Beginning as a Tantric Academy Monk

Chapter 511: Weighing
The monk designated by the "Scripture Monks" who was eloquent and good at speaking was called Batu.

He had no other Buddhist name and was used as a cook monk in the temple's kitchen.

It is not known whether he is eloquent or not, but it is clear that he can eat and sleep well. He has broad shoulders and a strong waist, so he certainly does not look hungry.

But it is also true that even in a temple, if the cooks do not steal, the grains will not be harvested.

Even the monks who served the food could receive a piece of butter, not to mention the monks who cooked the food. Batu's heart leaped with joy when he heard that he would be following the Buddha.

I am following the Big Buddha!

This is me, Batu, the supreme glory of my parents.

I am full of Buddha's energy!

This kind of glory filled his central channel with energy, and his entire back began to straighten up. At this moment, he stood beside Lu Feng, and his height seemed to have increased a few centimeters, just like a "Vajra Guardian".

Seeing this, Lu Feng said nothing, but just shook the "prayer wheel" in his hand, walked out of the hall with him, and asked: "Batu, has anything big happened in the temple these days?
The so-called big event is something that scares you all and is something that has never happened before.

Just like yesterday the cow was eating grass, but today the cow disappeared, this kind of thing can be called a big event. Batu, even if you follow my advice, what big event has happened here?"

In order to prevent Batu from not understanding, Lu Feng also gave him a metaphor.

Of course, you can also communicate with Batu through methods such as "one heart to another" and "one lamp to another".

There is no need for this.

Batu heard this and said without much thought: "Yes, yes.

To reply to the Great Buddha, some time ago when we were eating fried rice in the morning, several young monks in the temple disappeared.

We searched for a lot of things in the temple. The Buddha didn't let us sleep at night and locked us in the room. We couldn't even go out to look for feces or urine.

It has not been found until now.

This is a very important matter, but when the Buddha comes, these monks will definitely find it."

Batu was not complimenting, he really thought so.

"How many monks are missing?"

Lu Feng shook the "prayer wheel" and asked, "How old is this young monk?"

Batu stretched out one hand, then stretched out another.

Lu Feng didn't need to look at his fingers. Just a quick glance would tell him what he was thinking.

That is around five years old, and there are a few kids between ten and five years old, six in total, and these six kids all have names.

Lu Feng was not surprised that such a big baby was sent to the temple.

This is a common occurrence in the "Secret Law Realm".

What made Lu Feng frown was, where could a baby of this size run to?

Batu didn’t know, but Lu Feng knew.

I'm afraid this is not lost.

This was taken away by someone.

If the entire temple is searched thoroughly, only three places will remain uninspected.

Lu Feng had already taken a glance at the Buddhist hall on the second-floor attic when he came.

In fact, even at this distance, nothing could be hidden from Lu Feng's eyes.

The Buddhist temple has nothing to do with it.

——Lu Feng went to the “Forest of Steles”.

This "Forest of Steles" is also a secluded place in the temple. When coming here, even the big and strong Batu shrank his neck.

It's a bit cold.

Lu Feng came to the faded red lacquer door. In fact, even at the door, you know what's inside, but there are some things that you still have to take a closer look.

There is a big chain on it, which is already rusty.

Lu Feng asked Batu to guard outside and not to enter no matter what happened.

"You stay here. If I haven't come out by the time the sun sets, you don't have to come in.

I just want you to run to the main hall and tell this matter to the master who scares you the most.

The rest has nothing to do with you.

Since you helped me, tell the other monks and say it was me who said so. I will give you an extra handful of dried meat to eat."

After Lu Feng finished speaking, without waiting for Batu to answer, he opened the lock and went in!

The most frightening person is naturally the "Lion Vajra Guardian".

Batu did not dare to disobey the words of the Great Buddha and just stood aside and watched. However, the wind around him seemed to be even colder, causing this monk who was not afraid of the cold to start shrinking his neck and shivering.

Lu Feng walked beside this "forest of steles" by himself.

He didn't feel any "weirdness" and naturally didn't feel cold.

However, this place is a bit eerie, which may be related to the feng shui of the place.

However, there is no need to rush to ask someone to look at the feng shui.

Lu Feng has never forgotten his teacher, "Liu Liuguan", who is a Feng Shui expert.

Lu Feng learned the "animal face reading technique" from "Liu Liuguan", which is also a "geomancy technique". There is a hidden lineage in it, but unfortunately Lu Feng has no intention of putting his "resources" here.

So it was put on hold.

If there is an "incarnation", then the "incarnation" can study this method.

However, this matter had nothing to do with what was happening at the moment. All Lu Feng saw was a desolate scene.

There is not an inch of green on the land.

It is a tamed wasteland.

In this wasteland, Lu Feng found twelve stone tablets at a glance.

Among them, most of the stone tablets are broken.

Lu Feng closed the door with his backhand and walked in slowly.

These stone tablets should have been covered with red cloth, but it is unknown when the red cloth fell to the ground, revealing the "inscriptions" inside.

As for the red cloth, it had been exposed to the wind and sun on the ground and had all turned into mud-like objects. Even the color of the paint had seeped into the soil. Lu Feng took a look and found that these inscriptions were not from the same scene.

It seems more like it came from a different era and was moved here by someone.

and,

Most of these inscriptions are in the Central Plains language.

It is not the "Central Plains court writing".

But this is normal, as the spread of court writing has been gradually fading.

Later on, even the so-called "nobles" could not understand the writing, which made the emperor at that time furious!
He angrily denounced these people for being ignorant, forgetting their roots, and not even being able to learn their own skills.

But even if I curse, I still won’t do it.

This saved Lu Feng some effort. After all, Lu Feng did not know the "palace language". Lu Feng came to an inscription and read it. At the beginning, there was a traditional record, which said -

Ok?
After two or three words, Lu Feng saw that many words had disappeared from the "inscription" in front of him. This inscription should be very high.

But now the monument only reaches Lu Feng's waist.

The above part was interrupted by someone else, and it has been interrupted for some years.

From this broken aspect, everything has become rounded.

The many texts underground were not affected by such interruptions.

Although there are a few cracks, they are expanding due to wind and sun.

But it does not affect the text below.

The reason why Lu Feng couldn't continue reading was that, except for the first few words, the surface of the inscription was clean and neat.

It was like the tender face of some nobleman who had rubbed oil on it, so shiny, smooth and delicate that it seemed as if it could be blown away.

Not to mention there are any words on it, even if someone used a machine to polish it, it couldn't be polished so cleanly. It's so shiny that you can reflect a person's reflection in it, and there's no sign of carved words at all.

Lu Feng reached out to touch it, but naturally seemed to notice nothing.

Someone has devoured this place, and not only has he devoured these words, he has also devoured this "past".

"Interesting, interesting."

Lu Feng fiddled with the rosary beads and spoke slowly.

After making up his mind, Lu Feng walked in the forest of stele again.

He saw that most of the "inscriptions" had disappeared.

These monuments rise and fall, but there is only one that is the tallest.

In the middle of all the steles, there is a complete "stone stele", but in front of this "stone stele", there is a pair of footprints, as if there is a person, and "it" is standing here, looking up at the stone stele in front of it. Lu Feng looked at the square footprints. No matter whether this person is a man or a woman, "it" is wearing women's shoes.

There is also a hint of "weirdness" hidden in the shoe print.

Lu Feng looked down at it, then stepped into the room, just like the "ligui", and looked up at the inscription.

Suddenly, a "strange rhythm" came out from under his feet and turned into reins, as if it was going to strangle Lu Feng's neck and strangle him to death here!
Lu Feng remained calm and allowed these "weird rhymes" to strangle him and make him look upwards. Even from this perspective, what Lu Feng saw was "the sky"!
He could not see the inscription.

In other words, the "Li Gui" here is actually looking at the sky?
When Lu Feng looked again, the wind around him had become more and more urgent. In this urgent wind, there were suddenly some vague figures around Lu Feng. It was a pity that these were just "weird rhymes". The real "ligui" had left here for a long time.

There is no coming back.

Before he got close, Lu Feng casually turned the "prayer wheel" at hand, and the "prayer wheel" sang a circle of the "Great Compassion Rhythm" of the Six-Syllable Mantra, which strangled all the "weird rhymes" and turned them into a wisp of black smoke, which fell into Lu Feng's "human skin scroll"!
Stop here, the wind here is very strong.

It seemed like something was angry.

But it couldn't scare Lu Feng.

Lu Feng's expression remained the same as before. He stopped where he was and said, "I'm here!"

After a while, the sun moved a little bit, making Lu Feng's shadow longer. There was no other noticeable change except that the wind was a little stronger.

Although he did not call those "evil and strange" creatures out, Lu Feng was not disappointed or sad.

Instead, he looked up at the tallest stone tablet.

This tallest stone tablet has also changed.

The "inscription" above seemed to be blurred, as if the words on the stone tablet were written with an ink pen, but now it was washed by a rain, and it became blurred in an instant, making it difficult to see clearly.

Lu Feng stared at it, thoughtfully.

A pair of footprints were left here. Lu Feng took a look around and walked out.

When he reached the door, he closed it with both hands, but took out a hair from his clothes - it was the hair of the "Dalai Lama".

Tied lightly here.

Just left.

"Let's go."

Lu Feng said to Batu who had been waiting outside the door for some time.

This is one of the three places where such a discovery was made.

It seems that there will be even more wonderful things to see at the end of this big temple.

It was also the first time that Lu Feng served as the "shopkeeper" of a large temple. Many things were more important than his, so he had to shoulder all the responsibilities himself. However, compared to the "Sunrise Temple" back then, things here were relatively simple.

Waited next to the woods.

Lu Feng asked Batu to go back.

"When you go back, just ask everyone to stay together and wait for me to come back.

If I don't come back, let them do what they did before."

There is no need to tell Batu too much.

It was these few words that Batu was asked to take back.

Lu Feng believed that he could remember these words.

After doing all this, Lu Feng stayed here alone.

This forest is not far from the temple, but it is not from the same origin as the forest you met when you came in from outside.

The trees here looked much thicker and darker in color than those in front, but the strange thing was that Lu Feng felt a sense of "depression" from the "lush and green" in front of him!
Lu Feng is outside the woods at this moment.

He lowered his head to glance at the bloodstain on the ground that was barely visible to the naked eye.

This is the blood of the monks in the temple.

This is what was left behind when the wolf came to replace people last night.

But in these places——

The most important thing is not here!
Lu Feng waved his sleeves casually, and the ground here was easily turned over, revealing the yellow paper underneath.

There are also some silver notes.

"Selling your life for money?"

When Lu Feng picked up the banknotes, he felt a "strange charm" spreading towards him from the banknotes.

Lu Feng did not resist and just let these "strange rhymes" sweep over and come to his side.

Lu Feng felt that the sky was getting dark before his eyes, and he also "saw" a straw appearing on his neck.

"Put in a bid and sell the first."

Lu Feng was not nervous at all about the sudden appearance of "darkness". This thing was just like his own "Buddha Land Dharma Nature". This alone showed that it was also a "big weird" with a history! Just when Lu Feng was casually pulling the dry grass off his back, there was a noise in the woods.

Lu Feng looked up at the depths of the woods, and saw a man wearing a melon-shaped hat. He wanted to leave after he appeared, but was grabbed back by Lu Feng! He was held in front of him!
"Now that you have seen me, why are you still not coming over? Aren't the banknotes in your arms enough to redeem a monk like me?"

As he spoke, Lu Feng casually took out a stack of "silver bills" from his arms. On these "silver bills", many malicious intentions were like maggots on the heel, clinging to Lu Feng's body, but they were all "removed" by Lu Feng's backhand. Lu Feng could sense that there was something measuring the "weight" between him and these "silver bills".

Lu Feng was not lying. This small amount of "silver note" could not possibly be used to buy or sell a monk like Lu Feng.

Therefore,
He looked up.

And the "Li Gui" should be coming over!
