This was the second time I heard the four words "Sakyamuni". The first time it was said by the Taoist monk Wu Jie.
But he didn't say much to himself, he just mentioned his name and that was it.
If Ding Xiaoyi's thoughts were heard by Taoist monks, they would definitely point their noses and curse: "I told you about Sakyamuni, but you understand??"
"Aren't you very close to the ghost leader? How come Sakyamuni doesn't know about it?"
The ghost princess joked, then looked at the sky and said, "Let's go on our way first, and we'll talk as we go."
As he said that, he walked along the ridge.
On the way, I told Ding Xiaoyi the story of Sakyamuni's enlightenment.
It is said that when Sakyamuni became enlightened, the demon king Bo Xun brought his three daughters to prevent Sakyamuni from becoming enlightened.
But he was easily resolved by Sakyamuni. After the defeat of Demon King Bo Xun, he was suppressed by Sakyamuni.
In fact, the demon king Bo Xun was actually the evil thought of Sakyamuni, and Sakyamuni could not kill him.
Because if evil is eliminated, there will be no so-called Buddha.
Therefore, we can only suppress him on the sixth day and make him the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven on Earth.
After Demon King Bo Xun was suppressed, he looked up to the sky and laughed, threatening:
"After you pass away, I will ask my disciples and disciples to mix in with your disciples, wear your cassocks, and destroy your Dharma. They will misinterpret your scriptures and destroy your precepts.
In the Age of Ending Dharma, Buddha will only become an object of contempt for people, and as time goes by, you will be completely forgotten."
This story is very short, and the ghost princess finished explaining it in a few words.
Only then did Ding Xiaoyi learn about this story that no one had sung for a long time.
Although we don’t know whether the devil succeeded in the end, judging from the results, it seems that people are really as the devil said, and they have completely forgotten the existence of Gautama Buddha.
Seeing Ding Xiaoyi lost in thought, the ghost princess immediately changed her voice and sneered: "This version is widely circulated, but actually I know another version."
"Another version??"
He raised his head and looked at the ghost princess expectantly.
It seems that the princess is in a good mood today, or maybe she is very happy to expose the dark history of those ancient times.
So another version soon appeared in her mouth.
This version is very short, with only one sentence: "Sakyamuni is the Buddha, but he is also the most successful devil."
"What does it mean??"
He felt a little dizzy being surrounded by the ghost princess, but the ghost princess didn't explain. She pointed at the gradually smaller temple behind and asked coldly: "You went in, didn't you see anything?"
As soon as he said these words, the terrifying stone Buddha suddenly flashed in his mind, and a shiver suddenly ran through his heart.
Suddenly I had a very absurd thought in my mind: "The Buddha is Sakyamuni, and the demon is also Sakyamuni. If you practice Buddhism to the extreme, you are cultivating demons?"
This absurd idea cannot stand up to scrutiny at all and makes people feel that it goes against common sense.
Ding Xiaoyi himself doesn’t know much about Buddhism, but he can think more rationally from the perspective of a bystander.
This Great Leiyin Temple is the temple of Sakyamuni.
But he placed this temple across the ridge of the upper Kunlun Mountains. The stone Buddha in the temple continued to absorb the vitality of passers-by.
Just thinking about the white bones on the ground in front of the stone Buddha, Ding Xiaoyi felt that his scalp became numb the more he thought about it.
"So...will the things in the temple come out?" He couldn't help but asked curiously.
This question made the ghost princess think about it for a moment, and finally nodded solemnly: "Yes, and it won't take long."
Ding Xiaoyi's heart suddenly sank, and your princess's words were like a layer of haze hanging over his heart.
While the two of them were talking, they had already traveled a long way without realizing it.
Along the way, Ding Xiaoyi saw many strange corpses one after another.
Among them was the skeleton of a feathered man.
The body was hanging on a cliff in the distance, pierced by a sharp iceberg.
If you look closely, you will see that it is the body of a girl, with a pair of white wings on its back, but the girl's lower body is missing.
Only a bloody mess was left.
"It's a pity. An adult Yuren still has half of her body. It's probably that her employer accidentally broke free from her restraints and jumped down to commit suicide. It's a pity, it's a pity..."
The ghost princess looked at the corpse, shook her head in regret, but her regret felt like regretting a broken object.
As for the life or death of this feathered man, she doesn't care.
Ding Xiaoyi opened his mouth but didn't say anything. He just looked up along the mountain wall. It was a majestic mountain. In fact, it was not far away from them.
At their current speed, they should be able to climb up before dark.
But the further he walked, the more Ding Xiaoyi felt the bone-chilling cold on his body.
It was as if the animal skin on his body no longer had any effect.
Fortunately, the ghost princess didn't really sit idly by and threw a black fruit to him.
"Eat it, now is not the time for you to die."
Ding Xiaoyi picked up the fruit and felt that the fruit was cold and biting, as hard as a stone.
The dark appearance made him seriously doubt whether this thing was poison.
I quietly scanned it with [Zhaoyoujing] and heard a faint explanation voice coming from the Zhaoyoujing.
"Snow gallbladder is a rare treasure nurtured by heaven and earth. Its place of origin is unknown. It can be eaten to keep out the cold. It tastes very bitter and has an astringent aftertaste. Dip it into some mustard and honey and the taste... can be swallowed!"
It turned out to be snow gallbladder. He suddenly realized that this was a good thing. If you don’t eat it, you won’t eat it for free.
However, he still worriedly grabbed a handful of snow and wiped it several times to make sure it was clean. Then he took out honey and sugar, mixed them together and poured them on top, and then took a vicious bite.
However, after taking one sip, a strong bitter taste instantly filled his mouth and nose, making his facial features twist into a ball.
Fortunately, the sweet taste mixed with honey and white sugar came later, and he was relieved from the pain.
As expected, it can be swallowed only as Zhao Youjing said.
However, after taking a bite of snow gallbladder, he immediately felt that his body was not as cold as before.
My limbs also become active and no longer so numb.
Seeing that the snow gall was really effective, no matter how unpleasant the taste was, he still forced it into his mouth.
It wasn't until after eating the entire snow gallbladder that Ding Xiaoyi poured another mouthful of honey into his mouth that he felt his whole body come to life. He swore in his heart that he would never eat another piece of this stuff in his life.
Unexpectedly, just as she secretly swore, the ghost princess handed over another snow gall.
"Eating one won't work, so take two!"
Seeing this, he shook his head repeatedly and expressed strongly that even if he was exposed to the cold, he would definitely not eat it. Whoever eats it would be a puppy.
"Okay, it's up to you. When you can't stand it anymore, I'll remember what you said!" The ghost princess smiled coldly and put away the other snow gall.
With the help of the snow gallbladder I just ate, the next step will be smooth and smooth.
Gradually he saw someone walking along the ridge in front of him.
There is more than one, some are middle-aged and some are old.
Ding Xiaoyi even saw a teenage boy among them.
Everyone can look at each other, but because they are not on the same timeline, no one can directly contact each other.
Even the sound can't be conveyed.
But if you want to communicate, you can still do it, such as writing, sign language, lip reading, etc.
Regarding the newly appeared Ding Xiaoyi and the ghost princess, several people's eyes were filled with guardedness.
Even though they were on different timelines, Ding Xiaoyi could feel the unkind looks that several people gave him.
"Don't look at me, you're lucky if they can see you as a competitor!"
The ghost princess looked at him contemptuously.
"Haha, then do I still need to thank them?"
Ding Xiaoyi curled his lips and said with a disapproving look, but he was more careful and on guard.
It took only a few steps.
Suddenly, he stopped walking, stared blankly ahead and said to himself: "Damn it, it can't be such a coincidence!"
In front of him, he saw an old man covered in black robes, walking with difficulty on crutches.
As if he noticed something, the old man slowly turned around, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his white eyes.
The corners of his scar-covered mouth raised slightly and he smiled, but the smile made people feel chills in their hearts.
Seeing this, the other people around him stopped involuntarily.
Following the old man's gaze, he looked at Ding Xiaoyi again.
For a while, many people were surprised and their expressions became playful.
"How come I met an acquaintance!"
When the ghost princess saw this, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows and asked.
"Familiar, very familiar!!" He smiled brightly, but he was shouting in his heart: "It's a narrow road, how can we meet this old guy here?"
Ding Xiaoyi's mind was spinning rapidly, and a plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife suddenly came into his mind.
Suddenly the smile on his face became even brighter, and he strode forward with open arms to meet the old man.
Anyway, we are not on the same timeline, so even if you see me, there is nothing you can do about me.
Seeing the enthusiastic look on Ding Xiaoyi's face, the old man sneered in response and glanced at the ghost princess from the corner of his eye.
There was an intuition telling him that this person didn't seem to be simple.
"Old senior, I have finally caught up with you. The last time we said goodbye, I thought it was goodbye forever."
He turned his back to the ghost princess and shouted loudly.
But the expression on his face was completely different, full of arrogance and arrogance, making him want to look at people through his nostrils.
Although there was something wrong with the old man's eyes, it did not prevent him from seeing the arrogant and domineering look on Ding Xiaoyi's face.
Looking at the shape of his mouth, he was clearly shouting to himself: "See what's behind, my master, if you dare to touch me again this time, try it!!"
The old man frowned slightly and glanced at the ghost princess behind him with a suspicious look. He obviously didn't believe what this guy said.
However, Ding Xiaoyi trotted up to the ghost princess and looked up at her.
"What??" The ghost princess was stunned.
Ding Xiaoyi looked miserable, lowered his head and said, "I was wrong, just give me the snow gall!"
"Hmph...what did you say just now?!" She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked down at Ding Xiaoyi.
"Woof woof!!" Ding Xiaoyi was also unambiguous and shouted out cheerfully, since no one else could hear him.
It’s just an exaggerated mouth shape, but in the eyes of others, it means two other words: ‘Master’
The ghost princess burst out laughing instantly, her laughter was loud and clear, as if she hadn't been so happy for a long time.
He reached out and patted his shoulder: "Okay, okay, when it comes to shameless skills, the leader is number one, and you are definitely second!"
Her sarcastic remarks, in the eyes of everyone around her, completely became the gentle instructions of a master encouraging his disciples.
When the old man not far away saw this, a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes.
