Chapter 169 The Main Hall collapsed!

A large number of people at the foot of the mountain crowded into the Mahavira Hall to burn a stick of incense in front of the Buddha. They pushed and shoved each other, and the sound of abuse soon developed into a fight. For a time, Fanjing Mountain was boiling and the sky was full.

At this moment, the Main Hall suddenly began to shake.

"No, it's an earthquake. This place is going to collapse!"

Someone yelled, and the people who had originally made a fuss and squeezed into the main hall, and those who finally squeezed in, now turned around and squeezed out.

The two streams of people collided together, causing everyone to flip over and chaos arose.

Finally, everyone ran out, and the main hall collapsed. The Buddha statue inside was knocked down by the beam on the roof and turned into pieces of wood on the ground.

Everyone looked at all this in stunned silence, "What should we do? Why did this hall collapse? The Buddha here is not working!"

"If the main hall can collapse, it will definitely not work here. Damn it, I have to come here from such a far away place!"

Everyone complained one after another. The village men and village women could not accept such a result, and they kept shouting: "I am the first incense burned, the first incense, no matter what, the first incense is still alive, right?" !”

"Where is the monk in the temple? Find him and ask!"

At this time, someone discovered that just when everyone was rushing to burn incense, the monks in the yard had disappeared.

Everyone then dispersed like birds and beasts and went to the temple to look for the monk.

A devout believer who often came to offer incense saw an old monk walking down the mountain at the gate of the temple and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Hey, isn't this the abbot? Did you know that the Main Hall collapsed?"

"Donor!" The old monk saluted first, and then said: "If it collapses, it will collapse. All appearances are false. If you see all appearances that are not appearances, then you will see the Tathagata. The Buddha does not need people to build images for him. There is no place for the Buddha. Not here!"

"Master Host, what you said is that the palace has collapsed. What will you do? By the way, are you going down the mountain? Where are you going?"

The old monk sighed and said the Buddha's name, "It's ridiculous that this poor monk has practiced Zen for more than 30 years and has been guarding a clay puppet and wooden stalk. He wants to escape from the sea of ​​suffering. It's really ridiculous to think about it. He was deceived by the world of mortals and committed many sins. My good Buddha is merciful and has not given up on me who have gone astray. He has given us Sanskrit sounds to brush away the dust on the spiritual platform for us. Now that we are enlightened, we will naturally go down the mountain to do good deeds to eliminate the sins we have committed over the years!"

What the old monk said was obviously beyond the believer's understanding. After the old monk finished speaking, he stopped talking to the believer, sang the Buddha's name again, and walked away.

When the Sanskrit sound disappeared and the golden light dissipated, Jiang You knew that his Qingming was difficult. This was considered a complete crossing. There was nothing else going on here. He left before the people below rushed up.

When I was going down the mountain, I saw monks coming down one after another. Apart from their clothes and the rosary beads hanging around their necks, they had nothing on them except the older monk who had a bamboo stick in his hand.

The monks were not afraid when they saw Jiang You in the woods nearby. They just looked at him and a few of them smiled at Jiang You.

Seeing that these monks were not afraid of him, Jiang You stepped forward to a young monk who smiled at him and said, "Monk, are you not afraid of me?"

"Donor, Buddhism spreads all over the world, why should the poor monk be afraid of you?"

Jiang You saw that these monks had been cleansed by Sanskrit sounds, and indeed they had the flavor of Buddhism's great compassion. "Master, I just want to ask, what day is it today?"

The monk was not surprised when Jiang You asked such a strange question, and answered in a kind tone, "Donor, today is January 1st."

It was still October when Jiang You entered the mountain. Unexpectedly, it was almost the New Year now. "Thank you, Master, for clarifying my doubts!"

After Jiang said this, he turned around and strode down the mountain. He was going to speed up, at least he had to return to his hometown in Qin Province before the Chinese New Year.

After Jiang You came down the mountain, many unsuspecting believers had just arrived and came up the mountain in an endless stream. Jiang You was also uncomfortable when everyone saw him, so he took the initiative to walk in the forest.

In the forest, he cut off a stone with his sword, polished it sharply, and then shaved off the beard on his face.

Not long after walking, I saw a yard by the roadside. There was a white sign at the door with the word "Tire Repair" written on it in red spray paint. It seemed that they made a living by repairing vehicle tires on the roadside. There were An old man was sitting on the horse and smoking a dry cigarette. When he saw Jiang You coming in, he was frightened and stood up immediately, but when he saw Jiang You's clean face, he did not run back to the house directly.

"What are you doing!" the old man asked. He spoke in the Guizhou dialect. Jiang You didn't quite understand what he heard, but it didn't stop him from understanding what the old man meant. Anyone who saw him like this would only ask a few questions. sentence.

"Old sir, is there a charging port here? My phone is out of battery. Can I charge it here?"

When the old man heard that Jiang You had a kind tone and that he had a mobile phone, he was probably not a savage, and he was not so nervous, he let Jiang You go inside to charge.

Jiang You put down the stele, pressing it down so much that the dirt in the courtyard sunk deep. He looked at the old man and marveled, "Young man, why are you carrying a stele on your back? Is it a gift for someone else?"

Jiang You couldn't understand the old man's dialect, so he just smiled at the old man. The old man didn't take it seriously. After entering the house, he even found a mobile phone charging cable for Jiang You and asked him to charge it in the living room.

After Jiang You plugged in his cell phone, he quickly turned it on. After the cell phone had a signal, it turned out that there were thirty missed calls.

Some of them were calls from my second uncle, two unknown numbers.

Jiang You first called his second uncle, and the phone was quickly connected.

"Jiang'er? Is it Jiang'er?"

"Second uncle, it's me!"

"Hahaha, you kid, I know you can't be killed by an ordinary landslide!"

The second uncle laughed loudly on the other end of the phone, but despite his lighthearted tone, the dozen or so missed calls on his phone were real.

Jiang You briefly told his second uncle what happened when he experienced a landslide, the high-speed train was buried, and he just walked out of the mountains.

"That's good. It's good that everyone is fine. You don't know that the world is going crazy during this period!" The second uncle told Jiang You some of the things he learned through his own channels. Only then did Jiang You know that such a thing had happened in the world. There are so many miracles. The blue fog is not just here. The whole country and the whole world were shrouded in blue fog that day. My second uncle also mentioned Luoshan in particular. The blue fog dissipated the next day. But Luoshan is still filled with blue mist, and it is getting denser and denser.

The second uncle sent people in to check, but none of the people who went in came back!

Jiang You was worried after hearing this, but he just told his second uncle not to enter Luoshan. There was a great terror in Luoshan!

The two chatted for a while, but the second uncle did not dare to tell his family about Jiang You's disappearance, which made Jiang You feel at ease. The second uncle was coming back for the Chinese New Year this year, so the two agreed to meet in his hometown.
