Chapter 682: 'Differential' treatment; why did the donor give such a great gift?
The power of the will of all living beings is so powerful that it can be said to be the power of another system in the Three Realms.
It is not the same as the traditional practice method. It can even be said to be fundamentally different.
The reason why the three religions had religious authority disputes at that time was to compete for the power of these incense wishes. However, the monks of the three religions later discovered that although these incense wishes were powerful and could greatly increase their own strength, they could also affect their strength.
My own original practice creates quite a few shackles.
In order to pursue the supreme road, Taoist practitioners began to actively give up these vows...and this gap was seized by Buddhism, which was in urgent need of developing its own strength, so there was a great development of Buddhism.
The great prosperity that is based on the will of all sentient beings, after all, lacks some foundation... it is far less solid than its own strength.
This is why the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism will establish and manage their own Buddhist kingdoms one by one, just to ensure that their own incense and vows can have a stable guarantee.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to form a large and effective supply just by relying on the faith of the common people.
This is not to say that it is absolutely impossible. It seems that Guanyin Bodhisattva, who is worshiped by all living beings in the three realms, has no worries about insufficient faith.
However, beings like Guanyin Bodhisattva do not need the power of incense and vows to improve themselves at all, but focus more on their own practice.
But how many people like Guanyin Bodhisattva are there in the Lingshan Buddha assembly?
If Xiao Bailong had not practiced with his master before, he would not have been able to withstand such a temptation, but if he had not practiced under his master and went to the West to learn scriptures together, he would never have had such an opportunity.
From White Dragon Bodhisattva to White Dragon Leader, whether it is the attainment of Bodhisattva or the status of leader, it is not what Little White Dragon himself seeks at all.
And Xiao Bailong's appeal was also very simple, that is, he wanted his master to shave his head... But it was just a piece of cake for the master, but he just didn't do it.
Moreover, the master's love for him was no worse than that of his senior brothers, but he was treated in such a "different" manner, which made Xiao Bailong very distressed.
Maybe this is what Buddhism calls unavailability.
You often don't get what you want; and those things that you don't care about, or even dismiss, will take the initiative to get it... Even if these things are very precious, they are not
Don't let little waves rise in Xiao Bailong's heart.
Just like when we were traveling westward, many beautiful fairies and princesses took the initiative to fall in love with Little White Dragon, but Little White Dragon always rejected every one of them equally.
It's just that the wish power generated by these little demons is not something he can refuse just because he wants to.
Maybe Xiao Bailong himself doesn't know it yet, but his existence has almost become a beam of light for these little monsters in the Three Realms. Almost all the little monsters' yearning for the future is pinned on Xiao Bailong.
.But this does not prevent Xiao Bailong from knowing what kind of blow it will be to them if he says something that disappoints them at this time.
Just like the master who was unwilling to become a Buddha, but finally had to realize the Tathagata by himself under an imperial edict from the Jade Emperor.
When I find that what I carry on my shoulders is no longer just my own head, but a heavier responsibility, I can no longer let my temper make some choices.
But whether he is the White Dragon Bodhisattva or the leader of the White Dragon Cult, Little White Dragon is still Little White Dragon. He is first the Third Prince of Xihai of the Dragon Clan, and then the chief lay disciple of Tripitaka Saint Buddha.
While ensuring that his position remains firm and unwavering, he will play the role of White Dragon Bodhisattva and White Dragon Cult Leader, protect more little demons, and guide them to the right path.
For Xiao Bailong, he does not need to worry about the affairs of the human race... As for the affairs of the dragon clan, not to mention that his father and three uncles are still alive, his eldest brother is enough to shoulder the important responsibilities, and there is no room for him to interfere.
It's no wonder that he is obsessed with these little monsters. Firstly, he has already started to deal with this problem; secondly, doesn't it just show the kind nature of Xiaobailong?
If it was the Great Sage who was the pioneer and sneaked into the cave, the little demons would not only have lost their lives, but the Three Realms would also have lost a White Dragon Bodhisattva.
And it all started in the Huangfeng Cave in Huangfengling, eight hundred miles away. As the first White Dragon Temple in the Three Realms, it has now become a holy place in the hearts of the followers of the White Dragon Sect.
There are always newcomers who come from behind in the Three Realms. In fact, this was the case for Yang Jian back then and Sanzang today.
If Xiao Bailong really accepts these wishes, his strength will probably skyrocket in a very short period of time.
When Master Yuding taught Yang Jian back then, he told him that the source of mana in the Three Realms is not just dependent on cultivation. In fact, the seven emotions and six desires, such as love, hate, love, hatred, life and death, can become the source of one's own power.
In addition to these factors mentioned by Master Yuding, in fact, the understanding of Buddhism, Taoism, and even Confucian scriptures can become the source of one's own magic power... Fahai's magic power comes precisely from his Buddhism, otherwise
With just more than ten years of practice, how did he reach this level?
The power of will also has the same effect, and it is even easier and more convenient.
Xiao Bailong undoubtedly has great perseverance, or it can be said that the obsession in his heart is greater than all the temptations from the outside world.
In fact, many times, obsession often has a negative effect on one's own practice, but Xiao Bailong is obviously different. He is a typical example of obsession that rarely has a positive effect.
Several disciples of Tripitaka Buddha's sect in Daci'en Temple are all talented people in the three realms. Even if they are scattered in various places now, they are still like stars in the sky, benefiting the three realms.
Although Bajie wants to stay in Changbai Mountain temporarily to guard the reincarnation array... But everyone knows that as long as the remnant souls in the reincarnation array, especially those who were imprinted with witchcraft by the Tianchi witch in Changbai Mountain,
The remnant soul can complete the repair of the divine soul and go to the six realms of reincarnation in the underworld for true reincarnation. Bajie will receive an immeasurable power of merit.
This is how it should be.
But all this changed dramatically after a hunter killed a rabbit.
This day.
Bajie was wandering around Changbai Mountain accompanied by Huang Xiuer.
Suddenly, Bajie smelled an unusual aroma.
After they followed the scent and found the source, Bajie's expression started to look a little strange.
At first, Huang Xiuer thought it was because the hunter hunted rabbits and did not take them out of Changbai Mountain. Instead, he lit a fire and roasted the rabbits on the spot... Although Zen Master Wu Neng said that he didn't mind others eating meat, he didn't mind.
First, what about the scene? After all, he is a disciple of Buddhism, how could he have no scruples about this?
Even Huang Xiuer remained silent and did not dare to speak.
By chance, he was caught by Orion. When he saw that it was Zen Master Wu Neng himself, he was horrified and subconsciously threw the roasted rabbit on the ground, kneeling down in the direction of Zen Master Wu Neng to admit his mistake.
This made him not panic.
Who doesn't know that although the five immortal families have the final say in Changbai Mountain today, it is actually the Zen Master Wu Neng in front of him who is the real patron saint.
Orion's body was trembling, his legs were trembling and he was about to bend down... Bajie took an arrow step, stepped in front of Orion, stretched out his hands to help him up, and said: "Why do you give such a great gift?"
When Orion heard Zen Master Wu Neng's question, he paused for a moment... He thought to himself: Why did I give such a great gift... Do you really not know?
When Orion was about to explain, he heard Zen Master Wu Neng continue to say, "In fact, you don't have to be so afraid at all. The poor monk is not an evil monk or a murderer..."
Huang Xiuer on the side listened and murmured in her heart, you may not know that the way you acted just now would make even a demon shudder.
In the Changbai Mountains, the restriction on hunters entering the mountains for hunting was relaxed. Firstly, after the mountains had recuperated in the previous year, the number of wild animals in the mountains was quite abundant.
It is no longer enough to rely solely on the natural species in the Changbai Mountains to maintain ecological balance through the food chain...especially rabbits, which have extremely strong reproductive capabilities, and have almost become a disaster in the Changbai Mountains.
A large part of the reason is that the wolves in Snow Wolf Valley... were almost wiped out by the five great immortal families taking this opportunity.
In addition, although these three tribes like tigers, leopards and bears are better than the wolf tribe, they all suffer heavy casualties... But to a certain extent, the food pressure on these carnivorous beasts has also been reduced a lot.
In the past, there were more wolves and less meat in the Changbai Mountains, but now... they often don't even need to take the initiative to hunt, the hunters will come to their homes on their own.
But their reproduction and growth speed is relatively slower... When the demand is less than the supply, Changbai Mountain at this time is actually the most nourishing time for them.
The purpose of opening up the Orions to the mountains is to improve the ecological environment of Changbai Mountain, which has gradually become deformed... and it is difficult to make an effective impact just by self-regulation of the Changbai Mountain ecosystem.
Ordinarily, it is taboo for hunters to roast their killed prey on the spot in the Changbai Mountains, because the aroma... often attracts carnivorous beasts.
Bajie didn't know why the hunter in front of him did this, but what really made Bajie change his face was not just this...it was actually the roasted rabbit in front of him.
Huang Xiu'er is quite keen. She quickly noticed that Bajie's attention was actually mostly scattered on this whole roasted rabbit, so she took the initiative to pick up the rabbit from the ground...
At this time, the hunter began to explain to Zen Master Wu Neng, "Master, forgive me, the villain realizes his mistake... But the villain really did not mean to eat this hare... but because he has been in the mountains for five days, what kind of prey does the villain have?
I didn't catch any, so I thought of walking into the mountains. Unexpectedly, once I entered the mountains, I lost my direction and path..."
"The villain only brought one day's rations. Even if he saved his food, he could barely survive for two days... On the third day, he could only eat wild fruits and vegetables to satisfy his hunger... Today is the day when I am extremely hungry and thirsty.
At that moment, the rabbit suddenly hit the tree stump next to the little man and died..."
Huang Xiuer was not surprised by this. Rabbits were often killed by hitting their heads against trees in Changbai Mountain.
Huang Xiuer was used to it, but the little hunter in front of him was obviously a novice... I'm afraid he had never seen such a scene before, so he continued to say to Zen Master Wuneng, "The villain thinks this is a gift from God because he feels pity for the villain.
...So, therefore...I couldn't help it, so I baked it with gratitude."
"But Zen Master... please don't misunderstand me. I haven't eaten a bite of this rabbit." Orion pointed at the rabbit and motioned to Zen Master Wu Neng to look at it.
Bajie also took a serious look. In fact, he had already discovered this when he first came here... The hunter held the rabbit in front of him, closed his eyes tightly, and muttered something, saying thank you to heaven.
if.
After hearing the sound of them coming, I opened my eyes and saw that it was me coming, and I was so frightened that I dropped the rabbit in my hand to the ground.
Although he didn't have time to eat, he really hadn't taken his mouth yet.
"It's a good thing you didn't eat." Bajie took out some water from his storage bag and brought it to him first. "I've been hungry for three or four days and eat meat as soon as I open my mouth... Be careful to put your
My life was lost in Changbai Mountain."
"Ah?" Orion was obviously stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously asked, "Will you die if you eat meat?"
Huang Xiuer answered this question for Bajie, "Of course you won't eat dead people if you eat meat, it will just mess up your stomach..."
Although Orion is a novice, he is not a fool, and he is also somewhat spiritual... After listening to Huang Xiuer's words, he roughly understood what it meant. In a place like Changbai Mountain, if he roasted the rabbit first, the aroma would most likely be transferred to him.
Attracted by ferocious beasts in the mountains.
With my own abilities, I might be able to deal with one or at most two tigers and leopards... If I attract too many ferocious beasts, and if I suffer from gastrointestinal disorders, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Drink some rice porridge first to let your stomach recover."
Bajie took out a small pot from the Qiankun bag and started to cook porridge using the other party's fire rack.
At this time, Bajie motioned to Huang Xiuer to hand over the roasted whole rabbit.
It has to be said that this fledgling little hunter is not only incompetent in hunting, but his cooking skills are also really average... Anyway, he was fed by Bajie and made him cunning. It is no longer an ordinary food, and he can eat it.
mouth.
The little hunter just didn't know what Huang Xiuer was thinking, otherwise he would definitely argue with his reasoning, "It's not that I haven't learned much about hunting, but that after entering the Changbai Mountains, I can always perfectly avoid the location of the prey."
But at this moment, the eyes of Little Orion and Huang Xiuer were all focused on Zen Master Wu Neng. They didn't know why Zen Master Wu Neng cared so much about a roasted whole rabbit.
