Chapter 183: Equality and Justice
The slightest fluctuation in Maitreya Buddha's eyes was fleeting, and he felt that things had developed into an unexpected situation.
The reason why he recalled the gibbon monkey was also to calculate that the heavenly opportunity that should be clear at a glance began to be confused.
Tang Sanzang's westward journey to learn scriptures from the four masters and apprentices is related to the great prosperity of Buddhism, and now it has entered the second half, and there must be no mistakes.
I hurriedly wanted to mention my life to the gibbon monkey's ears to prevent any accidents.
Yang Jiao looked at Maitreya Buddha calmly, and understood that the master in front of him probably had no master-apprentice friendship with him.
Otherwise, in the original plot, the gibbon monkey told everything he thought at first, but said that he had not let go of the fame and fortune in the world, and was punished for copying scriptures.
So as to bury the obsession deeply, just wait for people to water and fertilize.
Later, there happened to be a senior brother Huang Mei who was excellent for the gibbon monkey, but his temperament of fanning the flames directly led to the gibbon monkey's obsession breaking through the ground and finding trouble for Sun Wukong in the lower realm.
Later, the gibbon monkey fought with Sun Wukong, captured him, and brought back to the Maitreya Dojo.
Maitreya Buddha also did not have any empathy for the gibbon monkey, and imposed a heavy punishment and sealed it into the yin and yang pole gourd, but the gourd fell into the hands of the crow spirit related to Sun Wukong.
The more Yang Jiao thought about it, the more he felt that there were many shady scenes inside, judging from the final ending.
Everything that the gibbon monkey has experienced has not only completed the calamity of learning from the scriptures, but also taken the opportunity to make the merits of the Fuhu Arhat return to the place successfully, killing two birds with one stone.
I know that all this is a calculation, why Maitreya Buddha would accept himself as a disciple, it is fundamentally for the benefit of Buddhism.
Perhaps in his eyes, the gibbon monkey itself is a tool man for the Journey to the West, and a cow and horse in the future Buddhism.
Naturally, I won't take it to heart, so how can I talk about the friendship between master and apprentice, and how to get into the eyes of the future Buddha, the Buddha, if I am only an arhat in the future.
Will the strong put themselves in the shoes of the weak, will they?
Judging by what Maitreya Buddha did, it is clear that it will not.
"Amitabha, gibbon, you have entered the evil path because of the hatred in your heart, you need to know that the sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the shore."
Maitreya Buddha pondered for a while:
"Now go and copy the scriptures to calm your heart."
"Yes."
Yang Jiao's eyes flashed slightly, and he turned to leave.
Maitreya Buddha looked deeply at Yang Jiao's departing back, not knowing what he was thinking.
Although there is another plan to take this monkey in, in the end, it can be regarded as mutual benefit, and in the end, it also gives this monkey a positive result, and immediately does not think about it.
Inside a meditation room.
Yang Jiao seemed to be copying scriptures, but in fact, his thoughts were scattered and he was thinking silently.
Judging from the fact that Maitreya Buddha still asked him to copy the scriptures, he made up his mind to let himself follow the path planned by Buddhism, and wanted him to die completely.
Immediately, the residual friendship for Maitreya Buddha in Yang Jiao's heart completely disappeared.
"Hehe, gibbon, you are really useless, I will be different in this punishment for copying scriptures, follow the people who take the scriptures to take the Western scriptures, and subdue demons and eliminate demons."
Suddenly, a monkey's head appeared on the paper on which the scriptures were copied.
"Senior Brother Huangmei, don't make trouble."
In an instant, a man in a robe, with yellow hair and yellow eyebrows, manifested his figure.
"Senior brother, is this the Tao and the practice of refinement, I actually found out at a glance that it was me."
"However, it's useless, it's not like you're going to sit here and copy the scriptures."
Huang Mei was first surprised, then a little depressed, and then a look of indignation:
"What's so great about Sun Wukong, he canceled the book of life and death, made trouble in the heavenly palace, and insulted the Buddha, and caused all kinds of catastrophes, he can also go to the Western Scripture to make meritorious contributions to become a Buddha."
"It's so ridiculous, you should go, junior brother."
"Moreover, the two of you belong to the same kind, both are the four monkeys of the mixed world, one is a Lingming stone monkey, and one is a gibbon monkey, in terms of qualifications, you are exactly the same."
"In terms of Dao Law cultivation, I'm afraid it's far better than him now."
"Senior brother, in my opinion, you should fight with Sun Wukong once, let the world know that Sun Wukong is not as good as you, and when the time comes, see who dares to change your Monkey General Pavilion into a Great Sage Pavilion."
Yang Jiao was a little speechless in the face of Huang Mei's provocation, if he didn't know that he was a senior brother, or he was not afraid of big things, he really thought that he wanted to use the method to make himself robbed.
Thinking of the original plot line, Huang Mei was able to kill the teacher in order to save himself, and he fell from the fairy to the demon.
Yang Jiao sighed:
"Let's go."
"Uh, where are you going?" Huang Mei was stunned by Yang Jiao's sudden opening.
"Didn't Senior Brother say that I should fight with Sun Wukong in the lower realm."
Yang Jiao grabbed Huang Mei's shoulder, and the two immediately disappeared in place.
Suddenly, on the case where Yang Jiao copied the scriptures, a flash of light flashed, and a scroll of paintings appeared.
Suddenly, a fat figure appeared in the meditation room.
It is Maitreya Buddha, and as his own dojo, he naturally knows everything in the dojo.
Previously, he inadvertently revealed the matter of the gibbon monkey to Huang Mei, that is, he knew the temperament of the eldest apprentice, and he would definitely fight for the junior brother, so as to lure him to the lower realm.
But Maitreya Buddha thought about the conversation between the two before, and couldn't help but worry, afraid that his second apprentice would not play cards according to the routine, which was related to the great cause of Buddhism.
The gibbon monkey is one of the catastrophes of heaven, and it is impossible to avoid it, so that it is always concerned about everything that happens in the meditation room.
Fortunately, things are back on the right track.
Immediately, Maitreya Buddha waved his hand, and the scroll on the case spread out in mid-air.
I saw that the painting scroll was not a beautiful, stunningly beautiful landscape calligraphy and painting.
It's just two pictures.
In one picture, there are three men of different heights and heights, vividly appearing on the paper.
There was a low wall in front of them, and the three of them seemed to be looking at something facing the wall, and each of them had a box standing at their feet, increasing their field of view and allowing them to better see the scenery outside the wall.
As can be seen in the picture, the tallest man and the man of medium stature are tall enough to see the scenery outside the wall.
Even if the shortest man stood on the box, he couldn't see the scene outside because he wasn't tall enough.
Another picture.
At this time, the box under the feet of the tallest man is moved to the feet of the shortest man, so that the two boxes overlap.
So that the shortest man is enough to see the scene outside the wall, and the tall man is not too big to lose the chest and cannot see outside the wall.
I saw that the front picture was written on equality, and the back picture was written justice.
is such a simple painting scroll, but it makes Maitreya Buddha, who is in the golden fairyland, stunned.
"The so-called law of the jungle is an incentive for the weak, not a reason for the strong to bully the weak."
"In the face of the hopeless, we can impose heavy sentences to set the record straight."
"In the face of injustice and partiality, to endure it will make others worse."
In the painting scroll, Yang Jiao's voice suddenly came out slightly:
"What should the world do with slandering me, deceiving me, insulting me, laughing at me, despising me, despying me, hating me, and deceiving me?"
"Bear with him, let him, let him, avoid him, bear with him, respect him, ignore him, stay for a few more years, and look at him."
"Shinobi, it's not the way I'm going."
"Since the Buddha can't give me equality and justice, then I'll take it myself."
