As the monastery of the Yuqing Sage, Kunlun Mountain naturally does not have positions such as mountain gate guards that are only needed for those who are powerful and capable. Just the inadvertent exposure of the aura is enough to make those with spiritual wisdom retreat on their own.
But at this moment, an uninvited guest came uninvited and tried to climb the Qilin Cliff.
The visitor was wearing a moon-white Taoist robe, a crown and a belt, and a handsome and kind appearance. He had a whisk in his left hand and a bottle in his right hand. He bowed his head in the direction of Yuxu Palace on the top of Qilin Cliff and said:
"Infinite Buddha, if the saint doesn't mind, I will climb this Qilin Cliff Plank Road."
The so-called plank road is actually the entrance test of Chanjiao. Anyone who can climb to the top can enter the Chanjiao gate wall. Those who don't want to join Chanjiao will not come to the saint's door to cause trouble.
But if someone really refuses to join Chanjiao after being approached, and Yuanshi Tianzun still treats him or her as if there is nothing they can do, Chanjiao will undoubtedly be disgraced.
Therefore, this Taoist's behavior may appear to be polite, but in fact it is provocative.
So, almost as soon as the Taoist finished speaking, the space next to him "cracked" a dark gap, and a young general with silver armor and a silver gun walked out of it, and directly answered:
"Of course I mind."
"Oh? Taoist friend Yun Zhongzi, I have troubled you to welcome him, but I am frightened in my heart." Taoist Zhunti turned to Yun Zhongzi and bowed again.
"Your Excellency, there is no need to test. I have indeed entered the gate of Chanjiao - as an outer disciple." Yun Zhongzi turned sideways to avoid this courtesy.
When a saint gives a gift, only a fellow saint can accept it calmly. If someone below the saint stands with his arms akimbo, nodding, and receives the gift, this difference in status can easily cause the recipient to lose his life or be struck by lightning in the worst case.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, it is like a human being whose children are bowed down by their parents.
Since this kind of thing belongs to the concept of "all things are divided into three, six or nine grades" of Chanjiao, then the thunder that strikes people will most likely be the "Jade Pure Divine Thunder", so the saint can actually use this trick to trick people - if he doesn't care about face.
.
Therefore, when the West taught this half-step sage to perform this ritual, they either thought that Yun Zhongzi was the same person as him, or they were trying to trick him, so of course Yun Zhongzi would not accept it.
"Oh... the outer door... so to speak..." Taoist Zhunti failed to salute and didn't care. Instead, he put on a thoughtful expression.
"Those who can stop you at this time should not come, but those who can come can't stop you. It's really a good idea." Yun Zhongzi did not want to talk to him too much, and used his silver spear to open a crack again, through which another person could be seen.
Looking at the magnificent Yuxu Palace: "If you want to visit the master, please do so."
"This magical power, fellow Taoist, is really interesting. Could it be possible to directly open a 'channel' to reach the 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss' of my Western religion?" Zhunti took a look at the strange crack and immediately stepped in.
"If you haven't arrived before, you can't go there." Yun Zhongzi responded calmly and followed him in.
"You haven't arrived yet, so you can't go there?" Zhunti crossed the gap and arrived at the main entrance square of Yuxu Palace. But he was still chanting Yun Zhongzi's words, and suddenly turned to him and smiled: "It turns out that fellow Taoist Yun Zhongzi is also quite intelligent.
man of."
Yun Zhongzi was closing the crack. When he heard this, he just raised his eyebrows slightly and did not respond.
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist Zhunti, you don't need to try to 'conquer' Yun Zhongzi. He has a strong mind and a clear purpose. Even the headmaster of Yuanshi can only accept him as an outer disciple who can come and go freely."
Following the bold voice, the light of the lantern behind him was dazzling, and like a bright sun, the Ran Deng Taoist walked slowly from the direction of Yuxu Palace.
————
"Fellow Taoist Ran Deng, I don't know..." Taoist Zhunti tried to speak.
"Headmaster Yuanshi will not see you. He said that you are exploring your own 'Tao' at this time, so you cannot meet directly with other saints who have 'Tao' but are not saints through merit." Taoist Ran Deng waved his hand to stop him.
He spoke.
"I've seen Deputy Headmaster Ran Deng, you..." Yun Zhongzi clasped his fists and saluted Taoist Ran Deng, as if he was planning to say something.
"The matter in the human world is not urgent," Ran Deng waved his hand again to stop Yun Zhongzi: "Master Yuanshi wants you to go to Yuquan Peak immediately to bring Huang Long, Yu Ding and Yang Jian back to Yuxu Palace. If you take one step slower, then
The two reckless Golden Immortals will probably be beaten up by their apprentices."
"...Accept the order." Yun Zhongzi was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left without asking any more questions.
"Randeng Taoist friend, you..." Taoist Zhunti said again.
"Headmaster Yuanshi asked me to ask you, 'Are you happy bullying my disciples who are not smart enough to teach?'" Ran Deng interrupted Zhunti again and asked: "First Jade Cauldron, then Huanglong, do you want to follow Chi Jing next time?"
"
"This time Pindao is indeed following Master Huanglong's passage back to heaven, but where does the jade tripod come from?" Zhunti narrowed his eyes and responded.
"Headmaster Yuanshi said that when Master Yuding returned to heaven, before the passage behind him was closed, there was a [Fighting Victory Buddha] passing through. Do you want to say that that was not your Western Buddha?" Ran Deng took a step forward:
"And the method is exactly the same as when you just came with Huang Long. What else can you say?"
"Is there such a Buddha?" Zhunti looked quite surprised.
"There are also two [Golden Body Arhats]. Don't think that if you take them back after the test, others won't be able to discover them. After all, you are not a saint yet and you don't know the authority of a saint." Taoist Ran Deng concluded: "Now, you can talk about it.
I understand your purpose of coming, if it is an ordinary question, Master Yuanshi has already planned a reply, and Pindao can take the initiative to respond."
"I just wanted to say what I wanted to say - Fellow Taoist Ran Deng, could you dim the lantern behind you a little?" Taoist Zhunti covered his eyes with one hand and pointed at the back of Ran Deng's head with one hand.
"Huh? Oh!" Ran Deng suddenly realized it, and turned to play with the lamp: "No wonder all the nephews are hiding from me today - so what are you going to say?"
"The poor Western religion wants to cooperate with the Chanjiao." As the light dimmed slightly, Zhunti opened his eyes slightly: "The Chanjiao teaches that all things are born with three, six or nine levels, and the teachings of our Western religion are 'cultivation.
In the next life, there is no conflict between the two, or in other words, they are very suitable for cooperation."
"Prince Yuanshi has already replied to your intention," Ran Deng adjusted the brightness of the lantern and said to Zhun: "What Western religions say is 'Accumulate virtue in this life and enjoy blessings in the next life', and 'Do evil in this life and you will receive bad retribution in the next life'.
It is formed by substituting the concept of the reward and punishment mechanism in the six realms of reincarnation. Nuwa's set of things may send good people to people with good conditions, but it will never make bad people directly become human again. Therefore, your Western religion will "suffer"
The doctrine of 'sin committed in previous lives' is in serious conflict with the facts, and Chanjiao will not make enemies of a new saint for this reason."
"What else are there?" Taoist Zhunti directly unfolded a volume of scriptures: "Fellow Taoist, just say, Pindao will revise all the Western teachings that may violate the teachings of the Chinese teachings."
"..." Ran Deng was speechless for a moment: "You have reached this point, what is your purpose?"
"I heard that Chanjiao only spreads doctrines, but does not attract believers," Zhunti said with a smile: "Pindao just wants to use the influence of Chanjiao on the dynasties of the human world to better spread our Western religion."
