Chapter 909: The Seventh Mortal Fate

Zhang Yuanshan and the others couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Zhao Wan'er's stunned expression, and they all stretched out their heads. The mirror showed the past of each of them, and several people were stunned.

Li Bing slowly opened his eyes, and saw that everyone was wide-eyed and couldn't close his mouth, and he felt strange in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "What are you guys doing?" ”

Li Bing asked a few times, and everyone woke up like a dream and came back to their senses. Zhao Wan'er said what she saw in the mirror just now, and Li Bing was also surprised.

He stretched out his head to look in the mirror and was surprised to find that the mirror did not reflect his past as Zhao Wan'er said. When the other people saw Li Bing's stunned expression, they couldn't help but poke their eyes out.

At this glance, everyone was surprised at first, and then couldn't help laughing. It turned out that a bald-headed little monk appeared in the mirror, and his eyebrows and eyes were no different from Li Bing's.

Zhao Wan'er exclaimed: "No wonder along the way, there are always gods who keep hinting that Li Bing is not an ordinary person, but has a great relationship with Buddhism, it turns out that he is a little monk." ”

Everyone was laughing, and suddenly saw a vicious green dragon appear in the mirror, and viciously swallowed the little monk in the mirror into his stomach.

Everyone was shocked and looked at Li Bing anxiously, but saw that he had closed his eyes tightly, sitting cross-legged, and a few green tendons were faintly beating in his neck.

Suddenly, a golden light burst out of the mirror, and when everyone looked in the mirror urgently, they saw the golden light bursting out of the green dragon's belly, and the little monk had already broken through the dragon's belly.

The little monk suddenly appeared with a golden body, green eyebrows and red hair, with his shoulders and bare feet, holding the horns of the green dragon with one hand, and stepping on the dragon's back with both feet. The green dragon struggled a few times, but he still couldn't break free from the strange monk who had become hideous.

The strange monk grabbed the dragon's horn with one hand, and took out a purple gold bowl with the other, aiming at the head of the green dragon. A powerful white light came out of the bowl, covering the green dragon, which continued to grow smaller and smaller, and was gradually sucked into the bowl.

After the strange scene in the mirror disappeared, Li Bing also opened his eyes. Shi Liya paused for a while and said, "Li Bing, you are actually the reincarnation of the Dragon Descending Arhat?" ”

Li Bing smiled and didn't answer, and Zhao Wan'er asked anxiously, "Sister Shi, the reincarnation of the Dragon Descending Arhat?" Could it be that the image in the mirror just now is Li Bing's Dharma Body Dragon Descending Arhat? ”

Shi Liya nodded, then shook her head again and said, "I'm not sure either!" The name of the Dragon Descending Arhat is Qingyou Venerable, and he is the seventeenth Arhat among the eighteen Arhats, ranking before the Fuhu Arhat. Because it is said that he subdued the demon dragon, he is called the Dragon Venerable. ”

"However, there is also a folk legend that the Dragon Descending Arhat is the Venerable Kasya, a disciple of the Buddha. The origin of this legend is said to have been established by Emperor Qianlong during the Qing Dynasty. The sixteen Arhats before the Dragon Descending Arhat were the sixteen great disciples of the Buddha, and the Buddha ordered them to reside in the human world to purify all sentient beings. ”

"Although the Dragon Descending Arhat and the Fuhu Arhat are ranked after the top sixteen, their mana is above the other sixteen Arhats. Moreover, although the other sixteen Arhats are resident in the human world, they are close to the realm of bodhisattva cultivation, so they often appear in the world in various incarnations in a low-key manner, but they are rarely known to the world. ”

"The two Arhats, the Dragon Descending Dragon and the Fuhu, although they have high magical power, often think about the sufferings of the world, and often show their spirits to help people when they are in danger, hoeing evil and promoting good, because they are widely recited by the world, and the world often worships the two Arhats and offers them with incense."

"The Jigong known to the world is said to be the reincarnation of the dragon Arhat. Legend has it that Ji Gong, who was the Venerable of the Dragon Descending in his previous life, was born into the home of the good man Li Maochun, named Li Xiuyuan, and then joined the Lingyin Temple, calling himself 'Ji Mad'. In the Lingyin Temple, the madness is not limited to the rules and precepts of Buddhism, the behavior is abnormal, the heart is good, the evil is promoted to the good, the people of the time call it the Taoist monk, and is regarded as the "holy monk" and "living Buddha" by the people. ”

Everyone was very surprised, and looked at the smiling Li Bing in confusion and surprise. Zhao Wan'er said blankly: "How can Li Bing be the reincarnation of the Dragon Descending Arhat?" After being with us for so long, isn't he just like us, just an ordinary man in the world? ”

Shi Liya said with a smile: "Legend has it that in ancient India, there was a dragon king who flooded the exhausted country and hid the Buddhist scriptures in the Dragon Palace. Later, the Venerable Dragon Descending Subdued the Dragon King to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures and made great contributions, so he was awarded the title of 'Venerable Dragon Descending' by the Buddha. The dragon descending Arhat is a disciple of the Buddha, with boundless mana, helping the Buddha to subdue the dragon and subduing the demon, and has made a lot of miraculous achievements. ”

"The dragon descending Arhat has practiced for hundreds of years, but he has never been able to achieve positive results, so he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva for advice. Guanyin Bodhisattva told the Dragon Descending Arhat that although he had high mana, he had not yet attained the Bodhisattva or Buddha Attainment because he had not attained the Bodhisattva or Buddha Attainment because of the fate of the Seven Lives. With the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the dragon Arhat descended to the earth and was reincarnated in the world, purifying all sentient beings, and ending the unfinished fate. ”

"After the Seven Lives of Mortality, the Arhats who descend the dragon will be able to attain the right results and become the path of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Li Bing is different from us, he can't see himself in this mirror, but he appears in the form of a small monk, and then appears in the form of subduing the green dragon. Therefore, I think that Li Bing is the reincarnation of the Dragon Arhat, and when he came to the mortal world, he ended the fate of the seven worlds. It's just that I don't know if this life is his first life. ”

Zhao Wan'er came out and said: "Oh no, if Li Bing is a dragon arhat, then after he finishes exploring the secret in Qianling, isn't he already in this world?" Will Li Bing die or become a monk? ”

Zhang Yuanshan and Qian Yiduo couldn't help but laugh, only Shi Liya felt a trace of sourness in her heart. Although she has completely repented and knows that she has no fate with Li Bing, she has already regarded Li Bing as a little brother in her heart, and it can be seen that Zhao Wan'er cares about Li Bing so much, she still can't help but feel a faint pain in her heart.

Li Bing smiled and said: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, what Sister Shi said, can be believed or not." It's just that I understand that a few of us, after this exploration of Qianling, will completely lose the memory of this journey, and forget all kinds of weirdness, hardships and tribulations along the way. ”

Everyone shouted in surprise, the five of them had already lived and died together, shared the same fate, and had a deep affection, and no one wanted to become strangers all at once.

Li Bing smiled and said: "Don't worry too much, after this incident, all we forgot was the journey to Qianling, so as to keep the secrets of Qianling forever." The five of us, although we don't remember these things, the Dharma is mysterious, and instead of becoming strangers, we will have a deeper relationship. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the five people and ten hands couldn't help but clasp each other tightly, as if they were afraid of losing each other.

Li Binglang said: "This mirror is called the Qiankun Treasure Mirror, if it is driven by the Taoist gossip method, it can open a reincarnation tunnel." From this tunnel, we can go directly to the depths of the Qianling underground palace, venting the yin energy of the dragon vein, making the world peaceful. ”
