Chapter 129 Buddha(2/2)
You Tingjing's expression still had a hint of frivolity, she thought for a moment and said: "It's a bit tiring after all."
The abbot's smile grew stronger and he asked Ying Nianling again: "Donor Ying, do you think the food in the city is to your liking?"
Ying Nianling thought for a long time: "Well...it's still delicious, but not as delicious as Yunxi's!"
The abbot couldn't help laughing, and finally looked at Bai Qing in Yun Xi's arms: "Donor Bai, what do you think of this clock?"
Bai Qing lay weakly in Yun Xi's arms. When he heard the abbot's question, he raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at the ancient clock, and then narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, it's been a long time, but it's just too old. You still have to learn from our snow fox clan when it comes to maintaining your monk tower."
"Hahahaha!"
The abbot laughed a few times this time and said: "Yes, the old monk also feels that this bell is old, just like the old monk himself, just like the Buddha City."
He walked towards the altar and said, "The donors must have come here for the Buddha."
Yun Xi took a step forward: "Abbott you, I've informed you."
The abbot smiled and said to them: "Come up here."
The three of them walked directly to the altar without any ink marks.
This altar is almost the same as the altar they saw on the third floor. The only difference other than the size is that where the four stone pillars were originally placed, there is a Buddha statue here.
This Buddha statue is not big, only one person tall. The bottom is inlaid with a square stone. There are four concave marks on the four sides of the square stone.
The size and shape of this mark completely coincide with the jade pendants obtained by the four of them.
The abbot said: "Put the tokens you have earned into the stone carvings, and then you can see the Buddha again. But..."
Seeing the abbot pause, Yun Xi and others immediately stopped the urge to put on the jade pendants. Yun Xi asked: "Just what?"
The abbot said: "But once you choose to meet the Buddha, it means you have to take over this city."
"Take over this city?"
Several people's expressions changed, not from rejection, but from confusion and surprise: "Why is this?"
Xiang Xiang smiled kindly and explained: "Buddha City is the city of Buddha. If you want to inherit the mantle of Buddha, you must also take over the city of Buddha. Buddha City is getting old, and so am I. It is true that it is also the city of Buddha."
It’s time to change to some young, different city lords.”
They suddenly understood the meaning of the questions the abbot asked them before.
Regardless of his own fatigue, Bai Qing raised his head from Yun Xi's arms. For such an important event, several people exchanged glances with each other.
It is impossible to avoid the inheritance of the gods, but it is also huge to shoulder the responsibility of protecting a city and the millions of people in it.
This is a choice that requires careful decision.
The white clouds moved lightly, the air at the top of the tower was very thin, and the wind was colder. The tips of Yun Xi's hair were blown up, and her beautiful face overshadowed the sky.
She took a few steps forward and put the jade pendant in her hand into the stone carving.
Ying Nianling followed closely behind and placed her jade pendant in a stone carving.
Bai Qing jumped out of Yun Xi's arms, holding the jade pendant in her little paws, and stuffed it into the stone carving unsteadily.
You Ting smiled softly: "Being the city lord with Xiao Yunxi makes me happy just thinking about it~"
So her jade pendant was placed on the last stone carving.
The four jade pendants returned to their places, the stones under the Buddha statue trembled slightly, and the jade pendants emitted bright spiritual light, gradually converging on the Buddha statue.
The light flows very slowly, constantly interweaving on the Buddha statue, and golden cracks appear in every place they pass.
The Buddha statue trembled, and with a crisp sound, it broke into pieces.
Including the abbot, the four people and one fox on the top of the tower all focused their attention on the broken Buddha statue.
When the fragments fell to the ground, golden light appeared in front of them. It was a golden light that was more dazzling than the sun. It was not dazzling and exuded a sacred aura.
In the golden light, a figure wearing a golden cassock slowly emerged. This was a monk who looked very young. He was dressed in noble clothes, with handsome facial features, a cinnabar mole between his eyebrows, his feet were red, and his body was
Translucent form appears.
He walked out of the golden light, fell down in one step, and stopped in front of Yun Xi and others.
The young monk slowly opened his eyes, and saw Yun Xi and others at the first glance. He retracted his gaze, looked around the world, and then looked at Yun Xi and the others again.
"Were you the ones who woke me up?"
Yun Xi, three people and one fox immediately saluted: "Juniors have seen senior Buddha!"
The abbot knelt down directly and worshiped the spirit body: "The 21775th abbot of the Buddhist temple, An Gu, pays homage to the Buddha!"
The young monk was silent for a moment, and then with a smile on his face: "Buddha... I haven't heard this name for a long time. Is this Buddha City?"
The abbot said: "Lord Buddha, this is the Buddha City."
When the Buddha heard the words, he turned around, stepped on the void, and walked outside the complex of the pagoda.
He lowered his head and overlooked the entire Buddha City. He did this for only half a moment before he softly sighed: "This city has not changed."
He asked: "How many years have passed since the Buddha City was moved to this place?"
The abbot replied: "One thousand, eighty-eight thousand, seven hundred and twenty-six years have passed."
"More than ten million years have passed... No wonder it's like this..."
He muttered to himself, then turned around and looked at Yun Xi and others who followed him to the guardrail.
