。 Not long after Zhao Gongming and the others left, in just half an hour of effort, dozens of golden rays of light galloped from the west, and after the light fell to the ground, and after the golden light dissipated, dozens of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas appeared.

If Zhao Gongming hadn't left, he would have been able to recognize that the leader was the Maitreya King Buddha who was known as the big-bellied Buddha who could tolerate the world.

Following the Maitreya King Buddha, there are also Amitayus Buddha, Vajra Buddha is not bad, Baoguang Buddha, Dragon King Buddha, Dragon Whisker King Buddha, Bao Yueguang Buddha, Wisdom Buddha, etc., there are 24 Buddhas, all of whom have the cultivation of Daluo Jinxian.

After the Buddhas arrived, they saw a mess in front of the Yellow Wind Cave, and there were traces left by Taoism, supernatural powers, and magic weapons everywhere, but they did not see Sun Wukong, Lingji Bodhisattva and others.

Maitreya Venerable King Buddha looked at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but flash a trace of uneasiness in his heart, and hurriedly took many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to the Yellow Wind Cave.

Maitreya King Buddha was about to send someone to call the door, but he saw that the door of the Yellow Wind Cave was wide open, and Sun Wukong was helping Tang Sanzang out of the cave door.

When Sun Wukong's face was gloomy, his eyebrows were quite decadent, as if he had something on his mind, Maitreya Venerable King Buddha looked around him for a long time, and he didn't find the figure of Lingji Bodhisattva.

The feeling of uneasiness in the heart of the Maitreya Venerable Buddha became more and more intense, and he didn't care about maintaining the smile on his face, so he walked quickly to Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice, and said with a forced smile: "Sanzang, congratulations to your master and apprentice for getting out of this calamity, going through this calamity, and getting one step closer to the West Heavenly Leiyin Temple." ”

When Tang Sanzang saw that there were more than 20 Buddhas and Bodhisattvas at one time, when did he see such a momentum, he was eager to bow down in a hurry, and wanted to pay homage to the Buddhas.

Maitreya Venerable King Buddha was in the mood to discuss these mundane rites with him, and hurriedly supported Tang Sanzang, who was about to bow down, and stared at him with straight eyes...... Qiang smiled: "|The poor monk heard that the Lingji Bodhisattva came here to help you subdue the demon, I don't know where the Lingji Bodhisattva is?"

After saying that, it's not just him. Even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas behind him stared at Tang Sanzang directly, expecting to get a satisfactory answer from his mouth.

That Tang Sanzang was glared at by so many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and Bai Jun's little face turned red. I stammered for a long time and didn't speak.

On the other hand, Sun Wukong on the side suddenly raised his face, with a gloomy monkey face, and said coldly: "I'm afraid that Lingji Bodhisattva has fallen!"

As he spoke, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes without the slightest divine light, obviously quite ashamed of Lingji Bodhisattva's behavior of abandoning him and running away without permission.

The Maitreya King Buddha was shocked when he heard this, and he couldn't care about the disdain in Sun Wukong's words, and hurriedly asked: "Who is so rampant that you dare to kill my Buddha Bodhisattva!"

When Sun Wukong heard this, he smiled coldly: "It's a Taoist riding a black tiger." The weapon is a pair of black iron whips, as well as several powerful magic weapons. My old grandson and the monk Na Lingji fought together, and he was not his opponent!"

As soon as Maitreya heard what Sun Wukong said, he had vaguely guessed who it was. Hurriedly asked: "That person calls himself Zhao Gongming." The magic weapon is twenty-four beads that shimmer with multicolored light?"

Sun Wukong said lightly: "I don't know if it is Zhao Gongming and my old grandson, but the Lingji monk called that person Brother Zhao Dao." 、

That man's magic weapon is indeed powerful. There was a treasure rope that was as red as fire, and a turquoise ruler, and as for the beads, my grandson of the twenty-four ones did not see them, and the thirty-six ones were seen at that time. ”

As soon as Maitreya King Buddha heard Sun Wukong confirm his thoughts, he immediately understood that the person was Zhao Gongming, and he was furious at the moment.

The laughing Maitreya, who often laughs, has also turned into an angry King Kong who subdues demons and subdues demons: "Duh! If it's really Zhao Gongming who intercepts the sect! Hmph, Dinghai Shenzhu, binding the dragon rope, Qiankun ruler, killing my Buddhism Bodhisattva, this revenge on my Buddhism will be avenged one day." ”...,

It's not that, how important Lingji Bodhisattva really is, but it is related to the reputation of Buddhism, so someone blatantly killed a Bodhisattva of Buddhism, Buddhism has no words, I am afraid that the entire immortal world will despise Buddhism.

Looking at Sun Wukong, who was safe and sound in front of him, Maitreya Venerable King Buddha flashed a trace of doubt in his heart, and asked at the moment: "Since Zhao Gongming killed Lingji Bodhisattva." Wukong and Lingji Bodhisattva fought against Zhao Gongming, how could they stand here unharmed?"

When Sun Wukong heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "What? Could it be that the Maitreya Buddha wished that my old grandson would also die in the hands of that person?"

Tang Sanzang, who was next to him, was shocked when he saw Sun Wukong speaking to Maitreya Buddha like this, and immediately said angrily: "Duh, Wukong, Maitreya Buddha is also a kind heart, why do you have to speak so coldly? Why don't you quickly admit your mistake to Maitreya Buddha?"

Sun Wukong sneered: "My old grandson didn't do anything wrong, why apologize to him!"

Tang Sanzang saw that Sun Wukong was so disobedient to discipline, and he was furious, and immediately wanted to recite the mantra to punish him, but was stopped by Maitreya Buddha on the side.

Maitreya Buddha regained his smiling appearance, and said with a smile: "Sanzang, there is no need to blame Wukong, but the old monk lost his word, since your master and apprentice are now out of trouble, the old monk and others will leave!"

As he spoke, he summoned an acre of golden Buddha light and spiritual clouds, holding twenty-four Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to fly to the western sky in an instant.

After Maitreya Buddha and other Buddhas and Bodhisattvas left, Sun Wukong helped Tang Sanzang, met Zhu Bajie, who was watching coldly on the sidelines, got on the white dragon horse, and continued their westward journey.

It didn't take long for him to come to a place that made Tang Sanzang's liver tremble, and this was not anywhere else, it was the quicksand river.

This Comrade Xiao Tang has long been kicked down from the West by the old monk who burned the lamp, and just after being reincarnated, every life of the first nine generations wanted to go to the West to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures.

Every time, he was eaten by the Tang Fish Essence inside, and he also made a string of white bone necklaces with his former ninth life and skull, so as soon as Xiao Tang Tongshou arrived, he couldn't help but turn pale and look panicked.

When Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were looking at the quicksand river in front of them, a thin wave suddenly burst out of the river and flew out of the river with a monster.

I saw that the man's hair was fluffy with red flames, and his two round eyes were as bright as lamps. The face is not black or blue, like thunder and the sound of an old dragon. Wearing a collar of goose yellow, the waist is tied with white vines. There are nine skeletons hanging under the head, and the staff is very powerful.

When Tang Sanzang saw that it was him, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, and hurriedly shouted: "Wukong." There are youkai. Come and protect as a teacher. ”

Sun Wukong saw Tang Sanzang's cowardly appearance, a trace of disdain flashed in the monkey's eyes, and he just wanted to turn over and subdue the demons. But seeing that the demon was not holding a weapon, after landing on the ground, he hurriedly shouted: "Don't fight." Mo Da, I was enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, and I came to protect Master Xi. ”

This person is one of the few immortals who voluntarily went to heaven as a god by the Interception Sect back then, and he is also one of the few immortals in the Heavenly Court who are not controlled by the god list, that is, the later Sha Monk.

When Ling Xiao calculated that this Tang Yujing was a person in the sect, he was also quite surprised, but after all, it is always good to be a person in the sect, and when he secretly discussed the matter of Journey to the West with him at the moment, he made a small mistake on purpose. Come to this quicksand river as a demon.

When Tang Sanzang saw that this person had a fierce face, but he was also a person who was enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, he was secretly happy in his heart. After hurriedly taking him down. He shaved his long hair and gave him the name Sha Wujing. Nicknamed Sha Monk.

Subsequently, Sha Wujing took off the white bone necklace made of nine skulls around his neck, turned into a white bone boat, and carried Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice across the quicksand river and continued westward.

In the west sky, in the Great Lei Yin Temple, Shakyamuni lit the lamp and sat on the top of the nine-grade golden lotus, and there were four great bodhisattvas below, five ancient Buddhas, three hundred Buddhas, five hundred arhats, and three thousand Jialan, countless monks, and bhikshunis kept singing and preaching outside the temple. ...,

There is a Buddha in the middle below, with his chest and breasts exposed, and his smile is always open, it is the Maitreya King Buddha who has just returned from Huangfengling.

Maitreya King Buddha folded his hands and made a mockery towards the Shakyamuni Buddha on the nine-grade golden lotus, and chanted the Buddha's name in his mouth: "When the Amitabha Buddha in the south, the enlightened Buddha, the poor monks and others arrived at the Huangfeng Ridge, the Monkey King's master and apprentice have been freed, listen to what the Monkey King said, Lingji Bodhisattva has now passed away, and the perpetrator is the person who intercepted the sect, Zhao Gongming." ”

Shakyamuni Buddha's eyes lowered, as if in a state of concentration, after hearing the report of Maitreya Buddha, his heart couldn't help but sigh softly, opened his eyes slightly, raised his eyes to look down, only to see that among the countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, there were hundreds of people with a trace of unnatural color flashing on their faces, and then their eyes were lowered at the same time, as if they were in a state of concentration.

Shakyamuni Buddha knew that those people were all the gods of the sect who were forcibly crossed from the sect by the Taoist when they were canonized as gods, and although they have now sincerely converted to Buddhism, they still can't keep calm when they hear the word "sect interception".

At this time, there was Guanyin Bodhisattva holding a net bottle below, and suddenly said: "Amitabha, Buddha, poor monk has a plan, you can give color to the people in the sect." ”

The Shakyamuni Buddha on the golden lotus suddenly frowned, and couldn't help asking: "I don't know what kind of good strategy the Venerable Guanzi has to suppress the rampant arrogance of the people in the sect." ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva suddenly smiled and said: "Since the Tang Sanzang out of the eastern land, there have never been a few difficulties, if there are poor monks and Manjushri Bodhisattva, Puxian Bodhisattva, and the Great Trend to the Bodhisattva in the lower realm, changed the appearance, try the heart of Sanzang's westward journey, it is also a success, all a difficult calamity,

At that time, if there is a sectarian in the lower realm, I will wait for three quasi-saints and one Da Luo Jin Immortal, and I will not be afraid of him and others, I don't know what the Buddha thinks?"

Hearing this, Shakyamuni Buddha clasped his hands together, stroked his palms and said with a smile: "According to the words of the Venerable Venerable, the poor monk will pay attention to the situation in the lower realm at any time. ”

When the Venerable Guanzi heard the words and praised the goodness, he immediately called Manjushri Bodhisattva and Puxian Bodhisattva, and the four Bodhisattvas of the Great Trend came to the lower realm together.

After the four Bodhisattvas received the Buddha's decree, they left the West Heaven Leiyin Temple, and drove an auspicious cloud to the lower realm.

Suddenly, the face of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the head of the four bodhisattvas, changed, and then several other Bodhisattvas also reflected, and the four of them looked ahead side by side, but saw that the surrounding scenery changed for a while, and the blue sky and white sun disappeared, replaced by a world of rolling yellow sand.

These four bodhisattvas and Patriarch Nasu Bodhi ended up in the same fate, and before they could take action, they were trapped in the great array.

But seeing this burst of heaven and earth, the Yellow River, the yin wind and the long man, the black fog covering the sun and the moon. Swinging, insignificant, miserable, gloomy.

The faces of Guanyin Bodhisattva and the others became extremely ugly, and Manjushri Bodhisattva exclaimed in surprise: "Nine Songs of the Yellow River Array?" Although he said a question, his tone was quite affirmative.

Guanyin Bodhisattva hurriedly took out the willow branch in the glass pure bottle in his hand, stained it with a trace of three-light divine water, and swayed it into the air, turning into a red, white, and blue shield to protect the four people, staring coldly at the depths of the big array. He shouted lightly: "Which Taoist friend of the sect is here." Please come out and see you too. ”

Although he knew that the Jiuqu Yellow River Array belonged to Ling Xiao, Guanyin Bodhisattva knew in his heart that if Ling Xiao came in person. There is no need to set up this array to trap himself and others, because he can kill himself and others in a single hand.

Therefore, Guanyin Bodhisattva was extremely sure that the person who set up the formation here was not Ling Xiao himself. It's Ling Xiao's fellow disciple or his disciple.

After Guanyin Bodhisattva's words fell, I only heard a coquettish smile coming from the depths of the big array, accompanied by a burst of children's crisp laughter. ...,

When I looked up, I saw three people flying out from the depths of the big array, or riding Qingluan, or sitting on a gourd, or sitting on the flower seat on the other side.

When Guanyin Bodhisattva saw the three immortals of the Hundred Flowers Fairy, his always compassionate face was full of iron and blue. He asked angrily: "Yunxiao Daoist, what do you mean by setting up the Nine Curved Yellow River Array to stop the four poor monks?

When Yunxiao heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Cihang Dao people." What you say makes no sense. Originally, Poor Dao was taking two teachers and nephews to practice this formation here, and you broke into the big formation of Poor Dao for no reason. The poor road has not yet blamed you, but you have beaten a rake, worthy of being a person in Buddhism, and you don't have a face. ”

When Guanyin Bodhisattva heard this, he secretly scolded Yunxiao for being cunning, obviously intending to trap himself and others in this formation, but he hit a rake, not pushing it on himself and others, but not on the face.

At that moment, he suppressed the anger in his chest, and said lightly: "Since this is the case, it is the poor monk and others who are reckless, and I also ask the Taoist friends to withdraw the big array and let the poor monk and others out." ”

Yunxiao was willing to let them out, and said with a smile: "Since the four Bodhisattvas have entered this formation today, it is better to walk around the small formation of the poor road and see how the formation of the poor road is." ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva was furious, and before he could speak, he saw that Yunxiao had already turned Qingluan, and flew away with the two of them in an instant, and returned to the depths of the great array.

Before leaving, he raised his hand to shoot a Shangqing divine thunder, and launched the Jiuqu Yellow River Array, and in an instant, the sky was dark in the big array, the sun and moon were lightless, and the yellow sand was rolling, forming a continuous huge wave, and the red sun on the top of the god light shot wildly, and the silver-white moon also sprinkled a cold brilliance, constantly weakening the original spirit of the monks.

Manjushri Bodhisattva and the others were shocked, knowing that this nine-song Yellow River array was very powerful, and hurriedly sacrificed the magic weapon, or the Seven Treasure Golden Lotus, or the Taiji Rune, or the Green Jade Ruyi, emitting a shining treasure light, protecting themselves and others.

Yunxiao, who was in the center of the array, saw that the four great bodhisattvas had each sacrificed their magic weapons, and a sneer appeared on their delicate faces.

Stretching out her hand, like an ape fresh fruit, the golden light in her hand flickered and the mixed yuan golden bucket had appeared in her hand.

Yunxiao casually threw his hand into the air, and the Mixed Yuan Golden Bucket turned into a round of golden sun, radiating ten thousand bone-eroding golden light, falling like rain on the top of the heads of the four Manjushri.

At the same time, the yellow sand in the large array also seemed to have received an order, and quickly swarmed towards the four Manjushri, instantly wrapping them into a huge sand cocoon.

After casting a spell to trap the four of them, Yunxiao sat cross-legged on the gossip platform, and as soon as his eyes were closed, he was about to settle down.

The gourd baby next to her looked at Yunxiao on the gossip platform, and asked with a beautiful little face full of puzzlement: "Uncle Yunxiao, we are about to trap the four of them now, why don't we just kill them in one fell swoop, so can't we greatly reduce the strength of Buddhism?"

Yunxiao opened his eyes again, and said with a smile: "This is your father's order, how can Uncle Shi guess your father's thoughts, but the plan in Senior Brother's heart, Poor Dao can guess some." ”

The Baihua Fairy next to him sat on the flower seat on the other side, and looked at Yunxiao with curiosity on his face and said, "Then please ask Uncle Shi to tell us about it!"

Yunxiao nodded when he heard this, and chuckled: "The Taoist ancestor once said that Buddhism should be prosperous, and now it is the time when Buddhism is prosperous, so there is Buddhism to travel to the west.

In the Eight Views Palace that day, the Taiqing Sage, the Yuan Shi Tianzun and the senior brother and the Zhun Ti Buddha mother discussed the matter of the Journey to the West, and it was agreed that the immortals and Buddhas who were above the cultivation of Da Luo Jinxian were not allowed to interfere in the matter of sealing the gods, and now although the four of Manjushri are in the lower realm, they have not interfered with the matter of the Journey to the West, if we rush to kill them, I am afraid that I will only sweep the face of the saints and your master.

provoked the dislike of the saints, but I was afraid that it would be even more dangerous for me to intercept the teaching, and now I intercepted the religion just to kill some Buddhism and Buddha who had some cause and effect with my interception. Bodhisattva, most of the cultivation is Da Luo Jin Xian, even if the Buddha is unwilling, but there is nothing to say, after all, cause and effect are knotted, sooner or later it needs to be ended, even if Amitabha Buddha and Zhun Ti Buddha's mother descended from the earth, we also have something to say.

But if the four of Manjushri and Guanyin are really killed, the Buddha Gate will suddenly lose three quasi-saint masters, and I am afraid that the Buddha Mother will no longer be able to sit still, even if she is desperately blamed by the Taoist ancestor, she will personally come down and kill us.

is saying, the immortal Buddha who is a quasi-saint cultivator, how can it be so easy to kill, even if the Zhun Ti Buddha Mother does not go down to earth in person, many quasi-saints of the Buddha Gate are all dispatched to rescue the three of them.

If it triggers a war between the two religions, I am afraid that it will be a lose-lose situation, and let the exposition and Taoism take advantage of it in vain.

I think this is also the reason why Senior Brother and Zhun Ti Buddha Mother have been restraining each other, otherwise, with the cause and effect of Zhun Ti Buddha Mother and Amitabha Buddha when they were consecrated as gods, how could Senior Brother just let us kill some of the Buddha's Da Luo Jin Immortals? I'm afraid that it has already reached that level of immortality, but the time for war has not yet come!"
