Chapter 38: Lingyun Temple

With the reputation of the Leshan Giant Buddha, Lingyun Mountain has long been a well-known Buddhist holy land in the world. Su Shi, a literary master of the Song Dynasty, once wrote:

I don't want to be a marquis of ten thousand households

I don't want to know Han Jingzhou

I hope to be a Han Jiaguan

Walking in the sky while carrying wine

I think Lingyun Temple should be a prosperous place with a prosperous incense, but the Qing Dynasty was shaky and wars continued. This Buddhist pure land seemed deserted due to the lack of support from the court and pilgrims.

Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing climbed up the mountain along the stone stairs. At the entrance of Lingyun Temple, a little monk was cleaning the steps. When he saw the two, he gave Buddha rituals and said, "Who are the two donors? What's the point of coming here?"

The two reported their real names and asked him to help introduce the abbot. However, the little monk said, "The abbot is so troublesome and does not meet guests at will. Can you make an appointment in advance?"

It seems that it is impossible to see the abbot directly, but he is afraid that he will lose his credibility after making up a lie at will. After thinking about it, Tian Yi should have arrived here in advance. Pu Zixuan said: "We are the doctors who are invited by the boatman Tian Yi to treat his son's strange disease. Tian Yi and Abbot Shi Ran have a deep friendship. They should have come to Gui Temple to meet the abbot last night. I hope the little master will come to inform us and let us meet."

These words are not lies, and they are reasonable. The young monk has already known about Tian Yi, so he quickly clasped his hands and said, "So that's it. I'll go and report to the abbot, please wait for a moment."

The two of them watched the scenery outside the door and waited. They saw that Lingyun Mountain was indeed a Fengshui treasure land. From a high place, they could see the convergence of the three rivers. On the west side of the Dadu River is Leshan County, and on the south side is Fengzhou Island. As expected, it was like a phoenix spreading its wings. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that the magical craftsmanship of nature.

"Oh, no!" Chen Shuqing suddenly said, "No, I'm wrong. If the abbot asked us how we knew about the barrier, how should we respond? If it weren't for the monster, we would definitely not be able to feel that barrier!"

Pu Zixuan also woke up: "Yes, unless it is said that one of us is a monster, but this is really inappropriate. It is not good or bad, so we should not go to see the abbot."

Just as the two of them were hesitant, the little monk came back and made a gesture to invite them into the door, saying, "Abbot Shu Ran agreed to you. He is waiting for you in the Great Hall of the Great. Please follow me."

Now that things have come to this point, the two of them have to bite the bullet and think that if they encounter any problems, they can just respond casually.

After saying that, the little monk silently led the two to a temple. He saw that the temple was a two-story building with a rich and black tiles. Due to disrepair, some of the tiles had fallen off or were damaged. A plaque was hung above the door, with four strong characters "Mahatma Hall" written on it.

The little monk finished his mission and performed a Buddhist ritual and turned around and left.

Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing walked into the hall and saw four statues of gods on both sides. On the high platform in the middle was a golden Maitreya Buddha statue. Under the statue, an old monk wearing a red cassock was chatting with Tian Yi.

When Tian Yi saw the two, he stood up enthusiastically to greet them like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years. Pu Zixuan said: "The old man is injured, so he should rest well, and there is no need to be too polite."

Tian Yi said: "You two must be in trouble when you come here. How can I lie down safely? Come and introduce it to you. This is Master Shu Ran from Lingyun Temple."

The abbot Shuran bowed and said, "Amitabha, last night, the donor Tian came to the temple and told me about the cause and effect of the matter. The donor Tian has donated merit money to the temple for many years. Now he is in trouble. How can I stand by and watch? Alas, I think that the child is in evil spirits. I have seen it last year, but I have a shallow practice and have no way to deal with it. The two donors have supernatural powers and don't know if they can come here, but they can have some useful places."

"Master Abbot, I'm lucky to know." Pu Zixuan didn't know how to mention the barrier, so he first mentioned the question of arrow injury. "That's right, Shuqing was injured by a hidden arrow on the island today. I heard that there were spiritual medicines for healing in the temple, so I came to ask the master to lend a helping hand."

Tian Yi was shocked: "What's going on? Did those officers and soldiers come to the door again?"

Pu Zixuan had no choice but to say: "This is not, it's just that we were sneak attacked by an unidentified person on the way to Heifeng Mountain."

Abbot Shu Ran asked, "Where is the injury? Can you let me see?"

"Well..." Pu Zixuan didn't know how to speak. In order to cover up, Chen Shuqing was inconvenient to wear a pair of trousers in this cold weather, and she turned into a simple cloth dress early. Buddhism emphasizes abstinence and abstain from sex. If Chen Shuqing wants to show her shoulder injury, she must take off her clothes. In this Great Hall, it is really harmful to the moral integrity.

The abbot of the Release understood and smiled and said, "Amitabha, if you are in a difficult situation, I will just look at it." After that, he took out a soft bottle from his sleeve: "This is the plaster 'Bu Ling San' developed by the graft temple, which is made of ice toads and wasp poison, combined with the essence of Polygonum multiflorum. It happened to be used by the donor of Tian last night. Donor Pu can use it to help Donor Chen apply it to the injured area. The effect of one day is better than that of ordinary plasters for three days."

Pu Zixuan took the plaster and thanked Chen Shuqing repeatedly.

Tian Yi said: "I am still worried that even if the injury is healed, you will still encounter extremely dangerous things when you return to the island. If so, I would rather break Jin Kun than go to the Black Wind Mountain to take such a big risk."

At this point, Pu Zixuan said, "We came to see the abbot today, and we also wanted to find good solutions to resolve risks. In the morning, we walked to the foot of the Black Wind Mountain and saw mysterious talismans posted on many trees, with Sanskrit written on it. It must be a Buddhist thing. I wonder if the abbot can give me some advice."

The abbot Shu Ran was stunned and asked, "Dare you ask why Donor Pu is concerned about this talisman?"

It seems that the demon-sealing talismans are indeed related to Lingyun Temple. Pu Zixuan avoided the important and said lightly: "There is magic power on this rune, which is exactly the same as my power, but I don't know whether it is the enemy or the friend. If we don't understand the origin first, we will not dare to go up the mountain rashly."

The abbot of Shu was shocked and asked, "Are you the two donors also purifying messengers?"

As soon as the four professional words "Purification Messenger" were released, Pu Zixuan was even more surprised than the abbot and replied: "Since the abbot knows the theory of Purification Messenger and monsters, I don't have to hide it. I have awakened the power of purification recently and dared to go up the mountain to eliminate monsters. As for Shuqing, he also has his special identity. If the master can give us guidance and troubles, we are willing to share all our experiences."

"Haha, since Donor Pu is determined to eliminate evil, I am naturally willing to tell the truth. However, Donor Chen is injured and should not delay it. I also ask you two to go to the backyard guest room to take medicine and have a good rest. I will come to you later to discuss in detail."

From the abbot's eyes, Pu Zixuan felt that he should have wanted to have some in-depth conversation with the two, but because Tian Yi was there, it was inconvenient to talk in detail. Tian Yi also understood the worldly ways and said with the flow: "That's right, the matter of eliminating monsters, you can discuss with the master for a long time, and ask you to heal the wound first."

After saying that, Abbot Shu Ran called another little monk and asked the little monk to lead the two out of the back door of the Main Hall, through a yard, and took them to a simple wing room, and also brought them a basin of clear water.

When the little monk left, Chen Shuqing slowly removed her shirt and showed off her clean and clean back. She saw that the wound near her right shoulder had been solidified by sky blue blood. If she had changed to face other women on weekdays, Pu Zixuan would definitely carry her to bed jokingly, but this familiar feeling came again. Facing Chen Shuqing's jade body, he developed a feeling that he could only see from afar and not play with it. He was afraid that any lustful act would accidentally offend her and destroy her previous state of warmth.

"Xiaojiu, can I start?" Pu Zixuan asked respectfully.

"What are you still hesitating about? You should be responsible to me as a shield."

Pu Zixuan smiled and cleaned the wound with a towel, then squeezed out the plaster and applied it to the wound.

As soon as he came into contact, Chen Shuqing cried out: "Ah, it hurts so much!"

Pu Zixuan said, "Pain is the best medicine, and it is to use poison to fight poison." Then he continued to apply it back and forth around her wound. Chen Shuqing gradually got used to the pain and held back and forth, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her neck.

If Pu Zixuan hadn't known her identity, it would be hard for someone else to imagine that such a body would be a monster.

After applying the medicine, Chen Shuqing pulled off a corner of her clothes, turned it into a bandage and wrapped it with the wound, and went to bed to rest.

The bed was very narrow and there was only one person to sleep. Although Pu Zixuan was sleepy, he was embarrassed to go up and squeeze into Chen Shuqing, so he rested on the seat next to him. After having nothing to do, he simply went out to stroll around the backyard of the temple.

In the yard, twenty monks were lined up in four rows to practice stick skills. At the back of the team, Tian Jinkun was following the monks' moves and gestures. In the corridor next to him, Tian Yi was observing with a frown.

Tian Jinkun was so energetic that Tian Yi saw Pu Zixuan first and bowed and said, "Hello Master Pu, how is Chen Shuqing's injury?"

Pu Zixuan returned the courtesy and said, "Oh, after taking medicine, it's good to rest, is this?"

Tian Yi said: "Oh, Jin Kun sighed that his kung fu was weak and he was unable to fight against the officers and soldiers. After coming to Lingyun Temple, he kept trying to gain some skills. Although I couldn't tell him what I remembered, it was always a good thing to exercise, so I just stayed here with him."

Pu Zixuan looked at the father and son sympathetically, and had an idea in his heart, saying, "There is another problem I have to say. Even if we can get rid of the monster and restore his memory, Jin Kun has already alarmed the government of the water splashed out of the words, and from then on, he has a secret. I am afraid that if I jump into the Yangtze River and the Yellow River in the future, I will not be able to wash it. Even if I leave Leshan and hide for a while, I will not be able to hide for a lifetime. I have an idea to help you two completely get rid of this disaster. However, this plan requires cooperation from multiple parties. Are you willing to act with me?"

Tian Yi was worried about this matter. When he heard this, he was surprised and happy and said, "Oh? What is Master Pu's trick? I need old friends to cooperate, but it doesn't matter."
