Journey to the West: Asking the Heavens

Chapter 709 Bet
"Amitabha!"

A magnificent sound of the Buddha's horn suddenly sounded outside the Lingxiao Palace, and it spread throughout the entire heaven in an instant.In the sound of this Buddha's trumpet, there is a sense of great compassion and Zen. Wherever the sound passed, the purple sky thunder that was about to hit Monkey Sun was instantly annihilated into nothingness, and Monkey Sun was even more It was all over the body, the fighting spirit disappeared, and there was only peace and tranquility left in the heart, without any other negative emotions.

hum... hum...

One after another Buddha's light pierced the sky, the Buddha's light was pure and clear, and there was a unique sense of Zen that cleansed people's hearts. In the entire heavenly court, there was also a grand sound of chanting, which was clearly audible.

Immediately after the sound of chanting sutras, blossoming golden lotuses emerged out of thin air and fell continuously from the sky. In front of the entire Lingxiao Palace, there was a strange fragrance for a while, and everyone forgot to fight, but turned towards the Western Buddha. Look where the light shines.

However, in the Buddha's light, a thousand-foot-sized Buddha revealed his figure. The Buddha's face was plump and round, and his facial features were peaceful and compassionate. He sat cross-legged on a twelfth-grade golden lotus platform. Qingyun, the person who looks good is not vulgar, it is the Tathagata Buddha, the master of Daleiyin Temple!
"Little God pay respects to my Buddha Tathagata!"

All the righteous gods of the Leibu and many other gods outside the Lingxiao Palace saw this old Buddha appear, and they all put their hands together and saluted respectfully. The Lingguan Dutian Wang beside the Jade Emperor also bowed meticulously to the Tathagata Buddha.

This ceremony is not because the Tathagata has a higher status than the two of them. One of them is the Heavenly Venerable of the Thunder Department, and the other is the True Monarch of the Heavenly Court. They are both high-ranking and powerful people. Two people are like this.This ceremony, one is to cooperate with the Buddhist drama and improve the status of the Tathagata, and the other is a kind of respect for the Buddha's power and deeds.

In the Three Realms, what restrains gods and demons is not the benevolence, righteousness, loyalty, filial piety, and relatives of heaven and earth, but the real fists. On the way of cultivation, those who have achieved it are the first. , these people also have to salute, only mana can rule everything in this world!
The Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Palace saw all the gods and soldiers bowing in front of the Tathagata, he couldn't help laughing and said: "This group of monks should be satisfied now!"

Are you acting? For such a big scene, the dignity of heaven is sacrificed to highlight the status of Buddhism. Let alone the influence of the lower world, but the monkey grandson present, seeing this scene, the status of Buddhism in his heart is probably far away. Overcome heaven and go.

This is the effect that the Second Saints of the West wanted, but it was not what the gods of heaven wanted. Even though the Second Saints of the West used many methods and promised many benefits, in the end, the Jade Emperor never even showed his face, not only the Jade Emperor Let's see, besides the General of Leibu, how many great gods are there?

In the past, it was enough to play with the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain, but the Lingxiao Palace represents the majesty of the heaven, and the gods are required to put down their bodies and play monkey shows in front of the Lingxiao Palace, and they must cooperate with the Buddhist performances and let the Buddhists step on it , who would agree to these arrogant gods?

In fact, there are two saints in the West, and none of the saints paid their blood, and there will not even be such a scene today.Thinking about how powerful Nezha and other heavenly generals are, in the blink of an eye, there is nowhere to go between heaven and earth, but the big show in front of Lingxiao Palace has been sung for so long, besides these Leibu generals, can anyone come to support?Not only did no one rush to support, but even the star kings and generals who had shot to stop the monkey didn't come back to this place after being rushed past, and all retreated back to the mansion to watch the show.

"Amitabha, all the gods and generals, the poor monk is also polite."

Old Buddha Tathagata smiled peacefully, clasped his hands together, and nodded slightly, as a return of courtesy.

The gods stood up straight, and Wang Lingguan, who got the task early and was in charge of cheering, said with a 'surprised' face: "Buddha, you came just in time, the little god and others are teaming up to capture this man who escaped from Tushita Palace and caused a disturbance in the heavenly court." Monstrous monkey, I also ask the Buddha to give you a helping hand to take down this monstrous monkey."

"Monkey monkey, monster monkey, you are the monster monkey. My old grandson is the great sage equal to heaven, and he was appointed by the Jade Emperor. What are you talking nonsense about?!" Monkey waved the iron stick in his hand, and said very dissatisfied.

This monkey doesn't value power very much, but he likes to listen to good words and save face, otherwise, how can he proclaim himself the Monkey King, and how can he be deceived into heaven by a short-handed Monkey King and abandon the Seven Great Saints of the Monster Race The remaining six in?

"Great Sage Equaling Heaven, you are Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Although the poor monk is practicing in Lingshan, he has heard of your name, but he speaks very loudly."

Tathagata Buddha saw the monkey beating, instead of being angry, he was happy, and said: "What ability do you have, dare to be with the sky?"

"Hey, my old grandson is very capable!"

Under the shroud of the Buddha's light, Sun Houzi could not feel the tyrannical atmosphere of Zhen Yuanzi's and others' fighting skills. He didn't even have the idea of ​​running away. He just wanted to show off in front of the great monk. He said loudly : "The Jade Emperor sent a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers to embarrass my old grandson, but in the end he couldn't help me. On the stage of Zhuxian, he was struck by lightning with an axe, and even used the gossip furnace in Tushiita Palace. He couldn't kill me, even Before my old grandson beat me to this Lingxiao Palace, all the gods and Buddhas in the sky had no choice but to take my old grandson, and the Jade Emperor didn't dare to show up to see me, do you think my old grandson's ability can take the position of the Jade Emperor?"

The monkey proudly boasted of his achievements, and all the gods present couldn't help laughing. They said that the Jade Emperor didn't dare to show up. If the Jade Emperor really wanted to show up, he was afraid that he would be crushed to death with just a few fingers. The Buddha has nothing to do with him, if it wasn't for acting with this monkey, the general of Guanglei Department could easily capture him, didn't he watch Wen Zhong watch the whole play without doing anything?

That is to say, these gods have excellent professionalism, so they can forcefully hold back their smiles with no expression on their faces. However, observing the saints here, they can't stop laughing from ear to ear. After all, there is also a saint involved. The head of the Supreme Saint came.

The Tathagata sighed, the ignorant are fearless, Sun Houzi really needs to sharpen his mind so that he can take on the great cause of learning the scriptures.

He scolded: "You still want to be the Jade Emperor. Do you know that the Jade Emperor has suffered all kinds of hardships when he became the Lord of the Three Realms? He has practiced since he was a child, and has experienced 750 kalpas. Each kalpa should be 12 Nine thousand, six hundred years. Do you think, how many years should he have before he can enjoy this infinite way? How dare you, a bastard who was born as a human in the first life, make such a big statement?!"

"Why is my old grandson talking so loudly? Although he has practiced for a long time and has gone through disasters, the great monk has not heard the truth that 'the emperor takes turns to sit at my house next year', besides, my old grandson is not a person who waits for nothing, he will be evil 72 Such a change, somersaulting clouds can travel hundreds of thousands of miles in an instant, and their supernatural powers are far better than this Jade Emperor's child, so it makes sense to call me Jade Emperor." The monkey said seriously.

I have to say that the monkey's words are indeed reasonable. The position of emperor of heaven is constantly changing, and it has always been held by the strong, but his Da Luo Jinxian's Taoism is not convincing. , and with the acquiescence of Daozu Hongjun, it is still possible to compete with the Jade Emperor for the position of Lord of the Three Realms.

Seeing the monkey's self-confidence, Tathagata didn't bother to say much, he stretched out his palm and said, "Since you say you are so good, then the poor monk will make a bet with you, you say that somersaulting clouds can do a thousand things." Here, today you do a somersault on the poor monk's slap, if you can get out of the poor monk's slap, you will be considered a winner. The poor monk should persuade the Jade Emperor to go to the Western Buddhism to meditate, and you will be the emperor of heaven , if you can't get out of the poor monk's slap, but you don't need to mention the Jade Emperor anymore, you can go down to the world with peace of mind and become a demon, and practice for a few more kalpas, what do you think?!"

Sun Houzi heard about the bet and looked at Tathagata's big palm. He couldn't help but feel happy, and said to himself: "Although this guy's palm is wide, my old grandson can't jump out with such a big palm if he can go somersaulting for thousands of miles." , he is doomed to lose today!"

Thinking of this, Hou'er said: "Okay, my old grandson will make a bet with you, I only hope that you will keep your promise, great monk!"

That fleshy palm was unremarkable, without any strange appearance, no wonder the short-sighted monkey grandson dared to agree.All the gods and generals lamented that the monkey's good life is over. The Tathagata Buddha holds the Buddha's kingdom in his hands. It is obvious that he fought with all the gods and demons in the blood sea before. It is not something Monkey Sun can resist. Stealing pills and wine, After eating all the flat peaches, today is the day when all the monkeys will return!
Tathagata got Sun Houzi's consent, he still had a kind smile on his face, not a bit excited, he said with a smile: "Well, the poor monk will learn your methods from the great sage!"

"Great monk, open your eyes and watch!" Sun Houzi snorted coldly, his figure flickered, and he landed in the wide Buddha's palm.He looked at the Buddha's palm under his feet, but didn't notice anything unusual, and immediately said: "Let's start now, my grandson will go!"

When it comes to words, Sun Houzi has all his mana, but he uses it to activate the flying magic power of somersaulting cloud.Dazzling golden light suddenly burst out from his body, and then his whole body turned into a golden meteor, rushing towards the distance at an extremely fast speed!

Want to go?

There was a slight smile on the corner of Tathagata's mouth, and a ray of golden Buddha's light suddenly bloomed in that palm, and then, a big world appeared in his palm silently, covering the grandson monkey.

That big world is actually a Buddha kingdom in the palm of the Tathagata. There are countless devout believers and Dharma guardian gods in it. In the past, they chanted scriptures day and night, but today they all disappeared. It has disappeared in the Buddha Kingdom.This is because the Tathagata Buddha was afraid that the monkey grandson would not be able to withstand the pressure of the Buddha kingdom in his hands, so he deliberately let these gods and believers disperse. Yes, that really fell short.

However, although most of the power of the Buddha Kingdom in the palm has been absorbed, the self-contained world of the Buddha Kingdom in the palm alone cannot be broken free by Da Luo Jinxian.This is a big world refined by the quasi-holy third heaven realm powerhouse. It is different from those worlds in the heavens and myriad worlds. Sun Houzi still has a chance if he is a quasi-holy level powerhouse, but he is just a big Luo Jinxian. Break through the boundary wall and fly out?

The monkey somersaulted through the clouds and rode the fog, and galloped heartily in the big world of the Buddha Kingdom in his palm. In an instant, he had already passed an unknown distance. The monkey looked down, and there was no shadow of half of the palm, only grasslands, woodlands, valleys and snow hills. , a mortal scene.

He secretly rejoiced that the Tathagata old Buddha had lost the bet, and he was about to sit on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven. Just as he thought about it, suddenly his eyes blurred. At some point, five thick pillars of heaven appeared in front of him that went straight up to the sky.

"Hey hey hey, the Tianzhu is here. If you want to come here, it is the end of heaven and earth. This is the Jade Emperor. My old grandson is sure to sit down!"

Sun Houzi stopped, and while circling around those pillars, he said to himself, "No, I have to leave some marks, otherwise what will happen if the great monk refuses to admit it later?"

Thinking of this, he saw that the monkey grandson pulled out a monkey hair, blew a breath, and the hair immediately turned into a pair of pens covered with thick ink, and wrote a line of big characters on the middle pillar: "Qi Tian!" The great sage is here for a visit." After finishing writing, the man gave a wretched smile, took off his pants, and pissed monkey urine under the first pillar.

Tathagata and a group of gods can clearly see everything that happened in the world in the palm. Those gods are secretly frightened by the audacity of the monkey grandson, who dared to pee in Tathagata's palm, and Tathagata frowned slightly. The empress of the Buddhist sect has never been humiliated like this before in the Buddhist sect, and today is the first time she has been humiliated like this!
The poor monkey didn't know that his every move was under the eyes of others, he just used his mana, unfurled somersault clouds, and returned to the original place in an instant, the Tathagata also took great pains to withdraw the Buddha Kingdom in his palm in advance, so as to prevent this guy from being here Lost in the world and can't find it.

"Great monk, you lost!"

As soon as Sun Houzi came back, he said triumphantly: "My old grandson got out of your palm a long time ago and wrote eight large characters on the Tianzhu at the end of heaven and earth. Why don't you hurry up and ask the Jade Emperor to leave?" , Let my grandson enter the Lingxiao Palace?"

However, the one who greeted him was the Tathagata's sullen scolding voice: "What a brazen monkey who is still writing on the sky pillar, look at what the poor monk's middle finger is?!"

Sun Houzi was shocked when he heard the words, and looked back subconsciously, but saw that the eight characters of "The Monkey King is here to visit" were clearly written on the middle finger of the Tathagata's palm. The smell of urine is overwhelming!

"Well, you monkey grandson, dare to pee on the poor monk's palm, so rude, but today I won't let you go!"

Tathagata finished speaking with a grim expression, turned his palms over, and was about to put Sun Monkey on the ground!

But monkeys are clever by nature, not to mention the monkey grandson, who knows how to make the most of the wind. When he sees the Tathagata, he really wants to make a move. Without thinking about it, he subconsciously performs a somersault cloud and wants to flee to the distance... …
