The counterattack of the villains

The Holy Land of Lingshan Mountain in the West is surrounded by golden Buddha light, illuminating all directions.

There is a treasure temple on Lingshan, which is sacred, majestic, majestic and huge. It is called Daleiyin Temple.

Bursts of Sanskrit chants rang out from Daleiyin Temple and spread all over Lingshan Mountain.

Inside the Daxiong Hall, the Tathagata sits high on a lotus platform, with a golden body of six feet long, radiating immeasurable Buddha light, and a faint smile on his chubby face, showing compassion and peace.

On the two smaller lotus platforms on the left and right of Tathagata, there are two bodhisattvas, Manjushri and Samantabhadra.

Avalokitesvara is not there, her ashram is in the Chaoyin Cave in Zizhu Forest, Luojia Mountain, South China Sea, and she usually does not come to Daleiyin Temple if there is no serious matter.

And Manjusri Puxian is Tathagata's Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, which is equivalent to the status of assistant, so he is always by Tathagata's side.

Under the Tathagata and the bodhisattvas serving him on the left and right, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas either sit in lotus lotus position or stand solemnly.

On the left and right sides of the main hall, the Venerable Eighteen Arhats have different postures, sitting or lying down, motionless, like statues.

After the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, there are the eight tribes, the eighteen protectors and the twenty-eight patriarchs of the Western Paradise.

Needless to say, Babuzhong and Shibajialan are quite well-known.

As for the combination of the 28 ancestors of the Western Heaven, many people are not familiar with it, but if you talk about a few of them individually, you will be familiar with it.

For example, the first patriarch is Maha Kassapa, and the second patriarch is Ananda. They are all direct disciples of the Tathagata.

The names of other people are unknown, but the 28 ancestors are famous.

The 28 ancestors are called Bodhidharma, who is the patriarch Bodhidharma who faced the wall in Songshan Mountain for nine years, created 72 stunts, and founded Shaolin Temple.

After becoming a Buddha and ancestor, his 72 unique skills were evolved into 72 supernatural powers by him, which is very powerful. Compared with the 72 changes of earth evil, he is better at fighting.

Bodhidharma is the youngest, and his cultivation is not the highest, but his combat power is undisputedly the first among the 28 ancestors of the Western Paradise.

Behind the 28 patriarchs of the Western Paradise, there are five hundred arhats sitting quietly on futons, and Li Mu's third senior brother, the golden-bodied arhat Sha Wujing, is among them.

After five hundred arhats, there are three thousand Dharma protectors.

In the Daxiong Palace, there is no one whose cultivation level is lower than that of the Golden Immortal.

Jinxian is the guaranteed state of entering the Daxiong Palace, and Daluo has a little right to speak. It can be seen that the depth and strength of Buddhism today are far from comparable to heaven.

At this time, Manjushri Bodhisattva was asking Tathagata: "My Buddha, in recent years, Buddhist incense has flourished, but I don't know why?"

The Tathagata smiled and looked at one of the Buddhas, and said slowly, "This is the work of Zhantan Gongde Buddha."

Tang Sanzang looked at Tathagata in bewilderment and said, "My disciple has been listening to my Buddha's wonderful teachings in Lingshan for decades, and never went out. How can this be a disciple's merit?"

Tathagata smiled and said: "The closed disciple you accepted more than [-] years ago has traveled all over Nanzhan Buzhou in the past ten years, subduing demons and eliminating demons, helping the world and saving people, promoting Buddhism, and saving all peoples."

"The name of his living Buddha is known all over the world, and even the Buddhist incense is flourishing, which is really boundless merit."

"Fahai?" Tang Sanzang suddenly realized, and happily said, "Amitabha, you are so good."

Just as he finished speaking, the expressions of all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the hall changed, and they all looked in the direction of Nanzhan Buzhou.

Puxian Bodhisattva's eyes shined brightly and said: "This is my Buddhist disciple who has attained the fruit position and broke through the Daluo, but I don't know who it is."

Tathagata calculated with his fingers, couldn't help feeling overjoyed, and said with a smile, "I was still talking about him just now, and this gave me another surprise."

Tang Sanzang said in surprise and joy: "It's the disciple, that little disciple who has attained the Daluo? How is this possible? Even though he is the root of wisdom in the sky, it has only been more than thirty years!"

Tathagata smiled and said: "I will not hide the matter from you until now, your closed disciple was King Mahuraka in his previous life."

"Because he broke precepts and flattered him in his previous life, hated more and gave less, was greedy for alcohol and meat, abstained from falling into ghosts and gods, and had a lot of hatred and insects in his body, so he was ordered by Amitabha Buddha (the sage who received him) to reincarnate and rebuild."

"The sea of ​​Dharma in this life has entered your sect, with one heart upright, with merit added to the body, and has regained the power of the previous life. Therefore, in just over [-] years, you have attained Da Luo. This is all due to your enlightenment."

After listening to the Tathagata's explanation, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas suddenly realized, or joined together, or raised their palms and recited: "Amitabha, so good."

Mahuraka, originally a boa constrictor god, is one of the eight dragons, ranking the youngest, and King Mahuraka is the head of the group.

"Zhan Tan Gongde Buddha, Fahai's merits and virtues are complete, he should be appointed as the official position, and you, the master, will go and lead him back to Lingshan!"

Tang Sanzang happily said: "I will obey the law."

……

There is an island in the Yangtze River in Zhenjiang Prefecture, and there is a Jinshan on the island, and the Jinshan Temple is located on the Jinshan.

In the Legend of the White Snake, Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing's water overflows the Jinshan Mountains, and the tune is the water of the Yangtze River.

The Jinshan Temple in this prehistoric world is extremely magnificent, the entire mountain has been hollowed out, Jinshan Temple is inside the mountainside, and there are huge Buddha statues carved everywhere outside the mountain.

The steps extend from the gate of the temple to the middle of the Yangtze River. If you can't fly, you can only use a ferry to get in and out.

At this time, the sky above Jinshan Temple was illuminated by Buddha's light, golden lotuses bloomed, and the long river of time and space appeared. Countless seas of Fa jumped out of the long river and submerged into Li Mu's body on the top of the mountain.

On the top of Jinshan, the monks of Jinshan Temple prostrated to the top of the mountain endlessly, while Bai Suzhen and others were excited.

Proved Da Luo, from now on the achievement of the only one, not in the past, not in the future, only exists in the present.

This is of great significance to a monk.

Because there is a method in the world that can directly erase the past or future of the target from the long river of time and space.

When the past you are erased, the present and future you will disappear and cease to exist.

It's a very simple reason, you were dead in the past, so naturally you don't exist now.

And if you in a certain period of time in the future are erased, then when you live to that time, you will surely die.

One is "you are dead" and the other is "you are dead".

But once you have attained enlightenment and achieved the only true self, and the past and future do not exist, this method will no longer be able to deal with you.

The moment Li Mu broke through Da Luo, a stream of mana emerged from his body out of thin air, and at the same time the seal of the reincarnation memory was broken, and a memory belonging to the previous life flooded into Li Mu's mind.

Only then did he realize that Fa Hai's background was so great, and he was not some ordinary human race with no roots.

But no matter what he was in his previous life, he is just Fahai of the human race in this life.

To put it a little deeper, no matter what the situation of the role he replaces, he will always be Li Mu.

Just like Zhantan Gongde Buddha, even if he regained the memory of his previous life, he is no longer a golden cicada, but Tang Sanzang of the human race.

The mana that belonged to King Mahuraka merged into Li Mu's body without any violation or rejection, and it merged smoothly with his own mana.

And Li Muna's mana, which had just broken through to the early stage of Da Luo, also began to increase rapidly, and his foundation was extremely solid, without the slightest vainness.

The heads of the eight tribes, at least all started from Daluo, like the top-ranked heads of the gods, Brahma and Indra, and the head of the dragons, King Naga, are all quasi-sages.

And the youngest, King Mahulaka, also has the cultivation base of the middle stage of Daluo.

However, the ordinary big Luo is incomparable with Li Mu, who uses his strength to prove the Tao, and his mana is not of the same order.

Therefore, Li Mu's own cultivation at the early stage of Daluo, coupled with King Mahulaka's cultivation at the middle stage of Daluo, finally only pushed Li Mu's realm to the late stage of Daluo, comparable to his master Tang Sanzang.

Of course, it's just that the realm is the same. In terms of actual combat power, it's no problem for him to beat ten Tang Sanzang.

When Li Mu's breakthrough was over, the vision had just disappeared, and the sky lit up with Buddha's light again, accompanied by a peaceful Sanskrit chanting.

Looking up at the sky, I saw a Buddha sitting on a lotus platform in the sky, with a golden light behind his head shining in all directions, emerging out of thin air.

When Li Mu saw the Buddha, he stood up quickly, and a white cloud condensed under his feet, supporting him to fly to the sky.

Coming in front of the Buddha, Li Mu clasped his palms together, bowed deeply, and said, "Disciple Fa Hai, pay homage to Master."

Tang Sanzang smiled and said: "There is no need to be too polite, Fahai. In your previous life, you were the king of Mahoraka. Because of the insects in your body, you were very angry and aggressive, broke the precepts and flattered you, and was ordered by Amitabha Buddha to be reincarnated and re-educated."

"In this life, you have entered the Buddhist gate, with one heart upholding righteousness, subduing demons and demons, and helping the world. Now that your merits and virtues have been completed, I, the Buddha Tathagata, will send you as a teacher to guide you back to Lingshan, and you will be granted a great post."

Li Muhe said: "It's all thanks to the master's ten years of teaching, the disciple has today's blessings, there is no Zhantan Gongde Buddha in the south, there is no Shakya Tathagata Buddha in the south, and there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south."

Namo, pronounced "Nama", means refuge and respect.

Tang Sanzang said happily: "Amitabha, goodness is goodness, come with me!"

Just at this time, another ball of Buddha's light lit up, and two figures, one fat and one thin, appeared in the Buddha's light.

Then the Buddha's light turned into a golden cloud, dragging the two of them towards Tang Sanzang.

Before the person came near, a sharp and honest call came first.

"Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much."

"I haven't seen you for many years, how is Master?"

Li Mu looked intently, and a smile appeared on his face.

On the golden cloud, a monkey dressed in cassock and a purple gold crown with phoenix wings on its head, and a fat head with big ears, a pig head with a bare chest and a Buddhist monk's hat on its head, looked at Tang Sanzang with joy. .

Tang Sanzang also showed joy on his face, and said with a smile: "Wukong, Bajie, you are here too."

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie approached Tang Sanzang, and they exchanged pleasantries.

After the master and apprentice finished expressing their thoughts, Sun Wukong looked Li Mu up and down with great interest, and said with a smile, "Master, who is this?"

Tang Sanzang said: "I will introduce to you as a teacher. This is Fa Hai. He is a closed disciple who was accepted by the teacher more than 30 years ago. In his previous life, he was the king of Mahuraka among the eight tribes."

"Now that his merits and virtues have been completed, the Tathagata Buddha sent him as a teacher to guide him back to Lingshan, and he was granted a great post."

After Tang Sanzang finished speaking, Li Muhe bowed to Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie and said: "Disciple Fa Hai, I have met the senior brother and the second senior brother."

A golden light flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes, and he looked at Li Mu with great interest and said, "You are King Mahuraka? My old grandson knows you."

"I heard that you have great supernatural powers and are very aggressive. If you have a chance, we brothers and sisters will learn from each other."

Li Mu laughed, and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, compared to senior brother you who defeated the Buddha, my younger brother is still far behind, but senior senior brother has a destiny, my younger brother will definitely not spoil your interest."

Hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately broke his pretentious pretense, and his original human appearance changed back to that of a monkey, dancing happily: "Okay, my junior brother is very suitable for my old grandson's temper, you are my senior brother!" Sun admits it."

Zhu Bajie also grinned with a long pig's mouth and said: "Old pig also heard that you are not only aggressive, but also delicious, hehe, come to my Jingtan Temple if you have time, I have nothing else, just worship in all directions Useless."

Li Mu smiled even wider, and he was not polite to Zhu Bajie, he said with a smile: "Second senior brother gave me face, and the younger brother has to carry it around. When I go to see the Buddha, the younger brother will visit the senior brother and the second senior brother."

Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks happily, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, since that's the case, then Bajie and I will wait for you at the Mount Emei Dojo, you have to come quickly."

Tang Sanzang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and laughed and scolded: "You two are a scumbag, Fa Hai has re-cultivated the first life, and finally learned it well, you don't want to lead him into trouble again."

Zhu Bajie laughed and said: "Look at what Master said, how can it be?"

Li Mu also said: "Master, don't worry, this disciple will keep a good balance, and won't spoil the happiness of senior and second senior brothers, but won't ruin his own cultivation."

Tang Sanzang nodded slowly in satisfaction, and said: "That would be the best, Wukong, Bajie, you go back to your own ashram first, and take your younger brothers to Lingshan to meet the Buddha as a teacher."

"Okay, master, go slowly, junior brother remember to come to us!"

"Definitely come."

Li Mu sent a message to Bai Suzhen and the others, and immediately followed Tang Sanzang to Lingshan.

Bai Suzhen and his party who were waiting below saw that Li Mu left with Tang Sanzang, they couldn't help but panic, a feeling of being abandoned came to mind.

At this moment, Li Mu's voice sounded in their ears, and they were immediately relieved.

"Wait here for a while. I will go to Lingshan to meet the Tathagata Buddha. I will be conferred a great post and will come to pick you up to my dojo after the matter is over."

……

Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple.

Tang Sanzang brought Li Mu down in front of the mountain gate. At this time, he had put on cassock and Pilu hat, and followed Tang Sanzang to the mountain gate.

Seeing Tang Sanzang, the four great kings guarding the mountain gate clasped their palms together and proclaimed, "Namo Zhantan Buddha."

Tang Sanzang also proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Namo Amitabha."

Many people confuse the Four Heavenly Kings with the Four King Kongs, and some people think they are the same people.

This is true in orthodox mythology, but in the prehistoric world, these are actually two groups of people.

The four heavenly kings are the guardians of the Heavenly Court and the Gate of Heaven, namely, Mo Lihai, the heavenly king of holding the country in the east, Mo Liqing, the king of growth in the south, Mo Lishou, the king of wide eyes in the west, and Mo Lihong, the heavenly king of many stories in the north.

The Four Great Vajras are the guardians of the mountain gate of Daleiyin Temple.

After Tang Sanzang and the Four Great Vajras met the ceremony, the leader of the Podharma Vajra looked at Li Mu with a smile, and said, "King Mahuraka's merits and virtues have been completed, and he has achieved a true fruit. Congratulations."

Li Muhe said: "Thank you King Kong, but the poor monk is now Fahai, a direct disciple of Zhantan Gongde Buddha, and he is no longer King Mahuraka, and there is no Amitabha in the south."

The Four Vajras also proclaimed in unison: "It's good, it's good."

After finishing speaking, there was no delay, and the news of Tang Sanzang's return from Fahai was reported to Daleiyin Temple layer by layer. Only after the Tathagata's decree was issued in the temple did the master and apprentice go up the mountain.

Entering the Daxiong Palace, Tang Sanzang handed over the decree to Tathagata, and went back to his place.

Li Mu stood alone in the center of the hall, facing Tathagata's six-foot-long golden body, bowed down and said: "Disciple Fa Hai, pay homage to my Buddha Tathagata."

Tathagata smiled and nodded and said: "Fa Hai, following the teachings of Amitabha Buddha, you were reincarnated in the Eastern Land and recultivated the first life. Now you are happy to take refuge and uphold my blessings, and you have achieved great results."

"Now that you have been promoted to a great position, you are the Bodhisattva of the Great Wei Tianlong Mingwang, and you are still in charge of the Mahurakas. You can open a Taoist temple in Tianmu Mountain."

If the Tathagata enshrines the Buddha, this message will immediately spread throughout the three realms and six realms, and all the Buddhas will proclaim in unison: "Namo Dawei Tianlong Mingwang Bodhisattva."

Li Mu is still very satisfied with this fruit status, this is not the Bodhisattva with the mixed name of the Eight Heavenly Dragon Guangli Bodhisattva of Little White Dragon Aolie, but the Bodhisattva who has the fruit status of King Ming.

The sixth member of the eight tribes, the leader of the Garuda group, the King of Garuda, the golden-winged roc, is the Dapeng Mingwang Bodhisattva.

Li Mu was also very satisfied with the ashram designated by Tathagata for him.

Because Tianmu Mountain is in Hangzhou, it can be said that this is the place where he started. The foundation of believers is very good, and it is not far from Jinshan Temple.

Li Mu kowtowed his head to express his gratitude, and greeted all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas one by one. After exchanging greetings with his third senior brother Sha Wujing, he said goodbye to the Tathagata and his master, left Lingshan, and headed back to Zhanbuzhou in the south.

After returning to Tianmu Mountain in Hangzhou, Li Mu opened a cave in the depths of the mountain by virtue of the law of earth and spirit, no less than the size of Jinshan Temple.

Then he went to Jinshan Temple and took Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, Xiaoxue, Xiangzuo, Xiangyou, Zhizhu and others to Tianmu Mountain.

After they settled down and got familiar with the environment, Li Mu took them to the Monkey King's dojo on Mount Emei.
