Chapter 94: The Monkey King Is Not a Buddha [2/2]
When Xuanzang was nervous and Bajie was surprised and confused, Sun Wukong suddenly appeared in front of them.
Xuanzang was naturally a mortal fetus with naked eyes. After Sun Wukong changed to his original appearance, he didn't think much about it. After a few words of concern to Sun Wukong, he started to set off again.
On the contrary, Bajie looked at Sun Wukong as if he was a ghost. He ignored Xuanzang who was leading the way, but looked at Sun Wukong in horror and asked, "You... have you broken through the Quasi-Saint?"
After hearing this, Sun Wukong pondered for a while, then nodded silently.
"..." Bajie couldn't help but lose his words when he saw this, and he didn't know how to express his complicated mood in his heart.
That is a quasi-saint! A person who is truly standing on the top of the clouds among the three realms today!
After all, for ordinary practitioners, the Hunyuan realm is too far away. For most prehistoric creatures, the quasi-saint realm is already their ultimate goal.
Just like a pyramid, among the hundreds of millions of prehistoric creatures, only a few people are destined to enter this state in the end.
Even the personal disciples of the saints are rare now that they can reach the level of quasi-saints. Among the first disciples under Li Canghai, only Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming had such a Taoist practice.
However, when he thought of this, Bajie felt even more depressed. He knew in his heart that the monkey was the closed disciple accepted by his master, but even such a junior brother ran to him at this time, which made him feel mixed emotions!
But at this moment there was another person who was more complicated than him. In Wuliang Palace, Bixiao stared at Zhao Gongming with a resentful look, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
After a while, Zhao Gongming finally gave up. He said helplessly to Bixiao: "Three sister, I was just a joke at the beginning. How could I know that Wukong's cultivation was so diligent!"
Bixiao rolled her eyes again when she heard this. When she thought that the cute little monkey in the past was already a quasi-saint powerful man, she kept her senior sister's cultivation behind her, Bixiao felt even more and more heartbreaking!
Looking at Bixiao's depressed look, Yunxiao couldn't help but smile helplessly: "It is naturally his opportunity to have Wukong's cultivation. Don't be too discouraged. As long as you practice hard in the future, you will naturally have the opportunity to reach this level!"
After hearing this, Bixiao sighed softly and said, "I'm not discouraged, I just regret that I can't take him to play next time I see the little monkey again, so I can't take him to play as before."
When Qiongxiao heard this, his eyes twitched slightly and complained: "You didn't take him to play at the beginning, you just played with him!"
However, no matter how surprised the sentient beings in the Three Realms are, after Sun Wukong attained the quasi-saint, it is really not difficult to obtain the scriptures. Anyone with some background has long regarded Xuanzang and his stance as a plague god and avoided it from afar!
As long as those little demons who have no legs still dream of reaching the sky in one step, they often find that they are seeking death when they see Sun Wukong!
So in the midst of trouble, monsters with backgrounds naturally escaped by chance. Those grassroots without backgrounds, no matter how talented and amazing, were still cut in front of Sun Wukong!
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Xuanzang and his party crossed the mountains and seas. After going through thousands of difficulties and dangers, they finally arrived at Prajna Island.
After Xuanzang took a bath and changed his clothes, he changed into a clean monk's robe. He wore a brocade robe and held a nine-ring tin staff in his hand. He walked towards Mount Maha step by step.
Looking at the Lanke Temple with five auspicious colors and auspicious mists on the top of the mountain, Xuanzang couldn't help but clasp the eleven rituals.
There is a saying that yellow and selends of golden tiles stacked mandarin ducks, and agate is laid with flower tiles on Ming gui. Xuanzang was shaking the seven treasures of Buddhism everywhere, and he couldn't help but become more and more awe of the Zen ancestral land.
At this time, the white dragon horse also turned into a human body of Taoism, and together with Bajie and Wukong followed Xuanzang into the Great Hall.
When the four of them came in, they saw that the Bodhisattvas, Venerables, Vajras and Arhats were already standing beside them.
Among them, there are three thousand Jiedi, eleven great stars, and eighteen Galans stand quietly on both sides. The World-Honored One of Kashyapa fell on the twelve grades of Pure World White Lotus and sat upright in the center.
As soon as Xuanzang entered, he worshiped the Buddha Kashyapa and fell to the ground, and then bowed three times to the Buddhas and Arhats on both sides.
After that, only Ao Bing tributed with Xuanzang, while Bajie and Wukong were just a brief combination of eleven!
After the ceremony, Xuanzang respectfully presented the pass certificate and then said respectfully: "Disciple Xuanzang, following the order of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in Dongtu, came to Lingshan to pray for the Buddhist scriptures to help all living beings. I hope that the Buddha will be kind to him and will be given a return to the country as soon as possible."
Kashyapa smiled faintly when he heard this, and said, "I have eight Zen sutras that can escape from suffering and explain disasters. Among them, there are 15,144 volumes of Buddhist scriptures. However, they are the path to cultivation and the door to righteousness and goodness.
It is really hard to remember you all the way, which shows your heart towards Buddha. Well, I will examine a few volumes of the true scriptures to you and teach you to bring you back to the East to save the world and save people!"
Xuanzang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly thanked him again.
However, Zen Buddhism now has no bad customs. After Kashyapa spoke, Venerable Nagarjuna led Xuanzang to the Sutra Pavilion to pick up scriptures.
Finally, we selected a total of 1,110 volumes of "There has never been a sutra"; 100 volumes of "Yoga Sutra"; 140 volumes of "Determination Sutra"; and 748 volumes of "Nirvana Sutra".
And nine hundred and sixteen volumes of the Great Prajna Sutra; one hundred volumes of the Diamond Sutra; two hundred and twenty volumes of the Great Peacock Sutra; and forty-five volumes of the Treasure Sutra.
When the four of them sorted out and tied up two loads, they were still carried by the little white dragon Ao Bing, thanked Kashyapa, bid farewell to the Buddhas, and went all the way down the mountain.
There is a saying that when you come, you will be in danger and in danger, and you will not have to work so hard on the way back.
There was no need for the Arhat Vajra to send him off. Sun Wukong brought a few people with just one somersault, and in a blink of an eye, Xuanzang could already see Chang'an!
By the day when Xuanzang returned, the city naturally caused a sensation. Unfortunately, the Tang Emperor Li Longji had already left the throne and now he has retreated to the deep palace and is known as the Supreme Emperor.
Since Xuanzang left, Emperor Tang became more arrogant and extravagant. He kept approaching villains and away from wise ministers. In just over a decade, an Anshi Rebellion caused, sweeping most of the Tang Dynasty into it.
After this, the reputation of Emperor Li Longji of Tang Dynasty was dispersed, he also lost his early spirit. Those rebel officials were the crown prince Li Heng and many civil servants and generals led many civil servants and generals to clean up the country. However, after this, the Tang Dynasty was greatly damaged and no longer as prosperous as before.
As the saying goes: One day the emperor is the emperor and the other day the minister.
Because Xuanzang was sent by the Supreme Emperor to go to the South China Sea to worship Buddha and pray for scriptures. Therefore, although the people in the capital came to pay homage with their elders and young children, the court seemed to have not heard of it.
The reward of 10,000 taels of gold that Xuanzang had been thinking about before was naturally gone. Although he felt a little regretful, the pursuit of the scriptures benefited Xuanzang a lot.
So regardless of the court, he translated scriptures in Kaiyuan Temple every day and preached to the people.
As for Bajie, Wukong and Ao Bing, they naturally went back to their own houses. When Xuanzang's lifespan was full of life, the merits of obtaining scriptures were finally fulfilled. So Kashyapa specially sent someone to invite Ao Bing, Bajie and Wukong to grant them the title of Buddhist fruit.
Xuanzang was naturally attained by Daluo and returned to the body of Bodhidharma. He achieved great success and was awarded the title of Sandalwood Merit Buddha.
Ao Bing was overjoyed and rushed to Prajna Island. After thinking that he was carrying Xuanzang to come south and carrying the true scriptures to return east, he was named the Eight Heavenly Dragon Guangli Bodhisattva.
After this establishment, Ao Bing had a strong job, so he thanked him so much that he was incorporated by Zen Buddhism with gratitude.
Because of this trip to obtain the scriptures, Bajie also had a lot of insights into the true Zen Dharma, so he also went to Lanke Temple. He was sealed with a Bodhisattva who was enfeoffed with the altar, but he didn't care much about it, and he still followed his heart.
Only Sun Wukong and Venerable Nagarjuna came to the door to invite him and told him that there must be a Buddha fruit. However, Sun Wukong was still sneezed and rushed out of the mountain. He had no choice but to give up!
