Chapter 226 Daocheng Temple Bell

"I don't know that there are many temples and shrines near here. Who knows where they came from?" The middle-aged man shook his head and walked away. Alas, this world..."

Zhang Fan thought for a moment, left here, and asked some villagers about the temple nearby along the way. Which one was the largest? Villagers all refer to the largest Flying Bird Temple more than ten miles away.

Zhang Fan didn't say a word. He drove to this temple and saw that this temple had a good incense, mainly dedicated to an ancient flying bird Buddha. The monks inside also seem to be practicing, so it is unlikely to force people to be monks, right? There can't be monsters in such a place. And it seems to be out of Kyoto.

Sure enough, after learning about it, there are indeed no villagers who came to ask for a monk. Even if you are a monk, you can't forget your family. However, when an old monk saw Zhang Fan asking about this, he pointed out that it might be a monster's chaos. He had heard of this kind of thing when he was young, but it was a legend a long time ago.

Therefore, it is recommended that Zhang Fan go to the remote temple on the back of the mountain. This kind of monster generally haunts in places where there is no one's shadow, and there may be harvest in places with heavy yin.

Zhang Fan thanked, informed Aken, and drove Willis into the mountain.

There are many ancient temples and shrines in Japan. Almost every rural town has temples and shrines of different sizes. Some of them are just like the land temples in rural China, which are a roadside shrine dedicated to a statue.

Zhang Fan had no way to identify monsters, so he had to inquire all the way. Every remote shrine went in to investigate, and he didn't even find a ghost on this day.

He was discouraged, but he got a letter from Aken and asked Zhang Fan to give him Willis and say that he would come and meet Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan was overjoyed when he heard that he had this ghost to host, so he would save himself from bumping around. So he put Willis into the public space and walked forward by himself.

In a blink of an eye, it was getting late. Zhang Fan saw that there were no hotels in the mountain, only a broken temple, so he told Aken his location and prepared to spend the night in the temple.

It was also Zhang Fan's bad luck. When he came to the temple, he saw that there seemed to be several words called 'Daocheng Temple' on the mountain gate, and there was no doubt about him. Then he stepped in with one foot. The temple looked dilapidate outside, and the inside was still clean. Two monks cleaned the courtyard, the small main hall, and several monks chanted scriptures and recited Buddha. A peaceful group.

Zhang Fan was happy to see the temple. He patted his clothes, straightened his helmet, and walked into the hall. The hall is not big. There is a Buddha sitting on the front, which is full of ancient meaning. There is a big wooden fish on the big table on the right hand, but there is a tall bell on the left hand. Good boy, this bell will not look shabby even if it is placed in the King Kongfeng Temple at the headquarters of Koya Mountain.

It's just that this big clock seems to be a little old and may have experienced the flames of war. There are traces of burning on the clock surface, but it is a circle of snake-like burn marks.

When a monk next to the bell saw someone coming in, he pushed a crossbar and hit the bell. "Bang--" A low bell sounded layers of sound waves resounded throughout the temple. As soon as the monks in the hall heard the bell ring, they seemed to have received some reminders and tried harder to recite the scriptures.

Zhang Fan shook the bell, but it was also a little dizzy. The palace is not big, but the bell is not small! Zhang Fan only felt the sound of Buddha, and he couldn't help chanting the Buddha. He was originally a Buddhist and was familiar with this Dharma. He came to the vacant seat in front of the Buddha in a few steps, sat down cross-legged, and entered the state.

The sound rhythm of Buddhist chanting is very hypnotic, which soon makes Zhang Fan intoxicated and muddy. I feel a little tired. I just felt that it was very comfortable to read the scriptures and meditate with everyone.

This is the day I want to live. I want to be a monk for a day. No matter what complicated the world is, everything can be left behind. I'm hiding in this corner, and all disputes have nothing to do with me! Leisurely, at home!

Zhang Fan's heart calls, let it go, let it go, this is the true meaning of Buddhism. Let go of everything, recite scriptures and take a nap, don't be entangled by the secular world, be idle all day long, and think about nothing. This is the life that Buddhists should live.

At this time, a voice occurred in my ear and said to myself, "Let's recite the scriptures today, and choose auspicious time tomorrow." Zhang Fan listened and was overjoyed. He nodded repeatedly and accepted it. Then he recited the sutras and recited the Buddha sleepily.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Fan faintly heard that someone kept calling him, but he didn't know who Aken was? Why do you always call yourself? Ill him, I'll be shaved tomorrow, and don't be distracted by other things.

The bell rang, and someone pulled Zhang Fan, "The auspicious time has arrived. The newcomer is ready to convert." Zhang Fan, who was taking a drowsy nap in the corner, heard this and quickly got up to follow. Kneel down in front of the Buddha statue.

At this time, the big bell seemed to be knocked by no one, and it vibrated. Layers of sound waves strangely affected Zhang Fan, and there was still a faint sound of chanting scriptures.

Zhang Fan's body was full of five-color Buddha light. Zhang Fan's mind suddenly woke up and seemed to be a little inappropriate, but he didn't know what went wrong. As the sound of the monks chanting around him sounded, the Buddha light on Zhang Fan's body seemed to dissipate hesitantly.

The monk in charge of shaving has stood in front of Zhang Fan, reading the converted scriptures and is about to fall. Zhang Fan's heart tightened, as if there were many things that he couldn't put down, but he couldn't remember.

"Master, can you... postpone it for a few days? The disciple doesn't seem to be ready yet!" Zhang Fan muttered.

As soon as he said this, the monk in charge of shaving waved his hand, and the monks immediately raised their volume and read the scriptures loudly. The big bell also keeps making a "b-b" sound. Zhang Fan's head was dizzy, and his ears were full of Sanskrit singing.

Zhang Fan is deeply ashamed of his retreat just now! He had never seen the circles of fire on the big clock, as if moving, vaguely like a black snake swimming.

The monk in charge of shaving, take a step forward, hold Zhang Fan's head, and he will drop the knife...

At this moment, a rapid brake sound sounded outside the hall. A figure flew in, raised his hand with a strange weapon, and spewed out a fire tongue at the big bell, making the big bell "bang". The burnt snake shadow broke away from the bell and rushed to the uninvited guest, but was suddenly blown by the door. The flames are against the head!

"You put this newcomer! Our well water does not violate the river! You lied to your monk, we have no relationship! If you get angry, you will burn your 'Daocheng Temple'!" Aken shouted at the big bell!

As soon as this statement came out, the big snake turned into a burning mark hesitated for a moment and retracted back to the bell, and the bell stopped abruptly!

Aken came forward and pulled Zhang Fan up, dragged him up and walked out. Zhang Fan also muttered, "This benefactor, you and I have never known each other. Why do you interrupt the shaving ceremony of the poor monk?"

"Bastard, you really want to become a monk!" Aken scolded and slapped Fan in the mouth fiercely. Willis also leaned over, and the vehicles and weapons were ready to go, aiming at the big bell.

Zhang Fan was beaten to dizziness, but his mouth was still unrelent: "Why did the donor hit me! We have no grudges. Why do you want to embarrass me? This guy really regards himself as a monk.

A petite figure next to him jumped over and hugged Zhang Fan, "Don't hit him. Zhang Fanjun is also confused by monsters. He will get better!" It's Lori Ninja Sakura.

The little girl turned around and patted Zhang Fan on the face, "Zhang Fanjun, do you still know me? I'm Dark Sakura!"

Zhang Fan was confused and looked at the person in front of him confusedly and said repeatedly, "Men and women are not close to each other. Go ahead, I still have to shave!"

Dark Sakura was so anxious that her eyes were full of tears, and she held Zhang Fan's hand tightly for fear that he would run away again.

"Is it already messed up?" Aken's eyes turned and his mind came to mind. He shouted at Zhang Fan, "Green Wing was killed!"

"What?!" Zhang Fan's heart thumped, grabbed Aken's collar and shouted, "Why was Green Wing killed!? Say it quickly!" He actually returned to his original identity as a discipline holder.

"Hey, I'm afraid you won't wake up if I say I'm dead, will you?" Aken said lazily.

Zhang Fan blushed and let go of his hand, "What's wrong with me? Dizzy. Where is Green Wing now? Why can't I contact her?

When I looked down and saw the dark cherry, I couldn't help blushing and said perfunctorily, "Oh, the dark cherry is also coming, hehe, I'm a little taller. How's your brother?"

When Dark Sakura saw him wake up and turn around, she 'hummed' and ignored him. Thinking of Zhang Fan's mention of Green Wing, he woke up and couldn't help but be jealous.

"Thanks to you, you still think of her. Aren't you going to be a monk just now? Green Wings is now in Edo City, Tokugawa Ieyasu's house, with Liu Shengzongju, which is very safe. I have contacted her before I came. She will come before the New Year, and Tokugawa Ieyasu will also come to Kyoto to host the New Year's festival. She escorted me all the way.

Aken took Zhang Fan and walked outside and said, "This is the place of the monster 'Daocheng Temple Bell'. Although it will not hurt people's lives, it is still mild, but after a long time, it will affect the heart. Let's leave quickly."

Aken came out of the temple and told Zhang Fan the origin of the monster. It turned out that when he came, he told He Maoshazhi about Zhang Fan's report. ** Yangshi told Aken that this monster was called 'Daocheng Temple Bell' and was a monster that specialized for people to become monks. And it will make people forget the past.

Legend has it that a woman named Qingji fell in love with a monk named An Zhen and chased her. Later, Qing Ji drowned while chasing An Zhen, turned into a big snake and continued to chase her.

The monk An Zhen ran to a place called 'Daocheng Temple' and got into the bottom of a big bell. The snake transformed by Qingji wrapped around the big bell and burned himself to death. Even the monk An Zhen was burned to death, turning into this monster called 'Daocheng Temple Bell'!
