Chapter 805 Buddha: I Am Still Confused Today

Faced with the bruised and swollen Dharma protectors kneeling before them, Buddha Tathagata and Guanyin Bodhisattva were very puzzled. Is there anyone in the world who dares to humiliate the Dharma protectors of Lingshan Buddhism like this?

Yes, this is obviously a humiliation.

The Dharma protectors of Buddhism may not be well-known in the Three Realms, but their own strength is enough to be ranked among the immortals. Not to mention being beaten, even if their physical bodies are completely destroyed, they can re-condense a body in a short time.

But now, they still maintain their pitiful appearance with bruises on their faces. It must be that the person who attacked them did it deliberately, not allowing them to recover, and letting them return to Lingshan.

Such behavior must be a provocation to his Lingshan Buddhism, and it is a blatant and undisguised provocation!

For a moment, the murderous intent that was previously annihilated by the Great Wisdom Sword actually had a resurgence.

Fortunately, the Buddha Tathagata has been practicing Buddhism for countless years. Although his Buddha heart is not as clear as the sky, there are few people in the Three Realms who can compare with him in terms of tenacity.

The moment the killing intention emerged, he was killed and suppressed by the Buddha Tathagata again. I don’t know when he will be able to get out of it.

As for the Bodhisattva Guanyin and the twenty-two guardian gods present, they did not notice this. They just felt that the temperature around them dropped a little, but for them who have already achieved the immortal body and Buddha body, the temperature change is the least obvious.

At this moment, there are only these few people in the Zen temple of the Great Leiyin Temple. The other Buddhas, Arhats, Vajra, Bodhisattvas, etc. have gained a lot from the previous Buddhist feast and went into retreat directly.

However, before retreating, he still did not forget to make some arrangements for the "Journey to the West" to gain a merit in this major event.

Back to Tathagata.

With a look of compassion on his face, Tathagata flicked his right hand, and the magic power left on the five Jiedis and the eighteen guardians of the religion was wiped out, and they quickly returned to their original appearance.

Seeing this, Guanyin, who was always good at guessing his superiors' thoughts, immediately took a half step to the right front of Buddha Tathagata, chanted the Buddha's name, and asked about some matters related to the guardian gods.

"You should follow the pilgrim to protect him. Why did you return in such a mess?"

The guardian gods, whose faces had returned to their original state and whose bodies were no longer in unbearable pain, knelt down one by one and replied respectfully: "Report to Buddha Tathagata, Guanyin, we were ordered to go to the place where the pilgrim was, and meet with the four valued officials and the six Dings and six Jias to protect the pilgrim all the way to the west."

"But when we arrived at Yingchoujian, we found that the four valued officials and the six Dings and six Jias did not appear, but A monkey who looked like the Great Sage stopped us and beat us like this with two strange knives, and sealed us in place for seven days. "

"As for the pilgrims, we searched for them for three days with injuries, but could not find their whereabouts. We just received the order from the Venerable and hurried back."

In a few words, the twenty-two guardian gods explained what they had experienced clearly, and took some of the hard work on themselves to gain sympathy points. They had been working with injuries these days.

After listening to the guardian gods' narration, Tathagata and Guanyin frowned slightly. This situation was a bit beyond his expectations.

Especially Tathagata, he cared more about the monkey that appeared out of thin air than the guardian god who was beaten.

There are not a few gods and monsters born in the monkey family in the three realms, but the only ones who can have such strength are Sun Wukong who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago and the six-eared macaque he secretly taught.

But both of them are under his control, and it is impossible for him to take action against the Buddhist guardian gods.

So there must be other forces plotting here, and there are only two forces with such power, one is the Heavenly Court and the other is Taoism.

In addition, the Four Valued Officials and the Six Dings and Six Jias that should have been sent by the Heavenly Court did not appear, so Tathagata locked his target on the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor, and then sighed helplessly.

As for the matter of obtaining scriptures, he was not worried. After all, this was a matter determined by the Heavenly Dao. Whether it was Buddhism, Taoism or the Heavenly Court, they had not yet had the ability to violate the Heavenly Dao.

After sorting out these things, Tathagata sighed and said, "Venerable Guanyin, you take the Five Jie Di and the Guardian of the Religion to the Heavenly Palace to discuss it clearly with the Jade Emperor. Previously, because of the arrival of the two true Buddhas, all of us Buddhists were busy, which made His Majesty a little unhappy."

"There is a reason for this, but this time we have to explain it clearly. When we find the current location of the pilgrims, we can return to our positions and perform our duties."

The words were finished, but Venerable Guanyin had already understood his meaning. He immediately drove the lotus platform and took the Five Jie Di and the Guardian of the Religion to the Heavenly Palace.

The Tathagata Buddha, who stayed on the top of Lingshan Mountain, leaned over and looked at the entire Xiniuhe Continent, and even the farther Nanshanbu Continent, Beijulu Continent and Dongsheng Shenzhou. His expression was uncertain, and no one knew what he was thinking.

However, a faint bad premonition lingered in his heart, causing a few inaudible cracks in his Buddha's heart, but it was soon repaired by the Buddha's light and seemed brand new.

At the same time, on the way to the west.

The best script was designed by Wang Lu's "professional pilgrimage team", and various departments and many foreign aids provided excellent assistance, as well as a capital-rich Party A father, the Origin Jade Emperor, who secretly

Oh no, this is not really "secretly".

The Origin Jade Emperor, who has one of the highest status in this world, does things without any pretense, and just does things for you directly.

This was the case with the previous Six Ding Liujia and the Fourth Level Gongcao, in order to reduce Wang Lu's presence.

There are also those monsters from heaven in the Nine-Nine-Eighty-One Dilemma, such as Taishang Laojun’s green bull, gold and silver boy, moon palace’s jade rabbit, Antarctic immortal’s white deer, etc. They directly gave up their positions to the king. Let them play freely.

In addition to the first time, he also opened the back door in disasters such as Wuzhuangguan and Fengxian County. He is really a more generous father from Party A.

By the way, although all the disasters on the journey to the West are scripted by director Wang Lu, the difficulty will not be reduced because of this, at least it must be approved by Heaven.

Therefore, in this world, Sun Wukong still needs to seek help from gods and Buddhas all over the sky, and all of this is arranged by Wang Lu's team.

Not only were the many disasters on the way to the Buddhist scriptures played by the executors of the script, but even the gods and Buddhas who came to help were played by members of Wang Lu's team and foreign aid. It can be said that they have reaped all the merits of this "Journey to the West" without giving any to Lingshan. Buddhism remains.

Tianting was Party A's father, so he didn't care about this merit. As for Taoism, the Origin Jade Emperor also made adjustments, and after taking out a few unnamed trading cards, he just let him do whatever he wanted.

In fact, the accumulated heavenly merits gained from the "Journey to the West" can only reach the level of seven or eight Buddhas. In the eyes of the supreme gods such as the Origin Jade Emperor and the Taoist Sanqing, it is nothing at all.

Compared with such a small amount of merit, being able to block the expansion of Buddhism is the most important thing.

Of course, now their goals are unanimously moving away from the three realms and looking at the more distant heavens and realms, the sea of ​​dimensions, and the mysterious dimensional stores.

Back to the topic.

Heavenly Court and Taoism had full authority to let Wang Lu and his "professional scripture collection team" do as they pleased, and they also took action to mess up the secrets of heaven to prevent Buddhists from noticing anything.

As for the mounts, pets, etc. that should have been sent down by Buddhism in the original Nine-Nine-Eighty-One Dilemma, it is not that simple.

Those mounts and pets that have descended into the lower world and turned into monsters are directly taught to be human beings (monsters?) by shop customers and peers from other worlds who serve as foreign aid. At the very least, they are beaten to a pulp.

It's even easier for those who don't have a lower realm. If you get ahead of them, it will be no problem to deal with this disaster.

For example, in the "Four Saints Testing the Zen Mind", when the four masters and disciples of Tang Monk passed through this tribulation, Lishan Old Mother, Guanyin Bodhisattva, etc. did not move. The former was watching the time, and the latter three Bodhisattvas were listening to the Dharma. I was mesmerized by what I heard.

There is no time to pay attention to this, not to mention that in the eyes of Lingshan Buddhism, this "Journey to the West" has just begun, and there is plenty of time.

It's a pity that I met a "professional learning team" from the Dimension Store, and there was also Party A's father who was secretly trying to hinder me.

So after only nine days passed after this pass, the four Buddhist monks had already boarded the old turtle in the Tongtian River and headed straight for Lingshan Mountain.

However, it is not the Buddhist pure land of Lingshan in this world, but the replica of Lingshan where Buddha Wutian sits!

On the other side, heaven.

Lord Avalokitesvara, who brought the Five Directions Revealed Truth and the eighteen guardians of Jialan, went straight to the Lingxiao Hall. Naturally, the gatekeepers of Nantian Gate still found the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and did not stop him.

Not long after, Venerable Guanyin, who saw the original Jade Emperor, briefly explained the matter, but there was also a sense of inquiry in his words.

Yuanyuan Jade Emperor Quan, who had been watching from the beginning to the end, took it as a story and then summoned the fourth level Gong Cao and Six Ding Liujia with a wave of his hand. He had a smile on his face and was obviously in a good mood.

"I have a lot of things to do these days that require them to run errands. I have forgotten what the Bodhisattva said before about collecting scriptures. If the Bodhisattva doesn't mind, I can take them all with me. There is just one thing I want the Bodhisattva to clear up."

The Origin Jade Emperor, who was very aware of Wang Lu's progress, casually asked a question. He had no intention of letting Guanyin leave so early.

Anyway, the matter over there is almost over. If we delay it for a moment or two, this matter of "seeking Buddhist scriptures from the West" will finally come to an end.

Venerable Avalokitesvara, who still thinks that the journey to the West is under control, is not impatient. He says the Buddha's name with kind eyes and a much more sincere respect in his words.

"Your Majesty, please speak. This poor monk must tell you everything he knows."

Origin Jade Emperor: "Some time ago, all the Buddhas in Lingshan returned to their places. They stayed there for nine days and nine nights. The Buddha's light shone tens of thousands of miles away in Hezhou, Xiniu. I wonder what happened?"

"Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. When the poor monk returned to Lingshan Mountain, it was I, Buddha Tathagata, who opened his kind words slightly, performed the Dharma, and preached the true results. What he preached was the wonderful scriptures of the Three Vehicles and the attainment of the five aggregates. Therefore, all the Buddhas returned to their seats and listened to the Buddha's teachings."

Although there was something wrong in my intuition, the person who asked the question was the Lord of Heaven, and Guanyin did not dare to leave rashly, so he had to avoid the important thing and blame the Buddha Tathagata.

As for the two true human Buddhas, Sakyamuni and Bodhidharma, not a single bit of news has leaked out.

Hearing this, the Origin Jade Emperor did not delve into the matter. He changed the topic and asked about the journey to the West, pretending to explore the secrets of Buddhism, but his words were full of falsehoods, and it was impossible to distinguish the true from the false.

Guanyin originally thought that she could leave with just a few words, but she never thought that His Majesty the Jade Emperor today would be so imaginative and ask weird questions, which made her have to pay great attention when trying to resist.

A few minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Thunder suddenly broke out in the sky, and ninety-nine eighty-one streaks were struck out of thin air, causing countless people with great supernatural powers in the three realms to stand up and investigate.

Sensing the impotent fury of the Heavenly Dao Consciousness, the Origin Jade Emperor knew that the matter had become a foregone conclusion, and immediately ended the time-delaying dialogue, smiling and sending Guanyin away.

Guanyin, who instinctively felt that something was wrong, immediately used his great magic power to embrace a group of guardian gods and returned to Lingshan at the fastest speed.

————————————

At this moment, the replica of Lingshan.

The four-member group of pilgrims, who did not feel anything wrong, completed their own destiny trajectory completely, and successfully obtained their own Buddha and Venerable positions under the decree of the Buddha Wu Tian.

There was no change in this regard. Tang Seng restored his true body of Jin Chanzi and became the "Sandalwood Merit Buddha", Sun Wukong was still the "Fighting Victory Buddha", and Zhu Bajie was the "Altar Purifier".

This was also the result destined by the Heavenly Dao. Neither the Buddha Wu Tian, ​​nor Wang Lu and Wang Wu had any idea of ​​changing it.

The Heavenly Dao Consciousness was already very uncomfortable with the six merits of the "Journey to the West" event. If they were to stimulate the phone now, they doubted whether they could return to the store in one piece.

Therefore, based on the idea of ​​not overdoing everything, Wu Tian Buddha did not make trouble on this point.

But this does not mean that he will not make trouble!

After conferring the Buddha's name and position on Tang Monk, Sun Wukong and others, Wu Tian Buddha sat on the lotus platform, and with a flick of his right hand, three balls of light appeared in front of Tang Monk and his disciples.

"This is the Mahayana Sutra you are looking for. There are three collections of "Fa, Lun, Jing", a total of 35 volumes, a total of 15,144 volumes, and take it back to promote the true meaning of my Buddhism."

Hearing this, Tang Monk was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Wu Tian Buddha. Then he hurriedly took the sutra and flew all the way to Datang.

As mentioned earlier, Wu Tian did have the idea of ​​making trouble, and the focus of this idea was the "Mahayana Buddhism" given to Tang Seng.

Although the content of the scriptures is very consistent with Mahayana Buddhism at first glance, it is more exquisite than Hinayana Buddhism.

But the true meaning of Buddhism contained in it is far from what Lingshan Buddhism in this world wants to promote, but it is closer to the realm of the real "Buddha".

After watching Tang Seng and his disciples, who became Buddhas in just ten days, leave, Wu Tian, ​​who was wearing a Buddha's robe, immediately changed back to his usual black monk's robe, with a smile on his lips that seemed to contain endless Zen.

"Now I am looking forward to your growth"

On the other side, the four-member group who were flying in the clouds and were given the last one to speed up by Wang Lu were flying towards the Tang Dynasty, with a speed comparable to the somersault cloud.

Then when passing by the Liusha River, they just passed by the Guanyin Venerable who was moving at full speed.

Although they were both very fast, Guanyin still saw the faces of the four people clearly: "???"

Is that the one who just passed by?

On the top of Lingshan Mountain, the Buddha Tathagata, who was constantly deducing the secrets of heaven, suddenly had a clear mind, as if the fog that obscured the secrets of heaven was blown away by the wind.

Then, the things he had been deducing came to fruition.

Knowing that Tang Monk and his disciples had completed the entire journey to the west and successfully obtained the true scriptures and returned to the Tang Dynasty, the Buddha Tathagata: "???"

For Tathagata, who is proficient in Buddhism, the amount of shock today may exceed the total of his tens of thousands of years in the past.

If emotions are materialized, then black question marks can almost fill the entire sky
