Chapter 9 Jianzhen Monk
Chapter 9: The Monk of Jianzhen
A.D. 7o3, Yangzhou Jiangyang, Daming Temple. (Yangzhou in the Tang Dynasty was vast and included several provinces today, so it was close to the sea.) )
"Jianzhen, go to Lin Bo's house by the sea and give him this 'Buddha seal scarf'. A middle-aged monk walked out of the temple gate and said to a young monk who was sweeping the floor outside the door. "Yes, Uncle Zhirong. The little monk Jianzhen replied respectfully, he put down the broom, took the "Buddha seal scarf", and ran away from the monastery.
"Buddha seal scarf" is actually a yellow silk scarf printed with the word "swastika" mark of Buddhism, it is an object that people worship at home to ward off evil spirits, Buddhism flourished in the Tang Dynasty, this household item is also very popular, it is a major source of income for the temple. Jianzhen ran to Lin Bo's house by the sea, and after giving him the "Buddha Seal Towel", he picked up conch on the beach by the way, wanting to pick some suitable snails.
Jian Zhen searched around on the beach, and suddenly there was a white object on the beach in the distance, he was very curious, and hurriedly ran to check, and when he got closer, it turned out to be a small snake with a silver and white body, more than two feet long, and purple and gold stripes on its back, with scars on its body, it looked very badly injured, his eyes were blank, and he was lying on the beach and twitching from time to time, and it was very painful.
Jianzhen is kind by nature, and he is a person who cultivates Buddhism, and he is deeply compassionate to Buddhism, and he sees that this little snake is cute on the outside, and he is even more pity in his heart, so he didn't hesitate much, so he gently picked up the little snake, carefully put it in his arms, and walked slowly towards the temple, he was ready to treat this little snake.
After returning to the monastery, Jianzhen applied the wound on the little snake's body with medicine to treat external injuries, fed it some water, and was afraid that the little snake would freeze, so he even put it in his arms for evening classes.
At night, Jianzhen was meditating and participating in meditation, and suddenly felt a cold neck, and then he was out of breath, as his neck was strangled more and more tightly, Jianzhen's eyes became more and more blurred, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart: "Buddha, it seems that the disciple is going to go to the Elysium to pay respects to you this time." Then it went dark, and I didn't know anything.
I don't know how long it took, Jianzhen slowly woke up, "I'm still alive?" he pinched his thigh, it really hurt, not a dream. Jian was really puzzled that he was attacked inexplicably, and suddenly there was something moving on the ground in front of him, and when he looked at it by candlelight, it turned out to be the little snake that he picked up on the beach during the day, and suddenly realized.
It turned out that after the little snake woke up, it was now in the arms of the person, and reflexively used the snake's self-defense action to wrap around Jianzhen's neck, but after all, the injury was not healed, so Jianzhen was not strangled to death, as for why it didn't continue to hurt itself later, probably because he was its savior, Jianzhen comforted himself so much.
Jianzhen came back to his senses, and then began to look at the little snake seriously, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this little snake was cute, and very aura, those eyes were very deep and spiritual, as if they contained countless secrets, very attractive, Jianzhen even forgot that he was almost strangled to death just now, and even stretched out his right hand to the little snake, and said: "Snake, you and I are destined to meet each other, are you willing to be friends with me?"
I didn't want to hit the little snake as if I could really understand what he said, so I nodded, crawled into Jianzhen's hand along my fingers, coiled into a small ball, and kept shaking my head at him, as if I was happy.
Jianzhen didn't expect the little snake to be so spiritual, he was stunned, and then he was overjoyed, and now he will have a companion in his life from now on.
Why is this little snake so spiritual? Because it is the sea of clouds!
As for why Yuncanghai appeared on the beach in the form of a wounded snake, it has to start from after it entered the deep sea.
The sea is the place where natural life first arises, and in this water, which accounts for seven-eight tenths of the earth, there are countless lives and miracles. There are many species in the ocean, which is thousands of times that of the 6 earth, the aura of heaven and earth is sufficient, pure, and the food is sufficient, coupled with the strong vitality of marine life, so there are many creatures that are proficient in spirits.
The ocean area is vast, the ability to resist destruction is strong, and it has not been damaged by Yan zhòng after many wars in ancient times, and it has also attracted a lot of strange hermits and trolls and true immortals, who have opened up caves on islands or seabeds in the sea, and passed down the Taoist system; Immortal beasts have descendants to breed in the sea, after hundreds of millions of years of hybridization, and I don't know how many strange varieties have been born, and their abilities are also diverse, making people unguardable.
The enemy that Yun Canghai encountered this time was a demonic tiger shark and a cold cuttlefish, originally in terms of strength, Yun Canghai was a head taller than them, but when Yun Canghai was dying of packing up the two beasts, and was thinking about whether to take them as his subordinates or absorb essence blood to increase cultivation, there was an accident.
Although the Demon Tiger Shark and the Cold Water Cuttlefish are not considered to be the top fierce beasts in this vast sea, they are also the characters who have been used to being domineering in this sea area for many years, and they have never been educated, and they are extremely murderous and tyrannical, and today they were defeated by a small snake whose size can only be regarded as a "loach" compared to them, although this little snake is powerful and has a variety of moves (Yun Canghai uses them to practice tricks), but it is also a great shame, and the desperate heart is together, regardless of the use of a secret method to detonate the demon pill of his life.
Originally, as long as Yun Canghai paid attention to observation, it could also avoid it, but after all, it had no actual combat experience, and it didn't expect that the two monsters here could explode themselves after being banned by it, and they were affected by the explosion without imposing defensive measures for themselves, so they suffered a big loss, this is the self-explosion of the inner pill of two high-level monsters, and the power is equivalent to a blow from the master of the Returning to the Void Period, how terrifying! Yun Canghai was blown up and lost a large amount of body protection true yuan, and also lost consciousness.
Fortunately, it is transformed by a magic weapon, the body is strong, and the body has the blood of the dragon clan, and the recovery is amazing, so the body quickly repairs the damaged part by itself (the wounds outside the body are only skin wounds, not within the scope of automatic repair), but its own true element is consumed excessively, so the body size is reduced, and the appearance of ordinary snakes enters a dormant state to accumulate true yuan.
The original overlord of this sea area is the demonic tiger shark and the cold water cuttlefish, and other creatures with less strength have been defeated and expelled, so Yuncanghai has not been threatened by other threats, and its luck is also very good, it was actually washed up on the beach by the waves, and it happened to be picked up by Jianzhen who passed by, and although Jianzhen has also practiced Buddhism, but his cultivation is still shallow, and the demonic energy in his body has not appeared.
