Chapter Twenty-Three: The Controversy Between Buddhism and the Way of Buddhism Begins to Emerge

It is said that at the millennium orchid bon meeting of the West Tianling Mountain, immortals and Buddhas from all walks of life gathered in the Western Bliss Pure Land Silly World to discuss the Tao, and the golden cicada asked Rulai, and finally because he failed to understand the Dharma, he was cut off by the Buddha for a thousand years, and entered the reincarnation to reincarnate and re-cultivate the tenth life, so as to realize the true meaning of the Dharma, and then correct the fruit. Soon, the Orchid Bon Festival has come to an end, and all the immortals from all walks of life who went to the meeting have also dispersed and returned to their respective immortal mansions. Not to mention.

The wind was blowing wildly, with pieces of white snowflakes falling from the sky, the surroundings were white, the silence was incomparable, the palm-like mountain of the Five Elements Mountain was covered with snow, the sparse grass and trees on the mountain wall had withered, and were completely covered by the cold snowflakes, only a cold-resistant old pine stood stubbornly there, although it was covered by snowflakes, but you could still see a little emerald green in the gap. Wukong, who was suppressed at the bottom of the mountain, looked at the vast land in front of him with his eyes open, his eyes were a little confused, but he was also very determined, just like the old pine standing on the mountain wall, as stubborn.

The snowflakes falling from the sky fell on his head and exposed arms, dyeing his golden hairs into a snow-white color, but he didn't bow his head, didn't even blink his eyes, but there was a faint smile on his face, which was a kind of freedom and relief. Unconsciously, four hundred years have passed since spring and autumn, and Wukong has seen how many flowers bloom and fall, the grass and trees wither, and the birds on the trees not far away have changed generations of children and grandchildren, even he himself can't remember clearly, so he is used to it.

In the first two hundred years of the four hundred years, the Bull Demon King and others also came to the Five Elements Mountain, but only the six-eared macaque did not come, Wukong knew that there must be a variable, he had asked the Bull Demon King several times what happened, but the Bull Demon King refused to say whether he was alive or dead, Wukong was suppressed by the Five Elements Mountain and the body of the original god, and the slightest spell could not be cast, and finally had to give up, and then a few people did not come, maybe something happened, after all, the demon is careful, and if he is not careful, he may end up with a painting cake, or he doesn't want to see Wukong look depressed now。 But no matter what, Goku is still Goku, and that's it.

In the long river of time, a hundred years of time is only as thin as mud and sand, insignificant. A hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. When Li Shimin of the Tang Kingdom ruled the world, it was the time when the national fortune was strong. The golden cicada was relegated to the reincarnation of the mortal world by Shakyamuni Nyorai, and every life is to comprehend the mysteries of the Dharma, and now it should be the last life. In this life, he was reincarnated into a family in the Tang Dynasty, and his family suffered a catastrophe, but he was rescued by the old monk of the Jinshan Temple. Since childhood, he has been intelligent, and his comprehension of Buddhism is also very high, and he is also a famous virtuous monk in the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

However, it was said that in the Western Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, Sakyamuni sat on the lotus platform ** after he came to the end, suddenly pinched his fingers, and was overjoyed in his heart, and smiled at the disciples: "Amitabha! The reincarnation of the golden cicada is now the tenth life, and now the opportunity has come, when my Buddhism is flourishing! Guanyin Shi Li said: "What is the matter with the master calling the disciple?" Rulai said: "Guanzi Bodhisattva, the golden cicada reincarnated for ten lives, but you need to go to the enlightenment, teach him to cultivate the mind through tribulations, and come to my Daleiyin Temple to get my Mahayana Sanzang Sutra, so that I can promote my Buddhism and spread my great teachings, and educate the world, which is really a great merit!" Guanyin said: "In this way, the disciple is willing to go." ”

Rulai smiled and said: "Good! good!" After that, he raised his hand, and a nine-ring tin staff appeared in the air, a brocade robe, and three diamond circles fell into the hands of Guanyin, Guanyin looked down, but saw that the nine-ring tin staff was cast by gold and put golden light throughout, and the brocade robe was woven with silk for thousands of years, inlaid with various jewels, and the diamond circle was engraved with extremely fine runes, which was extremely mysterious. I have to say that this Sakyamuni is worthy of being a Duobao Taoist who intercepted the religion in the past, and it is indeed a lot of treasures.

Rulai said: "You can wear this brocade robe and nine-ring tin staff with the golden cicada, and these three vajra rings can help you subdue the demons." He also used the three vajra circles, and the mantra was secretly transmitted to Guanyin. Guanyin immediately drove the clouds towards the Nether Realm Nanzhan Buzhou. Zhun Ti Zhi, who was in retreat, had a smile on his face and closed his eyes.

Thirty-three days later, in the Tushi Palace, after a thousand years, the Taoist Sanqing gathered in one place to discuss. The Tongtian Sect Master said angrily: "This treasure is really getting more and more unpopular, and he actually wants to take advantage of the westward journey to spread Buddhism to Nanzhan Buzhou, compete with my Taoism for the power of incense, and move the foundation of my Taoism, I really don't know how thick the sky is, hum!"

Yuan Shi Tianzun said: "Senior brother doesn't have to be like this, everything has its own number of days, although the golden cicada was reincarnated in ten lifetimes, with merit, but this westward road will not let him go too easy, there must be an obstacle to show that his Buddhist Buddhism is profound, and if you come to suppress the stone monkey Sun Wukong at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain without killing him with my Taoist method, it is to teach the Monkey King to protect the golden cicada to go west, and to include him under the door, it is a matter of killing two birds with one stone." We all know that although the number of days is clear, there is still a trace of variable, presumably this variable should be on the Monkey King. The Tongtian Sect Master nodded silently.

In the end, people are not as good as heaven, that Shakyamuni Rulai thought that his magic was profound, so he wanted to raise the bar with the saint, but he didn't expect all his calculations, Yuan Shi Tianzun knew everything about it, Shakyamuni Rulai knew about it, I am afraid that he even had the heart to pump his mouth, let alone calculate.

Taishang Laojun said with a smile: "Two junior brothers, everything has its own number of days, and we will know it."

If you want to compete with my Taoism, then we only need to see how the number of days is, if Buddhism is in vogue, it is also the number of days, we have to follow the day, force not to ask, to watch its movements, when the time comes, everything has its own care. After hearing this, Yuan Shi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master both laughed, looked at Taishang Laojun, and said, "What Senior Brother said is very good!" The three of them discussed for a while, and Yuan Shi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master each went back to the dojo, and Taishang Laojun also closed his eyes and meditated, not mentioning.

But said that the Guanzi Bodhisattva resigned from Sakyamuni Rulai, and took the Muzha walker to the Nanzhan Continent, and the people who saw the Nanzhan Continent along the way were all entangled in the red dust, and the suffering was also caused by it, and it was also from it, or it was a song all day long, and it was a waste of time, or it was intriguing, or it was deceitful, or it was sad all day long, and it was at a loss, Guanyin couldn't help but shake it gently, and sighed in his heart: " All sentient beings have their own lives, and all sentient beings are suffering, so when the Mahayana Sutra of the Buddha is transmitted to the Nanzhan Buzhou, and all sentient beings are transformed, I hope that the people of the world can hear the sound of the Buddha and liberate themselves from the sea of red dust and suffering.

It didn't take long to arrive at the border of the Tang Kingdom, but I saw that a mountain peak in front of me was standing upright, its shape was like a palm, five fingers were straight into the sky, and the mountain was faintly filled with five-colored divine light, but this five-colored divine light had to be a person with high mana, so that it could be seen that if ordinary mortals looked at it, except for the shape was a little strange, the others were no different from ordinary peaks. Guanyin turned his head and asked Mu Zha Walker, "Where is that place?" Mu Zha Walker said: "Back to the Bodhisattva, that place is the place where the Buddha suppressed the Monkey King of the Monkey King, called the Five Elements Mountain. ”

After hearing this, Guanyin couldn't help sneering in her heart, driving the clouds to the front of the Five Elements Mountain, looking down at Wukong who was covered by some weeds, that look was like looking at an ant, extremely indifferent, the corners of her mouth hooked a contemptuous smile, and said lightly: "Sun Wukong, do you recognize me?" Wukong stretched out his hand to remove some weeds, raised his eyes to look directly at Guanyin, and sneered: "Recognize, aren't you Guanyin of the South China Sea, why, don't you chant the scriptures in the South China Sea Pu Yan Rock, and don't listen to the Dharma at the place where you come, but what are you doing in this Wuzhi Mountain?"

The eyes were full of unruliness and disdain for Guanyin's lofty and overlooking posture, Guanyin saw Wukong looking at her with such eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly angry in her heart, who is Guanyin?

Although Guanyin was angry in his heart, he didn't care about his face as a bodhisattva, and he still smiled: "Sun Wukong, you have been under this Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, and now when you get rid of the calamity, I have come to point out a clear path for you, and when you succeed, you can achieve bliss and achieve positive results, are you willing to listen?" Wukong sneered: "Hehe! No wonder it came, it turned out that there was something to ask for, and to hear it." Guanyin said: "I follow my Buddhist decree, looking for the people who have learned the scriptures, in order to teach the world to listen to the Buddhist scriptures in the future, beyond the sea of suffering, in a few days, he will come, you worship him as a teacher, he will save you from the Five Elements Mountain, you protect him to go west, you can get the right results in the future, do you want to?"

Wukong sneered in his heart: "Let me go west to learn the scriptures, if you come to press me under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, and dare to let me do things for him, delusional! Hehe! When my grandson comes out of this Five Elements Mountain, he will immediately kill the person who learns the scriptures with a stick, and let you go west to end up talking!"

So he nodded, Guanyin saw it, his heart was happy, but he didn't do it, he only smiled: "Amitabha! good!" Guanyin reached into his arms again, took out a vajra ring given by Rulai, threw it towards Wukong, and was wearing it on Wukong's head. Wukong only said that it was an ordinary magic weapon, thinking that he was the incorruptible body of King Kong, and this magic weapon could not be hurt, so he ignored it.

Guanyin smiled and said: "From today on, you are a member of my Buddhist sect, and you are here to wait for the person to learn the scriptures." Wukong nodded faintly.

Guanyin then drove the clouds and went to the Tang Kingdom. After Guanyin left, Wukong showed a sneer on his face, looked up at the sky, looked at the white cloud Shujuan, and said with a faint smile: "Wait and see." ”

To find out what's next, listen to the next breakdown.
