Mysterious World Tour
Chapter 52 Rouge, Powder and Painted Skin
Tan Mo got off the bed and stood at the head of the bed, staring at the skin that had shed from his body, with a thoughtful look on his face. ♦♦ ♦♦
The name of the story is The Painted Skin of the Scholar in the Thatched Cottage of Liaozhai.
If you say that this skin has nothing to do with the painted skin in the unfinished story, Tan Mo would never believe it.
"But what do I, a monk, need a painted skin for?"
"I'm not some beautiful lady who needs to dress up."
Tan Mo was surprised, so he reached out and picked up the skin, and then he found that there was something else under the skin.
A box of rouge and powder.
It was quite delicate.
Tan Mo: "..."
And then he found that there was something else behind the human skin, so he turned it over to take a look.
There was actually a row of buttons on the back of the human skin.
He thought about it, and then unbuttoned the row of buttons, and suddenly revealed a very smooth opening. He tried it, and it turned out that he could get in through the opening.
After putting on the skin a little clumsily, Tan Mo felt the difference at the first moment.
He became transparent, and then the whole person disappeared in the house.
His shadow disappeared.
It seemed that he was invisible.
Tan Mo thought about it and decided to try it outside.
Of course, before going, he had to make some preparations.
So Tan Mo's heart moved.
A pattern flashed in his eyes.
In the Lotus Temple, the success rate of testing the use of the painted skin +100%.
"Can it only be in the Lotus Temple? Anyway, I didn't think of running so far, down the mountain."
Tan Mo muttered, then pushed open the door and walked out.
Walking along the corridor of the monks' house, he saw the little monks who were doing morning lessons in a short while. Tan Mo walked in front of these little monks, and these little monks really didn't notice him.
Those who were in a daze were in a daze, those who were distracted were distracted, and those who were chanting were half-hearted.
Tan Mo went to the inner courtyard.
He saw the two senior brothers Jing Xukong and Jie Bodhi, who were talking, just chatting. Tan Mo walked over and listened for a while, but the two senior brothers didn't notice him.
Tan Mo then walked inside, and soon he saw Bai Guzi yawning, and the second senior brother didn't notice him either, so he continued to walk inside, and then he saw Master Lianhua.
Master Lianhua was washing at the moment, and suddenly raised his head, wiped the water drops on his hands with a towel, and then threw the rosary in his hand.
"Namo Amitabha."
The voice was flat and not loud, but it exploded in Tan Mo's ears, but it was like thunder, and it deafened him in an instant. ඏ♦ ♦♦At the same time, a faint golden light appeared on the rosary. Tan Mo only took a look and felt a little dizzy, and couldn't help turning around and running away.
After escaping from the inner courtyard, Tan Mo felt a little better.
At this time, there was movement in the inner courtyard.
"Brother Abbot, what happened?" Jing Xukong asked.
"I don't know what just broke into the temple, but I was frightened away by chanting a Buddhist mantra. But I can feel that the thing is not serious. I think it is very powerful. You should be careful. That thing is not inferior to me. It is probably a new tiger-level that appeared in this spiritual world." The serious voice of Master Lianhua sounded.
Hearing this, Tan Mo ran away.
He returned to the monk's house and took off the skin. He felt that his brother Master Lianhua would come to find him soon. Of course, he didn't find out that it was him, but came to take care of him.
Just when he was struggling to put it away, Tan Mo found that the whole skin disappeared at once.
And the box of rouge and powder.
But it didn't disappear completely. Tan Mo felt that the skin and the box of rouge and powder were somewhere, but he couldn't see or touch them.
Maybe this time tomorrow, the skin will appear again.
It's a magical feeling!
Taking a deep breath, Tan Mo calmed down and began to think about his discovery.
First, wearing this skin, he could become invisible. Then, his body seemed to be much lighter, and there was no sound when he walked, like a cat. In addition, he could feel that the spiritual energy in his body had increased slightly.
Tan Mo could not feel how much it had increased, after all, he had only entered the door of cultivation for a few days.
However, Tan Mo was clear about the invisibility effect.
Although the six masters like Master Lianhua could not see him, they could sense him and even attack him directly through mysterious means.
At this time, footsteps appeared outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
"Little Junior Brother, are you awake?" It was Bai Guzi's voice.
"I'm awake, Senior Brother." Tan Mo replied immediately, and then walked over to open the door.
"Something happened in the temple just now. Little Junior Brother, please clean up. Senior Brother is going to let us go out for a while." Bai Guzi said with a solemn look.
"Where are we going?" Tan Mo asked. He had never thought that he would make Master Lianhua so uneasy just by trying out the effects of the skin. This made him feel guilty.
"To Brother Jie Bodhi's house. He happened to be going back as well. Something must have happened at home." Bai Guzi answered.
"What happened at Brother Jie Bodhi's house?" Tan Mo asked with concern.
"I don't know." Bai Guzi shook his head.
Tan Mo was stunned.
Bai Guzi then explained: "Junior Brother Jie Bodhi is not an ordinary disciple from a wealthy family, but from an official family. In his generation, there are only him and his elder brother. Because their parents passed away early, the two brothers were raised by their grandfather. His grandfather liked Jie Bodhi more at that time and wanted Jie Bodhi to be the head of the family."
"But later, Junior Brother Jie Bodhi came to Lotus Temple to become a monk, and his elder brother became the head of the family. Every month, Jie Bodhi's elder brother would send a sum of money so that Jie Bodhi could be at ease here to chant sutras and Buddha as a monk."
"But no one sent money last month, and no one sent money this month."
It is undoubtedly worthwhile to use a small amount of money to exchange for a stable position as the head of the family. I think Jie Bodhi's elder brother would not be stingy with such a small amount of money for him.
Tan Mo nodded, it seems that it was not all because of what he had just done, and then said: "Brother, wait a moment, I will pack it up quickly."
He did not have much gifts, two sets of monk's clothes for replacement, and a pair of spare straw sandals. As for silver and other valuables, there was not a penny.
Following Bai Guzi, Master Lianhua, Jing Xukong, and Jie Bodhi were already waiting for them.
"Junior Brother Jie Bodhi has an accident at home, so you should accompany Junior Brother Jie Bodhi to go, just in time to avoid the unknown thing today. With this poor monk here, that thing can't make any big waves in the temple." Master Lianhua looked at Tan Mo and said.
"Brother, what if that thing chases us?" Bai Guzi asked immediately, looking a little sad.
"Take this rosary, if you encounter it, it can keep you safe for a while."
"What about after that?" Bai Guzi took the rosary, still with a bitter face. This rosary is good, but it can only protect you for a while, not for a lifetime!
"Are you stupid? Can't you take your junior brothers back to the mountain quickly?" Master Lianhua glared at him, looking unhappy.
"I know." Bai Guzi shrank his head and said embarrassedly.
