Taiqing Sword

Chapter 61, Three Buddhist Monks

This early in the morning, Liao Xing came to Shangguan Jinghong's room: "Shangguan benefactor, are you awake?"

Shangguan Jinghong stayed up all night, opened the door with red eyes: "Master, what's the matter?"

"Shangguan benefactor, it seems that I didn't have a good rest last night. It's no wonder that the environment of my Buddhist sect is bad. Shangguan benefactor, the old monk came here to tell you that the old monk's uncle wants to see you."

Shangguan exhaled in shock, wondering what he was doing?Could there be a solution to Ningxin's matter, so he said: "Master, please wait a moment, I will wash up, tell my wife, and go."

When Liao Xing heard that Shangguan Jinghong wanted to talk to his wife, he was stunned for a moment, and sighed: "The benefactor is very affectionate and sexual, the old monk admires him, and the old monk is waiting for the benefactor here."

Shangguan Jinghong nodded, turned around and entered the room, quickly washed his face, and wiped Ning Xin's face again: "Ning Xin, I'll be right back, you rest for a while."

"Let's go, Master."

Liao Xing brought Shangguan Jinghong to the door of the monk's room again: "Uncle, Shangguan's benefactor has arrived."

"Oh, it's sex, you go, Shangguan benefactor, please come in."

Bowed and left, Shangguan Jinghong opened the door and went in, but there was not one old monk in the room, but three people, sitting on three lotus thrones, an old monk said: "Shangguan Jinghong, The old monk’s Dharma name is Jueming, this is the old monk’s brother Juekong, and this is the old monk’s brother Juexin.”

Shangguan Jinghong cupped his hands and gave a salute: "I have seen the three masters."

Juekong nodded and said: "Shangguan benefactor, I have heard about the matter of Ling's wife. Don't be too sad, the benefactor, the Buddha will protect him."

Shangguan Jinghong's face was sad for a while, and he forced a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Master, the junior has already seen it, life and death are fate, if my beloved wife can't wake up, I will accompany her like this."

"Amitabha, two senior brothers, why bother to beat around the bush, just put it bluntly, the Shangguan benefactor, the injury to his wife is not incurable." It was Jue Xin who spoke.

Shangguan Jinghong was pleasantly surprised when he heard the words: "Master, how can I save my beloved wife? Please teach me."

Juekong said: "Shangguan's benefactor, with the strength of my three brothers and sisters, maybe it can be saved, but it's not good."

"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, the juniors are willing to give it a try."

"The sincerity of the donor can move the world, the old monk feels and admires it, but..."

"But what?"

Juexin couldn't stand it any longer, so he rushed over and said, "Senior brothers are embarrassed to say, let the old monk tell the story, Shangguan benefactor, after hearing what nephew Xing said, Shangguan benefactor has clearly entered the way of magic in Kunlun Mountain, but still Keeping clear, the old monk and brothers were deeply surprised."

"It's nothing. In fact, the juniors don't know. At the beginning of the capital's slaughter of demons, they strayed into the blood pool and practiced magic skills by mistake. Later... Hey, let's just say it. Later, I occasionally saw a bunch of demons in the Tangmen of Sichuan and Shu... The Buddhist bead recorded a broken Buddha mantra, so the younger generation practiced it, maybe this is the reason." It's not that Shangguan Jinghong deliberately concealed it, but he really didn't know why he was still sober since he was insane.

"Amitabha, I don't know what the mantra is?"

"Six-syllable mantra."

The three old monks looked at each other and said, "Goodness, goodness, the six-character mantra is the supreme knowledge of my Buddhist sect. It was lost many years ago, and I don't want it to reappear in the world now."

Shangguan Jinghong said: "The junior is willing to return the six-character mantra to the Buddhist sect, and I only hope that the three masters will save my wife."

Juexin said: "The benefactor misunderstood, we didn't ask for the meaning of the six-character mantra, even if the benefactor didn't say anything, the three of my brothers and sisters would try their best to treat Ling's wife, but we just asked for one thing."

"The three masters, please speak, the younger generation will never refuse."

"There is a pagoda in my Buddhist sect, called Soul-Suppressing Pagoda, which is divided into seven floors, and each floor has an illusion. The three old monks asked themselves that there are few opponents in this world for their skills, but they are helpless and not afraid of this illusion. The benefactor knows that the top floor of the pagoda is the supreme secret technique of my Buddhist sect, Maha Wuliang, but unfortunately, the three old monks have never been able to do all the four things, so this magic power has not appeared in the world for hundreds of years. , I feel that the hope is quite high, so I ask the benefactor to help me."

Shangguan Jinghong smiled wryly: "The three masters are so powerful that they can't be obtained, so what if the younger generation is gone?"

"Shangguan benefactor missed the point. Anyone with high martial arts skills can go up this Soul Suppressing Pagoda. The most important thing is to cultivate the state of mind."

Shangguan Jinghong pondered silently for a while, but did not speak.

The three monks said: "It doesn't matter if Shangguan's almsgiver doesn't go, it's just an old monk's unfeeling request, and the three of us will still try our best to heal your wife."

Shangguan Jinghong raised his head and glanced at the three monks: "Three masters, how sure are you of healing my wife?"

The three monks looked at each other: "[-]%."

Shangguan Jinghong gritted his teeth: "Three masters, this junior will bring his wife here, and ask the three masters to treat her with all their strength. Tomorrow, this junior will go to the Soul Rescue Pagoda for a walk."

Juekong raised his eyebrows: "The benefactor has decided? The old monk has to remind me that countless disciples of our Buddhist sect have gone to the Soul Rescue Pagoda for hundreds of years, but no one has come out."

"Well, I have made up my mind, the three masters, if I can't come out, hey, if my wife is cured but I don't come back, I hope the three masters will tell her that I will marry another wife because of her death, Fly away..."

"Amitabha, the old monk knows."

Shangguan Jinghong bid farewell to the three monks, returned to the residence, looked at the still lifeless Ning Xin: "Ning Xin, you are about to wake up, just now the three masters of the Buddhist sect said that there is a [-]% chance of curing you, God Bless, but I can't accompany you, I'm going on a long journey again, this time I may never come back."

There was nothing to say all night, Shangguan Jinghong just looked at Ning Ningxin silently, as if he wanted to nail her face into his mind forever.

In the early morning of the next day, Shangguan Jinghong handed the condensed heart to the three monks, and took him to the Zhenhun Pagoda. Standing in front of the pagoda, looking at the towering spire, Shangguan Jinghong couldn't help thinking, this pagoda Is there really only seven floors?When the disciple guarding the pagoda saw Xing: "Amitabha, brother Xing, are you going to break into the pagoda?"

"Amitabha, that's right, but it's not me, but this Shangguan benefactor."

The disciple guarding the tower frowned: "This benefactor is not a disciple of my Buddhist sect..."

"This was decided by the three uncles, and Liao Xing was ordered to bring him here."

"In that case, please benefactor."

Shangguan Jinghong didn't enter the tower in a hurry, but walked around the tower twice: "Master Xing, I'm going, remember the promise to me."

Liao Xing clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, don't worry about Shangguan benefactor, the three teachers and uncles are highly respected, and what they said will be fulfilled, benefactor is careful."

Shangguan Jinghong stopped hesitating when he heard the words, and plunged in. After entering the pagoda, he could see the situation inside the pagoda clearly. The surroundings were filled with portraits of Buddha Sect. He had just taken a step forward when a domineering saber aura hit him. Shangguan Jinghong was caught off guard, his left shoulder was cut open, he was terrified, what happened, he was injured without feeling anything?He secretly said, no wonder no one has broken through this tower for hundreds of years. Where did this saber energy come from? I have never noticed it. How can I resist it?Shangguan Jinghong took another step forward, and a saber qi struck again, but this time Shangguan Jinghong learned how to be good, and transported the real qi to protect his body in advance, so that he could gain wisdom by eating it, but although this saber aura did not hurt Shangguan Jinghong, but this incomparably domineering aura made Shangguan Jinghong take two steps back. Shangguan Jinghong was very anxious, could it be that I can't pass the first floor?Shangguan Jinghong gritted his teeth and took another step forward, the saber energy struck again...

After going back and forth several times, Shangguan Jinghong finally realized that as long as he took a step forward, there would be a saber qi attack. This was a pain for Shangguan Jinghong. But I can't help but resist like this. Even if I go forward, I will be forced to retreat to the origin. Shangguan Jinghong stomped his feet and flew up to the entrance of the second floor. It doesn't matter if you fly. Dozens of saber qi struck at the same time, and Shangguan Jinghong's body-protecting zhenqi was instantly shattered, and the subsequent saber qi swarmed in. Shangguan Jinghong quickly retreated to the door, and seemed to be figuring out how the saber qi came out. Before that, I dare not move any more.

Shangguan Jinghong looked around without any abnormalities, and began to observe the murals around him. His intuition told him that the saber energy attacking him came from this mural. Shangguan Jinghong paced back and forth, surprised to find that no matter where he went Walk in that direction, and the eyes of the Buddha statues in the murals will look there.

In this way, Shangguan Jinghong walked back and forth for half an hour without thinking of any solution. He thought to himself, it is not a solution to spend all this time, it is better to put all his eggs in one basket. Although this saber energy is overbearing, at least he can bear it. It might be possible to break through, so I tried my best to resist, so I closed my eyes and took a step forward, but there was no saber aura as expected, Shangguan Jinghong was secretly happy that the saber aura was gone , opened his eyes in surprise, and suddenly the saber energy came out, hitting his chest, and he was forced to retreat to the door again.

Shangguan Jinghong frowned, why on earth is this, wait, I seemed to have closed my eyes just now?After opening the eyes, the saber energy reappeared?Could it be that the reason why these Buddha statues stared at me was because I stared at them?Thinking of this, Shangguan Jinghong found the location of the second floor, closed his eyes, stepped out with one step, two steps, and three steps, Shangguan Jinghong raised the corners of his mouth, as expected, he couldn't help but make up his mind , just keep your eyes closed and walk forward quickly, and walk quickly to the entrance of the second floor. You don’t open your eyes until you touch the stairs at the entrance of the second floor, and then you open your eyes. Sure enough, there is no knife attack, and then you look back. The mural It is still a mural, but the eyes in the mural are no longer staring at him, and at the same time, he saw a stone tablet at the entrance of the first floor tower and the second floor engraved with the word "heart eye". Shangguan was stunned, invisible to the naked eye. Only the eyes of the heart can see, what a soul-suppressing tower.

Shangguan Jinghong didn't have time to think about it, and quickly stepped into the second floor, but the second floor tower was empty, the surrounding walls were blank, there were no patterns, only the faintly bright lotus lanterns, but with the lessons of the first floor, Shangguan Jinghong He didn't dare to act rashly, even though Shangguan Jinghong didn't think he could get to the seventh floor, he didn't want to wait for death without doing anything, so he looked around to make sure there was no danger, and then he took a step forward.
