Chapter 454: If you come to compromise
"The big picture counts."
Hearing the familiar four words, the faces of the Buddhas of Lingshan changed for a while.
These four words have been said many times over the past 4,000 years.
And whenever these four words were spoken, the powerhouses of the Three Realms all gave in.
This is the first time they have been persuaded to focus on the big picture.
"Emperor, do you really want to see each other?" The Buddha looked at Jiang Shan Dao.
"The Buddha's words are strange, didn't the Buddha bring people here today? Chaos yin and yang, bad order, or that sentence, dare to ask the Buddha what kind of explanation he wants to give, or if the emperor is in Lingshan, the Buddha is willing to give this explanation. Jiang Shan looked at the Buddha and smiled.
"The emperor really wants to force Lingshan to come here, if it is difficult to travel to the west, the Three Realms will be damaged, and under the nest, there will be eggs? The emperor really wanted to see this scene. "If you come to the Buddha's way.
"Yes, did the Buddha really want to see this scene? For the sake of the Three Realms, why don't you invite the Buddha to sit down? The big picture is important. Jiang Shan asked loudly.
The Buddha's complexion changed for a while, and finally he stretched out one hand, reversed time and space, and opened up a unique space, and then entered with the Buddha of the Burning Lamp, the Maitreya Buddha, the Guanyin Bodhisattva and the reluctant Buddha of Good Wandering.
Jiang Shan comprehended the meaning of the Buddha, and the next few things, the younger brothers were inconvenient to listen to, and took Hou Tu Niangniang, Dongyue Emperor, Jizo King Bodhisattva, and Choming into the world opened up by Rulai.
"What? The upright Buddha also has some things that he can't say outside, so he has to say them here? Jiang Shan said with a little joke.
"How can the emperor give up?" If the Buddha comes to the door, he will get to the point.
"The Buddha sits down." Jiang Shan chuckled.
The face of the ancient Buddha suddenly changed, it's over, right?
"The emperor doesn't want to joke." The Buddha looked ugly, not to mention that the lamp is now gradually becoming one heart with the Buddha, even if there are still two hearts, the lamp, as the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas, cannot die here.
Otherwise, the ancestors of the Buddhas of Buddhism were forced to die in public, what else is Buddhism doing?
Even their Buddhism will split first.
"What kind of joke, isn't it for the sake of the overall situation, anything can be sacrificed?" Jiang Shan Road.
"It's for the sake of the overall situation that we can't make such a hasty sacrifice. When we practice Buddhism, it doesn't hurt to pass away, but if we want to pass away, we must also have the value of death. The Buddha retorted.
"Emperor, what is the situation in the Three Realms now, I think you already know that the Heavenly Demon is menacing and imminent, only the Golden Cicada can save it, and the Golden Cicada is not enough to cultivate, it must be strengthened by Mahayana Buddhism, otherwise it will not be able to defeat the Heavenly Demon and flourish Buddhism, which is the necessity of the Three Realms. And the world has a lot of prejudice against Xiniu Hezhou, and the slander of Buddhism has accumulated for many years. The prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain that you can't move away no matter what, and what Buddhism does is indeed biased, but if it is not, let alone thousands of years, it is a Yuan Hui, and it may not be able to pull back prejudice. What the emperor is doing today is certainly taking care of some people, but it will be harmful in the long run. In the emperor's opinion, it should not be impossible to see. ”
When Jiang Shan heard this, he immediately let out a sneer.
The Buddha frowned displeasedly and said, "Why is the emperor laughing? ”
"Suddenly I thought of a funny thing, at first I wanted to reason with you, but as soon as you came, I had to show my strength first, and the lamp was even more empty to accuse Bendi of colluding with the devil, and then Bendi really admitted that I colluded with the devil, and you have to reason with Bendi again. Funny, you say, isn't it funny? Jiang Shan said with a smile.
The Buddha's face changed slightly: "It's not funny. ”
"But Emperor Ben thinks it's funny, and now the initiative is in the hands of Emperor Ben, so for the sake of the Three Realms, shouldn't the Buddha laugh with Emperor Ben?" Jiang Shan Road.
"The emperor is wrong, Jin Chanzi is my disciple, and now only Jin Chanzi can solve the Heavenly Demon." If the Buddha looks directly at Jiang Shan, I am the one who holds the initiative.
In order to solve the current crisis in the Three Realms, we must rely on Buddhism, and we must also strengthen Buddhism.
"But Bendi doesn't care. If Emperor Ben wants to take refuge in Bo Xun, Bo Xun can make Emperor Ben a demon venerable, and as long as Emperor Ben wants, Emperor Ben can hand over Luo Shu at any time. Jiang Shan said as a matter of course.
"You ......" Rulai Buddha's eyes widened, and he never expected Jiang Shan to answer this way.
And, more crucially, he didn't dare to gamble.
When he saw this, he laughed heartlessly.
"The emperor has great compassion in his heart, and he is a true Buddha in the world, so why make such jokes?" Seeing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up helplessly and said.
"Don't be flattering, I don't have much mercy. It is you, Avalokiteshvara, who are compassionate and compassionate. Seeing Guanyin come forward, Jiang Shan didn't delve into it anymore, and said, "I'm a barbarian, I don't know the overall situation, I only care about the spirit in my chest." I didn't look down on Bo Xun, so I came back to the Three Realms and gave the Buddha a chance, let the Buddha win over me, and let the Buddha get the Luo Shu. But the Buddha didn't cherish it. Or the Buddha can contact the Great Heavenly Venerable and the Three Qing Dao Ancestors and ask them to come and put pressure on me, but in the end, I don't know who this pressure will be. ”
Seeing Jiang Shan's fearless appearance, the Buddha took a deep breath, suppressed the resentment in his heart and said, "Does the emperor really not care about the heavenly demons at all? ”
He didn't want to look for it, first, he had his arrogance, the Jade Emperor and Taishang both acquiesced, and he still had to ask for help, which inevitably seemed that he was too incompetent, and second, Jiang Shan swore so much, obviously it was useless to find it.
This sentence should be asked by the Buddha, does the Buddha care about the heavenly demons? Do you want to defend yourself against the Heavenly Demons? Do you want to promote Buddhism? If you want, then follow the rules of Bendi. The Emperor has studied the Buddha, the Buddha should have also studied the Emperor, the Emperor has decided to do something, Heaven and Earth can not stop it, if you do not follow the rules of the Emperor, the consequences of the Buddha will be borne by himself. Jiang Shan said.
The Buddha's complexion changed several times, "Is the emperor really not worried about the deviation of the Journey to the West?" ”
"If that's the case, it's destiny." Jiang Shan's eyes turned sharp, "You can promote Buddhism, you can travel to the west, you can, it is the responsibility of the Three Realms to resist the Heavenly Demons, but you have to borrow the Emperor's Luoshu, you want your attitude, you want to promote your teachings, and you have to be within the rules of the Emperor, after the rules, the Emperor can congratulate you on not worrying about the Heavenly Demons, because you don't have to wait for the Heavenly Demons to punish you, the Emperor will punish you first!" ”
The ancient Buddha of the lamp was in his heart, he had a feeling that Jiang Shan was talking to him, after all, there were five people here, if they came, Jiang Shan couldn't punish them, Maitreya and Guanyin had an old relationship with Jiang Shan, and the Buddha was even more different, he himself had no friendship with Jiang Shan, and he couldn't beat Jiang Shan.
"In the list, Jingfu and Changmei Arhats have meritorious service to the Buddha, can they be given a light sentence?" After all, the Buddha didn't dare to gamble and took a step back.
Some people can't keep it, they can't do it, but some diehards always need to be protected.
"No." Jiang Shan said simply and directly, "Heaven and earth are round, since it is within heaven and earth, there is no outside, and there is no outsider who can not obey the law, today I am not discussing with the Buddha, just to inform the Buddha." Buddhism must be prosperous, but it must be under the law, otherwise even if the Three Realms are destroyed, this emperor will destroy the Buddhas of your Lingshan first. ”
The Buddha's eyes lit up, and he saw that Jiang Shan's eyes were flat and firm, as if he was not talking about such a big thing as destroying the Spirit Mountain, but just talking about a trivial matter.
"The old monk and the emperor have also had a relationship, and the emperor is not good at authority, I don't know why?" The Buddha took a deep breath and said, he saw Jiang Shan's resoluteness and Jiang Shan's madness.
He endured.
It's just that he doesn't understand, from Jiang Shan's words, he is sure that Jiang Shan has no intention of hindering the journey to the west, and the journey to the west really can't be stopped, so the final result is that the journey to the west will continue, and Jiang Shan, the person who is now hindering the journey to the west, will not be good after the journey to the west is successful.
According to his understanding of Jiang Shan, this is not in line with Jiang Shan's style of acting.
Why?
"Because Bendi is willing." Jiang Shan said, "One thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a demon." Over the years, the so-called sacrifice for the overall situation in your eyes, can you know that in their eyes, there is no difference between you and demons? The Buddha is enlightened, for the purification of sentient beings, cutting meat to feed eagles, flesh to the tiger, although ignorant but also have great love, but now what are you talking to me about the overall situation, trade-offs? Are you practicing Buddhism or cultivating demons? If it is said that the minority obeys the majority, killing a small number of people, and living the majority of people, then do sentient beings need you to purify? And you, who are accustomed to killing, are you really worthy of Buddhahood? ”
When the Jizo King Bodhisattva heard this, he looked at Jiang Shan as if he had seen the Buddha.
At this moment, Jiang Shan was shining in his eyes.
Guanyin Bodhisattva got up and saluted to Jiang Shan's disciples: "Thank you for the emperor's teachings, for many years, the poor monk has only thought of hundreds of millions of people in the Three Realms in his heart, but he has forgotten some things, that is, he must know that he cannot do it, and he must not forget his nature. ”
Maitreya Buddha's face was delicate, and he felt that although Jiang Shan could not abide by the rules and precepts of Buddhism, he could practice Buddhism, and today he is even more sure.
"The world is like this, and the old monk also needs to do what the world thinks." The Buddha explained a word.
"I am one of the people in the world, so the Buddha will do what I think in the future." Jiang Shan looked at the Buddha and said.
"All the people on the list will be handed over to the emperor for disposal. In addition, Buddhism still lacks a Bodhisattva, so it is better to ask the emperor's second brother to incarnate Guan Yu into the Buddha's door, be a Dharma Protector Bodhisattva, and supervise the Buddha's door, so that the emperor can feel at ease. "If you come to the Buddha's way.
He didn't want to agree, but right now, where was the opportunity for him to disagree.
Jiang Shan was more willing than him, so he had no choice.
What's more, the four major creations of Buddhism, in addition to lighting the lamp, Jizo follows Jiang Shan clearly, Guanyin is on his side, his heart is on Jiang Mountain's side, and Maitreya is not completely on his side.
If he doesn't compromise degradly, he's afraid he'll have to be passive and decent.
"That's the best." Jiang Shan said with a smile.
