“Is this right?” The old man murmured softly to himself as he looked at the Sanskrit words on the Heart Sutra, then he looked at the words in the translation book again. After he had confirmed the translation, he wrote down the translated words.
Feng Jiu, who was in s.p.a.ce, smiled lightly. Perhaps Sanskrit needed to be specially learned and translated for them. But for someone like her, an educated person from the twenty-first century, it wasn’t difficult for her to understand Sanskrit. Therefore, it was easy for her to change the words to confuse him without leaving any trace.
She withdrew her small ray of spirit intent and sat down in s.p.a.ce, then she took the scripture book at the side. Her eyes moved slightly.
It wasn’t that she had wanted to learn it secretly. It was just that when she forged a fake Heart Sutra, she had memorised all the words in the real Heart Sutra. After all, she couldn’t remove all the contents even if she forged a fake Heart Sutra, she could only mix up the content.
As for the meaning of the content of the Heart Sutra, she believed that the old man wouldn’t be able to translate it in a short period of time. Now that she had the Heart Sutra, but where could the Relic be hidden?
In all this time that she had been hiding here, she had only seen the old man take out the Heart Sutra, but never saw him take out the Relic.
She couldn’t leave yet, so she closed her eyes and practised in s.p.a.ce. Perhaps it was because she had already read the Heart Sutra, the contents of the Heart Sutra entered her mind subconsciously as she practised. Her breath also changed according to the content of the Heart Sutra.
She frowned slightly and opened her eyes slowly.
She had only read it once, and her mental cultivation technique surged during practice, her breath and skills began to s.h.i.+ft. Although there seemed to be no change, she knew that the Myriad Buddha mental cultivation technique was gradually replacing the mental cultivation technique that she practised, and the speed of her cultivation was also rapidly increasing.
However, she felt that something was wrong.
Her eyes fell on the Heart Sutra beside her and her eyebrows twisted slightly. A thought flashed across her clear eyes. Normally, Buddhist Heart Sutra required a peaceful and calm state of mind to practise. Overbearing and strong self-adjusting situations like this that tried to override other mental cultivation techniques didn’t usually happen.
However, when she was practising, even though she wasn’t thinking of the Heart Sutra, it still silently guided her to practise it’s technique.
“Master, what’s wrong?” Cloud Devouring came over and asked when he saw her reaction.
Feng Jiu glanced at it and said: “It’s nothing. It’s just that I think there is something strange about this Buddhist Heart Sutra.”
Old White came over as soon as it saw her talking and looked at the Heart Sutra, then asked: “What’s wrong with it? Is it fake?”
As it spoke, it remembered something and asked curiously: “Master, will the old man outside realise that the book you made with fire smoked croaker is fake?
“No.”
Feng Jiu smiled and said: “Except the content of the book, everything else about the book and the outside of the book is the same. He won’t be able to tell.” She picked up the Heart Sutra beside her and flipped through it casually. At the same time, she was wondering to herself why the Heart Sutra was so weird.
“Master, what’s so strange about the Heart Sutra?” Cloud Devouring asked.
Feng Jiu closed the Heart Sutra and said thoughtfully: “I don’t know if I’m mistaken, but I feel like this Buddhist Heart Sutra has a demonic nature. As long as you’ve read it, you will be affected by it and not be able to practise mental cultivation techniques freely.”
She told them to move away so that she could try again. However, she would still notice the slight changes if she didn’t pay attention, so she had to fully concentrate.
