Lost Narrative Poetry

"My Buddha is compassionate..."

Putting his hands together, he muttered something in a low voice. The demon Buddha's clone looked indifferently, reached into his wide sleeves, and gently took out a small piece of strange "thing".

It was definitely something extremely weird. It was slightly transparent and twisted, with some kind of tentacle-like black aura. It was slowly crawling towards it, trying to submerge into the void... It was like some living soft-bodied creature. Or at least the tissue removed from those things.

——The ominous character of unknown identity.

It's just that in the palm of the demon Buddha's clone, there is not only this piece of soft tissue-like fragment, but also a faint sacred golden light. It is a golden lotus, and a Buddhist kingdom can be vaguely seen in it. In the vast purity In the land, the inside and outside are transparent, the glass light turns, it is boundless, pure and self-generated.

There is a liberated, pure, immeasurable and solemn light and shadow of the Great Buddha, sitting on a golden throne. Under the seat are countless Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, Kalans, and Bhikkhus, just like the number of sands in the Ganges River, with shadows and shadows, endlessly changing...

Although Mephala's essence fragment is the essence of the demon god that completely transcends the human realm, it is still just a fragment that has not yet been revived. Its power is naturally no match for the demonic Bodhisattva's body, and it is easily imprisoned in the Buddha's kingdom in the latter's palm.

Xia Ran just stretched out his hand gently, and the golden lotus flew out from his palm, but still firmly imprisoned the demon fragment and suppressed it deep in the pure land.

The golden lotus turned into a stream of light, and in an instant it rushed straight from the top of the mountain into the sky. In an instant, it fell into the invisible ocean composed of the light of countless people's souls. It was like a seed falling. Quietly taking root in the void.

Then, in the next moment.

"All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be viewed as such."

As the words fell, countless complex lines slowly took shape on the vast sea of ​​​​mind, combining into various weird and complicated patterns, and quickly expanded, spreading to the sea of ​​collective unconsciousness. Every farthest and darkest corner.

In just a moment, the extremely complex patterns were like tough steel wires, tightly strangling the collective consciousness of the human primates who wanted to survive, and the huge spell they combined directly trapped them. The entire vast ocean it formed...

It's like a huge mandala flower that is growing rapidly in the void, slowly closing, wrapping the entire soul ocean.

——"Mandala of the Embryo Realm·Five Calm Mind Meditations".

Buddhism teaches that everything is self-sufficient and that the original mind can give birth to all things. It is like thousands of different people growing up slowly from the fetus. All manifestations come from the heart, so it is called "fetus"; it is also like the growth of trees. What it looks like and what variety it belongs to are all determined by the seeds. Different characteristics can be "collected" in the seeds, so it is called "hidden".

If the Vajra Realm is a methodology, then the Womb Realm is a worldview.

As for the Five-Standing Mind Concept, it is also a Buddhist theory, but it is also a medical software developed by Sashoin Kiara in the CCC world line. She compared the Five-Standing Mind Concept to a vaccine to discover and remove SG.

So when the two are combined, the effect of this named technique becomes obvious.

Xia Ran wants to inject a vaccine directly into the minds of all human beings in this world to help them put a firewall patch on the level of consciousness and cognition. The main purpose is to add an extra layer of insurance to suppress the essential fragments of Mephala, so as not to The seal of the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm is not strong enough.

Since he was a clone of the Demon Buddha, he used this technique. If he had come in the form of a magician, it would probably be "Demonism: Brain in a Vat"... but there is no difference.

"It's really killing two birds with one stone, getting the best of both worlds. My merits, little monk, are indeed immeasurable..."

After finishing all this vigorously and resolutely, the Demonic Bodhisattva clasped his hands together again and praised himself from the bottom of his heart.

Initiate the collective subconscious of human beings, give birth to specific Alaya consciousness, and then suppress the fragments of Mephala into the depths of the souls of all living beings in this world. With the help of the restraining power generated by the common consciousness of human beings who want to avoid destruction, restrain the devil. The recovery of the fragments, by the way, is sorting out and regulating the energy balance on the earth that is on the verge of collapse.

——This is his way to save the world.

Alaya is an existence created by the collective unconscious. Precisely because it is an existence without consciousness, it will not be affected by factors such as thinking, empiricism, etc., and will not be in the dark situation. For people who appear quietly, The crisis cannot be noticed.

Even if there are dangerous factors that will not be noticed or realized by others, it will never be missed, and it will definitely suppress objects that may endanger the human world... This is the best monitor, working around the clock It is activated 24 hours a day, all year round, and will continue to be activated as long as mankind is not extinct.

As for the fact that in this process, you can also sort out and adjust the energy balance, it is not just nonsense——

Just like the restraining force in the world of Fate, it can send out signals and power to the chosen agent, conclude a contract, and elevate that person to the throne of hero... Although Alaya, who has just been catalyzed by the demon Buddha's clone in this world, is still there for the time being. It is impossible to create heroic spirits and guardians, but similar mechanisms can be imitated.

According to Xia Ran's idea, he was using the Alaya Consciousness of this world to help him suppress the instinctive recovery of the essence fragments of the demon god Mephala. But from another perspective, it is to use the fragments of the devil to continuously absorb energy from the environment to ensure that the earth, which is constantly being heated by the sun, will not really be steamed, and the time of the end will be continuously delayed. …

In order to suppress the complete resurgence of the demon fragments, the Alaya Consciousness will continue to disperse the power gathered in the sea of ​​collective unconsciousness of all mankind, and transform and vent it through various methods. Xia Ran just provides it. Such a "spiritual recovery" mechanism...

In this way——

The Demonic God Fragments continue to absorb energy, easing the pressure on the planet's ecosystem, prolonging the existence of the human world, and allowing the alaya consciousness to continue to activate...

As the human world continues to exist and the Alaya Consciousness continues to activate, it will in turn continue to suppress the resurrection of the Demon God's fragments, constantly dissipating its accumulated power, so that it will never reach the reality of recovery...

This is Xia Ran's method of saving the world and solving a small problem of his own. It is a design comparable to "unlimited merit and vitality".

The demon Buddha's avatar is under the night sky in the snowy area. His clear eyes are overlooking the earth from the top of the mountain, as if he is overlooking the entire planet and the entire human world. The clairvoyance that can see all phenomena and have future vision is activated again, and material phenomena Suddenly shattered, the curves of time and space quickly outlined an invisible river leading to the future.

The fire of calamity falls from the sky, and the wrath of Nabistin strikes! ——This kind of future does not disappear directly, but the relevant future image fragments are obviously constantly decreasing, replaced by the emergence of new possibilities, constantly spreading, occupying more branches of the long river of the future...

In the gaze of the demon Buddha's clone, it can be clearly seen that the possibility of a major disaster at the end of the world is rapidly decreasing. Even among the remaining possibilities "IF", the time when the end of the world will occur is still Continuously pushing back.

It occupies the mainstream trend of future possibilities, but it is a brand new world.

"...Well, that's enough. The rest is their own business."

Xia Ran carefully looked at it for a moment and confirmed that all the changes were in line with the expectations of his temporary second plan, so he felt relieved.

"Change is about to begin, and human society must also pay a price, but it is better to endure such pain than to be exterminated directly..."

Because the main reason for the end of this world is very troublesome. It is because the natural environment and resources have been predatoryly destroyed by humans for a long time. The earth's own balance system has reached its limit and is facing collapse. It also happened to encounter some changes from the sun, so the earth is like an egg put in a microwave oven.

If he wanted to fundamentally solve this problem, he could only re-create it within the solar system, or at least reshape the planet... It's not that it couldn't be done, but he didn't want to do it. Not to mention it would be a waste of time and the consequences. It's not necessarily better than the current approach.

Because if you do that, people in this world will probably pin their future on the existence of gods and Buddhas.

However, even if he is a true Buddha, it is impossible to say that he can directly and unconditionally save all sentient beings. People can only save themselves. And true salvation has always been like this. It does not come from others, but can only come from the true awakening of one's own heart.

All disasters will not happen...

All misfortunes are divinely prevented...

The whole world becomes a heaven on earth without any bad concepts...

How is this possible? No matter how conscientious a company is, it is impossible to take the initiative to pay for a man to come back and do nothing. He just enjoys the various welfare services provided by the company and does nothing at all... So what reason is there to hope? Will something like this happen?

Don't say anything else, even if there is a god who is willing to be the servant and nanny of all mankind, he will conscientiously provide his masters with the most comfortable conditions and living environment. But in this case, have humans really reached the ultimate social form, or are they simply being raised like pigs?

The answer should be obvious.

Xia Ran was not prepared to do everything from the beginning. He made a great ambition to save all mankind. Seven billion people would not be spared... Not to mention the possible and impossible issues, he did not have that responsibility at all, nor There is no obligation to do so.

This is a human world that is destined to be destroyed, with seven billion people dying. As long as you understand this, you should know this truth——

Even saving the world is not his original responsibility. Naturally, there is no reason to say that he still has an obligation. He needs to ensure that the humans in this world do not need to pay any sacrifice price, otherwise it will be his sin.

…

…

Late at night, around one o'clock in the morning.

"The sound of bells...has the whole world appeared..."

In a coastal city in China, Xia Ran was in her room, lying on the bed covered with a quilt, holding up her mobile phone, twirling her thumbs, frowning, looking quite serious and engaged.

And the lights in the room are also on.

Logically speaking, at this time of day, she should have turned off the lights and gone to bed. After all, she would have to get up early tomorrow morning and get to school before eight o'clock. However, it was rare for her to stay up late today, mainly because she didn't feel sleepy at all.

After school in the afternoon, in the corridor of the empty teaching building...

This matter was really puzzling to her. Just thinking about it made her shudder. The more she thought about it, the weirder it became, and the more she thought about it, the more hairy she felt. Coupled with the subsequent bell incident, the girl felt that there might be some connection between the two events.

Many people were completely unaware of it at the time, and it was not until the evening news was interrupted urgently, and relevant information spread like wildfire on major media platforms and chat rooms on the Internet, that they were shocked to discover what they had heard before. The sound of the bells is actually synchronized all over the world.

Probably because the government knew it couldn't hide it, and since no threat was found for the time being, it not only reported the incident on the news, but also urgently called on authoritative experts to come to the platform.

However, many people may believe it, but there are also many people who are skeptical. For example, Xia Ran is one of them. She had just experienced a strange thing before that, and she did not believe the "atmospheric resonance" explained by those bullshit experts. ”, “natural phenomena” and the like.

And it seemed that the whole world heard the bell, including Sissi who was going home with him at the time, but she was the only one who didn't hear it...

Oh, she wasn't the only one. Her parents didn't seem to hear it. They were still confused when they saw the news. If they didn't know that it was impossible to say that the whole world was collaborating to deceive her family, then they would really want to I wonder if this is a big prank.

However--

If her parents were just confused, then Xia Ran herself actually felt some kind of fear. She connected the two things and thought that something terrible was about to happen, and it was supernatural. The phenomenon first targeted his family.

It’s over, it’s over…

I shouldn't have talked to that weird monk...

The girl pursed her lips tightly and kept refreshing the page displayed on her phone, trying to see if she could see any latest developments, at least something that could reassure her. She would put down her phone from time to time, suspicious. Looking at his room.

She didn't see anything terrible, which made her subconsciously relieved. Then she thought of something again, and she raised her ears in fear, listening to what was going on in her parents' room next door.

Still nothing, she took a breath again, relaxed a little, then picked up the phone again and started a new cycle.

This night was probably quite painful for Xia Ran, although she was the one scaring herself.

But for some, the night was a strange beginning.

…

…

Because the time zones are the same, when night falls in China, it is also night in Japan.

In the dead of night, in a somewhat quiet subway station, a filming team was busy on site, making various arrangements.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the late-night program that you have been waiting for for a long time. The theme of this episode is the long-lost supernatural world theme. Before our observation object appears, let us first take a look at our plan for this episode... …”

The petite hostess with a sweet smile held the microphone and waved to the photographer's lens.

"As you can see, the place we are at this time is Shin-Hamamatsu Station. Some of you may not know it well. Have you ever heard of the rumors about Kisaragi Station? Please allow me to briefly describe it. The incident originated from the 2ch forum. A post on has now become an urban legend..."

"We are not sure whether this urban legend is true or false, but judging from the information circulating on the Internet and the inference of many railway enthusiasts, the missing Hasumi-chan took the Enshu Railway Line from Shin-Hamamatsu Station , and our arrangements this time will also make a fuss about this..."

At the same time, on the road more than ten kilometers away from the station, a taxi was quietly driving towards Shin-Hamamatsu Station.

"It's already late at night, do you really want to go there..."

The woman in the car looked at the empty night and road outside, feeling a unique sense of mystery, as if she and others were entering a world completely different from reality.

"We've already signed the contract, and we're all here. We can't look back..." The man next to her yawned, "Don't be afraid. Don't look at those people on the show who were so scared. In fact, Shangdu is just like us, he knew it beforehand, he was just cooperating with the performance..."

"Eh?" The woman seemed a little surprised, "Is there really no problem?"

"Nothing will happen. Just cooperate with them and pretend to be scared. That'll be all right..." The man waved his hand and yawned again.

Regarding the next thing, he only regarded it as a job. He had no expectations at all and no sense of nervousness. He would just go through the motions when the time came.

He is super brave.

(PS: Well, it’s definitely tomorrow... I’ll see how to adjust it)
