The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 29 0029, Looking for the Buddhists in the Lower Realm
Xitian Lingshan, the Tathagata Buddha sits in the middle of the main hall, and on both sides are the famous Buddhas in the Buddhist world.In the past, they all practiced in their respective ashrams, but today they were summoned by the Buddha for a meeting, and they didn't know what happened.

The Buddha looked around and said in a deep voice: "I invite you here today to discuss a big matter with you. So many years have passed, do you still remember the demons at the time?"

All the Buddhas were shocked when they heard the words. That incident was a catastrophe back then.When the Tathagata attained the golden body, a soul escaped from his body.He listened to Tathagata Buddha lectures and chanted scriptures all day long, and then he cultivated himself into reality.After the Tathagata attained the golden body, the magic power of the inner demon increased sharply.

He could compete with the Tathagata Buddha at that time, and naturally he was not something ordinary Buddhas could deal with.What's more, he and the Tathagata have the same mind, and the Tathagata can't find him even if he tries everything.The inner demon fled to the human world and opened the gate of the demon world that had been closed for 8000 years.The human world is occupied by the demon world, and the heavenly world is also threatened.

In the end, the Tathagata led all the Buddhas to support, and this forced the Heavenly Court and the Demon Realm to lose both sides.There are tens of thousands of gods in the heavens, but there are more than tens of thousands of demons in the devil world.Moreover, among them there is no shortage of demon emperors and saints who have cultivated for more than ten thousand years, and the strength is equal to or even higher than that of the heavenly king Tota.

When the Buddhas stopped discussing, Tathagata continued: "The appearance of the demon is just a coincidence, but if he is allowed to return to the Three Realms, it will bring a catastrophe. If no one can stop this catastrophe, then the demon will have It may lead the Three Realms. This will not only affect the safety of our Buddhist world, but will also affect the life and death of the entire Three Realms and Six Paths."

Avalokitesvara said: "Buddha, please tell me what to do, and we will all help."

Maitreya Buddha said with a smile: "If the Buddha has anything to say, just say it, and everyone will work together to eliminate the demons."

Tathagata nodded slightly, threw out something that looked like a map, and said to the Buddhas: "I have used three years to deduce this. The demons may appear in these places. He needs someone to help him rebirth, but Now nobody knows what form he will take."

On that picture, every place passed from the starting point to the end point is clearly marked.The starting point is Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty in the human world, and the ending point is Daleiyin Temple in the Lingshan Mountain of West Heaven where they are located.This route is winding and tortuous, covering a distance of one hundred and eight thousand miles.But for Buddhas like them, a hundred and eight thousand miles is just the effort of a cup of tea.

Tathagata said: "If you want to confirm the possible rebirth of these demons, you must send someone to walk the route on foot. And this person must have powerful mana, otherwise even if you find the demons, you may be killed by the demons." Refining. At this time of crisis in the Three Realms, who among the Buddhas is willing to go there?"

"Reporting to the Buddha, the old monk Ran Deng is willing to go." The ancient Buddha Di Deng in a purple cassock said after bowing to the Tathagata.

Tathagata hastily returned the salute, and replied: "The ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp doesn't need to be too polite. The journey is difficult and there are many demons haunting you. It's not that the little monk is worried about you, it's really that you are not suitable for this important task."

"Buddha, Maitreya is willing to go." Old Buddha Maitreya said with a smile.

Tathagata said: "I accept Brother Maitreya's wishes, but you are already in the human world every day, and so many people need you to save them. This will delay many things for you."

After that, several people recommended themselves and wanted to carry out this mission.But they were rejected by Tathagata for various reasons.Finally, the Tathagata looked at Master Guanyin.

She is one of the few female Buddhas, and also a Bodhisattva of great compassion in the hearts of mortals in the human world.She only said one sentence from beginning to end, and she will definitely support the decision made by Buddha.The two knew each other with a smile, and it was tacit understanding that in the entire hall, only Guanyin understood the Tathagata's mind.

The gathering of Buddhas once in a thousand years, there is only one person missing in the main hall at this time.Some people know but don't dare to say it, some people know it but don't want to say it.But none of them knew whether the punishment for that person was the original intention of the Buddha.The reincarnation of the ninth life has reached the tenth life, is it true that that person will never be able to return to Lingshan?

Tathagata said: "I once had a student who was the most proud of me. He was outspoken and never knew how to be tactful. He was once ridiculed but not retaliated, and was once despised but not inferior. Ordinary people only need to do it for 500 years. If he works hard, he will need to pay the previous 500 years of hard work..."

Only the Tathagata was speaking above the main hall, and all the Buddhas were silent.Even if the Tathagata asks everyone, there will only be silence in the end.Although everyone has a compassionate heart, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps after being together for a long time.Among them, that person has the most enemies. Of course, this enemy has a different understanding from ordinary people in the human world.

The understanding of Buddhist scriptures is different, the views on Buddhism are opposite, and the views on a certain time are inconsistent.As far as the Buddhist world is concerned, these will turn two people into enemies.Even often quarreling and arguing, and some extreme ones will copy guys' hands.

What is the most painful thing for people, this sentence has such an explanation in the Buddhist scriptures.

The most painful thing for people is that they can't get and have lost. They always want what they can't get, and regret what they have lost.In fact, many people don't understand that some things are gained but lost.

For example, Jin Chanzi is obsessed with wanting to see the world clearly.So after nine lifetimes of reincarnation, no matter what kind of family he is reborn in, he will be the last one left in the end.Watching the relatives around him leave one by one, leaving him alone to die alone, this feeling is more painful than killing him.

Tathagata said: "You don't mention Jin Chanzi, I will talk to you today. Although he is not the disciple who has been with me for the longest time, he is the most sensible of all my disciples. No matter what happens He won't complain to me, and he won't think about asking me to help him."

The seniority is orderly, the superiority and inferiority are distinct.Although Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all beings, within Buddhism there are also distinctions between big and small.For example, if you worship under the Great Buddha School, you must have more confidence in speaking than the disciples under the Little Buddha School.And the disciples who worship under Tathagata should speak with the most confidence, and Tathagata is also known as a calf protector.

Jin Chanzi has followed him for 9000 years, and has gone through countless hardships in the past 9000 years.But he never made any request to the Tathagata, and his treatment was even worse than that of a disciple of a small Buddha.Although he has the right to handle all affairs in Daleiyin Temple, every time the Buddha goes out, he will hand over the right to a more capable brother.

Tathagata said: "Guanyin, go down to the lower realms to look for Jin Chanzi. Tell him about it, just say it's my intention. Although I don't force him to accept this task in principle, I still hope that he can be cautious. Think about it. After all, he has experienced the reincarnation of the ninth life, and if he cannot ascend in the tenth life, he will never be reincarnated."

Master Avalokitesvara nodded slightly, and Buddha Maitreya stepped forward and said, "Buddha, should we send someone to talk to Jin Chanzi first? Find a few people who have a good relationship with him, and let them first find out if Jin Chanzi is right. What do you think?"

Tathagata smiled and said, "Brother Maitreya, when did you become so cautious, could it be that you were once bitten by a golden cicada?"

Hearing this, all the Buddhas laughed out loud, and Maitreya Buddha couldn't even close his mouth.The Buddha really made the point. He was chased by two big dogs for a day and a night.I don't know where that kid Jin Chanzi got the magic dog, and he was able to chase him endlessly for a day and a night.

If Maitreya Buddha hadn't hid in the ritual vessel, I'm afraid the last favorite cassock would be scrapped.Those two dogs don't bite people, but they only bite clothes faster than scissors.As long as you dare to stand still, no matter how thick your clothes are, they will not be able to withstand their 1-minute battle.

Tathagata gradually put away his smile, and said in a deep voice: "I know that Jin Chanzi is being angry, but he is not an ignorant person. After experiencing nine reincarnations in the human world these years, he must have learned a lot. This matter It's up to him, and the others will die even if they can make it on the road."

Everyone present was shocked when they heard the words, and they had no doubts about the Tathagata's words.But according to Tathagata's explanation just now, doesn't it mean that this mission is a narrow escape.Those of you who are present here are not Buddhas who have cultivated for more than ten thousand years, and they cannot be said to have the same life span as the heavens and the earth, but there is almost nothing in the three realms that can destroy their bodies and spirits.

But the Buddha just said that other people will die halfway. It sounds like the risk factor of this mission has broken through the 4S level. Could it be the legendary 6S level mission?

But when everyone calms down, it will not be difficult to figure it out. This is a mission related to the survival of the Three Realms, and it is even more a mission to save the Three Realms from catastrophe.Wouldn't it be unreasonable if this couldn't meet the standard of a legendary mission.

There are also people who are trying to figure out the rewards after completing the mission. These people must be guys who have performed similar missions before.Although the tasks they performed were not difficult, they all received good rewards after completing the tasks.Rewards are determined according to task difficulty and risk factor.

Of course, the final reward for completing the task is not decided by someone.Instead, it was randomly generated by the supreme magic weapon of the Buddhist world. It seems that someone received a broom after completing the task a few years ago.At first, I was so angry with him, but later I found out that the broom was a flying weapon.

If you see a guy flying around on a broom one day, please don't panic, because that guy has performed missions in the Buddhist world.

Avalokitesvara immediately set off for Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty. Before leaving, the Buddha gave her thousands of instructions.The main reason for letting Master Guanyin go is that she has a good relationship with Jin Chanzi.Jin Chanzi keeps calling her sister Guanyin, and Guanyin always treats Jin Chanzi as her younger brother.

In the entire Daleiyin Temple, Master Guanyin is the only one who can lose his temper with Jin Chanzi.In the whole Lingshan, except for the Buddha Jin Chanzi, he only listened to the words of Guanyin sister.She would not laugh at Jin Chanzi, let alone make a small report in front of the Buddha, and would help Jin Chanzi sew clothes, cook porridge and decoct medicine.

Once someone hurts him, he doesn't need to hold grudges, but if someone treats him well, he will remember two points.This is what makes Jin Chanzi the most different. Although he has a bad temper, he is the most reasonable and polite person.

After accepting the errand arranged by the Buddha, Master Guanyin was also a little apprehensive.She once went to the human world to see Jin Chanzi. At that time, Jin Chanzi had just experienced the third life.She persuaded Jin Chanzi to return to Lingshan, and finally Jin Chanzi shook his head at her.If she was allowed to choose by herself, then she would definitely support Jin Chanzi's decision.

Is it really good to live a carefree life without sadness or joy?
Maybe all the immortals and Buddhas think so, but Jin Chanzi doesn't think so.So thinking of this, Guanyin is somewhat sure that he can persuade Jin Chanzi to take up this mission.
