Chapter 288 Don't Five Ghosts Wander around Buddhist Temples

?? "Shique, do you really think Dao Master will fight you to the death?" Duan Minghui, who fled to the distance from the ground, heard the roar of the centipede demon and said disdainfully, "If you hadn't had a good father to protect him, Dao Master would be afraid of you and run away?"

Duan Minghui once again despised the centipede spirit with muscles in his head, and did not dare to stay too long. He rushed towards Qiantang County. He went out of the mountain and came to the popular county town, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Now the Shinto is prosperous, and old monsters like the Golden Cymbals Dharma King will not easily break into the city where populations are gathered. I remember that in the original work, Xiaoqing just went to the county government treasury to steal some silver, and the door gods in the warehouse appeared to stop him. If a great demon really broke into the city and did evil, he would not believe that the divine weapons and gods in the heaven and the underworld would remain indifferent.

Back at the Bai Mansion of Shuangcha Lane, Qingbomen, after the old masters brought to collect ghosts by Li Gongfu, the already dilapidated house became even more messy. Fortunately, the yamen runners also did some good things and cleaned up the skulls in the courtyard and garden.

Duan Minghui walked through the yard and came to the backyard. He walked to a portrait hanging on the wall. According to the agreed signal, he patted his palms three times, and several light smoke floated out of the painting, showing his figure. He was the five brothers of Bai Fu.

"Young Master Duan is back? Thank you for your hard work, everything is going well, right?" It was naturally the boss Bai Fu who asked so politely and implicitly.

"Have you found the food? Take it out quickly, I'm almost starving to death!" Needless to say, I can't even remember to say polite words, naturally I'll starve to death.

"That's right, take out something delicious, we're all hungry." The other three brothers didn't show any good things, and didn't even know the most basic politeness. They kept shouting to eat, which made Bai Fu, the boss, look embarrassed.

"This, Mr. Duan, the brothers are all rough people and can't speak. Please take responsibility for it-" he said with a smile.

"It's okay." Duan Minghui waved his hand and stopped him from continuing. He reached out and took out the ghost-collecting beads from his arms and released the dozens of evil ghosts who were caught. He was afraid that the five brothers of Bai Fu would not be able to deal with the number of evil ghosts who were more than three times theirs, and he was considering whether to help. Unexpectedly, when these dozen evil ghosts were released and met Bai Fu a few times, they immediately turned into a docile kitten waiting to be slaughtered, and were swallowed by the five brothers of the Bai family!

"Why don't they resist? How did you do it?" Duan Minghui asked curiously.

"Although they look fierce, they are actually just lonely ghosts who have never been to the underworld. They are naturally suppressed by the little ghosts who actually escaped from the underworld, so they dare not escape." Bai Fu said with a burp. He was humble, but he really faced delicious food, but he was better than anyone else. He was the best among the five ghosts, so he naturally robbed the most, robbed four and a half, more than other brothers. On the contrary, the starving ghost who had been calling for the poor food was the worst, and he only robbed three, less than his four brothers. However, others were a little stupid, and they only scattered the evil ghost's thighs in their hands, but ignored him and robbed less than his brothers.

"You all swallowed it in one bite, why did he eat it in one bite like eating meat?" Duan Minghui pointed curiously at the Wu Wu Bai Yun and asked the boss Bai Fu.

"He, this is his special skill for starving ghosts. Because he is always unable to eat enough, he is used to biting these evil ghosts little by little, just like eating meat. In fact, those evil ghosts are just empty and cannot taste any meat," Bai Fu explained.

"Okay, the evil ghosts have also found food for you. I have also received the reward. If it's okay, let's leave. I'll think of going elsewhere to have fun." Duan Minghui saw that everything was done, so he resigned.

"No, Mr. Duan, we finally met humans who are not afraid of us, and are friends of our master Xiaoqing. Why not stay here for a few more days. If you are worried that this place is too dirty and messy to live, we can find some more bodies and take them to clean up for you." Bai Fu insisted.

The second brother Bai Lu also came to his senses and kept helping to keep him.

"He can leave if he wants to leave. Why do you leave him a human?" The third brother Bai Shou said in confusion.

Bai Lu murmured a few words in a low voice. Duan Minghui didn't hear it clearly from a distance, but the third ghost in the long ears heard it clearly, and a sudden look appeared on his face: "Yes, yes, Mr. Duan, don't rush to leave, let us do the best of the landlords' friendship?" He also began to keep it.

The fourth brother Bai Cai said in confusion: "Stern brother, why are you keeping him? Don't you hate humans the most? Is it said that they always make a lot of noise at night, which makes you feel uncomfortable?"

"What do you know? If Mr. Duan leaves, who will give us a delicious food like today in the future? Although we live in Qiantang, a place with many people, we will be in the land when we go out, and the city god will be in the city god when we look up. If we accidentally encounter the day trip and night tour gods who are patrolling, we can get a delicious food like evil ghosts when we have the strengths of our power?" The third brother Bai Shou gave the fourth brother a blank look and said.

The fourth brother then quietly realized, "In this way, Mr. Duan, you really can't leave!"

The eldest brother Bai Fu and the second brother Bai Lu showed a look of embarrassment on his face.

"It's okay to ask me to raise you, but what reward can you give me?" Duan Minghui took the last reward of ghost-taking bead in his hand and threw it over and down. That's very obvious: I want me to catch evil ghosts and give it to you, yes, but the reward each time must not be lower than the value of this bead, right?

Bai Fu and Bai Lu cried and said, "We are all little ghosts stranded on earth and serving as slaves. How can we pay you any external things? This bead is also the place where our brothers originally came to see him. Later, she followed Bai Snake and gave us this mural so that we can give it to you. In addition, we really have nothing valuable." The two cried and said poorly.

"Then there is nothing you can do. You didn't pay me any compensation. I'm not your master. Why do you want to support you in vain?" Duan Minghui spread his hands and said.

"But--" Bai Fu and others had to say something else, but they felt a flash in front of them, and the young master was gone.

"Oh, it's a pity that this long-term meal ticket is gone." The ghosts sighed.

Leaving Bai Mansion, Duan Minghui began to wander around Qiantang County. Speaking of which, there were several confusing names in the TV series, such as Qiantang, Hangzhou, and Lin'an. These places in the real world belong to the urban area of ​​Hangzhou, but in the TV series, these are obviously three different places. However, it can be roughly understood that Qiantang, Hangzhou, and Lin'an belong to three independent districts of the Greater Hangzhou City. Qiantang is close to Hangzhou and a little farther from Lin'an where the emperor was.

Although Qiantang County is a county, it is a capital county. It is naturally prosperous and rich. It is naturally not comparable to other places. Everyone wears silk and shiny, and is also located in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many natural beauties who do not use makeup. Although Duan Minghui has a girlfriend, it does not affect his appreciation of beauty.

While walking, he admired the authentic ancient costume beauties, and the Southern Song Dynasty style. Before he knew it, he had already visited most of Qiantang County. At this time, he discovered an interesting problem, that is, although the Taoist temples are numerous, most of them are dilapidated and have few incense, but they are far inferior to Buddhist temples and Heavenly Temples. He thought about it and remembered that the current reign of the Holy Spirit Wu Wenxianxiao, the little old man of Zhao Gou, changed his national policy in order to eliminate the influence of his father and brother, and vigorously supported Buddhism to fight against the formerly powerful national Taoism. The story of the Buddhist legend of the White Snake was also vigorously spread at this time and became the kind of TV drama.

"No wonder the Taoist sects and Buddhists tried every means to do small things, but it turned out that the battle between Buddhism and Taoism reached the most intense moment." He thought to himself. Follow a step and walk into a large Buddhist temple.

With other pilgrims, I crossed the hall-style corridor gate. The two generals of the aisle were enshrined on both sides of the aisle, guarding the Dharma, one closed its mouth and the other opened its mouth. After passing the Sanshan Gate, the Heavenly King Hall was on the front, which was enshrined with the "Future Buddha" and the Big Belly Maitreya Buddha. On the left are the four statues of heavenly kings: the Heavenly King of the East, the Heavenly King of the Growth in the South, the Heavenly King of the West, and the Heavenly King of the North. They are the most important Dharma protector gods in Buddhist Galan, and are in charge of the mountains, rivers and lands of the four continents in the east, west, south, and north. Behind the Maitreya statue is the statue of Weituo Dharma Protector Bodhisattva. This guy beat Duan Minghui so much that he didn't dare to go to the Journey to the West again. He felt guilty and did not dare to look at the statue of Weituo, and hurried out of the Heavenly King Hall.

After leaving the Heavenly King Hall, he followed the pilgrims to the main hall, which is the most important place for worship in the entire Buddhist temple. It is worshipped inside the Buddha of Heng Sanshi, Sakyamuni Buddha in the central Saha world, the medicine master in the eastern Pure Glazing World, and Amitabha Buddha in the western Pure Land. There are two ribs on both sides of the central Sakyamuni Buddha, the old one is called "Kasyapa", and the younger one is called "Ananda". On the east and west sides of the hall, there are eighteen statues of the Arhat.

Temple Zhu kept staring at him with bad eyes, a strange "pilgrim" who looked at the Buddha statue without restraint but did not burn incense and worship. The monk obviously had no cultivation. Duan Minghui ignored him. Later, he was annoyed by him. A dazzling technique was activated. The middle-aged monk only felt his eyes lit up suddenly, his eyes sting. He subconsciously wanted to curse. Finally, before the words were spoken, he remembered his identity and where he was now, and swallowed the curse that rushed in his throat. He didn't breathe in one breath, and almost broke away. However, he didn't dare to stare at the strange young scholar anymore.

"I'll buy a stick of incense, it's the money for incense oil." Just as Temple Zhu wanted to cough but didn't dare to cough, a pilgrim suddenly walked up to him, threw a few pieces of broken silver into the merit box, and said in his mouth.

"Amitabha, good, good, donor sincerely worships the Buddha, I will bless you-"The previous words are all set of words. He raised his head to see the other party's identity and decided to choose different versions of blessing words, but found that the person coming was the strange pilgrim who made him suffer unknowingly.

"...Bless you-" He was stunned for a moment. According to the original routine, the other party was dressed as a young scholar, so he naturally "Bless you to be a scholar and everything he wished for." But since the other party knows magic, he must not be the identity of a scholar. It is obviously inappropriate to say this. Moreover, judging from his actions, he obviously has no respect for Buddhism. What if he says "I Buddha bless you", will he offend him and give him an excuse to get angry? The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the temple will naturally not be afraid of him as a heretic, but he is an ordinary mortal, but he can't stand the anger of the other party. So he was speechless for a moment. His whole person was frozen there without movement.

"Why, isn't it enough to buy incense for so much money? The incense in Kyoto is too expensive, right?" the young man said unhappy.

"No, no, no, it's enough." Miao Zhu then realized and quickly handed over a pillar of good incense.

Duan Minghui ignored this temple blessing that he had thought too much, took the incense and lit it on a special incense candle, waved his hand to put out the open flame, let the incense linger, and respectfully held the incense in both hands and worshiped, and then inserted the incense into the penultimate of the eighteen Arhats.

"Boss Dragon Surrender, you said before that you were the leader of the Eighteen Arhats, but now it seems that you are just the second to last. Hehe, brother love, you are also bragging about it."

He was incense, but his prayers were not so respectful.

After coming out of the Main Hall, the halls on both sides are the Galan Hall, the Patriarch Hall, the Guanyin Hall, the Medicine Buddha Hall, etc. Duan Minghui was not interested in the first three, so he took a look at it briefly. Finally, he came to the Medicine Buddha Hall, which worships the Three Saints of the East. The Three Saints of the East are the Medicine Buddha Tathagata, with the sun shining all over the Bodhisattva and the moon shining all over the Bodhisattva. In addition to these three Saints, there are also twelve Yaokha Dharma Protector Generals.

Duan Minghui was interested in this Medicine Buddha Hall because he remembered the temple that Xue Muhua, the "Enemma of Hell" when he was in the world: the Medicine King Hall, but it was not him who worshipped inside, but the real Medicine King in China - Shennong. The place he gave him was the Great Disciple of the Medicine King and the Great Master of the Medicine King Sect of the World.

Perhaps it was because his colleagues were enemies. No matter how he looked at it, how did he feel that the three Buddhist saints in the Medicine Buddha Hall were disliked, especially the sunlight shining everywhere in the Bodhisattva. The sunlight shining everywhere, is he treating himself as the supreme sun? Big Sun Tathagata, you are the second child, do you think you are?

Because he was unhappy, he was a little embarrassed and took the incense and wished to get from the statue of Sunlight Bodhisattva. After waiting for the first dingdong to prompt "Calendar of the Masterless Incense 20 o'clock", he realized what he had done.

God, a Dharma protector, Wei Tuo Bodhisattva, scared him so much that he did not dare to go to the Journey to the West again. He actually provoked Sunlight Bodhisattva of the same level? It's over, it seems that this new white world will never come again.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he wanted to activate his time-traveling ability and escape before Sunlight Bodhisattva came to him.

"Hey, wait." He suddenly remembered something and quickly looked through the prompt record of No. 1. Sure enough, the prompt was "Calling the Masterless Incense Faith 20 Points"!

"The masterless? How could it be? Isn't this the statue of Sunlight Bodhisattva? How could it be the masterless? Could it be..." His heart moved, and in order to verify his thoughts, he went back to the main hall of the main hall.

The temple Zhu Zheng secretly complained in his heart. When he saw him coming back again, he thought he had his understanding of his heart, and his face turned pale immediately. Duan Minghui ignored him and went straight to the statue of the Dragon Subduing Arhat.

"Boss of Dragon Surrender, don't blame me, I'll take a little." He smiled and prayed in his heart, started No. 1, and absorbed a little incense and faith from the statue.

"Ding Dong, collect 25 points for the Masterless Incense Faith." No. 1 reminded.

"I accidentally took too many things. But brother, you believe in so much incense, so I must not mind taking this little, right? Hehe——" He laughed and almost jumped away from the Main Hall. He left the confused temple with a look of confusion. I wonder why he, the "expert", suddenly became a lunatic.

"Is it because the Buddha saw that he was disrespectful to the Buddha and punished him with all his might? Well, that must be the case!" Miao Zhu said firmly, and his fear and anxiety disappeared in his heart. He continued to calculate the income from the indulgence and oil in the merit box today with peace of mind.
