Chapter 58: Golden Body Blocking the Door
They were all monks from other places, so Lao Zhao and the little monk naturally teamed up with Master Lu and his friends. Master Lu was indifferent to fame and wealth, claiming that money and treasures were all external things, and that he was mainly here to exorcise demons. Of course, if he got any benefit, it would not be wrong to give him a little as a token of appreciation.
Strictly speaking, Zhao Yushu didn't have much motivation to participate in this matter. He had a lot of money, but Old Zhao had more. No matter how many treasures he had, they would never be in the academy. This kind of thing would do him no good.
But Zhao Yushu knew that he had to participate. He could survive for a while, but not for his whole life. The most serious thing was that his cultivation level increased in a completely different way from that of a normal cultivator. He couldn't play the game of the Sword God of Shilipo, hiding and surviving until he reached the maximum level before coming out to bully the weak.
You must participate in various events to find magic weapons
Of course, it would be faster to ask the academy for help, but it would still be a matter of relying on others and exposing the biggest secrets to others.
The people in the academy can be trusted, but what if someone accidentally lets something slip?
Another reason was that he and the little monk got along well. He gave him silly spores to eat and taught him how to draw circles. How could such a simple-minded person go to rob money and treasures by himself? He must be led by the experienced Zhao Yushu.
Now that the decision had been made, the six of them decided to go to Mr. Wang's house to register. However, it was already late, so they found an inn to rest for the night, and then set off early the next morning.
On the way, Master Lu asked a question cautiously: "May I know your Dharma name, Senior?"
The young monk thought for a while and said, "My previous Dharma name is no longer valid. I haven't thought of it yet."
Master Lu and the other four were stunned
The young monk thought for a moment and said, "It's not good to have no name at all. Please help me think of one. Oh, by the way, I haven't asked for your name yet."
Master Lu was even more stunned. Did he choose the wrong person? These two people didn't seem very reliable.
Zhao Yushu thought to himself that you finally remembered this: "I am Zhao Yushu, a native of Xijing, and I have traveled around. As for your name, monk, since you think so many precepts are unreasonable, why not just call yourself Bujie?"
"Bujie? Bujie, good, very good. Well, fellow monks, from now on I will be called Bujie." Monk Bujie put his hands together and bowed to the four monks from other places.
Master Lu was shocked and quickly responded: "I am Yuan Zhen from Fenglin Temple in Luonan. These three are my junior brothers Yuan Zhi, Yuan Qing, and Yuan Hai. I am honored to meet Senior Brother Bu Jie and Donor Zhao."
Zhao Yushu responded: "Excuse me, I see that all of you brothers have very strong bodies. I wonder if it has anything to do with your skills?"
Yuan Zhen nodded: "My temple mainly practices the wrathful Vajra Dharma."
Wow, angry King Kong, sounds very strong, physical demon removal expert
The three junior brothers didn't talk much, just acting as strong brothers behind Yuan Zhen, Master Lu. Although their cultivation was not high, just from the appearance, these four people gave people a sense of security.
Relying on this sense of security, the six people received a very grand reception at the government office.
"Isn't it the Wang family who issued the reward? Why do we have to come to the government office to claim it?" Zhao Yushu was puzzled.
The person in charge of receiving the few people was the yamen's legal advisor. After hearing this, he hurriedly explained: "You don't know, the immortal, but in the Wang family, several people die every day. Although the notice has been sent out, if they continue to die like this, they will probably die out before the immortals arrive. Our local masters can't just watch the Wang family die out. After all, they are big pilgrims. Isn't this a slap in the face?" As he spoke, the legal advisor slapped himself on the face a few times.
“So, several temples gritted their teeth and divided the dozens of members of the Wang family into groups. Each temple took a few people back and placed them directly in the main hall. The monks in the temple chanted scriptures day and night to see if they could fight against the ghost, um, the ghost Buddha.” Speaking of the ghost Buddha, the master obviously hesitated, as if he didn’t know whether it was appropriate to use the word "ghost" in front of the Buddha.
"You know what, this ghost Buddha was stopped for several days. As long as the sutras were chanted in the temple, it could not enter the temple gate. It went to a different temple every day. Several times, the golden statue was seen sitting directly at the temple gate, but could not take a step forward."
Zhao Yushu clapped his hands: "Great! Now it's under control!"
The master laughed bitterly, "My God, this ghost Buddha doesn't get tired, but the masters do. The temple chants sutras continuously for twelve hours. It may be able to hold out for a day or two, but how can it stand for a long time? The masters tried again and again, and it took at least eighty-one monks to chant sutras to stop it. I don't know how many people died in order to get this result."
The four monks of Fenglin Temple sighed in unison and chanted Buddhist mantras. Monk Bujie also sighed: "Even if we rotate them, it has to be at least 50-50. I'm afraid there aren't many temples that can have more than a hundred monks."
The master patted the armrest of the chair and said, "That's right. The masters have no choice but to gather everyone together. Now they are all staying in Longmen Temple. Some temples are dissatisfied and have sent some disciples down the mountain to meet this ghost Buddha."
Oh, those local tyrants I saw in the Fobuzou Restaurant
Zhao Yushu thought for a moment and said, "I remember this place is not far from Xiangjiang Temple in Dongdu. Didn't you ask for help?"
The master showed a trace of embarrassment: "The abbot of Longmen Temple is also an immortal. I heard that his cultivation is very high. Who dares to invite him if he doesn't give the order?"
Again, face is more important than life. Besides, it seems that this ghost Buddha is not uncontrollable, so the local monks are still hoping for the best.
After registering at the government office, which was actually just a greeting, the six of them went out and headed for Longmen Temple.
"Master Bujie, I have a question." There is one thing Zhao Yushu still can't figure out.
"Ask if you have any questions", you are indeed the little monk
"This ghost Buddha is probably an evil ghost cultivator with some cultivation. However, he borrowed the golden body to kill people wantonly. Having some cultivation does not mean he is invincible. If the external scene doesn't work, he can find the internal scene. There will always be someone who can control him. Why does he dare to be so presumptuous?"
Monk Bujie pondered for a moment and said, "First of all, I am not sure what it is. Secondly, if it is really like what the donor said, I think it has something to do with the local Buddhism, and it is a very close relationship."
I know this too. Zhao Yushu wanted to complain but held back.
"I think it knows the upper limit of the local Buddhist practice. Maybe it is actually a Buddha itself," Bujie said lightly, which made Lao Zhao feel a little creepy.
"Let's not talk about this for now. You'll know when you get there. Brother Yuanzhen, I think there's something wrong with this ghost Buddha. I'm afraid it can't be broken by brute force. You should think twice."
Yuan Zhen touched his bald head and said: "We brothers have long put life and death aside. If there is any danger, Brother Bujie, don't worry about us, just do it."
Bujie nodded: "Then I know."
What do you know? Tell me. Seeing Bujie's mysterious look, Zhao Yushu finally held back his doubts.
Longmen Town is not big, and Longmen Temple is not far away, but Longmen is a holy place of Buddhism. As the largest temple in the area, Longmen Temple is naturally very popular, and is no less popular than Xiangjiang Temple, the first temple in Dongdu.
However, the six people did not see a single pilgrim along the way. A thought came to everyone's mind. When they arrived at the temple gate, their worries became a reality.
A golden Maitreya statue was sitting in front of the temple gate with its back to a few people.
