Chapter Ninety-Four: The Eight Rings of the Green Dragon

It is said that Haotian, who was hiding in the dark and peeping, was startled by Zhu Bajie's sudden action and woke up from his contemplation.

I saw that Zhu Bajie suddenly stopped speaking, threw the nail rake, and pounced on Hou Yi, Haotian saw this, and wanted to take off, and was lightly dragged by Ling'er's arm, Haotian glanced at Ling'er, and saw that she shook her hand gently, and then turned back and continued to watch.

Zhu Bajie pounced in front of Hou Yi and was about to kneel, which was a move to overwhelm Mount Tai. I saw Hou Yi without revealing it, his demeanor stretched, his hand was like an arrow, fast and incoherent, his left palm turned up, and he supported Jiuding with one move, and the kneeling momentum of Bajie suddenly stagnated, but secretly continued to fight against each other.

It turned out that Zhu Bajie's move was intended to test Hou Yi's skills, he was proud of his talent and intelligence, and he had thousands of years of hard work, maybe Hou Yi was no longer his opponent.

Hou Yi secretly sneered in his heart, and chuckled disdainfully: "Long ability?"

Immediately afterwards, Hou Yi's left foot stomped lightly, but it was a move from the archery to change the cow across the mountain, knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, only to see a dazzling light rise from the ground, Bajie rushed off the ground, held up to the air, before Bajie responded, Hou Yi was another understatement to sweep the thousand troops, the right palm followed the wrist of the left arm and waved out, Zhu Bajie suddenly like a dead leaf in the wind, was destroyed by a huge force and instantly shook away, disappeared, only heard a wail in the void: "Master, Chang ......!"

It turned out that the matter of the Tiankeng battle against the heavenly court had already spread all over the world. Zhu Bajie heard that there was a great god among the generals of the Tiankeng, and his archery skills were superb, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, thinking that this person must be Hou Yi, and I don't know where he has been hiding all these years.

Because he couldn't rest assured, Zhu Bajie secretly came to the sinkhole many times to investigate, he searched for a long time, and found this laurel mountain located outside the sinkhole defense circle, he knew that Chang'e Houyi's residence was the world of laurel trees. When the two meet, there is no doubt that they must choose this place, which really made him guess correctly.

Zhu Bajie knew that Chang'e would definitely come to meet Hou Yi when he learned the information, and Hou Yi would definitely learn the truth of the year, and his life was in danger. He also found out that Chang'e was only able to leave the Moon Palace on the night of the full moon, on the fifteenth day of August every year, so he always paid attention to the movements of the Moon Palace, and he really caught him today.

The beginning of Bajie is indeed terrifying. Later, when I thought about it, my skills have increased dramatically over the years, and now it is not what it used to be, and the flame bow and ice arrow that I have cultivated are far above Hou Yi's back then, and they may be enough to compete with it. As long as he draws with Hou Yi in front of Chang'e, Hou Yi's myth in Chang'e's heart will be broken, and Chang'e may change her mind, besides, Hou Yi's current identity. It's just a bandit, and he is the messenger of the Pure Altar of the West Heaven, a person with status.

The judge may say that Zhu Bajie is so obscene. In fact, when Zhu Bajie was expelled from heaven and reincarnated in the underworld, the spiritual wisdom of the seven spirits was left behind by the imps of the underworld, and he mismatched others. Therefore, the contact with the three souls is stuck in ordinary people, and the eyes of the heart are indeed far less than they were back then.

Seeing this, Haotian couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Ling'er said: "It's a pity, it's hateful!", Yu'er smiled and answered: "Houyi's magic skills are admirable!"

Seeing that Hou Yi and Chang'e returned to Wen Wen, tender and sweet, the three of them were embarrassed to look at it anymore, so they quietly went home.

While the three of them were talking, they returned to the sinkhole platform, and happened to meet Hu Qing Binglan walking under the moon. Ling'er ran forward and said to Binglan, "Sister Binglan, what do you guess we saw tonight?"

Haotian wanted to stop it, but when he thought about the myth of Hou Yi Chang'e, it was not a secret, so he didn't speak.

Bing Lan asked curiously, "Ling'er, what did you see?"

"You don't believe it. Ling'er said.

Bing Lan smiled: "How do you know that we won't believe it if you don't say it?"

"We see Chang'e!" Ling'er said excitedly.

"Chang'e?" Bing Lan became interested when she heard it, Chang'e running to the moon is a household name. Hu Qing also stepped forward all of a sudden.

A few people walked into Haotian's cave, and when they met Tianmu Dao and Tubo were discussing inside, and after saying hello, Bing Lan said, "They met Chang'e!"

Tianmu Daoren smiled and said, "It must be with Hou Yi." ”

Several people looked at each other for a moment, and Bing Lan smiled: "The master is really like a god." ”

Ling'er asked curiously: "Zhu Bajie's nail rake is so fun, what is the origin?"

Bing Lan said: "Master, you must know in detail, tell us about it!"

Tianmu Daoren smiled and said, "Let's let Emperor Tubo tell you!"

Tu Bo smiled and said: "Ancient rumors, hearsay, not enough to rely on, and in front of Haotian, I will not open my mouth, right?"

When Ling'er and Yu'er heard this, they didn't want to say it, so the two of them wrapped around Tubo left and right, and said coquettishly: "No, the emperor is not allowed to be lazy, tell us about it!"

At this moment, Huo Sheng'er also flew in from outside, sat on Haotian's shoulder, and quietly watched the two girls smirk.

Tubo and Tianmu Daoren looked at each other and smiled, but they couldn't resist their hospitality, so they didn't shirk anymore, and came together one by one:

"If you want to talk about Zhu Bajie's nine-tooth nail rake, you have to talk about a person, the nine-tooth nail rake is made by him, also known as the "Shangbaoqin gold rake", which is personally tempered by him with the ancient god ice iron, and forged by the power of the five emperors of the five directions, the six dings and six armor gods, the weight is a number of treasures, and the handle is five thousand and forty-eight pounds. This person is one of the three Qings of the Heavenly Court, the Moral Heavenly Venerable, and the Taishang Laojun. ”

"According to legend, at the beginning of heaven and earth, there were four ancestors: Qing, Ling, Kong, and Ming, which were Hongjun Ancestor, Mixed Kun Ancestor, Nine Heavens Xuannu, and Lu Zhudao Jun. ”

Hearing this, Haotian couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, he and Huo Sheng'er glanced at each other, and thought in their hearts: "Yes, Lu Jian Daojun doesn't need to say it, it's the little sister Hongxia Girl, could it be that those three people are the other three green dragons who were assigned by himself to take charge of the Quartet back then?"

Seeing that everyone was concentrating, Haotian didn't speak and continued to listen quietly.

Emperor Tubo continued: "One of the four ancestors, Hongjun Ancestor, according to legend, was originally a ball of green gas in the chaos, and later turned into an earthworm, and finally transformed into a human, Hongjun Ancestor founded the Three Qing Religion, the Human Sect, the Explanation Sect and the Interception Sect, and later developed into Taoism and Confucianism respectively. The thought of the three families of Mo. Then he feathered into three, one gas into three Qing, the three Qings were Taiqing Taishang Laojun, Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Tongtian Sect Master is also known as Lingbao Daozun three people. ”

Haotian thought to himself: "Yes, Hongjun Ancestor is also like chaos, one body turns into three bodies, but after chaos turns into three bodies, the original body disappears temporarily, isn't the original body of Hongjun Ancestor not there?"

The three of them are collectively known as the Three Qings. Taiqing Taishang Laojun is in charge of teaching, representing Taoism, Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun is in charge of expounding teaching, representing Confucianism, and Shangqing Tongtian Sect is in charge of intercepting teaching, representing Mojia. ”

Haotian and Huo Sheng'er and the two girls didn't know much about this, while Bing Lan and Tianmu Dao were quite clear, and everyone was looking forward to the following.

"The Patriarch of the Mixed Kun, that is, the Ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp. Also known as the Buddha of Dingguang, also known as the Buddha of the past, he founded the Western religion. Of course, the current head of the teaching. It is the present Buddha that you all know, and it also has a deputy head of teaching, the future Buddha Maitreya Buddha. ”

"There is a legend that says that the eldest disciple of the Patriarch of Mixed Kun is introduced. It was the later Buddha of Rulai, the second disciple Zhun Ti, and the later Bodhi ancestor. These are legends. There are many different opinions. It's just that when the ancient Buddha was in charge of teaching, every qiē was natural, and now the Buddha is coming to the Buddha, it is a big fanfare, constantly secretly encroaching on the territory of the heavenly court, and the power is expanding rapidly. Among the gods and Buddhas who have cultivated the Buddha's door at this stage, many of them are Taoists under the Sanqing Sect, but they were recruited by Rulai, such as the Fuxian Zhenren in the "Yuxu Twelve Gate People" under the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun and Cihang Dao people, all defected to Rulai and left, and became the later Fuxian Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva and Guanyin Bodhisattva respectively. ”

Sanqing saw that Rulai was imposing, so he compromised with Rulai and reached an agreement to redivide the three islands of the nine continents and the heavenly realm into four continents, namely Dongsheng Shenzhou, Nandanbu Continent, West Niuhe Continent, and Beiju Luzhou. Dongsheng Shenzhou is composed of many overseas immortal mountains and immortal islands in the three islands of ten continents, and the southern Danbu Continent is the area of Lang China, which is the birthplace of Taoism, governed by the Sanqing, and the Dongsheng Shenzhou is inhabited by the Sanqing and a group of heavens and gods, and the three realms of ten thousand immortals. Later, the Sanqing Dynasty handed over both to the Jade Emperor to take care of, and he devoted himself to cultivating; Xiniu Hezhou in the west was originally the sphere of influence of Buddhism, with the Leiyin Temple of Tianzhu Linghu Mountain as the center, gathering thousands of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, King Kong, etc., under the jurisdiction of Buddhism itself; while Beiju Luzhou in the north was located in a barbaric and sparsely populated area, and there were also self-generated forces to dominate, and the world was peaceful for a period of time, but soon Buddhism violated the agreement and remained the same. ”

Haotian was puzzled for a while in his heart: "No, Huo Sheng'er once said that there are no such doctrines and sects in this heaven and earth, and they were all spread by the blue-clothed scholar after the sky was broken and humans appeared." ”

Huo Sheng'er felt the confusion in Haotian's heart, turned his head and smiled at him, Haotian suddenly realized, he patted his head, and said in his heart: "Tens of millions of years of time and space, all kinds of circulation, the authenticity is almost zero, why should I be serious, thousands of years ago, maybe it will be rumored to be ten thousand years ago." But it seems that the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has been going on for a long time, and if you do this, it is against the teachings, why?"

Tubo continued: "The people of Lu Zhudao are the essence of leaving the fire. Flying out of the Three Realms is not in the Five Elements. The Three Holy Emperors of the Fire Cloud are not in the court, and the Yao Chi and the Emperor of Heaven are ignored in the middle. Not in the Three Religions, not in the Land of Bliss. It is not under the control of the king, and it is not subject to the earth. Xiaoxiao is free to swim with me, and she is free to scatter the saints. Those who know also respect him as Lu Jian Daojun, and among the junior immortals, but those who hear it are insignificant."

Haotian smiled secretly in his heart: "Yes, at that time, where were the Three Holy Emperors and the Heavenly Emperor, let alone the King of the Difu, it seems that what was said was later." ”

"As for one of the other four ancestors, the Nine Heavens Xuannu, it is also rumored that it is Nuwa Niangniang, and legend has it that Nuwa created people to mend the sky, according to the appearance of the younger brother Lu Zhudao people, kneading clay figures, and incarnating into colorful stones to mend the sky, etc. ”

Huo Sheng'er suddenly spoke: "I know this, Nuwa came to this world with the blue-clothed scholar and others later, and they broke the sky at that time, of course, it can't be one of the four ancestors, it should be one of the four ancestors, hehe! ”

Tubo said with a jaw: "I forgot about it, the fire saint is a person who has experienced it, and what he said is true, Tubo has an axe here!"

Haotian hurriedly said: "Where is it, the legend of the day after tomorrow is far from the truth, and it is not easy to deal with it." ”

I heard Ling'er suddenly say: "Hey, what people are asking about is the origin of Zhu Bajie's nail rake, and Tubo has digressed for thousands of miles." ”

Tubo smiled: "Where is it, I haven't gotten to the point yet, it was just an introduction." ”

Ling'er said: "What a long introduction!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and Tubo said, "Don't worry, I'll answer you." At the beginning of the establishment of Taoism, Taishang Laojun indulged in two things all day long, one is enlightenment, which is evidenced by the Tao Te Ching, which can be described as a treasure in the world. One is alchemy, in order to seek the mysteries of nature, refine the secret treasure of cultivating immortals, and gain insight into the mysteries of mana. In secrecy, at first he didn't even bring a child, so he was locked in the house by himself, and after years and months, the fire was blazing, and the kettle was rising. After a long time, he found that the kettle needed to be stirred, the bottom of the furnace needed to be dig, and the elixir liquid that was refined had to be filled with something. ”

"Taishang Laojun is definitely a very smart person, otherwise how could he become the ancestor of Taoism? He refined a stick used to stir the juice elixir in the kettle, which was later lent to the Dragon King to make the Dinghai God Needle, which was taken away by Sun Wukong and turned into his wishful golden hoop stick. The Shangbao Qin gold rake of Bajie was refined by Taishang Laojun to remove the ashes from the bottom of the pot. Doesn't he still have a green ox mount? The cow has a stubborn temper, a troublesome temperament, and is difficult to control, so Lao Jun refined the world-famous King Kong Zhuo, which is actually used to wear the nose of the cow, and isn't Sun Wukong just the way of it? There is also the golden rope, which is also a rope that is refined for the cow, but it can bind people as desired, and I have figured it out thoroughly, haha. ”

Everyone suddenly remembered the six golden ropes in Tubo's hand. Tubo continued: "There are also jade net bottles and Yu Ding, in fact, they are all refined by Taishang Laojun to hold the elixir spiritual liquid, but later the jade net bottle was given to Guanyin, and Yu Ding was given to Dayu, all of which are treasures with boundless mana." ”

Everyone, my God, this Taishang Laojun is simply a weapons expert, and any thing that is randomly crumbled up to dig out ashes is a rare magic weapon in the world, which shows that its mana is so high that it is really unimaginable.

Ling'er asked: "Then Taishang Laojun is so powerful, is his mana comparable to that of the Western Heavenly Buddha?"

Tubo smiled: "It's not easy to judge if it's not comparable, but there is an allusion that is enough to explain the problem." ”

Haotian and Huo Sheng'er suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "What allusion?" Yu'er and Bing Lan also widened their eyes.

Tubo smiled slightly and said:

Once idle, Taishang Laojun and the Buddha of the West Heaven came to play, somehow the two bet, the two did not admit defeat to each other, Taishang Laojun said: "If you can seal one of my fingers, I will admit defeat; if you can't, you lose, you can't regret it." What do you think?".

The Buddha gladly agreed.

Taishang Laojun smiled and said, "Are you ready?"

The Buddha said calmly: "Just make a move!"

However, the voice did not fall, and I don't know how Taishang Laojun moved, and the Buddha's eyebrows have been heavily pointed by Taishang Laojun, leaving a red mark since then. In order to hide the embarrassment, since then, the Buddhist monks' eyebrows have become a little red, and it has become a standard makeup.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing. Haotian thought to himself, although it is a legend, it is enough to show that Taishang Laojun's mana is boundless. Haotian thought of his encounter in the eyes of heaven again, who would it be if the person behind the curtain was not Laojun? Aren't Qinglong and Baihu both Taishang Laojun's honor guards?

Today, Haotian's heart is not to mention how happy he is, he overheard the story of Emperor Tubo, and let himself figure out many questions, it seems that the other three green dragons must be Hongjun Ancestor, Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha, and Nine Heavens Xuannu. It's just that Hongjun Ancestor may have turned into three clones: Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun, and Lingbao Daozun. If so, that's great!

To find out what's next, listen to the next breakdown. (To be continued......)
