Baolizhou has a territory of 300 miles. The terrain is governed by the surrounding mountains and rivers, and it looks like a pear, hence its name. In ancient times, this place was the only way for the vassal towns in the Western Regions to trade with the Han Empire in the East.
It prospered over time. Later, as new roads were opened, the old trade routes were gradually abandoned. However, Baolizhou has grown in size and has not declined. It has always been a prosperous state in the southwest.
In name, Baolizhou belongs to the Han Kingdom in the East, but the kings of the Han Dynasty did not pay much attention to this place. Even now, the chaos in the East is still going on, and no one pays attention to it. On the contrary, it has brought peace to Baolizhou.
The destination of Su Jing and his party is here.
The "trace of evil spirits" is due to something that happened recently in Baolizhou: about fifty years ago, a group of Buddhist monks came here and built a "Temple of Double Joy", and the deity and Buddha they worshiped was called "
"Both are happy with the Buddha". After the temple was built, the monks declared to the outside world that the wish of the gods and Buddhas to have a child would come true if they are sincere.
It turns out that as the monk said, as long as a woman comes to the temple to pray for a child, no matter her age or physical condition, she will have a dark knot soon after returning home. What is even more mysterious is that the pregnant woman does not give birth to one child.
They are twins born side by side.
The twins rejoiced that the Buddha was so efficacious, and the reputation spread quickly. For a time, the temple was flourishing with incense. Many women who could have had twin children came to the temple to burn incense because they hoped to have twin children. There were even pilgrims from the mainland of the East who came to pray for this.
Until one day not long ago, suddenly there was a strong wind at night. When we got up early the next morning, the great eunuchs went to empty the temple, and more than a hundred monks had disappeared. It was nothing if the monk just left. The real fatal thing was that one night,
Up and down Baoli Island, a total of more than 800 pregnant women were missing.
Without exception, all missing pregnant girls have gone to Shuangshuang Huanxi Temple to pray for a child. Local people now recall that in fact, cases of missing pregnant girls began to occur in Baolizhou as early as the arrival of Fan Seng, but there were fewer cases.
, it has never attracted anyone’s attention.
This was the information that Su Jing and others had received before arriving at Baolizhou. Unexpectedly, things on the ground had changed again: it had been fifty years since the completion of Huanxi Temple, and countless twins had been added to Baolizhou.
Starting three days ago, all the twins in the state, ranging from sixty-year-olds to infants, who came to pray in front of the evil Buddha suddenly began to kill each other. One moment they were close siblings who grew up together, shared secrets and shared hardships. The next moment
Suddenly they became enemies with different ties, fighting each other to the death for no reason.
Some were discovered by their family members and separated the two in time; more others killed each other until one of them was beaten to death.
Some monks from nearby caves or sects arrived at Baolizhou before Su Jing. One of them, a middle-aged man named Hong Shiyu, seemed quite prestigious. It was he who told Su Jing about the twins killing each other.
Waiting for others.
Tianyuan Chongna frowned at the unheard-of evil thing: "Even evil spirits will not harm people for no reason. There must be hidden motives."
Su Jing felt helpless after hearing the old Taoist's nonsense. He didn't answer his question and said directly: "Let's go to the temple first."
"Everyone, please follow me." Hong Shiyu led the way, and many righteous monks rose into the sky and flew towards Shuangshuanghuanxi Temple. On the way, Su Jing asked Hong Shiyu about the cultivating forces around Baolizhou, but he did not get any useful information.
This place is far less beautiful than the Eastern Land, and the cultivators who settled nearby are not very popular. At least they don't seem to have the ability to commit such a major case. You must know that making the petitioner conceive twins is "tampering with family relationships".
It can be concluded that Fan Monk's magic is extraordinary.
Flying as fast as the wind, it didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the place. It was called a 'big temple', but its scale was mediocre. It might not even be considered a third-rate temple in the Eastern World. It surrounded dozens of acres of land with high walls.
There is no Heavenly King's Hall, Bell Tower, and Drum Tower on the front level, and there is no Buddhist Hall and Sutra Pavilion on the back level. There is only a solitary Mahavira Hall and a few rows of Zen rooms.
The local officials knew what was going on and immediately sent troops to protect the evil temple after the strange case broke out. Only then did it avoid being destroyed by the angry people, thus retaining the opportunity to find clues for subsequent investigations.
Everyone stopped in front of the Sanjie Gate, and most of them frowned: the color of this temple is white, from the roof tiles to the stone steps leading to the door, everything is white.
It's not the crystal clear Beijing white, not the divine whiteness, but the paleness - a dull, cold paleness like the skin of a dead person.
"It turns out that's not the case. Although this temple is simple and simple, it is also painted with red gates and golden pillars, and has a golden roof and colorful buildings. It is quite colorful." Hong Shiyu explained to his colleagues who came from the East: "But a few days ago, I don't know,
Why, this temple suddenly started to fade. It wasn't peeling off or washing, it was just losing its color visibly to the naked eye, even the plaque on the top of the door was no exception. All the colors were slowly fading away, and it became what it is now in less than two days.
look like.”
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the crowd, and Su Jing somehow aroused the protective red flame. Now Su Jing can control the red flame as he pleases, only igniting flames that are more than an inch long around his body.
It affects the people around you.
Everyone, including Mr. Fang, was a little puzzled by Su Jing's body protection. Tian Yuan Chongna simply laughed out loud: "Did Fellow Daoist Su be a little too cautious? Please rest assured that the old Taoist has already activated his spiritual consciousness to scan it several times. There is no need to worry about this."
There are evil spirits. Even if there are righteous sects with the same Qi Lianzhi, but poor Taoists still have the breath of life, they should work hard for you."
The latter sentence is just a statement of grandeur, but the former sentence is absolutely true. Not only did he admit it, but every monk who came to the temple used his five senses to carefully examine the surroundings and confirmed that there was no life here. As for the paleness of the temple, it was just a visual impression.
It's just a bit of a shock to people. It looks scary, but it's actually not threatening at all.
Su Jing ignored the old Taoist and said to Fu Su and Fang Xianzi: "This temple is gloomy, so be careful." It was exactly the same as the feeling when he found the gloomy mountain in Qixi Mountain. This is the reaction of Yang Fire to Yin, and it is related to spiritual consciousness.
, the detection of the five senses was completely different, only Su Jing himself felt something was wrong, others, even if their cultivation was far better than his Chong Na, Fu Su did not notice.
Mr. Fang was always obedient, so he responded: "Thank you, great uncle, for your advice!" He pinched his hand and the fragrance filled the air. He showed his peach blossom branch in front of him to protect it, and looked around with bright eyes, as if a demon would leap out at the next moment.
Fusu came out; Fusu was not as serious as Mr. Fang, but he turned over his plain hand and found a butterfly lying on his white palm. The colorful wings of the butterfly were really beautiful.
Most of the other monks shook their heads. This is no wonder. Almost all the disciples from the Zhengdao Sect are young disciples. They are proud and unwilling to show weakness in front of others.
Tianyuan Chongna was even more enthused. He laughed and strode in through the door.
The main hall is extremely high, and the dome is five feet above the ground. There are no Eighteen Arhats in the hall, and there is no Guanyin Master. The person sitting behind the Huanmen, under the treasure cover, is not the golden body of Buddha, but a freak: sitting with his legs crossed,
The upper body is straight, but four arms stretch out from the body, and there are two heads on the left and right above the shoulders. The two heads look at each other, so worshipers can only see the side face of the evil Buddha.
The two sides are looking at each other and smiling. The smiles are cheerful and friendly. Although the shape of the evil Buddha is weird, it does not look scary at first glance. On the contrary, it makes people feel that these two 'brothers' are close and friendly, and they can't help but follow suit.
Smiling with 'them'.
The area of the main hall is not small, but it is empty and almost clear at a glance. Many monks walked back and forth several times and searched up and down several times, but could not find any clues.
Su Jing did not participate in the search, but stood in front of the altar table and looked up at the evil Buddha statue. After a while, he waved to Fu Su: "Come and take a look for me."
Fu Su floated closer, standing half a step behind Su Jing and facing him: "I will receive the instructions from my great uncle."
"It doesn't have to be so formal." Su Jing smiled, then turned to the topic and pointed at the evil Buddha: "Look at the two of them laughing, are they really so happy?"
Fusu raised his eyesight and looked at it carefully for a moment: "Just looking at this statue, it does look harmonious, and it smiles very happily."
Su Jing shook his head: "I always feel something is wrong." The scorching sun shines all over the world, above the earth and under the sky. Where is there no sunshine in this world? Practicing the Golden Crow Yang Fire not only refines the life and death of fire, but also refines it.
A pair of divine eyes that discern fine details like sunlight.
After watching for a while, his mind suddenly changed. The Heavenly Fire Wings appeared from behind, and Su Jing slowly levitated.
The height of one foot above the ground is different, and the position of the two Buddha heads where the light is refracted also changes. Looking at the expressions of the evil Buddha's two heads, they actually change with the change of light. Both sides have no smiles and look at each other coldly.
.
Whether this change was caused by magical carving or magic, Su Jing couldn't tell.
The fire wings moved again, Su Jing rose another foot, and the expressions on the two faces changed again in his eyes. They all turned into grinning teeth and ferocious eyebrows. The two heads of the same body glared at each other, as if they would bite each other at any time.
It’s as if the overwhelming hatred in my heart can be wiped out by not being angry with the other person!
That ferocious look made Su Jing's heart tremble. But when he flew higher, after more than two feet, the evil Buddha's head returned to a warm smile, and he was full of peace and harmony!
No matter whether the evil Buddha is smiling or angry, in the end it is just a clay statue, and it seems to be of little use in tracking down the evil spirit. However, Su Jing still refused to give up and stared at the evil Buddha slowly up and down. This was only because he had treated Fusu before.
The 'something's wrong' refers not only to the expression, but also to the vague coldness and evil coolness on the statue. Just as he was looking more and more fascinated, Su Jing suddenly saw the two faces facing each other at the same time.
Take a look for yourself!
The clay statue could not move, let alone turn its head to stare, but the evil Buddha really looked at him: Su Jing could clearly see that the other person's gaze was alive, leaking out of the corner of the evil Buddha's eyes.
The demons haven't left yet, at least they still have 'eyes' left behind, observing every move outside!
Su Jing averted his eyes in time and did not make eye contact with the evil Buddha. I know you are looking at me, but you don't know that I know you are looking at me.
Neither surprised nor horrified, Su Jing's expression did not change at all. He was completely unaware of the evil Buddha's eyes. After a moment, the evil Buddha's eyes quietly moved around to look at other cultivators in the hall.
After a while, Tiandu's fire wings converged, and Su Jing fell back to the ground. Fu Su took two steps and said, "Uncle Master, did you find anything?"
Su Jing shook his head: "It's nothing. It looks normal no matter what. Let's go."
Seeing Su Jing shaking his head, Tianyuan Dao said to him: "Seeing that fellow Taoist Su has been flying up and down for so long, you noticed something fishy. It turns out you are looking for everyone's happiness!"
There was an "evil Buddha" staring at him above. Su Jing naturally did not fight among himself. He smiled, took Fu Su and Fang Xianzi and walked out of the hall. Unexpectedly, Chong Na suddenly smiled "hey": "Fellow Su, if you have looked at it enough
, such evil Buddhas who harm people no longer need to stay in the human world!" After saying this, a blue light shot out from his sleeve towards the evil Buddha statue.
Su Jing was shocked and quickly stopped him: "No!"
But there was no time. With a muffled sound, the statue of Evil Buddha was smashed to pieces by Chongna!
