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

Chapter 269 I am the Buddha, and the Buddha is me!
"what?"

Somewhere, Zen Master Huiming seemed to have discovered something.

He looked at Bodhidharma with some astonishment, and seemed a little surprised.

Immediately, a look of appreciation appeared in the bottom of his eyes.

"A mere Bodhisattva at the fruition level dares to confront the Tathagata head-on, what a formidable future generation!"

Zen Master Huiming suddenly laughed out loud.

This smile seemed to be appreciative, but also seemed to be mocking Bodhidharma's overreaching.

however.

Not long after.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Zen Master Huiming frowned, his expression became strange.

Staring at Bodhidharma, he didn't speak for a long time.

Paused.

Zen Master Huiming was slightly absent-minded, and murmured: "The barrier of heaven set up by Tathagata was actually forcibly broken by this monk?"

However, this is only the second.

What shocked and surprised him the most was.

From Bodhidharma's body, he actually sensed a supreme power different from Buddhist supernatural powers.

"This power should belong to Taoism... Yuxu Palace..."

At this time, Zen Master Huiming finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Staring at Bodhidharma, his face was gloomy.

"You monk, who is also a Buddhist, was not expelled from Buddhism by the Tathagata. You are so lucky!"

There was resentment in Zen Master Huiming's tone.

Back then.

Together with the Tathagata, he was swallowed into the belly of the Peacock Daming King, and with the help of the power of the world-destroying black lotus, he was conceived again.

In order to purify the demonic nature in him, the Ancient Buddha Di Deng accepted him as a disciple and taught him with all his heart, hoping to resolve it with boundless Dharma.

Later, he did not live up to the expectations of the lamp. With the body of Mara, he diligently practiced the Dharma and became a bodhisattva.

Immediately after the lamp was lit, Kinnara was allowed to enter the world for many kalpas, in order to pray for a thousand feet to make a step forward, to be promoted to Buddha, and to completely end this period of Buddha and demon karma.

Kinnara would like to obey his teacher's order and act according to his words.

Facing the mortal world, under the alias Zen Master Jianzhai, he used the Landa Temple as his ashram. At a young age, he became the fourth abbot of the Landa Temple.

The seventh year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty in Nanfangbuzhou.

Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty dreamed of the strange gods of the West at night, so he sent his doctor, Cai Min, and his doctor's student Qin Jing, to Tianzhu to seek Buddhist scriptures.

Arrived at Lingshan Mountain in Tianzhu, stayed at Landa Temple, and had a good talk with Zen Master Jianzhai.

Later, Zen Master Jianzhai went to Nanfangbuzhou alone to preach and preach according to the order of the Buddha.

The appearance of Zen Master Jianzhai aroused the vigilance of Taoists.

Xuanzong of the Taoist school has repeatedly made things difficult.

However, with the efforts of Zen Master Jianzhai, he was finally recognized by the Taoist school.

Zen Master Jianzhai is allowed to preach under certain conditions.

Unexpectedly.

When Chan Master Jianzhai returned to Lingshan to pay the Buddha's decree, the World Honored One reprimanded him for being weak in the Buddha's heart, being deceived by the beauty of the world, breaking the precepts of sex, and not allowed in Lingshan, and insisted on expelling him from Buddhism.

Zen Master Jianzhai was greatly stimulated, so one thought became a demon.

After several years of operation, he led countless demons to attack Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan, intending to subvert Buddhism.

But after all, it is not Tathagata's opponent.

The abyss of darkness behind the Yin Mountain was suppressed by the Tathagata, and it has been trapped for hundreds of years without seeing the sun.

"Back then, Ashu and I were innocent, and Ashu died because of me, but Tathagata expelled me from the Buddhist gate indiscriminately. From that day on, I made a vow to take down Lingshan, become the World Honored One, and change the injustice! "

Zen Master Huiming recalled the past for a moment.

Especially when I thought of Ah Shu.

The expression in his eyes suddenly softened a lot.

"But the Bodhidharma monk in front of me, as a disciple of Buddhism, has supernatural powers of Taoism. This action is tantamount to a traitor of Buddhism!"

Zen Master Huiming's eyes suddenly became fierce, "However, the Tathagata did not expel him from the Buddhist sect. He was treated so unfairly, how could he deserve the title of the World-Honored Buddha!"

Combined with what I have experienced in the past, the more I think about it, the more I feel that Tathagata is hypocritical and unfair.

Think as far as you can.

Countless black demonic energy gushed out of his body, rushing towards the surroundings like an overwhelming mountain.

It seems that it wants to swallow everything around it and refine it into a scorched earth demon realm.

see.

Everyone hurriedly retreated to avoid being contaminated by the devilish energy.

"Amitabha!"

A Buddha's chant sounded gently.

All of a sudden, golden light swept across the void.

Resist the dark energy.

Just like morning dew meeting the scorching sun, the black devil energy evaporated in an instant, and all retreated into Zen Master Huiming's body at once.

"Why should the monk be angry?"

Dharma smiled lightly.

"The Tathagata can be unfair, but I can't be angry?"

Zen Master Huiming said in a cold voice.

"The great monk is just incompetent and furious!"

Dharma was outspoken.

A few words made Zen Master Huiming break his defense instantly, "What did you say? I am incompetent and furious?"

But seeing Zen Master Huiming's face, there was a flash of coldness and resentment.

A large amount of black devil energy surged wildly, like a sea of ​​clouds rolling, surging around Zen Master Huiming's body.

Suddenly, it turned into a wild beast, ferocious and ferocious, with its teeth and claws.

It seemed that he wanted to devour Bodhidharma in one gulp.

Seeing this, everyone at the scene tensed up, fearing that Zen Master Huiming would suddenly attack.

however.

Bodhidharma was extremely calm and indifferent.

"Is not it?"

Glancing at the other party, Bodhidharma said slowly, "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, they treat all things as straw dogs, saints are not benevolent, and treat common people as straw dogs, fairness and injustice care about people's hearts, but more about strength!"

"Your strength is inferior to Tathagata, but you are only here to be unable to rage, and even blame others. Isn't it a coward's move?"

Hear this.

Zen Master Huiming, who was originally full of anger, gradually calmed down at this moment.

He bowed his head and pondered, thoughtfully.

Paused.

Zen Master Huiming raised his head and looked at Bodhidharma with a strange look.

"As a Buddhist disciple, one should have no desires or desires, but your words are so tyrannical, it is against the rules of Buddhism!"

Zen Master Huiming said coldly.

"Since there are no desires and no demands, where do the Buddhist rules come from? Since there are Buddhist rules, how can we talk about no desires and no demands?"

"Oh? It's interesting!"

Zen Master Huiming narrowed his eyes slightly, "In this way, you are also a Buddhist, but the Tathagata did not expel you from Buddhism, because of your strength?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in the words.

Although he also recognized Bodhidharma's strength, on the bright side, Bodhidharma is only a human bodhisattva after all, and there is still a big gap between him and the Tathagata, who is the world-honored Buddha.

Who knows, Bodhidharma smiled and shook his head, "I am the Buddha, and the Buddha is me, how can Tathagata drive me out?"

It sounded like an unremarkable sentence, like a thunderbolt, falling from the sky, and ruthlessly landed on the Tianling Gai.

Zen Master Huiming was shocked.

"I am the Buddha, the Buddha is me, how can the Tathagata drive me out?"

Deep in my heart, these words kept echoing.

It was as if a turbulent wave had exploded in the sea, and one wave rose again after another, violently washing against the rock in his heart.

Sudden.

At this moment, a dazzling but peaceful white light flew out from Zen Master Huiming's body.

The white light fell to the ground.

Turned into a monk in white.

But seeing the whole body of the white-clothed monk, bathed in the holy Buddha light, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and a solemn treasure, people look at him and feel awe.

"This is?"

Bodhidharma recognized it immediately, "No sky in white clothes?"
