Intercept the second disciple

Chapter 372
"Master has been named a national teacher, and Master has settled down here in Chang'an." Sun Wukong said in a teahouse.

Both Zhu Bajie and Drifting nodded, and at this moment Sun Wukong hesitated and asked, "Do you feel that the master has actually changed after the daughter's kingdom?"

"You and I have changed a lot," Zhu Bajie said with a smile, "We just need to remember that he is our master."

"Junior Brother is right," Sun Wukong nodded and said, "I have to go back to Huaguo Mountain to have a look. You can go to Huaguo Mountain to find me if you have something to do in the future. Besides, Bajie, are you planning to go back to Heaven?"

Zhu Bajie sighed: "Tianhe Navy already has a new marshal, besides, since I was canonized by Buddhism, there is no place for me in Tiangong."

"How about going back to Huaguo Mountain with me?" Monkey King asked.

Zhu Bajie shook his head: "I also have some things to deal with, such as meeting someone."

"What are your plans, Junior Brother Sha?" Sun Wukong asked again.

Drifting laughed and said, "I'm going to visit the Heavenly Palace. The glazed cups have been mended, and my previous sins have been redeemed. I will see your majesty and empress again."

Drifting still wants to return to heaven, Zhu Bajie wanted to persuade him, but in the end Zhu Bajie still didn't say anything, after all, this is Drifting's obsession for many years.

Seeing that everyone turned their attention to him at last, Li Yu smiled and said, "I'll stay in Chang'an first."

"Okay," the big brother Sun Wukong raised his glass and said, "Then replace wine with tea, and the mountains will be high and the rivers will last forever, and we will meet again at the end of the world."

"See you at the end of the world." Everyone drank it in one gulp. Although it was weak tea, it seemed to have a different taste.

···
"Master, all three senior brothers have left." Li Yu said softly.

Liu Er nodded, and Liu Er looked at Li Yu: "Why don't you go?"

"Jiejiao is my home, and it is my blessing to be able to follow Master. It's just why Master didn't keep those senior brothers. Following Master is actually helpful for cultivation, and their future road may be smoother." Li Yu asked.

Liu Er smiled and said: "I can't bear them anymore? According to my original intention, I hope they will never come back, but since they have entered Buddhism, how can they go back to the past, just wait, you will meet again soon."

···
Since he was appointed as a national teacher, Liu Er's status has become more and more lofty, and there are many more people in the world who believe in Buddhism.

The six ears rest on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda has become a holy place for Buddhism and Taoism, and there are an endless stream of pilgrims and worshipers every day.

The sentient beings seem to have never thought that Liu Er didn't really speak the scriptures, and Liu Er never said anything about the truth of Buddhism.

But the sentient beings seem to have forgotten this point. They only know that Tang Seng is a Buddha. Since he is a Buddha, there is nothing wrong with worshiping him.

Moreover, traveling thousands of miles to the west, people, monsters, beasts, and immortals all have good fortune, and even ordinary people can become Buddhas. This seems to point out the direction for all living beings, and it seems that as long as they are sincere, they can become Buddhas.

This seems to be much easier than faith, so Buddhism flourishes day by day.

One day, Liu Er was sitting quietly in the pagoda, when a monk came to pay respects and said, "Holy Monk, Your Majesty invites you."

Liu Er nodded, and then walked out of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. There was already a carriage waiting outside the pagoda, which was brought by the eunuch last time.

Now Liu Er came to the palace quite a lot, no one stopped him at the gate of the palace, even the inspection was omitted, he was still in the imperial study room, Wu Zetian greeted him personally outside the gate.

"The national teacher has worked hard. I called the national teacher here today to inquire about something." Wu Zetian said straight to the point: "Time is ruthless, but the national teacher has always been a young man. I wonder if it is possible to teach me?"

Liu Er smiled and said: "It's not difficult, but there is never both in this world, as long as Your Majesty is willing to give up the world of mortals and riches, I would like to give Your Majesty an ageless face."

Although she is an empress, she is also a woman. Wu Zetian is very concerned about her appearance, but she is very reluctant to give up the power and position in the world. For that dragon chair, Wu Zetian gave up too much, and too many people died. Now How can she give up.

"Is there no other way?" Wu Zetian asked unwillingly.

"Is there an immortal king in the world?" Liu Er asked back.

Wu Zetian was silent, and after a while Wu Zetian asked: "I want to learn Buddhism, but I don't know if a holy monk can teach me?"

"It's not difficult, you just need to recite Amitabha Buddha a hundred thousand times, and you will enter bliss after death."

Wu Zetian looked at Liu Er in disbelief, it was so simple, Liu Er explained: "Becoming a Buddha is not difficult at all."

"The holy monk sees that I can become a Buddha." Wu Zetian couldn't help asking.

"No." Liu Er said.

Wu Zetian was greatly disappointed, but Liu Er said again: "Your Majesty can be a female Bodhisattva."

Wu Zetian said with a smile: "The words of the national teacher are very kind. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is also a woman. It can be seen that many women in the world are better than men."

Liu Er nodded and said: "So it is most appropriate for this king to be seated by His Majesty."

Wu Zetian said with satisfaction: "The national teacher can't rest in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda forever. I would like to build a temple for the national teacher. I don't know what the national teacher wants."

Liu Er is sure that after today, Wu Zetian will let everyone in the world know the conversation in the imperial study room, women are kings, there are many dissatisfaction in the world, but if it is a female Bodhisattva sitting on the dragon chair, just for this Wu Zetian Strongly support the six ears.

The higher Liuer's status is, the more prosperous Buddhism is, and the more stable her status will be.

So Wu Zetian wanted to build a temple and Liu Er did not refuse, Liu Er said: "Your Majesty has such a heart, it is really a blessing for my teaching, there is a big Leiyin Temple in the west, let's build a small Leiyin Temple."

"Shan, I will issue an edict later on to recruit skilled craftsmen from all over the world to come to Beijing. It's a pity that the spring is cold and I want to go to the Shangyuan with the national teacher, but the flowers in the Shangyuan are withered and there are no flowers to see."

Wu Zetian looked at the six ears and said: "It is said that the national teacher has become a Buddha. I don't know if the Buddha may order the four seasons to make the flowers in the garden bloom tomorrow."

Liu Er knew that this was Wu Zetian's last temptation, and it was extraordinary to be able to be a king in the body of a woman. Wu Zetian first observed secretly, and finally led Liu Er into the palace.She not only tested Liu Er's attitude many times, but also asked Liu Er how to spread the Buddha, and now she is going to test Liu Er's supernatural powers.

But these tests are trivial to Liu Er, Liu Er said with a smile: "Why do you need tomorrow, please write an edict now, Your Majesty."

"I can rule the world, but I can't command the Flower God of the Four Seasons, and my edict may be useless." Wu Zetian said.

"It will be fine if I am with His Majesty."

Wu Zetian smiled: "The national teacher will see what kind of edict I write is appropriate."

Liu Erdao: "Let's write that in the Ming Dynasty, you will travel to Shangyuan to announce the spring as soon as possible. The flowers will bloom overnight, so don't wait for the dawn wind to remind you."

Although the edict is not long, it is full of domineering, Wu Zetian said: "Please wait a moment, the national teacher."

Wu Zetian immediately picked up the pen, and not long after Wu Zetian wrote the imperial edict, a eunuch rushed over in panic and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, all the flowers in the Shangyuan are in bloom!"

Wu Zetian didn't care about the eunuch, and Wu Zetian said convincedly: "The national teacher is really a god, and I will do my best to help you preach."
