Chapter 48: The Mud Bodhisattva Crosses the River
In the bitter cold of winter, when the snow was falling, the eastern heavens declared war on the western heavens.
Tens of millions of demon generals, hundreds of millions of demon soldiers, under the leadership of the Monkey King and the White Bone Sage, pressed the many Buddhas of the Buddha Gate, sent troops to the West Heaven Gate, and set up camp.
They did not attack, and the Buddhas in the western heavens did not go out to meet the enemy, and between the confrontations between the two sides, the white bone spirit forcibly held Guanyin's hand and stood at the forefront of the continuous sea of clouds, looking at the western sky guarded by the transparent barrier.
"How do you feel when you are abandoned by the Buddhism that you have created and supported for countless eras?" asked the White Bone Spirit lightly.
"I don't feel anything, that's the most normal thing. Guanyin said indifferently: "Because you are an enemy, but also because you have a great appetite." ”
"Don't you feel betrayed at all?" said the White Bone Spirit, "Is such a Buddha still worth guarding for you?"
"What do you want to say?" Guanyin said in a deep voice.
"Join the East Heaven, and you will have a status no less than that in the West Heaven. Moreover, Dongtian's protection is famous all over the world, and there will never be a situation where he betrays his own people. ”
Guanyin said indifferently: "Don't be delusional. The West Heaven will give up on us because now that Rulai is in power. If I am in power, who will give up on me?"
The white bone spirit looked at him strangely: "Do you still want to return to the Western Heavens?"
"How long can you imprison me?" Guanyin smiled, but her temperament became more and more cold: "The avenue is alone, including relatives, lovers, and friends, no one can follow you inseparably, let alone me? As long as I am not by your side, it is not so difficult for me to escape." ”
The white bone spirit looked deep: "You and I have been entangled for thousands of years, how can it be regarded as a little love, you have to be an enemy?"
"Because I hate you for not dying!" Guanyin said coldly, "As long as I can kill you, it doesn't matter how much it costs me." I hate you as much as I do in the North Stygian Sea. ”
The white bone spirit rolled his eyes and said, "You look like little Lori, and your temper is still arrogant? Okay, don't talk about this." At that time, Rulai summoned all Buddhas to negotiate together, which attracted the hatred of all Buddhas and made a perfect plan for repaying the debt. Now let's do a little experiment and test the so-called Buddha mind. ”
"What do you want to do?" Guanyin narrowed her eyes.
The white bone spirit didn't reply, and beckoned to the military camp behind him: "Tuoba Yingxin, press all our prisoners over." ”
"Obey!" In the barracks, Tuoba responded with a heart, personally leading the demon god general, and pressing hundreds of thousands of Buddhist people with shackles and anklets to the front of the clouds.
"If you come, this saint will give you another chance, and immediately send out the ransom and indemnity, and I can let these disciples of yours go to the Western Heavens. The White Bone Spirit said loudly.
"I don't go to hell, who goes to hell, from the moment they set foot on the battlefield, they are ready to die. Don't try to use their lives to force us to submit. Rulai's voice resounded through the heavens and the earth, with a strong demagogic aura.
Among the captives of Buddhism, many monks who were not highly cultivated heard this, and their anxious expressions suddenly eased, and their eyes began to be calm, and they had a spirit of fearless life and death and sacrificing their lives for righteousness.
"It's still demagogic. Bai Gu snorted coldly, and his voice was like a morning bell in the evening, waking up those Buddhist disciples who had been transformed by a sentence: "Everyone, do you hear, this is the Buddha you believe in, in order to refuse to pay the ransom, I want you to die...... What the hell do you believe in?"
Hundreds of thousands of Buddhist disciples were silent, and their gaze towards the western sky became extremely unfamiliar.
"Push out all the guardian beasts and kill them. The White Bone Spirit said coldly.
Tuoba Yingxin received the order and organized 10,000 demon god generals, holding snow-white blades, to cut off tens of thousands of holy beast heads.
One after another, the divine souls flew out of the headless bones, and were shattered by Sen Ran's murderous aura, and they were wiped out.
"Next, there are 30,000 bhikshus. The white bone spirit waved his hand, and the demon god put the blade on the heads of the monks: "Buddhas of the Western Heavens, open your eyes and see if there are any relatives, friends, and disciples among these monks. If you can turn your face and deny people for the sake of profit, you can too?"
In the Western Heavens, the faces of many Buddhas changed, and they wanted to say something, but then they thought that they seemed to be responsible for this situation. Who made them not agree to compensate Dongtian at that time.
Without a stand, even if they feel very uncomfortable. I can only forcibly endure it, and it is inconvenient to speak.
"Kill it. "The Bone Spirits have always been ruthless in their attitude towards their enemies, treating human life as if they were a mustard.
......The blade flickered, forming a snow-white silver wave, and in just a few minutes, 30,000 monks died.
"Next, there's Rohan. The white bone spirit waved his hand, and seventy or eighty thousand Arhats were forced to kneel in front of the Western Heaven, with a steel knife set up above their necks, and the first to hit was the dragon and tiger who had a great reputation in the world.
"Buddhas in the Western Heavens, you can not care about the life and death of the guardian holy beast, you can not care about the life and death of the bhikshus, but what about the arhats, who else does not know the descending dragon and the Fuhu?" said the white bone spirit in a loud voice.
"Buddha. "In the western sky, someone finally couldn't stand it anymore and called softly.
There was a hint of compassion on his face, a hint of pity: "The Buddha's light will guide their souls to the other side." Ladies and gentlemen, this is a demonic ploy, and you must not be fooled. ”
"No matter what the plan is, we can't just watch the dragon and the tiger arhat die, there are too many people in the Western Heaven who have received their help. A Buddha spoke.
Rulai's gaze swept towards him, and his body suddenly turned cold, as if he was in prison: "Lingquan Buddha, are you planning to go out and rescue the two Arhats?"
Lingquan wanted to speak, but couldn't make any sound.
"Should I say that he really deserves to be a Buddha? The four major ones are empty, and even the feelings and righteousness have become empty. The Bone Spirit shook his head and said, "Kill it." ”
"Wait!" Just as the demon god generals raised their butcher knives high, about to cut off the heads of the Arhats, the dragon suddenly said in a loud voice.
"Stop!" The white bone spirit raised his palm and blocked the blades of the demon gods: "Dragon Descending Arhat, what do you want to say?"
"Bodhisattva, you personally brought us out of the Western Heavens, are you going to watch us die now?" said the descending dragon as he looked at Guanyin with a complicated gaze, clenched his fists.
Guanyin said lightly: "I, like you, am a prisoner of the order. The mud bodhisattva crosses the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, so what can he do to save you?"
