Chapter 108: The Old Bell (Belated Happy New Year)


It was late afternoon.The red sunset lined with golden glazed tiles should have been a lively and splendid place, but unfortunately the clouds were extremely low and the wind was extremely cold, and the sunlight passed through the clouds, coating everything in heaven and earth with a layer of cold gray.At the top of Ye Mountain, there is a deserted and secluded courtyard somewhere in the Thousand Buddha Temple.At this time, the grass and trees elsewhere are still green, but the trees here are withered and yellow, and the leaves are all over the ground early."

Rustle."

The fine bamboo tips scraped the bluestone slabs, but it was a sprinkled monk who was cleaning up the fallen leaves alone.He turned his back to the courtyard gate, and he couldn't see clearly, but he could only see that his body movements dragging the broom were quite uncoordinated, and if he looked closely, he was still twitching slightly from time to time.Don't you have a disability?"

Senior brother."

Suddenly, a childish voice sounded, and a small monk leaned out of the courtyard gate.The monk paused when he heard this, and turned around slowly."

I just went up the mountain, I don't know the way, today I came out to find the master, but I accidentally got lost......"

The little monk was quite afraid of life, hid most of his body behind the wall, and did not dare to raise his eyes to look at the monk, lowered his head and only cared about talking, but did not see - the face of the monk who turned around, one eye was bent with a smile, and the other was open to the corner of his eye, and the bloodshot eyeballs were like rats trapped in a cage, and they couldn't stop spinning."

I didn't see any other senior brothers along the way, and I don't know where I went......"

The little monk was still bowing his head and recounting, but the monk was approaching step by step.The monk walks in a strange way, always stepping forward with one foot and dragging the rest of his body forward, as if there were two separate spirits living in the same body.The monk maintained this strange posture and approached the little monk step by step, but the little monk didn't notice it at all, and only knew how to bow his head and speak.Finally.This strange monk stood in front of the little monk, and the bent eye suddenly opened, and he didn't bow his head, only his bloodshot eyes were pulled down, staring at the little monk.Then, the five fingers curled into claws, and reached out to the top of the little monk's head......

"Oh!

”Suddenly, there was a strange scream in the courtyard.A figure jumped down from the wall, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and with a "bang", the knot struck the monk's head to pieces.The monk didn't snort a word, and fell to the ground.The sneak attacker stood firm, gasped for several breaths, and then raised his head, revealing an old face full of folds, it was the old monk who had realized, and the little monk was naturally benshan."

Move fast."

The old monk relieved himself and didn't say a word, and rushed to the courtyard gate with an arrow and picked up the wind.And the little monk also hurriedly squatted down, first took out a kettle, and as soon as he unplugged it, it was a foul smell that pungent his nose.This spicy smell, the things in the kettle don't need to be guessed, the elegance is called "golden juice", and it is commonly said to be dung water.The little monk was unceremoniously, opened the monk's mouth, and gave a big mouthful.After pouring it, he said "offended".He took a coil of rope from his back and turned the monk over, but before he could tie his hands and feet, the monk's limbs trembled, and then he twitched strangely, and the hanging wire like a puppet on the stage was twisted into one place.The little monk panicked, the first few times, there was no such moth!

He didn't know what to do, so the monk pressed his hands and his feet when he moved.That's when it happened."

Click."

In the sound of broken bones, the little monk's wrist tightened, and he panicked to see that it was the joints of the five fingers of the monk's hand that were reversed and buckled his wrist.Before I had time to scream, it was "click, click, click......", like a malfunctioning gear.He followed the sound and saw that the monk's face suddenly turned to the back, and the little red hair grew and spread rapidly on his face.The chaotic eyes suddenly stopped, and the red pupils in the black were aimed directly at Benshan, and the little monk's breathing suddenly stagnated, and his mind was blank."

Get out of the way!"

There was a break in his ears, and he dodged.The bluestone with the size of the millstone roared down, and the monk's increasingly hideous head in the center was like crushing a rotten egg, and in the crisp click, the red slurry that was as sticky as snot splattered all over the ground.Beside him, the old monk put away his throwing posture, put his hands together, lowered his eyelids and recited a few verses of the scriptures."

The corpse is deep, but there is no help."……………………………… Looking at the monk's corpse, the little monk was a little sluggish for a while.Will I be like this?

No!

No!

No!

As soon as this thought arose, he quickly shook his head, and I had vomited out the corpse blood......

Although the method is not very beautiful.He couldn't help but look at the corpse again, and secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, it was the master who found me first last night.Remembering the scene of last night, it immediately appeared in front of my eyes - under the waning moon, in front of the boiling cauldron, the monk slit his neck and squeezed out the viscous blood......

This situation is terrifying enough, but Master even said that the culprit of all this is actually ......

At that time, Ben Shan's mind only had a sentence from Uncle Nan, who looked like a bandit."

Our three ancestors are first-class monks in the world, if they are demons, they are first-class demons!"

Alas!

The little monk patted his head and looked at my crow's mouth.……………… Just as Benshan was thinking about it, the old monk had already walked to the other end of the courtyard, where there was a garden arch, which was tightly blocked by the door.The old monk pushed the door with his hand, but next to the door, he suddenly stopped his movements."

Benshan ......" he called softly, and the little monk came back to his senses and replied blankly."

What?

Master. ”The old monk did not look back."

Remember the way up the mountain?"

Benshan didn't hesitate: "Remember." ”"Do you remember what I told you about the changes in the temple?"

This question, the little monk hesitated and did not answer, not that he forgot, but inexplicably panicked in his heart, he caught up with the master, reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, lowered his head and did not speak.The old monk noticed his apprentice's actions, but he still didn't look back, but just asked in an accentuated tone."

Remember?"

The little monk's mouth shook, but he still answered."

Remember......

Get. ”"That'll be fine."

The old monk laughed, but said a word again."

Then go down the mountain!"

The little monk's eyes widened suddenly."

Master?!""

Ami......

Alas. ”The old monk was about to sing the Buddha, but he sighed halfway through the words."

I have my duty, but you also have your mission......" said Enlightenment, and after a pause, he turned around and touched his apprentice's small round head, with love in every fold of his face."

Don't worry, you go down the mountain, I'll come later."…………………… The old monk stood for a long time, watching the little monk turn around and gradually disappear one step at a time, and then turned around and pushed open the courtyard door.There is no courtyard behind the door, only a whole piece of mountain rock sticks out of the cliff, supports a platform, and sets up an unpretentious octagonal bell pavilion on it, in which hangs a bronze bell full of green rust.The old pavilion, the rusty bell, the deserted fall on this mountain rock, the gray and old seem to be integrated with the mountain stone, not like the temple behind the rich and exquisite, the whole look, it is like a brocade on a piece of coarse linen.But it is this piece of coarse linen that stood on this mountain rock at the beginning of the construction of the temple.The old monk still remembers: back then, when he was a young monk, the master led him to visit the Thousand Buddha Temple, first went to the old temple at the foot of the mountain, and then worshiped the three-body Buddha in the Demon Cave, and then came to see the old bell.At that time, when the Master told him about his duties in this lineage, he rarely used some vulgar language."

We're just going to wipe the butts of these bald asses!

Remember, if there is such a day, this bell is the key!

”At that time, he also slandered the master for committing "resentment", but now he ......

"bald donkey!"

”The pavilion is current, and the eyelids of enlightenment jump.When you look closer, the more you can feel the weight of the bell.Needless to say, the bronze bell about a foot high is the size of a person hugging the bell pestle alone, hanging with a wrist-thick iron cable, the texture is hard and glowing with black light, obviously not ordinary wood.But......

The iron cable at the end of the bell pestle has been broken, and the tail of the bell pestle is deeply embedded in the mountain rock, even if it is caused by the accumulation of time, it also shows the heaviness of the bell pestle.These bastards in the temple haven't thought about repairing one or two?!

The old monk scratched his head angrily, and at this time, a little coolness was added to his head, he raised his head, and the rain was blowing.No time!

He put away his anger, hurried into the pavilion, took off his monk's robe, revealing his thin and old body, and then hugged Zhong Pestle.Drink Ha ......

The old monk's crimson neck was bruised, and his shriveled body seemed to be infused with inexplicable vitality, and the heavy bell pestle was pulled out of the rock by him inch by inch.And then.He took another deep breath and gritted his teeth.Trembling, firm, and struggling."

Boom."

Invisible sound waves ripple through the raindrops.The sound of the bell is deep and thorough, reaching the demon barrier in the heart.
