Chapter 12 What is Buddha? There is no Buddha in Lingshan(1/2)
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully accepting Ling Xuzi as his disciple!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining some cultivation level!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for reaching the early stage of true fairyland!
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the magical power "Midas into Gold"!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10,000 years of Taoism!"
A series of system prompts sounded. Tang Sanzang was not dissatisfied with this. Anyway, it was just an unexpected surprise. Buy one, get two free. What else can you do with the free benefits?
It also opened two magical powers. "Midas Turning Stone into Gold" is not very useful, but "Master the Five Thunders" is a real offensive magical power.
"Cultivation is so easy."
Tang Sanzang thought to himself, so he accepted two disciples, and he improved to two minor realms.
Where is it as difficult as described in those novels? What kind of protagonist has gone through countless hardships, his parents sacrificed to heaven, and his power is boundless...
Tang Sanzang said that everything in the novel is indeed a lie.
"Xiao Cang, Xiao Ling, come here to help you discover the truth, goodness and beauty."
Tang Sanzang was in a good mood and waved to the two monsters.
"yes!"
Cangshan Jun and Ling Xuzi looked at each other with surprise on their faces. Do you want to improve your cultivation too? How wonderful!
Good fortune is here!
The old trick was repeated, and Tang Sanzang continued to perform the "Enlightenment". All the 20,000 Taoist practices were exhausted, leaving only the previous 400 years of Taoist practices that could not be used. The 20,000 Taoist practices were divided equally, and the cultivation levels of Cangshan Jun and Ling Xuzi improved smoothly.
We have reached the middle stage of Taiyi Golden Wonderland.
"Xiao Cang, Xiao Ling, behave well. Your truthfulness, kindness and beauty are still not as good as Xiong Zaizi's. As my teacher, I will first raise you to a small realm, and then I will improve you later."
Tang Sanzang said with a serious face.
"Master, don't worry, this disciple will definitely not disappoint the master!"
The two newly recruited disciples both said loudly.
As expected, the master has great magical powers, and he improved his cultivation level in the blink of an eye.
Discovering truth, goodness and beauty? This kind of ability has never been heard of or seen by them. I think even the Tathagata Buddha in Lingshan definitely does not have this ability!
Sure enough, the eldest brother is right, his master is the true Buddha and the great power! So what does the Tathagata Buddha in Lingshan mean? Fetching sutras? So if the Tathagata can sit on the throne of Buddha, can my master not be able to sit on it?
The night passed in a blink of an eye.
"Let's go back to the Guanyin Temple and have a look."
Tang Sanzang looked in the direction of Guanyin Temple, and there was still black smoke floating in the sky over there.
I think after such a night, Guanyin Temple was almost burned down.
"Master, if none of the monks in Guanyin Temple are good, why should we go there?"
General Yin asked doubtfully, and several other disciples also looked at Tang Sanzang.
They had heard clearly about the monks setting fire and plotting to kill them.
"Amitabha, as my teacher, I want to save the souls of the dead."
Tang Sanzang has not forgotten the shocking resentment he felt in Guanyin Temple before.
There are thousands of monks in Guanyin Temple, wearing the shell of the temple and doing banditry. The old master of the temple has lived for almost three hundred years. In these years, at least 100,000 lives have died in their hands!
The third level of Tang Sanzang's "Hunyuan Merit and Creation Sutra" is to relieve the resentment of one hundred thousand dead souls!
"Master has mercy!"
The group went to Guanyin Temple. Cangshan Jun and Ling Xuzi made a sedan to carry Tang Sanzang down the mountain. In their words, how could the master ride on a horse and sit in a sedan as safely as possible?
And with junior brothers like them who are just starting out, Senior Brother Xiao Bailong no longer needs to carry his master on his back.
Naturally, Tang Sanzang would not reject their kindness, so he sat steadily in a sedan chair all the way to Guanyin Temple.
Yesterday, the fire only burned until dawn at five o'clock before it was extinguished. With Tang Sanzang's hand before he left, the entire Guanyin Temple was completely burned by the fire, and the monks whose hands were stained with blood were even burned.
No one survived, they were all burned to ashes, and their ashes were flying everywhere in the wind.
Really shattering bones and scattering ashes.
God's evil deeds can still be forgiven.
It is your own fault and you will not live!
In the original plot trajectory, the Guanyin Temple only burned down some buildings and damaged some property, but the personnel did not suffer much harm.
Now it was precisely because of the strong wind that blew up before Tang Sanzang left that the fire suddenly spread, completely out of control, and more than a thousand monks were all buried in the sea of flames!
But Tang Sanzang didn't have any regrets about this.
None of these monks are kind, they are looking for death, and they will die if they deserve it! Tang Sanzang was not a holy mother!
"The merits of Hunyuan, the source of creation..."
After waving his hand to scatter the ashes floating in the air, Tang Sanzang Shi Shiran sat cross-legged on the ruins of the Guanyin Temple. Countless golden lights of merit behind his head condensed into two haloes of merit, illuminating the entire mountain gate, making it resplendent.
"I'm wronged!"
"I'm miserable!"
"I hate it!"
"I regret it!"
"Hypocritical monk, he is still a child, you deserve to die!"
"Let me go, I don't want this cassock anymore!"
A sudden dark wind blew up, and under the ruins, more than 100,000 undead souls appeared with resentment. There were men and women, old and young, monks and Taoists, people and beasts...
All kinds of undead reenacted the scenes before their death. They were either targeted by the monks for their belongings, or were spotted by the lewd monks for their beauty, or were caught and eaten by the monks...
These are all the crimes committed by Guanyin Temple over the years!
"Good fortune is created and grievances are dispersed."
Tang Sanzang's face was filled with compassion and his voice was like a bell. His merits purified the resentment of these dead souls. So many resentments of the dead made Tang Sanzang's heart shake and his expression moved.
"Damn it, no one is alive, you go ahead."
Seeing that despite the light of merit and virtue, the resentment of the dead souls still refused to dissipate, Tang Sanzang sighed softly in his heart, and then said loudly.
All the monks of Guanyin Temple who harmed them were buried in the sea of fire, and they were completely wiped out. This can be regarded as the greatest expression of resentment against these dead souls.
"Woooooooo..."
"So what if they die, can we survive?"
"Buddhist hypocrisy!"
"I regret that I should not believe in Buddhism!"
The undead souls were crying and howling with resentment, but this time they did not stop and dissipated. The gloomy atmosphere disappeared, and the Guanyin Temple returned to its original temperature.
More than 133,400 resentments of the dead, this is the evil that Guanyin Temple has done over the years!
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the third level of "Hunyuan Merit and Creation Sutra"!"
The system beeped, and the skill successfully broke through to the third level, but there was no joy on Tang Sanzang's face.
"Master, what is Buddha?"
General Yin asked, and the other disciples also looked at Tang Sanzang.
The scene just now had a huge impact on them.
Even if there are monsters among them who have eaten people, they are still eating for the sake of cultivation, but they will not be as hypocritical as the monks of Guanyin Temple.
It is normal for people to kill monsters and monsters to eat people. However, people killing people and eating people is even more shocking than this.
Buddhism is compassionate, but it has committed such murderous crimes in this Buddhist temple!
"The Buddha is in the heart. He is not a person, but a kind heart. All living beings can become Buddhas."
Tang Sanzang was silent for a while, and then said.
What is a Buddha? Is there a Buddha? He doesn’t know, but he is willing to cultivate what he thinks is a Buddha in the three realms where people are killing each other and plotting against each other!
Do whatever you want without breaking the rules, and follow your own heart.
"Master, are those on Lingshan Buddha?"
The black bear spirit touched his head and asked curiously.
"One thought becomes a devil, one thought becomes a Buddha. There is no real Buddha in Lingshan anymore."
Tang Sanzang shook his head.
Hearing this, Sun Wukong's eyes flashed with light, General Yin seemed to understand, Xiao Bailong narrowed his eyes, and the three brothers Cangshan Jun looked at each other, still confused.
To be continued...
