Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1604 Buddha's eyes
The abbot stopped at this point, but anyone could sense that he was not calm at the moment.

"Hanging himself to death..." An image flashed across Jiang Cheng's mind. It was in the obscene merit hall. Huiqing stretched out her hand, took Monk Huicong's hand and placed it on her body.

Huiqing... is voluntary, and those women like Huiqing are also voluntary!
Jiang Cheng, who had figured this out, became short of breath, and suddenly began to understand those women, and this understanding made him feel terrified.

"It's miserable, a dozen lives are so gone. Since I became the abbot, I have never been so angry. I... I rushed out of the temple gate, found the village head sitting on the stone steps and smoking a pipe, and asked Why would he do that?"

"But do you know his answer?" The abbot let out a miserable laugh, "You should have guessed it, the village chief squinted his eyes and knocked on his cigarette pot on the sole of his shoe, saying that those stone girls hanged themselves, and It doesn't matter to him, those stone girls cried all night outside the door last night, and some of them were cursing before they hanged themselves, but they were not cursing their husbands, nor the village chief who sent them here, but us... we who are willing to die monk!"

"It is said that we monks who eat vegetarian food and recite Buddha have harmed them! It is false to say that all sentient beings are saved, it is false! Even poor stone girls like them don't want to cross, dare not cross, can't cross!"

"After the village chief finished speaking, he patted his butt and left. The corpses were not collected, because the stone girl was not buried in the village's cemetery. They thought it was bad luck. It is said that the ancestral grave of the family who buried the stone girl's body would be affected. There will also be no males to carry on the family line, and there will even be no offspring."

The abbot's tone became more and more fierce when he said this, "I couldn't see it, so after the villagers all went down the mountain, I sent the disciples of this temple to untie the bodies of the stone girls, then found a place, and chose a good day. We plan to bury them."

"But... but who knows, on the day of the burial, not long after the body was buried, and before our rituals were finished, many people came here."

"They're all women from the village. I don't know where they got the news. The big girls and the young wives from every family came. They were aggressive and brought all kinds of farm tools. They pushed them to the tombstone when they came up, and then started cursing. Digging up the dead bodies."

"Do you know what they said?" The abbot took a deep breath, "They are cursing, scolding us monks and dogs for meddling with rats, these stone girls deserve to die, they were condemned by God for committing crimes in their previous lives, such people must not It’s safe to be buried in the ground, and the corpse must be dragged out, otherwise it will hinder their luck, what will happen if they can’t have children? There are still many people who are not married.”

"My disciples are pure in nature, so they knelt down to them and said absolutely not, these people are hard-working people, why do women make things difficult for women?"

"Hehe, but it's useless. These women hooked the corpse with a rope and dragged it to the edge of the cliff and threw it down. They said that we would not find it this way. There are wolves under the cliff. Even if we found it, it would only be a few rotten bones."

"My apprentice knelt on the edge of the cliff for a whole night. He was carried back the next day and got seriously ill. When he was most ill, he held my hand and asked me in a daze. He asked me Didn't we do something wrong? If we had opened the door and let those stone girls in, wouldn't... no one would have died?"

"I told him not to think about it and recover from his illness, but I didn't expect that that incident would affect him so much. After he recovered from his illness, it would be like a different person."

The abbot sighed with difficulty, "Although my apprentice is young, he is extremely talented. There are almost no opponents in the temple's debating scriptures, but who would have thought, who would have thought of him...he actually..."

"He has changed. He no longer listens to me like that. He sneaks out every day and doesn't meditate in front of the Buddha. At first I only thought of him as a child, and I didn't restrict him too much. But later, there was something about him. There are more and more rumors, and they are getting more and more excessive."

"At first it was stealing wine and drinking, then eating meat, and finally... finally it even turned into..." The abbot paused, and finally sighed after a while, "One night, when I was meditating, suddenly some disciples panicked Zhang's ran in and told me loudly that it was impossible, that Huicong had been tied up, and a group of people escorted him outside the gate of the temple."

"When I rushed outside the gate of the temple, I saw that Huicong had been tightly bound and had injuries all over his body. It was obvious that he had been severely beaten."

"But before I could ask a question, I saw a man rushing up aggressively. Only then did I realize that there were two women who were treated the same as Huicong. The women were not very old, and they were stripped naked and tied to wooden donkeys. Just like that, he was carried up the mountain."

"It was only later that I found out that it was Huicong who broke the sex ring and was caught with those two women at the foot of the mountain, and the angry man was the husband of one of the women."

"This kind of thing has completely lost the face and reputation of our temple. We interceded and took out some money to save Huicong. I was worried that the two women would be soaked in pig cages when they went back. I didn't The solution is to find a few trustworthy lay disciples, send them down the mountain overnight, and send them to a remote and unfamiliar village, leave some money, and force them to live incognito.”

"When I returned to the temple, I was furious and broke the precept. I beat Huicong dozens of times with the cane, and I didn't give up until the disciples pulled him away crying."

"I hate it. I hate Huicong for ruining the monastery's century-old reputation. I hate it even more. I hate iron for being weak. Huicong was my most proud disciple."

"I don't know... I don't know why he became like this."

"But no matter how much you call or ask, Huicong refuses to say a word. He just looks at me and looks at me quietly. Under his gaze, I don't dare to call or ask again..." the abbot said There was actually fear here, "There is a sense of compassion in his eyes, that's... that's the eyes of a Buddha."

"Just two months later, those villagers came again. I thought they were here to trouble Huicong, but I was wrong. They came to thank Huicong. I have seen the man in charge, and it is one of the women. Husband, he brought a generous gift, and said beamingly that his woman had returned home, and she brought joy!"

"After he has worked hard all his life, he finally has one. He can't spend the rest of his life in a daze. He plans to build another house for a woman to live in. He also killed a sheep he raised to make up for the woman."

"The man took the wedding invitation and insisted on donating incense money to the temple."
