My Weird Life

Chapter 1362 In the sea of ​​life and death, who will be the boat? (11. Happy New Year to everyone!)

"Walking this road again..." Su Wu murmured, cast his gaze on Xuanzang, and asked him, "Master, all eminent monks and virtuous men like you can become a Buddha by witnessing the nature of the Dharma and becoming a Buddha. A part of Buddha on that shore.

Where did the Buddha on the shore come from in the first place, and what did he look like?

 In other words, what did Buddha look like initially and where did he come from? "

Looking into the origins of ‘Buddha’ and tracing the path of Buddha’s evolution, we may be able to get a glimpse of why it has such strange and terrifying characteristics—the ability to turn all those who become Buddhas into parts of itself? !

Xuanzang sighed and said: "Since he became a Buddha, there is no distinction between 'eternal', 'cause and effect', 'coming and going', and 'increasing or decreasing'.

Don’t Tan Yue understand?

 It appears in this world and can last through the next.

 It can incarnate in the eighty-eight Buddhas of thousands of worlds, and it can also merge into the only Buddha in all worlds.

The poor monk cannot trace the roots of this existence that has no beginning and end, no cause and effect, no coming and going, neither increase nor decrease... The Buddha who exists today was in the Sui Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, the Qin and Han Dynasties... They all exist. How do we find its original roots?

 Buddha exists in all time. "

"This is the realm of the other shore..." Su Wu heard this, his voice became much deeper, and he said slowly, "Buddha exists in all time and space, but he can not be in all time and space, and does not fall into cause and effect.

But compared to other existences on the other side that can still project some residual energy into the present world, its interference in the present world is indeed much less. Only those who have witnessed the nature of the Dharma and become a Buddha can know that "becoming a Buddha" is an inexhaustible path. The way back is to finally become it.

—I am determined to smash this Buddha to pieces and recreate the righteous Dharma! "

The light in Su Wu's eyes was blazing, and he looked at Master Xuanzang under a heavy rainbow light, and said: "But I don't know the root of this Buddha's achievement, I don't know its beginning, I don't know how it happened, and I don't know why it happened. Under such circumstances, I will If I walk the same path again, how can I not become the next 'Buddha'?"

Xuanzang laughed when he heard the words. In the laughter, the heavy rainbow light surrounding him gathered one after another. The 'Swastika' wheel seal rotated in the gathered Buddha light. Xuanzang's voice came out from the **** wheel seal. : "Buddha is fully self-aware, aware of others, and has perfect enlightenment...

 The Buddha is a great sage who truly knows and sees the nature of all dharmas and achieves perfect enlightenment...

 The Buddha is all wise people…

 The Buddha is the one with perfect and universal consciousness…

 The Buddha on the shore is not enough to be a Buddha.

If Tan Yue’s existence is true, his wisdom is sincere, he has great ambitions, and he has great courage—then the only great sage with perfect enlightenment and wisdom in all the heavens, who can liberate all sentient beings, why can’t he be Tan Yue?

Tan Yue may not be a Buddha, but if the day comes when he realizes the Great Holy Path, whether he is a Buddha or not, both will have no meaning. At that time, Tan Yue will be "all truth", "all wisdom" and "all Tathagata". …

If you can keep all this truth, all wisdom, and all Tathagata, Tan Yue will walk on the path of the Buddha again, and that Buddha will have no way to go... Tan Yue, the method of becoming holy is in this...

 The poor monk turned the nature of the law into relics and left them in Tan Yue's hands.

No matter what decision Tan Yue makes, the poor monk will not stand in his way...

 Who is the boat in the sea of ​​life and death?

 In the long night of darkness, who is the lamp?

 …

 The sea of ​​life and death is like a boat.

 In the long night of ignorance, the heart is like a lamp.

 …

 The sea of ​​life and death is like a boat.

 In the long night of ignorance, my heart is like a lamp..."

In the long chanting sound, numerous rainbow lights gathered into a Buddha bone relic that shimmered with milky white light, and slowly floated towards Su Wu.

Su Wu's expression was quiet. He stared at the relic coming from a distance. Finally, when the relic was approaching him, he lowered his eyes and sighed lowly, reaching out to hold the Buddha bone relic - his sexual intention floated out like a breeze. The center of his eyebrows flowed into the Buddha's bone relic in his palm. Then, a voice full of joy rang out from the Buddha's bone relic: "The supreme and subtle Dharma is difficult to encounter for hundreds of thousands of kalpas. I can accept and uphold what I have seen and heard now. Understanding the true meaning of Tathagata…

I would like to understand the true meaning of Tathagata..."

From today on, Su Wu inherits Xuanzang’s mantle, but does not need to consider himself a ‘disciple of Buddha’.

  —

The Buddha's light emanating from the Buddha's bone relic in his hand gradually converged and disappeared, but Su Wu could still feel the dharma nature within it that was running smoothly and without any hindrance.

 He became the successor of Xuanzang's mantle and could integrate this dharma nature into himself at any time.

However, if another dharma nature is integrated into his body now, Su Wu will definitely become a Buddha on the spot. But he is not ready to face the Buddha on the other side yet, so he will not integrate this dharma nature on the spot.

Su Wu straightened up, looked around the stalactite forest, and finally continued walking along the dried up "underground river" under the stalactite cave.

Su Wu’s primary goal is to explore the Big Wild Goose Pagoda during this trip and find out the clues related to Lu Mu, the ‘Tianhou’ and the place, and even the clues to the ‘Maitreya Inner Courtyard’.

However, now that he has even integrated the original gods under the Wild Goose Pagoda into his body, he still hasn't found many clues related to Lu Mu and Tianhou here.

But he was not completely unaware of it.

The stalactite cave he was in now was suspected to be the "Maitreya Inner Courtyard" where the female form Maitreya and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas once lived. When he first set foot in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, he also followed the long river of Xuanzang's Dharma. At the bottom of the long river of sex, he was led away by the 'Maitreya Inner Courtyard'.

Therefore, Su Wu now followed the river path formed by the continuous impact of the water flow, and continued to walk towards the end point of the river.

There is some connection between the Maitreya Inner Courtyard and the Xuanzang Dharma River.

Lu Mu’s strange charm descended on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

However, Xuanzang's Dharma nature is in Hanoi, but there is no trace of Lu Mu's charm. Xuanzang's photos do not mention anything related to Lu Mu and Maitreya's inner court.

 He is not aware of the changes in the outside world, and he has not been disturbed by external forces such as Lu's mother and Maitreya. It seems that monks such as Shenxiu and Huineng established the "Xiaoxitian World - Xiaoleiyin Temple" and even claimed to have mastered many things about the origin of dragon veins and gods between the two capitals, but they were not mentioned in Xuanzang's photos - Xuanzang's photos were entrusted to Su The nature of Wu can unlock the dragon veins of Chang'an and communicate with the original gods.

I wonder how Shenxiu and other monks managed to control the original gods between the two capitals?

Even though Mother Lu’s charming charm at that time could not infect Xuanzang’s sincerity and true nature, I wonder if the inner courtyard of Maitreya, where the female Prime Minister Maitreya lives, could withstand Mother Lu’s invasion?

Su Wu walked slowly along the river. Before he had gone too far, he was already approaching the end of the underground river.

 In the darkness there, the courtyard walls, dragon gate and other buildings made of bricks and stones were visible, and stone tablets were erected around the sealed dragon gate tomb wall.

—The gantry and the brick wall made of stone that have fallen down and are tightly connected to the ground are the main entrance of a mausoleum. The many stone tablets in front of the mausoleum are the guardian spirits of this large tomb.

On the stone tablets, there are inscriptions such as "Venerable Dragon-subduing Arhat Kassapa", "Venerable Binduluo Bhaluoluo Pavilion Sitting on a Deer", "Venerable Subintuo Arhat Sitting on the Deer" and other inscriptions.

There are eighteen stone tablets erected here.

 It corresponds to the "Eighteen Arhats".

Arhat means "killing thieves", "providing offerings", and "having no life". Among the eighteen great Arhats, sixteen are disciples of the Buddha. The stone tablet of these eighteen Arhats is erected here. This means that the Eighteen Arhats kill thieves and protect their lives.

In the center of the Forest of Eighteen Arhat Steles, in front of the huge stone dragon gate, there is a stone stele with the words "Ci Shi Yue Ancient Golden Wheel Holy God Emperor" written in large characters. The chiseled writing is poured with gold. Even after decades, it is still in this dark place. The sky of stalactite cave is shining brightly.

When Su Wu stepped here and saw the writings on the stone tablet, he was sure that he was in the right place!

And when he walked to the forest of Eighteen Arhat Steles, the images of Arhats carved out of stone and dotted with gold paint on the Eighteen Arhat Steles came to life in an instant - all kinds of great vows were integrated into the carved images of Arhats. On top of it, the inscriptions on the stele were transformed from emptiness to reality. In an instant, they were freed from the shackles of the stele. They could stand, sit, lie down or fly around Su Wu, transforming this stalactite cave into the sky, and instantly turned it into a Buddhist temple and Zen courtyard!

 Wisps of unstagnate Dharma nature are carried out between the eyebrows of the eighteen Arhats who have condensed their vows into golden bodies. The round lights behind their heads are towering, and they suddenly have the appearance of becoming Buddhas!

But at the next moment, green light burst out from the eyes of the 18th Arhat, and the even more gloomy and mysterious charm of Lu Mu spread from a statue of the 'Wishful Image' - the 18th Arhat suddenly had glowing green eyes all over his body. , one green eye after another, all focused on the uninvited guest who came here!

Su Wu watched the Eighteen Protectors wishing to be tainted by Lu's mother's charm. His expression did not change. He placed a palm on the head of the oncoming Protector wishing to come towards him, leaving his palm print on the head of the 'Happy Arhat'. Above the heavenly spirit, the ring scar on his head was instantly burned away, and a blazing fire burned on his head!

The flames of the great furnace rolled down, instantly turning the happy Arhat wishes into a torch!

The wishes have no emotional intelligence, they just protect the things in this place.

At this moment, I was even more infected by the mysterious charm of Lu's mother. Seeing the enemy approaching, they all gathered towards Su Wu without hesitation, hoping to use various methods to 'kill the thief'!

Suddenly the rainbow light surged in this place, and Lu Mu's strange rhyme was waiting for the opportunity to attack Su Wu himself!

Mother Lu's charm is very treacherous and difficult to deal with. Su Wu didn't have many effective methods to get rid of such charm in the past, but now he is even more different from the past. He just clasped his hands together and oppressed the Arhats and Mother Lu's charm. When I came here, my mind changed -

 A red sun suddenly rose above his head!

Under the illumination of the red light, all the great Arhats clasped their hands together uncontrollably. In an instant, they were implanted with Su Wu's nature, and they chanted in unison: "Who will make the boat in the ocean of life and death?

 In the long night of darkness, who is the lamp? "

  In the midst of the vigorous singing of the Buddha, all the gleaming green eyes of the eighteen great Arhats shone into the sky with red light, and the mysterious rhymes of Lu Mu that lingered and parasitized on all objects, the void, nature, will, and vows were all burned into the void!

Su Wu then gathered the eighteen wishes between his eyebrows and approached the giant monument painted with gold.

 ‘Ci’s Yue Ancient Golden Wheel Holy Emperor’.

 The so-called "Ci Shi" is "the name of the future Buddha Maitreya".

The so-called ‘Golden Wheel’ refers to the ‘Holy King of Wheels’.

In the past, when Su Wu was approving orders in the Secret Treasure Realm, his destiny also showed the appearance of the 'Holy King of Wheels' - he stood under that giant monument, and the gold characters on the monument quickly fell off, dissolved, and finally The entire giant monument became pitted and blurred, and any writing on it could no longer be seen clearly.

Su Wu then walked past the huge monument, opened the stone door that sealed off the stalactite cave, and walked into the tomb.

Inside the mausoleum, on the four walls, there are paintings of flying apsaras. Some of the apsaras are holding pipa in their arms, waving their broad sleeves, or holding flutes.

When Su Wu looked at them, they seemed to fly out of the mural and appeared before Su Wu's eyes, lifelike.

The flying dancers played the harp and flute and danced. In the vast and cold tomb, which seemed to have only a few murals, the sound of silk and bamboo could be heard, and the lingering sound lingered in the beams.

Accompanied by the rising and falling music, the power of rolling vows flooded out from the four murals like a great river. Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and Buddhas surrounded Su Wu, chanting the same title in unison: "Ci Shi The ancient Golden Wheel Holy Emperor..."

 “Ci’s Yue Ancient Golden Wheel Holy Emperor…”

 “Ci’s Yue Ancient Golden Wheel Holy Emperor…”

Amidst the vast and boundless chanting, each of the golden-armored warriors more than one foot tall carried the huge pillars, carried the beams, carried them to the mountain on their backs, and built carved beams and painted buildings, heavy buildings, deep courtyards, and towering palaces right in front of Su Wu's eyes!

Layers of golden steps are supported by jade pillars, rising upwards, leading straight to the zenith shrouded in clouds and mist, with colorful lights of five colors!

Su Wu looked at all the strange things in front of him. When he calmed down his mind, all the strange phenomena disappeared without a trace;

When he turned his mind, when he rolled around, the carved beams and towering palaces appeared in front of his eyes. When he boarded the golden steps, he found out the colorful sky.

Even so, Su Wu did not directly step onto the golden steps leading to him. Instead, he turned around and walked to the stone wall of a tomb. With one hand, he destroyed the mural depicting images of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, flying gods, and Arhats. Breaking that stone wall—

After the stone wall collapsed, there were shriveled mummies with rotten clothes and pottery altars sitting there.

Judging from the clothes on the mummies and the bare heads on their heads, these corpses were all monks during their lifetime. And the pottery altars also contained Buddha bone relics.

 Between the brows of the mummy and inside the pottery altar, there is great power of vows surging.

 Behind the four walls of the tomb, I don’t know how many monks with vows are still hidden!

It was the great power of vows exuded by countless monks that erected the towering heavenly palace and thousands of vast buildings!

The 'Ci Shi Yue Ancient Jinlun Holy Emperor' is the title of 'Wu Zetian'. This mausoleum hidden deep in the underground stalactite cave is undoubtedly Wu Zetian's mausoleum - it is now sealed behind four walls. Did each of the monks volunteer to die for Wu Zetian?

Or were they killed by Wu Zetian, who forcibly gathered their great vows to practice and build a "Heavenly Palace"?

The mausoleum is empty. Except for a few stone tablets, there is no trace related to the Queen of Heaven. Could it be that there are traces of the Queen of Heaven, or even her remains, in the heavenly palace built with great oaths?

Su Wu's mind was spinning, and he lowered his eyes to look at the golden steps that stretched to his feet.

Without any further hesitation, he climbed up the golden steps and climbed up to the top of the sky.
