"Purple Xiao Palace?" Chen Luo couldn't help but frown.
This is not the first time Chen Luo heard this name. When he was in the wild wilderness, Chen Luo accidentally entered the palace of Emperor Wu in the Elephant Clan and heard this name before.
Emperor Wu's master, the master of his martial arts heart, was related to Zixiao Palace!
However, based on Chen Luo's current understanding of the world, there is a high probability that the Zixiao Palace mentioned here is not the one he knew in his previous life.
After all, if it was really the Zixiao Palace that stood in the sky, then the Three Realms would have been finalized long ago. Would they still be as chaotic as they are now?
But Chen Luo also understands that although the world he lives in is completely different from his previous life, there is a reflection in it. If he can take this name, I'm afraid the origin is not that simple!
Apart from anything else, if the Bodhisattva could rescue Chen Xuan this time, it would have to be someone of the same level.
According to the information currently known, this Zixiao Palace once produced a great scholar who condensed his martial arts and literary heart to assist Emperor Zuo Wu; now he has rescued Chen Xuan.
In other words, there is at least more than one person, and there is at least one semi-saint level sitting in the underworld, and their whereabouts connect the human world and the netherworld.
The most important thing is that the initial judgment is from the standpoint of the human race.
Is it a secret organization created by the top brass of the human race?
But... Chen Luo thought about it again and shook his head.
If it has something to do with ancient Buddhism, then the Bodhisattva Yin Xing should not be unaware of the Five Decline Stages. Even if you take a step back and say that Yi Xing Bodhisattva's level and authority are not enough, now that you have come to Netherworld in person, the ancient Buddhist sect should give you a definite feedback.
It's better than asking Yi Xing Bodhisattva to name it and letting you guess blindly.
Excluding ancient Buddhism, there are also Confucianism and Taoism.
But it’s even more unreasonable.
Judging from the owner of martial arts Wen Xin, he should be a member of the Confucian sect. However, although the Confucian sect did not stop him from going to the Netherworld for such an important matter, Chen Luo understood that Zhulin must have resisted a lot of pressure for him.
If Zixiao Palace is related to the Confucian sect, given his current importance, it is impossible that there will be no news at all.
There is still one door left.
Logically speaking, as the earliest Tongtian Avenue, with the name "Zixiao Palace", Dao Sect should be the most likely.
But the problem is, Chen Xuan herself is the Taoist Lord of the Yin and Yang Realm. If the Taoist sect has arrangements in the Netherworld, Chen Xuan's subordinate Netherworld will naturally make arrangements. There is no reason for the Taoist sect to hide it from the Confucian sect and allow him to break into the underworld.
After thinking about it this way, Chen Luo felt that Zixiao Palace should be an independent organization. However, according to the words of Thich Ning Bodhisattva, the great Bodhisattva of the White Lotus Pure Land called out this name, which shows that there is still intersection at a higher level...
"Master Yi Xing, how much do you know about the Purple Land of Zixiao Palace?" Chen Luo looked at Yi Xing.
Yi Xing shook his head slightly: "Monks do not tell lies. I have never heard of this before."
"The poor monk also reported this time to the Great Bodhisattva. The Great Bodhisattva just said that this power is extremely mysterious. The dragon sees its head but not its tail. We know the name of Zixiao Palace, but we don't know its roots."
"His members don't show their signs on their own, and you can't detect them at all."
"But what is certain is that in the vast history of the human race, Zixiao Palace has taken action several times, but each time it was helpful to the way of heaven."
"After the rise of the human race, they will naturally stand on the side of our human race. Therefore, the Great Bodhisattva said that your sister should be fine."
Chen Luo frowned slightly. Yi Xing Bodhisattva's words made him feel relieved, but he did not let go completely.
But obviously, there is only so much information that can be asked from Thich Nhat Hanh Bodhisattva.
If there are any more, people will be forced to make them up now.
"Thank you!" Chen Luo stood up and saluted.
First, I came to thank Yi Xing Bodhisattva for telling me the whole story; second, I came to thank Yi Xing Bodhisattva for going to the rescue.
"No need..." Yi Xing Bodhisattva shook his head, "White Lotus Evil Earth, evil demons and heretics, wear my precious clothes, change my scriptures, and disrupt my righteous Dharma. They are the number one bane of my Buddhism."
"Daojun Chen Xuan caused such trouble in the evil land, and I, the Buddhist sect, should thank her. It is my Buddhist sect's fault that I failed to rescue him and disturbed King Fengdu to enter the netherworld."
With that said, a group of Bodhisattvas also stood up and made eleven salutes.
Chen Luo quickly stretched out his hand to help the group of Bodhisattvas, and the two sat down again. Chen Luo suddenly said curiously: "Your Majesty told me before that the White Lotus Evil Earth is half a step ahead of Your Majesty in the competition for the Netherworld Avenue."
"The key reason lies in the Buddhist avenue in the human world."
"But I just saw you and several masters reciting scriptures, and a golden lotus emerged to eliminate disasters. Sister Shangguan also said that the meaning of Buddhist scriptures in the Pure Land of Whirlpool still exists. Could it be that the Pure Land of Whirlpool can still condense the Great Way to Heaven in the netherworld?"
This is something Chen Luo had been wondering about before. As a leader of the Way, he is very aware of the role of the Way for practitioners. The avenue is actually the source of power. Once the avenue disappears, the power will naturally be impossible to talk about.
If the skin is gone, the hair will not be attached.
But when Chen Luo learned that ancient Buddhism was in the Netherworld, this question lingered in his mind and he was puzzled to solve it.
Ancient Buddhism left the Buddhist path in the human world, but it was taken away by Buddhism in the Western Regions. Where did the power of ancient Buddhism come from in the Netherworld?
Hearing this question, the group was startled for a moment, and then their eyebrows lowered, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness in their eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Luo quickly said: "If it involves Buddhist privacy, Master does not need to answer. If there is any offense, please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter..." Yi Xing then raised his head again and said gently, "It's just King Fengdu's problem, which involves a past incident in Buddhism. When Yi Xing thinks about it, he can't help but feel sad."
"I, the master of Buddhism, am named Tathagata. Every master of Buddhism is named after Tathagata."
"The fourth generation Tathagata of Buddhism, whose Dharma name is Sakyamuni Tathagata, when I, a Buddhist, entered the underworld, I had great compassion and protected the whole family."
"After entering the netherworld, Tathagata Sakyamuni released the light of the relics, and there were forty-two white rainbows in the sky of the netherworld, connecting the north and the south."
"Wherever the rainbow light passes, it is my central pure land."
"Where Sakyamuni Tathagata is, there is a double forest of alpine trees. Sakyamuni Tathagata attained nirvana under the tree."
At this point, the group clasped their hands together and said: "Since then, I, the Buddhist, have given up on the ten thousand-mile road to heaven, but planted the path of compassion in my heart."
"The Tao is not in the sky, but in the heart!"
"In my central pure land, everyone is the master of their own way, and what opens is a compassionate heart."
"The king asked the poor monk where his strength came from. This strength comes from compassion."
"Monks like us don't want to see living beings suffer, and we don't want to let living beings suffer disaster."
"I wish to transfer all the suffering, pain, sorrow, and greed, anger, and ignorance of others to myself, and then transform them into Buddha Dharma..."
A group of monks looked at each other firmly and softly, and said softly——
“The boundless sea of suffering is before our eyes, and our body is like a boat that can sail across the sea.”
“Being burdened with suffering nourishes my heart of compassion.”
"Namo Sakyamuni Tathagata."
Hearing this, Chen Luo fell into silence.
With the blessing of the Golden Crow Fire Eyes, Chen Luo clearly saw that the body of the Bodhisattva Yixing, who was originally fair-faced, was covered in black spots.
That is a manifestation of the assimilation of the dead energy of the netherworld.
There is no Buddhist method to resolve it. They just use the Buddhist method to suppress the pain they have absorbed.
Like a small boat in the boundless sea, he keeps piling cargo called "pain" onto his boat. With more and more cargo, the ship will one day overturn.
In fact, it will be much earlier than it would have been if there was nothing.
Yi Xing seemed to see through Chen Luo's thoughts and shook his head gently: "Compassion is just a heartbeat."
“If you feel tempted, just do it.”
"Care about gains and losses will lead to greed, anger and delusion, which is no longer called compassion."
Chen Luo heard this and clasped his hands together: "Chen Luo is taught."
Speaking of this, Chen Luo remembered that it was the Whispering Pure Land who wanted to find something for him. At present, the group was just answering his own questions, so he asked: "I wonder what the Buddhist sect wants to see me for?"
"Is it related to "Journey to the West"?"
Yixing Bodhisattva smiled and nodded: "Yes. However, the poor monk is only responsible for answering King Fengdu's doubts, and it is not the poor monk who discusses the matter."
As he spoke, Yi Xing seemed to grit his teeth, turned his wrist, and a string of slightly old rosary beads appeared in his hand. At this time, Yi Xing's face instantly became a little depressed. He handed the rosary to Chen Luo: "Oh, Wang Jia, take it." Well, that’s all I can use, so I can only give away rosary beads.”
Shangguan Zhaorong subconsciously reached out to take the rosary and inspect it, but as soon as he raised his hand, he immediately realized something, looked at a row, and then took his hand back.
This rosary belongs to that person!
This rosary cannot be touched.
Chen Luo saw that the group suddenly behaved strangely, and Shangguan Zhaorong looked strange, so he took the rosary in confusion. But the moment he took the rosary into his hands, a cool feeling suddenly flowed through his body, and there were bursts of Sanskrit sounds in his ears, and his soul seemed to be cleansed. Indescribably comfortable. There seemed to be a light shining in front of his eyes, but it was not dazzling. The light revealed a slight warmth of the Netherworld and enveloped Chen Luo.
When the light dissipated, Chen Luo was stunned for a moment.
At this time, the party and Shangguan Zhaorong all disappeared, and only a long and long sigh came from behind.
"well……"
…
This long sigh made Chen Luo's heart suddenly move, as if there was an indescribable emotion, making him feel as if nothing in this world mattered.
Chen Luo slowly turned around and saw a handsome monk in white sitting casually on a stone with bare feet and bursts of Buddha light behind him. He raised his head and glanced at Chen Luo, his eyes filled with indifference, but just Sighed: "Alas..."
…
Seeing Chen Luo's figure disappear, Shangguan Zhaorong seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and looked at Yi Xing: "Yi Xing, why did that person take action personally?"
Yi Xing was also helpless and said: "The matter discussed with Wang Jia involves the foundation of my Buddhism, so only that one can do it."
Shangguan Zhaorong said worriedly: "But considering that person's... situation, can we talk to Wang Jia?"
"Don't affect Wang Jia's sanity!"
Yi Xing scratched his head: "Since he proposed to meet King Fengdu, he must be prepared."
Shangguan Zhaorong frowned: "If something goes wrong with Wang Jia, Your Majesty will definitely not let go of the Pure Land!"
…
"Alas..." The white-clothed monk sighed for the third time. Chen Luo felt that every time the other man sighed, his mood seemed to become more depressed.
who are you? When I came up, I sighed three times.
What's wrong? Am I the wall of sighs?
"Suddenly I don't want to talk anymore. You can go back." The monk in white finally spoke, but his first sentence was an order to expel him.
Chen Luo: (??へ??╬)
Although I respect ancient Buddhism, this is too rude.
I don't even bother to report my long list of titles.
Isn’t it just a great Bodhisattva? I have seen several of the semi-saints!
What kind of score is this?
Chen Luo saluted and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Since senior has no intention of communicating, please send me away!"
The monk in white clothes was about to raise his hand to cast a spell. The old rosary beads in Chen Luo's hand suddenly flew out and floated above the monk in white clothes. The golden light on each rosary beads flashed and turned into a Buddha shadow, and then black energy came from the white clothes. It flew out of the monk and entered the rosary.
Chen Luo's eyes tightened, and he could see the black energy. Although it didn't look like much, each one was at least a hundred times as much as what the Bodhisattvas had absorbed with the golden lotus just now.
This must be the pain of so many dying ghosts!
Visible to the naked eye, one of the rosary beads began to slowly turn black.
Chen Luo looked at the white-clothed monk again, and saw that the white-clothed monk stopped moving his hands, and his expression slowly changed from a world-weary look to a solemn look.
"I'm sorry!" The white-robed monk clasped his hands together, saluted Chen Luo, and said, "I have suffered too much and my mind has been affected. Please forgive me."
"This Buddha rosary can help me temporarily store the pain of these dead souls. Before they all turn black, I will not do it again."
At this time, Chen Luo looked at the black energy that was continuously flying out of the white monk's body. It could be seen with the naked eye that the edge of one of the rosary beads began to slowly turn black. He frowned and said: "After the great Bodhisattva has finished talking with me, he still needs to absorb it again." Do those enter the body?”
"Can't you just keep the rosary?"
"Of course not!" The white-robed monk said with a smile, "The rosary beads only have a temporary effect."
"It doesn't matter, there's enough time."
After saying that, the white-robed monk stood up and said, "I, the leader of contemporary Buddhism, Ksitigarbha Tathagata, have met King Fengdu."
Chen Luo:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
what's the situation? Ksitigarbha?
sorry!
I'm sorry for the complaints I made in my heart before!
…
"Wang Jia, there is no need to be formal." Seeing Chen Luo sitting obediently in front of him, Ksitigarbha Tathagata smiled lightly and said, "I also have a title in Dafeng, the Ksitigarbha King. In total, I am equal to Wang Jia."
"You and I just need to be equals."
Chen Luo shook his head quickly.
How does this work? Just because of your Dharma name, I will have to pay tribute to you even when I go back!
Seeing this, Ksitigarbha Tathagata shook his head slightly and said, "I am suppressing the Central Whirlpool Pure Land and cannot come in person, so I meet you in this way. Please don't be offended, Your Majesty."
"No, no, Tathagata is welcome!" Chen Luo quickly replied, "What is Tathagata's instruction?"
Ksitigarbha Tathagata waved his hand: "I don't dare to say anything, I really want to ask the king for something."
"Previously, Emperor Xuan had shared an unfinished manuscript with my Buddhist school, called "Journey to the West". It mentioned that the Tang Dynasty King entered the underworld, involved the six paths of reincarnation, and saved the souls of the dead. All of them are closely related to our Buddhist school."
"I know that Emperor Xuan asked Wang Jia to form the underworld, and use elegant books to help her create the road of life and death and connect the two worlds!"
"I would also like to ask the king to move his eyes slightly, look at the pure land in the center, and integrate my Buddhist teachings of six paths of reincarnation, eighteen hells, and salvation of dead souls into the underworld."
Chen Luo was slightly startled, is that all?
Don’t you tell me that’s what I planned too!
Seeing that Chen Luo did not nod immediately, Ksitigarbha Tathagata said again: "The Emperor Xuan has already given instructions on this matter, and it is up to Wang Jia to make the decision on his own."
Only then did Chen Luo realize. No wonder his uncle asked him to come to see Buddhism by himself. It turned out to be because he was afraid of embarrassing him.
"Well... will this move have an impact on His Majesty's life and death?" Chen Luo thought for a while and asked.
First of all, you have to take care of your family. If there is a problem, then you have to use your brain to see how to adjust it, and try to make everyone happy, right?
"Of course not." Ksitigarbha Tathagata shook his head slightly and said, "Not only is it not possible, it is actually beneficial."
"Wang Jia can think of the Avenue of Life and Death as a wide avenue with crowded people. And my Buddhist teachings are like setting rules in the avenue to establish order."
After saying this, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva paused for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the rosary above his head. At this time, one of the rosary beads was already black.
"The king should know my Buddhist practice in the netherworld, right?" Ksitigarbha Tathagata asked.
Chen Luo nodded: "Mercy!"
"It's a pity that it can't be considered true mercy!" Ksitigarbha Tathagata shook his head and said in a low voice, "There is no other shore in the nether world."
Chen Luowen was silent for a moment and nodded.
"If Emperor Xuan can really connect the road of life and death, and my Buddhism can run the six paths of reincarnation, then we can see the direction of the other side even in the netherworld." Ksitigarbha said with a smile.
Chen Luo understood what Ksitigarbha meant.
Buddhism is not coveting the path of life and death for the master, or fighting for some kind of authority. It is just to make the sacrifices they made today more meaningful.
They continue to bear the pain of the dead souls, but they have the opportunity to send the dead souls into reincarnation and live a new life.
Then even if they stay in the Netherworld for a long time, it will still be worth it.
"Can't we take back the thousand-mile road of the pseudo-Buddha?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.
Can Buddhism resolve those pains?
Buddhism in the underworld won't work, but Buddhism in the human world will certainly do.
The two poles of life and death, the conflict between yin and yang, must be able to solve the problem by regaining the great road of thousands of miles and connecting it to the way of heaven.
Just hearing Chen Luo's words, although Ksitigarbha Tathagata still had a kind smile on his face, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
"It can't be taken back."
"It's easy to dye white paper with ink, but it's very difficult to turn the ink paper white."
Chen Luo frowned: "Is there no way at all?"
The reason for asking this is because only he knows that "Journey to the West" has not yet entered the main topic. The following story can be summarized in a nutshell: Learn from the experience!
Get the Tripitaka Sutra of Mahayana Buddhism!
Can’t we lend a helping hand to ancient Buddhism?
Seeing Chen Luo's appearance, Ksitigarbha Tathagata put away his smile and turned serious.
If other people ask this, that is just asking.
But when the King of Fengdu in front of him asked this, there might be a slight possibility.
This kind of thing is as difficult as clearing the way, but isn't the person in front of me the master of clearing the way?
If Chen Luo hadn't mentioned it, Ksitigarbha would never have said it, but since he asked, why would Ksitigarbha not want to find some light in the sea of suffering for those compassionate disciples.
Even if you risk your life, so what!
"First, evil spirits and heretics are disrupting our righteous Dharma. We need to have the righteous Dharma heard and heard throughout the world. Let the world know that this great road to heaven is for heretics!"
Chen Luo was puzzled: "This has long been rumored in the world. Confucianism and Taoism have almost acquiesced in this matter."
"Not enough!" Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva shook his head, "The so-called seeing and hearing of the Dharma requires everyone's hearts to be aligned with the Dharma. When Emperor Xuan connects the two realms, this Dharma-oriented heart can be connected with our teachings."
"Secondly, the old avenues are of no use. A new Buddha Lord should be established and open a new Buddhist avenue to lead us back."
"Only by achieving these two items, can my Buddhist dharma return to the human world!"
Chen Luo lowered his head and pondered carefully.
These two items are indeed difficult to call others.
But for him, it seems...
Zhengfa Audiovisual, if "Journey to the West" is slightly adjusted, it may be okay. Besides, there is also "The Biography of Jigong"!
In the past, "The Biography of Jigong" was not published because it was worried that it would beautify the image of Buddhism in the Western Regions and allow them to cheat, but we can use "Journey to the West" to distinguish one from the other.
As for the new Buddhist Avenue...
Isn’t there one hidden in the sea of my soul?
But that’s an illusory avenue, and I don’t know if it’s useful!
Chen Luo let out a breath and did not immediately tell Ksitigarbha Tathagata about these two things. After all, it was a matter of great importance, so I had to give it a try first, then discuss it with my uncle before making a plan.
"I've written it down." Chen Luo looked at Ksitigarbha Tathagata and said seriously.
Ksitigarbha Tathagata didn't expect Chen Luo to agree immediately. He just smiled and nodded: "Wang Jia is serious."
"If you need my help, just ask."
Chen Luo nodded, hesitated, and then said: "Now that I have said this, there is something that has been bothering me for a long time. I wonder if Tathagata can help me clear it up?"
Ksitigarbha Tathagata raised his head again and looked at the rosary above his head. At this time, the rosary was half black, and then he said: "If there is enough time, I will never hide it."
Chen Luo took a deep breath, exhaled it again, and then asked: "What happened in the first place that made Buddhism decide to abandon the ten thousand-mile path to heaven and enter the netherworld?"
