Journey to the West: The poor monk Bodhidharma, the supreme Buddhist and Taoist

Chapter 63: Even if you have a small skill, you dare to play with an axe!
The ancient trees are towering, and the vines hang upside down and criss-cross.

Like a venomous snake.

At this time, the golden crow hung high in the sky and the sun was shining brightly.

But only this piece of woods is raining heavily.

Thick mist steamed up, mixed with billowing monster aura, exuding an incomparably coldness.

Block off the huge ancient vine forest to cover up the confusion, so that people can't see clearly what's going on inside.

"I want to cover it up!"

Dharma snorted coldly.

Run the Dharma Eye to look around.

But in the depths of the ancient vine forest, an old monk with white eyebrows was sitting cross-legged on the ground, wrapped in cassock and protected by Buddha's light.

His whole body was wrapped tightly by countless vines!

Moreover, these vines seem to be alive, and they are getting tighter and tighter.

It seemed that he wanted to strangle the old monk with white eyebrows to death.

"It's him!"

Bodhidharma recognized the old monk with white eyebrows at a glance.

When he was in Bujin Temple, he had seen it before.

"Such an eminent monk who has attained the Tao is actually trapped by the evildoer. It seems that this evildoer has some Taoism!"

Dharma thought.

Although the white-browed old monk has Buddha's light to protect his body, his cultivation will still be depleted if it goes on for a long time.

Let alone Buddhist disciples.

Even if it's just a stranger who has never met, he will not hesitate to help in such a situation.

"Amitabha!"

Bodhidharma flicked his robe sleeves, without touching the ground, like riding the wind.

He broke into this ancient vine forest directly.

Hengke is covered, and it is still faint in the daytime.

A gloomy cold gushed out from the darkness.

It seemed to be enough to freeze the blood in the body.

However, Bodhidharma didn't notice anything unusual.

Don't stop on your feet, drive straight in.

Those branches and vines have already been alarmed.

Countless vines, with faint green light flashing, spread out from all directions rapidly like a giant snake, frantically flocking towards Bodhidharma.

at the same time.

The white-browed old monk also sensed that someone had broken into the ancient vine forest, and suddenly opened his eyes, all radiant.

"No!"

Immediately mobilized boundless mana, intending to break open the vine wrap.

However, countless vines entangled up like chains.

Trapped the old monk with white eyebrows again.

No matter how he used it, he couldn't break free.

"How dare you make an axe with a little trick of carving insects?"

Looking at the green shadows covering the sky, it suddenly turned into a giant python with a human face, with a huge mouth open, and wanted to swallow Bodhidharma in one bite.

Bodhidharma didn't care, and sneered disdainfully.

Even, the body and footsteps did not stagnate in the slightest.

"break!"

The voice did not fall.

The Buddha's light was surging all over his body, as if ten thousand arrows were shot, and they exploded out immediately.

boom!
The seemingly terrifying python with a human face was smashed into pieces by the golden light in an instant.

Green blood splashed all over the sky.

The sharp screams can be heard endlessly.

It's like howling ghosts and howling wolves.

In an instant, the evil wind raged and destroyed.

The entire ancient vine forest, with countless trees, was swaying wildly.

"Damn monk, how dare you hurt my siblings!"

"I want to use your flesh and blood to feed my children and grandchildren!"

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him..."

Followed by.

There was a rapid sound of piercing through the air.

Countless vines rushed up frantically again.

Sweeping like an iron whip.

The momentum is amazing.

Even more terrifying.

These vines all contain demonic mana, enough to crack mountains and rubble, and absorb the essence of living people.

Bodhidharma shook his head, "I don't know how to live or die!"

"Vajra Buddha fire!"

The golden flame, centered on Bodhidharma's body, swept out instantly.

In an instant.

All vines were reduced to ashes.

"Ah! Damn monk, his cultivation is so advanced!"

"This monk is so scary, he is not an opponent, what should we do?"

"Crap! Scrap!"

In the darkness deep in the ancient vine forest, there was a faint whisper of panic.

And the remaining vines, scrambling to be the first, retreated one after another at the fastest speed, like an ebbing tide.

Bodhidharma looked around, "It's not easy for all the spirits in the world to practice. You should cherish your future, but now you are doing the opposite..."

Just finished speaking.

A spirit of subduing demons flew out from between his eyebrows.

Without mercy, he directly wiped out all the monster power in the entire ancient vine forest.

The demonic aura all over the sky dissipated.

A ray of sunlight fell through the gaps in the leaves.

The ancient vine forest immediately became much brighter.

The vines tightly entwining the white-browed old monk also fell off automatically.

The old monk with white eyebrows took a deep breath.

Immediately, he jumped up and put the monk's robe back on his body.

Look around.

The evil spirit of the entire forest has been purified.

The air is filled with the refreshing fragrance of wood leaves.

It is completely different from the previous turbid evil spirit.

One can imagine how advanced the cultivation of the person who saved him was.

"Amitabha, goodness, goodness, thank you Lord for saving..."

Not finished.

Only then did he realize that the other party was also a monk.

Young and handsome.

There is also a sense of déjà vu.

The white-browed old monk couldn't help being taken aback.

"Poor monk Bodhidharma, dare to ask the old abbot's Dharma name?"

Bodhidharma clasped together to ask questions.

"My old man Baiyun..."

Before finishing speaking, Monk Baiyun looked at Bodhidharma.

A flash of light flashed in his mind.

"It's you!"

Monk Baiyun blurted out.

He suddenly remembered.

When staying overnight at Bujin Monastery that night, the Buddha's face he saw was exactly the same as Bodhidharma.

"At such a young age, it is really rare to have attained the first fruition of the Venerable!"

Looking at Bodhidharma, Monk Baiyun smiled and nodded endlessly.

however.

quickly.

Then he discovered something was wrong.

"The aura of Buddhism on this child seems to be more than just the first fruits of the venerable!"

Monk Baiyun was taken aback again.

"This is……"

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically.

"Arhat?!"

Monk Baiyun looked at Bodhidharma in shock, "You were the one who attained Arhatship that day?!"

"Not bad!"

Dharma smiled slightly.

This statement came out.

It was as if a meteorite had fallen in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Monk Baiyun, who suddenly knew the truth, was filled with indescribable shock.

In just one night.

From the first fruit of the Venerable, directly break through the Arahantship!
Such a terrifying practice speed, I am afraid that only the reincarnation of the World Honored One can achieve it!

"It seems that the old monk has lived in the temple for a long time, and his knowledge is a little shallow!"

Monk Baiyun smiled bitterly.

Back then, he was known as a Buddhist genius, but at the age of 40, he had already attained the status of Venerable.

Then he practiced Zen and practiced penance for dozens of years, until now, he has only glimpsed the three fruits of anagam.

Unexpectedly, Bodhidharma in front of him, at a young age of fifteen or sixteen, has already attained Arhat status.

Becoming a Buddha and becoming a saint is just around the corner!
"Sure enough, there are heaven and man outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky!"

Monk Baiyun sighed.

but.

With his cultivation base, he just lamented a thing or two, but he didn't feel jealous.

It soon calmed down.

"Little monk Baiyun, I have met Bodhidharma!"

Monk Baiyun clasped his hands together to salute, with a respectful expression.

Although it is said that there is a sequence, but the cultivation base does not distinguish between ages.

"Don't dare!"

Dharma returned the gift.

Paused.

"Why is the Zen master trapped here by evildoers?"

Not only that.

The golden Buddha that Monk Baiyun was carrying had disappeared.
