As King Zhou fell into the underworld, it seemed that some peace had returned.
After all, the Xuanyuan Sword and the Mountain-Building Ax are sacred weapons of the human race. Nowadays, the human race has no king, and these two magical weapons are only enlightened through Fahai. Since they have gained this time, they were naturally taken away by the two majesties.
Yang Jian looked at the mountain-breaking ax flying through the air, and he could not help but think of the scene when he was chopping the mountain. If he was holding the mountain-chopping ax of King Yu when he was chopping the mountain, would he be able to split the shackles of the rules of heaven?
To be honest, Yang Jian didn't have the confidence in his heart, but it was just a thought. But now that he knew that his mother's life was safe, and Cun Xin was pregnant, Yang Jian's daily expression became less cold and more gentle.
But what he saw today almost made him unable to suppress the anger in his heart.
The Great Sage was right. The calamity of that day was really unworthy of human beings. It was clear that the last calamity thunder struck down, which would make King Zhou's soul fly away and turn into ashes. But he didn't expect to do such a thing, and he asked Master Sanzang to arrest him.
He took advantage of a rare opportunity to help King Zhou get out of trouble.
"Bodhisattva." While Yang Jian was thinking in his mind, he heard Master Tripitaka on the side asking Bodhisattva: "I don't know anything, please ask Bodhisattva to clarify my doubts."
"Speak." The corners of the Bodhisattva's mouth slightly raised. I don't know why. He also felt that he was in a good mood today, but because he couldn't show it, he had to hold his head even more at this moment.
"Can Heavenly Tribulation be controlled by others?"
The Bodhisattva nodded first, then shook his head.
what for?
Everyone is confused and waits for the Bodhisattva to clear up their doubts.
"The Jade Emperor, Gouchen, Ziwei and the Universal Heavenly Lord all have the ability to mobilize the heavenly tribulation." The Bodhisattva pointed to the sky and said: "But the heavenly tribulation just now was directly caused by the way of heaven."
"How can you see it?" Yang Jian was also curious.
"You who only cultivate supernatural powers and study martial arts and Taoism are always lacking, so it is difficult to detect the key points." The Bodhisattva glanced around Yang Jian, Wukong and Sanzang, and said with a smile: "In the future, if you need to concentrate on it, there will be success.
When it is done, you will know the reason then. It is so mysterious that words cannot explain it."
The three of them looked at each other, but they didn't feel embarrassed. After all, the Taoist practice mentioned by the Bodhisattva will not be effective unless it is accumulated over time. Yang Jian and Wukong both seem to be a thousand years old, but when it comes to practice that can take thousands of years to start,
In the world, he is still a decent young man.
Not to mention Master Tripitaka, even with the addition of "Jin Chanzi", his years of practice are not much longer than those of Yang Jian and the Great Sage.
The Bodhisattva only told them "what" and not "why". In fact, he wanted to use this to seduce the three of them to pursue the Tao.
The great sage scratched his head and suddenly smiled and said: "What the Bodhisattva said is to ask the disciple to wait for the number of heavens to be known. However, the disciple has always been a restless person. Fortunately, I still have a master who can learn from me. It doesn't matter whether I learn from it or not."
Study, study, study. If the disciple has not finished his study, after he has successfully learned the scriptures and completed the practice, he will go to Huaguo Mountain to retreat and practice intensively."
As he was speaking, he saw his master's eyes drifting towards him, and he quickly changed his words.
Fahai thought thoughtfully: "Bodhisattva, how many days will it take King Zhou to escape from trouble this time?"
The Bodhisattva shook his head and said: "It is difficult for a poor monk to understand the key points at this time. But if you insist on telling me, there is an explanation."
Everyone's eyes were focused on it, and their ears were perked up——
"The past is a fixed number, and the future is a variable. Fixed numbers and variables are all numbers of days."
The great sage asked out of curiosity: "Is King Zhou's escape from trouble a variable or a certain number? If according to the Bodhisattva's words, the past is a certain number, doesn't that mean that King Zhou's escape from trouble is a certain number?"
Yang Jian said again: "It's still wrong. If King Zhou's escape is a given, why would the Heavenly Dao bring down the calamity cloud again? If Master Tripitaka hadn't taken action at that time, how would King Zhou have a chance to escape?"
The Bodhisattva explained: "As the saying goes, the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and if a person escapes even one, how do you know that the number of King Zhou's escape is not determined by variables? But now that things have happened, no matter what the variables were before, it is a number.
"
Yang Jian was also thinking deeply at this moment. He smiled and said: "The Bodhisattva said a lot, but Yang Jian heard four words from it."
"Oh, which four words?"
"It all depends on man."
Fahai also smiled and said: "Maybe man can conquer heaven."
"You two are so angry." The Bodhisattva laughed and scolded: "If it hadn't been for the two human kings taking action today, just because of the unnatural things you Tang Sanzang did, you would have lost your skin even if you didn't die, and you would still be acting like a good boy here. Hum,
This poor monk looks at you, this mortal monk, who is the biggest variable."
The Bodhisattva was not angry when he saw Tripitaka, and said again: "Tang Sanzang, the poor monk knows that you have the universe in your heart, but it is exactly like this. The more you have to know how to restrain yourself, if you don't know the determination of heaven, how can you change the world? The universe changes, and the three realms of the universe change.
, Heaven’s heart is unpredictable, otherwise why would the many sages of the human race enter the Fire Cloud Cave to practice hard in Taoism?”
The Bodhisattva carefully reminded me, and Fa Hai listened to the teachings with sincerity. But in the past, the Bodhisattva always taught me to practice compassion. Why did I teach him in such words today?
What do you want to do on your own?
Fa Hai kept this in his heart and did not show it. He could more or less sense that something was not right about the Bodhisattva's state. Could it be that there was something wrong with his practice?
"Sanzo."
"The disciple is here."
"We are halfway through the journey to the west. There will always be difficulties in the future. You should keep your heart and nature and don't lose your mind."
"This is from the disciple province."
After Fahai agreed, when he looked up again, he saw the Bodhisattva summoning a strange beast from nowhere, sitting on it and walking away.
The Bodhisattva was in the South China Sea, and because he saw Tripitaka in danger of a catastrophe, it was difficult to reach him with only the strength of his legs, so he took out the Golden Roar and carried her for a ride.
Now that she is sitting on the Golden Roar, she does not go to the South China Sea, but to the west, hoping to return the Golden Roar to the Tathagata Buddha.
Not long after the Bodhisattva walked, he saw a slope and saw two small peacocks, one female and one male, falling on the slope. The Bodhisattva counted with his fingers and knew that this slope was called "Luofeng Slope".
I also saw a young general riding a horse, bending his bow, letting the eagle and dogs loose, and shooting two arrows from a distance. The Bodhisattva knew it clearly after just one look. It is said that this is also a certain number——
This young general is the prince of the East Palace of the Zhuzi Kingdom. Because he is an excellent hunter, he wants to shoot a male bird and kill a female bird in front of Luofeng Slope. And these two chicks are the peacocks of the Western Buddha, the Great Ming King Bodhisattva.
He was born. Therefore, he caused the Buddha Mother to bring disaster. After the prince succeeded to the throne, he wanted to kill him for three years. He suffered from many illnesses and was fully repaid.
The one who caused this misfortune was none other than Jin Maohou who sat down on him.
fixed variable
The Bodhisattva reached out and pointed, and two sharp arrows were about to hit the two peacocks and then hovered in the air.
"Who spoiled me for hunting?"
The Bodhisattva appeared in mid-air and said: "The poor monk Nanhai Avalokitesvara."
"Oh!" the young prince exclaimed, dismounted from his horse and paid homage, saying, "My little king didn't know that the Bodhisattva is driving in the clouds. I hope that Bodhisattva will forgive me."
The two chicks were born to the Peacock King Bodhisattva, and they actually had a bit of Buddha nature. When the Bodhisattva appeared, they flew into the clouds, landed in front of the Bodhisattva, and kowtowed: "Thank you Bodhisattva for saving your life."
The Bodhisattva thought for a while and said: "These two birds"
The prince said: "Bodhisattva, the little king almost shot them. Why don't you ask the little king to take them back to the East Palace and feed them carefully?"
