Chapter 480: This matter... is not something we can decide on our own; Buddhism also has similar methods
It won't be long.
Everyone saw Master Sanzang walking out of the meditation room, his face was as usual, and there was no sign of solemnity.
But Li Shimin and others still couldn't rest assured. Prince Li Zhi stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, how is Si Zi?"
Fahai clasped his hands together and said: "There is no fear of life for now."
After listening to Master Sanzang's words, the Empress, who had been tense all the time, suddenly let go of her strength. Li Chengqian and Li Tai on the left and right quickly helped the empress to sit down, and said comfortingly: "Uncle Emperor is here, so is the empress.
You should be more at ease...Don't worry so much to avoid hurting your mind."
That's true, but what mother doesn't worry when her child is seriously ill and dying?
But Li Shimin heard the implication of Master Sanzang's words, so he asked along the way: "Maybe I can go in and see Sizi?"
"Okay, but please be gentle, Brother Huang. Sizi can sleep peacefully now. She still needs to calm down... don't wake her up."
After Li Shimin got the advice, he did not go in. Instead, he said to Cheng Qian and Qing Que: "Help your mother go and see Si Zi, remember to keep the noise down."
"yes."
The two sons had no intention of fighting at the moment, and helped the queen into the Zen room... Seeing that Sizi's face on the bed finally turned a little rosy, the queen couldn't help but have tears in her eyes...
"Mom, dad...Sizi is leaving, don't be sad."
But I heard Princess Jinyang murmuring in her dream, "Grandpa said that after I die, I can go to the Western Paradise to enjoy happiness... You should be happy for Si Zi... but... but..."
Sizi in the dream began to sob, "But you must miss me, Sizi will miss you too..."
The queen immediately burst into tears, but the next moment she reached out and covered her mouth and nose with her robe, for fear of making any noise that would disturb Si Zi.
Outside the Zen room.
Li Shimin's face became a little more solemn at this moment, and he asked Master Sanzang who was directly opposite him: "Brother Yu, the matter of Sizi... I'm afraid it's not that optimistic."
"Amitabha." Fa Hai shook his head and said: "It is useless to hide the matter now... Si Zi's illness can be cured... But the problem is that her life span... may have reached its end.
."
hiss--!
Li Shimin's heart suddenly tightened.
Li Zhi was also horrified and said to himself: It's a good thing that he let his mother into the Buddhist monastery first, otherwise if he had listened, he might have gotten sick again.
Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang did not expect that Master Sanzang would directly point out the key to the matter to Li Shimin. They took this matter to heart...most likely they just let it go and let nature take its course.
After all, the lifespan recorded in the book of life and death has been exhausted... How can it be possible to restore the life through human power?
Moreover, they all inherited from Taiqing Saints... Even Yuan Tiangang, who wanted to cause trouble, only wanted to make some changes in variables, but never thought of going against the will of heaven.
After all, fixed numbers and variables are both numbers of days.
As for the matter of Princess Jinyang at the moment, Yuan Tiangang's cultivation is not yet clear about the key... After all, Princess Jinyang is just a favored princess, and it seems to have nothing to do with the general trend of the Three Realms.
To put it more bluntly, Yuan Tiangang believed that the life and death of Princess Jinyang were insignificant.
He believed that Master Tripitaka was explaining the reason to His Majesty at this moment, most likely to inform His Majesty of the outcome of the matter, so that His Majesty would be mentally prepared...or could prepare for the funeral.
"Book of Life and Death."
Li Shimin clenched his fists, and suddenly there were dragon aura and Ziwei imperial aura surrounding him. The lower one penetrated the nine secluded areas, and the upper one broke through the sky... This was originally the wrath of the emperor on earth, but at this moment, it actually had the aura of a human king.
Boom boom boom!
The dragon energy that had almost formed into reality crashed into the gate of hell...when some evil spirits and bad ghosts saw it, they almost flew away.
But soon, a very heavy force appeared from the depths of the underworld, wrapping the dragon energy in one place and killing it all in an instant.
The one who took action was the Houtu Emperor. This was just the imperial energy that was occasionally inspired. Not to mention the ordinary little ghosts in the underworld, even some ghosts who had been around for many years could not withstand such power.
As for Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Emperor Fengdu, one is in Yinshan and the other is in Fengdu. If they had to wait for the two of them to take action, Yinsi would probably suffer a serious blow. Therefore, in the past, it was rare for Houtu Emperor to not ask about Yinsi's affairs.
Take one shot.
After only a few riots had calmed down in Houtuhuangdi, the ten palaces of Yama in the underworld were also gathered together, looking at each other... King Qin Guang even kept using his eyes to signal Judge Cui on the side: You boy... you dared to secretly secretly
Add twenty years to Li Shimin's life, why is he so dull today?
Not to mention that Li Shimin was originally a Ziwei descended to the earth, and in the future when his life span is over...that is, he will return to heaven after a calamity. If the little kings of the underworld are given small shoes because of these things...wouldn't it be a huge injustice?
This is also the fundamental reason why the Ten Palaces of Hell turned a blind eye to Cui Fan secretly adding twenty years to Li Shimin's life span.
Cui Pan, who received the hints from the eyes of several kings of hell, simply opened the book of life and death, sent it to the ten palaces of hell, and said: "Here is the book of life and death."
It is easier to change Li Shimin's Yangshou because he is the reincarnation of Emperor Ziwei. He has the imperial energy in his body and his soul is stable. The reason why he changed the Yangshou of Kou Yuanwai before is because he has indeed done good deeds in the world, plus he is endorsed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
, naturally it’s easy to start...
But this Princess of Jinyang... Cui Fan has seen it just now. Her origins are ordinary. Although she had good deeds in her previous life, they were limited... Otherwise, she would not have been reincarnated into the royal family, but she would only have a lifespan of just ten years.
.
If it really changes, it can only be done by a few kings of hell. Anyway, Cui Pang doesn't think he can withstand the backlash of the power of the Book of Life and Death.
How could they not know something that even Cui Pan knew?
It is not impossible to change the longevity recorded in the Book of Life and Death...but it is absolutely impossible to change it arbitrarily without any scruples.
Either it will harm your merit or your luck.
Back then, the great sage caused trouble in the underworld and tore up the book of life and death, and everything went wrong... It may not be without this reason.
It was also the great sage's strong luck, and he was worthy of being nurtured by the Heaven-Building Divine Stone. Otherwise, just because he crossed out all the names of the monkey genus... there would be no subsequent events.
The book of life and death was placed in front of them. King Yama flipped through it for a while and suddenly said: "This matter... is not something we can make the decision on our own, so why not just let nature take its course."
"Since we can't make the decision, we might as well ask those who can make the decision." King Chu Jiang suggested, "Otherwise, how about asking Emperor Fengdu and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"
"Inappropriate." Emperor Song shook his head, "Although the Book of Life and Death is in the underworld, it is not our magic weapon... Even Emperor Fengdu and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva cannot refine the Book of Life and Death...
Rather than asking them two, it would be better to go and ask the emperor of the land."
"But the Houtu Emperor only hides from the world, and it is difficult for us to even see each other. How can we ask for each other?"
King Pingping's words caused the whole scene to fall into stagnation again. Yama of the Tenth Palace stared with big eyes and small eyes, and no one spoke.
When Cui Fan saw the situation before him, he couldn't help but said, "Have you forgotten that there is an incarnation of Empress Houtu in the underworld?"
King Taishan clapped his hands immediately after hearing this, as if he suddenly realized: "Oh, Cui Pan didn't tell me, I almost forgot!"
The City King then followed up and said: "Since it is Cui Pan's idea... How about I trouble Cui Pan to make a trip?"
Then, all the Yamas from the ten palaces looked at Cui Pan.
How could Yama of the Tenth Palace forget this matter?
The dragon energy of the human emperor that broke into the underworld just now was resolved by Hou Tu Huangdi... But although this empress has a gentle temperament, she never has a good look towards them, the Ten Palaces of Yama.
...As time went by, they no longer bothered people in front of the Houtu Emperor.
How could Cui Pan not know that this was done intentionally by Yama of the Tenth Palace, but he was not afraid and walked towards Naihe Bridge.
"Junior Cui Jue, I have met your empress."
Cui Pan bowed to Po Meng who was making Meng Po soup on Naihe.
But Meng Po didn't have any reaction, she just filled bowls of Meng Po soup. The ghosts behind drank Meng Po soup one by one, completely forgetting the past, and went to reincarnation "cleanly".
The ghosts drank Meng Po soup and went to reincarnation... But the undercover guards guarding Naihe Bridge were extremely surprised when they saw Cui Pan bowing so respectfully to Meng Po and calling her "Empress".
After all, the fact that Po Meng is the incarnation of the Hou Tu Emperor is considered a small secret in the underworld.
What is a secret that is not too big or too small?
Everyone who should know about it knows it, but those who should not know it have never heard of it at all.
Cui Pan thought for a moment, and first ordered the Naihe Bridge to be temporarily blocked, and the ghosts on the bridge to be reincarnated first, then he filled several bowls of Meng Po soup, and then personally fed the Yin Chai who was guarding the Naihe Bridge to drink...
It wasn't until Naihe Bridge was cleared of all the idle people that Meng Po's eyes, which were slightly glazed over, started to look brighter.
Cui Pan just looked at each other for a moment, and then he felt a force that suppressed the mountains, lying on his shoulders. If he hadn't still had some cultivation, he would have been pressed to the ground by this force, unable to
Moved.
It wasn't until Po Meng looked away that Cui Pan felt that the force that seemed to be crushing him slowed down.
Huchi——Huchi——
Cui Pan gasped a few times, and after a moment of relief, he quickly saluted to Po Meng again: "Junior Cui Jue, I have met Empress Houtu."
"Without courtesy, why are you looking for me?"
Cui Pan quickly explained the matter of Princess Jinyang clearly to the Houtu Emperor.
"Emperor of the world." Po Meng pondered for a long time and then said to Cui Pan: "Li Mingda's name is no longer in the book of life and death."
"ah..."
Cui Pan did not expect this, but when Cui Pan was about to ask a few more questions, a spiritual spell suddenly appeared in his heart, and then he heard Empress Houtu say: "Look for me later, but
If you recite this mantra silently in your heart, you don't have to come here to disturb the reincarnation of the three realms."
Without Cui Pan's reply, the look in Po Meng's eyes returned to its previous sluggish state, and the power that had been suppressing her surroundings dissipated.
Obviously, Houtu Huangdi has returned, and Meng Po is on duty again.
Cui Pan still had some questions he wanted to ask...but Emperor Houtu had just left. He felt that it was not appropriate to call Empress Houtu with a curse at this moment.
When he returned to the underworld, all the Yamas from the Ten Palaces gathered around him and asked Cui Pan, "How did you do it?"
Cui Fan thought for a moment and then asked: "But the name of Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang disappeared from the book of life and death?"
"Of course it is."
Cui Pan thought for a moment and then decided to tell the truth: "Your Majesty just told me that Princess Jinyang's name has disappeared from the book of life and death. As for how it was done... Your Majesty didn't mention it."
The Tenth Hall Yama looked at the book of life and death in front of him, and eight out of ten were frowning...
Just then, they watched Li Mingda's name disappear. Not only the three words "Li Mingda", but also a brief description of her life, disappeared directly from the book of life and death... It was not like the great sage did that.
All the names and taboos of the genus are crossed out with a pen.
Is this the work of Empress Houtu?
They have been in charge of the Book of Life and Death for many years... It is not that they have never seen the names of human beings disappear from the Book of Life and Death, but those are all immortals who have achieved success in practice, or have achieved Zhengguo, and have jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the Five Elements;
Or if you become an immortal in heaven, you will naturally lose your death status in the underworld.
But Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang is obviously not one of them.
...
Ci'en Temple.
The Golden Light Immortal is already numb.
The Queen of Xiliang could not rob Lishan Laomu; the former crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian, could not rob Laojun... He recognized all these.
But why does someone want to get ahead of a Princess of Jinyang?
And although the person who took action was not the incarnation of a saint, Jin Guangxian really had no room for backhand in front of her.
Guanyin Bodhisattva took off a willow leaf from the willow branch in his hand. When the Buddha's light passed by, the willow leaf had turned into a pendant. Guanyin Bodhisattva personally hung it around Sizi's neck and said: "From today onwards
After that, you will be the disciple of the poor monk."
It's just that Sizi is still sleeping and hasn't woken up...
Li Shimin on the side looked solemn at this moment, because there were some things that he couldn't figure out, "My dear brother, even if the Bodhisattva accepts Si Zi as his disciple, her longevity..."
"Amitabha."
Fahai clasped his hands together and said to Li Shimin: "This is a trick... Your Majesty, you know that becoming an immortal can lead to immortality?"
"I know." Li Shimin nodded. Li Shimin also knew a lot about similar things. "When immortals enter the immortal book, they are no longer in the control of life and death."
After all, he wanted to ascend to the Fire Cloud Cave, so he specifically asked Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng for advice on these matters.
"Similarly." Fahai smiled and said, "Buddhism also has similar methods."
"Oh?" Li Shimin became interested immediately.
"The longevity of those who enter the Buddhist Kingdom is not subject to the Book of Life and Death." Fahai explained to Li Shimin: "In addition to entering the Buddhist Kingdom, ordinary mortals can do whatever they want if they go to Lingshan, Nanhai, Xumi Mountain and other Buddhist mountain gates.
With the approval of the family, and eventually joining the Buddhist scriptures... you can also escape from the book of life and death."
“Isn’t Yudi’s Consciousness-only Sect good?”
"I don't have the qualifications yet...but I guess that day is not too far away."
