There are many ghosts on the road of alms

Zhixian knew what to say next, it was not for her to know.She choked up and walked in front of the abbot, holding back tears, kneeling three times and prostrating nine times to the abbot.

"Abbot... Amitabha." Thousands of words were probably melted into the Buddha's name.

The abbot stared at Zhixian, "Go, child."

Zhixian nodded vigorously, took one last look at the abbot, and slowly backed out, closing the door behind him.

The abbot watched Zhixian's figure go away, and asked Chu Liu: "Xiao Liu, how did you find Zhixian and the others back?"

"I came from Antique Street. I saw a lot of children from aristocratic families at the foot of Luoyan Mountain, so I planned to go up the mountain from the back slope. When I arrived at the back slope, I saw the lady behind the kitchen pushing the cart and just came down from the back slope. Ask me After the reason, I found out that the abbot and all the senior uncles were prepared to die, so..."

"So you woke up Zhixian and the others, and led them into the clock tower through the back door, didn't you?"

Chu Six nodded.

The back door where the kitchen is located is very close to the bell tower, and with the presence of the back chef lady, the back door blocked by the iron plate was naturally opened quietly.Due to the importance of the bell tower, the lady in the kitchen knew it very well. After deliberation, everyone decided to move into the bell tower.Even if it cannot be defeated, it will not be breached.

"Xiao Liu, I know what you think, but you are still a little desperate, next time you have to think twice before acting." The abbot instructed.

"Understood, abbot." Chu Liu put his hands together, bowed his head as if he had been trained in the temple before.

Liu Qinyan knelt and sat next to Chu Liu, looking at the abbot, feeling very sad.

When entering, Liu Qinyan noticed the situation of the abbot.His face turned pale, his internal energy fluctuated, but his mental state was better. It was obvious that the worm had entered the abbot's heart, causing the abbot to have a phenomenon of returning light.

And the reason why it lasted until now must be that the abbot's internal force is suppressing the toxin. Once the abbot is relieved, I'm afraid...

The abbot smiled slightly when he noticed Liu Qinyan's gaze.

"Fate is really hard to say. I didn't expect that you were together in the previous life, and you will still be together in this life." The abbot looked at Liu Qinyan kindly, and looked at the grown-up Chu Liu, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Abbot, do you know?" Chu Liu asked with a frown.

Liu Qinyan also raised her head and looked at the abbot.

The abbot shook his head: "I don't know the specifics, but things related to Xiaoliu are very clear." As he spoke, the abbot pressed a recess on the bookshelf behind him.

click.

A small hidden compartment was revealed next to the abbot's futon, and a book bound with thread appeared in the eyes of the three of them.

"This book records the matter of praying for one line, Xiao Liu can read it."

Chu Liu stretched out his hand to take the classic, and after flipping through a few pages, there was an expression of incredulity on his face, but there was a trace of the taste in his eyes.

Liu Qinyan knew that this was the secret of the wishing lineage, so she did not step forward, but knelt and sat on the spot, waiting quietly for the abbot to speak.

"It seems that Xiaoliu has noticed something, very good." The abbot was very satisfied with the results of Chuliu's experience at the foot of the mountain. He turned the prayer beads in his left hand and said, "The secret of praying for one lineage has always been passed on by word of mouth, but it is only limited to merit. Inheritance of Dharma know-how. In fact, the deeds of each incumbent are still recorded, but this record is not made by the people of the same line of prayer, but by Puchen Temple."

"Like the living man next to the ancient emperor?" Liu Qinyan said after thinking.

"Little friend Qinyan is right." The abbot nodded slightly.

Chu Liu looked at the classic in his hand and understood the importance of this classic, but why did Puchen Temple do it? Can he really trust it?Chu Liu pondered in his heart, and suddenly had an idea.

"Abbot, Puchen Temple and praying are in the same line, right?"

The abbot smiled reassuringly: "Yes, the same lineage, and praying for the same lineage is the cultivation of mana and yin power. The practice of Puchen Temple's exercises in mana is helpful for praying for the same lineage, and it can also make the wishing for the same lineage Keep your mind, so everything happens for a reason.”

Only then did I understand on the sixth day of the lunar new year why the letter of praying for the lineage was hidden at the bottom of the alms bowl of Puchen Temple, and why many deeds were handed down. If the incumbent makes it clear, then the incumbent can see this classic and tell it to the next generation.

But after hearing what the abbot said, Chu Liu always felt that it was a bit too coincidental, which made her suspect that she was caught in a situation, and even her appearance at the gate of Puchen Temple was calculated.

Chu Liu looked directly at the abbot, and asked with some uncertainty: "Then, was my birth in this life really abandoned at the gate of the temple?"

Chu Liu waited with bated breath for the abbot's answer, but saw the abbot shaking his head.

"You were indeed abandoned at the gate of the monastery in this life. Puchen Temple did not specifically look for the incumbent. Moreover, Puchen Temple only discovered that you were possessed of Yin Qi when the Hundred Ghosts of the Night Walk appeared at the praying place. , and then doubt your identity." The rosary in the abbot's hand began to move faster, and Liu Qinyan, who noticed this scene, paused for a moment.

Chu Liu let go of the stone in his heart, exhaled lightly and didn't notice anything unusual. "How did Puchen Temple know and follow the records of the former incumbents? According to my understanding of the seniors, they have always been idle, and it is impossible for others to follow them."

"It doesn't have to be followed all the time. Every abbot of Puchen Temple will usually follow the incumbent secretly, recording the big and small things that happened. Of course, if there is any inconvenience, the incumbent will do it himself. Dictate, and we'll write it down."

"Abbot, did you follow and record the deeds of the first life of Chu Liu?" Liu Qinyan always felt that something was wrong, and when she looked up, she saw the abbot's admiring gaze.

"I recorded the deeds of the first life on the sixth day of the junior high school, but the following only started after I found out in this life."

"Then how did you collect the deeds of her last life?" Liu Qinyan glanced to the side, seeing that Chu Liu was also a little nervous.

"The record of the previous life was dictated by someone who was with Chu Liu when he came back to me." The abbot pondered for a moment, looked into Chu Liu's eyes, and said in a deep voice: And that person is your master, Bai Xiao. "

As soon as the word "Bai Xiao" came out, Chu Liu suddenly clenched the classics in his hands, his body trembling a little.

"I have never regarded myself as Xiaoliu's master, because I have calculated her horoscope and wanted to find her parents. But I didn't want her fate to be complicated, so I could barely figure out that she has a powerful master to protect her Escort. And not long after the calculation for her, the catastrophe of Puchen Temple appeared, so she was not allowed to convert to Buddhism." After the abbot finished speaking, he tried to stand up with his body, but fell back to his seat.

Chu Liu and Liu Qinyan saw the abbot's movements and hurried forward.

"It's okay, I don't have much time, and it's good to have activities." The prayer beads in the host's hand had stopped turning, and the whole person was sitting stiffly on the futon.

When Liu Qinyan heard the words, she couldn't bear to turn her head away, and wiped away her tears with her sleeve.

"Abbot, how could it be? You will be fine, you will be fine. Last time, Liu Qinyan and I saved old general Xu. At that time, old general Xu was also hit by a worm charm. It must be no problem for the two of us to fight together. Yes." Chu Liu wiped away the tears that blocked his vision, and tremblingly touched the abbot's wrist.

But the moment he touched it, tears welled up in his eyes.

The pulse was so weak that it stopped intermittently, and the beating of the heart became weaker and weaker. This was a sign of the end of life, and there was no way to save it.

"People are mortal, and it is a blessing to be reborn in bliss without pain. Don't be sad, Xiaoliu." The abbot held Chuliu's hand tremblingly, comforting Chuliulai instead.

Liu Qinyan looked at Chu Liu's grief-stricken look, and when she thought about her own helplessness, the self-blame in her heart reached the peak in an instant, and she knelt down in front of the abbot.

"I'm sorry, abbot, I should be the one who died, not you. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

Chu Liu looked at Liu Qinyan's actions in puzzlement, turned his head stiffly and asked, "What do you mean? Say it again?"

"Xiaoliu, Qinyan, you two come here, I don't have much time, listen to me." The abbot interrupted Chuliu's question, and wanted to hold Liu Qinyan's hand, but he didn't even have the strength to lift it up. No more.

Seeing this, Liu Qinyan quickly stretched out her hand, and folded her hand on top of Chu Liu's.

The abbot barely raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at the two with his clear eyes.

"I know that you have already concluded a marriage contract, but it's a pity that I can't see your wedding anymore. You have to live happily, you know?"

"Abbot, you can take the path of ghost cultivation, I will guide you to practice." As he said, the sixth day of the lunar new year was about to knock out the abbot's soul, but under the stern gaze of the abbot, he slowly lowered his hand.

"No, this life is enough." The abbot blinked tiredly, then turned to look at Liu Qinyan, and pointed out with some concern: "Son, don't feel guilty, this time the matter is It's God's will, no one can resist, and can't hide. In the future, Xiao Liu will be handed over to you, you support each other, don't be inferior to your limited internal strength, and cultivate hard in the future, and you will improve yourself."

When Liu Qinyan heard the last sentence, her eyes dodged for a moment.

Chu Liu passed his internal energy to the abbot, but it didn't work. Instead, Yin Qi began to flow around Chu Liu's body, and the color of his pupils changed to dark red.

"Amitabha!" The abbot chanted the Dharma name loudly, and the yin energy on Chu Liu disappeared in an instant.

"Abbot, abbot!"

Hearing Chu Liu's shout, the abbot barely opened his eyes and spoke intermittently.

"Xiao Liu, although you have recovered your memory, but...in our hearts, you will always be Xiao Liu of Puchen Temple...May you have kind thoughts...don't kill...innocents indiscriminately." As soon as the words fell, the abbot lowered his head.
