To the west of Kunxu is a vast area intertwined with grassland and Gobi.
Under the blue sky, with prayer flags and flags lined up, there are monks in a neat square formation, holding long sticks, performing martial arts. Amidst the humming and haha sounds, the stick postures are obvious. Although it is majestic, there is a kind of something that Buddhist practitioners should not
Some of the murderous intent diluted the solemnity of the monks.
These are the monks and soldiers of the Buddhist kingdom, and they are the basis for Manjusri's march into Kyushu. After all, the teaching of the Dharma ultimately relies on fists, not words.
A few months ago, during the severe winter of last year, when the weather was cold and freezing, monks and soldiers from the Buddhist Kingdom had already been stationed here. They survived the severe winter with the physique of practitioners. And the peaceful days gradually wore away in the confrontation with the climate.
The character he brings is more powerful enough to go on the battlefield.
The monks performed martial arts, and their vitality and blood were so strong that they actually dispersed the cold air here and brought a billowing warmth.
If we change the world, and replace the area near Kunxu with any place in Kyushu, the combined energy and blood inspired by the monks and soldiers will be like the blazing sun, steaming up and down in all directions.
"Very good."
On the Dharma altar surrounded by eight stone pillars, Manjusri looked at the martial arts performance and couldn't help but praise him, saying: "The believers in our Buddhist country already have a heart of piety and devotion to the Buddha, and their minds are firm. Now that they have been tempered, they will no longer be able to do so."
More elite than any other in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Also on the altar were a middle-aged Taoist priest with a long beard and two similarly dressed female Bodhisattvas in white.
The one with solemn treasures and compassion is the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva of the Buddhist Kingdom; the other is pure, empty and bright, with a peaceful temperament, and is the newly promoted third grade of the Buddhist Kingdom - Wusheng Laomu Tan Wuwei.
Except for the Enlightened Ones, all the three levels of Buddhism are gathered here.
"Friends of the Inanimate Buddha still have the foresight. Last year, I proposed that Buddhist disciples come here for training. It is truly a blessing for the Buddha country to have friends of the Inanimate Buddha." Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva also agreed with a smile.
"Don't dare to take credit for things that are part of your job." Tan Wuwei nodded slightly and replied.
She is now the fourth most powerful figure in the Buddhist Kingdom, and her prospects are even greater than those of Manjushri and Avalokitesvara.
Maitreya is the future Buddha. Even if the great Bodhisattva left behind is a third-grade Bodhisattva, it can still be said that the future is promising. However, Tan Wuwei did not become arrogant because of this. On the contrary, he was very responsible and placed himself between Manjushri and Avalokitesvara.
under people.
This made the two great Bodhisattvas very satisfied. Although at their level, they would not have their emotions disturbed by some attitude issues, but the principle of not hitting the smiling person makes sense everywhere. Can someone
Smiling at you is better than shaking your face.
And the attitude is not important, the intention expressed is important. Tan Wuwei shows that he has no intention of opposing the two of them, which is a good thing.
Therefore, the atmosphere among the three third-level Buddhists in the Buddhist Kingdom is harmonious at this time, and it can be said that they are enjoying themselves.
Then someone interrupted.
"It's a pity. If the Enlightenment is willing to support, the Great Zhou Dynasty can be settled." Shen Hou stroked his long beard with a look of regret. "With the prestige of the Enlightenment, even if he can't take action, he can still use the power of the Buddha to conquer the east. It's a pity that he
Not willing to support. Also, who is called the Awakened One..."
"Marquis Shen!" Manjusri called out in a deep voice, "Don't tell lies."
All Bodhisattvas must make great aspirations to spread Buddhism widely. This is not only to promote the spread of Buddhism, but also to help one's own practice. It is also a kind of restriction. Among the top leaders of the Buddhist kingdom, they all make great aspirations and are bound by them.
, only the awakened one does not.
Therefore, he does not need to support it.
But can such words that are not conducive to unity be uttered?
"The Awakened One does not leave seclusion, and the Tathagata does not emerge from the world. In order to deal with Karma Tathagata, the leader tries his best to avoid taking action or even interfering." Avalokitesvara said in a calm tone.
"Really?"
However, Marquis Shen did not seem to give up and said with a chuckle: "As a poor Taoist, I know that Karma Tathagata came out of nowhere. Everyone in the Buddhist country was curious about its origin. After careful search, I found a book written by Karma Tathagata in a Buddhist temple.
"Mara Sword Code". The sword code is written on the Jiuru Kasaya. As far as Pindao knows, this cassock can only be worn by a few people in the Buddhist Kingdom. It is mostly seen on the first disciples and the first disciples. Therefore, in the Buddhist Kingdom
Everyone here doubts that Karma Tathagata is actually a disciple secretly accepted by the Enlightened One."
"This speculation is not groundless. The Awakened One has been famous for many years. He reached the third level of perfection more than a hundred years ago, but he only accepted two disciples nearly twenty years ago."
He has been famous for hundreds of years and reached the third level of perfection a hundred years ago. In theory, it is not impossible to recruit disciples.
Although there is no rule that only the first and first disciples can wear the Jiuru cassock, in the Buddhist kingdom, generally speaking, young people who can wear the Jiuru cassock are definitely the first disciples. Because the rest of the people who are qualified to wear it are basically old guys.
After the "Mara Sword Manual" was found, those monks who were qualified to wear Jiuru Kasayas all proved to themselves that it was most likely not leaked from their hands.
It is precisely for this reason that some people in the Buddhist Kingdom would speculate like this.
It's just that no matter what kind of guess they are, they will never say it outright like Shen Hou.
"People from the Buddhist country worship the first one. I am not considered a Buddhist country yet, so to be fair, I can provide some clues."
Marquis Shen still kept talking and continued: "As far as Pindao knows, Wuzhishan, which originally suppressed the demon god cult Ho Luo God's true body, disappeared out of thin air after He Luo God was born and Jiang Li cut off his body, as if it had never existed.
generally······"
Before he finished speaking, Shen Hou shut up because the meaning had already been reached.
When the Wuzhi Mountain appeared, the Buddha's aura was pure and holy. Only the Enlightened One in the world could have such Buddha Aura, and it can basically be determined to be the work of the Awakened One. The Wuzhi Mountain disappears out of thin air, and the "Mara Sword Code" uses the illusion to become reality.
The weirdness also matches.
So, you can guess the relationship between the Awakened One and Karma Tathagata.
"Marquis Shen, be careful what you say."
Manjusri's voice became even deeper, "If it is what you want, you, a person who has not set any ambitious goals, will be even more untrustworthy."
Along with the deep words, there was also a majestic momentum, which made Marquis Shen laugh quickly and said: "I am a poor Taoist who talks too much. He talks too much."
The originally harmonious atmosphere was completely lost because of Marquis Shen's words, and the scene became a little awkward for a moment.
Who doesn't know that Marquis Shen was brought back by Manjusri, and now that Manjusri has received the help of the Jiang family, he seems to have become the dominant family in the Buddhist kingdom. This Marquis Shen is probably Manjusri's mouthpiece.
Manjusri is determined to be at the top of the list.
Guanshiyin and Tan Wuwei were both thoughtful people, and they were very clear about the relationship between the two. Therefore, they did not respond directly when they heard the words, but remained silent. This made the atmosphere seem silent.
Fortunately, at this moment, a chill broke the somewhat stiff scene.
The cold current suddenly surged across the sky and the earth. Thick dark clouds came with the wind, and countless hail fell in an instant. The warm current brought by the boiling blood was swept away in an instant, and even a monk came in a short time.
The inner limbs fell stiffly.
??????55.??????
It has already entered spring. Although there is still spring cold, and it is located to the west of Kunxu, it can be regarded as freezing cold, but it is definitely not as severe as winter. The Buddhist monks and soldiers even withstood that severe cold, and now they are in this cold
Fell down in the cold snap.
Even the people on the altar felt a chill that penetrated their muscles and bones. Marquis Shen even shuddered. The dragons and tigers under the altar all ran up and huddled behind Marquis Shen.
"Something that doesn't live up to expectations."
Marquis Shen laughed and cursed, stretched out his hand, and an ancient wooden whip appeared in his hand, with talismans lighting up on the whip's body, rejecting all the coldness.
Manjusri, Avalokitesvara, and Tan Wuwei all have the same energy at the same time. Three rays of Buddha's light, one is flawless, one is solemn and compassionate, and the other is pure and empty, reach up to the sky, and sweep away the thick ice clouds.
Revealing the clear sky.
The Buddha's aura manifests, each showing a vision, Manjushri, the Great Merciful and Compassionate Avalokitesvara, and the Vacuum Hometown, all evolving, like turning the Qiong Yu into the Pure Land of the Buddha.
However, although the ice clouds were swept away and the hail was eliminated, the surrounding coldness became more and more severe. In a short period of time, it seemed as if the severe winter had returned, and it continued to fall. In an instant, the Buddha's light shrouded the world.
The land and the rest of the land are already covered with flying snow and frost covering the ground.
"The magical power of the winter god," Manjusri looked at the changes in the surrounding scenery, the light circle behind his head flashed with the light of wisdom, and deduced the source of the cold, "Flying snow has fallen in the land three thousand miles away, it's the Fairy Queen!"
The aura of wisdom behind her head also revealed itself at this time. On a snowy peak, the Fairy Queen in white clothes danced with black hair. Countless frost currents appeared out of thin air under her gaze, rushing towards the west in a mighty manner.
As if aware of Manjusri's prying eyes, the Fairy Queen slowly turned her head. With her cold, crystal-like eyes, a faint trace of frost appeared on the halo of wisdom.
"The Immortal Queen..." Tan Wuwei saw this scene and whispered, "She can't hold it anymore. Yesterday, news came that Dinghu Tianxuan was promoted to the third rank two days ago.
Later, I was worried that as time goes by, Tianxuan will become more and more powerful and want to complete the promotion ceremony as soon as possible."
Although I don’t know the specific details of the cooperation between the Fairy Queen and Tianxuan, they are inseparable from the promotion. The key conflict between the two of them is also based on the promotion.
Therefore, Tan Wuwei can naturally guess what the Fairy Queen is thinking.
She wanted to force the Buddhist kingdom to march into Kyushu.
The Fairy Queen's ability to reverse the climate relies on the magic power of Dao Fruit. The consumption itself is not large, and she can also take advantage of the trend. When this place is frozen for three feet, the Fairy Queen's consumption will be even smaller.
If the third-level Buddhists want to protect their subordinates, they will have to consume more. If they want to consume the Fairy Queen until she is exhausted, even if all three of them are exhausted, it will not work.
So it is absolutely impossible to consume it dry.
Then there are only three choices, one is to wait, one is to attack, and the other is to retreat to the Buddha Kingdom.
With the strength of the three of them, if they took the initiative to attack, even the Fairy Queen would have to avoid his edge. But in this way, they undoubtedly took advantage of the Fairy Queen's will and broke the stalemate.
"This Fairy Queen is not afraid of us attacking the Fairy Palace at all." Tan Wuwei shook his head.
"The Immortal Palace has profound foundations, and there are two second-grade Taoist weapons. If it could be broken so easily, Senior Brother Guangcheng would have done it long ago," Shen Hou reminded from the side, "Moreover, the Immortal Queen may not give up her promotion because of this.
"
Even if the Immortal Palace is destroyed, the Immortal Queen can still retreat, not to mention Manjusri and the others may not be able to break through the Immortal Palace.
At the beginning, Manjusri could block the door of Yuxu Temple by himself, but he may not be able to break the door of Yuxu Temple by himself. The same principle also applies to the Immortal Palace. If the door is broken so easily, it will not be the Buddha's turn.
They may not even be willing to try.
Even if it succeeds, it will consume a lot of time and energy on the Immortal Palace. By then, let alone other parties, Yuxu Temple alone will be happy to death.
Manjusri narrowed his eyes slightly, "The promotion of Dinghu Tianxuan makes the Fairy Queen unable to hold back? Or..."
A rebellious figure of a certain family flashed through his mind, but he immediately denied it in his heart.
'Absolutely impossible!'
With a decisive meaning in his heart, Manjusri asked the other two third-level people: "Two Buddhist friends, what do you think?"
"We have agreed in advance that the first step will be made by the inanimate Buddha friends, so we will follow the wishes of the inanimate Buddha friends." Avalokitesvara immediately abstained.
As for Tan Wuwei, he pondered for a while and said decisively: "One hair can move the whole body. If the Fairy Queen moves, then we should stop if we don't stop, otherwise we will be disturbed by it. It's time to move. At least for the moment, the Fairy Queen moves.
They won’t stop us, and the two people in Yuxu Temple who see the Immortal Queen won’t stop them, so they definitely need to separate one of them to guard against the Immortal Queen.”
In this way, the resistance that may have originally existed has been reduced from three to one.
If that's the case, let's go ahead.
Tan Wuwei dared to betray the Momen and join the Buddhist kingdom, and was promoted all the way to the third level. Tan Wuwei's determination and courage were extraordinary, and he immediately made up his mind. The Tao carried by Manjusri is known as a great wisdom, and he figured it out immediately.
"good."
He nodded in agreement, "It is not a good idea to stay. Returning is impossible, so then go ahead."
As he spoke, the Buddha's light blazed brightly and turned into a golden wheel, swaying layer after layer of cold currents, causing brilliance to soar into the sky and lotus flowers to the west of Kunxu.
The Buddhist Kingdom has also moved.
······
······
When the Buddha Kingdom marches, the Buddha's light soars into the sky, and that dazzling brilliance can also be seen from East Kunlun.
There is no need for anyone to send a message. The Guangcheng Taoist priest in Yuxu Temple will know what is going on in the Buddhist country when he sees the Buddha's light.
"It finally moved. Pindao's bones were really stiff from waiting."
Taoist Dragon Slayer's figure flashed up and came to Guangcheng's side. Looking at the Buddha's light, a dangerous smile appeared on his small face, "Senior Brother Shenhou, I miss you so much."
In the past, the senior brother betrayed the sect, and the closer the relationship with Marquis Shen became, the angrier he became. Obviously, Yin Tulong is a typical representative in this regard.
Just by looking at his expression, Taoist Guangcheng knew what kind of intense scene there would be when the two met.
'I hope that nothing will happen to Marquis Shen.'
With this thought in his mind, Taoist Guangcheng used his parallel fingers to form a sword light, sent a trace of spiritual thought into it, waved his hand and shot it towards the east, "Go."
The light of the sword was so fast that it was almost near beam. It was exactly the Yin and Yang sword of Taoist Guangcheng. In an instant, thousands of mountains and rivers passed by, and the speed was so fast that even the five turbid evil energies had no time to corrode it.
And when it passed over Ding Lake, a hand reached out unexpectedly and grabbed the sword of near light.
"I'll take it."
The time before and after was just a blink, and Jiang Li, who was far away in Dinghu, had already received the news.
