Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 122

Fa Hai thinks that he is well-informed, and there are countless kinds of demons in his hand.

But today, it can be regarded as an eye-opener.

Regardless of what kind of heel this Spirit Tooth Elephant Buddha is, Fa Hai felt that he must meet him for a while, but to see who this Spirit Tooth Elephant Buddha is.

It is said that in Xiniu Hezhou, where Buddhism originated, whether it is a Buddha or a demon, is there really someone who dares to act like this?

Are the Buddhas in Lingshan pretending not to see?Or just let it go?
Could it be that this is another catastrophe set up by Lingshan to "stop" him from going west?

After hearing clearly the whole story of this incident, Fa Hai had already made a rough estimate in his heart.

It is nothing more than two situations, one is that the demons use the name of the Buddha to deceive and deceive; the second is that the Buddha does demon things.

In the former case, to save him by himself is to rectify the name of Buddhism; in the case of the latter, Fa Hai can't help but wonder if it is Lingshan who wants to use his own hands to clean up the door.

But I am also willing to make this knife.

Fa Hai suppressed these thoughts for the time being, and he was unwilling to speculate about Lingshan Buddha before seeing the real image.

After all, this elephant Buddha seems to be in Baoxiang Kingdom. Apart from only eating offerings and not showing his spirit, he heard the king say today that he wanted virgin boys and girls as offerings, but he happened to meet a wise monarch and didn't pay attention to him. .

In addition, it seems that he has not done any evil deeds.

There may be something else wrong with this matter.Thinking of this, Fa Hai first spoke to appease the king, "Since the poor monk knows about this matter, he will not sit idly by. Don't worry, Your Majesty."

After leaving the imperial study room, Fa Hai used the method of sound transmission for thousands of miles: "Wukong, Ao Lie!"

The king hastily chased him out of the door, but he saw two rays of light flashing across the sky, gold and silver. When they landed, they turned into two disciples of the holy monk.

"Master."

The two disciples hurried forward to pay respects, and said, "What is the master's order?"

"Wukong, hurry up, go to Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea, first go to see Guanyin Bodhisattva, and ask Bodhisattva clearly to see if there is a spiritual tooth elephant Buddha among the Buddhas in this Lingshan Mountain. If not, you On the way back; if there is one, tell the Bodhisattva, "This Buddha has fallen into a demon, and the poor monk will descend upon him."

The Great Sage was quite puzzled, and asked: "Master, you only need to subdue the demons, why do you want my old grandson to go to the South China Sea?"

"Eldest brother, Master told you to go, you should go quickly—"

Hearing this, Xiao Bailong thought to himself: It's probably because the master rarely meets an opponent, he is afraid that the elder brother will take the lead, so he asks him to dismiss him.

"This matter is not trivial." Fa Hai said with a serious face, "If the poor monk really wants to fight against a true Buddha, regardless of the outcome, isn't it the people of this Baoxiang country who will suffer? You should ask the Bodhisattva to fight, Only then can we be safe.”

At that time, because of a mistake in my own thoughts, the two green and white snakes flooded the Jinshan Mountain, which was already a great man-made disaster.

Now, what would it be like to fight a true Buddha in Baoxiang Kingdom?
In the past, demons were cast down in the mountains, but now in the cities of the human race, it is natural to be wary of rats.

The same mistake cannot be made twice, and it is necessary to prevent problems before they happen.

Besides, how can there be no witness for such a demon-death incident?
I can restrain myself so as not to hurt mortals, but this demon Buddha who has become a demon can't say it well.

There are Bodhisattvas who can protect ordinary people, so they can let go and do things themselves, so that they will not be restrained.

The king was listening and everyone was dumbfounded, boy, is this the ordinary monk you are talking about?
Which ordinary monk dares to invite Bodhisattvas if he can say so?
Also, isn’t inviting a Bodhisattva to a Bodhisattva temple?

Is it really okay for your old man to send his big apprentice directly to Nanhai to find him?

Also, with your determined expression and tone, do you already acquiesce that the Bodhisattva will come?

Xiao Wang sees that you are not a monk who went to the west of the Tang Dynasty to pray to the Buddha for scriptures.

When the king went to see Master Sanzang again, he only felt that the figure of the other party was getting taller and shinning with dazzling Buddha light.

He said in his heart: After sending the holy monk to the west, the widow will demolish the elephant Buddha in the Baoxiang Buddha Temple, and erect a golden body for the holy monk to worship day and night.

As for why he waited for Master Sanzang to go west, he was also afraid that Master Sanzang would not agree to such a request when the virtuous and eminent monk was around.

The great sage got his master's order and didn't dare to be negligent, so he turned over to the South China Sea in a tumble.

"Ao Lie."

Xiao Bailong hurried forward to listen.

"If you go to the Xiangfo Temple to make a worship post, it says that on the [-]th day, the poor monk will discuss the Dharma with Xiangfo on the top of Wanzi Mountain. Please let him appreciate it."

"What if he refuses to come?" Xiao Bailong subconsciously asked.

"The widow ordered the demolition of all the Xiangfo temples in the country!" The king on the side clenched his fists and raised his voice. It seemed that he still had some heroic power. After all, it was a matter of his own country, and he also wanted to have a sense of participation.

In fact, since his father and son ascended the throne successively, although he has not deliberately suppressed the Xiangfo Temple, the so-called effective from top to bottom, things that even the king of a country does not want to see, the top ministers in the court will naturally not study it, and then it will affect it. Local officials, these parental officials will affect the people
What's more, in the next 13 years, the king has begun to deliberately target this elephant Buddha, and this elephant Buddha is indeed not effective, so it is not necessarily true to say how much the people believe in him.

The folk customs here are still simple and honest, and the weather has always been smooth, so if it doesn’t work, it won’t work, at most, it’s enough not to worship.

However, Fahai had heard from Xiaobailong that in ancient times, some tribes with strong folk customs in the Central Plains demolished the Dragon King Temple because they failed to pray for rain in the Dragon King Temple.There are also those who, because of the flooding of the Yellow River, failed to pray to God, and simply cured the water by themselves became Hebo.
Even many gods in the Heavenly Court were actually not conferred by the Jade Emperor to become gods.It is that all living beings in the world are grateful for his achievements, or they are inspired by his character and set up temples to worship on their own, so the true spirit ascends to heaven, and the lives of the audience become gods.This is also a characteristic that other races in the Three Realms have never possessed except the human race.

Therefore, a group of gods and Buddhas are so fancy about incense in the world.

At this moment, the king sincerely respects the Sanzang Master. It is not that he has not seen some self-proclaimed eminent monks in recent years, who are like clouds and mud compared to the Sanzang Master.

He also thought about it now, how can such a real Buddha be accommodated in his small temple?

In the future, I will be able to quietly support his golden body, which is already my luck.

"The Buddha saved the world from disasters and thus gained the faith of all living beings. Isn't that what it looks like?" The king realized a little bit in his heart, "In the past, it wasn't that the Buddha was unreliable, but that he hadn't met a credible true Buddha."

He is not a Buddhist practitioner, and he doesn't know the truth about this understanding now, but he feels that the truth should be so correct.

"Is there a spirit-toothed elephant Buddha that has been enchanted in Baoxiang Kingdom? Your master is about to subdue it?"

Seeing the great sage's words, the bodhisattva even doubted whether there really was such a real Buddha in this Buddhist gate.

"Go back and tell your master, and say that this is a demon that used the name of the Buddha to cause evil, and your master and disciple will be transformed by themselves." At this point, the Bodhisattva suddenly paused, and she made some calculations, and her face changed a little dignified.

After a while, she softly shouted: "How courageous!"

"Bodhisattva, what's wrong?"

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said in a deep voice: "Although this monster has a lot of history, it will not hinder you, master and disciple, just feel free to surrender."

"Bodhisattva, what is the origin of it? Is it difficult for you to see?"

"Hehehehe." The Bodhisattva smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you its identity, which will make your master and disciple feel jealous?"

"The Bodhisattva is just joking. The master you found for my old grandson, you don't know his temper? If it's because the goblin has a background, you will be merciful. How aggrieved along the way?" The Great Sage laughed and said: "In my old grandson's opinion, you didn't let my master be happy on this journey, and you will go to Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan in the future, and discipline all the true Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan.

The Bodhisattva said in his heart: You may not know that before he met you, the poor monk really didn't know that he had such a temperament.

"Forget it." The Bodhisattva said, "The poor monk will tell you his origin, and your master will have the confidence to deal with it."

"Bodhisattva, please speak, my grandson is listening."

"Do you know that Samantabhadra Bodhisattva sits on a horse, which is a white elephant?"

"I've heard it a little bit, I've heard a little bit." The Great Sage took a step forward and said, "Could it be that Puxian Bodhisattva drove a white elephant and descended to the world as a demon, pretending to be a god in Baoxiang Kingdom?"

"Not really." The Bodhisattva said, "When the Baoxiang Kingdom was established, it was indeed the white elephant that Samantabhadra Bodhisattva sat down to protect. But it was his son who was enshrined in the Baoxiang Kingdom."

"The Bodhisattva's words made my old grandson a little dizzy, so let's make it clearer."

"Back then, the white elephant gave birth to a son in the mortal world in private. In order to help this son get rid of the demon body and cleanse the evil spirit, he appeared to protect the precious elephant country and establish the country. It was to help his son with the incense of all living beings in the treasure elephant country. It’s also worth it.”

The Great Sage scratched his head when he heard the words: "Can you still act like this?"

"This is an heresy technique of qi circulation and marriage. It is useless to learn it." The Bodhisattva thought for a while, and said: "The heavens have the virtue of good life, if this little elephant has not done anything evil."

"Bodhisattva, don't worry." The Great Sage comforted the Bodhisattva repeatedly, and said, "It's just that my old grandson has always killed people without blinking an eye, and Master has trained him. Master, he is not a person who kills innocent people indiscriminately. But then again, if That little elephant really did something bad, I'm afraid even my old grandson can't intercede."

"Amitabha, good, good." The bodhisattva sighed softly, and said, "Go and protect your master on his way to the west, and the poor monk will go to Mount Emei."

The Great Sage didn't ask too much, Mount Emei is the Taoist place of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and the Bodhisattva should have gone here to help his master and disciples.

Seeing the great sage turning somersault, the Bodhisattva opened his mouth and said to the Hui'an walker beside him, "Would you like to go with me to Mount Emei?"

Hui An Xingzhe didn't hesitate when he arrived, and said directly: "Disciple guarding the mountain, let Junior Sister Long Er go."

Shancai Dragon Girl's eyes lit up when she heard this, she used to be the one who guarded the mountain at home, and she was tormented by the wolf so badly, she should let her brother suffer some torture this time, she cupped her hands and thanked her brother: "Thank you, brother."

Then he took a bottled ritual vessel and stood beside the Bodhisattva.
