Section 72 Countermeasures
But it was said that the Buddha brought a group of defeated soldiers and returned to Lingshan City. The city gate was wide open, and the lamp was burning, and the two Medicine Buddhas had already brought the left-behind gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to greet each other. Everyone was surprised to see that the originally solemn Buddha soldiers had become like this defeated army.
However, when they saw that the Buddha's face was as deep as water, they did not dare to ask any more questions, so they had to welcome the group back to the Great Leiyin Temple first.
All the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas settled according to the seats. Amitabha Buddha had already explained the general experience of this conquest, and everyone suddenly became silent. In any case, the failure of the Buddha's personal expedition can also be regarded as a great defeat by the Western Buddhists, and there was no excuse to return to the world. At this time, everyone recalled the advice of the Peacock King Bodhisattva before the expedition, and felt a little sigh in their hearts.
The loss of Lingshan this time was really considerable. When he left the city, only less than 70,000 Buddha soldiers returned. More than 200,800 Tianlongs died, and more than 30 Arhats remained in the Flame Mountain forever. What's even more terrifying is that there are four Bodhisattvas and one Flame Five Light Buddha on the list of casualties, which will make everyone feel even heavier.
At this moment, the green lion, who was standing at the bottom of the hall, suddenly spoke carefully: "Report to Buddha, the little one seems to remember the identity of that person in the end."
Although his voice was not high, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. The Buddha Benge was also stunned and asked, "Who is it?"
The green lion looked at the white elephant and golden retriever beside him and said, "Report to Buddha, Xiao Gang has confirmed it with his brothers just now. He all felt that the figure and voice of the man were a little familiar, and it seemed... the mount of the Bagua Taoist Qingniu."
"Qingniu?" The Buddha of Benge frowned and pondered for a while before saying, "No wonder he had a vajra carving in his hand. If so, would he come to be an enemy of me because he was instructed by the Bagua Taoist?"
"It's not impossible," said the Bodhisattva Wanghai, who was beside him, and said, "Buddha, the Three Pure Saints of Heaven, have always regarded me as barbarians in the West. They have long been extremely dissatisfied with the Jade Emperor's attention to the West. If the army wins this time, the Jade Emperor will lead my Buddhist disciples into the Heaven. I think it was because they got the news, so they sent people to obstruct them."
As soon as they said this, the scene was in an uproar. They have been immersed in the joy of the increasing prosperity of Buddhism over the years. Only then did they realize that their development had touched the interests of other people, such as the Sanqing Taoist Sect in Middle Earth.
At this time, the Wisdom Buddha, who was sitting next to the Buddha, suddenly spoke: "Qing Lion, have you recognized your identity as the more than 200 masked monsters who came to help afterwards?"
Qingshi thought for a moment and replied, "Report to the Buddha, the battlefield was too chaotic before, and the young man really didn't notice them. However, the person who injured the Vajra Indestructible Buddha reminded the young man of a person, as if..."
The Wisdom Savage Buddha hurriedly asked, "Who seems to be?"
The green lion looked at the white elephant and the golden retriever roar, and saw that they also showed a clear expression, and then said: "It seems to be a bit like the mount of the Nine Spirits Saying the Heavenly Lord of Taiyi."
"It turns out to be so!" The Wisdom Sweet Buddha sighed and said, "Buddha, it seems that those men in black who came to help were sent by the saints of the Three Pure Land to oppose us."
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha said angrily: "It's outrageous. Buddha, we have been ordered by the Jade Emperor to attack the monsters. These three saints actually sent someone to secretly help the monsters. It's simply inconsistent with the heavenly rule. Why don't you sue this matter to the Heavenly Court and ask the Jade Emperor to make the decision for us?"
Wanghai Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that it's useless to tell me. You don't know. According to my observation over the years, although the Jade Emperor is the lord of the Three Realms, he is now in the Heavenly Court with the constraints of the Three Pure Ones everywhere. I'm afraid that he has deliberately won over the West over the years, just to check and balance the Three Pure Ones.
Now we have no evidence, only the confession of Qingshi. Even if we sue him in the Heavenly Court, at most, the Bagua Taoist confesses the sin of losing his magic weapon, or Taiyi saves the Ku Tianzun's punishment for being lost by a mount, which will not hurt the root of the Three Pure Ones."
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha shook his head and said, "Wanghai Bodhisattva, you are so wrong. Now I have passed away from the West Heaven. Shouldn't the Heavenly Court find out clearly and give us an explanation?"
Wanghai Bodhisattva sighed: "The person who killed the Buddha of Fire Five Lights is not a masked man in black. He is the sworn brother of the Great Saint of Pingtian, the Great Saint of Ventilation. His whereabouts have always been mysterious and are not from the heavenly court. If he bites this matter, it will be of no help."
The Vajra Indestructible Buddha has always had the best friendship with the Fire Five Light Buddha, so he said angrily: "A great master in Lingshan passed away. Could it be that the matter is forgot? Then we will mobilize more experts to fight with Fire Mountain."
Wanghai Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "No, now everyone is in a state of unstable state. It is just when we need to take a break. The strength of the Middle Earth Demon Clan is not weak. If we fight again, maybe the Three Qingshu will send more experts to help. Even if we can win, we will win miserably. If we lose again, we will not have a chance to turn over."
The Wisdom and Victory Buddha said: "What Wanghai Bodhisattva said is right. Buddha, now that Lingshan is defeated, it is really not appropriate to send troops again in the short term. Moreover, after this defeat, one thing will cause great damage to the reputation of the Western Heaven in the Heaven Court, and it will also be blocked when entering the Heaven Court. Two thing, this..." At this point, he suddenly stopped talking, looking at the original Buddha, and then stopped talking.
The Buddha frowned and said, "Now is the time when my disaster is coming in the West. If you have something to say, it's okay."
Wisdom over Buddha's Taoism: "Buddha, today you are fighting against that Jiao Jiuling, I'm afraid they will spread it everywhere, which will be extremely unfavorable to the future development of my Buddhism..."
When the Buddha heard this, his face changed and he realized the key to the problem.
The reason why Buddhism has grown stronger and stronger over the years is that the compassionate teachings of Buddhism spread all over the world and the people in the world are rushing to spread them. The other is that the Western Heaven helped the Heavenly Court quell the chaos four hundred years ago and gained the recognition of the Jade Emperor. However, this gambling incident can be considered to have hurt the root cause.
If everyone in the world thinks that the Buddha is a person without faith and righteousness, naturally no one will believe his Buddhist teachings anymore.
Moreover, when he helped the Heavenly Court quell the chaos, the Buddha and the Monkey King also had the same bet. Although many people later said that the Buddha broke his promise and was fat, they were just a matter of their own opinion. However, this incident undoubtedly cast a shadow on the previous golden credit book.
Although this kind of damage to the fundamental problem is difficult to say, it is actually the biggest loss of the Western Paradise this time.
After thinking through the whole story, the Buddha Benqu said in a deep voice: "Wisdom Buddha, since he has discovered the problem, what solutions do you have to deal with?"
The Wisdom Buddha shook his head and sighed: "I am stupid, but I can't think of any way to achieve the best of both worlds for a while. I still need to think carefully. However, I think there is a ready-made method now that can reduce the loss this time, which can be regarded as a slight reward for the behavior of the Sanqing this time."
The Buddha was shocked and asked, "What's the solution?"
Two rays of light flashed out of the eyes of the Wisdom Buddha, and he said coldly: "Use his own way to treat his own body."
Ben went to the Buddha and said, "Let me tell me in detail."
Wisdom and Buddha's Taoism: "The Three Pure Ones Help the Monsters This time, I am damaged by the face of my face in the West, and Two, I am afraid that they will also strive for merit. If what I expected was not bad, they would not allow the Flame Mountain to continue to make trouble, but they would be afraid that someone would send someone else to conquer me and give me a bigger and ugly look in the West.
Since our West Heaven suffered a great loss in the Fire Mountain, we cannot let them get it well. At that time, we really have to count it. We can say who is better and worse. At that time, we can also volunteer again and send more people to wipe out the Fire Mountain to be considered as regaining the face. Buddha, as far as our disciples know, there are many demon cultivators in the West Heaven, so it is better..."
If you can't compare yourself with others, you can force others to compare yourself with others. This is really a wonderful way.
