Chapter 298 You don’t want other brothers to know that you broke the rules, right?
Before nightfall, Jinniang had already bathed several times, applied rouge and powder, and vomited again.
He was afraid that he was not clean enough and would defile the Buddhist treasure.
Before we knew it, the sound of drums began to sound and the sound of bells from the Leiyin Ancient Temple could be heard.
It's already the first watch of the night.
Jinniang was so excited that she couldn't sit still, so she simply left the tent.
Then they saw the demonic shadows in the market gradually receding, and beyond the clouds, the sunlight was blocked by the mountain peaks, leaving a golden edge for them.
Jinniang bit her lip secretly, it seemed like the time had come.
She took out two pairs of incense sticks, cast a spell to light them, and the curling sandalwood incense rose up, as if to disinfect the worldly smell on her body.
Wait until the bell rings three times.
Suddenly a voice came from the tent: "The sound of drums on all sides is urging the night to come, and a third of the cold air penetrates the heavy curtains; two painted candles incense the quiet room, and a single Zen lamp makes the Buddhist temple clear."
Jinniang felt uneasy, she gritted her teeth, pushed open the door curtain, and walked out of the tent, where she saw two arhats with naked upper bodies and Buddha's light surrounding them, as if they had skin and bones of gold and jade.
She was wondering how to start when she saw the two monks opposite her bow slowly and speak in unison.
"I am Ananda, I am Kasyapa, please follow me into the mountains."
When Ananda saw Jinniang, he felt his heart, which longed for tranquility, begin to beat violently.
Although this beauty is a demon in disguise, she looks like a person jumping out of a painting. She is as beautiful as a flower. One finger longer would be too long, one finger less would be too short. Her figure is just right.
The disaster is coming!
Ananda understood it clearly.
When he saw this witch, he already had the urge to switch to practicing Joyful Zen.
This female demon was prepared for the monks who practiced Joyful Zen. If he did not practice Joyful Zen, he would not have the chance to use it and could only watch helplessly as other fellow monks whipped her severely.
Jinniang bowed gracefully.
Ananda hurriedly returned the greeting.
"Let's go~"
Kashyapa thought Ananda's behavior was quite strange. Seeing that the demoness was in a panic as if she was possessed by an evil spirit, he frowned and urged her.
The Buddha's light carried three figures and flew towards Mount Sumeru.
When they reached the front of the mountain, the light stopped.
Jiaye took out a jade plate from his arms and asked Jinniang to take out a drop of blood and drop it on it.
Jinniang did as she was told.
As the blood sank into the jade disc, a bright yellow light enveloped Jinniang's body.
"Okay, now everything about you has been registered on Mount Xumi, and you can come and go freely from now on."
Jinniang was extremely happy and hurriedly thanked them: "Thank you, two holy monks."
"Don't be happy too soon. Even if you are registered in Mount Xumi, you must always remember that you are just a demon that cannot be on the stage. Keep your duty as a demon and serve my fellow monks well. Then you will have no worries. If you dare to have second thoughts~"
Kasyapa spoke in a knock-on manner.
"Jinniang is awake! Jinniang will definitely abide by her duties and not overstep the line."
Jinniang said hurriedly.
"Senior brother likes to exaggerate, don't worry, Jinniang."
Ananda felt sorry for him and tried to comfort him quickly.
The group entered Mount Xumi and headed towards the Leiyin Ancient Temple.
The weather inside and outside the mountain is completely different.
Yang Jian changed into a plum blossom hairpin, and his vision was obstructed, but even so he could see a strange sight.
The last time he came to Mount Xumi, there was a Nine Demon Tower standing on the top of the mountain.
At this time, the Nine Demon Tower disappeared without a trace, and in its place was a tall and majestic Zen temple radiating precious light.
As we approached, we saw the plaque on the temple with the name of "Leiyin Ancient Temple" written in Sanskrit. The sound of chanting scriptures emerged faintly, as if it came from thunder in the sky.
"Did you hear that? The thunder sound of the Leiyin Ancient Temple comes from the sound of the chanting. I heard that it was derived from the rhythm of the Tao that guided the Buddha."
Ananda explained to Mei Niang.
Mei Niang nodded timidly.
Several people entered through the side door.
Ananda's mood instantly became depressed. When he thought about Jinniang being played with at will by the monks who were sent to the Joyful Zen, he felt a little jealous.
But there was nothing he could do.
After settling Jinniang down.
Ananda began to become distracted.
Jiaye noticed something was wrong with Ananda from the beginning: "Brother, be careful, you have evil thoughts. It's just a female demon, why would she make you look so ugly? You have wisdom, and you should also have the sword of wisdom. You should know that only when the sword of wisdom cuts off the ties of love can you be free."
Ananda came to his senses and said, "Brother, what you have taught me is right. Ananda knows that he is wrong. Now I will go and meditate in meditation."
When Ananda returned to his meditation room, he sat cross-legged in meditation, contemplating the Heart Sutra. He thought that his thoughts about Jinniang would gradually fade away as he recited the sutra.
As a result, as he continued to recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name, the evil fire in his mind became more and more intense.
He opened his eyes suddenly.
"Take a shower and change your clothes first. A senior brother will come to teach you the supreme magic in a moment!"
The monk brought a bathtub and gave instructions to Mei Niang who had just arrived.
Mei Niang knew what would happen next, but she didn't pretend to be nice. She just put the plum blossom hairpin aside, took off her makeup, and jumped into the water.
Yang Jian took advantage of his inattention, rolled to the ground, and slowly flew away along the corner of the wall.
Before flying away, he considerately released all the hairpins he had put away so that Jinniang would not be unable to find them.
When he reached a secluded place, he transformed himself into a flying insect and carefully explored the holy land of Buddhism.
This search made Yang Jian feel very disappointed.
All I can say is that the Leiyin Ancient Temple is worthy of being a holy place of Buddhism, it is really huge.
He flew for a long time but ended up getting lost. After going around in circles, he returned to where Jinniang stayed.
Moreover, he did not dare to fly too fast. There were no small flying insects in the Leiyin Ancient Temple. His sudden appearance would only arouse suspicion. He could only fly away from the monks. If he could not avoid them, he could only turn into a dead object and get away with it.
As for turning into a monk, he felt that it was not appropriate. If he met the real person who transformed himself, or if a monk who knew him came over to say hello, it would be troublesome.
During this period of time, countless monks have come and gone in Jinniang's room.
The noise never stops; the water is always changing.
The flying insect transformed by Yang Jian was crawling on a coral tree outside his house, wondering whether he should kill a monk and replace him completely, and then find other monks to get the location of the Golden Lotus of Merit.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar bald man wandering stealthily on the roof of the Zen room.
It was Ananda.
Ananda tilted his ear against the tile, listening to the noise inside, with a painful expression on his face.
He hated himself for not practicing Joy Zen, and was jealous that it was not him who went to Wushan with Jinniang.
Finally, the monk who was practicing in the room finished his work and went out with his clothes on.
Ananda hurried into the room, and saw the spring scenery. He quickly closed his eyes, but did not leave, and just stood on the ground.
Jinniang was lying in the bathtub, looking surprised: "Didn't you say that the next one would come after you wash up? Why are you so impatient?"
Ananda's face immediately turned red with rage, and he managed to squeeze out a few words from between his teeth: "I~I don't practice Joyful Zen!"
“Don’t you practice joyful meditation?”
Jinniang seemed to be thinking about something, her eyes rolling around, and seeing Ananda's behavior, she immediately knew that Ananda had been fascinated by her.
"Then you just looked at my body, didn't that mean you broke the vow of chastity? You don't want other brothers to know that you broke the vow, do you?"
