"Did you imprison them, or were you imprisoned because of them?"
Chen Qiye simply stopped caring about it. Anyway, as long as he quit and didn't break out of the restriction, he wouldn't care about anything else. If he really wanted to do that, he would have no choice but to take action.
The ghosts in the bar slowly walked toward Jie Kong one by one, and finally they all stopped in front of him. One, two, three... all began to sit cross-legged and chant along with Jie Kong.
When they recited Buddhist scriptures, their bodies were like melting ice, melting bit by bit, and their bodies became void and finally transparent.
This process lasted for more than an hour, and everyone in the bar disappeared.
They are all ghosts, and doing this seems like they are carrying out a self-salvation.
Jiekong's brows slowly smoothed out, and his expression became truly peaceful. The next moment, a tear fell from the corner of his eye. When it fell on his face, the tears turned into gold and solidified on his face.
Jie Kong's figure also glowed with a faint golden color, and a golden lotus slowly bloomed under his body, holding his body up like a Buddha.
Chen Qiye had already seen this kind of scene on the Chinese border, so he wasn't surprised at all, but this time Jie Kong seemed more like a Buddha.
There is an extra sense of compassion in the breath.
"Amitabha, Almsgiver Chen."
Jiekong slowly opened his eyes and looked at Chen Qiye. His eyes were very calm and smiling, but the golden tear was still frozen on his face. He didn't think it was anything before.
Looking back now, it seems a bit funny.
"If the Living Buddha sheds tears, great evil must come to the world!"
Jiekong sighed, and the next moment, the tears on his face slowly fell into the palm of his hand. They looked particularly crystal clear, like a small piece of gold.
Chen Qiye looked at Jiekong and asked, "Are you a Living Buddha?"
Jiekong smiled and did not answer yes or no.
"Remember what I told you, as long as there is a Buddha in your heart, there must be a Buddha."
Jiekong's words seemed like a riddle. Chen Qiye didn't bother to guess and asked: "Is your inner demon gone? If it's gone, I will remove this restriction."
"No need."
Jiekong shook his head and saw that the next moment, he came out of Chen Qiye's restraint, and the restraint behind him was still the same restraint, but Jie Kong was no longer in it.
Chen Qiye looked at Jiekong with a somewhat wary look. This monk... made him feel in danger!
In all the time he has been on Earth, Chen Qiye has never felt threatened by anyone. In his eyes, these people are just mediocre.
In front of him, he is just a living creature.
But Jie Kong was different. Chen Qiye looked at Jie Kong and saw that the opponent's strength was really unfathomable, but sometimes Chen Qiye felt that it was nothing more than that.
Jiekong's strength should be around the foundation building level, but the strength he burst out at a certain moment seemed very terrifying.
For example, now, Jiekong was able to get out of Chen Qiye's restriction effortlessly. Even he didn't see what method the other party used. Everything seemed very ordinary, as if the restriction did not exist.
Jiekong looked at Chen Qiye and said with a smile: "Donor Chen, don't look at me. If I really fight with you, I am no match for you. Otherwise, how could I try my best to suppress my inner demons? Otherwise, I would be afraid of death."
?”
Chen Qiye would not believe Jiekong's words. After all, the opponent's strength was there. Even if he wanted to say he was weak, he didn't think he was weak at all.
When the two started fighting, even Chen Qiye was not sure who would win. He could only say that the chances were 50-50.
"Anyway, I still want to thank Donor Chen. You helped me delay time and allowed me to resolve my inner demons. Otherwise... the consequences would be a bit scary!"
Jiekong's expression was a little bitter.
He wasn't lying about this. Once the restraint in his body could no longer suppress it, even he didn't know what would happen.
"These ghosts are thanking you before they leave."
Chen Qiye said calmly.
Jiekong looked slightly startled, then nodded and said: "Yes, I heard it, which means that Beneficiary Chen is right, all this is because I am too selfish."
Chen Qiye looked at Jie Kong as if he was looking at a mystery.
If you say that the other party is a monk, then I'm afraid it can't be more genuine. Such a monk is full of compassion in his heart. If he is not a monk, I'm afraid it can't be justified.
But Chen Qiye really couldn't figure out what this monk was thinking.
"You are a monk, where did you get so many worries, and how could you have the idea of creating a place like this?"
The four major things that monks pay attention to are all empty.
For ordinary monks, such words are just empty words. How can a person really achieve all four elements without looking at things outside the window, and not listening to the sounds of the world with his ears?
But if the monk Jiekong said that he was one of the Four Great Jiekongs, Chen Qiye would really believe it.
Because if such a powerful monk, who has even appeared as a shadow of the real Buddha, is not a real monk, then Chen Qiye will not believe that there are real monks in this world.
"Donor Chen, do you know that being a monk also has a lot of worries. I have no money and no women. I can drink wine and eat meat, but in the end I still have no money, so I am worried!"
Jiekong looked sad.
When Chen Qiye saw this, he was a little speechless. This guy was not good at other things, but he was quite good at pretending.
"If you don't want to say it, I won't force you."
Jiekong's words are obviously excuses.
Hearing Chen Qiye's words, Jiekong quickly smiled and nodded: "The poor monk is here to thank Almsgiver Chen."
"What about this bar? Is it a real bar?"
Jiekong smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, everything is just flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water."
After he finished speaking, the bar in front of him disappeared in an instant. Chen Qiye saw himself standing on the sidewalk of a main road. The light happened to be green at the moment, and a group of passers-by were walking on the sidewalk.
Chen Qiye was in a daze. Was he on the sidewalk just now?
"How about it, Benefactor Chen, my appearance comes from the heart, isn't it good?"
Jiekong was the same as before, with a bit of embarrassment and meanness, and his eyes were full of pride.
"Looks come from the heart? I think so, indeed, looks come from the heart."
Chen Qiye nodded.
"Donor Chen, please don't misunderstand. This is a Buddhist teaching. If it comes from the heart, then what you think in your heart will become reality. Not to mention others, even you will not notice it at all."
"The bar just now, for us, is a real bar, not a sidewalk, it's just a sidewalk at this moment."
Jiekong's words were a bit convoluted, and Chen Qiye didn't bother to think more about it.
When this monk really wants to talk about truth, he always talks about big principles, or some big Buddhist principles. If you don't understand it carefully, it's really hard to understand.
At this moment, he needed to think carefully about what Jie Kong meant.
However, Chen Qiye was too lazy to think about it, as this had nothing to do with him.
"Your inner demon has also been resolved. If nothing goes wrong, I will leave first."
Chen Qiye didn't want to stay with this monk any longer. He didn't know when he was tricked!
