Taking into account the situation over the Wuji Kingdom, Manjusri knew that it was time for him to appear.
Manjusri was not stupid. He knew that with Tang Sanzang's current situation, the quasi-saint-level Buddha in his Buddhist sect must be watching.
"You must not show off your flaws."
With a murmur in his heart, Manjusri flew over.
Before the people passed by, Manjusri had already shouted: "Holy Monk, please be merciful."
Hearing the sound, Tang Sanzang pressed his hand against the void and stood up floatingly.
"It turns out to be Manjushri Bodhisattva. Why are you here?"
Tang Sanzang asked knowingly, he already knew everything from Yang Xiao.
Manjusri said: "I came here for my mount, the green lion, and let it go."
"Let it go, let it go, it must be let go. The Bodhisattva is the person I admire most, Tang Sanzang. My respect for the Bodhisattva is like the rolling river, which can flow from the heaven to the Buddha. The Bodhisattva is my guiding light."
"In my heart, Bodhisattva is that day, that place, that infinite light that illuminates the world. When I see the face of Bodhisattva, I have the urge to bow down and worship."
Looking at Manjusri with a smile, Tang Sanzang was talking nonsense seriously.
In the bookstore, Yang Xiao covered his forehead, what are you talking about!
These words were not taught by Yang Xiao, but Tang Sanzang learned them from someone unknown.
Yang Xiao, who couldn't laugh or cry, really didn't know what to say, but he had to admit that Tang Sanzang did a good job.
As long as he sets the stage first, and after a while Manjusri teaches him, he can pretend to be repentant and sincerely admit his mistakes.
In this way, Tathagata will definitely think highly of Manjusri and be grateful to Manjusri.
For no other reason than because Manjusri could suppress Tang Sanzang, one would think highly of Manjusri.
Because now, even Tathagata cannot suppress Tang Sanzang.
While talking, Tang Sanzang let go of the green lion. The freed green lion ran to Manjusri with a "chirp".
He was really scared of being beaten just now. He found that Tang Sanzang was not only strong, but he also didn't attack lightly or hard. Now several bones in his body were cracked.
"Okay, holy monk, although this Bodhisattva knows that he is great, it is not good to praise him too much. Enough is enough."
Listening to Tang Sanzang's words, Manjusri twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and interrupted.
If the monk continued to brag like this, would Buddha be jealous and want to kill him?
And what he said was too ridiculous. I felt so ashamed and so embarrassed.
"Okay, if the Bodhisattva won't let you talk, then I won't talk."
Tang Sanzang nodded happily, very well-behaved, not at all as crazy as he was before when he was fighting against the saints.
In the void in the distance, Tathagata did not leave, and kept hiding to watch the situation in the Wuji Kingdom.
When he saw Tang Sanzang's attitude towards Manjusri, Tathagata almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
It would be fine if Tang Sanzang had always been crazy, but why did he respect Manjusri so much?
"Tang Sanzang, on the way here, I heard that you were disrespectful to Buddha before. Is this true?"
At this time, Manjusri spoke according to what Yang Xiao taught him.
This move was naturally intended to make Tang Sanzang pretend to admit his mistake, so that Manjusri could win the favor of the Tathagata.
"Hui Bodhisattva, it has indeed happened. The Buddha competed with his disciples. The disciples felt that he was not good enough and thought he could replace him. Otherwise, the Bodhisattva helped the disciples reach the spiritual mountain, and then the disciples became Buddha..."
Tang Sanzang replied, his face full of excitement.
This is not just acting, this monk really has this idea in his heart.
The unexpected Tathagata in the distance almost spurted out another mouthful of blood.
This Buddha hasn't left yet. He hasn't left yet. He said this openly in front of this Buddha. What do you want to do, Tang Sanzang?
The furious Tathagata suddenly looked at Manjusri, wondering what Manjusri would answer.
In the bookstore, Yang Xiao burst out laughing, Tang Sanzang was definitely acting in his true colors.
He only asked Tang Sanzang to show respect to Manjusri and admit his mistake for Manjusri's sake.
But I never thought that Tang Sanzang would actually win over Manjusri. I don't know if he was really trying to win over Manjusri, or just for the effect of acting.
However, Yang Xiao felt that the possibility of actually wooing him was not small.
"Shut up, Tang Sanzang, how could you be so virtuous and capable? How dare you make such unrealistic ideas? How dare you care about the position of Buddha."
"Do you know that the Buddha has gone through thousands of eons, preaching Dharma and teachings in the whirling world, guiding and benefiting all living beings, and establishing boundless merits? Only then can he be favored by the saints and take charge of the spiritual mountain."
"And you are just a little Buddhist scripture seeker. You suddenly gain magical power and you dare to challenge the Buddha? Tang Sanzang, do you know you are wrong?"
With an angry snort, Manjusri interrupted Tang Sanzang and began to lecture him.
Word for word, what he said was very reasonable. Tathagata listening from a distance was beaming with joy.
That's very good, yes, Tang Sanzang, how could you be so virtuous and capable as to dare to take the position of this Buddha?
It is hard to see that he, the Buddha, has such a high status in Manjusri's mind.
It turned out that he had misunderstood Manjusri all along. Manjusri was not targeting anyone, he was just really thinking about Buddhism.
Not bad, not bad. Find a time to recall Manjusri to Lingshan and replace him with someone else to take charge of the underworld.
Tathagata was extremely happy and had an idea in his mind.
"I realize my mistake. It turns out that Buddha is so great thanks to the guidance of Bodhisattva. Otherwise, I will make a big mistake and be responsible for my death."
"In order to make up for the mistake, the disciple decided to repent devoutly to the Buddha and beg his forgiveness. Ami's hair, the poor monk was wrong, really wrong."
Tang Sanzang lowered his head, looking sincere in admitting his mistake.
If they hadn't known it in advance, no one would have thought that the two guys in front of them had been acting.
"Namo Tathagata Buddha knows his mistakes and can correct them, and there is no great good. Tang Sanzang, I am very pleased that you have this attitude. Remember, the Buddha will always be the Buddha, and no one can shake his status."
"Those of us who are disciples of Buddha must believe in our Buddha. Not only should we not have unrealistic ideas ourselves, but we must also prevent others from having unrealistic ideas."
Manjusri pretended to be satisfied, with a faint smile on his face.
If Tang Sanzang realized something, he nodded repeatedly.
The Tathagata hiding in the distance smiles brighter than flowers. Listen, what you say is so good.
If everyone in his Buddhist sect is as loyal to him as Manjushri, there is no need to worry that his Buddhist sect will not flourish.
"Perfect, hehe, it's better to be surprised. Tathagata must be observing Tang Sanzang now, and he must have heard these words."
"As long as you improve your view of Manjusri, Tathagata will definitely not be suspicious if you spread some misleading information."
In the bookstore, Yang Xiao nodded with satisfaction. So far, his plan was very successful.
With Manjusri and Samantabhadra, he has driven two nails into Buddhism.
Of course, Puxian is not sure yet and needs his guidance.
However, with the brainwashing he received all the way to the bookstore, Pu Xian won't have much of a problem here, and he will definitely be able to use it to his advantage.
Leaving the Wuji Kingdom, taking the blue lion with him, bidding farewell to Tang Sanzang and others, Manjusri flew far away.
Manjusri did not come directly to the bookstore, but pretended to run to the underworld for a while. After feeling that no one was paying attention to him, he suddenly turned around and headed towards the bookstore.
