The objects above Wei Qinghe continued to fall, but they were all blocked by that layer of Buddhist light.
The Buddhist prayer beads hung above Wei Qinghe's head, and the Buddhist light rippled outwards like waves along with the scriptures.
Then came a handsome Buddhist monk with red lips and white teeth, his hands clasped together, walking on lotus blossoms with every step.
He had a golden flame mark on his forehead, and his body seemed to be covered with a layer of radiance, which made him look even more mysterious and noble.
Wherever he walked, a lotus flower with flowing Buddha light would appear, and the lotus flower would dissipate after he had walked about seven steps.
Wei Qinghe sensed the unusual Buddhist light around him and heard the ancient Buddhist chants, which seemed to be from the Bodhi Mountain when he heard Venerable Shichen chanting sutras.
Wei Qinghe had never truly engaged in Buddhist practice; his only contact with it was listening to Venerable Shichen chant sutras back then.
She performed this ritual to help the souls of countless stillborn children, partly out of compassion and partly out of a desire to try it out, but to her surprise, it was effective.
I don't know how much time passed, but all the stillborn babies in the entire secret room were successfully delivered to the afterlife, turning into specks of starlight that merged into the Buddha's light. The Buddha's light was so strong that it inspired awe and brought great benefits.
Meanwhile, a vast expanse of Buddha light appeared in Wei Qinghe's sea of consciousness—the golden light of merit!
"Amitabha!"
Wei Qinghe slowly turned her head, and what came into view was none other than Venerable Shichen, whom she had seen from afar many years ago.
"Venerable Shichen!"
The Venerable Shichen's appearance at this time suggests that he likely received the information from the jade slip from Feixian City.
"It's been many years since I last saw you, young friend. Your cultivation has improved considerably."
Wei Qinghe was surprised that Venerable Shichen actually remembered her.
She was indeed very young back then. If her grandfather hadn't taken her to Bodhi Mountain, she really wouldn't have had any contact with Buddhism.
However, even just hearing Venerable Shichen chanting scriptures and expounding the Tao from afar is very rewarding.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to steal the techniques from Bodhi Mountain. I just couldn't bear the situation today... so I wanted to try and see if I could do what Venerable Shichen did to help them pass on to the afterlife..."
It's really embarrassing to steal someone else's martial arts technique and then get caught red-handed while trying to use it.
Just as Wei Qinghe was racking her brains trying to figure out how to appease Venerable Shichen, Venerable Shichen's melodious voice rang out, "Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life. Young friend, you are only helping those innocent and countless living beings. Not only have you done nothing wrong, but it is also a great act of kindness with immense merit."
“Back then, you only listened to me chanting sutras from afar for a short while, yet you have achieved such attainments. You are truly gifted. If you do not mind, you may often discuss the Dharma with me.”
Wei Qinghe could hardly believe her ears. This number one Buddhist practitioner not only didn't blame her for stealing his teachings, but also invited her to discuss and preach the Dharma from time to time.
It's important to know that not just anyone could attend that Dharma assembly many years ago.
Although Venerable Shichen is not very old, he was born a Buddhist and has a high level of Buddhist knowledge since childhood. He has guided countless great masters out of their confusion.
Wei Qinghe felt as if a huge pie had fallen squarely on her head.
“If it is not too much trouble for you, Venerable One, I would be more than happy to do so.”
Venerable Shichen nodded slightly, his face showing no obvious expression, like a walking Buddha statue.
“That would be excellent. There will be a Dharma assembly at the Brahma Sound Sect in three months. You may accompany me then.”
Just then, a loud bang was heard.
It turned out that Venerable Shichen had only blocked the danger above, but the ground beneath his feet had suddenly collapsed.
Fortunately, both of them reacted quickly and were not hurt. Wei Qinghe even pulled **Fenfen into her arms with lightning speed.
The jade-like longsword beneath Wei Qinghe's feet gleamed, while the lotus flowers beneath Venerable Shichen's feet shimmered with light.
The deathly and ghostly energy that should have disappeared after the countless stillborn babies were exorcised surged out like a flash flood at this moment.
A sinister aura, in the form of a woman, burst forth from the collapsed area below.
"I'll kill you, I'll kill you."
"Hahaha..."
"Damn it, they all deserve to die..."
The female ghosts were dressed in matching red clothes, and each had a fist-sized blood hole in her left chest, making them look extremely ferocious and terrifying.
It's not hard to tell that their hearts were removed before they died.
Each of them exuded a thick ghostly aura, clearly indicating that they had been deliberately crafted.
Several female ghosts surrounded Venerable Shichen.
"What a handsome little monk! Come into your sister's arms, little monk, and I'll teach you some fun things."
Venerable Shichen held prayer beads in one hand and placed the other hand in front of his chest. His sculpted lips opened and closed, and scriptures continuously and rapidly flowed out in the form of Buddha's light.
Upon hearing his chanting, the female ghosts immediately burst into tears and wailed, and the bodies touched by the scriptures began to rot as if they had come into contact with sulfuric acid.
Wei Qinghe was also besieged by a group of crazy female ghosts. Their faces were ferocious and their blood-red fingernails were a foot long, as if they wanted to tear Wei Qinghe apart.
Seeing this, Venerable Shichen once again flung out the prayer beads in his hand.
Bright yellow talismans burst forth from Wei Qinghe's side like a shower of flowers, slamming into a group of female ghosts.
The power of a talisman is not as gentle as the light of Buddha; it will be blasted into dust upon contact.
Venerable Shichen was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting that Wei Qinghe, who was just a child when they first met many years ago, would be so brave.
The female ghosts on the periphery seemed to be startled and showed obvious signs of retreating. But suddenly a red light shot out from the hole below, and they seemed to be encouraged, or as if they had lost their last remaining rationality, they all rushed towards Wei Qinghe without regard for anything else.
The Buddhist prayer beads spun rapidly above Wei Qinghe, and layers of Buddhist light descended, causing the female ghosts to wail in agony.
