Chapter 464 Patriarch Bodhi asks for a lottery, the holy road ends up empty
Su Chen and Patriarch Bodhi looked at each other at this time, and both sides were silent.
His heart is extremely complicated, because Patriarch Bodhi is Sun Wukong's first master, and he is Sun Wukong's second master. Both of them have great kindness to Sun Wukong.
but.
If anyone is more respected and feared by Sun Wukong, Su Chen would not dare to say it is him.
After all, Bodhi is Sun Wukong’s enlightenment teacher, and he also named Sun Wukong.
Although including Sun Wukong sweeping floors for five years and studying art for three years, they only spent eight or nine years together, but they still have the initial foundation of their relationship.
Su Chen has known Sun Wukong for only ten or eight years. Although he taught Sun Wukong more magical powers and spells and paid more, in the final analysis, he didn't spend much time with Sun Wukong.
Whether their feelings for each other are deep or not, Su Chen himself doesn't know.
Therefore, after discovering Bodhi this time, he came here specifically not to declare the sovereignty of Sun Wukong, but to understand some things.
After all, Sun Wukong and Bodhi still have a deep emotional foundation. If this matter is not clarified, Patriarch Bodhi will be the biggest variable.
That's when.
Let’s not talk about the relationship between Su Chen and Sun Wukong for now. A word from Bodhi, his predecessor, might be able to change Sun Wukong’s thoughts and decisions.
That's not allowed!
Patriarch Bodhi was feeling even more complicated at this time.
because.
He already knew the relationship between Su Chen and Sun Wukong, and originally thought that Sun Wukong would follow Monk Tang to learn Buddhist scriptures from the West and achieve Buddhism, and then his merits would be considered complete.
But now Sun Wukong has not joined the Buddhist sect, but has joined Su Chen's sect. If his ambition is not fulfilled, he will not be able to take the final step!
Bodhi was even worried that Su Chen's appearance this time was an attempt to bring him to justice.
After all, Su Chen was full of hostility towards Buddhism through all his actions. If he could take Sun Wukong into his sect, he would definitely liquidate those who had plotted against Sun Wukong in the past.
Including his former master!
But Bodhi was not an ordinary person. He looked at Su Chen, still meditating under the Bodhi tree, with a calm expression.
Or maybe he felt that he couldn't defeat Su Chen and there was no point in resisting, so he looked away and became calm.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Su Chen said, "Why did you stay on Wushi Island?"
Bodhi said: "If Emperor Su Tian doesn't like it, I can just leave."
Su Chen said: "I said, anyone can come if they want, and I will never stop them. However, there must be a reason for coming, otherwise I won't worry."
Bodhi was silent for a moment and said, "If I say that I came here to find a chance to become a saint, would you believe it?"
Su Chen said: "If you want to become a saint, is there the Tao Fruit here?!"
Bodhi said: "There is no path and fruit, but one thing can be accomplished, and the path and fruit are born!"
Su Chen said: "What's the matter?"
Bodhi said: "The great wish that the poor Taoist once made."
Su Chen said: "Is it done?"
Bodhi said: "Obviously, it has not happened. What will happen in the future, I don't even know!"
Then he raised his head and glanced at Su Chen, and said: "I have long heard that Emperor Su Tian had no final plans. Since you want to know about Pindao's situation, and Pindao also wants to ask about Xin'an. If we continue, is there still Pindao's holy path?
hope!?"
Su Chen was stunned and said in astonishment: "Are you asking me for a signature?"
Bodhi said: "If Emperor Su Tian is not happy, then forget it."
His eyes were obviously a little gloomy.
To be honest, perseverance in becoming a saint is the inner demon and obsession of every person who has reached this level. He has wasted many years and his future is slim. Now that Su Chen has calculated everything, he actually doesn't really believe that Su Chen can really calculate it.
However, Su Chen had no plans after all, and if he could tell him something, he would be well aware of it!
but.
Su Chen was not happy.
Bodhi said: "This is just a delusion of a poor Taoist. It is deduced that the Holy Road is originally contrary to nature. If you do it forcefully, you will be punished by God. How dare you let Emperor Su Tian take the risk!"
Su Chen felt happy. He originally wanted to know about Bodhi's situation and experience, but if he just asked, it would be impossible to tell whether it was true or false, false or true.
but.
If he can interpret Bodhi's lot, he can see Bodhi's experience, even if it is only part of it, it can give him some understanding and judge whether Bodhi is in danger.
Should we keep him or kill him directly?
Anyway, this is important.
Since Bodhi asked for a signature, he helped, and he was able to get a favor, and based on his experience, he could even get a gift from the gold medal list.
If you kill three birds with one stone, why not do it?
He then said, "What you are asking for is the Holy Road. This road is difficult and dangerous. If you ask, you will not be punished by God, but it may disturb your will."
Bodhi asked: "What do you mean by this?"
Su Chen said: "If you don't ask, you won't know the outcome, so you can still avoid hitting the wall and not look back. If you ask, the way forward will be slim, or even a dead end, wouldn't it mess up the righteousness in your heart?!"
Bodhi was silent for a long time.
Su Chen was really worried that Bodhi would change his mind and not ask for the autograph because of his words.
but.
He was betting that Patriarch Bodhi had already taken the initiative to ask questions, and his Taoist mind must have been loosened, so it was unlikely that he would give up.
After all, even the Fuxi clan couldn't let go, let alone Patriarch Bodhi.
Sure enough, Patriarch Bodhi said: "If Emperor Su Tian can tell me something, even if the Taoist heart is shaken because of this, it has nothing to do with Emperor Su Tian. The poor Taoist will only shed tears of gratitude!"
Su Chen sighed in his heart, no matter how powerful a person is, when faced with the matter of becoming a saint, they are still just like ordinary people, inevitably unavoidable!
With pursuit and desire, you will worry about gains and losses. Even if your Taoist heart is firmer, you will not be able to overcome your inner obsession after all!
Fuxi is like this, Antarctic Immortal is like this, Zhen Yuanzi is like this, and Bodhi Patriarch is like this!
Su Chen was very happy. Only when they had desires and requests could he gain something.
He said: "Well, since you said so, I will help you just for Wukong's sake!"
As he spoke, he handed out a bamboo tube.
Patriarch Bodhi held the bamboo tube, pondered for a long time, and said: "I never thought that one day, this poor Taoist would be blessed by Wukong."
Afterwards, he became familiar with the art. After all, in terms of arithmetic, he is considered to be among the best among the Three Realms and Six Paths. Although he is not as good as the Fuxi clan, he is still powerful compared to the likes of Huolong Zhenren.
It was also because of familiarity that he knew that the deduction had merit. Su Chen might be able to know a thing or two, and even if it wasn't completely correct, it could still be used as a reference.
And he has waited too long, this is his chance.
Swish, swish, swish!
Patriarch Bodhi began to shake the bamboo tube.
At the same time, he muttered words.
"Poverty-stricken Bodhisattva, I want to ask about the way of heaven and the battle for the holy road. What is the good or bad situation?"
Snap.
A bamboo stick fell, and Patriarch Bodhi's heart skipped a beat. He quickly picked it up, pinched the words on it, and slowly moved his fingers down to read the words clearly.
Sign below!
puff!
Patriarch Bodhi spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his eyes almost popped out!
Sign below!
It turned out to be a sign!
How could it possibly be a signature?!
Even if it's not a top sign, it's not another sign, it's a down sign!
How is it possible, how is it possible?!
Patriarch Bodhi held the bamboo stick tightly, as if he wanted to crush it.
Su Chen knew from that look that it was a sign of fortune.
There is not much mood swing. After all, the battle for the Holy Road is so dangerous. Who can guarantee that the road ahead will be smooth?!
Even Fu Xi is destined to die. Ancestor Bodhi is probably at the upper level of the quasi-sage now. If he dares to fight for the holy path, isn't that asking for death?!
Unless he has other means.
For example, Sun Wukong.
However, Sun Wukong has changed his destiny against heaven, and all Bodhi's plans are useless.
However, these are all speculations by Su Chen. He needs to get the lottery and see the experience before he can make a judgment.
He then said: "The lot is for ten deaths and no life. Sure enough, the holy road competes with thousands of peaks, and after a hundred turns, it turns out to be empty."
Bodhi said unwillingly: "Is there really no chance at all?!"
His eyes were full of unwillingness and despair, "Now not only do I have no chance, I even have to risk my own life."
Su Chen said: "It's certain that there's no chance, but it's not necessarily possible that you'll risk your life."
Bodhi said: "If you place a lot, there will be no life for ten deaths. Even a poor Taoist knows how to do arithmetic."
Su Chen said: "But you should know that it can be resolved by placing a lot of money!"
Patriarch Bodhi was stunned for a moment, then became ecstatic and hurriedly said: "Emperor Su Tian, teach me!"
Su Chen stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the lottery to see first. What a dead end it is!"
