Chapter 144: The Handy Green Bamboo!
Bailian Temple is built on Bailian Mountain, the highest peak of the Heishan Mountains with a radius of 800 miles. It covers an area of 800 acres and is divided into three courtyards. The outer courtyard is the outer hall where pilgrims are usually received. They are all servants and outer disciples with low cultivation levels.
; The inner courtyard is where the inner disciples of the White Lotus Temple practice Buddhism. It is protected by a heaven-level black and white lotus formation, making it difficult for ordinary disciples to approach; the last level is an eighteen-story White Lotus Pagoda. It is said that each floor of the White Lotus Pagoda is a cave sky, which is extremely vast.
, non-high-level members of the White Lotus Pagoda are not allowed to enter.
Li Luo, three people and one dragon, escaped into the outer courtyard of Bailian Temple. There were many pilgrims here, and there was a mix of people and snakes. Only some handyman monks with poor cultivation maintained order.
Li Luo and the three of them each knocked out a low-cultivation monk who was similar in stature to them, and based on their appearance, they made inferior human skin masks that looked just like the real ones, and the three of them put on the masks.
Li Luo also used makeup skills to dress up carefully, and then knocked the three young monks unconscious, sealed their five senses, and threw them into the spirit beast bag.
The black dragon horse suddenly transformed into a nine-inch-long little black snake as thick as a thumb, "Old man Yao, I'll go first and enter the second inner courtyard of Bailian Temple to investigate."
"You brat, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? I tell you that on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, you must rush to the Buddha Heart Sect in Da Mo City! There is still more than a month left. Even if you go non-stop, you can barely catch up with Laba Festival and drink Laba porridge.
, boarding Luohan Island, the schedule is so tight, brat, don’t let the small lose the big!” the wizened old monk reminded.
"Hey, the Eighteen Arhat Fruits are important, but we have to come to the White Lotus Temple because there is a Buddhist treasure here that is no less important than the Arhat Fruits - the Heart Sutra of Bodhidharma!" Li Luo smiled bitterly and spread his hands.
"Dharma Heart Sutra, thousands of years ago, the Naga traitors rejoiced in the Buddha and stole the Dharma Heart Sutra. How is it possible? Hasn't the Buddha's Heart Sect already snatched the Dharma Heart Sutra back?" The wizened old monk's face changed drastically, and he suddenly lost his composure.
.
"There must be many manuscripts of the Buddha's Heart Sutra, but the original Buddha's Heart Sutra must be in the White Lotus Temple." Li Luo said firmly.
"Last night at midnight, Saint Yun Lan from the Wuji Demon Sect sent a letter, which included a page of the Heart Sutra, which is definitely the original version of the Demon Heart Sutra.
The Demonic Heart Sutra should not be fake. Yunlan, the saint of the Wuji Demon Sect, told me that as long as we help her get the Demonic Heart Sutra, she will definitely let me see this sutra. Today she promised me to complete the task.
After that, rush directly to the Buddha Heart Sect through the space teleportation array." Li Luo explained in a low voice.
"The White Lotus Temple has always been a thorn in the side of the Wuji Demon Sect and a thorn in the flesh. The Devil's Heart Sutra must be hidden in a safe place and must be tightly guarded. How could there be any loopholes?" An Qing'er asked doubtfully.
"Of course it's difficult to reach the sky in normal times, but now it's really easy!" Li Luo said with a confident smile.
"How is that possible?" An Qing'er was puzzled.
"Three days later it will be the fifth day of the tenth lunar month, the birthday of Bodhidharma Buddha. The Heart Sutra of Bodhidharma is prohibited by the Buddha. The restrictions on the Heart Sutra are the weakest on the Buddha's birthday. Bailian Temple uses the Nine Yin Blood Formation to open the Heart Sutra of Bodhidharma once every ten years. Three days later
At this time, it is the birthday of the Buddha that happens once every ten years. Bailian Temple will inevitably choose this day to open the Bodhidharma Heart Sutra.
The White Lotus Temple needs a large amount of virgin blood to contaminate the Bodhidharma Heart Sutra and use the Nine Yin Blood Formation to forcefully open the Bodhidharma Heart Sutra. Otherwise, they would not be crazy and steal virgin red pills in the Wuji Holy City, which is just around the corner. It is really crazy!" Li Luo explained!
road.
"I see that the Saint of the Wuji Demon Sect is very scheming, Brother Luo had better be careful!" An Qing'er reminded.
"The White Lotus Temple and the Wuji Demon Sect have been fighting each other for many years, and they know themselves and their enemies. Otherwise, she would not abandon the near and seek the far away, and would only dare to trust us outsiders! But for the sake of the Bodhidharma Heart Sutra, I will fight even if it is a dragon's pond, a tiger's den, a mountain of knives, or a sea of fire!"
This is simply a conspiracy.
"In this case, if the Wuji Demon Sect surrounded Bailian Temple on such a large scale, wouldn't it be just to scare away the enemy?" The wizened old monk frowned.
"It's nothing more than a two-pronged approach to disperse the power of Bailian Temple. Maybe we are just one link in the Wuji Demon Sect's plan! The most critical link must still be hidden in the dark. If you don't move, you will be dead, and if you move, you will get the key points!" An Qing'er
His eyes lit up, and he instantly understood Wuji Demon Sect's plan.
"Ignore her, we will fish in troubled waters, but we will never take risks!" The three of them, Li Luo, made up and became the same as the three young monks just now.
The White Lotus Temple was surrounded, and the monks and soldiers who protected the temple rushed out and quickly occupied the defense nodes at the walls of the White Horse Temple. A chubby old monk walked out of the White Horse Temple with a loud laugh.
"Holy Girl Yun, with such a big show, do you want to destroy our White Lotus Temple? Don't forget, our White Lotus Temple has the order of the Marshal Protecting the Sect of the Wuji Demon Sect. Every time there is a battle between Buddha and demon, we, the monks and soldiers of the White Lotus Temple, are the vanguard.
How many monks and soldiers died on the battlefield before this Marshal's Order to Protect the Sect was dyed red? Could it be that the Wuji Demon Sect is all ungrateful? This look is too ugly! It's shameful!"
"When all the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs are cooked. The devil is a human with a long neck and a beak. He can share hardships with him, but cannot share happiness with him." The fat monk shouted loudly.
"It is said that the leader of Bailian Temple is Bai Jingkong. He has sharp teeth and an impeccable tongue. He can defeat millions of soldiers. When we see him today, he is truly worthy of his reputation!" Yun Lan jumped off the back of the Black Water Black Snake.
"The leader of Jingkong, the leader of Yunlan, there are three thieves who escaped into the White Lotus Temple. This is the portrait. Please ask the leader to arrest these three people. Our Wuji Army is waiting outside the temple and will never enter the White Lotus Temple!"
Yun Lan handed the three portraits to the fat monk and waved the Wuji Army to retreat a thousand steps away.
"So that's it! I actually broke into the White Lotus Temple overnight. The old man really hung himself and ate arsenic - seeking death!" The fat monk took the portrait and returned to the White Lotus Temple angrily.
White Lotus Temple, Mahavira Hall, the abbot of White Lotus Temple, holding a Zen staff, sitting on the white lotus throne. The abbot is thin, and because he practices the formless magic, his face is like a mist, and his facial features cannot be seen clearly.
"Abbott, my subordinates conducted a thorough investigation of the White Lotus Temple, but did not find the three people with the portraits. Baiyu Dharma Protector sent a message. These three people have indeed escaped into our White Lotus Temple, and we have to guard against them!" The fat monk spoke like a lotus flower.
"Jingkong, don't plan for the Wuji Demon Sect to attack the East and the West. These three people must be the smoke bombs of the Wuji Demon Sect. The Bodhidharma Heart Sutra is the Wuji Demon Sect's goal.
The Heart Sutra of Da Mo is opened once every ten years. It is related to the inheritance of Bailian Temple. It is of great importance and cannot be missed.
The Wuji Demon Sect has been coveting Bodhidharma's Heart Sutra for a long time. They have never given up on snatching Bodhidharma's Heart Sutra, and they have not given up for thousands of years.
The old method is to use the Bodhidharma Heart Sutra as bait, and you won’t have to worry about the fish not taking the bait! Jiang Taigong fishes for those who are willing to take the bait!" Abbot Wuxiang was not surprised at all. It would be strange if the Wuji Demon Sect didn't take action.
"Then I'll get ready!"
"Evil obstacle!" Abbot Wuxiang danced the Zen staff in his hand, causing the wind to blow. One of the Zen staff shattered the bluestone slab of the Main Hall, and the black shadow flashed away under the bluestone slab.
On the second day, in the outer courtyard of Bailian Temple, Li Luo and three other people were among hundreds of young monks, queuing up to get food.
"Qingzhu, come with me!" Li Luo had just finished preparing his meal when a young monk, who was half a head taller than Qingzhu, pulled Li Luo and rushed into the dining hall.
"Qingzhu, it's your turn today and I will go to the inner courtyard to do some chores together. After eating the fasting meal, we will go there. You know that old guy Wu Xin has black hands and a black heart. If he is late, he won't beat us to death. We should have done it early."
Go for an hour, just in case!"
Li Luo nodded without saying a word. The tall and thin young monk did not go into details. He had long been accustomed to Qingzhu's withdrawn personality.
"Identity token?" The inner courtyard of Bailian Temple is heavily guarded, and the monks and soldiers are conducting official business.
"promise!"
Qingshan, it turned out that his name was Qingshan. Li Luo glanced at the identity token.
The young monks Qingzhu and Qingshan handed their identity tokens to the monk soldiers.
"Come with me!"
