Chapter 39: The Buddha


Outside the gate of Yizhuang, Shen Wanquan looked calm, but he was extremely nervous and his back was soaked.

He was worried about what Lin Yuanshang would find out.

However, after Lin Yuanshang walked out of Yizhuang, he didn't say anything and left directly.

Just left like this "Find a grave and bury the body."

One of the servants said to the magistrate before leaving.

You can imagine how wonderful everyone's expressions were at that time.

"The behavior of people from these aristocratic families is really strange and cannot be inferred by common sense."

Wang Fugui's father was speechless and shook his head as he watched the group leave.

False alarm Shen Wanquan looked weird for a while, and suddenly became ecstatic.

After returning home, he told Shen Lian what had happened.

Shen Lian was speechless for a while, he didn't expect it to be like this.

Yes, who would have thought that this life-and-death disaster would be so easy to get through, and all the back-ups that had been painstakingly prepared before were not even used.

Then he went to Yizhuang and after looking at the corpses, he realized that Lin Yuanshang didn't care about the death of Lin Yuanshou and Lin Xiuping at all.

He came here for the poison in the corpses.

"After the Gu Master dies, the Gu will also die.

Over time, the orifice will collapse and cease to exist.

Before that, as long as the Gu does not die, it can be obtained by other Gu Masters."

In the small courtyard, Mo'er sat opposite Shen Lian and said softly: "People from aristocratic families value Gu more than anything else, including family ties.

This Lin Yuanshang is also a foreigner.

In the struggle for power and profit, it is inevitable to have enemies.

He has some feuds with Lin Yuanshou.

Naturally, he will not delve into the cause of Lin Yuanshou's death.

He may be happy to see it.

Compared with this, Lin Yuanshang cares more about what he can get from this trip.

From your description of the smile on his face when he left, it seems that he got the poison that is not dead yet.

Otherwise, he might find some excuse to extort a sum of money before leaving. " Shen Lian let out a long sigh of relief.

At that time, he was worried about what would be found when someone from the noble family came, so he did not touch the poison in the corpse.

Thinking about it now, it was still the right thing to do.

The Shen family escaped death and survived another disaster.

Moreover, he didn't get nothing.

In addition to forging the iron jade Gu, he also obtained the Yin people's treasure, the Food Heart Gu.

The only trouble is that this Gu feeds on human hearts, so it has to get a human heart to feed it every half month.

To sum up, this was Shen Lian's first confrontation with a Gu Master.

The danger and treachery in it were beyond description in words, and it allowed him to see the tip of the iceberg of the Gu Master's world.

"Mo'er, what are your plans next?"

Mo'er's body in Yizhuang was an unknown body that died in the wilderness.

The real Mo'er was completely free after this disaster.

"Back to the young master, Mo'er is also an orphan and homeless.

You are my savior, and Mo'er is willing to follow your arrangements.

If you don't dislike Mo'er, Mo'er is willing to serve you for the rest of his life."

Mo'er knelt down on the ground. , lowered his head and said extremely seriously.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand and said, "If you are sure you want to do this, I can give you a sum of money so that you can live a free life.

Why bother being a slave?"

Mo'er knelt down firmly on the ground: "Mo'er is helpless, please take me in."

Shen Lian was silent for a moment and said: "In that case, then you can stay with me and start over.

However, you can no longer be called Mo'er, so you can change your name to Bailing.

How can I hope that the rest of your life will be like Bailing?"

As happy as a bird.”

Mo'er was overjoyed and said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Master, for giving me the name.

From now on, this slave will be the master's lark."

At this time, Sun Yuanxiang came.

Bai Ling resigned wisely.

"Old man" Shen Lian stood up and helped Sun Yuanxiang sit down.

Sun Yuanxiang recovered well.

When he sat down, he glanced sideways at Bai Ling who was leaving, and sighed meaningfully: "Young Master, it is too dangerous to keep this woman."

Shen Lian understood the meaning of these words, which was to persuade him to kill someone and silence him.

Bai Ling, who had been under Lin Yuan Shou's hands for three years, was definitely not as pure as she showed.

She knelt down and begged Shen Lian to take her in, which was obviously a well-thought-out way to protect herself.

In fact, if Bai Ling showed any intention of leaving just now, Shen Lian would immediately kill her and end everything.

Shen Lian sighed and said: "Old man, in a few days, I will set off for Ronghua City and officially enter the circle of Gu Masters.

Bai Ling is well-informed and I need talents like her around me."

"It's good that the eldest son knows what he's doing.

I'm just reminding you."

Sun Yuanxiang thought for a while and stopped trying to persuade him.

The main reason was that he felt that the eldest son was too intelligent to be able to control a woman.

Shen Lian nodded, glanced at the birdcage hanging under the eaves, and said, "Only the lark in the cage can sing about the blue sky and white clouds.

I believe there is also poetry and distance."

Dry Mountain, the mountain is majestic and majestic.

This mountain is located to the north of Ronghua City, with the Weishui River at its back, and an important transportation route.

It has a unique geographical advantage.

There is an ancient temple on the mountain called Kushan Temple.

There are more than 200 monks, big and small, in the ancient temple.

From a distance, you can hear the sound of Lang Lang Buddha.

It is so loud that it makes people feel peaceful.

“Good mountains, good water, good temples” Xie Zhen traveled here and looked up at the dry mountain in front of him, feeling that everything was changing.

Rao Shi has been traveling around mountains and rivers for many years and has seen a lot.

He was also conquered and amazed by the wonders of dry mountains.

Not long after, Xie Zhen entered the ancient temple and looked around.

The temple was brick by tile, simple and thick, with vicissitudes of time and thousands of years of precipitation pressing against his face, which made people feel awe.

"I have been traveling here, and I wonder if I can stay here for one night."

Xie Zhen asked a monk with a gentle smile.

The monk replied: "Donor, there is a rule in this temple.

Any layman who comes here can have free food and lodging for three days, but he must offer no less than five taels of incense money to my Buddha."

Xie Zhen touched his pocket, couldn't help but feel ashamed, and said with a wry smile: "I am short of money, only two taels."

The monk thought for a while and said: "You wait here, I will ask the abbot for instructions."

Thank you very much.

After a while, the monk left and came back, saying: "The abbot said that there are many free Zen rooms in the temple, and the donor can have room and board for three days.

However, this temple only has simple meals, so please be mentally prepared."

Xie Zhen never cared about this and hurriedly gave him only two taels of silver.

Then the monk led him into a Zen room and told him the rules of the temple, which places he could go to, which places he couldn't go, etc.

After the monk walked away, Xie Zhen scanned the Zen room and found many classics on the bookshelf.

He was delighted and took them over to read carefully.

This was Xie Zhen's first contact with Buddhist scriptures, and he couldn't help but be deeply attracted by Buddhist concepts such as "saving all sentient beings from the sea of ​​suffering", "persuading people to do good", and "reincarnation of cause and effect".

It was as if he had received some kind of baptism.

He forgot to sleep and eat, and completely forgot himself. .

Before I knew it, three days flew by.

In the abbot's room, Master Kongming, who had a snow-white beard, sat cross-legged on the futon, closing his eyes to meditate, pinching Buddhist beads in his hand, and moving his lips up and down.

Just then With a creak, the door was pushed open.

"Master Master" The person who came was a sturdy monk with a fierce face, who seemed to be stuttering.

"Jueyuan, why are you so flustered?"

Master Kongming asked without opening his eyes.

Monk Jueyuan held his breath for a long time before he could finish his sentence: "Buddha's heart Gu suddenly glowed."

"What" Master Kong Ming suddenly opened his eyes and shot out a frightening light.

His expression changed drastically.

His calmness and calmness disappeared in an instant.

He hurriedly got up and rushed to the treasure pavilion. boom The moment the door of the Treasure Pavilion is opened, the room is full of brilliant light, just like the true Buddha has descended, shining brightly and being sacred and great.

The light came from within a Buddhist niche.

Master Kongming rushed over and hugged the Buddhist niche.

His expression was extremely complicated, ranging from shock to panic, as well as a bit of anger and jealousy.

"The awakening of the Buddha's Heart Gu means that there is a Buddha around, and a Buddha is about to be born in Buddhism."

Master Kongming's expression was uncertain, the light in his eyes was changing rapidly, and the wind and rain were like darkness.

He hugged the Buddhist altar tightly and did not relax.

After a while, he suddenly laughed miserably.

"Why Buddha Heart Gu, I have worked hard to raise you for more than fifty years, feeding you with blood every day, and persisting, but you still refuse to recognize me as a son of Buddha.

Why am I not worthy of you?

Why are you willing?"

I shine for others, but I don’t want to take another look at me.”

"Okay okay"

Master Kong Ming's expression was ferocious, twisted like an evil ghost, showing a bit of madness.

"Don't blame me for being unjust if you are unkind.

I will kill every Buddhist disciple you choose.

Until you are refined by me, you only belong to me."

Master Kongming turned around suddenly, "Jueyuan, has anyone been near the Treasure Pavilion today?"

Jue Yuan thought for a while and said viciously: "Fa Neng, he was on duty today and came in to clean up."

"Fa Neng is the little monk who has only been here for a month.

Well, he does have good understanding and deep connections with Buddhism.

It's a pity."

Master Kongming sighed indifferently, winked, and drew his hand in front of his neck.

Jue Yuan understood the idea, nodded, and then turned around and walked out of the Sutra Pavilion with a murderous look on his face.

As soon as I went out, my nose felt sore, and I bumped into a great monk who was sweeping the floor.

Jue Yuan was startled and rubbed the bridge of his sore nose.

When he took a closer look, it turned out to be a mute monk.

This man was poisoned in his early years and became homeless.

He was taken into the temple by the abbot and was responsible for carrying water and sweeping the floor.

The mute monk lowered his head and swept the floor, as if the whole world had nothing to do with him.

Jue Yuan didn’t know if the mute monk had heard the conversation he had just had with his master or if the secret had been leaked.

But then he thought about it, so what if the mute monk heard it?

Who else could he tell?

So, Jue Yuan only glared at the mute monk, then left quickly, took a rope, and walked to Fa Neng's room.

Faneng was a young monk, only seventeen years old, with delicate features and bright eyes.

When he saw Jue Yuan standing outside the door with a rope in his hand, he was stunned for a few seconds and said curiously: "Uncle Master, what are you doing?"

Jue Yuan sneered, stepped into the door, closed the door with his backhand, and then put the rope around Faneng's neck and tightened it hard.

There was a fierce whine in the room, mixed with the sound of a bench falling to the ground and a teacup breaking.

After a while, everything became quiet
