The initial part of the scripture seemed normal, with theories guiding people towards goodness and compassion, but as it went on, the content became more biased and eerie, introducing some terrifying punishments.
For instance, those who slandered the Buddha would have their tongues cut out, those who did not serve Buddha with sincerity would have their hearts gouged out by the Guardian God in the dead of night, and there were illustrations of people with severed limbs.
The images were brutal and bloody, and even through the pages, Yang Xiao seemed to smell the scent of blood from the illustrations.
The chanting of the others gradually became sparse; Yang Xiao glanced sideways and saw that Musa and Datou among others also wore an expression of solemnity, clearly seeing similar contents in their scriptures.
The violent methods instinctively reminded Yang Xiao of the group of Black Lamas entrenched in Tibet, and the Black Buddha Mother closely associated with them.
