Chapter 456 Tathagata compromises
"The bigger picture is the bigger picture."

Hearing the familiar four words, the expressions of the Buddhas in Lingshan changed.

These four words have been spoken many times over the past 4000 years.

And whenever these four words are spoken, the strong men in the three realms all give in.

This was the first time that they were persuaded by others to put the overall situation first.

"Emperor, do you really want to fight with swords?" Tathagata Buddha looked at Jiang Shan and said.

"What the Buddha said is strange. Didn't the Buddha bring people here first today? Chaos Yin and Yang, bad order, again, I dare to ask the Buddha what kind of explanation he wants to give, or if the emperor has to come to Lingshan, the Buddha will I’m willing to give you an explanation.” Jiang Shan looked at Tathagata Buddha and said with a smile.

"The emperor really wants to force Lingshan to come here. If the journey to the west is difficult, the three realms are damaged, and there are intact eggs under the overturned nest? The emperor really wants to see this scene." Tathagata Buddha said.

"Yes, the Buddha really wants to see this scene? For the sake of the Three Realms, why don't you ask the Buddha to sit down? The overall situation is more important." Jiang Shan asked loudly.

Tathagata Buddha's face changed for a while, and finally he stretched out one hand, reversed time and space, and opened up a unique space. Then he entered with the lamp-burning Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the reluctant Shanyoubu Buddha.

Jiang Shan understood what Tathagata Buddha meant, and the younger brothers couldn't bear to hear what happened next. They took Empress Houtu, Emperor Dongyue, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and Cho Ming into the world opened by Tathagata.

"What? Even the upright Buddha has some things that cannot be said outside, so why should he say them here?" Jiang Shan said jokingly.

"How can the emperor give up?" Tathagata Buddha said straight to the point.

"Randeng Buddha is sitting in his body." Jiang Shan chuckled.

The face of Ran Deng Ancient Buddha suddenly changed, it’s not over yet, is it?
"Emperor, please don't joke." Tathagata Buddha said with an ugly face, not to mention that Ran Deng is now gradually becoming one-minded with Tathagata. Even if there are still two minds, Ran Deng, as the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas, cannot die here.

Otherwise, if the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas in Buddhism was forced to death in public, why would Buddhism flourish?

Even their Buddhist sect will be divided first.

"What a joke, isn't it for the sake of the overall situation? Everything can be sacrificed?" Jiang Shan said.

"It is for the sake of the overall situation that we cannot make such hasty sacrifices. As we practice Buddhism, it is okay to pass away, but if we want to pass away, we must make it worthwhile." Tathagata Buddha retorted.

"Emperor, what is the situation in the three realms now? I think you already know that the demon is coming fiercely and is imminent. Only Jin Chanzi can save it. However, Jin Chanzi's cultivation is insufficient and must be strengthened with Mahayana Buddhism. Otherwise, he cannot defeat the demon and prosper Buddhism. , is a necessity for the three realms. And the world has a lot of prejudice against Xiniu Hezhou, and the slander against Buddhism has been accumulated for countless years. The prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain that you can't move no matter what. What Buddhism has done is indeed Biased, but if it is not so, let alone thousands of years, even a Yuanhui may not be able to reverse the prejudice. Although the emperor's actions today are taking care of some people, it will be harmful in the long run. With the emperor's clear opinion , shouldn’t be invisible.”

When Jiang Shan heard this, he immediately let out a sneer.

Tathagata Buddha frowned in displeasure and said, "Why is the emperor laughing?"

"I suddenly thought of a funny thing. I wanted to reason with you at first, but as soon as I came, I had to show my strength first. Ran Deng even empty-handedly accused me of colluding with the devil, and then I really admitted that I and The devil has colluded, and you have to reason with me again. Do you think it's funny or not?" Jiang Shan said with a smile.

Tathagata Buddha's face changed slightly and said: "It's not funny."

"But I think it's funny, and now the initiative is in my hands, so for the sake of the Three Realms, shouldn't Buddha laugh with me?" Jiang Shan said.

"The emperor is wrong, Jin Chanzi is my disciple, and now only Jin Chanzi can deal with the devil." Tathagata Buddha looked directly at Jiang Shan, I am the one who has the initiative.

To solve the current crisis in the three realms, we must rely on Buddhism and we must strengthen Buddhism.

"But I don't care. If I want to take refuge with Bo Xun, Bo Xun can make me the Demon Lord, and as long as I want, I can hand over Luo Shu at any time." Jiang Shan said matter-of-factly.

"You..." Tathagata Buddha's eyes widened, and he never expected Jiang Shan to answer this.

And more importantly, he didn't dare to gamble.

When Cho Ming saw this, he laughed heartlessly.

"The emperor has great compassion and is the true Buddha in the world. Why do you have to make such a joke?" Seeing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up helplessly and said. "Don't compliment me, I don't have any mercy. You are the most merciful one, Guanyin Bodhisattva." Seeing Guanyin come forward, Jiang Shan didn't dig deeper and said, "I'm a barbarian, I don't understand the overall situation, I only care about my inner thoughts. I don't like it. Bo Xun, so I came back to the Three Realms to give Buddha a chance to fight for me and get Luo Shu. But Buddha doesn’t cherish it. Or Buddha can contact the Great Heavenly Lord and Sanqing Daozu and let them put pressure on me, but to In the end, I don’t know who this pressure is on.”

Seeing Jiang Shan's fearless appearance, Tathagata Buddha took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Does the emperor really not care about the demons at all?"

He was unwilling to look for it. Firstly, he had his arrogance, and both the Jade Emperor and the Supreme Emperor had acquiesced. It would seem that he was too incompetent for him to ask for help. Secondly, Jiang Shan was so confident that he had obviously found someone. It's no use either.

"In this sentence, I should ask the Buddha, does the Buddha care about the demons? Do you want to resist the demons? Do you want to promote Buddhism? If so, then follow the rules of this emperor. I have studied the Buddha, and the Buddha should also have studied the emperor. Even heaven and earth cannot stop what this emperor decides to do. If you don't follow this emperor's rules, Buddha will be responsible for the consequences." Jiang Shan said.

Tathagata Buddha's face changed several times, "Is the emperor really not worried that the journey to the west will go astray?"

"If this is the case, it is destiny." Jiang Shan's eyes turned sharp, "You can establish Buddhism, you can also travel to the west, resisting the demons is the responsibility of the three realms, but you have to borrow this emperor's Luo Shu. Attitude, you must promote your teachings, and more importantly, you must be within the rules of this emperor. If you exceed the rules, I can congratulate you for not having to worry about the devil, because you don’t have to wait for the devil to kill you, I will kill you first!”

The ancient Buddha of Ran Deng felt a chill in his heart. He had a feeling that Jiang Shan was talking to him. After all, there were five people here, Tathagata, Jiang Shan couldn't kill him. Maitreya and Guanyin were old to Jiang Shan, and the Good Wandering Buddha was even more different. He himself was the same as Jiang Shan. Without friendship, I can't beat Jiang Shan.

"In the list, Jingfu and Changmei Arhats have made meritorious service to the Buddha. Can they be given a lighter sentence?" After all, Tathagata Buddha did not dare to gamble and retreated a step away.

Some people can't protect it and have no choice but to protect it, but some die-hards always need to protect it.

"No." Jiang Shan said simply and directly, "The heavens and the earth are round. Since they are within the heaven and the earth, there is no square outside, let alone anyone outside the square who can not abide by the law. Today I am not discussing with the Buddha, I am just here to inform you. Buddha. Buddhism must be prosperous, but it must be under the law. Otherwise, even if the Three Realms are destroyed, I will destroy all the Buddhas in your Lingshan Mountain first."

Tathagata Buddha's eyes were sharp, and he saw that Jiang Shan's eyes were calm and firm, as if he was not talking about something as big as the destruction of the Mountain of the Dead, but just a trivial matter.

"The old monk and the emperor have had a relationship. The emperor does not have authority. I don't know why?" Tathagata Buddha took a deep breath and said. He saw Jiang Shan's determination and Jiang Shan's madness.

He endured.

It’s just that he didn’t understand. From Jiang Shan’s words, he was sure that Jiang Shan had no intention of hindering the journey to the west, and the journey to the west was indeed unstoppable. In this way, the final result was that the journey to the west would continue, and Jiang Shan, the person who is currently obstructing the journey to the west, would wait until the journey to the west. After success, it turns out to be disadvantageous.

According to his understanding of Jiang Shan, this is not in line with Jiang Shan's behavior.

why?
"Because I am willing." Jiang Shan said, "One thought becomes a Buddha, and one thought becomes a demon. In these years, what you think of as sacrificing for the overall situation, do you know that in their eyes, there is no difference between you and demons? Buddha is for enlightenment, and for universality. To save sentient beings, to cut their flesh to feed eagles, and to throw their bodies into tigers, although they are ignorant, they still have great love. But now what are you talking about with me about the overall situation and choices? Are you cultivating Buddhism or demons? If the minority obeys the majority, It is appropriate to kill a small number of people and leave the majority alive, so do all sentient beings need your salvation? And you who are used to killing, are you really worthy of becoming a Buddha?"

When Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva heard this, he looked at Jiangshan as if he saw the Buddha.

At this moment, Jiang Shan was glowing in His eyes.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva stood up and bowed to Jiangshan as a disciple: "Thank you very much for your teachings, emperor. For many years, this poor monk has only thought about the hundreds of millions of people in the three realms, but he has forgotten some things. He must know that he cannot do it, and he must not forget it. nature."

Maitreya Buddha's expression was subtle. At that time, he felt that although Jiang Shan could not abide by the Buddhist rules and precepts, he could cultivate Buddhism. Today, he was even more sure.

"The world is like this, and the old monk also needs to act according to what the world thinks." Tathagata Buddha explained.

"I am one of the people in the world, so the Buddha should do what I want in the future." Jiang Shan looked at Tathagata Buddha and said.

"Everyone on the list is to be handed over to the emperor. In addition, Buddhism still lacks a Bodhisattva. It is better to ask the emperor's second brother to incarnate as Guan Yu and enter Buddhism as a protector Bodhisattva and supervise Buddhism, so that the emperor can feel at ease." Tathagata Buddha said.

He didn't want to agree, but right now, there was no chance he wouldn't agree.

Jiang Shan was more willing than him, so he had no choice.

What's more, among the four great creations of Buddhism, except for the burning lamp, Ksitigarbha clearly follows Jiang Shan, Guanyin is on his side, his heart is on Jiang Shan's side, and Maitreya is not entirely on his side.

If he compromises disgracefully, he may become passive and decent.

"This is the best." Jiang Shan smiled.
