The Buddha nodded slowly and glanced at the numerous Buddhas and Bodhisattvas under the stage, "Do the Buddhas have any other opinions?"
Everyone looked at each other. Tang Sanzang had finished speaking. What else could they say?
At this time, an old monk appeared out of thin air in mid-air.
When everyone saw it, they quickly stood up and bowed.
The old monk is the ancient Buddhist Buddha who burned lamps in the past and holds a very high status in Lingshan.
This old man has been cultivating in Lingshan for a long time, so why did he come out at this time?
Buddha said, "Does the ancient Buddha have something to say?"
Ran Deng Ancient Buddha said, "I heard rumors from the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons that the birth of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is related to the Heavenly Court. The Buddha must handle this matter carefully. Heavenly Court has obtained one of the four Classics of Mountains and Seas. If we obtain the second, our luck will skyrocket. Our Buddhist sect
I’m afraid it will be difficult to compete with him again!”
Classic of Mountains and Seas?
When the Buddhas heard this, they all looked at each other.
The Buddha remained calm and nodded slightly, "I will discuss this matter with the two masters before making a decision!"
Ran Deng nodded slightly, "This disaster is probably caused by the Book of Mountains and Seas. The two Buddhas and Saints deduced the secrets of heaven. There is a trial star in the lower world, and the Qi of the Book of Mountains and Seas flashes. I am afraid that it has been obtained by an expert. The Buddha should do it early."
Intend!"
The Buddha pinched his fingers and didn't know what he was thinking about. After a while, he turned to look at Tang Sanzang and said, "Sanzang, you have tried on this star. This time, it is up to you to go down to the next world and find out the whereabouts of the Book of Mountains and Seas. This thing
It’s about luck, there’s no room for error!”
"Disciple, obey!"
Tang Sanzang clasped his hands together and responded, turning into a rainbow and going straight down to the lower realm.
…
The Buddhas dispersed, and the ancient Buddha of Lantern also disappeared. The Buddha sat in the main hall, with a bit of solemnity on his warm face.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas is born, calamity begins again, and the world of immortality is really going to be troubled.
Where should Buddhism go?
It should be a good thing for Buddhism that the Heavenly Court and the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons are at odds with each other. However, when the calamity comes, Buddhism cannot be alone and will be dragged in sooner or later.
As Tang Sanzang said, instead of being passively dragged in in the future, it is better to end the game earlier, choose one side to stand in, and work together to suppress the other side. Just like the battle of Interpretation and the Three Purities, two enemies were used to measure the calamity.
End as soon as possible.
But which side is better to choose?
At this time, the Buddha was still hesitant.
From the perspective of others, if there is anything to hesitate about, of course I would choose Heaven.
But even the Buddha couldn't decide the pros and cons of this.
After a while, the Buddha's figure disappeared out of thin air and went into the chaos beyond the sky.
——
The lower world, the earth.
A fair-looking bald man wearing a cassock sat in a teahouse in a street garden in Qingshan City.
He looks in his mid-twenties, dressed in strange clothes, white, tender and handsome, attracting passers-by to turn around frequently.
This monk is very beautiful.
"I have seen this person that the seniors mentioned before!" The bald man calmly took a sip of tea, and an old man sat opposite him.
The old man nodded and said, "The Lord of Tribulation said that this person has arrived at Hunyuan Daluojin Fairyland, and asked me to try my best to win him over, but it's a pity that the Queen Mother of the West got in the way..."
The bald man said, "The last time I saw him, he was still under the Five Elements Mountain, and he was not yet at the Daluo Golden Immortal realm. Now, in just over a month, he has actually obtained the Hunyuan Dao Fruit. This person really has something extraordinary, and he has the Qi of Heaven.
Very lucky..."
"You are the Buddha of Merit and Virtue. It is really rare for you to say this!" The old man smiled. In terms of luck, how many people can compare with the Buddha of Merit and Virtue?
Upon hearing these three words, the bald man's face changed slightly, as if he had lost his composure.
But then it returned to normal.
"Senior, I heard that the war between the Heavenly Court and the Monster Clan was triggered by a Hunyuan Dao Fruit. I guess this Hunyuan Dao Fruit must be related to the Book of Mountains and Seas. I heard the news from the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom, that Dao
The fruit was taken away by a strong man in the Hunyuan Realm, and the strong man claimed to be a disciple of Emperor Gou Chen. It was such a coincidence. Senior, I think the person who stole the Dao Fruit must be this person. I am afraid that this person is related to the newly born person.
It’s related to the Classic of Mountains and Seas..." the bald man said.
The old man nodded, "There is no need to speculate, it is the fact. This Book of Mountains and Seas does not belong to this person, but to the Queen Mother of the West. This treasure will be of great use. The robbery master is determined to get this treasure. I have reported the situation to the robbery master.
But the Lord of Tribulation is at the critical moment when he breaks through the peak of Heavenly Dao Hunyuan and has no time to clone..."
The bald man said, "Can you and I alone take it down?"
The old man smiled bitterly, "If you and I work together, it might be difficult to subdue the Queen Mother of the West, let alone Chen Muyu, whose strength is unknown."
"No matter how strong he is, he can only enter the Hunyuan realm for the first time. I have great merits. Although I am only at the peak of Daluo Jinxian realm, with my merits, I should be able to fight with the early Hunyuan realm!" said the bald man.
The old man shook his head, "It's a tie at most. Besides, this person's luck is not inferior to yours. Moreover, this person's strength, how can you ensure that he is in the early stage of Hunyuan Realm?"
The bald man said, "It's only been so long. He can reach the Hunyuan realm, which is already the limit!"
"Ha ha……"
The old man laughed loudly and said, "Sanzang, you think too simply. With the destiny of Heaven in your body, let alone the Hunyuan realm, even if you are in the Hunyuan realm, you can achieve it overnight. When you became a Buddha on Lingshan Mountain, not
Is it just a matter of a moment?"
The bald man had nothing to say.
He is a meritorious Buddha, and he truly understands the benefits of merit and luck better than anyone else.
The old man said, "The Lord of Tribulation has asked the ancestors of Tianhe and Taibai Jinxing to come over. Let's talk about it after they meet up later!"
The bald man said, "The immortal world has become chaotic, and Buddhism is probably going to be in trouble as well. This time, no one can be immune. I think the Buddha's intention is that he may stand on the opposite side of heaven. Buddhism owes too much merit."
, too much to repay!”
The old man nodded slightly, "No matter what, this disaster will come sooner or later, and it should have come long ago!"
After saying that, the old man stood up and said, "When the great calamity comes, it's time for the earth to rise to the sky!"
The bald man was silent for a long time, and then he stood up and said, "I, the poor monk, should go and pay a visit to the Queen Mother of the West first!"
…
——
Riverside Villa No. 6.
Visitors come again.
On the rooftop balcony.
"Sanzang, I thought you would be different, but I didn't expect that you would also betray your faith!" Chen Muxue stood on the edge of the balcony, looking up at the waves of the river in the distance.
Tang Sanzang smiled bitterly, "Mother, you should know that my path to becoming a Buddha has always been planned by the gods and Buddhas in the gods. My existence is only to collect merits for Buddhism. Even my name, Merit Buddha
, it’s also so ironic, you said, how could I not want to fight?”
"What you call resistance is just jumping from one pit to another, bigger pit!" Chen Muxue said lightly.
