Chapter 27 I am the only one
"Let's talk about it after we go back to the temple." Kong Kong said, and there was some worry in his words.
The two of them returned to Lanruo Temple without incident. After putting away the food, Monk Kong went to find the abbot, but the abbot was no longer in the temple.
Wuyou practices Vajra Palm in the backyard.
"Senior brother, does the abbot bring a knife when he goes out?"
"No, what's wrong?" Monk Wunu stopped and asked.
"A big snake came from the mountains, it's so thick." Wu Sheng gestured, "Don't go to the mountains to pick mushrooms again."
"Oh." Wuyou responded, then looked outside with some worry and stretched out his hand to scratch the back of his head.
"Master will be fine."
It was getting dark, and dinner was ready. They were waiting for the abbot to come back to start dinner, but he didn't come back. According to the usual rules, he wouldn't come back at this time, so they ate without waiting.
But today we have to wait a little longer.
"Don't let anything happen!" Wu Shengxin said.
In normal times, they were used to the abbot appearing and disappearing and didn't pay much attention to it, but today they all started to worry about him. It seemed that as long as Abbot Kongkong was in the temple, he felt at peace and could stay in this temple.
When they were a little anxious, the abbot came back from outside.
"Well, you haven't eaten yet?" Abbot Kongkong asked.
"Waiting for you, senior brother."
"Hey, didn't you say that if I come back late, don't wait and just eat." He waved his sleeves and sat at the table.
Wu Sheng's worried heart finally fell. He looked carefully at the abbot and found that he was covered in dust, with some grass blades still standing there, and a freshly dried wound on his face.
"Don't go out these days. Stay in the temple." After sitting down, Monk Kongkong said.
The other three people looked up at him after hearing this.
"A big snake suddenly appeared in the mountains." He took a sip of porridge and said.
"We heard someone say it when we went down the mountain today in Ningjia Village. Senior brother, isn't that a snake in the mountain?" Kong Kong said.
"No, it should have come from other places. When I came back, I met it and talked with it. It didn't want to leave, so I had to find a way to save it," Abbot Kongkong said.
"How to save?" Wu Sheng asked after hearing this. He already understood the abbot's meaning of "transfer".
"I think it has at least a hundred years of practice. I'm afraid ordinary methods won't work. Let me think about it." The old monk touched his three long beards and said.
After hearing this, Wu Sheng did not continue to ask, and lowered his head to drink the porridge. After all, the porridge was already cold, and it would get even colder if he didn't drink it, and he couldn't help much.
After eating, he walked around the temple. He looked at the courtyard wall, which was more than one foot high, and at the deep mountains under the night. Then he returned to his room. As usual, he visualized the wheel in his mind.
The sun still hung alone, and the figures below were still very blurry.
Before going to bed, he recited a passage from a sutra, which was the Lotus Sutra. Reciting sutras before going to bed has become a habit. This helps him sleep. Basically, he sleeps until dawn, and the quality of his sleep is particularly good.
It was night, he woke up from urinating in the middle of the night, and went outside to relieve himself. He was shaken by a gust of mountain wind. He was about to go back to the house to continue sleeping. When he looked up and looked up, he found two bright urinals hanging outside the courtyard wall not far away.
Something as dim as an oil lamp.
"what is that?"
He took a closer look and saw a stream of electricity running straight from his tailbone to his forehead, and he suddenly woke up.
There were two eyes and a huge head, as big as a rice vat.
Snake, that black snake!
It actually found this temple, but for some reason, it didn't come in and just stared outside the courtyard wall.
Just when Wu Sheng was at a loss, a figure suddenly rushed out of the room, holding a sword in his hand. He jumped several feet high, jumped out of the courtyard wall, and killed the big snake.
The snake head disappeared in response, and there was only a sound outside.
Wu Sheng took a few deep breaths and bravely climbed up the wall. He could only vaguely see a large number of trees falling down, and there was a clicking sound.
"I hope nothing happens to the abbot." He prayed softly.
"Master will be fine." A ghostly voice came from the side, startling him. He turned around and saw that Wu Nu had come out from nowhere and was lying next to him.
"Senior brother, please make some noise next time you appear next to me. You can just give me a squeak."
"squeak."
"It's time now, so don't worry about it."
After a while, Monk Kongkong came back from the woods with a knife and entered the temple.
"Uncle, how are you?" Wu Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"The skin is too hard to cut," said Monk Kongkong.
"You're not hurt, are you?"
"No, it's just a bug." Monk Kongkong said.
"What should we do?" he asked smoothly.
"sleep."
"Huh?!" Wu Sheng was stunned for a moment.
Do the people in this temple have such a good mentality?
Kong Kong closed the knife and strode back to his room. Wu Nui also returned to his room. Wu Sheng turned his head and walked outside the wall, and then returned to the house. He didn't sleep well that night, and that thing always appeared in his sleep.
A huge snake head spitting out snake bites, very scary.
Early the next morning, before breakfast, Wu Chu came to his room and borrowed scriptures to read. Wu Sheng took out all the scriptures, including the "Great Sun Tathagata Sutra" which he might have practiced incorrectly.
", Wuyou read it carefully, finally selected the "Arhat Sutra" and left.
In fact, Wu Sheng really wanted this normally honest and silent senior brother to also choose the "Great Sun Tathagata Sutra". After all, two people practicing at the same time can also have communication, which is better than thinking about it on their own, right? But,
He couldn't force it, because if Senior Brother Wuyou chose and he also went wrong, it would be a disaster for two people at once.
After breakfast, Wu Sheng walked around the temple a few times, and came to the bodhi tree that had grown for who knows how many years. He calmed down, then stretched out his hand, and a gust of wind seemed to rise up, blowing the branches in front of him.
Shaking. He closed his hand and pointed another finger. Breeze Buddha's face. He closed his hand and pointed a third finger. This time, a stream of heat seemed to shoot out of his body along his arm along the fingertips. Then he felt a little exhausted and took a deep breath.
I took a breath, adjusted myself, and then returned to the main hall and sat on the ground, resting while continuing to stare at the Buddha in enlightenment.
After a while, Monk Kong Kong passed by the main hall and sighed when he saw Wu Sheng still staring at the Buddha statue in a daze.
"Hey Master, do you think this Buddha statue has any meaning?" Wu Sheng stared at the Buddha statue and asked.
"What does it mean? The Buddha saves all sentient beings. The Buddha's light illuminates the three realms. I am the only one in heaven and on earth."
"I'm the only one?!" Upon hearing this, Wu Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that he had captured something.
"Yes, in the past, the Buddha stood up and became a Buddha under the Bodhi tree. He held flowers in his hand, pointed to heaven and earth, and said: I am the only one in heaven and earth."
