Chapter 179 Five Parties and Five Elders

heaven.

The Jade Emperor sits high on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, overlooking the gods.

Taibai Jinxing came out and reported: "Your Majesty, in the west outside of Kyushu, there is a big religion called Buddhism. There are three thousand Buddhas. It has a great momentum, but all the heavens and worlds are subject to the heavens and are under the jurisdiction of your majesty. This religion is newly established, but it has not been reported to my heavenly court, should I send someone to question it?"

"Where is Daozu? Please come here and ask Daozu what he thinks."

The Jade Emperor's expression was fixed, and he glanced at the place in front of the gods. There was one person missing there.

Tusita Palace.

A golden light flashed, and the Taishang Laojun appeared in the retreat.

A gleam flashed in his eyes, he got up and left the retreat, stepped on the auspicious clouds, and arrived at Lingxiao Palace in a short while.

As soon as Taibai Jinxing came out, he bumped into the coming Taishang Laojun, hurriedly greeted him, and said respectfully: "I have seen Daozu, Your Majesty is asking me to invite you."

Taishang Laojun nodded slightly and said: "I know it, follow me to see His Majesty."

Seeing the Taishang Laojun coming in with Taibai Jinxing, the Jade Emperor greeted him down the steps and said, "The Taoist ancestor is here."

The Taishang Laojun bowed and saluted and said: "The old Taoist has met His Majesty, and His Majesty can wait patiently, and we will know when we meet."

The other gods reported their affairs one after another. When everything was settled and the court was about to leave, someone announced that an old monk had come from the west and wanted to have an audience with the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor said solemnly, "Xuan."

After a while, a venerable who showed a strange Dharma appearance came in. He was tall, his head was covered with meat buns, and there was a red mole between his eyebrows. He was extremely dignified.

When he came to the Lingxiao Palace, he put away his magic and turned into the size of an ordinary person, but the meat bun on his head and the red mole between his eyebrows still remained.

"The Tathagata, an old Western Buddhist monk from outside the region, came to pay homage to the Great Heavenly God, and wished the Great Heavenly God a healthy body and a boundless life."

The Jade Emperor looked at Tathagata and said, "Western Buddhism? What's so strange about it, you can tell it slowly and let the gods see it."

Tathagata said: "Buddhism established by the old monk is divided into four classes of Tao and fruit. Those who have proved the supreme and correct enlightenment are Buddhas, and then there are Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Bhikkhunis. Today, there are three thousand Buddhas, which are exactly the appearance of being born in the world.

All the heavens and myriad worlds are governed by the Great Heavenly God and governed by the Heavenly Court. The Buddhism established by the old monk naturally respects the Great Heavenly God and is governed by the Heavenly Court.

The old monk came to pay homage to the Great Tianzun this time, hoping that the Great Tianzun would accept my Buddhist attachment and obey the instructions of the Great Tianzun in the future. "

The Jade Emperor looked at the Tathagata with a calm expression, and then at the Taishang Laojun and the gods with lowered brows, thinking for a long time.

"You have to know that although I am in charge of the Three Realms, I still have to listen to the opinions of all parties. The land of Kyushu is favored and protected by the heavens, and it is the center of the movement of the heavens. I cannot change the mystery of the movement of qi.

Now on the land of Kyushu, there are disputes between human beings, princes confront each other, dragon energy surges, and avenues collide. It is really fierce. I think the leader should have seen it.

But this is the decree of the way of heaven. Even if I admit that you were born in Buddhism and canonize you, if you want to promote Buddhism, it depends on your ability. I will not help you, nor will I interfere. "

Tathagata said: "What the Great Tianzun said is very true. The land of Kyushu is the center of the movement of heaven and energy, and the prehistoric and human world revolves around it. There are treasures, treasures, outstanding people, and capable people born in generations, which is beyond comparison in our barren land in the west.

It is difficult to gain the approval of the people of Kyushu, but the old monk will work hard, and he will definitely obey the order of the Great Heavenly Venerable. "

The Jade Emperor looked at the Taishang Laojun and said, "Daozu, how do you see the arrangement of the Buddhist gate?"

Taishang Laojun thought for a while and said: "There is only Tao. Tao is the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. It transforms into two appearances, which is the movement of Yin and Yang in the way of heaven. My two junior brothers and I monitor the movement of the way of heaven on behalf of teachers. It is the sign of the three lives and all things. .

Under it are the four emperors headed by His Majesty, and under it are the five elders. Now there are still two in the west and the south. "

When the Jade Emperor heard the words of the Taishang Laojun, he naturally understood its meaning. Although it was the post of the five party and five elders who was second only to the Siyu, he didn't care too much, because in the end it still depends on the fist and strength.

"Da Tianzun, Daozu, the old monk has one more request."

The Jade Emperor's face was displeased, but he still said patiently: "Buddha, please tell me."

Tathagata didn't seem to see the Jade Emperor's expression, and bowed his head and said: "The Venerable Avalokitesvara made a great wish to save all sentient beings with great compassion. If such a great wish can be recognized by the Great Heavenly Lord, it will help to appease all people in the world. To make people in the Three Realms less rebellious, can you ask the Great Heavenly Venerable to give Venerable Avalokitesvara a position? You can also follow the Great Heavenly Venerable at any time."

Seeing what the Tathagata said, the Jade Emperor showed a smile and said: "In this case, let's seal it together. The Taoist ancestor also said just now that the five elders of the five directions still lack the positions of the West and the South, so the Buddha was named the West." Lord Buddha, the Venerable Avalokiteshvara is the Avalokitesvara of the South China Sea."

Tathagata was slightly taken aback, but quickly thanked: "Old monk, thank you for your gift."

All the gods in the heaven showed a knowing smile, not to mention ordinary people, even the saints are still fighting for face, who under the saints can really see through the world?
The Jade Emperor canonized it like this, but also kept a hand, let it fight internally.

Tathagata just said that Buddhism is divided into four grades of Dao and fruit, and there is still a difference between Buddha and Bodhisattva, but the position of canonization, if you really want to talk about it, the position in the south is still higher than the west. Where do you let the face of the Buddha be placed? ?
As for how to fight, it was not the Jade Emperor's consideration.

After pondering for a while, the Jade Emperor said again: "Taibai Jinxing, go and tell the Immortal Jinding to follow the Buddha to the Western Lingshan, assist the Buddha in taking care of the Lingshan, and be responsible for communicating with my heavenly court."

Taibai Jinxing quickly agreed, and immediately left the Lingxiao Palace to preach the decree.

Let alone the gods, the Taishang Laojun and Tathagata were taken aback. They did not expect that the Jade Emperor would do this. This is equivalent to installing a radar in Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan to collect the movement of Lingshan at any time. to heaven.

It can be said that every move of Buddhism in the future will be monitored by the court of heaven. Once there is an act of arrogance, it will be known by the court of heaven and then used against Buddhism. , will never happen.

The Tathagata was slightly taken aback, and then thanked him: "Thank you, Great Heavenly Venerable, the old monk will return to Lingshan and arrange a residence for the Jinding Great Immortal."

The Jade Emperor said: "The Great Immortal Jinding is a master of surveying mountains and rivers. You can let him choose a place to practice. You don't have to be too polite."

When the court was over, the Jade Emperor called Taibai Jinxing and said: "The southeast coast of Kyushu is full of demons, and the people of Li are suffering. Go and find someone to reincarnate, and protect the safety of this sea area."

After Taibai Jinxing heard it, he suddenly realized, and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I understand that I will not let Your Majesty down."

Venus left the Heavenly Court, walked for a long time, and came to a big mountain. Before he could declare his family name, a graceful and luxurious woman walked out of it.

"Mom, you should know why the poor come here, would you like it?" Taibai Jinxing bowed to the woman.

The woman known as the old mother nodded slightly, and said: "The Jade Emperor has good means, but the poor Taoist should send someone there."

As soon as the old mother clapped her hands, a girl came out from the mountain. The girl worshiped the old mother and Taibai Jinxing, and followed Jinxing to the southeast.

"Cihang Taoist has become Avalokitesvara, in order to fight against the teaching forces, the Jade Emperor actually came to him on his own initiative and asked me to fight him, which is easy to calculate.

But my old mother in Lishan has to do it again, hoping to pass on the ancient way of cutting off the teaching, don't break the inheritance and live up to the teacher's expectations, I cut off the teaching... Sigh.

The Jade Emperor is really clever, as an emperor, he will not let go of power, but seek balance. As long as the balance is good, not only can he control the situation easily, but he is not afraid of the dominance of the family, but he does not know how long the Jade Emperor will be able to balance.

Once out of control, the Three Realms will be shattered, the sky will be shattered, and even the heavens will be destroyed. "

The woman who claims to be the old mother is none other than the Wudang Holy Mother who escaped from the Ten Thousand Immortal Formation. At this time, she lives in the ancient sacred mountain Li Mountain and incarnates as the Old Mother of Li Mountain.

Western Lingshan.

In a meditation room behind the Daleiyin Temple, the ancient Buddha on the lamp burns a smile.

There was a person standing beside him, seeing Ran Deng suddenly smiling, he asked strangely, "Buddha, why are you so happy?"

Ran Deng said: "My Buddhism has been recognized by the Heavenly Court. Not only did the Tathagata Buddha be named the Western Buddha, but also Guanyin was named Nanhai Guanyin. He is the same as the Buddha in the five directions and five elders, and his status is second only to the four emperors in the Heavenly Court.

In this way, it is much easier for me to spread Buddhism to the world. The Bodhisattva is named one of the five elders. Hehehe, the Jade Emperor is easy to calculate, but it is exactly what I want.

Huh?Da Tianzun is really not simple, he actually sent people to stay in Lingshan, so, he must be careful in the future.

Jinding Daxian?Who is this person?I have never heard of it before, could it be a great power that has existed since ancient times? "

After Ran Deng figured out the Jinding Daxian, he showed a strange look, because he had never heard of this person, and he didn't know who he was, but he always felt that this person was not simple and needed to be handled carefully.
