Chapter 261: Golden Cicada
Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, oblique moon three-star cave.
At this time, on the Yaotai, Patriarch Bodhi was taking his seat. Under the seat, there is a monk holding a tin staff, sitting precariously with a very serious expression on his face.
The monk was dressed in white monk's robes, very simple, just like a mortal monk. The tin staff in his hand was shining with gold, and the nine rings were connected.
Patriarch Bodhi looked at the monk and said, "What is the matter with you coming to me today?" ”
The monk said, "I have come to ask the patriarch for my resignation. ”
"Resign?"
"Not bad."
The monk said: "Patriarch, you have kept me in the Sanxing Cave for half a year, but you have not taught me the slightest every day, just watching me see some scenic spots in the cave...... If this is the case, it is better to let me leave the three-star cave, which can better relieve the world and purify the common people. ”
When Patriarch Bodhi heard this, he shook his head slightly: "You have come to me, but you have been here for half a year, and you have resigned seven times. It is your temperament and vision that you are only obsessed with what is in front of you, so you will come to me. I originally intended to let you cultivate your self-cultivation, but now it seems that ...... If you want to go, let's go. ”
"In this case, the little monk will leave!" The monk stood up, turned away, and was about to leave.
But at this moment, suddenly, an endless divine light appeared in the eastern sky, and then accompanied by a dragon chant, colorful clouds, accompanied by the flow of brilliance, endless divine light gathered in one place.
"That's ......" The monk's gaze looked to the east, and the movement that was about to leave stopped.
Seeing this, Patriarch Bodhi said, "Why don't you leave?" ”
The monk looked at the patriarch, saluted respectfully, and said, "Since the disciple of the patriarch has arrived, the little monk has heard a lot about his name from the world, and he wants to see it. ”
The patriarch stroked his beard lightly and said, "It's okay." But after meeting him this time, you won't come to Sanxingdong again. ”
"...... this?" The monk was stunned.
The patriarch said: "I have a deep friendship with Rulai, but you, as his second disciple, really have no wisdom in my eyes. My spiritual platform is square inches, the oblique moon is three stars, and the cultivation of the mind is the top. Let you come this time, you have already seen the face of Rulai. ”
When the monk heard this, he was a little unconvinced, but in the face of the Bodhi Patriarch, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, so he had to put his hands together and said: "Little monk remember." ”
As he spoke, the colorful glow got closer and closer, and then turned into a dragon and landed in the distance of the mountain gate. Soon after, I saw a young man dressed in green clothes, with agile movements, stepping into the mountain gate.
The boy's movements were not hurried, and even gave people a feeling of slowness, but in an instant, he had come closer. In this way, the monk immediately saw that the young man was extraordinary.
Not only that, but the aura on the boy's body also gave him an unfathomable feeling. The young man's body seems to have Buddhist cultivation, as if he has Taoism and tranquility, and even seems to have the emperor's mana of heaven. Unpredictable and unpredictable.
If it is only said that it is "unfathomable", then the monks have seen a lot of great supernatural powers. But there are very few people like teenagers who have both three teachings and Taoism.
Perhaps, Bodhi Patriarch should be counted as one! However, after all, the gap in cultivation is too big, and the feeling that Patriarch Bodhi gave to the monks is that he has returned to the basics, and he can't see any clues at all.
Before the young man arrived, the monk rushed forward, clasped his hands together and said, "Little monk Jin Chanzi, I have seen a Taoist friend!" ”
That young man is naturally Ao Qing.
After Ao Qing came, he also felt that there was an extremely pure golden light of Buddhism in the Sanxing Cave. When I came closer, I found that it was a handsome monk.
As soon as the monk spoke, Ao Qing was very surprised.
This monk turned out to be a golden cicada!
Jin Chanzi is the second disciple of Sakyamuni Nyorai, and it is also the past life of the "Tang monk" of the four masters and apprentices on the way to learn scriptures in the West in the future.
In "Journey to the West", Jin Chanzi was demoted to the eastern soil because he did not listen to the sermon at the Bon Festival and despised Buddhism.
In the impression of ordinary people, the golden cicada was demoted to the mortal world by the Buddha because he dozed off when he heard the Dharma and was not serious. But in Journey to the West, it is not said directly.
And to be honest, Ao Qing felt that this statement was a bit frivolous.
The golden cicada is full of mana, if he doesn't want to be sleepy, how can he doze off? And dozing off is much lighter than the sin of breaking the glass cup, molesting the fairy, and making trouble in the heavenly palace. Ao Qing has also seen Rulai, who is not a person with a small belly, and it is impossible to blame him for this reason.
Of course, at present, the journey to the west itself is to spread Buddhism to the east, and it makes sense to choose a trustworthy person to find a reason to go.
However, Ao Qing still feels that "despising the Dharma" is not such a simple thing, and I am afraid that there are deeper reasons for this.
Ao Qing looked at the golden cicada. The golden cicada is handsome and has good mana, and it is faintly stronger than Yang Jian!
Although, this is also because Yang Jian's mana has not yet reached the peak that he is familiar with. But even so, it can be seen that the golden cicada is already a very powerful existence in the "fairy" realm. Although he is not as powerful as the Marshal of the Demon Swing and the Emperor of Donghua, if he does not use the Mixed Yuan Dragon Ball, the Heavenly Escape Sword Technique, and the Mountain Splitting Divine Halberd, it will still be difficult for Ao Qing to catch him.
But that's as it should be. In "Journey to the West", Zhen Yuanzi and Jin Chanzi have a relationship. What kind of strength Zhen Yuanzi has, Ao Qing is not sure, but after all, he can listen to the Dao Fruit of Yuan Shi Tianzun, even if there is no holy realm, it is already beyond the fairy realm.
Although when it comes to Taoism, it does not depend on the strength of the Dao, but Jin Chanzi and Zhen Yuanzi can have a friendship, at least in terms of "Dao", they have their own unique experience. And in general, this kind of person's cultivation is always not too weak.
In the previous life, there was a rumor that the body of the golden cicada was a cicada, but Ao Qingmu carried the golden light, but he did not find the slightest breath of the golden cicada. It seems that the meaning of "golden cicada" is more likely to be just a statement containing the meaning of "golden cicada shedding its shell" than saying that his body is a spirit.
Today's Ao Qing, who leads the Journey to the West, although he did not start, he still dare not underestimate the previous life of Tang Seng, one of the original protagonists in the Journey to the West. He first saluted to Patriarch Bodhi and said, "I've seen Master." After the Bodhi Patriarch nodded, he gently bowed his hand to the golden cicada and said, "Ao Qing, I have seen the golden cicada master, I don't know why the master came to the Sanxing Cave?" ”
Before Jin Chanzi could speak, Patriarch Bodhi said: "This Elder Jin Chanzi is the second disciple of Rulai, who has good knowledge and superb mana. You can talk to him about it, and if you have anything, you can come back later to find a teacher. ”
Ao Qing was stunned, but in the words of the patriarch, there was a faint meaning of some inexplicability. Ao Qing is a little unpredictable, but maybe he is reminding himself that Jin Chanzi is one of the candidates for Journey to the West?
He nodded and said, "Obey the master's orders." ”
