After all, Gu Ming opened a school hall along the way, accepted many disciples, and was canonized as a national teacher by several countries one after another......

In this way, his influence is already great enough that the gods in the sky can no longer be indifferent.

Therefore, this time Guanyin came, I am afraid that he will be ...... If you say something good, you will be tempted, and if you say something bad, you will be called a knock or a warning.

In this regard, Gu Ming did not panic.

After all, this time is different from the past, although he has not yet been upgraded, but his reputation, luck, strength, etc. have been greatly improved.

Of course, it doesn't mean that his current strength is enough to fight against the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas.

However, there is no reason for the other side to go to war with great fanfare.

The more great the god, the more we must pay attention to the rules and the rules of heaven.

Gu Ming didn't do anything hurtful, so he was naturally not afraid.

Feeling a coercion coming, Gu Ming was silent on the surface, but in fact, he had already mobilized his whole body to contend with it.

In terms of the strength of the two sides, Gu Ming could not be stronger than Guanyin at present.

According to the division of the strength of the heavenly realm, it goes without saying that Sanqing is high.

Then there are a number of ancient gods and saints, such as Lishan's mother, Nuwa Niangniang and so on.

However, it is rare to see the ancient gods and saints, and they rarely interfere in the affairs of heaven and the human world.

Next is the Buddha, the Emperor of Heaven, and then down are the Daluo Golden Immortal and the Taiyi Golden Immortal......

For the heavenly realm, the Taiyi Golden Immortal can be regarded as high and looking down on the immortals, after all, there are not many people who can reach the level of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

The heavenly immortals, most of them are ordinary immortals, and those who are like golden immortals can be regarded as masters.

Including Sun Wukong, the current realm is nothing more than Taiyi Golden Immortal.

It's just that because of his natural power, his strength is considered to be the top existence among the Taiyi Golden Immortals, and he even has the strength to fight with the Da Luo Golden Immortals.

But there is also one point, if the other party uses a magic weapon to fight with Sun Wukong, then Sun Wukong will suffer.

His biggest headache is those strange magic weapons......

Let's talk about Gu Ming.

Compared with Sun Wukong, he is definitely inferior in terms of pure strength. But if you use all kinds of supernatural powers, even if you can't win Sun Wukong, it will be difficult for Sun Wukong to win him.

In other words, in terms of comprehensive strength, he should be close to Sun Wukong.

And Guanyin's strength is beyond that of Da Luo Jinxian, and I am afraid that it is not far behind Rulai.

So, how could Gu Ming be an opponent?

But at this time, Guanyin was just a temptation, and it was impossible to go all out.

If you go all out, it will not be called temptation, nor will it be called beating, but it will be a direct declaration of war.

"Huh?"

After a while, Guanyin couldn't help frowning when he saw Gu Ming's calm face and didn't seem to be affected by anything.

In fact, Gu Ming was only relaxed on the surface, because he couldn't let the other party completely guess his depth, so he mobilized his strength to resolve such a coercion.

"I don't know what the Bodhisattva has taught when he comes?"

Tang Seng didn't know that Guanyin was testing Gu Ming, and seeing that the Bodhisattva didn't speak, he couldn't help but ask.

In this way, Guanyin finally withdrew his coercion, looked at Tang Seng and asked indifferently: "Tang Sanzang, at the beginning, this seat had high hopes for you and instructed you to go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, but I never thought about it, but you made this seat deeply disappointed. ”

Sure enough, he came to Xingshi to ask for sin.

Tang Seng sighed, and Heshi recited a Buddha name: "Amitabha, the disciple has certainly failed the Bodhisattva's teachings. However, the disciple's mind of the Western Heavenly Scripture has never wavered. ”

"Not shaken? What have you done in your daughter country? For a woman who repeatedly broke the vows.

In the end, he even married him, and you still said that your mind was not shaken? ”

"Bodhisattva, when it comes to getting married, the disciples are also forced to do so......

At first, the disciple also thought that he had cultivated the six pure roots, but he never expected that he would move his mortal heart.

Disciples do not dare to deceive their hearts, if they forcibly suppress it, it will inevitably cause the growth of demons in their hearts.

Therefore, the disciple chose to face this heart tribulation calmly......"

"But in the end, you didn't survive it."

"No, the disciple thinks that the disciple has successfully survived this calamity.

My Buddha said, "Purify all sentient beings." However, if the disciple can't even cross his own heart, and even the people around him, how can he talk about purifying sentient beings?

The disciple got married this time, in fact, he was also crossing the boundless sea of suffering.

Win the hearts of the disciples, and the heart of the queen to the other side. If you don't cross, maybe the disciples and the queen will sink into the sea of misery, and it will be difficult to extricate themselves for the rest of their lives......

As long as the Buddha is in the heart, the disciple will have a clear conscience......"

"You ......"

Guanyin was so angry that she didn't know what to say.

She never expected that Tang Seng would become so eloquent, but it was still reasonable and well-founded, which was difficult to refute.

"Amitabha, if the Bodhisattva thinks that the disciple is wrong, the disciple is willing to be punished. It's just that the disciple's heart to learn scriptures in the west has never wavered, and he also asked the Bodhisattva to allow the disciple to continue to go to the west to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures. ”

Hearing this, Guanyin couldn't help sighing: "Well, what you said is right, this calamity is your fate."

Now that you have seen through it and have passed it, it is also a gratifying thing.

Next, you need to keep a pious heart, continue your journey west, and don't be fooled by the red dust again. ”

Tang Seng was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly said: "The disciple respectfully follows the Bodhisattva's teachings. ”

"Alright, you can continue on your way......"

"Obey the law!"

"This Taoist friend stays, this seat has something to say to communicate with Taoist friends."

Guanyin glanced at Gu Ming again and said.

"This is the luck of the next."

Gu Ming replied with a smile.

What exactly he wants to talk about, he can almost guess in his heart.

Sure enough, after Tang Seng and the others left, Guanyin got straight to the point and said: "Actually, we already know your origin and faction, you are a disciple of Confucianism, but you don't belong to this world......"

"I can't hide anything from the Bodhisattva......"

Gu Ming smiled.

"No, you should know in your heart, your origin is not actually counted in this seat, but there is one person who knows."

At this point, Guanyin did not take credit, after all, Gu Ming is not a Tang monk, and it is useless to cover up some things, so he can only talk about it clearly.

"Well, maybe...... When I first came to this world, I was fortunate enough to meet my mother. He was favored by his mother and accepted a friend as a disciple. ”

"Well, since you are not an ordinary person, then this seat will not go around the corner, what is the purpose of your coming to this world?"

Gu Ming thought for a while and said, "Dashi, whether you believe it or not, I have always respected you very much, and I have never thought of being your enemy.

Including everything I'm doing now, and I haven't thought about who I'm making enemies of.

In fact, what I did was the same as what the gods in heaven did, that is, to educate the people of the world, to make them literate, to make them understand etiquette and law, and at the same time to strengthen their bodies and to do their best to reduce the harm of the sick......"

These words made Guanyin stunned.

Grabbing land is grabbing turf, and even saying it is so impassioned that it is difficult to refute.

Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, although there are differences in philosophy, there is one thing in common, that is, to educate the people and persuade people to be good.

Therefore, Gu Ming's words are also tenable. Let the people of the world know etiquette and abide by the law, and they are all the same from the starting point.

It's just that, if you think about it deeply, this is actually an act of fighting against the Buddha realm and the heavenly court.

But, what can Guanyin say?

Since ancient times, Confucianism and Taoism have a deep relationship, you have me, I have you.

The important thing is that in the mortal world, the advantages of Confucianism are quite obvious, whether it is a king or a group of ministers, including a group of students in the world, which one has not been influenced by Confucianism?

Therefore, it is impossible to suppress Confucianism.

It's just that the former Confucianism was almost integrated with the people.

Now, it's different.

Under Gu Ming's guidance, a relatively complete cultivation system has been formed, and disciples have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain......

If this continues, it will indeed bring a lot of trouble and impact to the Western Heaven Buddha Realm and Heavenly Court.

The two are dominant, and they have become a three-legged stand.

"Okay, your intentions may be good, but have you ever thought about the consequences?"

"The consequences?" Gu Ming replied lightly: "Elder Tang went to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, and demons were infested along the way, but he still stepped out of Chang'an without hesitation, walked towards the desert, and walked towards the mountains.

This is a belief.

Moreover, he was a disciple of Confucianism, and what he did was also to promote Confucianism.

Could it be that in the eyes of the gods and Buddhas in the Western Heavenly Buddha Realm and the Heavenly Court, Confucianism is a crooked and evil way, and it cannot be suppressed? ”

"This ......"

It is impossible for anyone to answer these words to deny Confucianism, whether it is Guanyin, or Rulai, or the Jade Emperor, Taishang Laojun, and so on.

Confucianism is a great unification, and it has been used by successive kings to govern the world, and no one can deny the status of Confucianism.

Gu Ming grasped this point and asked a rhetorical question, making Guanyin unable to answer.

The answer is, isn't that a denial of Confucianism?

She can't afford to carry this pot.

If she answered no, wouldn't it mean that she recognized everything Gu Ming had done?

Of course, Gu Ming accepted it when he saw it, and as soon as he changed his words, he said with a smile: "The Bodhisattva has been cultivating for many years, and he must also know that a flower alone is not spring, and a hundred flowers bloom in spring."

In addition, for the common people, to take a simple example, the common people can eat rice, they can eat pasta, they can eat vegetables, they can eat meat......

Noodles can be made into steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, dumplings, noodles and so on.

When you are leisure, you can drink some wine, go out for a walk, listen to small songs, go to the temple to make incense, go to the Taoist temple to listen to the Tao, and go to the bookstore to read books......

Everything in the world is not static.

The lives of the people are also colorful and not limited to a certain way of life.

Even the gods can't force them to eat only rice or pasta, after all, the people also have the freedom of the people and their own pursuits.

Therefore, whether it is Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, or some other school, they all have the right to choose and have the freedom of belief.

Moreover, there is nothing wrong with choosing both at the same time, just like a table in front of you, there will always be something you like, something you don't like, or you like all of them......"

These words sound very straightforward, but they grasp the details of life, which are reasonable and well-founded, and they make Guanyin listen to them a little fascinating.

On weekdays, she preaches the Fa with her disciples, or goes to the Western Heaven Buddha Realm to listen to the Fa, or discusses Zen and Taoism with the people of the Heavenly Court, all of which are some profound truths.

How can you talk about some trivial things in the mortal world seriously like now?

But it is such mortal trivial matters that are the foundation of the people, and there is great truth in trivial matters.

To put it simply, what Gu Ming wants to say is that guests can choose a table of dishes, and if he likes it, he will naturally eat more, and if he doesn't like it, he will eat less.

The deep meaning of this is that whether it is Confucianism, Buddhism, or Taoism, the people have the freedom to choose, or even all of them, which is not contradictory.

If you want to talk about lip service, there are really not many people who can talk about Gu Ming.

Combined with the effect of exports, it is even more invincible.

"Daoyou is really good at arguing, this seat has been taught, and there will be a period later!"

Guanyin said goodbye and took off.

However, she didn't really leave, but arrived at a mountain that Tang Seng and his apprentices had to pass through on their westward journey.

Here, there is a fairy cave: Pipa Cave.

There is a scorpion spirit in the cave. This scorpion spirit is not an ordinary goblin, the Tao is quite high, but a demon king-level existence.

And this scorpion essence is also a bit of a background, and it has always been regarded as a rule-by-law, and he wants to achieve positive results.

As soon as Guanyin arrived outside the cave, the scorpion spirit sensed it and hurriedly walked out of the cave.

"See Master Guanyin!"

The scorpion spirit saluted respectfully.

"Well, I know that you have always kept the rules and wanted to achieve positive results. Now, I'm here to give you a chance......"

……

"Brother Royal, Brother Royal......"

Let's say that Tang Seng and his party had just entered the mountain, and suddenly, a nine-colored deer rushed over, and the queen rode on the nine-colored deer and kept calling at Tang Seng's back.

As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Tang Seng's body stiffened, and then slowly turned around.

"Why is this woman still catching up?"

Zhu Bajie couldn't help muttering.

Sun Wukong was puzzled, and subconsciously looked at it with fiery eyes, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Strange, didn't you say before you left that you would wait in your daughter's country? Why did this woman catch up again?

In fact, this time Sun Wukong really looked away...... Of course, this is not to blame him, because this is another test of Tang Seng by Guanyin according to Rulai's orders.

Since Tang Seng has a deep affection for the king of his daughter country, Guanyin instructed the scorpion spirit to pretend to be the queen to test Tang Seng.

and promised the Scorpion Essence that as long as she does her best to play the queen, no matter what the result is, she will give the Scorpion Essence a chance to achieve positive results.

In this regard, the scorpion essence naturally couldn't ask for it.

In order to prevent Sun Wukong from seeing the true body of the scorpion essence, Guanyin cast a spell on the scorpion essence.

Therefore, now even Sun Wukong thinks that the scorpion spirit is really the king of the daughter country.

But this time it was Tang Seng who was puzzled.

After all, there is a tacit understanding between him and the queen, and he has also made an agreement, but now he violates the agreement and suddenly runs, which inevitably makes Tang Seng suspicious.

However, before the authenticity is confirmed, Tang Seng will not show a suspicious look.

"Your Majesty, how did you catch up?"

"Brother ......"

This scorpion spirit is a goblin and a drama spirit, tears ripple when they meet, and they look faint and resentful.

"Since you left your daughter's country, one of my hearts has flown away with you...... I can't leave, what is the meaning of my life if I can't be with you? ”

"Your Majesty, you must not be so ......"

"Brother Yu, this is not the place to talk, there is a palace of the daughter country in this mountain, so you should also go and rest for the night."

"Okay, good, good......"

Where did Zhu Bajie hear this, and immediately accepted it.

"It's good!"

Tang Seng sighed secretly and responded.

"Brother Yu, come up, I'll take you there."

The scorpion was secretly happy and tried his best to invite Tang Seng to ride the nine-colored deer together.

Tang Seng didn't refuse, after all, he had married the queen, and it was no big deal to ride together.

However, Sun Wukong had an extra heart and asked, "Why haven't I heard that you have a palace outside?" ”

"That's right, this palace is rarely used, so I forgot to tell my brother and sister before."

In this regard, the scorpion spirit has already prepared a statement, but he is not afraid of revealing flaws.

The important thing is that her cave has already cast a spell and turned into a palace. Moreover, the maids in the palace themselves are the women of the daughter country.

Some of them were captured by her, and some of them were willing to stay and serve her.

But whether it is captured or left willingly, it can be regarded as loyal to the scorpion spirit.

Because the scorpion spirit is also very good to these maids, he never punishes them easily, and often gives them some elixirs to eat, so that they can maintain their youthful appearance.

As a result, these women are even more reluctant to leave.

Therefore, this time with Tang Seng over, the scorpion essence is not afraid of revealing the stuffing at all.

Her task is to find a way to keep Tang Seng and see if Tang Seng's will to learn the scriptures is firm......
