Chapter 390 I am the Great Compassionate Maitreya Bodhisattva
The thousand-meter-long giant corpse Buddha sits cross-legged on the edge of Cishi. The Buddha's aura emanates from his pores as if he is breathing, showing the force of a tornado.
With such a huge body, mortals are like ants in front of it.
When Ren Qing was swallowed into the belly of the giant corpse Buddha, he was still thinking about what the scene would be like. It couldn't be a world of its own, right?
He was unable to perceive any situation other than the clone, but he didn't know that it was just as he guessed.
Buddhism is the force that best utilizes souls. One leaf and one bodhi, one flower and one world. The countless souls contained in the Buddhist aura can build a unique ecological system in the blink of an eye.
In the stomach of the giant corpse Buddha.
The environment seemed extremely dark, with only a faint light covering the streets, and the mortals walking through them could be seen as skinny as a stick.
Mortals are all wearing monk's robes made of rags. Compared to the harmony and calmness of heaven, their expressions are extremely numb.
His eyes were filled with uncontrollable fear, and from time to time he would look at the huge shadow in the darkness in the distance.
At first glance, the whole town looked like there were hundreds of thousands of monks, but the atmosphere was extremely numb, and a sense of helpless despair enveloped the whole city.
In heaven, the Buddha's energy will drive away the negative emotions in people's hearts, satisfy their desire for food, and maintain their physical needs.
But this is not heaven. This is the "Buddha among Buddhas" where the aura of the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva is enshrined. The aura of the Buddha is bound in an immortal golden body. How can there be any Buddhist aura that can relieve worries?
The Buddha within the Buddha seems to be buried deep in the ground, and it shakes from time to time, making people feel frightened.
Wu Nian lay numbly on the street corner.
His eye sockets were sunken, his gums were purple-red bloodshot, and only the slight rise and fall of his chest and abdomen could be seen in front of his skin-covered body.
Wu Nian doesn't know why he came to the Buddha in the Buddha, but he understands that the meaning of his existence is to maintain the immortality of the Buddha's statue.
And just outside the city of Buddha in Buddha, there are thousands of statues of Buddha.
boom!!!
A loud noise was heard outside the city, indicating that another statue of Buddha appeared.
There was a voice in Wu Nian's heart that kept repeating, urging him to go to the Buddha statue, but his body no longer had any strength.
There are tens of thousands of monks in the Buddha without even a grain of food.
Under the erosion of hunger, all the strength in Wu Nian's body was gradually withdrawn, and he soon closed his eyes tightly, and his vitality disappeared.
Until shortly after his death.
The corpse twitched violently, with cracks opening in the chest and abdomen.
The newly reborn Wu Nian took off the remains of his original body, but his heart remained calm as he walked quickly outside the city like a zombie.
This is what the Buddha within the Buddha constantly experiences.
Life cannot live, death cannot die.
In order to maintain the giant corpse Buddha from collapsing, the Buddha's energy resurrected a large number of mortal souls, completely serving as worker ants in the ant nest.
Worker ants are responsible for all the heavy lifting in the nest and rarely need to eat.
Wu Nian stiffly followed the crowd towards the open space outside the city. Although his new body would no longer suffer from the pain of hunger, he knew that it was only temporary and there was no way to avoid hunger.
All the monks are repeatedly starving to death, rebirth, starving to death...
Wu Nian also tried to commit suicide in advance, but reincarnation is indeed endless, and no matter how hard he struggles, it is all in vain.
The simply built altar was placed in the open space outside the city. The strong smell of blood filled the air, and thousands of monks had already gathered around it.
Wu Nian could also see that the surface of the altar was covered with a thick layer of blood, indicating that countless monks had died on it.
The structure of the altar is similar to a stone mill, with grooves left on the edge, and blood will flow into the barrel along the grooves.
An old monk stood on the altar and recited scriptures. People around him were not interested in listening, and they were all silently waiting for the end of the ceremony.
After the old monk finished speaking, he casually nodded to a few people.
They walked to the center of the altar without hesitation, then closed their eyes and knelt on it until a young and strong monk came forward with a butcher knife.
"Rebirth in bliss, rebirth in bliss..."
The monk said words that he didn't even believe, and he raised his butcher knife and chopped it off with all his strength.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Suddenly, more than a dozen heads with relief expressions rolled down, and blood spurted out, flowing from the grooves into the barrel, causing it to quickly overflow.
In the blink of an eye, the monk was reborn and his body turned into withered bones.
"The Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva is above..."
Wu Nian chanted the name of the Buddha, and the despair in his heart became more and more intense.
"Wu Nian!"
When he heard the old monk's call, he couldn't help but open his confused eyes. The latter motioned Wu Nian to the "Buddha Forest" filled with Buddha statues.
Wu Nian nodded, picked up the barrel, and headed to the Buddha Forest with the other monks.
The basis of their belief in the Buddha among Buddhas is to enshrine the statue of the Buddha. Naturally, the Buddha's aura will not make the monks think of rejecting it.
Wu Nian and the others were not walking very fast, for fear that the blood in the barrel would be spilled out, and they would have to use their own blood to make up for it.
In front of the statue of the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva, they are only about the size of a toe and cannot even look up to see the statue.
The beheadings were still being repeated on the altar behind. After all, there were countless Buddha statues in the Buddha Forest, all of which needed blood to stay alive.
Wu Nian sighed deeply, and then came within the range of Fulin, and felt the looming Buddha's aura directly.
The statue's skin is covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and there is a faint golden light inside.
If the statue is not watered with blood, the cracks on the surface will become larger and larger, and eventually the statue of Buddha may collapse.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to pour blood, the monks couldn't help but get closer to the statue of Buddha.
They continuously breathed the Buddha's breath through their mouths and noses, and their devotion to the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva was born in their hearts, and hunger and disease were immediately driven away.
Buddha's energy can make them temporarily forget their pain and troubles, and it is only thanks to Buddha's spirit that the monk's soul does not completely collapse.
Wu Nian did not choose to absorb the Buddha's energy.
He poured the blood on the soles of the Buddha statue, and looked at the Buddha statue like a sponge touching water, swallowing up all the blood in the blink of an eye.
Wu Nian walked towards the depths of the Buddhist forest, and soon his figure disappeared under the cover of the Buddha's aura.
The Buddha statues are all the same, and the slightest difference is almost imperceptible.
I wonder if the monks of the Buddha in the Buddha deceived themselves. There was an inexplicable rumor before, and many people even believed it.
It is said that among the countless Buddha statues in the Buddhist forest, one is transformed by the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva. Only by finding the true body can one escape from the sea of suffering and go to the Western Paradise.
Therefore, monks search for the true body in the Buddhist forest every day, but unfortunately they all return in vain.
Wu Nian came to the depths of the Buddhist forest by accident, muttering "The Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva" to himself, and wandered aimlessly.
Unknowingly, he lost his way and ended up crossing the entire forest.
"The Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva is above..."
At this moment, Wu Nian suddenly noticed that there was an unusual statue of Buddha, and couldn't help but stare at the statue.
His face was full of excitement, and he stumbled to the foot of the Buddha statue.
Although the appearance of this Buddha statue looked normal, its chest was rising and falling, and the sound of its heart beating could be faintly heard.
Wu Nian thought it was the true form of the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva and quickly knelt down in front of it.
He kept reciting scriptures, his heart full of expectations to escape the sea of suffering, and banged his head heavily on the ground.
The thoughtlessness lasted for several days, and the feeling of hunger came to my heart again.
From the initial hope to confusion, the movement of the Buddha statue became lighter and lighter, and finally disappeared.
During this period, several monks came to pour blood and persuade Wu Nian to leave the Buddha Forest, but the latter stared at the Buddha statue like a maniac.
Just when Wu Nian was about to die, a crisp sound suddenly sounded in his ears.
Click, click, click...
The cracks spread on the surface of the Buddha statue, and soon even the Buddha's energy dispersed, but it was absorbed by the other Buddha statues.
The commotion in the forest was so great that tens of thousands of monks looked towards the source.
A similar thing happened some time ago. At that time, the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. They thought that the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva was born.
The result was that a Buddha statue in the forest collapsed.
Only Wu Nian faced the drastic changes happening in the statue of Buddha, and watched helplessly as a huge man emerged from the body of the statue.
"The Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva is above!!!"
He finally knew that the rumors were true. It turned out that among the countless Buddha statues, one was indeed the incarnation of the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva.
Dust flew up, covering the forest.
Ren Qing moved his joints. Although he used the ability of the storyteller, his body and soul actually became invisible and parasitic on the host.
But after living as a parasite for a few days, he felt unparalleled pressure.
Now that Ren Qing has arrived at the stomach of the giant corpse Buddha, his mood can't help but feel relaxed, and he doesn't want to use Storyteller again in a short time.
He couldn't help but look around.
Ren Qing immediately noticed the monks who were only as big as ants and the towns that were a hundred times smaller, and immediately understood the layout of the Buddha's energy.
As immortal golden bodies, statues of Buddha are containers for storing the energy of Buddha.
But after all, the immortal golden body was created by alienation from mortals, and its strength was far less than that of a magical weapon. In order to prevent the container from being accidentally damaged, the body of the monk who was conceived was simply reduced.
Moreover, Ren Qing could see that the Buddha's energy did not take a form similar to that of heaven.
It's possible that they don't want to waste Buddhist energy on monks, just to keep them reincarnated, and completely treat them as tool people.
It doesn't matter even if the monk loses his soul because of this. Anyway, the souls collected by the Buddha's energy are probably tens of thousands and cannot be exhausted at all.
Ren Qing's figure gradually emerged, and he was soon noticed by tens of thousands of monks from the Buddha in the Buddha, who exclaimed in surprise.
"The Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva is above!"
However, except for Wu Nian who watched Ren Qing emerge from the statue of Buddha, the other monks did not regard him as the true form of the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva.
Ren Qinggang wanted to take action, but then his expression changed drastically.
Buddha Qi clearly noticed something strange in his stomach. Each Buddha statue exuded Buddha Qi, and a huge amount of Buddha Qi surged in the direction of Ren Qing.
The sound of wooden fish banging and the loud chanting of scriptures sounded out of thin air.
This vision, in Wu Nian's eyes, confirmed that Ren Qing was the Great Merciful Maitreya Bodhisattva, and it also made tens of thousands of monks look shocked and confused.
