Chapter 15 Bodhi

Chapter 15 Bodhi

"What's wrong with you?" Pang Bo's voice reached Ye Fan's ears, and he was shaking his shoulders vigorously.

Ye Fan just woke up like a dream. Wherever there was any Buddhist music or Zen singing, the ancient temple was still the same, with a thick layer of dust accumulated, and others seemed to have never heard it.

"Is it really the Great Leiyin Temple?" He whispered to himself. Although what he heard and saw just now was short-lived, why was it so real? This made him trance for a while, and he thought about it carefully.

Ye Fan stared at the ancient bronze lamp in his hand, but he no longer had any special feeling. There were some patterns and imprints on it, which were simple, natural, and unremarkable, with nothing out of the ordinary.

"Futon!" A male classmate found an old futon from a pile of ashes. Time has not erased it.

Not long after, another female classmate found a red sandalwood rosary bead from under the thick dust. It had not been damaged at all by the passage of time. After blowing away the dust, it still had a faint luster.

At the same time, Cade found a half-broken wooden fish in the dust in front of the stone Buddha, with three Bodhisattvas engraved on it, either solemn or compassionate, and lifelike.

At this moment, Ye Fan is thinking a lot. If this is really the legendary Great Leiyin Temple, then it is a place abandoned by the gods, and all the unearthed artifacts should be extraordinary!

"when"

Wang Ziwen's foot seemed to have kicked something, making a metallic trembling sound. He peeled away the dust in the corner, revealing a broken copper bell that could be as big as a palm. A piece of the bell wall was missing, and the style was ancient.

"When..." He shook the bronze bell, and suddenly a melodious sound came out, like the sound of Buddha lingering, making people feel peaceful.

Ye Fan was interrupted from his thoughts and couldn't help but look at the bronze bell. There were flowing cloud patterns engraved on it, which was simple and Zen-like, embodying Buddhist charm.

Pang Bo murmured softly. He entered the ancient temple first, but found nothing. He could only say that he was unlucky.

Almost at the same time, Li Xiaoman found half of the jade Ruyi at the foot of the stone Buddha, wiped off the dust, and the crystal clear remaining jade suddenly shed a little brilliance.

The ancient temple seemed empty, but several people found artifacts under the dust, and others immediately moved quickly to search for them.

Ye Fan didn't care about those artifacts. The only ancient bronze lamp in the ancient temple that was spotless, intact, and everlasting was in his hand. Other artifacts were obviously incomparable.

"I don't believe I can't find anything..." Pangbo muttered.

"Look here carefully, and no matter what artifacts you find, you must put them away." Ye Fan handed the ancient lamp to Pang Bo and asked him to search with the help of light. Although he could not see anything special about these broken Buddhist artifacts for the time being, he knew

If there are gods in the world, these things must be extraordinary!

Ye Fan temporarily handed the copper lamp to Pang Bo, and walked out of the ancient temple and walked towards the Bodhi tree in front of the temple. At this time, he had got rid of his original thinking and temporarily convinced himself that the gods really existed.

Since the ancient temple is the Great Leiyin Temple, how can we miss the Bodhi tree accompanying it? If there is a Buddha in the world, that dry ancient tree must be extraordinary!

The bodhi tree is a sacred tree in Buddhism. According to records in "The Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", the Buddha once told Ananda that there are three types of objects in the world that should be worshiped - Buddha bone relics, Buddha statues and the bodhi tree.

Because the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, seeing the Bodhi tree is like seeing the Buddha.

The dry old tree in front of me is as vigorous as a horned dragon. Six or seven people can't hug it. The main trunk is hollow, with only one dead branch hanging down to two or three meters above the ground. There are six green leaves hanging on it, sparkling like green agate.

Transparent.

Regardless of whether this ancient tree is related to the Buddha or not, the six green jade-like leaves alone are enough to show how extraordinary it is.

Ye Fan came under the tree and looked carefully at the ancient Bodhi tree. The huge branches were almost completely pressing on the ancient temple. If it were covered with branches and leaves, you can imagine the scene that would block the sky and the sun.

At this moment, Ye Fan's heart moved. He found that six crystal green leaves were slightly invisible. A small part of them floated towards the five-color altar in the distance, while most of them disappeared into the roots of the tree.

Dots of green clouds, shaped like silk, are constantly overflowing from the six green leaves, making people feel a breath of life and endless vitality flowing.

Ye Fan squatted down and peeled away the soil at the root of the tree, wanting to see what was underneath, which could condense the green glow overflowing from the bodhi leaves.

Under the soil, he did not see anything magical. He only found a bodhi seed. There was no light shining, no flowers gathered, no clouds lingering, and the color was gray and ordinary. If you were not careful, you would be mistaken for a clod of soil.

The only special thing is its size. The ordinary bodhi seed is no more than the size of a fingernail, but this gray bodhi seed is as big as a walnut.

Ye Fan was surprised for a while. Could it be that the green cloud overflowing from the bodhi leaf was absorbed by it? After observing it for a moment, he saw that the silky green cloud flowed down and disappeared three inches away from the bodhi seed.

Although it has not been seen to absorb the essence of Bodhi leaves, it is almost certain that it is the cause.

Ye Fan held the bodhi seed in his palm, and after careful observation, he was shocked. The natural lines on this gray and ordinary bodhi seed turned out to be a compassionate Buddha!

Buddha is made of nature, completely formed by the intersection of natural textures, but it seems to be carefully carved on it.

The gray Buddhist pictures are simple and natural, with a faint Zen charm coming out.

"The picture of the born Buddha, does it mean that 2,500 years ago, Sakyamuni really failed to achieve enlightenment because of the Bodhi tree?"

The bodhi tree has other names, including the tree of wisdom, the tree of enlightenment, and the tree of thinking. It is said that it can unlock people's divinity and awaken their bodies.

Ye Fan raised the bodhi seed high above his head and faced the six green leaves above. The speed of the green clouds overflowing suddenly became much faster, and the vitality became thicker and concentrated on the bodhi seed. Of course, the brilliance still disappeared within three inches of it.

outside.

"Bo"

There was a soft sound, and a crystal Bodhi leaf shed its last green glow, then shattered, turned into fly ash, and fell down.

At this point, Ye Fan was finally convinced that Bodhizi seemed ordinary, but it was very extraordinary, so he cherished it and put it away.

At this time, he noticed that there was a lot of powder on the ground, which was the same as the fly ash that the Bodhi leaf had just turned into. Could it be that the Bodhi leaves all over the tree disappeared like this? This surprised Ye Fan.

The bodhi seed in the image of the natural Buddha made him feel that it was of great importance. He vaguely felt that it was more important than the ancient bronze lamp that always accompanied the stone Buddha!

There were still five green leaves on the ancient Bodhi tree, but they were not as crystal clear as before and were much darker. Ye Fan did not pick them off. It was enough to harvest one Bodhi seed. He did not want to attract attention.

At this time, no one had come out of Daleiyin Temple. Ye Fan left the Bodhi tree and returned to the ancient temple.

At this moment, another seven or eight people found Buddhist artifacts, each with different appearance. Liu Yunzhi unexpectedly found half a golden pestle from behind the stone Buddha. Although it had been buried in the dust for who knows how many years, it was unearthed again and was still shining brightly.

It has a heavy and condensed feeling. If one end were not damaged, it would be a perfect and powerful forged masterpiece.

This scepter-shaped pestle has a very powerful name in Buddhism, it is Vajra, which has the indirect meaning of "destroying the enemy". It symbolizes invincibility, indestructible wisdom and true Buddha nature, and is the saint of all saints.

The weapon held by the staff.

If there is a Buddha in the world, this vajra is undoubtedly a sacred object, and it must have extraordinary and diverse appearances. Even if it has the mysterious power to split mountains and rivers, it is not surprising, but at this moment, there is no magic.

Liu Yunzhi waved it vigorously, and half of the vajra pestle flashed across like golden lightning, shining brightly, and the vajra pestle was very powerful.

"Tell me, if these artifacts are possessed by gods, what an earth-shattering scene will happen if we find out how to use them..."

Hearing Liu Yunzhi's words, everyone who found the Buddhist artifacts became fascinated.
