Journey to the West: The poor monk Bodhidharma, the supreme Buddhist and Taoist

Chapter 205 Jinghe Dragon King!

The deep seabed is deserted and quiet, with no light at all. Occasionally, schools of fish with strange shapes swim past silently.

With Bodhidharma's cultivation at this time, he can freely come and go in the sea without even using the water avoidance formula.

However, the underwater world was quite novel, so Bodhidharma couldn't help but look around and took a few extra glances.

Seeing this, Kassapa smiled and said, "Is this the first time Bodhidharma Bodhisattva has gone into the sea?"

As Tathagata's right-hand man, Kassapa certainly knew of Bodhidharma's existence.

Moreover, he also knew that Tathagata had even thought of killing Bodhidharma.

But in the end nothing happened.

Even the World-Honored One of Lingshan didn't dare to do anything easily, so Kasyapa naturally didn't dare to offend him.

At the same time, Kassapa was also very curious about the origin of Bodhidharma.

First time... going to sea? !

Why does it always sound so awkward?
It was as if my trip was not to visit Fahai in the Dragon Palace, but to go to Dongying Island to make a film!
"Presumably Venerable Kasyapa often goes into the sea?"

Dharma asked.

"Yes!"

Kasyapa smiled, "When I went to sea for the first time, I was similar to you. I was under a lot of pressure and a little nervous. Even after going ashore, I always felt exhausted, as if my whole body had been exhausted. It was hollowed out, but over time, I got used to it!"

Ok?
This is the first time we met, and we started to exchange experience on sailing?
Bodhidharma was trying to say that he wasn't nervous, stressed, or exhausted.

Haven't spoken yet.

Just at this time.

Not far ahead, there was a sudden shout: "Where is the one who pushes the water? Make it clear, so I can greet you!"

Look closely.

It turned out to be the Yasha patrolling the sea.

Kasyapa stepped forward, folded his palms together and said: "Poor monk Kasyapa, I heard that the Dragon King of the West Sea is happy to have a dragon son, and I am here to congratulate you on the order of the World Honored One of Lingshan!"

"It turned out to be Venerable Kasyapa!"

Yasha was both surprised and happy, "Hold on a moment, my lord, I will report to the Dragon King right now!"

After saying that, he turned around and swam to the deepest part of the sea at the fastest speed.

Not long after.

A burst of melodious fairy music Kagura came from afar.

Ao Run led the sons and grandsons of the dragon, the shrimp soldiers and the crab generals, and came out to meet them in person.

A long distance away, he heard a hearty laughter: "Xiaolong didn't know that Venerable Kasyapa was coming, so he was far away to welcome him, and he hoped to forgive his sins!"

"A good neighbor is happy to have a dragon son, and I, Lingshan, should come to congratulate me!"

Kasyapa returned the salute and said with a smile, "What's more, this son has a predestined relationship with my Buddhism!"

"Oh? Really?"

Ao Run was overjoyed.

Immediately, Kasyapa and Dharma were led into the Crystal Dragon Palace.

As for Bodhidharma, seeing his young age, he thought he was just Kasyapa's attendant, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

At this time, the Crystal Dragon Palace was already full of aquariums from all over the world who came to congratulate them.

Including Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea and so on.

Among the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, only Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South Sea, is still on the way.

All the people at the scene heard that Kasyapa was ordered by the World Honored One of Lingshan, and they came here to congratulate him, and they were all sensational.

To know.

Since 500 years ago, the Tathagata subdued the monstrous monkey making troubles in the heaven with profound prajna, the name of the Tathagata Buddha has spread all over the four continents.

After that, everyone in the sky and on the earth knew that there was a Spirit Mountain World-Honored One in the West who had great supernatural powers and boundless mana.

more importantly.

In recent years, Buddhism has developed rapidly, and believers have spread widely, not to mention Xiniu Hezhou, and even Nanfangbuzhou is in full swing.

It is said that the Heavenly Court of Taoism once owed Buddhism a period of cause and effect, and Buddhism will flourish in Nanfang Buzhou a hundred years later.

At that time, the Buddhist sect will add another sage of the heavenly way, who will truly stand up to Xuanzong of the Taoist sect.

But now, the Dragon King of Xihai was happy to have a dragon son. Unexpectedly, the World Honored One of Lingshan was alarmed, and Kasyapa was sent to congratulate him in person.

Such a great honor is no less than a reward from the Jade Emperor.

"This Venerable Kasyapa is a disciple of the Tathagata Buddha, and he came to congratulate him in person. No wonder Ao Run almost made his mouth crooked just now..."

"From this point of view, the origin of the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea must not be simple!"

"Backed by the big tree of Buddhism, the third prince of Yulong was destined to have a bright future as soon as he was born!"

……

There was a lot of discussion on the spot.

Ao Run was naturally happy in his heart, and introduced them one by one to Kasyapa: "This is my eldest brother, Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, and this is my fourth brother, Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea..."

Kasyapa smiled and folded his hands together.

"This is the Jinghe Dragon King who has just been conferred by the Heavenly Court..."

heard here.

Bodhidharma couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "Jinghe Dragon King?"

Unexpectedly, today I would meet this unlucky guy in the West Sea Dragon Palace.

But then I thought again.

It seems not surprising that the Dragon King of Jinghe appeared in the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Because, in the original novel Journey to the West, the Dragon King of Jinghe was originally Ao Shun's brother-in-law, so it can be seen that this guy's identity is not ordinary.

only.

Bodhidharma unexpectedly met this key figure in the beginning of Journey to the West here.

Right now.

Ao Run had finished introducing all the people present, and ordered someone to carry the Third Prince Yulong out.

"Since this son has a predestined relationship with Buddhism, please ask the Venerable to give him a name!"

Ao Run laughed.

"Shall I ask the poor monk to give me a name? Uh... why not call it Ao, Ao, Ao..."

Kasyapa didn't think of a good name for a moment.

"Why don't you call me Ao Lie!"

Dharma interrupted suddenly.

"Ao Lie?"

Ao Run pondered a little.

"Good name! I think it's a good name!"

Kaye hurriedly said.

"In that case, let's call him Ao Lie!"

Ao Run stroked his beard and smiled.

As he said this, he glanced curiously at Bodhidharma inadvertently.

"Is this monk really a follower of Venerable Kasyapa? Why does it always feel like something is wrong!"

Ao Run was suspicious.

But in front of Kasyapa and Bodhidharma, he didn't say anything after all.

"Dragon King, the poor monk wants to see this child, is it possible?"

"of course can!"

Ao Run hurriedly asked Long Po to hold Ao Lie and approached Kasyapa.

Unexpectedly, Ao Lie, who was originally quiet, burst into tears as soon as he saw Kasyapa.

"Amitabha, good is good!"

Kasyapa stretched out his palm and gently stroked the top of Ao Lie's head.

At the same time, there was something in his mouth, "Don't cry, don't cry, the future is foretold, and the Eastland will become a Buddha and an ancestor after a hundred years!"

"Ok?"

Dharma's eyes darkened slightly.

Because, he keenly discovered that Kassapa had secretly moved his hands and feet.

But in the eyes of outsiders, Kasyapa's actions seemed to be taking the precepts for Aoli Moding.

Even Ao Run thinks so.

"I see!"

Dharma suddenly realized, "The purpose of Kassapa's trip is indeed for the layout of Journey to the West a hundred years later!"

"Senior Brother Fa Hai..."

At this moment.

But seeing that Kassapa had retracted his palm, he wanted to turn back.

Bodhidharma immediately stepped forward, following Kasyapa's example, gently stroking the top of Ao Lie's head with his palm.

A ray of spiritual power quietly entered Ao Lie's mind.

"Senior brother, whether you can change your fate in the future depends on you!"

After doing this.

With a flick of his sleeve, Bodhidharma turned around and left the West Sea Dragon Palace under everyone's puzzled gaze.
