Section 34 Donglai Island
Dongtian, located on Donglai Island in the East China Sea, is the center of many fairy mountains and fairy islands in the East China Sea. Most of the time around the island is cloudy and mist, and it is impossible for ordinary people to find a way to enter, as if it means that this island does not welcome outsiders.
However, there are exceptions in everything. Every year, there will always be a day when the clouds will dissipate by themselves. The entire island looks like a girl with a veil, showing her beautiful makeup to welcome visitors from all over the world. And this day is the eighth day of the April 19th of every year, which is the day of the Dongtianlong Hua Festival.
To this day, as the Dongtian is becoming more and more powerful, the Longhua Festival is no longer as shabby as before. Countless immortals come to celebrate, millions of religious people worship, and even many demon clans offer treasures. It can be said that in addition to the slightly lower style, the Longhua Festival is no less than the Peach Banquet Banquet in the Heavenly Court. It is even more powerful than the Ullambana Festival, which is not as good as the Ullambana Festival in Lingshan City.
Looking back at that time, in order to expand Dongtian's influence, Donglai Buddha personally issued a decree to move the organizer of the Longhua Association to Donglai County. Although it is still remote, it is countless times more convenient than Donglai Island, which is thousands of miles away from the shore.
Of course, the Longhua Society moved to Donglai was actually to receive mortal believers from all directions. In addition to singing and dancing, the Buddha from Donglai would only show up for a moment and then leave after simply preaching to the believers.
The real core venue is actually always on Donglai Island. The immortals and Buddhas who come to watch the ceremony in the three realms will enjoy the nectar fruits produced on the islands of the East China Sea and watch the clear songs and dances of overseas fairies? Listen to the Buddha Donglai talks with the gods and Buddhas of the heavens.
There is no doubt that that is the real top event. Immortals still need to hold invitations to enter. There are very few mortals who can participate. And all of these mortals have made great contributions to Dongtian and have important positions in Dongtian affiliated sects such as Donglai Sect, White Lotus Sect, and Pure Land Sect. Only then have the opportunity to win this honor.
On the fifth day of April, Donglai Port? About 200 people boarded three large ships? Set sail and sailed up the vast sea. It was the core figures of the Donglai Sect, the White Lotus Sect, the Pure Land Sect and other sects who rushed to Donglai Island to attend the Longhua event.
Most of these people are dressed as monks? They are the leaders of various sects? But there are also many secular costumes. These people have a special identity, called the elders of secular families, and they are all believers who have made great contributions in various sects, so that they can get such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Above a big ship? A lay elder who looked thirty or forty years old and bearded was standing at the bow of the ship, looking around curiously at the speed of the ship.
"Amitabha? " An old monk wearing a moon-white monk's robe walked up and bowed to the man. �
Not bad? This middle-aged elder? It was Yun Xiang who was dressed up. The old monk in front of him was not simple. He was Ci Yuan, the contemporary pope of the Middle Earth White Lotus Sect, and he was also the guide for his trip.
After hearing Ci Yuan's words, Yun Xiang just smiled faintly and said, "The Pope is joking. There are so many monks here, how can it be said that the wind and cold are just cold? What's more, as long as you can see the Buddha's deity, I will admit that even if you are seriously ill." Despite this, he still couldn't help but shrink his neck, which showed that the sea breeze was actually quite cold.
Ci Yuan was moved to see that this family elder was so pious and said, "Elder Yun doesn't have to be anxious. He just needs to go back to the cabin to recuperate for two days before he can arrive at Donglai Island. At that time, not only can he hear the Buddha's personal teachings, but he can also see many legendary gods. If there is a chance, he may be able to be reborn, and it is still unknown which god and Buddha will enter to practice."
When Yun Xiang heard this, his face was already filled with excitement. He took out a thick stack of things from his arms and handed them forward. They were all money tickets from Chang'an Money House, and said repeatedly: "It's so good, so good, so I'll borrow the auspicious words of the Pope."
Ci Yuan's face turned solemn, and he bowed again, and then he took the money and said, "Amitabha, Elder Yun is so kind and generous, and has made a great relationship. I am grateful to the elder for giving on my millions of disciples of the White Lotus Sect."
Yun Xiang smiled, with no reluctance on his face. In order to board the ship, he spent nearly eight million yuan in the past six months. Now that success is about to happen, he doesn't have to care about this little bit.
For that large sum of money, the monkeys and grandchildren of Huaguo Mountain were almost emptying the treasury of Aolai Country. Of course, compared with the purpose of his trip, even the old white ape, who had always been a calculating, felt that the money was not in vain.
Watching the big ship sailing through the wind and waves, Yun Xiang couldn't help asking again: "I dare to ask the Pope, it is said that this Donglai Island is thousands of miles away from the land. In just two or three days, our ship will not be late, right?"
Ci Yuan smiled and pointed to a flag with a golden Buddha seal on the bow of the boat and said, "Don't worry, with this flag given by the Buddha Lord, the ship will naturally be smooth sailing, far ten times the speed of the ordinary boat. You will definitely arrive within three days."
Yun Xiang nodded suddenly, looking at the flag with respect, but he was just secretly amused. The flag had no spiritual energy at all. The reason why the ship was smooth sailing was clearly because the East China Sea Dragon Palace was secretly helping.
This just shows that Dongtian is indeed powerful in the East China Sea. Even the Dragon Palace has to bow down and obey orders. I should be more careful when I act this time.
Sure enough, on the evening of the seventh day of April, three large ships finally approached a fairy island, and from afar, they could see the island's flowers and auspicious clouds, which made people yearn for it.
As everyone got ashore, the sound of immortals suddenly sounded between heaven and earth, and the song was sung by the song adapted from the "Tianlai Jing". For a moment, everyone on the boat knelt down on the ground and sang with the sound of immortals. The scene was once extremely spectacular.
Even Yunxiang couldn't help but look at it a little bit. Not to mention anything else, it would be extremely difficult to just say that the gods and Buddhas on Donglai Island welcomed these ordinary people so grandly. Compared with the style of purely slaughtering believers as fat sheep in Lingshan City, it is simply incomparable. From the perspective of a believer, it can be said that the experience is excellent.
It seems that the East Heaven has developed so rapidly over the years that it can surpass the West Heaven. In addition to the support of the Heavenly Court, its respectful attitude has also played a key role.
After the fairy voice stopped slowly, most of the believers were filled with tears in their eyes. They bowed several times in succession, praised the merits of the Buddhas coming to the East, and then they all stood up one after another.
At this time, three beautiful female fairies stepped on auspicious clouds and fell from the sky. They greeted everyone, saying, "Welcome to the island, you all have to work hard all the way. Let's go with us to the wing room to rest and share the ceremony tomorrow morning."
Everyone was overjoyed and claimed yes, so they followed the three female fairies to the island.
