Chapter 499: Puppets


Fortunately, it was only a slight gust of wind, which blew the long hair of the female corpse into a mess, and did not reveal the potentially hideous and terrifying face.

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south."

Just before everyone could react, they heard a Buddha horn, and an old monk in a gray and white monk's robe appeared in front of them.

But the old monk did not speak to them, but walked briskly towards the old tree, and with a gentle tug, he untied the hemp rope tied to the trunk, and as soon as the hemp rope was loosened, the female corpse fell from the tree.

The old monk's movements were very agile, he did not let the female corpse fall to the ground, but walked a few steps quickly, stretched out his hands, caught the female corpse, he held the female corpse without looking at Su Zhi and them, so he hurriedly stepped into the temple and disappeared in front of Su Zhi's eyes.

This series of changes made it impossible for everyone, including Su Zhi, to react.

"Why don't we go back?"

Wu Zhizhen opened her mouth, even if the strange female corpse disappeared in front of her eyes, it could not reduce the fear in her heart, she suspected that she would dream of this female corpse that had hung on the tree when she slept today.

What especially frightened many people was that this was a Buddhist temple, and a female corpse actually appeared.

As soon as Wu Zhizhen opened her mouth like this, many girls responded to it, no matter why the female corpse appeared here or what the origin of the old monk was, they didn't want to pay attention to it, they just wanted to leave here quickly.

Some students had already begun to turn around and walk towards the stone stairs, of course Su Zhi had no problem with this, he felt that it was better to leave for the time being.

But before they left, the old monk had already walked out of the temple gate.

Everyone was slightly stunned, looking at the old monk, the old monk's eyebrows were white, but his eyes were bright, and there were not many wrinkles on his face, so it was difficult to guess his real age.

"Amitabha, didn't scare the donors, did you?"

The old monk asked with a kind smile, his voice strong and powerful.

There was silence for a while, not knowing what to say.

"The one hanging on the tree just now is not a dead man's corpse, but a puppet, and I apologize to you if it scares your benefactors."

The old monk said slowly.

"Puppets?"

Everyone whispered, and when they heard that it was not a dead body, many people immediately felt better, and of course some people were skeptical.

When Su Zhi heard this, he pondered and thought about it for a while, the thing hanging on the tree just now did not have any breath of life, and the long hair covered his face, and his hands were also shrunk in his long sleeves, and he couldn't tell whether it was a real person or a dummy person for a while, but the long white clothes and black cloth shoes that the thing was wearing , but it doesn't look like a modern person's dress, and it's not impossible to say that it's a puppet with exquisite workmanship.

"Master, who hung that thing on this tree?"

Li Jingjing frowned and asked, the abrupt sight just now scared her enough.

Li Jingjing's words said the questions that many people wanted to ask, and the students also looked at the old monk and wanted to hear how the old monk would explain.

"I'm ashamed to say that all this prank was the work of my nasty thug."

The old monk said with a wry smile.

The old monk invited Su Zhi and them into the temple, and explained, it turned out that the old monk Dharma name was lonely, and he was the senior brother of the abbot of the contemporary Blue Rain Temple, he said that he was obsessed with studying Buddhist scriptures and devoted himself to the Buddha, so he rarely accepted apprentices, but in his later years, he accepted an apprentice, and the apprentice was not young, and he was one A middle-aged man in his forties.

The middle-aged man saw through Hongchen and wanted to become a monk, and happened to encounter the void, and the silence felt that it was fate, so he accepted him as an apprentice, but he didn't expect that this apprentice was specialized in making puppet props before becoming a monk Buddha.

But something bizarre happened, and he said that his apprentice didn't know what had happened to him at the bottom of the mountain, and there was a big knot in his heart.

There are always two or three days a month when he is in a state of insanity, and he takes out the puppet he made during his leisure time at the temple to do something extremely abnormal, such as hanging the scary puppet from a tree today.

"The monks are merciful, even if my apprentice has such an unbearable mental disorder, I still can't bear to drive him away, after all, if I really drive him away, he may not be able to live outside."

"But fortunately, his insanity usually only lasts for a day or two, and it doesn't hurt anyone, and I live behind the old temple with him and a few monks in the temple, so as long as you pay attention to it, you usually don't frighten the donors who enter the temple to worship the Buddha." ” "But I didn't expect that it was a sin to scare the donors without noticing for a while."

Speaking of this, he apologized to Su Zhi and the others.

"So that's the case, I'll just say how can there be ...... in the Buddhist temple" Shao Puze originally wanted to say that the female corpse was hanged, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he didn't continue.

It's really scary, we adults are not afraid, but most of them are middle school students, especially my nephew, who is only a few years old, and he was scared and cried by the hanging thing just now.

Wu Zhizhen complained with a straight face, what adults are not afraid of just talking about it, in fact, she was scared straight just now Shiver.

Silence apologized to Wu Zhizhen again and again, Wu Zhizhen also knew that it was useless to blame the old monk, she could only admit that she was unlucky in her heart, and fortunately the old monk came out to explain, otherwise she really thought that she had touched the corpse of a hanged woman, it would be too unlucky.

"Master Void Lonely, I know some medical skills, or you call that apprentice of yours out, and I will take his pulse, maybe I can cure him."

Su Zhi thought for a while and said.

Silence groaned for a while, but finally shook his head slowly, "Thank you for your kindness, every time he loses his mind and goes crazy, he always runs away without a trace, and I don't know that he is hiding in that corner now, I am afraid it will not be easy to find him, in fact, we have also found some doctors for him before, but."

It didn't have much effect, and his illness was still a heart disease in Lao Gao's opinion, and the medicine stone was ineffective. ” "So that's the case, heart disease really needs heart medicine."

Su Zhi refused politely when he saw the silence, so he didn't say more, after all, this kind of loss of heart and madness every once in a month is indeed possible that there may be psychological problems.

Shao Puze and the others knew that Su Zhi still knew medical skills, but they soon remembered that Su Zhi said that he was a herb, and it was not surprising that he knew some medical skills.

"I also hope that all donors will understand, don't spread the matter of this puppet to the outside world, if the reputation of the Blue Rain Temple is damaged because of the old man and my apprentice, then the old man's sin will be great."

Silence spoke again.
