In a dilapidated ancient temple, the Holy Envoy of Black Lotus looked up at the stone Buddha in the center of the temple. His spiritual thoughts filled the entire ancient temple, but he could not detect any energetic items.
This is the place where the ancient Longguang Buddha once set foot, and it is also the oldest relic among all the temples dedicated to the Ancient Longguang Buddha.
Whether it is the dead trees in the courtyard or the dust in the temple, they all reveal traces of changes over time.
It's a pity that if there is no harvest, ancient times are meaningless.
After a long time, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy silently withdrew his spiritual thoughts, raised his hand to summon an iron rod, and started to smash the stone statue of the ancient Buddha in Longguang. Then he smashed the entire temple, smashing all the buildings into powder.
But even so, he couldn't get anything.
And this is already the eighty-eighth temple he has smashed.
The whole process made him look like he was not looking for something, but rather like he was here to clear away the traces left by the ancient Buddha in the world.
A gentle breeze blew up his embroidered brocade robe, making the flowers on the brocade robe seem to come alive and become extremely lively.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy stood on the ruins leaning on a stick, looking up at the blue sky, and finally realized that it was not his aunt who was hindering him, nor that he was incompetent, but that those ancient Buddha relics were indeed difficult to find.
Especially when you don't have any useful information yet, this is like looking for a needle in a haystack... No, this is no different from looking for a needle in the Three Realms.
Thinking of this, he vaguely regretted leaving his aunt without saying goodbye, and even began to worry that if she found the real Wukong and found out that he was the fake Wukong, this hard-earned family relationship would be completely ruined.
However, when he thought of going back to look for the other party, he found that he only had the location information of Baihua Island. But where Baihua Island was and what it looked like, he had no idea.
Fortunately, he knew that there was a treasure in the Heavenly Palace called the Haotian Mirror, which could detect humans, gods, demons, and demons in the three realms, mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, and could even be called out and leave traces on the palace buildings in Tianxin.
If there are items related to the person who is investigating, the accuracy will be higher. Coincidentally, the flower robe he is wearing was sewn stitch by stitch by his aunt. Then he only needs to stick it on the Haotian Mirror to be sure.
Can find out the other party's whereabouts.
Of course, there is a premise for all this, that is, the other party does not conceal his own aura and hide himself. Otherwise, even if he has a hundred-flower robe, he will not be able to find traces of his aunt through the Haotian Mirror...
Soon after.
The Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus came to the Lingxiao Palace, where he saw the giant scorpion woman who was sitting on the throne and devoted herself to handling the government affairs of the heaven.
"Sun Wukong?" The giant scorpion girl looked up at him and stood up from the throne suddenly.
"Don't be nervous, it's me." The Black Lotus Holy Envoy transformed and returned to his original appearance, dressed in black with his head and face covered.
The giant scorpion woman breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the chair: "I was shocked... Heilian, didn't the Buddha send you to find the relics? Why do you have time to come here?"
The Holy Envoy of Black Lotus sighed: "I am looking for the relics, but after five years of searching, I overturned one hundred and eighty temples, but still found nothing."
The giant scorpion woman said with relief: "This is a very arduous task in the first place. The difficulty level is no less than the difficulties faced by several of us protectors. Don't be impatient. You have to be patient and look for it. Even if you only find one, if there is no zero, the Buddha will not
I'll blame you."
The Holy Envoy of Black Lotus said: "What I'm afraid of is Hanging Ling. The Buddha said that only Sun Wukong can find the Buddha's bone relics. Although I am also a monkey, I am not Sun Wukong after all."
Giant Scorpion Woman: "Don't be discouraged. Now our people are searching for Tang Monk and his disciples throughout the three realms. As long as we find Sun Wukong, we may be able to find the relics by following him. And if he has already found the relics, we can also find the relics from him."
Grab it from your hands."
"Having said that, for me now, these are all things that have no trace." The Black Lotus Holy Envoy said: "Right Protector, let me tell you straight, I want to borrow the Haotian Mirror."
The giant scorpion woman said: "I have tried it, but the Haotian Mirror cannot locate the relics of ancient Buddhas."
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy took out a blue-white jade porcelain bottle from his arms and said, "When you tried it, you didn't have anything related to the ancient Buddha, right? I have it here!"
"What is this?" the giant scorpion woman asked curiously.
"It is the powder of the oldest stone Buddha statue on Longguang Ancient Buddha. There may still be some cause and effect with him on it." The Black Lotus Holy Envoy said.
The giant scorpion girl nodded, no doubt that he was there: "Wait a moment, I will go to the treasure house to get the Haotian Mirror."
"Thank you." The Black Lotus Holy Envoy cupped his fists and saluted.
"There is no need for this between you and me."
The giant scorpion girl smiled, turned into a purple-black stream of light, and disappeared in the Lingxiao Palace in an instant.
Not long after, she held a golden round mirror in her hand, suddenly appeared in front of Lingxiao Palace, walked slowly inside, and raised her hand to deliver the round mirror to the Black Lotus Envoy: "Here~"
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy took the round mirror, held it flat with one hand, and lightly sprinkled the stone Buddha powder on the edge of the lens. As he input his magic power, the mirror surface suddenly shimmered, and in the light and shadow, a ruin was clearly visible.
"Are these the ruins of the Buddhist temple that you destroyed?" asked the giant scorpion woman.
"yes."
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy responded, suddenly sat down cross-legged, and said in a deep voice: "I'll give it another try, you go about your business first."
The giant scorpion woman alone holds the power of heaven and is indeed very busy, so she doesn't have to be polite and turns around to walk towards the royal table on the high platform...
What she didn't know was that the moment she turned around, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy put his sleeves on the back of the Haotian Mirror and began to search for her aunt.
After a while.
The giant scorpion woman was sitting upright correcting the memorial. The Haotian Mirror in front of the Black Lotus Holy Envoy once again shimmered. In the dim light, a body was seen floating in the sea of blood, drifting with the current.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy suddenly widened his eyes and almost shouted out.
But his body was still shaking uncontrollably, and there was a turmoil in his heart!
After a long time.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy tried hard to control his mind and body, stood up suddenly, and shouted to the giant scorpion woman: "The right protector, you have some features."
"Really?" The giant scorpion girl was overjoyed.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy said: "Of course, but..."
"But what?"
"But I have to take this Haotian Mirror with me for investigation."
The giant scorpion woman said decisively: "You can take me away, as long as you can complete the tasks assigned by the Buddha, there is nothing wrong with me."
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy said gratefully: "Right Protector, thank you."
Giant Scorpion Girl: "We both work for the Buddha, this is what we should do."
In the blink of an eye, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy arrived above the Blood Sea and cast a spell to lift up the body soaked in the sea. After seeing the other party's face clearly, his body suddenly trembled, and an uncontrollable sadness surged in his heart.
In this world, the only person who gave him some sense of family affection died like this. Will he ever meet such a person again in the future?
His heart was filled with despair. All the flowers blooming in the wilderness withered in an instant, and he was filled with resentment!
After an unknown amount of time, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy finally woke up from the suffocating despair and silently placed the Haotian Mirror on the corpse to explore the cause and effect.
Soon, he saw his alive aunt in the mirror. He saw that his aunt was searching the underworld, looking for traces of Ksitigarbha, and asking countless ghosts. Finally one day, Ksitigarbha appeared in front of her and asked her why.
Find yourself.
However, his aunt's reaction made him burst into tears. He saw her kneeling down in front of Ksitigarbha and asked him about the whereabouts of the ancient Buddha's relics.
Even though he left without saying goodbye, his aunt was still helping him.
How virtuous and capable is Sun Wukong to possess such selfless love?
Later, Ksitigarbha gave guidance. There might be some information in the sea of blood. After all, the former great sage of the sea of blood was also an ancient demon. If we could see his remnant spirit, we might gain something.
So, my aunt came to the sea of blood, where she saw Ananda and Kasyapa who were torturing the Buddhas.
As soon as the two parties met, Ananda and Kassapa tied up their aunt and tortured her about her purpose. The aunt refused to tell her, so she was beaten to death above the sea of blood...
"Ananda, Kasyapa."
Seeing this, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy gritted his teeth, his voice filled with endless chill.
Half an hour later.
Abi hell.
Ananda and Kassapa stared at the tortured Buddhas in front of them, talking quietly to each other.
After this period of hard work, they finally determined that these die-hards were all perverts.
If you regard suffering as cultivation, torture as tempering, fearless of death, and even regard death as liberation, you are really crazy.
"Kasyapa, Ananda."
Just as they continued to discuss how to torture these gods and Buddhas in different ways, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them.
The two Buddhas followed the sound at the same time and saw the Black Lotus Protector, one of the four black protectors, coming slowly, and they hurriedly greeted him together.
"Meet Black Lotus Protector."
Heilian waved his hand: "No need to be polite, I came here this time to ask the two venerables something."
Kasyapa smiled and said, "You can ask questions, and we promise to answer them all."
"I want to ask, have you ever seen a silver-haired old woman in the blood sea? She ruined my good deeds and messed with my mind. I am chasing her now, but when I chased her to the blood sea, her breath disappeared."
The two venerables looked at each other and then laughed in unison.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you laughing?"
Ananda said as if he was taking credit: "It's a coincidence that not long ago, we met a silver-haired old woman in the sea of blood. Seeing her sneaking around, we caught her and tortured her. Unexpectedly, we still haven't asked her.
What, just beat her to death."
Kassapa smiled and said, "I never thought that this could indirectly help the Dharma protector. It's good, great good!"
The Holy Envoy of Black Lotus smiled slightly, and while the two monks were smiling, he suddenly summoned an iron rod, and smashed Kasyapa's head with one blow, and blood and brain matter splashed into the face of Ananda next to him.
Ananda was stunned, or dumbfounded, but before he could react, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy's iron rod hit him on the head, shattering his head.
Later, in order to prevent the two monks from resurrecting from the dead, he even summoned divine fire to burn their divine bodies and remnant souls to ashes, completely eliminating the possibility of resurrection.
Only then did he let out some of the evil spirit in his heart. After pondering for a moment, he turned into the appearance of Sun Wukong, and the iron rod in his hand also turned into the shape of a golden cudgel. He struck and killed the little devil who was being executed, and saved the little devil.
Twenty-eight Buddhas.
"Thank you very much, Buddha." The twenty-eight Buddhas saluted and thanked each other.
The Black Lotus Holy Envoy waved his hand and said: "No need to say more, just run for your life."
The twenty-eight Buddhas bowed again to express their gratitude, and then turned into light and left.
When there was no one else here, the Black Lotus Holy Envoy let out a long sigh, but he couldn't fill the empty space in his heart...
A few days later.
In the human world, inside Qiaojiazhuang.
Ksitigarbha appeared in Qin Yao's courtyard and called out: "The Buddha of Sandalwood Merit..."
In the main hall, Qin Yao, who was sitting in front of a beautiful silver-haired woman, looked up and immediately said, "Princess, please wait a moment."
Princess Asura, who looks thirty years old, has delicate and fair skin, and an exquisite face, nodded slightly: "You go ahead, I'll wait."
Qin Yao smiled, then flashed into the courtyard, cupped his hands towards Ksitigarbha and said, "I have seen the great monk."
Ksitigarbha nodded with a smile on his face: "Buddha of Merit, the old monk received the exact news that Sun Wukong, the victorious Buddha, sneaked into hell, killed Ananda and Kassapa in a sneak attack, and saved twenty-eight Buddhas."
"Well done." Qin Yao chuckled, raised his hand and said, "Bodhisattva, please come inside."
Ksitigarbha also raised his arms: "The meritorious Buddha goes first."
Qin Yao said: "When the great monk is present, how can there be any reason for the lesser monk to go first?"
Ksitigarbha paused for a moment, then took the first step and entered the main hall. When he raised his eyes, he saw a beautiful silver-haired woman of heavenly beauty.
"Zizhu pays homage to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva." Princess Asura took the lead in saluting.
Ksitigarbha put his hands together and said with a smile: "Congratulations, princess."
Princess Zizhu smiled: "Shedding her old body and returning to her true self, she was reborn in another life, all thanks to the merits of the Buddha and the supernatural power."
In fact, before she got this body, she didn't dare to think about how perfect it could be.
But she never expected that the twelfth-grade red lotus of karma left behind by her father would actually fall into the hands of the Tantan Merit Buddha.
These princesses were originally created by their father by emulating Nuwa's creation of human beings by condensing the essence of the blood river with the red lotus of the twelfth grade of karma.
What the father can do, the Buddha of Merit can naturally do, and because he only makes his own body, unlike his father who mass-produced many Asura princesses, this resulted in his body being even thicker than when he was young.
Excellent quality, far beyond her expectations.
Seeing the heartfelt smile on Princess Asura's face, Qin Yao said with emotion: "It's just a coincidence that if I didn't have the twelfth-grade fire red lotus, I really wouldn't be able to create the body you have now. Your talent and physique will be inferior.
a lot of."
Ksitigarbha said with a smile: "It is destined by fate, so good, so good."
Qin Yao waved his hand: "You two, let's get down to business, it's time to carry out the third stage of the operation.
The content of the story at this stage is that Princess Shura died in a sea of blood, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva appeared to rescue her.
The next main goal is to let the Black Lotus Holy Envoy discover the fact that the princess is still alive. What he sees is more real than what he hears."
Ksitigarbha suppressed his smile and said: "This is easy to handle. We have already prepared the matter for the princess to meet the old monk. Next, all we need is for the old monk to meet Heilian..."
