Chapter 44: Zhengde Temple
Inside the Hall of Five Buddhas, Li HuoWang once again met Abbot XinHui, this time he was no longer alone, and behind him sat four old monks lined up accordingly.
"Since we're here, then Scholar Xuan Yang, let's make it short, we need to do a Pudu Lent to transcend him."
"Alright, then Abbot, let's begin." Li Huowang immediately spoke.
"Be at ease, Scholar Xuan Yang, Danyang Zi's karma lies within you, before doing this spell, you still need to meditate before we can begin."
"Meditate?" Li Huowang was puzzled.
"Amitabha Buddha, Scholar, your heart is very unquiet, your heart is sick."
Before the Abbot could finish his words, Li Huo Wang quickly retorted in a harsh tone, "I'm not sick!"
As soon as these words left his mouth, Li Huowang himself was startled by the volume of his voice.
Looking at the five old monks in front of him looking at him meaningfully, Li Huowang took a deep breath and clenched his fists that were beginning to tremble. "Dare I ask Abbot, what do I have to do to meditate?"
A yellow-covered scripture was delivered to Li Huo Wang, "Take this Five Aggregates Sutra back with you and recite it three times a day, morning, noon and night."
Li Huo Wang took it and opened the scripture, it was full of raw Buddhist scriptures, cloudy and completely unable to understand the meaning.
"Just recite it? There's no gong method? And no need to eat anything?" Such a simple step was far below Li Huo Wang's guess.
Seeing Abbot Xinhui shaking his head, Li Huowang picked up the scriptures and was about to walk out, just as he was about to reach the door, he turned around and looked at the old monks sitting on the group bushes.
"Abbot Xinhui, does Zhengde Temple have cultivation techniques?"
"Naturally, there are, as long as the mage is willing to shave his head and return to this temple, the hidden scriptures are at your disposal to look through."
Hearing this, Li Huowang turned around and left, there was no way he could become a monk.
"Xuan Yang Shi Shi Master, this period of time will live in this temple, so this running around, you trouble us also trouble."
This time Li Huowang didn't refuse, since they all believed in each other, to be wary of this again would rather look like they were being petty.
Zheng De Temple inside a separate compartment was organized, Li Huo Wang quietly stayed here to look at the scriptures he sent over.
In the first few days, Li Huowang was still a bit nervous, but after realizing that no one in the whole temple cared about him at all, even if he ran to the bustling main hall and watched the monks read the divination signs, no one paid any attention to him, he gradually let go of his heart.
Late at night, in the company of an oil lamp, Li Huo-wang held this scripture in both hands and recited. "My life is finished. Brahmacharya has been established ..... What has been done has been done, and there will be no afterlife. When I speak this Dharma. The five ruminants, etc. In the midst of all the troubles. The mind is liberated. Believe and practice ....."
When this so-called "The Sutra of the Five Aggregates is Empty" was first recited, Li Huowang didn't have any feeling, but as each day passed, after he realized that the quality of his sleep was getting better and better, that's when he realized that this thing was really useful.
After calmly reciting it once, Li HuoWang slowly put the book and on and blew out the oil lamp to prepare for sleep, and in his mind he began to calculate what he was going to do afterward.
"When we clean up Danyangzi, let's go find the Black Taiyou, if I can stabilize my condition, then I can live in this world in a stable manner."
"But that Black Taiyou looks quite fierce, if I really catch it, how am I going to bind it and cut its meat every month?"
"Right, there's also strength, one must gain enough strength to defend oneself, but that's equally difficult."
Just as Li Huowang thought of this, he suddenly saw the shadow of a human head flickering outside the door, and his body instantly tightened.
"Someone in the temple is watching me?" Li Huowang slowed his pace and slowly walked over to the door, pulling open the latch.
Jerking it open a crack, the small courtyard outside the door illuminated by the moonlight was empty, Li Huowang cautiously peeked his head out and noticed that in the distance, the corner of a yellow monk's robe was quickly dragging into the dark corridor.
"What's this monastery up to?" After pondering for a moment, Li Huowang slowed his pace and followed.
Walking a few steps closely, by the light of the moon Li Huo Wang saw the bald head in front of him, from the back it was impossible to see the front, but from the fact that there were no scarring scars, it could be seen that he should have a low status in Zhengde Temple.
In this way, the crows and silences in the temple, one in the front to walk, one in the back to follow far behind.
As they walked, suddenly the monk flickered and drilled into the hidden doorway next to him.
Li Huo Wang just about to drill into, but thought, turned around this temple on the other side, with a hand dipped in a little saliva poked through the paper window.
Compared to the abbot stayed in the five Buddha hall, this hall is not big, can even be said to be very small, inside the offerings of a hand pinch decision a hand bottle of Bodhisattva than the human small not to mention, even the candles on the offering table is only a little more than the human, not to mention.
Even the candles on the altar were only two, making the whole hall very dim.
At this moment, someone is kneeling in front of the Buddha, but not the monk who just went in, but a woman.
"A woman? In a temple in the middle of the night?"
Without waiting for Li Huowang to figure this out, the woman recited in a low voice.
"O Bodhisattva of Great Compassion, please, grant me a son, if I can't produce another son, my man will sell me."
Just as she was saying these words, a monk with a naked upper body quietly came up from the back of the Bodhisattva.
A red cloth was pulled by him and gently tied around the woman's eyes.
The woman didn't resist after her body trembled violently, her breathing gradually became heavy and
In her one breath, followed by seven or eight bald men came out from the surrounding darkness, hands folded toward her slowly surrounded.
"This is the truth that seeking children is very spiritual?!" Li HuoWang was dumbfounded by what he saw inside, overturning everything he had previously known about ZhengDe Temple
Suddenly he sensed something and turned around violently, only to see that under the bright moonlight in the courtyard, the one called Kin Chaos stood there like a statue. "Discovered!"
Looking at Li Huo Wang, Jian Chaos said nothing, only gently waved his hand and turned away.
Glancing again at the chaos that had begun in the temple, Li Huo Wang gently followed.
Kin Chaos did not take Li Huo Wang elsewhere, but brought him back to his quarters, and immediately afterward lit the lamp oil and took a seat on the stool.
"I know what the Shi Master is thinking. Perhaps thinking that the monks of Zhengde Temple have six impure roots? But does the mage really think that all those joss-steppers are fools? Why do they come to worship the Buddha in the middle of the night?"
Li Huowang, who stood in the doorway, did not say anything, waiting for the other party to go on.
"Someone wants a son, so we give them a son, monks are compassionate, this is doing a good deed."
Hearing this, Li Huowang could not help but frown. "Then your good deeds are quite numerous and large."
"Zhengde Temple has never had any disciples say that their own Bodhisattva's quest for a son is spiritual, it's all spontaneous publicity from the incense seekers, we didn't say and they didn't ask."
