Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 410 Be possessed by a demon?

The flesh and blood entering his throat was like swallowing a mouthful of hot lava. The flesh and blood directly burned the throat. The huge pain made Zhang Miao scream "Ouch!". In an instant, he was scalded to death by the power contained in this mouthful of flesh and blood. .

The evil ghost that Zhang Miao transformed into was instantly 'purified' and his whole body exploded. At this moment, his soul returned directly to Honglian Temple's body under the influence of the secret method.

Zhang Miao woke up with a "whoosh" and suddenly shot up from the bed. He subconsciously touched his body and found that he was fine for the time being. He breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to himself: "It's so scary, this is the real Buddha."

He transformed into an evil ghost and wanted to bite open the Buddha's body and then enter Ksitigarbha's body. It's like an evil maggot entering a person's body through a wound. However, the power of the Buddha's body exceeded Zhang Miao's expectation. The evil ghost's body simply could not withstand that power and was directly purified by the 'Buddha's light'.

'But it's not that I gained nothing. At least I swallowed a little bit of Buddha's flesh and blood, and I got a little bit of Buddha's nature. 'Zhang Miao thought so. This was his only gain.

The flesh and blood of the Buddha's body is not real flesh and blood, but the Dharmakaya of Ksitigarbha. This Dharmakaya is the condensation of his Buddhist path and Dharma. Every mouthful of flesh and blood contains Ksitigarbha's Buddhist teachings. If his Buddha body can be swallowed and digested, one can actually obtain all the Buddhist principles understood by Ksitigarbha.

Ksitigarbha uses the Buddha's body as bait to lure countless evil ghosts in the Blood Sea Hell to devour him. In the process, Ksitigarbha will use the great Buddha's Dharma, great wisdom and great vows to purify the sins of these evil ghosts, allowing them to attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven. .

The evil ghosts in hell have an unparalleled desire for the body of the Buddha. It is like a delicious delicacy in front of a gourmet, who cannot hold it at all.

Zhang Miao got a mouthful of flesh and blood this time and was 'purified', but the mouthful of flesh and blood he got gave him a hint of Ksitigarbha's Buddhist path.

This kind of risky behavior also brings big benefits. Even if ordinary Buddhist monks have such a disrespectful heart and want to devour Ksitigarbha's Buddha body, it will be difficult for them to resist the evil thoughts of evil spirits. But Zhang Miao is different. He has six pure bamboos. He can rely on these treasures to block the erosion of evil thoughts, and then go to collect Ksitigarbha's wool.

After swallowing this mouthful of flesh and blood, Zhang Miao took out the Ksitigarbha Sutra and studied it. Perhaps because of this mouthful of flesh and blood, his understanding of the scriptures became much stronger.

After a few days, the mouthful of flesh and blood was digested. Zhang Miao decided to enter hell again.

With the help of the secret method, Zhang Miao fell into the bloody hell again. He turned into an evil ghost again and headed towards Ksitigarbha's dharma body again. This time, he fell farther away, and the attraction of Ksitigarbha Buddha's body was not that great. Even though some evil spirits around him were attracted by the Buddha's body, they would still follow their instincts and grab the evil spirits around him who were weaker than him and devour them.

In hell, it is normal for powerful demons to devour weak demons. The evil spirits who fall into hell are not only 'evil', but also 'hungry'. The so-called "not full" means that no matter how much the evil ghost eats, he will never feel full and will become increasingly hungry. This hunger will cause them to devour everything they can see, and other evil spirits are no exception.

Zhang Miao just fell down. He was thin and not big. In an instant, he was grabbed by a big hand, grabbing him and stuffing it into his mouth. The owner of this big hand is an extremely tall evil ghost.

This evil ghost has felt-like hair and a beard, and its body is green and white with bloating. Under its thin neck is an abdomen that is as swollen as a ball, and there are countless ghost faces in the abdomen screaming and crying. These evil ghosts are the evil ghosts it has devoured!

Zhang Miao was caught and was about to be stuffed into his mouth. Zhang Miao narrowed his eyes and became angry. He didn't care so much. He turned his hand into a knife and slashed at the evil ghost.

The sharp sword energy directly cut off the evil ghost's arm, and the evil ghost wailed in pain. And Zhang Miao also broke free from the hands of the beheaded ghost.

The evil ghost was in pain, but it also awakened a little bit of wisdom. It looked at Zhang Miao angrily, and grabbed Zhang Miao again with its other hand. Zhang Miao sneered, raised his hand again, and swung it hard at the evil ghost again.

The Po Liu knife directly split the huge evil ghost in two, opened his huge head, and cut open his swollen abdomen. Countless evil ghosts crawled out of his tattered body.

These evil ghosts that crawled out did not retreat immediately. Instead, they bit directly on the body of the huge evil ghost and began to eat the evil ghost. Countless evil ghosts rushed towards the huge evil ghost, and in an instant a huge evil ghost was formed. The devil's hill.

Zhang Miao looked at all this coldly, this is the hell realm occupied by evil spirits! He turned around and continued towards Ksitigarbha.

On the way, Zhang Miao once again killed several evil spirits without eyes. If these evil spirits wanted to devour him, they would be killed by him.

When Ksitigarbha got closer, the evil spirits were attracted to Ksitigarbha, their instincts were suppressed, and they had only one thought in their bodies, which was to devour Ksitigarbha! At this time, there were no evil ghosts to devour other evil ghosts, and there were no ghosts reaching out around Zhang Miao.

In Zhang Miao's heart, he could not help but have the thought of being "hungry" and "wanting to eat". As soon as this thought came out, it would be absorbed by the six pure bamboos. However, this thought could never be eliminated as long as he was still evil. Ghost, as long as Ksitigarbha's Buddha body is still in front of me, this thought cannot be given up.

Countless evil spirits raised their hands, trying to catch Ksitigarbha from the heights. And this action caused the evil ghosts to build up one by one, like stacking Arhats, stacking up a high hill of evil ghosts, extending directly to Ksitigarbha.

Zhang Miao stepped on these evil spirits and crawled towards Ksitigarbha. He kept pushing away the evil spirits next to him, and finally came to Ksitigarbha's feet. Then, he withstood the endless Buddha's light and bit Ksitigarbha's feet again! ——

Zhang Miao woke up from the Red Lotus Temple again. He suddenly coughed violently, and then vomited out a mouthful of black flesh and blood. The black flesh and blood was squirming, and it slowly gave birth to hands and feet, and then it even wanted to get up and leave.

Zhang Miao looked at this thing with cold eyes. He picked up the vajra and swung it, and swung the karma-breaking knife. With a "chicken" sound, the black flesh-and-blood villain fell to the ground and died, turning into a pool of pus.

This is alien flesh and blood...

After Zhang Miao continued to enter hell and devoured Ksitigarbha's Buddha body, part of his body was contaminated by Buddha nature, and he actually had his own Buddha nature. Buddha once said that all things have Buddha nature, and anyone with Buddha nature can become a Buddha.

Part of his body had been contaminated with too much Ksitigarbha's Buddha nature, and had given birth to his own Buddha nature. Then he betrayed Zhang Miao and wanted to become one on his own. This part of flesh and blood has no thoughts and only has Buddha nature. It was separated from Zhang Miao's body and can essentially be regarded as a 'clone' of Zhang Miao.

This kind of 'clone' has no body and no soul. It is the product of "great injustice" and is not tolerated by heaven and earth. It is a monster when it is born. Zhang Miao naturally couldn't let it go and would definitely kill it.

This kind of monster is very difficult to kill. Fortunately, Zhang Miao knows the karma-breaking knife, which can cut off cause and effect. Zhang Miao only needs to cut off all the cause and effect on the monster, and then the monster will die naturally.

If a thing has no cause and effect with the world, then even though it appears to exist in the world, it is actually not allowed to exist in the world. For example, if there is a person who does not have any relatives or friends, or any job status, he will be turned a blind eye even if he stands on the street, then he does not exist in this world, because he has not left any traces in this world, even No dog on the roadside will urinate at his feet! This is the power of cause and effect.

The Karma Sword can kill such monsters. But after all, this was the meat that fell from Zhang Miao's body, which caused great damage to Zhang Miao. The loss of this part of his body caused his throat to stomach and even part of his lungs to disappear. Fortunately, he didn't need to eat or use his lungs to breathe, otherwise he would have died on the spot.

Without a throat, it was difficult for him to speak. He did not speak at all. He just sat down cross-legged and continued to meditate on the Ksitigarbha Sutra.

In the process of harvesting wool again and again, as he devoured more and more Buddha bodies, he gained a deeper understanding of Ksitigarbha's Buddhism. With this understanding, coupled with the understanding of the scriptures, he has a deeper understanding of Ksitigarbha's Tao...

Now, if he participates in scripture debate, he should be promoted to a high-ranking master. This is a path that others have taken for decades, but he can complete it in just one year!

Within days, his missing throat, stomach and lungs had grown back. He also left the hut and went to pay his respects to his master.

While walking in the Demon Suppressing Cave, other disciples also greeted him. Zhang Miao also forced out a smile and nodded to them one by one. It's just that now, he no longer has the enthusiasm and freedom he had before.

After he left, the other disciples started talking quietly.

"Junior brother Lian Zhen seems a little cold lately. Does he look down on us?"

"It's hard to say. He is now a disciple of Master Jingzin. He may really start to look down on us."

"Hey, power changes people. Junior Brother Lian Zhen used to be such a good person."

"Forget it, he's not from the same group as us, let him be."

Everyone's discussion made Duoye a little uncomfortable. He liked this junior brother very much. But Junior Brother Lian Zhen has indeed undergone great changes these days. He has become more and more indifferent. Duoye feels a strong sense of alienation in him, as if he is getting further and further away from this world... …

On the other side, Zhang Miao came to Master Jingzeng's house. Master Jingzeng also frowned when he looked at him.

"Lian Zhen, what are you practicing during this time? Why do I feel that you are becoming more and more ethereal...as if you are gradually leaving this world? What happened to you?"

Zhang Miao was silent for a while, and then he said calmly: "I understood the Karma-Destroying Knife and saw the line of cause and effect."

Hearing this, Jingzeng was happy at first, and then he was surprised. He immediately said: "Can you see the line of cause and effect? ​​This...did you use the karma-cutting knife to cut off your own line of cause and effect?"

Zhang Miao nodded calmly. He was using the karma-breaking knife to kill the monsters that fell from his body. In fact, he was using the karma-breaking knife to cut off the causal thread on his body!

Now, except for a few thick causal lines on his body, all those dim and thin causal lines have broken and disappeared!

Seeing Zhang Miao nodding, Master Jingzeng's expression changed drastically. He immediately scolded: "You! Why are you so confused! Cause and effect is an important proof of your existence, just like the umbilical cord between a baby and the mother. You cut off the line of cause and effect. , is to cut yourself off from this world. Cutting off the umbilical cord before you were born is cutting yourself off from the world!"

Net growth is spinning in circles. He never expected that his disciple could actually see the line of cause and effect! His Buddhist path is not deep, and his knowledge is not broad. He must have just realized the karma-ending knife, and then without understanding the current situation, he swung the knife at the thread of cause and effect wrapped around his body!

Why is this disciple so reckless!

"You can't continue to cultivate the karma-breaking knife, you have to stop, you have to find your own karma!" Jing Zeng said to Zhang Miao immediately. After saying this, he said sadly: "You are confused. This karma-cutting knife is only used by eminent monks in the Nirvana realm to cut off all the karma for the sake of Nirvana. The fewer the karma, the easier it is to survive Nirvana. Your strength You have not yet reached Nirvana, but you have begun to cut off cause and effect. You are..."

The state of Nirvana is the state of overcoming tribulation. Taoism has to survive nine calamities, and Buddhism has to do the same. Taoism is about absorbing calamity light and overcoming calamities, while Buddhism is about solving cause and effect and nirvana. When all causes and effects are resolved and they are completely alone, they can achieve Nirvana and become Buddhas. At that time, the Buddha did not belong to this world, so it was not surprising that he renounced himself from the world.

At this moment, Jing Zeng suddenly looked at Zhang Miao. He widened his eyes, exhausted all his magic power, and even the veins on his forehead popped out. He looked behind Zhang Miao, where it was hazy and vague, as if there was a giant Buddha standing behind him.

When he wanted to take a closer look, the Buddha just opened his eyes slightly and glanced at him. Jing Zeng felt as if he was hit by a mountain. He flew out suddenly and hit the rock wall behind him, falling down.

Jing Zeng couldn't care less about his embarrassment. He pointed at Zhang Miao and said in disbelief: "You... you... behind you... have you fallen into the devil's path?!"

Zhang Miao shook his head and said: "How could I fall into the devil's path? I'm just closer to the Buddha's path..."

His words fell in Jingzeng's ears, but they made him shiver. This is what demons say most often! Not only did he fall into the devil's path, but he was also the top devil. He already had his own path!

"What's behind you is not a Buddha! It's a demon!" Jingzeng said through gritted teeth.

"Behind me?" Zhang Miao was stunned for a moment, then he said with a dumb smile: "No, behind me there will only be Buddha, and behind me, there will be Ksitigarbha."

"No! You are possessed by a demon! What evil method did you use? You were seduced by the heretic demon who transformed into Ksitigarbha! Wake up! Wake up!" At this moment, Netzin finally knew what happened to his disciple. What happened.

He waved his hand suddenly, and the Angry King Kong who was sitting cross-legged in the shadow suddenly opened his eyes and hit Zhang Miao fiercely! The strength of his Angry King Kong should be between the first and second tribulations. Even a great monk in Nirvana will suffer from this blow!

This time, the net increase is also urgent. He has been guarding the Devil's Cave for many years and has never seen any kind of devil. He has also been tempted by countless devils, but he has never wavered in his Buddha's heart. On the contrary, the disciple he accepted in his later years, the disciple he accepted as his successor, became possessed under his nose!

What an irony.

Therefore, he had no backup plan for this blow. Even if he killed Zhang Miao, he would not hold back!
