[Chapter 352] The mystery of spirits (15)(1/2)
【Chapter 352】The mystery of spiritual objects (15)
As soon as Li Longji's disciples heard that the visitor was the Governor of Wei, they opened the door wide and said eagerly, "Come in quickly, please come in quickly, my master has been waiting for you at the house for a long time..."
Of course, the governor of Wei was shocked: As soon as Wei and I arrived at his gate, he, the King of Luzhou, already knew. Could it be that he had a spy around Wei? Even if he couldn't trust Wei and had an informant around him,
But Wei had a dream last night and came to see him on the spur of the moment this morning. The spy had no time to report him, not to mention that this was not an important military matter?
It can't be that he, Li Longji, has clairvoyance and ears, right?
The governor of Wei was puzzled and walked forward uneasily, only to see that the king of Luzhou, Li Longji, had already gone out to lower his rank regardless of his status and came to greet him, looking very anxious.
Seeing that Li Longji was impatient but not malicious, the governor of Wei felt a little relieved. He quickly stepped forward to salute and walked into the palace with Li Longji.
After sitting down, before the governor of Wei could speak, Li Longji said happily, Haha, Mr. Wei is indeed here today, I have been waiting for a long time!
Governor Wei was even more confused and couldn't figure out: Why is it that Sure enough is coming today? I, Wei, did not make an appointment before coming here, let alone inform me in advance. How can I say the word "Sure enough"?
Seeing the confused look on Wei Governor's face, Li Longji added, Oh, it's like this. Yesterday, a monk came to beg for alms in front of my house. He didn't want Mimi, and he didn't accept the money. He insisted.
He shouted that he could not see me, and argued with his servants in front of the palace gate. At that time, I felt uneasy, so I asked the servants to let him in.
When the monk saw me, he neither knelt down nor worshiped. He just clasped his hands and chanted the Buddha's name. I thought he must have thought that the money given to him by his servants was too little, or that he wanted to beg alms to build a temple, so he asked
He said, "As a monk, you don't chant Buddha's name in the temple, or travel to practice, and ask to see me. What are your plans? Besides, what is the use of Buddhist monks who need so much money and rice?"
Unexpectedly, the monk said loudly that the poor monk did not come here for money...
You didn't come here just for alms, so why are you looking for this king? You certainly don't want big ingots of gold and silver, and black gauze official robes, right? I asked him impatiently before he could finish his words.
The monk said carelessly that the poor monk is a monk, so what is the use of asking for money? This time, I came here specifically to congratulate you...
Congratulations to this king? Where do you start with these words, and why are you so happy for me?
Seeing the king asking this question, the monk smiled slightly and said, "If you are lucky enough to meet a poor monk, you can resolve dangers and bring good fortune in times of trouble. Isn't this worthy of celebration?"
When I first saw that monk's cassocks were worn out and looked a little crazy, I thought he might be an expert in Buddhism. But when I heard him boasting so brazenly, he even said that I was lucky to see him and that he was worthy of celebration.
After a while, I immediately felt that the guy was talking nonsense and was annoying, so I lowered my face and prepared to kick him out.
As a result, the guy smiled coldly and said something softly, leaving me stunned.
That sentence goes like this: Hum, a junior official dreams of a corpse about to be promoted, and a high-ranking official dreams of a corpse to be promoted again. However, if the dragon son, dragon grandson, always dreams of countless corpses, there is a risk of a U-turn!
Just the monk's cold words made me feel like I was covered in ice water in the dog days of summer. I quickly stood up and left my seat. I ordered my servants to bring in the brocade chair. I called myself Master and hurriedly invited you to take a seat. Because I have been here recently.
I always sleep restlessly at night, dreaming that there are countless corpses stacked on top of each other, almost too many to count, and the bones are emitting smoke upwards, which makes me restless and wake up several times.
That horrible and frightening dream happened to me several nights in a row, and it was the same every time. A few days ago, I quietly asked an expert to consult, and they said that it was an old saying that if a corpse in a dream gets an official position, this king would
Having this strange dream is a good sign for further promotion...
However, this king is the descendant of Emperor Taizong. According to the "Interpretation of Dreams by Duke Zhou", he should be different. What's more, that dream was too bizarre and scary - it was not just an ordinary corpse, but
There are layers upon layers of countless bones!
So, when I heard that monk say, "The junior officials dream of corpses and will be promoted, and the high-ranking officials dream of corpses and they will be promoted again. However, if dragons, dragons, and grandsons always dream of countless corpses, there is a risk of turning around!"
In other words, I know that I have met an expert today--
-----When most people interpret dreams, they at least need to be told what they dreamed about before they can interpret it. But for this monk in shabby cassocks before me, I didn't mention the dream at all. He actually already knew what the dream was, and it was not the world.
What is a foreigner?
Therefore, I immediately paid homage to the corporal and ordered my servants to show the eminent monk his seat and serve tea. Then I humbly asked him, what is the eminent monk’s name? Where did he come from and where is he going? How do you know what I have been dreaming about recently...
The monk was still slightly crazy and said that the poor monk has no name and no surname. He came from his mother's womb and went to the blissful place in the west. As for the dream, hehe, when he sees the clouds gathering, he knows that it will rain, and when he hears the wind, he knows that the leaves are falling.
What's so strange about that?
It turned out to be an expert monk! I became more polite and considerate. Please ask him to tell me what disaster is causing me and how to solve it?
But the monk declined and said that tomorrow a governor named Wei will come to ask for an audience. Let's talk about it together then, otherwise it will be very troublesome to have to say the same thing twice.
Tomorrow, a governor surnamed Wei will come to ask for an audience. Does this monk really have the ability to predict the future? Although his words seem to be nonsense, I am convinced - after all, he has never
It is absolutely rare to find someone who can know what I am dreaming about just by meeting you!
After saying those words, the monk immediately stood up and left, saying that he would naturally come again tomorrow after the governor named Wei came. Then he turned around and left. The king could not stay, so he quickly walked out and left the palace...
..
Because of this, I firmly believe that the Governor of Wei will come as scheduled today, so I have ordered my servants to invite the Governor of Wei to come in immediately if he asks for an audience.
I had breakfast and was expecting the Governor of Wei to come. Unexpectedly, the Governor of Wei showed up at this moment. But the monk...
Before Li Longji finished speaking, he saw a disciple coming to inform him that the crazy monk yesterday was now asking to see him at the door again.
While Li Longji hurriedly ordered his disciples to invite the monk into the house, he and the governor of Wei stood up to greet him. This kind of outsider who could communicate with ghosts and gods and had strong magical power was of course more important than ordinary officials, so he let Li
Longji personally stepped down to welcome him.
When Li Longji and Governor Wei saw a disciple staggering in with a monk in tattered cassocks, Governor Wei blinked hard. When he saw who it was, he immediately bowed forward and said very piously.
, it turns out that the Living Buddha is still alive, and Wei is being polite...
When Li Longji saw this, he was very surprised and said, Oh, Mr. Wei, it turns out you know each other. No wonder he said you would come today, and you came today as promised!
The implication of Li Longji's words is, have you two colluded long ago to perform a double act in front of me? Otherwise, there would be such a coincidence. Yesterday, a bad monk said that there would be a governor named Wei.
Come here, and you have arrived today?!
The governor of Wei hurriedly explained that the official and the living Buddha were strangers to each other. They only met in a dream last night...
Then he briefly told the whole story of why he came to see Li Longji, emphasizing that the dream told him: "The King of Skeletons has been sleeping for thousands of years and has been filled with misfortune; there are hundreds of thousands of bones, and he has turned into an alien shape and appeared in the temple; he wants to
If your anger is scattered and people are in peace, please quickly find King Li of Luzhou..." The monk is exactly the same as the eminent monk in front of me!
Li Longji was of course even more surprised when he heard what the Governor of Wei said: Could it be that this half-crazy monk is really a living Buddha? Forgive him that the Governor of Wei would not dare to talk nonsense and deceive the king!
Just when Li Longji and the governor of Wei were surprised, the monk still said carelessly, "The poor monk has a bald head, so don't you two always put such a high hat on a monk like me! What kind of living Buddha and eminent monk? The poor monk is just like that"
Just a mediocre practitioner!
The governor of Wei widened his eyes and said in surprise, "This is not even a high-ranking monk. He can predict the unknown, can detect dreams, enter the dreams of subordinate officials, and interpret the plight of the people. What is this if not a living Buddha?"
But the monk said seriously that magic and magic are all about magic. Dharma is the great way, and magic is just a small skill. The poor monk did not understand any wonderful Buddhist methods. He only cultivated some trivial skills. Compared with the great magical powers of Buddhism, they were nothing more.
It’s just a drop in the ocean, how can it be called
Is that the living Buddha monk? Well, I remembered that the poor monk seemed to have a dharma title of "Three-Day Monk" back then. Well, it seems that he was called Three-Day Monk. If you find it inconvenient to call me a monk, just call me Poor.
The monk "Three Days Monk" is well...
Three-day monk? Li Longji and Wei Governor looked at each other speechless. They really didn't expect that this monk would have this title! So they called him "Three-Day Master" and quickly invited him to sit down and watch tea.
As soon as the cup of tea was finished, Master Three Days said straight to the point, this must be the governor of Wei, right? The poor monk knew that strange things happened frequently under the governor's charge, why didn't he express it to his superiors earlier?
The governor of Wei was sweating on his forehead, and repeatedly expressed that he had made an oversight.
However, Li Longji was very anxious about his own affairs, and immediately asked for advice, Master Three Days, you said that my king's dream corpse is inauspicious, what difficulties will there be, and how to resolve it?
The three-day monk laughed and said, "Haha, didn't the poor monk tell you yesterday? When you meet a poor monk, you will naturally resolve the danger and bring good fortune in the event of death. This matter is taken care of by the poor monk. And this
The matter is closely related to the strange things that Wei Governor encountered, so I asked you two to come and talk about it later. It’s just...
Li Longji immediately asked eagerly, "How about it? If you need to do any rituals, such as water and land dojo, please speak up, master. I already know the strange things under Wei Governor's rule. I also ask master to show mercy to the people."
It’s important!
The three-day monk suddenly said solemnly, in this case, the poor monk can speak frankly. The nature is like this, the cycle of heaven, there is nothing we can do, please arrange the carriages and horses as soon as possible, bring more dry food and water, and bring overnight supplies.
If you have a lot of things, plus a lot of shovels, follow the poor monk to a place, and then the two adults will naturally understand.
After saying this, the three-day monk immediately stood up, looked at Li Longji and said, without further ado, the poor monk has already seen the adults yesterday, and today, it has already been two days. Only half of today and one day tomorrow are left, otherwise it will expire.
Don't wait - that's why the poor monk calls himself Three Days!
Three-day monk, that’s what it means! But I don’t know what he was doing before that, and where will he go after three days?
Li Longji did not dare to neglect, and immediately ordered his servants to prepare food for the carriage and horses, and add some tents, especially sharp shovels and quick shovels, etc. Soon he took a group of followers and boarded the carriage, according to what the three-day monk said
Speeding away in the direction...
Sitting in the carriage, Governor Wei opened the curtain and saw that he was running forward along the road he came from - it seemed that he was really going to deal with the strange things in the autonomous Xiazhou County!
However, the more they walked, the more deserted and deserted the road became, and the road became more and more narrow and rugged. In the end, it turned out to be a completely deserted wilderness, with only the whistling wind whistling like a mournful sound...
.
The journey was bumpy, with wind and sand rising all over the sky, and the carriages and horses galloped for a long time. Finally, at dusk, the three-day monk ordered the car to stop.
Before the three of them got out of the car, they heard the followers screaming in surprise, as if they had discovered something terrifying. This made Li Longji very surprised. Although there were many escort sergeants following him, it seemed a bit abrupt and adventurous.
------It's all because of my impatience that I followed that crazy monk here without any consideration, not knowing exactly where this place was.
When the three of them got out of the car and took a look, it turned out that the surrounding area was a barren land with no grass growing! The sky was filled with yellow sand and the sad wind was wailing. Looking in the direction where the followers were looking, Li Longji was immediately stunned!
It turned out that this place seemed familiar to him, and after a moment of thinking, he realized that this was the ghostly place where he had been dreaming about countless corpses for several days!
Not only is this place uninhabited, but looking along the yellow sand, the rocks not far away look like human heads, which is very bizarre and amazing!
The three-day monk seemed to see what Li Longji was thinking, and he quickly stepped forward and said, Your Excellency, you read it right, those things are not stones, but human skulls!
Shocked, Li Longji and the governor of Wei immediately walked forward under the protection of their entourage, wanting to see if the abrupt layers of strange rocks in front of them were really human skulls as the three-day monk said!
