According to Yaoshan and others, the passage that Guanyin Bodhisattva said that day is the key. In order to relieve the plight of Yao Shan and others, we first need to hear this scripture. And they can't remember, then, there are just a few ways.

One is to perceive it directly from the end of its seventh consciousness by virtue of its mana, as mentioned above, and the other is to cast spells such as tracing time in legends. These two methods, it seems that no one in the world has this ability, and these are the so-called spells that the immortal Buddha can cast.

Then, if someone in the lotus pond reaches a certain level of self-cultivation, such as cultivating the Dharma to the realm of a real person, then perhaps it is natural for him to listen to this passage again in concentration, contemplating his own important causes in the past and future. However, there are defects in the human body of Yao Shan and others, and they can't be unable to cultivate at all, or they can say that they are unable to cultivate from time to time, and they advance and retreat day and night. This method also does not work.

Wu Xuan has an intuition in his heart, and whether he can solve this problem has a lot to do with his search for the law in the East China Sea. And it can also relieve the plight of Yao Shan and others. Yes, I didn't want to give up, couldn't sleep at night, and sat quietly in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva Buddha in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, thinking hard.

Suddenly, Wuxu's eyes lit up, and he took a stone from outside the hall, held it up with both hands, and slowly sent it towards the incomplete place at the bottom of the net bottle above. I saw that the stone continued to get smaller under the power of Wuxu's palm, and finally turned into a small arrow-shaped particle, embedded in the gap of the net bottle.

I saw a flash of red light in mid-air, raising a puff of fine dust, and I looked at it with a clear look, and the net bottle was still incomplete. "Sure enough," Wu said secretly in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just carefully recalled the red light just now, and fell into deep thought.

That catastrophe was originally caused by the Baotuo Guanyin Temple, although the whole temple later suffered retribution and died under the butcher's knife of the Yuan army, the cause and effect of this monstrous killing was to fall on the Guanyin Bodhisattva, after all, Putuo Mountain is the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

After a moment, Wu Xuan closed his eyes and muttered to himself, "Could it be a chapter from the Nirvana Sutra? Or a chapter from the Jizo Bodhisattva Sutra? ”

was deliberating repeatedly, when suddenly there was a person behind him, who said sarcastically, "If it's so simple to do a Dharma service, you still need to be nagged here by a monk?"

Wuxu slowly turned his head, but saw a big man with a tiger's back and a beard, wearing short-sleeved shorts, walked over, sat on a futon next to him, stretched out his hairy right hand, put a turquoise seven-inch harpoon on the incense case, took out a wine jug, poured it into his mouth sharply, and then turned his head to Wuxu and said, "For more than 100 years, Lao Tzu has done Buddhist things here many times!

Wuxu was looking at this man, and when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, pointed to the lotus pond outside the hall, and asked, "You are also from the lotus pond?"

The man shook his shoulders and snorted, "Lao Tzu is not a human, Lao Tzu is a monster!" obviously acquiesced to coming from the lotus pond, but he was quite resentful in his heart.

Wuxu was not angry, "Whether it is a human or a demon, I can't imagine that you can actually cultivate to the eighth layer of mortal dust, I don't know how you cultivate, why don't you teach Yaoshan and others together?"

"Lao Tzu is the blood of an ancient beast, a tiger's head octopus. At the beginning, Guanyin's pure water fell into the lotus pond, and the blood veins in the body were awakened, so that he could cultivate to the point where he is now. The man poured another sip of wine, and the strong smell of wine turned into a white gas in the main hall.

Wu Xuan waved his hand, brought a gust of palm wind, and fanned out these wines, "Daxiong Treasure Hall, in front of the Bodhisattva's seat, how can you be so * shape?" Then the words changed, "You are an ancient beast tiger head octopus, and you have cultivated for decades, and you have entered the real human level, when the time comes, you can meditate in meditation, maybe you will remember the scripture that the Bodhisattva recited at the beginning, and Yao Shan and the others can regain their free body, and maybe they can also practice the Tao." ”

When the man heard this, he laughed, and the laughter became louder and louder, so that the prayer flags in the hall danced, and his expression looked extremely hideous under the flickering incense. That Yaoshan and the others seemed to have known about the arrival of this man, and none of them showed up.

The man, after laughing for a while, said hoarsely, "So that the master knows that it only took twenty years for Hu to awaken his bloodline and turn into a human form since that day, and he has the current eight-layer cultivation." But after that, like everyone else, no matter how hard they practice, their bodies are like wooden barrels full of water, and no matter how much water is poured, there is only so much. Speaking of this, he suddenly said hatefully, "What a fucking evil sect, no matter how you cultivate, what kind of elixir you eat, this body is like a funnel! It's like having a gastrointestinal disease, let you eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and after a while, you will run to the thatched house and pull it into the dung pit!"

Wuxu was silent for a moment, then clasped his palms together and said, "I don't know if Hu Daoyou has thought about it, this is not necessarily the Bodhisattva's secret means to force you to stay in this Baotuo Guanyin Temple." If you think about it, in an instant, all the beings in the lotus pond have turned into human forms, and it has not been more than two hundred years now. During this period, I was unable to practice. However, if we want to follow the normal path, we will have to open our minds, cultivate, and transform into shapes, and it will take five or six hundred years, to say the least, right? Not to mention that during this period, there will be many calamities, and nine deaths and one life. If you have taken on the human body and heard the Dharma, all you have paid is less than two hundred years of protection, so why should you sigh so much and resent?"

This man surnamed Hu, when he heard Wuxu's explanation, his face eased, but he showed a trace of sadness, turned to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and bowed with his palms together, "The Bodhisattva is above, we are grateful for the grace of the Bodhisattva's transformation, and we should guard the Bodhisattva's dojo, but now we can't cultivate, and we can't remember that scripture, and my heart is uneasy and hesitant." I also hope that the Bodhisattva will have mercy and give a lecture or two. After saying that, he actually cried bitterly.

After a while, Yao Shan and the others also walked into the Daxiong Treasure Hall one after another, knelt on the futon, their faces were full of sorrow, and they clasped their palms together and said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, your old man is merciful and compassionate, and please save me." ”

Suddenly, in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, a dry lotus pond sentient beings, kneeling on the futon, shouted grievances to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and became a pot of porridge.

Suddenly, the tiger head octopus surnamed Hu, who cultivated the highest and had the greatest resentment, jumped up from the ground and shouted at Guanyin Bodhisattva, "What kind of scripture is it?! How can you believe in it and repair the pure bottle?" After speaking, he turned into a tiger head fish body, and the eight claws danced in the air, and the top two sharp claws on the left and right sides gently closed together, grabbed the green harpoon placed on the incense table, and then flew up and stabbed towards the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the sky.

Seeing this, Wuxu hurriedly flew in front of the tiger-headed octopus, and saw that the three sharp thorns of the harpoon flashed with green and faint cold light, and he was about to go to the door of his head, habitually pinched a handprint, and wanted to sacrifice the blue sea pearls, only to find that the string of blue sea pearls was motionless on the wrist of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the mural, and in a hurry, the body of divine consciousness picked up the conch enshrined on the incense table in front of the mural last night, sent it outside, and blocked it.

Listen, click, and the longest sharp thorn in the middle of the harpoon snapped into the small hole of the conch. The conch spun automatically, concollaborating the harpoon inch by inch, and in a few moments, the harpoon was completely devoured.

The tiger-headed octopus, when the harpoon pierced into the conch, was shocked back to the ground. At this moment, seeing that the harpoon was destroyed by the conch in Wuxu's hand, he was angry, waved his claws again, rose into the air, and pounced towards Wuxu.

I saw that at the small hole of the conch, a white light suddenly shot out and hit it. The tiger-headed octopus, as it fell to the ground, screamed and screamed, and its form kept changing, and when it rolled to the ground, it had changed back into a human form.

The tiger-headed octopus, annoyed and unaware of it, a carp stood upright, and was about to fly into the air, and as soon as it left the ground, it shook and fell to the ground again.

Wuxu looked at this conch and said secretly in his heart, "Could it be that the person I met last night was really the incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva?"

Just thinking about it, he suddenly saw the tiger head octopus convulsing on the ground, and it seemed to be very scared and uncomfortable.

Wu Xuan couldn't bear it in his heart, so he said to Yao Shan and the others who were stunned on the side, "Quickly help him up, there is something to discuss." ”

Yaoshan and the others hurriedly walked over, and helped the black-faced Hu Mou, who was full of tears, up. I only heard that Hu Mou looked at Yaoshan and the others, and suddenly howled and cried, "My skills are all lost, and the power of the blood veins in my body is also being lost, and I can't feel it!"

Yaoshan and the others were shocked, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy to Wuxu who was standing in the air.

Wu was shocked in his heart, but he knew that it was difficult to explain, and his divine consciousness and physical body looked at the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the murals of the Dharma Realm and in this hall respectively. Guanyin Bodhisattva is still wonderful and solemn.

One was angry, threw the conch to the people below, and said, "This is the conch of Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it has nothing to do with the little monk." ”

Yao Shan and the others held the weak and depressed tiger-headed octopus, knelt down to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and kowtowed.

Wuxu watched for a while, and saw that Guanyin Bodhisattva still did not appear, so he also fell to the ground, his divine consciousness was in the Dharma realm, and his physical body was in the main hall, and he chanted to Guanyin Bodhisattva with his palms together:

"All sentient beings and the like: oviparous, viviparous, wet, incarnated, colored, colorless, thoughtless, thoughtless, non-thoughtless, and non-thoughtless, I cause them to perish in nirvana. If it is the destruction of immeasurable and countless boundless sentient beings, there are no sentient beings who have attained extinction. If a bodhisattva has the appearance of self, the appearance of people, the appearance of sentient beings, and the appearance of a long-lived being, he is not a bodhisattva. ”

Wuxu recited this passage in the "Diamond Sutra", but it was a faint reminder to Guanyin Bodhisattva that he should transform sentient beings without phase, and also with a trace of dissatisfaction. Among them, there is no residual nirvana, corresponding to the lotus pond sentient beings who are missing at the moment, and there is no "self-appearance, human appearance, sentient beings' appearance, and longevity appearance", but it is Wuxu who faintly blames Guanyin Bodhisattva for not imposing difficult conditions and forcing everyone to stay in Baotuo Guanyin Temple.

After Wuxu finished reciting this scripture, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva in the murals of the Dharma Realm and in the main hall, looking at him, his lips moved slightly, and he recited the scripture he had just recited.

Suddenly, in the main hall, there were countless flowers falling, countless strange fragrances coming to the nose, countless brilliance disillusioned, and countless bodhisattvas, celestial beings, and even assuras standing with their palms together in the void, with a solemn appearance.

The man surnamed Hu and Yao Shan and others suddenly shouted, "This is the scripture.。。! Hurriedly kowtowed to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, then stood up and said to Wuxu, "Master, it is this scripture that the Bodhisattva recited that day!"

At this time, another voice sounded in the main hall, "Enlightenment, you may be able to have faith in this chapter, and take it as a reality, be held and recited, believe in it, mend the pure bottle, and even speak to the people?"

Suddenly, the man surnamed Hu and Yao Shan and others brushed towards themselves. On that day, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva once said that if someone hears about this scripture, what can they do, then they can truly be free.

Wuxu stood there, looking at the poor Yaoshan and the others, whose divine consciousness was in the Dharma Realm, and asked the mural, "Dare to ask the Bodhisattva, how can I repair the purification bottle?"

In the mural of the Dharma Realm Buddha Hall, a voice came, "Since you call me a Bodhisattva, why do you think of the Bodhisattva as so utilitarian? Could it be that the net bottle is really broken and needs to be repaired?"

Wuxu was silent for a moment, and his body replied in front of Yaoshan and others in the main hall, "The little monk doesn't dare, and I hope that the Bodhisattva will teach." ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva replied in the realm of enlightenment, "On that day, the monks of Baotuo Guanyin Temple were resentful, which led to boundless killing and harming others and themselves. I couldn't bear to let the Putuo Mountain Dojo be abandoned, and it happened that the sentient beings in the lotus pond were untouched by this cause and effect, so they agreed with them to take on human form and take care of the temple until someone who was destined to come. ”

The body of Wuxu Divine Consciousness asked incomprehensibly in the Dharma Realm, "The monks of the Baotuo Guanyin Temple provoked cause and effect, why did the purple bamboo forest, refuse to go to the Guanyin Temple, and even those Southern Song courtiers who fled to the island and became monks and nuns, did not take action to support the Bodhisattva that day?"

There was a silence, and the ethereal voice of Guanyin Bodhisattva sounded again, "The world is a filthy place. Do you think that the matter of that year, the purple bamboo forest, refused to go to the Guanyin Temple, and did not participate?"

Immediately, pictures appeared in the air of the Dharma Realm Buddha Hall like a dragon on a horse. A group of people boarded a boat to cross the sea and came to Putuo Island. Temples were built. The same monks in monk's robes, in the fields, orchards, and clear springs, accusing each other and arguing constantly. The three hosts of Baotuo Guanyin Temple, Zizhu Forest, and those who refused to go to Guanyin Temple, whispered under the lamp...

Wu Xuan was silent, and after a long while, he asked, "I don't know how to deal with this matter?"

In the Dharma Realm, Guanyin Bodhisattva has a solemn appearance and a compassionate face, "I have also had such a catastrophe in my dojo. It is to clean the bottle and show it to all beings. And exert great mana to turn the sentient beings in the lotus pond into human form, hoping that they will take care of the dojo for future generations. But he didn't want to, after he turned into a human form, less than a hundred years, because he couldn't cultivate and couldn't remember the scriptures, he felt resentment. Now, since you have come here and asked each other, are you willing to take on this cause and effect and recite the Putuo Dojo?" Subsequently, the method of solving the suffering of all beings in the lotus pond was transmitted.

At the same time, in the main hall, Guanyin Bodhisattva, who was standing on top of the fish, suddenly moved, flew into the air, and said to the beings in the lotus pond, "On that day, I agreed with you that if the people of future generations can hear and accept this sutra, and even believe in it, repair the pure bottle, and give a speech for you, you will not need to take care of this temple and leave on your own." Now that this man has arrived, you can share it with him. ”

Yao Shan and the others bowed again, and then begged in unison for enlightenment.

Wu Xuan was stunned, and subconsciously followed the Dharma taught by Guanyin Bodhisattva, and entered the mandala Dharma realm, and urged with all his might, and on the right side of the Buddha hall in the Dharma realm, the mural depicting the words of the World Venerable in the Sawei Kingdom Tree to the Garden of Solitude and the Great Bhikshus moved.

One by one, the bhikshus and nuns flew out of the Dharma realm, and around the lotus pond beings such as the man surnamed Hu and Yao Shan, they recited that passage again, and their voices were loud or small, and their sounds were sad or joyful.

The bhikshus and nuns, after reciting the sutra three times, turned around and flew to the broken part of the pure bottle, turned into a speck of dust, and landed on the broken part of the pure bottle held by Avalokiteshvara in the great hall.

Subsequently, in the net bottle, water droplets suddenly gushed out and flew into the bodies of the man surnamed Hu and Yaoshan and others. Plumes of black smoke rose from each of them.

When Wuxu stood there, he heard everyone shout in surprise,

"How do you feel that I can practice and my body is changing?"

"yes? I feel that way, too!"

"Finally I don't have to stay here!"

"We're finally liberated!"

One by one, they cheered and jumped there, their eyebrows fluttered, they bowed to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and bowed to Wuxu with their palms, and then ran out of the hall with a roar, and went out of the temple and threw themselves into the sea in the night.

In an instant, in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, only Wuxu was left.

Wuxu looked at the empty surroundings, then looked at the flickering incense candles on the incense table, and finally looked up at Guanyin Bodhisattva with a compassionate face, recalled that scripture, and suddenly understood the meaning, and wept sadly.

That's right

Once graced into a human form, he was cared for and imprisoned for a hundred years.

There is no phase to give to the Bodhisattva, and suddenly understand the interest and tears.
