With the evolution of the Wonderful Sound Bird, Mahayana Buddhist disciples came to worship one after another, and the news that Xiang Que was suppressed in Lingshan spread throughout the Western Pure Land.
In just a few days, the number of people at the foot of the mountain has changed from one group to one large group, and this trend is still increasing. In a week or so, the number of people will definitely be even greater.
After all, the Western Pure Land is so big that it takes time for the news to spread, and it also takes more time for people to arrive. But it can be expected that in about ten days, the people under the lighthouse will reach a peak state.
About two-thirds of the people here are disciples of Mahayana Buddhism, and the other quarter are people who come to watch the fun and believe in Theravada Buddhism.
Xiang Que was also surprised that there were so many people who believed in Mahayana Buddha. He thought there would be many, but he didn't expect that there would actually be so many.
This all depends on the promotion and development of that old venerable man.
Moreover, the disciples of Mahayana Buddhism seem to be much more pious than expected. The disciples who came from all directions in the Pure Land of the West, after arriving at the foot of the lighthouse, all knelt down and worshiped on the ground, and then kept chanting scriptures in their mouths.
.
The sound is majestic and the sound of Buddha is lingering.
The Melodic Bird hovers in the sky, making loud and sweet sounds from time to time.
This picture looks quite majestic and vigorous.
On the auspicious clouds in the sky in the distance, the Lantern Buddha, Sunlight Bodhisattva, Moonlight Bodhisattva, Medicine Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, etc. are all watching quietly. There has been such a big commotion that the entire Lingshan Mountain has been alarmed. These Buddhas
It is impossible for Bodhisattva and Bodhisattva to come and take a look.
Two Bodhisattvas, Wenyuan and Wendao, were also among them. The former's eyes flickered a little, while the latter showed anger that was difficult to express clearly.
There are also Sunlight and Moonlight Bodhisattvas. The expressions of these two are also very complicated. They were the first to have dealings with Xiang Que. At that time, Xiang Que was still a golden immortal. Who would have thought that to this point, no matter it is
Has his influence or strength reached this point?
Wenyuan Bodhisattva's state of mind is also very complicated and tangled, because the biggest secret in his body is controlled by Xiang Que, but who would have thought that Xiang Que would still go higher and higher after the immortal world has been reincarnated.
He used to even think that if Xiang Que died, he would still be the Bodhisattva of Lingshan.
But as long as Xiang Que didn't die, he would be a thorn in the mountain.
"What instructions does the Buddha have?" Medicine Buddha suddenly asked.
Burning Deng Buddha shook his head and said: "There is no Buddha's will. Regarding this person, Tathagata Buddha does not seem to have any decision-making intention."
Sunlight Bodhisattva said with a gloomy face: "Buddha has no will, that is, we can do whatever we want, whether it is killing or beheading, he will not blame him."
Lantern Buddha said: "The disciples who believe in Mahayana Buddha are watching from the bottom of the mountain. It would be inappropriate for us to kill people at this time. This move is undoubtedly too much."
Wenyuan Bodhisattva also shook his head and said: "I agree with the opinion of Lantern Buddha. If we want to kill him, we should do it earlier and not wait until now. No matter how we deal with it at this time, it is too late. We still have to continue to kill him."
Suppress him until this person takes refuge in my Buddha."
The Goddess of Auspiciousness looked very helpless as she watched from the side. They were really in a state of being unable to get off. This person was too hot to handle. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lingshan could no longer find a better choice.
At the same time, Xiang Queye had discovered the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the distance, but he simply ignored them.
If you can't kill me, what's the point of coming here?
"Have you seen those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan? Do you think they are helpless against me at this time?" Xiang Que said, looking down at the Arhat monk below.
At this time, the expressions of the one hundred and eight Arhat monks seemed not to be good. They all looked a little pale, and their breathing was a little short. Their brows were wrinkled from time to time and then relaxed again, and their eyes were full of contemplation.
Uncertain taste.
Who in this world can endure Xiang Que’s brainwashing?
"They want to kill me but they don't dare to kill me. They want to keep me but they don't know how to do it... So, there must be some back-up plan targeting me in the future!"
Xiang Que said calmly: "Are they trying to force me to become a demon? I am originally a Buddha, but the Buddhas in the world are unwilling to tolerate me, even if I am willing to go to hell, save thousands of sinful souls and wild ghosts, and return to the world.
Even if there is peace, Lingshan is not willing to recognize me as a Buddha!"
"Then I will have to become a devil..."
Xiang Que lowered his head and said in a sonorous voice: "If I become a Buddha, I will make the world free of demons. But the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. This evil consequence will be tasted in Lingshan from now on. From now on... I will become a demon."
Already."
"If I become a demon, what will the Buddha do to me?"
"Buddha, don't!" Under the lighthouse, an Arhat monk immediately knelt down and raised his head and said, "My Buddha is compassionate and cannot be a demon. You said that all living beings can become Buddhas. Please influence all living things!"
"Shua"
"Swish, swish"
The faces of the surrounding Arhat monks were full of astonishment, and they were all dumbfounded. What the hell is this? Did you worship the wrong person?
"Plop"
"Plop..."
Immediately afterwards, several more Arhat monks got up from the ground, knelt down, and said respectfully: "My Buddha is merciful, and the Buddha cannot be a demon!"
This situation and atmosphere were very contagious. Xiang Que had already led them into the ditch before, which was just a missed opportunity for these Arhat monks to realize their enlightenment.
At this time, when the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from Lingshan came and were discussing how to restrain him, Xiang Que's words, "You are trying to force me to become a demon," immediately shook the hearts of the one hundred and eight Arhat monks.
The defense is broken.
"Buddha, don't be a demon..."
In an instant, the lamp-burning Buddha, the auspicious Goddess, the Medicine Buddha and others all looked over, and then they saw such an unbelievable and unbelievable scene.
The Arhat monks under the lighthouse all knelt down and worshiped on the ground, with anxious expressions on their faces, crying bitterly, and desperately trying to stay. Their pious expressions were particularly contagious.
Originally, the Burning Deng Buddha sent one hundred and eight Arhat monks to come under the green lantern to recite the Vajra Subduing Demon Sutra to suppress and refine Xiang Que. Who would have thought that now these Arhats have converted to him?
Is this inciting rebellion?
The burning Buddha opened his mouth and was stunned in disbelief.
Lucky Goddess: "..."
Sunlight and Moonlight Bodhisattvas asked in shock: "What happened to these Arhats?"
At the foot of the mountain, the followers of Mahayana Buddha suddenly shouted loudly: "My Buddha is compassionate, the Buddha saves all living beings, take refuge in the Buddha, and the merits of Mahayana Buddha are immeasurable!"
One hundred and eight Arhat monks said in unison: "Please, Buddha, have mercy on all living beings and don't become a demon..."
Wenyuan Bodhisattva said: "Originally, I asked him to take refuge in my Buddha. Now it's better. All the Arhats in Lingshan have taken refuge in him!"
