Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 278

After stepping into the middle stage of the Yin God, Li Daoxuan's supernatural powers of recruiting clouds also became faster. When he stepped on the auspicious clouds, he cut through the void like a shooting star, as fast as a phoenix, and every breath was enough to fly hundreds of feet away.

If someone looked from the ground, they would be able to see a flawless and soft white cloud quickly across the sky in the clear sky.

Li Daoxuan's long hair fluttered. In order not to startle the snake, he deliberately changed into a brocade attire, with long sleeves, a jade belt hanging from his waist, and a folding fan in his hand. With his handsome appearance, he looked like a master.

Of course, it would be more convincing if he is not riding the clouds and fog.

Under the extreme speed of Zhaoyun's supernatural power, more than 200 miles is just a flick of a finger, Li Daoxuan flew in only a moment, this is still a wrong way in the middle.

Now it is You time, which is about five o'clock in the afternoon in later generations.

The yellow rooster crows at dawn and ugliness, and the daytime reminds the new year to die.

Facing the setting sun, Li Daoxuan landed in a secluded corner, tidied up his slightly messy hair, and then swaggered towards Shanghe Village, constantly looking left and right, as if he was traveling.

Shanghe Village is not too big, and there are no strange mountains and rivers. The only feature may be its remoteness.

Surrounding Shanghe Village, there are no traces of other villages, as if this is the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming.

But Lee Do Hyun soon found out that his feeling was wrong.

Because on the road into the village, many traces of ruts can be clearly seen, and judging by the size of the wheels, it is not an ordinary carriage. Most of the people who come here are either rich or expensive.

On the farmland in the village, he didn't see any "yellow hair hanging down, and he was happy." Many people here have returned to their homes and sealed the doors and windows. Occasionally, he saw a few people with numb faces. The walking dead in general.

Li Daoxuan noticed that they have a common feature, that is, the dark circles under their eyes are very obvious, and their spirits are very listless.

It seems like I haven't slept well in a long time.

Could it be insomnia?
Li Daoxuan stopped one of the old men, and said with a smile: "Old man, I'm Li Xunhuan, I want to ask you something."

The old man was pale and thin, with deep dark circles under his eyes. He looked up and down with those cloudy eyes and said, "You can ask someone else, I'm going home."

Li Daoxuan took out a tael of silver and handed it to him.

The old man's eyes lit up slightly, but he didn't take the money immediately, but asked instead: "Tell me first, what do you want to ask?"

Li Daoxuan said with a smile: "To be honest, I'm here to fulfill my wish for my wife."

The old man was stunned, as if he had already guessed.

"After I got married with my wife, although the piano and the harp were chords, the lady was not pregnant for a long time. Later, the lady heard that the Songzi Guanyin Temple here is very effective, so she came here to offer incense and petition. After returning, she was really happy. !"

Li Daoxuan showed a very "grateful" look, and said: "The lady is weak, and it is inconvenient to trek after the wedding, so she specially told me to come to the Guanyin Temple to fulfill my vows and put on a golden body for the Bodhisattva."

"Old man, I'm actually just asking for directions. I don't know how to get to the Songzi Guanyin Temple?"

Hearing this question, the old man turned down the money.

He pointed to the east and said, "It's over there, just turn a few turns, and there is a lake next to the temple."

After a pause, there was a trace of piety in his eyes, and he said: "The Bodhisattva in the temple is very effective. My daughter-in-law went there to burn incense and conceived. You come to pay back your wish to the Bodhisattva. I don't want your money!"

Li Daoxuan nodded, then put the silver in his hand into his hand, and asked: "Old man, I want to ask you one more thing, why do people here seem to have not slept for a long time?"

Hearing this question, the old man's face changed drastically, and he looked at Li Daoxuan with suspicion.

Li Daoxuan immediately explained: "Old man, don't think too much, I have studied medicine for several years, and I am most curious about all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases. Seeing your qi and blood are weak, and Yintang is black, I want to ask more."

The old man hesitated, but finally accepted the money.

He took a deep look at Li Daoxuan, and said: "My lord, remember, it's okay to come here to offer incense, but...don't stay here overnight."

Li Daoxuan asked doubtfully, "Why?"

The old man didn't answer, but just shook his head and said: "Master, you must remember, don't stay here overnight, and if you have to stay overnight, don't fall asleep!"

Then without waiting for Li Daoxuan to ask, the old man turned his head and left, returned to his home, and immediately locked the door behind him.

This abnormal behavior made Li Daoxuan even more certain that Shanghe Village was really weird.

At the same time, he discovered that the villagers in Shanghe Village were not suffering from insomnia, but... they were afraid of sleeping, as if something terrible would happen if they fell asleep.

interesting……

Li Daoxuan twirled the folding fan in his hands, put it on his back, and walked towards the Guanyin Temple.

……

Guanyin Temple is built next to a lake, the scenery is very beautiful, there are flying birds circling, flying in small groups in the sunset, passing by slightly, it looks very peaceful and peaceful.

The temple is not big, but the incense is very strong, and Li Daoxuan can smell the sandalwood in the temple from ten feet away.

"The lotus on the seat bears fruit frequently, and the willow in the vase grows its own branches."

Li Daoxuan read the couplets on both sides of the temple gate, and there was a hint of thought-provoking in his eyes.

Is it really so effective?

You must know that even in the era when the gods and Buddhas were alive, this kind of temple was not perfect. Gods and Buddhas listened to the prayers of all living beings.

Moreover, the reason why some people have no children is because of karmic reincarnation, which is predestined by God, and gods and Buddhas generally will not intervene in this matter.

But the small temple in this remote village has been tried and tested repeatedly, and it is so miraculous, there must be some secret hidden in it.

Li Daoxuan remained calm and prepared to step into the temple.

Suddenly, a figure came out from the inside first, it was a gorgeous woman in gold and silver, she seemed very excited, almost bumped into Li Daoxuan, muttering something.

"The Bodhisattva has appeared, and the Bodhisattva has responded to me!"

"Great, I'll be pregnant soon!"

……

Li Daoxuan stared at her back, frowning slightly.

It's not that she is greedy for beauty, this woman is considered beautiful, but to Li Daoxuan, it's nothing more than that. The reason why he was attracted to this woman was because there was a faint evil spirit on her body.

But she is not a demon herself, she is indeed just an ordinary person.

"Avalokitesvara Temple?"

A sneer appeared on the corner of Li Daoxuan's mouth, and he stepped forward.

The space in the temple is not large, and only the statue of Guanyin is enshrined on the shrine. Under the statue, there are a little boy and a little girl, namely Shancai Boy and Dragon Girl.

An old monk was sitting under the futon, tapping the wooden fish lightly.

The sandalwood is long, accompanied by the crisp sound of wooden fish, but it has the temperament of an ancient temple in a deep mountain.

Li Daoxuan stared at the statue of Avalokitesvara, and found that its features were compassionate, demure and holy, but after watching for a while, the statue gradually changed.

The benevolent brows and eyes were closed, showing a bit of coldness, and the Zen-like smile on the corner of his mouth also turned into a sneer.

Even the willow branch in her hand turned into a human leg...

From the merciful and merciful Avalokitesvara in white clothes who saved all living beings, he suddenly became a ruthless and vicious monster.

But when Li Daoxuan blinked her eyes, she became the sacred, solemn and compassionate Avalokitesvara again.

If ordinary people encountered this kind of thing, they would have been scared to death, but Li Daoxuan was naturally calm, and even looked around with interest.

At this moment, the sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly.

The old monk raised his head, quietly looking at Li Daoxuan with deep eyes.

"Buddhas have thousands of faces, thousands of faces and one heart. Humans have one face, one face and thousands of hearts."

"Amitabha, I don't know what kind of bodhisattva the donor saw?"
