Chapter 12 Buddhist Nest

After experiencing the body of a Buddhist, I immediately began to observe the surrounding situation. Inside the gate of the Daleiyin Temple is a wide straight road, with lush towering ancient trees on both sides of the road, and in the center of the road is a rectangular pool. The water in the pond looks strange in color, which seems to be green and red, and a golden lotus grows in the water. I have seen this lotus in the Heavenly Court before, and I remember that it seems to be medicinal, but today I rarely get into it. I don’t plan to waste my time on this low-value golden lotus.

After passing through this section of Lianchi Avenue, there is a long upward staircase, but I was not confused by the staircase in front of me. This staircase is famous. This thing is called a ladder, but don’t think you can walk all the way to the sky. The reason why this thing is called a ladder is to describe it being difficult to reach the destination through it, so it is called a ladder. In fact, this thing is simple to say, it is nothing more than a stair-like maze array, but its design is more exquisite and can be hidden from most people. If you don’t know how to break this thing, even if you climb it for a lifetime, don’t expect to reach the top, but for me this is not a problem, because I happen to understand these things.

After walking up the first level of the ladder, I immediately closed my eyes, and then squatted down to start touching. Each ladder has a spell similar to a password, but I am not a Buddhist, so I don’t know about the spells, so I can only use special methods. Although the maze array of ladders is relatively high, it is just a trick. As long as I am not confused by the senses, there is no big problem. I touched up along the ground and quickly touched the next few steps. Then I began to lie on the ground and climb up the steps I touched on my hands. After about twenty or thirty steps, my hand suddenly couldn’t touch the next one. Then I quickly climbed up and stood up and walked forward a few steps before opening my eyes.

Everything in front of me is very different from what I saw under the steps before. Before I came up, I saw a huge building complex behind the steps. It looked so magnificent, but now the situation is completely different. What appeared in front of me was a large group of caves. What surprised me even more was that there was a large crater with magma coming out behind the caves. Didn’t Buddhism talk about the Pure Land of Western Paradise? In my impression, it should be a place similar to the Garden of Eden? Why would their nest be like a volcanic furnace? If I didn’t know that this was the Buddhist nest, I might have thought I had rushed into the dragon’s nest when I rushed in!

Although I was frightened by the scene in front of me, I quickly realized. No matter what secrets the Buddhist sect hides here, this is their nest after all. The key is to find the Buddhist treasure now. Of course, the premise is that they must have treasures, but I am not worried about this. The demon clan was almost extinct and could accumulate so many good things. The Buddhist sect had been in court for so long. If you say that you didn't accumulate anything and beat them to death, I wouldn't believe it. The key question depends on whether I could find it.

Since there are too many caves in Buddhism, it is obviously not realistic to look for them one by one, so I decided to ask. I can't beat Buddhist masters, but that doesn't mean that Buddhism is all powerful individuals. There must be some messy attendants and other personnel here. I don't believe that even those who clean the sanitation are god-level powerful people. After searching for a while, I found a little monster tidying up near a cave. This guy was muttering something while packing things. It was obviously a talking race. After observing for a while, I suddenly pounced on the back and pressed the guy to the ground. The little monster I caught immediately screamed, but I was scared by my shut up.

"If you don't want to die, just keep quiet."

"Yes, yes, yes." The little monster replied in horror. "What are the instructions for the guardian?" I was a little stunned when I heard the little monster's name, but after looking at my body, I realized. The little monster obviously regarded me as the guy who was occupied by me. My eyes turned and I had a plan. Since he had recognized my identity wrongly, I didn't have to be polite, just to take advantage of his misunderstanding.

"Who do you think we have the most treasures?"

"this……?"

"What's this one? Tell me quickly!" I scolded fiercely.

"Of course it is the Buddha Tathagata!" This is almost the same as what I thought.

"Do you know where Buddhas usually like to put their treasures?"

"Don't all Buddha's things be guarded by the Treasure Tree King?" the little monster asked me in confusion.

I am not a person here, so I naturally don’t know these things. However, now the little monster thinks I am a guardian with a higher status than him, so he can only answer humbly. I didn’t care about his doubts and directly ordered: “Take me to the treasure tree king.”

"But I am just a low-level Buddha?"

Low-level inferior Buddha? What is his identity? Race? or position? Although I really want to know the answer, it is really inconvenient for me to ask for the identity I am pretending to be, so I can only hold it back first.

"If you let me lead the way, you will lead the way."

"But……?"

"Do you want to die?"

Under my threat, the little monster finally surrendered, but he looked obviously unwilling to go over and walked slowly. After my repeated urging, he finally brought me to his destination. In fact, the so-called Treasure Tree King is not far from this cave group, just in a valley behind the mountain, but the environment here is really scary. The lava flowing out of the nearby crater all flowed down the sanks on the mountain to the valley, and then gathered in the middle of the valley into a thick smoke and turned out several times from time to time.

A red magma pool full of sulfur-smelling bubbles, and in the center of this magma pool there is a small island floating on it. There is a tree that looks like a banyan tree, but there is no green leaf on the tree. The tips of all branches are covered with leaves made of flames, which looks a bit like the evolutionary Fire Tree of Life. However, I was very sensitive to discover one of the unique features of this tree, that is, there are many huge transparent crystals like diamonds hanging at the tips of its branches. I don’t know what it is, but it just looks very beautiful.

"Sir, this is the forbidden area, and you can't move forward any more!"

"I understand." While saying this, I kicked the little monster into the lava river in front of me. With a squeak, I completely disappeared from the world without even having time to scream.

Looking at the big jewel-like tree in the distance, I regretted changing my body and coming in. The environment in this ghost place is really bad. The tree grew in the center of the lava lake. Now this body is not mine, and I can't control it to fly at all. This guy has no wings, so I don't know how to get over it. Even if I don't care about this body and have to go over, with the temperature of the lava, I guess this body should burn out if it takes less than two steps. I don't want to float over in the form of a soul. Even the soul will burn out under this high temperature.

I was worried about the lava, and suddenly I heard the sound of talking from behind. I quickly found a rock and hid. Soon I saw two Buddhists appearing trotting along the lake.

"Moro, do you think there is still hope for our Buddhism this time? Are the great gods on Brahma far more powerful than ours?"

Another guy said, "I originally thought we were going to finish this time, but that special ability called Zi Ri helped us a lot."

"How to say it?"

"Our Buddhist high-level gods and Buddhas have lost a lot of strength in China, and now they are not as good as Brahma. So this time, the Buddha has brought so many adventurers among the mortals to make up for their numbers. It's just that Zi Ri's special ability suppressed the divine power of both of us. In this way, there are not much difference between gods and Buddhas and mortals. In contrast, there are more people on our side, so we have a greater chance of winning."

"That's right!"

When I heard the conversation between them, I was stunned for a moment. In this way, I was helping the Buddhist sect this time. But anyway, Brahma has no positive relationship with us, and I don’t care whether the Buddhist sect dies from them, so I don’t worry about helping the Buddhist sect. What I care more about now is what these two guys suddenly ran back for. There seems to be nothing else nearby except the treasure tree king. Are they here to help Tathagata get treasures? So, do I have a chance to start from time to time?

After the two guys walked to the lake, one of them shouted at the big tree in the distance: "King of Treasure Tree, Buddha Tathagata asked us to get his corona golden ring, please do it for convenience."

The big tree over there did not speak, but suddenly surging in the lava. A huge object with a diameter of more than two meters suddenly emerged from below the lava and stood between the lake shore and the island in the middle of the lake. After all the lava on it slid down, I saw clearly that it was a tree root. I didn't expect that the roots of this tree were soaked in the lava lake. No wonder the branches were full of fire!
