Soul Painter

three days ago.

Penance is over.

The monks returned to the Great Ku Temple.

Packing up.

Suddenly, everyone heard a Buddha's name coming from the Thousand Buddha Hall.

Immediately afterwards, the entire Great Ku Temple began to sing humming Buddha sounds.

This sound is not coming from the loudspeaker, but echoes from the valley, falls in the Thousand Buddha Hall, and spreads out from the Thousand Buddha Hall.

All the monks who had just returned to the Great Ku Temple stopped packing their luggage. They gathered together out of curiosity, and together with some lay monks who had not participated in the ascetic practice, they formed a large crowd and stood in front of the Thousand Buddha Hall. Abbot Miaochan pushed open the gate of Qianfo Temple with doubts.

Miao Chan entered the Thousand Buddha Hall.

He heard the solemn Sanskrit sound.

echoed in the temple.

The murals that have been completed in the temple seem to come alive at this moment.

There are golden lotuses everywhere, the ceiling is falling, and the Buddhas wander in different time and space, passing shoulder to shoulder with Miao Chan, but the most conspicuous thing is still the blank wall facing the gate of the temple, with a gray-robed and thin back, I'm painting there.

And on the wall facing the back, a portrait of Buddha is being drawn in an extremely miraculous way—although this portrait has only a few lines, Miao Chan can undoubtedly confirm that it is Buddha, really Buddha!

thump! Miao Chan knelt down at the entrance of the hall, and after throwing his body to the ground, he didn't dare to raise his head, and slowly exited the hall, closing the door again.

Then, he sat at the entrance of the Thousand Buddha Hall and began to chant sutras with his eyes closed.

Although Miao Chan did not say a word after he came out of the Hall of Thousand Buddhas, only Qin Zhou stepped forward to ask something, but the other monks and lay people also sat cross-legged on the ground at the same time, echoing from the sky, the valley and the Thousand Buddhas in front of them. The Sanskrit sound from the hall began to chant sutras sincerely.

Start this day.

For three consecutive days.

Visions gradually appeared in the Great Ku Temple.

The bell in the temple rang without wind.

Since the early morning, nine nine eighty-one ringing.

The bell rang for a long time, but not only in the Great Ku Temple.

Instead, it started from Daku Temple and spread to Putuo Temple, Qingyan Temple, Zuyue Temple, Da'an Temple and so on in Liao Province.

It seems that there is a Buddha's decree, flying over thousands of mountains and rivers, and spreading Zen thoughts all over the world.

Afterwards, the strange sound of the bells was transmitted from Liao Province to the neighboring provinces of Kyrgyzstan, Hei, Meng, and Yu. The bronze bells in each temple rang without wind.

After that, it flew across the border and passed on in India, Myanmar, Bangladesh and other countries in turn.

Neighboring countries such as Siam and Japan have a prosperous Buddhist culture, and this vision immediately attracted the attention of the whole people.

In the past three days, the incident caused an uproar all over the world.

The ringing of the bell is a gradual diffusion, that is to say, the first sound, starting from the Daku Temple, will be transmitted to the Zhonghua Temple and Ci'en Temple in Liao Province after about one minute, and it will be three minutes later. It will resound through all Buddhist temples in the entire North China. Five minutes later, the White Horse Temple and Wenhua Temple in the hinterland of the Central Plains will ring. Twenty minutes later, the first bell of Siam will ring through.

It's like throwing a sparkling brick into the worldly sea, and the waves sweep the world.

It is not difficult to trace its central point.

After all, all you need to do is find out which temple bell rings first.

The Great Kuji Temple was soon exposed.

The vision of the bell ringing by itself soon caused a sensation in the whole world.

In particular, several countries with prosperous Buddhism triggered a wave of pilgrimage. Crowds of people going to worship Buddha in various temples blocked the traffic, which lasted for three consecutive days. Taking a share of the pie has won some believers, but the Daku Temple, which is the origin of the abnormal bell, has also aroused the pursuit of believers and ordinary people.

Although those visions had already passed when these people found the Great Ku Temple, but when someone asked the monks and laymen of the Great Ku Temple who had experienced this in the past three days, they would feel their piety from the bottom of their hearts.

The monks and laymen who had experienced the bells ringing by themselves, when they told about those three days, their voices were trembling with joy, telling all the listeners that not only the bells ringing by itself, but also the Buddha’s radiance in the Thousand Buddha Hall that night was as golden as a curtain. , which lasted for three full days.

During these three days, the monks and laymen of Daku Temple recited scriptures devoutly, never sleeping or resting, eating or speaking, but they didn't feel tired at all, only felt joy and auspiciousness.

"Golden light...is it a light?" Someone asked.

"It's the Buddha's light and the Buddha's sound. It has been on for three days and it has been ringing for three days. If you don't believe me, Abbot Miaochan can prove it!" said a layman.

Of course Miao Chan did not come to prove it.

On the contrary, Qin Zhou was more than happy to talk about those three days.

He said that when he heard the Zen sound, Miaochan sat in front of the hall and began to chant sutras. He was puzzled and asked a question.

Shh~ Miao Chan signaled Qin Zhou not to speak, and at the same time whispered something inexplicable: "The Buddha is coming."

Qin Zhou didn't know, so when he was about to ask again, the bell had already started ringing. At that time, Miao Chan and Qin Zhou didn't know that the sound of the ringing bell would spread to the whole world in such a miraculous manner, and in front of them, That miraculous power was far more than the sound of the bell. They saw the golden light gradually blooming in the Thousand Buddha Hall, from just like a candle to enough to light up the whole world.

And the Sanskrit Zen music that can shake the soul clearly came from the hall, and it became more and more grand, as if a whole band was playing hard in the hall. All this made them fascinated, and they couldn't help chanting scriptures, And more and more monks and lay Buddhists saw this scene. They woke up from sleep, stood in front of the Thousand Buddha Hall, looked around tremblingly, and worshiped and prayed devoutly.

This feast of Buddhist radiance and Sanskrit sound lasted for three full days, and reached an incomparable climax in the early morning of the third day. Some monks even swore that they saw infinite smallpox falling from the sky and golden light pouring down from the night sky like a curtain. The earth, in the excitement like a dream, they thought of the description in the Buddhist scriptures, when the Buddha became a Buddha, "The Buddha shines brightly and fills the three thousand great thousand worlds".

At this moment, they heard a sentence from the hall: "Heaven and earth, I am the only one!"

At this point, the light suddenly went out.

It's like magic that was suddenly cut off.

All that is holy is extinguished.

Looking at the Hall of Thousand Buddhas that suddenly became calm, all the monks and laymen in Daku Temple fell into panic. What happened?

At this time, only Miaochan, the abbot of Daku Temple, dared to step forward and pushed open the door of Thousand Buddha Hall with trembling hands. However, before he entered, a thin young man came out from inside.

Wearing a hoodie, this thin young man has a relaxed face, with half-length hair that reaches his shoulders, with his hands in his pockets, carrying the unrestrained artistry, exactly the same as when Miao Chan first met the artist.

"Hey~" The painter smiled when he saw Miao Chan.

Miao Chan was astonished, and said in amazement: "Layman Gaofan, you..."

"You mistook the person, the layman is inside." The painter came out with a smile on his face, facing the rising red sun, he shouted loudly: "Xin Wei! I'm here to find you!"

Miao Chan only felt suspicious, he looked at the painter's back, was stunned for a while, then looked into the hall, and saw the bright white light of the morning sun shining into the hall, a thin figure in gray robe who looked very devout from the back, with a straight face Sitting in the hall, facing the wall, the portrait of Tathagata on the wall has been completed.

But this image of Tathagata... Miao Chan suddenly felt even weirder, he took a few steps and rushed into the hall, carefully looked at the image of Tathagata, sure enough, this image was wrong, nothing was right!

"Amituofo." The gray-robed monk said, "Abbot, you are here. Look at this statue of the Tathagata. How is it painted?"

"Where is this Tathagata... This is clearly you!" Miao Chan said in amazement, indeed, in the faint morning light, one can see that the face of the tallest Tathagata on the wall is exactly the same as the gray-robed monk.

And when Miaochan looked at the monk carefully, he was even more astonished. He pointed at the monk with trembling fingers: "You, you are...!"

"I am the Tathagata." The gray-robed monk said with a coquettish smile, "From today onwards, I will be the only one in the world."
