King Peacock Ming, one of the eight demon gods of the demon clan, was a quasi-sage and attained Taoism in ancient times.
Peacock Ming King's common name is Kong Xuan, and he is given the title of "Ming King" of Buddhism, but he is not under the jurisdiction of Buddhism. Especially after the death of Amitabha Buddha and Bodhi Buddha, his relationship with Buddhism has become extremely cold. Since the Middle Ages, Buddhism has never had any relationship with Buddhism.
connect.
"Senior brother! Since the end of the Medieval War, we have had no contact with King Peacock Ming. I am afraid that the other party will refuse this invitation."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said very objectively.
When Kong Xuan was granted the title of 'Peacock King', it was because he was surrendered by Amitabha, and here we have to mention that this matter originated from the Tathagata.
In ancient times, Tathagata traveled around the world, looking for opportunities to advance to the realm of quasi-sages. When he arrived at Hezhou, Xiniu, he was attacked by a peacock and swallowed his belly. Unfortunately, the opponent underestimated Tathagata's strength, and Tathagata burst out of his belly, and saw this monster.
He was cruel and wanted to eliminate harm for the people, but his opponent's flying skills were rare in the world and he escaped.
The matter should have been revealed at this point, but never thought that the peacock would attract reinforcements and seek revenge. The helper he sought was Kong Xuan, and the one who devoured Tathagata was his sister Kong Ling.
Tathagata was able to defeat Kong Ling, but could not defeat Kong Xuan, who was already a Daluo Jinxian at that time. He was beaten and fled in embarrassment, and finally had no choice but to seek help from his master.
Amitabha arrived in time to help and subdued Kong Xuan and Kong Ling. After learning the cause and effect, he felt grateful for the Tathagata's predestined relationship with their siblings, so he canonized Kong Xuan as the 'Peacock King' and Kong Ling as the 'Peacock Buddha Mother', which symbolizes the Tathagata.
When he breaks out of his body, he should be his son.
The Tathagata had no objections to the Master's arrangements. However, Kong Xuan and Kong Ling were willing to live under others, but they had no choice but to find Amitabha. Later, they found the golden-winged roc, the ancestor of birds at that time, to come to their rescue.
The golden-winged roc is the ancestor of birds in ancient times and cultivated in the holy realm.
Although Kong Xuan and Kong Ling are not of the same race, they are of the same genus, and the peacock clan plays an important role among birds. They fought with Amitabha. In the end, the golden-winged roc lost, but Amitabha also knew that the bird clan was not easy to mess with.
, so they took a step back, and Kong Xuan and Kong Ling could listen to the tune rather than Xuan. This way they could resolve their grudges, but Tathagata also completely recognized their relatives.
"Brother, I have my own thoughts on this matter, but now I need your opinions. Are you willing to go to my uncle and his family for help?"
Peacock Buddha is his mother, and Peacock King Ming is his maternal uncle.
The Tathagata seeks help from King Peacock Ming. At best, he is asking for support from his uncle's family. At worst, he is inviting the demon clan to involve the human race in fighting among themselves. This can easily cause public outrage, which is why the Tathagata values everyone's opinions.
If the ally agrees, then the enemy can treat it as normal regardless of how they slander it. If the ally does not agree, if he forcibly involves the demon clan, it is very likely that the public outrage will turn into a public enemy.
This is a double-edged sword.
Yun Zhongzi remained silent and seemed not to hear.
Tang Huang looked hesitant and frowned.
Emperor Ming closed his eyes and meditated, shook his head, and seemed to have not heard what the Tathagata said.
Seeing this, the Tathagata sighed in his heart, knowing that the three of them did not agree with his idea, but they were unwilling to tell him out of sympathy.
"Senior brother! This move is not impossible."
When facing the outside world, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva must stand on the same front as the Tathagata and continued: "With our current strength, it is very difficult to defeat the alliance headed by the Human Religion, but if we can invite the Peacock King to help, we can definitely
To reverse the situation, but in order to prevent it from being easy to invite gods but difficult to give away, you can make a one-shot deal, for example, invite the other party to specifically suppress a certain force, and then send them away after reversing the situation."
"You mean hiring?"
Emperor Tang looked at Yun Zhongzi and Emperor Ming and said.
"That's right! With huge profits, we can choose one of the forces to suppress and eliminate them, thereby reversing the disadvantage. As long as the other party does not stay in Dongsheng Shenzhou for a long time and has no foundation, they will have to leave even if they don't want to."
The path of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.
Emperor Ming and Yun Zhongzi looked at each other, this was indeed a compromise.
"feasible!"
Ming Huangdao.
Yun Zhongzi nodded but did not speak.
Seeing that the three agreed, Tathagata felt very happy and nodded to his junior sister with satisfaction.
"Since the three agree, the poor monk will go to Xiniu Hezhou to discuss cooperation."
"This matter should be done sooner rather than later. The leader can go there immediately."
Yun Zhongzi finally spoke and said: "There is nothing else to do here, so I will leave first."
"I'll take my leave soon!"
Emperor Ming and Emperor Tang also wanted to leave, without stopping them and seeing each other off in person.
After sending the three people away, the Tathagata asked Avalokitesvara to continue taking care of the matters being taught. Then he stepped on the lotus platform and hurried away towards Xiniu Hezhou.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva looked at the Tathagata traveling far away with complicated eyes.
Xiniu Hezhou and Dongsheng Shenzhou are extremely far apart. There is also Zhongtu Tianzhou in the middle. The distance is millions of miles.
When talking about the Heavenly Continent of Middle-earth, it is necessary to mention it.
The Middle-earth Continent is located in the center of the prehistoric world. It was once the largest and most prosperous continent. This place was originally ruled by the Demon Clan and the Witch Clan. However, after the war between the two tribes, the Middle-earth Continent suffered serious damage, and the "First Continent" was reduced to
For a desolate wasteland.
With Tathagata's cultivation, it only took one day to arrive at Xiniu Hezhou and find the training place of King Peacock Ming.
King Peacock Ming practiced in Jinji Ridge of Sanshanguan. In ancient times, he was already a Daluo Jinxian. Now, after so many years, he has already entered the realm of quasi-sage. Even the Tathagata does not dare to underestimate his strength. This is what the Tathagata seeks.
One of the important reasons for helping.
"The Tathagata is visiting King Ming, and please ask King Ming to see you!"
When the Tathagata comes here to ask for help, he naturally speaks politely. Under normal circumstances, he would not use the word "visit".
"Tathagata! If you don't enjoy the blessings of your thunderous sound in the western sky, why do you come to this king?"
A voice sounded, somewhat distant and unexpected.
"The poor monk has something to ask for help from King Ming, and hopes that King Ming will come out of the mountain."
Tathagata said politely.
"Haha! It's such a rare thing. Will you be able to ask me for help one day? Let's see what happens."
As soon as he finished speaking, five-colored rays of light flew out from somewhere in the ridge and arrived in front of the Tathagata in an instant.
The person who came here is tall and well-proportioned, has an extraordinary horse, and is proud of nature.
"Tell me, why do you want uncle to help me?"
The words of King Peacock Ming meant to ridicule Tathagata, and Tathagata just pretended not to hear it.
At that time, Tathagata burst out of the belly of his sister Kong Ling and almost killed Kong Ling. Kong Xuan had always held a grudge against this. This was the fundamental reason why the two parties were not familiar with each other even though they were recognized as relatives.
The Tathagata carefully considered his words and described the current situation, without concealing anything.
Kong Xuan laughed heartily after hearing this.
"How interesting! You actually let us demon ancestors intervene in the internal fighting of your human race, so you are not afraid of being criticized by thousands of people?"
"For the future prosperity and development of the human race, if I don't enter the region, who will go to hell?"
Tathagata said with a compassionate look.
When Kong Xuan saw this, a sneer appeared on his lips.
"I can help you, but I need to give one of the nine realms to my king, otherwise there is no need to discuss it."
