Sure enough, Tathagata encountered something unsatisfactory in life.
And this matter is also related to Maitreya.
"That's Fatty, right? Buddha, tell me what's going on. Brother, I'll make the decision for you." Lin Xian put his hand on Tathagata's shoulder with a righteous look on his face.
Others around him were also listening and were very quiet.
After a while, Tathagata revealed all his thoughts.
Only then did Lin Xian realize that Tathagata was no longer the leader of Lingshan. Lingshan had changed its leadership since the disaster at Shituoling.
Now the one who calls the shots in Lingshan is Maitreya Buddha.
Lin Xian knew that if Ran Deng was stupid and Tathagata stepped down, the most suitable candidate would be Maitreya.
After Maitreya came to power, he made things difficult for Tathagata everywhere, and became even more arbitrary and cruel.
Just imagine, what would it be like if a cruel and unkind Buddha was appointed on Lingshan Mountain? Is Lingshan still Lingshan? What is it like to experience the Buddhas in Lingshan Mountain?
No wonder Tathagata would come to the lower world for no reason and find himself.
It shows that Tathagata has no way out.
"So that's it. Buddha, don't be too sad. They abandoned you. It's their loss. Talents like you should have their own family background and shouldn't be bound by them." Lin Xian said.
Tathagata asked: "What do you think of this?"
Lin Xian looked around, then approached Tathagata and whispered: "To be honest with Buddha, brother, I actually have a good idea."
"explain."
"After being conferred as a god, didn't Taoist Ancestor have an order that saints should not interfere with the affairs of the three realms, and they could not visit the three realms in person? Is this true?"
Tathagata nodded, "Yes, Daozu did give such an order back then."
Lin Xian's eyes flickered.
Saints are all in the outer world and rarely interfere with matters in the three realms. The strongest combat power in the three realms is only the pinnacle of quasi-sage.
Lin Xian pondered for a moment and continued: "Saints cannot enter the Three Realms. If that is the case, then Sage Zhunti and Sage Jieyin abandoned Buddha. Why didn't Buddha take those who supported you and establish another portal in the Three Realms?"
"What?" Tathagata was suddenly startled.
Lin Xian's method turned out to be to make him rebel.
Speaking of which, the current situation in Lingshan is very embarrassing.
Although Maitreya Buddha is the master of Lingshan, he is actually just a puppet of the saint above. The saint asked him to go west, but he did not dare to go east.
To put it bluntly, Lingshan is just a tool for the two saints to earn merit.
It is precisely because of the control of saints that Lingshan cannot develop.
The Tathagata knows all this.
What would happen if there were no saints controlling Lingshan and the highest authority was only Buddha?
"Buddha, you might as well think about it. Lingshan is a sacred and inviolable place among the people, but in fact it is a smog. If one day this hypocritical mask is torn off, then Buddha you will have even more nowhere to go."
Lin Xian said.
Western religions established Buddhism in order to earn merit.
However, the establishment of Buddhism did not happen overnight. In the early days, it was only the Tathagata who supported it, and it developed step by step, and this is how Lingshan Buddhist Kingdom became today.
It can be said that every plant and tree in Lingshan today is stained with the sweat that Tathagata once shed.
"Lingshan was created by the Buddha himself, how could it be reduced to a tool of a saint?"
Lin Xian suddenly remembered his past life. The game that a certain team worked hard to produce turned out to be a money-making tool for a certain chaebol. It could not be played without krypton gold.
In the same way, the same is true for Lingshan.
After listening to Lin Xian's words, Tathagata's eyes flashed with light.
It must be said that Lin Xian's words had an enlightening effect on him.
Bringing his cronies with him, setting up a new sect, and rebuilding a Buddhist sect that is not controlled by saints. Why didn't he think of this method?
Anyway, they are no longer favored, so why not start a new one and stop looking at their faces from now on? You are God, why not?
"I will think about this matter carefully." Tathagata suddenly drank a sip of wine and looked at Lin Xian solemnly, with a long-lost smile on his face, "I didn't expect that I can talk to you like this in Tianpeng. , It’s really hard to find a confidant.”
Lin Xian also smiled slightly and said nothing. He knew that he had captured Tathagata.
"I am happy today, come and have a few more drinks." Tathagata was in a good mood at this time.
In this way, Tathagata got drunk and slept for a whole day and night before waking up.
Thinking of what he had talked with Lin Xian before, Tathagata felt more and more energetic, so he said goodbye to the group of pilgrims and flew straight to the west.
Lin Xian also led everyone on the road.
If Tathagata is captured this time, huge changes will definitely happen to Lingshan Mountain next.
The two saints in the West founded Buddhism and planned a journey to the west to repay the cause and effect of heaven. If Lingshan was disintegrated from now on, those two saints would still plan a futile journey to the west.
Lin Xian suddenly felt that he seemed to be a lot smarter.
Blindly refusing to accept the disaster will not change the overall situation.
Only by hitting the snake seven inches and letting the spiritual mountain disintegrate can the fundamental problem be solved.
Just when a group of pilgrims were about to arrive at Zhujie Mountain.
Tathagata suddenly rushed back from Lingshan Mountain.
"Buddha, didn't you leave? Why are you back again?" Lin Xian asked in confusion.
Tathagata said with a serious look: "I just returned to Lingshan and heard a piece of news, so I came here to tell you."
Lin Xian guessed that this matter was not trivial, so he immediately blocked Tianji.
"I just received a piece of news from Fatty Mi, saying that the two saints above no longer have any hope for this journey to the west, and have already gone to Zixiao Palace to ask for instructions from Tao Ancestor." Tathagata said.
Lin Xian's eyes flickered, "That means that if we continue to move forward now, it doesn't mean much to them anymore, right?"
At this moment, Lin Xian had already made a guess.
Traveling all the way west, there are only a handful of disasters that can be accomplished.
The end of the journey to the west does not mean the end of the journey to the west. If the saint cannot accumulate merit, the calamity will never end.
Sure enough, the two saints Zhunti and Jieying went to Zixiao Palace to ask Taozu for instructions. It was obvious that they wanted to reorganize the journey to the west, so going to Lingshan by themselves would be a disaster.
Tathagata looked at Lin Xian and continued: "Now, Maitreya has given the sage's decree and set a trap in Daleiyin Temple, waiting for you to go."
"Thank you Lord Buddha for the message."
There was a sneer on Tathagata's lips, everything was as he had guessed.
Going to Lingshan now is definitely a disaster.
What Lin Xian didn't expect was that Tathagata Buddha would come in person to inform him.
This shows that my relationship with him is going well.
"Nowadays, there are too many changes in Lingshan. Buddha must make plans for himself as soon as possible. Since Maitreya holds the power of Lingshan, it will be difficult for you, Buddha, to come back to power in the future." Lin Xian also said solemnly.
Tathagata nodded.
After saying that, he flew away on the clouds.
Lin Xian narrowed his eyes and looked quietly at the direction Tathagata was leaving.
The layout of Journey to the West failed, and Zhunti and Jieyin could not wait to find Taoist Hongjun.
This means that these two saints have to give themselves an ultimatum.
Once you go to Lingshan, you will go deep into a trap.
Unknowingly, I had reached the point where I was breaking up with them.
