Lin Nuo was naturally not surprised by the monkey's answer.
After all, the system in this monkey's mind is itself the talisman and seal script that he handed over to him back then. Even the tasks he issued were given by him. The so-called evil ways cannot live as long as heaven and earth. It is strange that this monkey can agree.
"Then I will teach you the three hundred and sixty ways of the side sect, are you willing?"
"May I ask Master, what are the side sects?"
"Knowing the time of the sky, understanding changes, understanding yin and yang, and understanding magical powers, are you willing to learn them?" Lin Nuo continued to ask with a smile.
"May I ask Master, can you achieve immortality by following the other methods?" Monkey asked hurriedly.
"You can live forever and live forever!"
"Can I live as long as heaven?"
"cannot!"
"If you don't learn, don't learn!" Sun Wukong shook his head again. If he can't live as long as heaven, the task will not be completed. What's the use of learning?
Lin Nuo pretended to be angry, and his expression gradually became colder. He walked down from the high platform, raised his hand, and a black ruler fell into his hand. He pointed at Wukong and said: "You hozen, you don't learn this, what about that?"
If you don’t learn, how will you do it?”
Lin Nuo stepped forward and hit Wukong three times on the head. Lin Nuo put his hands behind his back, walked into the palace, closed the middle door, and left everyone behind, frightening everyone in the group of Taoist boys listening to the lecture.
He complained to Wukong and said: "You monkey, you are so rude. The Patriarch taught you the Taoism. Why don't you learn it and talk back to the Patriarch? This conflict has made him angry. I don't know how long it will take before I can listen to the Patriarch again!"
Sun Wukong was not upset at all, he apologized to everyone with a smile, and stared at the back of the master as he left, with a faint light shining in his eyes.
.......
In the Taichu Dojo of the East China Sea, he was sitting quietly in the main hall. At the front, Lin Nuo himself was sitting cross-legged on the high platform and suddenly opened his eyes.
"Is there any news from Jizo and Hyakunin?"
"Hundred Nin has been admitted to the position of Lord Huodexing. After all, he is a golden immortal, and he has the support of you, the big boss, so everything is going smoothly!"
He leisurely reported the news gathered in the past few years, "As for Ksitigarbha, progress is a little slower. Although he has good friends with several Buddhist Bodhisattvas, he wants to enter Lingshan, but he has never received the Buddha's permission.
.”
"Over there, what are your requirements?"
"There is indeed a request. According to the news from Ksitigarbha, Buddha's second disciple Jin Chanzi once hinted to Ksitigarbha that Buddha wanted to interview the person behind him."
Lin Nuo nodded slightly, "In this case, it's time to meet that Buddha!"
After the words fell, Lin Nuo stood up, and ripples of space spread around him. The next moment, his entire figure moved away and disappeared into the dojo.
Outside the Earth Immortal Realm, in the vast starry sky of the universe now known as the Mortal Realm, in an uninhabited and deserted location on the edge of the universe, two figures appeared one after another.
The wilderness on the edge of the universe can be called the limit of the universe. The energy of chaos lingers here and is filled with endless aura of destruction. Even the powerful Golden Immortal dare not set foot there at will. Even with the methods of heaven to monitor the three realms, it is difficult to detect
Explore here.
"The poor monk has met the benefactor. We said goodbye in a hurry back then, but today we meet again. The benefactor's supernatural powers seem to be even better than before!" The person who spoke, wearing a gray monk's robe, was the Tathagata Buddha whom he had met once before when he opened up the earthly immortal world.
At this time, the Buddha looked extremely simple. There was neither Buddha light shining down nor the chanting sounds of his followers. He looked like a gentle and kind fat monk.
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist!" Lin Nuo didn't like polite greetings. After simply nodding and returning greetings, he went straight to the topic.
"Ksitigarbha is my disciple and he is extremely talented in Buddhism. I want him to worship at Lingshan Mountain and listen to the Dharma of Dharma in the presence of fellow Taoists. I wonder if I can do it for you?"
Tathagata was also a little surprised by Lin Nuo's directness, with golden Buddha light flashing in his eyes, and then nodded slowly.
"Since the donor has spoken, the poor monk will accept him into Buddhism and treat him as a personal disciple!"
Having said this, he remained silent and stared at Lin Nuo unblinkingly.
Lin Nuo understood and knew that the other party wanted to make conditions.
"This matter is considered to be a favor of my fellow Taoist. If you have any difficulties, it's okay to say it!"
"In that case, the poor monk will tell you directly!"
Knowing that Emperor Gouchen in front of him was a straightforward person, Tathagata stopped playing riddles and said directly: "Fellow Taoists must know that back then the Emperor of Heaven promised the poor monk to choose one of the four emperors and the five elders, but
In the end, because the four imperial positions were full, the poor monk could only become one of the five elders in heaven."
"I also know about this. I guess the Emperor of Heaven must have made some promise to my fellow Taoist, right?" Lin Nuo knew in his heart that this should be the original origin of Journey to the West.
"Indeed, in order to make up for the poor monks, the Emperor of Heaven allowed my Buddhist Mahayana Buddhism to have an opportunity to preach after the establishment of the Immortal World!"
"After discussing with the Buddhas in Lingshan, the poor monks agreed that preaching is an important matter, but Mahayana Buddhism should not be spread casually, lest the world does not know the preciousness of Buddhism."
Lin Nuo opened his mouth at the right time and said, "So what Taoist fellow Taoist is saying is that instead of giving away the Dharma, why not let others ask for it to show how precious and rare the Dharma is?"
As soon as these words came out, Tathagata's expression suddenly changed, and then he clasped his hands together and said: "The Great Emperor really has great wisdom, one point can reveal it!"
Judging from Tathagata's appearance, he seemed to want to say again, "The emperor and I are destined to be Buddhists." However, after considering the status and identity of the other party, he had to suppress these words in his heart in time, otherwise if he did not do it right, he would kill the person in front of him.
excuse me.
"The poor monk has already made an initial decision as to who will seek the scriptures. As for the person who will protect the Tao, the poor monk would like to choose one of the several demon kings under the benefactor's seat. I wonder if the benefactor is willing?"
Emperor Gou Chen is in charge of the demon cultivators of the three realms. No matter which demon king is chosen as the protector, he can't surpass this emperor. If the other party doesn't nod, it is estimated that the Emperor of Heaven will be helpless in this matter.
For this reason, Tathagata was relieved for no reason when he learned that Ksitigarbha, who wanted to worship at Lingshan to practice Buddhism, was a disciple of Emperor Gouchen.
I am not afraid that the other party will ask for something, but I am afraid that this great emperor really has no desires and needs. With Ksitigarbha's relationship, the matter of traveling to the west to learn scriptures can finally be put on the agenda.
...
Here, Lin Nuo himself was discussing with Tathagata Buddha about the selection of candidates to collect scriptures and protect the Tao. On the other side, in the Sanxing Cave in Fangcun Mountain, that night, at the time of the third watch, a black shadow sneaked away from the Taoist dormitory, taking advantage of the moonlight,
We arrived at the back door of the main hall.
The back door of the main hall was only half-opened. Wukong was overjoyed when he saw this, "My guess is correct. Master really wants to teach me the true teachings of the Great Dao alone in the middle of the night!"
Entering through the back door, Sun Wukong carefully entered the main hall, until deep in the main hall, on a blue futon, he saw the master sitting on the futon.
At this time, the master was sitting with his eyes closed, seeming to be cultivating, but also seeming to be sleeping. He seemed not to have felt Wukong's arrival at all.
Seeing this, Wukong breathed a sigh of relief. The master called him here in the middle of the night, and it was indeed to teach him the truth. Otherwise, with the master's magical power, he would have sneaked here to disturb the old man's Qingxiu, and he would have probably kicked him out long ago!
