Rebirth of Journey to the West

When Tan Gongde Buddha came to the capital of Wuchang Kingdom, he saw the faces of the people and monks in the city. He looked at Saint Kong and God Taihao above the imperial city. The twelve demon gods surrounded Taihao, like lotus petals, showing their nobility and making people feel proud. Upon seeing him, he felt that he had a demeanor that was even more heartbreaking than that of a saint.

Seeing the twelve twelve-grade lotus pedestals, Zhantan Merit Buddha sighed secretly: "Fortunately, he has not yet attained enlightenment. Otherwise, who can cure him after attaining enlightenment?" He bravely flew forward, and saw a figure in front of him. Looking at him coldly.

God Taihao held the Star Dou Mo in his hand and said indifferently: "Are you here to die?"

Zhan Tan Merit Buddha lowered his eyebrows and said, "I came here to clarify my doubts with Your Majesty."

God Taihao snorted, stretched out his hand, and saw a third-grade lotus platform flying over. There were thirty-six steel knives on the lotus platform. The tip of the knife was upward, and there was a cold light, and he said: "Sit down!"

The face of the Tantan Merit Buddha did not change. He sat on the lotus platform and let the steel knife strike his body. He said: "Your Majesty, this time the Tathagata Buddha blocked Confucius from preaching the Taoist brother's enlightenment. It is certainly the Buddha's fault, but it is different from the Western religion in our world. It has nothing to do with it, and there are many doubts.”

God Taihao sneered: "It doesn't matter? You are a disciple trained by the Buddha himself. You have high hopes, even far beyond Maitreya. How can you say it doesn't matter?"

The Tantan Merit Buddha smiled and said: "Drink water and think about kindness. Since the young monk has taken root in this world, he is a person of this world. From the moment he came to this world, the young monk said to himself: Golden Chan Son, you are no longer a person in the Earthly Immortal Realm, and all the past experiences in the Earthly Immortal Realm have nothing to do with you. Therefore, I accept Bodhi and Qinglian as my disciples and teach him the Dharma. Therefore, the young monk dares to say that what Tathagata Buddha did in the Earthly Immortal Realm is nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with Xiao Monk.”

God Taihao sneered: "So, the old thief Tathagata still recognizes you as his disciple, but you don't recognize Tathagata as the master, right?"

Zhantan Merit Buddha looked embarrassed. He nodded with a smile and said: "Exactly. As for the other doubts, if the young monk is the Tathagata Buddha and wants to prevent Brother Kong Xuan from attaining enlightenment, his disciples will certainly not be implicated. How can he let his disciples become such evil people? Offend him. Sage Kong and Your Majesty, do Tathagata Buddha really think that the young monk and the Bodhi Green Lotus are enough to withstand the wrath of Your Majesty and Sage Kong? "

God Taihao was horrified and moved. This golden cicada thought clearly and logically, as if he were the Tathagata Buddha. It certainly wouldn't be done this way.

"When this golden cicada was reincarnated, he was ravaged by Wukong in every possible way. At that time, I still looked down on him. Who knew that after he regained his sanity and supernatural powers, he turned out to be a powerful character! Tathagata Buddha accepted a good disciple and had a successor. It is really enviable. !”

Zhantan Merit Buddha's face softened slightly when he saw God Taihao. He also said: "It can be seen that what happened just now was not done by our Western sect, but someone deliberately framed it. In our world, although there are strong people everywhere, the only ones who can get the spiritual energy of the earthly and immortal world are people from the six sects: Ren Yanjie The Western Buddha Demon. The Xuandu Saint of the Renjiao would not do this. The Taoist Duobao of the Jiejiao and Confucius Xuan should not be like this either.

This matter is not done by Western religions. Buddhism is under the control of His Majesty. As a result, only demon religion and interpretation are left. Demon Master Peng is newly married and is a close friend of His Majesty. He should not frame His Majesty. Sage Yunzhong is still holding a lecture in Yuxu Palace, so he should have no time to go. Sage Yunzhong seems to be the most unlikely one. "

Chantan Merit Buddha smiled slightly and said: "But he is actually the most likely. The sage in the cloud was pulling spiritual energy at the edge of the universe. During this period, Tathagata Buddha and Amitabha were also pulling spiritual energy there. If I were Tathagata Buddha, I would definitely use Ming Xiu Plank Road secretly plotted Chen Cang's plan to launch a surprise attack with five planets, but secretly asked Yun Zhongzi to secretly throw the star pills that stored the spiritual energy of the immortal world into Saint Kong's Saint Spiritual Cloud. In this way, Kong could be delayed. The purpose of Brother Xuan Dao’s enlightenment is to sow discord between His Majesty and the Saint in Yun Zhong, so as to give the Western religion a chance to breathe and develop.”

Taihao God was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed: "Jun, what a talent! If there was someone like you under my sect, I would have already proven the Tao and established the religion, and unified the world!" After that, he said with great sincerity: "Tao. Friend, give up your Western religion and join my sect. After I attain enlightenment, I will give you the position of deputy leader!"

Zhan Tan Merit Buddha smiled and said, "Your Majesty, everyone has his or her own ambitions."

"Everyone has his own ambitions, and I won't force you." Taihao God also smiled slightly and said: "You are just like a lotus flower and want to get out of this matter, but everything the Tathagata old thief does is for you. Even if it has nothing to do with you, I still want to take advantage of your Western religion and kill one or two of the sects to show Tathagata Buddha what he can do to me from across the universe. , I am satisfied."

The face of Zhantan Merit Buddha remained unchanged and he said: "Your Majesty, the young monk is willing to give me the true Dharma of enlightenment in dreams, for peace of mind." After saying that, he laid down a magical barrier to protect the Dharma of enlightenment in dreams.

Xu said it again.

The twelve demon gods laughed together and said: "The Tathagata Tathagata had a trick on us before and gave us the fake one, which almost cost us our lives. Now his disciples personally sent the real one, and the old Buddha's nose must have been crooked with anger." !”

The Buddha of Zhantan Merit smiled and said: "How do you know that what the young monk taught you is true? Maybe it is also false."

God Taihao smiled and said nothing. Suddenly, the air around him rippled, and a strange beast as white as jade appeared. The strange beast smiled and said, "I know from your heart that this technique is real."

The face of Zhantan Merit Buddha changed. God Taihao hid Baize beside him. Could it be that he knew that he was coming, and even taught the enlightenment method in his dream, so he had Baize waiting for him?

"Taihao is comparable to my master. No wonder Yun Zhongzi also suffered at his hands..."

When the Buddha of Zhantan Merit thought of this, he heard God Taihao laugh and say: "My fellow Taoist taught me the method of enlightenment in a dream. Death penalty can be avoided, but living penalty is unforgivable. I will suppress you at the foot of the mountain and release you only after I have attained enlightenment." Come out, are you convinced?"

Zhantan Gongde Buddha looked bitter and said, "The young monk is not convinced. Can your Majesty give the young monk a chance to defend himself?"

"Haha, I won't give it to you. Who made you so smart? I won't feel at ease if I don't suppress you!"

Zhantan Gongde Buddha smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty suppressed the young monk because he had some knowledge, but the deeper purpose was to paralyze the saint in the clouds? If the saint in the clouds knew that your majesty already knew that he had done this, he would only I am afraid that I will have trouble sleeping and eating, and I will try every possible means to plot against Your Majesty before His Majesty attains enlightenment. I am not afraid of thieves stealing, but I am afraid that thieves will miss me. If Your Majesty wants to attain Enlightenment with peace of mind, he must suppress the young monk and give him some suffering. I hope that there will be no Zhenyuan in Heaven. During these hundred years of sainthood, nothing happened. Is the young monk right?"

God Taihao sighed: "That's so right. If you take refuge in me, you will be a hundred times better than others." As he said that, the lotus platform under the Buddha's seat of Zhantan Merit automatically flew outwards. The Buddha did not stop him and allowed the lotus platform to take him away. Go outside the city. The lotus platform suddenly turned over, and the Sandalwood Buddha fell from the sky!

The lotus platform also fell down immediately, and turned into a high mountain when it hit the ground, shaped like a lotus flower, pressing the Sandalwood Buddha at the foot of the mountain. God Taihao wrote another post and handed it to the Great Sage Zhu Po Long. The Great Sage Zhu Polong took the post, flew to the top of Lotus Mountain, and stuck the post tightly on a square stone. Suddenly, Lotus Mountain took root and cracked, connecting to the earth's veins. Unless you use great magic to peel off the post, you can only escape from the mountain by destroying the earth's veins.

Taihao God whispered: "Who told you to be too smart and make me fearful? Western teachings say that one Tathagata is enough. Two Tathagatas, do you still want me to sleep peacefully? If you join me, you will also I won’t suffer this anymore.”

I wonder what the Buddha of Zhantan Merit would think after hearing this.

God Taihao immediately ordered the king of Wuchang Kingdom to come out to meet him and told him: "Eat some vegetarian food with him every day, and don't let the monk starve. Don't talk to him about copper juice and iron pills, and don't let others insult you wantonly." , after all, he is a man of enlightenment.”

The king of the Intestinal Kingdom accepted the order and ordered his officials to write down the incident, so that after he abdicated, the next king would forget the incident and make heaven angry. The king was also a smart man, and he led the civil and military officials to ask for holy water and elixir. God Taihao couldn't help but think of an allusion in Journey to the West, shook his head and smiled, and said: "Holy water? Haha... Look up, The person above your head is the saint. It is better to pray to him than to ask for the elixir of life. He has a wonderful method in his chest that can protect your kingdom for eternity. He also has a majestic spirit that can guarantee your immortality. Instead of asking for the elixir of youth, it is better to seek the Tao and practice the true method. "After that, several of the twelve corpse gods who served as deputy leaders did not return to their respective sects, and returned to Taihao's body along with the other disciples.

When God Taihao saw that Kong Xuan had finished drawing the spiritual energy, he secretly spoke to him. Kong Xuan was silent for a long time and said: "You bullied me too much, I will pay him back sooner or later!"

God Taihao asked: "How long until Brother Tao can attain enlightenment?"

"Less than half a lifetime."

Taihao God smiled and said: "Good. In this way, we can be at the same time." Kong Xuan was puzzled and asked: "After I attain the Hunyuan Dao Fruit, Confucianism will be completely established. How can your Majesty say that we are at the same time? "

God Taihao smiled and said: "I have learned the method of enlightenment in a dream. With my great merit and strength, half a century is enough to achieve enlightenment. In the dream of enlightenment, the celestial phenomena do not appear, there is no abnormality, but it is Amitabha's fearful power. When my fellow Taoists establish a religion, and I gain acquired merit and become a meritorious saint, who will dare to seek evil from me?"

After that, he laughed endlessly and sat on Bai Ze. Clouds formed under Bai Ze's feet and he slowly walked towards the heaven. .
