"So that's it!"
After enduring the old monk's bad breath that could kill someone, Sanzang finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.
It turned out that it had not rained in Chechi country for a long time, and the king believed in Buddhism.
Such a thing as believing in Buddhism,
Not unusual in Xiniu Hezhou!
but,
The fucking thing is about to happen!
The king spent a lot of gold and silver. This group of monks sang for three months. In addition to making the dry cracks in the ground twice as loud,
Not even a drop of horse urine appeared in the sky, let alone rain!
After spending money and suffering, the matter has not been accomplished!
Who wouldn't be annoyed by this?
But for the sake of the people of Chechi Kingdom, the king endured it and refused to talk to anyone. After enduring the scorching sun for three months, he
Continue to fool around with these monks,
In the end, I almost had to report to the underworld because of heat stroke!
Just when public dissatisfaction was boiling,
Suddenly three Taoists appeared. As soon as the Taoists appeared, they made a bet with the monks, saying that they could bring rain.
Of course the monk didn’t believe it!
result,
After a spell was cast, the originally cloudless sky suddenly became overcast with clouds, and as a Taoist shouted loudly, heavy rain poured down.
Watering those dry fields that have been hungry/thirsty for months!
This scene,
This really made the king overjoyed, but at the same time, it completely destroyed his belief in our Buddha, so he directly worshiped Taoism and suppressed Buddhism, suppressing these monks on the spot.
Thousands of monks in the Chechi Kingdom went from being the masters of superiors to being the prisoners that everyone screamed at in one night!
At this time,
The old monk looked at Tang San's burial and said bitterly: "Eminent monk, you said it won't rain. What does it have to do with me as a Buddha? Why do you want to demote the Buddha? How can a monk do such a dirty job?"
"The eminent monk does not know that in just over two months, three to five hundred monks have been beaten to death, or have committed suicide because they could not bear the torture!"
"The old monk just doesn't understand. If it doesn't rain, why should he punish the poor monk and others?!"
"yes!"
San Zang dodged the old monk's sneak attack and said with a crooked face: "That's not right. Why can it rain when a Taoist priest comes?"
"Well……"
The old monk was stunned after hearing this, then shrank his neck and said timidly: "Maybe, it's just a coincidence, right?"
Speaking of which,
The old monk regained his energy and clasped his hands together and said, "To cultivate Buddhism, one must have all four elements in vain. One must suffer in this life and enjoy blessings in the next. If it doesn't rain, maybe it's just a test that I, the Buddha, give to all living beings!"
→_→
Glancing at the pious old monk, Sanzang raised his eyebrows and said, "What about those who died because of the drought?"
The old monk immediately replied: "If you fail the test, it naturally means that you are not blessed enough. I, the Buddha, will allow you to reincarnate and rebuild your merits so that you can enter my Buddha's Paradise in the next life!"
"Eh... I don't know whether I should say that you are a master of Buddhism or that you have double standards!"
San Zan grinned, looked at the old monk with disgust and said:
"As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. If it doesn't rain, there won't be a good harvest. But the Buddha you talk about looks at the world coldly and allows those who just want to have a full stomach to starve to death!"
Speaking of which,
Tang Sanzian looked at the old monk's surprised, puzzled and shocked expression, and continued: "But you say they are not blessed enough? The poor monk wants to ask you, will you die if you don't touch a drop of water or eat a grain of rice for three months? ?”
"You want to say that the relationship with Buddha is deep and shallow? Are the monks who were beaten to death by Taoist priests and committed suicide not blessed enough? How could they enter the Sakyamuni Sect if they are not blessed enough?"
"You have been praying for rain for months. You have good food and plenty of food, but you have not asked for life-saving rain. This is the cause. Now you are being treated as prisoners and doing hard labor, this is the result!"
"Cause and effect all happen. You should suffer this hardship to pay off your debts for the previous causes, and pay for the lives of those who put their hope in you, but ended up starving to death or thirsting to death!"
"And for all of you, at least...they have not deprived you of food and water now!"
"Also, you said that practicing Buddhism is all in vain, but you have been complaining to the poor monks before, thinking that monks should not suffer such hardships. Where do you have the face to complain and complain like a hammer?"
Speaking of which,
San Zang came up to the pale old monk, covered his mouth, and said with a smile: "Originally, the poor monk wanted to save you, but now it seems there is no need to do anything extra!"
"In your words, this must be a test that I, the Buddha, will send to you!"
Subsequently,
San Buran stepped back three feet in one step, clasped his hands together and said loudly: "In that case, I, the poor monk here, wish you all the best to arrive in the Paradise of Paradise as soon as possible!"
boom!
When the old monk heard this, he was like a thunderbolt, and he was completely confused!
He stretched out his trembling hands covered with blood scabs, pointed at the three burials in front of him, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you, you... you are definitely not from my Buddhist sect, you must be an undercover agent sent by the Taoist priest!"
"Hahaha……"
Just when the old monk was so angry that he almost vomited blood, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the distance, accompanied by a gust of wind blowing yellow sand.
Three Taoists with extraordinary momentum suddenly descended from the sky and landed not far from the third burial. They looked at the third burial and burst into laughter!
After a while,
The tough-looking Taoist in the middle laughed and said, "If you weren't wearing cassock, I would definitely think that you are a member of my Taoist sect!"
The Taoist with a goatee on his left stroked his beard, squinted his eyes, and said in a high-pitched voice: "But what this monk said is right, I actually have a good impression of this monk!"
The long-faced Taoist on the right also laughed a few times and said, "There is indeed something different. He is not like those silly monks who only know how to chew scriptures. He understands the ways of the world!"
After saying that,
The faces of the three people changed at the same time, and the tiger-headed Taoist said with a cold face: "Even so, you hurt Pindao's disciple, Pindao still doesn't..."
boom!
Before the Taoist finished speaking,
A stick as thick as an adult's waist and as long as it was suddenly fell from the sky, directly smashing a big hole into the ground in front of the three of them.
The huge power turned into a strong wind, directly blowing the three Taoists whose expressions changed drastically, for more than a hundred meters!
"who?"
The three Taoists were shocked at the same time after landing. Then the sleeves of their goatee robes rolled up, and a strong wind suddenly blew away the dust.
The large pit several meters deep on the ground was revealed, as well as the three masters and disciples of San Burial behind the pit!
As for the old monk and the young monks nearby, they were scared away long ago!
Seeing three people buried in three places,
The tiger-headed Taoist among the Taoists had a fierce look in his eyes, and was about to get angry when the Taoist with a long face and a goatee pulled down his sleeves and motioned him to look at the big hole on the ground.
The next second,
Hutouhunao trembled violently, and his fierce eyes became much gentler, but he was still full of hostility towards Sanzang and others!
Looking behind the third burial,
The monkey looked like a smile but not a smile. After thinking about it for a long time, he calmly said to San Zang:
"Monk, the country has national laws and families have family rules. When you hurt a poor Taoist before, let the king put an end to it for you and me. How about that?!"
"Great kindness!"
After hearing this, San Zan said with a smile: "Please ask the three donors to lead the way for the poor monk!"
"please!"
The tiger-headed tiger-nao said, and with fierce eyes, he motioned for Master Sanzang and his disciples to go first, and the three of them followed behind!
on the way,
Carrying the saluting Zhu Bajie, he walked a few steps quickly and came to San Zang's side and asked: "Hey...Master, I will see the king later. Can we save those monks who have been demoted to coolies?"
→_→
San Zan glanced at Zhu Bajie and said with a cold face: "Disturbing someone's practice is like killing their parents. They are going to the Paradise of Paradise. How can I ruin their opportunities as a teacher?"
Hearing this,
The monkey on the side chuckled and said: "What Master said makes sense..."
At this time,
San Zang looked at the sky and said to himself: "I hope they can go in and take a look before I defeat the Buddha's Imprisonment Sutra and destroy the Paradise..."
