"What Taibai said is basically what I want to say..."
Di Xin sat on the throne and looked at the gods: "Who opposes and who agrees?"
Taibai Jinxing looked at the ministers with some uneasiness. This was the first time he had raised an opinion after Di Xin returned... I hope there won't be too much opposition, right?
Jia Yue gave Taibai a very meaningful look, stepped out of the queue and responded: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites agrees!"
"There's no problem with the Ministry of War!"
Nezha glared at Taibai fiercely, as if blaming him for ruining his war plan... but in the end he didn't say anything, and went out to represent the Ministry of War to express his agreement!
"The Criminal Department is fine!"
"The Ministry of Industry has no problem..."
The leaders of the gods stood up one by one and agreed with Taibai's opinion.
Di Xin was relieved when no one objected... If Taibai's explanation was not convincing, he would have to think of more reasons! Fortunately, after Taibai finished speaking, no one said anything more.
Di Xin nodded with great satisfaction: "Since all my dear friends have no objections and have reached an agreement, the matter is settled!"
"In addition, regarding the three members of the Journey to the West team and the forty catastrophes, gentlemen, please take it seriously!"
"This catastrophe is the great rise of Buddhism. It is an opportunity to improve our strength before the catastrophe. I think there must be a lot of merit in it...especially the Journey to the West team! After you all go down, you can discuss it by yourself and recommend three people to participate. Oh, by the way. , one of them will be distributed to the underworld!”
"I have only one condition... I must not interfere with the current operation of the court!"
[Actually, I would rather find people who are not firm in their stance, marginalized, and willing to seek refuge in Buddhism...]
[But which of these ministers is not a guy who climbed up from the bottom? If you can deceive them by saying these words, then you are a ghost, okay? 】
[There is no other way but to wait for them to report the quota and then do it secretly! 】
The ministers looked at each other and smiled... We all understand His Majesty's thoughts! Don’t worry, we know what to do!
——
On the other side, Lingshan Holy Land, the Western Paradise!
Tathagata came to Western Paradise with the agreement he had negotiated with Di Xin, and asked to see the two saints again!
"...Teachers, this is the deal between me and the Emperor of Heaven. At the price of forty disasters for the three members of the Journey to the West team, in exchange for the loss of the Heavenly Court's face!"
"The price is a bit high!"
Zhunti frowned and said with some dissatisfaction...According to their calculations about the journey to the West, there are five people in the Westward Journey team, and there will be ninety-nine and eighty-one disasters...Three people were traded at once, plus forty disasters. Isn't that the majority of merit? , have to be taken away by heaven?
"Two teachers, just looking at the surface, maybe we are at a disadvantage...but what if the three people sent by Heaven are all absorbed into Buddhism by us?"
Tathagata pointedly said: "Furthermore, who said that the forty hardships in which the Heavenly Court participates must mean that the Heavenly Court will gain merit?"
"Oh? Tathagata, do you have any ideas?"
Zhunti looked at Tathagata unexpectedly...could it be possible that he still had a way to take advantage of Heaven?
"For the Westward Journey team, we can set a limit... If it is a god, it must be someone who has made a mistake and been punished. Only in this way can we gain insights from the Westward Journey, improve our state of mind and cultivation faster, and be able to measure up. There is a greater role in the tribulation!"
"In this way, after doing something wrong and being punished, plus losing the position of god, we will promise a high position in Buddhism, and continue to show kindness to them on the way westward... After traveling westward, these disciples will definitely be grateful to my Buddhist sect. , join Buddhism!”
Zhunti thought for a while and became a little doubtful: "Is this plan really possible? But heaven can also promise a high position!"
"No, no, no," the Tathagata said with great confidence: "Firstly, my Buddhist skills are better at transforming people's hearts; secondly, my journey to the west will take at least twenty years, plus I have to wait for the invasion of demons. In the middle, there will be an unknown distance. Tens, even hundreds of years.
The Journey to the West team also has people from my Buddhist sect. As long as they form a deep friendship and have the comradeship to fight against the devil in the future... I am 80% sure that I can get them to join the West! "
"Once we succeed, we can reduce the combat power of Heaven and add strength to Buddhism; even if we fail, we can leave a good impression and have help in Heaven! No matter what, we will not lose!"
"good!"
At this time, Jieyin said: "This plan is feasible! No matter what race the other party is, Buddhism has corresponding scriptures and exercises. After bringing them to the team, they will be specially issued for them. Under the subtle influence of Tathagata's opinions, it is very likely to be successful. !”
"The Westbound team can do anything...but what about the forty catastrophes?"
Zhunti asked again about the forty calamities.
Tathagata smiled and said: "This matter is even simpler! It's just a catastrophe. Preparing a catastrophe is one thing, and resolving it is another!"
"Compared with the merits of unraveling tribulations, the merits of creating tribulations are very small and dispensable... I even suggest that people in our Buddhist sect must not participate in tribulations, and let the heavens arrange catastrophes... and when the time comes, only Before the start of the journey to the west, leave a deep impression on the westward journey team. When they encounter disaster, they will find me as soon as possible to solve it."
"In this way, not only can the people of the world see that there are gods in heaven who have come down to cause chaos, which will harm the reputation of heaven, our Buddhist sect is a good sect; at the same time, we can take back the merits and virtues handed over during the catastrophe through resolving the catastrophe!"
"After all, we can't control who the westbound team wants to ask for help! If they didn't ask for help from Heaven, no matter what, it can't be our fault, right?"
Tathagata's honest face obviously contained a kind and kind smile. But at this moment, there is a hint of sinister color!
"good!"
Zhunti looked happy and nodded, indicating that it was feasible.
He doesn't think Tathagata's opinions are so despicable... When he became a god, he even dared to scheme against human kings. Compared with Tathagata, it can only be regarded as a dwarf, and there is no comparison at all!
"Since you have planned this matter deeply, just try your best to do it. If heaven comes to ask for an explanation, and if you can't answer, you can blame the matter on us!"
"Thank you two teachers for your support!"
Tathagata was overjoyed. With the support of the two saints, he was even more confident about his plan to collect all the merits of the journey to the West!
"Oh, by the way," when he saw Tathagata turning around and about to leave, Zhunti suddenly said, "The person who will assist you in this journey to the west should be Guanyin (Cihang)!"
"Why?!"
The Tathagata was stunned for a moment. He also planned to hand over the merits of this assistance to his confidant Huanxi Buddha!
"reputation!"
Zhunti nodded secretly: "Guanyin has the highest belief in the world. It has three thousand incarnations and is famous for its great compassion! Three people become tigers. Sometimes reputation can cause great harm!"
"Understood!"
The Tathagata was thoughtful... nodded in agreement and walked away!
After he disappeared in the Western Paradise, Zhunti and Jie Yin looked at each other... Duobao was indeed a man destined to revitalize Buddhism! This calculation technique is really brilliant! ——
Buddhism and Heaven each have their own plans... And just when Heaven and Buddhism are discussing the members of the westbound team and how to arrange their own disasters... The Earthly Immortal Realm will win over China in the East!
There is an isolated island in the sea on the edge of Shenzhou, with a famous mountain on it, called Huaguo Mountain. This mountain is the ancestral line of the ten continents. The dragon from the three islands has been established since the clear and turbid. It was formed after the Hongmeng judged.
On the top of that mountain, there is a fairy stone. The stone is three feet, six feet and five inches high and has a circumference of two feet and four feet. Three feet, six feet and five inches high, according to the 365 degrees of the circumference; two feet and four feet around the circle, according to the political calendar, twenty-four qi. There are nine orifices and eight holes on it, according to the Nine Palaces and Bagua.
This fairy stone has a great origin. It was Gonggong who touched the mountain and caused the crack in the sky... Nuwa refined 366 pieces of five-color stones, refined them with the Qiankun Cauldron and the Phoenix True Fire, and repaired the crack in the sky!
But when the repair of the sky was finally successful, there was a spare fairy stone, which was thrown down by Nuwa, and it happened to land on the Flower and Fruit Mountain!
Originally, if it was just an immortal stone, even if it experienced the Qiankun Cauldron returning to its innate nature, it would be a good weapon refining material and would not make any big noise...otherwise, it would not be abandoned by Nuwa.
But it just so happens that at the top of the Huaguo Mountain, there is a quarter of the origin of the Chaos Demon God Chaos Demon Ape! When the immortal stone was smashed down, it happened to be fused!
The origin and the innate sacred stone are combined, and then under the rays of the sun and the moon, and the spiritual energy worship, the immortal stone breeds living beings... And the five-color sacred stone is of the same origin as the sky-repairing sacred stone, so a large part of its sky-repairing merits lies in the sacred stone. above...
With the combination of the two, just when Tathagata finally left the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and returned to the Mahavira Hall to discuss the personnel of the westbound team... the stone cracked!
"boom!"
There was a loud noise and the fairy stone exploded. Among them was a stone monkey, shaped like a golden thread, flying up into the air!
When it landed, the monkey's head was raised, and two golden lights shot into Dou Mansion, breaking through the sky, shaking the earth and heaven, and it seemed like the sky was collapsing!
Of course, if it was just the golden light in the stone monkey's eyes, it would definitely not be able to shake the heavens... But he has five-color divine stone roots and feet! The turmoil is the Sky-Mending Divine Stone, celebrating the birth of its descendants! Naturally, it alarmed Heaven, Buddhism, and even the Three Realms!
The Lingxiao Palace in Heaven... At this moment, Emperor Xin was sitting on the throne, holding a court meeting, letting the ministers compete for the disaster and the westbound team. While he was watching the excitement with his head propped up, he suddenly felt a violent shaking on the ground!
"Report!"
Gao Ming and Gao Jue, who had already entered the Jinyi Guards and were awarded the title of Clairvoyant and Shunfeng Ear, responsible for monitoring the world, strode into the palace!
"Your Majesty, the heaven was shaken just now, but a stone monkey was born in the earthly immortal world!"
"Stone Monkey?!"
【Stone monkey? Wait, it’s the Great Sage, Sun Wukong! 】
【Ha ha! My idol in my previous life, Brother Monkey, you are finally born! 】
The excitement in Di Xin's eyes couldn't be suppressed... There was even a hint of excitement in his words unconsciously: "What kind of stone monkey is it that makes such a movement when it is born?"
"It's Dongsheng Shenzhou, where the fairy egg was born on the Huaguo Mountain... It was originally the remnant of the Virgin Mother Nuwa who patched up the sky. I don't know what kind of good fortune she got, and she was able to give birth to a living soul and come to the world! Your Majesty, this monkey is not ordinary, I have to come down to earth to bring it to you. Go to heaven and train carefully?"
Gao Minggong handed over his hand and reported to Emperor Xin.
Di Xin flatly refused: "It's just a creature born from the essence of heaven and earth. It's nothing special. Why bring it?"
[Nonsense, if you brought Brother Monkey here, where would he go to learn skills? 】
[By the way, who is that Patriarch Bodhi? Zhunti? Or lead? Or... the incarnation of Hongjun? 】
[Also, how can I teach the monkeys the good things in the system gift packs quietly? so annoying! ~]
Di Xin was guessing in his mind, thinking about the origin of Patriarch Bodhi.
Below, the ministers looked at each other and raised their eyebrows...
Jiang Ziya: Brother Monkey? I remember hearing what the king said before. It should be one of the members of the westbound team, Sun Wukong, right?
Jiang Zhen (Queen of Heaven): Yes, according to the king’s chat with the system after he woke up, this monkey is highly valued by the system! Even more important than Nezha!
Nezha: No! The system gave me the Pangu version of the Nine Transformations Yuan Gong! His one is the Sanqing version, the same as Uncle Yang!
Yang Jian: ...Now that I have learned it, I have the same version as you!
Jia Yue: It seems that we have to make good friends with him... Shen Gongbao!
Shen Gongbao: Don’t worry, Jia Shangshu, leave this matter to me! I'm a professional when it comes to making friends! I promise to become close brothers with that monkey!
Above, Di Xin is thinking about how to find an opportunity to give the good things in the system to the monkey; below, the ministers in heaven are already discussing how to build a good relationship with the monkey!
On the other side, West Lingshan!
The Tathagata was having a meeting in the Main Hall, discussing who should be sent to the Westward Journey team, and arguing with the Buddhas (Lingshan also has factions!)... Suddenly, a golden light broke through from the earthly immortal world to the heavenly realm, and even in the western Lingshan Mountain, it was also This earth-shattering sound shocked me!
"WTF?"
"Is it possible that a spiritual treasure has been born?"
"impossible……"
The Buddhas were talking a lot...but Tathagata had something to say and shouted loudly!
"Silence!"
The Buddhas in the Main Hall were silent... Tathagata counted with his fingers... Is this the birth of the protagonist of the destined calamity? !
"Tathagata, come to the Paradise of Paradise!"
When Tathagata was in shock and doubt, the voice of Zhunti immediately rang in his ears!
"The saint calls, I need to rush to the Paradise of Paradise immediately to listen to the teachings! You stay here and wait for my return!"
Leaving a quick word, Tathagata stood up, stepped through the space, and arrived in front of the two saints in the Paradise of Paradise!
"The teacher asked me to come here, but for those two golden lights?"
"Exactly!"
Zhunti frowned and said: "This calamity is different from the previous designs of Hongjun! The protagonist of this calamity was decided by Tiandao himself!"
(Tiandao: Ahem, I also judged it from the voice of Emperor Xin... Although he is not one of the harems and cannot hear his voice, the record of his voice can still be seen, right?)
"Destined by Heaven?"
Tathagata was also surprised, but then he was overjoyed! The way of heaven has been decided by Himself. Doesn’t that mean that the future of this person born into this world is limitless?
"Teacher, we must not let him go, we must not let him fall into the hands of heaven!"
"I think the same way."
Zhunti nodded and said with a serious face: "You go to heaven immediately and decide that this person will be a member of the Buddhist team traveling to the west... Both the trouble in heaven and the underworld can be left to this person to complete!"
"But, if we can discover his specialness, won't Heavenly Court discover it? What if they also want to take it away?"
"Then tell them that they can let the Emperor of Heaven accept this person as his disciple...and after completing the training, the identity of the Emperor of Heaven must not be exposed! Only after the calamity has been measured can the other party be informed!"
