Transcending the quasi-tidy history of the great struggle

Saha Pure Land of the Western Heaven, inside Daleiyin Temple.

"The matter here is over." Sakyamuni nodded when he saw that the Buddhists had returned to the Pure Land of the Western Paradise.

"From this point of view, Styx is by no means just Xiaoyao's subordinates. Otherwise, all my disciples would mobilize and lay siege to Styx, and he would take the risk of exposing his position to rescue Styx. This is not in line with his usual practice." How to do it." Zhunti thought about it, and said slowly.

"Xiaoyao is narrow-minded, gloomy, and has always been self-centered, which is really uncharacteristic." Jieyin also agreed with Zhunti's inference.

But just as he was thinking about it, a boy outside came to report that it was Manjusri, Puxian, Guanshiyin, and Dashizhi who were seeking an audience outside.

After being ushered in and let them in, the four of them reported back and forth about the Shituoling and his party, and then they were ordered to retreat.

After a while, Sakyamuni sighed: "You two have seen it too, this is going to put us on the fire!"

Zhunti counted them one by one: "The green ox, the golden horn, and the silver horn are the mounts of Lao Tzu, the bull demon king is the mount of Tongtian, the saint of Jiuling Yuan is the mount of Taiyi under the Yuqing sect, the white deer is the mount of the South Pole, and the immortal of the three powers is the mount of Taiyi. Chanjiao Yun Zhongzi's registered disciples, Qiushou Xian and four people returned to the Tongtian sect, Kui Mulang is not only a member of the heavenly court, but also a disciple of Jiejiao, and even a boy under Maitreya..."

"Yes, if we rashly send people to kill these people, it will not only violate the compassionate intention of Buddhism, but also create karma with all forces, especially the Sanqing sect." Jie Yin said.

Zhunti agreed: "What brother said is very true, cause and effect are easy to tie and difficult to explain. A little carelessness will involve more monks, like a snowball, and eventually become entangled in karma, and even saints will be involved. Back then How did the war of interpretation and interception come about, and why did the two sects have to fight each other?"

"If a person's mount is killed, and the owner of the mount doesn't come to take revenge, wouldn't it make the subordinates feel cold? If he comes to take revenge, it will become a entanglement of cause and effect. Xuanzang's journey to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures should not be fueled into a calamity."

"Moreover, it is true that the Taoists in the human world are dissatisfied with my teaching." Shakyamuni paid more attention to the preaching in the human world, so he said what he had seen in the past, "People in the Taoist school flew to the earth and immortal world, the heavens and the saints of various religions. Then this kind of dissatisfaction will be brought into it, accumulating over time, and contagious from generation to generation. It is a matter of concern. If these demon kings fuel the flames and artificially increase cause and effect, sooner or later, Buddhism and Taoism will be separated from each other like in the past. It’s the same as teaching, to end the robbery.”

"Xuanzang's pilgrimage to the West was originally a matter that affected both Buddhism and Taoism in China. Before Xuanzang met Sun Wukong, he was embarrassed by many Taoist sects in the world. Interfere with him. It wasn't until Xuanzang left the border of the Tang Dynasty and passed the Five Elements Mountain that he survived."

Although Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was a servant, he was borrowed by Zhunti to take charge of Xuanzang's affairs.On weekdays, Bodhisattvas often come to report Xuanzang's current situation to Zhunti, so he understands it very clearly.

"This is also the reason why I sent Dashizhi to go, but didn't let him kill." Jieyin sighed softly, "Whether they are voluntary, bewitched or controlled by the Son of the Blood God, we must deal with them carefully, and we must not irritate all parties. The sect forces have turned this catastrophe into a calamity, and it is necessary for Xuanzang and the others to get through this place safely."

"Reverend Taiyi and Immortal of the South Pole, they are now the Qinghua Emperor of the East Pole and the Changsheng Emperor of the South Pole. Disciples are in danger... In the same way, the other demon kings should also be careful." Zhunti nodded and said, "So, if the masters of each family are invited to subdue the mounts and disciples, they are afraid of being possessed by the son of the blood god... Nah."

"Well, things still have to be resolved one by one." Sakyamuni said, "The three demons of Shituoling are nominally the host, and they also claim to be the disciples of Jiejiao. What does the teacher think?"

"Duobao." The introduction was concise and to the point.

Zhunti's eyes lit up: "Senior brother, it's him!"

Daoist Duobao is the first disciple of Jiejiao, who has been detached from Daluo for a long time.Back then in the Ten Thousand Immortal Formation, when he was crushed by the sword energy of the Jade Immortals and was about to be annihilated, Zhun raised his hand to protect his remaining soul and rescued him.After that, the water of Bade Pool was used to nourish the spirit and soul, and make up for the remaining spirit.

The primordial spirit of Duobao was first protected by the lotus, and then nourished by the water of the Bade Pond, and it was contaminated with the breath of Buddhism. If it is to practice again, it will naturally practice Buddhism*, just like the fellow disciples of the Three Thousand Sections.However, Duobao himself has a strong affection for Jiejiao and insists on rejoining Biyou's sect to practice the Dao of Shangqing.

In the past, Manjusri and others were forced to join Buddhism only after being contaminated with the breath of Buddhism in their bodies, so that they could continue to practice.Not to mention where the fundamental soul of a practitioner is?Once the primordial spirit is contaminated with the breath of Buddhism, even if it is reincarnated, the root bone will only be suitable for practicing Buddhism, so how can it enter the Taoism again?What's more, Zhunti saved him, which was like a gift of rebirth. In order to repay the karma, he also had to practice in the west.

Fortunately, Duobao is also a genius of the sky. After thinking hard for several days, he unexpectedly came up with a best-of-both-worlds strategy--dividing his soul into two, and that bit of obsession with the Tao wrapped up the most fundamental soul. The brand of consciousness returned to Taoism, and most of the soul remained in Buddhism, so that he could re-enter Biyou's sect, and repay the favor of the two sages in the West for restoring the soul.

The two saints of the West have a deep and sincere feeling, so they specially taught him the method of beheading the wish and incarnation, so that he can further separate his obsession with the Tao and the obsession with repaying gratitude, and invited two saints, Yuanshi and Tongtian, to help him.Yuanshi protected Duobao Yuanshen with Sanguang Shenshui, and Tongtian carefully imprinted Duobao's fundamental spiritual consciousness with the re-refined Qingping Sword and cut off his obsession with the Tao, and then reshaped the fairy body for him with Biyou Secret Technique In the physical body, use Sanguang Shenshui to restore his primordial spirit.

Since then, Duobao has been divided into two parts, one part continues to serve as the first disciple of Jiejiao and Duobao Taoist under Tongtianmen; Meng Shizun used the "Lotus Sutra" as a hint, practiced the Mahayana Bodhisattva way, achieved the Buddha's fruit position, named Many Treasures Tathagata, and opened up a pure land, named Baojing.

This Duobao Tathagata and Jujiao Duobao Taoist came from the same origin, and their minds are connected.Nowadays, those demon kings claiming to be disciples of Jiejiao, although most of them are talking to themselves, but if it is true—even if there is only a one-ten-thousandth possibility—it must be worrying.Under such circumstances, it would be inconvenient for the Three Sages of Buddhism to go to Biyou Palace to inquire in person.Let Duobao Tathagata secretly ask Taoist Duobao, which is the best choice.

Zhunti immediately ordered people to invite Duobao Tathagata to Daleiyin Temple to share the matter with him, and Duobao Tathagata readily agreed.

"Reporting to Teacher, Qiu Shouxian and others did come to Biyou Palace to pay homage to Tongtian Sage a few days ago. They claimed that they had obtained the consent of the three teachers and asked to return to the sect of Jiejiao. Tongtian Sage had not yet agreed, saying that they wanted to find time to come to the west to meet with the three. Meet with the teacher." After communicating with Daoist Duobao, Duobao Tathagata said to the three sages and Buddhas.

"That's easy." Zhunti nodded and said, "Let's explain the matter clearly to Fellow Daoist Sanqing face to face, and discuss with them a perfect plan."

"Good." Jieyin and Sakyamuni nodded.Then Jieyin raised his hand and pointed, and the water vapor in front of him condensed three mirrors, and the three mirrors on the opposite side were Laozi, Yuanshi and Tongtian.

"The three fellow Taoists came to see me in such a hurry, what's the matter?" Lao Tzu asked leisurely.

Among the sages, if it is not an important matter, they have always let the boys and the disciples pass the news on their behalf, or notify the door in advance of the visit. It is rare that there is such a direct communication through the air.

Zhunti explained the matter to Sanqing in detail. The expressions of the three people on the opposite side were different. Lao Tzu was still in a daze, but when he heard that Qingniu, Jinjiao and Yinjiao were killed, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. With a solemn face, two thick charcoal-black eyebrows were furrowed, and a bit of murderous intent had already risen between Tong Tian's eyebrows.

After Zhunti finished speaking, Lao Tzu replied decisively: "My three brothers have absolutely no intention of fighting Buddhism. Please rest assured, the three fellow Taoists. The Shituoling incident must be Xiaoyao's sowing dissension and keeping my Taoist school in the dark. inside."

"Senior brother is very true." Yuan Shi echoed.

"What a happy man, dare to bully me like this, how can we give up with him?!" Tong Tian slapped the table and said angrily.

"Then how to solve the Shituoling incident?" Zhunti asked.

"It's better to be still than to move." Lao Tzu said slowly, "The matter has come to this point, and it cannot be reversed by force. I will follow the trend."

Yuan Shidao: "That's right, with the enemy in the abyss of chaos, it is not appropriate for Buddhism and Taoism to fight each other. This time is just a good opportunity to resolve the contradictions between Buddhism and Taoism in the human world."

Tongtian and the two elder brothers have been together for countless years, and they have known each other's minds for a long time. He explained to the three Buddhist saints: "The three of us will tell the Taoism of the world. Fate should be a calamity. Once it passes, Buddhism can sit on an equal footing with Taoism in the human world. If it cannot pass, Buddhism will only be a side door. The number of days is determined by heaven, and Taoism in the human world cannot intervene."

"Not only in the human world, but all the disciples of the Sanqing sect must be like this. Regardless of life or death on Shituoling, those who are not involved in it must not take revenge afterwards." Yuanshi added, "As a price, I would like to ask the three fellow Taoists to restrain the disciples under the sect so that they will also be punished." No meddling, no revenge."

Hearing this, Shakyamuni smiled thoughtfully, but Zhunti still didn't understand: "But even so, Xuanzang and his party still can't get over this difficulty..."

"Fellow daoists are concerned," Yuan Shi raised his voice, "In my opinion, there are three difficulties in this catastrophe. One is the connection of cause and effect, which will attract the other disciples of the two families into the catastrophe; Lingbao is difficult to deal with; the third is that the demon king has a lot of people and power, and it is difficult to fight with two fists. If it is purely based on strength, the four are not bad."

Zhunti heard the words, looked at the mortal world with the eyes of the mortal world, and found that he paid too little attention to their own practice——Xuanzang practiced the Mahayana Bodhisattva way, and now his wish is close to completion, and his realm is at least the eighth level Bodhisattva , if he can obtain the scriptures, it is also possible to attain the Buddhahood.Sun Wukong honed all the way and reached the realm of the Great Bodhisattva. He didn't know what the monkey's original wish was, but it probably had something to do with learning scriptures.Zhu Wuneng and Sha Wujing are now in the Arhat realm.

The strangest thing is the white dragon horse, who carried Xuanzang on his own body to travel westward, worked hard all the way, listened to scriptures and practiced silently, and coincided with patience, generosity, precepts, diligence, meditation, and the six paramitas of Prajna, which are exactly what Buddhist Bodhisattvas do. Originally a little fairy, but now he is also in the realm of a Bodhisattva!

"I always pay attention to whether their journey is safe and smooth, but I ignore them... Yes, with such strength, they are indeed not afraid of a single demon king." Zhunti sighed secretly, and said to Yuanshi, "Thank you, Brother Dao, for your guidance. "

"It doesn't matter, within the range of Shituoling, the space is reversed by the books of the earth, and it is synchronized with the world of the earth and immortals. Xuanzang and Sun Wukong can display their full strength. As long as the plan is proper, they will not be able to deal with those demon kings." Yuan Shi smiled. road.

"As for the magic weapons, the most powerful ones are nothing more than elder brother's King Kong Zhuo and Kunpeng's yin and yang cylinders..." Speaking of Kunpeng, Tongtian couldn't help but sigh, "Back then, the demon master Kunpeng was also a hero. , and we also have some friendship, I don't want to be killed by Xiaoyao villain in my reincarnation!"

"Xiaoyao can't stay within the Dao of Heaven for a long time. The last time he plundered the Styx River was the limit, and I don't know what method he used to infect so many people with the Blood God Son..." Zhunti said, suddenly realized, "Yes Oh, Book from the Earth! It records the name of an immortal in the Earth Immortal Realm. He can use this thing to use the hand of Styx to cast the Blood God Son from the air. No wonder the Heavenly Dao cannot find him after a double relationship! "

"No, what about Taiqing and Yuqing, two fellow Taoists? The sect of saints has never been above the book of the earth." Jieyin said.

"It's the golden horn, the silver horn..." Lao Tzu sighed and closed his eyes, recalling the scene he saw in Zixiao Palace, he looked even older, "The two of them stole my magic weapon and ran out of Xuandu Heaven , I went to the fairy world to be happy and happy. I wanted to pamper them for a while, and then find them when they get bored and their hearts fade away. I never thought of..."

All the sages present were silent, they all understood what Lao Tzu meant.If you are a disciple of a sage, if you don’t bring a sage amulet with you, it will be automatically recorded in the book of the earth when you go to the earth immortal world. It is at that time that Jinjiao and Yinjiao were killed, and then the son of the blood god controlled them to go to the Sanqing dojo and fight with them. Heavenly Court killed Qingniu, Kuimulang and others.

"Wait, Kui Mulang." Tong Tian suddenly thought of something.

The author has something to say: If you still don't understand Xiaoyao's plan, the next chapter will continue to explain it.
