Chapter 135 Purple Bamboo
(Purple Stem Qiong Ye Heavenly Sentence, Lord Zhu is not in Yuxi)
Lan Feng and others broke into Luojia Mountain from the dragon barrier. When they stepped forward, everyone felt a little cool in their spiritual bodies, as if they were enlightened and lightened all over.
Looking around, the surroundings are covered by dense bamboo forests, with only some mottled light and shadow falling on the ground through the gaps. These bamboos are not as green as in the outside world, but as translucent as purple glaze.
.
Through the skylight, these purple bamboos also cast a light purple mist around them. It was dreamy and blurry, and there was even the sound of a zither lingering in my ears.
There is a stone tablet standing at the entrance, which reads: "When you enter my land, you will be trapped in all directions. The sea of suffering has no end, but when you turn back, you will find the shore."
"Brother Mo Yun, how does this Luojia Mountain Purple Bamboo Forest compare with Manjusri's Wutai Taoist Temple?" Lan Feng said.
Mo Yun smiled and said: "Since the spiritual energy here is abundant, the state of mind is free of clutter, and is not disturbed by the outside world, a thousand years have passed in the span of one breath..."
Mu Zhizhi also said: "Avalokitesvara is such a great work, and this purple bamboo is also a rare thing in the world. Look at the skylight above, although it is shining brightly, there is no warmth at all. And it is sitting at the foot of Luojia Mountain.
There is no source of light in the sea water. Looking at the purple air all around, I guess the halo here must be emanating from the purple bamboo."
Lu Mu stepped forward and placed her hand on the glazed purple bamboo. Suddenly, a dazzling purple light spread out from the palm of her hand and disappeared on the bamboo in an instant.
"Look..."
At this time, Ruoxue made a new discovery on the side. Everyone followed Ruoxue and saw a stream winding out from the purple bamboo forest into the distance, and the water in the stream did not look like ordinary water.
.
The color of the water is like suet, the water flow is like honey, the reflected shadow is pure white, and the fragrance is diffused.
Ruoxue took a little bit of the liquid and put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed: "It smells good..."
As she said that, she reached out and put it into her mouth. Lan Feng grabbed her hand and said, "Don't try the things of gods and Buddhas easily..."
He said at the end: "I once heard in the human world that there is a clear stream named 'Yuxi' where the mountain spirit and sea energy gather together. Could it be that it is such a stream?"
After hearing this, Lan Feng thought that although Luojia Mountain was in the form of a mountain, it was included in the South China Sea by Guanyin. Wouldn't it correspond to the place where the mountain spirit and sea energy are present?
It's just that everyone is still confused about what is strange about this "Yuxi".
Lan Feng looked at the reflection in the water and said, "Let's go, let's go up there first. Before anyone notices us yet, we can take one more step if we can."
Everyone nodded and walked up the mountain. Purple air lingered and swayed in the mountain. Lan Feng and others walked for three hours.
There was nothing else in the scenery except the purple bamboo forest and Yuxi. Not even a stone or weed could be seen. After walking for another three-quarters of an hour, Lan Feng and others began to feel something was wrong.
Although a few people entered the purple bamboo forest and kept walking up, the slope of the hillside seemed to have never changed. Moreover, everyone found that the sound of the zither and harp in their ears had been playing repeatedly.
Lan Feng said: "It seems that what the stone tablet said is true. This purple bamboo forest is really trapped in all directions."
"Is it a ghost hitting the wall?" Mo Yun asked.
Lan Feng shook his head and said: "How can there be such cheap tricks in the holy land of Buddhism? I feel that these bamboo forests seem to be created by Avalokitesvara to dissuade the creatures that accidentally wandered into Luojia Mountain. Do you believe it or not, if we
Go back and we will soon be out of Luojia Mountain."
"Buddhism is a place of purity
, it is reasonable to set up these confusing obstacles." Mu Zhi said.
Hai Yesheng shouted with his eagle wings: "If you can't walk, where can you fly?"
After that, he flapped his wings and flew upwards, but then, the purple bamboo forest looked strange. As Hai Yesheng flew into the air, these purple bamboos also followed Hai Yesheng and grew upward. After flying an inch, the bamboo forest became taller.
One inch; if it flies ten feet, the bamboo forest will be ten feet high...
After a long time with no results, Hai Yesheng had no choice but to fall into the air and shake his head to signal to everyone.
Lanfeng walked to a piece of purple bamboo, held a bamboo pole with his hand and began to twist it, but no matter how hard he tried, the purple bamboo did not move at all.
"Yinghuo, give it a try."
Lan Feng shouted, and he used demonic fire to burn the purple bamboo. After touching it for a long time, it was still so cold.
"This bamboo should be blessed by Buddhism. Physical attacks and physical attacks are ineffective." Lan Feng said.
Mu Zhi said: "Brother Lanfeng wants to make a mark here?"
Lan Feng nodded. He took out a piece of feather silk from his arm, turned it into a tit and placed it on a bamboo branch. He said: "Let's continue walking forward..."
After walking for several miles, everyone began to feel anxious. Looking around, they saw the tit that Lan Feng had just placed on the bamboo branch standing there!
"Brother Lanfeng, apart from the way out, what's the difference between this purple bamboo forest and a ghost wall?" Mo Yun said.
Lanfeng frowned and walked towards Titmouse. Suddenly, the music in his ears reset at a certain step he took.
He paced back and forth on this step, and after confirming the origin of the sound, he informed everyone of the information.
Mu Zhi said: "Brother Lanfeng means that the alternating step of the piano sound is used as a boundary to form a closed circuit in the purple bamboo forest?"
"Yes," Lan Feng said, "Although I still don't know how to crack it, the starting point and end point must be the key to cracking it."
Several people looked around and began to search around. But all they saw was purple, and the purple bamboo was a stubborn stone that could not be chopped down or burned.
"This Guanyin doesn't want anyone to come in at all!" Ruoxue said angrily.
Indeed, the weirdness of this place has gone beyond the scope of understanding of Lan Feng and others, but Lan Feng always firmly believes that no matter the formation or mechanism, it has its own established logic, and as long as you follow this logic, you can find a way to crack it.
The stupidest way is to destroy it with absolute force, but now it seems that this method no longer works.
"Is there anything else that I haven't noticed?" Lan Feng murmured to himself.
At this time, Mu Zhizhi looked at the blurred purple space, and with a blink of an eye, he focused his eyes on the Yuxi River.
He walked to the stream and stared at the reflection in the stream in a daze.
At this time, Lanfeng and the others had been searching around the purple bamboo for a long time without success, and wanted to hear the opinions of this mountain-moving wise man. Lanfeng called out Mu Zhizhi's name and asked him to come over to talk. Upon hearing the sound, Mu Zhizhi turned his head to
Go back to the side.
But at the moment when he turned his head, Mu Zhizhi saw from the corner of his eye that the reflection in Yuxi was missing a bit!
Mu Zhizhi's heart trembled, and he turned his head over little by little regardless of Lan Feng's shouts.
He stood on the side of the critical point drawn by Lan Feng, concentrating on the reflection in Yuxi. At this time, his whole body stood in front of the critical point, which was the end where the sound of the piano began in his ears, and on his left side
It is the end point of the critical point.
Mu Zhizhi raised his right hand and saw that the right hand in the reflection was also raised intact, but when he raised his left hand
When, a shocking scene happened...
The reflection at the end of the critical point disappeared out of thin air...
Cold sweat began to appear on Mu Zhizhi's forehead. He looked at his left hand longingly and said nothing.
Lanfeng and the others shouted several times but Mu Zhizhi was nowhere to be seen. When they turned around, they saw Mu Zhizhi alone by the Yuxi River in a daze...
"Zhizhi!!"
Mo Yun shouted again, but when they saw that Mu Zhizhi didn't respond, several people's hearts were lifted.
They hurried to Mu Zhizhi and waved their hands in front of his eyes.
"Don't move, let me think about it..." Mu Zhi said.
Lanfeng and the others didn't dare to say anything when they saw this, for fear of disturbing Mu Zhizhi's thoughts. Ruoxue discovered a clue in the Yuxi.
She opened her eyes wide and patted Lan Feng, motioning him to look into Yuxi.
Lan Feng looked around and was also startled. He hurriedly jumped around the critical point to check repeatedly, and the result was exactly the same as what Mu Zhizhi saw!
The eyes of the previous people were all focused on the purple bamboo forest nearby, but they paid no attention to Yuxi. They always thought that the arrangement of the purple bamboos and the diffuse purple light misled them.
But at this time, this theory will be completely overturned...
Everyone discovered that in front of this critical point, the reflection showed no abnormality, but behind this critical point, everyone's shadow disappeared...
Mu Zhizhi came to his senses. In front of everyone, he drew a ring with gold wire and cut a hole in the ring.
He pointed at the circle and said: "Look, assuming this gap is the critical point of where we are, if we go forward, the reflection will be normal, but if we go backward, the reflection will disappear.
However, the space we live in is like this closed circle. Even if we keep moving forward, we will eventually reach behind this critical point.
However, this phenomenon of reflection has a place worth looking for..."
Ruoxue and Luomo were a little confused. Seeing that they had doubts, Lanfeng said: "What Zhizhi means is that since we go on like this, the starting point will become the end point, but the reflection is there at the starting point and not at the end point.
So, we don’t know when this reflection began to disappear. To make it clear, there is a third point between the starting point and the end point, and this point is the point where our reflection begins to disappear.
"
After Jing Lanfeng said this, Luo Mu and Ruoxue realized that the reason why they couldn't see the reflection behind the critical point was because the reflection had disappeared before reaching the end point, so next, they had to find the place where the reflection disappeared.
Plan for the next step.
So, these people walked forward while always paying attention to the reflection in Yuxi.
If Mu Zhizhi wasn't really smart, when they walked about three miles, they saw the reflection in Yuxi and started to turn back from this point!
Everyone in Lanfeng stopped in a hurry, and the reflection also stopped.
"What does this mean?" Luo Mu asked.
Mu Zhi said: "No, according to this distance, we should have reached half of the entire circle, but the reflection in the Yuxi did not disappear directly, but turned back and went back.
Not to mention why this strange thing happened, according to this inference, when we reach the end, we should be able to see our own reflection walking towards us, but why didn't we see it when we approached the critical point just now?
