The King of Fortune

Chapter 445 Jin Chanzi

Tathagata got his wish and got the title of Buddha. After returning to Lingshan, a Buddhist conference was held immediately.In this world, there are only a handful of people who can be called ancestors, not counting the younger brother Bodhi, his ancestor's name is self-proclaimed.

And the relatively authoritative figure in the Three Realms, Patriarch Hongjun, has been recognized by the practice community since ancient times, so there is no need to mention the Dao of Heaven.In addition, it is Lao Tzu, the leader of the Taoist sect, who is known as the ancestor of Taoism. As for Zhen Yuanzi, he has not been taken seriously by the Tathagata. Thin, it is difficult to support his name as the ancestor of the earth immortal.

As the Buddha himself, he can be regarded as having a well-known reputation in the Three Realms, which is of great significance to spreading the way of Bodhi.Having just won the territory, what Tathagata wants to do now is to let the way of Bodhi quickly take root in his own territory.

Tathagata felt that it was a bit of a trick. When Xiniu Hezhou was not in charge, he wanted to preach, but the conditions did not allow it.Now with this condition, the Jade Emperor is in charge of the three realms of heaven, earth and man. Without his nodding, he can't do anything.

In this meeting, there were lanterns, Ananda, Kassapa, Jin Chanzi, four Vajras, four Bodhisattvas (only three now), and five hundred Arhats. The grand hall of Lingshan was crowded. of.

Originally, the Tathagata planned to enshrine eight Bodhisattvas, but there was no suitable candidate for the time being, so he settled for the next best thing and only enshrined four Bodhisattvas.Once Puxian died, he was looking for a suitable replacement, but that person had some relationship with the Heavenly Court, and Tathagata was still hesitating.

"Everyone, since the establishment of our Buddhism, there has only been one Buddha country so far, which is shabby. This deity plans to establish 23 more Buddha countries, making up the number of 24. You are all my Buddhist elites, and it is imperative to spread Buddhism. The next step is you It's time to make meritorious service for the teaching."

24 Buddha Kingdom, as early as in the Buddhist planning, the Tathagata has already planned it, but it is difficult to implement it due to lack of territory.

As soon as the words fell, Ksitigarbha King said: "World Honored One, this little monk made a great wish back then. Hell is not empty, and he vowed not to become a Buddha. Therefore, this mission of preaching, I am afraid that it will be difficult for this little monk to perform. Please forgive me."

Back then, when he made this great wish, Ksitigarbha was willing to go all out, but he found a very serious problem. He wanted to empty the hell, which was almost whimsical. The only hope, perhaps, is to wait until Buddhism becomes truly powerful and becomes the largest force in the Three Realms. Bar.

Tathagata said: "Your mission, the deity knows, so you can stay in the underworld with peace of mind."

At the beginning, Tathagata recommended Ksitigarbha to the Jade Emperor for the reason of saving evil spirits, so Ksitigarbha suppressed the underworld and saved the souls of the dead.This is the only disciple of Buddhism in the establishment of the heavenly court. Of course, the real decision-makers of the underworld are the five emperors and the ten kings of Hades.

Ksitigarbha said, "Thank you, World Honored One."

Tathagata nodded, and said again: "Jin Chanzi, you are my disciple, and you should set an example for spreading Buddhism, so you will go down the mountain to preach."

Jin Chanzi said: "World Honored One, my disciple has been in charge of transcribing scriptures since he came to Lingshan Mountain. He has never been down the mountain, and he has never taught the Dharma. He is clumsy in speech and tongue. , the disciple recommended the two of them."

The golden-nosed white-haired mouse waited for him to feed her every day. Once he went down the mountain, wouldn't she starve every day? Jin Chanzi would not be willing.

When Ananda and Kasyapa heard this, they secretly scolded Jin Chanzi for being unkind. It is a hard job to spread the Dharma, because what they are facing is a group of ignorant ordinary people, and they cannot use magic spells on them, they can only use Dharma to enlighten them. No, there is still a prison sentence.

They also went to Tianzhu to teach the Dharma before, and they were kicked out a few times, and once they were directly smashed by eggs and vegetable leaves.

Kasyapa said: "World Honored One, for preaching Buddhism, I teach my disciples, everyone is responsible. Jin Chanzi has excellent understanding, and I think he is more competent than my disciples, so my disciples recommended him."

The Tathagata knew all about the trio's thoughts, and said, "You don't have to argue, this time it's Jin Chanzi, and next time it's Ananda and Kassapa's turn."

Jin Chanzi was very anxious, and hurriedly said: "World Honored One, my disciple has been feeling unwell recently, I'm afraid..."

Tathagata said in a deep voice: "Jin Chanzi, why do you evade the preaching so much, what is your intention? Needless to say, you have to go this time, or you have to go if you don't!"

"The disciple takes orders."

Jin Chanzi sighed and had no choice but to agree.

Tathagata's complexion softened a little, and he ordered Manjushri and Dazizai Bodhisattva again. Five hundred arhats ordered a few arhats, and then let them go down the mountain.After arranging these, the Tathagata said some developments about Buddhism, and then asked everyone to retreat.

"Brother, how to arrange the six-eared macaque and the yellow wind monster."

Patriarch Bodhi said slowly, at the beginning he secretly pointed out that after the two escaped from the Heavenly Court, they are now hiding in Lingshan.

Tathagata frowned, and muttered: "Temporarily arrange in Lingshan. After a while, when the wind has passed, let them find a place to hide."

Patriarch Bodhi said: "It's okay for the six ears to listen to what the poor Taoist says. It's just that Huangfeng monster. The poor Taoist sees this monster as bullying and fearful. If one day, people from the heavenly court come to him, I'm afraid he will confess my Buddhism. so……"

He didn't finish his sentence, but Tathagata understood it, glanced at the other party, and said: "Your brother is thoughtful, and I will leave this matter to you."

Patriarch Bodhi nodded.

……

In the Sutra Pavilion, Jin Chanzi looked extremely focused, transcribing the scriptures, he will go down the mountain tomorrow, and today's work must be completed before dark.Suddenly, with a creaking sound, a mouse crawled under his feet, a soft look flashed in his eyes, he bent down, and picked up the white mouse with both hands.

"I'm going down the mountain tomorrow, and I can't prepare food for you anymore. Before I come back, you don't have to come to this scripture pavilion again."

Jin Chanzi is a golden chan who attained the Tao. Before breaking out of the cocoon, he stayed in the ground. From then on, he met this white mouse. The two had a deep relationship, and they were accepted as disciples by Tathagata .

Because of their outstanding talents, one was named Jin Chanzi and the other was named Golden Nosed White Haired Mouse.

At the beginning, Buddhism implemented the castration system, which was mainly aimed at those disciples with ordinary identities. Those who were born in the golden class like Jin Chanzi were naturally excluded.

Hearing this, the golden-nosed white-haired mouse turned into a beautiful woman and said softly, "Brother Chan, when you go down the mountain, I will go down the mountain together. Back then, when we were underground, you and I swore that we would never leave each other."

Jin Chanzi said with a stern face: "Nonsense, I'm here to preach Buddhism, not to play. What are you doing with me, besides, how can you leave this Lingshan without the consent of the World Honored One?"

The golden-nosed white-haired mouse said with a smile: "Brother Chan, don't forget my identity. If I want to leave Lingshan, even if there are nets all around, I won't be troubled. I don't care. Anyway, I will go wherever you go!"

Jin Chanzi had a headache, and tried to persuade him: "I'm going, it's not that I won't come back, you follow me, how to preach. Besides, if I preach with a woman, it's really absurd."

The golden-nosed white-haired mouse didn't listen at all: "When you go to preach, I will change back to my original shape and get into your sleeve. How will it affect the preaching."

Jin Chanzi had no choice but to agree with her for a while, thinking that anyway, the white-haired mouse doesn't go to the Lingshan Hall to listen to lectures, so it rarely appears in everyone's sight, and even if it disappears for a while, it won't be noticed.
