Chapter 421: I, Old Sun, have come to give you the money for the scriptures; write the scriptures silently
For Fahai today, let alone the wordless scripture, even if he goes back empty-handed, it is not impossible to communicate.
Just by using pen and ink, I can write down all the scriptures memorized in my mind.
Aren't these scriptures enough for the monks of the Tang Dynasty to learn?
In fact, it is enough.
But...if we go back like this, wouldn't this trip be in vain?
Moreover, he just walked around the Sutra Pavilion. If he really wanted Fahai to go back empty-handed, how could he just give up?
These thirty-five volumes, a total of fifteen thousand one hundred and forty-four volumes of scriptures... The poor monk wants them all, even one is missing.
He has a big appetite, but Lingshan is obviously not willing to suffer.
Fahai had no intention of breaking up with Lingshan for the moment, so...he had a suspicion in his mind. After stopping Wukong, he said to Anuo and Jiaye: "The sutra cannot be passed on lightly, nor can it be taken in vain.
..It turns out that my master and disciple were reckless."
Seeing Master Tripitaka suddenly speaking like this, Anuo and Gaye didn't know what to say to him. He just smiled and said, "The holy monk's words are serious."
It is also rumored that Master Tripitaka has a jealous temperament. Now that he has discovered that the scripture is a "wordless scripture", he can still speak to them in a gentle voice with a nine-ringed tin staff. How can he stop them from muttering in their hearts?
Although Master Sanzang said that he had understood the mystery of the "Wordless Sutra", the tone of his words still made them dare not relax for a moment.
While he was doubting, he heard Master Tripitaka say again: "Wukong... take those treasures to the Mahavira Hall and ask the Buddha... whether our gold and silver are enough to take the ones with the inscriptions on them."
Return to the Tang Dynasty."
The great sage immediately burst into joy and said: "Yes, I will come as soon as I go, disciple."
"Wait a minute." Fahai took the purple gold alms bowl and gave it to Wukong, saying: "Take this treasure and go with me as a teacher. This is the only treasure of the Tang Dynasty... If there is not enough gold and silver, we will add more."
This is the treasure."
Ah Nuo and Jia Ye wanted to stop them, but in the end they were forced by Fahai's gaze and took two steps back. When the two looked at each other, they looked at each other in confusion, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.
"Buddha." Before the Great Sage arrived, the voice had already spread in the Main Hall, "I, the old grandson, are here to give you the money to obtain Buddhist scriptures!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the Great Sage had already arrived at the temple.
Crash--
I saw him carrying a human race bag, and a lot of gold, silver and jewelry fell on the floor. It can be seen that they, master and apprentice, have indeed accumulated a lot of wealth along the way.
The Great Sage was also generous at this moment, not leaving any bit behind, and poured it all out.
It goes without saying that the tacit understanding between the Great Sage and the Master needs to be mentioned. As soon as the Master opened his mouth just now, he knew what the Master was thinking. The Master clearly wanted to empty the Sutra Pavilion...
The Great Sage even secretly pondered in his heart that even if there was no section of the Wordless Sutra, the Master would probably "take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble."
In the rather surprised gazes of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the Great Sage bowed his hands to the Buddha and said to the Buddha very proudly: "Master asked me, old grandson, to come and ask the Buddha for advice. I just asked these people and things whether they were enough to learn from the scriptures."
use."
After finishing speaking, the Great Sage paused again, took out a purple gold alms bowl from his arms, and said very solemnly: "This is the purple gold alms bowl that was given to me by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty when my master left the Tang Dynasty. If the gold and silver are not enough, this is the purple gold alms bowl."
You can also offer treasures."
This purple gold alms bowl is now well-known in the Three Realms. It can be said to be one of the three magical instruments for which Master Tripitaka became famous. The other two are naturally the nine-ring tin staff and the brocade cassock.
Many of the monks in the Main Hall were seeing them for the first time, so they looked away.
The Great Sage smiled when he saw it and said, "Do you want to try the Great Sun Buddha Flame?"
The scene was silent for a moment, and then everyone turned their attention to the Great Sun Tathagata.
The Great Sun Tathagata has his five hearts directed toward the sky, his eyes looking at his nose, his nose looking at his mouth, his mouth looking at his heart... and he is not moved.
The Buddha knew this very well, but he feigned anger and said, "How dare you, such a rambunctious monkey, play tricks on my Mahavira?"
Wukong took advantage of the situation and said: "Isn't this because you, Lingshan, have never sincerely saved people? That Anuo Jiaye asked my master for personnel, but was frightened by my two sticks and backed away. He knew that he was wrong, so he gave my master the "Wordless Sutra"
】...Fortunately, my master is a virtuous and eminent monk, and he can decipher the mystery at a glance... But although my master can decipher this wordless scripture, how can he spread the white paper to the three realms? Therefore, he sent me to send people.
, I need to get some scriptures with words... Isn’t this the rule of your Lingshan?"
"Why do you act like me, Sun Tiao, when I'm in front of your Buddha?" The Great Sage couldn't help but get angry, "Are these rules shameful? Do you have to deal with this matter behind others' backs?"
The Bodhisattva on the side listened to the words of the great sage and said to me: If anyone tells me again that this monkey has made progress following Tang Sanzang, the poor monk will definitely let him try the taste of the Three Lights Divine Water.
"go!"
The Buddha pointed at the gold and silver in front of him, and the gold and silver flew out of the spiritual mountain and scattered everywhere in the world. Then he couldn't help laughing and scolding the great sage: "You monkey, you are always naughty...don't do that."
Shouting, I already know about the Sutra Pavilion. What your master said is right. Sutras should not be passed down lightly, nor should they be taken in vain... It should be noted that when all the monks and saints came down from the mountain, they had this sutra in the Sravasti Kingdom.
My family recited it to him to ensure the safety of the living and the transcendence of the dead. I only asked him to return three dou and three liters of rice grains of gold. I also said that they sold it cheaply, leaving future generations with no money to use it... so they left it behind.
This is an unwritten rule."
"I have taken these gold and silver to no use. They have been scattered in the world." The Buddha looked serious, "There is no need to keep the purple gold alms bowl, and return it to your master...quickly took the scriptures and went to the Tang Dynasty.
Bar."
"Hehe!" the great sage said with a smile, then clasped his hands towards the Buddha and said, "Thank you very much, Buddha."
Then they left the Main Hall and went straight to the Sutra Pavilion.
"How dignified!"
After the Great Sage left, another angry voice came from nowhere.
Then there was a stir, and all of a sudden the whole Mahavira Palace was noisy and there was a lot of discussion.
The Buddha did not stop him. He sat on a high position and had an unobstructed view of the situation below. Then he turned his attention to the two Buddhas, Maitreya and Medicine Master.
Maitreya Buddha still had a smile on his face, while Medicine Buddha said: "Quiet!"
The commotion gradually subsided.
Let’s say that the Great Sage returned to the Sutra-Depository Pavilion, told the story of what happened in the Main Hall, and then called on a few junior disciples to go to the Sutra-Depository Pavilion.
A'nuo and Jiaye originally wanted to stop them, but they really didn't have the courage. After all, they knew very well what kind of temper Jin Chanzi had... Now that the true spirit has revived, not to mention that the Buddha is currently letting him
He... was afraid that the Buddha really wanted him to take over Lingshan. How could the two of them dare to offend him at this time?
Besides, the personnel and resources were given, and the Buddha agreed, so there was nothing left for them to do here.
only....
"Great Sage, wait a minute!"
A Nuo just turned around and saw that the Great Sage had moved the cabinet directly and put it into the human race bag... He was so horrified that he quickly stepped forward and subconsciously wanted to stop it.
But when the Great Sage glared at him, his steps immediately stopped and he was afraid to step forward.
He turned back to look at Master Tripitaka, but he only glanced at each other before his eyes were misaligned, and he turned to the side of Jiaye, looking for help.
Jia Ye also knew the importance and said quickly: "I'll come as soon as I go!"
At the same time, I thought to myself, where is this from learning from scriptures?
It’s clearly a robbery!
Gaye ran all the way to the Mahavira Hall and informed Buddha about the Sutra Pavilion, "Buddha, if you don't stop it, Sun Wukong will probably evacuate the Sutra Pavilion."
The Buddha didn't care at all. He wished that Tripitaka would move all the scriptures away, but he still wanted to make a gesture and asked Maitreya Buddha: "That human bag is the treasure of the Buddha from the east. I don't know."
What does the Buddha from the East want?"
Maitreya Buddha said with a smile: "Sanzang spared no effort to go far across the mountains to Lingshan to obtain scriptures. Moreover, just now the Buddha responded to the great sage's words... The poor monk thought that this was exactly how it should be."
"Does the ancient Buddha have any wise ideas?" Buddha asked the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng again.
"For this great act of kindness, all my Lingshan scriptures can be spread to the east, which is a blessing for Buddhism." It was only after the ancient Buddha converted to Buddhism that he achieved this great enlightenment, and his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.
It’s just that he kept a low profile in the future. When I turned into a Hu, the first one Upalatha Buddha found was not the Great Sun Tathagata, but the Ancient Buddha of Lighting Lamps... It’s a pity that he did not obey Upalatha Buddha’s request.
Compete with Duobao Tathagata for the position of Lord of Lingshan.
He didn't even come to Lingshan very often, he just practiced in seclusion in his own Taoist temple in Yuanjue Cave in Lingjiu Mountain.
This time, I came to Lingshan after receiving the Buddha's decree.
In the Mahavira Hall, the three Buddhas didn't have any opinions on this matter, and others naturally had nothing to say.
Gaye apologized, left the Mahavira Palace, returned to the Sutra Pavilion, called out Anuo, who was still holding on, and said to Master Tripitaka and the Great Sage: "The monk has asked before, and the Buddha said this
The scriptures can be used by the Dharma Master."
The Buddha also spoke, and the Great Sage and others were even more rude, and swept away all the scriptures here in a few seconds.
At this moment, in the Mahavira Hall, the Buddha slowly spoke: "It's a coincidence. There are fifteen thousand one hundred and forty-four monks up and down my spiritual mountain at this moment... which is exactly what the scriptures say."
After that, the Buddha gently waved his hand, and thousands of golden lights gathered in the sky above the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan. Then he heard the Buddha continue to say: "Each of you take one, and if you draw something, silently reveal it."
Guanyin Bodhisattva was the first to take action, attracting golden light with his hand. The golden light turned into a book page. Except for the words on the cover, the inside was completely blank. The Bodhisattva pointed to the words on the cover and smiled: "Hua Hua"
Volume 21 of Yan Jing."
Then I saw her palms clasped together, the corners of her lips slightly open, and the blank pages of the book were constantly turning in front of the Bodhisattva. And as the precious light was engraved one after another, sutras appeared on the originally blank pages.
arts.
"Amitabha!"
Maitreya Buddha, the Ancient Buddha of Burning Deng and the Medicine Buddha also took action.
Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Peacock Great Bright King Bodhisattva, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva, Sunlight Bodhisattva, and Moonlight Bodhisattva also followed -
Subduing the Dragon Arhat also wanted to take a portion, but seeing that many true Buddhas and Bodhisattvas had not yet taken action, he had to calm down for a moment. After all, he was not panicking... All these scriptures were recorded in his mind, and he was not afraid of not being able to draw.
of.
There was no way to hide. In the end, everyone in the Main Hall had a copy. Some of them had already been written, and some... could only stare at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
This is also normal. After all, not everyone can memorize so many sutras. Even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have their own strengths.
But like the Four Heavenly Kings, they don't have any trouble, because no matter which movie they are in... they can't remain silent.
As for whether these scriptures would be lost because of this, the Buddha did not have any worries about this, because in the entire Lingshan Mountain, there were not a few people who could silence these 15,144 volumes of scriptures.
For example, he himself, or Guanshiyin Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva...or maybe Tang Sanzang who had completely digested these scriptures.
But because of his sudden inspection, the joys and sorrows of the monks on Lingshan Mountain were not the same.
Even some real Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are as big as one head or two.
For example, the Great Sun Tathagata, and the Great Sage National Teacher King Bodhisattva... One of the two here is a specialized sect, and the other... It is simply the first time to come to Lingshan, and he is a self-cultivated Zhengguo Bodhisattva. These scriptures, he
It's really not clear.
On the contrary, the two brothers Jin Zha and Muzha were confident.
In fact, it’s not surprising when you think about it. After all, one of their masters is Manjushri Bodhisattva and the other is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva... No matter what, this professional knowledge is comprehensive and solid.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It is also rare for Buddha to be generous. Master and disciples waited for Anuo and Jiaye to finish copying their respective scriptures, and did not leave Lingshan directly to return to the Tang Dynasty.
He also made a special trip to the Main Hall to express his gratitude.
Naturally, I saw the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Mahavira Hall holding the pages of their books and not moving a word, pretending to be calm.
If you are silent, you will have finished your work long ago.
Those who have not finished writing are basically not writing a word and do not know how to write.
Anuo and Kaye led Tripitaka back into the hall. When Tathagata Buddha saw them, they raised the lotus throne and ordered the two Arhats to subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger, ringing the cloud chime.
Signaling three thousand Buddhas, three thousand enlightenments, eight vajras, four bodhisattvas, five hundred arhats, eight hundred monks, numerous upasakas, bhiksunis, upasikas, caves in various heavens, blessed land and spiritual mountains, great and small saints
Monks, those who should sit please ascend the throne, and those who should stand stand beside you. Put down all the things on your hands first.
For a moment, heavenly music could be heard in the distance, fairy music was blaring, and the sky was full of auspicious lights, full of auspiciousness——
After all the monks bowed to each other, the Buddha asked: "Anuo, Kaye, how many scriptures have you passed on to him? You can count them one by one."
This is a question I asked knowingly. The Tibetan Scripture Pavilion has now been moved cleanly... even mice would slip when they entered.
But Ah Nuo and Gaye still counted the numbers one by one, always with a sense of ritual.
After saying this, Fahai saluted the Buddha seriously and said, "Thank you very much, Buddha for giving me the sutra."
I have obtained both the unwritten scriptures and the written scriptures. This trip to the west is worth every penny!
If I remember correctly, there were only more than 5,000 volumes of scriptures that Master Tripitaka retrieved from the Tang Dynasty, and many of them were incomplete due to being wet.
"The merits of this sutra cannot be measured. Although it is a tortoise example for our sect, it is actually the origin of the three religions." The Buddha said to Tripitaka: "I know your intention to preach, but you must know that the treasure of the sutra is to be revealed to all living beings.
Don't be disrespectful..."
"Disciple, please remember this."
The Bodhisattva stood up at this time and said: "The poor monk who received the golden decree to seek the scriptures in the east has now succeeded. It lasted for a total of fourteen years, which is five thousand and forty days, eight days less, which does not match the number of treasures."
.”
After saying this, the Bodhisattva looked at Sanzang and said, "Sanzang, you can go back and forth within eight days, and you can complete the number of Sanzangs."
