03 The Story of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?
This was the giant in the underworld back then. It was the same status as Meng Po in Naiheqiao. He was awesome boss! Why is he here?
Didn't you fall back then?
He Yunmu wanted to ask something, but when he looked up, he saw a group of ghost messengers. He quickly lowered his head and hid among the walking ghost group.
The ghost officer did not notice He Yunmu's strangeness. He followed the black-cloaked female ghost and walked into the alley. After walking for a long time, he encountered various ghosts along the way.
What are the starving ghosts, the long-tongued ghosts, the water ghosts, the fried ghosts, the hanged ghosts, etc.? Fortunately, my heart is strong, otherwise He Yunmu would have felt that he would have been scared to death long ago.
However, he thought he was going to some dangerous place, but He Yunmu had made all preparations, but he didn't expect to stop in front of a pure black building.
To be honest, in this gray city, such bright black is still eye-catching.
This seems to be a temple, but it is a bit dilapidated, as if it has not been repaired for a long time.
There is an animal lying like a watchdog in front of the temple gate, but when you look closely, it is not.
"This is the temple of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. I can't enter until I have any special moments. I'm waiting for you outside."
The black cape female ghost explained coldly.
Black temple? The temple of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?
Although He Yunmu was extremely vigilant, he was now at the point where he could not enter the tiger's den. He had to try it out. Can he leave here?
As for danger, isn't that normal?
Turning his head to look at the female ghost, He Yunmu nodded, holding a brush in his hand and approaching the black temple. The brush in his hand was his last reliance.
It seemed that he felt someone coming. The inexplicable beast in the door looked up at He Yunmu, and there seemed to be a look of confusion in his eyes, and then turned around and ran into the temple.
The entrance of the temple was open, and He Yunmu stepped in carefully. He saw a broken stone Buddha, with only half of the stone Buddha left, and the other half shattered aside.
In front of the stone Buddha, a monk wearing a black monk's robe faced He Yunmu, looking at him with a plain expression, as if waiting for him. The strange beast that had just entered was squatting aside.
"I have seen Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
There was only one person in the temple, obviously he was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and He Yunmu bowed respectfully and said.
"I thought I couldn't wait, but I didn't expect that I could still wait."
The voice of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is very stable, giving people the feeling of Mount Tai falling before him without panic.
He Yunmu felt that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva seemed to be saying that he had been waiting for a long time, for incredible things.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
Just as He Yunmu was thinking about how to speak, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva asked first.
"Uh...I want to leave here and go back to the earth."
"Tonight is the day of the dark night in the underworld, which is the Zhongyuan Festival. This dark Chang'an corresponds to the virtual reality of the earth. You can enter the earth. On the day of the dark night, the earth's real world will be underworld control."
That's so simple? It shouldn't be!
Sure enough, before He Yunmu could raise this question, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva continued: "And all ghosts still need to return to the Abyss Ghost Realm. Unless you avoid the pursuit of the Ghost Realm messengers, and if you return to the human world, you cannot come back. You cannot exist in the earth as a ghost."
"I would also like to ask Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to make a clear statement."
He Yunmu, who listened patiently, knew that an important turning point was coming, so he saw Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva telling him what to do.
The Buddhist beads in Ksitigarbha's hand kept turning, and He Yunmu felt a little dazed, because he seemed to see the body of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva flashing.
"There is a temple in Chang'an City called Dacien Temple. There is something in it. If you eat it, you can reshape the human body and escape from the ghost body."
Dacien Temple? Isn’t this the temple where Tang Sanzang came back to receive the scriptures and released the scriptures? But there are still divine objects to eat here?
Speaking of this, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva stared at He Yunmu with his eyes, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"That thing may be the Buddha flesh of Tang Sanzang, or the golden cicada shell left by his golden cicada son in his lifetime."
He Yunmu:???(???????_???)??????????????
Tang Sanzang’s meat! What a joke! Eat human flesh! I can’t do this!
"Amitabha, what should be done is to say, it all depends on your luck."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva bowed and bowed back.
In the black temple, He Yunmu also replied, "Bodhisattva, you can tell me what you need me to do."
There is no free lunch in this world. It is definitely a price for others to help you. Obviously, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will not help him so easily.
Sure enough, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said again and replied: "I need you to help me take Di Ting back to the earth. If you take Di Ting away, your enemies will increase. As an additional condition, I will tell you where this is and how you will return to your former world."
If He Yunmu was still calm when he heard Diting the name of this divine beast, but his last sentence made him completely unable to calm down, he really wanted to go back.
"You know how I got here? How do you know how to get back?"
He Yunmu's voice trembled extremely, and his lips moved slightly.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva sighed and a low and steady voice sounded again.
"In this world, several gods collided, and various heavenly ways were fighting, countless gods fell, and the whole river of heaven and earth fell into chaos. If this continues, the ultimate great way will be unstable."
"The dispute between heaven is determined by heaven, but in such chaos, the great way cannot tolerate it! So the great way takes action and turns all this dispute into a game... that is, the game you mentioned."
"In this, countless strange people from the world came here to complete the integration of the chaotic era and select the true Supreme God Lord."
He Yunmu understood and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva told him that the formation of this game turned out that this system was the way of control of the various heavenly paths, and players promoted the fusion of the era, and the so-called Yi Ren was the player.
"In this world, the long river of history has been broken, and the whole world has been broken, of course, besides the realm of existence. Here you can see countless scenes in the long river of history. When you walk between heaven and earth, you also need to pay attention to the cracks in time and space, and you may be trapped in forbidden areas and cannot get out of it."
"You will know slowly. Everything needs to be familiar with by yourself and you also need to choose."
He Yunmu understood the meaning of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, which means that he would encounter various things that have happened in the long river of time, such as the bloody battle in the Tianhe River, such as the Xuanwu Gate coup in Chang'an, the former Monkey King Sun Wukong's riot in the Heavenly Palace, etc.
However, in the last sentence, He Yunmu did not understand what his choice meant?
Perhaps feeling He Yunmu's thoughts, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva looked at him with an inexplicable look and said slowly: "If one day you meet a fighting Buddha and a King of Ten Thousand Demons, who would you help?"
this……
He Yunmu took a breath of air conditioning. It seemed that things were far from as simple as he thought. The long river of time seemed to be broken too much.
"It's been too long since time passed, and it's so long that some gods have completely fallen. Some are still sealing, some are rising, and some have lost their memory. When the great way merges with several heavenly ways, only the numbers are not affected. I am one of them."
"Each way of heaven is also pushing its own creatures to devour each other, and knowing that there are not many of these existences, and some things that have happened in the long river of time are also being changed, waiting for someone to repair them."
This means that some gods or strong people have forgotten their identity or status? And some historical plots have changed?
"The Avenue needs more energy to maintain the duration of this epoch game, so even these strange people who come in can't leave here."
"The Great Dao did not want to continue the chaos here, so he summoned other people from the stable heavenly way to appear, and you are one of them. This is why you came here."
Speaking of this, the expression of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is extremely impressive.
"You have the innate God-Master's luck, and in the future you may get all kinds of luck that others cannot get. Some of them can have it for life if you complete a specific task."
"If you want to leave here, you must complete the mission of the Gods, stabilize the world and end the chaos, otherwise you will never go back."
"If you want to complete the Conquest of the Gods, you can be strong in your own strength or build your own power. If it is the latter, the fragments of the Heavenly Court can help you."
The words of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made He Yunmu shake his head. After he traveled over, he obtained the innate fortune of a time traveler. This fortune only has one ability, that is, the birth of other fortunes, which is the so-called life-long everything.
Luck is an important attribute in this game world. Such a golden finger is simply great, but he doesn't want these. He wants to know why he came here by himself?
"Why did I come here? Why did you tell me this?"
He Yunmu's words became a little strong, and it seemed very uncomfortable. If it were anyone, it would be uncomfortable! He jumped into an umbrella and traveled through time for no reason! What's going on!
"I don't know why you chose it."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's expression was very calm and seemed to have not deceived him.
"Why did I tell you? It's because I used all my Buddha power to calculate one thing, that is, the only person in your world who understands the entire East's long river of time, and is the person who is the most capable of completing the deity of God."
"I chose to bet on you, and it all comes at a price."
cost?
Before He Yunmu could say anything, his eyes became a little shocked because the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in front of him was dissipating!
That's right, the body of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is dissipating in the air, and the stone Buddha behind him is also weathering bit by bit.
Di Ting, who was standing beside him, was wailing constantly, full of reluctance.
"Child, this is your destiny, this is my destiny. Use your ability to save yourself and save this world. I wish you goodbye to have the fate, Amitabha, please."
This is the last sentence left by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
