The King of Fortune

Chapter 401 Bodhi Patriarch
Watching chess Ke Lan, cutting lumber Ding Ding, walking slowly at the mouth of the valley beside the cloud, selling salaries and wine, laughing wildly from potting love.Cang Jingqiu is high, hates the moon pillow, and wakes up at dawn.Recognize the old forest, land on the shore and cross the ridge, and cut off the withered vines with an axe.Collected into a load, Xingge market, Yimi three liters.There is no competition, the market price is mediocre, there is no cleverness, no honor or disgrace, and life is calm.Where we meet, there is either immortality or Taoism, sit quietly and talk about Huangting.

Tathagata left Lingshan and came to a high mountain with beautiful scenery. He knew that Zhunti had been avoiding the world all this time, but he didn't know where the mountain was hidden in the undulating mountains before him.

For 300 years, he has always wanted to find an opportunity to ease the relationship between the two.Originally, there was this opportunity, but Daoist Mosquito was ineffective, now he put aside his identity as senior brother and came to find Zhunti himself.

At this time, a woodcutter was carrying a load of firewood, walking towards this side while singing, Tathagata smiled slightly, stepped forward and said: "The woodcutter, poor monk, you are polite."

The woodcutter looked Tathagata up and down, and saw that he was imposing, showing a superior demeanor, so he hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

"The poor monk asks you, who taught you this poem."

Such moral words are definitely not from the mouth of a woodcutter.

The woodcutter replied: "This poem was taught to me by a god. He is next to my house. He saw that my family is poor and my daily troubles. He taught me to recite this poem when I encounter troubles. It is a relaxing time. , the second is to solve the problem. I have some inadequacies and think about it, so I think about it."

It's strange to say, no matter how troubled you are, once you say this word, your troubles will be wiped away immediately, such immediate results are more useful than medicine stones.

Tathagata nodded and said, "Where does the immortal live, please show me the way."

With the advice of the woodcutter, in the blink of an eye, Tathagata arrived at Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai, where the oblique moon and three-star cave stele was located.Looking at the closed cave door, Tathagata smiled and said loudly: "Poor Daoist Tathagata, if you have something to see Patriarch Bodhi, please come out and see him."

Although this junior brother left Lingshan and changed his name because of a moment of anger, he has not forgotten Lingshan in his heart, as can be seen from the words Lingshan Fangcunshan.

Not long after the words fell, the cave door opened wide, and a Taoist with half-white beard and hair came out, slapped the Tathagata, and said calmly: "Poverty Bodhi, I don't know why you see me."

Tathagata said: "Brother, you and I haven't seen each other for 300 years, so you don't invite me in for a sit down."

Patriarch Bodhi said, "Fellow Daoist, you and I have never met each other before. Why did the poor Taoist invite you in? If there is nothing wrong with the fellow Taoist, then the poor Taoist will go back to the cave to practice."

"Since my brother has changed his name to Bodhi, and he is accepting apprentices here to preach, it can be seen that you still have the Western religion in your heart. The poor monk came here, why didn't you even give him a chance to meet honestly, you really are so heartless towards me, brother."

Bodhi is enlightenment and wisdom, which means that people suddenly wake up as if from sleep, suddenly become enlightened, break into the path of thorough enlightenment, realize the truth suddenly, and reach a state of transcendence.Zhunti can fool others, but not himself.

Patriarch Bodhi sneered and said, "I'm heartless. Compared to your reception, I'm so insignificant that I'm not worth mentioning."

"I have not used this name for 300 years."

Tathagata was a little bit emotional. In the past 300 years, too many things have happened, and he has too many things to say to Zhunti.

"Tathagata, you also saw Pindao, and I also admit my identity, so let's go."

Patriarch Bodhi issued an order to expel guests, and he parted ways with Tathagata a long time ago, and the two have nothing to do with each other.

"Junior brother, do you know that there was a rebellion in Lingshan a few days ago. My sixth-grade lotus platform was snatched by Taoist Mosquito, Puxian died, and dozens of disciples died in battle. This time, Buddhism suffered heavy losses. My Buddhist They have become the laughing stock of the Three Realms."

Tathagata never expected that Daoist Mosquito had the guts to kill himself, and Buddhism was caught off guard, and his heart was filled with bitterness.

Patriarch Bodhi's expression moved, but he quickly returned to normal, and said lightly: "What does this have to do with poor Taoism, Lingshan is given to you, Buddhism is yours, even if it is destroyed by your hands, it has nothing to do with me. "

The Tathagata murmured: "Junior Brother, if the Lingshan Mountain is destroyed, the inheritance of the Bodhi way will be terminated, so why are you and I working so hard?"

As soon as these words came out, the expression of the Bodhi ancestor changed greatly. The way of Bodhi is the way to achieve the Tao. How could there be any mistakes, "Tathagata, you don't have to scare me. With you sitting in Lingshan, even if you mess up once or twice, you can't get out." What a big basket."

"Junior brother, at this time and at that time, although our Buddhism is powerful, the territory we actually control is only a tiny piece of land like Lingshan. If we can't win Xiniu Hezhou, the so-called great prosperity of Buddhism is just a joke. And the power of the heavenly court is getting bigger and bigger. , The dominance over the Three Realms is becoming more and more consolidated. If this trend continues, Xiniu Hezhou will one day become owned by the heavenly court. At that time, my Buddhism can only be attached to the heavenly court. In addition, Taoism has been restless and has the intention of getting involved in Xiniu Hezhou , The poor monk has endured pressure from both sides."

Xiniu Hezhou is under the control of the Heavenly Court in name, but the center of gravity of the Heavenly Court is in the Immortal Realm, and its control over this land is limited, otherwise there would be no monster clan forces on the top of the mountain.

Just because the Jade Emperor did not use troops against Xiniu Hezhou, Tathagata has always wanted to take this land as a base.

Patriarch Bodhi traveled in the east and saw the intrigue among the three religions. He also understood the Tathagata's difficulties, so he said, "This is just external pressure. With your Tathagata's means, it is not difficult to resolve it."

Tathagata sighed: "It's true to say so, but I am the only saint in Buddhism, and the ability to burn lamps is still a bit weak. It is difficult to pose a threat to those high-truths. Without a strong backing, how can we deal with the two forces. Besides Daoist Mosquito snatched six lotus platforms, if the energy of this treasure of the town religion is absorbed, our Buddhism is afraid that there will be an enemy, and then the pressure on Buddhism will be even greater."

Patriarch Bodhi didn't speak, he was still angry with Tathagata, if Tathagata hadn't insisted on going his own way back then, Lingshan had two saints sitting in town, how could a mere Taoist priest dare to make trouble.

Tathagata glanced at him, admitted his mistake, and said, "It's my brother's mistake. I shouldn't have ignored your objection and forcibly changed my religious name."

For the current Buddhism, the help of Patriarch Bodhi is too much needed, and this is also the purpose of the Tathagata coming here regardless of his injuries.

Patriarch Bodhi said: "You are injured."

Tathagata did not hide anything, and told what happened in Lingshan that day. After hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi's expression was a little moved. Tathagata had proved the supreme Nirvana, and his cultivation level surpassed his own by a large margin. He was injured by the scorpion spirit , it is incredible.

"How can Pindao help you?"

Patriarch Bodhi couldn't let Lingshan go, it was where he had spent thousands of years, so he asked
Tathagata was overjoyed when he heard this, and slowly said: "Such a big thing happened to my Buddhism. The Heavenly Court and Taoism watched a joke, and at the same time they will despise my Buddhism in their hearts. This is extremely detrimental to the development of Buddhism. So please come with me, my brother." Let’s go to Lingshan and open the altar to teach the Fa for a few days.”

Patriarch Bodhi nodded. He knew that Tathagata's intention was to create momentum for Buddhism. No matter what Buddhism has experienced, there are two saints. Those who secretly plot against Buddhism must carefully weigh the consequences.
