my weird life

Chapter 430 Really Like, Really Like?Buddha is a demon? (twenty two)

tread, tread, tread...

In the darkness, the alternate footsteps of Su Wu and An Gang sounded.

Not long after entering the cave, An Gang regretted it.

He had a terrifying feeling that there were many eyes silently watching him, but it was even dark here, so he could only follow Su Wu by his voice.

"Mr. Zhuzhao, it's too dark here, I can't see anything!
Let's not go too deep, let's leave first! " An Gang shouted as he rushed to Su Wu who was ahead.

Su Wu's calm voice came into his ears, making his mind a little more stable: "What are you afraid of? It's really not possible, we turned our heads and went back, it's okay, Mr. An Gang!"

An Gang subconsciously nodded in agreement with Su Wu's words,

The next moment, he turned around and looked back——

Obviously just walked out not far away,

But now the light projected from the entrance of the cave can no longer be seen!

An Gang trembled in his heart, he didn't dare to agree with Su Wu's words anymore, and continued: "It's too dark here, I can't see anything, Mr. Zhuzhao!"

"Just follow me forward."

Su Wu's response reached An Gang's ears.

He still remembered that Mr. Zhuzhao clearly had a fire starter in his hand. When he was eating outside at noon, An Gang saw that the other party used it.
Why is it that in such a dark environment, Mr. Zhuzhao just refuses to blow on the torch, and just lights up anything to light up the surrounding environment?

Thoughts are spinning in my mind,

An Gang accidentally stepped on a stone on the ground,
The whole person's center of gravity was unstable, and he staggered and fell to the side!
Bang!
As he expected, the pain of hitting a hard rock on the mountain wall did not appear.

As if hitting the flesh of a living person,
Did not feel the slightest pain!
what happened?

An Gang is creepy!

At this time, Su Wu's voice sounded from his side: "Are you all right? Mr. An Gang."

"It's okay, it's okay..." An Gang responded subconsciously. After saying the words, he realized that Zhuzhao was standing beside him, and he bumped into him just now?
No wonder I didn't feel any pain...

An Gang subconsciously still felt a little strange,

But he couldn't think too much at the moment, so he quickly apologized to Su Wu: "Did I bump into you? Sorry, I'm so sorry!"

"It's okay."

Su Wu shook his head,

Let go of the palm holding An Gang.

He turned his head to look at the inner wall of the cave that was only a short distance away from him.

——The purple-red strange lines are all over the mountain wall, and pieces of 'stones' that resemble human limbs, organs, and even complete human figures are inlaid on the mountain wall,
With the flow of the purple lines, these stones are also slowly wriggling!

take a closer look,

Su Wu could even see the subtle expressions on those people's faces. When he was staring at those 'human-shaped stones',
They will also open their eyes and look at him!
He took An Gang and continued to move forward.

The "human-shaped stones" on the mountain walls on both sides also gradually changed.

The "human-shaped stones" that appeared at the entrance of the cave were all men and warriors with club-shaped buns or shaved heads. "They" had vivid expressions, and they looked at Su Wu and Su Wu who entered the cave with fear. An Gang,

lips move,

Stretching the limbs,

Wanting to protrude from the stone wall, he asked Su Wu for help.

The further you go into the cave, the "human-shaped stones" on the surrounding mountain walls are not just men,
There are also women wearing Wu clothes;
poorly dressed fat women;
Children and old people gathered together.

The expressions on the faces of these 'human-shaped stones' have been solidified. They are inlaid on the mountain wall, motionless, like exquisite and detailed relief sculptures.

Among the many "human-shaped stones", there are various stones shaped like viscera and human limbs.

But some viscera are too big,
It doesn't look like human internal organs, but rather the internal organs of some huge beasts.

These viscera-shaped stones reminded Su Wu of the horses whose guts had been emptied in that deserted village.

The entourage brought by Ping's ghost warrior to the deserted village disappeared without a trace.

Tsuna Watanabe and Hongzheng have been dragged into the Rashomon, and have been reduced to a certain death.

The samurai they brought will be selected for Rashomon, but there is still no news.

These two groups of people should have been taken away by the Li Gui who can turn the mud into quicksand and bury people silently around the deserted village-they are most likely dead and turned into stones on the mountain wall.

Into a 'killing stone'.

Therefore,
Is the killing stone actually transformed from a living person? !

Those 'five viscera stones' and 'placenta stones' are actually the internal organs of humans or animals? !
The 'killing stone vein' itself is fierce,
it never dies,

Always 'alive'? !

After the so-called ghost king 'Tamazaoqian' was exterminated by Jianzhen, the nine tails combined with the Dongliu Island iron veins to form the killing stone veins, is it also false? !
But—the grandparents of Master Huche, who obviously participated in the battle to exterminate 'Tamazao-qian',

What secret is buried in it?
to the end of the cave,

Ahead is a huge stone chamber.

There are many traces of excavation in this stone chamber.

The 'human-shaped stone' faces connected to this ashlar chamber are lifelike, but they will never give people the feeling that they have become real people - the human-shaped stones here are too refined, and the appearance of living people will not look like them exquisite.

These 'human-shaped stones' at the end,
It is exactly the same as the 'human stone' that Genji sent to An Gang's sword casting institute.

—The two may have been the same thing.

In the corner of the spacious stone chamber, there are hammers, chisels and many other tools for mining ore.

On the flat mountain wall formed by stacking and inlaying many "human stones" and "five internal organs stones" on the side, people deliberately excavated fireplaces, and there are still a lot of charcoal piled up in the fireplaces.

There is even a pool on the ground, which is full of foul-smelling black liquid.

Several stone tables are placed around the black liquor,

On the stone table, there are iron felts, axes, hammers, iron poles, gloves and other things.

All the furnishings in the stone room gave Su Wu an extremely familiar feeling.

——Such a variety of decorations are clearly all kinds of decorations that can only be found in a blacksmith's shop.

There is no shortage of smelting furnaces and calciners,

Iron felts, hammer heads, iron poles and other iron tools are quite a lot!

There is even a hill-like pile of charcoal in the corner of the stone room!
There must have been someone here who forged something with the help of the killing stone here!
Possibly swords and weapons,
It could be any other iron too!
Su Wu saw a rectangular hole like a shrine dug out on the stone wall facing the cave passage, and there seemed to be something vaguely inside.
Above the 'shrine', there is also an oil lamp hanging.

"An Gang, we may have discovered something extraordinary.

As a knifesmith,
This is simply the dream of all swordsmiths! "Su Wu looked at the oil lamp on the opposite side, and spoke to An Gang. He made his tone vibrato to show that he was very excited.

Hearing his words, An Gang tensed up all over: "Yes, what is it?
Mr. Zhuzhao, what you see may not be true.
may be false,
Do not believe it! "

In such a dense darkness, An Gang couldn't see at all.

He put himself in the shoes of others, thinking that Su Wu was in the same situation as himself.

Neither can see,
How did the other party see those 'remarkable things' and 'the dream of a swordsmith'?Obviously Mr. Zhuzhao was bewitched by some terrifying existence!

"wait for me here,
You'll see what I saw in a moment..."

Su Wu didn't explain more to An Gang, he patted the other side's shoulder, and walked away from the other side.

An Gang reached out to grab him, but only caught a handful of air.

Previously in the cave passage, Su Wu did not light up the lights so that An Gang could see the surrounding scene - because the 'human stones' in the passage were too scary!

They're just real people turning to stone,
There are bloodstains on his body!
Seeing this scene, An Gang was afraid that he would faint from fright.

But after reaching the end of the passage, the "human stones" here are all what An Gang knows the "human stones" should look like. Their faces are exquisite and "lifelike", and each of them puts their hands together, without the slightest sense of terror.

Instead, there is a strange and magnificent beauty.

Regarding the current scene, Su Wu felt that An Gang would still be terrified after seeing it—how could there be such a large number of "human stones" here?
But it shouldn't be enough to frighten him into a faint.

"Mr. Zhuzhao, be careful!

Don't be impulsive! "

An Gang was still shouting from behind, hoping to pull Su Wu back.

His voice echoed in the cave.

Su Wu had already walked into the cave, approaching the 'shrine' on the stone wall facing the cave passage.

The excavation site of the 'shrine'-like rectangular hole is not too high. Standing in front of the stone wall, Su Wu was able to look straight at the 'shrine' and see what was inside the 'shrine'.

Inside the shrine was a piece of yellowed paper with a column of bloody characters on it.

Outrageous malice and obsession burst out from that line of handwriting,
When it fell into Su Wu's ears, it turned into countless sharp screams: "True, true? The Buddha is a demon?!"

"True, true? The Buddha is a demon?!"

"True, true? The Buddha is a demon?!"

Alarm bells rang in Su Wu's heart,

In an instant, move the sword of wisdom——

Wisdom sword once,
Thousands of magical thoughts are turned into ashes!

He stared at the column of writing in the 'Buddhist altar': Zhenru, Zhenru?Buddha is a demon? !
The writer didn't know that practicing Buddhism went astray, so he left this interrogation containing monstrous malice and obsession,

Or does it set a problem here, leaving it to the latecomers—behind the blank paper, there is something vaguely, if this is a "problem", it seems that the only way to pick up the blank paper is to solve the problem. Paper.

Su Wu stretched out his hand to take off the white paper,

But he just put his hand into the altar,
The surrounding human stones and five internal organs stones all squirmed away, clustered around his arm that was stretched into the altar like quicksand, he could use his fierce power to forcibly peel off the white paper,

But who knows if removing the blank paper like this will trigger other changes in the killing stone vein?
So, after Su Wu thought for a while, he temporarily gave up trying to untie the paper with brute force.

He stared at the column of blood characters,
After thinking for a long time,

Explained in a voice: "Don't look for it from others, and you are far away from me. I am going alone now, and I can meet you everywhere.

He is me now, and I am not him now, so what should I do to get a good relationship. "

What Su Wu said was a Buddhist gatha left by a Zen master in the Tang Dynasty when he was enlightened.

These eight lines of Buddhist gatha are explaining what 'true suchness' is.

Truth is all emptiness and earth, all real things.

It is what I saw and heard in this instant.

it's me'.

But 'I' is not true,

I'm just a part of it.

Truth is all things in the eyes of all beings, and all beings in the eyes of all beings.

But not all things in my eyes, not all beings in the eyes of 'I'.

This is the truth.

The Zen master who left these eight lines of Buddhist gatha was named Dongshan Liangjia, and his birth and death years were just before "Jianzhen". The verse serves as a response to the "Question of Truth".

If "Jianzhen" just wants to leave questions to test the latecomers,
His answer already fits the topic, and he can pass through the 'Question of Truth'.

However, if 'Jianzhen' himself falls into the inner demon,
By leaving this interrogation, it can attract the dormant guards in the vein of killing stone. Su Wu felt that he could not resist Jianzhen's bewildered inner demon, so he would immediately take An Gang out of here,

Never think of him!
The only people who know the trace of this killing stone mine and hold the secret key to enter the mine are Axiong and Toshio Inoue.

Even Toshio Inoue is just an extra, just taking care of this thing instead of Axiong!

The monks related to Ah Xiong,

The most famous one is naturally 'Jianzhen'.

This is also the premise of Su Wu's assumption. Let's think of "Jianzhen" once gave Ah Xiong a "binding rope", and he might have made something with his own hands using the killing stone. All of this is in line with Su Wu's assumption fit!
After uttering eight verses from the mouth,

Su Wu stared at the 'Buddhist altar' intently.

The white paper in the 'Buddhist Altar' remained silent, but the obsessive aura emanating from the column of blood characters on the white paper suddenly subsided a lot.

Looking at the altar, a smile appeared on Su Wu's face.
