Su Wen calmed down and saw sitting in front of him a skinny and skinny monk with sunken eye sockets who looked like a skeleton.
And he himself sat cross-legged opposite the monk.
"Suwen."
When the monk saw Su Wen open his eyes, he nodded slightly and called his name softly.
When he heard the monk call his name, he thought of the other person's name.
"Juxian Bodhisattva?"
Su Wen asked tentatively.
After all, the Juxian Bodhisattva encountered in the desert was just a soul that descended on Bichen, and his voice was somewhat different.
"It's Lao Na."
Juxian Bodhisattva's voice was gentle, but his breath was slightly irregular. He severely injured Long Aotian in a self-destructive way, and he also paid a heavy price. In front of Su Wen, he did not think about hiding the fact that he had been hurt.
Su Wen suddenly understood.
The reason why the Silver Light Arhat was able to construct the teleportation array so quickly was originally the result of early arrangements by Juxian Bodhisattva.
The Silver Light Arhat only activated the teleportation array that had been arranged in the first place, thus being able to instantly transport Su Wen to Juxian Bodhisattva.
"Why did the Bodhisattva bring me to the Buddha's kingdom at all costs and troubles? You don't really believe in the deception, do you?"
Su Wen thought for a while and decided to get straight to the point and express his doubts.
Juxian Bodhisattva smiled calmly: "Didn't the donor also plan to come to my Buddhist country and lead disasters to the Pure Land?"
"this……"
Su Wen was shocked.
He did have such an idea, and even discussed it with Sai Hu, but Juxian Bodhisattva was so far away from him, how could he know it?
"This is just a plan, I didn't really think about it being implemented..."
Su Wen said sarcastically: "You can't judge a person's behavior based on his thoughts and deeds, regardless of his heart."
"Cultivating Buddhism means cultivating the mind."
Juxian Bodhisattva responded and stood up unhurriedly. Su Wen followed closely behind and followed Juxian Bodhisattva forward.
Only then did Su Wen notice the environment. He was in a small temple and Buddhist hall. He just looked up and saw that there was no Buddha statue. There was only a big cauldron-like incense burner on the altar, with a small incense burning on it. The smoke curled up like
The thread exudes a faint scent of sandalwood.
"Is this the Bodhisattva dojo?"
Su Wen asked tentatively.
"That's right." Juxian Bodhisattva responded.
No wonder Su Wenxin said. Since it is the dojo of Juxian Bodhisattva, then the biggest person in this place is Juxian Bodhisattva, so naturally he will not worship other people.
Think about it, the monasteries of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are also like this.
But Su Wen stopped talking.
Juxian Bodhisattva did not answer the question he just asked, but changed the subject.
Now he was taking him somewhere else unhurriedly, which made him even more uneasy.
After leaving the Buddhist hall, there is a garden, pavilions, bridges, flowing water, birds singing and flowers fragrant, a very peaceful scene.
It's just that there is no other person in the whole garden.
"This is Lao Na's dojo, so naturally no one else will come."
Seeing Su Wen's stunned look, Juxian Bodhisattva explained again and led Su Wen to a pavilion.
Seeing the Juxian Bodhisattva looking back at him with a smile on his skeleton-like face, Su Wen felt a little creepy.
He has seen terrifying existences, and even almost lost his mind under the influence of the power of pollution.
But after all, those extraordinary powers were mixed in, causing impact and damage to the spiritual intelligence, and it was not as strange as the scene seen now.
There was a low couch in the pavilion with a tea set from Jingchu and a small stove that was boiling water.
Juxian Bodhisattva motioned Su Wen to sit down, pointed to the tea set on it and said: "These tea sets and tea leaves are all from Guan Nei, you can do it yourself." As he spoke, he lifted a clay pot under the couch and put it to his mouth.
On the side, the cow had a slurping drink.
"hiss……"
After drinking most of the water in the clay pot, Juxian Bodhisattva sighed: "The poor monk always likes a simple and simple life, so I don't like this."
Su Wen nodded.
He did not doubt that Juxian Bodhisattva told lies, because Juxian Bodhisattva's clothes were also very old, and there were even a few palm-sized patches on them, and his feet were bare.
This is a person who has almost no pursuit of material life.
What's valuable is that he still carefully prepared tea and tea sets from Jingchu for Su Wen. Su Wen didn't know whether the tea was good or bad, but he could clearly see the words "imperial system" on the tea sets and knew they were from the Jingchu royal family.
Specially made tributes are rarely seen by ordinary people.
Su Wen did not make tea for himself, but returned to the topic: "The Bodhisattva hasn't answered my question yet. You should know that if I stay in the Pure Land world, I will definitely bring unnecessary trouble to the Buddhist country, and you have already caused these troubles."
I’ve seen some.”
"Indeed." Juxian Bodhisattva was deeply convinced by Su Wen's self-understanding.
He found it a bit incredible that Su Wen was still alive and kicking after provoking powerful foreign powers, offending Kunluo Great Chanyu, and Black Hu Old Shaman.
When he took Su Wen away, it was like he had formed a grudge with these powerful people, which could not be easily solved.
In particular, the Royal Court of Rouran has always been eyeing the countries in the Western Regions, and the Buddhist Kingdom is also under the threat of the Royal Court's cavalry. If you are not careful, it will be a tragic war.
Of course, with the power of the Buddhist Kingdom, there is no need to worry about being severely damaged, but the Pure Land world will inevitably cause bloodshed. This is completely different from the purpose of the Buddhist Kingdom and will inevitably attract criticism.
"At first, when Jie Fang and Jie Cheng found the poor monk, the poor monk did not believe their words."
"Jie Cheng?"
Hearing this unfamiliar name, Su Wen was slightly startled, and then suddenly realized: "Are we brothers?"
Juxian Bodhisattva nodded slightly, and naturally did not bother to answer such a trivial matter: "One of them is a political strategist, and the other one is a rare extraordinary person with both business and magician paths. Among them, the magician's skills are not low. He calculated that
I told you something about your fate with Buddhism, and successfully attracted my attention."
Su Wen carefully picked up the kettle and poured himself a cup of hot water. Looking at the rising steam, he felt very wary. He didn't know what rumors the "Equation Solvers" brothers had made about him, so that Juxian Bodhisattva
Such a being couldn't hold himself back and personally took him to Savatthi State.
"So the poor monk invited three Bodhisattvas and six Arhats to jointly deduce the possible relationship between you and the Buddhist Kingdom."
"How is the result……"
Su Wen picked up the water glass, but did not put it to his mouth. He twitched the corners of his mouth and forced out an ugly smile.
"The conclusions reached are strange."
Juxian Bodhisattva remained calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter: "The seven of us clearly used the ability of Su Xin Tong together, but we came to different conclusions."
"Originally there was only one answer, one possible deduction, but the final result was two, and they were at the right extremes."
"What result?"
Su Wen frowned, put the water glass on his lips, touched it gently, moistened his lips and put it down.
"Part of them thinks that you will bring disaster to Buddhism, disrupt Buddhist scriptures, disturb the minds of Buddhists, and cause Buddhism to be divided and weakened."
"Uh... Bodhisattva, I don't think I have this ability."
Su Wen smiled bitterly.
"No, you do."
Juxian Bodhisattva was not hostile to Su Wen because of this conclusion, and continued: "The other half of the Bodhisattva, Arhat, told me that you can bring new truths to Buddhism and guide Buddhism to new glory. Under the shining of Buddha's light,
, all the earth is a paradise."
"Ahem..."
Hearing this, Su Wen almost choked on his saliva. He quickly said: "Bodhisattva, I really don't have this ability. You know that I am a Confucian scholar. How can I bring such a change to Buddhism?"
"Haha..." Juxian Bodhisattva raised his eyelids, stared at Su Wen with his deep-set eyes and said, "Then you mean that you can only bring disaster to Buddhism?"
"Well?!"
Hearing this, Su Wen's heart skipped a beat and he quickly explained: "This is impossible, absolutely impossible. How can I have such ability!"
He could hear the unkind meaning in Juxian Bodhisattva's tone.
Juxian Bodhisattva shook his head and said: "The poor monk and others also don't believe it, but after repeated arguments, the result is that I will bring you back to this place to find out."
"..."
Su Wen smacked his lips.
"What plans do you have for me next?"
He asked tentatively.
"Just stay here with peace of mind."
Juxian Bodhisattva replied calmly: "We will discuss it later when the Buddhas wake up."
"The Buddhas are awake?"
Questions flashed through Su Wen's mind.
Juxian Bodhisattva took a deep look at Su Wen, but did not answer.
"To be honest, the Daliang Dynasty is far away from the Buddhist Kingdom, and the traffic is cut off by the Royal Palace of Rouran. I know very little about the affairs of the Buddhist Kingdom." Su Wen apologized and continued: "If the Bodhisattva finds it inconvenient,
Ignore it."
"There's nothing to say."
When Su Wen said this, Juxian Bodhisattva smiled calmly. The smile made Su Wen feel creepy.
"The Buddha's Dharma and appearance are like the saints of the Great Dao. They are outside the sky and in the sea of blood to suppress evil spirits. Their true bodies are in deep sleep. Every once in a while, the Lord Buddha wakes up."
"I see!"
Su Wen suddenly realized.
Within the pass, once an extraordinary person is promoted to sequence five, he will have the responsibility of guarding the secret realm.
But in most cases, there is no need to actually appear in the secret place.
Only those who have reached the sub-saint level of Sequence Six will have certain mandatory requirements.
As for the saint level, Su Wen has never seen it in the human world, but he generally understands that the powerful people at these levels are basically scattered all over the world, guarding the peace of the world. But what he didn't expect was that not only Baijia
Extraordinary saints behave in this way, as do Buddhists, and all Buddhas also perform such duties.
This increased Su Wen's favorable impression of Buddhism a lot.
The only problem is that since the Buddhas are stationed outside the heavens, it is unknown when they will wake up, and the time he will be under house arrest in the Buddha's country is also unknown.
Moreover... the return of Buddhas is not necessarily a good thing.
"What if they think I'm a hidden danger... then what?"
Su Wen thought anxiously.
He quickly made up his mind that he would never let his fate be controlled by others, not even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas!
