Creating Urban Legends In Japan

Chapter 34: It's great to be a monk

Views:

"…Being a monk, you can earn enough money to live and comfortably just do the practice. Do a few more sessions, and you can be worry-free for the rest of your life."

"I think you're wearing a uniform. You're still a high school student. Don't you go to school to make money, improve your social status, or take care of your parents?"

"My parents were killed in a plane crash."

"Amitabha, I'm sorry."

"But your parents died, so you should join our temple. Without the care of your parents, you should feel the pressure of money."

"My task at this stage is to study."

"Don't worry, you can also learn to become a monk. I see that your hair is very long, is it because you don't want to shave your head? Actually, these are all irrelevant. The monks in China are different from other countries. Look at me, and I'm not bald."

Saying that, Xuan Hai took off his hat. Indeed, as he said, it is not a bald head, but also has fine black hair.

"You don't have to worry, you have spiritual power. Even if you don't do anything, as long as you become my apprentice, Nishi Hongan Temple will support you."

"And our monks are very popular with girls in China."

"What's more, Nishihonganji belongs to the Pure Land Buddhism, and marriage is very legal. And the monks have a high social status, especially Nishihonganji."

Hearing Genkai babbling along the way, Shinji Kanhara was not impatient.

He hoped that the other party would reveal some secrets to him, but obviously the old monk in front of him didn't have it.

Just now, the other party's easy way of overcoming the ghost still surprised him.

Because the other party seemed to be just chanting sutras, he didn't feel anything different, so he overcame the old man.

Originally, he thought that the other party was a very high-quality monk, but he didn't expect it to be no different from a salesman now.

"Although I'm a high school student, I'm not a child anymore. I'm an adult. Your words are no different from lying to children. It's very untrue." At the train station, Shinji Kamhara said lightly, "Master Xuanhai, you have been with me all the time. Talk about the rights that a monk can enjoy. Don’t monks have obligations that should be fulfilled?”

"Yes, if you meet a ghost, you will be overthrown. If you meet a resentful spirit, you will be overthrown."

Hearing this, Shinji Kamhara calmly said, "I feel like you have something to hide from me."

These words made Genkai look at Shinji Kagawa again and admire his sharp mind.

He twisted the Buddha beads, but shook his head gently, "Only if you join Nishi Hongan Temple, I can tell you in detail. Otherwise, I don't recommend you to know."

Ordinary people know that there are strange and inexplicable creatures in this world, and I am afraid they will lose their faith in struggle.

Thinking about it, he handed a business card to Shinji Kamihara.

"If you think about it, you are willing to join Nishihonganji Temple. You can contact me, no matter when." Said, Genkai took out a bright yellow booklet from his arms and gave it to Shinji Kanhara, "This is about spiritual power. Explanation... Spiritual power is soul power, and you can see ghosts because of soul power."

He could see that Shinji Shinji didn't want to join Honganji at the present stage, and he also had important things to do when he came to Tokyo, so he couldn't delay, so he didn't plan to continue to entangle him.

"Thank you." Shinji Kagawa didn't refuse, he just needed this.

Although it was impossible to join Nishihonganji, he remembered this favor.

Although as long as time is enough, he can understand the role of spiritual power. But time is the most precious thing.

"If you are recruited by a special class in the future, I hope you can consider Hongan Temple first." Xuan Hai didn't explain what the special class was, he smiled slightly, and chanted the Buddha's name, "If you encounter resentful spirits and have no ability to escape, you can also contact me. ."

"OK."

Soon, the two parted.

When Master Xuanhai disappeared from the crowd, Shinji Kamhara heaved a sigh of relief.

All the way down, he was very nervous.

He was afraid that the other party would find out that he was different, and that his neck had become a pendant notepad.

Moreover, he has been in contact with Yan Moai and Xiaoyan, and he doesn't know if there is any aura contaminated by them, so he is also afraid of being noticed by the other party.

But obviously, no.

Entering the tram, he put the booklet in his bag, intending to go back to school to read it.

He sat in the seat, closed his eyes and rested his mind. Although he was in good spirits due to spiritual power, his body was a little tired.

Most of the students on the train were wearing school uniforms.

They are all whispering to each other, or they are using their mobile phones to surf the Internet.

Although the voice was small, Shinji Kagawa could hear it clearly. These people are still talking about the urban legend of Hell Girl.

At midnight, the live broadcast of Magic Boy was blocked, and the video from station N disappeared. Many people were surprised, and they speculated on the reason on the Internet.

Many people who didn't believe it at first were shaken.

Of course... there are still people who don't believe it.

These people think that the magic boy is doing a show, and the live broadcast room is blocked, but it is just to make a fool, and they close the live broadcast room by themselves.

The video at station N was also deleted by Magic Boy himself.

In addition to being sprayed so much, the magical boy didn't come out to clarify, obviously he felt that things were getting bigger and panicked.

Anyway, they didn't believe it if they didn't see Hell Girl with their own eyes.

And the urban legend of Hell Girl, which was widely circulated among students, also began to come out of the circle.

After all, many working people have no spare time to pay attention to any urban legends. Only students with spare time will pay attention to these things.

But in the past two days, Hell Girl was really hot for a while, and the news that Magic Boy's live broadcast room was blocked contributed to the flames, and it quickly spread.

However, Shinji Kagawa was not happy, but felt a little worried in his heart.

He didn't know how long it took for the weirdness to appear, but apparently it wasn't too late.

After all, judging from the experienced investigation of Hongyin and Aokiji, the weirdness may have been around for a long time.

But ordinary people still think this is an ordinary world.

This revealed a message.

For special classes, there should be a way to deal with weirdness. Otherwise, it's hard to hold back news about weirdness.

However, the scarecrow belonging to Eguchi Luren has been brought back to the special class. The text is no longer generated, and he has no information.

Of course, worrying is useless. The top priority is to improve yourself, that's the key.

When he came to Yingqiu High School, when he was in class, he stopped sleeping on the table today. Instead, he took out the booklet that Master Xuanhai gave him from his schoolbag and looked at it carefully.

The booklet is thin, so there is not much content. But it is enough to understand the role of spiritual power.

Only the three stages of spiritual power have been discussed above.

In the first stage, people can vaguely feel the other side of the world, but because they can't see clearly, most of them will be frightened by some strange things.

Ordinary people at this stage generally do not sleep well.

The second stage is to open the eyes of yin and yang, to be able to clearly feel and see the existence of ghosts and resentful spirits.

At this stage, if you can use your spiritual power skillfully, you can already save the ghosts and souls.

And to save the dead, you don't actually need to chant scriptures, dance to gods, or do things.

As long as you communicate with spiritual power and appease the ghost soul for a period of time, you can directly transcend it. Of course, if you encounter a ghost, it is recommended to run away.

As for the third stage, the spiritual power is further transformed, which can generate spiritual pressure... and vaguely feel some special existence.

"A special existence?"

Apparently...

The so-called special existence is weird.
