The current population density in India is not as high as that in China, and in some places it is even difficult to see people. It is normal that there is no one at the Tirupati Bajra Temple.
Xue Wenli shook his head and explained: "Tirupati Bajra Temple is one of the most prosperous temples and has one of the largest number of believers. I don't know how much money the believers donate every year. There are so few people there now. Rare."
The two entered the Tirupati Bajra Temple. There were not many monks in the temple. Chu Xiang went straight into the Mahavira Hall. There were monks chanting sutras and chanting Buddha in the main hall. Xue Wenli stepped forward to salute and said that he wanted to visit Padmasambhava.
After some communication that Chu Xiang couldn't understand at all, a monk took the two of them to the back of the main hall, passed through many courtyards, and came to a small courtyard. The monk said something inside, and then the door opened, and a An old monk with white beard and hair came out.
"He is Padmasambhava." Xue Wenli said to Chu Xiang.
A very ordinary old monk. Except for his beard and hair, he is no different from ordinary monks. He is even less energetic than ordinary monks.
The monk who led the way put his hands together in salute and exited the small courtyard. The old monk put his hands together to Chu Xiang and gestured to sit down.
The two sat down on the stone bench under the bodhi tree in the courtyard. The old monk said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."
After hearing what Xue Wenli translated, Chu Xiang became even more confused. Puding was waiting for him, the wandering monks from Huxue Temple were waiting for him, and Lotus Flower was also waiting for him. Are they really waiting for him, waiting for someone else, or if they have other plans.
"How are you sure it's me you're waiting for?" Chu Xiang said.
Xue Wenli translated the words to the old monk truthfully.
"Because you are you." The old monk said.
It is me and not me, my true self, which one is me, which one is he waiting for.
"I'm not just me." Chu Xiang said.
"My Buddha has revealed that it's you, or it's not just you, it's all you." The old monk said.
"Did your Buddha tell you what you should do?" Chu Xiang said.
"My Buddha told me to guide you to where you should go." The old monk said.
"Do I need guidance from others on where I should or should not go?" Chu Xiang sneered.
"You have doubts in your heart and need to find answers. My Buddha's guidance is the answer you are looking for." The old monk said.
Chu Xiang really wanted to find the answer. This doubt was not given to him by Puding, or the wandering monks of Tiger Cave Temple, or Padmasambhava. This doubt came from the tendency of the Southeast Asian countries, the tendency to the north.
Whether it is Padmasambhava, Puding, or the wandering monks of Tiger Cave Temple, they do not have such great power to influence several countries, and this trend is common to several countries, not even just a few, but more than a dozen. tens of.
"Do you have the answer I'm looking for?" Chu Xiang said.
"No, not here, in the west." The old monk said.
It's the west again, and further west is the end of Asia, almost to Africa. Is there something special there that can give Chu Xiang the answer he wants.
"Are you Padmasambhava?" Chu Xiang said.
A nonsensical question, Xue Wenli was puzzled as to why Chu Xiang asked such a meaningless question, but he still translated it truthfully.
"I am." said the old monk.
"I can't feel any power from you that transcends your body." Chu Xiang said.
"I don't practice, I only feel the Buddha's instructions." Padmasambhava said.
"How do you feel the instructions of the Buddha?" Chu Xiang asked, how can you feel the Sacred Heart of Heaven without practicing.
"I am with the Buddha under the bodhi tree." Padmasambhava said.
The two of them were sitting under the Bodhi tree. They were under the Bodhi tree with the Buddha, and they had the same understanding as the Buddha.
If this sentence were said by ordinary monks, it would undoubtedly be extremely arrogant and ignorant, but when said by Padmasambhava, it makes people feel somewhat credible.
Chu Xiang didn't know what kind of existence Sakyamuni was. Based on his inference, he was probably a guy with unknown origins like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
"Sakyamuni cannot guide me." Chu Xiang said.
"He may not be able to guide you, but his mantle is guiding thousands of sentient beings." Padmasambhava said.
The way of all living beings is Chu Xiang's way, and guiding all living beings is guiding Chu Xiang. Padmasambhava may not know Chu Xiang's way, but he has said the key.
When the thoughts of all sentient beings gather together, they are God, Buddha, and the Buddha’s instructions.
"What kind of person is Sakyamuni?" Chu Xiang asked.
"A person who has achieved Bodhi under the Bodhi tree is, in your words, a person who has achieved enlightenment." Padmasambhava said.
"Is he really a person who attained enlightenment under the bodhi tree, or someone who came with the enlightenment?" Chu Xiang said.
Of course, there are many intelligent and enlightened people in thousands of years of history, but Chu Xiang does not think Sakyamuni is this kind of person. His Buddha is too big to be created by one person. Compared with Li Er, compared with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Much bigger.
In Chu Xiang's view, Sakyamuni's Buddha is already there. He is just a communicator who attracts believers in various ways, just like the hundreds of schools of thought in China, which originated from Kunlun and developed in Kyushu, not the founder.
Lianhuasheng did not answer Chu Xiang's question immediately. After a pause, he said, "I don't know."
I don’t know, I’m still unsure, I have doubts, but I still dare not say anything.
Liansheng didn't have the answer, but the information revealed by these three words was enough, enough for Chu Xiang to get what he wanted to know.
Padmasambhava is very honest. If he were not honest, he would not say this. He is honest, and his previous words have credibility.
"You are the person closest to him in the world today. You are the only one who can find the truth." Chu Xiang said.
This is a seed, a seed planted in the heart of Padmasambhava.
"I don't want to find the truth." Lianhuasheng said.
"The answer may not be satisfactory, but this answer may be very important." Chu Xiang said.
Chu Xiang didn't know why it was important. He just had a feeling that whether it was the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, or people like Sakyamuni and Jesus, they might be very important.
This feeling was the information fed back to him by heaven and earth. Chu Xiang suddenly realized that the so-called avenue of heaven and earth was the will of the earth, the consciousness of Gaia, which was omnipresent. According to this inference, the information fed back by Gaia's consciousness should be to protect the earth, or to protect humans, because humans are also part of the earth, like all other living things.
Padmasambhava did not speak, and Chu Xiang left the Tirupati Bajra Temple.
After leaving the temple, Xue Wenli said: "Chief, I received a letter from the general."
"What did you say?" Chu Xiang asked.
If it wasn't something important, Li Tianxing probably wouldn't have sent the letter. It seemed like the situation had changed.
The infrastructure in India was basically damaged. When they arrived in India, Chu Xiang's mobile phone had no signal. Xue Wenli brought a full set of communication equipment and could contact Li Tianxing. Only the communication equipment brought by Xue Wenli could receive domestic signals.
"Two inspection teams were sent from above, one from the general and one from Khunjeela. The general asked us to meet them at Bandar Abbas Port in three days." Xue Wenli said.
"What to inspect? Where to inspect?" Chu Xiang asked.
"I don't know, the general didn't say anything." Xue Wenli said.
The emergence of people from Hongqila and Rize did not explain the situation. Chu Xiang knew that it was probably related to the various countries wanting to enter China, the prophecies of the South Asian countries, and the fact that Puding, Lianhuasheng and others pointed him towards West's purpose.
It seems that the truth is about to be revealed. None of the parties has said it clearly, but Chu Xiang is a little confused.
"Where is Abbas?" Chu Xiang asked.
"Iran's Strait of Hormuz." Xue Wenli said.
"Meeting at the Strait of Hormuz in Iran, our destination is obviously further west. The direct west of Tirupati Bajra Temple is in Yemen. It seems that our destination should be near Yemen." Chu Xiangdao .
"Yemen? Is there anything special in Yemen?" Xue Wenli asked.
"Gulf of Aden." Chu Xiang said.
Chu Xiang only knew this possibility, otherwise the countries in the Middle East and Southwest Asia would not have tried their best to enter China, nor would they have reached an agreement with China to allow China to send two inspection teams to investigate. It seems that the legendary wormhole in the Gulf of Aden might It's not groundless, things may be far beyond ordinary people's expectations, and it may be a greater threat than Kunlun.
"Isn't the Gulf of Aden a place where our warships go to escort?" Xue Wenli said.
"Do the few Somali pirates need the troops of the five permanent members to escort them? How can the United States let China participate in such international affairs so easily? Let Chinese warships sail in other countries' waters and affect the hegemony of the United States? It is not shooting itself in the foot. It not only reduces the international status of the United States, but also increases China's status." Chu Xiangdao.
"This is indeed confusing." Xue Wenli said.
"Do you speak Iranian?" Chu Xiang asked.
"No, West Asian languages and South Asian languages are completely different types." Xue Wenli said with some shame.
It seems that the west that Puding, the monk from Huxue Temple, and Padmasambhava are referring to is probably the wormhole in the Gulf of Aden. What scares them is the people from other worlds who enter the earth through the wormhole, so whether it is the countries in West and South Asia , all want to enter China for refuge.
Chu Xiang took Xue Wenli to ride in the clouds and fog to Pakistan. After crossing the Indus River, the clouds descended and they walked instead.
Xue Wenli said that this place is only about a thousand kilometers away from Bandar Abbas Port, which is just the right place for him to exercise.
The two of them walked all the way, the speed was not very fast, about thirty kilometers an hour. Xue Wenli's Danjin level cultivation level, there was no pressure at all at this speed, and he ran three to four hundred kilometers in a hurry, but he didn't expect that Chu Xiang had no intention of stopping to rest and kept walking. He could only eat while running. Fortunately, he was not a picky eater. He drank blood without any pressure and grabbed various animals and put them into his stomach.
After Xue Wenli ran for two days, the two arrived at Bandar Abbas. Bandar Abbas Port had been submerged by sea water. It had not yet completely emerged from the sea, and most of the port was still under sea water.
The port is not big, Chu Xiang opened his mind, and everything was under his eyes.
Before the two inspection teams from China arrived, Chu Xiang saw an unexpected person, a person who in Chu Xiang's opinion was unlikely to appear here.
