Among the three tiger, deer and sheep brothers, except for the eldest brother who eats meat, the Deer Power Immortal and the Sheep Power Immortal have always been vegetarians, which is inseparable from their prototypes.
But compared to the smoothness of Luli Daxian, Yangli Daxian is very upright and even seems stupid.
However, this kind of quality has become a bonus for Wudang Holy Mother. There were too many ghosts, ghosts and snakes in the Jiejiao at that time, which made her very unhappy. In her opinion, a temperament like the Yangli Great Immortal was very rare.
"This thing is very dangerous." Zen Master Wujing reminded them, "When using it, you must be careful and don't be careless."
Having said that, everyone has obviously reached a consensus that they should try the method on Long Er Dingguangxian, and no one has any psychological burden. They seem to think that all the tortures in the Three Realms will be imposed on him. These are all things that should be taken for granted.
But after all, little Li Bai was younger, and he had a copy of the "Vimalakīrti Sutra" given to him by Tripitaka Buddha, and he read it from time to time. Although he was not pure in the Buddhist teachings, it could be said that he had gained a little, at least. It is much better than that ordinary monk who has wasted his years.
It was also Tong Yanwuji who curiously asked Zen Master Wujing: "Zen Master, doesn't Buddhism say that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda? Why did you turn a blind eye to his experience?"
As soon as these words came out, the fourth princess on the side became worried, fearing that Xiao Li Bai's words would cause disharmony between the two parties. After all, this was just a dispute of ideas between the two religions. How could it be explained clearly in one or two sentences?
But when she saw that the Holy Mother Wudang, the Golden Hoop Immortal, and the three brothers Huluyang were all the same, she suddenly realized that her reaction was a bit exaggerated. For a moment, she had forgotten the consciousness-only teachings of Daci'en Temple. , which is very different from ordinary Buddhist teachings.
In particular, the concept of "killing living beings and karma" is beyond the reach of other Buddhist schools. It is precisely because of this that it is difficult for ordinary Buddhists to understand the purification involved. Therefore, even if they later successfully join the Daci'en Temple and become a disciple of Wei Buddhist disciples who follow the Dharma teachings are not granted the right to "kill living beings and eliminate karma".
In today's consciousness-only teachings, only the great sage and Wu Jing can master the "killing of life and karma". As for Xiao Bailong, he has not been tonsured. He is just a lay disciple, not a member of the Buddhist sect. Under the permission of the master , Buddhist precepts naturally cannot restrict him.
Although he himself has always used Buddhist precepts as a guideline to regulate his behavior, he observes the precepts independently, which is different from Buddhist monks.
"Namo Sanzang Holy Buddha." Zen Master Wujing clasped his hands together and called out the Buddha's name before smiling at little Li Bai and saying: "The little donor doesn't know something. This long-eared Dingguang Immortal donor has no worries about his life, so why should he be poor?" Will the monk come to the rescue?"
"ah?"
Xiao Li Bai was stunned. Can this be explained in this way?
But when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that what Zen Master Wu Jing said was not unreasonable. But he always felt that there was something strange, but he couldn't put it right at the moment.
Seeing that his little head seemed to be a little congested, Zen Master Wujing said to him: "There is another point. That is that the world has too much prejudice against the Great Sun Buddha Flame. This Buddha Flame is actually a magical power that can save people, but it is only evil in the world. If there are too many of them, people will change their color after hearing it.”
Zen Master Wujing put his hands together and said softly: "The great sun is wheeling around, and the flames of the Buddha are shining everywhere. The Immovable Ming Zun will destroy all evils."
This was the mantra that Master Tripitaka recited when he cast the Great Sun Buddha Flame for the first time. As the true successor of Master Tripitaka, Zen Master Wujing has naturally learned all these special skills.
Several disciples have their own predestined relationships, but they have inheritance relative to the great sage himself. Bajie has always been happy and casual. This mantle naturally fell on Zen Master Wujing.
In other words, Wukong and Bajie may separate their families in the future, and the Great Ci'en Temple and the Consciousness-only Dharma teachings will eventually fall on Wujing. Moreover, his own disciples know best how to control this. Do you really feel at ease if you leave the big business to Wukong and Bajie?
The answer is obviously no.
Even if he was relieved, the sentient beings of the three realms might not be able to agree. Even if the sentient beings of the three realms had no objections, the two disciples would probably have to give up. Wu Jing was still worthy of the heavy responsibility.
The major forces in the three realms also have a clear vision of the future development direction of the Consciousness-Only Dharma. Moreover, Master Tripitaka is also very decisive. He holds the position of leader of the Consciousness-Only Dharma based on the Buddha status of Tripitaka Tathagata. In fact, all matters related to the Daci'en Temple and the Consciousness-only Dharma had already been handed over to Wujing to handle.
Calling the current Zen Master Wujing "young sect leader" is not an exaggeration at all.
It was also based on this that Mother Wudang took the initiative to invite Zen Master Wujing to the island.
Moreover, she had no objection to the teachings of the Consciousness-Only Dharma.
That is to say, Tathagata Buddha has not resumed his status as the senior brother of Jie Jiao, and Sanzang Saint Buddha has not mentioned at all that he was a golden cicada in his previous life. Otherwise, it can be said that there is a back-and-forth relationship between Jie Jiao and Consciousness Only Dharma. It's a family.
Of course, such a relationship is likely to be unreliable. Back then, Chanjiao and Jiejiao were at odds with each other, and their insistence on fighting to the death even led to saints committing suicide themselves.
Looking at what happened back then from today's perspective, perhaps the saints had some plans for each other, and even achieved some goals.
But for the disciples of the two religions, especially those who are on the list of gods and those who have no chance of reincarnation, that is really not a positive experience.
Mother Wudang looked at the blazing Buddha flames on Zen Master Wujing's body and didn't think there was anything strange. It was completely normal for Zen Master Wujing to be able to cast the Great Sun Buddha Flames.
However, compared to the body of the corpse demon that was completely immune to the Buddha's flame in the past, Zen Master Wujing, who has now embarked on the path of "killing lives and karma", finally realized that his master and senior brother were burned by the Buddha's flame. The pain endured.
It can be regarded as satisfying his curiosity to a certain extent, but this is really not a wonderful experience. If he could do it again, he might not choose this way.
"Little brother." Zen Master Wujing looked at Li Bai and said with a smile: "Although the young monk's Great Sun Buddha Flame is not as pure as the master, it is still a small gain. Do you want to try it?"
Children of this age are at a stage where they are not afraid of heaven and earth, and have no fear of the three realms of heaven and earth.
If Zen Master Wu Jing dared to invite you, he would naturally dare to reach in and touch it.
"oops!"
Unexpectedly, he was assassinated.
Although his fingertips did not feel burned by the flames at all, he felt the stinging pain coming from his soul. Unprepared, he fell to the ground with a buttock.
If he were an ordinary seven-year-old child, he might not feel anything when faced with the Great Sun Buddha Flame, but this kid. When he was in Suiye City, he often went out to suppress bandits. He died along the way. There are quite a few bandits and monsters in his hands.
Even though those bandits and monsters have their own ways of taking death, taking lives is not right or wrong, it is all caused by karma.
As for the merit of protecting life, it will not be offset by the same karma, but the two sides are deeply intertwined after all, so they cannot be simply mentioned separately.
But the Great Sun Buddha Flame Refines the Heart does not look at merit, but only focuses on karma.
Otherwise, those immortals and Buddhas would not be so afraid of this magical power.
It is simply impossible for the merits and demerits to balance out in front of the Great Sun Buddha Flame.
Therefore, even the Great Sun Tathagata himself rarely displays such magical powers because he has greater karma.
"How do you feel?" Zen Master Wujing restrained his magical power and looked at the frightened little boy sitting on the ground.
Little Li Bai stood up with difficulty and said in disbelief: "Is this the magical power you call people-transferring?"
"Yes." Zen Master Wujing nodded and said, "Those who can withstand the power of the Buddha's flames and purify their entire body of karma can obtain an untainted soul."
"Then what if you can't bear it?"
"The karma belongs to the caster, and his soul is still scattered in the three realms."
"Isn't that just a matter of soul wandering?"
"Although the result is the same, the meaning of the two is different." Wu Jing corrected Xiao Li Bai. Children can easily form misunderstandings and confuse the two, but in fact, there are still differences between the two in the process. Essential difference.
However, this matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, so Wu Jing was not in a hurry.
The key point is to ask the heart, which is the heart of both the caster and the receiver.
As long as one person cannot bear it first, the result will be that the soul will return to the three realms. As for the caster who wants to use this to purify his own karma, it is actually not easy to achieve, because everyone who is saved by this Buddha's flame will have his whole body. All karma will be attributed to oneself, and the speed of purification cannot match the speed of growth of karma.
Even if one has attained enlightenment, the karma is not too much. Even if one can purify one's own karma, the other party's karma will be absorbed again after the demon is saved.
After going back and forth, he followed the example of his master and simply kept these karmas in himself, just treating them as cultivation, and did not bother to purify them.
This kind of practice method cannot be learned by others. In the entire Three Realms, they are just two masters and disciples. Even the Great Sun Tathagata, the creator of the Great Sun Buddha Flame, rarely uses this magical power to save demons and demons.
Compared to Xiao Li Bai, who had heard of the Great Sun Buddha Flame for the first time and had personally tried it, Wudang Holy Mother and Golden Hoop Immortal Ma Sui obviously knew how powerful it was.
They did not insist on trying the power of the Buddha's flame. Those demons who were "soulless" under the Buddha's flame had very intuitively demonstrated the power of the Buddha's flame to the three realms. What Zen Master Wujing said was actually the power of the Buddha's flame. A magical power to "transfer people" is not just nonsense. Didn't King Zhou get a pure and dirty soul under the Buddha's flame and reincarnate?
It is said that King Zhou was able to break through the shackles of the list of gods because Master Tripitaka gave away his own relics. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that if King Zhou had not successfully passed through the Buddha's flames to refine his heart, he would never have had this opportunity.
The Holy Mother Wudang and the Golden Hoop Immortal didn't care, but the Great Immortal Yang Li, who was a little behind, was inevitably a little disappointed. He also wanted to try the Buddhist flame, but now he saw that Zen Master Wu Jing had already given it up. It’s really not easy to ask others to use magical powers again.
In fact, the main reason was that a talisman had already fallen into his hands. Zen Master Wujing and Master Wudang both agreed that he would cast the "Holy Flame Talisman" later, so there was no entanglement.
But he was thinking in his heart: Could it be that Zen Master Wujing couldn't bear the pain of the Buddha's flames burning his heart, so he restrained his magical powers early?
Then, he couldn't help but look at Zen Master Wujing.
That is to say, the temperament of this Yangli Great Immortal is too simple. Everyone can see what he is thinking at a glance. Although it is a bit rude, everyone is very happy at the moment. Because this silly boy finally did not ask in front of Zen Master Wujing. .
When everyone was saying that he was making progress, Immortal Lu Li suddenly saw his third brother's lips moving, as if he was about to speak. He took the first step and grabbed his sleeve and said: "The Buddha Flame of the Sun is well-deserved. I am waiting for you." It’s better to see the power of this holy flame talisman!”
While talking, he pulled the sheep outside.
Great Immortal Yangli exerted force on his feet and pressed hard against him, saying, "Second brother, please wait for a while, I still have some more."
Immortal Huli stepped forward, picked up Immortal Yangli, and walked directly out of the palace gate.
The Sheep Power Immortal can wrestle with the Deer Power Immortal, but in front of his elder brother the Tiger Power Immortal, he is just a real little lamb that can be lifted and slipped with one hand.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw this. Even the virgin who had no facial expressions seemed to have a slight tremor at the corner of her mouth.
Jin Guanxian on the side said to Zen Master Wu Jing: "My disciple is incompetent and makes Zen Master laugh."
"It doesn't matter." Zen Master Wujing said with a smile: "It is true that the young monk is not good at learning. There will be some restrictions when using this magical power. It is far less durable than the master."
Zen Master Wu Jing only said a few polite words, but he had just learned this method not long ago, so it is normal for him to be inferior to the Master. If Zen Master Jing issues a challenge, he must at least be more tolerant than the Golden-winged Dapeng.
But at this time, the voice of Great Immortal Yangli came from outside.
"Listen, I will know wuwuwu——"
Zen Master Wujing, who had dealt with the Great Immortal Yang Li, knew his temperament very well, so he would not be offended by this.
Besides, as a Buddhist, he would never be so stingy.
"please!"
Ma Sui stretched out his hand and asked Zen Master Wujing to come out of the palace together.
Zen Master Wujing put his hands together and said the same: "Please."
Several people left the Biyou Palace together and saw the Great Immortal Yangli who was being repaired by the Great Immortal Huli and the Great Immortal Luli.
Naturally, Jin Guanxian would not doubt Zen Master Wujing's cultivation, but there was nothing he could do about this naive disciple. As the saying goes, a country is easy to change, but a person's nature is hard to change.
"quiet."
The Holy Mother Wudang just said one word, and the Great Immortal Yang Li immediately became honest and stood aside very obediently, without any stubbornness at all.
"Test the talisman."
"Yes." Great Immortal Yang Li agreed, and immediately poured his magic power into the talisman. He chanted the magic formula in his mouth, and pinched the seal with his fingertips. He saw a golden light flashing through the talisman, and then it ignited with fire. .
