Journey to the West: The criminal police handle the case, and the immortal Buddha retreats

I dealt with the Sky Ape Demon King a little bit.

While he was taking a nap, Monkey King quickly used a piece of monkey hair to transform into a fake body, but his real body turned into a small flying insect, and rushed into the Demon Town Tower following the smell.

The walls of this demon town tower are full of stories of Buddhism and Taoism fighting demons together.

The suppressive power in it is full of Buddhist scriptures and Zen principles and Taoist runes. Sun Wukong was surprised to find that he felt a sense of familiarity in that power.

It's a pity that he was so eager to save his master that he didn't have time to understand it carefully, so he got into the top of the tower.

A monk with red lips and white teeth was imprisoned here.

At this moment, the monk was sitting on the top of the pagoda, looking around, taking in everything in Shituoling.

The scene like a hell on earth filled this benevolent and kind monk with despair and powerlessness.

He wants to save.

But nothing can be saved.

I can only sit here and silently recite the sutra for those innocent souls.

But every time he saves a soul, the opponent kills tens of thousands of people in a row.

Despair like an abyss, like maggots on tarsal bones, expands and expands in Xuanzang's heart...

Gradually swallow him up.

But at this moment, a projection appeared in the room.

That figure is a golden light, with a blurred face, but it can make people feel extremely sacred.

That turned out to be...

West, Tathagata? !

The figure asked, "Jin Chanzi, have you thought it through?"

Seeing this figure, Tang Xuanzang's usually peaceful face showed a trace of grief and indignation: "Tathagata, you are despicable!!!"

It was clearly agreed that the Buddhist debate would not start until the west, but now he was still on the road, Tathagata sent his men to arrest him, and even let him witness such a miserable situation in the world.

Powerless, helpless.

Just when he was in despair, Tathagata took the opportunity to appear and asked him whether Mahayana Buddhism or Hinayana Buddhism was better.

As long as he answered Theravada Buddhism well, Tathagata would kill a group of demons who were eating people.

Tang Xuanzang instantly felt a burst of sadness.

Those monsters themselves are low-intelligence monsters. Humans ate them before they transformed, and they ate humans after they gained power.

I think this is "the law of nature, the law of the jungle."

Although it is a bit biased from the perspective of the human race, are they not innocent?

Perhaps after practicing cannibalism to break away from the blood-eating environment, the mind will change, and wisdom will naturally increase, and people will not be used as food.

But now.

But Tathagata regarded him as a pawn to play against him, just to make him recognize Mahayana Buddhism?
Tang Xuanzang's heart was shaken for a while.

But he closed his eyes lightly and gritted his teeth.

"Do not!!!"

Tathagata sneered.

With a wave of his hand, the surroundings instantly lit up with water moons, moving the bloody scene of the entire Shituoling into the surroundings.

There are not only pictures, sounds, but even the tactile sensation of crunching bones being crushed.

Tang Xuanzang's lips turned white, his whole body trembled, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Tathagata looked at Tang Xuanzang who was trembling under the tragic situation, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

"Look, this is your Hinayana Dharma...When encountering such a thing, you can only stand by and watch, hiding here in fear, while my Mahayana Dharma of Xitian..."

He smiled contemptuously and waved his hand proudly.

In the picture, the little demon who was chewing a thigh, his head exploded with a bang, and his body fell to the ground weakly.

The little monsters around glanced at it one after another, and then swooped up, turning the monster that had just died into food.

They are demons, but their animal nature has not been eliminated.

It's still the way of being a beast - those who are not dead are brothers, and those who are dead are just food.

But just as they pounced halfway, their heads exploded.

The headless body hit the ground heavily, no different from the blood food they were eating just now.

The blood in the illusion splashed on Tang Xuanzang's bloodless face.

It looks extremely fragile.

Tathagata suddenly laughed wildly: "This is my Mahayana Dharma!!!"

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Every body exploded.

Until the last body exploded, he said slowly: "You should think about it carefully."

Everything around slowly disappeared.

Tang Xuanzang slowly opened his eyes until there was no more sound around him.

He looked devastated.

This kind of scene is too cruel, so that he dare not look directly at it.
At this moment, he realized how small and weak he was.

He doesn't even have the ability to resist, so he can only be at the mercy of others.

"The Hinayana Buddhism, one-hearted pursuit of goodness, is it really right?"

He silently looked at the sky and asked himself.

"Mahayana...Hinayana...Mahayana..."
Tang Xuanzang muttered to himself, full of pain and helplessness in his heart.

He wanted to leave here, but couldn't help himself.

Now sentient beings are in hell, and he is also in purgatory.

"Master!!!"
A cry of surprise suddenly fell into Tang Xuanzang's ears.

This is!

Tang Xuanzang opened his eyes wide and looked into the empty room: "Wukong? Is it Wukong?"

A small flying insect appeared in front of Tang Xuanzang.

It went around a little bit, and landed gently on Tang Xuanzang's palm, and the sound as thin as a mosquito's snoring quietly entered Tang Xuanzang's ears.

"Master, I'm Wukong, Junior Brother Sha, Bajie and Stone are outside, I'll take you away first!"

Tang Xuanzang's face was happy, but also sad.

He shook his head in pain: "No! No, I can't leave!"

Monkey King was very surprised: "Why?"

Tang Xuanzang looked pained: "If I leave, doesn't it mean that the Hinayana Buddhism is not as good as his Mahayana Buddhism?"

"No! I will never!"

"I just want to prove that my Hinayana Dharma that guides people to be good is by no means inferior to the Mahayana Dharma of the Western Paradise!"

Sun Wukong was surprised.

After all, Tang Xuanzang is not a god now.

He is just a mere mortal who just accidentally fell into the eyes of the immortals and Buddhas in the sky.

But the courage he is showing now is more like a fairy than him.

Sun Wukong thought for a while, and said again: "Master, you...are you really not going with me?"

"As long as we reach Xitian, we can still argue against him."

"No!"

Tang Xuanzang opened his eyes sharply, his eyes were shining brightly, as if they were glowing: "I only now understand that this debate on Buddhist principles has already begun as early as the moment we started our westward journey."

He looked at the boundless sea of ​​blood and purgatory outside the window, his face was full of compassion and kindness, mixed with helpless pain.

But underneath that is the inexhaustible belief in the Hinayana Buddhism that leads people to be good.

"If I bow my head, I admit that the Tathagata is right. If I run away, the Tathagata will think that I am afraid of his suffering. The Hinayana Dharma is not as good as the Mahayana Dharma. My momentum will be lost."

"I do not want to!"
He clenched his fists.

He was not reconciled.

He doesn't want to give up!
Tang Xuanzang clenched his fists tightly.
