Marshal Deng of the Conferred God

Chapter 297 Maitreya Buddha

Big ears and flat faces, shoulders and abdomen full of body fat.A mouthful of spring is full of joy, and his eyes are full of autumn waves.The open sleeves are floating and there are many blessings, and the straw sandals are full of energy.Fumin raises the pagoda, and the sea of ​​tranquility shines brightly on relics.There is a Buddha in the Bliss Taoist Temple, and there is a smiling monk named Maitreya.

In this world, apart from a few sages, there are many great gods who escape from the world. Apart from the real emperor of Minshan, Maitreya Buddha in the West is the most famous.

Lingshan, leading Zhenghe and Maitreya Buddha to discuss, the sky is full of flowers, and the ground is full of golden lotus.The teachings of the three vehicles are wonderfully performed, and the subtlety and ten thousand dharmas are complete.Talk for a while, talk about Zen for a while.The word "enlightenment" converts to the principle of sincerity, and guides nothing to give birth to Xingxuan.

Since the establishment of the Tianzhu Kingdom at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, Maitreya Buddha joined Buddhism and became the first Buddha under the two saints, with a noble status.

"Let me ask you about the Zen Pass. If you consult countless people, you will always end up in vain. How many years have you lost your mind by grinding bricks to make mirrors and accumulating snow as food?"

The receptionist said nothing at this point, and looked at Maitreya Buddha with a smile on his face. Maitreya Buddha said: "The hair swallows the sea, the mustard muster, and the golden head smiles. When enlightened, it surpasses the ten grounds and the three vehicles, and it has taken four lives." Six Ways. Who can hear Du Yu's spring dawn in front of the cliff, under the shadeless tree? Caoxi road is dangerous, and the mountains are deep with clouds, and the voices of old people here. Thousands of feet of ice cliff, five-leaved lotus blooming, ancient palace curtains hanging fragrant. At that time, if you see through the origin and flow, you will see the Three Jewels of the Dragon King."

Jie Yin smiled and said: "Miao, Taoist friends have profound Buddhism, and poor monks admire it. I have a word: Let go of the flames to illuminate the whirling, and the Dharma world will be revealed vertically and horizontally. To the subtle, more solid, the entrance says who will be saved. I am originally Practicing Dajue Chan, if you have a predestined relationship and aspirations, you will remember your enlightenment!"

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Maitreya Buddha uttered three wonderful words in a row, all of which were smiles. He can tolerate things that are difficult to tolerate in the world;

"You two fellow Taoists are really at ease. Buddhism is about to face a catastrophe, but you are talking about metaphysics here."

At this moment, Zhunti entered the backyard. Originally, because the two men were teaching the Dharma, those golden trees, the heavenly dragons heard the beauty, the flowers bloomed, and the pearls spit out beads, but because of Zhunti's arrival, all the miraculous phenomena disappeared. up.

He said: "What did the Buddha say? Under our careful governance, Buddhism is becoming stronger and stronger. Even in the east, there are many believers of our religion. This is a sign of spreading branches and leaves, and it indicates that our religion will flourish in the Three Realms."

Zhunti sighed: "Brother Dao, I just got the news that Taoism wants to form an alliance with the Heavenly Court. Yuanshi Tianzun married the third generation disciple Yang Chan to Deng Jiugong. Isn't this a disaster for my Buddhism?"

Originally, he planned to take advantage of the opportunity of Deng Jiugong's descending to the demons to cause a bloody battle between the two religions and reap the benefits of the fisherman.As a result, the matter was out of his control, fetching water from a bamboo basket was a waste of time, and he felt so useless that he went to the Heavenly Court, only to learn that the two who were life and death enemies were about to reconcile, Zhunti was shocked by the news After staying in a daze, I went to see Yuanshi Tianzun, then hurried back to Lingshan.

Jieyin was startled, and then said indifferently: "Fellow Daoist, you are worrying too much. As you said, Yuanshi Tianzun is narrow-minded and has a strong personality. How could a person like him compromise with Deng Jiugong after suffering such a big loss? I'm afraid there is an ulterior purpose in this."

Zhunti said: "Brother Dao, I also thought so when I first heard the news. But brother Dao, have you thought about it, whether it is the Jade Emperor or Deng Jiugong, both of them are extremely intelligent people. If Yuanshi Tianzun has ulterior motives, they Will you accept this marriage?"

"This……"

Jie Yin was taken aback, this matter was quite strange, the Jade Emperor could become the Supreme Being of the Three Realms, needless to say, his ability was not inferior to his own.And Deng Jiugong's means of being able to become Emperor Ziwei from a small mortal commander is probably rare in the world. Facing this combination, Yuanshi Tianzun wants to deceive them, I am afraid it will be as difficult as heaven.

"Fellow Daoist Zhunti, from what you can see, this alliance between Taoism and Heaven is sincere."

Maitreya Buddha, who has been listening, couldn't help but speak.

Zhunti said: "I'm not sure at first, but seeing the cheers in the heavenly court, and the Taoists attach great importance to this matter, I'm afraid it's true in all likelihood."

Jie Yin said in a deep voice: "In this way, if the two families really form an alliance, the situation of our Buddhism will be quite bad." If Buddhism wants to develop again, I'm afraid it will provoke the wrath of the two families.

"Brother Dao, this matter is of great importance. We must think of a proper way to avoid disaster."

As it was about the safety of Buddhism, Zhunti was a little impatient. After all, Buddhism had developed to this stage, but he and Jieyin had spent countless efforts.

Jieyin glanced at Maitreya Buddha and said, "Daoist friends. The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. From what you can see, what is the real purpose of Taoism's practice?"

Maitreya Buddha said: "Golden Zhi Sanxiu's poetry circle is auspicious, and precious trees with thousands of flowers and lotus stamens are fragrant. One hundred feet must be advanced, and the worlds of ten directions are standing and hiding. The moon is in the sky, and there are shadows in the water. Although you can see it, there is no place to touch it. It's just an empty ear."

Jieyin Daxi said: "I understand the meaning of Taoist friends. Now the intention of this Taoism is like the moon in the water. Although it can be seen clearly, it is not true. It is the wisest choice for us not to move."

Maitreya Buddha said: "My Buddha is supremely wise, and the poor monk admires him."

In his view, bliss is a peaceful land in the world. As a Buddha, he radiates the light of conversion to the Buddha, and he saves all the mountains, that is, the people at the foot of the Lingshan Mountain, are bathed in the light of the Buddha.Such a world should not be mixed with intrigue.

Zhunti frowned. Since Maitreya Buddha joined Buddhism, Jieyin had a lot of trust in him, and told his disciples that he has supreme wisdom and is the future Buddha.This directly led to the rise of Maitreya Buddha's status in the religion, almost surpassing himself as an old Buddha, which made Zhunti feel a little dissatisfied.

Maitreya Buddha meant something, and Zhunti had a deep understanding, so he naturally understood what it meant, but he believed in the vision of the Jade Emperor and Deng Jiugong.

"Brother Dao. As the saying goes: you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must have the heart to guard against others. No matter whether this alliance is true or not, our Buddhism must keep a low profile and act carefully in the future, so as not to let the heavens catch it."

Then he said: "Your fellow Taoist is right, so I will leave this matter to you. Maitreya Buddha and I just gave a lecture on ten thousand dharmas, and we were in the middle of it. Although we were interrupted by fellow Taoists, our interest has not diminished. We should continue." .”

Maitreya Buddha smiled and said: "The Supreme Buddha's Dharma is profound, a conversation with you is better than a poor monk who has practiced hard for ten years!"

Then he said, "Isn't it a great blessing for each other, you and I to make progress together, practice Buddhism together, and realize Taoism together."

If there was no one talking to the other side, the two were addicted to it, and Zhunti felt very bored, so he left the backyard and went to find the lamp.Among the several disciples, Randeng has the most important roots, is proficient in Buddhism, and is highly regarded by Zhunti.

"The disciple has met the master."

He made a salute by burning the lamp. Although Zhunti's plan failed, he was not disappointed. He believed that as long as he worked hard, the Dinghai Pearl, which was related to his own enlightenment, would return to him sooner or later.

Zhunti talked about the marriage between Taoism and Heaven, and asked Ran Deng his opinion on this matter.

After all, Ran Deng has been by Yuanshi Tianzun's side for many years, and he has a clear understanding of this saint's mind. He thought about it carefully, and then said: "Master, I am afraid this matter is not that simple. Among the three realms, the person Yuanshi Tianzun hates the most is Deng Jiugong, I'm afraid he will take advantage of the marriage to deal with Deng Jiugong."

Zhunti's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "This matter is serious."

Ran Deng said: "Based on my disciple's understanding of Yuanshi Tianzun, I'm afraid it will happen. As for how he plans to deal with Deng Jiugong, I don't know."

Hearing this, all the worries of Zhunti disappeared at this moment, and nodded with a smile.
