"Yes." Kong Zheng replied, "I saw it with my own eyes that night."
"Since the whole city has been infected by the evil spell, why are the four of you safe and sound?" Lin Ji asked strangely.
"This..." Kong Zheng said with a frown, "I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still haven't found the solution."
Lin Ji turned around and looked at the county government office and said, "Were all four of you in this government office on the day the incident happened?"
"No!" Kong Zheng replied, "At that time, I and the two slaves were indeed in the yamen, but my grandson was outside the door, playing with the neighboring children. The other children were bewildered by the devil and followed the flute away.
He was so surprised that he ran back and called me, and then I found out."
This is strange!
Lin Ji scanned them with his spiritual consciousness and found nothing special about these people, nor did they have any treasures to suppress evil and prevent evil.
This thing may seem inconspicuous, but it is extremely important.
As long as we understand why these people were able to escape the evil spells and sorcery, we will naturally be able to find out the details and have a chance of winning.
"Master Kong, if you think about it carefully, are you four slave owners any different from others in the county? Come on, have something to eat first, and think about it while you eat."
Lin Ji said, taking out some spare eating bowls from Qiankun Sleeve.
Lin Ji had already entered the late stage of Taoism, so he didn't need to eat enough to survive. He brought these things just to satisfy his temporary pleasure, and most of them were prepared for Lu Zhaoer.
Seeing that these people were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, they might faint and die at any time, so naturally they couldn't just ignore them.
When they saw Lin Ji taking out something to eat, everyone's eyes widened, including Kong Zheng's, and they all swallowed their saliva.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for saving your life!" After Kong Zheng saluted, he forgot to be polite and swallowed one sesame seed cake in two mouths without even chewing.
"Master Kong, don't worry, there's more." Lu Zhaoer advised as he handed over a piece of sesame seed cake.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Lu Zhaoer touched the child's head and said lovingly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"The child had food in his mouth and expressed his thanks with both hands.
The other two mute slaves did the same thing when they saw them. They bowed their hands to Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer to express their gratitude.
When Lin Ji saw him, he couldn't help but be stunned!
He hurriedly asked Kong Zhengdao: "Master Kong, have the four of you ever practiced Buddhist rituals?"
Kong Zheng stretched his neck, forced the food in his mouth to swallow, pointed at the two mute slaves and said: "The two of them were originally monks from Leiguang Temple. Later, after taking the wrong medicine, they became mute and could not recite sutras.
Being bullied, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I ran out. I couldn't stop begging for food and fainted on the roadside. I happened to pass by when I was demoted to Weizhou, and out of kindness, I took him as a domestic slave."
"What about you, Mr. Kong? Have you ever studied Buddhist scriptures or worshiped Buddha?" Lin Ji asked.
Kong Zheng replied: "I have never worshiped the Buddha, but when I was in court, I copied a scripture for Luo Xiang."
"Luo Xuanyi?" Lin Ji asked, "Why did he ask you to copy it for him?"
"At that time, Mr. Luo had not yet taken office as prime minister, and his only beloved daughter died for no reason. I don't know who told him to copy a scripture for his daughter, so that she could find peace and liberation as soon as possible. And the person who copied the scriptures needed to have a right heart.
I am innocent and never do anything wrong. So, Prime Minister Luo found me, and after copying it, I was not allowed to take it back."
"It was also at that time that Mr. Lin went to Luo Mansion on an errand, and I was copying scriptures in the side room. I happened to catch a glimpse of Mr. Lin."
Lin Ji felt like the hairs all over his body were about to explode!
This matter is analyzed in detail and reasoned out one by one, but it is extremely terrifying!
"Then do you still remember the content of the scripture?" Lin Ji asked.
Kong Zheng replied: "It's not because of pride. I may not be good at learning, but my memory is extremely amazing. I can't forget it with a photograph, let alone copied it by hand? The Buddhist scripture has no name, and the cover seems to have been deliberately torn off.
, but the content is correct. If I hear it, the Buddha is..."
"So I heard that the Buddha is among the nine pagodas..."
As soon as Kong Zheng opened his mouth, his little grandson continued to recite as if he was vying for favor: "It transformed into nine colors of brilliance, condensed into nine illusions, and performed thousands of great changes. At that time, there were nine people and three thousand realms, thirty outside the clouds
All the Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and golden fruits of the three days came to worship..."
The little boy was making a loud sound, but he was actually reciting it in a decent manner.
"Who did you learn this from?" Lin Ji asked in shock.
"Well, a fat grandpa, he has no hair." The child obediently stretched out his little hand and gestured.
"Then where did you see the fat grandpa?"
"Uh." The kid was stunned and said, "Fat Grandpa said, don't tell anyone else. Otherwise, let me wet the bed every day... Grandpa said, bedwetting is not a good boy."
"Wenjie, please tell the adults quickly." Kong Zheng also heard that something was wrong and helped to persuade him.
But the child didn't say whether he was alive or dead, and just kept eating.
Lin Ji took out a shiny and fat chicken leg, sprinkled it with some seasonings that he was reluctant to take out, and roasted it on the fire until it was sizzling with oil and fragrant. He deliberately shook it in front of the child, and took another hard bite.
Deba chirped and said, "As long as you tell me the truth, I'll give you this chicken drumstick, and there will be some left after you finish it!"
The little boy swallowed greedily, and finally couldn't resist the temptation. He stared wide-eyed and said, "Really? Are you really giving it to me?"
"I'll let you take a bite first." Lin Ji handed out the chicken drumstick.
The little child opened his mouth wide and took a hard bite.
After the fragrant chicken drumsticks were in my stomach, I finally couldn't stand it any longer and told the truth: "Fat Grandpa would take me to a glittering place in his dream every time I fell asleep. These words are what he taught me."
.Well, he also said that I actually have a name."
"What's the name?" Lin Ji asked anxiously.
"Five pears." The little child happily took a bite of the chicken leg and stretched out a slap.
Lin Ji secretly thought: "Wu Li?...Wu Di...Wu Yuan..."
Buddha country, Buddha country, where exactly is it?
And what is the reason for this Jiuzhou Continent!
"How long has Fat Grandpa been teaching you?" Lin Ji asked again.
"That's right, just when I came to this shabby house..." The little child pointed at the county government lobby with his greasy little finger.
Kong Zheng quickly added: "A year ago! I was transferred here a year ago, when the Qin Dynasty was about to fall. I heard that Emperor Pei remembered an old incident again at that time, and he was very angry and issued the order himself.
."
Kong Zheng had long been demoted from the capital, and after several years of separation, Emperor Pei personally ordered him to be demoted again.
When I came here, a fat monk came into his dream and taught his grandson to recite Buddhist scriptures...
Also, the death of Luo Xiang and Luo Xiang’s daughter is a game within a game.
But now, are there any clues pointing to another truth?
Or is someone trying to hide a bigger secret?
wrong!
There must be some link here, but I haven't thought about it thoroughly.
