"Not on this shore, not on the other shore, not in the middle... If you have a mind, you are there, if you don't have a mind, you are everywhere. Return to its original nature, that is, there is no opposite, and it is inclusive and unified."
Zhenru layman pointed out the meaning of Jiang Li's words and sighed: "The donor has a good Buddha nature, but it is a pity that he does not want to enter my Buddhist door."
The so-called Tathagata is as it is, and what is important is to see the true nature of oneself. If Jiang Li reaches the end of his words, he may not be unable to reach the highest state of Buddhist cultivation.
Although he did not fully accept the Dharma Eye of Zhenru, he also understood the profound Buddhist principles from it. For such a person, Zhenru wanted to give him a stick, knock him out directly, and make him become a Buddha.
"What a pity." Zhenru layman said with great regret.
'I'm sorry too.'
Jiang Li looked at the three things on the stone table with regret.
He went against his childhood ideals and could no longer become the Monkey King.
These three Tao fruits are inconsistent with the Tao that Jiang Li followed. The four monkeys in the world do not enter the world, humans, gods and ghosts, and they are not counted as feathers and feathers. Their Tao fruits belong to the category of monsters and monsters, and may also be related to monsters.
If there is some relationship between attributes, Fighting and Defeating Buddha is 100% Buddha. No matter how you calculate it, it has nothing to do with Jiang Li's way of human and god.
If he chooses to be the Monkey King, those who have been promoted in the past will also lose their power due to changing paths, and it is equivalent to giving up the Flame Emperor Dao Fruit.
How could the Tao Fruit, which represents the ancestor of humanity, be accommodated by non-human beings?
Not to mention there are pitfalls in the golden hoop.
Therefore, this childhood concept can only be reluctantly given up.
‘It’s such a pity, I happen to be short of the fourth grade Dao Fruit.’ Jiang Li sighed inwardly.
The third and second grades have already been obtained. If nothing goes wrong, he should be promoted to the Flame Emperor Dao Fruit. If something unexpected happens, he is still far away from the third grade, so there is no rush.
Only these four grades are the grades that will be promoted next, and since Jiang Li is now in an increasingly dangerous situation, the first thing to consider when choosing Dao Fruit is combat power. Like the Monkey King, who dominates with combat power
Tao Fruit, that is really the best choice.
Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with Jiang Li.
My heart was in ups and downs for a while, but soon I regained my composure.
Incompatibility means no destiny. Since there is no destiny, no matter how much you regret it, it is useless. It is better to focus on your feet and take the current path.
Jiang Li stood up and saluted: "This is Jiang's favor as a layman. If there is an assignment in the future, Jiang will try his best to help."
Although Zhenru, the layman, wanted to leave Jiang and become a monk, he did not engage in forced buying and selling, nor would he just say, "The donor is destined to be a Buddhist," and just grab someone with a sack. Even, Zhenru, the layman
He also gave Jiang Li a big gift. This favor must be recognized after all.
Jiang Li dare not say that the spring will repay him, but if he has the ability in the future, he will definitely try his best to help.
"The deceiver will accept the favor."
Zhenru layman was not pretentious, he accepted the favor calmly, and then said: "The benefactor's Zhuangzi Dao Fruit is still in the hands of the deceiver, and I can still borrow it from the deceiver for three years. After three years, the donor should also have the strength to bear the Dao Fruit."
, at that time, the lost person will return this fruit with both hands."
Three years!
Jiang Li's heart moved.
According to the promotion speed, after three years, it will be at least the fourth level. Only then can it bear the Zhuangzi Dao Fruit. Then the grade of this Dao Fruit will probably be the third level.
I don’t know what the real layman is doing with this Tao and Fruit. His Buddha-like Tao and Fruit should be incompatible with Zhuangzi’s Tao and Fruit. Even if it exists in the form of a Taoist utensil, it is difficult to exert its power.
However, since Master Zhenru was willing to give it, Jiang Li was naturally not polite and agreed immediately, then said "please" and left the stone pavilion.
The familiar aura of decay and decay swept over him again, but when it touched his body, he was isolated from it. Jiang Li was completely unaffected by the evil aura of the five turbidities, and in a few steps, he disappeared into the black mist.
In the stone pavilion, Huineng watched Jiang Li go away, his lips squirmed slightly, and finally couldn't help but said: "Buddhist country needs such talents, why..."
"A melon that is twisted by force is not sweet, let alone, it may not be able to be twisted."
Zhenru layman said calmly, glanced in the direction of Wushan, and a starry sky-like spectacle flashed in his eyes, "One person can inherit the karma of the three clans, so long as he can accept it. If he cannot accept it, there is no need to force it."
After all, there is a strong person from the Feng family on Wushan Mountain.
Despite the intense fighting over there now, if you really want to take action, the Great Master can still take action.
After all, Ji Jiji's incarnation has been destroyed. Now it is not Ji Jiji who is dragging the Great Master, but the Great Master dragging Ji Jiji.
Having said this, Master Zhenru paused, then looked at the three objects on the stone table, "Let's go and find a new owner for this golden hoop. In three years, at most, the obsessed person will be promoted."
"At that time, the fans will fight Li Boyang again, and regardless of success or failure, the Buddhist country will be cleansed. We still need to take precautions and find backbone people to shoulder the important tasks."
"Is there anyone else?" Huineng was a little curious.
Those who can carry this fruit are not just ordinary people. I thought that Jiang Li was the only candidate, but I didn't expect that there were alternatives.
"Of course there is."
Zhenru layman put his hand on the long golden cudgel, "I came here this time because the golden cudgel has a sense."
The long stick with an unattractive appearance was glowing with a golden light that flickered on and off at the moment. The stick's body showed traces of dragon and phoenix seals, as well as patterns of stars.
At this time, the golden cudgel finally showed its extraordinary appearance.
"Good at listening to sounds, able to discern, know the front and back, all things are clear, and the mind is one and the same. It can even be called the two minds of the practitioner. Compared with Jiang Don, this person is actually more closely related to this path and fruit. Fit.”
Just like the layman named him without hesitation: "Six-eared macaque."
After the words fell, Zhenru layman waved his hand gently, and the stone pavilion gradually disappeared, and the two people in the pavilion disappeared.
······
······
'Disappeared.'
In the midst of the five turbid and evil odors, Jiang Li stopped and said, "You can still move freely within the five turbid and evil odors. Is this the magical power of the Taoist Fruit, or is it some kind of secret method?"
'Also, this is really like the Buddhist Dharma of a layman...'
Jiang Li carefully sensed the endlessly rotating, Tai Chi-like form in the sea of consciousness. At the same time, with a thought, a pure land-like shadow emerged.
'It is so consistent with the Demon Sword Code.'
Although he had only accepted the teachings and had not yet fully integrated them and integrated all kinds of understandings, Jiang Li could already detect that the method of the Demonic Sword Code was quite consistent with the Buddhist practice of Zhenru layman, as if they were from the same source.
The Demonic Sword Code is quite similar to Zhuang Zhou Daoguo's [Extrapsychic Materialization] magical power, and is often used by Jiang Li.
After the three-party contact, Jiang Li discovered that the method taught by Zhenru layman was consistent with what he had learned, and was also connected with the Tao and Fruit.
