Why does Tathagata Buddha appear here at this moment?
Even Fa Hai was actually a little unsure of the other party's intentions, but the Great Sage didn't think too much and just stopped him subconsciously.
The actions of the great sage made the Buddha feel helpless. He was originally a Buddhist protector, but now his heart is not in Lingshan.
Fortunately, the "Consciousness Only Sect" is the Buddhist sect established by Sanzang, and this "monkey" is still a Buddhist after all.
Tripitaka is a person who can realize Bodhi by himself, and these disciples of his are also extraordinary people and are definitely worthy of a "great career and enlightenment". Unfortunately, they are all influenced by Tripitaka and have never given up on the attainment of Buddhism. In the heart.
Even the Buddha could not tell whether this was good or bad.
Although Tripitaka today does not have a Buddha title, he is already respected as a "Holy Buddha" by all living beings in the three realms. This is a treatment that is almost superior to that of the Buddhas in Lingshan Mountain.
Especially when I saw the monarchs, ministers and people of this Buddhist-destroying country facing myself and Tripitaka at the same time and choosing each other, I felt even more emotional.
It’s true that the next generation pushes forward the others, and having such a younger generation brings a lot of pressure.
I wonder if the Jade Emperor would feel the pressure brought by Erlang Zhenjun on weekdays.
Fortunately, Tathagata Buddha himself is not obsessed with the position of the Lord of the Spiritual Mountain. He may be more happy about Sanzang being so outstanding.
The worry aspect is also because Sanzang is unwilling to take over Lingshan, so that he can go through reincarnation smoothly.
Who said that since Buddha is an enlightened being, he has no worries or worries?
At this time, the Buddha suddenly understood why Tripitaka was unwilling to become a Buddha. Perhaps for Tripitaka, becoming a Buddha was a shackles.
In short, you don't have to be like yourself, sitting in the Mahavira Palace all day long, doing things that you don't actually like to do in order to maintain your own personality.
"Wukong, don't be rude. The poor monk has seen the Buddha."
It was Master Tripitaka who took the lead, and everyone in Mie France came together to pay homage to the Buddha.
"No need to be polite." Although it was the phantom of the Buddha formed by the gathering of clouds, under the blessing of the Buddha's magical power, it became more and more lifelike at this moment. The voice of the Buddha spread throughout the entire France, "I know that the France was destroyed before. Regarding the matter of the monk, I heard that the king of the country was worried about this, so he asked Tripitaka to be here as a witness——"
After hearing this, the French subjects held their breath for a moment and waited for the Buddha's follow-up.
"The king of the country punishes lawless monks according to the national law, which is the foundation of the country, so he should have no scruples."
After saying that, the Buddha did not stay for a long time, and the shadow disappeared directly.
"My Buddha is merciful, and I respectfully send you the Buddha!"
After Mie France sent Buddha off in unison, they all thanked Sanzang. Because the movement just now was too big, even if he wanted to use magic power to stop it, it was too late, so he originally wanted to stay in Mie France for a while. When Fahai saw this, clouds formed under his feet, and he led several disciples away on the clouds.
After such an appearance by the Buddha, this place can no longer wait.
When the French monarchs and ministers saw the "Holy Buddha" riding on a cloud and walking away, they were not worried. Naturally, the ruler of the country knew something about Master Tripitaka's temperament. Although Master Sanzang didn't stay with them for long, the country's leader was fortunate enough to consult Master Sanzang. He also received guidance from Master Sanzang and invited several high-ranking disciples of "Mr. Ziyu" to serve as officials in his country. .
The eradication of France today is no longer the era of extermination of France in the past. Although it was only a few years ago, the changes were absolutely different, something that he, the leader of the country, did not dare to imagine in the past.
And the one who came to do all this for his country is none other than Master Tripitaka!
"My dear friends." The king did not hide his respect for Master Tripitaka at all, and said directly: "I want to build a holy Buddhist temple specifically for Master Tripitaka. What do you think?"
All the ministers said in unison: "I second the proposal!"
Passed unanimously with no objections.
Above the cloud road——
"Master, how do you think the Buddha managed to do this so smoothly?" The Great Sage scratched his head. He always felt a little strange about the sudden appearance of the Buddha.
Fahai shook his head and said: "There is no need to overestimate the Buddha's actions, but it is finally good news for the destruction of France. It will make them feel anxious about it for a long time."
Bajie murmured to himself: "It seems that the Buddha's eyes never left his mind while we were traveling west to obtain Buddhist scriptures. He even remembered such things."
Wu Jing thought for a while and then said: "In fact, we saw clues in the main hall that day. Second Senior Brother, do you still remember that Buddha said that Buddha knew that Master had many things to ask for advice?"
Bajie spread his hands and looked a little unhappy, "It's not like I, the old pig, said bad things about Buddha all the way, but this time I was able to walk out of Lingshan Mountain intact."
After hearing this, the Great Sage smiled and said, "Do you know why Buddha is Buddha?"
"Why?" Bajie answered subconsciously.
"Of course it's because Buddha has compassion that ordinary people don't have. If you whisper to him in private, Buddha will take your revenge. How can you set an example in the Buddhist world?"
After hearing this, Bajie nodded at first, but then he still felt uneasy, and asked the great sage Xiaosheng again: "Brother Monkey, you are right to say so. But, I mean just in case. What if the Buddha comes to him one day?" He is no longer Buddha."
Um?
Bajie's words made several other fellow apprentices startled. This seemed to be a direction they had never considered before.
Even when he was in Lingshan before, when the Buddha said that he would hand over the location of the Lord of Lingshan to their master, he didn't think too much in this direction.
But now after hearing Bajie's bold hypothesis, everyone inevitably fell into deep thought.
"Amitabha!!!"
Just when they were in confusion, they heard the master's voice vibrating in their hearts, and then their souls were shaken, and they suddenly woke up. Each of them felt a little scared.
You can think about this, but not too much.
Although they had recovered from the previous state, the atmosphere was still a bit condensed. The master and apprentice were standing on the clouds at the moment, each with their own thoughts, and no one said anything.
Not long after, we saw the Zhenhai Chanlin Temple.
Although the master and the disciples did not speak, they could not help but think of what happened back then. The "Mrs. Diyong" who was a demon in the lower world appeared in front of their eyes. She was said to be the adopted daughter of King Li Tian. Although King Li Tian took her in, he It has always been left alone. But if you had taught it carefully, you might not have started cannibalism and ended up like this.
Compared to Mrs. Diyong, Fahai is obviously more interested in Zhenhai Zenlin Temple, but after all, after the gangsters pretending to be monks in the deep mountains and forests were killed, the popularity of the temple was naturally not as popular as usual.
But far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, it is still somewhat peaceful.
Although Fahai has always advocated that monks should not be completely separated from the worldly world, it is undeniable that such winding paths lead to secluded places, and they also have a sense of Zen. For monks who can truly study Buddhism with concentration, it is also a good place. .
The master and disciples did not stop here. After passing Zhenhai Chanlin Temple, they reached the country of Bhikkhu.
When passing by this place, Fahai was also deeply moved. Back then, he held the "Xuanyuan Sword" and killed the lord of a country with his sword. It seemed majestic, but in fact, the danger was not as simple as it seemed.
If Emperor Xuanyuan hadn't given him the "Xuanyuan Sword" and Emperor Yu had opened the mountain, I'm afraid this fate would have been unbearable even for himself.
"Master, we are reaching the Lion and Camel Kingdom just ahead."
The Great Sage held one hand in front of his eyes, looked down and said: "As expected of Erlang Zhenjun, now this lion and camel country has been rebuilt."
Fahai slowed down the speed of the clouds and looked down. After observing the scene below for a while, he said: "It is indeed much easier to formulate rules when order is reestablished. This country of lions and camels has become the first country where humans and demons live together. country."
In fact, in this lion and camel country, not only humans and demons, but also many monks and spiritual tribes also settled here.
Among them are many members of the Peacock tribe.
Seeing that Master was very interested in this lion and camel country, the Great Sage suggested to Master: "Master, would you like to go down and have a look?"
Fa Hai pondered for a while and said: "Come back another day. The situation here is a special case and it is difficult to imitate it elsewhere."
The Great Sage agrees with this. This lion and camel country is like Qilin Town. Although it seems to be successful in allowing humans and demons to coexist peacefully, it is not widespread, so how can it be promoted?
Speaking of which, what is truly worth learning from is the cooperation model between Yuhua Prefecture and the Seven Lion Mountains.
But there are also difficulties that cannot be ignored, and that is the issue of trust between both parties in the initial stage. Of course, this issue is also the most fundamental issue between humans and demons.
Beyond Pansiling is the Zhuzi Kingdom.
Sanzang had promised to be a guest when the king of Zhuzi Kingdom returned, and he would also hold a ritual ceremony in his own country.
In fact, the kings of various countries at that time wanted to ask Sanzang to help them, but Sanzang always refused on the grounds that he could not neglect the trip to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures. However, they all agreed that they would set up altars in their own countries to pray for blessings when they passed by on their way back.
Now on the return trip, Fahai naturally kept his word.
The master and disciples were about to enter the city on foot when the clouds came down outside the capital.
One of the guards recognized their identities at a glance, and when they were about to shout, the Great Sage stepped forward and said, "Don't make any noise, the news will cause confusion among the people."
"Yes Yes Yes--"
The guard nodded quickly and said, "Can I please go and report to Your Majesty first?"
"good!"
"Master, I didn't expect that even after four years, people here still remember us." Bajie poked his head into the city gate, "I'm afraid that we will cause a commotion as soon as we enter. Why don't we disguise ourselves and enter the city again?"
"It doesn't have to be like this. You two are also concerned about chaos." Fahai said with a smile: "Buddhism and Taoism were not popular in this noble country in the past. When we passed by the noble country, we actually didn't have much dealings with the people in the country. I guess the country Even if the common people recognize our identities, the situation will not get too out of control and they can go directly into the city."
In fact, it was the same when France was destroyed. It was only the sudden appearance of Buddha that put their master and disciples on edge.
Fahai took the lead into the city. Seeing their master taking the lead, several disciples followed behind.
Even though their master passed by Zhuzi Kingdom and cured the emperor's illness, which more or less allowed the stagnant Buddhism in Zhuzi Kingdom to develop, the actual effect was still very limited.
Even if the news came a few days ago that "Master Tripitaka was revered by the Buddha as the 'right and omniscient' of Buddhism", in fact, at most it only evoked the common people to say "Awesome!" with just three words.
Even many common people don't know what "right omniscience" is called. Occasionally, after professionals explain it, they mostly pretend to understand it but not understand it.
Sure enough, after the master and apprentice entered the city, although they attracted everyone's attention because of their overly conspicuous costumes, the people mostly lowered their heads and bit their tongues. Even some who recognized their master and apprentice did not make too much noise, just from a distance. He bowed his hands to Master Tripitaka from afar.
As I walked along the way, I saw that most of the noble people in this noble country were Ren Xia.
The atmosphere of a country is actually mostly related to the leader of the country. If the leader of the country likes to be active, the military equipment will be sufficient. If the leader of the country is peaceful, then the culture will be prosperous.
And the national football player of this noble country is a monarch who likes to ride and shoot and hunt. In addition, the queen of their noble country is now in charge of a city and controls the group of demons. The martial culture in the country is naturally a bit heavier.
The journey was smooth and smooth as we arrived outside the palace, where we met the king himself coming out of the palace to greet him——
"Holy Buddha, please forgive me. It's because the king came late and was unable to greet him from a distance! Please forgive me for any slightness."
As he said this, he was about to bow down and see you.
The Holy Buddha has life-saving grace for the king. Although the king is not a devout Buddhist believer, he had great respect for Master Tripitaka back then, not to mention that now Master Tripitaka has become the "Holy Buddha" of the three realms.
"Your Majesty is serious."
Fa Hai supported the king with one hand and said: "If your majesty shows any more courtesy, this poor monk will turn around and leave, and he will never set foot in the Zhuzi Kingdom again."
How could the king hear such words?
Not caring that Master Tripitaka was now the "Holy Buddha", he grabbed Master Tripitaka's sleeve with his backhand and said, "Absolutely not!"
Only then did he realize that Master Tripitaka was deliberately trying to manipulate him with his words, so he had no choice but to obey his orders: "Little Wang, just listen to the Holy Buddha."
"Since I listened to the poor monk, I'd better not use the word 'Holy Buddha' in the future."
"This" the king hesitated for a moment, but before Master Tripitaka could speak, he took the lead and said, "Just follow what the holy monk said!"
Although the difference is only one word, Fahai still feels that the title "holy monk" is quite acceptable. If he didn't feel that it was too pretentious, Fahai would not even accept the word "holy monk". In the end, It is better to call yourself "Master Tripitaka" directly.
The king invited Master Sanzang to enter the palace. On the way, he also talked about the changes that had taken place in the Zhuzi Kingdom in the past few years. In particular, he told Master Sanzang in detail that the Empress of the Golden Saint Palace had shown great power in Qilin City. Now, the Kirin City has become vaguely transcendent to the Zhuzi Kingdom. Regardless of whether they are monsters or humans in the city, everyone only listens to the orders of the Queen of the Golden Saint Palace.
The king is also a wise man. He knows that Jinshenggong's greatest reliance in controlling Qilin City is his master Jin Guangxian. As a mortal king, he has no intention of joining in the excitement of Qilin City from the beginning to the end.
Of course, there are also many monks recruited into the palace now, as a precautionary measure——
