Chapter 1347 The Secret of the Ghost Buddha (22)
The so-called "non-empty realm color method" is actually a method of withdrawing the mind and observing the objective operation of all things.
This method originated from the "heartless sect" and is not difficult to practice.
After Su Wu listened to Ji Xingzhou's explanation of the key points of this method, he had completely practiced the method. He had the greatest and broadest "emptiness" in his mind, and his own nature and will were all dispersed in the emptiness. Then, in the empty realm, he saw his body left in the deep alley.
Afterwards, Su Wu broke the empty realm again, and his nature and soul returned to himself. He opened his eyes and said to Ji Xingzhou: "This method can slightly increase the nature and will when practiced, but compared with other methods, the practice of nature and will is too slow."
Although the non-empty realm color method has its own unique features, compared with Su Wu's mastery of various major methods, only the unique feature of "withdrawing the mind and making all things exist" makes him feel desirable. As for other aspects, the performance of the non-empty realm color method is ordinary, even mediocre.
Ji Xingzhou nodded: "I left the Heartless Sect and studied in various schools because I was making slow progress in the Unempty Realm Color Law."
He looked up at Su Wu who had stood up, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"What Buddhist temples were there in Chang'an and its surrounding areas in the fifth year of Kaiyuan? Do you know?" Su Wu asked Ji Xingzhou.
When Ji Xingzhou heard this, he knew that Su Wu was going to arrange something for him to do. He was not opposed to doing things, but leaving him aside and imprisoning him was the most unbearable thing for him. He stood up with Su Wu, recalled a little, and said to Su Wu: "In Chang'an in the fifth year of Kaiyuan, Xingshan Temple was the head of Buddhism, followed by Ci'en Temple, which was too powerful to be eliminated, and then the "Songshan Temple" founded by Shenxiu.
The current Songshan Temple should be managed by "Fazhi".
This monk practiced for more than 20 years and achieved the "Arhat Fruition". His body did not decay after death, and could be transformed into a pagoda, which contained "whale treasures". Even after death, his body could be used as a "Buddhist pagoda" to contain evil and strange things with the whale treasures in his body.
At that time, I was defeated by Fazhi's flesh shell and the masters of Buddhism and Taoism."
"The Tang Dynasty today may be similar to the Great Tang Dynasty you have experienced in the past, but it is fundamentally different - too many things are still hidden in the present, but if you investigate carefully, you will find that the details and even the final results are far apart." Su Wu shook his head and interrupted Ji Xingzhou's memories of the past.
He looked at Ji Xingzhou's face, which was still as pale as powder even after he had a body, and he became thoughtful.
Ji Xingzhou himself contained many evil spirits.
After his fall, all kinds of evil spirits were suppressed by Buddhism and Taoism, but the evil spirit contained in Ji Xingzhou's face disappeared. People at that time speculated that the evil spirit contained in his face was very strange, and it was very likely that he hid with Ji Xingzhou's spirit.
——At that moment, Su Wu could conclude that the evil spirit contained in Ji Xingzhou's face was indeed quite strange. Under the burning light and fire in the Yuanhuang Temple, this spirit was not damaged too much. When Su Wu reflected this spirit with the Yuanhuang face, the Yuanhuang face shook. He vaguely suspected that this 'face spirit', like the 'hidden paper' he obtained, had a trace of the 'three absences' aura left on it.
Are the two related?
Su Wu pinched the thoughts flying in his mind.
He couldn't take off Ji Xingzhou's mask to study him at the moment. He would make his move after the two sides were familiar with each other and the other party was not so afraid of him.
Ji Xingzhou didn't know the deep meaning in Su Wu's eyes, and continued: "In addition to Songshan Temple, Ci'en Temple, and Xingshan Temple, I remember there were also famous Buddhist temples such as Tiefu Temple, Jinguang Temple, and Baima Temple. I wonder if there is any difference between the current situation and my memory?"
"There is no obvious change."
Su Wu said to Ji Xingzhou: "Now I want to ask you for help. I hope you can hide in the Buddhist temples and take care of the abbots, the chief monks of each temple, and other eminent monks in these Buddhist temples for me to ensure that they will not be taken advantage of by evil and killed by ghosts within three days."
"A certain person takes care of the abbots and chief monks of the temples?" Ji Xingzhou asked.
"Your Majesty's face contains a strange and cunning person. One person should be enough. Do you think you can't do so many things by yourself and will be stretched to the limit?" Su Wu asked Ji Xingzhou with a smile.
Ji Xingzhou then laughed: "You are confident in me.
As long as you are confident, I am enough."
When he spoke, the sun was falling from the sky and shining on Ji Xingzhou, which made Ji Xingzhou's "light split and shadow" and turned into seven or eight Ji Xingzhous in an instant.
The alley where several "people" stood suddenly seemed a little crowded.
"I will go to work now." The nine Ji Xingzhous bowed to Su Wu together. Su Wu opened his eyes between his eyebrows. What he saw was still the nine Ji Xingzhous. The nine Ji Xingzhous, under the reflection of the eyes, seemed to be "real"!
The reincarnation intestine locked on Ji Xingzhou's soul and also stayed on these nine "Ji Xingzhous"!
Su Wu looked at the pale faces of the nine Ji Xingzhous again, and he suddenly felt something in his heart - perhaps Ji Xingzhou's face did not contain any evil spirits.
Or perhaps the evil spirits he contained were far less strange than he had guessed.
The real strangeness might be that his face itself was a kind of "old sacrifice mark"!
Thinking of Ji Xingzhou's mention of his own "hollow" state, he saw the self-consciousness emerging in his body, and the so-called "Emperor Yuan's facial makeup" he mentioned, Su Wu became more and more close to Ji Xingzhou's face, which was originally the "old sacrificial mark" like his old sacrificial eyes, faint hair, and old sacrificial marks.
He now has the "old sacrificial marks" to cover the old sacrificial marks on his body. Even if he shows the ability of the old sacrificial eyes in front of Ji Xingzhou, Ji Xingzhou will not react at all - he should not have sensed Su Wu's old sacrificial eyes, but he must have discovered that Su Wu himself has "fair hair".
——
After Su Wu and Ji Xingzhou parted ways, they returned to the Zen temple of Ci'en Temple to settle down.
At present, Tao Zu, Hong Renkun, and Jianzhen have followed the bad people gathered in front of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to explore the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. They have no news to send back.
The lack of news also shows that the three have not gained anything in the Wild Goose Pagoda for the time being.
Danjia, Qingzi, Zhuoma Zunsheng, and Jiang Yingying followed Su Wu's arrangement and went to block the human traffickers who were involved with Monk Bukong.
Now the only one left in Su Wu's Zen room was the child he had saved.
The girl was sleeping soundly on the Zen bed, and she didn't look anxious all day after experiencing life and death. Su Wu was sitting on a chair in the room, and when he was thinking, the "Ten Extinction Knife" in his hand suddenly exuded a wisp of inexplicable charm.
The graceful and beautiful figure of the woman was reflected on the mirror-like blade.
The woman walked out of the blade and stood beside Su Wu.
She looked cold and looked at the old tree in the Zen courtyard outside the window, and she didn't speak for a long time.
This woman is "Ping Lingzi".
Ping Lingzi and Qingzi were both resurrected in the spring pool of Dongliu Island. However, Qingzi did not like to be alone, but she preferred to stay in the Ten Degrees Blade and remain silent.
"Zhu Zhaojun, do you think that what is happening now is related to the 'Ghost Buddha'?" Just when Su Wu thought that Ping Lingzi would remain silent for a long time, Ping Lingzi turned his head and looked at him, and his voice flowed through his ears like a clear spring.
He pondered for a moment and said, "There are too few clues now, and we cannot determine the root cause of these things.
But according to my intuition, there may be traces of the 'ghost Buddha' here."
Su Wu said this and whispered, "The 'living beings stone' transformed by the ghost Buddha can create a fierce monster like 'Tamamonomae'. The level of the ghost Buddha itself must be very high.
It should be like the three pure intestines, Lu Mu and other fierce monsters, and have the characteristics of 'the only one in the heavens'.
It should be staying somewhere, but the Tang people today have never discovered the existence of this 'ghost Buddha'. Why is this? What? "
Ping Lingzi pursed his lips and knelt down beside Su Wu, his hair falling from her ears, covering her small and cold face: "If it is a Buddha, why is it given the bad name of 'ghost'?
If it is a ghost, why is it disguised as 'Buddha'?
Ghost Buddha, is it a ghost or Buddha in essence?
Or is it that Buddha is originally a ghost?
Zhuzhao Jun, do you think it through? "
Su Wu heard what Ping Lingzi said, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind - he vaguely felt that he had grasped something - ghost Buddha, is it a ghost or Buddha in essence?
If the ghost Buddha cannot be found by searching in a tricky way, can the truth of the ghost Buddha be found by the way of 'seeking Buddha'?!
Ghost Buddha, is it really Buddha?!
The Buddhist sect claims that there is a "Buddha" in the nature of the world, and everyone can become a Buddha. Could it be that the so-called "ghost Buddha" that is the unity of all thoughts is actually the "Buddha" in the nature of all living beings that has appeared? !
The so-called "seeking Buddha" is "seeing the Tathagata", and "seeing the Tathagata Dharma" is "becoming the Buddha Dharma from one's own nature" - if the ghost Buddha is in the air, then one must prove the Buddha nature and live in the air forever, in order to explore the truth of the ghost Buddha!
Su Wu's mind was turning a hundred times.
After he gathered his mind, he looked around, but he could no longer see the figure of the kneeling girl. He turned his head to look at the Ten Extinction Sword beside him. The blade was like a mirror, reflecting his face.
