Chapter 226 Lingshan Debate Zen

Chapter 226 Lingshan Debate Zen
Ninety-nine and 81 difficulties have been accomplished, and the gate of Lingshan is opened.

The void parted to the two sides, revealing a grand and misty door of space, and the majestic spiritual mountain in the distance could be vaguely seen.

Su Mo took five people including Chen Xuanzang, and walked into the gate of space.

"Is the visitor a Buddhist?"

A squinting Toutuo stood at the foot of the mountain, looking at Su Mo and his party with a smile.

Su Mo observed the aura of this Thutuo, and it turned out to be very powerful, not much weaker than Monkey King, presumably it should be the number one power in Lingshan.

To let such a great monk stand at the foot of the mountain to greet him, I don't know what the Tathagata is thinking.

"I came to Lingshan not to learn scriptures, but to ask Zen."

Su Mo looked at the squint-eyed monk and said.

"Ask Zen? Ask what? What is there to ask?"

The great monk narrowed his eyes even smaller, and asked like a lion's roar.

"Hush... I want to start now? I want to ask Zen, but not you. You are not qualified. I am asking about the Buddha sitting in the Great Hall of Your Home."

Su Mo made a gesture of silence. The great monk wanted to fight on behalf of the Tathagata. He wanted to show Su Mo his power first. How could Su Mo follow his mind.

"What's your name? Don't you know how powerful my master is? Even if you Buddha came, you wouldn't dare to talk to my master like that."

Miss Duan asked the monk with squinting eyes.

"The poor monk Ah Nilou, according to the order of the Buddha, welcomes the Buddhist scriptures here."

The squint-eyed monk recited the Buddha's name, clasped his hands together and said to the crowd.

It turned out to be Venerable Ah Nilou!
This is not some unknown person, but a great venerable, a remarkable figure among the five hundred arhats of the Western Paradise.

It is said that Venerable Anilou, Ananda, Nanda, Upali, etc. became disciples when the Buddha returned to his hometown after becoming enlightened.

After becoming a monk, Ah Ni Lou practiced Taoism diligently, which can be regarded as a model.

He once fell asleep during the Buddha's teaching, and was reprimanded by the Buddha, but he swore not to sleep, so he suffered from eye disease and became blind.

However, his practice improved and his eyes gradually opened, and he finally became the "first eye of the sky" among Buddhist disciples, able to see sentient beings in the six realms of heaven and earth in ten directions.

When the Buddha passed away, he stood in front of the Nirvana bed to guard him.After the Buddha's Nirvana, he once carried forward the Dharma in the world, waiting for the Buddha to return to the Western Paradise.

"It turned out to be a great power who opened the 'eyes of the mind'! No wonder he always squints his eyes."

Su Mo smiled, then clasped his hands together, and bowed to Venerable Ah Nilou.

Such a Buddhist power is still worthy of his salute.

"My lord, please take us to meet the Buddha."

"The Buddha has been waiting in the hall for a long time, all the Buddhist scriptures, please come with me."

As Venerable Ah Nilou said, he led the way ahead and led the people up the mountain step by step along the stone steps of Lingshan Mountain.

"I said Venerable Ah Nilou, why don't we just fly up? How long will it take to walk like this step by step?"

Miss Duan walked a few steps, only felt that the stone steps of Lingshan were high and long, every step was like a split, she was really tired, she couldn't help complaining.

"My benefactor, Lingshan is a Buddhist holy place, and you must climb the mountain with a pious heart."

"Speaking of which, even if you don't have a pious heart and want to fly up, Lingshan is absolutely forbidden, and all flying spells will be useless here. Moreover, the air-forbidden spell of Lingshan was arranged by the Buddha himself, unless the cultivation level exceeds the Buddha, Otherwise, it is impossible to break through the forbidden air formation."

"Do you think your ability can surpass the Buddha? If you really think so, then you can try it."

Venerable Ah Nilou said with a smile that he was very confident in the Buddha's air-forbidden formation, and even wanted to watch a show.

"Hmph, it's just a way to break the formation, wait for my old grandson to break it!"

Sun Wukong is the most resentful of Tathagata Buddha, and he came to Lingshan to hate him. Now he heard that Tathagata personally arranged Lingshan's forbidden space formation, and he immediately refused to accept it.

He chattered endlessly, and when he moved, he was about to fly.

At this time, Sun Wukong is using the somersault cloud, which is the supreme body technique, the top of the flying body technique, a somersault is a hundred and eight thousand miles, if he is really turned over by him, the past few months The Journey to the West was also gone in vain, and I went straight back to the original point.

"rise!"

Sun Wukong made a somersault upwards, his feet left the ground, and flew up.

But... after only flying three feet, a large net densely covered with electric arcs suddenly appeared in the air, knocking Monkey King down from the air.

"Hey! This old Tathagata has bullied me too much!"

Sun Wukong was so shocked that his monkey hairs exploded. He looked very miserable, and his hatred for Tathagata immediately increased by +10086.

Because of his anger, he didn't notice that the corners of Venerable Ah Nilou's eyes twitched unconsciously.

"It can fly up to three feet, this monkey head has grown up again! I have to guard against it!"

Venerable Ah Nilou murmured silently in his heart.

Venerable Arhat in Lingshan could not even lift his feet three feet off the ground in the formation of Tathagata, but Sun Wukong was able to fly three feet, which really surprised Venerable Ah Nilou.

"Wukong, don't worry, you will see Tathagata Buddha soon."

Su Mo smiled, stretched out his hand, and a flash of spiritual light emanated from his fingertips, connecting his five apprentices with each other.

"I have already seen the Daxiong Hall and the Tathagata Buddha on the lotus seat. He has been waiting for us for too long, so let's not let him wait any longer."

After Su Mo finished speaking, the figure disappeared from the spot.

Chen Xuanzang, Monkey King and others also followed Su Mo and disappeared in place.

"Huh? Where did this go?"

The Venerable Ah Nilou opened his mouth in surprise, not only did the pilgrim fly by himself, but he even took several of his apprentices with him?

And it seems that it is not just a simple flight, but a magical power similar to teleportation?
Venerable Ah Nilou raised his eyes to look at the top of the Lingshan Mountain, and looked at the Daxiong Palace shrouded in the Buddha's light and Sanskrit singing. His feet jumped quickly and rushed towards the top of the mountain at extreme speed.

Although he can't fly, Venerable Ah Nilou can run fast, which he is very proud of.

……

On the top of Lingshan Mountain, a palace with an imposing manner that cannot be described in words stands on the top of the mountain.

On both sides of the main hall, there were two venerables standing. Seeing Su Mo and others appearing, they made a "please" gesture without asking any more questions, and respectfully invited them to enter the main hall.

Su Mo walked into the main hall. On both sides were five hundred arhats of different shapes, making various expressions, and posing in various poses. Right in front of them was a nine-grade lotus platform, on which sat a great Buddha who was sympathetic to the world.

It is the Tathagata himself.

On the left and right sides of Tathagata are Manjusri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. These two are great Bodhisattvas and are revered in Buddhism.

And there is a person standing under the lotus pedestal, holding a jade purification bottle in his hand, with a compassionate face. Compared with the two great Bodhisattvas Manjushri and Samantabhadra, he is not weaker than the two great Bodhisattvas. He is the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering.

"Bold, when you see the Buddha, why don't you worship!"

Fuhu Arhat, one of the five hundred Arhats, had no intention of bowing down to the Buddha after seeing Su Mo and the others enter the hall.

Chen Xuanzang: "Hehe".

Originally, Chen Xuanzang was the most devout to the Buddha among all the people, and the person most likely to kneel down to worship the Buddha, but now he has become the least likely one.

He was reincarnated for the tenth life by the Buddha, and was eaten by the sand monk for the ninth life. The appearance of his death was really miserable.

"Hehe, Jin Chanzi, long time no see, you finally returned to Lingshan again."

The Tathagata Buddha sat on the lotus platform, looked at Chen Xuanzang and said.

Chen Xuanzang: "Jin Chanzi? Isn't Jin Chanzi dead? You killed him yourself, did you forget?"

Chen Xuanzang was suppressing the anger in his heart, but his anger value was still soaring, and he was about to be unable to suppress it.

"Bold Jinchan, how dare you talk to the World Honored One? The World Honored One is your master, are you going to deceive your master and destroy your ancestor?"

Manjusri Bodhisattva riding a lion, holding a Buddhist sword, shouted and asked Chen Xuanzang.

"Bah! Right and wrong, you all met that day, and now you can still talk to me like this, it's really shameless. But I don't care about you, my current master is Master Su."

"Master Su said that on this trip to Lingshan, you must convince people with reason."

Chen Xuanzang snorted coldly, and suppressed his anger with his Buddha nature.

A long time ago, he became a Buddha. He is the Buddha of Theravada Buddhism. His Buddha nature is really extraordinary.

"Benefactor Su, you didn't come to Lingshan to learn Buddhist scriptures, so why did you steal the opportunity of the Buddhists? If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation for thousands of Buddhas today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of Lingshan."

Tathagata smiled and said to Su Mo.

"Oh? If you can't get out of Lingshan, what are you going to do with me?"

Su Mo sneered.

"You can always be accompanied by the green lantern, the morning bell and the evening drum, and be my Buddhist disciple."

Tathagata said solemnly and calmly.

"It turns out that you want to save me. Then I have a question I want to ask. If you want to take me into Buddhism, please tell me, what is Buddhism?"

Su Mo started to debate Zen. Although his level of Buddhism is not high, he has Baidu!
He made a special trip back to Su Garden before, and opened a door of space connected to the present world in Su Garden, and the signal came from the door of space.

Then his mobile phone was able to access the Internet. He searched for a while and checked countless information, all of which were recorded in his mind. This is also the capital he dared to come to debate Zen with Tathagata today.

The Zen debate started, and the two began to say some mysterious things.

Tathagata: "The door of Buddhism is wide open, and everything you see is a door of Buddhism."

Su Mo: "In this case, why do you want to imprison me in Lingshan? Wherever you see is the gate of Buddhism, the brothel in the mortal world, the hell in the underworld, and the sea of ​​blood of Asura are also the gate of Buddhism. Don't cross them?"

Tathagata: "If the Buddha crosses himself, if he has enlightenment, he will enter my door."

Su Mo: "Then what's the use of you!"

Tathagata: "..."

"If all living beings in the world attain Buddha-nature, I can save myself from extinction."

Su Mo: "Speaking is better than singing. You Buddhists always make great wishes. Then let me ask you again, what is compassion?"

Tathagata: "Compassion is awe, treating all life equally. Sweeping the floor does not hurt the lives of ants, and cherishing the lamps covered with moths. All spiritual things in the world are the mercy of the Buddha."

At this time, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva interjected, "Haven't you heard the story of my Buddha feeding an eagle with his body? The Buddha loves all living beings and never leaves them."

Then Samantabhadra Bodhisattva spoke eloquently, telling Su Mo a story about Tathagata's early years.

When the Tathagata was still Shakyamuni, he went out once and happened to meet a hungry eagle chasing a poor dove.

The pigeon said to the eagle: "Let me go! You are hunting now, if you miss me, there is another one; I am running for my life now, I only have one life!"

The eagle said: "Why don't I know what you're saying? But I'm starving now, and I can't live without eating you. Life is not easy for everyone in this world, and I won't chase after you unless I'm cornered. Forget it."

When Shizun heard the compassionate heart, he reached out to hold the dove and hid it in his arms.

The eagle was furious, so he had to reason with Shizun: "Shizun, you are so merciful and merciful, you saved the pigeon's life, so it's so difficult that I, the eagle, will starve to death?"

Shi Zun said: "I don't want you to hurt this innocent pigeon, and I don't want you to starve to death in vain. There is a saying that if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell will go to hell."

In order to save the dove, Sakyamuni said to the eagle: "I will replace this dove with my own flesh."

The eagle said: "Yes, but it must be the same meat as the pigeon."

So Shi Zun took out a balance, put pigeons on one side, and put the meat cut from himself on the other.

Although the pigeon looked small, no matter how much flesh was cut by Shi Zun, it seemed that it could not support its weight.

When Shakyamuni cut off the last piece of flesh, the balance finally balanced!
The situation of the world changed color, and the real Buddha was born.

Puxian Bodhisattva's storytelling ability is first-class, and the story is so tear-jerking that even the five hundred arhats in the Buddha Hall almost knew the story by heart, they couldn't help crying.

Tathagata was very satisfied, and Pu Xian won his heart.

Su Mo listened quietly, but smiled and said: "Buddha loves all living beings, all life is the same in your eyes. You can't bear the dove to be eaten, and you don't want the eagle to starve to death, so it's really amazing to cut meat and feed the eagle. "

"But let me ask you, isn't your own life your own life? When you were protecting the pigeons and feeding the eagles with your body, did you ever think that you are the same life as them?"

Tathagata: "This..."

He had nothing to say, and secretly scolded Su Mo for not following the routine.

In that touching story, he was very selfless, but Su Mo used his selflessness as an excuse to refute his argument that "all living beings are equal".

Because he himself is among all sentient beings!

"Mahayana Buddhism is always merciful and forbearing, but it is the most cruel to oneself. Then let me ask, are you not your own monsters?"

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, a pot exploded in the Daxiong Palace.

Compassion is for others, and cruelty is for oneself. From the perspective of "self", they are "self" monsters, and there is nothing wrong with that!
This almost shook the faith of many Arhat Bodhisattvas in the Great Hall of the Great Hero, and made them confused about the career of practicing Buddhism.

Tathagata immediately changed his face, looked at Su Mo, and then at Chen Xuanzang, the coldness in his eyes flashed away.

Chen Xuanzang sneered: "Why, don't you want to kill my master as if you were killing me?"
