Which expert or scholar told you this, what is it that we are called to expound Buddhism and poison the world, and if we monks do not fight or kill, and we have no quarrel with the world, how can it be called endless troubles? Your Taoists are more powerful than our Buddhists, but you can't bully others!

Although I am not a true Buddhist disciple who wants to become a monk from the bottom of my heart, since I have joined this organization, I must speak for my gang, and I really won't agree to say this today.

I said to Sha Wujing: "What you say is biased, Buddhism has long been deeply rooted in the eastern soil, and there are countless people who believe in Buddhism, what you say today is completely unreasonable, and it is meaningless to stop Buddhist disciples here." ”

Sha Wujing shook his head and said: "You are short-sighted and only look at the present, let me ask you, now the people in the world believe in Taoism or Buddhism." ”

Although I am a monk, I have to admit that the influence of Taoist immortals on the world is far greater than that of Buddhism.

Zhu Bajie blurted out, "Naturally, there are many people who believe in Taoist immortals." ”

Sun Wukong nodded and said: "Which ordinary people do not worship heaven and earth, those who farm the land must worship the land, worship the dragon king, ask for a good wind and rain, and those who sit in the merchant must worship a god of wealth, and ask for a prosperous fortune, the one who opens a shop and cooks must worship the king of the stove, and those who read books must worship Wenqu Xing, in short, what the gods in the sky do, what do you worship." ”

I retorted: "There are many Taoist immortals, and they all perform their own duties, but there are also many Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in my Buddhist family, and they all have their own responsibilities. ”

Sha Wujing asked: "What do the people of the world want to worship the gods, and what do they want to worship the Buddha?"

Speaking of which, you Taoists are not as good as our Buddhists.

"There are a lot of Taoist rules, in addition to burning incense, worshipping the gods and goddesses must also offer three animals and fruits, gold and jade beads, fine wine and elixir, labor and money, my Buddhist family only needs to burn incense and bow and a piece of sincerity. ”

You see, our Buddhists don't need you to bring any sacrifices, as long as you usually eat fasting and recite the Buddha to do good deeds, our Buddhists will bless you.

Sha Wujing asked: "Buddhism talks about not being greedy for external things, not being attached to the world. ”

I nodded, "That's nature." ”

Sha Wujing said: "If everyone in the world believes in Buddhism, there is no need to offer sacrifices, only a few incense sticks are prepared, then who still goes to work hard, who still goes to raise six animals? If the people all enter Buddhism and become monks, no one in the world will get married and have children, everyone will only meditate and recite the scriptures, even if all of them become Buddhas, they will all be reincarnated, and the six realms will no longer be reincarnated, there will be no ghosts in the yin, and no one in the world, is this the pursuit of Buddhism?"

Isn't this a bit too far, an absolute fallacy, how can it be that all the people in the world believe in Buddhism, and Taoism will not decline......

Thinking of this, I was shocked, Taoism will really decline. Think about the world before me, where there are still a few Taoist temples in the world, and Buddhist temples can be said to be everywhere, even people who don't believe in Buddhism may hang a Guanyin or Maitreya Buddha around their necks, and those Bodhi Buddha beads or something have even become popular jewelry. When you think about it this way, the influence of Buddhism is indeed terrifying.

In the world before me, monks walking on the road would definitely look sideways, and some people might say Amitabha Buddha every year, but if a Taoist sat on the side of the road, people would just say that they were charlatans.

Yes, compared to the many Taoist gods who have to prepare various sacrifices and have to worship on time and day, the Buddhas of the Buddha family are indeed much faster, and they only need to kowtow on incense and be done.

Most of the people who believe in Buddhism only need to kowtow to Guanyin Bodhisattva and the Buddha is basically enough, in comparison, the Taoist god system is indeed too complicated, and people who are eager for quick success must prefer this fast and convenient Buddhism.

Although my heart was already a little shaken, I still refused to admit defeat, "If that's the case, then why do you still enter my sand gate?"

"I am an extraordinary person, what does it matter if I am a Buddha or the Tao, many of my Taoist immortals also have Dharma gods in the Buddhist family, and they are also Buddhas and Taoists. ”

Sha Wujing is right, there are indeed many powerful immortals in the Buddhist family of Dharma gods, in the same way, some bodhisattvas in Buddhism Buddha Buddha also have a Dharma body in Taoism, the monks and Taoists on the earth may fight for believers and hit the head and bleed, and these gods and Buddhas in the sky all have a shining Lei Feng red heart, they feel that they will go wherever they need it.

I feel that people's worship and prayer are actually not very concerned about the gods, they have their own big wishes, but the world is too big, sometimes they really can't take care of it, and at this time, if they hear the sound of prayer and see the offerings offered to them, they will put those people and places who will take the initiative to pray to them into their next plan.

Over time, people in the mortal world feel that these immortals are masters who do not accept gifts or do things, and they only need to move their fingers to control the suffering of the world, but they will only sit back and wait for people to worship, and even have hatred for Taoist immortals.

After coming into contact with Sun Wukong, I learned that the spells of the gods and demons all cost a lot, that is, their own lives. Any spell requires the consumption of mana, and a simple transformation spell consumes so many lives, God knows how many years of mana it takes to eliminate a great drought and suppress a locust plague, a thousand years old?

Although the Taoist immortals seem to be enjoying themselves in heaven every day, they seem to be immortal, but the four words of immortality are the living conditions of the immortals.

The immortals are immortal and ageless in appearance, but their lives still have an end, and every time they cast a spell, their lives will be shortened, and they will re-enter the cycle when their fortune is over.

The Buddhas on the spiritual mountain are different, they cultivate transcendence from reincarnation, eternal life and immortality, and the price is not to be polluted by everything in the world, not to be sad or happy, not to be dirty or pure, not to increase or decrease, not to be born and not to die.

In my understanding, the Taoist immortals are free from the shackles of the universe and enjoy their free life in the universe, and at the same time, they must also work hard to do their own work in order to earn more free lives, while the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Buddhist family want to become the eternal existence of this universe.

Compared with the Taoist immortals, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Buddha family are indeed much better to serve. But mortals don't think about it, their wishes come true, and there is a joint effort of gods and Buddhas behind them, and it is not the gods and Buddhas who affect people's lives, but the people themselves.

I'm not a person who has to fight for a win or lose, and I won't make it difficult for others, since what Sha Wujing said makes me feel that there is indeed some truth, then I should also respect his personal wishes, he doesn't want to go to the west, just let him be, but Guanyin Bodhisattva still enlightened you here, and also gave you the task of escorting me to the west, without your helper, it is indeed a loss for me to go west to learn scriptures.

I'm not a person who cares too much about gains and losses, but I've learned enough about how difficult it is on the road to learning from the experience, and if there is a possibility of one more helper, I still want to fight for it again.

I said to Sha Wujing: "General Rolling Blind, let me ask you, is twenty years long or short?"

Sha Wujing thought for a while: "Twenty years is fleeting for mortals, and for gods, Buddhas and demons like us, it is fleeting. ”

"Yes, twenty years with you to talk about a snap of a finger, the poor monk may as well speak bluntly, although I am a mortal, but also know some things before and after, I know that it only takes more than ten years to learn the scriptures, more than ten years for the poor monk is just a dream, this quicksand river is the moat, mortals and a few can cross, that is, the monk who came from the east to the west to the monk to the quicksand river, can only look back and sigh and look back, why do you bother to kill more here. ”

Zhu Bajie surprisingly helped me speak this time, "Sha Wujing, only for decades, there are not many people who have learned the scriptures here, it doesn't hurt to eat a few, it's better to go with us, first, not to make you lose your credibility in front of the Bodhisattva, and second, maybe you can have a chance to return to heaven." ”

"Return to Heaven, Return to Heaven!Hahahahaha!Who said I want to return to Heaven?Joke, joke!Hahahaha!"

Speaking of returning to the Heavenly Court, Sha Wujing laughed out loud, and I could hear that there was helplessness and sadness in his laughter. Returning to Heaven must be his dream, but he also knows that there is little hope, I don't know how important the Jade Emperor's glazed jade cup is, but it is a felony to be able to demote Sha Wujing to the mortal world because of breaking this thing and still torture it.

The glazed lamp is used as a Buddha front lamp in the western sky, just the dim light has brought a huge impact to Xiniu Hezhou, and the Sha Wujing has completely broken this glazed lamp, and I estimate that the consequences are unimaginable.

It is completely impossible to make such a mistake and return to heaven, and it is a miracle that you can survive without being sentenced to death.

Sun Wukong said: "You stay here is to eat a few more scriptures, what can you do, my master has obtained the true scriptures and sent them to the eastern soil, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty have believed in Buddhism, will all the efforts you have done here be in vain, if you are really afraid that this Buddhism will enter the eastern soil, it is better to eat my master now." ”

Hey, are you talking like that? Are you going to sell me, you monkey?

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "However, if you want to move my master, you have to pass the level between me and this idiot first, and ask us if the weapons in our hands are agreed." ”

Sha Wujing said: "It is very dangerous to go to Lingshan here, if you don't die in vain, you will turn back, I don't need to worry about what scriptures you can get." ”

I smiled and said: "Sha Wujing, the poor monk just said, I know this past and future things, I know that you will definitely go west with me, and I also know that many demons and monsters on the way to the west block me from moving forward, and I know that I will be able to obtain the true scriptures and return to my Tang Dynasty!"

Sha Wujing also smiled, "Knowing the things before and after, jokes, you monk is not crazy." ”

I said, "If I don't have this ability, how can I know that Pan Tao will be with the glass jade cup?"

Hearing me talk about the Pan Tao Club and the glass cup, Sha Wujing's smile disappeared suddenly.

"Tang Seng, how did you know about this glass jade cup?"

I smiled and didn't speak, can I say I only knew about it after watching a TV show? I said can you understand what a TV is?

Zhu Bajie asked in a low voice, "Monkey, is the glazed jade cup that Master is talking about the one that the Yellow Wind Monster stole the lamp oil or the one in Heaven?"

Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "How do I know, I haven't seen any glass cups." ”

Zhu Bajie said: "If it is the glass cup in the heavenly court, what does it have to do with this Sha Wujing, that cup is empty, and it is not filled with anything." ”

It turns out that the Jade Emperor's glass cup is just an ornament, and there is nothing in it, this is the first time I have heard of it.

Speaking of which, what is this glass cup, why does the Jade Emperor and the Buddha have one, is this the standard configuration for being the boss?
