Chapter 3 Motion
Thirty-three layers above the sky, Lao Jun stood in front of the gate of Tushi Palace, and the ancient well was lit not far away, and he once again returned to the dress of an old farmer.
"Amitabha, please forgive the poor monk for being rude. "Lighting the lamp, clasping your hands together, and chanting the Buddha's name lightly.
"It's okay, I can't imagine that the strength of the ancient Buddha has also improved, it seems that after so many years, the ancient Buddha has indeed learned from the Buddhist scriptures. Lao Jun smiled lightly and glanced at the Taoist robe on his body, and a corner was missing from the sleeve robe.
"Amitabha, the poor monk had no intention of doing anything with Lao Jun, but for the sake of my Buddhist future, I had the courage to ask Lao Jun for advice. "Lighting the lamp and twisting the Buddha beads in his hand, the robe on his body is missing three gold threads, and the Buddha beads in his hand are also two full of cracks, but they are not broken.
"Since this is the case, there will not be many ancient Buddhas left in the poor road, and the decision of the Heavenly Court is the imperial decree of the Jade Emperor, and it cannot be easily changed. I'm afraid that this matter will disappoint the ancient Buddha. Lao Jun unceremoniously gave the order to evict the guest.
Burning the lamp smiled bitterly, "In that case, the poor monk will also retire." If there is a dispute again in the future, I hope that Lao Jun will not forget the agreement of the past. Lighting the lamp folded his hands and saluted to the old gentleman.
The golden light flashed under his feet, and a golden avenue stretched for thousands of miles, and the lamp stepped on the avenue and went to the west sky.
Lao Jun looked at the lantern in the distance, and with a wave of dust, the figure disappeared in front of the gate of Tushi Palace.
Heavenly Court Yao Pond, the Jade Emperor is taking a walk here. Holding a handful of fish food in his hand, he looked at the golden carp tumbling in the Yao Pond, and threw out a handful of fish food in his hand.
The golden carp in the pond scrambled to jump out of the water to grab food, and the Jade Emperor looked at the golden carp in the water and fell into deep thought.
"Report, Your Majesty, Taishang Laojun asks to see you. At this time, the herald of Yao Chiwan walked in and knelt down.
"Xuan. The Jade Emperor came back to his senses, waved his hand lightly, and signaled to retreat.
Not long after, Lao Jun entered the Yao Pond, saw the Jade Emperor feeding the fish, and said, "Your Majesty is really good Yaxing." ”
The Jade Emperor spilled the last handful of fish food in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be sarcastic, Lao Jun." Now because of the issue of Xuanzang and the four of them being rewarded, all the immortals are talking about it, and I finally got out and fell clean. Shi Cai I noticed that Lao Jun's thirty-three layers of heaven were moving together, it was the West Heaven that went to Tushi Palace, right?"
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Lao Jun bent down and saluted, "It is the West Heaven that has come to my palace to ask for an explanation." ”
"Oh, it's surprising that the lamp is there in person. There is no one else here, those red tape, don't follow it, come, sit. The Jade Emperor walked to the pavilion next to the Yao Pond, sat down, and motioned for Lao Jun to sit down.
"Your Majesty Xie!" Lao Jun bowed again and sat down.
"I said Laojun, when can you get rid of these habits, if you hadn't led the gods to support me back then, how could there be the current Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court, those etiquettes can be there when you go to court, but here are just you and me, why should Laojun care about those etiquette things. The Jade Emperor looked at the old gentleman who was saluting step by step, and said helplessly.
"Your Majesty's words are wrong, Your Majesty is now the lord of the Heavenly Court, the co-lord of the Three Realms, how dare the old minister commit the following crimes? How dare he be proud of his achievements? Your Majesty was in accordance with the mandate of heaven back then, and the old ministers and the gods were just adding fuel to the fire. However, before His Majesty mentioned that the immortals were talking about the monkeys, His Majesty must not give in to the discussion of the immortals. Lighting the lamp this time, in fact, is to ask for advice, but its intention is to force the palace!"
"Well, since Lao Jun insists, I won't say anything. Lao Jun and the lantern did it?" the Jade Emperor changed the topic and asked.
Lao Jun nodded, "Randen came this time to discuss the way of the world with Lao Chen, but in fact, he questioned my Heavenly Court Dao system, and he was even more dissatisfied with Lao Chen's troubles in Lingshan and his reputation as a Buddha." Without speculation, the old minister told him the real truth. ”
"Hehe," the Jade Emperor smiled, "and what the result?"
Lao Jun raised his sleeve robe, there was an imperceptible crack on it, and said: "Lao Chen fought with the burning lamp, causing the thirteen stars above the heavens and all worlds to fall, and his Buddhist King Kong hand tore a corner of the old minister's sleeve robe, and the old minister broke the three gold threads on his robe and broke two Buddhist beads in his hand. In this confrontation, the old minister was slightly superior. ”
"Haha, okay. With Lao Jun in Heavenly Court, I can sit back and relax. The Jade Emperor smiled, and then said, "This time, Lao Jun and Burning the Lamp started, the cooperation between my Heavenly Court and the Western Heavenly Buddha Gate was completely broken, and it was only when Lao Jun mentioned that I can't give in easily, then according to Lao Jun's words, my Heavenly Court will never make concessions in this matter!"
Hearing this, Lao Jun stood up, bent down and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!"
The Jade Emperor stood up, helped Lao Jun up, and said, "If there was no Lao Jun back then, how could there be a high dome today! ”
The Jade Emperor turned around, looked at the scene of Yao Chi, and continued.
"In the past, I lit a lamp and visited the heavenly court, wanting to preach in the four continents of the world. The matter of preaching, for the benefit of the people of the Three Realms, I nodded and agreed, Lao Jun, you are worried that Rulai and others will make ghosts, so make an agreement with Burning the Lamp, and the saint shall not interfere in the matter of learning scriptures. Later, if he came to my heavenly court and asked me to cooperate with the matter of learning scriptures from the West Heaven five hundred years later, I gave him this face. ”
The Jade Emperor was stunned and said with a smile, "Back then, that monkey disturbed my Heavenly Court Peach Festival and stole the Laojun Immortal Pill. If you come forward to protect the monkey, help Xuanzang learn the scriptures. Lao Jun, you are not allowed to directly intervene in this matter because of the agreement, and you can only act as you say. ”
Speaking of this, the Jade Emperor looked at Lao Jun, and Lao Jun smiled, "Your Majesty said this, Lao Chen can contribute to this monkey a lot, Samadhi True Fire helps him forge his body and achieve his fiery eyes." After this monkey came out, it made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and my Heavenly Court put down his face and asked Rulai to come forward to suppress the monkey, in order to learn from Xuanzang in the West five hundred years later?"
"In order for Xuanzang to reach the Western Heaven smoothly after five hundred years, and to prevent the monkey's unruly temperament from going bad, His Majesty exiled the canopy, and the two blinds went to help. Now that the study of the scriptures is over, it is ridiculous that I am dissatisfied with my heavenly court's recall of meritorious ministers!"
"Hehe, Lao Jun, don't be angry, since you act like this, then my Heavenly Court will not continue to give them face. ”
Speaking of this, the Jade Emperor smiled, and said loudly, "Taishang Laojun has decreed that all departments and divisions of the Heavenly Court will be sent to the Heavenly Court, and from now on, the relationship between my Heavenly Court and the Western Heaven will break down, and the Heavenly Court Heavenly Soldiers will enter a state of combat readiness, and send an order to the Emperor of Taishan Mansion to take over the Netherworld, and always pay attention to the King of the Difu and the Dizang King, if there is any change in the Western Heaven, my Heavenly Court will declare war immediately!"
"The old minister has the order!" Taishang Laojun saluted and received the order, "Your Majesty, the old minister will retire first." ”
The Jade Emperor nodded, and Lao Jun silently took two steps back and walked out of the pavilion. Then he walked out of Yaochi and immediately began to convey the Jade Emperor's decree to all the ministries and divisions of the Heavenly Court.
"It seems that Poor Dao has to make some preparations early. Lao Jun looked at the busy herald. The figure flashed, and then disappeared without a trace.
Inside the Yao Pond, the Jade Emperor stared at the golden carp in the Yao Pond. If you want to unload the mill and kill the donkey, my heavenly court will follow!
West Tianling Mountain, in the Great Lei Yin Temple, if you come to dismiss the Arhats, the Bodhisattva goes to repair the Ling Mountain. Most of the destroyed buildings in Lingshan were gradually rebuilt under the great power of the Arhats and Bodhisattvas.
Only the Lingshan Sutra Forest is the most difficult to repair, the Lingshan Sutra Forest is the Buddha's experience of comprehending the Buddhist scriptures, each Sutra Tablet is where the Buddha's hard work is, the Forest of the Sutra is destroyed, for the West Heaven, it is really a great loss.
Rulai sat on the lotus platform in the Great Lei Yin Temple, and a volume of Buddhist scriptures was spread out in front of him. There are countless scriptures around him, like tadpole-like scriptures around Rulai, under the blessing of the Great Lei Yin Temple, the sound of the Buddha gradually rises, such as the chanting of three thousand gods and Buddhas, the momentum is huge, everywhere in the spiritual mountain, all the sound of the Buddhist scriptures are heard.
Outside the Great Leiyin Temple, Guanyin climbs the steps. Guanyin was originally in the South China Sea, and when he heard that Laojun was making trouble in Lingshan, he didn't come. And today, Guanyin suddenly came to Lingshan, for some reason.
Outside the gate of Da Lei Yin Temple, Guanyin listened to the sound of the Buddhist scriptures and said: "Disciple Nanhai Guanyin asks to see my Buddha Rulai." !”
Squeak - the temple door of the Great Lei Yin Temple opened, and Guanyin stepped in. If you open your eyes, the scriptures around you are like swimming fish returning to the scriptures in front of you, and the sound of Buddha in the sky has also dissipated.
"Why is Kannon asking to see this seat?" asked Rulai.
"Amitabha, the disciple heard that the Heavenly Court Taishang Laojun made a big disturbance in my Lingshan Holy Land, so he came to greet him. Guanyin said respectfully, "The disciple has recently been confused about the Buddhist scriptures, and I have come to Lingshan to ask my Buddha to guide the maze." ”
"Lao Jun's trouble with Lingshan has been properly handled by the ancient Buddha. There is no need to worry too much about Kannon wrestlers. But my West Heavenly Scripture stele forest was destroyed, and I hope that Guanyin Lux will help more when the stele forest is rebuilt. "Since Guanyin Lux is confused, you might as well talk about it." ”
"The disciple received the order. Guanyin clasped his hands together, "As the saying goes, my Buddha is compassionate, and the disciples are confused about learning scriptures, since Xuanzang has all achieved positive results, and Xuanzang has also been canonized as a Zen merit Buddha, why does my Buddha have to insist on planning back then?"
"It is not my sole decision to learn from the scriptures. I have already discussed this matter with the Ancient Buddha, and the Ancient Buddha has no objection to this. And the study of scriptures is related to the Buddhas of our Buddhism, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Rulai said in a loud voice.
"Amitabha, the four Buddhas of Chan Zen merit and merit are studying for the suffering of all sentient beings in the world, and for the sentient beings in the world who are poisoned by greed, hatred, and ignorance, why can't my Buddha seek other ways for the Buddhas?"
"Amitabha, Guanyin Lux, in the past few hundred years, this seat has sought the method of immortality for the Buddhas of our Buddhism countless times, but in the end they have all failed. Now the hopes of all sentient beings in my Buddhism are in the Buddha of Chan Zen Merit, and I am also thinking about the Buddhas of the Western Heavens. ”
"The people of the world are not as good as the sentient beings of my Buddhism? Heavenly Court acquiesces to my Buddha to preach to the four continents and save the suffering. On the way to learn the scriptures, the heavenly court also tried its best to help, why is it that now the merits are complete, but my Buddha does not hesitate to make evil to the heavenly court because of the edict, which has led to the rapid deterioration of the relationship between my Buddha and the heavenly court!" Guanyin said, "Is this my Buddha's so-called consideration for the Buddhas of the Western Heavens?"
"Guanyin Lux, are you questioning the decision of this seat?" asked Rulai in a loud voice with a slight anger.
"The disciple didn't dare, the disciple was just stating the existing facts. The original intention of my Buddhism is to save the world and save suffering, so there is a proverb that I will not go to hell and who will go to hell. But now my Buddha has deviated from his original intention, and for the sake of the Buddhist sentient beings, he has abandoned the suffering sentient beings in the world!" Guanyin paused, and then, a question resounded throughout the Lingshan.
"Disciple dare to ask me Buddha, who is the current Buddha, and what world is being saved?"
Tianque Emperor Tiandi has a history of 130 million and 500 years, in the holy land of the West Heavenly Spirit Mountain, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked the West Heaven Rulai Buddha Gate who is the Buddha, what world to save, such as a rage to expel Guanyin from the Ling Mountain!
All the ministries and divisions of the Heavenly Court have entered a state of combat readiness, and the heralds have taken turns day and night, waiting for the order, and the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals have gathered to prepare for war; the human world, the land, and the mountain gods have gathered to wait for the decree of the Heavenly Court; in the underworld, the king of Taishan Mansion has taken over the Netherworld, announced that the Netherworld has entered a state of alert, and gathered the ten major Yin Marshals and ghost kings, etc., to guard against the supreme ruler of the underworld, the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth.
For a while, the relationship between Heavenly Court and Western Heaven deteriorated rapidly, and the atmosphere in the Three Realms was tense to the extreme. The war between Heavenly Court and Western Heaven is about to break out!
