When Mahakasyapa was reincarnated, his true spirit and magic power were also sealed, and he wanted to be a pure person in the next life.
people.
The most noble nature of heaven and earth.
He also said: The virtues of heaven and earth, the intersection of yin and yang, the meeting of ghosts and gods, and the beauty of the five elements.
Several ancestors of the human race in the Fire Cloud Cave once said: Regardless of the gods and ghosts in the previous life, after reincarnation, one day will be a human being, and the human being will be a human being for the rest of his life.
Of course, this is not so absolute.
After all, even humans sometimes enter the realm of demons and heretics, and sometimes have the opportunity to become immortals.
But no matter what, there are still relatively many phenomena that are dominated by the personality after reincarnation, like "Sanzang" and Yang Tianyou.
As for the situation after Mahakasyapa reincarnated and re-cultivated, the Buddha did not care too much about this. As long as he did not step into the evil and heretic ways, everything would be allowed to take its course and he would practice on his own.
On the contrary, if there is trouble in Nanzhou, the True Lord Temple under the command of Erlang Zhenjun will naturally take action; if there is trouble in Xizhou, Lingshan also has the Discipline Hall; if there is an evil situation in Beizhou, His Highness Emperor Zhenwu will clean it up.
As for the dojo in Dongzhou, a famous mountain where three or four immortals can be set up. If he dared to cause chaos in Dongzhou, he would not die quickly enough.
The Buddha looked towards the underworld and immediately saw Manjushri Bodhisattva who had borrowed a place in the underworld to meditate and was waiting for the reincarnation of Manjushri to be reincarnated again after his yang life span was exhausted.
Even if Manjushri Bodhisattva's true spirit is awakening at this moment, his state of mind will inevitably be affected by his reincarnated personality. His short ten years in the human world is almost comparable to his thousands of years of seclusion and practice.
Although Tripitaka was resolute, Buddha still wanted to give it a try. Even if he could be persuaded to let him temporarily take over the position of Buddha, he would wait until he returned from the tribulation and then return it to him?
Since the birth of Lingzhi, Buddha has been accepted as a disciple by Master Tongtian. At that time, Master Tongtian had not even founded Jie Sect.
From then on, the Buddha was either practicing or listening to Master Tongtian teach them how to practice. During the rare free time, during the Conferred God War, he directly defeated Nuo Jiejiao. He was also beaten by Tai Uncle Qing caught him and sent him to Xizhou to become the Buddha.
Then, he studied Mahayana Buddhism with the three Taoist monks who were also sent to Lingshan by Master Taiqing.
The path of spiritual practice is relaxing. I have been nervous for tens of thousands of years, and it’s time to go down to earth and experience the customs of the mortal world.
After all, Tripitaka is right. If you have never experienced the mortal world, how can you know the sufferings in the world?
Empty talk to persuade people to do good is nothing but a castle in the air. Just like Manjushri Bodhisattva, he has great wisdom and can even inspire immortals and gods to transform into Buddhas. But when it comes to universal salvation for all living beings in the world, he is far behind Guanyin.
Originally, the leader of the Wuji Kingdom could come to Lingshan to obtain the status of Arhat, but now he is connected with the fate of humanity and the destiny of the country. Even though the entire country does not respect gods and Buddhas, people still worship at Huoyun Cave as usual. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
Although Wuji Kingdom is in Xizhou, it is not that far away from Nanzhou after all. Going back several generations, it can be traced back to the Central Plains human race. Anyone who can be traced back to the Central Plains human race is the descendant of Yan and Huang.
If they suffer disaster because they do not worship gods and Buddhas, not to mention what the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors will do at that time, even the two thorns of Yang Jian and Sanzang will not sit idly by. By then, both Lingshan and Heaven will have something to gain. Noisy.
Buddha himself was happy to hear about this.
In the past, the atmosphere of gods and Buddhas in the Three Realms was indeed a little skewed, but now, under the leadership of Tripitaka and Yang Jian, it is thriving.
Thinking back then, it was a few saints who had the final say in the Three Realms. Even if it was the Jade Emperor, there were not a few religious leaders who could handle it. And since the saints left the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor and the Buddha naturally spoke louder and louder.
Sure enough, there are talented people from generation to generation. With such outstanding descendants, naturally there is no need to worry about having no successors.
At this moment, when the Buddha saw Mahakasyapa entering reincarnation, he suddenly had an idea in his mind. If all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan Mountain could enter reincarnation, he would be able to enter reincarnation.
Amitabha.
This idea just came up, and the Buddha directly suppressed it with the size of the human world, but he could not tolerate the reincarnation of so many gods and Buddhas, otherwise it would cause chaos in the human world, and even catastrophe in the three realms.
Buddha couldn't help but think of the great sage of the demon world.
At this point, it was still a bit of a mistake. It would have been better if he had not deliberately suppressed him. If the demon world appeared earlier, he would have entered reincarnation earlier.
But now, if you want the demon world and the three realms to merge into one place, you may have to wait for three hundred years.
Thinking of this, the Buddha was ready to wait for Sanzang's affairs to be settled. Regardless of whether he was willing to take over Lingshan, he would go to heaven. Firstly, he wanted to pay a visit to Laojun, and secondly, he wanted to have a close relationship with the Jade Emperor. Let’s discuss how to deal with this invasion of the demon world.
It just so happens that one day in the sky and one year on the earth kill two birds with one stone.
"Amitabha."
The Buddha was still thinking about his reincarnation and the past kalpas. Samantabhadra Bodhisattva had already appeared on the side. He recited the Buddha's name to Sanzang and performed a Buddhist salute.
"Sanzo, long time no see."
Fa Hai returned the gift: "Bodhisattva."
"Monk kills living beings." Samantabhadra Bodhisattva said these four words with a serious look on his face.
Fahai responded: "When the road is rough, cut off your karma and protect your life."
After hearing this, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva was deeply convinced and said: "Can you be compassionate?"
"My Buddha also has the angry eyes of Vajra, and the little monk has the heart of a Bodhisattva."
"Good." Rather than asking Tripitaka a difficult question, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva is more like asking Tripitaka. Although the question is still a bit tricky, it is not a taboo question. Moreover, in the Bodhisattva's view, the reason for Fahai's killing and karma is One is that they, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, have not done their job properly.
It's a pity that he has no skills at all. He only relies on his two feet. Even though he is said to be the best in Lingshan, he can't cover everything in the three realms that are so vast.
Although Master Fahai and his disciples were not as close to this Bodhisattva as they were with Master Guanyin, they always respected him.
The Mahayana teachings of Buddhism are as popular as they are today. In fact, to a large extent, they rely on the teachings of Guanyin and Samantabhadra Bodhisattvas. It's a pity that the appeal to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan is not very high.
"There was a Taoist fellow named Lingya who, due to some karma, once worked for a poor monk." Puxian Bodhisattva mentioned Lingya Fairy, "Back then, Taoist monk Qiu Shou, who was a disciple of Manjushri Bodhisattva, entered a barrier and set up a flag at Shituoling. He became the king. Taoist fellow Lingya heard that he was so mad that he was causing trouble in the lower world, so he went down to the earth privately and went to Shituoling to meet each other. Firstly, it was because of their deep brotherhood, and secondly, it was also to restrain fellow Taoist Qiu Shou."
Although he didn't know why the Bodhisattva mentioned this matter, Fahai still listened carefully.
White Elephant and Green Lion were both disciples of the inner sect of the Jie Sect back then, and were the Seven Immortals who accompanied the Lord Tongtian. During the battle of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, they were surrendered by Samantabhadra and Manjusri respectively.
There was also a Golden Light Immortal who was also surrendered at that time. It was the Golden Roar who was a disciple of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Now he has regained his freedom and is practicing in Qilin Mountain.
It is worth mentioning that his disciple, the Empress of Jinshenggong of Zhuzi Kingdom, has now made Qilin City impressive. Before returning to Lingshan, when Fahai talked with Wang Xuance, he also learned that Wang Xuance had made a special trip to Qilin City, and also learned that the Empress of Jin Sheng Palace planned to make Qilin City an independent sovereign city and formally establish diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty.
Wang Xuance specifically asked Master Tripitaka for his opinion.
Fahai would naturally not object to this. This was originally a mutually beneficial matter for both parties, so why not do it?
But during the conversation, Fahai casually recommended Langlang Mountain.
Humans and demons are born in the three realms together. If they just stand on their own sides, they may really be incompatible with each other.
But Fahai knows that peaceful coexistence between the two sides is the right path, but this path is extremely difficult to walk and has a long way to go.
"In addition to the Spirit Tooth Fairy and the Qiu-headed Fairy, the poor monk's younger brother also gathered together at Shituoling." The Peacock King Bodhisattva followed Samantabhadra's words and said, "It's just that the evil beast was not able to see Tripitaka at that time. .”
Seeing that it was the Great Peacock King who was speaking, the Great Sage also praised him: "On that day, the Bodhisattva killed his relatives with great righteousness, and invited the Great Sun Tathagata to save him with the Great Sun Buddha Flame and the Golden Roc."
"I was about to say this." The five-colored light behind the Peacock King Bodhisattva showed up, and a phoenix egg appeared in front of everyone, "Back then, the Great Sun Tathagata saved the soul of that evil beast, and its body received the essence and blood of the phoenix to achieve nirvana. The result is that it turns into this egg and gives birth to vitality again. When Tripitaka and Mahakasyapa's Heart Seal were transmitting the Dharma, the Buddha's light was very strong. A small amount of it was absorbed by this egg, so it had the effect of stimulating birth. It may break out of the shell in advance."
But he just finished speaking.
The monks saw cracks appearing on the egg, and then a golden flame ignited——
Fierce!
The phoenix eggs were quickly burned.
And above the main hall, in front of the monks, there is a palm-sized baby bird. Its wings are shining with golden light, its pair of eagle eyes are sharp, and its expression is quite unruly.
Just as he was about to cry, the Peacock King Bodhisattva picked it up and held it in the palm of his hand.
Golden-winged Dapeng—
After Nirvana, flesh and blood are reborn.
If the expressions of the monks looking at the baby bird were normal, the Guanyin Bodhisattva on the side was ready to move when he saw it. He wished he could snatch this arrogant baby bird from the hands of the Peacock King.
Why should this roc enter my purple bamboo forest?
As we all know, Guanyin Bodhisattva likes to keep these "little animals" the most. Even though Ling Xuzi made his Luojia Mountain miserable again and again, she never had the idea of driving it out of the house.
Speaking of which, Ling Xuzi can be regarded as the first batch of victims of the Great Sage Leiyin.
Thinking of this, Bodhisattva suddenly felt a headache.
The power of this monkey chanting sutra is no less than that of the Tightening Curse. The Tightening Curse must be put on before it can take effect, but the Great Sage Thunder Sound attacks Wukong indiscriminately as long as he opens his mouth.
Maha Kassapa escaped the disaster, and Anuo and Kassapa made up their minds to hide in the Sutra Pavilion and never come back. But between drinking and pecking, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, it is still unclear. There is no definite number at all.
"Amitabha." The Peacock King recited the Buddha's name and said to the monks, especially Tripitaka and Samantabhadra: "This incident happened suddenly and disturbed you two. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter."
Tripitaka and Samantabhadra will naturally not care about this. Besides, the birth of Jinpeng is auspicious and not a bad thing.
The Buddha, who was sitting on the golden lotus, also said to the Peacock Great Ming King Bodhisattva at this moment: "The golden-winged roc is vicious by nature. You should restrain it and don't let it follow the footsteps of its predecessor."
The Ancient Buddha of Ran Deng, who had been silent all this time, also said: "The poor monk has a disciple named Yuyi Xian, who is the leader of the Golden-winged Dapeng clan. The Buddha's mother will come to the poor monk's dojo when she has time."
"good."
Peacock Great Ming King Bodhisattva responded, but did not say anything more.
There are many monks in the hall who want to accept the Golden-winged Dapeng as their disciples, including Maitreya, Medicine Master and other Buddhas. But Peacock Daming King Bodhisattva was obviously not very at ease with them. In addition, just in case, she had already decided to personally teach this incompetent brother to become a talent. Therefore, she did not mention the matter of becoming a disciple.
In fact, it is not that there are no suitable candidates in this hall.
For example, Guanyin Master, and Tripitaka.
Just because his two children have already worshiped Guanyin Bodhisattva, it is still not appropriate for his younger brother to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva as his teacher.
As for Master Tripitaka, it is undeniable that he is a famous teacher.
Just looking at his four disciples, one can tell that his level of discipleship is among the best in the entire Three Realms. Especially in terms of temperament training and moral cultivation, it is beyond the reach of ordinary famous teachers.
After all, most of them are masters who only teach magic and supernatural powers.
Tripitaka, on the other hand, pays more attention to establishing one’s mind. When put in the human world, it is “teaching how to be a human being”.
But because the timing is not right at the moment, let alone the Lingshan sutra debate that Master Tripitaka needs to deal with, I am afraid that after this matter is over, the Buddha will have other arrangements for Tripitaka, and he may not be able to take care of it for a while. Teach disciples.
There was no rush anyway. Peacock King Ming Bodhisattva planned to wait for some time and everything would be stable before asking Master Sanzang to be his younger brother's literature teacher.
As for the martial arts class, he naturally had to take care of his younger brother personally.
When Jinpeng was born, he naturally didn't know that his fate had already been determined by his elder brother.
But with its unruly nature, it also naturally knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Now in the palm of the big brother's hand, it is very well-behaved and calm, looking harmless to humans and animals.
A small head can rotate 180 degrees. All the monks are looking at it. It is also constantly looking at the monks in the hall.
Bright, dazzling.
After all, the Mahavira Palace is magnificent and full of Buddha's light.
There are more than a hundred monks, except for a few Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, basically all have bald heads.
At this moment, Jin Peng's eyes reflected the figure of Master Tripitaka, a monk and a bird, looking at each other.
Fahai looked at the newborn golden roc and said to himself: If he thought correctly, it should be the golden-winged roc that would descend to earth and become Marshal Yue Feiyue in the future, right?
Fahai is not sure whether things will happen in the future.
After all, the wheel of history has inadvertently deviated from the track. Perhaps in this world, the Song Dynasty will not even appear.
But what is certain is that if this thing still happens, then this time I will not sit back and ignore it.
