Chapter 13: Amitabha Buddha’s Heart Mantra for Rebirth As June approaches, the sultry heat has begun to show up. Turn on the fan, and it will make a whirring sound to blow away the irritating air and atmosphere in the living room. "My name is Chinatsu Koike, please give me your guidance." Under the bright light, Koike Chinatsu finished making tea and greeted everyone very seriously. "Chinatsu-chan, are you a middle school student at Mingxiu Campus?" Horii Suzune recognized the school uniform that Koike Chinatsu was wearing. "Well, I'm in the third year of junior high school." Koike Chinatsu poured a cup of tea for the three unknown visitors in front of her, and her eyes swept over them one by one with nervousness and curiosity. The middle-aged man in the lead looked troubled and fidgety, looking up towards the second floor from time to time.
He should be coming for his mother. Obviously, he is one of the protagonists in the story just now. The other was a handsome young man with short black hair. He looked sturdy and strong, with lines of muscles bulging under his shirt. Asymmetrical to his body is his delicate and handsome face. He was always holding something that looked like a birdcage in his hand. The bird cage was wrapped in black gauze, making it difficult to see what it was, but it always attracted her eyes to look in that direction. The girl sitting next to me is a little taller than me, very pretty and has a good figure, just like a star on TV. She had never seen such a beautiful girl. Even though it was their first meeting, she felt close to him like a sister. "Which high school do you want to apply to in the future, Chinatsu-chan?" Horii Suzune brought up the topic with a smile. "I haven't thought about it yet." "What do you think of Shiraishi High School?" "That's a very good school. I may not be able to get in..." "I'm a freshman at Shiraishi High School. If you're interested in our school, I can help you." "really?" Horii Suzune quickly broke down Koike Chinatsu's defenses, and after chatting for a while, they exchanged phone numbers and LINE. The two figures gradually got closer, and when Koike Chinatsu was smiling, Horii Suzune quickly found out about their family from her. Mikio Koike's real name is Mikio Fukawa. She changed her name to Mikio Koike after she married Koike Chinatsu's father Kenichiro Koike. Kenichiro Koike died in a car accident 8 years ago. It was Miharu Koike who raised Chinatsu Koike over the years.
Chinatsu Koike has never been to her hometown in the countryside of Nagano, nor has she heard her mother mention it. Currently, Miaki Koike is working as an artist agent. She has several celebrities under her and earns a lot of money. In order to give Chinatsu Koike a good living and learning environment, I moved here from Shibuya three years ago. Lingyin didn't seem to hate the little girl. Does she really want me to find her a stepmother? Horii Yuji, who was sitting next to Hiramiya Chiya, sat up straight, with his hands restlessly placed on his thighs, clenching and unclenching them from time to time. About half an hour later, Koike Miho came down from the second floor. She had returned to her usual calm and capable self. Seeing that her daughter was chatting happily with Horii Suzune, she felt a little relieved. Miho Koike came and sat on the sofa, opposite Yuji Horii. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Although your story is touching, it is too hard to believe." Her distrust mainly came from Chiya Hiramiya, the young monk. He is really too young. It is hard to imagine that at his age, he has the ability to solve such supernatural incidents. Moreover, she had never heard of Weilian Ancient Temple. Horii Yuji's expression changed slightly, but he found it difficult to give a convincing reason. "Can you turn off the lights in the living room for a moment?" Pinggong Chiye, who had been silent all this time, smiled and spoke. "can." After Koike Miharu agreed, Koike Chinatsu got up from the sofa, walked to the wall and turned off the lights in the hall. Darkness enveloped the entire living room in an instant. Soon, a faint red light dyed the entire living room red. Pinggong Qianye pulled off the black gauze covering the soul-guiding lamp. The soul-guiding lamp ignited on its own without fire. With the help of the power of the soul-guiding lamp, the soul was like a red ball of light, emitting a light red glow all over its body. "Amitabha." Pinggong Qianye chanted the Buddha's name, which instantly calmed the minds of those present. "Om, Pai, Ma, Ta, Le, Hum!" "Amitabha Buddha's Heart Mantra for Rebirth in the Western Paradise", chanting this mantra often can eliminate all karmic obstacles, guarantee rebirth in the Western Paradise, and liberate dead sentient beings and people to be reborn in the Pure Land. The soul of Koike Mikio that had been away for thirty years was essentially dead, and it could only continue to exist in the world by relying on the Qingxuan Lantern and the Guiding Soul Lantern. After a little salvation, letting this soul return would make the integration process smoother. …mainly to appear professional.
If a soul that has been away for thirty years could instantly return with just a single finger, it would seem too monotonous and ordinary. The purpose of turning off the lights is the same, to always create a suitable atmosphere. If the lights were not turned off, the surroundings would be plunged into darkness, and Horii Suzune and others would not be able to see the soul emitting red light. Pinggong Qianye recited the "Amitabha Heart Mantra" three times before he blew a breath. The wisp of soul in the soul-guiding lamp floated out of the lamp and floated into the body of Koike Mixiang, who was already crying inexplicably, completing the missing corner of her soul. As the soul entered the body, the red light gradually dissipated and everything returned to normal. The living room was shrouded in darkness again. "Amitabha." "Donor, you can turn on the lights now." Pinggong Qianye clasped his hands together and a smile that brought joy to all living beings appeared on his face. "okay." Koike Chinatsu hesitated for a moment before turning on the lights in the living room again. His eyes involuntarily turned to Pinggong Qianye, curiosity and shock in his eyes. This monk is so handsome. The inexplicable thoughts in her mind made her cheeks slightly hot. She hurriedly suppressed the strangeness in her heart, lowered her head, and returned to sit on the sofa. “This time the presentation is good!” Horii Suzune secretly gave a thumbs up to Hiramiya Chiya for her performance tonight. "Master Liansheng, there won't be any problems, right?" Miho Koike closed her eyes, tears rolling down her cheeks. She didn't speak for a long time, which made Yuji Horii start to worry. "The soul is the carrier of memory. She is just accepting the memory that has been lost for thirty years." Only after Hiramiya Chiye comforted him did Horii Yuji feel relieved. On the opposite side, Koike Chinatsu looked at Hiramiya Chiya for a while, quietly pulled Horii Suzune's sleeve, and asked softly. Horii Suzune glanced at Hiramiya Chiya before answering Koike Chinatsu's question in the same weak voice. "Hiramiya-san and I are both freshmen at Shiraishi High School. He inherited his family's temple and is a high school student and a monk at the same time." "That's awesome." "Hiramiya-san is indeed amazing. I have never met a monk who can compare to him." Although the voices of Horii Suzune and Koike Chinatsu were very faint, Hiramiya Chiya's extraordinary hearing allowed him to hear their conversation clearly.
Time passes minute by minute. "I'm so sorry, I was rude." Gradually returning to normal from her past memories, Koike Miharu took the tissue from Koike Chinatsu and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Thank you very much... little master, for helping me find the missing soul." Koike Mihan looked at Ping Gong Qian Ye, stood up and bowed, "Thank you very much!" Pinggong Qianye sat on the sofa and accepted the greeting. "It's over now. I think I should go back." He had already thought of a title for the post, which would definitely bring a perfect end to this alternative reunion after thirty years. "It's really late." Horii Suzune also spoke. Koike Mikan didn't try to keep her too much. Before leaving, she just took a business card from Hiramiya Chiya and exchanged phone numbers with Horii Yuji. …… On the way home, Horii Yuji was still driving, while Horii Suzune and Hiramiya Chiya sat in the back seat. Horii Suzune rested her right hand on her thigh, her palm supporting her cheek, and looked at Horii Yuji who was driving in front of her, her eyes flickering. Although Koike Miaki concealed her emotions very well tonight, her inner excitement and joy could not be concealed. She must have had the same feeling as her father, of returning to her youth. Perhaps, at this time, she was already asking Chinatsu Koike whether she minded having two more family members. Horii Suzune sighed, turned her head and looked at Hiramiya Chiye who performed well tonight. Well, he is indeed handsome, no wonder Chinatsu-chan has been staring at him tonight. "Last time I went to the photography club to borrow some equipment, and their president said that something strange happened there recently. Are you interested in handling it?" Horii Suzune gently hooked the hair hanging by her ear with the index finger of her right hand. "Of course I am interested, but my time is tight." "Their president said that as long as you can help solve the problem, they will be responsible for all the promotional videos for your temple in the future." "Deal, I'll go to the photography club tomorrow!" (End of this chapter)
