With the joint efforts of the six masters of the Pure Land, the strange corpse was nailed to the ground without making too much waves. Even if the last evil spirit escaped, it did not cause too much damage to them, and they were all killed by them. The Buddha's light resisted, but the horrible thing happened next. The howling of the strange corpse before it died actually attracted a large group of strange corpses from the depths of the ancient temple, and they rushed over like a tide like a big wave. Generally, the Pure Land monks were submerged in it, and Fang Xing and the others were so frightened that their faces changed...
That strange corpse is extremely terrifying, to kill one of them, it still needs the three masters of the Pure Land to join forces, but now that so many of them are rushing forward together, it is simply a force that makes people hopeless, it is impossible to resist, far surpassing them the limit of ability...
I'm afraid that the saint is here, and seeing this situation, he has to frown!
Ignoring the sneak attack, Fang Xing and the others jumped off the roof for fear of being caught in it, and took Li Hongyi and Han Ying, who hadn't woken up yet, to cover up the aura of the group of people with the method of blinding their eyes. Along the corner of the wall, bypassing a group of strange corpses rushing madly, sneaking into the depths of the ancient temple, only the desperate roars of pure land monks can be heard behind...
Da Jinwu flew at low altitude with Li Hongyi on his back, Li Guiwa carried Han Ying on his back on his right, and little monk Shenxiu on his left. According to the Great Golden Crow, those monster corpses are not only formidable in strength, but also the evil spirit is even more difficult to entangle. If they stick to it, they will follow like a shadow, and it is difficult to get rid of it. However, it has eaten nearly a hundred Bodhi fruits, and it has not yet refined one of the hundred. When it is done, it is already covered in golden light, not to mention touching the strange corpse, even if it eats the strange corpse, there will be no evil spirit on the body.
It is precisely because of this that it is just right to let this guy take the lead, and Li Ying is also good. According to him, he is a ghost body of the ninth generation, and he is least afraid of these evil spirits. To others, this is even poisonous, but to him But it is no different from a elixir. Even his cultivation level has been greatly improved after entering this ancient temple. If it weren't for the fact that the monster corpse itself is also extremely difficult to deal with, he would almost want to stay in this ancient temple forever Cultivation, the eerie and eerie ancient temple, to him, is no less than a blessed land of immortality...
As for Fang Xing and Shenxiu, one is a disciple of Lingshan Buddha, and the other is Vajra Guardian, which is enough to resist the evil spirit. As for the others, it has nothing to do with their cultivation, and it is extremely difficult to resist the evil spirit, so they can only be protected by them in the middle. and move on...
The ancient temple is extremely vast, and it does not know how far it extends. If it is to explore, it will not be completed in a short period of time. However, Da Jinwu and others have been here for a long time, and they have already explored the terrain of this ancient temple, saving a lot of trouble. They rushed directly towards the depths of the ancient temple. Fortunately, most of the strange corpses were lured there by the monks from the Pure Land side, which made them much safer.
"I've seen these strange corpses before..."
Fang Xing looked at the strange corpses that came out of the darkness along the way, thinking secretly in his heart.
Although the appearance of these strange corpses was strange, he felt vaguely familiar, and soon remembered a picture he saw in the illusion mirror when he was looking for the Great Golden Crow and others: the white-clothed Bodhisattva slays demons, and he will not become a Buddha without crossing the common people!
The monsters in that scene of illusion are somewhat similar to these monster corpses, but in comparison, those monsters are spiritual and much smaller than these monster corpses, but their strength is also much stronger. If it is not about the relationship inside, These monster corpses look like the kind of ghosts that grow out of the corpses after the death of monsters, just like humans and corpses, the same species but different appearances!
"What is the origin of this ghost, it doesn't look like a creature in the world..."
Fang Xing's brows were tightly frowned, he was both shocked and suspicious, and he felt completely puzzled.
"This is it..."
After a tense and fast walk, I don't know how many narrow passages I passed, how many Buddhist temples I bypassed, and I didn't know how many strange corpses I avoided on the way, I finally found a big hall, which is impressively located in this place. It is located on the middle line of the ancient temple. From the perspective of Fang Xing and others, if the ancient temple has a square layout, then the location of this ancient temple should be facing the gate. , the top is almost invisible, and a vermilion door is mottled and decayed, half covered.
On both sides of the main hall, there should have been two pairs of Buddha's prayers, but at this time the wind erosion is so severe that they can't be distinguished, only the words "all living beings", "becoming a Buddha", "the other side", and "freedom" can no longer be connected. sentence, I can only secretly guess what it means...
"... All living beings are suffering, what's the use of becoming a Buddha, I can see the other side with ease!"
Shenxiu, on the other hand, saw such a couplet and pondered for a while, but suddenly his expression was shocked, and he muttered a sentence of Buddha's prayer.
"What's the meaning?"
Fang Xing and the others all looked at him in surprise, Shenxiu seemed to be thinking, and explained: "These two lines of Buddhist greetings were left by my Buddhist ancestor Ksitigarbha, it is said that Ksitigarbha should have been the first Three generations of Buddhas, but he failed to become a Buddha in the end. Legend has it that at that time, his Dharma was advanced, and he had already reached the realm of becoming a Buddha. Even the ancient temple that took him to the west to become a Buddha as a ancestor had already landed in front of him. , but when he looked to the west, it was a pure land, and he could get peace and ease by jumping over it. Looking behind him, he saw all living beings were ignorant and addicted to the sea of suffering, so he left these two sentences on the ancient temple of receiving and guiding Buddha, which means all living beings It’s all suffering, and it’s useless for me to become a Buddha alone. If I am the only one in the world who can become a Buddha at ease, then even if I see the other side, I don’t want to go there alone. Buddha, and because of this, the position of the third generation Buddha of Buddhism is vacant. The ancestor of Dizang has not yet become a Buddha... "
As he said it himself, his complexion gradually changed: "Buddha Ye appeared here, could it be... this is the legendary Ancient Temple?"
"What is the ancient temple of receiving and guiding?"
Fang Xing wished he could go up and beat Shenxiu up, so that the bald donkey could speak more quickly.
"The ancient temple of Jieyin is the ancient road before becoming a Buddha, and some people call it the road to becoming a Buddha, or the bridge to the other side!"
The little monk Shenxiu's eyebrows and eyes became more serious: "According to the legend, ten thousand years ago, whenever a monk attained the fruit of Taoism, a spiritual flower would descend from the sky, and the wonderful meaning of the fairy sound would lead the ancient temple to appear from the void. In the ancient temple, after passing this road to becoming a Buddha, you can reach the other side of the pure land and get the Buddhahood at ease... This pure land is not the pure land on the other side of the devil's abyss, but the real Buddhist fairyland, the Western Heaven Realm... However, since thousands of years , the Buddhahood is yet to be determined, the end of the Dharma is coming, and the ancient temple of receiving and guiding has not appeared for ten thousand years... "
Shenxiu said in a daze, a look of panic suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Senior Brother, it seems that Senior Brother Hui Neng is really a disciple of Buddha, if I had helped him obtain Buddhahood at that time, the Ancient Temple of Guiding would surely descend in front of him. Take him to the west to become a Buddha and an ancestor, it was only because you saved me that such changes appeared again... However, why is there so many monsters here in the Ancient Temple of Guiding?"
"How do I know that?"
Fang Xing stared, then looked at the great hall, but thought of a question, his eyes lit up slightly, he shook the little monk's head and said: "Don't talk to me about anything else, did you just say that after passing this One way to become a Buddha?"
Shenxiu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Yes!"
The Great Golden Crow also came over and interjected: "Isn't this the same as the road leading to the Golden Luan Palace in the mortal world, if you go up, you will be the emperor?"
Shenxiu was stunned for a moment, and smiled wryly, "That's fine too!"
Fang Xing suddenly lost his temper, and slapped Shenxiu on the back of the head: "Then what are you talking about, go!"
"To lead the ancient road, one must have the highest Buddhist principles to walk, otherwise, you can't pass this road..."
Shenxiu covered her head and explained with a bitter face.
Da Jin understood, and murmured: "Oh, just like the Golden Luan Palace, you have to be an emperor to enter, and if you are not good enough, you are also an eunuch!"
"You talk too much!"
Fang Xing kicked the Big Golden Crow aside, and solemnly said to Shenxiu: "Junior Brother, listen to me, your Dharma is already very powerful, so don't worry about him from the Buddhist disciples of the Bi'an Temple, this meeting may have already been blamed." The corpse is torn to shreds, and there are only two princes in the Buddhist sect, so whoever crosses this road first must be the emperor, don't listen to the nonsense of Jin Liuzi, I will send you there right away, and snatch the position of Buddha!"
"I… "
Shenxiu was full of hesitation, as if she lacked confidence.
"Little monk, you really have to go this way!"
At this time, it was Li Ying who stood up and said solemnly: "My sister and I have explored this ancient temple before, and found that it is not easy to leave here. The only way is probably this ancient road. Unfortunately, this There is a step-by-step Zen machine on this road, and if the Dharma is not deep, it is impossible to cross it. My sister has studied Buddhist scriptures, but she has only passed three passes. If you are, you should be able to pass this ancient road and find a way to rescue us, otherwise We can only be trapped here, we don't know how long we will be trapped..."
When such a practical issue was involved, Shenxiu's expression became serious, and after a long time, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go!"
In front of the leading hall, there are still four or five strange corpses scattered here and there, but outside the leading hall, within a hundred feet, there is not a single one. It seems that there is some kind of divine aura in the hall, forcing these monsters to die. The corpses did not dare to get close, and Fang Xing and the others sneaked all the way covering their breath, and did not directly fight against the strange corpses, but at this time, they had to rush over, no matter how difficult these strange corpses were, they had to fight them hard With a fight, only if Shenxiu is sent to the main hall and embarks on the road to becoming a Buddha, they will have the hope of leaving this ancient temple.
"I have the protection of the Dharma, first lead them away, and then Jin Liuzi will take them to rush over quickly!"
After a little discussion, Fang Xing decided on a strategy. Fang Xing carried the small tripod and flew out. The two sword demons behind him spread their wings and hovered majestically in the air. They yelled at the strange corpses in front of the ancient temple: "Monsters, do you want to eat my master's meat?"
The monsters in front of the main hall were stunned for a while, and after a while, they suddenly chased after Fang Xing with a fierce aura.
"I'll wipe it, come on..."
Fang Xing turned around and ran, flapping his wings like lightning, he didn't forget to turn his head and curse while running.
"Well, in ancient times, there was a Buddha who cut meat to feed eagles, and now there is brother Fang Xing who sacrificed his life to seduce demons. It's really admirable..."
The little monk Shenxiu shook his head and sighed, deeply moved.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry over!"
Without Fang Xingzai, the Great Golden Crow turned into an old man. Seeing that the little monk Shenxiu was easy to bully, he flapped his wings on Shenxiu's head, and threatened fiercely: "Listen, bald thief, you can't become a Buddha and a great golden man!" Lord, I will kill you Ang..."
