What is it like to be teased by a ghost?

Hundred ghosts travel at night, purgatory on earth.

Everyone chewed these words over and over again, just thinking silently in their hearts gave chills down their spines. Now that the Dao has fallen, the treasure land of the spiritual realm has been invaded and destroyed, and the true energy and Taoism have also been diluted and declined. What kind of opportunity will cause the ghosts to walk at night? A dangerous situation like purgatory on earth.

"Could it be... a demon king was born?" Old Master Rong trembled his lips, expecting Mu Tong's mouth to deny the answer.

According to Mu Rong's "Jalan Yunyou Zhi" records: Ten thousand years ago, the world was flooded and desolate, the turbidity was uncertain, monsters were rampant, and the world was full of bones, three steps and one step, and the ears were full of children crying, women and children dying, demons and ghosts robbed the territory , disturbed the treacherous situation between the heaven and the earth, during which a monster was born to ravage fiercely and be bloodthirsty. Wherever the monster went, it would leave no armor and be silent, and it was called the devil king.Later, some people realized the secrets of heaven, martyred their bodies, and used their souls as guides. They borrowed the fire red lotus, burned their bodies for ninety-nine and eighty-one days, refined themselves into red lotus ghosts, and fought with monsters for several months before they could get peace in the world.

"No." Although Mu Tong denied it, his expression did not look optimistic. "In the prehistoric times, the avenue was formed in a hurry, and the world was full of smog, but the current world does not have the conditions to raise a peerless demon king."

"Then...what the hell is it?" the abbot also asked anxiously.

Mu Tong stood up unsteadily, clasped his hands together, "I'm sorry, I didn't see it."

Mu Qing: "Didn't see it?"

"Yes, I only saw yin and grievances overflowing, the air was cloudy, originally good people complained and quarreled, and unnecessary wars were waged between countries. In addition, I also saw One red and blue light, and nothing else."

"Red and blue light? Is it the source of the misery in the world? If we find that source, the world will be saved?"

Mu Tong didn't answer Rong Feng's question, but remained silent.

After a long time, he said, "Maybe, that light is the light in Pandora's Box."

Mr. Rong and the abbot didn't know much about western myths, so they asked in unison, "What light?"

Luo Jiang added: "The light of hope."

Rong Feng also probably popularized Greek mythology to the two old people.

Zeus, the god of creation, gave Pandora a sealed box full of scourges, disasters and plagues, and asked her to give it to the man who married her.Prometheus, who stole the divine fire, was convinced that Zeus had bad intentions for mankind, so he warned his younger brother Epimetheus not to accept the gift from Zeus.But he didn't listen to the advice and married the beautiful Pandora.Driven by curiosity, Pandora opened the box, and immediately all the disasters, plagues, and scourges in it flew out.Human beings have suffered from disasters, plagues and disasters ever since.And before the beautiful thing "hope" that Athena, the goddess of wisdom, quietly placed at the bottom of the box flew out of the box in order to save the fate of mankind, Pandora closed the box.

Luo Fu sighed and said: "The Dao is formless, it gives birth to the world; the Dao is ruthless, it moves the sun and the moon; the Dao has no name, it grows all things, maybe there is always a way for all things in the world, our current distress is just a meaningless struggle, it is better to actively deal with it, Believe that God will also guide the way of life for all things."

At this point, everyone's complexion improved a little.

The abbot closed his eyes and sincerely bowed to the relic, "Since the relic has given an early warning, we will work hard to practice. I hope that when that day comes, we will not be too embarrassed, Amitabha."

"Although it's useless to be anxious now, it's always good to seek opportunities first. From today onwards, the children of the Mu Rong family must not slack off, especially you, Mu Qing, who are often lazy and don't study. You even have to secretly change your feet when you meditate. Ordinary grieving ghosts can't be cured, starting tomorrow, your morning and evening classes will be watched by your elder brother Rong Feng personally."

Rong Feng naturally obeyed his grandfather's order, "Yes."

But Mu Qing made a bitter face, "Grandpa Rong, I'm not born to practice. My brother is better than me, and my brother is also better than me. Go and force them."

When Rong Feng heard Mu Qing mentioning Mu Hongyi, he remembered the good deeds this buddy had done. Because he was afraid that Mr. Rong would be angry, he interrupted Mu Qing first, "Being a child of the Mu Rong family, such things are of course obligatory. Look at the two sisters of the Luo family, not only are they very talented, but they never slack off in their cultivation, and they have helped countless people. You should learn from them, and I will watch you every day from now on, so don't be lazy."

After speaking, he tapped Mu Qing on the head.

Luo Jiang: I charge money for doing things, and I don’t want to talk about the starting price of talisman paper, which is one thousand.

Mu Qing was very unconvinced when she heard Rong Feng comparing herself with Luo Jiang and the others, but she had to admit that Luo Jiang, Luo Yunsang and even Luo Fu were among the most powerful figures among the young disciples who practiced Taoism. Luo Loulan, this name is not for nothing, she didn't want to affirm the other party in front of Luo Jiangluofu, and she didn't dare to slander him in front of the two elders, so she replied weakly, "What's the big deal."

Mr. Rong looked at Luo Fu with a majestic expression, "Shen Su, you too."

The old man Rong said this was purely to give Mu Qing a balance, but it was not the case in Luo Fu's ears. Since Su Hanqi lived in Luo's house, she was often harassed by her, and she was indeed a little lax in her practice. Mr. Rong's words clearly sensed her depravity and reminded her.

"Master, this disciple must study hard and live up to your expectations."

The relic turned black, it can’t be solved, the abbot looked at the black relic, his heart was bleeding, this is a sacred object, it has become like this, it really humiliates Buddhism, and it is shameless to face the Buddha.

In this regard, the old man Rong comforted him, it was just a prediction, and he was not polluted by the magic energy, so he would come back in vain.

The old man Rong and the abbot walked to the front side by side. Mu Tong walked down the stairs carefully with his blind cane. Mu Qing wanted to come up to help him, but he refused.

"I want Sister Luo Jiang to lead me."

Mu Qing thought that Mu Tong was still angry, so she ignored him and walked to the front of the team.

Mu Tong took Luo Jiang's hand and walked slowly at the back, and suddenly asked: "Sister, what did you see in the maze?"

Looking at Luo Fu in front of her, Luo Jiang felt a little guilty for the first time, so she also replied in a low voice: "I saw a person holding a flag."

Mu Tong didn't reply right away, but lowered his head to think for a while, maybe... what the two of them saw was different and unrelated, after all, what Mu Tong saw was the future, and Luo Jiang looked back at the past.

"I see."

Seeing Mu Tong's preoccupation, Luo Jiang remembered that Luo Fu said that if she stayed in the maze for a long time, she would be haunted by demons. She was a little curious about what Mu Tong's demons were. He just casually asked about the young man's troubles, but Mu Tong's sad expression made the topic a bit heavy.

"Master once told me that everyone has a way to go. Although I don't intend to know the hurdles and falls that others will go through, I should not tell him, nor should I change the trajectory of others' lives, because There will be new hurdles and new roads on the new track, which will make him confused and unable to find his way, but just now, I, who has been spying on the world as a bystander, suddenly saw my own life track."

"Is this your demon?"

Mu Tong smiled wryly, "I only now know how painful it is to be spoiled, especially spoiled life."

Luo Jiang thought to herself that Mu Tong must have seen something terrible, but out of politeness, she didn't ask.

After walking for a while, Mu Tong suddenly mentioned Wei Linqiang, "Sister and that person this morning, there is a cause and effect, and it is still a strong cause and effect."

Luo Jiang was still immersed in a somewhat desolate atmosphere just now, when Zhudi heard this, his old face blushed, unexpectedly, he was spotted by a child like Mu Tong, could it be that this child also has the function of a moon old man?

She coughed and said, "I... we Taoists generally don't use this word. We call it fate. The thing of cause and effect always feels too heavy to bear."

Mu Tong smiled at Luo Jiang, "There is also a fate between me and my sister, a deep fate."

Luo Jiang: Am I being teased by a child?

After leaving the pagoda, Luo Jiang found that Wei Linqiang and the others were already waiting in front of the three pagodas, and Xue Yi picked the flowers under the pagodas, complaining about being bored.

"Be careful, benefactor," said the abbot.

"what???"

"This flower is called Datura, and the whole plant is poisonous. In the past, the bandits in the mountains used the juice of this flower to mix the food of the caravan to seek wealth and death. If you accidentally eat it in your mouth, it will be bad."

After hearing this, Xue Yi quickly threw away the flowers, smiled embarrassingly, "I'm sorry, I don't know."

In ancient times, Xiangyun City was very poor. People here made a fortune by transporting goods by horses and selling them everywhere. This is also the famous Tea-Horse Road. At first, Xiangyun City’s jade, silver ornaments, and wood carvings were famous for their export. many countries.

"Speaking of which, silver jewelry became popular during the battle of wits and courage between the caravan and the bandits. It is said that once a caravan dealer filled a silver bowl with water and found that the bowl had turned black. Later, after checking, he found out that the bandits were in the water. It was poisoned, and the story was spread to the palace, and the nobles in the palace also used silver products."

The above is from the narrator of Duoxi.

"But...why is there such a flower in the temple? Isn't it harmful?" Xiao Zhang asked curiously.

The abbot smiled, "Everything has its pros and cons. Although this flower is poisonous, it can also be used to make medicine to cure diseases and save lives. It is destined to grow here, so why should we deprive it of the right to live?"

Xiao Zhang blushed in shame, "I am narrow-minded."

The narrator looked at the time, and suddenly slapped his head, "Oh, the time agreed with your tour guide is almost here, so hurry up and go to the next place, or he will call to remind you."

Luo Jiang looked at Luo Fu after listening, "Shen Su, you guys go back first."

Rove nodded.

After everyone bid farewell, Luo Jiang and the others got on the bus, ready to go to the next place.

After arriving in the car, Zhao Zichen and Xue Yi asked persistently, "Didn't you say you wanted to show us the relics? Did you take any pictures?"

The abbot told us not to talk about the Qianxun Pagoda relic, let alone take pictures.

Luo Jiang shook her head honestly.

"Ah...you lied to me." Xue Yi pouted and pretended to be angry.

Luo Jiang asked suspiciously: "Didn't you see it?"

"Where is it?"

"The string in Shen Su's hand, the bodhi relic, was also transformed by Sakyamuni, and it's no worse than the one in Qianxun Pagoda."

Xue Yi had a shocked face: "You, you... You mean, such a big baby, your sister just put it on her hand, and I... didn't know it all the time???"

Luo Jiang smiled wickedly, "That's right."

Zhao Zichen was also shocked, oh my god, what's going on at Luo Jiang's family.
