Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 492 The roots of Western religion are about to be cut off; Bai Suzhen was recognized at a glance
If before the opening ceremony of the sect, it was these gods who opened the eyes of the people of Chang'an City, then the first scene of the opening of the sect before them undoubtedly surprised them.

In fact, whether it is the Taoism of Dongzhou or the Buddhism of Xizhou, when preaching to the sentient beings under their own rule, they will always belittle the people of Nanzhou more or less
What is said is that the sky is high and the land is thick, things are plentiful and people are dense, but they are more greedy and kill more, more adulterous and more deceitful, more deceitful and more deceitful;

He also said that he does not follow the gods and Buddhas, does not seek good fate, does not respect the three lights, and does not value the five grains;

What's more, they slandered the Nanzhou people for being unfaithful and filial, unrighteous and unkind, hiding their hearts and ignoring themselves, fighting big and small scales, killing lives and killing animals.
Even though the human race Kong Sheng established the teaching of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, he was still called an ignorant, indulgent and unscrupulous person by them.

And many people who don't know the inside story, naturally believe in the words of the immortal Buddha, so they have a very general impression of Nanzhou. In addition, they are blessed by the immortal Buddha, and they will more or less think that they are not favored by the immortal Buddha Most of the southern states in China are barren and barren.

But what is the truth?
Is it because Nanzhou is not welcomed by the immortals and Buddhas, or is it difficult for the immortals and Buddhas to open up the situation in Nanzhou and establish a traditional inheritance?
We must know that when King Ren ruled the world, the Central Plains of Nanzhou was already known as the land of China.

That is to say, after the Son of Heaven ruled the world, the power of the Son of Heaven was limited to one country, and government orders, not to mention commanding the Three Realms, even if they wanted to secure the throne, they had to follow the legal order. The influence of China in the Three Realms would naturally be weakened.

In addition, during the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, Nanzhou was indeed in a state of war, which is why the Buddhist and Taoist masters of Dongzhou and Xizhou spoke such words.

And judging based on this, it seems that they are not wrong. Even the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in Huoyun Cave have nothing to say.

At that time, it was indeed a dark period in the Central Plains Shenzhou, but since the unification of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Shenzhou has recovered. Today, Tian Khan has unified Nanzhou, and even the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry under his command has stepped on Xiniu Hezhou. Its power is the same for a while, even It can be said that it has surpassed the Qin and Han Dynasties, and it is worthy of the name of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

This also allowed the name of the Central Plains China to appear again in the eyes of the people in the East and West continents. If the connection between Dongzhou and Nanzhou is relatively distant, and the current situation of Nanzhou is unknown, then Xizhou is quite different.

Up to Lingshan Buddhist School, down to the subjects of various countries. Because of Sanzang's westward journey, he is very familiar with the current Tang Dynasty.

Even after Master Sanzang left Lingshan to learn scriptures, the Buddha once joked with the Bodhisattva: "I really don't know whether Tang Sanzang came to Xizhou to learn scriptures or to preach."

The Bodhisattva is deeply convinced of this: "My Lingshan Mahayana scriptures, he has indeed taken back Chang'an, but now he wants to establish his own Consciousness-only sect. Although he also belongs to the Mahayana sect, then for the people of the Tang Dynasty, Lingshan is one of them. What kind of position is he in? I have to say that Sanzang always does things beyond my expectations.”

That's true, but the Bodhisattva has no objection to Master Tripitaka's actions, and is even willing to facilitate this. Because she knows that the establishment of the Consciousness-Wei School will be beneficial and harmless to all living beings in the three realms.

Perhaps the Qi luck of the Western Lingshan will be partly taken away by the Consciousness-only sect in Nanzhou, but for Buddhism as a whole, its luck has not decreased, but has continued to rise.

The difference is that if Lingshan allows the Weishizong to develop like this, maybe the Weishizong really has the opportunity to rely on the foundation of Nanzhou and turn against Nalingshan.

And the reason why the Tathagata Buddha contributed to this matter is precisely because of this calculation. It doesn't matter if Tang Sanzang doesn't want to be a Buddha in Lingshan, it is completely possible to be a Buddha in Chang'an.

If Duobao Tathagata is really allowed to fulfill his wish, then the fun will be great. The Western religion back then would have been cut off even at its roots.

The monks who came here spontaneously today are actually mostly monks from the small sect of Buddhism in Xizhou. Hate not being able to see it in person.

Therefore, when Master Sanzang was abbot of the Unsheltered Conference in Tianzhu, they all rushed to the scene from various tribes in Xizhou, listened to Master Sanzang's Dharma with their own ears, and they were all sincerely convinced that Master Sanzang established a sect this time, and they also came from thousands of miles to join .

I don't want to be able to join Master Tripitaka's Consciousness-Wei School, but I just want them to be able to hear the scriptures at the first time when Master Tripitaka lectures in the future, which is enough.

Such monks are not just monks practicing in the world.

Even the many arhats in Lingshan have the intention of changing their schools, and even some of them are monks who practice Hinayana Buddhism. After all, Master Sanzang is still the "Heaven of Liberation" in Hinayana.

There are relatively few immortals in Dongzhou. Even those who came here today are all for the sake of the Great Sage, and they are all friendships formed when they were officials in the Heavenly Court.

It's just that the great sage made a big disturbance in the heavenly palace, and after he was suppressed by the Buddha under the Five Elements Mountain, he lost contact with him. Continuation of the leading edge.

It was only after coming to Nanzhou that I realized that in just a few decades, this Central Plains China had undergone such earth-shaking changes.

For the monks in Dongzhou, except that they occasionally pass through Nanzhou when they travel through the Three Realms, they are usually unwilling to set foot in Nanzhou. In the end, it was only a thousand and seven hundred years.

Although the kings of the past dynasties were not as tyrannical as the kings of ancient times, their dominance was still there.

Even at the end of the Shang Dynasty, weren't there still many immortal monks serving the court?
For example, Wen Taishi, the elder of the three dynasties, Li Jing, the general soldier of Chentangguan, the four generals of the Mo family at Jiamengguan, Zhang Guifang, the general soldier of Qinglongguan, Kong Xuan, the general soldier of Sanshanguan blocking the road in Jinjiling, etc.
But when the emperor ruled the world, it was completely different.

Even Ji Fa, King Wu of Zhou who overthrew the Great Shang, did not receive the allegiance of practitioners, let alone immortals.

When the King Zhou was crusaded back then, all the immortals and monks from all walks of life only listened to Jiang Taigong's orders. Instead, Ji Fa, the King of Wu, was more like a mascot put on display.

Therefore, it is not without reason that the emperor lost the right to control the world, because the world was not brought down by him in the first place.

This is also the reason why Emperor Ziwei has separated out his avatars and led the stars to conquer the world over and over again. He didn't want to start, and Liu Bang took advantage of the situation until Yingzheng went against the sky and was backlashed by the law of heaven.

But even so, he was almost overturned in the hands of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
Then Wang Mang usurped the Han, and he also wanted to revive the prosperous world of the king. Ziwei Great Emperor was separated into the lower realm again, and reincarnated as Liu Xiu also relied on the power of destiny to reverse the situation.

And now this incarnation is reincarnated as Li Shimin. Although he is the emperor, he has the idea of ​​being a king himself. This is something that Emperor Ziwei himself did not expect, but he does not intend to intervene in this matter. It all depends on Li Shimin's actions in the lower realm.

But with Li Shimin alone, it is naturally difficult to achieve this arrogant idea that is unrealistic at first glance, but if he has the backing of the holy Buddhas of the Three Realms, the situation will be very different.

In other words, if Master Sanzang is backed by a human king who supports him, what will happen to the Consciousness-Wei School in the Three Realms?
The human king and the holy Buddha in the human world are sworn brothers again. With the two of them working together, I am afraid that the human world will really become its own unity.Even the Jade Emperor, who sits high above the nine heavens, has to carefully consider his attitude towards the world.

There are very few key points like this that can be seen clearly.

Most of the people present still gathered together to watch the excitement.

Fa Hai doesn't like formal things, so the ceremony of the opening ceremony is not complicated, but there are still many necessary procedures.

After appeasing the emotions of the people in Chang'an, Fa Hai returned to the altar to thank all the guests.

"Amitabha."

Fa Hai recited the Buddha's name, then clasped his hands together, saluted all the guests, and then said: "Poor Monk Tang Sanzang, welcome everyone to attend the opening ceremony of my Consciousness-Wei Sect today."

The guests also stood up one after another and returned a salute to Master Sanzang.

Even the Great Immortal Zhenyuan and Mrs. Li Shan are no exception, and Bai Suzhen behind Mrs. Li Shan, while saluting, can't stop curiously inquiring about Master Sanzang. After all, she has listened to Master Sanzang a lot these days. Things. Seeing the deity today, how could it be possible not to be curious?
The Queen of Xiliang, who was also following Lao Mu, saw Bai Suzhen and cast her eyes in the direction of Brother Yu from time to time. Later, when Brother Yu talked about the origin and origin of "Weizhizong", she even stared at her with a pair of eyes. Brother Yu's eyes were fixed so that Queen Xiliang couldn't help frowning secretly.

She definitely didn't like it because of this, but she was very helpless: Why is Yudigege who is only a monk, but he can attract women's love like this?
Of course, the Queen of Xiliang can tell that her Senior Sister Bai does not look at Brother Yu with admiration, but more curiosity. I can only hope in my heart that it is best to be limited to this .

Otherwise, there will be one more poor person in the Three Realms.

Mrs. Li Shan was also aware of this, but she was not worried about it. Although Bai Suzhen had the Buddha's disaster and the love calamity, neither of these should be reflected in Sanzang.

now.

On the altar, Master Sanzang, who was simply explaining the religious meaning of Consciousness-only, happened to look at Bai Suzhen at the same place when he talked about the fundamentality of "Dharma-appearance" to "Consciousness-only".

hiss--

Even Fa Hai couldn't help being shocked. There is no doubt that he recognized Bai Suzhen at a glance.

But the Fa Hai of today is definitely not the Fa Hai of the past. Even though he saw Bai Suzhen at this moment, even though his mind was a little flustered, his expression was still calm, and he even smiled and nodded to Bai Suzhen.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen didn't show any timidity, and even more generously bowed her hands to Master Sanzang.

But at the same time, there was something strange in my heart, and I said, "How do you feel that Master Tripitaka knows me?
"Eldest brother, does the master know this white girl?"

Xiao Bailong at the side saw that the master was still interacting with Bai Suzhen who was behind the old mu, so he couldn't help but asked the senior brother beside him via voice transmission.

"I probably don't know each other. Miss Bai said that she has practiced in Qingcheng Mountain since she was a child, and she also worshiped Lao Mu as her teacher recently, so she followed Lao Mu to walk in the Three Realms." When the Great Sage said this, he did not Too sure, "Master should not have had the chance to meet her, but it is also possible that Master went to Mount Qingcheng before leaving Chang'an to learn Buddhist scriptures; or Master's previous life, Jin Chanzi, may have met Miss Bai."

"It's strange to say." The Great Sage also said to Xiao Bailong: "When I saw her for the first time just now, I always felt like I saw her somewhere. Eh?"

As he said that, the Great Sage suddenly let out a light sigh, stared at the little white dragon for a long time, and then suddenly realized.

That's it!

It was you!
Only then did the Great Sage understand that when he saw Bai Suzhen, he was inexplicably familiar with it, but he was also very sure what happened to the weird illusion that he and Bai Suzhen were meeting for the first time.

Didn't the little white dragon on the westbound road always turn into a white snake to explore the way?

And the first time I saw Bai Suzhen, I saw through her real body with piercing eyes. What I felt familiar with was not her human form, but her white snake real body.

It is also interesting to say that her white snake real body is quite similar to the white snake transformed by the little white dragon.

The Great Sage also mentioned this matter to Xiao Bailong, and Xiao Bailong responded like this: "Oh, the shape of the white snake I changed into was exactly when I was a guest on Qingcheng Mountain with my father when I was young. , I saw a white snake. At that time, the white snake was going through the heavenly calamity, but it was a pity that it fell short in the end and died under the calamity."

The Great Sage himself is an expert in the "way of change", so he naturally knows the difficulty of imitating changes and making changes out of thin air.

The little white dragon changed based on the white snake he had seen back then, and it was even easier for the white dragon to transform into a white snake.

"Perhaps. The white snake you saw back then is very likely to be Bai Suzhen's father or mother." After hearing the words, the Great Sage came to such a conclusion.

The secret communication between the two of them had just ended, and the master's process before the opening of the sect on the altar had also gone by sevens and eights.

"Consciousness-only sect opens!"

Hearing Master's voice, Xiao Bailong immediately rose up into a dragon——

Bang!
Then there was a loud thunder, and the little white dragon bit the flower bouquet on the red cloth covering the plaque with the words "Weizhizong" engraved on it, and flew into the clouds with the red silk in its mouth.

Wujing transformed the Nine Spirits from the Nine Palaces. When he recited the scriptures, the Great Sage pulled out a handful of vellus hairs and blew lightly. Immediately, golden lotuses flooded and Bodhi took root. promote.

This time it was the monks who knelt down to worship first
No matter whether it is a monk from the Tang Dynasty or a monk from Xizhou, there is no exception.

Even the arhats and monks from Lingshan Mountain have a pious and solemn expression.
