Master Hongjing came out from inside, with a slight smile on his face, and asked: "The pagoda has been completed, and the merits of King Hanxing are immeasurable, I don't know what I want about this pagoda?" ”

Wang Baoyu nodded and said lazily: "Yes, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are all together, and it is quite lively." It's okay to have a meeting, rub mahjong or something. ”

Hongjing raised his eyes and looked at Wang Baoyu, and sneered: "Although there are many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they can't get rid of the obsessed and unenlightened people in this world, and they can't wash away this boundless sin." ”

Wang Baoyu waved his hand impatiently, knowing that he couldn't talk about these people. Hongjing handed Wang Baoyu three sticks of incense, which was the smell of agarwood, Wang Baoyu prayed devoutly, and then inserted the three sticks of incense into the silver-gilt hollow Ruiniao incense burner.

The smile on the Buddha's face and the depth of the agarwood made Wang Baoyu feel a lot calmer, and Master Hongjing beckoned: "King Hanxing, please come with me!" ”

Wang Baoyu followed Master Hongjing up the steps slowly, only to see that the second floor of the Futu Pagoda was empty, there was no Buddha statue, and outside the open window, there were birds flashing from time to time, or staying on the tower, or chirping in a low voice, all of which made this place full of spirituality.

When he saw the eighteen paintings hanging in the tower, all of which were shocking pictures such as going down to the oil pot, going up the knife mountain, cutting out the liver and digging out the lungs, Wang Baoyu couldn't help but be stunned.

"Master Hongjing, what does this mean?" Wang Baoyu asked suspiciously.

"This is the scene of the eighteenth layer of hell, the world is obsessed, and the reincarnation of heaven is ruthless." Master Hongjing said.

"The peasant woman was also punished for eating an egg?" Wang Baoyu pointed to a painting and asked incomprehensibly.

"Because they have evil in their hearts."

Wang Baoyu looked around, didn't ask more, and continued to go up with the mage, the general layout of the third layer is similar to that of the second floor, except that there is a circular stone carved pot in the middle of the open space, and there is pure water in the middle, and there are several wood-carved lotus flowers inside.

"There is a Buddha in my heart, and the nine-pin lotus opens." Hongjing explained.

"It's very creative." Wang Baoyu nodded and praised.

On the next three floors, Master Hongjing did not stop, but took Wang Baoyu to the seventh floor at the top, there was a sign of Do Not Disturb, and after walking in, there were only two sandalwood tables and two futons, and a red cloth was hanging on the opposite side.

"King Hanxing, please take a seat." Master Hongjing said, handing over a cup of fragrant tea.

"Mage, you asked me to visit, but I didn't see anything?" Wang Baoyu was a little regretful.

Master Hongjing was sitting precariously, smiled slightly, and said, "This red cloth is waiting for King Hanxing to unveil it!" ”

"What's in there? Shadow puppetry or puppetry? Wang Baoyu was still sitting still, the second brother had fallen, and he was really in no mood for entertainment.

The reason why I can come today is also to look forward to answering questions and solving doubts at the gods, but I am sick, but Hongjing is extravagant, and it is mysterious, very boring, Wang Baoyu thought it was just a modern opening ceremony, everything was ready, just waiting for the leader to touch the crystal ball, bowed his head and said: "Master, see that you are a master with few desires, let's not come to these clichés, whoever opens is the same." ”

"King Hanxing is depressed, this red cloth, only if you open it yourself, can you untie the knot!"

"Oh, that's amazing!"

"Just because you and my old friend are here!" Master Hongjing said slowly, and recited a poem in his mouth: "After 30 years of brave fighting, my heart is like a mirror. Shenwei is elegant and eternal, and the ripe wheat seeds are cold in winter. ”

Wang Baoyu just took a sip of tea, and as soon as he heard this poem, he immediately put down the cup and asked in astonishment: "How do you know this poem?" ”

"This is exactly the poem that Lao Ga gave to General Yun Chang, Lao Ga was originally the elder of Zhenguo Temple, and the Dharma name was Pujing." Master Hongjing said.

"So, you're here for Second Brother Guan?"

"Exactly, the seventh-level Futu Tower was also built for him." Master Pujing nodded.

"Mage! What a slack! Wang Baoyu hurriedly got up and handed over his hand, and then couldn't wait to open the red cloth, but to his disappointment, there was no Guan Yu who came back from the dead, but three life-size statues, which were Guan Yu, Guan Ping and Zhou Cang.

Guan Yu is dressed in a green robe, brushing his beard in his hand, and holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in one hand. Guan Ping on the left, heroic, looking into the distance; Zhou Cang on the right, bowed slightly, his eyes firm.

The statue is vivid, no matter how Wang Baoyu looks at it, he feels that Guan Yu can come back to life at any time, tears fell down at once, bowed a few times, and looked at it in a daze for a long time.

After a long time, Wang Baoyu sighed, turned around and said to Master Pujing, "Thank you Master for being so thoughtful. ”

"I'm a friend of General Guan and even a friend, that's how it should be." Master Pujing smiled.

"Alas, the people are gone, and this statue can only be worshipped." Wang Baoyu wiped away a handful of tears and asked regretfully: "Master, please forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, since you foresee that there is a day and you are friends with your second brother, why don't you help?" ”

"Heaven is clear, the cycle of cause and effect, if Guan Yu is saved, who should rescue Yan Liang, Pang De and other thousands of dead soldiers? King Hanxing knew the cause and effect well, didn't he fail to rescue Yun Chang? Master Pujing asked rhetorically.

"But I did my best!"

"The ending is the same."

This, Wang Baoyu choked, beat his chest and said: "Selfishly, I can ignore others, but the second brother is righteous to me, not to mention that he saved my life before he died, when I think of this, I feel uncomfortable." ”

"King Hanxing should not be sad, today's Guan Yu has taken refuge in Buddhism, all obstacles have disappeared, there is no life and no destruction, good and good!" Pujing said inexplicably.

"What do you mean by that?"

"The souls of all three are in the Buddhist shrine in the back."

Wang Baoyu looked in the direction of Pujing's finger, and sure enough, he saw a small Buddha shrine behind the three of them.

"Haha, I finally get it! When the Venerable Purple Void comes, I will definitely ask him for help to regenerate Second Brother Guan. Mage, Baoyu admires! Wang Baoyu finally laughed.

"Don't do that!" Pujing stopped, "If Yun Chang is reborn, the world will be in chaos. ”

"If you care so much, it's messy!"

"King Hanxing, listen to me, if Guan Yu is still there, how can he achieve the heroic name of righteousness? And how will it be supported by future generations? Pu Jing persuaded, obviously he had regretted it, and he shouldn't let Wang Baoyu know about this qiē.

Wang Baoyu was silent, Master Pujing said very reasonably, how can Second Brother Guan be an ordinary person, others don't know, but he knows it clearly, the good men and women who worship Guan Yu in later generations are only afraid of tens of millions.

"Master, I admit that your words are very reasonable, but since God has let me know that the second brother can be reborn, maybe it is a hint, I must try against the sky!" After contemplation, Wang Baoyu said slowly.

Wang Baoyu's attitude was resolute, and Master Pujing sighed slightly, and suddenly shouted: "Yun Chang, sue sù Baoyu, don't act rashly!" ”
