The years I was a birdman

Chapter 347

For a color-blind person, what is the scariest thing is the night. For Zhang Shifei, the night is completely dark. What I saw was just pitch black.

To say that the trees in this underworld seem to be of this kind, the palm-shaped leaves are patted all the time, it sounds fresh at the beginning, but after a long time, Zhang Shifei actually appeared in his heart. The inexplicable feeling of irritability, maybe it's an illusion, he always felt that these broken trees were laughing at him, mocking his ignorance and arrogance, and the mortal body wanted to make trouble in the underworld?

Zhang Shifei's mood became more and more irritable, and he wished to cut down these broken trees immediately, so as to have a quiet life, but he also understood that there were so many trees that he could not cut down, so he had no choice but to be stubborn. Scalp continued to search in the woods, and when his patience was about to run out, he finally found something unusual.

In the huge forest, Zhang Shifei suddenly saw something white behind a big tree not far away. Zhang Shifei felt a little strange, so he walked forward and saw a table-sized The rock appeared in front of his eyes, and the whiteness was the color of the rock. Zhang Shifei was overjoyed at once. Unexpectedly, his color blindness would come in handy at this time. Since his eyes only have three colors of black, white and gray, so in this In the dark forest, I am so sensitive to the feeling of white that I found this big rock by accident.

Zhang Shifei immediately went forward to touch it, and saw a very inconspicuous cross mark on the bottom of the big rock, which was obviously not formed naturally, but was carved on it the day after tomorrow. This is the shortcut recorded. It is clearly recorded in the booklet of Land Boundary that this stone is the key to the shortcut, so Zhang Shifei followed the record in the booklet and pushed the stone hard with both hands. The stone rubbed against the ground and made a creaking sound, and under that stone, there really was a hole in the ground for one person to widen!

After Zhang Shifei saw the cave, he was overjoyed. Who would have imagined that there was such a hidden passage in the forest under Wangxiangtai Mountain in the Underworld?Zhang Shifei looked at the dark hole without hesitation, and jumped into it with a single leap. The hole was not deep, and it was only about two people tall. Zhang Shifei immediately stood firm. In this hole, Zhang Shifei could easily No more scruples, I saw that he was using his immortal bone spirit, under the blue light, the structure in the cave was clearly visible, this is indeed a tunnel dug by man, Zhang Shifei thought in his heart, there is a passage horizontally on the side Extending, Zhang Shifei moved forward with the spirit of immortal bones. The ground under his feet was warm. It was really strange that he could feel the heat even in such a gloomy ghost world. After Zhang Shifei thought about it, he also Relieved, didn't it mean that hell is underground in the underworld, it seems that I am really not far away.

It is not far, but Zhang Shifei still walked for a long time. The length of this tunnel far exceeds Zhang Shifei's image. After about half a day, Zhang Shifei only felt that his feet turned into an upward slope, and he walked two more times. After a few steps, there was no road in front of him. Zhang Shifei stretched out his hand and touched the end of the cave. It was very hard and it was obviously a stone. So he took a deep breath and slowly pushed the stone with his hands.

Slowly, the stone was pushed away, and a ray of light shot in, which made Zhang Shifei, who had long been accustomed to the darkness, unable to adapt to it. Zhang Shifei narrowed his eyes, and pushed the stone away again, and then saw Clarified the scene outside.

Zhang Shifei was very surprised. He really didn't expect that there was light in this underworld. He thought it was gray all the time. What caught Zhang Shifei's eyes was a grassland that looked very comfortable. Zhang Shifei crawled out of the cave. , I saw that the entrance of the cave was also located under a big rock. Zhang Shifei pushed it just now, but it was a relatively small rock.

Zhang Shifei looked around. Although the light here is not very bright, it is obviously much stronger than the darkness, and the surrounding scenery does not seem to protrude from the underworld, but rather a peaceful grassland, surrounded by silence, Zhang Shifei probed around and was stunned. Although it was not dark here, the sky was still full of haze. However, in the direction of his right hand, a light shot down from the distant sky!

That's right, a seemingly holy light pierced through the dark clouds and directly enveloped a small area. Zhang Shifei looked up and saw that on the ground illuminated by that light, there was a building surrounded by red walls and green tiles. The small buildings surrounded are like a villa or a temple-like house.

Zhang Shifei was surprised, this is the underworld, how could there be such a strong light?So, he was a little curious, and hurriedly sealed the hole again, and then he walked forward quickly. The closer he got, the brighter the light became. However, although the light from the sky was bright, But it is not dazzling, but gives people a very peaceful feeling, until Zhang Shifei came close, only to see the temple-like building under the reflection of white light, and a rainbow-like light appeared on the roof , the light was very beautiful, even though Zhang Shifei didn't intend to stop there, he was fascinated by it, and a faint sound of chanting scriptures came from the temple, even though he couldn't understand the meaning of the scriptures, Also feel very comfortable.

Zhang Shifei felt that it was novel, so he looked at the temple carefully, and saw a couplet on the gate of the temple. The first couplet is: Thinking of the world, the sea of ​​suffering is surging and fascinating, and the second couplet is: Entering the underworld, you need to hear the sound of the magic law for liberation.There is no horizontal plaque, but there is a plaque with three big characters written clearly. Those three big characters are made of gold, and they are called "Tingjingsuo", which listens to the sound of the world.

Only then did Zhang Shifei know that he had successfully bypassed the ghost town of Fengdu and arrived at the place where he listened to the scriptures. Suo' gave a two-line explanation surprisingly. Zhang Shifei remembered that it was written like this: Listening to the scriptures, the mysterious life, good souls are lucky to get the scriptures, and the wonderful method of Ksitigarbha transforms all phenomena, making the dead souls easy to practice. Until the day when the fruit is first formed, the three ways to ascend to the immortal are infinitely wonderful.

It was not until a long time later that Zhang Shifei accidentally discovered the secret of the Sutra Auditorium on a lone copy of an ancient book. It turned out that the Sutra Auditorium was a paradise in a hellish place. Although the Underworld is a place of ghosts, there are also true Buddhas , that is the famous Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the kindest Bodhisattva in the world, and its full name is 'Great Wish Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva', whose name is "be as patient as the earth, calm and considerate". Secret as a hidden treasure."

Although his morality and morality are enough to achieve the highest golden body, he did not do so, because he once made a vow, saying, 'If the hells in the ten directions are not empty for a day, I will not be a Buddha'!It can be seen that there is a heart of compassion, but the eyes of the world are blinded. If the butcher's knife is not put down, I am afraid that hell will hardly be emptied.

In other words, among the underworld, hell is the worst. As the saying goes, where poisonous snakes haunt, there must be an antidote within the first step. This is also the principle of mutual generation and restraint of all things. Not far from the underworld, there is such a place , named "Listening to Sutras", according to legend, Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha lives in hell, and every fifteen days, he will go to this "Listening to Sutras" to give lectures, and those who can come to this listening to Sutras are some The good ghosts in the underworld, or the ghosts with benevolent and intelligent roots selected by the king of Tibet from the hell, the Bodhisattva of the Bodhisattva preaches the scriptures for them, and imparts the righteous way selflessly. After the Dharma-rectification, they will benefit endlessly. What's more, they can even get rid of karma and become the body of ghosts and immortals. After that, they can go to the immortal's home through Santu Village to become the Dao.

It can be said that the Santu Village in the underworld was mostly prepared for the members of the "Listening to the Scriptures". Of course, Zhang Shifei didn't know this at the time.

At that time, he just felt that the scriptures in this temple were so pleasant, and he was reluctant to leave for a while, and the scriptures in his mind seemed to give him a feeling that he did not want him to leave. However, even if he is reluctant, he must leave, because he understands that this place does not belong to him, and he is just a passer-by. Chen Tuan told him before that trespassing in the underworld is a serious crime, and ten thousand deaths cannot escape him. Guilty passer-by, how can you have the leisure and elegance to listen to this mysterious political law?

But when he thought of this, his heart couldn't help becoming angry again, what was his guilt?What is Liang Yun'er guilty of?Why did you fall into hell?The world is not fair, fate is not kind, can we just knock out our teeth and swallow them in our stomachs?What a joke! !

They locked the wrong person in the first place, why didn't they let her out?Is it because of the rule of hell that there is no return?I rely on!

So, Zhang Shifei sighed, what's the use of thinking about it?He already understood that there is no answer in this world, so although he couldn't bear to leave, he still had to leave. Just now he listened to a scripture outside this temple, which made Zhang Shifei feel very emotional, although he didn't know it at the time. I don't know who read this scripture, but gratitude still grew in his heart, so he bowed to the temple outside the wall, and then said softly: "Thank you, but I must to go."

After all, Zhang Shifei turned and walked forward without turning his head. He didn't know it, but this bow helped him untie a lot of good fortune.

After walking aimlessly like this for more than 20 minutes, the 'listening place' could no longer be seen, only a beam of white light shot down from the sky in the distance, Zhang Shifei looked in the direction in front of him, still Unable to see anything, Zhang Shifei lost his way for a while on the grassland.

So, he thought in his heart, it seems that it is time to use the method that my father taught me, so he took off the necklace tied on his hand, held it in his hand, took a deep breath, and read aloud: : "Qi connects all things from beginning to end, and all things have spiritual power Wukong, I will give you two breaths of clear and turbid breath, and find someone for me to set off quickly!" After saying this, Zhang Shifei blew the breath that was turbid with his own immortal bone power into his hands The necklace, after two consecutive times, his Qi attached to the necklace.

This is exactly the method of finding people that Chen Tuan passed on to Zhang Shifei. If you say that the current Zhang Shifei doesn't know his own skills at all, after beheading the three dragons, he is completely proficient in the whole school, and he learns things very quickly. I didn't expect to learn this kind of fairy art after listening to it a few times. I have to say that this is also his good fortune. However, if there is a choice, maybe Zhang Shifei will not want this kind of power even if he is killed, because, This is good fortune through great sacrifice.

Seeing the slight shaking of the necklace, Zhang Shifei knew that the method had been accomplished, so he hung the necklace around his neck. Just as he put it on, the pendant of the necklace suddenly lifted up, like a guide Generally pointing down on the right hand side.

That's over there, Zhang Shifei thought of this, he transformed himself into a bird again, and then flew in that direction, about half an hour, a building finally appeared in front of Zhang Shifei's eyes, this building is very strange, It covers a very large area, and it looks like a wall. The wall is astonishingly high, about 40 meters, and the things inside the wall cannot be seen clearly. When the peacock flies close, there are two sides of the tightly closed gate. A pair of huge couplets, the first couplet reads: Whether it should or not, everything has evil consequences.The second couplet reads, right and wrong, where can sentient beings cry for injustice.

And the horizontal batch is also the same plaque, with the three big characters "City of Death in vain" written on it.

Right and wrong, where can sentient beings cry for injustice?After Zhang Shifei saw this sentence, he smiled wryly. This is the origin of his name. Thinking about Zhang Shifei, he was also very strange about his own name. Why is it so different?So he asked his father, who told him that it was winter when he was born, and it snowed heavily. At that time, life for him and his mother was very hard, and the stall had just been established, so There was no black and white, no busy day, until Zhang Shifei's mother had a big belly and was still working. But that morning, Zhang Shifei's mother suddenly had a stomachache. His father felt that she was about to give birth, so he took him to When I went to the hospital, Zhang Shifei was also very disobedient since he was a child. When he arrived at the hospital, he tossed and tossed for nearly a day. Seeing his daughter-in-law in such pain, Zhang Shifei's father was as anxious as burning his butt.

But her mother has a stubborn temper, she doesn't say anything about caesarean section, and wants to give birth normally, so his father has no choice. It was not until night that his mother's amniotic fluid broke and she was pushed into the operating room. Zhang Shifei and his father had a busy day. Didn't go to the bathroom, couldn't hold it any longer, so ran downstairs for convenience, and when I came back, I only heard the cry of a baby in the corridor, Zhang Shifei's father was so happy, so he ran over without thinking, and saw A nurse was holding a baby, and snatched it away without saying a word, and then burst into tears.

But as soon as he rubbed twice, suddenly a man jumped out of the side, pointed at his nose and began to curse, saying that he robbed his child. Zhang Shifei's father was stunned at that time, thinking what happened What's the matter?It turned out that this child was not Zhang Shifei, but another child. This child was born earlier than Zhang Shifei, and Zhang Shifei's father was too excited to become a father for the first time, so he made such a joke, saying It's a joke, but it's not funny at all. People at that time were all superstitious, and whoever was the first to hold a child and the first biological child would say it. Immediately, the family was not happy, and Zhang Shifei's father had a bad temper back then. It was also very aggressive, and I almost didn't fight with others. The nurse calmed down the dispute after a good meal of persuasion. Zhang Shifei's father was so useless, and at this moment, Zhang Shifei was born.

Mother and child are safe, Zhang Shifei's father regained his mood. When he was young, he couldn't listen to the tune. He looked at his precious son, and then remembered what happened just now, so he said with a wry smile: "My son Oh boy, it was you who made your father and me provoke Shifei for no reason, well, you should be called Zhang Shifei."

Therefore, Zhang Shifei's name was decided so dramatically. Zhang Shifei once thought it was just a joke made by his father after drinking, but he asked his mother again, only to find out that it was true, so he was depressed , This is my father mistaken the person, and it has something to do with me.

Hearing what he said at the time, his father smiled and scolded him: "Isn't it all because of you that I recognized the wrong person, and you are still stubborn?"

Is it because I got the wrong person?At this time, Zhang Shifei suddenly thought of this matter again, and suddenly there was a wry smile in his heart. Unexpectedly, as early as when I was born, fate had already given me a revelation. His life may be full of joy just like this name. Right and wrong, true and false, right and wrong.

But who can blame this?Zhang Shifei sighed, then flapped his wings, and flew over the wall in a blink of an eye. Only then did he see that this dead city was not a city, but a huge open space surrounded by four walls. It is full of people. According to legend, the ghosts who died in vain (including suicide, disaster, war, accident, murder, murder, etc., who died injustice are called vain death) are specially detained in the city of vain death. They were all concentrated in this wall that seemed to be the size of a city, and they could only be released from prison when their original fate ended.

Of course, this time is not that time. In modern times, due to the limited territory of the city of vain death, but the world is full of wars, there is an unwritten rule in the underworld, just like taking a train, that is, babies are not allowed to die in vain. Among them, as long as adults pay an extra fee to the ghosts, the judge will turn a blind eye and close one eye, and the punishment can be avoided. Therefore, many people who died in vain did not come to this city to be robbed, but were locked up Most of the people here are poor ghosts who have no children or grandchildren and no one to claim and support them.

Zhang Shifei looked at the ghosts in the city. Most of them were crying. There were those who committed suicide, those who died in car accidents, and those who disappeared because of something. They were all complaining about their fate and themselves, so that The dark clouds over the dead city made up for it, and it seemed that people's hearts were extremely heavy.

Zhang Shifei shook his head helplessly, and then flew forward quickly. About half an hour later, he finally flew away from the city of death. The surrounding atmosphere seems to have changed, the sky is full of dark clouds, and they are moving extremely fast, but these dark clouds are not moving left and right, but are constantly rotating and twisting in mid-air. It seems that the sky is about to boil, but The surrounding air also began to permeate this pungent sulfur-like smell, and the temperature also slowly increased. This temperature seemed to be able to directly touch the soul.

The farther he flew, the more Zhang Shifei felt his chest swell, and at the same time there was a slight tingling pain in his head. At this time, in front of him, a black building could be vaguely seen. There was an invisible pressure, there was no cloud in the sky above the building, and the surrounding clouds seemed to be pulled and flowed by the building, like a whirlpool. At the same time, there was an endless ringing of bells, and the bell Although the sound was far away, it seemed to directly hit Zhang Shifei's heart. Zhang Shifei was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the black building and swallowed.

He understood that the hell he was looking for had finally arrived!
