Chapter 10
Chapter 10
The Hanging Temple is suspended halfway up the mountain, and Meng Lijun is exhausted just by climbing up.He didn't expect Minghua to carry him on his back, but he didn't expect to have to climb the mountain in such a miserable situation, and felt that he would roll down the steep steps in minutes.
This monk is too inhumane.
Meng Lijun kept cursing Minghua in his heart, but finally he insisted on climbing up.
Xuankong Temple was originally named Xuankong Pavilion, "Xuan" is taken from Taoism, and "kong" is taken from Buddhism. It is the earliest and best-preserved high-altitude wooden cliff building in China.In fact, the Hanging Temple is not big, but it is really amazing that it can be embedded in the cliff without falling down only by the mortise and tenon structure.
However, according to Minghua, the reason why the Hanging Temple was able to hang on the cliff safely and soundly was also due to the blessing of some special powers.
Standing on the edge of the railing and looking down, a feeling of dizziness came up immediately, Meng Lijun's body fell forward involuntarily, and Ming Hua immediately grabbed him.
"Are you ok?"
"Fortunately, I'm a little tired..." Meng Lijun's face was completely pale, and it always made people feel that he would faint in a second.
"There is still a long way to go." Ming Hua frowned and said, not sure whether it was worry or embarrassment.
"Where else are we going?" Meng Lijun asked in despair.
Ming Hua pointed to the outside of the cliff with his finger.
"what?"
"Come up." Minghua turned around suddenly, knelt on the ground on one knee, and signaled Meng Lijun to climb up.
"You, are you going to carry me on your back?"
"You can also go by yourself." After Minghua finished speaking, he was about to get up, and Meng Lijun immediately rushed forward when he saw this, looking like he couldn't miss the opportunity.
"Then I won't be polite to you." Meng Lijun lay on Minghua's strong back, and just felt relieved for a second when Minghua suddenly stepped on the railing.
"???" Meng Lijun was shocked, "Are you taking me to die for love?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Minghua took a step towards the cliff outside. Meng Lijun closed his eyes tightly in fright, but the expected fall did not occur, and Minghua still stood there... standing in the air.
Meng Lijun looked back and forth, he was not dazzled, they were indeed walking in the air.He looked at the tourists in the Hanging Temple, but no one noticed them, could it be another hallucination?
"Stay obediently and don't move around," Ming Hua said.
Whether it is a hallucination or not, as long as Minghua is still there, Meng Lijun feels relieved.
The scenery in front of him began to change, and the mountain peaks not far away began to move like props for the set, and the white mist gradually gathered, covering the surrounding area.After a while, the fog dissipated, and now the road suddenly appeared again.Meng Lijun looked back subconsciously, it was still a mountain road, and the Hanging Temple had disappeared.
"Where is this?"
"Thousand Buddha Ridge, the land of the god of the underworld."
"Is the Lord of the Underworld...?"
"She's here."
Minghua put Meng Lijun down as he spoke, and looked at a natural rock at the upper left.Meng Lijun followed Minghua's eyes and saw a black-haired woman about 30 years old sitting on the rock.
"It's really a rare visitor." The woman crossed her legs and looked down at the two of them.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
As soon as Ming Hua finished speaking, the woman jumped off the rock and came in front of the two of them.Meng Lijun looked at the woman in front of him, and saw that she was wearing a black-gray cloud skirt and feather coat, with a rattan belt around her waist. Behind the belt, there were three thin bands with two finger-wide scale patterns hanging down to the ground. There was a round metal ornament in front of the belt. , Look carefully, it is the totem of Xuanwu.
The woman looked at Ming Hua, then at Meng Lijun, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with God Meng Zhang?"
Meng Lijun was stunned for a moment, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere before.
"He was bitten by Xuanwu in Baiyun Temple."
"Oh?" The woman laughed amusedly, "No wonder I feel refreshed these past few days. It turns out that I was lucky enough to absorb the immortal energy of God Meng Zhang."
Meng Lijun couldn't help pointing at himself with his index finger, and asked Minghua in a low voice, "Meng Zhang is me?"
Ming Hua also replied in a low voice: "Who else is there besides you?"
After finishing speaking, Minghua walked forward, and Zhiming followed naturally. The two walked side by side, leaving Meng Lijun standing still.
It is obvious that the woman in front of her is Xuanwu, and "Shenjun Zhiming" must be her title.So the question is, who is Mengzhang Shenjun?
Meng Lijun recalled some books related to folk culture that he had read. Although in the immortal system, there are many titles with the word "jun" next to them, such as Xianjun, Shenjun, Zhenjun, Yuanjun, etc., but they are called "Shenjun". There should be only four great beasts.
Obviously he is not Xuanwu, not Suzaku, not even White Tiger, so... "Qinglong?"
Meng Lijun couldn't help shivering, suddenly felt that the unknown world was a bit scary, and he began to miss the days when he was honestly a doctoral student at Yanda University.
"Meng Zhang?" Seeing that Meng Lijun didn't follow, Ming Hua turned around and called softly.
Hearing Minghua call him that, Meng Lijun collapsed, "Please tell me this is all a dream..."
The reason why Qianfo Ridge is called Qianfo Ridge is because thousands of stone Buddhas, large and small, are engraved on this mountain.There is a natural rock on the top of Qianfo Ridge, which is the place where Zhiming sat before.A brick pagoda imitating wood structure is built on the rock. The tower is four stories high and the body of the tower is carved with exquisite patterns.
Meng Lijun didn't know what Minghua said to Zhiming, it seemed that Zhiming agreed to heal his wound.Minghua asked Meng Lijun to go with Zhiming, while he sat cross-legged on the rock beside the brick pagoda.
Meng Lijun followed Zhiming to the other side of the rock, only to find that there were three caves under the brick pagoda.Walking into the largest stone cave, you will be greeted by a nearly two-meter-high large stone Buddha carved on the front and east and west sides. There are also many small stone Buddhas carved around the cave.Meng Lijun couldn't help sighing, it's really a real Thousand Buddha Ridge.
"follow me."
After Zhi Ming threw down a sentence, he circled to the right and disappeared.
Meng Lijun quickly followed, but when he circled to the right, what appeared in front of him was a pool of water.Looking around, the scenery of the mountains is pleasant to the birds, and the shadows of the lake are empty to the hearts of the people. It is obvious that this is not the cave in Qianfo Ridge.
"Come and sit."
Zhiming's voice came from behind, Meng Lijun turned his head and saw her sitting on a piece of dead wood by the lake.
Meng Lijun also walked to the dead tree. As soon as he sat down, Zhi Ming stretched out his hand in front of him, "Show me the wound."
Meng Lijun stretched out his right hand obediently, the wound on the index finger was still black, but the difference was that there was a black mist floating around the index finger.
"Heh, you guys are too busy to come to me with such a small wound." Zhi Ming smiled, and with a movement of her finger, black mist wrapped around her hand and twirled around her fingertips.But when she put her hand down, the mist returned to Meng Lijun's injured index finger.
"Then you will deal with it." Meng Lijun answered cautiously.
Seeing Meng Lijun's respectful expression towards him, Zhiming felt a little funny, "Are you really not even capable of this?"
"Eh?"
"It's really sad that the former leader of the Four Elephants ended up like this."
Feeling Zhi Ming's naked contempt, Meng Lijun was really not used to it.In the outside world, he is still considered a dragon and phoenix. After all, not everyone can get into Yanda University. In addition, he looks good. Although he can't be called a celebrity, he is still very popular. Finally, he came here It became "such an end", this kind of encounter was really the first time for Meng Lijun.
"You... really didn't recognize the wrong person?"
Zhiming raised Meng Lijun's chin with his index finger, "What do you think?"
"Ahem, okay, I understand." Meng Lijun retracted his chin, "Then this wound..."
Zhiming raised his right hand and spread it slowly, Meng Lijun thought he was looking for something from himself, thinking that he had nothing to give, only to see the three thin bands with scale pattern on Zhiming's waist slowly rising. It rose up and gradually materialized, turning into three snake tails.The scales on the snake's tail flipped like waves, Meng Lijun could see clearly, those scales were as sharp as blades.
Oh my god, there are monsters...
Meng Lijun resisted the urge to run away, thinking that since he was once the leader of the Four Elephants, no matter what, he was also the leader of Zhiming, and he still wanted face.
The snake tail twisted in the air, at this moment, the snake tail in the middle suddenly became longer, circled in the air, and stabbed at Zhi Ming's open palm.
When the snake tail flashed in front of Meng Lijun, he subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but when he realized that the target of the snake tail was not himself, he could only continue to raise his hand that was stopped in the air in embarrassment, and straightened his hair.
Seeing Meng Lijun's reaction, Zhi Ming twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly.
Withdrawing the snake tail, a dark red blood drop appeared in Zhiming's palm.She flipped her wrist and sent out the blood beads. The next second, Meng Lijun felt that she had swallowed something.
"Ahem..." Meng Lijun coughed a few times, and then his stomach felt like someone was grabbing him, and he felt a sharp pain.He fell to the ground, covered his stomach, and said the lines he saw on TV: "You... poisoned me..."
Zhi Ming couldn't bear it anymore, and rolled his eyes to the sky.
How did the once majestic Qinglong Shenjun become like this?
"You're fine," Zhi Ming said.
After a few seconds, the pain in the stomach gradually disappeared. Meng Lijun looked at his index finger. The black mist was dissipating, and the blackened wound was healing.
"Thank you big brother... Oh no, big god." Meng Lijun stood up and asked with some embarrassment: "Shall we go out now?"
The former leader of the Four Elephants still feels a little guilty when he stays with an unpredictable woman.
However, Zhi Ming didn't move, just changed the subject and asked, "Why didn't you explain why Hua didn't treat you?"
"Minghua?"
"With such a small wound, you have traveled thousands of miles to find me, and you are not afraid of trouble."
"'The person who needs to tie the bell to untie the bell', maybe because I was bitten by Xuanwu, so..."
"It's right to look for me, but who is Minghua? He can easily break this small obstacle."
"Who is Ming Hua?" Meng Lijun immediately grasped the point, "He said he was just an ordinary monk."
"Do you believe it?"
Meng Lijun shook his head resolutely, and then sat back on the stake as if he had found a comrade-in-arms who shared the same hatred.
