Chapter 193: The Great Sage Accepts Disciples
The suppression of Heavenly Court's army can be said to have aroused Kunlun's anger in an instant. Although Kunlun has a certain subordinate relationship with Heavenly Court, he has also helped Heavenly Court do some things in the past. For example, sending a small number of warriors or helping the Heavenly Court find something on Earth that they need. But all this is within the capacity of Kunlun to afford.
After all, Heavenly Court and Kunlun are still involved a lot, and the earliest martial arts of Kunlun were born out of Heavenly Court. Therefore, Kunlun has always respected Heavenly Court, and as long as the requirements are not excessive, they will generally be satisfied.
But this time, Heavenly Court's request was too much, and it actually asked Kunlun to send 8,000 disciples to the Heavenly Army. Moreover, according to the news of the return of the Monkey King Hall, most of these disciples who went to Heavenly Court will not return by then.
Because the war with Asgard was tight, they came up with this strategy to find Kunlun to produce cannon fodder. Although Kunlun has nothing to do with the pirate warriors who believe in Asgard on the Nordic side, Sun Wukong has heard from the Supreme Mage that Asgard is a group of martial arts maniacs. Especially Odin, the leader of Asgard, this raging lightning god can fight many god-king coalition forces alone.
In the face of this kind of army led by a strong man, it is difficult to say whether Heavenly Court can win this conflict caused by face, but Sun Wukong and the people of Kunlun can be sure that the Kunlun disciples who went to join the army must have gone and never returned. Kunlun naturally can't agree to this matter, who can send him to death in vain?
Although it is indeed a bit too much to say that Sun Wukong beat the Heavenly Court Envoy twice before and after, it is understandable from various perspectives. Who can watch his companions die?
And now, in order to regain the face he lost here in Kunlun, Heavenly Court actually sent 10,000 heavenly soldiers to besiege Kunlun in the future. Originally, there were still people in Kunlun discussing whether Sun Wukong was going to Heaven to apologize or something. But as soon as the siege of Kunlun came this time, Kunlun was instantly blown up.
The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals of the Heavenly Court take themselves too seriously. Although it is said that Heavenly Court is kind to Kunlun, this kindness is not worth burying so many people in the entire Kunlun together. Besides, over the years, Kunlun has also done a lot of things for Heavenly Court. Now the relationship between the two sides is not a blind request from Kunlun, but a mutual benefit between the two sides. But Heavenly Court is still thinking about a thousand years ago, feeling that Kunlun is a dog in his captivity, and he will kill if he wants to fight.
Kunlun is the same enemy, although it is said that the cause of the incident is Sun Wukong. But behind this incident is actually a reflection of the dignity of the entire Kunlun. Sometimes the weight of life is not as important as dignity! Some people can live on their knees, but some people would rather die standing up!
Therefore, Kunlun refused to hand over Sun Wukong, and Kunlun issued a summoning order to gather all the Kunlun disciples outside. Prepare to fight with Heavenly Court to break the net. This incident had a great impact, and in the end, not only the Kunlun disciples responded, but also many Kunlun peripheral disciples who had received Kunlun's favor also rushed to the scene. At the next time in Kunlun Mountain, tens of thousands of warriors actually gathered.
The war between man and god is about to break out. And at this time, Sun Wukong, who was originally in the center of the storm, suddenly stood up and said that he was willing to surrender.
Because Sun Wukong knows very well that if a war really starts, then Kunlun's side will be miserable. How many people will survive in the end? So even if the unruly Monkey King is unruly, he must choose to bow his head appropriately at this time. Not to bow to the heavenly court, but to Kunlun and those unyielding warriors who had raised him for decades.
Heavenly Court was complacent, and felt that this time the face was going to come back. grabbed Sun Wukong and returned to Heaven, ready to be executed. But this is when the unexpected happened. Do you really think that Sun Wukong is a master who can be quiet and obedient?
He was just worried that if he fought in Kunlun, he would hurt the innocent too much, and he was not afraid of anything on the territory of Heavenly Court. Killing one by yourself is not a loss, and killing two is considered a gain. Death? Sun Wukong is not afraid!
So when Sun Wukong was sacrificed in the Lingxiao Palace, he suddenly broke free from the prohibition and began the most vigorous battle in his life.
Do you think there is anyone who can be high, do you think there is anyone who is born extraordinary? Today I want you to open your dog's eyes. I want to trample the high one under my feet, and I want to beat the naturally extraordinary one to call me Grandpa Sun!
From Dongtianmen to Nantianmen, from Yaochi to Penglai. Sun Wukong turned the entire Heavenly Kingdom upside down. Because he is not just a martial artist, and his spells are also very good. This fight made the entire Heavenly Court transparent. From south to north and from east to west, Sun Wukong is also a smart person, and he fought guerrilla warfare from the beginning. If there are many people, run away, anyway, Heavenly Court is so big. They like to build so many luxurious palaces, it is still very easy to hide a monkey.
When he encountered a small number of people, Sun Wukong came out to fight. This hiding, dodging and fighting, I don't know how many people in the heavenly court have suffered. Taishang Laojun's alchemy room was stolen, he ate all the things he could eat, and threw all the things he couldn't eat into the Tianshui River to feed Wang Ba.
The fairy peach tree plucked all the peaches by himself, and distributed all the excess to the fairy musicians and the dancing girls except for his own food. The Four Heavenly Gates were altered by him, and he sprinkled his own monkey birds in the wine of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.
Nezha was overturned, and there were only two of the Four Heavenly Kings left, and the Heavenly King of Tota went to arrest him, but the magic weapon was almost completely shattered, and his beard and eyebrows were also burned out. The Heavenly Soldiers were even more seriously damaged. As a result, in order to catch a Monkey King, Heavenly Court lost more than Asgard continued to harden steel.
Yang Jian, known as the first god of war in Heavenly Court, also dispatched, but the monkey was not caught. The divine beast Xiaotian Dog raised by himself was directly stewed in a pot of hot pot by Sun Wukong and eaten, and the fragrance wafted in the heavenly court for ten days. Sun Wukong became stronger and stronger the more he fought, and his ability became more and more proficient. And in the continuous battle with the Heavenly Court, they have mastered and learned their fighting methods and skills.
In the end, the carpet investigation finally forced Sun Wukong to Lingxiao Palace. As a result, Sun Wukong almost demolished the Lingxiao Palace.
In the end, there was no way, and Heavenly Court turned to its ally Western Paradise for help to see if they had any way to catch this monkey. As a result, the Buddha was not invited, and only Jizo came. But that's enough, because the power of Jizo is not below the Buddha according to legend. He can also open up a glass treasure tree kingdom on his own. It can be said that it is very powerful. As a result, Jizo didn't come to help catch the Monkey King, but to mediate.
It turned out that Master Xuanzang went to Tianzhu to ask for Buddhist scriptures, which made the Western Paradise very happy. Because Master Xuanzang developed the earthly kingdom of Buddhism from Tianzhu to the most powerful country at that time, the Tang Kingdom. As an ordinary person who completed this great cause, Master Xuanzang also received the courtesy of the Buddha.
"I'm not just spreading Buddhism, I'm just hoping that people in this world will be good. Buddhism is for use, and guiding people to goodness is what I know and think. People in the world are ignorant, only cultivating themselves and not others, when will the benevolence of the world be achieved. Only by allowing the world to threaten the world with profit and punish can people be willing to love others. Crossing others first and then crossing oneself, you must know that loving others is loving yourself. In this life, I don't seek fame in the world, I don't seek high-ranking officials, I just want everyone in this world to love. Buddhist scriptures and Buddhism are means. ”
As Master Xuanzang, he is qualified to say such things, even knowing that it is almost impossible to build a utopian world in this world. But there are always [ignorant people] who move forward bravely, regardless of the times or beliefs. Although they are using different means, Master Xuanzang's ideals have never changed.
Isn't Master Xuanzang smart? No, he is a truly wise person. After interpreting the Tianzhu Sutras, he changed the anachronism among them, and changed the Hinayana Buddhism that only crossed himself to the Mahayana Buddhism that crossed people. And he entered and exited the palace to become a guest of the prince, but what he wanted in his life was not fame and fortune. It is just translating Buddhist scriptures and interpreting the Dharma, and persistently educating the world to love others and uphold kindness.
After learning about the predicament that his friend Sun Wukong is now encountering through various channels, he found the Jizo Bodhisattva he is most familiar with and admires. I hope that Jizo Bodhisattva can say something for Sun Wukong to go to heaven.
Jizo Bodhisattva made a grand wish [Hell is not empty, vow not to become a Buddha!] Even if he has been able to open the Glazed Treasure Tree Divine Kingdom by himself, he is still a Bodhisattva and not a Buddha. You must know that the Buddha cannot do it alone.
After hearing Master Xuanzang's request, Jizo Bodhisattva asked him, "Do you know how difficult it is to let the Paradise go to Heaven to tell the Monkey King about it?"
Master Xuanzang replied with a smile: "I am willing to exchange my life's merits and incense for the Bodhisattva to take this trip." ”
"Do you know that you have a body of incense in the world and a body of merit, and you can already become a Buddha on the spot? If you change it, you can only die of old age as a mortal. ”
"It is not my intention to become a Buddha, I just hope that there will be no more strife in the world, and everyone will love others. ”
Master Xuanzang exchanged his merits and all his incense for the Western Paradise. Jizo Bodhisattva is grateful for Xuanzang's great wish, especially as a mortal who wants to do this eternal and extraordinary thing. Whether it succeeds or fails, it is always respectable. Therefore, the Jizo Bodhisattva represents the three parties between the Paradise and the Heavenly Court and the Kunlun Monkey King.
In the end, under the mediation of Jizo Bodhisattva, a reconciliation was finally reached. The condition for reconciliation is that Sun Wukong is also the god of war on both the Promised Land and the Heavenly Court. Since then, Heavenly Court has never asked about Kunlun's affairs anymore, and no longer forces Kunlun to do anything they don't want to do.
Heavenly Court must be a high-ranking official to Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong reluctantly agreed after thinking that Kunlun and his friend Master Xuanzang would pay a meritorious service for themselves. The well water between the two sides is not the river water. What Heavenly Court wants is a face.
And Jizo Bodhisattva is actually wilted and wilted. He was a little disdainful of Heavenly Court's actions, so after he went back, he called out the name of Monkey King. And began to circulate in the Three Realms.
In order to maintain his face, Heavenly Court had to ask people to write a book "Journey to the West" to maintain his face, smearing the Monkey King in it as a monster with a sharp beak and cheeks, who only knows how to eat people and betrays his companions. As for Sun Wukong, who knew about this, he could only sneer, he didn't care anyway. Heavenly Court likes this kind of spiritual victory method, so let them get it. Don't stimulate the little heart of the Emperor of Heaven, he was suddenly angry when he slept at night.
However, God did not fulfill people's wishes, and Journey to the West, which smeared Sun Wukong, finally became the last thing that Heavenly Court wanted to see after continuous revisions.
And now, these three hundred Kunlun disciples who have heard the true legend of the Great Sage are still suffering, because they know that they must survive this time in their lives, otherwise they will regret it for the rest of their lives, because today the Great Sage is going to accept disciples!
