Lord Tathagata Buddha showed up to meet Emperor Ming, Emperor Tang, and the head of the Chan School, and expressed his deep regret for not being able to welcome them from afar.
The reason why we were unable to welcome him in person was actually because the Tathagata was learning about the current situation of the Pure Lotus Buddha Realm from Luo Jing's mouth and making some preparations for a rainy day. Since we decided to visit the Pure Lotus Buddha Realm, we naturally had to make all preparations.
, a meritorious service.
He only has one chance.
"The leader is welcome!"
"The leader is interested!"
"We are allies, not outsiders. There is no need to be like this."
When Emperor Ming, Emperor Tang and Yun Zhongzi saw Tathagata coming, they stood up and smiled politely.
Lord Tathagata Buddha ranks second in terms of combat power among the human race. In this world where strength is respected, although the status of the three of them is equal, the gap in strength is destined to be high and low.
"I don't know what the important thing is for the leader to urgently call the three of us here. Let's talk about it and don't try to hide it."
The speaker was an old man in his sixties, with a crescent moon face, a garlic nose, and a head that covered the earth and the sky. He looked really ugly, but he was the founder of the Nanming Empire, the founding emperor Zhu Hong, a quasi-sage of the Four Tribulations, who had been the founder of the Nanming Empire since ancient times.
He is famous all over the world. Because he was born in a demon sect, he is ruthless and decisive in his actions and straightforward in his words.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Huang and Yun Zhongzi also cast their gazes on Tathagata.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty looked middle-aged and was very heroic, and Yun Zhongzi was also handsome. When the three of them were together, Zhu Hong was obviously far inferior to the two of them, both in appearance and demeanor.
The Tathagata sat down at the main seat, and knowing Emperor Ming's temper, he said directly: "I have rashly invited three people to come this time. In fact, there is something that requires the help of three people. Without the help of three people, there is no chance of success with a poor monk alone."
"Three of you should understand the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'. Since the death of the two disciples of the poor monk, this realm has been cut off from the sect. And today, the disciples of the Qinglian Sect came from the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'.
Asking for help."
"Help?!"
"What's wrong with the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'?"
"……………………"
When Minghuang and the other three heard this, they looked curious and solemn.
The 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm' has the accumulated resources of Buddhism. If Tathagata can get them back, I am afraid that Buddhism will become the largest religion in the human race within a few years.
Although the four parties have formed an alliance and united the front, they are not of the same mind. Mahayana Buddhism is the dominant one, which is definitely not what the three of them want to see.
After all, just one Tathagata has already made them fearful.
If Mahayana Buddhism takes back the Pure Lotus Buddha Realm, I am afraid that the alliance will undergo subtle changes.
The four of them are all mature experts. With just one glance, Tathagata saw through the minds of the three emperors and continued: "I am not afraid of the jokes of the three of them. There is now internal strife in the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'. If not,
If we try to stop it, I'm afraid there will be serious internal strife. This is something I don't want to see. It's just that going to the Pure Lotus Buddha Realm is not easy.
When the monk leaves, many people will notice it and have evil intentions. Therefore, by inviting the three of them here, they hope to help the poor monk and prevent the unscrupulous people from intervening in the internal affairs of the sect. After the matter is completed, the resources within the community will be available.
The poor monk is willing to give 60% of the reward to the three of them, and he should also share the blessings and hardships as he said when forming an alliance."
The three emperors of Ming Dynasty knew who the enemy mentioned by Tathagata was. When they heard that each family could get 20% of the treasure of "Pure Lotus Buddha Realm", they were very shocked.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that Tathagata's move is not as good as it sounds on the surface. Without the help of the three people, he will never have the chance to take back the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'. Although he paid a huge price, it is better than just looking at it.
of meaning.
"It doesn't matter what the reward is. As the leader said, since we form an alliance, we are one family. If one family does not speak the same language as the other, there is no reason not to help."
Emperor Ming said carelessly, Emperor Tang and Yun Zhongzi also nodded in agreement.
"The leader said this out of context."
"You and I have been friends for many years, there is no need for this."
The Tathagata was overjoyed when he saw the three people agreeing. With the help of these three people, this trip to the Pure Lotus Buddha Realm will be a success.

Pure Lotus Buddha Realm.
Dragon's Cave Secret Realm.
Li Zhen was preparing to capture the master of Ming Jing'an, and wanted to take the opportunity to meet Yun Linglong.
After Li Zhen entered the Five Elements Small World, Yun Linglong was decorating the courtyard.
"You are pregnant now, so don't worry about it."
Li Zhen advised.
Hearing this, Yun Linglong shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Isn't this such a small thing a lot of work? My husband thinks that I am too fragile."
The layout near the Bamboo House has now been greatly changed. It is more beautiful and more like a paradise, which makes people feel comfortable physically and mentally. This shows that Yun Linglong has not been idle since she came here.
Li Zhen is also concerned but confused. After all, this is their first child, so it is impossible not to be nervous.
"Why are you suddenly thinking of coming to see me? Things outside have been taken care of?"
Yun Linglong asked casually.
Li Zhen briefly explained what happened after she came in. When Yun Linglong learned that Li Zhen was going to deal with the master of Mingjing'an, she disagreed and said: "I think it is far more beneficial to deal with the master of Mingjing'an than to take down Luo Jing.
"
"How do you say this?"
Li Zhen asked.
"The Four Arhats surrender. The master of Mingjing Temple is a turtle in the urn in the secret territory of Dragon Cave. He can be trapped here. You leave here to deal with Luo Jing. With the help of the Four Arhats and the magic weapons on your body, we can capture Luo Jing."
It's not too difficult, but as long as Luo Jing is captured and the master of Mingjing Temple is trapped in the dragon's lair, won't we get the 'Pure Lotus Buddha Realm'?"
Yun Linglong explained.
When Li Zhen heard this, his eyes lit up. Yun Linglong's idea could capture the 'Jinglian Buddha Realm' faster, but it would be safer to capture the master of Mingjing Temple first, and then deal with Luo Jing. Both have their own pros and cons, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior.
.
"Your idea is indeed a good one, but now that you have started taking action, you cannot make any changes."
Li Zhen said: "It seems that I still need to seek your advice for any future actions."
Li Zhen's words were not a compliment, but he really valued Yun Linglong's opinion.
What a blessing it is to have a wife like this!
Li Zhen had a brief exchange with Yun Linglong and then left. At this time, the Four Arhats had already joined the master of Ming Jing'an.
The master of Mingjing Temple acted alone and achieved nothing, which not only made him deeply disappointed.
At that time, Lord Tathagata Buddha once said that this place contained great treasures, but it turned out to be extremely desolate. This contrast is indeed difficult for people to accept.
"Junior brother Luo Ming disappeared before, but what danger did he encounter?"
Seeing that Luo Ming was not injured, Ming Jing'an was suspicious. If he was not in danger, how could he lose contact?
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister. Junior Brother accidentally broke into a cave. There is a psychedelic array inside. Junior Brother was hit and could not escape. He was not able to escape until Senior Brother and others rescued him."
Luo Ming seems to be a very serious person, but his ability to tell lies is not bad at all.
Upon hearing this, the master of Mingjing Temple suddenly became energetic. Just as he was about to ask in detail, he suddenly sensed that the atmosphere was not good, and glanced at the Four Arhats with a frown.
