Xingxian was sent to the lower realm by the Queen Mother, which represents this Yaochi, not the heaven.
The Queen Mother is in charge of the female fairies of the three realms. In this Yaochi, there is actually a system of female fairies that is independent of the heaven. Fairies such as Fairy Chang'e, Fairy Baihua, and Seven Fairies, who only have fairy positions but no priesthood, are generally subject to The jurisdiction of the Queen Mother.
And goddesses with specific priesthoods, such as the Three Holy Mothers and the Goddess of Desire, although they are nominally under the jurisdiction of the Queen Mother, they are actually dispatched by the Heavenly Court. The Queen Mother does not restrict them under normal circumstances.
After the Apricot Fairy became an immortal, the Queen Mother simply made her the Apricot Fairy.
These kinds of spirits that become immortals from plants and trees basically take their own original form as their nickname.
Fahai has a good sense of Xingxian, and her ability to become an immortal as a casual cultivator is enough to prove her extraordinary qualities.
"Your Majesty is interested."
"Holy Monk, the immortal is just here as a friend tonight. During the ceremony tomorrow, I will send you a congratulatory gift on behalf of the empress." It was also the example of the Queen of Xiliang just now, which made her unconsciously be a little tougher in front of Master Sanzang, but this time As soon as he finished speaking, he looked discouraged, "The little fairy came in a hurry and didn't bring any valuable gifts."
As she spoke, she gritted her teeth and took out a small, delicate box from her sleeves, saying, "I wanted to make some apricot blossom stuffed wine, but remembering that the holy monk never drank alcohol, I made some apricot blossom tea. "
"A little thought, but if it's not respectful, please accept it with a smile from the holy monk."
When Fahai saw this, he stood up immediately. But when Xingxian saw it, his whole body tensed up subconsciously, and then he looked at Master Sanzang cautiously, with a hint of pleading in his eyes, for fear that Master Sanzang would refuse.
"Amitabha."
What else could Fa Hai do besides reciting the Buddha's name?
In fact, whether it is the Queen of Xiliang, the Peacock Princess, or the Apricot Immortal in front of her, Fahai naturally knows everything about their thoughts.
It is said that the easiest way is to cut off Ke Ke's heart and flesh with a clean knife. Since he is in the world of mortals, how can he do such a heartless thing?
This is also his limitation. After all, he really has no experience to draw on for this kind of thing.
The so-called world of mortals refines one's heart, that's probably it.
And when Fahai walked up to Xingxian and took the tea box from his hand, it was obvious that Xingxian was relieved.
"Thank you fairy for the tea."
Xingxian didn't dare to stay any longer and left in a hurry.
After that, Fahai did not go back to his meditation room. He just sat alone in the main hall of the main hall, clasped his hands and gradually fell into meditation.
During this period, several disciples came to take a look. Their intention was to give a final report on tomorrow's ceremony. Seeing this scene, they did not disturb the master. The four of them summoned the six-eared macaque Lu Cong and the two little wolves Wu Xing. He, Wu Zhen, and the little pig demon Meng Huan were not present except for the little elephant Wu Xiang who was going to protect the national destiny in Baoxiang Kingdom for two hundred years.
This is the first time that their brothers and sisters are so complete.
Although Wu Xiang was not present, he was not excluded. The great sage developed a brand new spell through the technique of taking photos, which can communicate with each other thousands of miles away.
But it needs to use his monkey hair as a medium, and every time the spell is cast, two monkey hairs will be consumed.
At present, the Great Holy Family has a great cause and can completely afford it.
The apprentices gathered together for a meeting to control the last details and strive to make tomorrow's ceremony perfect.
Tomorrow is not only the opening of Ci'en Temple, but also the first Branch of Shishi Sect in Baoxiang Kingdom, which will be officially unveiled under the auspices of Wu Xiang. This is the envy of other countries.
When Xingxian left the hall and returned to her residence, she found that the lights in Queen Xiliang's room were still on. Through the light and shadow, she could probably tell that Princess Peacock was also in her room.
Didn't they leave?
But Xingxian soon figured out that he wanted to leave. He had to wait until tomorrow after the opening ceremony.
This idea flashed in her mind, and she stopped thinking about it. She walked quickly to the door. When she opened the door, she happened to hear the somewhat indignant voice of the Peacock Princess: "Sanzang The mage is too ruthless."
Xingxian subconsciously wanted to hear a few more words, but the next moment she stepped into the house and closed the door.
But her thoughts could not calm down for a long time.
Because the words of a peacock princess always lingered in her heart and were difficult to get rid of.
Is Master Tripitaka really heartless?
In the next room, the Queen of Xiliang looked at Princess Peacock and said with some helplessness: "Princess, please be careful that something happened for nothing and let the Holy Buddha blame it."
"She didn't come here." The princess waved a feather fan in her hand, "She has escaped, so let her go."
The Queen of Xiliang raised her eyebrows, not knowing who let whom go.
Princess Peacock's temperament is somewhat eccentric, much different from the Queen's dignified grandeur and Xingxian's elegance and elegance. Just now she saw Xingxian, who had been alone with Master Sanzang for a long time, returned, and she deliberately said such words He came here with the intention of luring Xingxian to eavesdrop outside the door, and then opened the door suddenly, catching the other party off guard. But in the end, he ignored her.
Princess Peacock seemed a little more reserved in front of Master Sanzang. In private, especially after getting acquainted with the Queen of Xiliang, she had no intention of hiding her true nature.
"People in the Three Realms always say that Master Tripitaka does not look like a Buddhist. Even my ancestors have mentioned it more than once that Master Tripitaka is by no means an ordinary monk. Throughout the founding of Buddhism to this day, monks like Master Tripang are still unique. One share." Princess Peacock sighed, with a look of helplessness on her face, "He doesn't even care about killing, he breaks it as soon as he breaks it, and is even known as 'killing life and killing karma' in the three realms. He is not close to women, and in terms of fearing women like a tiger, I think he is no different from an ordinary monk."
"Wrong." The Queen of Xiliang shook her head when she heard this.
"Wrong?" Princess Peacock turned her head and looked over, "Now that we have reached this point, you are still protecting your younger brother like this?"
The Queen of Xiliang didn't care about Princess Peacock's strange aura, she just smiled and said: "Princess has been in the fairyland for a long time. Naturally, she doesn't know the things in the mortal world unless she enters the mortal world."
Princess Peacock suddenly opened her eyes a little wider and said in her heart: I have lived for more than a thousand years. Even if I don't come to the world often, am I still not as knowledgeable as you?
"Ordinary Buddhist monks regard killing as the first major precept, but they always seem to be unable to control the precept of lust." The Queen of Xiliang smiled and said: "Otherwise, why should we do this along the way? There are so many women who know that Brother Yudi and the Third Prince are Buddhists who seek Buddhist scriptures from the West, but they still always look for them like moths flying into a flame?"
well?
"Do you know what kind of man is the most frequent man in my daughter's country?"
"Could it be that he's a monk?" Princess Peacock guessed the answer. Seeing the Queen of Xi Liang nodding in recognition, she couldn't remain calm, "This, this, this..."
"The princess also knows the situation of my daughter's country. There are no men in the country, and all the women are resentful. Moreover, human relations are the road between heaven and earth." The Queen of Xiliang seemed to be talking about the most ordinary thing. "And for those who happen to pass by our country For monks, isn’t it also a meritorious act to resolve the obsession and resentment in the hearts of these women through a one-night stand?”
Princess Peacock grasped a very important key point: "Your Majesty, do they really pass by the Daughter's Kingdom by chance?"
"Haha." The Queen of Xiliang smiled and said: "Who knows, whether it is passing by, what does it matter to our subjects?"
hiss--
I heard an amazing thing.
"No matter how many excuses there are, those monks have broken their precepts after all, right?"
"This is the key point." The Queen of Xiliang looked in the direction of the main hall, and then said: "After breaking the precepts, if you can still recognize the righteous nature of your mind, you will naturally still be a member of the Buddhist sect, just like Brother Yudi Isn't it true that the prohibition of killing is still a holy Buddha that everyone in the three realms respects? If someone loses their state of mind because of this, they will at most be expelled from Buddhism. Besides, this is a matter of love between you and me, so you won't lose your life because of it, and you can just return to secular life. .”
The Peacock Princess blinked. A route she had never thought of before.
"Then what if after they break the precepts, they neither recognize their true intentions nor return to secular life?"
"That's their own business. What does it have to do with our daughter country?"
Early the next morning.
Xingxian pushed the door open and saw the Queen of Xiliang and Princess Peacock admiring the scenery in the small courtyard. After thinking about it, she walked forward and said to Princess Peacock very seriously, "Princess, the fairy thought Master Sanzang He is definitely not a heartless person.”
After saying that, she hurried away.
Princess Peacock was still dazed, while the Queen of Xiliang beside her couldn't help laughing, as if her mood from yesterday had recovered.
"She must have been thinking about it all night, right?" Princess Peacock looked at Xingxian's leaving figure and asked the Queen of Xiliang beside her.
"But she is right. Brother Yudi is indeed not a heartless person. But it is precisely because he has feelings that when he has to do heartless things or is said to be a heartless person, there are also Who can measure him?"
At this point, Princess Peacock no longer wants to talk to Queen Xi Liang anymore.
It's obvious that someone rejected you, my Majesty the Queen!
It has to be said that if anyone has the deepest affection for Master Sanzang, it is undoubtedly the Peacock Princess, the Queen of Xiliang, who is willing to be inferior.
But what is the use of being moved by oneself?
Not getting any benefit at all.
That is to say, Master Sanzang’s Buddhist thoughts are firm. Otherwise, if one day Master Sanzang kills Hongluan, what will you do then, my Majesty the Queen?
Although it seems that there is no need to worry too much about Master Tripitaka in this regard. But what if it happens?
Who can say for sure about this kind of thing?
What if Master Tripitaka one day abandons the Buddha as a demon and no longer taboos the love between men and women? But the person who is with him at that time is not you. How should you deal with it?
Not to mention that Princess Peacock's inner drama was too rich, it was almost time for the Queen of Xiliang to see her. Outside the temple, one could hear the guests singing their names when they arrived, so she grabbed Princess Peacock and said: "Let's go." , the ceremony is about to begin."
Ci'en Temple has been built a long time ago, but although the "Consciousness Only Sect" is no longer unfamiliar to everyone, it is today that it has truly established its brand in the Three Realms.
In Chang'an City, the Qianniu Guards and Xuanjia Cavalry on the left and right were also dispatched early to maintain public order in the city under the command of Xue Rengui.
At the opening ceremony of the Weishi Sect, all visitors are guests, and Master Tripitaka has no restrictions on visitors.
But Li Shimin could not ignore the public order in the city. In addition to Xue Rengui, the martial arts disciples also went into battle one by one and guarded various streets.
Today, the imperial court issued a notice of Xiu Mu. It was an order issued by the emperor himself, saying that he would come to Ci'en Temple in person to bear witness to the opening of the sect for his imperial brother. Even His Majesty came in person, so naturally all the ministers will be present today.
In Ci'en Temple.
Gods and gods from all walks of life, as well as bodhisattvas, have already arrived.
Whenever Wu Jing at the gate of the temple sings the name of an immortal Buddha, the people of Chang'an will exclaim.
From the beginning of the Dragon King of the Four Seas and the various star kings to King Li Tianwang and Erlang Zhenjun of Tota, from the Buddhist Arhat to Guanyin Bodhisattva and the Great Sun Tathagata, all the way to the last Zhen Yuanzi and Lishan Old Mother, every wave is higher than the next. , every subsequent exclamation will make them feel that they were surprised too early.
When did these immortal figures descend to earth in groups?
Master Tripitaka is truly the Holy Buddha of the Three Realms!
That is to say, Master Tripitaka explicitly prohibited them from kneeling down, otherwise they would have kneeled down in a large black area.
It was Xiao Bailong and the Great Sage who received these people in Ci'en Temple, but Tang Dynasty was also the landlord after all, so Li Shimin specially sent Wang Xuance as the representative of the Tang Dynasty court to welcome guests from all walks of life.
Wang Xuance was born with a big heart, and even when facing gods and bodhisattvas, he showed no timidity. Even when Lishan Lao Mu finally entered the temple, he rarely praised him: "This boy has the style of an ancient human civil servant."
The surrounding immortal monks naturally echoed this, but only those who have truly seen the civil servants of the ancient human race know what this sentence actually means.
Because Lao Mu opened his mouth, they naturally looked at Wang Xuance a few more times and then began to exchange glances with each other——
"Why have I never heard of such a person among the human race before?"
"Shouldn't it be Western Buddhism that is booming this time? Why do you think the rise of the Tang Dynasty is just around the corner?"
"The rise of the Tang Dynasty? How many countries in the Three Realms can compare with the Tang Dynasty? What about Tianzhu? But this Tian Khan is not another emperor of the ages, right?"
"I heard that this emperor on earth wants to restore the prosperity of the ancient kings."
"Ahem." The old man coughed twice.
Only then did everyone become quiet.
Behind Lao Mu, the Queen of Xiliang looked curiously at the woman in white next to her, "But Senior Sister Bai?"
"Junior Sister." This woman in white is of course no one else. It is the white snake that has been coiled in the hand of Mr. Lishan - Bai Suzhen. After she transformed in front of the Immortal Zhenyuan that day, Mr. Lishan did not let her change back. , and followed him directly in person.
This is what I did on purpose, just to let everyone present today know that Bai Suzhen is her disciple.
Naturally, the Queen of Xiliang saw Bai Suzhen's appearance for the first time, and secretly admired in her heart: What a beautiful person, with such an earthly temperament, he really doesn't look like he was born as a snake demon.
After all, snake demons have always been famous for their aloofness in the Three Realms, and snake demons like Bai Suzhen who are full of "immortal energy" after their transformation are indeed very rare.
The gods and bodhisattvas present were naturally not surprised. How could the person who was favored by Mr. Lishan and accepted as his disciple be an ordinary person?
