Chapter 305 (1/2)
|||--Mu hurriedly led Feng Huolun and cat demon to the branch view of Taihao temple on seaweed island for help.
Hua Lanting and Lin Xianjing, together with Yiquan, went to the residence of Xingyi monk in fahua temple.
Chen Lu'an and Yun Yiqi accompanied master ran to meet the speaker of Buddhism on the island. Master he explained the situation and discussed countermeasures.
Hua Lanting, alone, led by the head of the Zhike monk class of fahua temple, came to the meditation room where he lived temporarily.
The meditation room is not big and the furnishings are very simple. There is nothing but a bed, a table and a futon.
The quiet room has a panoramic view. The only thing that attracts everyone's attention is a thin piece of paper on the wooden table.
The paper is light yellow and translucent, with a withered yellow leaf in the middle. The leaf is large, the bottom is elliptical, the top is tapered, the edge has irregular wavy shallow cracks, and there are five clear side veins on both sides of the main vein.
Lin Xian was surprised and asked, ”excuse me, class leader, what leaf is this?”
The first class replied, ”this is the leaf of Datura tree.”
”Shifu Xingyi is simple in nature and has no other property with him. He only likes Datura flowers and leaves. He takes this dead leaf with him wherever he travels.”
Seeing things and thinking of people, Zhike monk already knew that the shape and meaning monk was missing. He read a Buddhist name and continued: ”I think it may also have something to do with his old man's Kung Fu.”
”Shifu Xingyi's Buddhist accomplishments are profound, but his martial arts accomplishments are not too high. He should be in the heart opening period, which is equivalent to the practice of Taoism. Moreover, he doesn't want to fight with others. He mainly practices the method of self-defense, which is called” Mandala wall ”.
”What's unique about this Kung Fu?” Hua Lanting asked.
The head of the Zhike monk class said, ”it's just tenacity. It's reinforced layer by layer and goes back and forth. As long as there's no aura in the body, it can always play a role. Opponents at the same level or only stronger are generally difficult to break through.”
”Is there any weakness?” Lin Xian asked.
”I don't know. People with high cultivation can break it with strength, or consume the user's internal power.”
Yi LiuNian asked again, ”Mandala seems to be a Buddhist term. Is there anything particular about it?”
”Mandala is a Sanskrit translation. In Sanskrit, it probably means the altar. Its original meaning is that the wheel circle is sufficient or gathered. It refers to the gathering place of all saints and virtues.”
”The mandala figure in Buddhism is the map of the universe in the mind during daily practice of the secret Dharma. It is mainly circular or square, quite symmetrical, and contains the meaning of Vientiane Senlie, harmony and order. It is used to express the real Vientiane of the universe and the Zen circle of internal photography.”
Out of the meditation room, on the way back, the doctor ran out and said to everyone, ”Datura is poisonous.”
The crowd was startled.
”I'm not talking about this leaf. Even if it's poisonous and withered for so long, it's harmless,” he said
”Datura is rare in Shuxuan Xianzhou, but there are many in the West. I've only seen it in ancient books, and I'm not sure if it's the same plant. It may just be translated into text homonymy. There are many names of Datura, mandala and mandala.”
”According to the book, Datura, commonly known as poisonous ginseng eggplant, is the best of flowers. It is noble, elegant and mysterious. It opens at night and closes at day. The fragrance of flowers is light and elegant, the flowers are beautiful, and the leaves are enchanting. It is highly toxic and has no solution. It is also called love flower. Smelling more will make people hallucinate.”
”It is said that this flower has been cursed. There is an elf living in each plant that can help people realize their wishes. The exchange condition is human blood. As long as you water it with your own blood, when it blooms, the elf in the flower will meet one of your wishes, representing a warm and fatal feeling.”
”The whole plant of Datura stramonium is toxic. The toxicity of fruits, especially seeds, is the largest, followed by young leaves, and the toxicity of dry leaves is the smallest. The toxin has anesthetic and psychedelic effects. In severe cases, it will faint, twitch and spasm until death.”
Yi LiuNian said, ”don't scare me, martial sister. Do you think Xingyi monk was poisoned?”
Yiquan shook his head: ”I just remembered that. First, the leaf must be non-toxic. Second, the two are not necessarily the same kind of trees and plants. Third, it is said that there are four kinds of Mandala in the West: big Mandala, samaya Mandala, FA mandala and karma Mandala. Only black ones are highly toxic. I haven't seen it with my own eyes.”
Since it was just speculation, we didn't continue the discussion. We went back to our residence and waited for the news of the other two places.
Chen Lu'an was the first to come back. He said that the river master was shocked and attached great importance to it. Let them keep quiet first. He would try his best to search and investigate first.
At about Shenshi in the afternoon, Mu hurried several people back and brought back a pile of papers, all of which were the materials visited by Taihao temple in this half day. Mu hurried said that the people of Taihao temple were very efficient.
There are 10000 or 20000 Buddhists and demons, other small and medium-sized sects and scattered monks on Haitai Island, occupying the mountains and scattered places in the center of the island. There are hundreds of thousands of civilians on the island. In addition to the aborigines, many of them have moved here from the Chinese language divine region to avoid disasters, and most of them live in the periphery and coastal areas.
Haitai island is located in the hub and is the main access road to the realm of Chinese language. In order to take the initiative, Buddhism and evil cultivation have fought for many times. After the tragic war, no one can occupy this place alone, which forms the situation of joint garrison now.
