Chapter 6: Bodhi Roots

"This thing has nothing to do with the Wisdom Tree King, and I dare say she certainly didn't recognize it. Otherwise, she would never have given such a treasure to that female ghost. This green hosta is just an ordinary magic weapon, what really matters is what is inside the hosta!"

After Yan Chixia finished speaking, her two fingers were slightly forced, and she only heard a click, and saw that the green hosta was broken inch by inch, and the embedded gilt and green jade chips fell to the ground one after another, and a dark red silk thread flew out of the hairpin.

The dark red silk thread spun up in the air, like a wild horse that had escaped from the reins, shooting towards Li Ji, and the speed was not weak, and the flying sword was half a minute.

The sudden change occurred, and Li Ji was horrified, but he saw that Yan Chixia was already in front of him.

Yan Chixia's hands formed a complicated Buddha seal, and after drinking the word "edict" in her mouth, the silk thread seemed to have been stripped of her soul, and could only sway and fall to the ground.

The silk thread on the ground suddenly changed many times, the color changed from dark red to black brown, and the length of the original inch grew to seven or eight inches, about the thickness of the little finger.

Li Ji picked up the thing, put it in his hand and took a closer look, and saw that it was wrapped in a layer of black-veined bark, and there were hairy fine roots on it, which was actually the root of an ancient tree.

"Tree roots?" Li Ji looked puzzled.

He flipped it over and over again, but he couldn't see anything out of the ordinary. However, this tree root can not only help Senior Brother Yan break through the realm, but also change on its own, it must not be an ordinary thing.

"The body is like a Bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror. Yan Chixia glanced at the thing in Li Ji's hand fixedly, and slowly read out the two Buddhist verses of Master Shenxiu of the Northern Sect.

"Bodhi tree, this thing is actually the root of the Bodhi tree, the Bodhi tree is a famous tree of enlightenment, no wonder it can help the senior brother break through the bottleneck!" Li Ji heard this, and then muttered to himself: "Hey, it is related to the Buddha Gate, that is to say, the Mani Treasure Tree in the mouth of the Manichaean is the Bodhi Tree of the Buddha Gate, but how could this Buddhist holy relic come into the hands of one of his spiritual mountain outcasts?"

Yan Chixia was sensitive, and when she heard Li Ji's whisper, she explained: "In the history of Lingshan, only Bodhidharma broke the Bodhi branch once when he traveled eastward to teach the Dharma, and the rest did not have this honor. ”

"Senior brother is saying that he stole this thing?

Li Ji was dumbfounded, but he heard Yan Chixia say something that shocked him even more.

"This person not only touched the Bodhi tree of Buddhism, it is rumored that he first went to the Lingshan forest garden to break thirteen Bodhi branches, and dug up a Bodhi root. In the end, this person actually sneaked into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of Da Lei Yin Temple and stole a supreme secret book of Buddhism, called "Jin Yao Peacock Ming King Sutra". ”

After hearing this, Li Ji only felt that his admiration for this Manichaean master was almost breaking through the sky, like a surging river, endless.

In the Buddha's dojo, digging up a section of the roots of the Bodhi tree, a sacred relic of Buddhism, and stealing the true scriptures in the Da Lei Yin Temple, each of these is an earth-shattering event.

Then, the family left Lingshan leisurely, founded a sect in Persia, and became the ancestor of a religion.

The courage and courage of this one are several floors higher than that of the later one who defeated the Buddha.

"Hehe, junior brother thinks that the two things of Lingshan taking trees and stealing scriptures from Leiyin Temple can be done by just one Lingshan novice?

Although the Buddha Lord Shakya is high above the thirty-three heavens, the Leiyin Temple of Xitu Ling Mountain is his earthly dojo, and there will definitely be a wisp of divine thought to take care of it in case of accidents. ”

"Is there anything else hidden in this matter?"

"This is going to talk about the dispute between the two Buddhas of Buddhism, and if you know the two sects and three worlds of Manichaeism, you should be able to guess that the one standing behind that Mani is the future Buddha Maitreya Buddha whom he respects.

When the ancient Buddha was extinguished, and the Buddha was passed on to the throne, the Maitreya Buddha had anger in his heart, and the Buddha Shakyamuni had been fighting openly and secretly, and the Manichaean master was just a chess piece in the hands of the Maitreya Buddha.

At that time, Mani stole the sutra and took the tree, which was instructed by Maitreya Buddha and isolated the divine thoughts of the Buddha Shakya, so that it was discovered after more than ten years.

Although this Mani is a delusional person, but also extremely talented, he stole the scriptures and Bodhi roots, the Ming King scriptures into Manichaean teachings, and with Bodhi branches, recruited twelve disciples with Yin God cultivation, that is, the future Manichaeism of the Twelve Treasure Tree King, and he himself with Bodhi roots and Buddhist scriptures, less than ten years, from the Lingshan Xiaosha Mi to the Yang God master.

Mani preached in the Western Regions in the Twelve Treasure Tree Kings, received countless followers, Manichaeism gradually grew, and the name of Maitreya also spread in the Western Regions, and even spread to Middle-earth.

People fight for a breath, and Buddha fights for a breath of incense.

The decrease in the number of incense offerings in the world soon aroused the suspicion of the Buddha Shakya.

So the divine thought descended, and only then did he see the past clearly. The Buddha was furious, and the Maitreya Buddha also achieved his goal, and temporarily chose to avoid it, and Manichaeism became an outcast.

The Buddha's edict was issued, and the Buddha sect vigorously exterminated the Manichaeans throughout the Western Regions.

So the Manichaean master died, and only one of the twelve treasure tree kings died, and that was the wisdom treasure tree king. ”

Yan Chixia sighed: "At that time, when the former dynasty and the queen of Wu abdicated, the Manichaeans in Dongtu were not spared, and Zen Buddhism and Taoism took action one after another. Therefore, these secrets of the West Earth Spirit Mountain and Manichaeism will be spread in a small area in the East Earth Daomen, and I can recognize her as the Manichaean Wisdom Treasure Tree King just by this section of Bodhi root. ”

Hearing these secrets, Li Ji was speechless in shock. In my impression, the big-bellied and tolerant Maitreya Buddha with a kind smile not only has deep scheming and planning, but also acts ruthlessly and decisively.

Sure enough, even if it's a Buddha, you can't look like it!

The Manichaean master is also a poor man, from a humble background, once he took advantage of the situation to rise, and was about to move for nine days, but because he was involved in the struggle between the two Buddhas, he could only end up with a dead end, but, did he have a choice?

Li Ji couldn't help but think to himself, if I was in the position of the Manichaean master, what could I do?

If he can choose, he is not willing to be mediocre, either to save the world from the general, or, to poke a hole in the sky!

In this way, it is not in vain to come to this world for a while.

It's a pity that this Manichaean master is trapped in this side of the world, even if he moves for nine days, there is still a gap of twenty-four layers between him and the two Buddhas above those thirty-three days.

Li Ji looked up at the sky, but only saw the wooden roof of the monk's house.

Getting rid of this chaotic thought, Li Ji asked Yan Chixia, "I wonder if Senior Brother has a way to deal with the Wisdom Treasure Tree King, and how should the soon-to-be-born Ming King deal with it?"

Yan Chixia shook her head and sighed: "After knowing her identity, I realized that before, she didn't do her best to fight with me.

Hundreds of years ago, this woman was able to escape from the siege of Buddhism, and she was extremely forbearing, and I don't know what kind of state she has cultivated now. Even if I cultivate to make great progress today, I don't dare to say that I can take her, as for the relationship between the Bodhi Tree and the birth of King Ming, I have never heard of it, and I can't think about it for a while, I don't know what the senior brother has to say?"

Li Ji pondered for a long time, and said, "Last night, I discussed with Miss Nie and asked her to pretend that the magic weapon was seized by Yan Sheng, and enter the two demon caves to find the whereabouts of the human blood treasure tree.

She said that the night of the full sun and moon is the day when the human blood treasure tree grows, and then the king of Ming will be born.

So, I made a plan with her, "We should first destroy the human blood treasure tree to prevent the birth of King Ming, and then try to destroy the two demons."

And although the tree demon does not know the wonderful use of this thing, but has always attached great importance to this hosta, now, she mistakenly thinks that this thing is in the hands of the senior brother, and will come to snatch it tonight, we don't need to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, just wait for her tiger out of the mountain, we will go straight into the mountain to pound her lair.

Senior brother stayed in the temple tonight to deal with the king of the treasure tree, I and the second brother Ning went to find Miss Nie, then, the three of us worked together to destroy the human blood treasure tree, we must prevent the birth of the king of Ming, after destroying the treasure tree, the three of us went straight to Jinhua City, now Jinhua state test, the city is not only heavily guarded, but also the great Confucian, and Jinhua Dongtian Taoist monk Shifu, I expect that the treasure tree king will not dare to make a time, after the senior brother gets rid of her, come directly to the city to meet with us"

"Senior brother, this plan is wonderful!" Yan Chixia stroked her palms and praised.

"Last night, I asked Miss Nie to falsely call my senior brother the person who grabbed the weapon, and afterwards I felt that this matter was improper, and there was a suspicion that the water was moving eastward, only to feel sorry in my heart, and I couldn't be at peace for a long time, so this Bodhi root was sent to the senior brother as a reparation for the younger brother. ”

Handing the Bodhi tree root in his hand to Yan Chixia, Li Ji looked calm and reluctant.

Yan Chixia hurriedly refused, and said solemnly: "Senior brother can think of the common people, how can it harm people's hearts? Moreover, Bodhi chooses the master, and the master and disciple can meet, all because of the heart of the benevolent, the source of blessings is profound, and I have entered the way of the yang god through this thing, and I have also been touched by the blessing of the junior brother. If you take it for yourself again, greed and greed will give birth to demons in your heart, and the opportunity of the yang god will also disappear, is the junior brother trying to harm me?"

"However, the green hosta has been broken, and the senior brother has no bait to use if he stays here, if there is no Bodhi root, the tree demon will see that this place is unprofitable, and if he doesn't entangle with the senior brother, my second brother and I will be in danger!" Li Ji said the worry in his heart.

"Hehe, you still don't know this Treasure Tree King!"

Yan Chixia shook her head and smiled: "She is forbearing, known as a last resort, such a character must be conceited, everything needs to be seen in person, even if I hold the broken hairpin here, saying that this thing has been abolished, but a common law weapon, she will definitely take it back and check it in person."

Now that I know where she came from, when I say something terrible, she will not be angry, and she will vow to compete with me.

As long as she stays to fight with me, I have the confidence to hold her for an hour or two, and buy some time for my junior brother. ”

Li Ji was a little worried: "That Baoshu King has been famous for many years, and his cultivation and means are quite high, if he provokes the other party and provokes the other party to fight hard, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the senior brother." ”

"Haha, although I can't deal with her, I also have the confidence to protect myself, junior brother, don't worry!"

Yan Chixia smiled, obviously relying on it.

"Just listen to what you say, there is a Rakshasa demon in this temple......"

He paused, untied a shabby leather bag from his waist, and handed it to Li Ji: "This is a sword bag, which is used to hold people's heads after I killed people with a flying sword, and there is a sword aura on it, which can ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts, and there is no need for mana envoys, you take it, just to deal with this Rakshasa demon!"

"Thank you, senior brother!" Li Ji took it indifferently, without the slightest resistance to the human head sword bag, and wrapped it around his waist.

The two made a detailed plan, and Li Ji took his leave and left.
