"Go back to the village first and don't run around." Wei Yuan told the girl.
"What about you?"
"I'll go to the mountain to take a look and I'll be back soon."
The girl said angrily: "You think I'm a burden!"
Wei Yuan didn't say anything and acquiesced. But the girl was stubborn and refused to leave no matter what. Wei Yuan had no choice but to untie the rope hanging from his waist and walked towards the girl.
"What are you going to do?!" The girl exclaimed halfway and then covered her mouth.
Wei Yuan took action without hesitation, tightly bound the burden on her chest, and said, "That's it. We have to run faster and get back before breakfast."
The two of them ran along the mountain road towards the back mountain, and this time it turned out to be much smoother. There were many traps set by the hunter along the way, but fortunately they were all marked clearly, so the two of them would not step on them.
"What are you doing in the back mountain?" the girl asked out of breath.
"It's high there. Let me look at the surrounding terrain."
"Haven't we been watching it for more than ten years? Is there anything good to see?"
Wei Yuan knew that he had been watching for more than ten years and should be quite familiar with the surroundings of the village. But he didn't know why, but he just felt uneasy and had to take a look for himself. In the past, before every battle, he would personally survey the terrain.
of.
War? Wei Yuan felt that it should be an innate part of him, even though there had never been a war in the village.
Wei Yuan ignored the girl's struggles and protests along the way. Since he was following him, he had to go to the end. If the girl refused to leave, Wei Yuan simply carried her away. After carrying her for a while, he found it inconvenient, so he simply carried her on his shoulders.
Now I can finally run forward.
The girl was furious and kept twisting and struggling. Wei Yuan suddenly became impatient and slapped her hard on the butt, telling her to calm down immediately.
Now Wei Yuan was focused on nothing else, just wanting to see the terrain. He felt that his mind was inexplicably simple, that he was a simple farm boy, just like he was three years ago.
Without the drag of the girl, Wei Yuan moved much faster and ran all the way to the top of the back mountain.
The top of the mountain is a piece of rock, relatively flat, and you can see the mountain peak on the other side. The distance between the two peaks is only a few dozen feet, so close that you can jump over it with a single leap.
However, there was a cliff in front of Wei Yuan's feet. He looked down and saw that there was no bottom. The bottom of the cliff was filled with mist, and he couldn't see what was underneath.
The sun has completely risen into the sky. It is very big and dark red in color, painting the whole world with the color of the setting sun. The peaks of the mountains are all dyed red, but the corners in the mountains where the sun cannot reach are dark.
I couldn't see clearly what was on the dark ground.
Standing on the top of the mountain, you can clearly see the village. The small village is not big and is built on the hillside. On the other side is a plain with some fields opened up. There is a forest further away, and there is a heavy fog in the forest, so you can't see further.
.
Wei Yuan estimated the distance. Standing at a high place, the weather was good, but he could only see a hundred miles away. There was fog all over the distance, so he had no way of knowing what was behind.
At this time, smoke was everywhere in the small village.
"It's time to go back. If you miss breakfast, you will be scolded." The girl said.
"Okay." Wei Yuan was about to go down the mountain when he suddenly saw a huge door appearing in the sky above his head!
The door was completely black, with a mysterious symbol on top, so big that it reached the sky. The door was closed tightly, and you couldn't see what was behind it.
Wei Yuan was shocked, pointed to the door and asked: "There is a door in the sky, have you seen it?"
The girl looked in the direction of his finger, and then said: "The master said that that is the door to the Pure Land Spiritual Mountain. As long as you worship the Buddha with devotion, anyone can see it. But why did the door change color today and was closed?
Already."
"What's it like at ordinary times?" Wei Yuan asked.
The girl said a little strangely: "Haven't you seen it before? No wonder the Master always said that there are people in the village who are not pious enough and cannot listen to the Dharma. It turns out that he is talking about you!"
However, the girl did not expose Wei Yuan's thoughts and said: "The door used to be golden, and it was always open, with seven-color glazed light inside. Remember it, don't tell the mage when he asks."
"Master is the most compassionate and will not punish me." Wei Yuan didn't know why he said this.
"But the village chief knows. It hurts when he hits someone."
The two of them went back to the village from the mountain and went home respectively. When Wei Yuan entered the house, his adoptive father had already finished eating and left breakfast on the table. Breakfast was porridge, half a steamed bun and a pickle. This was considered rich, Yi
My father probably only drank a bowl of gruel.
The adoptive father said: "Eat quickly, we have to go to work in the fields after eating."
Wei Yuan cleaned up the food three times, but to be honest, he felt that his stomach was not even full. A rare feeling of hunger filled his body, making him subconsciously look at a strip of bacon hanging on the kitchen beam.
The adoptive father knocked Wei Yuan hard on the head and said, "What are you thinking about? That is meat to be offered to the Buddha, how dare you think about it?"
Only then did Wei Yuan remember that in the past, most of the delicious food in the village, such as bacon, eggs, etc., would be offered to the temple to seek blessings from the Buddha. The more you offer, the more pious you are. All the offerings have entrance and exit.
It seems that Buddha really knows how to eat.
Until she grew up, one day the girl quietly told Wei Yuan that she saw the Master eating the offerings.
But there was no basis for this. The Master always treated everyone well, so Wei Yuan, who was confused at that time, quickly forgot about it.
Just after breakfast, there was suddenly a noise outside the house, and an aunt shouted in a crying voice: "Why is the door of the Pure Land closed? Who on earth is responsible for this evil?!"
After hearing this, the adoptive father ran to the window and took a look, and his expression immediately changed.
More and more people in the village gathered, looking to the sky. That door and that glaze light were the motivation for everyone to worship the Buddha, and it was also everyone's hope. Blessings in the next life were right in front of them, but it suddenly closed.
"Go to the temple and ask the mage." Someone suggested, and many people agreed.
So the whole village gathered outside the small temple.
The young mage walked out of the temple and looked at the people gathered. For some reason, Wei Yuan saw a strange compassion on his face, and at the same time a kind of determination. At this time, the mage's body glowed slightly, like a monk who had achieved enlightenment.
.
At this time, the light in the temple became a bit dazzling. Wei Yuan looked up and saw those golden lights in the sky approaching quickly. He felt faintly uneasy in his heart.
The Master sighed and said, "It's obviously enough to satisfy your hunger, so why bother to be greedy and kill indiscriminately?"
Wei Yuan followed the mage's gaze and saw Uncle Orion, but the uncle was still carrying the hunting fork, and the white wolf was still hanging on the hunting fork, and the wolf was still dripping with blood.
Wei Yuan was not surprised. In the past, Uncle Sankui would get lost when he caught rare prey. He would have to walk back and forth in the village until noon to find his home.
Seeing the mage looking at him, Sankui didn't care at all. He threw the white wolf in the open space in front of the temple and said confidently: "This beast has injured several people and many livestock in the village. If I don't kill it, will it continue to harm the village?"
"
With two bangs, he threw out a badger and a fat rabbit, and said: "These two are the ones who want to eat meat. Since the Master thinks I am wrong, then just worship them. But I am not wrong!"
Sankui said the last sentence very eloquently.
The Master pronounced the Buddha's name and sighed: "You are not wrong, I am not wrong, we are not wrong..."
The mage's words were suddenly interrupted by a thunderclap, and an earth-shattering roar sounded from the clouds: "Who killed our king's only son?"
Under the bloody sunshine, the three corpses on the open space in the temple suddenly turned into humans.
Chapter completed!
