Chapter 146: Taiyi is born

At dawn the next day, the four masters and apprentices continued on their way.

encountered a group of robbers on the way, all of whom were taken down by Sun Wukong and handed over to the government.

After that, the road was calm, and the Tang monks and apprentices never encountered any demons and ghosts.

Coming to the foot of Lingshan, the Jinding Immortal of Yuzhenguan came to greet the four Tang Seng with a smile on his face, this Jinding Immortal is also a character with a backer, and the backer is very hard, otherwise he would not have cultivated a Taoist temple under the Lingshan Sect, and the errand to greet the four Tang Seng would not fall into the hands of him, a Taoist.

The sage personally lowered the doppelganger to lead the four Tang monks, giving the Tang monks and apprentices great glory, and the Tang monks and apprentices took off the mortal fetus in the rebirth river, turned into immortal fetuses, fairy bones, and washed away the red dust and miscellaneous thoughts.

The four Tang monks burst into tears, and excitedly followed the four King Kongs into the Great Lei Yin Temple, and saw the Buddha, who encouraged the four of them.

Tang Seng sincerely bowed to the ground and asked the Buddha to give him the scriptures, such as to let the disciple Ananda Kaye take the Tang monks and apprentices to the Tibetan scripture library to get the scriptures.

There are three Tibetan scriptures: there is a collection of "Fa" and a collection of talking about the sky, there is a collection of "Treatises" and a collection of talking about the earth, and there is a collection of "Sutras" to save ghosts. There are 35 books in total, and the 15,144 volumes are the path of cultivation and the door of righteousness.

When he arrived at the Tibetan scripture library, Ananda Kaye selected the scriptures, but he did not give them to Tang Seng, but asked Tang Seng to ask for personnel, which is the so-called gift, Tang Seng did not have any personnel to send, Ananda Kaye still gave them scriptures, but they were all blank, this is the so-called etiquette exchange, Tang Seng does not give personnel, and the Da Lei Yin Temple cannot give Tang Seng scriptures in vain.

Halfway up, Rulai asked Venerable Baixiong to seize Tang Seng's blank scriptures, and took the opportunity to let Tang Seng find that the scriptures were blank, and Tang Seng's master and apprentice had to go back to Da Lei Yin Temple to meet Rulai, and Sun Wukong looked for Rulai theory.

As the saying goes: The law cannot be passed on lightly, and the scriptures cannot be given away in vain, so that it seems that my sand door is precious.

Then let Ananda Kaye take Tang Seng to get the true scriptures, this time Ananda Kaye asked Tang Seng again for personnel, Tang Seng gave them the purple gold bowl given to him by Tang King Li Shimin, and then obtained the true scriptures.

He has obtained 400 volumes of the Nirvana Sutra, 360 volumes of the Bodhisattva Sutra, 20 volumes of the Void Sutra, 30 volumes of the Shoulenyan Sutra, 40 volumes of the Great Collection of Kindness Sutras, 40 volumes of the Sutra of Decisions, 20 volumes of the Treasure Sutra, 81 volumes of the Huayan Sutra, 30 volumes of the Sutra of Rites and Truths, 600 volumes of the Great Prajna Sutra, 50 volumes of the Sutra of the Golden Light, 550 volumes of the Sutra of the Void, 30 volumes of the Sutra of Vima, 42 volumes of the Sutra of the Three Treatises, 1 volume of the Diamond Sutra, 20 volumes of the Sutra of the Positive Being, One hundred and sixteen volumes of the Sutra of the Buddha's Practice, twenty volumes of the Sutra of the Five Dragons, sixty volumes of the Sutra of the Bodhisattva Precepts, thirty volumes of the Sutra of the Great Collection, one hundred and forty volumes of the Sutra of Madha, ten volumes of the Lotus Sutra, thirty volumes of the Yoga Sutra, one hundred and seventy volumes of the Bao Chang Sutra, thirty volumes of the Sutra of the Western Heavens, one hundred and ten volumes of the Sutra of the Sangha, one thousand six hundred and thirty-eight volumes of the Miscellaneous Sutras of the Buddha, fifty volumes of the Sutra of the Beginning of Faith, ninety volumes of the Sutra of Great Wisdom, one hundred and forty volumes of the Baowei Sutra, fifty-six volumes of the Sutra of the Pavilion, ten volumes of the Sutra of the Orthodox Vinaya, The Great Peacock Sutra has 14 volumes, the Sutra of Dimensional Consciousness has 10 volumes, and the Sutra of Gusha has 10 volumes.

Five thousand and forty-eight volumes of scriptures were obtained.

The four King Kong cast a spell again, sent Tang Seng and his apprentice a ride, directly to the west bank of the Tongtian River, where he met the old turtle who carried Tang Seng and his apprentices across the river, it took the initiative to carry Tang Seng across the river again, and asked Tang Seng in the middle of the river when he asked him to ask the Buddha how much life it had, Tang Seng was already excited to find the north in the Great Lei Yin Temple, where do you remember this, the old turtle heard Tang Seng forgot to ask, and immediately threw the four masters and apprentices into the river in anger.

The box of scriptures also fell into the Tongtian River, and Sun Wukong used means to rescue Tang Seng and others, but the scriptures were all soaked and dried in Chenjia Village for a day.

At this time, Duobao Rulai of Da Lei Yin Temple smiled and said: "In this way, it is difficult to make up ninety-nine eighty-one, which is in line with my ninety-nine return to the truth." ”

ushered in the voice of "Amitabha" from all the Buddhas below.

After that, Buddhism King Kong once again drove the incense wind to send the four Tang monks and apprentices to the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Tang monk and apprentice with the scriptures all the way back to Chang'an, Li Shimin, who got the news early, personally welcomed the Tang monks and apprentices back in Chang'an City ten miles away, and returned to the Jinluan Palace, Tang Seng handed over the customs clearance documents together with the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures to Li Shimin, Li Shimin looked at the customs clearance documents covered with dozens of national seals, his heart was full of excitement and emotion, and he turned over the scrolls of the true scriptures with the Buddha's light, and the trembling hands invisibly showed Li Shimin's mood at the moment.

Li Shimin thanked the Tang monk and apprentice in front of the civil and military officials, and the civil and military officials also bowed to the Tang monk and the four together, and then Li Shimin and the civil and military officials feasted the four masters and apprentices.

After the banquet, Li Shimin asked people to copy the Mahayana scriptures and send them to the world's monasteries to copy.

A large number of merits appeared in the sky above Chang'an City, forming a huge cloud of merits, there are four layers of merit directly to the Great Lei Yin Temple, three layers of merit flew to the Tang monk and apprentice four, the three layers of merit turned into hundreds of copies fell into the white dragon horse and the flood wilderness everywhere, by those living demons, and the immortal Buddha who helped the Tang monk and apprentice on the way to the west.

The three-layer merit that fell to the four Tang monks and apprentices had not yet entered the bodies of the four masters and apprentices, so they changed their route halfway, flew to the Sun Star, and fell into the hands of Xia Bing's fire god clone.

According to the original script, after the Tang monks and apprentices delivered the scriptures to the east soil, they should return to the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple and accept the canonization of the Buddha, which is called the so-called achievement of the positive fruit.

But now Tang Seng and his apprentices have long been refined into puppets by Xia Bing, and all the merits and luck on their bodies are counted on Xia Bing's head, because Xia Bing's rune primordial god returned to the Yuguang Realm at the moment of merit, so all the merits and deeds of the desolate world fell on the head of the fire god clone who was pretending to be the Eastern Emperor Taiyi in the Sun Star.

And the luck that originally belonged to Buddhism was also divided into two, Buddhism only got forty percent of the luck, and sixty percent of the luck fell on the head of the "East Emperor Taiyi" on the sun star.

The Buddhism Gate that was robbed of merit and luck by Xia Bing can no longer be prosperous, at most it will be a little prosperous.

When the many Buddhas in the Great Leiyin Temple and the Zhun Ti in the chaos saw this scene, their faces were so wonderful and wonderful.

"How is it possible! How could the luck and merit of my Buddhism fall into the hands of the 'Eastern Emperor Taiyi'!" Zhun Ti roared angrily.

The guide had a sad face, and before he could speak, he spurted a mouthful of blood, and said with a pale face: "Donghuang Taiyi is really calculating, it turns out that he has long controlled Tang Seng and his apprentices, and it was in vain that we tried our best, but we made a wedding dress for him." ”

"Hateful, hateful, senior brother, we have been planning for thousands of years, should we let the 'Eastern Emperor Taiyi' pick the fruit?"

Then he wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and said with a wry smile: "This Donghuang Taiyi didn't take us in his eyes at all, he was provoking Tiandao, Tiandao stipulated that my Buddhism should be prosperous, and now Buddhism can't be prosperous, just slap Tiandao's face, and let Tiandao and Hongjun deal with Taiyi, we can't help him." ”

Zhun Ti nodded: "It seems that if the Eastern Emperor Taiyi really comes out of the Sun Star, the demon clan will definitely prosper again!"

Then he said: "He hasn't come out yet, luck and merit have fallen on his head, not on the head of the demon clan, let Duobao send bhikshus and arhats to the east to preach the Dharma, gather luck for my Buddhism, and let my Buddhism prosper before the Eastern Emperor Taiyi breaks the seal." ”

Zhun Ti nodded and said, "That's all it can be." ”

At this time, Hongjun and the other four saints in Zixiao Palace were also surprised, especially Hongjun, first surprised, and then gloomy, he calculated for a long time and did not calculate how the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" controlled the four Tang monks under the condition of being sealed by him, and snatched the merit and luck, for which he also specially appeared in the Sun Star, checked the seal, and confirmed that the seal was still intact, but the doubts in his heart were even greater.

In the ridicule of "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", he returned to Zixiao Palace in a gloomy manner, and began to communicate with Heaven and discuss countermeasures.

And the Tongtian Sect Master was very happy when he saw that he was being robbed, and his face was full of smiles while he was surprised by the means of "Donghuang Taiyi".

As for Taiqing Laozi, Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, and Nuwa were shocked, and they became more and more jealous of the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", and at the same time, they also had a bit of schadenfreude.

Especially Lao Tzu, he was even more sure of what happened in the Lotus Cave at the beginning, and even guessed that Donghuang Taiyi erased the memories of Zhu Bajie and Jinjiao, Yinjiao and others.

And the other powers in the flood who were paying attention to the westward journey of Buddhism were all stunned when they saw this unexpected scene, but they all knew that the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" was trapped in the sun star by Hongjun five hundred years ago.

Now the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" has used unknown means to control the people who take the scriptures and robbed them of the merits and luck of Buddhism, which makes them not surprised.

Bai Ze and Shang Yang of Beiju Luzhou have more and more reverence for the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", and the demon master Kunpeng said to the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" that he can break the seal of Hongjun, and there is no longer the slightest doubt.

Not only them, but other mixed Yuan powerhouses such as Zhen Yuanzi and Styx were in awe of the unpredictable methods of the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", and they no longer doubted whether he could leave the Sun Star.

And the Buddhas of the Buddha Gate, such as Duobao Rulai, Medicine Master Rulai, and Maitreya in the future, hated and feared the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, all of them looked at the sun and stars uncertainly, and were full of hatred for the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" to snatch the luck and merit of the Buddhism, but no one dared to go to the Sun Star to question each other, after all, it was the existence of daring to argue with Hongjun and Tiandao, especially five hundred years ago, they had seen each other's divine might, and they were full of powerlessness in the face of this ancient emperor.

Just when all the Buddhists, Arhats, and Bodhisattvas in the Da Lei Yin Temple were looking ugly, Duobao Rulai and others all received the divine message of the Zhun Ti sage, asking them not to pursue the matter anymore and immediately organize the spread of Buddhism to the east.

The treasures, pharmacists, Maitreya and others who received the transmission were both a little unwilling and relieved.

Unwilling, but because the sage decided not to provoke the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", nor did he pursue the matter of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi seizing the merits and luck of Buddhism, he was relieved, naturally because they didn't have to deal with the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi".

The four Tang monks did not return to Lingshan, but were included in the Yuguang Realm by Xia Bing.

Originally, the four Tang monks and apprentices and the white dragon horse would return to Lingshan to be enshrined, the Tang monk would restore the memory of the golden cicada and be named Tan Xiang Gong De Buddha, Sun Wukong would be named the Fighting Buddha, Zhu Bajie would be named the Pure Altar Messenger, the Sha Monk would be named the Golden Arhat, and the White Dragon Horse would be named the Eight Heavenly Dragon Guangli Bodhisattva.

Now there are no Tang monks and apprentices, but Buddhism has not missed the merits and luck of the white dragon horse, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, and it is still taken back to Lingshan and named the eight Tianlong Guangli Bodhisattva.
