Chapter Nineteen: The Buddha's Light Illuminating the Earth
Chen Zhi once believed that the legend that the relics would shine and illuminate the Zhongnan Mountains was absolutely ridiculous.
Everyone knows that the relic itself is the burning compound of bones. It is impossible for it to emit strong light on its own, let alone to illuminate the earth like a large light bulb with tens of thousands of watts on the top of the pagoda!
It's just that when Buddhism was first introduced to China, people worshiped the relics too much, and then mystified them and created rumors.
But what he saw now had completely overturned Chen Zhi's original thoughts. From then on, Chen Zhi felt even more distant from Buddhism.
The stupa is very majestic and wide. It is a typical square pagoda of the Tang Dynasty, rising straight into the sky in the dark.
On the top of the tower, there is an empty pavilion on the top of the tower made of colored glaze.
This structure is very common for pagodas. Since the Tang Dynasty, all pagodas have had a space for storing things, called a blessing treasure.
After some eminent monks passed away, they would build pagodas to place their bodies.
Among the blessing treasures, there will be placed the Book of Songs, Buddhist beads, and books that he copied during his lifetime, and some will even put valuable items.
But at this time, the Buddha treasure on the top of the stupa was very transparent.
And from the inside to the outside, it emits all kinds of radiance, just like a bright lamp.
The luster looks very sacred. When it shines through the glass plate, it spreads out very warmly, rising in circles. The colors inside are colorful and changing. There are people and animals. It looks like the pattern of reincarnation.
, it is really exactly the same as the Buddha's light of the legendary relic.
This light shines into the darkness ahead, passing through all obstructions, illuminating the mountains in the mountains.
When the light shone on Chen Zhi, he suddenly shivered.
The capillaries all over my body were opened. The feeling was indescribable, as if I had been baptized from the depths of my soul.
"this……",
Chen Zhi suddenly felt speechless. Such a sight was simply a miracle, but why had he never heard of it?
This is very unreasonable!
Chen Zhi remembered that 20 years ago, a Buddha light phenomenon appeared at the Leshan Giant Buddha. It was only for a moment, but it was seen by many people. At that time, people were shocked, and some people immediately knelt down and worshiped.
Although that incident was later confirmed to be a strange phenomenon in the sky, it has been circulated for many years. It is talked about by Buddhists and is called a Buddhist holy scene. It is still circulated to this day.
But the grand scene in front of us is simply unprecedented and unprecedented. How could it have been hidden for so long without anyone discovering it?
Is it because the Great Mercy is too strict in management? Impossible. This temple has existed for more than 1,000 years and has gone through many wars. It is impossible that such a magical scene cannot be exposed by the wind.
Besides, there is no airtight wall in the world. How could such a huge miracle be hidden in modern society for so long?
unless……
"Well! What are you thinking about!",
While Chen Zhi was in a trance, Fat Wei suddenly called him and pointed to the big lock on the door in front of him.
"That's it, what do you think we should do now?
Should we smash the door and pick the lock, or climb over the wall?
Let me tell you, don’t even think about using your tricks. This is a Buddhist quiet place, so don’t mess with those black people! You are shameless, and I still want to be!"
After Fat Wei finished speaking in a low voice, he turned around and winked at Ghost Sword, pointing to those big thick chains.
Ghost Sword immediately understood, nodded, walked up, picked up the chains and weighed them.
It was a really heavy chain. It was made entirely of pig iron. It weighed hundreds of kilograms in total and was as thick as a human arm. It was wrapped one layer at a time and tied up the door tightly.
Ghost Sword picked up the two chains and gently pulled them back. With a few crackling sounds, the chains were like hollow plastic ropes, and they were all broken by him.
This move of Ghost Sword frightened the young monk who followed him.
The young monk was still young and kept silent as he followed along, but when he saw those heavy chains being easily broken by the track's hands, he looked at the ghost sword as if he were a monster.
Then his whole body began to tremble, he picked up the beads, put them in front of his mouth, and began to chant the sutra tremblingly.
"Let's go in...
You guys, just stay here!",
Danxuan turned around and pointed at the young monk and Fat Wei, which meant that he would not let them follow.
After hearing these words, Fat Wei was so beautiful that he immediately put his hands together and bowed repeatedly, smiling at Danxuan:
"Amitabha, Master, you are so considerate!
A rough guy like me has never done anything good before, so I was really afraid of offending the Buddha when I went in.
Then what..., I will wait until I have time in the rest of my life to eat more raw food and clean out my intestines and stomach before I come back!"
"Um!",
Dan Xuan smiled and nodded, then turned back to look at Ghost Sword, but this time, Dan Xuan's face showed a rare seriousness.
"Don't go either!
If you are going to kill the Han, you should rest outside..."
"oh!",
Guidao was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Chen Zhi, and after receiving acquiescence, he immediately clasped his hands together and said respectfully.
"good!"
Danxuan then turned back, straightened his clothes solemnly, put on the cassock he brought with him, put the Buddhist crown handed down by his master on his head, held the abbot's staff, and stood respectfully at the gate.
forward.
Bow in Buddhist rites.
Chen Zhi has been watching from the side, and he can clearly feel that despite Danxuan's calm appearance, he is actually very nervous now.
That kind of nervousness is a bit like the feeling of being looking for something and finally finding it, but not daring to look directly.
Admiration, awe, but one cannot restrain oneself...
After sorting it out, Danxuan held the staff, looked at Chen Zhi and nodded.
"Let's go!
Let’s go meet him…”
Once Xuanyuan finished speaking, he strode forward, held the door with both hands, and pushed forward with all his strength.
"Creak~~" a sound...
The pair of metal doors were pushed open by him. It was obvious that no one had opened the door for a long time, and the dust and iron filings on it fell to the floor.
When the door opened, they did not see the stupa in front of them as they expected.
On the contrary, they saw a group of unexpected and alive things...
