Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 400 Confessions are lenient; the poor monk wants to put the hoop on his head
Former Buddha.

Upharatha Buddha.

It's no wonder that the Great Sage doubted him, mainly because along the way, this former Buddha, who has passed away, has indeed done a lot of things, and he has a very high sense of presence among Tang Seng and his disciples.

Therefore, when the Great Sage heard that it was an old monk giving advice, he subconsciously thought of this Buddha.

"Probably not this time." Bajie stood aside and said, "Master said that Uparatha Buddha passed away more than 200 years ago, and these three rhinoceros spirits were taught by an old monk about a thousand years ago. The shape time is not right."

"Wait a minute." Nezha said hastily: "The King of Summer Retreat just said that they were taught when they were young. Pushing forward 200 years, isn't it when they were young?"

"Wait for a while, everyone, I'll ask you to understand." Nezha said first, and then pinched the magic formula again, put his mind into the pagoda and was about to ask, but saw that the three monsters had calmed down, so he used Huntian Ling tied up the Summer Retreat King and let him out of the tower.

Just ask together in front of the big guys, and save yourself from passing the message.

Seeing that Nezha let the summer resort king out, everyone knew his intentions.

Nezha kicked the still dazed King Summer, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground, Nezha put the pointed gun around his neck, and said sharply: "Ask me again, what is the old monk doing?" When did it inspire you to practice? And when did it remind you to come here to pretend to be Buddha and collect offerings?"

"After you think about it." Nezha snorted coldly: "After you finish speaking, I will ask the two of them again. If there is a sentence that doesn't match. Hmph, you know what will happen!"

Nezha, a born evil star, just looks at a child's face, but when it comes to various cruel methods, he is even worse than the Great Sage and Erlang God.
The King of Summer Retreat is not afraid after hearing this, he has already begun to explain anyway, one more sentence or one less sentence does not make any difference to the King of Summer Retreat. They are just capturing their brothers this time, not for Master Sanzang to save them directly, obviously they did not intend to If he took the lives of his three brothers and honestly cooperated with the questioning and confessed everything he knew, maybe he could be punished lightly.

As for whether the old monk will be involved, the old monk has long since disappeared;

He was ready to confess and be lenient.

Thinking of this, the summer king said: "When our brother first met the old monk, he should have been around a hundred years old. We are now more than 400 years old. It is the old monk we met more than 300 years ago. .”

For monsters who live for thousands of years, a hundred years old is indeed a young age.

"It took about a hundred years for me to practice until I could transform into a form." The summer king didn't wait for Nezha to ask, but he answered the second question very consciously: "The old monk taught my three brothers supernatural powers. He knows that we are waiting for you. He loves crispy sesame oil, so he instructed me to wait in Jinping Prefecture to protect the people in the whole prefecture with good weather, in exchange for sesame oil offerings."

"So." Fa Hai asked, "The old monk just instructed you to protect the people?"

"Yes."

The Great Sage also asked, "Then the matter of pretending to be a Buddha is your own initiative?"

"Ah, here." The Summer Retreat King really wanted to leave this matter to the old monk, but he was attracted by the gazes of these people, especially when he met Master Sanzang's soul-penetrating gaze, he didn't dare to fake it , then bowed his head and said in a low voice: "It's not like I'm making my own claim. It was more than 200 years after I left the customs after cultivating supernatural powers, and now the old monk has disappeared a thousand years ago. I don't even know him There is no trace of him, but he still remembers what he told us back then, so he came to Jinping Mansion."

"But we are just fairies, how can we easily receive the crispy sesame oil offered by the human race?" The summer king explained: "Originally, I just wanted to pretend to be a mountain god. But this Tianzhu Buddhist sect is full of incense. How could it be said that the Buddhas came, and then I came to Jinping Mansion, and simply used the name of Buddha to deceive the prefect at that time, asking them to offer sesame oil every year, and we bless them with a bumper harvest, and they will always be safe and sound.”

"It's always been safe and sound?" Yang Jian said aside: "When the people of Jinping Mansion are short of offerings, don't you wait for the cholera season?"

"Well." Hearing this, the summer king finally knew where their brothers made a mistake, and this matter can't be blamed, it was indeed their fault.

At that time, if the Heavenly Court of Jinping Mansion didn't ask, and Lingshan didn't care, wouldn't it be their world?
But it was also because they were at the foot of the Lingshan Mountain, and they had been instructed by the old monk, so they didn't dare to go too far. Therefore, they had the chance to survive today.

However, it was limited to saving one life. As for how long he would be kept in the prison and what punishment he would receive, that was up to Zhenjun Erlang.

Master Sanzang couldn't help sighing, since Erlang Zhenjun became the God of Justice, he has become much more relaxed. He doesn't have to think about whether he should die if he catches a goblin like before, and he doesn't have to worry about those who made mistakes but didn't die. Goblins, can't get due and proper punishment.

These things are all headaches for Zhenjun Erlang now.

The whole story was basically clarified. Although he didn't think that the summer king was telling lies, Nezha brought up Bichen and Bihan together just in case, and didn't give them a chance to collude. Asked a lot.

Got the same answer.

After Nezha brought the three monsters into the Linglong Pagoda, the Great Sage said, "In other words, the old monk who taught them is probably the former Buddha, Upharatha Buddha."

"Regardless of whether the old monk is Upharatha Buddha or not, they have never been allowed to cause trouble here. It is a pity that after they cultivated supernatural powers, the old monk disappeared. Get it right."

Today's Fa Hai no longer thinks that monsters are inherently evil, especially after seeing the little fox in Wanku Mountain and the little pig demon in Langlang Mountain.

What is lacking is only the correct teaching, such as the seven grandsons of Jiuling Yuansheng, although they are demons, they do good deeds.

Fa Hai also kept this matter in mind for the time being, and after he was going to go to Lingshan, he asked the Buddha for clarification.

It is expected that even if it is not Upharata Buddha, it is also a high-ranking real Buddha in Buddhism. Otherwise, how could Lingshan allow three goblins to act in the name of Buddha in Jinping Mansion?
It's not too late, and it's not too late, and I can catch up with a bowl of hot Lantern Festival when I go home.

Zhenjun Erlang and others left one after another, and Nezha made an extra trip, first sending them to Guanjiangkou, and then returning to Chentangguan.

As for the Meishan brothers and the Caotou gods, they also cleaned up the goblins in the Xuanying Cave of Qinglong Mountain, and they are now pressing down on the little goblins to go back.

With Wujing's assistance, naturally no one should be caught, and no one who committed a crime will be wronged.

After Xiaobailong waited for the affairs in Jinping Mansion to be settled, he ate a bowl of Lantern Festival and went directly to Qinglong Mountain. It was his job to deal with the aftermath of the little demons here.

The division of labor between master and apprentice became more and more clear.

The master is in charge of the overall situation, the elder brother subdues demons and eliminates demons; the second elder brother buries the pot to make food; the younger brother Sha saves the souls of the dead and records the customs. And the little white dragon is naturally to educate the little demon.

Jinping Mansion tonight was originally doomed to have no sleep.

But when the Holy Mother was about to leave, she used the lotus lamp to soothe the hearts of the people and let them fall asleep.

Afterwards, a fairy had a dream and explained that the Three Demons pretended to be Buddhas to collect offerings. He also said that the Jinping Mansion would be fine in the future, as long as the government is still in good order and the people are harmonious, the weather will naturally be fine.

Because it was Erlang God, the famous true king of the Three Realms, who entered the dream in person, and the people of Jinping Mansion witnessed the three big rhinos appearing in mid-air at night, so naturally there is no doubt.

In the early morning of the second day, the government posted a notice stating that next year's Shangyuan Festival will still be held, and the golden lamp will still burn for three nights, but it will no longer contain [-] catties of crispy sesame oil. It is purchased with money from the government and does not need to be offered by the common people;

It is also said that the battle of the large lamp oil household in Mintian County will be permanently removed;
Besides, there is another temple called Jiangyao Temple. There are several halls in the temple, including the Erlang God, the Three Virgins, and Nezha. Of course, there is no other temple for the Xiaotiangou. Together with the Meishan brothers It fits in the Erlang Temple. Of course, Sanzang's master and apprentice are also indispensable, and the five people share one hall.

In fact, most of the people in Jinping Mansion didn't have any real feelings about these changes. It was more a matter of talking after dinner. But for the 240 large lamp oil households, it was completely different.

Without the [-] catties of offerings each year, their hard life is obviously coming to an end.

Therefore, I waited outside Ciyun Temple early in the morning, and thanked them face to face.

Apart from them, the magistrate of Jinping Prefecture and the magistrate of Mintian County also came to see Master Sanzang together with officials of all sizes. But when the gate of the temple was opened, they learned from the old master that Sanzang's master and apprentice had has gone.

As for when they left, they slept soundly last night and didn't hear any movement.

It was a bit unwilling to give up and chased to the west. After chasing for a hundred miles, but there was no trace of Sanzang's master and apprentice, so he gave up.

They went west, but of course they couldn't find Sanzang's master and apprentice, because they had already arrived at Xuanying Cave in Qinglong Mountain.

Obviously, along the way, Fahai had already foreseen the troubles of staying in Jinping Mansion. He was not bored with these entertainments, but he definitely didn't like them, so he avoided them as much as possible.

Besides, the little demons of this mountain are here, if they don't take care of themselves, they can't leave at ease.

These goblins are also ordinary goblins, such as mountain ox spirits, buffalo spirits, yellow ox spirits, etc., and there is nothing supernatural about them. However, there are quite a lot of ox spirits in Xizhou, except for the green ox spirit with one horn. Your Majesty, a group of bull spirits gathered in Jindou Mountain. Those elite bull spirits were actually under the command of the Bull Demon King of Jilei Mountain. Unfortunately, the whole army was wiped out in the battle of Huoyan Mountain.

Lingshan.

Returning to the Buddha in the Daxiong Hall, he looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva who rarely came, and asked, "Why did the Bodhisattva come to Lingshan today?"

"Amitabha Buddha." The Bodhisattva sat on the lotus platform, facing the Buddha, holding the jade bottle in one hand and the other in front of his chest, and replied: "I wanted to be reincarnated in the human world to endure kalpas, but I couldn't let go of the three thousand incarnations so I gave up. "

"Bodhisattva is merciful." The Buddha always believed that Lingshan's prosperity today is inseparable from the merciful and compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.He just didn't expect that even the bodhisattva would want to be reincarnated as a human being and go through calamities.

Although it was unexpected, the Tathagata Buddha is not incomprehensible. After all, even he himself wants to reincarnate. But right now, the Great Sage of the Demon World, who should have been his reincarnation opportunity, was too scared by the Jade Emperor to show his face.

In the past, the great sages of the Demon Realm would show up on their own initiative, but now the cracks in the Demon Realm have been banned. These variables are too big.

Although the Bodhisattva is bound by Lingshan, her great ambition is actually doomed not to act rashly in this matter.

Once she is reincarnated as a human being with a true spirit, the three thousand incarnations of Bodhisattvas walking in the Three Realms will all disappear.

And if you just reincarnate as an incarnation, there is no real effect of being a human being.

This is a multiple-choice question, whether to choose yourself or all sentient beings.

The Bodhisattva didn't have any entanglements, and chose the latter without any surprise.

But even a bodhisattva, after making such a choice, will inevitably have some turmoil in his state of mind. This time, he came to Lingshan. Firstly, he was discussing with the Buddha and meditating; secondly, Sanzang and his party were going to Lingshan. Be a witness.

The relationship between Bodhisattva and Tripitaka master and disciple is always unusual.

In the past when their master and apprentice encountered any difficulties, the monkey head always turned to his South China Sea, seeking help, but it seems that since Erlang Zhenjun took over the Judicial God, less came.

The last time we met was outside Miefa.

But different from the past, this time it was the Bodhisattva who was waiting for their master and disciples to come.

"Master Sanzang and his disciples have already passed through the Jinping Mansion, and they are now training those young bull spirits in Xuanying Cave." The Tathagata Buddha did not hesitate to share with the Bodhisattva about the recent situation of Master Sanzang and his disciples, and he took the initiative to say: "In such a scene, Did the Bodhisattva ever think of it when he went to the Tang Dynasty to enlighten him?"

"Never." Bodhisattva sighed: "Since he rescued Wukong from the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, the future things are not within the expectations of the poor monk. Otherwise, the golden hoop that the poor monk borrowed from fellow Taoist Ma Sui , and it’s not like it hasn’t been sent out yet.”

"Even when he burned down my Avalokitesvara Temple, and then designed a group of demons in the Black Wind Cave to save all the demon kings. The poor monk wanted to put the tight band on his head."

At this moment, there are only two people, the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, in the Daxiong Palace, and they speak more casually.

The Buddha on the side also said: "Actually, when Lingji Bodhisattva came to complain, I was also very surprised."

"Amitabha." The Bodhisattva sighed the Buddha's name. Of course, she knew about Lingji Bodhisattva. If Lingji Bodhisattva hadn't made a move at that time, it is not sure what the situation is now.

Let alone Lingji Bodhisattva, what if it is the Bodhisattva himself?

When he was in Gao Laozhuang, if he wanted to protect the canopy, would the barbarian monk give up?
Of course it won't be possible. At that time, both of them, master and apprentice, were even prepared to fight against Heaven again.
