Chapter 66 Who dares to insult me ??in the beginning?
Chang'an City is the capital of the Tang Dynasty in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Thirty-six lanes of flowers and willows, seventy-two orchestra buildings, three states of flowers, and eight rivers flowing around the city. As the capital of a great country with prosperous humanity, the prosperity and grandeur of Chang'an City need not be described in detail.
It is said that Guanshiyin Bodhisattva received the instructions of the Tathagata, visited good people in Chang'an City to collect scriptures, and found a young monk named Jiang Liu'er. He used his magical power to calculate the causes and consequences, and immediately knew that this monk was the Buddha born in bliss.
Son, a seeker of scriptures in this world!
After finding the Buddhist scripture seeker, the Bodhisattva no longer delayed, and directly appeared in the true form of the Bodhisattva. Riding on auspicious clouds and dragging a pure vase of willow trees in his hand, he soared straight into the sky.
The arrival of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva naturally shocked everyone in the world. Even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty walked out of the palace, guarded by the Imperial Guards, and looked at the figure of the Bodhisattva high in the sky.
"May I ask who Shangxian is from and why he came to our land of the Tang Dynasty?"
Although the realm of the Tang Dynasty is a human realm, it is, after all, the realm of immortals. As the emperor of the Tang Empire, it is not uncommon for immortals to practice Taoism. Therefore, when Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva appeared, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was not surprised. He looked very
It's calm.
"The poor monk comes from Lingshan Mountain and is the seat of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva under the Buddha's seat. I accidentally traveled here today and realized that the paths cultivated here are all small paths. They cannot save the dead from ascending to heaven and eliminate sins and injustices. I have the Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism, which can save me from suffering and longevity.
The body is in good condition."
After Guanshiyin Bodhisattva finished speaking, the Buddha's light filled the sky, and then he sat upright on the auspicious clouds without saying a word, waiting for the human emperor below who was overjoyed to ask her for the true scripture.
However, the Human Emperor's reaction was beyond her expectation, but she saw that the other person just nodded thoughtfully, and then shook his head indifferently, "Oh, it turns out that he is here to preach again!"
Huh? Another missionary?
Guanshiyin Bodhisattva was a little confused by the Human Emperor. Could it be that before her, there were other monks who came to the Tang Dynasty to preach?
If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was used to seeing all kinds of Taoism, Dharma, Immortals and Gods, and no longer had the awe and yearning for Buddhism, how would the plan of traveling to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures proceed?
"The Bodhisattva comes from Lingshan. You must not know it yet. Our land in the Tang Dynasty respects heaven and earth and is protected by the land of the emperor and queen. It is a rare place of peace and tranquility. The royal family even enshrines some true immortals and Mahayana Buddhists. There is no need to
Not again!"
An accident occurred in the first step of fetching scriptures. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva didn't know what the problem was. This was different from what she expected when all the people knelt down and worshiped, and the Emperor longed for Mahayana Buddhism. After being manipulated by the Emperor like this, she felt that the plan to fetch scriptures had failed.
About to get screwed!
"Your Majesty does not know that there are superior and inferior immortals and Buddhas in the world. The immortals enshrined by your Majesty may not be the real immortals. I wonder if your majesty can invite the royal family to come out to discuss the Dharma and Tao with the poor monks.
Which one is better, the Immortal Dharma, or the Buddhist Dharma?"
"Well, it's better to compare!"
The Human Emperor did not object to this suggestion, but whispered to the officials beside him, saying: "Go to the worship hall and invite the Immortal Chief out!"
But the official looked troubled and whispered: "Your Majesty, you also know that the immortal is a true immortal. He usually does not interfere in state affairs and concentrates on practicing Taoism. Isn't it too abrupt to invite him out of seclusion so rashly?"
?”
"It doesn't matter, you tell the Immortal Chief that a Buddhist Bodhisattva has arrived and that the way he practices is a small way. You want to discuss the Tao with him and see whose way is the real Great Way!" Human Emperor
He said with a smile on his face.
Although his voice was small, he could not hide it from the Guanshiyin Bodhisattva. After hearing the words of the Human Emperor, the Bodhisattva's face suddenly became a little complicated.
How could this human emperor have such weird thoughts? With this sentence, he set up a rift for Buddhism. No matter whether he could win the next argument, he would offend the royal person to death first.
"Who dares to insult my Taichu Dharma?"
Just when Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was thinking about how to proceed in the next discussion, a golden avenue of light suddenly rushed towards him in the void, and in the golden light that filled the sky, a clear and sweet voice sounded, but there was a chill in the voice.
The sullenness in the air of frost is self-evident.
The Bodhisattva turned his head and looked around, and saw a road paved with golden lotuses running through the eastern sky. In the golden lotus avenue, there was a beautiful girl wearing a light yellow dress, naked with jade feet, and carrying a
Even she felt the pressure of fear as she strolled over.
"Who is my Tao? It turns out to be Guanyin Bodhisattva. Although the Bodhisattva's Dharma is profound, it would be a bit too much to disparage my Taichu Dharma as a small way!?"
The girl in yellow came out of the air, and as soon as she steadied herself, she opened her mouth to attack.
Seeing the person coming, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva's expression became extremely exciting, with a look of disbelief on his face.
The girl is, this name is not famous in the Three Realms, but almost all the powerful people in the Three Realms know that there is an old friend and confidant under the Taichu Patriarch, Emperor Gouchen, whose words and deeds are almost
It represents the will of Emperor Chen!
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva originally thought that the so-called royal worshiper was just some casual cultivator who was greedy for power in the world. Who would have thought that the person he selected for the competition turned out to be such a piece of iron.
The spokesperson of Emperor Gouchen is definitely not inferior to himself, the great disciple of the Buddha.
In the first step of the Journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, Emperor Gouchen got himself into big trouble. Could it be that the Heavenly Court was going to renege on its word and prevent the Journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures from continuing?
"What does the donor mean by this? Is it what Emperor Chen means?"
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva did not answer the question, but asked directly.
She had to find out whether Emperor Gouchen wanted to stop the Westward Journey plan from proceeding. If it was the emperor's intention, then she, a Bodhisattva, could not get involved in the matter. The Buddha had to come forward and communicate directly with the Emperor of Heaven.
"The Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty is a place directly under the Emperor's control, and the founding of the Tang Dynasty was also approved by the Emperor!"
He said coldly: "Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have been ordered by the emperor to serve as a royal minister here to protect the Tang Empire from evil spirits... But you, fellow Taoist, have come here to preach, have you ever received the favor of the emperor?
permission?”
Hearing this, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva was slightly relieved. In this way, it was not that Emperor Gou Chen deliberately blocked the plan to travel to the West. It seemed that the girl in front of him did not know the cause and effect between heaven and Buddhism. Regarding the plan to travel to the West,
, I guess I don’t know much about it either.
"Whether you have the permission of the emperor or not, the benefactor will know as soon as he asks. Why should you question the poor monk?"
We had just started taking the first step to learn the scriptures, but we encountered a lot of obstacles. Although Guanshiyin Bodhisattva had a good temper, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, and his voice was a bit cold.
