Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 197 Bodhisattva feels that he has been calculated

I thought the Bodhisattva would ask himself some compassionate theories about the choice of life and death, but he didn't expect the Bodhisattva to ask: "Three Tibetans, the poor monk has attracted the souls of these children. After thinking about it for a long time, I don't know how to return them to their parents. I don't know if the Three Tibetans have Clever strategy?"

After listening to the Bodhisattva's question, Fahai looked at the sixteen lotus seeds stored in the lotus platform, and asked, "The Bodhisattva's original intention is for these sixteen little children to re-enter the mother's womb and continue the family relationship?"

"Yes." Bodhisattva first nodded slightly, then shook his head, and said: "But I always feel that it is not right, and then I enter the mother's womb and come out, and I will be a human being in the second life. Although I am still reincarnated with one soul, I have broken the previous life and will never be the same again. memory."

Fahai continued: "In this way, it seems that the child is restored, but in fact it is not the child of the deceased."

"The poor monk has a second method, which is to nourish the soul with lotus seeds and shape the body with lotus roots, so that they can also get the incarnation of a lotus boy."

Fa Hai thought for a while, and said, "If this is the case, you will be alive but no longer a human being. I don't know how the lotus incarnation made by the Bodhisattva is compared to the third prince Nezha?"

The Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "It's hard to come by. Nezha's lotus incarnation comes from the lotus pond that contains the precious lotus lamp. It is a hard-to-find spiritual root in the three realms. The poor monk here only has the South Sea lotus that raises this evil animal." Chi, although extraordinary, is only somewhat immortal."

"Why do Bodhisattvas get entangled, why not ask their parents." The Great Sage listened for a long time, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Whether to enter the mother's womb to obtain a human body, or to be transformed into a lotus flower to obtain its soul, it is up to them to decide. .”

Fahai suddenly realized what he heard, and smiled, "That's right, the Bodhisattva can also ask these children to see their own wishes."

Bajie on the side smiled and said: "I see, most of them want to be transformed into lotus flowers. Not to mention the loss of children, these children can be regarded as being born in lotus flowers. As for whether they are human or not. I'm afraid only Bodhisattvas are entangled."

"Forget it, forget it." The Bodhisattva smiled helplessly: "You guys are also cunning, the poor monk only asks you, but you shirk it with a few words."

The Bodhisattva didn't leave any ink, and immediately recited the mantra, turning into sixteen phantoms and falling into sixteen families.

After a while, the Bodhisattva opened his eyes, looked at Bajie, and said, "You really hit the mark."

Bajie smiled again, and asked curiously: "Bodhisattva, do you think that when these lotus children return home, will those families who escaped the catastrophe regret that it was not their children who were sacrificed in the previous eight years?"

The Bodhisattva glanced at Bajie and said: "People's hearts and human nature are inevitable. But who wants their children to suffer like this? This is a catastrophe, not a good fortune."

The great sage also said aside: "There are too many children in the world who are sacrificed in vain. Today they have this good fortune. It is also because the carp spirit raised by the Bodhisattva is the one who does evil here. That's why the Bodhisattva shows mercy. Put it elsewhere, who Someone come to rescue?"

The Bodhisattva nodded and said: "Wukong is right. There are many children who have died in vain. The poor monk ignored many of them before. It is absolutely wrong. My name in the world of giving birth to Guanyin is not effective now. This is because of the poor. Monk's fault."

The Bodhisattva recited a mantra here, split into a true spirit incarnation, and said to her: "From now on, you will exclusively inherit the incense for sending Guanyin to your son."

"Amitabha." The incarnation chanted the Buddha's name, scattered into the human world, and fell into the Songzi Guanyin Temple, thereby connecting to the Songzi Guanyin statues in the three worlds.

"The poor monk's magic power is limited after all, so we can only practice this method temporarily." Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva suddenly looked at Fa Hai, and said, "There are many evil gods in the three realms, and there are not a few boys and girls who are sacrificed. Do it, whatever it takes."

"Although the poor monk intends to take on this matter, it will be after the Westward Journey." Fa Hai pondered for a moment, and said, "There is a suitable candidate, and perhaps the Bodhisattva can recommend it to the Heavenly Court."

"who?"

"Guanjiangkou Erlang Zhenjun."

The Great Sage also clapped his palms and smiled: "Extremely, extremely. Back then, the Bodhisattva recommended Erlang Zhenjun to take my grandson to the heaven, and now recommending him to clean up the evil gods of the Three Realms would be the best."

The Bodhisattva also nodded and said: "This matter is none other than him. It is also determined that he has accepted the invitation of the Jade Emperor. After his wife is pregnant, he will take over the judicial decree."

"Isn't this a coincidence." Xiao Bailong said aside: "It is extremely difficult for my dragon family to conceive, and I am about to show the supernatural power of Bodhisattva giving birth to Guanyin."

Buddha:.
While reasonable, I felt like I was being calculated.

The old and the young in Chenjiazhuang got the news of the Bodhisattva's appearance. There were no households left, and they all rushed to the Temple of the Great King of Inspiration.The Bodhisattva naturally knew about this situation, but she didn't leave because of it. The five masters and apprentices, including Fahai, followed along with the old man.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva performed supernatural powers, took out the lotus root stored in the jade bottle, and weaved it into sixteen incarnations. Accompanied by fragrance and fairy music, sixteen lotus children came to the world.

The old and the young in Chenjiazhuang who had just rushed over saw this scene, and ordered them to kneel down and pay homage to the Bodhisattva. The parents of the sixteen families saw this, and even had a foreknowledge, so they couldn't cry at this moment, and rushed forward to embrace their children in their arms. .

So far reunited.

"Amitabha."

After the Bodhisattva chanted the Dharma name, he said: "The spirits of the poor monk's family went to the mortal world in private, pretending to be gods, and caused disasters. Now they show a fierce appearance and are the salvation of Tripitaka; it is also the sixteen children who have suffered disasters and are now unfulfilled. The poor monk Taking the lotus root in the lotus pond as the body, reshaping the body for the sixteen children is a karmic cycle."

After the Bodhisattva finished speaking, auspicious clouds formed under his feet, lifted them onto the lotus platform, and then disappeared.

Guanyin Bodhisattva is gone, but Master Sanzang is still there. Just now the Bodhisattva made it clear that it was this Master Sanzang who subdued the king of inspiration.

The main body of the king of inspiration is still left in front of the temple of the king of inspiration.

The leader, Chen Cheng, looked at it, and thought to himself: What a big monster, it grows more than ten feet just by looking at it, piled up here like a small mountain bag.

Fa Hai suddenly looked at some bold people in the village, with a little greed in his eyes, he frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and pointed, a ray of Buddha's light melted into the corpse, and after a while, the essence of the body of the King of Inspiration was transformed. Under the earth, or between rivers and rivers.

One nourished the food, and the other fattened the river fish, which was also the retribution of the King of Inspiration for eating virgin boys and girls in the Tongtian River.

There were still a group of young and strong who were about to smash the temple of the Great Inspiration King who was harmful to people on the spot, but the mature people in the village stopped them and said: "Wait a minute, wait a moment, why don't you change this temple into a Bodhisattva temple."

This statement was unanimously approved by everyone, and the Bodhisattva appeared only when he laughed at it. Who would dare not?

After saying a few words about the reconstruction plan, the villagers of Chenjiazhuang grandly invited Sanzang and his disciples back to the village for a celebration banquet.

The old man went down to the river to recover his family's ancestral property, not to mention, he actually wanted to invite Sanzang and his disciples to visit the water mansion, but now that the water mansion is occupied by all the spirits, he couldn't open his mouth, so he had to go back first. It's tidied up, and I'll come to the shore tomorrow to wait.

"Thank you, holy monk, for eliminating demons."

When they returned to Zhuangzi, all the people in Chenjiazhuang, led by Chen Cheng and Chen Qing, paid homage to Master Sanzang.

After being certified by the Bodhisattva, the Great Sage and Bajie are also real Buddhist elders. At this moment, it seems that there is only reverence, where is there any fear?
It was also getting late, so after a few words of pleasantries, the audience went away, and the sixteen children also went back to their respective homes.

But Bajie suddenly asked curiously: "Master, these children will not grow up like the third prince Nezha, right?"
