But the viscosity of the surrounding liquid was very high. Even though we tried our best to swim, we still couldn't move much distance. The iron drills had reached us unknowingly. When I looked up, I could see the sharp blades flashing.
With a silver light, it came towards us both.
"Damn, think of a way! If we keep going like this, we're going to be in two!" Fatty shouted with a pale face. "If we are really pulled into the illusion by him, the injuries we receive will be reflected on our bodies.
To die is to be truly dead.”
"I'm thinking about it too, but I have to figure it out!" I yelled, "How fat are you? You have so much strength to hold the iron drill?"
"Are you kidding me? This iron drill is three times bigger than me. If I touch it, I will turn into a steak." The fat man kicked his feet, stepped on the iron drill in front of him, and jumped in the opposite direction.
It's like dodging a disaster.
But the ones I have here are drawn from the top of my head to the side, so I can't imitate his movements. Seeing that I will be cut into pieces soon, I have no choice but to close my eyes and recite the "Heart Sutra" silently in my heart, hoping to stabilize my body.
Mind, break the illusion in front of you.
"Relics, form is not empty, emptiness is not form..." This Heart Sutra, which I have recited thousands of times, has long been familiar to me. Even in the moment of life and death, I can handle it without any obstruction.
I blurted out and read the scriptures fluently from my mouth. I vaguely felt a circle of golden light appear around me, but the iron drill that was already close in front of me didn't penetrate.
The Sanskrit music was singing loudly around me, and the golden light was surging, as if all the Buddhas in the heavens had appeared beside me. I fell into a state of calmness and silence, with no distractions and no fluctuations in my mind. I slowly opened my eyes.
Sure enough, the scene next to me, like being in a mother's womb, gradually faded away, and even the shadow of the iron drill gradually blurred with the golden light, making it difficult to see clearly.
I felt happy and thought that silently reciting the Heart Sutra had some effect on dispelling the illusion, but maybe my calm and perfect state of mind was broken. The Buddha's light around me suddenly dimmed a bit. I felt a pain in my shoulder, something cold and sharp.
Poke it in.
I screamed out in pain, and the sight that followed was that the golden light protecting my body continued to fade away, and the iron drill that had only a vague outline completely appeared, flying towards my body at high speed.
"Hurry up and continue chanting! Keep your mind occupied and don't think about other things!" The fat man reminded aloud, while he also crossed his legs and let his body float in the liquid, concentrating on reciting the sutra.
A layer of golden light also faintly emanated from his body. Although it was not as bright and brilliant as mine before, it gradually dispersed the strange scenes around him.
Ignoring the pain in my shoulders, I quickly closed my eyes again and continued where I left off. Halfway through, I felt a few more cold iron rods being inserted into my body, but I tried my best not to pay attention to the sensations on my body.
Immerse yourself in the content of the scriptures.
In a daze, I felt that everything in the world had lost its image and meaning. Even my body had become a dispensable skin. Whether it was pain or relief, these feelings did not exist for me. I thought
I slowly entered the so-called state of unity of Brahman and self, integrated my spirit and consciousness into the light of Buddha, and realized the ultimate way of heaven and earth in the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe it was just a moment. When Fatty and I came to our senses again, we found that we were back in the room, but the peach that was originally on my shoulders was gone, and the fetal spirit had also disappeared.
We touched our pockets. All the charms were in our pockets, and the mahogany sword and ancient mirror were also lying on the ground beside us.
"Where's Taozi?" the fat man asked, "What on earth were you doing just now? Why did she fall naked in your arms?"
"Bah, what do you mean naked? She is obviously wearing underwear." I complained, "Don't be jealous, she was like this when I came in just now. Do you want to discuss this with me now? Go find Tao Zi and that brat."
"
The fat man said "oh" and finally remembered his priorities. He rushed out of the room with the mahogany sword. I also picked up the Tiangang Liangsheng Mirror from the floor of the room. We originally wanted to track the fetal spirit's blood on the ground, but the strange thing was
Although it looked like a mass of broken flesh, it left no trace on the ground.
"Maybe in his parents' room!" I had an idea and thought that since all the resentment of this fetal spirit towards the world comes from being aborted, then its parents are naturally the objects of its most hatred and resentment.
It had not been aroused to hostility before, so it just played in the shadow of the house. Until this time Taozi appeared, and the unique feminine constitution attracted it, making it feel very close to it, treating it as a beloved huge toy.
Can't put it down.
But because it was interrupted by us, and because Taozi threw it out in a panic, the fetus was completely angered and began to attack the living people it could see.
Although we have escaped from the illusion, the anger of the fetus may not be able to stop like this, and the most likely targets of revenge are the parents who gave it life, but cruelly took it away before it started to have it.
Saving people is the most important thing. We no longer care about etiquette or confidentiality. We directly pushed open the owner's bedroom and found two naked people standing in front of the bed, holding fruit knives in their hands, cutting each other's bodies.
And by the window not far away, a familiar figure stood there with a smile on his face, holding a ball of flesh and blood, as if he was admiring the scene in front of him, showing a satisfied expression.
"As expected, it's here! Brother, you are so smart." The fat man praised me, but he didn't stop. He took out two amulets and put them on his head. After muttering for a while, the young couple who were dripping with blood finally stopped.
A strange slash.
And I raised the Tiangang Liangyang Mirror, and a white light shot out, shining on the two people's faces. The two people showed expressions of pain and confusion, then closed their eyes and fainted on the ground, probably due to blood loss.
The fetus in Taozi's arms let out another angry cry, as if it was angry that we had disturbed his good things again and again, but it had seen my ancient mirror and failed to trap us with illusions. I think it was a little bit...
He was so scared that he didn't dare to attack rashly, so he just manipulated Taozi to open the window and try to jump away.
"Quickly stop them!" I quickly climbed over the window to catch up with Taozi, but the fat man was stuck in the window frame and crawled out slowly and with difficulty. The size of the window was still a bit too narrow for his belly.
