Chapter 337: Worshiping is not about what you ask for, but respecting what you do
The seven female spiders know how powerful they are.
Because they recognized themselves clearly, so many powerful demon kings in the Three Realms were saved by Tang Sanzang's masters and disciples. Even though they had some magical abilities in Zhuogu Spring, they were no match for their masters and disciples.
Besides, their senior brother had specifically told him that if they saw Tang Sanzang, they would come directly to Huanghua Temple to look for him.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon King is a powerful monster and has developed a powerful magical power. When the Bull Demon King issued Juyi Tie a few years ago, he also received a copy.
If an ordinary demon saw such an invitation, he would naturally have no confidence in rejecting it, otherwise he would be disrespectful.
But the Bai-Eyed Demon Lord threw the invitation into his alchemy furnace. He believed that in today's Three Realms, it is best for demons to hide with their tails between their legs. Being as showy as the Bull Demon King will cause trouble sooner or later.
In fact, there was no difference from what the Hundred-Eyed Demon King expected. The slight difference was that the Bull Demon King led a group of demons to the door by himself, but was killed in one fell swoop.
Except for the fact that he was saved by Master Sanzang in the Flame Mountain, and all the demons under his command were wiped out, even his several sworn brothers who came to help him are still being punished in the heavenly prison at this moment.
What is even more unexpected is that his hometown, Ji Lei Mountain, was wiped out by the Tianhe Navy led by the Great Saint Jiao Demon King.
This huge gathering of monsters in Jilei Mountain made it possible for Erlang God Yang Jian and Tang Sanzang to become famous. In the end, the only people who had a close relationship with the Bull Demon King, apart from the great sage who did not come, was Cuiyun.
Princess Iron Fan, who was unable to escape from seclusion in the mountain, had only one life left.
If fairies want to live like fairies, the trick of taking over the mountain and becoming king has long since ceased to work.
If he practices alchemy in the deep mountains like this, not only can he achieve positive results, but he can also avoid many disasters.
It's a pity that he didn't think clearly this time. He thought he could subdue the Tripitaka Master with a wave of his hand without using a sword. After all, using poison was his special skill, so he was somewhat inferior.
It is said that he had been hiding in the mountains for a long time to practice, and he was also very cautious, so he should never provoke Tang Monk and his disciples.
Even if they are man-eating monsters, and the cave lair is on Master Tripitaka's only way to the west, wouldn't they go out and hide first, and wait until their master and disciples have passed Pansiling before coming back?
But that's exactly what happened. Although the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was cautious, he was very confident in his abilities. The most important thing was that he believed the "rumors".
Eating Tang Monk's meat can lead to immortality, Buddhahood and immortality.
He wants to become an immortal.
That's why he hid in the mountains to refine elixirs and practice Taoism, without even getting his hands on the seven delicate junior sisters, just to keep his vitality intact.
The reason why others couldn't eat Tang Seng was because Tang Seng was too powerful. They were all saved by Tang Seng, and Tang Sanzang was destined to die in his own hands.
In today's world, it seems that we no longer hear rumors of goblins being "scheming" and "insidious", but more "evil" and "cruel".
Demons also need to use their brains. A demon without a brain has a powerful magic power, but in the end it is just like a bull demon. Although it can be tyrannical for a while, it will not end well in the end.
The Bai-Eyed Demon King would still be grateful to the monster that just bumped into him stupidly. Otherwise, how could Tang Sanzang be unprepared and follow him directly into the Taoist temple?
Of course, Bai-Eyed Demon Lord didn't know that those monsters who had been transcended didn't want to plot. It was because the Master Tripitaka in front of him never gave these monsters a chance to make a move first. Usually, their masters and disciples would go up and knock on the door of the cave, and then proceed.
The matter of eliminating demons and subduing demons.
That time and that moment, just like this moment.
What is slightly different is that in most demon mansions, little demons come to open the door, but here, the master of Huanghua Temple comes to greet him personally.
The most interesting thing is that the Bai-Eyed Demon Lord set up a poisonous plot to harm Tang Seng and his disciples; Tang Seng and his disciples also knew that the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had set up a poisonous plot to harm themselves; but the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord did not know that Tang Seng and his disciples had already known about his plot.
The poisonous plan is to harm people.
Therefore, in this seemingly harmonious scene, both parties are performing to their heart's content. After all, they haven't encountered such a unique monster for a long time. They are always fighting and killing, which will also have some impact on the mind. It is rare to have a change of mood today.
.
The Bai-Eyed Demon Lord led the master and his disciples outside the main hall door, opened the door, and saw the statue of the Three Pure Ones, the offering table, the stove and the incense.
Fa Hai is a monk who respects etiquette. Even if he can temporarily liberate the demons in this place, it will not prevent him from adding incense to the furnace for Master Sanqing. On Wednesday -
The leader of Huanghua Temple was surprised: "The master is a Buddhist monk, how can he still worship me as a Taoist monk?"
"Although the clothes and hats are different, the practice is the same." Fahai said with a smile: "The poor monk is an ordinary monk. He worships the Buddha, the Nuwa Empress, the Three Pure Ones, the Queen of the Earth, the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, and also the sages of the human race."
"As a monk, you follow many faiths. Aren't you afraid that the Buddha will say that you are not sincere?" Baiyan Demon Lord felt that Master Tripitaka really had some skills, which was very different from the monks he had seen in Xizhou.
"Hahaha." Fahai smiled: "I don't worship for what I ask for, but to respect his deeds. I worship the Buddha for his great wish, worship Nuwa for creating man and mending the sky, worship the holy name of the Three Pure Ones, and worship the empress.
The land only transforms into six reincarnations. We worship the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to lead the human race to lay the foundation in the Three Realms, and we worship the human race’s sages to pass on and educate the human race.”
Fahai looked at the Hundred-Eyed Demon King and said, "May I ask the master, can the Buddha say that my heart is not sincere?"
Fahai has always believed that worshiping Buddha without asking for it is the right way to cultivate Buddhism.
The Buddha has shown the direction for believers. What practitioners have to do is to continue to enrich themselves along this direction and achieve positive results.
Of course, on the path of spiritual practice, it is inevitable that there will be people who make mistakes.
But this is not because there is a problem with the direction given by the Buddha, but because there is a deviation in my own understanding of the Tao, just like my previous determination against demons.
Cultivation, in addition to restraining one's distracting thoughts, practice is actually a process of constant self-correction.
Along the way, Fahai saw a Buddhist temple and a Taoist temple and went inside to worship. It was more like a salute than a prayer.
Even so, no one can single out the word "insincere" from it. If Master Tripitaka is "disloyal" to the Buddha, then there are really many believers in the world who are "insincere".
Perhaps only those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who practice in Lingshan are sincere.
"Worship without asking, the master's realm is so lofty that even a poor man admires him."
After hearing what Master Tripitaka said, Bai-Eyed Demon King was amazed in his heart. Regardless of whether Tang Sanzang's words were true or false, how many practitioners in the world could see through these words?
Anyway, Bai-Eyed Demon Lord, who has made great achievements in Taoism, has some mysterious insights in his heart.
Pity.
If you are not Tang Monk, perhaps Pindao can make friends with you and discuss Taoism.
Just like this, the Bai-Eyed Demon Lord became even more certain that the Master Tripitaka in front of him would become a Buddha. If he could refine the aura of his flesh and blood, he would definitely be able to transform into a flying immortal.
Demons like Bai-Eyed Demon Lord who are in tribulation will inevitably be affected mentally, just like a ghost who is obsessed with the mind. Many things that are usually revealed at a glance will now turn a blind eye even if the answers are placed in front of them.
At this moment, his heart has long been occupied by greed, and everything else has been forgotten.
"Master, please sit down." Even if the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord wants to harm Master Tripitaka, it will not prevent him from developing some respect for Master Tripitaka, but it has nothing to do with what he wants, and there is no conflict.
It is his own business whether he worships Master Sanzang but does not ask for it. If he worships Sanqing for what he wants, he will naturally become an immortal. Otherwise, why should he worship them?
It would be better to worship the Demon Emperor's statue.
I can also pray for the miraculous effect, and I sent Tang Sanzang to my door today, which shows that I am sincere.
Fa Hai's realm has long been extraordinary. After all, "one thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a devil" may be just talk to other monks. But to Fa Hai, it is really a matter of one thought.
It's just that he himself prefers to walk in the three realms in a mortal body.
And Fahai also truly understood why the Tathagata Zhengfa Ming was able to give up his position as a Buddha and transform into Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva to save all sentient beings.
Because those who can truly become a Buddha have no desire to become a Buddha.
Just imagine, what else can a monk who can become a Buddha but not a Buddha ask for from the Buddha?
Even if he really asked the Buddha for something, I am afraid that the Buddha would not be able to fulfill his great wish.
After inviting Master Sanzang and his disciples to sit down, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord waved his sleeves and said: "Watch the tea!"
When there were two children, they went inside, looked for the tea tray, washed the tea cups, wiped the teaspoons, and made tea.
The poison was actually prepared long ago, but if it was brought out too quickly, wouldn't it expose a flaw? Therefore, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord just hid the poison in the dates in advance and did not prepare any refreshments in advance.
This poison is also a wonderful thing that he has refined for a long time, and it is all obtained by refining elixirs during the day. He is a natural poison, and the elixir he refines is inherently poisonous.
What's more, it's a specially trained poison?
This poison also has a name. It is made from the feces of hundreds of birds in the mountains, swept up and accumulated thousands of pounds, then boiled in a copper pot, and then simmered evenly over low heat.
Boil a spoonful of a thousand pounds, and cook one third of it. Three thirds of it needs to be stir-fried, tempered, and smoked again.
Every process needs to be strictly controlled. If there is any mistake, the efficacy of the medicine will be lost.
He naturally knows how effective the medicine he refines is. If he takes it with a mortal, he will die if he takes just one centimeter. If he takes it with an immortal, he will die if he takes only three cents. This is why he invited Tang Sanzang and others to do so.
The greatest confidence in entering Taoism.
He also knew how powerful Master Tripitaka and others were, so he used enough weight to give them three centimeters of medicine alone.
If this poison is hidden in water, it will inevitably spread, and it may not be able to hide it from their master and disciples.
So I took fifteen red dates, broke the jujube skin, took out the jujube core, put the medicine into the jujube, and made a red jujube tea.
Huh.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was suddenly stunned, thinking: Why is there no trace of the little white dragon?
not good!
Sure enough, the little boy came out with a tea tray, and there were five tea bells on it.
Because I was afraid that the news would be leaked, I never mentioned this matter to the child. I just prepared fifteen fresh red dates and two old black dates. The fifteen fresh red dates were naturally poisonous, and the two old black dates were my own.
But at this moment, the little white dragon disappeared, and the boy didn't know his own plan, so he only put three red dates in a tea bell.
The most powerful thing about this poison is that he himself has no way to detoxify it. If even three millimeters of poison is removed, he will definitely die with it.
The Bai-Eyed Demon Lord was a little panicked for a moment. He didn't expect that he had made a miscalculation here. But he quickly calmed down. After all, this was the poison he made himself, and he already knew that the tea bell was poisonous. He would drink the tea later.
At that time, they just waited for their master and apprentice to eat first.
The five-course tea is so identical that you don’t have to explain it verbally.
He said so comfortingly in his heart.
Of course he didn't know that the Great Sage had seen everything a long time ago, and the master and disciples had already known from the Great Sage that if the poisonous dates in the tea bell had not been fully informed of his plan, Fahai would never have entered the temple.
, and captured him outside the palace.
Everyone knew the mechanism in advance, and when they saw the little boy delivering five cups of tea to each of them, and when they saw the leader of Huanghua Temple lose his mind for a moment, even Bajie noticed something strange.
Interesting, interesting.
Originally there was a cup of Xiaobailong.
"There are no spiritual fruits in my mountain, but this red date is worthy of praise." The leader of Huanghua Temple took the initiative to pick up the tea bell in his hand and signaled to Master Sanzang and his disciples: "Elders, please taste it."
He raised his glass first.
The master and disciples also picked up the tea bells.
When he saw that the master and the disciples were defenseless and happy in his heart, he poured the tea into his mouth. When he saw that the master and the disciples were all doing the same thing, he thought to himself: The plan is done!
Because he was holding the tea bell in both hands, he only stretched out his sleeves when he reached his mouth, hid the tea bell inside, and seemed to raise his head and drink the contents of the cup in one gulp.
Just as he was about to put down the tea bell, he heard the Buddha's name.
"Amitabha." Fahai recited the Buddha's name: "Why did the Taoist pour all the tea -"
The figure of the Hundred-Eyed Demon suddenly froze, and then with confusion in his heart, he saw that the other master and the disciples did not put the tea that was brought to his mouth into his mouth when he was "drinking tea". At this moment, four cups
The tea was placed on the table intact. It was obvious that they had seen through their plan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What exactly went wrong?
It should have been a sure thing, but something went wrong, especially the two results that were completely opposite to the Bai-Eyed Demon Lord's psychological expectations, which inevitably made him confused.
"should".
Often when this word appears in a person's mind, there is a high probability that an "should not" result will appear.
Just like now.
"When was it?" Bai-Eyed Demon Lord asked.
"Half an hour ago."
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord stopped talking, because half an hour ago, it was the time when he poured poison into the red dates.
In other words, they knew from the beginning that they were going to poison.
Fahai took out the golden bowl, placed it in front of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and said, "Shall the Taoist go in by yourself, or will the monk invite you in?"
How could the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord sit still and wait for death? Seeing that his plan had been discovered long ago, he immediately wanted to kick the table over. However, Fahai's hand was pressed on it and he just kicked the chopping board into pieces. Then he took a sword and pointed it towards the table closest to him.
The great sage slashed across, and at the same time let out a long roar!
Naturally, he was notifying the seven spider spirits to come to help.
But the seven spider spirits have long been busy with themselves. Wu Jing has already separated out seven spiritual bodies, and is currently fighting with the seven spider spirits.
As the name suggests, the spirit body naturally has no entity. The spider spirit's special skill is spinning spider silk. But facing the seven obsessive spirits that have no entity, isn't it completely useless?
The Seven Stars Suppress the Demonic Power.
This is a formation that Wu Jing realized by observing the sky at night, and it is the first time he has used it. There are many similar formations, but to deal with these seven spider spirits, it is obviously not enough to use them.
In the main hall, the Taoist boy had already fled. Bajie caught up with him and knocked him down with a palladium, saying, "Master, this Taoist boy is a human being, not a goblin."
