Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of the Poll Bureau's Unknown Record!Under the constant suppression of the imperial power, although most of the monks and nuns have returned to the vulgar, there are still some faithful followers of Buddhism who have fled to various places under the jurisdiction of Hou Zhou and continued to preach secretly.What's more, some monks and nuns have begun to rebuild temples in the deep mountains and old forests.At that time, in order to deal with these people, some weird punishments were also created, among which the capital punishment was the clock penalty.

Because during the Five Dynasties, the status of monks was superb, and there were very few penalties against monks such as monks and Taoism, and later weeks did not dare to do too much.At that time, the officials in charge of penalty came up with a capital punishment exclusively for monks and nuns.When destroying the instruments, a huge bronze bell was left as a torture tool.Afterwards, whenever monks and nuns who fled and refused to return to the vulgar were caught and escorted into Beijing, they were tied up, stuffed into the bronze bell, and beaten ninety-nine times with the bell hammer all around.The monks and nuns inside had been shaken to the blood and died in about fifty strokes.

Since the time of the bell penalty, until half a year later, Emperor Shizong Chai Rong died of illness. When this penalty was abolished, 1,019 monks and nuns had died under the bell.Soon after, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin usurped the world of the next week, and Buddhism prospered again.Song Taizu regarded this bronze bell as a big ominous thing and sent it to Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng Prefecture for storage.

Until the time of Song Zhenzong, the Tianzhu monk Xiao Keye preached to Kaifeng, the capital of the country, and lived in Daxiangguo Temple.I don’t know if it’s because the Buddha didn’t bless him. The monastery he lived in was flooded that afternoon. Fortunately, it was discovered early and the fire was not big, but in this way, the monastery couldn’t live in.Xiao Keye was temporarily arranged in the warehouse.

It was okay in the first half of the night, but finally something happened in the second half of the night.When Xiao Keye slept in a daze, he was awakened by a strange sound.When he opened his eyes, he almost didn't faint by the scene at the time. The warehouse where he was the only one was originally filled with countless people.

These people, both male and female, are in the same posture, kneeling on the ground with their hands folded, chanting words to a huge bronze bell in the corner of the warehouse.Looking at the back of these people, they are all dressed up as monks and nuns.Xiao Keye's Chinese dialect is still in its infancy. Although it is not clear what they are talking about, a few Buddha horns can be faintly heard.Xiao Keye's Taoism is still shallow, but just like this, he can also see that the monks and nuns who are kneeling on the ground are not alive.He can only watch, not even daring to show up.

Until the fish belly lit up outside the window, there was a bell ringing in the temple, and the monks and nuns all over the room disappeared instantly at the same time that Xiao Keye was stunned.Even if the sky was bright, Xiao Keye didn't dare to stay in this warehouse anymore.He rushed out of the storeroom in a few steps and ran to the Daxiong Hall before he was relieved and collapsed on the floor on the spot.

I heard that the treasury was making monk ghosts and scared the foreign monks. Several great monks from Xiangguo Temple also arrived.There were a few broken mouths, and the incident was brought up again.This incident also alarmed the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple.He personally took the monks in the temple to supervise the bronze bell for a hundred days, and at the same time suppressed the dead ghosts in the bronze bell.And also gave this bronze bell a name-the soul of the town.

After being overrun for a hundred days, Bronze Bell has never been haunted.Later, due to the chaos of the war, the soul-saving clock changed hands several times.Unexpectedly, when he appeared again, he would be on a ghost ship.Just now after Monk Xiao and the others arrived, they saw the origin of this soul-suppressing bell, and at the same time, they discovered that someone had added a new layer of prohibition on the bronze bell.It is this level of restriction that conceals the eyes of everyone on board.

After Monk Xiao finished speaking, I thought of another question: "Master Xiao, the eyes of all of us are covered. Why is Sun Dasheng not affected at all?"

This question made Monk Xiao catch his head and couldn't understand it. He looked at Fatty Sun and said: "Little Fatty, when you were with Xiao Lazi, did you encounter anything?"

Fatty Sun looked up and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I haven't encountered anything special... Lazi, can you help me think about it, what's the matter?" I also helped him remember. From getting on the ship to now, Fatty Sun has almost always acted with me. Even if what happened on the way, I can't be ignorant.It's just that Fatty Sun and I have been thinking about it, but we can't think of anything special.

"Counselor Xiao, I'll talk about things about the Great Sage if you have a chance, let's look at your eyes first." When Monk Xiao was talking about the origin of the Soul Rejuvenation Clock, Hao Wenming never said a word. He circled the Soul Rejuvenation Clock from a distance. His face became more and more solemn, "The opening is getting bigger and bigger, and it's lifeless. I didn't say that, I am afraid that the soul calming clock will not be able to support it for a while."

Director Hao said in a very serious tone. Just now, after patronizing and listening to Monk Xiao telling the origin of the soul-suppressing clock, he neglected the real clock.Upon reminding him, when he looked over again, a layer of purple-black mist floated out of the gap and enveloped the soul-suppressing clock.From my eyes, the soul calming clock has begun to tremble slightly, it seems that there is a powerful energy in the clock about to break the clock.

"Haotou, isn't this bell going to explode, right?" I said to Hao Wenming.Director Hao stared at the soul-suppressing clock, and replied: "It's not enough yet, but there is a gap in the soul-suppression clock, I'm afraid it won't be able to keep it for a while." After that, he turned his face to Monk Xiao and said, " Counselor Xiao, made a plan early. If something goes wrong with the soul-saving clock, no one can run away on this ship, whether it is a ghost or a man."

"Get out, I can't stay here...little fat guy, what's on your neck?" When Monk Xiao was halfway talking, he accidentally saw a white jade plate hanging from a red rope around Sun Dasheng's neck. Came out.This jade brand Xiao monk looked familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Monk Xiao couldn't remember the source of the jade medal, but I could see it clearly. I saw this jade medal not long ago and I kept it for a while.It was the piece that Wu Rendi gave to Shao Yiyi, but I remember that Shao Yiyi had already received the jade card. After only a few days, how did the jade card get into Fatty Sun's hands.

"A small card is not a good thing." Fatty Sun didn't mean to show the jade card, instead he tucked the jade card into his clothes.Venerable Xiao ignored this, and he left without anxiousness. He reached out to Fatty Sun and said, "Take it off and let me see."

Monk Xiao stretched out his hand, and Fatty Sun reluctantly took off the jade medallion, handed it to Monk Xiao, and said: "Master Xiao, just look at it, be careful, don't fall on the ground. What... …Return it to me after reading it."

Monk Xiao ignored Fat Sun, took Yu Pei in his hand and only glanced at him. His expression became a little stunned. He looked up at Fat Sun, as if he wanted to ask him some question, but finally resisted asking him.Just when Fatty Sun stretched out his hand to return the jade plaque, Monk Xiao holding the jade plaque in his hand, suddenly turned and walked quickly towards the soul-saving clock.

The death energy in the soul-suppressing clock was almost boiling, and not long ago, I saw a dead corpse with my own eyes.The soul-repairing clock was somewhat shadowy to Fatty Sun. He hesitated for a while, but he still did not dare to follow up. He could only watch Monk Xiao walking to the side of the soul-repairing clock, and hung the red rope with the jade card hanging on the soul-resurrection. Above the clock.

At the moment when the jade plaque was hung to the soul-saving clock, the purple-black mist that had enveloped the surface of the bronze clock began to slowly dissipate.The soul calming clock no longer trembles, and returns to normal.At this time, Hao Wenming and Po Jun also cautiously walked to the soul calming clock.Director Hao was also surprised when he saw the jade card. He raised his head and looked at Monk Xiao again. He didn't say a word, but gestured a "six" with his right hand.After Xiao Monk nodded slightly, he ignored Director Hao.

"Well, let's say that our heavenly eyes are all blinded. Just the little fat man, your heavenly eyes are okay, there must be a bit of a doorway inside. This small card can restrain the death in the soul town clock, who would have thought?" Monk Xiao Standing next to the Zhen Soul Clock, he didn't shy away from death, and smiled and said to Fatty Sun.

But Fatty Sun couldn't laugh. He said bitterly, "Master Xiao, can I still get my little jade card? The card is not mine. What if he comes to me in the future?"

"You let him pick it up by himself." Monk Xiao said with a smile, "Anyway, that person has great abilities, and he didn't pay attention to the soul-saving clock." Monk Xiao already knew the meaning of these words. The origin of the jade card.Fatty Sun gave a wry smile again, and he saw that the jade medal was probably not coming out.However, Fatty Sun was not sure whether the jade card could completely suppress the death of the soul-saving clock.

He changed the subject and said, "Master Xiao, Hao Tou, what do you do now? Should you continue to go down, or go up and wait for the director of Gao to come up for reinforcements?" After Fatty Sun finished speaking, Monk Xiao and Hao Wenming looked at each other. After a glance, Monk Xiao finally said, "I have already walked here, and it's not bad for the lower level. Let's go down and take a look, so as not to regret it."

When Monk Xiao said this, Fatty Sun suddenly showed his head in the pocket of Sun Fatty's shirt, and screamed at Monk Xiao, as if he was echoing his idea.This rare scene made Monk Xiao smile slightly.
