Starting from the Abandoned Disciple in Laoshan

Chapter 14 The Three Treasures
Shen Mo grasped the key information from Yuanxin's words, "the sound of a wooden fish" and "as if my heart was blown away." It seems that Yuanxin's current half-dead state is inseparable from the sound of the wooden fish.

Half-dead means that Yuanxin's body is almost dead, and half-alive means that he can still act and think like a living person.

There was no heartbeat, and his breathing was cold. As a martial artist, Yuan Xin didn't feel that there was anything abnormal about him at all, and he didn't feel surprised at the gesture he showed when he opened his brows and bloody eyes.It seems that he has three eyes, which should be commonplace.

This fact is very strange.

In the eyes of a madman, a madman is actually a normal person.

A sentence flashed through Shen Mo's mind.

Isn't he an outlier now?The center of the circle is also a different kind, or a different kind transformed by some kind of magical power.

The center of the circle led the two into the pagoda.

Yuanyi suddenly condensed her voice into a thread, which was transmitted to Shen Mo's ears.

"There's something wrong with Senior Brother Yuanxin, you can see it too."

After the joy of the rest of her life, Yuanyi came back to her senses and noticed something wrong with the center of the circle.

It's just Yuan Xin's behavior, as if he didn't notice his own abnormality, Yuan's intention was out of compassion, and he couldn't bear to expose it.

Shen Mo nodded slightly, and replied, "Since it's here, let's settle down and watch the changes."

The strangeness of the center of the circle, on the contrary, made Shen Mo have deeper expectations for the secret of Moha Temple.There might be the answer he was looking for in this pagoda.

In fact, if you think about it from another angle, if the center of the circle can act and think normally, but the breathing is cold and the heartbeat is abnormal, what can it mean?
What exactly is "alive"?
Shen Mo has a different understanding of the definition of "life" than before.

Under the pagoda, there is actually an underground Buddhist hall. A stone door is opened, and the sound of chanting sutras echoes in the hall.This stone gate is not simple, it actually completely isolates the sound of chanting inside.

In the hall, glazed lamps and sandalwood are lit, surrounded by clouds and smoke, and a famous monk seems to be sitting on a cloud, reciting scriptures, looking solemn and solemn.

And the elders in the center enshrine a shrine behind them.

A Buddha statue with a strange smile is enshrined on the altar, like a half inverse of the swastika character, holding a scroll of scriptures.

If Shen Mo read it correctly, the style of the scriptures was obviously the same as the scriptures held by the old monk in the altar, except that it was not made of human skin.

The Buddha statue is not any Buddha statue that Shen Mo is familiar with, and it looks very strange.

The monk's robes on his body are not solemn and beautiful, but full of antiquated flavors. The facial features of the Buddha statues are carved with some weird characteristics. When they are pieced together, people can't remember the appearance of the Buddha statues.

To be precise, the sculpture of the facial features uses a special structure, which under the light shows a sense of flow, full of unpredictable changes.

The slit between Shen Mo's brows opened by itself, and his ferocious blood eyes protruded, and the half reverse-shaped swastika drawn at the corner of the Buddha statue's mouth reflected the bloody eyes between the brows and kept spinning.

The sutra sound from the hall entered Shen Mo's mind in a language and rhythm that he had never heard before.

Gradually, the bloody eyes between Shen Mo's brows leaked drops of thick ink-like sticky blood.

An indescribable statue appeared in Shen Mo's mind, which was the visualization god of Laoshan Shangqing Inner View Method.

The coolness is like cool rain falling on the sea of ​​hearts.

Shen Mo came back to his senses, his brows and bloody eyes closed, and the oozing blood rolled down on the floor of the Buddhist hall and disappeared immediately.

The surging power gushing out from the Buddha statue just now aroused Shen Mo's fear.

The chanting in the Buddhist hall stopped.

The vision just now shocked the monks in the temple.

"Donor, but you feel the Dharma?" Yankong's voice sounded without emotion.

Shen Mo looked at Yankong, the opponent's cultivation was not bad, but unfortunately he still hadn't broken through that shackle, and even the chance was slim.The time to refine the gods has to be before the physical body enters old age.

Once missed, there is no chance to open that door unless there is a means to restore youth.

Without refining the gods, the world you see is only appearance after all.

Therefore, even though Yankong knew that there were infinite treasures to be excavated in the Buddha statue behind him, he had no way to start.

"What is the origin of the Buddha statue in this temple?" Shen Mo asked back.

Yankong pondered slightly, as if he had made up his mind, and then said without hesitation: "Mahe Temple has undergone major changes, and I don't know if it can survive the catastrophe. The benefactor saw the Buddha and had this vision. It seems that there is a predestined person. There are some secrets. The old monk will not hide it anymore, so as not to bring it underground in the future, and no one will know about it."

He glanced over every monk, landed on Yuan Xin, paused for a while, finally landed on Yuan Yi, sighed softly, and continued: "For thousands of years, everyone has known that this temple is a Moha Temple, but in fact it is not It is the original name of the temple, but everyone is used to calling it, so it has been used all the time. It is the same in life, some things that are agreed upon, if broken, will bring bad results, so this agreement even if some Deviations are wrong, and no one is willing to correct the source."

Shen Mo understood, Yan Kong was hinting, don't tell the truth about the current state of the center of the circle, otherwise it will bring bad results.

A person is normally alive, and suddenly someone tells him one day that he is not a living person, but a dead person, which will bring terrible consequences. Maybe he will really die from then on.

Yuanyi naturally understood this verse, and he silently glanced at Yuanxin.

Just like Yuanxin often observed him before.

Things in the world are wonderful, within just one day, the roles of the two seem to have changed.

Yankong's voice continued to resound gently in the main hall, "More than 1000 years ago, a founding general of the previous dynasty built this temple. The reason for this was not to absorb the incense of believers, but to worship the Three Treasures. Therefore, this temple was originally No. Sanbao Temple.

One treasure is a wooden fish, the other treasure is a Buddha statue in the main hall, and the last treasure is a volume of the Prajna Sutra.The wooden fish disappeared after a certain abbot of this temple passed away.We encountered a catastrophe today, and the sound of the wooden fish woke us up, and we were expected to be still in this temple.

As for the Prajna Sutra, it has always been mastered by the abbot of this temple.There are very profound and subtle practice methods, but if you don't have real great wisdom, you can easily suffer backlash when practicing the Prajna Sutra, or even become completely enchanted. Therefore, even if you hold the Prajna Sutra in your hand, the abbots of all dynasties have set rules, and you are not allowed to read the Sutra. text, not to mention the contents of the practice scriptures.

Abbot Yanfa was originally in the prime of life in spring and autumn, so he would not have passed away at this age, presumably it was because he practiced the Prajna Sutra in private.It's just that when I saw his dharma body, I didn't see the Prajna Sutra.This matter is likely to become another unsolved case in this temple. "

Shen Mo suddenly interrupted Yan Fa, and asked aloud, "Master, are the scriptures in the hands of the Buddha statue carved according to the pattern of the Prajna Sutra?"

"I haven't seen the Prajna Sutra, but if I think about it, it should be." Yan Fa focused his eyes, and then asked, "Could the benefactor have seen it?"

"Indeed, I have seen it. I am an outsider, and I have a festival with your temple. You may not believe me if I tell you. It is better for Master Yuanyi to tell you about this matter." Shen Mo didn't intend to hide the matter of the altar in the dungeon, that ghost thing was too much. It's weird, since he came to the pagoda to find the answer, it's better to say it out to get more information.

Yuan Yi stepped forward and clasped his palms together, and briefly talked about the dungeon.

Yankong and several elders around him looked at each other and exchanged eyes for a moment, then chanted the Buddha's chant together, with a layer of deep sorrow in their voices, and finally Yankong sighed, "Brother Abbot, you are seeking skin with a tiger."
