"You carry the load and I lead the horse."
"Welcome the sunrise and bid farewell to the sunset."
"Smooth the bumps and turn them into a great road, overcome the difficulties and dangers and start again... and start again..."
"La la... la la la la la la la la..."
"Spring, autumn, winter and summer, ups and downs..."
"May I ask where the road is? The road is at your feet..."
"Dare to ask where the road is...the road is at your feet..."
Chen Luo hummed a familiar melody and wrote the last chapter of "Journey to the West" with all his heart.
I still remember the scene where the Monkey King was born when I wrote the first chapter of Journey to the West on Fangcun Mountain;
Don’t you see, Sun Wukong is making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, fighting hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers;
Don't you see the Tathagata moving the Dharma, the five-finger mountain pressing down...
Avalokitesvara came to the west, explained the Mahayana Buddhism, and inspired Xuanzang to go west to seek scriptures, which kicked off the vigorous journey to the west.
There is a giant monster that reaches the sky; there is a pink skull; there are gods coming to earth, and there is also an infatuated daughter;
Every step is difficult, every stop is a calamity.
Finally, it came to an end.
Although it was just a book, Chen Luo was filled with sadness until the last time he wrote it.
"Journey to the West" is Chen Luo's book of enlightenment, which made Chen Luo's Nine Thousand Miles a success.
The bloodline of Tiandao is shown in the book for free, connecting with Tiandao, breaking the tradition of the demon clan respecting ancestors but not heaven, helping Chen Luo stabilize the name of the demon clan's holy master, and directly allowing the human race to take the upper hand in the legal system of heaven. right.
This is also Chen Luo's longest serialized book so far, lasting a full year.
Now, it's finally coming to an end.
…
However, in the book, the four masters and disciples of Monk Tang returned to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. The heads of several pine trees in Hongfu Temple where Xuanzang lived before he left all faced east. The monks who had followed Xuanzang knew that Monk Tang was back.
When Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty learned that Xuanzang had returned, he was overjoyed and welcomed him personally. When he arrived at the court, Xuanzang told the Emperor about what he had seen and heard, and he also took out a customs clearance document, which had the seal of "Baoxiang" on it. The national seal of Wuji, the national seal of Chechi, the national seal of Xiliang Nu, the national seal of Jisai, the national seal of Zhuzi, the national seal of lion and camel, the national seal of Bhikkhu, the national seal of destroying France; there are also the seal of Fengxian County, the seal of Yuhua Prefecture, and the seal of Jinping Prefecture. Seal" is enough to show the journey.
Xuanzang then introduced his three disciples and Bailongma to Emperor Tang one by one, and Emperor Tang treated them with courtesy. Later, Tang Huangkou wrote a poem and named it "Holy Religion Preface"!
…
But Chen Luo didn't know that when he had just finished writing the "Holy Religion Preface", Wang Zian, who was listening to music in Goulan, suddenly frowned and looked in the direction of Duke An's mansion.
"Luck...has changed..."
"It's not the movement of Qi of the bloodline of Heaven, but... the Qi of the Great Dao?"
"what's the situation?"
Wang Zi'an tapped his fingers on the table, and then his figure flashed and disappeared.
…
At the same time, the imperial study room.
His Majesty Daxuan Ye Heng, who was reviewing the memorial, suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked sideways at the jade seal at hand.
The jade seal trembled slightly, and the sound of Zen chanting seemed to come from it.
"Um?"
Ye Heng put his hand on the jade seal with a suspicious look on his face?
"Edict seals the avenue?"
Ye Heng: (???)
Do I still have such a day?
No, where is this avenue?
Ye Heng stood up, holding the jade seal and looking around.
I stopped writing and couldn't read the book. I looked around at a loss while holding the seal.
…
Naturally, Chen Luo didn't know the connection between Wang Zi'an and Ye Heng at this time, so he continued writing.
After singing the "Preface to the Holy Religion" and using Lixianzhai, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty asked Xuanzang to recite the scriptures on the spot. Xuanzang said that he needed a real Buddha place to recite, so Prime Minister Xiao recommended Yanta Temple, but Xuanzang had not recited much yet. , the Eight Great Vajras shouted in the air, summoning Master Xuanzang and his disciples to return to Lingshan with them. So Tang Monk and his disciples and the white dragon horse created a fragrant breeze and headed west. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty ordered Buddhists all over the world to copy Buddhist scriptures and spread them throughout the world.
…
"Hey hey hey, what happened?"
Outside Duke An Guo's mansion, the demon detectives guarding here looked at the sky with astonishment on their faces.
At this time, there were actually golden lotus phantoms appearing in the sky above Anguo Gong's Mansion. However, at this moment, those golden lotus phantoms were still holding back, but just like that, just one look at those golden lotus phantoms made me feel calm and clear. Feeling refreshed.
…
At this time, the scene in the book changed. Tang Monk and his disciples had crossed thousands of rivers and mountains and came to Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan again.
In terms of process, the Buddhist scriptures were sent back to the East and the border with the Tang Emperor was completed. This time, the Buddhism's eastward expansion plan, which started with Wei Zheng slaying the dragon and finally returned from collecting scriptures, has been fully completed.
Next, it’s time to reward based on merit——
The Tathagata said: "Holy Monk, you were my second disciple in the previous life, and your name was Jin Chanzi. Hundreds of years ago, you went east to spread the Dharma and were killed by the false Buddha. Fortunately, the Buddha's heart has never been extinguished, and the true spirit has not been lost. After ten years, The reincarnation of the world. Now you are glad to take refuge, adhere to my teachings, and take advantage of my teachings to take the true scriptures. You will have great merits and achievements, and you will be promoted to the great office and achieve the right results. You are the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit."
"Sun Wukong, because you made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, I used my profound magical power to suppress you under the Five Elements Mountain. Fortunately, the natural disasters were satisfied and you returned to Buddhism. I am also happy that you concealed evil and promoted good. You made great achievements in refining demons and subduing monsters on the way. From the beginning to the end, you will be promoted. With the great vocation and righteousness, you will fight to defeat the Buddha."
"Zhu Wuneng, you are the water god of the Tianhe River and the marshal of Tianpeng. I drank too much and played with Xian'e for you at the peach party. I demoted you to the lower realm and was reborn like an animal. Fortunately, you remember to love the human body and committed evil in Yunzhan Cave of Fuling Mountain. Happy Return to a great sect, join my ascetics, and keep the holy monks on the road, but you still have stubbornness and lust. Because you have done a good job in shouldering the burden, I will promote you to the right fruit of your position and be the messenger of the pure altar."
"Sha Wujing, you were originally a general who rolled up the curtains. First, you were demoted to the lower realm because you broke a glass cup at a peach party. You fell into the Liusha River, hurting living things and eating people. Fortunately, you converted to my religion. You sincerely respect me and protect the saints. Monk, if you have meritorious service in climbing mountains and leading horses, you will be promoted to a great position and become a golden Arhat."
"White Dragon Horse, you are the son of the Dragon King of Guangjin in the Western Ocean. Because you disobeyed your father's orders and committed the crime of unfilial piety, you were fortunate enough to take refuge in the Dharma and my ascetics. Every day, my family owes you for carrying the holy monk to the West. Thanks to you for carrying the Bible on your way to the East, and for your meritorious service, I will promote you to the rank of Eight Heavenly Dragons and Horses."
As Chen Luo's Five Saints came true, Chen Luo wrote out the rewards one by one, and the outside world changed one after another.
…
Southern wilderness.
Suddenly, blood clouds gathered in the sky, and all the monsters with cultivation levels above the Great Sage raised their heads and looked at the sky.
In the sky, a shadow of a strange stone appeared.
This strange stone is no stranger to the monsters. It was the bloodline phenomenon that appeared when Yuan Bubai condensed the bloodline of the ancestral demons. However, at this time, the shadow of the strange stone trembled slightly, and cracks appeared on it.
】
Countless ancestral demons gathered their spiritual thoughts and looked at the phantom of the strange stone, their souls filled with surprise and doubt.
"Are you going to break out of the stone?"
"What did Master Baishan do again?"
"Send a letter to Zhongjing quickly to find out what happened."
In Junji Country, Yuan Bubai and the other two ancestral demons of the ape tribe looked at the phantom of the strange stone that was about to be broken, with excitement on their faces.
"Invincible, that's..."
"Well, it was Master Chen who gave the ape clan the opportunity!"
"Why haven't you broken out of the stone yet..." the oldest ape ancestor asked in confusion.
Yuan Bubai looked solemnly, looked at the strange stone, and sighed deeply.
"Without the connection of the great road, the power of heaven cannot be attracted..."
Immediately, Yuan Bubai's expression became firm again: "Master Chen must have a solution!"
…
Sea of clouds.
In the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, the huge Yunlong Dragon Emperor was curling up with his dragon body and suddenly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, he seemed to see a white horse turning into a white cloud dragon while running.
"Is this... the true dragon's method?"
"It's a pity. Without the support of the great road, how can we let the hybrid dragon..."
"Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water..."
After saying that, Emperor Yunlong closed his eyes again.
…
"Journey to the West" continues.
Having perfect merits and attaining Buddhist status is only the first step.
Next, the Dao Dao in the book needs to be approved.
So - "At the time of the attainment of the Five Saints, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, holy monks, Arhats, Jieyi, Bhikkhus, Upasikas, gods, great gods, Dingjia, Gongcao, Jialan, etc. from various mountains and caves, In the land, all the masters and immortals who have attained the Tao have come to listen to the lecture at the beginning, and now they all return to their respective places.”
"Everyone put their palms together to take refuge, and all recited: Namo the Ancient Buddha of Burning Deng. Namo Medicine Master Glazed Light King Buddha. Namo Sakyamuni Buddha... Namo Sandalwood Merit Buddha. Namo Victory in Fighting Buddha. Namo Guanyin Bodhisattva... Namo Pure Altar Envoy Bodhisattva. Namo Eight Treasures Golden Bodhisattva Arhat Bodhisattva. Namo Eight Tribes of Heavenly Dragon Guangli Bodhisattva."
This thing is the row of seats after the newly sealed fruit status. If everyone reads it, it will spread throughout the three realms and be recognized by heaven.
Only at this point can we truly achieve success.
In particular, the status of Zhu Bajie, Monk Sha and Bailongma is Bodhisattva, not messenger, Arhat, or Celestial Dragon. Those are just their names.
"The Buddhas of all the worlds like this are willing to use this merit to adorn the Buddha's Pure Land. To repay the fourfold kindness to others, and to relieve the sufferings of the three paths below."
"If anyone sees and hears it, please arouse bodhicitta. We will be reborn in the Land of Ultimate Bliss, and we will repay this body."
"All Buddhas in the ten directions and three times, all Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas, Mahaprajnaparamita."
Chen Luo let out a long breath.
He paused for a moment, raised his pen, and wrote the last six words.
"'Journey to the West' is here, the end!"
…
When Chen Luo wrote the last word, a fragrant breeze suddenly filled the study room, and then immediately spread to a street, a district, a city...
The bells and chimes rang, and the sound of Zen chanting sounded in the place where the incense wind drifted.
Chen Luo's eyes narrowed and he quickly appeared outside Duke Anguo's mansion.
At this moment, under the sky, in Daxuan and Nanhuang, wherever the manuscript of "Journey to the West" exists, the elegant words on the manuscript all separate from the manuscript, turning into streaks of golden light, shooting into the sky.
For a moment, the entire world seemed to be connected by golden threads.
In mid-air, a magnificent school palace emerged, and an ethereal Blessed Land Immortal Palace revealed its shape.
Even from the direction of Mantian, countless gazes were cast towards him.
The sky seemed to be dyed golden by Yawen's golden light at this time. In this golden sky, everyone saw those unclear figures flickering.
There are figures standing with sticks, arrogantly looking down on the enemies; there are figures kneeling in front of the tower, worshiping devoutly; there are figures fat, wielding a rake; there are figures strong, carrying burdens forward, and there are dragon shadows whirling, turning into strong white horses.
Then, the shadows changed one by one, there were bears, bones, wolves, scorpions...
Until finally, the shadow turned into a solemn majestic palace.
But at this moment, Chen Luo's eyes narrowed slightly.
This Great Hall is not a shadow of the evolution of heaven, but... a photo of what he saw when he got to Fangcun Mountain.
In the Main Hall, all the Buddhist disciples were sitting peacefully. Then the roof of the Main Hall was destroyed, and a big black hand stretched out...
At this time, the great Bodhisattva sitting in the Tathagata's position showed a smile and softly chanted: "The common people protect me, and I protect the common people."
"All disciples of the Buddha, please be compassionate and follow me to death."
All the disciples of the Buddha put their hands together and said in unison: "I wish to follow the Tathagata and exchange my life for all living beings."
Tathagata smiled slightly, raised his head, and looked at the big black hand that pressed down: "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
As the words fell, the Tathagata's physical body quickly withered and turned into a set of withered bones in the blink of an eye, but a Vajra Dharma stood up from the withered bones and rushed towards the big black hand.
At the same time, all the disciples of the Buddha in the Mahavira Hall were smiling one by one, and their bodies quickly decayed. However, a Vajra with angry eyes rushed out from the decay and followed the Tathagata away.
Subsequently, the main hall collapsed and the shadow gradually dissipated.
At this time, countless pairs of eyes in the world who witnessed this phantom were filled with shock.
"Then...what is that?"
"Isn't there that scene in Journey to the West?"
"Could that be the real Buddhism?"
"Is that ancient Buddhism?"
At this time, in the sky, a long sigh came from the temple; deep emotions also came from the Taoist palace.
But all this was not over. Chen Luo looked at the sky where the shadows dispersed, and raised a hand. Suddenly, the golden color on the sky rushed towards Chen Luo's palm. In the blink of an eye, Chen Luo's palm seemed to be holding his hand. A golden sun.
At this moment, Chen Luo understood what the spirit of "Journey to the West" was?
With a thought in his mind, the colorful shadow of martial arts was projected on the sky again.
Chen Luo let go of his hand, and the golden sun in the palm of his hand immediately merged into the martial arts shadow. In an instant, the golden light above the martial arts shadow shone brightly, and in this golden light, a golden avenue slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes. .
"Fuck!"
"The Cotai Strip!"
"Buddhist Avenue!"
"Martial arts gave birth to a new Buddhist avenue!"
"Anguo bullshit!"
"This martial arts gave birth to the Taoist Immortal Way, the Buddhist Zen Way, and only Confucianism is left!"
"Confucianism has a dark heart. It doesn't matter if you live or not..."
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the world, and Chen Luo looked at this illusory golden avenue and breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally exposed.
But in this current situation, let it be exposed!
An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law!
In the holy church, all the saints looked at the golden avenue with expressions of "Sure enough," they all said.
This kid really embodies the Buddhist path.
However, how does Heaven treat the two Buddhist avenues?
After all, that stretch of land in the Western Region is thousands of miles long!
Just when the saints were confused, Chen Luo clasped his hands together and said in the voice of the great road——
"The false Buddha is disrupting the Dharma, and the previous path must be abandoned!"
"In the name of the Master of the Martial Arts, the Master of the New Buddha, I call upon the ancient Buddha to return!"
Chen Luo bowed slightly. This bow was a salute to the way of heaven in the name of the master of martial arts and the master of the new Buddha.
Immediately, the shadow of a scroll of Buddhist scripture suddenly appeared on the golden avenue.
This is the spirit of the book "Journey to the West".
Tripitaka Sutra!
Paving the way for the ancient Buddha to return.
At this time, the Buddhist scripture slowly unfolded...
…
Netherworld, the pure land whirling in the center.
The Buddha's light shone again on the bodies of the 5,048 great Bodhisattvas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats, and behind each of them, a phantom of a Buddhist sutra appeared.
Thich Ning Bodhisattva was also among them, and he felt a suction force that seemed to take him to another place.
At this moment, he looked at Ksitigarbha Tathagata sitting on the top of the main hall.
If we talk about light, the light on Ksitigarbha Tathagata is the strongest.
"Tathagata!" Chen Luo's clone appeared in front of Jizo, "The road back has been paved. Please return to Tathagata to rectify the Buddha's Dharma!"
Tathagata glanced at the monkey in front of him, now full of Buddhist charm, and sighed softly.
"well……"
"I am the wick of last night, unable to light up the darkness of tomorrow."
"The two worlds are unified, and the six paths of reincarnation are reincarnated. I can see countless creatures carrying karma, descending into the underworld, into hell, having delusions in the world of mortals, and suffering in the underworld."
"Guanyin can turn Cihang, and Ksitigarbha can also save all sentient beings!"
"Go ahead and take them with you!"
"I'm here, don't worry!"
After saying that, Ksitigarbha Tathagata glanced at this incarnation again and said: "To travel thousands of miles, all the bodies need to be united. Now that I am going to the human world, the road is stable, and this incarnation can be compatible with this deity."
"You still sit on the lotus platform and call yourself Tathagata!"
After saying this, Ksitigarbha Tathagata clasped his hands together and closed his eyes slightly.
Chen Luo's incarnation heard the words, saluted Ksitigarbha Tathagata, turned around and said to the five thousand and forty-eight Bodhisattvas: "Return to the human world!"
"I will obey the Tathagata's decree!" all the Buddhist disciples responded with their hands clasped together. Ksitigarbha Tathagata's words just now have officially transferred the Tathagata's position to Chen Luo.
Immediately, those Buddhist disciples turned into streaks of golden light and fell into the Buddhist scriptures behind them. The Buddhist scriptures rolled up and dissipated in place.
Chen Luo glanced at Ksitigarbha again, and Ksitigarbha sighed softly——
"Until hell is empty, I will never become a Buddha!"
“Only by saving all sentient beings can we realize Bodhi!”
…
world.
On the golden avenue, rolls of Buddha light were shining. Chen Luo turned his head slightly and looked at Ye Heng who was on the observation deck of the palace.
Ye Heng sensed Chen Luo's eyes and immediately understood.
"In the name of Emperor Daxuan, I decree that this path is the path of Zen Buddhism. It will be recognized by the human race and exist under the path of heaven!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the light of luck immediately bloomed in the jade seal, and countless luck from heaven and earth poured into the volume. At this time, Chen Luo's incarnation appeared in the golden avenue.
"Disciples of Zen Buddhism should abide by the laws of the imperial court and become human beings first and then monks."
"Follow the Tathagata's decree!"
Until this moment, the phantoms of the scrolls of scriptures unfolded, and compassionate figures walked out of the scriptures!
In the blink of an eye, the golden avenue was filled with five thousand and forty-eight figures, with an overwhelming momentum.
"Huh? Third-grade Bodhisattva?"
"Those are...first-grade Bodhisattvas!"
"Great Bodhisattva! Oh my God, there is actually a Great Bodhisattva!"
"They...were all in the Netherworld before?"
"So what happened?"
At this moment, Chen Luo's incarnation appeared on the avenue. He and Chen Luo looked at each other and nodded.
"Everyone, what arrangements do you need us to make?" Han Changli's words came from the church. The incarnation of Chen Luo smiled slightly and cupped his hands towards the temple.
"No need to bother you."
"The Western Region should be the land of true Buddha!"
After the words fell, the five thousand and forty-eight Buddhist disciples laughed together, and then stepped out and walked towards the west. Just as they walked, the more than five thousand kind-faced and kind-eyed Bodhisattvas turned into more than five thousand Buddhas. The ferocious King Kong!
In the Netherworld, across the path of heaven, there is nothing we can do.
In the human world, we, the Buddha, no longer want that Buddhist avenue!
Let's flip the table!
Almost in the blink of an eye, the traces of the Buddha disappeared in the sky, but everyone's eyes were turned to the Western Region.
All fools know that the battle for the true Buddha in the Western Region has begun!
But at this moment, Chen Luo was still looking at the golden avenue in the sky with a gloomy expression.
Nine thousand miles are solidified, but the last thousand miles are still empty.
It seems that it is only possible to bind the martial arts to Wanli.
As for the matter of the unity of incarnations mentioned by Ksitigarbha Tathagata, there is no rush for the time being.
Let the avatar go make some noise first!
However, Journey to the West is over and the Zen-Buddhist Way is here, and there are still a few little easter eggs!
Chen Luo raised his hand and tapped lightly towards the golden avenue!
…
Southern wilderness.
The demons were still shocked by the scene of the ancient Buddha's return, when the blood cloud over the southern wilderness suddenly sounded like thunder.
The next moment, a bolt of lightning fell and struck directly at the phantom of the strange stone.
The phantom of the strange stone that was already full of cracks exploded, and a figure jumped out from the strange stone. In an instant, the sky in the southern wilderness changed color.
A phantom of a monkey stands on the clouds, overlooking all directions, looking domineering.
"This is... the bloodline of the Emperor Demon!"
"Lingming Stone Monkey?"
"Sure enough! Damn, those monkeys made a big mistake!"
Junji country.
At this moment, it is already a sea of joy.
Have a party! Have a party!
Monkeys of all sizes were in groups, running back and forth between the mountains, shouting incessantly.
"We have the blood of the Emperor Demon!"
"Master Chen is mighty!"
"Always follow the human race!"
"Submit! Submit! Submit immediately!"
Wutong forest.
The Qinglong Emperor looked at the phantom of the bright stone monkey in the sky and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Hmm...Emperor Demon bloodline."
"But it's still worse than the Four Spirit Emperor Demon."
But as soon as the Qinglong Emperor finished speaking, he saw the phantom of the clever stone monkey suddenly swaying, and a figure walked out of the body again. The figure was wearing a cassock and had his hands clasped together.
"Fight the Buddha!"
The Azure Dragon Emperor suddenly stood up.
"If you follow the path of blood, you can become a spiritually enlightened stone monkey!"
"If you follow the path of Zen Buddhism, you can become a Buddha in fighting and victory!"
At this moment, Emperor Qinglong, who had always been calm in ancient times, was speechless.
There were a few lemons on the sycamore tree behind him.
…
On the other side, Yuan Hai.
Yunlong Dragon King lamented.
"His mother-in-law is going to add another dowry!"
"Yunlong can't stand the fact that you are so swollen... all your scales are gone!"
…
Zhongjing.
Chen Luo put away the shadow of the avenue and fell into the Anguo Duke's mansion.
The new way appears, the ancient Buddha returns; the Holy War in the Western Regions, the bloodline of the emperor demon...
Today's incident is destined to attract a lot of attention, but he has no intention of participating.
When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and goes away, hiding his merit and fame.
A real man never looks back to see an explosion.
Now, all he has to consider is the long journey.
Because just now, he sensed that his cultivation level had reached the pinnacle of the first level.
Only the martial arts Dao Ten Thousand Miles, and the Earth Immortal Dao and Zen Buddha Dao bound to the martial arts can follow him to reach Wanli.
It's time to take another step forward...
