Journey to the West: At the beginning, Guanyin chooses three stone monkeys

Chapter 4 I Choose Ordinary Lingming Stone Monkeys
Seeing that Guanyin wanted to snatch it, Juan Xiaolian smiled disdainfully, and said:
"Young Guanyin Bodhisattva, as long as you are an honest person and answer my questions, I can give you all three monkeys."

"If you want to rob by force, this is impossible. Do you understand everything?"

"Young Guanyin, you have to be honest!"

now!

Avalokitesvara's heart is broken, on the one hand, he is angry at the curtain, and on the other hand, the three views have collapsed.

Avalokitesvara's strength is in the early days of Zhunsheng, except for some top masters in the Three Realms, she is the only one.

But with such strength, not only can't grab the three monkeys, but they can't even feel the breath and magic power of the other party, which scares the Bodhisattva a bit.

Guanyin thought for a while, and asked:
"Of these three, only one is true, right?"

"And who are you, don't you know who I am?"

Ha ha!

After hearing Guanyin's question, Juan Xiaolian replied slowly:
"You guessed wrong!"

"The three monkeys in front of you are all real. I am a selfless river god. As for you... aren't you Guanyin Bodhisattva?"

"It's all true?"

Guanyin was even more confused when he heard this.

Lingming Stone Monkey!
Empress Nuwa's sky-replenishing stone absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon for countless years, and then she derived a spirit stone monkey that transcends the three realms and is not in the five elements. How could all three be real?

Could it be that there were two monkeys inside the Sky-Mending Stone just now, and I didn't notice it?

Avalokitesvara pondered in her heart, unable to figure out what was going on, so she opened her mouth and asked again:

"You said just now that if I choose the right one, all three monkeys can be handed over to me. If I choose the wrong one, what will happen?"

Roll Xiaolian replied indifferently:

"If you get the wrong answer, it proves that this is not the stone monkey you dropped, so I can't give it to you."

Finished!

Guanyin's mentality exploded instantly.

In the current situation, if I really answered wrongly, then the Lingming stone monkey is gone, and the learning from the scriptures is over before it even started?
If this is the case, because I ruined my study, the consequences are definitely not something I can bear, so what should I do?

"Please give me some time to think about it."

After Guanyin finished speaking, she looked up at the sky, and began to ask for help from Lingshan and Tianting. The Lingming Stone Monkey was born not long ago, and Guanyin knew that many people were looking at Huaguo Mountain at this moment.

Lingshan.

Tathagata's face became gloomy at the moment, and someone really dared to destroy his great prosperity of Buddhism, he is looking for death!
but…

Guanyin's strength, unexpectedly can't touch the three stone monkeys in front of the opponent, what's the situation?
Could it be that this is a cover-up, that the Lingming stone monkey has already been included in the magical space by the other party?

So how can this be good.

The Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Lingshan Great Hall also looked confused at the moment, looking at each other, but they didn't have any ideas.

The Burning Lamp Buddha said at this time:
"It must be too late for us to go now, so we can only let Guanyin choose through sound transmission."

"In my opinion, there are two possibilities. First, these three stone monkeys are all fake, so Guanyin can't touch them, and no matter what you choose, you will be wrong."

"Secondly, the three stone monkeys are all real. It may be that the Sky-Mending Stone is divided into three parts. According to the other party's honesty, as long as we are not greedy and choose the ordinary Lingming stone monkey, we will be right. "

A group of bodhisattvas and arhats nodded in agreement after hearing this.

Tathagata frowned and meditated:

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate to let Guanyin choose rashly. This masked river god can make Guanyin afraid, and his strength is by no means weaker than us."

"I'll communicate with Heaven first, and see how the Jade Emperor thinks about it."

The problem was very serious, and Tathagata did not dare to act recklessly, for fear of destroying the Lingming stone monkey.

Lingxiao Palace.

The Jade Emperor was also puzzled at the moment, he couldn't figure out what was going on with the masked river god, why did he want to catch the Lingming stone monkey?
Are these three spirit stone monkeys real or fake?

All the immortals in the hall also looked at me and you, and they were very confused.

Facing the Tathagata's inquiry, the Jade Emperor thought for a while, and ordered people to quickly invite the Supreme Lord.

The Jade Emperor couldn't understand this situation, so he could only let the well-informed Laojun come and see what was going on.

But can Lao Jun understand it?

Although Laojun was not in the Lingxiao Palace just now, he has been watching it for a long time in the Tushita Palace.

Suddenly a river god came out, and he couldn't figure out anything about the other party. The old man could only say yes, the water is too deep here, he can't grasp it!

Helpless!

Now in Lingxiao Palace and Lingshan, everyone is waiting for Laojun's opinion.

Laojun could only open his mouth and analyze:

"I tried my best to calculate this person, but there is no information. I am afraid that the magic power is unfathomable. In this case, he did not directly capture the Lingming Stone Monkey and disappear, but let Guanyin choose."

"In this case, we don't care whether his golden monkey or silver monkey is real or not, we just choose the Lingming stone monkey we need."

When the Jade Emperor and all the immortals heard this, they all agreed.

So the Jade Emperor passed the words of the old gentleman directly to the Tathagata in Lingshan.

Tathagata's heart trembled, and he was also very shocked.

In the absence of a sage, the Taishang Laojun is a ceiling. Whether it is strength or insight, he is already "I am the best in the world."

just now…

Even Laojun can't see the details?
Even Laojun said that he was unfathomable, so this guy with the bronze mask, could it be... that one?
He's out, he's taking revenge?
With a heavy heart, Tathagata used his magical powers to send a message to Guanyin who was far away in Huaguo Mountain, asking her to choose the third, the ordinary Lingming stone monkey.

Tathagata is completely helpless.

Here.

Although Avalokitesvara is thinking, she is actually waiting for the Tathagata's reply. This situation can be seen even by rolling the small curtain.

But it doesn't matter anymore!

Guanyin looked at the small curtain cautiously, and replied: "My choice is, the ordinary Lingming stone monkey, not the golden monkey and the silver monkey."

Hearing this, Roll Xiaolian asked:
"Then, young Guanyin, are you sure that what you dropped was this ordinary spirit stone monkey?"

Guanyin nodded heavily and said:
"Sure!"

at the same time.

After Avalokitesvara was confirmed, not only Avalokitesvara felt uneasy, but the whole Three Realms was watching Juanxiaolian and Avalokitesvara. Everyone held their breath now, and their hearts were raised in their throats.

Everyone said that this must be the right choice!
If you don't choose the right one, the Lingming stone monkey will be gone, and the learning of scriptures has not started yet, and it will be over.

Especially the entire Lingshan.

All of them did not dare to take a breath, and prayed in their hearts: "Buddha bless, this must be right!"

Tathagata: It is better to ask for others than to ask for oneself. I, Tathagata, solemnly pray for the blessing of Buddha Tathagata.
