Still the same arrogant monkey.
I thought that five hundred years of pressure would make him more restrained, but unexpectedly, meeting such a master made him even more wanton.
The words of the two masters and disciples impacted the bottom line of Guanyin Bodhisattva. If the curtain of the journey to the west had not already begun, she would definitely inform the Buddha to reconsider the candidate.
"Monkey! How dare you speak nonsense!"
Fa Hai was also shocked when he heard this. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven is really extraordinary. He is worthy of being a figure who can say that he wants to sit on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven. Now he actually has his eye on the Buddha's throne of the World Honored One... Oh, it's for him. Ascended to the position of Buddha.
When Wukong saw his master getting angry, he secretly complained in his heart. When they first met, he could restrain himself a little because he didn't know his master's temperament. Now that he thought he was familiar with his master, he unknowingly let go a little, and occasionally acted daringly. The words slipped out of his mouth.
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, he knew something was wrong.
"You will be punished to carry the luggage in person, and you will not be allowed to change in disguise."
When Wukong heard his master's punishment, he breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly took away his magical power, took the golden cudgel in his hand, and used it as a shoulder pole. He hung it on both ends and carried it on his shoulder, saying: "Disciple, be punished, be punished! "
The words were hilarious, and although I don't know if he took it as a warning, he seemed to be willing to accept the punishment.
The differences between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism are reflected in various aspects, and there are naturally considerable differences in precepts.
Although Hinayana Buddhism also has strict precepts, it has a flexible bottom line. If you just think about it, you can't break the precepts. Mahayana Buddhism is different. You can't even think about it, you have to make up your mind and follow the rules. Even if you have the idea of violating the precepts, it is equivalent to For violating the precepts.
This is also the point that Jin Chanzi, including Fa Hai, is most resistant to.
Although the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism are to save all living beings, if all living beings have the same appearance and no longer have their own thoughts, wouldn't they all become walking corpses?
The only function of living is to provide incense and faith to the Buddhas in Lingshan. How can this be considered to save all sentient beings?
When Fahai was the abbot of Jinshan Temple, the statues of the Buddha were all carved from rocks, which were completely different from the golden and brilliant Buddhas in other temples... Jinshan Temple's world-famous reputation has never been based on the strong incense, but on Fahai's ability to subdue demons and demons. Famous and prestigious.
...
The corners of Guanyin Master's mouth raised slightly in the clouds, as if he didn't expect that Sanzang was really good at disciplining the monkey, and the monkey really listened to him.
This is a good thing, but for Lingshan, it is not a happy one.
The method of restraining the monkeys with a tight band was set, and there was no expectation that Tang Sanzang, who was cowardly and somewhat pedantic by nature, could subdue the stubborn monkeys. After all, the original policy was to disperse separately after heading west.
As for the relationship between master and disciple, it is possible to have it, and it would be a pity not to have it.
After all, Master Guanyin is very kind and merciful. Although things went beyond her expectations, she would never secretly instigate it.
In other words, as long as we can successfully go to the West, some small changes are not unacceptable.
Of course, although it is a bit tricky, it is not like facing a formidable enemy. After all, there are many powerful people in Lingshan, but how many of them can you handle?
Now the master and the disciple are on their honeymoon. As time goes by, there will be changes, so just wait for the opportunity.
Back then, my master and my uncle and master were almost of the same mind. Didn't they go their separate ways?
In Lingshan, there are not just one or two people who have become Buddhists.
Let's go and see.
At this time, the Bodhisattva really wanted to see how far the two masters and disciples would go.
Hey, it’s just that the monkey head is not the only disciple on the westward journey, let’s wait and see.
...
Snakes coil around the mountain, and eagles grieve over the stream.
Just by hearing the name, you can tell that it is not a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It can be said that it is a place with steep cliffs, rugged roads, and steep mountains.
"Master, there is Yingchoujian in front of us."
Wukong walked in the front with his bow, jumped up to a treetop, and shouted from above: "Master, do you still remember the white dragon that my old grandson mentioned? It is in this stream..."
Fahai thought secretly in his heart. According to Buddhist classics, Master Tripitaka was traveling to the west, and he was sitting on a white dragon horse. It turned out that the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea had violated the rules of heaven, which was a capital crime... Because the Bodhisattva interceded for mercy, he acted as a foot supporter. After studying the scriptures, he was consecrated as the Eightfold Heavenly Dragon Guangli Bodhisattva. Only then did he transform into a dragon body again and obtain the true enlightenment.
It seems that I heard something moving on the cliff. There was an explosion under the water stream, and a dragon emerged from the cliff. It pushed the waves and pushed it out of the cliff... Just as he was showing his teeth and claws in mid-air, he saw the great sage holding an iron rod to protect the elder. In front of me, I was shocked.
Seeing the white dragon coming out of the water, Wukong immediately forgot about watching Master's Dharma. He was about to use the method of subduing the dragon in front of the master, but when he heard a "pop" sound, the white dragon directly turned back into the water without forgetting it. Make a perfect splash.
"Master, maybe this white dragon recognizes his disciple and is afraid of the reputation of the great sage Qitian, so he ran away." Wukong felt quite regretful, "Master, since it doesn't come to provoke us, let's go across the stream."
With that said, Wukong picked up his luggage, and then bent down: "Master, the cliff is steep and the water stream has no bottom, so it is my disciple who will carry you across."
"That's inappropriate." How could someone like Fa Hai be willing to be carried on his back?
But since he has promised to walk to the west step by step, he is not willing to use the art of flying in the clouds and riding the mist now. After all, he is an ordinary monk.
"Wukong, my master remembers that your golden cudgel is as long as you like. Why don't you build it here to make a long bridge..."
But Wukong thought for a while and whispered: "Master, what should we do if the white dragon attacks me in the middle of the journey while I have no weapons?"
"That proves that it is doomed."
Xiao Bailong was not a reckless man. He had already received a blow from the Great Sage last night, so he naturally knew how powerful he was and did not dare to show his face easily.
Besides, he is not a man-eating dragon. He is just waiting here for a pilgrim to do some legwork to atone for his sins...
The little white dragon looked up under the water stream and saw the master and the apprentice, one behind the other, walking steadily on the golden cudgel. Even though the mountain wind was howling, his figure did not waver.
They are two capable monks...
Um? ?
Monk?
Are you from the east?
The little white dragon's body shrank and bounced, making a splashing sound, and it was a scene like a dragon emerging from the water.
Wukong was overjoyed when he saw this and said: "Demon dragon, we are waiting for you to come out of the water!"
You have to go up and capture the dragon even with your bare hands.
However, when the little white dragon came out of the water, he transformed into a human form and shouted: "Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
Now that Wukong has the control of his master, he lives up to his previous recklessness. When he saw that the white dragon came out of the water, he didn't look like he was looking for bad luck, so he said: "Let's see what you have to say. If you don't know better, Lao Sun will pull out the dragon skin and beat you Dragon sinew."
Bailong ignored Wukong, but slowly fell down, stepped on the golden cudgel, and asked Elder Tang: "Is the elder a Buddhist monk from the Tang Dynasty who went to the Western Heaven?"
Little Bailong just said a word, and Brother Monkey smelled a familiar smell.
Sure enough, after the master nodded in agreement, the little white dragon bowed his head and said: "Master, after receiving the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, I made a special trip here to wait for the pilgrims who went west from the Tang Dynasty to help them walk. But now I almost missed the master. This time It was my disciple's fault, and I ask Master Wanwang to forgive me."
"Did you also receive the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva?" Wukong looked at him for a while and said: "I am the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. I also received the guidance of the Bodhisattva not long ago. Now I am worshiping under the master. Escort Master to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."
"It turns out to be Sun Dasheng. No wonder he has such supernatural powers. I have met my senior brother." Xiao Bailong bowed his hands in greeting again: "I was originally the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea. He committed a crime because he set fire to the luminous pearl given by the Jade Emperor on the wedding night. Tian Tiao was demoted to this place and punished. Later, under the guidance of the Bodhisattva, he said that there would be a Buddhist scripture seeker passing by. He traveled a hundred and eight thousand miles to the West to pray to Buddha and seek scriptures. How can an ordinary horse walk? It is precisely because he wants his younger brother to turn into a horse. Longma, go through these difficulties and dangers."
"Hehe." Wukong chuckled: "You don't know Master's ambition and perseverance. Master said that he would go to the West one step at a time... Master originally had a white horse, but when he left the territory of the Tang Dynasty, he threw it away Give it back... I'm afraid you won't be able to use your leg strength."
"Master, please don't give up."
While Xiao Bailong was shocked, he could not help but feel a little admiration for Elder Tang in his heart, but now if the master didn't accept him...he would have no way out.
Bodhisattva, this is different from what you said!
