Chapter 61: Each Has Its Own Plans, Eight Heavenly Dragons!
Looking at the door of light that suddenly appeared in front of them, everyone was shocked and couldn't help themselves. Who would have thought that the entrance to the next level would be like this, this is really incredible.
Everyone stood in front of the light gate, and they were a little flustered for a while.
Qi Qi looked at it, and immediately said impatiently: "What are you still doing in a daze?" After a while, the light door will disappear, and if you want to open it again, it will be at least seven days later! ”
Qing Ming approached Tong Yan and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Tong, aren't we here to get rid of the evil in this ancient tomb?" Do you want to do it now and kill this poor stranger? ”
Hearing this, Tong Yan shook his head and refused: "Doing it now is tantamount to a self-defeating retreat." If we want to get out of the tomb, I'm afraid we'll have to let it help. It's never too late to do it when you get back! ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Don't delay, everyone, enter the door!" ”
As soon as his words fell, everyone hurriedly jumped into the light gate.
The last person to enter was Qing Ming, and before entering the door, he deliberately threw the bronze mirror to Qi Qi, which can be regarded as keeping his word.
After everyone jumped in, the light gate disappeared so magically, as if it had never appeared.
The old Taoist ghost looked at the disappearing light gate, turned his head to look at Qi Qi and said, "Really let them go like this?" There are descendants of the dragon clan and the unicorn clan in there. ”
Hearing this, Qi Qi sneered and said, "Don't worry, now is not the time to do it." With the nine-tailed demon fox by their side, I don't have the slightest chance of winning. Just wait for the guys in the next three levels to help me entangle the nine-tailed demon fox, and then it will be my best chance to make a move! ”
The old Taoist priest laughed and said, "You are still smart, this scene is over." Look back at that boy's eyes, you have to give them to me. ”
Qi Qi nodded and smiled: "This is nature, am I a person of no faith?" Hehe......"
"Hey......
……
Let's say that Tong Yan and the others stepped into the light gate, only to feel that it was dark in front of them, and then their bodies fell uncontrollably and quickly. Fortunately, Ruthless and Tong Hu noticed it in time, and finally caught Tong Yan before he landed, otherwise this fall might have hurt him.
Although Tong Yan fell to the ground smoothly with the help of ruthlessness and Tong Hu. But others didn't have such good luck, and the person who fell the worst was Zhang Xiaobao. There's no way, who calls his cultivation the weakest.
After everyone landed safely, they immediately raised their flashlights and shone them around. Unexpectedly, after this check, everyone was stunned again.
This is a huge grotto, and in the grotto there are eight stone statues of different appearances. As for the place where they first came and fell, it turned out to be a broken wall, roughly speaking, it must be at least 100 meters high.
Fortunately, everyone is extraordinary, otherwise, the height of 100 meters alone is enough to smash people into pulp.
In front of these eight statues is a brazier, which I don't understand the purpose, but it is necessary to illuminate it.
Tong Yan turned his head to Ruthless and said, "Ruthless, light those braziers, I can take a closer look here!" As he spoke, he took out a very delicate lighter from his pocket and handed it to Ruthless.
Seeing this, Ruthless hurriedly reached out and took it, and then lit all the braziers in turn. Only after the brazier is completely burned will the place be considered bright.
Tong Yan looked at the eight stone statues intently, and suddenly his heart trembled, and then he said, "This is ...... Eight Tenryu? How could there be this in an ancient tomb? ”
Qing Ming was stunned when he heard this, and then said puzzledly: "What eight heavenly dragons?" What the hell is it? ”
Hearing this, Tong Yan opened his mouth to explain: "The Eight Heavenly Dragons, also known as the Eight Heavenly Dragons, the Eight Dragons of the Eight Gods, and the Eight Divisions, these terms come from Buddhist scriptures. When many Mahayana sutras narrate the Buddha's teachings to the bodhisattvas and monks, the eight divisions of the Heavenly Dragon often participate in listening to the Dharma. The Eight Heavenly Dragons include eight Shinto monsters, and because the Celestial Beings and the Dragons are the most important, they are called the Eight Heavenly Dragons. The Eight Divisions, the One Day Crowd, the Two Naga Beings, the Three Nakshatas, the Four Gandhavas, the Five Asuras, the Six Garudas, the Seven Kinaras, and the Eight Makhulakas. These eight heavenly dragons are very common Buddhist protectors, but I didn't expect that their stone statues would appear in this ancient tomb, which is really a bit strange. ”
Hearing this, Qing Ming smiled and said, "What's this, maybe there is a Buddha statue here." Didn't I remember that Buddhism was not prevalent in the Tang Dynasty? Maybe the owner of this tomb is a person who believes in Buddhism, so after his death, he built a few Buddha statues and these protector gods in his tomb. Isn't that the reason, you say? ”
What Qing Ming said was not unreasonable, but Tong Yan always felt that things were not so simple, maybe he was too careful, or he was thinking too much. But no matter what, finding the entrance to the next level is the first thing to consider.
Tong Yan patted Tong Hu under him, and then said, "Brother Tiger, take me forward a little, I think the entrance to the next level should be among these eight stone statues." The sooner we find it, the sooner we can move on to the next level. ”
When Tong Hu heard this, he did not hesitate, and hurriedly carried Tong Yan forward quickly.
These eight stone statues are semi-enclosed, and Tong Yan came to the center with the help of Tong Hu, and immediately became the center of the eight stone statues. Being stared at by these eight lifelike stone statues, Tong Yan was really a little uncomfortable.
He looked around the eight statues and finally set his eyes on the third. This stone statue is carved with the Yaksha, the third of the eight dracons, and the only one of the eight draconian protectors. The reason why it is said to be special is because before it became the protector god, it was not a human, nor a demon, nor a god, but a ghost.
Among the beings of the Six Realms, ghosts are the lowest status category. And the reason why Buddhism chose Yaksha as the protector of the Dharma is not to reflect the theory of the equality of all living beings of the Buddha.
At the end of the day, the Yaksha itself is a quick ghost, also known as a violent ghost, and there are two types of good and evil: the one who loves to eat people is the evil Yaksha, and the one who supports the Dharma is the good Yaksha. It is precisely because there are two types of good and evil that the Yaksha is often the most feared of the eight heavenly dragons.
And the reason why Tong Yan locked his eyes on this Yaksha stone statue was because the eyes of the Yaksha in front of him were too vicious, and he seemed to feel a strong killing intent, which made him feel chills in his heart.
Tong Yan stared at it for a while, and suddenly felt that his eyes were a little tired, so he reached out and gently softened his eyelids a few times.
I never thought that at this moment, the Yaksha stone statue that had been watched by Tong Yan before seemed to be alive, not only the corners of its mouth rose slightly, but a pair of eyes shot a terrifying fierce light.
And what's even more incredible is that Tong Hu, Ruthless and the girl's eyes slowly turned red......
What the hell happened to them? Could it be......
