Chapter 501: Flame Red Lotus Bodhisattva Sitting upside down
Following Kong Sang, Xiao Cheng and the four people behind them, they entered the somewhat narrow path.
The entire field of vision seemed to dim again in an instant.
"Um?"
Kong Sang immediately looked to both sides. The mountain wall was not very high, and the trees were extremely dry. Logically speaking, the light should not be blocked so seriously.
What's more, before coming in, at least the firelight not far away could make the route here clearly visible. But now it's almost to the point where you can't see your fingers, which is really weird.
What they didn't know was that after entering the trail, clouds of thick fog had already appeared at the intersection only a few meters away. These thick fogs quietly covered the entire mountain gate, so that from the outside, it looked empty.
A dead end.
"Tick-tock...tick-tock..."
The sound was like water droplets falling.
Kong Sang turned on the lighting on her phone, barely illuminating the road in front of her a little. She subconsciously looked down and found that the stone stairs looked much...wetter than before, and even covered with moss?
"call……"
A gust of cold wind blew by, and a majestic sound of chanting sutras came to my ears.
"Isn't this temple uninhabited for a long time? Why is there still the sound of chanting?" Jiuhu Taro, who was not far behind Kongsang, couldn't help but look shocked.
Kong Sang frowned, the other person's words didn't seem like he was telling lies.
Does this mean that the other party doesn’t understand the situation here?

However, Jiuhu Conghui said that this Buddha head was taken from Liudao Zhenhuang Temple. So they should have some understanding of the general situation of this temple. During the discussion the day before, Jiuhu Conghui also
So promised.
"Could it be that Jiuhu Conghui even deceived his own son? But... what is the reason?"
Kong Sang couldn't help but think.
From the shadows and darkness ahead, a pair of feet suddenly appeared.
"!"
Kong Sang and Xiao Cheng immediately stopped and looked at the lights. The other party suddenly saw the bright light and couldn't help but block his eyes.
"That...donor, the light is too dazzling."
As the phone light was lowered slightly, a young monk appeared in front of him. The young monk was dressed in simple robes and looked to be in his early twenties. He looked at Kongsang and others with a puzzled look:
"It's past the temple's business hours now, please benefactors please come back."
Kongsang and Xiaocheng looked at each other, and then looked at Jiuhu Taro and others behind them.
"Didn't you say that there is no one in this temple?"
The four of them, Jiu Hu Taro, also looked at each other in confusion. Obviously, everything in front of them was inconsistent with their intelligence.
Looking at the expressions of the four people, Kong Sang understood that he probably couldn't get anything out of their mouths. He immediately turned to look at the young monk and said:
"Sorry, we are tourists from out of town and don't know much about the closing time here. But if we go down the mountain now, it will be too late. I wonder if we can stay here for one night?"
The young monk scratched his head in embarrassment: "Well...please wait here for a moment, I will go and ask the host."
"Okay, sorry for the trouble." Kongsang smiled politely.
Immediately, the little monk trotted into the darkness.
The vision in front of him began to blur again, but the sound of chanting sutras did not stop.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound coming from all around. Kong Sang looked around, but saw that there was nothing on the stone walls on both sides, only the Ksitigarbha statues standing there.
These stone statues are very different from the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in Kyushu. The bodies are very simply carved, and there are no embellishments on the round heads. The only eye-catching thing is that there is a red rope tied around the necks of these statues.
lock up.

However, this rope loop does not look out of place, because it is embellished on many statues of gods in the island country.
At first glance, the statues are so densely packed that they almost hollow out the mountain walls on both sides.
At a rough glance, there are at least hundreds of them.
"Kong Sang, when we looked here from the outside just now, were there any of these Ksitigarbha stone statues?" Xiao Cheng asked in a low voice.
"Of course there is none. These stone statues seem to have suddenly appeared." Kong Sang responded in a deep voice: "It seems that either Jiuhu Conghui lied, or new changes have occurred here since they left.
"
As he said that, Kongsang raised his cell phone to light up and walked towards the nearest Jizo stone statue.
The sound that sounded like loose soil that came to my ears just now could not be an auditory hallucination.
Could it be...that it happened to be when these stone statues came out just now?
Kong Sang shined the light on the face of one of the Ksitigarbha stone statues. The stone statue was carved with the compassionate smile of the Bodhisattva. The eyes were slightly squinted, like two crescent moons, and the smile was even fainter.
But under the illumination of the light, Kong Sang always felt that these stone statues seemed to be looking at him.
"These stone statues...can't be disguised as something..."
Kong Sang murmured to himself, preparing to touch and see.
suddenly:
"donor!"
The little monk suddenly walked out of the dark shadow and called out to Kong Sang, and even blocked the statue that Kong Sang was about to touch without leaving any trace.
"Donor, I talked to the host and he agreed. Please come with me."
"Thank you very much." Kong Sang smiled, straightened up, and put away the phone.
I looked back and saw that the reactions of Kutaro Kuho, Kenjiro Jiro, and Fujitsuna Ruka seemed to be normal. I don't know if they were deliberately hiding something, or if they really didn't see anything due to lack of experience.
On the contrary, Ho Tenkai, who came from Kiyomizu Temple, did not say a word from beginning to end. He just silently recited Buddhist scriptures and seemed to have no interest in anything around him.
"Let's go." Kong Sang called out, and immediately he and Xiao Cheng were the first to dive into the shadow and darkness.
Jiuhu Taro snorted coldly and murmured: "These people from Kyushu are really arrogant!"
With that said, the three of them entered the darkness one after another. Only Haitianfang, who was at the rear of the crowd, glanced at the Jizo stone statues on both sides before stepping into it.
Suddenly he clasped his hands together, bowed slightly and said, "Mercy."
Immediately, Haitianfang also entered the dark shadow.
The path was suddenly deserted, but the dense fog did not dissipate. The crescent-moon-like eyes of the Ksitigarbha statues inside the stone walls suddenly started to move!
Immediately afterwards, lines of blood and tears flowed from the stone sculpture's eyes.
Faintly, there was a sound of crying and wailing from within these statues. Along with the dark wind blowing around, it seemed particularly miserable.
The crows that stayed on the dry branches opened their beaks one after another.
Their pitch-black eyes looked hollow and blurry in the darkness, but their high-pitched shouts seemed to be like laughter with excitement. Mixed in the misty wind, they blew the red rope loops tied around the necks of the Ksitigarbha statues.
.
As the red rope circle rubbed, a faint trace of scarlet began to ooze from the connection between the statue's head and body.

…
The darkness seemed to dissipate in an instant.
When Kongsang and Xiaocheng followed the little monk out of the path, their eyes were suddenly dazzled by the candlelight. Taking a closer look, they saw rows of paper lanterns hanging on the fences along the road.
The lantern has a very traditional island shape, with red and white colors and even bamboo ribs with even creases. However, the pattern drawn on the lock on the lantern is a bit special.
Because whether it is a red or a white lantern, what is drawn is a lotus. And it is a more brilliant red color. The lotus is fully blooming and lifelike, and each lotus petal seems to carry unspeakable magic.
Kong Sang looked carefully, and the vision in front of her eyes kept getting blurred and magnified. In an instant, it seemed that only the gorgeous red lotus remained.
He watched the lotus bloom slowly from the form of a flower bud, and finally resembled the lotus platform where the Bodhisattva sat. Gradually, the red radiance gathered into a Bodhisattva, but the Bodhisattva turned his back to him.
From the back view, Kong Sang couldn't tell which statue it was, but it seemed more like the traditional Guanyin.
"bass!"
The lotus petals suddenly burned with blazing flames. In the flames, the petals began to curl up quickly, and a sad cry filled the ears. In the light of the fire, the sitting Bodhisattva began to twist, as if being swallowed by tongues of fire, and gradually melted.

Suddenly, the necklace worn by the Bodhisattva was blown by the fire wind. A vertical crack appeared on the back of his head.
Countless granulations appeared in the cracks, as if the skin and flesh were completely torn apart!
An eye the size of a fist stared directly at Kong Sang.
The next moment, eyes appeared one after another on the cassock. These eyes were slightly curved, as if they were smiling. Under the refraction of the firelight, there was an unspeakable heresy and evil spirit!
"Kong-san!"
Xiao Cheng's call brought Kong Sang back to reality.
Kong Sang panted slightly, glanced at Xiao Cheng, and then at the four Jiuhu Tarangs behind him, and then asked in a low voice:
"What happened to me just now?"
Xiao Cheng had a complicated look on his face: "You just... laughed. It was so exaggerated that your mouth felt like it was going to split. And you were staring at the red lotus lantern in front of you. No matter how you shook it, you didn't react."
"What did you see in there?"

Kong Sang thought for a while, then shook his head: "No hurry. By the way, where is the young monk?"
"He said he still had evening classes to do and would ask a monk named Kong Hui to receive us." Xiao Cheng explained.
"Amitabha, can the young monk go around on his own?" Monk Tenkai of Kiyomizu Temple, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.
"Oh? Why is this?" Kongsang asked.
"Obviously, the situation here exceeds the information given by our respective elders. Although Liudao Zhenhuang Temple is not big, it is very troublesome to search. It is safer to search separately."
Fang Tianhai's words were accurate, and Jiuhu Taro immediately said: "I agree. These monks who suddenly appeared here are obviously not good people. Following their lead will only make it more dangerous!"
Kong Sang shook his head in his heart, his experience was indeed shallow.
Nafang Tianhai probably has his own purpose, but Jiuhu Taro is obviously seeking death. Now that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear, searching at will is tantamount to turning against them, which will only lead to the risk here in advance.
However, this is the truth, but Kong Sang did not stop him: "In that case, the four of you can do what you want. Xiao Cheng and I will wait here for the monk named Kong Hui."
The four of them left one after another without saying anything else.
Kong Sang once again looked at the bright red lotus on the lantern, thinking about the Bodhisattva whose back was burned in the sea of fire, and then looked at the pagoda not far away from the Liudao Zhenhuang Temple, and a vision suddenly appeared in his eyes.
The illusion is like a fast-forwarding movie scene. Under the dizzying rhythm, you can still see a plump woman wearing Tang Dynasty costumes.
"Sang...Sang..."
While calling softly, Kong Sang suddenly looked at the woman.
But they saw the woman surrounded by flames, and her gorgeous long dress turned into gray butterflies flying up. She slowly turned around, but she saw half a beautiful face and half... a rotting skeleton!
The woman raised a smile, but a trace of blood oozed from the corners of her slightly curved mouth.
Immediately afterwards, in half of the face of the rotten skeleton, the eyeballs fell to the ground with a "pop", and from the dark eye sockets, green and plump caterpillars crawled out little by little with their bodies squirming!
The woman staggered, her gorgeous clothes gradually dissipated, and the beautiful skin and flesh on her body began to dry up quickly, like dehydration and erosion, step by step... gradually turning into bones!
Kong Sang wanted to avoid it, but was shocked to find that his body couldn't move.
Just when the completely melted bone hand was about to touch the tip of Kongsang's nose, a Buddha figure suddenly appeared behind him! That figure was half compassionate and half ferocious, it was none other than the Demon King Bo Xun!
