I'm looking for longevity in Liaozhai

Chapter 13 Lanruo Temple Millennium Old Sophora
"It's not bad to pass this, the goal has been achieved, and you can be satisfied." Wang Zhe said in his heart, he is a person who is relatively easy to be satisfied.

Xiaoman can!

After all, people cannot be resurrected after death, so it is good to get more money.

He has also heard some rumors about the county magistrate in the past two years, and they are all about corruption and breaking the law.

He also thought about killing the county magistrate, but who can guarantee what the next one will look like?What's more, he has been working in the Yamen for the past two years, and the county magistrate is not useless, he is still doing his duty.

In the afternoon, Wang Zhe was chatting with Lao Hou on the street when he suddenly saw two monks coming up the street ahead.

One was a little older, about 50 years old, more than six feet tall, thin, with a sad face, and the other monk was in his 20s, more than seven feet tall, with delicate features.

"Monk, a monk from Lanruo Temple?" Wang Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly.

There is an ancient temple named "Lanruo Temple" in the forest thirty miles outside Guobei County. There are more than [-] monks in the temple.

It was this temple that made Wang Zhe temporarily dispel the idea of ​​leaving this small county, and it lasted for two years.

No way, it's too famous.

For this reason, he specially went to visit the "Lanruo Temple", which was located in the mountains with lush forests. It looked like a quiet ancient temple, and behind the temple was a long stretch of deep mountains and old forests.

He also specifically asked the monks in the temple if there were any special features in the deep mountains, such as mountain spirits, wild monsters, strange rocks and strange trees.

An elderly monk told him that there was an old pagoda tree in the mountain. It had grown for an unknown number of years, and it was tall and luxuriant, quite extraordinary.

Hearing this, Wang Zhe's heart skipped a beat.

"Tree Demon-Grandma!" He almost shouted directly.

At that time, he thought about burning the old tree with a torch, but when he got to the back mountain and took a look at the big tree, he gave up that idea.

The canopy of that big tree was as big as half a temple, with luxuriant branches and leaves, covering the sky and the sun.

Surrounded by trees, it looks like the moon is surrounded by stars.

A quiet path in the forest, it seems that the monks in the temple stepped on the back mountain after a long period of time.

When he approached the ancient tree, for some reason, he always had a strange feeling that the big tree was "watching" him, which was so weird!
At that time, he had an idea that this big tree was the "grandmother" in "A Chinese Ghost Story".

It's just that "Lanruo Temple" hasn't been broken yet, and he hasn't become a monster yet.

Then Wang Zhe went to the temple immediately, found the abbot of the temple, talked about the matter, mentioned his worries, and told the old monk that the old tree would become a ghost in the future and endanger the world.

But the old monk told him something like "Buddhism is merciful, all things have spirits, and it is not easy for that big tree to grow for thousands of years. Moreover, there are Buddhist blessings from eminent monks here, so there will be no monsters."

Huan Wang Zhe has a predestined relationship with Buddhism, so he might as well enter Buddhism, get rid of the sea of ​​suffering, and reach bliss early.

Wang Zhe was so angry that he wanted to take the wooden fish mallet and open the head of the old monk.

"I'm telling you a monster, you want me to become a monk, is it plausible?"

Before going down the mountain, Wang Zhe went to the old monk again to remind him that the old monk was still calm and breezy.

"Beware of the day when you wake up and become fertilizer!"

On that day, Wang Zhe was very worried. At that time, he realized that he might be in a world similar to "Liao Zhai".

After going down the mountain, he decided to nest in this small county town first, use his "cheats" to develop slowly and steadily, and go out to have a look when his skills are almost ready.

However, in the past two years, I occasionally heard some legends of ghosts and monsters, and the world is generally peaceful.

It seems that the "grandmother" dryad will not appear in a short time.

Seeing these two monks, Wang Zhe's thoughts drifted away for a while.

"These monks don't recite sutras well in the temple, what are they doing down the mountain?"

"That's Zen Master Guangyun from Lanruo Temple!" Lao Hou was taken aback when he saw the old monk.

"Guangyun, are you famous?"

"Of course, a famous monk near Kuaiji! Don't you know?"

Wang Zhe shook his head. In fact, he knew the old monk. He had a chat with him at "Lanruo Temple" last time.

When two monks passed by them, the elder monk Guangyun suddenly stopped, looked at Wang Zhe, and walked in front of him after a while.

"Amitabha, has this benefactor ever been to Lanruo Temple?"

"Master has a good memory. He has indeed been there and met him face to face." Wang Zhe said with a smile.

He has not seen many monks, but this monk has seen many pilgrims. It is really not easy for Zen Master Guangyun to remember him.

"The benefactor has a predestined relationship with my Buddhism."

This sentence again? !

Wang Zhe's face darkened.

"I don't have a relationship with your Buddhism. Have you seen that there is more than one person who has killed people with a knife. The "Chunxiao Tower" over there is a regular visitor."

Wang Zhe patted the knife on his waist, and pointed to the "Chunxiao Building" not far away.

"Amitabha, my Buddha also used to slay demons and eliminate demons, killing life to protect life, and the almsgiver hasn't let out any vitality. Even if he went to the land of wind and moon, it's just a play on the occasion, right?" The old monk said with a smile.

"The monk's eloquence is really good. Why don't you come down to the mountain after reciting scriptures in the temple?"

"The county magistrate sent someone to the temple, saying that some arresters wanted to do a ritual ceremony for them because they wanted to protect the people going west. Brother abbot ordered me to go down the mountain."

As soon as Wang Zhe heard it, the county magistrate seemed to be terrified. He invited monks from Lanruo Temple to save the souls of the dead?
"The benefactor possesses the power to subdue demons, and he also has the heart to subdue demons. I hope that the benefactor can stick to the righteous way and benefit the common people." Zen Master Guangyun said.

"Monk, let's practice the method quickly, don't make the county magistrate wait in a hurry." "Welcome the benefactor to visit Lanruo Temple."

"No, no, behind your temple is a deep mountain and old forest, and there is a thousand-year-old tree, which may become a spirit one day, so be careful, don't chanting scriptures to kill yourself." Wang Zhe said a little He waved his hands impatiently.

"Thank you for the reminder, benefactor." The old monk saluted with palms together, then turned and left.

"What did the two of you just say, what is it that subdues demons and becomes a spirit?" Lao Hou asked suspiciously, he could not hear the words between Wang Zhe and Zen Master Guangyun just now.

"The old monk wants to persuade me to go to Lanruo Temple to become a monk."

"That can't be done. Before your father passed away, he specifically told you to carry on the family line and spread the branches and leaves. This old monk is not authentic. You must not have such thoughts!"

"You don't have to worry about that. How can I become a monk after being a fast catcher? But this old monk has some skills!"

Wang Zhe stared at the back of the old monk, his eyes were shining. He looked at the old monk with the method of "watching Qi", and there was a yellow light on the old monk's body.
