This is the best of life This is an era, but it is not an era in which ordinary people can live and work in peace.

He traveled red on the mainland, which is a different scene from his travels 3000 years later.

He has seen demons destroy the Taoism that has been carried on for many years for mortals, he has seen mortals willingly be burned by fire for the sake of demons, he has seen resentful ghosts devour a village for Taoism, and he has seen demons and villages live in peace and do not invade each other , He has also seen Taoist gods fall into the devil's way for demons, and he has also seen Buddhist monks who were tortured by bone scraping in order to return to secular life.

Along the way, there were too many, and he felt more and more that, whether it is a demon, a human, or a god or Buddha, it is no different in the end, all have love and righteousness, flesh and blood, and they can cry, laugh, kill in anger, and be out of love give up all.

He began to doubt whether the Buddhist scriptures he had studied were correct or not. If Buddhism is merciful, why the world is like a sea of ​​suffering, but the Buddha can't see it.It is always said that all living beings are equal, mortals kill people, and if they make a golden body to form a good relationship, the next life will still be full of beautiful flowers and flowers; monsters and ghosts are like this, but they are beaten and killed by self-cultivating monks without a place to die.

He couldn't figure it out, so he traveled as usual.

One day, when he came to a city, it was very lively, so he squeezed in to have a look, and after a while he understood what happened.

It turns out that this place is no different from other places, except that the city lord is a monster.

Because the city lord is a monster, there are many monsters in this city, and those who can't control their appetites will eat a few people from time to time. The same crime will be punished, that is, the murderer will always kill him.

Today is for this reason. A hunter on the mountain saw a litter of wild boars. Although he was worried that his family would starve to death if he caught a monster, he brought them back to cook. After knowing that it was the monster clan, the Orion was arrested and tried today, just in time for Ji Kong to see him.

This place of judgment is also strange, it is not in the yamen but in the busy city.

Orion is still pleading, he is not asking himself to have a way to survive, he has an old mother and two young sons in his family, he only wants to raise the eldest son until he can support the family before he is sentenced to be married to the wild boar.

The monster city lord sitting in the high hall ignored him, and pronounced the sentence: "Wang Xi is sentenced to death, and the corpse is left for the wild boar couple."

Wang Xi was the Orion, he stayed where he was, weeping.

Jikong sighed, he was no longer the one who wanted to kill monsters and ghosts when he saw them. He kept asking himself these days, what is good and evil, and this is the case. In order to keep his family alive, Orion is doing good and killing Killing monster cubs is evil for monsters.

One thing is divided into two kinds of good and evil because of its different places, so he sighed.

So he walked through the crowd, and the crowd separated automatically. He said to the monster castellan on the high seat: "Let me ask you something."

The monster city lord smiled and said, "Please tell me."

"If a monster ate the Son of Man today, what would be the sentence?"

The monster city lord laughed and said: "I thought you were going to ask something. What's so difficult about it? One monster eats people and turns them into food for people, and one person eats monsters and turns people into food for monsters."

Ji Kong looked innocent: "According to what you said, if humans and monsters don't eat each other, but only eat fish and insects, wouldn't it mean that people and monsters are eaten by fish and insects? Moreover, if there is a monster stronger than you, you can't catch it." He, how should he be punished? Furthermore, if a demon or a person is eaten, and he has no relatives, and the person who killed him is sentenced to others and the demon divides the food, then the dead will die in vain, and those who are watching the punishment will be in vain. "

The monster city master was at a loss for words, and when he came back to his senses, Jikong had disappeared.

Ji Kong still travels, but he has one more thing, which is to ask about the good and evil of one person eating monsters and one monster eating people.

The creatures along the way, no matter ghosts, goblins, mortal demons, or gods and Buddhas, were asked by him one by one as long as they saw them.

Many monsters say that it is evil for people to eat monsters, and it is good for monsters to eat people; there are also monsters who think that people eat everything, and it is right for monsters to eat people, and it is the way of reincarnation; only a few monsters think that people eat monsters, and monsters eat people Too general, if people eat monsters for survival, there is no evil or good, and it is the same if monsters eat people.

The concept of ghosts and demons is almost the same as that of demons, perhaps because they are looked down upon by the other three realms, and they resonate at this time.

In addition, in the remaining three realms, except for the monsters who were arrested by immortals and Buddhas to serve as mounts, they all agreed that it is evil for monsters to eat people, and it is also evil for monsters to eat people for their sons.

Ji Kong didn't say much, and left after asking. What's the answer? It's just that he is in a different place.

He asked about the evolution from people eating monsters and monsters eating people to what is valuable and what is cheap in the world, whether to do good or evil, should you stick to your heart?

Another 30 years later, he returned to Qingwei Mountain. There were too many suffering mortals gathered near Qingwei Mountain. The ruined temple where he originally lived had been occupied, so he sat down on the Qingwei Mountain cliff and remained motionless.

For another fifty years, the villagers at the foot of Mount Wei in the Qing Dynasty thought that the man on the cliff had died.One day, the sound of gold and stone suddenly resounded.

"What is good? What is evil?"

"The heart is doing good, the heart is doing evil, there is no good and no evil."

"Buddha has two sides, he uses kindness to save people, and uses evil to destroy evil."

"Evil is not evil, good is not good. Evil is not good, good is not evil. I wish that the world will be perfect, that there will be no ghosts in hell, and animals without scales. However, I also call all living beings equal. How can they be equal? How can there be equality. Right and wrong, right and wrong, good and evil thoughts, everything is empty."

Violet lightning strikes in the void, one after another, until later it has been densely integrated into the power grid, all the monsters on the Qingwei Mountain are looking for places to hide, and the villagers in the Qingwei Mountain are shutting their doors and chanting Amitabha Buddha.

These are all Jikong's heartfelt words, but they coincide with part of the Dao, so that every word and sentence attracts thunder.

A stick of incense, an hour, a day, a month later, Zilei finally stopped, Qing Ulsan was still the same, the green clothes on the cliff were still there, and there was not even a trace of dust.

All the monsters on the mountain came out, and for a while, the birds and beasts roared, and it was very lively. The villagers at the foot of the mountain walked out of the house and kowtowed to the green shirts on the edge of the cliff as if they were gods.

He got up.

In the morning, he treated the villagers at the bottom of the mountain, regardless of wind, cold and tuberculosis; in the evening, he preached to the monsters on the cliff, and if there were villagers sitting on the cliff to listen, he would not drive them away.

At that time, it wasn't that the villagers didn't want to go up to the mountain to listen to the dharma, it was actually that the monster race on the mountain had long had grievances with the mortals, even though they didn't want to hurt others in front of Jikong, and they didn't want to be in the same place, how could mere mortals compare to those who had practiced Taoism for a long time? The monster clan, the bottom line of the monster clan is already under the cliff at the foot of Ul Mountain.

In this way, the villagers at the foot of the mountain got along with the monsters on the mountain quite happily.

After going for decades, the mountains do not know how old they are.

One day, when Jikong was teaching the Dharma, his face suddenly turned pale, his lips turned blue, and his heart felt like a knife was being twisted, it was a whim.

After a while, he felt better. He was about to leave when a big eagle blocked his way. He smiled slightly, stroked the feathers on the big eagle's wings, and said, "I'm afraid something might happen to my apprentice. Why don't I go? Wait a minute." I’ll come back to teach the Fa in a few days.”

The big eagle still refused to move away, he smiled again and let himself be caught under the eagle's claws.

There is a saying that when the clear and turbid air of heaven and earth intersects, it turns into a bird to become a phoenix. The phoenix gave birth to a peacock, and the peacock gave birth to a big eagle. The phoenix family is extremely proud, and so is the big eagle.

From its point of view, Jikong can barely enter its eyes, and everything else is dirty if you want it to hold it under its claws.

Under the deduction of Jikong, one eagle and one person went straight to the north.

Three days later, the big eagle loosened its claws, and went back and forth with a whistling sound.

When Jikong fell, it happened to smash a hole in the roof of a house and landed in the house. There was no one in the house. The window was opened on "Mo Junzi", and the black petals revealed a few streaks of light.

He walked over and swept "Mr. Mo" on the ground, even the pots and flowers shattered. In the room, there was an extra layer of quilt on the bed, and a big bag bulged under the quilt.

He walked to the bed and lifted the quilt, revealing a face shaped like a skeleton, with a piece of thousand-year-old ginseng in his mouth, it was Huai Zhen who was dying.

Although Jikong had a whim, he didn't expect that Huaizhen was in such a critical situation that he had to rely on thousand-year-old ginseng to hang his life, and there was no way out for a while.

After thinking for a while, Jikong carried Huaizhen on his shoulders, jumped out of the window and ran towards the palace, just in time the waiter from this building saw it, hurriedly told the shopkeeper, and went upstairs to check.

Xu Qingqing was on the way back at this time, her heart was full of joy, even using spells was two points easier than usual, she was very grateful that she had spent 300 years reading all the books in the demon world to find that mysterious place, even though she paid She paid the price, but it was insignificant, she didn't regret it, even if she did it all over again, she would do it again.

It's a pity that after returning to Yueyan Building, all the joy in her heart turned into bloodthirsty, the cyan snake scales on her forehead were faintly visible, and her black eyes turned into snake pupils, leaving only a deep red, which was extremely scary.Both legs turned into snake tails at the same time, unable to control the whipping, he was about to hit the wall.

Everything is just for the person she hid in the quilt is gone.

From nowhere came the voice of reciting the Shurangama Sutra, word by word, word by word, the voice became louder and louder, as if it was reciting right next to her ear.

Her face changed, the snake letter hissed out, she smashed a big hole in the wall with the tail of the snake, and went straight to the northern palace. The guards in the palace naturally wanted to stop him when they saw such a monster, but it's a pity that Xu Qingqing's opponent .

The sound of chanting Buddha became louder and louder, like thunder, which made her even more unbearable. She couldn't even wait for a short breath to swallow the ants that blocked her. She swept away and went straight to the deepest part of the palace courtyard.

Not long after the founding of the Yan Kingdom, it is only a small country, and the imperial palace is even smaller, but the architecture is not perfunctory at all. In the setting sun, the glazed tiles reflect colorful light. A man in a green shirt with black hair and shoulders is sitting cross-legged, forming a lotus print, and muttering in his mouth. , "The Shurangama Sutra" scriptures appeared continuously, turning into big golden characters in the air and hitting Xu Qingqing, who was half human and half snake.

Hiding around is really annoying, Xu Qingqing has always been arrogant, suddenly became angry, flicked the snake's tail and rolled Ji Kong to the front, the snake's pupils were red and sticky, and there was no trace of anything, and suddenly moved closer, the mouth opened slightly, Showing its pointed teeth, the snake letter spat out, and the tip of its forked tongue swept across Jikong's face.
