Li Huwei was startled after hearing Jin An's words.
Is there such a thing as Li...
Is there such a thing as Li...
He chewed it several times, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his face showed joy.
"Okay, okay, Li should be like this, hahaha."
In the gloomy tomb passage, Li Weiwei laughed heartily.
As expected, Guard Li, who is bent on defeating evil and acting as his headless corpse king, has a lot of nerves.
Jin An: "?"
What a god Li Ying is.
Several black lines hung down Jin An's forehead, and he almost couldn't hold back and gave Li Guards a few fat beatings again. Was it because he thought they were not dangerous enough and wanted to attract the sleeping bloody roots around them?
After being glared at by Jin An, Li Huwei realized that he was in trouble and shut up, but he still secretly laughed in private.
Reunited with old comrades, although the identity of Guard Li who was disguised was not revealed, the atmosphere in the team was much more relaxed and the morale of the team was much more relaxed due to the 10 or 20 strong cavalry guards in the tomb passage. Under their familiarity and guidance, the group of more than 20 people
The rest of the journey will be uneventful.
Gradually go deeper underground in the tomb passage.
Along the way, he did not forget to leave marks for the captains and sharpen their swords for them.
In the dark tomb passage, there is no concept of distance or the passage of time, and I don’t know how far I have walked in the tomb passage. Suddenly, the Feng Shui master who was the most powerful in the tomb stopped everyone again, and there was another movement ahead.
people?
There are many people?
After listening to Mr. Feng Shui's reminder, everyone who was a little numb walking in the tomb became energetic and wondered if the captain and the others were in front.
Logically speaking, the largest number of people going to the tomb this time were them.
As expected.
After walking about a hundred steps in the dark in the tomb passage, a different building finally appeared in the same tomb passage. It was a stone hall made of stone strips, like a Hades palace.
The flickering light of torches could be faintly seen in the Hall of Hades.
"Good guy, the roots of the soul-nurturing trees around this underworld palace are as thick and big as his grandma's, and they are denser than anywhere we have walked along the way." Daochang Chen exclaimed.
The cavalry guard said at the right time that as long as you don't take the initiative to stimulate or approach these soul-nourishing tree roots, nothing will happen to them. They didn't encounter any danger when they came.
Unless stimulated by blood, these soul-nourishing tree roots are in a peaceful sleep.
There was a fire swaying in front of the Hades Palace, as if many people were walking around holding torches.
When Jin An stepped into the Hades Palace, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
The old Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and then sighed regretfully.
This Palace of the Underworld is the center of the burial pit. On the stone walls around the Palace of the Underworld, dense caves have been carved, and in each cave there is a mummy nailed to death by hands and feet.
The hands and feet of the mummies were nailed alive here. Look at the clothes on the surface of the corpses. Although those clothes have been corroded for thousands of years, they are tattered and covered with dust. The identity of these corpses can still be seen through some fine patterns on the clothes.
The status is certainly not low.
Every corpse in the cave is wrapped with soul-nourishing tree roots.
In the center of the Hades Hall, there are several pits separated by carved dragon guardrails. When you get closer to the guardrails, you can see that those pits are full of human mummies.
These mummies were all slaves who built the mausoleum. They were thrown in like animals and stacked in disorder to form several mountains of corpses.
These are all burial pits!
One, two, three...
At a rough count, there are nine burial pits.
If there are hundreds of corpses in each burial pit, there are thousands of corpses in this palace of Hades alone. These are living people who were sacrificed and placed on soul-nourishing trees.
And sacrificing so many people to the soul-nurturing tree was just to achieve a slim hope that a person could be resurrected after a thousand years.
"This underground tomb passage is very large. We accidentally found this Hades Palace through a robbery hole. There are two Hades Palaces with exactly the same specifications in other directions."
"The Teng Kingdom existed thousands of years ago in an era when hundreds of vassal states were at war. In that era, wars were raging, and large areas of crop land were deserted. The vassal states were fighting against each other everywhere. The people were in dire straits, and human lives were as worthless as grass roots on the roadside. The lords
There are wars between countries every year, and many people die every year. All the soldiers are dead. In order to preserve their glory and wealth, the leaders of the princely countries begin to forcibly recruit civilians. Farmers go to the battlefield. These people go to the battlefield and it is basically the same as sending them to death.
, once captured, they would be tortured with ink, have slave marks tattooed on their faces, and live worse than animals. And after the country fell, their fate was also very tragic. Either the city was massacred, the people's families were destroyed, and the young men were killed.
They were branded as slaves, and their wives and daughters were reduced to military prostitutes. Most of them would die of torture before they could survive long."
"The more wars and chaos there are, the less valuable the lives of ordinary people are. Even if they don't die at the hands of the major vassal states, sooner or later they will starve to death on the roadside and starve to death (piǎo) all over the fields."
Hey, even Li Wewei, who was very nervous and had unreliable jumps along the way, such as the hyperactive Li Wewei, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh at this time, and it was rare for his temper to calm down.
There are so many innocent dead bodies in the Hades Palace. As soon as one steps into the Hades Palace, it seems as if hundreds of innocent souls are coming out of the burial pits and caves. They seem to be crying with their dark mouths open.
The hardships of life and the pain of family destruction and death.
The piles of corpses in the Cave of Thousand Corpses can also be explained by the fact that the corpses of people who fell into the water and drowned in various places over the past thousands of years were washed into the Cave of Thousand Corpses by the current, and that is why the piles of corpses today are there.
But the victims in these burial pits in front of us are all living people. Whose husband, father, and son were they pushed into the burial pit alive, just because the owner of the tomb needed the victims to be buried with him.
Looking at these inhumane burial pits and the particularly developed root system of soul-nurturing trees in the burial pits, the atmosphere in the team was a little dull.
The Hall of Hades is very big.
They followed the firelight to find the people in the Hades Hall, and unexpectedly saw three eminent monks from Bailong Temple painting Buddhist scriptures on the stone walls of the Hades Hall.
Those Buddhist scriptures are all written with golden body powder. The characters are dense and the shapes are thin and muscular. They have the majesty of the Buddha's salvation of all sentient beings, but also the ethereal years of the Buddha.
These Buddhist scriptures are shining with golden light and the Dharma is condensed.
They are all based on the lifelong Buddhist practice of three eminent monks.
The more scriptures are written, the golden light of the Buddha in the Hades Palace becomes stronger and stronger, and the breath of peace sweeps away the resentment, hatred, hostility, evil spirit, and yin energy in the Hades Palace and the burial pit...
I observe Ksitigarbha's majestic power, and it is impossible to say that the eons of sand in the Ganges River will be exhausted. A single thought of seeing, hearing, observing, and paying homage can benefit mankind and heaven in immeasurable ways.
If you are a man, a woman, or a dragon god, you will fall into the evil path after all your retribution. If you sincerely take refuge in the body of a great master, your life span will be extended and the obstacles of sin will be eliminated.
Those who have lost the love of their parents have no idea where their souls are. Brothers, sisters and relatives have not known each other since they were growing up.
The body of the great bodhisattva may be sculpted or painted, and the bodhisattva will look upon it with sorrow and reverence without leaving it for a moment. If his name is recited for three to seven days, the bodhisattva will appear in boundless form.
…
…
"Little brother, this is the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra" that Buddhism uses to save people's sins. It can eliminate countless sins and help people go to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss."
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has made a great wish: 'Unless hell is empty, I vow not to become a Buddha until all sentient beings are saved, and only then can I realize Bodhi'."
The old Taoist priest explained something to Jin An.
Although he is a Taoist priest.
But this does not prevent him from contacting some monks and knowing some Buddhist classics.
"These three eminent monks are using the great incense and incense power accumulated by Bailong Temple over the years to selflessly save these suffering martyrs, so that they can escape from the sea of ​​suffering and ascend to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss."
The old Taoist priest said in awe.
The three eminent monks of Bailong Temple, who had been immersed in writing Buddhist scriptures, heard the voice of the old Taoist priest. They turned around and saw Jin An and the others as if they were awakening from a dream.
"Taoist Jin'an, Taoist Chen, great, you are all fine." The three eminent monks of Bailong Temple were overjoyed.
When they saw so many cavalry guards following Jin An, the three eminent monks of Bailong Temple were very surprised. When they learned about Jin An and their experiences along the way, the three eminent monks of Bailong Temple sighed with emotion.
He continued, saying that the captain would be very happy to see that all the Cavalry Guard brothers were still alive and well.
Jin An turned around and looked around, but did not find Du Wei and Xi Jian, so he asked about their whereabouts. The abbot of Bailong Temple smiled and told Jin An not to be nervous. Du Wei and Xi Jian were both safe.
They met one after another in this underworld palace. Duwei and Xiejian were worried about Jin'an and his friends' safety, so they searched for Jin'an and his friends nearby. The three of them were left here to write "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra" with the golden body of a Buddhist monk.
》.
Now that they have found the lair of the soul-nurturing tree, they plan to quell this ten-thousand-year-old soul-nurturing tree to eliminate the permanent problem, so as not to leave a root of trouble that will continue to cause trouble for thousands of years.
Hearing that Jiajian was alone with the captain.
To be continued...
