Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "You mean that all the countries in the Western Regions regard the Eight Tribes as their guardian gods, and the guardian gods in different countries are also different?"

He Gu thought for a while, and then said: "I was born in the Central Plains, so I don't know much about the Western Regions. It's just that we ghosts have a custom that children under ten years old go to Chaowu Peak every year to receive The enlightenment of ghost elders. For five days every year, children from four to ten years old in the clan will gather at Chaowu Peak. Ghost elders will tell us the stories of our ancestors, and tell us the story of the python The legend, it's just that not everyone remembers it."

"Brother He Gu still remembers some?"

He Gu said: "But sometimes I heard my father talk about it later, so I know more about it."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Did the old ghost say that the big python god you worship is the eight guardians of the Great Heart Sect?"

He Gu nodded and said: "That's true. Our ancestors are said to have believed in the Great Heart Sect. However, after they came to Middle-earth, Middle-earth had its own Buddhism. If the Buddhist sect knows, it will cause big trouble." After a pause, he said slowly: "So our ancestors have never dared to disclose the truth that they are Buddhists of the Xin sect, but only worshiped their own Dharma-protecting gods in private. That's all."

Chu Huan leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Then do you know Jiamo Kingdom?"

He Gu was taken aback, seemed a little surprised, and asked back: "Dake knows Jiamo Kingdom?"

Hearing Hegu's tone, Chu Huan seemed to really know the Jiamo Kingdom quite well, and he frowned, and said, "So, Brother Hegu really knows the existence of the Jiamo Kingdom?" The tone was gentle: "Can you Tell me what you know about the Jiamo Kingdom?"

Seeing Chu Huan's expression of interest, He Gu thought for a while before saying, "As far as I know, the Kingdom of Jiamo no longer exists. A long time ago, the Kingdom of Jiamo was renamed the Kingdom of Futuo...!"

"Buddha Kingdom?"

"In the words of the Central Plains, it means the Kingdom of Buddha." He Gu explained: "When our ancestors left the Western Regions and came to the Central Plains, the Kingdom of Jiamo had already become the Kingdom of Buddha, and the capital of the Kingdom of Buddha was also renamed Ge Mara City, that is the holy land of the Heart Sect, the Buddha Hall of the Great Heart Sect, is said to be in Gemara City.” Apparently worried that Chu Huan would not understand, he explained again: “Gamala City, in the words of the Central Plains, is just It's called Lotus City!"

"Lotus City?" Chu Huan was taken aback.

He Gu nodded and said: "I heard from my father before that the Great Heart Sect first came from Tianzhu, and the Buddhists from Tianzhu went to the Western Regions to spread Buddhism. He even harmed the Buddhist disciples of Xinzong, so many people died.” After a pause, he said: “Father said that it was the time when the Buddhists in the Western Regions were in trouble, and countless Buddhist disciples left their homes and fled to the Kingdom of Jiamo, because at that time there were many Buddhists in the Western Regions. Among the kings, the king of the Jiamo Kingdom is the only king who believes in the Xinzong, the Jiamo Kingdom is located in a remote place, and the country is very poor and weak, but at the most critical time, it still took in the fleeing Xinzong Buddhists."

The first time Chu Huan heard the name of the Kingdom of Jiamo, it was from Luo Duo. He Gu said that it was not much different from what Luo Duo said.

"Then do you know about Buddha Sect Tianlong?" Chu Huan asked, staring at He Gu.

He Gu's face suddenly showed awe, and said: "So Dake has also heard of the Buddhist sect Tianlong? My father said that because Jiamo Kingdom has taken in a large number of Buddhist disciples, the country's population is increasing. Many wise men helped King Gamo to govern the kingdom together, and the Kingdom of Gamo gradually became stronger, which made many people feel uneasy, so in the end, many countries formed an alliance to attack the Kingdom of Gamo. Although the Kingdom of Gamo became stronger , but in the face of a huge enemy, outnumbered, at the most critical time, the Buddha Sect Heavenly Dragon descended from the sky, it is said that he is the Heavenly Dragon sent by Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva, incarnate in human form, and appeared riding a divine bird...!"

Chu Huan was concentrating, thinking that it seemed that this unimaginable scene really happened in the Kingdom of Jiamo back then. He Gu was born in the Central Plains. These people have been passed down in the Central Plains for several generations, but they still have a good understanding of this past event. , there is no doubt that this is an unforgettable past event for people in the Western Regions, which has been passed down from generation to generation.

"The god descended to earth, and that's when everyone knew that Peacock King Bodhisattva has boundless power." He Gu said in awe, "So since then, many countries in the Western Regions have started to believe in the Heart Sect, and they have also found their own Dharma-protecting gods...."

"Then do you know what happened to that Buddha Sect Tianlong?" Chu Huan asked.

He Gu shook his head, "I also asked, but father didn't know what happened afterwards, he just knew that after the death of King Jiamo, there would be no new king, and the Kingdom of Jiamo became the Kingdom of Futuo, and the Kingdom of Jiamo The capital of the city was also renamed Kamala City."

Chu Huan pondered for a while, and finally asked: "Then have you ever heard a strange sentence?"

"What?"

"Six dragons gather troops, the Bodhisattva opens the door!"

He Gu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've never heard this sentence before, Dake, where did this word come from?"

"It's not important." Chu Huan shook his head. In fact, he also knew that the possibility of He Gu knowing what he said was extremely small. The divine bird descended to earth, did the ghost master ever tell you what the divine bird looked like?"

He Gu shook his head and said: "That happened a long time ago, and my father only heard about it from his ancestors. None of us know what the divine bird looks like."

Chu Huan slightly nodded, and said: "The Buddha Kingdom has no king, so who will manage such a huge country? Although all the countries in the Western Regions have converted to the Great Heart Sect, they still have kings after all. They can still govern the country, but the floating The Tuo Kingdom is not a small country, no matter what, there are tens of millions of people, in addition to believing in Buddhism, they also eat and drink, and without a king, who will govern them?"

He Gu smiled and said: "Although there is no king, there is still a holy king in the Buddha Kingdom."

Chu Huan thought it was true. It seems that the Holy King is not an unknown secret in the Western Regions. After all, the Buddha Kingdom is a big country in the Western Regions. According to what Luo Duo said at the beginning, although the Holy King also has influence on the Buddhist sect, the most important work is , but to govern the country.

"Since the holy king governs the country, isn't he the same as the king?" Chu Huan pretended to be puzzled: "Is there any difference between the two?"

Seeing that the high-ranking King of Chu was asking him for advice, He Gu was somewhat proud of himself, and immediately said: "Of course there is a difference. In the Jiamo Kingdom, the old king passed the throne to his children, but The Holy King is different...!"

"Did the Holy King be chosen?" Chu Huan asked in surprise.

After all, in this era, there is no democratic election at all.

He Gu nodded, and said solemnly: "Dake is right. According to what my father said, the sage kings of the Xinzong were indeed selected...!" Seemingly understanding Chu Huan's doubts, he explained: "But The Holy King is not selected by the members of the Heart Sect, but... chosen by the Buddha Mother!"

"Mother Buddha?" Chu Huan was taken aback.

He Gu's expression was even more solemn, and he said: "Dake knows the Great Heart Sect, so he naturally knows Peacock King Bodhisattva, and Peacock King Bodhisattva is the Buddha's mother."

Chu Huan nodded slightly. He was quite clear about the story of Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva. He had a lot of contact with the people of Xinzong, and he already knew that the highest god worshiped by Xinzong was Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva. In my heart, there is a supreme position.

It’s just that he has doubts in his heart at this time. Although the Buddhists of Xinzong believe in Peacock King Bodhisattva, in the final analysis, Peacock King Bodhisattva is just an illusory god, but a spiritual belief. How to choose the holy king?

"Then does Dake know that Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva has a physical body in the world?" He Gu asked.

Chu Huan suddenly understood what was happening, and asked, "You mean to say that Bodhisattva Peacock King Ming has a physical body in the human world?"

He Gu nodded and said: "Father said so. The Buddha Hall in Gemara City is the holy temple of Xinzong, where the Buddha Mother and the Holy King are located.... The body of the Buddha Mother has always been in the Buddha Inside the hall, Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva incarnates in human form, guards the temple, protects the Xinzong and the Buddhist disciples of the Xinzong, and the eight tribes are all Mingwang Bodhisattva's subordinates."

Chu Huan was a little surprised. Although he already knew the existence of the Holy King, the Eight Tribes and even the Sixteen Arhats, no one had ever told that the Peacock King Bodhisattva had a physical body in this world, and it was Luo Duo. There has never been any mention of the physical body of Peacock King Ming Bodhisattva.

"Brother He Gu, do you know how Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva chooses the holy king?" Chu Huan asked softly with a solemn expression.

He Gu also looked solemn, and said: "The Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva wants to inherit the body, so he will choose a man to be her spouse, so that the body can be passed on forever."

Chu Huan understood in an instant, and said in surprise, "You mean, the holy king...the holy king is the wife of the Buddha...the husband of the mother of the Buddha?"

His surprise was quite significant. After all, in his opinion, the physical body of Peacock Mingwang Bodhisattva, even though his status is high, is still a member of the Buddhist sect. Chu Huan has always felt that all the disciples of the Buddhist sect are empty. will exist.

But now I know that the Buddhist mother of Xinzong is different. She can find a spouse and give birth to offspring. According to what He Gu said, the child born by the Buddhist mother is the new Buddha mother's body, and she also has the ability to inherit the Buddha mother. duties and rights of name.

He Gu nodded and said, "This is what Elder Gui once told us, and I still remember it. The spouse chosen by the Buddha's mother is the Holy King, and the Buddha's mother gave the Holy King the power to manage the country."

Chu Huan's face was horrified at this time, but he suddenly thought of something at this time.

As far as he knew, when the Holy King came to the Central Plains to search for the dragon relic, he brought his pregnant wife with him. Later, on the day the child was born, he was rounded up by the Shenyi Guards led by Xuanyuan Pingzhang. Among them, Chu Huan still doesn't know what the final outcome of the child just born by the Holy King will be.

If what He Gu said is true, then the person who died in the fire with the Holy King suddenly had the supreme Buddha Mother of the Great Heart Sect.
