Chapter 80: Bodhi
Brocade robe (epic) (seal): No level requirements, defense + ??? special effects: when you die, the soul is not extinguished, you can be resurrected within a certain period of time, note: the soul is bound after the equipment, note: this equipment is in the seal, only the special effect is retained.
Nine-Ring Tin Staff (Epic) (Seal): No level requirements, attack + ???, special effects: can launch active effects, exempt targets below level 90 from attacks for 300 seconds, description: After equipping, the soul is bound, and this equipment is in the seal, only the special effects are retained.
Jiang Liu: "......".
Looking at the attributes of these two pieces of equipment, Jiang Liu's face was a little dark, these two pieces of equipment are similar to the Ming Wang Crown, they are both equipment that has no level requirements, that is, people of any level can use it.
It's just that this Buddha Gate will send the treasure, but you still have to seal the two pieces of equipment?
Epic-level equipment, the quality is even higher than the legendary level, if these two pieces of equipment are not sealed, Jiang Liu believes that it will definitely be much easier for him to fight monsters and upgrade along the way.
However, although he secretly complained in his heart, even if he did not have the blessing of attack and defense capabilities, fortunately, the seal was not thorough, and the special effects of these two pieces of equipment were at least reserved for himself.
Dressed in a brocade robe, he does not fall into reincarnation, and holds a nine-ring tin rod, which is not poisoned.
In terms of the special effects of these two pieces of equipment, it is not an exaggeration.
With the special effects of these two pieces of equipment retained, at least before reaching the West Heaven, if you fight monsters and upgrade by yourself, your own safety can be guaranteed.
After putting on these two pieces of equipment, Jiang Liu's whole person looked different.
Wearing the crown of the Ming king, holding a nine-ring tin staff, wearing a brocade robe, his appearance is handsome and young, his lips are red and his teeth are white, he looks solemn and luxurious, and he is handsome and chic, and he is a handsome young monk.
"Well, yes, it's very good......", looking at Jiang Liu's appearance, Li Shimin also had a satisfied look in his eyes, and bowed his head slightly.
Although these two pieces of equipment were sent to him by Guanyin Bodhisattva for an excuse, he deliberately wanted to buy these two treasures and give them to himself, and Li Shimin's sincere feelings were also real.
Therefore, after putting on the robe, Jiang Liu bowed to Li Shimin seriously: "Jiang Liu, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Calling himself a river, rather than a poor monk, these words are obviously from the bottom of his heart, not a polite appearance.
"You don't need to thank me, these two treasures are actually not the ...... I gave you", but, listening to Jiang Liu's thanks, Li Shimin shook his head slightly.
"Although I don't know what the Buddha's plan is, I know that you must have a very important role in this plan, otherwise, you would not have such a Buddha fate, and you would even be able to seek the manifestation of the Buddha."
"Originally, I heard that this treasure can avoid reincarnation and not be poisoned, and I wanted to pay for you to buy it, so even if these two treasures are given to you by me, these are the only things I can help you."
"But it's a pity that the man who sells robes and tin canes refuses to accept money, even so, even if these two treasures are given to you by the Buddha, it seems that all this is arranged by the Buddha in secret, who can have such a treasure in the mortal world, and moreover, it can be taken out and given away."
Li Shimin's words made Jiang Liu look at him in surprise, but he didn't expect that based on these recent events, he would be able to roughly deduce the truth about the westward journey.
Sure enough? To be able to become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, although Li Shimin is not said to be intelligent, at least he still has a sense of the overall situation that is beyond ordinary people.
That's right, the brocade robe and the nine-ring tin cane are not like the treasures of the mortal world, a leprosy monk sells them on the street, which is originally unreasonable, but such a baby is said to be for himself, and he doesn't take a penny, as long as he is not stupid, he can understand that there is a cat hidden in it.
"In any case, I still want to thank Your Majesty for your kindness!", put his palms together and bowed, Jiang Liu said sincerely.
"Okay, you go, although I am the emperor of the people, after all, I care about the people, I can't help you much, I am in the overall situation, and I will rely on you in the future", waved his hand, Li Shimin also said helplessly.
Li Shimin helped, and even stood up to block the dragon descending Arhat, but what was the final result? However, the Tang Dynasty suffered a locust plague, and hundreds of people suffered, so he had to bow his head and swallow locusts alive, and he and Jiang Liu changed from a vague relationship between Weng and his son-in-law to a righteous brother, so that he was able to break the situation.
He knows very well that in this overall situation, even if he wants to help, he is more than willing to help.
Jiang Chuan left the palace in turn, but he took one last look back, and sighed in his heart, Li Shimin's intentions, Jiang Liu clearly felt it, he couldn't help, and there was nothing he could do.
Don't say that he is a mortal, even if he is a dignified dragon king, in this game, don't you also say that you will die? You can't even protect yourself.
The next day, the whole Chang'an City was extremely lively, countless people, not only in Chang'an City, but also many people, dared to come to Chang'an City thousands of miles away to watch the grand occasion of the water and land conference.
In recent days, Chang'an City has been extremely lively, and in just a few months, one after another has shaken the world.
On the incense ceremony, Master Xuanzang lit twelve incense scars and spread them all over the world.
The two demon kings compete.
Then Master Xuanzang and Li Chunfeng discussed, a poem that can be called a Buddhist treasure.
Master Xuanzang swore to the sky again to marry Princess Gaoyang.
The Tang Emperor held a ceremony to pray for heaven and swallow locusts alive to eliminate the locust plague.
And then to the apparition of the Buddha.
A dragon head falls from the sky.
Tang Emperor Li Shimin came back from the dead.
Finally, today's land and water conference.
......
A rare scene in decades, in just a few months, Chang'an City appeared in a bunch, and most of the events were related to Master Xuanzang.
The incomparably grand scene, 1,200 monks held a land and water conference, hundreds of people watched, such a scene, than when Li Shimin prayed for heaven ceremony, it was much more lively.
Jiang Liu held a nine-ring tin rod in his hand, wore a brocade robe, and looked solemn, walked step by step to the platform of the water and land puja, and then took out a heart sutra from his arms.
When contemplating the bodhisattva of self-reliance, when he walks in the deep prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and he overcomes all suffering......
The water and land puja is just a formality, and Jiang Liu did not waste time to recite the scriptures, so it is better to meditate and practice for a while if you have this time, so you are just reading the scriptures.
Listening to the Jiang Liu on the stage, he was just holding the "Heart Sutra" and reciting, and he did not have his own perception and explanation of the Dharma, not only the 1,200 monks looked at each other, but even the surrounding people were also discussing.
Today's water and land puja, Xuanzang holy monk on Buddhism, everyone originally wanted to hear his perception and insights on Buddhism, but he was holding a copy of the "Heart Sutra" reading?
What's going on?
"Hahaha, is this the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty? This kind of Dharma meeting is actually just reciting Buddhist scriptures? without any opinion of his own?", at this moment, suddenly a loud laugh sounded, and a leprosy monk suddenly jumped out laughing, pointing to the river on the stage and shouting.
"Who dares to make trouble?", seeing the leprosy monk jump out, several guards next to him were shocked, shouted in a low voice, and stepped forward to arrest him.
"So, what do you think is your own opinion?", looking at the monk who jumped out, Jiang Liu also knew the identity of the other party, and got up and asked.
"I have listened to your poem without phase, the body is a Bodhi tree, the heart is a mirror platform, always wipe diligently, do not make dust, this Buddha poem won my Dharma Samadhi, today I listened to you talk about the Buddha, I thought there was a more subtle Zen language, but I didn't expect it, I was disappointed", the leprosy monk shook his head, disappointed and asked.
"Do you want to see my perception of the Dharma before studying the scriptures, and test my current attitude towards the Buddha?" Hearing the words of this leper monk, Jiang Liu was vigilant in his heart, and probably understood what the other party meant.
"Amitabha, I wrote a poem of "Wuxiang" that day, and today I will make another poem of Buddhism, called "Bodhi", and give it to the people of the world for appreciation."
Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform......
