Above the Sky

Chapter 60: Summoned by Jue Luan, the Tower of Relics

Views:

After coming out of the bone cave, Yun Qing realized that it was already dawn, and Aman was standing there waiting for her covered in snow.

"Come." Yun Qing called Aman to him, put one hand on his body and the other hand pressed the square inch lamp, and instantly put him in the lamp.

She has already guessed about the matter of the bone cave, and it has little to do with her at present. From now on, she just needs to go back to the temple and wait for an opportunity to take away the idea of Lianxin Xukong's hidden concept, and then escape from Nanfeng Continent.

There is also a reason for leaving this continent. Now the three major orthodoxy and the two holy places in the South are at a stalemate. If there is no decisive change, it is estimated that it will continue forever. In the north, according to what Yunqing has learned so far, Guiling Temple may have to make big moves, so it will not always be stable. For Yun Qing, the most important thing after acquiring the concept of the lotus heart and the void is to find a clean place to retreat, neither north nor south is suitable.

As she walked towards Zizai Cliff in the north against the wind, she conceived how to use the tiny clues obtained from this bone cave. This may not have much to do with her, but it can be used anyway. If it is well grasped, it may be able to trip Mianfenglang and Guiling Temple and prevent them from chasing her.

After thinking so carefully, Yun Qing soon arrived at the foot of Zizai Yashan.

She was about to climb up directly with the Zen stick, when she saw two young monks coming down from above. The two young monks looked like they were just outer disciples, and they struggled a lot when climbing the cliff. One of them lowered his head to look down the mountain from time to time, and found Yun Qing at a glance.

"Senior Yunqing!" The man shouted excitedly, and another young monk also looked down.

Yun Qing usually doesn't show up much, and most of the time she is either practicing behind closed doors or going to Zizai Cliff to ask Jue Luan for advice, so the two disciples calling her name out of nowhere made her feel a little weird.

"Amitabha, what's the matter with you two?" Yun Qing stopped and said gently.

The two quickly came down from the top, ran to Yun Qing and said respectfully: "Senior Yun Qing, our master sent us to summon you back."

Yun Qing asked in surprise, "Master?"

"Master Jueluan will preside over the grand ceremony recently, and the selection of a successor is of great importance, so he summoned a group of inner disciples to go back." A disciple explained that he looked at Yun Qing with admiration in his eyes meaning.

Yun Qing felt that no matter how he heard these words, something was wrong.

First of all, which sect has not carefully prepared for such a thing as the selection of a direct successor for a hundred years, why did this happen suddenly after she left for a month? Furthermore, among the disciples of the inner sect, there are quite a few who are profound in Dharma. These people have gone through a long examination and are capable of standing on their own. Why take back a half-assed person like her who has never even received the precepts? The most important thing is that although Jue Luan is a good direct disciple, shouldn't the selection of direct disciples be carried out by the host, elders, etc.? Why can he bypass everyone and directly handle this kind of thing

Yun Qing thought a lot in just a short moment, she quickly pinched a mirage to confuse the two outer disciples, and then released Aman.

"Stand still."

Yun Qing raised her hand and put it on Aman's heart, and the black flames spread up little by little, twisting into incomprehensible patterns. She branded words on Aman's body with the big sun and black sky wheel, and at the same time covered up the cause and effect for him with the book of heaven.

"Go over there, to the foot of that snow mountain."

Yun Qing pointed to the boundary mountain between Guiling Temple and Mianfenglang established two years ago in the distance, and said to Aman.

Amang has no sense, and the risk of crossing the boundary mountain is very high, but she may not be able to get away for a while, so now this matter can only be entrusted to him. She had participated in the conversion ceremony of Guiling Temple, and even practiced the marrow washing scriptures, so she would be noticed once she crossed the boundary mountain. On the other hand, there is no imprint of either party on Aman's body, and it is quite convenient to travel between the two sides. The only flaw is that he is a man and cannot enter the Sleeping Phoenix Corridor.

There seems to be some changes in Guiling Temple now, keeping Aman away from here can not only save his life but also facilitate Zheng Zhenzhen.

After Amang disappeared into the vast snow, Yun Qing withdrew the illusion.

"Amitabha, let's go back to the temple first." Yun Qing clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name.

The two nodded repeatedly, and after resting for a while, they went up to the top of the mountain together with Yun Qing. The two of them, one with the name of Yuanzheng and the other with the name of Yuanshen, both grew up in the temple. It seems that the two of them were the only ones sent out to summon the inner disciples. Most of the other inner disciples had received precepts, and there were other ways to notify them.

"Master is on the Cliff of Zizai. I don't see anyone before the ceremony. Please go to the abode to rest first." Yuan Zhengfang had a big face, and he seemed to be straightforward.

Yun Qing asked while walking into the temple: "Does anyone know the reason for selecting the direct disciples this time?"

Both of them followed behind her, Yuanzheng shook his head in confusion, while Yuanshen showed some hesitation on his face.

"Yuan Shen, do you know what's inside?" The advantage of mind is that it is not restricted by the body itself, Yun Qing can know the expressions of the two without turning around.

Yuanshen's face turned pale, he had been in the field for a long time, and he also knew that such things as the selection of the heir were not something he could talk about.

Yun Qing said gently: "You can just talk, I have to know what I should do when I come back this time?"

Yuan Shen said: "Didn't you come back to participate in the selection for the successor?"

When he thought that the person in front of him might be a future direct disciple, he felt hot, and immediately said to Yun Qing: "Senior Liao Yuan entered the stupa a few days ago, presumably Master Jue Luan was doing it to prevent..."

"Yuan Shen!" Yuan Zheng reprimanded with an angry face, and then apologized to Yun Qing, "Amitabha, my junior brother made a lie, he didn't mean to be disrespectful to Senior Yuan."

stupa

Yun Qing was stunned, the eminent monks would leave relics after sitting down, and the relics of the eminent monks of Guiling Temple were all stored in the relic tower, which is a bit like the Yaoque Pagoda in Shiwan Dashan. However, the Yaoque Pagoda can only enter but not exit, but the Stupa is different. Whenever the disciples feel that the limit is approaching and the bottleneck is difficult to break, they can go to the pagoda to close the death pass. If the Buddha is certified, he will come out of the pagoda. If not, he will sit in the pagoda directly.

In this way, it is still necessary for Jueluan to select a direct successor at this juncture.

Because the reason why Mianfenglang and Guiling Temple can maintain a relatively fragile balance is because there is not much difference in strength between the two sects. The strength and future of these two sects are basically determined by this group of direct disciples, and there are countless direct disciples, each sect has exactly ten people. Right now, Yuan has entered the stupa, and Guiling Temple has one out of ten chips, so this vacancy must be filled as soon as possible.

Yuan Shen meant that if he entered the stupa, he might not be able to get out, so Yuan Zheng reprimanded him.

Yun Qing comforted: "It's okay, there are many twists and turns in the practice."

Seeing that Yun Qing is easy to talk to, Yuan Shen and Yuan Zheng feel relieved. Yuan Shen said: "Thank you, senior."

While running the heavenly book to investigate the loopholes in the temple's guardian formation, Yun Qing casually said: "Recently, Senior Brother Jueluan has been working hard, right? There are big ceremonies and snowstorms, and the matter over the Mianfeng Corridor is also on his head. "

"Master Zu has been guarding Zizai on the top of the cliff. He only said that he wants to preside over this grand ceremony, and the presider is busy with other things." Yuan Shen said tactfully.

This generation of host is of the same generation as Jue Luan, but Yun Qing doesn't know which one is higher or lower in terms of cultivation. She slowed down the movement of her true energy, and spread the fluctuations of the Heavenly Book, trying to cover the entire Guiling Temple.

"By the way, was Senior Brother Jueluan the one guarding Zizai Cliff?" Yun Qing asked suddenly.

Yuanzheng thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "It was Senior Zihong before, but after Senior Zihong passed away, his disciple Senior Jueluan took over the duties temporarily."

Yun Qing suddenly remembered the allusion that Jue Luan told her about his master publishing books, and he was a little curious about this senior with the word "Zi" in his heart.

"In this way, senior brother Jueluan was also carefully cultivated by him, no wonder he can bear this important task now."

Yuanzheng shook his head again: "Master Jueluan got started after Senior Zihong passed away."

Now Yun Qing was really surprised. In Buddhism, there are many examples of accepting disciples after sitting down. The senior master often has a feeling for the successor who has Buddha nature. Before he died, he pointed out a direction and asked someone to find him. The babies born at that time were brought back to the temple to be carefully cultivated as successors.

However, most of these somewhat legendary examples are very old, and she did not expect Jue Luan to choose them in this way.

"Back then, senior Zihong sat down, the room was full of strange fragrances, and the sky was full of music. He pointed to the place where the sun was rising in the east, and the seniors in the temple went to investigate immediately. Master Luan was able to understand Buddhism when he was still in his infancy, and his aptitude and comprehension are all excellent, he is very similar to Senior Zihong."

Yun Qing compared Jue Luan with Zi Hong in the story. Zi Hong was very talented at Jue Luan's age, but a little frivolous, but Jue Luan was similar to him in aptitude, but he lacked that impetuous air. Even better than Zihong.

She asked a few more important things, but although the two young monks had been in the monastery for many years, they were only outer disciples and didn't know much. After saying a few words, she politely sent Yuanzheng and Yuanshen away.

"Zihong, the stupa..." Yun Qing dipped in the water from the square inch cup and sketched the general appearance of Guiling Temple in the air.

She has figured out a rough idea of the guardian formation. The formation is centered on Zizai Cliff where Jueluan sits, and extends towards the surrounding temples. There is almost no difference in the strength of the formation, and there are very few loopholes. The only small faults are not something she can shake. Since there is no good breakthrough in terms of geographical location, it can only depend on the weather and people. With Yun Qing's current level of cultivation, it is almost impossible to use the scriptures to conceal the secrets from so many monks with profound Buddhist teachings in Guiling Temple.

This is different from hiding her own fate. She just came out of Yaoque Pagoda not long ago, and there is not much karma involved, so it is easy to hide. However, the idea of the lotus heart emptiness and storage concept has been passed down for many years, and it involves a lot of cause and effect, so it is difficult to hide it.

The Buddhist scriptures pavilion is on the south side of the temple, and Yun Qing must go north if he wants to leave this mainland. Since the theft of the authentic book cannot be concealed at all, and the existence of the guardian array prevents her from breaking through the array to escape from any angle, then she can only find a way to create opportunities.

"So..." Yun Qing's finger slid towards the north of Guiling Temple.

The stupa stood in that corner vicissitudes and silence.
