A deep mountain in western China is where Leiyin Temple is located. Monk Wuming and Monk Wujue have returned to the temple at this time.
In one of the Zen rooms of Leiyin Temple, an old monk with a kind face was sitting there, holding a string of black beads in his hand. It was the same string of beads that the ghost Buddha asked Chen Yu to return to Leiyin Temple.
This old monk, whose Buddhist name is Yuankong, is the current abbot of Leiyin Temple and the senior brother of Guifu.xdw8
Looking at the black beads in his hand, Master Yuankong sighed with emotion: "It has been more than thirty years, but I didn't expect that this string of beads would come back, but Yuanqian died overseas, Amitabha."
Wuming and Wujue sat opposite Master Yuankong, neither of them spoke, and beside Yuankong there was a tall middle-aged monk. It was Yuanliu who ordered Wuming and Wujue to go down the mountain to find Chen Yu.
Uncle Master.
Yuanliu then answered: "This black jade Buddha bead belongs to me, Leiyin Temple. If senior brother Yuanqian hadn't escaped overseas, we should have gotten it back long ago."
"What a coincidence. This time I ordered Wu Ming and Wu Jue to go down the mountain. I originally wanted them to bring back the demon who opened the door to the underworld. I didn't expect that what I brought back in the end was this black jade Buddha bead."
As soon as Yuan Liu said these words, Wu Ming and Wu Jue both nodded, because they never expected that things would develop in this direction.
Master Yuankong, on the other hand, seemed calmer and said slowly: "Yuanliu, you are impatient by nature. Even after so many years in the temple, I have not been able to calm you down. You should really spend more time studying Buddhism."
"The Gate of Underworld is indeed a passage connecting the human world and the Nine Netherworld. Once a ghost from Underworld enters the world through the Gate of Underworld, it will bring great disaster to the world, but this does not mean that all people who open the Gate of Underworld
They are all demons."
Yuanliu looked at Master Yuankong: "If it's not a demon, why would he open the Gate of Underworld?"
"There is often just a thin line between light and darkness. The front is facing the light, and the back is darkness. Everything has two sides. A knife can kill or save people, and the same is true for the Gate of Underworld." Master Yuankong explained.
However, Yuanliu didn't seem to understand, and blinked without speaking.
But Wu Ming thought for a while and said: "So maybe the donation by Chen Donor to open the gate of underworld is just a means of fighting? It's not really about releasing the ghost of underworld to cause chaos in the world?"
Master Yuankong looked at Wu Ming and nodded with satisfaction: "That's right. If that benefactor Chen really wanted to release the underworld ghost to the world, wouldn't the world have been in chaos long ago?"
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Wu Ming suddenly realized.
But after a while, Wu Ming felt something was wrong again and asked Master Yuankong: "Abbott Master, I still have something unclear. Since you know that Benefactor Chen is not a demon, why didn't you inform me and Junior Brother Wu Jue earlier and let us go back?"
Mountain?"
Master Yuankong smiled slightly: "Since Yuanliu took advantage of my rest at night and asked you and Wujue to go down the mountain on his own initiative, then there is an arrangement somewhere. It just so happens that neither you nor Wujue have ever gone down the mountain.
It’s good to take this opportunity to get out and about.”
"Besides, if you don't go down the mountain this time, how can you meet Donor Chen and bring back this black jade Buddha bead? This is fate, it's so good."
After Master Yuankong finished speaking, Yuanliu, Wuming and Wujue were all surprised. Then the three of them suddenly put their hands together and saluted Master Yuankong and said, "What the abbot said is absolutely true. Disciples have learned from it."
Master Yuankong shook his head and looked at the black jade Buddha bead in his hand: "But this donor Chen is indeed far beyond my imagination. I didn't expect that a young man could kill Yuan Qian who was holding the black jade Buddha bead. This person
The strength is unfathomable."
"Could it be someone from Kunlun or Tianshi Mansion?" Yuanliu guessed.
"It's not like that," said Master Yuankong. "According to Wu Ming and Wu Jue's descriptions, this donor Chen has a free and uninhibited personality and should be a loner. Now that spiritual energy has revived, it is not impossible for a lone ranger like Mr. Chen to appear.
."
"Revival of spiritual energy? What do you mean?" Wu Ming couldn't help but ask after hearing this.
Master Yuankong looked at Wu Ming: "Yes, you have been down the mountain for a few months, and you still don't know some things. But you should also be able to notice that the spiritual energy in this world has begun to become more abundant than before, so now
It’s the so-called spiritual revival.”
Wuming and Wujue looked at each other and were both very shocked. Because they had not yet reached the level of sainthood, their feelings were not particularly sharp, but they did feel that their practice was more or less smoother than before.
"Wouldn't the revival of spiritual energy mean that there will be more and more practitioners? And we original practitioners are expected to break through to a higher realm than before?" Wu Ming inevitably seemed a little excited.
This time Master Yuankong hadn't spoken yet, Yuanliu couldn't help but said first: "Of course! Brother Abbot is already preparing to retreat to the super holy realm!"
On earth, becoming a saint is generally considered to be the most powerful state. Very few people know that there is a super-holy state after becoming a saint.
The realm of Master Yuankong, the abbot of Leiyin Temple, has reached the peak of the holy realm. Originally, he could only stop here in this life, but now the recovery of spiritual energy has given him hope of breakthrough, so he has to retreat to the super holy realm!
Wuming and Wujue were very excited when they heard that Master Yuankong was going to reach the super-sage realm. They must know that Leiyin Temple has not seen an immortal in the super-sage realm for at least a thousand years.
In sharp contrast to the excitement of Wu Ming and Wu Jue, Master Yuankong himself still seemed calm and calm: "Whether I can break through to the super holy realm depends on fate, I'm just giving it a try."
"However, the revival of spiritual energy will definitely cause huge changes in the entire world, and I, Leiyin Temple, cannot be alone. While I am in retreat, Yuanliu will act as the abbot of Leiyin Temple."
Wuming and Wujue were startled again, and they looked at Master Yuanliu.
Yuanliu's expression didn't change at all, and he obviously knew about this already.
"Wu Ming, you are the smartest among the disciples of Wu generation. When I am in retreat, you must assist your uncle Yuanliu. Do you understand?" Master Yuankong said to Wu Ming again at this time.
"Disciple must do his best." Wu Ming promised, "But before the abbot retreats, I have one last question. If we meet that donor Chen again in the future, how should we get along with him?"
Master Yuankong said calmly: "Donor Chen punished the traitors for our temple and took back the black jade beads from our temple. He has a great good relationship with our temple. If we meet again, of course we will treat him as a distinguished guest. Yuanliu, you too
Remember, Donor Chen is not a bad person, so you must not offend this Donor Chen."
