Chapter 290

When he came to this Buddhist temple, Li Qi's brows never relaxed.

This place is very strange.

It is said to be a Buddhist temple, but in fact the decoration is very Tang style, that is, it does not look like a temple at all.

There are stone unicorns crouching outside, and turtles, dragons, phoenixes and tigers crouching on the cornices, and they are distributed in all directions according to the square.

There is even a gossip in the courtyard. The twelve celestial positions are placed outside the hexagrams, and there are corresponding animal portraits. In addition to the corresponding animals, there are 24 characters, surrounding the outline, the style is like Li, and the stippling is complete. any kind of word.

Let’s talk about a Buddhist temple, but it’s not a Buddhist temple either.

Let's talk about Taoism, it seems that it is not Taoism either.

Li Qi could even perceive the arrangement of some gods and wizards, such as the shrines next to the building, and various well-arranged sacrificial venues, and even the demonic and demonic aura surrounding the Buddha statue, which made people Li Qi's scalp was a little numb.

This reminded him of Monk Zen Zhi's integration of Buddha and demon, which triggered a little psychological shadow.

The only thing that can tell that this is a temple is probably the Buddha statues inside and the bald monks walking around.

Even the monks are not all bald, there are some who wear monk's robes but have long hair.

What the hell is this...

Li Qi was puzzled, so he used his strengths.

ask.

If you don't understand, just ask, it's no big deal.

So he stopped an old-looking monk: "Master, may I ask where this place is? Why does it look a little strange?"

The old monk was a little surprised, and said, "Huh? The benefactor came here because he didn't know where it was?"

"I came to Chang'an for the exam, and the second exam room is here, so I came here just to see that the furnishings here are a bit strange, so I stopped the master to ask questions, please forgive me for disturbing you." Li Qibin was polite replied.

"Oh, that's how it is. It's the first time for the benefactor to come, so the old monk will explain a thing or two to the benefactor."

"The temple here is called Sansheng Temple—"

The old monk began to tell.

This Sansheng Temple was originally a barren mountain. The previous emperor took the Sansheng Mirror from Luoyang and placed it in Chang'an. Then officials chose this place and built this temple for storage.

The monks here are not all real monks.

In fact... most of these monks are just a job. Only a few are real Buddhist practitioners. Have certain characteristic costumes, perform ceremonial work, perform and reproduce the history and culture of Buddhism for other tourists, and take part-time jobs as scenic tour guides and psychologists by the way.

That's why there are many monks with long hair here. They come here to work part-time, so there is no need to shave their heads.

As for Li Qi, he was very lucky. The old monk he caught happened to be one of the few true Buddhist practitioners.

The task they are in charge of is to guard the Sansheng ancient mirror. It is said that this is an ancient treasure with the ability to see through the Sansheng, so people will come to borrow it from time to time.

As for the weird furnishings here, it is all due to the Sansheng Ancient Mirror.

I don't know why, every time the Sansheng ancient mirror is used, a strange thing will be produced, and then placed in this temple.

Most of these things are related to the path of the user.

So it's full of stuff from other paths here, also for that reason.

While chatting, the old monk suddenly asked Li Qifa.

"The benefactor said it was an exam, so he probably came to borrow the Sansheng ancient mirror?" the old monk asked kindly.

"I don't know either. They just told me to come here to wait for the exam. Counting the time, there is still a quarter of an hour. There should be a notification." Li Qi said frankly.

"Since this is the case, please ask the benefactor to enter the inner hall and wait. I think you said that the exam should be a student of the Taixue. I was assigned to use this thing, so I think it will be the same this time." The old monk laughed.

Hearing this, Li Qi also calmed down.

It turns out that it is common to go to this kind of place for exams, so there is no problem.

So, he thanked again, and then followed the old monk to the backyard.

In the backyard, there is a locked room.

Li Qi's true knowing rhyme can feel... some kind of strange existence.

The other party didn't hide himself, so Li Qi could see it clearly, but he couldn't feel the vitality of this thing either.

just like……

I can't describe it.

Similar to some kind of dead thing, or rather, a natural phenomenon.

But it's not quite like that, because there's still some reaction, but it's very mechanical, very rigid.

Oh yes!

computer!

Li Qi suddenly thought, this is what a computer feels like!
It will respond to the outside world, but the response is extremely mechanical, capable of highly complex calculations, but without any living consciousness at all.

The breath he felt was like a computer.

"This room is where the Three Lives Ancient Mirror is located. The benefactor might as well go in and wait for it to get acquainted with it in advance. When the notification comes, just start it up." The old monk suggested.

"Won't this break the rules? What if I'm a liar?" Li Qi was a little surprised.

This monk, is he too relieved of himself?
However, I heard the old monk say: "It's just going into a room. What rules are broken? As for the Sansheng Ancient Mirror, ordinary people can't activate it. Even if you really want to do something, since you have come here, a door What can the door block?"

"Furthermore, this is Chang'an. If someone has evil intentions, how can there be a place for them under the might of the Supreme Heaven?"

After hearing this, Li Qi had a strange expression on his face.

What the old monk said made sense.

But aren't you from Buddhism, why is your mouth full of humanity?
That's all... probably doing as the Romans do.

Since everyone thought there was no problem, Li Qi opened the door and went in without being pretentious.

But in the room, there is a dim mirror.

Li Qi thought it should be a full-length floor-to-ceiling mirror before, but when he came in and took a look, he found that it was just an ordinary round mirror.

The mirror is eight inches in diameter, without decoration, very simple.

Li Qi walked around this thing, but didn't find anything special.

Zhenzhi Yun told him that there was some kind of avenue circulating nearby, but he just couldn't find the slightest trace.

However, it didn't take long before the terminal reminded him that the second exam had begun.

But an examiner pushed open the door.

It was Tai Xuecheng.

He smiled and looked at Li Qi: "I am the person in charge of activating the Three Lives Ancient Mirror this time. Candidate Li Qi is invited to sit in front of the mirror. The exam time is seven days. Within seven days, if you see through the Three Lives Mirror, you will be It counts as a full score, if we can't see through it, then we will examine the reaction of Sanshengjing, and according to the reaction score, we will divide it into four grades."

"You are familiar with the rules, candidate Li Qi."

Li Qi didn't doubt him, he just concentrated and nodded.

He knew in his heart that if his enemies in Tang State wanted to attack, now was the best chance.

So he didn't dare to relax. Although he didn't doubt others casually, he was also prepared, and he held the retrospective charm in his sleeve. If something happened, even if he gave up the exam, he had to save his life first.

You can't doubt others, but you must be prepared. If you are an enemy, you will never let go of this opportunity to attack him in an open and honest manner.

Seeing Li Qi getting ready, Tai Xuecheng smiled secretly.

Even if you are knowledgeable, you won't be able to escape this time.

Your master beheaded the heads of two third-rank officials, and it is only natural for you to pay the interest first.

Asking Li Qi to look directly at the mirror, he swaggered to the back, and then activated the Sansheng Ancient Mirror with his own authority.

Li Qi, who was staring at the mirror, felt a blur in front of his eyes.

All kinds of upside down, like charming.

Pure enlightenment, forever cut off ignorance.

Surrounded by immeasurable Sakyamuni Pilenga treasures, you can see that the mirror is shining brightly, covering all human beings, gods, voices, and bodhisattvas.

The sky and the earth are all dark, only the light of Buddha can be seen.

Boundless and inconceivable.

Indescribable, without remnants.

I can only see the void, and the light shines on it.

Li Qi only felt that there were many things in the world that he didn't see for himself, and he didn't see him either.

All forms are completely wiped out, and one cannot see one's own form and appearance.

And there is no that, no this, and no middle, no matter what you see, everything is like this, and you can no longer see the sun, moon, stars, earth, water, fire, and wind, and there is no eye-to-eye.

Li Qi couldn't see anything except the Buddha's light in front of him, and at the same time lost all five senses, leaving only the inner thinking to continue.

The ears do not hear the sound, the nose does not smell the fragrance.

The tongue does not know taste, the body does not know touch.

There is also no object for all the mental counting methods, no recurring appearance for me, no thought of the separation of the six entrances, and no great beings.

The whole world seemed to disappear.

I can only see the Buddha's light in the mirror, flowing out all the pure and true suchness.

Soon, the Buddha's voice suddenly sounded in Li Qi's ear, and someone was speaking in his ear.

Bursts of Buddha's voice vibrated, and there came a wonderful sound:
"World Honored One, I wish that all Bodhisattvas and all sentient beings in the last age who practice the Mahayana will hear about the pure state of perfect enlightenment. What is practice?"

"World Honored One, if those sentient beings know that they are illusions, their bodies and minds are also illusions. Why do they practice illusions based on illusions? If all illusions are completely extinguished, then there is no mind. Who is practicing? How can you say that practice is illusions? If all living beings , I don’t practice at all, but I have always lived in illusions in life and death. I have never known the illusory state, so how can I liberate my delusional mind, I wish to help all sentient beings in the end of the world, how to practice gradually, so that all sentient beings will be free from illusions forever.”

Then, a higher voice was heard.

That voice seemed to come from the infinite distance, echoing through the entire universe.

The voice said:
"Good, good, good man, you are able to practice the bodhisattva-like illusory samadhi for all bodhisattvas and sentient beings in the last age, and the expedients are gradual, so that all sentient beings can escape from all illusions. Now listen carefully, and I will explain it to you."

Li Qi could understand these words.

It seems... there is a Bodhisattva praying to the World Honored One.

Who is the World Honored One?

Of course there can be no other people, the World Honored One, Vairocana Buddha!

The content of the prayer is that this Bodhisattva wants to preach to the world, so that all living beings in the world from now to the end of the world will be free from illusions, and let them realize the existence of "truth".

So, the World Honored One replied to him, what you said is very good, then you can try it.

However, after the sound ended, the Buddha light in front of Li Qi's eyes suddenly disappeared.

He regained his perception of the outside world, but... At the same time, he felt another force.

Something was carrying his perception across the universe quickly.

Not through space, but through 'universe'!
The universe and cosmic light are being traced back at the same time!

Li Qi has a wisp of Dao charm in the universe, and he will use it to comprehend and study from time to time. Although the progress is slow, it can be regarded as gaining.

Now this universe dao rhyme is directly activated, just because of the aftermath of the Sansheng ancient mirror.

Li Qineng felt that the ancient mirror reacted mechanically, as if it wanted to help him go back to his previous life.

After all, it's not a living magic weapon, so Li Qi was coerced to go back very bluntly!
His perception was carried through the infinite space, the infinite light of the universe!

The endless and magnificent scenes that Li Qi saw were not known to outsiders.

The examiner behind him, that is, Tai Xuecheng himself, was quietly paying attention to Li Qi's movements.

Very good, Sansheng Ancient Mirror started normally.

This Mr. Wushenshan...has a lot of good things on him, and even two dao rhymes have been activated.

A rhyme between the universe that can expand the space and represent 'big'.

What's another one?
I can't see it clearly, such a secret Dao Yun, it seems that I have never seen anything like it, and I don't know what is the wreckage of Dao Yun?

But no matter what, it's just a dao rhyme, and it doesn't seem to have the effect of protection, so it's useless.

Therefore, Tai Xuecheng just stood there obediently, waiting for Sansheng Gujing to go back to the past.

According to past experience, the Three Lives Ancient Mirror will show his past, present, and afterlife after a while, showing every detail.

Then, all these will reveal all the flaws in Li Qi's Dao Heart, and he will face his own weaknesses directly.

When Sansheng Ancient Mirror is applied to one's own people, it can help people make up for these flaws and cover up all shortcomings.

When it comes to dealing with the enemy, it is natural that the person who manipulates the mirror can take advantage of these weaknesses and defeat the enemy.

But now, it is necessary to take advantage of these weaknesses and implant the demon energy of the sky.

Time passed little by little.

After about 5 minutes passed, Tai Xuecheng's expression changed a bit.

what happened?

Logically speaking, the appearance of the third generation should appear immediately in about 1 minute. If the cultivation level is too high, it may be delayed by a minute or two.

But as long as it is a volunteer who does not resist, it should not be delayed for too long.

As for this Mr. Wushenshan, it is useless for him to resist, he is only a mere eighth rank, how could he resist Sansheng Gujing?

Then how come 5 minutes failed to retroactively succeed?

Tai Xuecheng stepped forward to check the Sansheng Ancient Mirror to see if he hadn't activated it.

It's okay not to check.

Just going up to check it out, his heart skipped a beat!
Sansheng Ancient Mirror is frantically absorbing power!
Originally, the energy consumed by this thing requires the full support of a third-rank to operate at a time.

But now it can be activated casually because it is connected to the dragon veins below Chang'an and is powered by the dragon veins.

But now, Sansheng Ancient Mirror!It has absorbed more than ten times more energy than before!

The surrounding dragon veins are overloaded!
 A funeral at home, two days ago, I took the time to write these two chapters. Today I kowtowed during the day and kept vigil at night, adding up to [-] hours in the mourning hall. I didn’t sleep. Take a day off.

  I'll try my best to update later, I can't guarantee it
