"Tianpeng, you are really stubborn." Fairy Chang'e said with a cold expression.
There is no one who can fall into the same pit twice. With this kind of character, no wonder he was abandoned by Emperor Ziwei and Great Heavenly Lord at the same time. It is completely unworthy of virtue.
Fortunately, she had some sympathy for him before, but now she sees that this guy is too mud to hold up the wall.
Seeing these big guys, Zhu Bajie wanted to cry without tears, and his intestines were almost green with regret.
He was really blinded by lard before. Thinking about it, there is a luxurious mansion in the wilderness, and there is a pretty widow with four beautiful daughters. Is this normal?
It was obviously a trap, but he jumped in stupidly, which was so stupid.
Zhu Bajie could only admit his mistake with tears in his eyes, and promised again and again that he would never get into trouble because of his beauty, so the four girls let him go.
After teaching Tianpeng a lesson, the Queen Mother, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Jiutian Xuannv and Chang'e Fairy were chatting and laughing as they set up the auspicious clouds and left the place. The luxurious mansion in the mountains also disappeared in a burst of clouds and smoke.
The destination was different. After traveling together for a while, Guanyin Bodhisattva bid farewell to the Queen Mother and others.
Before leaving, she did not forget to remind these high-level female immortals in heaven, saying:
"Fellow Taoists, there have been some villains who have interfered recently. The journey to the West has been full of twists and turns, and the uncertainty has increased. I hope that some fellow Taoists can help with some matters and take care of me."
The Queen Mother, the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens, and the Fairy Chang'e took advantage of Buddhism and naturally agreed, saying that they would increase their efforts to support the Buddhist scripture project in the future. They also comforted the Bodhisattva and told her not to worry. The scene looked happy and happy.
Afterwards, three high-level female fairies ascended in the clouds and returned to heaven.
Looking at a few auspicious clouds disappearing in the eastern sky, Guanyin Bodhisattva withdrew his gaze. There was no joy on his face, his eyes were worried, and he sighed:
"I hope everything will get better."
Originally, she wanted to invite Manjushri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva to participate in this team-building activity for the Four Saints to test their Zen hearts, and then invite the leader of the neutral camp, Mother Lishan, to share the cake, keep in touch with each other, and protect herself.
The basic base of power.
But now, in order to win the support of Heaven, Buddhism had to give away more benefits, and her little idea came to nothing.
This was still a trivial matter. She was most afraid that the mastermind behind the scenes would continue to cause trouble and completely ruin the Xitian Scripture Learning Project, which would be the end of it.
Buddhism has invested too many resources in scripture collection projects.
If the project fails, she, as the person in charge, will bear the blame. It is not just her who will be unlucky. If the cost cannot be recovered, the entire Buddhist sect may be severely damaged. What will happen then is unpredictable.
She couldn't bear the consequences of the failure of the Buddhist scriptures project, and she didn't want to become a sinner for the entire Buddhist community, so she had become increasingly anxious and uneasy recently.
"Hahahahaha, isn't this the merciful and compassionate Guanshiyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering? Your face doesn't look good."
A dark blue magic cloud floated over, dark thunder flashed, and the evil aura was awe-inspiring.
"who?"
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's gaze condensed, Buddha light surged around his body, a huge golden wheel of merit appeared behind his head, lotus flowers grew in the sky, and within the radiance, the pure land emerged, which was sacred and extraordinary!
"Whoa!"
The demonic cloud stagnated and split into thousands in an instant. A series of distorted, blurred, and grotesque demonic shadows stood in the high air around her, surrounding her.
The devil has no form, blends into the void, is formless, shadowless, and elusive.
Guanyin Bodhisattva's dark eyebrows are tightly knitted, her white skirt is fluttering, and her graceful figure stands in a splendid Buddhist pure land. She is also protected by the golden light of merit and virtue, making her pure and holy, making it difficult for all evil to invade.
"boom"
Before those demonic figures could get close, they were injured by the bright Buddha light on her body. Her body was riddled with holes, or the golden Buddha flames were ignited, and she fell from the sky!
Her slender jade hands had already been placed on the willow branch of the Jade Pure Vase, ready to launch an attack at any time, but she was unable to locate the true form of the demon at the moment and did not act rashly.
With a solemn look on her face, her whole body surrounded by brilliant Buddha light, she scolded:
"Bo Xun, what do you want to do?"
The Heavenly Demon's strength was originally far behind hers, but she had gone one step further by observing the Nirvana process of Emperor Gouchen reuniting his body and soul in the Immortal Pond of the Wa Palace.
However, the demon seems to be stronger at this time.
The formless demons, with their billions of incarnations, covered the sky and the sun with overwhelming force, like a flock of black crows flying into the flames, surrounding a huge golden lantern.
There are constant phantoms of demons burning and falling in the scorching light of the Buddha. However, the demonic shadows are numerous and rapidly differentiate. Dark clouds cover the sun and ants bite the elephant to death.
"hey-hey……"
The cold laughter echoed through the sky, causing the sky and the earth to float, as if it could stir up the deepest darkness in people's hearts.
Guanyin Bodhisattva's worries about the prospects of the Buddhist scriptures project and the fear of Gouchen came to mind at the same time. Her soul was dusty and there was a dark red glow in her eyes.
She was slightly startled, and hurriedly guarded the empty spiritual platform, her soul was shining, and she recited Buddhist sutras, and the sound of Zen music resounded throughout the world.
"Whoa!"
Then, she flicked the willow branch in her hand, and a ray of green light broke through the air, turning into countless meteor-like light rain and scattering, instantly brushing away thousands of demonic shadows.
The sky shook, and a bright light appeared, like the first clear sky after rain, dispelling the evil spirit.
The demonic cloud receded like the tide, and a strange and unpredictable demonic shadow stood in the distance a hundred miles away. Its figure was blurred, making it difficult to see its true form, and it was erratic.
"Bah bang bang!"
Tianmo Boxun suffered a small loss, but was not angry. He clapped his hands and praised, "What a move. The Buddha's light has just appeared. The true meaning of Tathagata's palm has been integrated into the magical power of spring breeze and rain. Learn and use it flexibly, and you don't live in the shadow of Buddha."
Wow, amazing."
Guanyin Bodhisattva was unmoved, his eyes flashed with Buddha light, and he shouted coldly:
"Bo Xun, does the Demon Temple want to start a war with Lingshan?"
"Haha, Bodhisattva, don't be so aggressive. I came with good intentions this time."
"Good intentions?" Guanyin Bodhisattva scoffed with a cold expression.
The demon opened his arms, as if to embrace the whole world, and said loudly:
"Yes, anyone with a discerning eye can now see that the great rise of Buddhism is just a reflection of the so-called righteous camp. The end of myth, the ups and downs of the devil, and the great rise of the devil are the general trend of heaven in the mythical era!"
"It's nonsense, I don't know what it means!"
"Venerable Guanyin, do you really think so? Do you think that relying on the Western Heaven to obtain scriptures and the spread of Buddhism to the East will save your Buddhist sect?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. What have you Buddhists done? You know clearly that the way of heaven is supreme and selfless, but it also pays attention to balance. Since the beginning of the two saints, how many great wishes have you made in Western Buddhism, and how much merit and luck have you borrowed from heaven, earth and all living beings?
Can you afford it? Can you fulfill your promise?"
"..."
"Bodhisattva, good birds choose trees to roost in. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Buddhism is already a leaky ship that is about to sink. It's time for smart people to seek a way out."
Guanyin Bodhisattva's face was livid, her delicate body was trembling with anger, and she scolded:
"Demon, shut up, who do you think you are? Do you dare to talk about the two saints and slander Buddhism?"
"Lies are just floating clouds, and the truth is the most hurtful. Venerable Guanyin, you should really look in the mirror and see how uneasy and embarrassed you are now. If you are really so confident in Lingshan and Buddhism, why did you waver just now?
"The demon sneered.
Just now, he used the "Magic of Self-Contained Demons to Confuse the Heart and Lead to Tribulation" to successfully get through the gap and invade her mind.
Although it only took a moment for her to resolve it, it still explained the problem.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for him to use this method from a distance to affect Guanyin Bodhisattva, who has a profound Buddhist realm, a firm will and Taoist heart, and almost no flaws in his mind.
There are already flaws in her current state of mind...
Guanyin Bodhisattva's face was gloomy and uncertain. He held the jade purification vase and held the willow branch tightly with his five fingers without making a sound.
Facts speak louder than words. She showed her timidity just now. This is an indisputable fact.
"Hey, it seems that you can't make up your mind just yet. It doesn't matter. We are very patient. The door of the Demon Temple is always open for you."
Tianmo Boxun said with a proud smile, using his magic skills silently to stir up her negative emotions.
It is a very challenging thing to seduce a great Bodhisattva who is famous in the three realms and turn her into a demon.
He also liked the task assigned by the adult very much.
Faced with the evil methods of the demon Bo Xun, the Bodhisattva finally couldn't bear it any more and released all his magic power, revealing the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara.
The golden body of the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva is golden and flawless, and is more dazzling than the sun. Her slender arms are like a peacock spreading its tail, holding demon-conquering pestles, golden bowls, bells, gongs, cymbals and other magical instruments. The light of the Buddha shines everywhere.
Overwhelm the world!
"Boom boom boom!!"
The Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara, with full firepower, launched countless attacks in an instant, including the Demon-Subduing Seal, the Fearless Seal, the Wisdom Fist Seal, and the Wish Seal. Countless Sanskrit inscriptions were manifested, and the Buddha's light illuminated the universe, reaching everywhere, almost instantly drowning people in the distance.
Magic cloud!
The black clouds collapsed and were ignited by the golden Buddha's light. The phantoms of hundreds of millions of demons were also covered by attacks all over the sky, and they were all shattered!
The light shines everywhere, the heaven and the earth are bright, and the sound of Zen is loud and clear.
"Well!"
The demon hiding in the black cloud groaned and turned into a ray of light, fleeing thousands of miles away. Along the way, a little bit of evil and ominous dark red blood was sprinkled.
He kept flashing, dividing the heavenly demon into thousands, avoiding the pursuing seals and Buddhist artifacts.
The void shattered, and rays of Buddha's light rose into the sky. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva took advantage of the victory and pursued it, but the speed was not as fast as that of the demon.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The demon's injuries were not too severe, but he still laughed loudly, like a ghostly phantom that flew like lightning, merged into the void, and disappeared into the distance.
Based on his characteristics, as long as someone doesn't kill all the clones in an instant and hit the soul in return, he won't suffer serious damage. The damage done to him by the Bodhisattva's full attack is only equivalent to the loss of a gecko's tail.
"Venerable Guanyin, if you don't want to send me away, I still say that those who know the current affairs are heroes. This time I have found out your details and advise you to abandon the light and turn to darkness as soon as possible, otherwise I will give you a big surprise next time!
"
The devil's laughter echoed in the sky, but there was no shadow of the devil.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva collected her Thousand-Armed Dharma Body and stood in the clouds with an ugly face.
This demon seems to have become a lot stronger. I thought that without Demon Lord Jidu as the person in charge, the Demon Temple would fall into chaos and internal fighting, and would be too busy to take care of itself.
But now, they seem to have reintegrated.
Could it be that the Demon Temple has chosen a new talker?
Who could it be?
Guanyin Bodhisattva inevitably felt more haze in her heart, and her mood became more depressed and uneasy. She also knew that these emotions were wrong, but she could not overcome them.
"what do I do?"
She looked up at the sky, a little lost.
To a certain extent, what Tianmo said is right, especially about the great ambitions.
She couldn't help but think of what the ancient Buddha said last time.
"When the backlash came, Ksitigarbha was the first to suffer. Perhaps it was no coincidence. He relied on his great aspirations to achieve enlightenment, but his strength was slightly inferior and his foundation was unstable. Therefore, he was also the first to suffer disaster."
If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha. Only by saving all sentient beings can I realize Bodhi.
Yes, it is an amazing state of mind, and it comes from the heart, otherwise it would not be able to move God, receive feedback from Heaven, and send down merit.
But can such a grand ambition really be realized?
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's calamity seems to be just a coincidence, but is it not a sign of some kind?
How many of the great wishes made by many Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in Lingshan, especially those who major in Mahayana Buddhism, have come true?
The two sages of the West, Buddha, including her, all have some great aspirations that have not yet been completed.
If the backlash breaks out, none of them can escape.
After thinking about it, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva gritted his silver teeth and rode up the auspicious clouds. Instead of returning to the purple bamboo forest in the South China Sea, he flew towards the sea area at the northeastern junction.
………
Traveling over mountains and rivers, eating and sleeping in the open air.
Tang Monk and his disciples, wearing stars and moons, rushed to the west. On this day, they came to the westernmost part of Nanzhanbuzhou and the junction with Xiniuhezhou.
There is a main dragon vein here connecting the two major divine continents. The mountains and valleys are in various shapes and undulate, like countless huge dragons and snakes entrenched, filled with spiritual energy. Between the peaks, there are cranes flying and white apes jumping.
The largest mountain, with the red sun climbing to the top and auspicious air rolling into the sky, is extremely majestic.
"Disciples, look, that big mountain in front of you is so spectacular. I'm afraid it's not as big as a thousand miles in diameter. This is the first time I've seen such a majestic mountain during this journey."
Tang Monk dismounted, pointed at the highest fairy mountain, and marveled.
Sun Wukong flew into the air and observed for a moment, then flew down and said:
"Master has good eyesight. Ahead is the place where hundreds of rivers and dragon veins converge, the top Lingshan blessed land. Based on my experience, there are very few such mountains in my impression."
Compared with it, Huaguoshan is inferior.
Tang Monk wiped the sweat from his face, looked at the sunset, and said:
"In such a blessed land, there must be some masters. I have been wandering for half a month and am very tired. Why don't we go over and stay for a few nights?"
"Okay." Wukong observed for a while and found no smell of evil spirits. He was also a little curious about who the owner of this place was, so he agreed.
The group of people walked towards the mountain.
Although the mountain was visible from a distance, nearly three days had passed before the master and the disciples finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
With the mist shrouded in mist, the mountains appear more beautiful and sacred.
Among the thin clouds and mist, a simple Taoist temple is vaguely visible on the mountainside, and there is a rugged path in front that leads directly to the Taoist temple among the clouds and mist.
Beside the mountain road, a stone tablet stands there, with several large seal characters of Xiandaoyun clearly visible on it - Longevity Mountain!
