The gentle voice kept ringing in everyone's ears, and the young man in a moon-white monk's robe had no stage fright at all, and clearly stated his Tao and his own Dharma in front of everyone. However, although the young man's voice was gentle, it was like thunder in the ears of the people in the Buddhist sect - they were shocked by the various thoughts of the golden cicada, and there were only four words in their minds - deviant!

The fate of all living beings is no longer controlled by the Heavenly Dao, and every life can choose its own destiny in order to achieve true Pudu.

This kind of Buddhism is not a deviance, what else can it be?

It's just that Jin Chanzi is a disciple of Shakyamuni after all, so none of the Buddhas spoke, they all looked at Shakyamuni.

On the golden lotus platform, Shakyamuni's face sank like water, without the slightest expression, making it impossible to see his inner thoughts.

After a long time, the voice of the golden cicada finally stopped. There was silence throughout the Obon. At this time, even those great powers who did not have any study of the Dharma looked at Shakyamuni and the Golden Cicada with great interest—no matter whether they were proficient or not, the Dharma of Shakyamuni and the Dharma of the Golden Chanda, they could still realize the difference in the Tao contained in it. They wanted to see how Shakyamuni would react in plain sight.

Looking deeply at the calm expression of the golden cicada, Shakyamuni finally spoke: "You're done?"

Nodding, Jin Chanzi said, "Yes." ”

"Do you think sentient beings can control their own destiny?"

Jin Chanzi nodded again: "Yes." ”

"Then do you think Heavenly Dao will allow the trajectory of fate to get out of control?"

This time, Jin Chanzi finally said a few more words: "Man will conquer the sky." ”

Looking at the golden cicada who did not change his mind in the slightest, Shakyamuni said in a deep voice: "Why do you think so?"

Jin Chanzi was speechless, and after a long time, he said flatly: "The disciple just thinks so." ”

Taking a deep breath, Shakyamuni said heavily: "Do you think so? Just because you think so, you want to deny the teachings of my Buddhism? You have forgotten what your teacher has taught you for so many years? You insist on embarking on such a road of no return?"

Jin Cicada didn't speak, but, sometimes, silence is the best objection.

Looking at the stubborn young man in front of him, Shakyamuni laughed angrily: "Good! good! good! worthy of being my good disciple! In that case, would you like to gamble with me?"

Glancing at Shakyamuni in surprise, Jin Chanzi said, "I don't know what the teacher wants to bet on with his disciple?"

At this time, Shakyamuni had already recovered his appearance of the ancient well without waves: "Just bet on your way." Since you feel that your Tao is right, you feel that man will conquer the heavens, and you feel that sentient beings can get out of the control of the Heavenly Dao, you think that in this way can you achieve true Pudu. Then, give you a chance for the teacher. Ten reincarnations, for the teacher to give you ten chances, you, do for the teacher to see. If you prove that you are right, then the position of the master of the Buddha will be handed over to you. Dharma, respect you. The whole Buddhism will do its best to support you. But if you can't prove that you're right, then you just give up your unrealistic ideas and practice the mysteries of my Buddhism. Can you say yes?"

After being silent for a long time, Jin Chanzi finally calmly performed a Buddha salute to Shakyamuni: "My Buddha is compassionate." The disciple agreed. ”

The Obon festival is over.

The Bon Festival, which was supposed to show the strength of Buddhism, almost became a farce because of Shakyamuni's bet with the golden cicada.

After the Obon festival, the golden cicada was sent to the reincarnation by Shakyamuni to prove that he was right with the reincarnation of the 10th life. Guanyin left Lingshan and opened his own new dojo in the South China Sea, showing his support for the golden cicada. Jizo also left Lingshan to practice his own way of purification.

At the same time, there were also a group of Buddhists who were touched by the Tao of the Golden Cicada and chose to leave Lingshan and seek Pudu.

And with this gambling contract, as well as some unknown trends and transactions behind the gambling contract, a storm swept the Three Realms, and countless people set their eyes on the golden cicada.

Elysium.

This is a small world opened up by the introduction and quasi-mention. After Shakyamuni became the master of the Buddha, in order to prevent Shakyamuni from feeling that the two of them were suspicious of dominating the master, he left Lingshan and retreated in Elysium all year round. Although Elysium is connected to the Spirit Mountain, the two of them almost never appear on the Spirit Mountain.

After the end of the Obon Festival, all kinds of news spread throughout the Three Realms, and the two of them naturally did not know about it.

In Elysium, Zhun Ti slowly opened his eyes: "Senior brother, what do you think about this matter?"

Hearing the voice, the guide around Zhun Ti also slowly woke up from his meditation, and said lightly: "What does junior brother mean?"

Although I don't understand why I asked knowingly, Zhun Ti still said: "Naturally, it's a matter of the golden cicada." Jin Cicada, Guanyin, and even Jizo, these three people are all amazing and beautiful people in my Buddhism. In addition, there are also a group of Buddhist disciples who are also moved by the Tao of the Golden Cicada. Therefore, I am afraid that this matter will not be handled well, and the great prosperity of my Buddhism will be blocked. Moreover, if our Buddhism is divided because of this, then the painstaking efforts of you and me to hand over the position of Buddha to Shakyamuni for the sake of Buddhism will be in vain. ”

Hearing Zhun Ti say this, he smiled slightly: "Senior brother is too worried." If Jin Chanzi wants to prove that he is right, then he is bound to preach his own way in this tenth reincarnation, gain the recognition of more people, and at the same time improve his own way and prove his own way. However, no matter how different the golden cicada's way is, he is still a member of my Buddhist sect, and what he preaches is the Dharma after all. As long as it is Dharma, whether it is consistent with traditional Buddhism or not, then it is always the influence of our Buddhism that spreads and expands. Isn't it? That's why the golden shovel is the one Shakyamuni chose to preach for my Buddhism!"

Hearing this, Zhun Ti was stunned, and then sighed: "Senior brother is high, and senior brother is ashamed." ”

With a faint smile, he continued: "Senior brother doesn't have to be like this. It's not for my brother's opinion, it's just that my brother and sister are planning for my Buddhist affairs all day long, so I didn't think of so much. However, there is a preacher, but there is no shortage of protectors. I don't know how you're doing, junior brother?"

Hearing the guide ask about the person who protects the path, Zhun Ti smiled faintly: "Senior brother, don't worry, my Bodhi Tree incarnation has been watching it personally, and nothing will happen." ”

"That's good. ”
