Beginning as a Tantric Academy Monk

Chapter 93 Footprints
Counting materials, recognizing numbers, and being able to do calculations are extremely rare and rare skills at any time. Literary literacy and logic are skills that only monks and nobles possess in the esoteric realm, so in the Many chieftain families would hire monks as their yeba to manage their business and become scribes for the nobles, which also gave some monks a way to find employment.

Lu Feng has always known these skills, but he has never shown them. During the ten years of his career as a Buddhist monk, Lu Feng understood that his status as a Buddhist monk did not allow him to use his "Su Hui" to shine like a jewel. If it shines, it will only make the high monk interested in his skull as a skull organ.

But now, Lu Feng's status as a sixth-level monk, coupled with the status of an endless white pagoda temple monk official (the monk secretary who registers the sixth-level monks every year), allows him to show some of his extraordinary methods. , if he becomes the real Dharma Platform Tripa, he can show his extraordinary side. At that time, all his incredible things will only become the Eight Treasures of Buddhism on the Buddha statue.

——Those wisdoms only set off his incomparable excellence and became a reason and evidence for his "reason to succeed and become a great monk". Just like everyone worshiping Buddha statues, the beeswax and gold around those Buddha statues are just called this. The statues of gods in the eyes of secular people are more noble and unattainable. It is not because of the gold and silver that makes these statues so special - all the Buddha statues in the esoteric realm are also secrets themselves.

Lu Feng has always been very clear about what is the main and deputy, and what is the inside and the outside. He even understands in his heart that with his current appearance, as a small sixth-level monk, he is far from being able to be called a master. A great part of the reason why a monastic protector like Zhiyuan treats him like this is because he is a disciple of Elder Mingli, and partly because he is now "protected by Bodhisattvas."

As the saying goes, "He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise."

A bodhicitta should always wipe away the dust.

His heart was as calm as water, and he followed Old Sariton to count the wealth here. At the same time, this count and inventory also allowed Lu Feng to have a great understanding of the Ganing family and the first generation presiding dharma master who surrendered the Ganing family. ——The Ganing family is also a deep-rooted family in history, and the first-generation presiding monk who took advantage of the "general trend" was also a ruthless character who could cut off his head and commit suicide even if the masters of the Ganing family at that time argued against it. , driving their descendants here, away from densely populated areas.

The Ganing family, as a long-established aristocratic shaman family, has made great efforts in inheriting knowledge and culture. Lu Feng just put these books aside and saw that the Ganing family has a deep understanding of rhetoric. They all have a profound understanding of rhetoric, as well as calendar arithmetic. Old Saridun said that for the Ganing family, wealth such as cattle, sheep, gold, silver and slaves is liquid. "If the cattle and sheep are gone, there will still be wealth. Calves and sheep are born” but knowledge is different.

Knowledge is the eyeball of the Ganing family, the heart of the chest. It is something that cannot be separated or abandoned, so they are all locked in the depths of the Ganing family, and are tightly bound there by the Ganing family. The shadow of this Dragon Sutra is filled with all kinds of secret protection and blessings. Lu Feng saw many familiar shadows from it.

Perhaps because of Lu Feng's "Gawu Box", these secret spells did not blind Lu Feng's eyes, damage Lu Feng's soul, or bring disaster and disease to Lu Feng just by looking at them. Lu Feng discerned these secret spells, I saw that some of the secret spells belonged to a more distant period, and the entire secret magic realm belonged to the "Witch Cult" era of great witches.

Because those secret spells are blessed at the bottom of all the spells, it means that they are the earliest spells to be blessed on these books. Every book here is inherited from the distant "Witch Cult" era. .

that time. "Witch Cult" is still the highest sect in the entire "Secret Law Realm (not called the Secret Law Realm at that time)". Even the nobles who later became the rulers were also the largest great witches themselves, and a large number of slaves were piled up regardless of life or death. The top great witches were the top figures in the pyramid of culture, politics, economy, and various resources at that time.

They enjoyed the highest power in the esoteric realm and had the most resources in the esoteric realm at that time, so these texts were also controlled by them.

Later, in the Tubo era, King Zanpu was also the largest shaman. It can be said that these books of the Ganing family are full of traces of history. Even Xiao Wuming has those great gods. The crystallization of the wisdom of witches, such as the book on rhythm, was written by those who achieved enlightenment in the "Witch Cult". The Ganing family obtained the secret book left by one of the named witches.

As for the more secret books, that is, the rhetoric on rhetoric and the rest of the "Dragon Book" written by the oldest great shaman in the "Witch Cult", as well as some prophecies, fables, and secret books, those texts are no longer available. Once again, it appeared on the surface that even the great shaman families like the Ganing family had no inheritance, and some even the great monks had not obtained. They became the real secrets of the esoteric realm and were connected with the entire esoteric realm. Just like the "Six-Character Great Ming Mantra", they can be seen everywhere, but they are invisible everywhere. They are hidden in the deepest night of the esoteric realm, and they are integrated with the entire esoteric realm, just like the tea leaves and the ingredients in a bowl of butter tea. Like butter, they are indistinguishable from each other, blending together like water and milk.

When he thought of this, Lu Feng had already drank a copper pot of butter tea. This was the second pot of butter tea. He licked his bowl clean, put it in his arms, and asked the old man again. Steward Saridon, can you give the butter tea to the monks and private soldiers down there?
Old Saridon was doing his best. He went down from the second floor and left Lu Feng here alone. Lu Feng sat cross-legged in front of the desk. He used to study hard and practice hard, but now he has the blessing of ancient scrolls and has achieved success in practice. , these books and treasures in front of him, only after Lao Sariton mentioned them once, he remembered them clearly, classified them into categories, and placed them among them.

He was the only one here. He put down all the books in categories, and then worshiped the "King of Treasures" in Gawu's box, and asked the "King of Treasures" to give him the supreme secret mantra to facilitate him to organize these documents and books. Gawu The Treasure King in the box was motionless and motionless, as if the red-maned white lion in front of him was just an illusion!

Lu Feng was not anxious, but continued to worship the "King of Treasures" with all his heart. Then he sat down cross-legged and began to practice the "Secret Mantra of the Immovable King".

……

Beyond the shadows.

The great sun in the Secret Law Realm rose from the sky again, and the Ganing Manor gradually became lively.

Early in the morning, in the sutra hall where Lu Feng and the others left, the sound of chanting came out. It was the sound of all the monks reciting the "Tara Mantra". Every day, Master Ganing would start from He woke up from the sound. At that time, the servant brought him water with salt and a bowl of hot highland barley wine to help him get up.At this time, outside the main sutra hall, the prayer flags hung by Monk Zhiyuan and Monk Zhi'an were taken down by Monk Zhi'an who came out and hung up other prayer flags, the crooked ones. The text is not Sanskrit, nor is it text in the esoteric realm. It is a "witchcraft" text that is not spread to the outside world.

These prayer flags are also different from the prayer flags in the temples in the "Tantric Dharma Realm". The patterns on these prayer flags are all in a "four-sided" form, which is different from a mandala, but more like a square. With a round appearance, Monk Zhi'an was still wearing the red monk's robe of the Endless White Pagoda Temple. There were also monks standing out from inside. Some were doing rituals, some were beating the prayer bowls, and some were blowing the conch shells.

Lively.

The Eight Treasures Banner on the main sutra hall also rose and slowly rotated, symbolizing the immeasurable Buddha treasures.

On that mountain, the stairs to the second floor of Dafufu's watchtower, which had not been occupied for a long time, were lowered, and the whole group of watchtowers came to life. The maid who came down first could not walk at first, but accidentally rolled from the top. Coming down - On the stairs of the Secret Magic Realm, there is no difference between rolling down and falling directly, and the injury may even be more serious.

The maid fell down and made a crisp sound of neck bones and cervical vertebrae breaking. If she were a normal person, she would definitely be dead, but she seemed to be fine, slowly getting up from the ground like a puppet on strings. In general, he stood up from the ground again. Every movement he made, and he even looked up, looked extremely strange and ferocious.

The "Tara Mantra" coming from the sutra hall should also sound extremely soothing and calming. However, when it was produced in the "empty" manor at this moment, it actually had a strange atmosphere out of thin air. A layer of gauze enveloped the entire manor, making the entire manor terrifying.

In such a strange atmosphere, the laughter of children came from the top tower of the current Lord Ganing, and a young nobleman wearing silk and satin jumped out from there. Wearing extremely rare bright yellow satin clothes, with beeswax rosary beads hanging around her neck, and otter skin sewn on her shoulders, she knocked on the wooden door outside the watchtower "house to house."

When you knock on the door, someone will open it from the inside and come out. These nobles are also divided into several levels. The nobles at the highest level are just like the children running around. They are wearing silk and satin. They are so precious. The clothes are all from the caravan of Zhaju main temple, as well as the caravan of the big temple, as well as tea bricks and other items.

Zhaju Temple controls the exclusive trade of all silks, satins and tea bricks. It is said that among the big temples, they have their own unique trade routes and channels. Just like among the five major temples, the largest temple in the south has its own caravan team, which can Obtaining precious seasonings and some tea resources from outside are real secrets. Lu Feng should be able to find them now, but he has no time to look them up.

Lu Feng was reciting the mantra at the moment. All the blessings he had obtained were crushed by his lotus platform and turned into the Great Compassion Rhyme. The Great Compassion Rhyme appeared from his umbilical cord chakra again, traveling along the top of his skull. on the road, passing through other chakras on the way, strengthening the chakra functions among them.

Then he met the golden beads and pearls, and finally came to the Seese throne. The flame of great compassion strengthened the flame of wisdom, turned into a raging fire of wisdom, turned into a divine wheel, and burned from Lu Feng's body.

The first level of the secret mantra does not require Lu Feng to possess many extraordinary mental states and abilities. This is also the uniqueness of the level of cultivation. It is not an illusory feeling, nor a sudden enlightenment, but just one step at a time. The way to move forward is progress if you make progress, and if there is no way to make progress, there is no way to make progress. Lu Feng's Rhyme of Great Compassion is progress, and it also progresses with the fire of wisdom.

The power of the secret mantra gradually seeped out from around him, turning into angry signs. Fortunately, it did not burn the many encrypted documents around him. When he was practicing, there was an open window in the shadow tower here. Among them, it can be heard that it is extremely noisy outside.

I looked outside through the open window on the second floor and could see the watchtowers and people outside. I don't know why.

Moreover, looking out from the watchtower on the second floor, you can see that the entire Ganing Manor seems to be alive, and all the people who disappeared in the past have returned.Not only that, Lu Feng was also practicing. Otherwise, he would have seen Master Long Gen, who had died with only human skin and leg bones, walking over from a distance.

He was full of energy, and he didn't look like a dead person at all, but for some reason, there was always a sinister feeling about him, like the smell of corpses from the rotting body of a dead person that lingered.

He held a human-headed staff in his hand, and he knocked the staff hard on the ground. Until he reached this point, the sound of him hitting the ground with the human-headed staff suddenly paused, and then began to circle around here. He kept beating, and strange sounds came out of his mouth. But no matter what, he could only circle around here, but he couldn't walk in here at all. After a while, he seemed to Feeling aware of it, he looked up again at the opening on the second floor - he could only see the appearance of the watchtower outside.

He unlocked the door of the watchtower and saw six footprints in the thick dust of the watchtower, three going in and three coming out.

Master Longgen then took out his human-headed staff and began to follow the footprints of a certain person. He started to follow the footprints exactly the same. However, after walking once, he felt something was wrong. He followed the footprints and found them again. There are footprints on the other side, walk over.

Finally, he chose the set of footprints that Lu Feng was walking on and stepped on them!
