Reincarnation Train Restart [Unlimited]

Wu Xiajiu walked towards the wall, behind him, Mi Tai and A Miao were whispering.

Mi Tai fixed the candle on the ground, watched A Miao take out something from the package, and couldn't help asking in a soft voice: "Hey, why did you bring this stone Buddha statue that was broken in half? "

A Miao: "I'm afraid that Huang Ya and the others will find out if I stay in the small building... What's more, if it's still useful, it's always right to keep it."

This Buddha statue saved her and Li Qianqian's lives.

"But since it's all broken, it should be useless." Mitai muttered.

At this moment, Wu Xiajiu had already walked to the wall, stood still and raised his head.

He raised the faint light of the flame in the kerosene lamp, approached the murals on the wall, and watched carefully from top to bottom.

The murals are connected one after another, almost covering all the walls in the hall in length and width.

The murals are generally painted with Buddhist stories. The characters include Bodhisattvas with benevolent eyebrows, evil ghosts with ferocious faces, Shura, and ordinary people with all kinds of sentient beings.

The colors are rich and elegant, and the shades of ochre, cinnabar, azurite and other colors change clearly and meticulously.

The whole set off each other, simple and thick, rich and elegant.

Wu Xiajiu slowly walked around the hall along the murals.

But looking at it, Wu Xiajiu suddenly opened his eyes in surprise, and then couldn't help getting closer.

——Because, he suddenly discovered that among the several murals in front of him, the color usage in several places was obviously out of place.

It is the same color as the Sanskrit "Shurangama Sutra" written on the pillars outside the hall, both golden and red.

Of course, the material is probably the same...

Wu Xiajiu's eyes flashed.

This color is particularly abrupt and uncoordinated on the mural. It is obvious that it was painted later, and it seems to be depicting a story.

In the first mural, there are eminent monks, tortoises and evil spirits... very familiar.

Wu Xiajiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and continued to look down. Sure enough, there were "golden and red lines" hidden in the next murals - eminent monks, turtles, temples, evil spirits and people.

From start to finish, from good to ugly.

He gradually became fascinated, and unconsciously walked to the last mural.

"I see……"

Wu Xiajiu murmured to himself: "So...is this the 'Story of the Eminent Monk'?"

While whispering in a low voice, he couldn't help but touch the mural, and when his fingertips touched the cold and rough mural, the wristband became hot, and the panel popped out——

[Congratulations to the passengers for completing the exploration of "The Story of the Monk" (100% explored), reward survival time: five days. 】

[Congratulations to the passengers who discovered the "Secret of the murals of Wangu Temple" and obtained relevant information - Buddha Gui Poshan (45% explored), and obtained relevant information - Guizang Six (25% explored)]

Immediately afterwards, the panel refreshed——

[Passenger's name: Wu Xiajiu]

【Code Name: Guanzhu】

[Tickets: Tickets have not yet been obtained]

[Props: Not yet obtained props]

[Life duration: 192:01:32 (status: frozen)]

……

It turns out that "The Story of the Eminent Monk" was recorded in the form of murals.

Wu Xiajiu turned around and wanted to tell Mi Tai and the others about this, but the moment he turned his head, he suddenly saw a figure hiding behind the golden Buddha statue not far away.

The figure only carefully exposed half of its body, most of which were hidden in the shadows.

Although he couldn't see his face clearly, Wu Xiajiu could clearly feel that figure was secretly looking at him.

Seeing him turning back unexpectedly, the figure was obviously startled, and turned around to run in the next second.

Wu Xiajiu quickly shouted: "Don't run! Li Zhu!"

After saying this sentence, the figure froze immediately and stopped in place.

Mi Tai, A Miao, Li Qianqian and the others were caught off guard and scared.

They were already drowsy, but because of Wu Xiajiu's sudden shout, they almost jumped up from the ground.

Especially after seeing clearly that there was one more person in the hall at some time, Mi Tai was immediately frightened and let out an "ah".

A Miao quickly picked up the broken Buddha statue in two for self-defense, and did not forget to give one to Li Qianqian.

Wu Xiajiu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Bo Ku left his own story on the murals of the main hall before he died, and among them was the orphan he adopted in this village."

"That orphan is you, Li Zhu, and the figure I saw in the temple on the tree trunk was also you, right?"

The three of Mi Tai were confused and confused.

As Wu Xiajiu spoke, he gradually approached with a kerosene lamp in his hand.

When he got closer, he could see clearly that the figure was wrapped in a black robe, with a thin and stooped figure.

Because his back was facing them, all he could see was his sharply bent back.

After listening to Wu Xiajiu's words, the figure slowly turned around.

Under the dim light of the flames, the four of them finally saw his face clearly.

——old, with pale and wrinkled skin, sunken cheeks due to thinness, and prominent cheekbones, but bright eyes, which seem to reflect a cluster of flames.

He spoke, as if he hadn't talked to anyone for a long time, his voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant: "You, you understand that mural?"

Wu Xiajiu nodded: "Understood, otherwise I wouldn't know the name of Master Bo Ku, and Bo Shan, you..."

In the last mural, there are master Boku's last words, and a few paragraphs of Sanskrit are recorded.

And the eminent monk mentioned by the old man in the village is obviously Master Bo Ku, and also, that turtle tail...

After knowing that the person hiding in the Wangu Temple was a human and not a ghost, the three of Mi Tai couldn't help but relax a little.

Mi Tai glanced at the shadow of the old man, and said to Wu Xiajiu: "Monastery Master, what are you talking about? What mural? What Master Boku... Who are he and Li Zhu?"

How could he be hiding in Wangu Temple?

Mitai turned to look at the mural, but he couldn't see anything there.

Wu Xia looked at the old man for a long time and said, "After entering the main hall, I carefully observed the golden Buddha statue and the incense table in front of the Buddha statue."

"The desk was cleaned very cleanly, without even a trace of dust, but this is obviously unreasonable in an ancient temple that has been closed for a long time."

"I think someone must be hiding somewhere in this hall."

"After that, I stayed awake on purpose, and planned to take a look around the hall by looking at the murals, but I didn't expect that there was a story hidden in these murals. No, it should be a piece of the past..."

"And you are one of the people in this past."

The old man, that is, Li Zhu nodded slowly, with a sad expression: "You are right."

Wu Xiajiu continued: "The Shurangama Sutra in Sanskrit is engraved on the pillars of the Wangu Temple and on the doors and windows outside the main hall."

"Before I couldn't see what kind of paint was used to write Buddhist scriptures, until I saw this golden Buddha statue and murals..."

"The paint is made by knocking off the outer layer of gold leaf on the golden Buddha statue, and then grinding the gold leaf into gold powder. Is it mixed with... blood?"

Therefore, the color of the paint is golden red.

Li Zhu remained silent.

After sighing silently for a long time, Wu Xia said, "I guess, the blood mixed in the gold powder must belong to Master Pa Ku."

"Only a well-educated monk like him uses his own blood to coagulate Buddhist scriptures to exorcise evil and avoid disasters, and engrave them in the Wangu Temple to prevent evil spirits from entering."

It can be said that in a certain sense, Wangu Temple is a refuge in this ancient village.

After Wu Xiajiu stopped talking, the old man nodded after a while, confirming his guess.

Afterwards, Li Zhu told about that past event, which was exactly the same as what Wu Xiajiu saw on the mural.

This stockade used to be very ordinary, until the arrival of an eminent monk, Bo Ku, who built the Wangu Temple in the stockade.

With the prosperity of incense and people coming and going, the village became richer.

Later, in order to thank Master Boku, the village was renamed Buddha Village.

At that time, Master Bo Ku met the young Huang Caifang.

Huang Caifang was smart and had unique insights into Buddhism. He often came to Wangu Temple to talk with Master Boku.

Later, Master Paku went out and brought back something.

That thing is a golden Buddha statue about the size of a palm. It looks exquisite and expensive, but it seals an evil spirit inside.

Master Bo Ku brought it back and planned to save it, so he sealed the evil spirit in the sarcophagus, and erected a giant tortoise statue at the tail of the turtle in the village on the mountain, and the sarcophagus was suppressed under the right front foot of the giant tortoise statue.

The image of this giant tortoise was chiseled out according to the tortoise that was kept beside Master Boku.

Master Boku gave the turtle a name, Boshan.

After that, in order to save the evil spirits and protect the villagers, Master Bo Ku carved Buddha statues and presented Buddhist objects in the village.

Hearing this, Mi Tai couldn't help asking: "How did Master Boku die? Did the evil spirit escape and kill Master Boku later?"

Wu Xiajiu said: "Well, you can also say that."

"Master Boku left his last words on the murals. Before he passed away, he had lived for more than 100 years, but his appearance still looked like he was about 50 years old."

Li Zhu continued: "No one knew about this matter, but Huang Caifang found out by chance..."

Mitai and the others opened their eyes wide in surprise, unable to believe it.

Immediately afterwards, A Miao asked: "How did he know?!"

Li Zhudao: "At that time, Huang Caifang was on good terms with Master Bo Ku, and seeing that he brought back the golden Buddha, which looked extremely precious, he couldn't help asking again and again."

"Master Bo Ku told him that it was an evil object, and there were evil spirits inside, so he must not touch it."

"The golden Buddha was wrapped with strips of cloth with Buddhist scriptures written on it, and then it was sealed in a sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus was buried deep under the right front foot of the giant tortoise."

"This matter was done very secretly, and the only people who knew about it were Master Boku, Huang Caifang, and me."

But he and Master Boku never expected that Huang Caifang couldn't resist the temptation of the Golden Buddha, so he secretly went to the stone statue and opened the sarcophagus...

"As a result, Huang Caifang was bewitched and seduced by the evil spirit, so he had evil thoughts, wanting to live forever and live forever..."

No one knows how the evil spirit bewitched Huang Caifang.

But after that, Huang Caifang quietly stole the golden Buddha sealed in the sarcophagus, and began to continue to harm people in the village.

At that time, Master Boku paid homage to the Buddha behind closed doors, trying to find out a way to completely save the evil spirits.

Therefore, Huang Caifang took the opportunity to secretly hide all the property and other things obtained after the murder in the Wangu Temple.

Before Master Bo Ku found out, he designed a frame again, making the villagers mistakenly believe that Bo Ku was the murderer who took the money.

Bo Ku trusted Huang Caifang very much.

And everything happened unexpectedly.

It was too late when Master Bo Ku knew about it.

He was seriously injured by Huang Caifang's sneak attack, and he was unable to move. He was chased by the incited and bewitched villagers to drive him out of the village.

On the way of pursuit, Bo Shan was accidentally beaten to death by the villagers.

Master Bo Ku and Li Zhu, who was still young at the time, were besieged by the villagers in the Wangu Temple...
