo Wang reopened his mouth and asked, "Abbot, Zheng De Temple and Danyang Zi should have a quarrel, right."
"Not bad, he previously went around capturing and killing people, making a mess, I once sent the Dharma Academy martial arts monks from this temple, to go and capture him, but he repeatedly escaped."
"You can find a way to get rid of this person, it is also considered a piece of merit."
"Then may I ask Master, how did a ten evil villain like him become a Buddha? How could he become a Buddha?"
"Amitabha Buddha, what he is now doesn't care what he is in himself, the old lineage has Buddha in his heart, in my heart, he is Buddha."
Hearing the other party say this, Li Huowang immediately became annoyed in his heart, this old monk is not speaking properly, he is playing riddles with himself.
"施主，此时的丹阳子遁与大千，我认为他是什么并不所谓，重要的是你认为他是什么，你认为他是什么，他就是什么，毕竟，现在他的因果在于你身，而不是老衲。"
Xin Hui's voice was still uneven, but this time Li Huo Wang understood what he was trying to say.
"Are you saying that Danyangzi has now turned into a shapeless mass that can change with one's thoughts? Similar to the kind of Master You?"
"Ran also."
"But why? How did he turn into that kind of ghostly thing? Those feats of becoming an immortal are all made up by me ah, so many highly poisonous things, eating them should kill you straight away!"
Li HuoWang couldn't think of this even if he tried.
"Lao Di doesn't know."
The other party's words so frankly caught Li Huowang off guard. "You don't know?"
"Laodian is not the future Buddha, unable to be omniscient, monks do not make delusional statements, not knowing is not knowing."
Li Huowang once again pondered for a moment before asking a key question once again.
"Abbot, is there a way that we can completely eliminate Danyangzi? Since he's all but our opponent, it's never a good idea to leave him hanging like this."
He had gone through all the trouble of traveling this far just to solve this.
Never mind what Danyangzi had become, he had to settle him himself.
This time, Xinhui didn't answer so quickly, but after contemplating for a while, he raised his right hand. "Come here, I need to take another look."
Looking at the wrinkled white hand, Li Huowang was a little hesitant.
"Master Xuan Yang, if you still suspect that I want to harm you now, then you should not have stepped through the temple doors just now."
After pondering for a moment, Li Huowang pressed his forehead against his palm.
With a "buzz", Li Huowang felt that all the colors around him instantly became several times brighter, and his body had a feeling of lightness.
This marvelous feeling came and went quickly, and when everything returned to normal, Li Huo-wang did not know what was going on in his heart, and his heart was still somewhat empty.
He understood that this old abbot, not to mention other things, must have certain Buddhist special magical powers.
"Well ...... this matter is of great importance, the old abbot needs to discuss with the other elders for a solution, you temporarily stay in the temple, I will give you an answer tomorrow."
As soon as he heard that he had to stay, Li Huowang was immediately a little nervous. "I still have friends outside the temple, they don't feel at ease if I don't go back."
Seeing Li Huowang's refusal, the Abbot's tone remained unhurried.
"Go or stay as you wish, Zheng De Temple opens tomorrow at the hour, Master Xuan Yang, please don't go back on your word, you also know that if this trouble is not removed, whether it's for you or the world's life it's ultimately a big hidden danger."
When Li Huowang walked outside the temple and stood in the sunlight, looking in, he found that the Abbot had already turned around once again and started chanting again to the huge golden Buddha.
Li Huowang tilted his head to look at the big sun at noon, and looked around the quiet and peaceful Buddhist temple, how to look like there is nothing happening.
Just as Li Huowang had turned around and walked a few steps, the bare back of the head of the Abbot who was chanting began to squirm.
Not a moment later, the smooth skin under the Five Buddha's hat slowly cracked open a slit, and a huge vertical eye the size of a fist drilled out, staring at Li Huowang in death.
At this time, the chanting sound from the old abbot's mouth suddenly became a magnitude louder. "Color is not me ...... If it is me. The color should not be sick and suffer. I desire color as it is ..... I do not desire as is color ....... As you wish. Therefore, when you know ......"
By the time Li Huo-wang had made his seven turns and followed the path between the temples to re-enter the main entrance where there were many people and incense, he had the feeling that he had come to earth again.
Standing in the crowd he looked toward the alley he had just walked out of, "Should I trust him?" Li Huo Wang felt a little hesitant.
"Hey! Taoist priest! I'm here!" Hearing someone call out to him, Li Huowang turned his head to look and saw the old beggar from the road not far away, waving excitedly towards him.
"You've come to this Zhengde Temple? Others are willing to take you?"
The old beggar nodded excitedly. "Well, just now that monk said that he sees me as pitiful and can let me stay and work in this temple."
"That's good, you do a good job here, at least it's better than digging up wild vegetables and eating dead tributes outside, I have to go beforehand, right, I haven't asked what your name is."
"You can just call me monk, I like to be called monk, come and sit in the temple sometime in the future ah."
"Hehe, according to your Buddhist saying, let it be."
Saying goodbye to this old monk, Li Huowang left Zhengde Temple.
When he arrived at the inn he had long agreed upon, the others immediately swarmed up.
Li Huowang raised his hand to stop the others from asking further questions, and said, "I have a matter to hand over to the group, you all scatter separately to inquire about Zhengde Temple from the locals."
Although today's contact with those monks was very normal, he still planned to listen to the locals' views on Zheng De Temple before making any plans.
The others also asked for something and nodded before turning around and heading out of the inn.
Time passed little by little, and when the sun set, the seven people who had dispersed came back one after another and began to report what they had seen to Li Huowang.
"I heard them say that the Zhengde Temple is the largest temple in the entire Xijing City, with the most flourishing incense."
"I heard that the monks are all very pious and strictly abide by the purity rules and regulations, and last time a monk stole meat and was expelled from the temple by them directly."
"I heard that the emperor of the palace also goes to that temple to worship Buddha, if you are lucky and get a good seat, you can even see the emperor!"
"I'm pretty much the same as the one they inquired about that, senior brother, what do you want us to inquire about Zhengde Temple for?"
Li Huowang did not answer, he did not want to tell them something as horrible as the possibility that Danyangzi still existed, lest they be frightened.
He pondered over what they had seen for a while, but after thinking about it, Li Huo Wang realized that he had no reason to refuse.
If he didn't trust these monks, he would have to fight Danyangzi, who had become a "Buddha", on his own. This choice was undoubtedly looking for death.
After weighing the pros and cons, Li Huo Wang decided to return to Zheng De Temple tomorrow.
