The moon was dark and the wind was high, and on the mountain path, Lin Wei walked in front with his lantern, and the monkey followed triumphantly in a newly bought shirt.
After walking for a while, a person ran in front of him, it was Fang He who was carrying a firewood knife.
"Master, there is a ruined temple in front, and I am afraid that there will be no one for more than ten miles around, so I can only settle there tonight."
Fang He was very respectful to Lin Wei, not only because Lin Wei took care of him three meals a day, but also because just a few days ago, he officially apprenticed to his teacher and learned Taoism like a monkey.
So, the monkey became his brother.
Originally, this kind of path-finding thing was done by monkeys, but this guy likes to play music the most, and he likes to pay more attention to seniority than people, Senior Brother Monkey said a word, Fang He could only run by himself.
However, Fang He was not the slightest bit unhappy, his ability in the past few days can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds, if he is a little more powerful, maybe he will meet the monk that night again, he can avenge the host and his parents.
Fang He is to live, to eat, to learn skills and revenge.
Lin Wei is in order to get this errand done, maintaining the Buddha lamp day and night is not something that anyone can do, just like holding a mountain, most of the Dao methods can't be used, and he has to be careful, fortunately, he has expected this situation for a long time, so he taught the monkey to be a master, as long as he acts in a low-key manner, the general small problems can be solved with monkeys.
In the past few days, Lin Wei has found a lot of temples and temples, but unfortunately all of them have been destroyed, Fang He has inquired, here, including many surrounding cities and counties, almost all of them have been cleaned by the believers of the Black Lotus Buddha, don't accept the temples and temples, even the powerful Buddhist cultivators can't find it.
Most of the people I can meet are ordinary people, and there are also some Buddhist cultivators, but I can't count on them, and more are thieves who rob homes and houses.
Actually, if you can meet some Buddhas, you just have to ask them to preach a word.
But obviously, the Buddha realm is even more chaotic than Lin Wei thought.
Fang He didn't know much, what Lin Wei had experienced in the Buddha world in this year was not clear, those ordinary people only knew that the original temple was gone, and it was replaced by a temple that believed in the Black Lotus Buddha, because of this, Lin Wei acted very low-key, and it was definitely not a good thing to provoke these followers of the Black Lotus Buddha.
Because it takes most of the cultivation to maintain the Buddha lamp, Lin Wei can't fly in the clouds, not to mention how far he can walk in a day with a pair of feet, out of the realm that Fang He is familiar with, the two of them are a monkey, one is counted as one, and they are both black-eyed.
Lin Wei was also worried, could it be that he really had to go out for a year and a half to hand over the Buddha lamp to the Buddha The monkey must be hungry, its stomach has been barking all the way, and some wild fruits along the way have also run into its stomach, Fang He is about the same, Lin Wei knows that he can only go here today, let's rest first.
After a while, he saw the ruined temple that Fang He said.
The broken temple is definitely not broken before, and the scale is not small, there is a blue brick wall, there are three in and three out of the courtyard, there are two Buddha halls alone, there are Buddha halls next to it, there is a Zen room in the back, there should be no problem with living twenty or thirty Buddha cultivators.
But now it's deserted.
More than half of the wall has fallen, the Buddha hall has collapsed, the wind and rain and the sun have not been in shape, and the wood inside is rotten, and a layer of moss has grown.
Fortunately, the Buddha hall in front is still in good condition, and the Buddha hall and Zen room on both sides are also collapsed and rotten.
And when you enter this Buddha hall, you can see that the Buddha statue in the right position has been smashed to pieces, and the head is gone, so you can't see which Buddha it is.
There are rags everywhere, and there are some straws, and it seems that some people come here to stay overnight on weekdays.
In the past few days, Lin Wei has been sleeping in the open air, so naturally they don't care if they are comfortable here, it is enough to take a temporary rest.
Fang He found some dry firewood from the outside and lit it, and the monkey ran out, with a few pheasants and a fat rabbit in his hand, this ability to catch things, no one else can compare to this monkey.
Lin Wei glanced at it and said, "Yes, it's baked."
When the monkey received the order, he was immediately overjoyed, plucked his fur and peeled off his skin with Fang He, and roasted it on the fire with a branch, and after a while, he smelled the fragrance.
"Master, you eat first" Although the monkey has not been wild, he understands the rules very well, and his mouth has already flowed water, but he still holds back and hands Lin Wei a roast chicken first.
Lin Wei is not polite, just take it and eat it, his immortal body, he naturally does not need to eat these mortal meat on weekdays, but now he needs to maintain the Buddha lamp all the time, the consumption is very great, eating a little can replenish his strength, Lin Wei will not refuse.
As for whether he shouldn't eat meat after cultivating Buddhism, Lin Wei didn't think about it at all.
The Black Lotus Buddha killed thousands of people without blinking his eyelids, and it made the war in the Buddha realm raging, and the people were not happy, if you want to say that he broke the precepts, he is more powerful than himself, but look, everyone calls himself the Buddha, so it is all some indifferent things, what do you do so much.
Of course, Lin Wei also knows that serious Buddhist cultivation does not eat meat, and any living being has spirituality, and he does not want to be treated as food in other people's mouths.
As soon as Lin Wei ate, the monkey and Fang He over there also began to eat, and at this time, Lin Wei heard movement outside, and after a while, the monkey also heard it, and finally Fang He heard it.
Under the moonlight, more than a dozen fierce men with knives walked in outside, and several of them were carrying a few black pockets, which seemed to have people inside.
These men looked like thieves at first glance, and their faces were hateful, and when they came in, they saw people in the temple, and they immediately looked at them with unkind eyes.
Lin Wei and the three of them, who had long been surprised by this, ignored these thieves at all and ate by themselves.
"Big brother, look, two people, and a monkey wearing human clothes, in this wilderness, it must not be a good thing, that monkey looks very evil, behaves like a human, shouldn't it be a monster" A thief over there carried a knife and whispered to a strong man beside him.
The strong man was obviously the leader of these people, and they were also murderous and ruthless, but they would not ask for trouble.
If there were three ordinary people here, they would have cut them down without saying a word, and maybe they would have been able to make a little benefit, at least they would have eaten a meal of roasted human meat, in fact, if they hadn't seen that strange monkey like a human, they would have done it a long time ago.
But with that monkey, they hesitated.
"Forget it, you also said it, the monkey looks very evil, don't care about them, take a look first, if it's hard stubble, then go their own way, if it's a fat sheep that pretends to be, kill it, it's an eyesore."
The bandit leader whispered, and more than a dozen bandits understood and did not approach Lin Wei and the others, but rested on the other side.
