Too much fruit

Chapter 524: What does it mean, Buddha is the Tao?

"Not on this shore, not on the other shore, not in the middle of the stream... If you have a mind, you are there, if you don't have a mind, you are everywhere. Return to its original nature, that is, there is no opposite, and it is inclusive and unified."

Zhenru layman pointed out the meaning of Jiang Li's words and sighed: "The donor has a good Buddha nature, but it is a pity that he does not want to enter my Buddhist door."

The so-called Tathagata is as it is, and what is important is to see the true nature of oneself. If Jiang Li reaches the end of his words, he may not be unable to reach the highest state of Buddhist cultivation.

Although he did not fully accept the Dharma Eye Store of Zhenru Layman, he also understood the profound Buddhist principles from it. For such a person, Zhenru Layman wanted to give him a stick, knock him out directly, and make him become a Buddha.

"What a pity." Zhenru layman said with great regret.

'It's a pity for me too. '

Jiang Li looked at the three things on the stone table with regret.

He went against his childhood ideals and could no longer become the Monkey King.

These three Tao fruits are inconsistent with the Tao that Jiang Li followed. The four monkeys in the world do not enter the world, humans, gods and ghosts, and they are not counted as feathers and feathers. Their Tao fruits belong to the category of monsters and monsters, and may also be related to monsters. If there is some relationship between attributes, Fighting and Defeating Buddha is 100% Buddha attribute. No matter how you calculate it, it has nothing to do with Jiang Li's way of human and god.

If he chooses to be the Monkey King, those who were promoted in the past will also lose their power due to changing paths, which is equivalent to giving up the Flame Emperor Dao Fruit.

How could the Tao Fruit, which represents the ancestor of humanity, be accommodated by non-human beings?

Not to mention there are pitfalls in the golden hoop.

Therefore, this childhood concept can only be reluctantly given up.

'It's such a pity that I just lack the fourth-grade Taoist fruit. Jiang Li sighed in his heart.

The third and second grades have already been obtained. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the promoted Flame Emperor Daoguo. If something unexpected happens, they are still far away from the third grade, so there is no rush.

Only these four grades are the grades that will be promoted next, and since Jiang Li is now in an increasingly dangerous situation, the first thing to consider when choosing Daoguo is combat power. For a Daoguo like Monkey King who dominates with his combat power, that is really the best choice.

Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with Jiang Li.

My heart was in a state of ups and downs for a while, but soon I regained my composure.

Disagreement means no fate. Since there is no fate, no matter how much you regret it, it is useless. It is better to focus on your feet and take the current path.

Jiang Li stood up and saluted: "This is Jiang's favor as a layman. If there is an assignment in the future, Jiang will try his best to help."

Although layman Zhenru wanted to save Jiang Li and become a monk, he did not engage in forced buying or selling, and he would not just say "the donor is destined to be a Buddhist" and just put a sack in a sack to rob someone. In fact, layman Zhenru even gave a big gift to Jiang Li. This favor must be recognized after all.

Jiang Li didn't dare to say that Yongquan would repay him, but if he had the ability in the future, he would do his best to help.

"The deceiver will accept the favor."

Zhenru layman was not pretentious, he accepted the favor calmly, and then said: "The benefactor's Zhuangzi Dao Fruit is still in the hands of the bewitched, and I can still borrow it from the bewitched for three years. After three years, the benefactor should also have the strength to carry the Dao Fruit." , at that time, the lost person will return this fruit with both hands."

Three years!

Jiang Li's heart moved.

According to the promotion speed, in three years' time, it will be at least the fourth grade. Only then can it bear the Zhuangzi Dao Fruit. Then the grade of this Dao Fruit is 80% of the third grade.

I don’t know what the real layman is doing with this Tao Fruit. His Buddha-like Tao Fruit should be incompatible with Zhuangzi’s Tao Fruit. Even if it exists in the form of a Taoist utensil, it is difficult to exert its power.

However, since Master Zhenru was willing to give it, Jiang Li was naturally not polite and agreed immediately, then said "please" and left the stone pavilion.

The familiar aura of decay and decay swept over him again, but when it touched his body, he was isolated. Jiang Li was completely unaffected by the evil aura of the five turbidities, and in a few steps, he disappeared into the black mist. In the stone pavilion, Huineng watched Jiang Li go away, his lips squirmed slightly, and finally couldn't help but said: "Buddhist country needs such talents, why..."

"A melon that is twisted by force is not sweet, let alone, it may not be able to be twisted."

Zhenru layman said calmly, glanced in the direction of Wushan, and a starry sky-like spectacle flashed in his eyes, "One person can inherit the karma of the three clans, so long as he can accept it. If he cannot accept it, there is no need to force it."

After all, there is still a strong person from the Feng family on Wushan Mountain.

Despite the intense fighting over there now, if you really want to take action, the Great Master can still take action.

After all, Ji Jiji's incarnation has been destroyed. Now it is not Ji Jiji who is dragging the Great Master, but the Great Master dragging Ji Jiji.

Having said this, Master Zhenru paused, then looked at the three things on the stone table, "Let's go and find a new owner for this golden hoop. In three years, or at most three years, the obsessed person will be promoted."

"At that time, the Lost Ones will fight Li Boyang again, and regardless of success or failure, the Buddhist Kingdom will be cleansed. We still need to take precautions and find backbone people to shoulder the important tasks."

"Is there anyone else?" Huineng was a little curious.

The person who can carry this fruit is not just an ordinary person. I thought that Jiang Li was the only candidate, but I didn't expect that there were alternatives.

"Naturally there is."

Zhenru layman put his hand on the long golden cudgel, "I came here this time because the golden cudgel has a sense."

The long stick with an unattractive appearance was glowing with a golden light that flickered on and off at the moment. The stick's body showed traces of dragon patterns, phoenix seals, and patterns of stars.

At this time, the golden cudgel finally showed its extraordinary appearance.

"Good at listening to sounds, able to discern, know the front and back, everything is clear, and the mind is one and the same. It can even be called the two minds of the practitioner. Compared with Jiang Don, this person is actually more closely related to this path and fruit. Fit.”

Just like the layman named one without any hesitation: "Six-eared macaque."

As soon as the words fell, Master Zhenru waved his hand gently, and the stone pavilion gradually disappeared, taking the two people in the pavilion with him and disappearing.

'Disappeared. '

In the midst of the five turbid and evil odors, Jiang Li stopped and said, "You can still move freely within the five turbid and evil odors. Is this the magical power of Taoism or some other secret method?" '

'Also, this is really like the Buddhist Dharma of a layman...'

Jiang Li carefully sensed the endlessly rotating, Tai Chi-like form in the sea of ​​consciousness. At the same time, with a thought, a pure land-like shadow appeared.

'It actually fits so well with the Demonic Sword Code. '

Although he had only accepted the teachings and had not yet fully integrated them and integrated all the understandings, Jiang Li could already detect that the method of the Demonic Sword Code was very consistent with the Buddhist practice of Zhenru layman, as if they were from the same source.

The Demonic Sword Code is quite similar to Zhuang Zhou Daoguo's [Extrapsychic Materialization] magical power, and is often used by Jiang Li.

After the three-party contact, Jiang Li actually discovered that the method taught by Zhenru layman was consistent with what he had learned, and was also connected with the Tao and Fruit.

Is Buddha the Tao?
