187 times, the old national teacher persuaded the guests to turn back, and the great Tianzun attempted to make a wish

The secret merchant broke into the palace at night, this kind of thing can be big or small, at worst, it can be charged with "rebellion", and at worst, as long as it is not exposed and does not admit it, it can pass silently, it depends on how to deal with it. If it is really a rebel, the first choice is to kill Zhi Xu, of course Mei Zhenyi can't do this, first ask Zhi Xu-what do you want?

Zhixu was also on guard with the crescent moon treasure shovel in his hand, and replied calmly: "Don't misunderstand Mei Gongzi, I just want to dissuade you, now this palace is not a place where you two can trespass, please stop thinking about it, just act as if nothing happened." ...... In addition, the old monk still has something unclear, you two are immortal cultivators, why do you want to break into the Forbidden Palace at night?"

Zhixu had no intention of telling the truth, and he had no intention of doing it, so Mei Zhenyi was relieved. After thinking about it, let's be honest, he pointed to the peony bush next to him and said, "Does the master know about Luoyang peony?"

Zhixu: "Of course I heard about it, but I don't know what happened. ”

Mei Zhenyi did not hide it, and told the story of the white peony of Luoyang, the god of flowers, of course, he also had reservations, and did not say that the quiet garden he built for the white peony was in the backyard of the Nanlu Mansion, but said that there was such a place. After hearing this, Zhi Xuan also sighed and said: "The flower god has entered the reincarnation, and the poor monk is also very sorry, but what do the two of you want to break into the palace? ”

Zhiyan shook his head and said: "Master's words are wrong, mortals will eventually die, and re-enter reincarnation for another life, can it be said that murder is not guilty? Heaven has no relatives, but the murderer is guilty, how can the law of the world and the law of the immortal family be confused? If it were not for the actions of the Martial Emperor, the white peony would at least enjoy the full life, even if the limit was inevitable, it would not be as difficult as it is today. ”

"If the law of the world is used, the peony flower was degraded and pardoned, although Emperor Wu is a negative move. but there is no guilt to be added. If you talk about the immortal family relationship, the white peony has reached the limit in reincarnation, and it is not responsible for the emperor of the world. Zhixu replied with a frown.

Mei Zhenyi: "This is exactly the tangled point of this matter, I have only thought about it for a long time and have not figured it out, the master is a high-ranking monk, can you give me some advice? I want to break into the palace to see Emperor Wu, so I want to question her about this matter." ”

Zhixu put down his Zen staff and looked up at the starlight for a long time. Only then did he say: "The source of this matter is not the white peony resisting the decree, but the fact that Emperor Wu can make the rest of the flowers in the garden bloom." The opening of the flowers in the West Garden is the effect of the Martial Emperor's supernatural powers, which can be rewarded, and the peony does not bloom, which is the place where the Martial Emperor's supernatural powers are not reached, and the peony flowers are not courtiers and should not be hated. ”

Mei Zhenyi bowed deeply and said: "The master is worthy of being a high monk. I thought about it for a long time just now, but I didn't understand what the Martial Emperor was wrong about? Abuse supernatural powers, but hate supernatural powers where they can't reach, this matter should never be!"

Zhixu: "That's right. I will explain the matter of Peony to Emperor Wu, persuade her to respect herself, and I will not say that you want to break into the palace, so you two should leave. ”

Zhiyan: "Is that all?"

Zhixu: "This is the end of the matter. What else do you want to do and what can you do? As cultivators, Emperor Wu has made a mistake. But as an emperor of the world, there is no guilt in this move. Do you want to enter the palace to set up precepts for Emperor Wu and then punish them according to the precepts? You can't do it, no matter how big-minded you are, you still have to do things according to your ability. The old monk showed up to persuade you is a good intention, and I will also persuade Emperor Wu after I return to the palace, this is what I can do. ”

Zhiyan: "I know that the master has good intentions. I also know that your advice is the wisest. But has the master ever thought that it is impossible for people in the world to choose according to the so-called wisest results, such as the white peony chose people to stay. If Zhenyi and I insist on going our own way, we will break into the palace to question Emperor Wu?"

Zhi Xuan sighed again, and Pingduan Crescent Moon Treasure shoveled: "If you have to be like this, I can't help it." Emperor Wu's cultivation is not mentioned, the palace enshrines ten national teachers, and the poor monks are at the bottom. If you are confident in the great powers. Then get past me first. I opened my mouth to persuade and I raised my rod to hinder me. Whether it is for the two Taoist friends or the Martial Emperor, the poor monk can be regarded as doing his best. ”

Zhiyan just stabbed Zhixu with words, and whether he moved or not depends on Mei Zhenyi's meaning. Mei Zhenyi has no intention of fighting with Zhixuan, this old monk is not a mortal, thinking that he was holding a purple gold bowl at the foot of Jingting Mountain and fighting with Qingfeng, although the wind fell but did not retreat, it was Mei Zhenyi who saw it with his own eyes. Mei Zhenyi deduced several times in his heart, even if he and Zhiyan combined forces with the purple and green swords, it would be difficult to defeat Zhi Xu, and he would not be able to fight to the death with this Zen teacher.

Mei Zhenyi put away the purple electric sword and said: "I don't have the ability to do this today, and I don't want to embarrass the Zen master, I hope that the Zen master will admonish the Martial Emperor when he is in the palace, which is what you just said." ...... But my wish has risen today, and if I have the ability in the future, I will set rules for the whole world, and abstain from others and myself, whether it is the Son of Heaven or a commoner, as long as I am a monk, I can do it myself. ...... Zhiyan, let's go!"

"What a big wish, such a big breath, I thought it was a bodhisattva who was speaking...... Mei Zhenyi, you haven't even achieved the Immortal Dao yet, is it okay to say this kind of thing after you verify the Golden Immortal?...... Settle the matter in front of you first, if there is a national teacher blocking the way, do you have to retreat? Don't worry, with me here, even if you two make a move, you can fight with him. ”

There was a person's voice behind the two, and it turned out to be Mr. Sui. It's really strange tonight, when Zhixu appeared, Mei Zhenyi and Zhiyan didn't notice it in advance, and when Mr. Sui appeared, even Zhixu didn't notice that someone was coming.

Mei Zhenyi has now guessed who Mr. Sui is, he is the lord of the heavenly court, "Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Venerable Xuanqiong High God", which is what the common people usually call the Jade Emperor, but since Mr. Sui does not know who he is, Mei Zhenyi will not break it. In many modern film and television dramas about Journey to the West, the Jade Emperor is a nest image, but in the original work of "Journey to the West", the monkey who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace actually didn't even touch the side of the Jade Emperor. And in the experience that Mei Zhenyi saw with his own eyes after crossing over, this gentleman's cultivation was unfathomable.

Mei Zhenyi has seen a lot of masters, some people such as the watchman monk, he has not dealt much with him and has never seen him make a move, so it is not easy to teach, but among the masters who can make a comparison in his heart, only two people are the top.

These two people do not include Fairy Child Qingfeng, although Qingfeng has the cultivation of Jin Immortal, but it is still a step worse than Zhen Yuanzi. Zhenyuan Daxian is highly cultivated, supernatural, boundless, and scheming, this is the top figure Mei Zhenyi has seen, and he is still above Guanzi Bodhisattva and others. The other person is this Mr. Sui, if you don't compare the background. In terms of personal cultivation alone, he can also be compared with Zhen Yuanzi for a long time.

"Mr. Sui, why are you again?" Mei Zhenyi turned around and asked.

Mr. Sui walked to the front with his hands behind his back and asked, "You use the word 'again' strangely, this is a wilderness, you can come, why can't I?"

Mei Zhenyi: "I mean, you're almost everywhere, and you can be seen almost anywhere. Every time I see you, I'm always a little apprehensive. ”

Mr. Sui smiled: "Yes? I haven't seen you afraid! Who told you to name me Mr. Sui? Then I can meet you everywhere." Don't worry this time, I'm here to help, you and the Taoist will fight with this national teacher, I guarantee that you won't lose! Even if you want to break into the palace to settle accounts with Emperor Wu, I will guarantee that you can meet her. ”

"Mr. Sui?" Zhi Xuan was stunned, his expression seemed to be a little confused, and then he regained his composure. As Mei Zhenyi also called out this title, he held the treasure shovel with his arm and saluted with both hands: "I heard that Your Excellency once broke into the palace, but returned in vain, why do you want to involve these two children in this harassment?...... If you want to do it yourself. The poor monk knows that he will retreat into Luoyang City if he is defeated, but I don't know why you came here?"

Mr. Sui didn't take advantage of the palace alone last time, and he had already said that he would no longer be entangled with the emperor's seal, so what are you doing this time? Mr. Sui replied with a smile: "Didn't you hear me? I'm here to help." Isn't it okay to help these two children?...... Zhixu, I would like to ask you, after being worshiped by a woman, a dignified generation of eminent monks, don't you feel ashamed of the Buddha when you become the watchdog of the palace?"

Zhi Shu replied without anger: "Since I am enshrined as a national teacher, I have the responsibility of protecting the Dharma. Knowing that these two children would encounter danger if they trespassed into the palace, I didn't persuade them, and I saw with my own eyes that someone wanted to break into the forbidden palace, and I didn't stop them. If that's the case, don't talk about monks, then I'm really not as good as a dog. Mr. Sui thinks that the watchdog is worthy of the Buddha, but the Buddha does not think so. "The Zen master speaks so wonderfully, he doesn't mind how others scold him. The rhetorical words are sharp.

Mei Zhenyi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The two masters don't compete anymore." Thank you also for your kindness. But what I said just now has been made clear, if Mr. Sui wants to enter the palace, please enter the palace by himself. Zhiyan and I will say goodbye. ”

Although Mei Zhenyi has a grudge against Emperor Wu, he is not an indiscriminate person, since Xingzang has been exposed and knows that he can't do anything, he will definitely not go to the palace again. Mr. Sui showed up and said that he wanted to help, obviously wanting to make a big deal out of it, Mei Zhenyi didn't want to get involved, and if he couldn't get his father and Mei's family involved, it was better to get out quickly.

As soon as Mei Zhenyi's words came out, Zhi Xuan immediately said: "Good and good, since the thoughts of the two donors have disappeared, the poor monk will leave!" As soon as he turned around after speaking, his figure flashed a few times, and he disappeared in the direction of Luoyang City. This old monk is also interesting, he only talks to Mei Zhenyi, does not entangle with Mr. Sui, and leaves immediately.

Zhi Shu left, Mr. Sui stayed in the same place, stroked his palm and said to Mei Zhenyi: "Since you don't want to enter the palace to make trouble, you will cheapen them today, alas, what a pity!"

Mei Zhenyi couldn't cry or laugh: "Looking at what Mr. Sui meant, it seems that I want to enter the palace to make trouble?"

Mr. Sui snorted: "Back then, there was a monkey who ran to the Heavenly Court Lingxiao Treasure Hall to make trouble, and now there is a kid who runs to the palace in the world to make trouble, why not?"

Mei Zhenyi: "It's a pity that I'm just a kid, not a monkey, which disappointed Mr. Sui." ”

Although Zhiyan had never seen Mr. Sui, he also knew who he was at this time, stepped forward and saluted, took out an object from his arms and handed it over: "Juniors visit Mr. Sui, this is the cover you gave to the white peony back then, now that the flower god is gone, please take back the jade bone fan." ”

Mr. Sui shook his head and said, "Mei Zhenyi, you kid is interesting, and your Taoist companion is also interesting." The artifact I gave away, others are eager to fall into their own hands, but you are desperate to return it. This jade bone fan is what I rewarded with a gold plate at the Oiran banquet, how can I take it back?"

Mei Zhenyi was not verbose, took back the jade bone fan in Zhiyan's hand and said: "Thank you Mr. Sui, you are going on an outing slowly, we still have something to do, so we will be lost first!"

"Slow, it's rare to meet again, chat a few words before leaving. ...... Forget it, I'll go with you. Talk as you go. Are you going to Wuzhou? Just on the same road, I also want to drink a few glasses of Lao Chunhuang. "Mr. Sui has to go with them, Mei Zhenyi and Zhiyan can't get rid of their magical powers, so they have to follow him.

Flying to the south, Mr. Sui asked in the clouds: "Mei Zhenyi, I know you have a belly of words that no one can say, why don't you ask me?"

Mei Zhenyi: "I'm afraid! I'm just afraid that if I'm not careful, I will become dumb again." ”

Mr. Sui smiled and said, "Then you should be careful, it will be okay?" It's a rare experience for you. ...... Don't you want to know why I showed up? Why would a monk like Zhixu be worshiped by the Empress Wu and help her?"

"I was confused, but now I know. It's just that I don't know one thing, why does Mr. Sui always come to me?" Mei Zhenyi's answers and questions were all true.

Why do Zhixu and other eminent monks support Emperor Wu? This should not be asked, but should be asked, why do they not support Emperor Wu? It is better to have an emperor who worships the Buddha than an emperor who does not worship the Buddha. Even if you don't force it, you will definitely support the emperor and worship Buddha.

There are many emperors who worship Buddha in history, but Emperor Wu is very special, simply too special! It does not mean that she is the only female emperor in the ages, but that she has the ability to cultivate and hold the artifact of the human emperor's seal. And it is a Zhou on behalf of the Tang Dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty, the practice of the world was prosperous, and the royal family posthumously recognized the Taoist ancestor as the ancestor, so Taoism flourished in the world, which is the most desired place for the heavenly court. It's good now. After a martial emperor, it was enough to worship Buddha, and he also openly issued an edict as an emperor, announcing that the status of Buddhism was above the rest of the religions. It's hard to describe how big the impact is, just take an example, the Taoist ancestors who are worshiped in Qiyunguan in Wuzhou have all been replaced by Sanqing, and they are still silver from the government.

The Buddha is happy to see it. Of course, Heavenly Court didn't want to see it, but at this time, there was another Wanshou Mountain, and the situation in the human world was complicated. met the Nine Spirits Yuan Sage in Kunlun Wonderland, and explained the mystery of Qingfeng's departure from Wuguanzhuang back then, Mei Zhenyi already knew these inside information, and she didn't need to ask in her heart.

Seeing him answer like this, Mr. Sui stroked his long hair and said, "When I went to Wuzhou to look for Qingfeng, I happened to meet you." A little earthly monk. But it has so much to do with it, and even I can't deduce it clearly. That's why I paid attention to you, now I understand?"

Mei Zhenyi: "I guessed eight or nine points at the beginning, because the mirror you gave me on the ground, I didn't dare to use it and couldn't shake it off, you can sense it wherever you go." Now I understand it, but I'm even more confused, I haven't even cultivated the Immortal Dao, and I'm an insignificant little character, why do you want to be like this?"

Mr. Sui shook his head slightly: "In just a few years, your cultivation and knowledge are far better than at the beginning, and I am very surprised by the vision of reading the world and the improvement of cultivation, and over time, even I dare not speculate what you will do, let alone insignificant." ”

Mei Zhenyi: "Mr. Sui, I'm just a monk in the world, I just want to honestly cultivate my immortals and do my own thing, can you please take back that mirror?"

Mr. Sui smiled incomprehensibly: "I have already given it to you, I don't want to take it back, you can use it if you have the ability." ”

Mei Zhenyi only smiled bitterly: "Since you want to send me, can you explain the origin of this thing clearly? Otherwise, it will be easy to cause misunderstanding." That mirror is a stolen item from Heaven, and if it is discovered by others, and Mr. Sui does not come out to explain, there may be big trouble.

Mr. Sui diverted the topic: "When Qingfeng hit the Kunlun Wonderland, I didn't see Zhen Yuanzi come out to explain, but the real masters understand it in their hearts, it depends on whether you are a master or not." ”

Zhiyan, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Mr. Sui, you said that the treasure mirror was given to Zhenyi, if we wash away the divine consciousness spirit above, you won't pursue it, right?" But if the above earth spirit is cleansed and refined, the meaning is different.

Mr. Sui glanced at Zhiyan with a smile on his face, as if to say, "Do you have this ability?" and said, "You girl, you should go and help Daoyou do business, you are quite calculating." It's not easy to do this, and if it does, I don't have to pursue it. ”

The three of them flew south, and the sky gradually revealed in the morning, and they saw that the front was not far from Wuzhou. Mei Zhenyi stopped and arched his hand towards Mr. Sui: "The matter of the white peony, and the matter of showing up tonight to help, no matter what the cause and effect are, I should thank you! Mr. Sui must have some advice, if you have something to say, just open your mouth directly." ”
