Chapter 381: A major issue is reduced to a trivial matter and expelled from the team [Please subscribe and vote monthly]
This moment.
The entire Jiuhua Mountain fell silent, and then trembled.
From the Thirteen Temples above Jiuhua, loud and clear Buddhist sounds were heard, followed by the rhythmic sound of bells and tripods striking.
Su Chen was unmoved by this and still sat on the red lotus.
On both sides of the red lotus, there are the Zhenxian Sword and the Kaitian Divine Axe.
Although the many disciples outside the door didn't know what was going on, they were all ready to fight.
The entire ghost world trembled.
On the Huangquan Road at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain, ghosts and winds are heard.
Lord Yama of the Tenth Palace was turned away, but refused to leave. Seeing the vision of the underworld, he raised his head and looked up at the sky, where the golden clouds turned into golden pagodas.
They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
"They won't start fighting, right?"
"There is a possibility. If a fight really breaks out, what should we do?"
"Their strength is so great that we cannot provoke them. If we really fight, we can only ask them not to destroy the underworld."
"Where did Su Chen get the confidence to dare to fight against Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"
The Lords of Hell in the Tenth Palace were all a little confused.
At this time, a Taoist who looked like a heavenly master appeared. He walked out of the underworld, with a series of ghosts pulled by ropes behind him.
Seeing him, all the Yama Lords of the Tenth Palace nodded.
"Master Zhong Kui, are you also here to persuade them to put an end to their troubles?" said the Lord of Hell.
Zhong Kui shook his head and said: "How could I have such great reputation? I just passed by and saw that all the Lords of Hell from the Ten Palaces were there. I guessed your purpose and came here to persuade you to go back."
All the Yanjuns of the Tenth Palace were stunned.
The King of Hell said, "You don't persuade King Su Tian and King Ksitigarbha, but you come here to persuade us. What do you mean?"
Zhong Kui said: "Don't you know why they started fighting?"
Several people nodded one after another, and they really didn't know.
Zhong Kui continued: "I have been in the underworld all along, and happened to see something, so I came to persuade you to leave, so as not to seek death."
Lord Yan of the Tenth Palace was immediately shocked.
Zhong Kui continued: "I saw a golden Buddha's hand descending from the sky and pulling back two souls. The two souls were illuminated by the Buddha's light and their vitality was amazing. But when I looked carefully, I saw that they were the two venerable Manjushri and Samantabhadra."
hiss!
Manjusri Samantabhadra?!
Although those two people are Bodhisattvas, they actually just joined Buddhism for a relatively short period of time and missed the last time they were entrusted with the Buddhahood.
In addition, they were in the same spirit as Guanyin. Guanyin had not become a Buddha in the first place, and they were unwilling to become a Buddha, so they rejected the Buddhist temple's replacement of the Buddha Hall.
It’s not that they don’t have the strength to become Buddhas.
Their status is higher than that of many Buddhas, and their strength is at the level of Daluo Jinxian.
After all, as the direct descendants of the former saint, their strength is obvious to all. After joining Buddhism, their strength has been further improved.
Who is it that can actually cause the two sages to die, their bodies destroyed, and only their souls left?!
Zhong Kui continued: "Don't make random guesses. Later, Pindao saw King Su Tianwang descending from the sky and took out a sword. If Pindao saw it correctly, it was the Immortal Trapping Sword of the Four Swords of Killing Immortals. He slashed out with one sword.
, and wiped out the golden Buddha's hand and the two souls!"
It’s really Su Chen!
The Yama Lords of the Tenth Hall all looked at each other, dumbfounded.
At this moment I just felt my mouth was dry.
Su Chen was actually able to kill two Daluo masters, and even chased them all the way down, even beheading their souls in front of Ksitigarbha.
What he was holding in his hand turned out to be the legendary Zhenxian Sword, which was a top-quality innate spiritual treasure!
It can be used as an absolute killer weapon to suppress the sect's orthodoxy!
It is rumored that it was obtained by the real person Jade Cauldron from Jinxia Cave in Yuquan Mountain. How did it fall into the hands of Su Chen?!
Some of them didn't understand why, but they understood one thing, that is, Su Chen killed two Buddhist sects, and his feud with Buddhism would never end.
Ksitigarbha will not let Su Chen go. Su Chen is very powerful and will not sit still and wait for death. No one among them can persuade him.
When the time came, I was rejected and slapped in the face, but I couldn’t even get down the stairs!
Zhong Kui did not say any more, but Lord Yan of the Tenth Palace had already decided to leave immediately.
It's terrible.
This level of fighting is not something they can persuade.
Inside Huacheng Temple.
The Listening Divine Beast lay beside Ksitigarbha, its eyes narrowed, but its ears were constantly listening to Su Chen's heartbeat and breathing.
It seemed that he was judging Su Chen's condition.
But Su Chen was too terrifying, and he was always vigilant. The sword and the God's ax sounded in unison, and the red lotus also emitted bursts of light, as if there were countless thunders roaring.
Even the listening beasts dare not listen carefully for fear that their ears will be damaged.
At the same time, I was surprised, how could Su Chen have such a powerful momentum? He didn't look like a Daluo Jinxian at all!
Of course, he had never tried to truly listen to the state of a peak player before.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "Amitabha, King Sutian, you said they deserve to die, but why do they deserve to die?"
Su Chen said: "Damn it, damn it, why are there so many?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "They are Buddhist sages who have performed countless meritorious deeds to protect the people of the three realms. They have made outstanding contributions to defeating evil cults, subduing demons, and restoring peace to the world. Now you say you deserve to be killed.
Just kill people, it doesn’t make sense, right?!”
Su Chen sneered and said, "I thought you, Ksitigarbha, were a reasonable person, but you are increasingly talking nonsense."
"The nonsense and self-righteousness of Buddhism are probably all learned from those of you who claim to be ancient Buddhas. How many people abide by the rules and precepts you have established?!"
“I’m afraid I’m not asking others to comply, but I don’t need to comply?!”
Listening to Su Chen's sarcasm, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was not angry and said: "There is indeed a place where filth and people gather and practice in Buddhism. This is why Buddhism has been working hard. It is to eliminate filth and people and people's evil and truly practice Western culture.
Pure Land of Heavenly Bliss."
"But these things have nothing to do with King Su Tian. After all, you are not a member of my Buddhist sect. But now you have killed two great sages of my Buddhist sect. As far as the world is concerned, you have killed two great bodhisattvas with immeasurable merit.
"Publicly speaking, you killed two Buddhist monks at Hualong Temple in Yunyuan Mountain; privately speaking, you killed two old friends of a poor monk."
Although Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has a high status, he is actually very approachable and has always been on an equal footing with many juniors in Buddhism.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva continued: "Amitabha, you said, for these reasons, shouldn't you give an explanation?!"
Su Chen looked at him, and the two looked at each other for a moment.
Su Chen said: "I don't believe that your Listening Beast doesn't know what is happening in Jia Kingdom."
The listening beast drooped its eyelids once, and then continued to close its eyes and fall asleep.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "Although the Listening Divine Beast can listen to all things, every sound from every corner of the Three Realms can fall into his ears. However, he does not always listen to other people's communication."
"First of all, his spirit doesn't allow it, secondly, he doesn't have that much thought, and then he doesn't have that much energy."
Su Chen said: "So, he has not heard about the situation in Jia State?"
The listening beast finally spoke, saying: "I really didn't hear anything."
Su Chen chuckled, he didn't believe it.
If he really didn't listen, how could Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva immediately take action to rescue Manjushri and Samantabhadra when something happened to them?
It's so accurate, how could it be possible if I hadn't been prepared in advance!
but.
Listening to the divine beasts have already said this, which is equivalent to giving them a step, so Su Chen stepped down.
He did not want to fight directly with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Firstly, he was not sure of victory. Secondly, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had a much higher status than Manjushri and Samantabhadra.
If you move him, you will really move the entire Buddhism. By then, he will be in the realm of gods and humans. If the Buddhist saint does not come out, even if the Tathagata comes face to face, he may not be able to keep him.
But he also has a big business, with a person from Yunyuan Mountain Hualong Temple to support, and the entire Tang Dynasty as the foundation behind him.
Just leaving like this is tantamount to giving up everything you have worked so hard for.
Su Chen was not happy.
After all, he relied on his reputation to get rapid promotions by asking people to come to him for interpretation. If he stayed anonymous or hid in XZ, his efficiency would definitely be greatly reduced.
The gain outweighs the loss.
What's more, Su Chen's goal from the beginning was Manjushri Samantabhadra, and by killing them, he would have accomplished his set goal.
Anything else is considered an extraneous issue.
Therefore, he said: "Then I have misunderstood you. Well, in that case, let me tell you that Manjusri and Samantabhadra were misbehaving in the country of Jia. They were slanderous and arrogant, and framed me!"
Anyway, those two people are dead, and the listening beast said that he didn't hear anything about Jia Guo's situation.
So that's what he said.
Even if the listening beast really heard something, he would admit that he didn't hear it. That would be a mute eating coptis.
As expected.
The listening beast frowned, feeling aggrieved.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva looked as usual and said: "The poor monk still knows what they are like. They are able to sacrifice their own moral character for the common people in the three realms. They will never act recklessly, let alone do anything harmful to nature."
He would not let Su Chen say whatever he said. He would judge others by himself. He would definitely recognize the character of Manjushri and Samantabhadra, so that everything Su Chen said was worthy of question.
Su Chen said: "However, the fact is that they did do things that were outrageous and outrageous. As for why, I don't know."
Then Su Chen elaborated on the matter. In short, he told how Manjusri and Samantabhadra tortured Ao Lie and framed him.
Listening Divine Beast was very uncomfortable being around. He knew that Su Chen was adding fuel to the fire, but he had always said that he had not overheard the situation, so he could not refute.
But one thing was that he really didn't hear anything about Su Chen from Ao Lie.
Ao Lie was caught, and he didn't say a single thing about Su Chen. As for being tricked by Manjushri Samantabhadra, it was because the two of them had the ability to enter dreams.
After entering Ao Lie's dream, Ao Lie was completely unprepared and explained the matter.
But it was also explained in a dream, so no matter how powerful the mythical beast is, it cannot hear it.
However, he knew Manjusri and Samantabhadra very well, and they would never make false accusations easily. They must have known something to do this.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "King Su Tian, since you said that Manjushri and Samantabhadra framed you, why do you think they framed you?"
Su Chen said: "I don't know the specific reason. I have no enmity or enmity with them, and I am even kind to them. Doing this is really unbelievable and puzzling!"
Nowadays, Su Chen has reached the realm of heaven and man, and every word he speaks is protected by heaven and earth. Even if he lies, he can listen to the divine beasts face to face and still not be able to tell the truth.
Therefore, the listening beast was confused at this time, and he could not tell whether Su Chen was lying.
Usually if there is an abnormality, he can judge that he is lying, but Su Chen's abnormality seemed to have become normal, and the normal seemed to have become abnormal.
In other words, Su Chen's whole body was full of weirdness.
The Listening Divine Beast and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made eye contact, and they both understood each other's thoughts without using any words.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva also seemed a little surprised. He didn't expect that the listening beast couldn't tell the truth about Su Chen.
This is strange.
Because of all things in the world, even if Tathagata lies in front of the listening beast, he will be heard.
However, Su Chen was able to avoid it.
This is not simple.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva didn't know what to do for a while, because he had no conclusive evidence. Ao Lie said that Su Chen participated in the Journey to the West.
but.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva believed in Manjushri and Samantabhadra because they had no personal grudges against Su Chen and even openly received favors from Su Chen.
If it were not for the interests of justice and Buddhism, there would be no need for them to break up with Su Chen, or even risk their lives in the end.
What could have caused all this was that Manjushri and Samantabhadra determined that Su Chen was definitely involved.
There is no evidence that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva also believes in Manjushri Samantabhadra.
From some of the things that Di Ting Divine Beast listened to before, it can be judged that Su Chen should have contacted Ao Lie in advance and gave Ao Lie guidance, which made Ao Lie rebellious and resisted Buddhism.
For this reason, Ao Lie not only did not join the Buddhist sect, he may have even joined the Su Chen sect.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva thought for a while and said: "King Su Tian, it seems that this will be an unresolved case."
"Actually, it was very clear that Manjushri and Samantabhadra wanted to frame me. Moreover, they humiliated me and even wanted to kill me. I just passively killed them."
Su Chen still insisted on his own rhetoric.
Anyway, the King of Heaven is here, and he said the same thing.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "However, they have no reason to do this. And they still do it, there must be a reason. We cannot believe your words. Of course, we cannot rule out that they have been deceived."
Su Chen said: "Yes, I am kind to them, and they should not do anything to me. Maybe they were deceived by others, or they misunderstood me because they believed other people's words."
At this time, Su Chen immediately hit the snake and followed it with a stick.
Anyway, he has already killed someone, so it would be best if the two people could be eliminated as the reason for killing him.
Don't let Buddhism hold on to you when the time comes.
But now the two of them are burdened with the burden of taking someone else's word for granted, or being deceived by others and doing whatever they want.
Instead, Su Chen became the victim.
Instead, Buddhism wants to compensate him.
Of course, it is basically impossible to ask Buddhism to compensate him, but it can make Buddhism dare not touch him openly.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "King Su Tian, look, wouldn't it be nice to explain the matter clearly at the beginning?"
"We almost had a misunderstanding."
Su Chen nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, yes, what the Bodhisattva said makes sense, but I was almost killed by them. Although they believed others and may have been deceived, I almost got into trouble after all, and they didn't let me do it."
Buddhism has compensated, but I just ask Buddhism to restrain its disciples."
Then he got up and left.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "There are many good and bad Buddhist disciples, and I, the Buddhist disciples, will discipline them in the future. I am really sorry for having a bad influence on King Su Tian."
"However, King Su Tianwang was too ruthless. If only one of their souls were left alive, maybe we could still be friends. Now that both body and soul are destroyed, I, the Buddhist sect, really don't know how to face King Su Tian."
Su Chen said: "I have been forced to do my best to eradicate evil. It is true that I also have some problems. That's it. Let's make it even."
"Okay, if there are no other questions, then I'll take my leave now!"
Then he will leave.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "King Su Tian is leaving now? I have heard that King Su Tian has dominated ten generations and is extremely talented. I still want to discuss Buddhism with King Su Tian."
Su Chen said: "We'll talk about it later, we'll talk about it later."
He didn't want to stay too long. Otherwise, if someone from Buddhism came, he wouldn't even have a chance to leave.
So, get up and leave.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva followed Su Chen out of Huacheng Temple and watched him leave in the clouds and mist.
Many disciples and disciples looked at each other, not knowing why.
But seeing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's dull expression, he had no choice but to leave in annoyance.
The entrance of Huacheng Temple.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not look back for a long time.
Listening to the beast said: "Bodhisattva, I can't tell whether Su Chen is lying, but Manjushri and Samantabhadra will not tell nonsense. Since they believe that Ao Lie is related to Su Chen, they must be related."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "I know."
Listening to the beast said: "In this case, Su Chen must have interfered in the journey to the west, and even colluded with Ao Lie to destroy our great cause of learning Buddhist scriptures."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "What then?"
Listening to the mythical beast: "Then take him down."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "Because he interfered in the journey to the West? Not just suspicion, but there is solid evidence, so what?!"
The sacred beast was stunned for a moment.
He couldn't refute it.
really.
So what if there is evidence? What if there is no evidence?!
The catastrophe of Journey to the West is a catastrophe in the Three Realms, and everyone can participate in it. If Buddhism wants to profit from it, it only reaches an agreement with certain big bosses.
Many people owed favors to Western religions during the Conferring War, so they wanted to repay the favors. In addition, Buddhism promised not to participate in the fight for the status of saints.
Therefore.
Many people turn a blind eye to this.
However, this does not mean that the Catastrophe of Journey to the West is really forbidden by Buddhism.
There are always people who are dissatisfied.
Many monsters are unconvinced and want to interfere. Of course, they are very weak and will become pawns in Buddhism's plan to travel to the west.
Su Chen is very strong. If he wants to participate, Buddhism has no qualifications or position to allow it.
Listening to the mythical beast for a moment, I didn't know what to do.
He hesitated and said: "But, but, it doesn't matter if he participates in the catastrophe of Journey to the West, but if he destroys the great cause of Buddhist scriptures in the West, does this interfere with my Buddhism?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "In the final analysis, seeking scriptures from the Western Heaven is just a way for powerful people from all walks of life to give face to Buddhism. In the past, Su Chen was nothing, and no one took him seriously. But now, everyone in the world has
Come on, who dares to despise him?!"
"A reputation that has dominated ten generations, coupled with a reputation that split the Qinwang Peak, and has a good relationship with Lishan Mother, Donghua Emperor, and the Antarctic Immortal, is enough to make the world dare not despise him."
He sighed and said: "Back in Chang'an, he tried his best to suppress our Buddhist sect, but no one ever took him seriously. Now that he has become a phenomenon, our Buddhist sect can hardly move forward in Chang'an."
Listen carefully to the mythical beast that wants to speak but stops.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "Only Xuanzang can bring Mahayana Buddhism back to Chang'an and suppress it with the great cause and effect of seeking scriptures from the Western Heaven, and can the world be turned around."
Listening to the mythical beast: "Can't we take action against him?"
"Although he is powerful, he is not alone. He has many disciples and many lay people. We..."
"Um?!"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva glanced at the Listening Divine Beast and was so frightened that he did not dare to speak any more.
"I am a Buddhist cultivator. If you have such dangerous thoughts next time, I will let you go to the eighteenth level of hell."
Listen carefully to the mythical beasts and dare not even speak.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not say a word, but he was thinking in his heart, "It's not just Su Chen who has a big family and a big business. Buddhism has a bigger family and a bigger business than him."
He ordered: "Let's put aside the matter of Manjusri and Samantabhadra for the time being. I will compile a copy of the book and you can send it to Lingshan so that they will not pursue this matter anymore. Also, Ao Lie can no longer stay in the group of Buddhist scriptures."
"
Talk about both ends.
Su Chen has returned to Jia State.
His fight with Manjushri Samantabhadra attracted the attention of many people, but few people dared to pry into it.
And even though the matter was big, the people involved inside and outside the city didn't know about it.
therefore.
After Su Chen came back, he continued to be a warlock and interpret people's fortunes as if nothing had happened.
Anyway, the test for the disciples has arrived.
About three days passed.
Sun Wukong came back. He rescued Xuanzang and Sha Seng, found Ao Lie, and came to Su Chen's house.
Sun Wukong yelled and scolded: "You sorcerer, you didn't expect that my old grandson is here again, did you?"
Su Chen said: "I thought of it, but I didn't expect you to come so late."
Sun Wukong was very angry, "You slandered me at first, and now I want to seek justice for myself."
Su Chen said: "Everyone thinks it was you, including these two monks. Instead of dealing with them, you came to deal with me. What's the point?"
Sun Wukong, who was coming in a fierce manner, was stunned when he heard these words and didn't know how to refute.
Xuanzang still had some nice words to say because he was saved by Sun Wukong, but when he heard that Sun Wukong was still holding on to what happened in the past.
They even went on a killing spree.
He became angry and said: "Sun Dasheng, let's stop this matter. You have killed enough people. I really don't want to see you killing innocent people anymore."
Sun Wukong said angrily: "Monk, I saved you, but you don't believe me?"
Xuanzang said: "The facts are before our eyes. You robbed the old ladies of their food and killed them. You also killed everyone who came to take you."
"You even want to kill us. Isn't this a fact?"
Sun Wukong was so angry that he died.
"You monk are so stupid that you can't see that there are weird things everywhere in the country of Jia? You all have magic powers and you were caught and hanged for several days. Don't you doubt it?"
"Don't you doubt that this man is capable of calculating and facing death without fear?"
Su Chen said: "I have saved countless people, but I have already taken life and death lightly. Sun Wukong, if you are not convinced, then kill us."
He and Bai Suzhen behind him stood forward, and many people around them pointed at Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong is not polite, he will do it when he picks up the golden cudgel.
Xuanzang was angry, "That's enough!"
He said angrily: "Sun Wukong, I don't need you to protect me in my journey to the west. From today on, you are no longer my partner in my journey to the west. Just go back to where you came from!"
Sun Wukong couldn't believe it, "You blindly forced me to leave, and I came all the way back to save you. Now, you want to drive me away?!"
Xuanzang said: "Yes, you go!"
He also pointed at Ao Lie and said: "There is still you, you should go too."
Ao Lie was stunned, "Why?"
Xuanzang said: "The poor monk received a dream from the Buddha. You often feed on people, and the poor monk cannot tolerate you."
Ao Lie was angry, "Nonsense, I have never eaten anyone."
Xuanzang said: "I believe in Buddha but not you."
Ao Lie was furious, "Okay, okay, if it weren't for us, let's see how you get to the West!"
Xuanzang said: "You don't need to be pretentious. Wu Jing, let's go, take the customs clearance document, and go to find the canopy. We will go to the Western Heaven by ourselves!"
Watching Xuanzang and Wujing leave, Sun Wukong and Ao Lie were furious, and then looked at the warlocks Su Chen and Bai Suzhen.
Bad eyes!
"It's all your fault for ruining the good things I've been waiting for!"
