Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Master Sanzang will arrive at Lingshan soon!
Compared to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan, as well as those dojos that are not in Lingshan, but the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas who have received the Buddha's decree are the goblins in Xizhou, who breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the end of Master Sanzang's westward journey seems to mean to a certain extent that they don't have to live in fear as before.

Although there are some benevolent little demons who hope to be transformed by Mage Sanzang, for the vast majority of goblins in the Three Realms, the most instinctive reaction to people like Mage Sanzang is to keep them out. I have never met fate in my life.

The Jade Emperor, who often ran to the Tushita Palace recently, expressed his pity for this.

When he spread those rumors back then, he probably wanted to take the opportunity to clean up the gods in the heavenly court, but he didn't expect that apart from the Kuimu wolf who descended to earth early, among the gods in the heavenly court, in the end, it was King Zhou's lower realm.
And he still took the initiative to seek death.

Although it also proves that Master Sanzang does have the ability to escape the righteous gods who have been on the list of gods, but the other party has endured the punishment of heaven, and has also been recognized and favored by the human race Emperor Xuanyuan and King Yu.
The Jade Emperor's idle move is put on hold.

There is no way.

Those who can fight against Master Sanzang will not be fooled, and secondly, they are confident that they can get out of trouble with their own abilities, and they don't need to rely on others; while those who have borrowed Master Sanzang to get out of trouble in their hearts are definitely not opponents .

Fortunately, this is the Jade Emperor's son, and it is not distressing to abandon it, but it is inevitable to complain to the old man.

The volume of the Three Realms is huge.

As big as the Jade Emperor, the supreme being of the Three Realms, in fact, he only commands the Three Realms in name.

For example, places such as Lingshan, Kunlun Mountain, and Jinao Island have always had great autonomy, and the Jade Emperor would not easily intervene in these matters.

And if it weren't for the sages of the human race, all of them practiced in Huoyun Cave because of the restriction of heaven. Who is in charge of this world is really a matter of opinion.

He even thought boldly, if the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors joined hands to be guests in the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor felt that he could abdicate and make way for the virtuous, who would be the supreme being of the Three Realms.

Buddhism still wants to preach to the Central Plains humans?

Not to mention Buddhism, it is the incarnation of Li Dan, the incarnation of Laozi Taiqing, how about the Taoist tradition handed down by the human race?
It seems that the incense is endless, but compared to the status of the Taiqing saint, it seems that it is not something to be praised.

To put it bluntly, among the gods in the heaven, the one with the most incense is neither the Jade Emperor nor the Laojun, but the "God of Wealth" Zhao Gongming.

And the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who is the most incensed in Buddhism, has to be inferior to the "God of Wealth".

If it is really possible to make the Central Plains humans hesitate about the "God of Wealth", I am afraid it is Wenquxing. Besides, Hongluan Yuelao has to step aside, don't let the God of Wealth feel that I am not pious
This is also one of the reasons why Zhao Gongming is not keen on leaving the list of gods
"Your Majesty, the Journey to the West is coming to an end." Lao Jun shook his whisk and said with a smile, "The Eight Immortals of Shangdong seem to be returning to their positions."

Buddhism uses the journey to the west to gather luck.

Although this was an act of tacit understanding between Buddhism and Taoism, it is naturally impossible for the Taoist sect to have countermeasures.

Among them, Laojun has already appointed a great immortal by default, and it is Donghua Emperor who was persuaded to go to the lower realm to experience the life of the human race.

And the Jade Emperor also has a candidate, the barefoot immortal who has worked hard in heaven for a long time, and he is included in the list of descending to earth this time.

As for Taibai Jinxing who will also descend to earth in the near future, the Jade Emperor does not intend to let him participate in the affairs of the Eight Immortals, but simply let him take a few days off, and sooner or later he has to return to the court to work.

The main reason is that this old man is unconscious, obviously talented, but he likes to hide his clumsiness.

"The selection of the Eight Immortals. But it must be decided in advance?" the Jade Emperor asked Laojun.

The old gentleman thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "Why don't your Majesty and the old Taoist each choose one person. How about the remaining six people, all depending on fate?"

"good!"

At the same time, the Jade Emperor and the Laojun each wrote down the name of a person, and then they all came out together. The Laojun wrote the three characters [Li Tieguai], while the Jade Emperor wrote the three characters [Zhongliquan].

"Hahahaha." Laojun laughed a few times, and said repeatedly: "Miaozai, Miaozai."

The reincarnations of the Donghua Emperor and the Barefoot Immortal, who seemed to be predestined, have to compete for the position according to their own chances.

As for the matter of the Demon Realm, neither the Jade Emperor nor the Laojun seemed to take it seriously.

In addition, Fahai and his four disciples waited until the repairs of the Huaguang Academy were completed, and after Yiying Mountain Ghost and Fairy had been properly trained, the master and apprentice continued on their way to the west.

As soon as I saw it, I arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, but the master and apprentice walked more and more slowly. Whenever I came across some cities and villages, I had to live comfortably for a day or two.

Although everyone has said it clearly, everyone knows in their hearts that after learning the scriptures, it may not be long before everyone will go their separate ways.

There is no permanent banquet in the world, and they are not hypocritical people, they just enjoy the time of master and apprentice together as much as possible.

All the way is a great way, and it is true that the Western Buddhist Land is different from other places.I saw some beautiful flowers, Yao grass, ancient cypresses, and pines. Wherever I passed, every family was kind, and every household worshiped monks.

The master and apprentice stayed overnight at Xiaoxing and finished the last eight hundred miles.

When he was about to enter the land of Lingshan, he suddenly saw a bodhi tree, and the master and apprentice stopped together.

"Master, look—" the Great Sage pointed and said, "There is a bodhi tree here, but I don't know if it is the one where the Buddha meditated."

"Yes and no, what's the difference?" Fahai laughed, "But it's fate to meet you, and it's the first time I've seen this bodhi tree as a teacher. Why don't you just practice Zen here and meditate for half a day before entering Lingshan. Bar."

"Master, aren't you afraid that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan will get impatient?"

"Amitabha." Fahai folded his hands together and said, "My teacher is just an ordinary monk. Why are all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas waiting for me? You monkey, don't lie."

Hey hey hey——

The disciples laughed secretly for a while when they heard this, and said to themselves: It's rare to see the master like this. Huh, but many bad things happened along the way, all because of the inaction of these gods and Buddhas, and they had to wipe their buttocks with their masters and disciples.

So what if I let you wait half a day?
And after my old grandson enters Lingshan, no one will run away if he asks you for Buddhist teachings.

In the Lingshan Mountain, there is an arhat who always pays attention to the movements of their master and apprentice. At this moment, he reported to the Buddha in the Daxiong Hall: "Buddha, Tang Sanzang and his party are currently meditating under the bodhi tree, and they say that they will continue on their way in half a day."

The Buddha's expression is solemn, and his face is neither sad nor happy.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "Amitabha, you can see that the Tripitaka and one line are truly rooted in wisdom. It is a joy to congratulate. This is the joy of my Buddhist school, and it is the blessing of the Three Realms."

After hearing this, Mu Zha, who was standing behind the Bodhisattva, said in his heart, "I hope you can still maintain this dignity and calmness when the monkey is chanting sutras."

Mu Zha never expected that he could call himself here today.

Why?

Why!

Didn't you say let me leave Buddhism?
Besides, I'm just a walker. Why bother?
Wasn't it just a moment of slack that let Ling Xuzi get off the chain and flicked a pond of water lilies.

Mu Zha glanced at the seemingly calm, but in fact excited Shancai Dragon Girl. Because she has always been in the Nanhai Dojo, this is the first time she has come to Lingshan, so she can't hide her joy.

To this, Mu Zha can only say: I hope you can still laugh in a while.

The same message goes to all of you here.

Mu Zha took a quick glance, and found that all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Three Realms had come, except for Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva sitting on Yinshan Mountain.

The ancient Buddha who burns lamps in the past and the Maitreya Buddha who will be the future sit on both sides of the Tathagata Buddha.

The first place in the west is the place to welcome the Buddha, but because he is going to welcome Sanzang and his party to cross Lingyundu, so he is not there at the moment.

Not only that, Mu Zha also saw a scribe wearing a Confucian robe, sitting in a trance at the end of the line of Bodhisattvas in the Daxiong Hall. He thought he had seen Erlang God Yang Jian. King Bodhisattva.
Ok?
scare!
In the Mahavira Hall, even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are never at peace.

After all, they are very aware of Master Sanzang's prestige along the way, and the rumors of Lingshan some time ago inevitably caused some waves in their hearts.

Although it is said to be a pure place of Buddhism, is it really pure?
A truly clean place is deserted.

Let’s say that the five masters and apprentices quietly practiced meditation under the bodhi tree, and it is inevitable that they recalled the bits and pieces of the past 14 years, especially the scene when the master and apprentice first met, and they kept echoing in their hearts.

The green bodhi tree is where the treasure statue is solemn.

When half a day was up, everyone got up together, but there were few words on the road, and they just kept their heads down.

But after passing the Yichuan mountain range, I saw a high-rise building with several floors of Jiege.It can be said that it is soaring a hundred feet into the sky, soaring into the sky.

Climb to its top, look down to watch the sunset, and pick flying stars with your hands.

After seeing such a scene, the moods of the master and apprentice gradually picked up.

When Fahai saw it, he couldn't help sighing in his heart: he has been a monk for two lifetimes, and now he has finally arrived at Lingshan!
The masters and apprentices were still admiring the magnificent scenery of this place, but they saw a figure at the head of the pavilion standing leaning in front of the mountain gate and shouting: "Then is it a person who came from the East to learn Buddhist scriptures?"

Hearing the reputation, Fa Hai looked over and saw the man wearing brocade clothes, shaking jade dust in his hands, hanging fairy talismans on his elbows, and wearing shoes on his feet.

He is not a monk, but a true Taoist monk!

Fahai didn't recognize the person for a while, but the great sage at the side said: "Master, this is the Jinding Immortal from Yuzhen Temple at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. I think he came here to wait for us."

Hearing this, Fa Hai took a few quick steps, and approached to salute, "Poor monk Tang Sanzang, I have seen the Great Immortal."

"Hahahaha!"

Jinding Daxian laughed a few times, "Why should the holy monk be so polite? It's just why the holy monk came today? I was deceived by Guanyin Bodhisattva. She received the golden decree of Buddha 14 years ago and went to the East to find scriptures. They came to me in two or three years. I waited every year, but there was no news. Unexpectedly, we met today."

After hearing this, Fa Hai quickly said: "Thank you for your kindness, I am grateful! But please forgive me. It is also the place where I have encountered many entanglements along the way, and often caused troubles in the places I passed. That's why I slowed down my journey. Please forgive me."

"Hahahaha——" Jinding Daxian laughed again, "What is the word of the holy monk? I can hear your deeds like thunder. It's getting late today, please go to the temple to rest, and wait until tomorrow morning before going to Lingshan .”

"Thank you!"

Fahai didn't refuse, anyway, he had already arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, let alone within a day.

The Jinding Daxian led five masters and apprentices in, and ordered to watch tea and set up a fast, and ordered the little boy to burn incense soup and take a bath with the holy monk, so that he could ascend to the Buddha's place.

The Jinding Daxian also sang and sang——

It is advisable to take a bath after the completion of the meritorious deeds, so as to refine and tame the nature and innocence.The untold hardships are now over, and the Nine Precepts and Three Refugees start a new life.Sure enough, the demons go to the Buddha's place, and the disaster disappears, so they can see the recluses.Washing away dust and dirt is completely free of stains, returning to the original and restoring the body without damaging the body.

Above the Daxiong Palace.

The Buddha looked at the Bodhisattva, and said slowly, "One word from the Bodhisattva made the Great Immortal wait for more than ten years. Now it is karma to make us wait an extra day."

Buddha:.
That night.

The Great Sage suddenly noticed something unusual in Lingshan, and after looking at it with his golden eyes, he saw that it was clearly a place of Buddhahood, but there was a dark mist hidden in it.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Master's voice transmission: "Wukong, your soul is out of your body, go and investigate."

"Yes."

Sure enough, this vision of black mist could not be hidden from Master.

Lingshan Jieyin Temple.

This is where the Daoist Temple of the Buddha is located, and the black mist is coming out of it.

"Weird!"

The great sage hid his primordial spirit, looked outside the temple, and said in his heart: "Accordingly, the vision here is not too small, even if the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan couldn't detect it, why didn't even the Buddha respond?"

Because of the strangeness of the matter, the Great Sage was cautious and did not enter the temple without permission.

It's just that the golden eyes and the supernatural powers of the sky are running, and when you listen carefully, you can only hear it intermittently, which is not true.

He sighed secretly in his heart: It would be great if Junior Brother Liu Er was here.

After a while, the Great Sage heard that there was no movement in Jieyin Temple, and seeing that the black mist had dispersed, he turned around and returned to Yuzhen Temple.

"Master, there is a man named Wutian Mozu. He meets and guides the Buddha privately at night. It seems that he wants to play with our scriptures."

The Great Sage didn't hear it clearly, but that's roughly what he meant.

"Wutian Demon Ancestor?" Fa Hai frowned gradually, and half-guessed: "Could it be a person from the Demon Realm? Can the Introducing Buddha collude with him?"

"No." The Great Sage shook his head, "The two of them should be acquaintances, so Jieying Buddha didn't take action against him, nor did he collude with him, but just warned him, let him do his own thing, and don't make mistakes."

"If you can't figure it out, let's put it down for now. When you see the Buddha Jieyin tomorrow, just ask him face to face." Having said that, Fahai's heart was not at peace either. I just hope that I can get the scriptures smoothly, and don't make any more twists and turns."

After all, this is Lingshan, which is different from other places.If it really breaks out, I'm afraid it will be more or less ominous.

After that, there was nothing to say all night.

The next morning, Fahai changed his clothes, put on a brocade cassock, a Pilu hat, and held a tin staff, leading a few disciples to the hall to bid farewell to the Great Immortal. This time he was really going to the Lingshan Mountain.
