Chapter 161: The Allure of the Past
In the Buddhist temple in the small building, the Virgin Mary sat cross-legged on the futon.
Sandalwood lingered incense and candlelight shining brightly on her unparalleled face, making her look extremely holy, as if she was the Bodhisattva god who enjoyed incense.
After the head of Yuanjue entered the room, he knelt down without saying a word, then fell to the ground one by one with a belly, chest, and forehead. Finally, he stretched his arms flat and pressed the ground in front of his head with his palms. Everyone was already provoked.
When the gift was completed, he still knelt on the ground, but straightened his waist, closed his arms and said, "Greetings to the Virgin."
The Virgin smiled and suddenly shone brightly. She said gently: "Get up and talk."
"yes."
Yuanjue stood up carefully, feeling a little nervous, thinking, How did the Virgin Mary change her sexual intercourse? In the countless years, when did you see her so peacefully?
"There are no outsiders here, do you still have to be polite to me?"
Yuanjue was stunned, then a hint of joy appeared on his face and said, "Yes, Mother."
"Um?"
The tone of this question was slightly higher, and it was obvious that the Virgin Mary was a little dissatisfied with this title.
Yuanjue's mind flashed like a flash, and he knelt down again and said, "The child misses his mother."
"Well, that's just right."
The Virgin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Get up and sit next to my mother. In the past century, you and your brothers will stay in Chang'an. It will be difficult for you without the strong people in the sect to support you."
Yuanjue's buttocks were just touched on the bench. When he heard the Virgin's words, he quickly stood up and said in panic: "Mom, the child is incompetent and unable to protect his younger brother. A few months ago, he was killed in Liuli Lane by General Yunhui of the Tang Dynasty."
"oh?"
The smile on the Virgin's face suddenly faded, and he was silent for a while, saying, "When he was sent to Kyoto, the host of the Tashilunpo Monastery made a judgment, saying that he was so sinister and extremely cruel. He would have a short life and die of death without expecting that his words would come true."
Yuanjue was even more surprised when he heard this, thinking that if it were the past, the Holy Mother would be furious when she heard the news of her younger brother's death, and then she would kill the enemy at any cost and would be severely punished. What happened today?
The Virgin’s vision swept away, and she knew what she was thinking. She said: “I was not stable in my past. Although I entered the sacred sequence, my realm has been stopped. Since I was defeated by Gu Qingcheng’s gun, I have been in seclusion for many years and practiced hard in my desolate state, and finally made a breakthrough in my state of mind. Only then will I return to the sacred realm.”
Yuanjue nodded to show that he understood.
"Since he is dead, everything is over, and I don't want to mess with it more about this matter. The future plan is the most important."
Yuanjue suddenly remembered something. He walked to the Buddha's niche and bounced his fingers. A mezzanine appeared under the Buddha's niche. He took out the wooden box in the mezzanine and respectfully handed it to the Holy Mother, saying, "These are three dragon marrow crystals given by Prince Duan. I wanted to order people to send them back to the Western Regions, but I was afraid that there would be changes on the long journey, so I kept waiting for my mother to enter Beijing. I would like to present it with my own hands."
"Dragon Marrow Crystal? This thing is not useful for my mother, but the living Buddha needs it very much."
When Yuanjue heard the Holy Mother say this, he knew that he had made a contribution to the living Buddha and felt a little relieved.
The Holy Mother thought about it and said, "When you go to Juehui later, he will guard the two golden-eyed divine vultures and order him to attach this object to the divine vulture and send it back to the Western Regions. This will be foolproof."
Yuanjue asked in surprise: "Jueyu? Did he come this time? Previously, two disciples in the yard accompanied him to work in the suburbs of Beijing, but two died and one disappeared. The child was still wondering where Jueyu went. It turned out that he actually fled back to the Western Regions and then went to Beijing with his mother and others?"
"good."
Yuanjue thought for a while and said, "I have inquired about killing the disciples in the courtyard. I was shocked to see the young master and worshiper of the Murong family in Yizhou. Yesterday, I found the bodies of two nephews of the Dingri Dharma King at the entrance of Babao Lane. Coincidentally, Murong Qianfan happened to appear here again, and the child thought."
The Holy Mother shook her head and said, "This is just an appearance. People are definitely not killed by Young Master Murong. However, they have Liangzi whom they met before and are now involved in Dingji Dharma King. They said they would not be able to hit the young master of the first family in the world, so as not to underestimate the methods of the Buddha Sect."
"Mother, please tell the child what to do?"
"You don't have to stand up for this matter. At the Double Ninth Festival, the disciples of the Buddhist sect were handed over to the Chongming Protectors, so he naturally knew how to deal with it."
Yuanjue was shocked again and asked, "Has he even come? How many masters from the sect have entered the capital this time? Is my mother really going to prepare for a big fight?"
The eyes of the Holy Mother flashed with a dark light and said, "It's not that we want to move, but because of the momentum, we have to move. There are things that the living Buddha needs in the tomb of the Yellow Emperor, and the things that the Demon Emperor covet is probably in the capital. Therefore, we must rely on each other and take each other's needs."
"My father, oh no, what does the Living Buddha need?"
"You have not entered the divine realm yet, and there are some things you should not ask about."
Yuanjue felt guilty and quickly lowered his head and said, "Yes, mother."
The Virgin looked at him with an unhappy expression and said, "How many genius treasures have entered your mouth in the past few decades? Haven't you sensed the signs of breaking the realm?"
Yuanjue said with shame on his face, "The child is incompetent and has been unable to break the mystery of the seal of the Great Sun Tathagata. His soul cannot be sublimated, so he has been wandering."
"Ah! From the beginning, you came into contact with Huanxi Zen, this path was a strange path, and Wei Niang only realized it after returning to the holy level."
"Practicing the Seal of the Great Sun Tathagata requires a perseverance and a clear mind and few desires. Just like a living Buddha, one death barrier will usually last for decades or even more than a hundred years, but joyful Zen is the opposite of the way. You are not a mother. From the beginning, you have entered the path by desire, so you have today's sluggishness."
Yuanjue heard the Virgin explain the pros and cons of the cause and effect of Joyful Zen for the first time, and felt inexplicable, and was a little surprised. He thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Can you say that the rest of your younger brothers are not the flesh and blood of the living Buddha?"
The Virgin's face was as calm as a lake and said, "Yes, they are all descendants of the furnace and cauldron that they found for their mother."
Yuanjue was shocked, but he didn't dare to continue asking questions.
The Virgin glanced at him and said, "Don't panic. The living Buddha practiced the true way of heaven, and complemented the way of desire of Mom. In the end, the furnace and cauldron became the essence of Taoism that we all need, so he not only did not object, but also had to strongly support it."
Yuanjue felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, but he didn't dare to say much.
The Virgin stood up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery in the courtyard, and the expression of remembrance appeared on her face, which further highlighted her beautiful face and incompetent beauty.
After a while, she suddenly said, "Originally, hundreds of years later, I finally found the most perfect and precious furnace outside the living Buddha. Gu Qingcheng, but this person didn't understand the charm. Not only did he reject the most wonderful thing in the world, but he also took action, hurting my soul and heart. Gu Qingcheng, are you so cruel and ruthless? "
The expression of the Virgin Mary turned to sorrow, and even a few drops of clear tears dripped from the corners of her eyes.
