Chapter 141: The Buddha lifts the butcher's knife and learns the scriptures from the West. (Revised)
Three thousand red dust realms, ten thousand Buddhas and heaven and earth.
On the hill, a monk, an eagle, and a dove are three different creatures, interpreting the legend of the Buddha.
"Wait......" Su Bai's indifferent words interrupted Shakyamuni's move of preparing to cut the meat scale.
"You don't have to open your mouth to persuade the poor monk, the poor monk will exchange his own flesh for the pigeon's meat, so that you will not starve to death, but also ask for the pigeon's life, the best of both worlds. Shakyamuni recited the words of the Buddha with a compassionate expression.
"Monk, where did you see that I was trying to persuade you?" Su Bai glanced at Shakyamuni with slanted eagle eyes, and let out a hint of mockery: "You are too delusional, think too much!"
"Since you're not trying to persuade the poor monk, then why are you calling the poor monk?" Shakyamuni held a short knife in his hand, staring at Su Bai who had turned into an eagle, and his deep eyes were filled with a strange color.
"The reason why I called you is to ask you to stay away from me, don't splash my blood!" Su Bai gently stretched his shiny wings, and said in an indifferent tone: "As long as you are far enough away from me, even if you cut yourself to death, I won't care about you, but I will eat this pigeon today!"
"The poor monk exchanged his own flesh for the meat of this pigeon, why didn't you let it go?" Shakyamuni looked deeply at Su Bai in front of him, and said sadly: "You not only want my meat, but also want the meat of the pigeon, are you so greedy?"
"Greedy, what you say is so funny, hehe......" Su Bai squinted at Shakyamuni and said disdainfully: "Do you have anything to do with me cutting meat here?"
"Aren't you hungry? I'll cut the meat for you, just to save the pigeon's life." Shakyamuni's expression showed compassion.
"Huh...... Do I have to eat your meat if you cut it? I look at your meat crookedly, I don't eat the good pigeon meat, I have to eat your monk's meat?" Su Bai shook his eagle head slightly, and a sneer came out of his mouth: "You want to impose your thoughts on me to fulfill your compassion." ”
"But why should I accept your thoughts, and what right do you have to influence my thoughts?!"
"You Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, if you don't appear, this pigeon and I will follow the law of the jungle, even if it is eaten by me, this is its fate, it is the cause and effect between me and it, but you appear, this is the cause and effect between you, me, and it. ”
"Don't say anything about the false words of compassion that 'I don't go to hell, who will go to hell', I don't care at all if you go to hell or not, and now I'm hungry, I'm going to eat pigeon meat! If you save it, I'll starve to death because of your presence, and you won't let me eat this pigeon?"
Shakyamuni's brows were furrowed, his originally compassionate face became a little ugly, and he didn't know how to choose between two lives.
If he chooses to let Su Bai eat the pigeon, then he Shakyamuni will not save him when he sees death, and he will be merciful in vain.
If he chooses not to let Su Bai eat the pigeon, then Su Bai dies because of him Shakyamuni, this death is caused by him, if he does not appear, Su Bai will not die, he indirectly commits the precept of killing.
"I don't go to hell, who goes to hell, since you don't listen to the thoughts of the poor monk, you have to slaughter this pigeon, then even if the poor monk is guilty of karma, you must subdue demons and eliminate demons, and destroy your evil animal!" Shakyamuni recited the Buddha's words, with a righteous and awe-inspiring and compassionate face, waved the short knife in his hand, and slashed at Su Bai.
Su Bai looked coldly at the short knife that was slashing at him, and did not dodge or dodge, "Poof!" Blood splattered, and the eagle's head fell.
"Wow. A flash of white light flickered out from the eagle's skull, turning into the appearance of Su Bai's main body.
"Haha......" Su Bai looked at Shakyamuni who was splashed with blood, his eyes like the sun and the moon flashed with sarcasm, and he laughed loudly: "Jizo, your Buddha is really merciful! What a Buddha heart to subdue demons and eliminate demons......!"
Su Bai walked into the distance with his hands behind his back, leaving behind bursts of ridicule.
When Su Bai's figure completely disappeared on this hill, "Huh." With a flash of golden light, Jizo Bodhisattva appeared from nothingness, he looked at the direction where Su Bai had gone, with a sad face, and sighed lightly: "Why did he have such an amazing act......
Although the appearance of all beings here is an illusory scene, it is indeed what really happened in the past, just the scene of Shakyamuni cutting meat and feeding the eagle, if the eagle is really as Su Bai showed, Shakyamuni will really punish the eagle, the Buddha divides good and evil, since it can't be measured, then it will subdue the demon and subdue the demon.
......
Time flies, the years are uncertain, Su Bai left the hill where Shakyamuni became a Buddha, and walked in this world of living beings.
Su Bai has experienced wonderful scenes, which have occurred from ancient times to modern times, and each scene is praising the Buddha's compassion and selflessness, and benefiting all sentient beings.
In this regard, Su Bai felt nothing in his heart, but just blended into these scenes again and again to comprehend all things in the world.
Although Su Bai does not believe in Buddhism, and even has an inexplicable dislike for Buddha, it does not prevent Su Bai from comprehending some things that belong to him through the appearance of sentient beings, which is a feast for Su Bai to practice, an opportunity to understand Buddhism, and a trial of refining the heart in the red dust.
At this time, Su Bai came to a place called Dongtu Datang in the ancient era.
Here, Su Bai saw the scene of Shakyamuni's second disciple Jin Chanzi, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng and a white dragon horse going to the west to learn scriptures.
Su Bai stood in the middle of the scene with his hands in his hands, looking at the experience of the five masters and apprentices of the golden cicada, and at the same time he was full of emotion in his heart, but he also doubted the authenticity of these scenes.
A monkey named Sun Wukong only practiced with the Bodhi Ancestor for more than ten years, and he turned the immortal world ruled by the immortal clan upside down, and even the Jade Emperor lay under the table and cried and begged Shaktamuni for help.
However, such a powerful monkey was first slapped by Shakyamuni at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, and then controlled by a small mantra from Guanyin Bodhisattva, asking him to accompany the golden cicada to learn scriptures, and he had to go! Although he was shouting about the Monkey King, he was just a thug who was ambushed by Buddhism.
Moreover, whether it is Tang Sanzang, who is reincarnated as a golden cicada, or the scene of Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng, Bailongma and others, they are deliberately emphasizing the supremacy of Buddhism.
If these scenes are true, then the Buddhism of the primeval era is too strong and prosperous, and the immortal clan is too weak.
Just when Su Bai was feeling the truth, suddenly Su Bai frowned slightly, looked not far away, his eyes as bright as the sun and the moon flashed a trace of indifference, and said calmly: "Jizo, after following me for so long, can't you come out?"
