Chapter 440: The Three Treasures of Buddhism, Learning from the West Heaven
Facing the dog demon who bowed to him, Li Daoxuan didn't seem surprised at all, and his voice was slightly emotional.
"It's just that I haven't seen you for a few months, but I didn't expect you to have today's creation."
Roaring Heaven said respectfully: "If it weren't for the grace of the Immortal Chief's ignition in the past, the little demon would never have achieved what it is today, I'm afraid it would still be a muddy wild dog, already frozen to death or starved to death in a corner." ”
In the past, when Li Daoxuan first returned to Longhu Mountain, there were many cases of pregnant women hanging themselves in the mountain, and later Li Daoxuan found out to Shanghe Village, where he killed the horse demon, and found that the boy was controlled by Zhang Jiuxiao's son Zhang Tiande, and after the battle, he casually ignited a wild dog.
Originally, it was just a casual effort, an unintentional move, but I didn't expect this dog demon to have a lot of blessings, it seems that there was an adventure, and now although it has not reached the Yin God Realm, the strength of the physical body has been a few leaders in the Bigu Realm.
Li Daoxuan nodded, and then his eyebrows opened his eyes, and he looked at this dog demon, his eyes sank slightly.
On his body, he clearly saw a wisp of black qi, indicating that although this dog demon had never eaten people, he had not done any bad things.
Under Li Daoxuan's gaze, Lu Tian only felt as if he was being pressed by Mount Tai, and his whole body was out of breath, and his proud body actually had a feeling that it was about to collapse.
Especially the heavenly eye in the center of the immortal master's eyebrows, it had a huge pressure, as if everything about itself was seen through by that eye, and there was nothing to hide.
"The immortal master is angry, since the little demon was ignited by you, he has kept in mind your teachings, and has never fed on people, but sometimes he is hungry, and he will inevitably steal some chickens and ducks to eat. Later, he was exiled to Beishan, where he recruited some mountain spirits and wild monsters, and called himself the Demon King of Beishan, but he only scared and frightened merchants, and never hurt people's lives! ”
Li Daoxuan looked at it quietly, his eyes were like thunder, making the hair on its body stand up, but he never dared to resist and bowed his head humbly.
"Big brother, with me during this time, I have gotten rid of the habit of stealing, and I am no longer scary, so it's better to let it go."
Xuanzang couldn't help but intercede for him.
Li Daoxuan pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Nian Xuanzang pleads for you, plus what you have done is just a small evil, so I will let you go for the time being, and you will definitely do more good in the future." ”
He wasn't posturing, he was sounding the alarm to the dog.
Very few monsters can resist the temptation of cannibalism, because without exercises, they cultivate very slowly, and if they don't eat people, they can only rely on the hard work accumulated over time.
But the environment in which youkai live is the jungle, and if you are weak, it is very likely that you will become food or subordinates of other monsters.
Therefore, most of the monsters have a penchant for cannibalism, and for them, human flesh can not only speed up their cultivation, but also be a unique delicacy in the world!
This is also the reason why so many immortal mounts in "Journey to the West" can't help but eat people after they go down to earth, such as the carp raised by Guanyin, who likes to eat boys and girls the most.
As for the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge, not to mention, they directly created a terrifying cannibal kingdom.
Even the mounts of the gods and Buddhas are still like this, let alone ordinary monsters in the mortal world, so Li Daoxuan Demon gave it a preventive shot to prevent this dog demon from going astray.
As Li Daoxuan retracted his gaze, Roaring Sky only felt sweating profusely, and it had easily bitten several water ghouls to death just now, but now it was trembling with fright.
It was glad in its heart that it had resisted the temptation of cannibalism and had not touched the bottom line of the immortal master, otherwise it would have become a dead dog now.
"I'm also for your good, although cannibalism can speed up your cultivation, but it's tantamount to drinking water to quench your thirst, if you want to step into the Yin God Realm and transform into a human, you must survive the thunder tribulation, and the more sins you have, the more difficult the thunder tribulation will be."
Howling Tian's body trembled, and then his body became smaller, turning into a soft and cute little black dog, his tail wagging non-stop, running to Li Daoxuan's feet, rubbing his shoes.
"Thank you for your advice!"
That flattering appearance, a little licking dog alive.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, then walked to the Bashui River, staring at the corpses floating on the water, frowning slightly.
When did these water ghouls appear?
This is Chang'an, and if there are really water ghouls to make trouble, it is impossible for the bad people not to receive the news, unless these water ghouls have just appeared recently.
But Li Daoxuan looked around and found that the yin qi here was not heavy.
Water ghouls are monsters that will only be born in places with extremely heavy yin energy, and often only one will be born, like this situation where several water ghouls appear together, Li Daoxuan has only seen it once, that is, in the Surabaya River in Xuzhou.
But the Surabaya River is heavy, and during the period of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, because of the construction of the canal, many people were buried there, and it makes sense to give birth to several water ghouls, so why here?
Li Daoxuan was puzzled, and for some reason, he suddenly remembered the rumors he heard when he was in Xuzhou.
A man accidentally fell into the Surabaya River in Xuzhou and survived, but he became a madman, shouting all day and night that there were thousands of water ghouls under the water, as many as the heavenly soldiers and generals.
Later, Li Daoxuan used a unicorn to whisk the dust into the water to catch demons, but only found eight water ghouls.
……
"Big brother?"
Xuanzang saw Li Daoxuan standing by the water, and he didn't speak, and couldn't help shouting.
Li Daoxuan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”
"Big brother, is there still such a monster underwater?"
"Nope."
Xuanzang nodded, and then requested: "Big brother, I fell into the water before and dropped two things, one is a book and the other is a bowl, can you help me find it?" ”
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and said, "It's just a trivial matter." ”
He bent his fingers a little, only to see the water column rushing up and sending two things to Xuanzang, one is "Three Hundred Children's Songs", and the other is a purple gold bowl.
The moment he saw the purple gold bowl, Li Daoxuan showed a look of surprise.
Because this bowl is the magic weapon of the evil Buddha Maha, this thing can become very large, and there is an infinite amount of things in it, and it can suck people into it, and it is very strong.
Before Li Daoxuan smashed it with the seal of Fantian, Maha wanted to block it with a purple gold bowl, but the bowl was directly smashed into the air, like a popular slip, I don't know where it fell.
Later, Li Shimin also sent people to look for it, but they found nothing.
I didn't expect it to be in Xuanzang's hands!
It can only be said that Xuanzang is worthy of being the first monk of the Tang Dynasty in the future, a person who learns scriptures from the West, and has a deep Buddhist relationship.
As if the trajectory of fate.
and the book "Three Hundred Children's Songs", which made Li Daoxuan think about it.
"Xuanzang, didn't Master Sanle teach you to practice?"
Li Daoxuan said tentatively.
The current Xuanzang still has no mana fluctuations on his body, not even the Bigu Realm.
Xuanzang shook his head, his expression was calm, and said: "Master must have his considerations, and I also found that what I like more than practice seems to be reading and translating Buddhist scriptures." ”
He looked at Li Daoxuan, showed a sincere smile, and said: "Big brother, I have already figured it out, life is between heaven and earth, each has its own use, just like you, big brother, you can be a mountain that shelters from the wind and rain and shelters the common people, and my ability is limited, and being a grass that can shelter ants is already satisfied." ”
"The big matter of slaying demons and eliminating demons will be handed over to you, eldest brother, I will chant in the morning and evening drums, chanting in front of the Buddha day and night to pray for the eldest brother."
Li Daoxuan was stunned, looked at Xuanzang with clear eyes and a peaceful demeanor, and was immediately impressed.
He didn't expect that Xuanzang's state of mind had made such great progress in just two years, and now he really has a trace of the temperament of a monk.
Don't be confused by power, don't be disturbed by fame and fortune, let go of unnecessary desires, and gain peace of mind.
This is a rare quality.
"Xuanzang, the eldest brother is really impressed by you, I believe that in the future, you will never be just an ordinary monk, once you are enlightened, you will be able to become a late bloomer!"
Lee believes that there is some kind of underworld force that is driving the trajectory of fate.
Now that the gods and Buddhas are gone, there will be no more Guanyin Bodhisattva to give Xuanzang the three treasures, and he will be the one who learns scriptures for the western heavens, but two of the three treasures have now come to Xuanzang's side, one is a purple gold bowl, and the other is a brocade robe in Li Daoxuan's gourd.
and the book "Three Hundred Children's Songs", which made Li Daoxuan have an urge to tear it apart, and then put it back together to see if it can be composed of "The Great Day Rulai True Scripture".
"Xuanzang, Master Sanle came to Chang'an before, and asked me to take care of you, he has something to leave for a while, and he will come back to you soon, otherwise you will live with me in the Xuandu courtyard first?"
"Or I have a house in the capital that His Majesty has rewarded, and I can also give you a place to live."
Xuanzang heard that his master was no longer in Chang'an at this time, and there was a trace of disappointment in his heart, but he quickly regained his strength.
"Big brother, can you recommend me to go to Daxingshan Temple to practice Buddhism? I heard that there are 10,000 volumes of Tibetan scriptures there, and even ancient Sanskrit scriptures brought by Janaborita and Dharmagupta from Tianzhu, and I want to go there to practice the Dharma and read the scriptures. ”
Xuanzang's eyes showed a hint of expectation, for him, these ancient Buddhist scriptures with subtle words and meanings were more attractive than spells and supernatural powers.
It's just that he is just a small novice now, and he has not yet received the bhikshu ordination, let alone go to Daxingshan Temple to study Buddhist scriptures, even if he wants to go there to sweep the floor, he may not be qualified.
Daxingshan Temple is the most prosperous temple in Chang'an, located in Dongjing Shanfang, was built in the first two years of Emperor Tai of Jin Dynasty, formerly known as "Zunshan Temple", and was later renamed Daxingshan Temple by Emperor Wen of Sui, which has a history of more than 400 years.
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly, and said: "This matter is easy, wait for me and I to repair a letter and hand it over to the abbot of Daxingshan Temple, he will definitely treat you as a guest, and there is no problem with any Buddhist scriptures you want." ”
"Thank you, big brother!"
Xuanzang bowed and saluted, very grateful in his heart, this matter may be just a gesture for the eldest brother, but for him, it is the realization of his dream wish.
"Why be so polite with me, by the way, the eldest brother has another gift for you, make sure you like it!"
Li Daoxuan's hand turned over, and the brocade robe in the Three Realms Hun appeared in the palm of his hand, with red cloth and gold patterns, inlaid with seven treasures of Buddhism such as glaze and agate, which was really brilliant and shining in the sun.
"This is a brocade robe, made of the seven treasures of Buddhism, invulnerable, invulnerable, and merit and luck protection, ordinary demon law is difficult to hurt the body, if you can wear it today, even if there are ten water ghouls, it can't pull you!"
Saying that, Li Daoxuan wanted to put it on Xuanzang.
Xuanzang hurriedly took a step back and said, "Big brother, this is too precious, I must not accept it!" ”
The grace of the sword gift has not been repaid, and the preciousness of this robe in front of him is far better than the fish intestine sword, if he receives it, how can his conscience be at ease?
Li Daoxuan laughed and said, "Your eldest brother and I am a Taoist priest, no matter how good this robe is, I can't wear it, if the master knows that I am wearing a robe, I'm afraid I will have to be expelled from the school!" ”
Xuanzang still shook his head and said stubbornly: "Then I can't accept it!" ”
Li Daoxuan's eyes moved, and a smile appeared, he thought of a good idea, and he didn't worry about Xuanzang's refusal to wear it.
"Xuanzang, look at your clothes, they are all wet from the water just now, and I feel that I can't wear them anymore, big brother will help you change them."
Xuanzang was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw his eldest brother bending his fingers at him, and suddenly the red sword light flashed, like lightning.
He only heard the sound of the cloth breaking, and his body was cold, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he was already standing between heaven and earth naked, and all the clothes on his body were chopped into powder by the sword qi.
"Big ...... Eldest brother! ”
Xuanzang's face turned red in an instant, like a ripe persimmon.
Li Daoxuan laughed and threw the brocade robe to him.
"Xuanzang, now only this robe can be worn, of course, if you still don't want to wear it, the eldest brother won't force you."
"Wow!"
The thief glanced at Xuanzang awkwardly, and raised his eyebrows, revealing an exclamation.
It's okay, the little monk doesn't show his face.
Xuanzang didn't hesitate, immediately put on his robe, and felt that there were clothes on him, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still red.
"Big brother still has something to deal with, so I'll go first, I'll arrange the affairs of Daxingshan Temple, you just have to go, besides, I'll borrow it from you."
Li Daoxuan said this, and with a wave of his long sleeves, the space around him and Roaring Heaven shook slightly, like ripples on the surface of a calm lake.
The next moment, a man and a dog disappeared.
Xuanzang bowed in the direction where Li Daoxuan disappeared, and then carefully took the purple gold bowl and the "Three Hundred Children's Songs" and walked in the direction of Daxingshan Temple.
But what he didn't know was that about half an hour after he left, the corpse floating in the water suddenly sank to the bottom of the lake, and when it reappeared, it had turned into a pile of white bones, as if it had been eaten by something.
……
"Wow!"
"Immortal Master, it's so scary here, that dragon in the sky is staring at us!"
Roaring with his little short legs, hiding behind Li Daoxuan, his tail cocked high, his hair standing on end, and he seemed to be frightened.
Roar!
A dragon roar was born in the void, and the dragon qi hovering on the Taiji Palace was awakened, as if he sensed that a monster had entered the palace, and the dragon's eyes looked in the direction of Li Daoxuan.
The dragon tattoo behind Li Daoxuan was slightly hot, and there were bursts of dragon groans, as if they were talking to the dragon qi.
Eventually, the dragon qi looked away and stopped paying attention.
Roaring finally lowered his tail and stuck out his tongue to gasp, seemingly frightened.
It knew that if it hadn't been for the protection of the immortal master just now, I am afraid that it would have been bitten to death by that dragon now!
"Can you see the dragon?"
Li Daoxuan asked suddenly.
"Wang, I can see it, I'm scared to death!"
Li Daoxuan's eyes moved, and he was a little curious about the adventures of this dog demon.
Whether it is the dragon qi or the dragon chant just now, ordinary people can't see and hear it, and people who are cultivators or those with higher spiritual levels can sense the existence of dragon qi, but they can't see it either, unless they cultivate a powerful pupil technique, or have an extraordinary bloodline.
For example, Li Daoxuan's Erlang Zhenjun Cave Open Heaven Eye Method.
This dog demon doesn't have a pupil technique, and he can see the dragon qi only by relying on his own bloodline, and the origin of his heels and feet is probably unusual.
This is also what Li Daoxuan is curious about, you must know that when he ignited this demon, the other party was just an ordinary wild dog.
But now is not the time to ask, Li Daoxuan looked around, the house was beautifully decorated, covered with soft carpets, with many porcelain vases, and all kinds of beautiful flowers and plants inside.
This is Changle's boudoir.
Li Daoxuan said to the sky: "I want you to help me find someone through the smell." ”
