This monk was different from the ghosts Lin Feiran usually saw,
The ghosts that Lin Feiran usually saw,
Even if there were exquisite and beautiful facial features, most of them were not good-looking because their faces were lifeless.
However, other than the fact that this monk's soul was slightly translucent, it was no different from a living person. Even if it was a ghost, it was still very good-looking. The old monk's robes did not diminish his elegance in the slightest.
Lin Feiran was stunned for a moment.
Gu Kaifeng gripped Lin Feiran's hand as a warning.
"I..." I just felt that he was too much like a living person,
Lin Feiran thought in his heart, but his words were stuck in his throat.
Because both of them were shocked by the scene that happened in the next second.
In front of the monk stood a long line of ghosts,
Ghosts from all directions constantly rushed over to stand at the end of the line. Because the backyard was too small to stand in a line, the ghosts automatically formed an S-shape, turning left and right,
Filling the backyard to the brim,
The scene was like a train station's ticket hall on the eve of the Spring Festival.
An old man's soul walked in front of the monk and knelt on the ground,
The monk gently pressed one hand on the old man's head as if he was comforting a child,
The fingers of his other hand were clasped together in front of his chest,
Then he opened his mouth and began to chant scriptures,
Accompanied by the sound of the monk chanting scriptures,
The old man, who looked resentful and resentful a moment ago, seemed to have been melted by some kind of gentle power,
The corners of his eyes and eyebrows were filled with kindness and kindness,
Then, the old man's figure became fainter and fainter. Just like Miss Zheng's daughter before, that little female ghost also became fainter and fainter as her obsession dissipated. However, the process of the little female ghost dissipating her resentment was very long, but this old man completed this transformation in just a few seconds... very quickly, the old man, who had almost disappeared, suddenly dissipated into a gust of wind that brushed past his face.
"… He's sending them off," Lin Feiran explained softly to Gu Kaifeng.
The monk was doing the same thing that Lin Feiran had done for the mother cat and the little ghost girl, but his efficiency was much higher than Lin Feiran's. One every minute …
A ghost that transcends ghosts!
The two of them stared intently at the soul of the monk.
The monk released another two ghosts from purgatory. He seemed to have sensed an unusually fervent gaze from somewhere. He raised his head slightly and looked in the direction of the two people. Their gazes met for a moment.
Gu Kaifeng, who was visibly moved, was speechless.
Lin Feiran, who had a fanboy expression on his face as if he had already been turned into a fan, "…"
The monk: "…"
Seeing the monk looking over, Lin Feiran immediately greeted carefully, "Hello, Master."
The monk was silent for a moment. He stared at Lin Feiran with his light brown eyes. After a while, his gaze fell on Gu Kaifeng.
Lin Feiran put his palms together and said seriously, "Amitabha, I have the Yin-Yang Eye."
Gu Kaifeng turned his face slightly and coughed to hide his smile.
The monk also smiled, but it was very faint, like a shadow cast by the clouds. He nodded slightly and said, "Amitabha."
"You're amazing." Lin Feiran took a step forward and patted his chest. He was like a little fanboy who was eager to prove himself in front of his idol. He said proudly, "I've also released two ghosts from purgatory."
The monk said calmly, "A cat and a little girl."
Lin Feiran was dumbfounded. "How did you know?"
It could be said that he had already become a loyal fan!
"This poor monk has the All-Seeing Eye." The monk's eyes seemed to see through Lin Feiran to somewhere far behind him. "I can know what happened before and after death."
Lin Feiran suddenly remembered the booklet he had read before going up the mountain. A thought flashed through his mind and he asked, "Excuse me, are you Master Cheng Guan?"
The monk seemed to know that Lin Feiran would ask this question. He said calmly, "It's this poor monk."
"This poor monk hasn't spoken like this for more than a hundred years." Master Cheng Guan paused his purgatory and said slowly, "Benefactor must have heard of this poor monk's legend."
This sentence sounded like a question, but the tone was firm. Maybe it was because he would know even if he didn't ask.
"I've heard …" Lin Feiran said. His gaze stopped at the bodhi tree beside Cheng Guan. He asked softly, "Is that true?"
Cheng Guan's voice was far away, as if it came from another world. It was faintly discernible, yet firm and calm. "Yes."
Saying this, the monk under the bodhi tree got up and looked up at the big tree with luxuriant foliage. He stretched out a phantom hand and pressed it against the rough bark of the tree, gently stroking it. The affectionate arc of his fingers didn't seem like he was stroking a tree, but more like he was teasing a young girl's long hair.
"This is her reincarnation. I can see it." Cheng Guan smiled.
A soul that was contained in the depths of the tree, spotless, weak, yet persistent.
Lin Feiran couldn't imagine what this tree looked like in Cheng Guan's All Seeing Eye, because even with his Yin-Yang Eyes open, Lin Feiran could only see an ordinary bodhi tree.
He didn't expect that what was written in the booklet was actually true. Lin Feiran had even seen who knows how many ghosts, so he was very receptive to things like people being reincarnated into bodhi trees. He was silent for a moment, quickly going through the story in his mind. He asked half sadly and half nervously, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Gu Kaifeng hooked his arm around Lin Feiran's shoulder and pulled him over. Very naturally, he agreed with his wife. "Please don't hesitate to ask, don't be polite."
Cheng Guan withdrew his hand from the bodhi tree and turned his head to give them a deep look. Presumably, he could tell that the two of them were sincere. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Could I ask benefactors to go to the west, three li away from here, to pick a Buddhist Jadeite?"
Lin Feiran didn't expect Cheng Guan's request to be so simple. Just as he was about to express that he could suggest something else, he heard Cheng Guan's clear voice say, "That's her favorite flower. Thinking about it, the flowers on the west slope should be flourishing right now. This poor monk would like to invite her to take a look."
"Alright! We'll be right back! " Lin Feiran agreed. He pulled Gu Kaifeng and was about to pick the flower. After the two had walked a few steps away, Lin Feiran asked Gu Kaifeng with a face full of ambition, "Kaifeng, which direction is west?"
This little thing, let alone west, he couldn't even find the right direction to leave the temple … Gu Kaifeng sneered. He grabbed Lin Feiran's wrist and pulled him in the opposite direction. After the two had left the temple, Gu Kaifeng led Lin Feiran onto a small path. With a slightly teasing tone, he said, "Darling, this is west."
Although the weeds on both sides of this dirt path were lush, the areas in the middle that didn't have any grass had been stepped on very firmly. It looked like it was often used by people, but tourists wouldn't come here. Gu Kaifeng walked in front to open the path. Lin Feiran obediently followed behind him. He said embarrassedly, "My sense of direction isn't very good."
Gu Kaifeng's gentle voice came from the front. With a smile, he said, "Indeed, it's not very good."
Lin Feiran, "…"
At this time, shouldn't you refute me and say, "Actually, it's not bad!"
At this time, Gu Kaifeng, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned around. Lin Feiran didn't stop and bumped into him. Gu Kaifeng took advantage of the situation to wrap his arms around him and lowered his head to kiss him. He said, "You don't need to look for directions. Just look for me."
"En." Lin Feiran didn't want to be outdone and kissed him back domineeringly.
The two walked on the mountain path for quite a while. Three li wasn't very far, but they had used up a lot of energy climbing the mountain. After walking for so long, they were still a bit tired. This was the West Slope that Cheng Guan mentioned. Winter was the most pleasant time in H City. The wind was just right and the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers. Lin Feiran walked into the underbrush and crouched down. He fiddled with the flowers in full bloom in front of him and said, "These should all be Buddha Jadeite."
Although he didn't know much about flowers and plants, there was only one type of flower that bloomed best in the surrounding mountains and plains. The petals were thin and light, and the colors were gorgeous. Most of them were bright red and yellow, and they looked very elegant as they fluttered in the wind.
Lin Feiran saw a flower that bloomed beautifully. He reached out his hand to pick it, but Gu Kaifeng suddenly said, "Darling, why don't we dig up a few of them and plant them there? That way, they will be able to see it. If we break it down, it won't look good tomorrow. "
"Okay." Lin Feiran rubbed his hands and prepared to dig.
"Go sit on the rock over there." Gu Kaifeng rubbed Lin Feiran's head and handed the backpack on his back to him. He crouched down and said, "This kind of dirty and tiring work, your husband will be responsible for it. You only need to be responsible for giving your husband motivation."
Lin Feiran obediently took the backpack and gave Gu Kaifeng a big kiss on his left cheek. He asked, "Is the motivation enough?"
Gu Kaifeng turned his right cheek again. "Come again. Kiss me on the other side."
Lin Feiran kissed him again.
Gu Kaifeng turned his left cheek again. "Continue."
After repeating this ten times, Gu Kaifeng finally had enough motivation.
Lin Feiran, who kissed until his mouth was sore, "…"
What happened to the promised "kiss me on the other side"?
Could it be that he was a ten-sided person?
Gu Kaifeng carefully dug out two stalks of Buddhist jadeite. In fact, as long as he wanted to, he could dig out as many stalks as he wanted. However, he still had to plant them back later, so it was best to dig out a little less. If he planted too many, he was afraid that it would attract the attention of the other monks in the temple.
After digging out the Buddhist jadeite, the two of them walked 1.5 kilometers back to the temple. At this time, there were fewer tourists in the backyard. Cheng Guan was still under the bodhi tree performing expiation for the ghosts. Gu Kaifeng secretly bent down and dug under the bodhi tree. Lin Feiran carried a huge backpack and blocked behind him, blocking the sight of other tourists. It should have rained just two days ago, so the soil under the tree was very soft. Gu Kaifeng quickly transferred the two stalks of Buddhist jadeite. He didn't know if there would be more small Buddhist jadeite in the coming year.
"Many thanks, benefactors." Cheng Guan helped another ghost and got up to bow to the two of them.
"You're welcome." Lin Feiran used a wet towel to carefully wipe Gu Kaifeng's muddy hands. "Is there anything else we can help with?"
Cheng Guan's eyes slightly flashed. "If it's possible, this poor monk still has a request."
Lin Feiran: "Please speak."
"I once vowed to enter Buddhism for the rest of my life and save the world. However, when I was seventeen years old, I went down the mountain to beg for alms and met her." Cheng Guan turned around and stared at the tree. His eyes seemed to have clouds that didn't disperse all year long. "It was a fleeting glimpse, but it made her die with hatred. She reincarnated into this bodhi tree and accompanied me in the temple for ten years …" Cheng Guan's sigh was as soft as a dream. "In this life, she was only a tree. After this poor monk died, she could no longer see this poor monk."
