Rebirth of the Great Desolation: I am Red Cloud

Chapter 228 Accepting and setting up barriers, Maitreya blocks the way

The Pure Land of the Western Heaven, the top of Xumi Ling Mountain.

Receiving the pinch seal, he was sitting quietly on the twelfth-grade golden lotus platform and meditating, when suddenly, he opened his eyes.

"Where is Maitreya?" Jieying had pain on his face, with a look of compassion, looking at the group of Buddha disciples sitting in two rows under the lotus platform.

"Here is the disciple." Maitreya stood up from the futon and walked straight to the reception.

"The golden cicada has now gathered four disciples, and is going to the central mother-in-law pure land to get my scriptures of the West Heaven. As a teacher, there is some cause and effect between his teacher and his disciples, and you need to do it on your behalf." Said to Miller.

"Disciple, but listen to Master's orders." Maitreya clasped his palms together in the utmost respect.

"So, just listen carefully..." Jieyin gave Maitreya some instructions.

"So, the disciple is gone." Maitreya listened to the instructions of the guide, took the treasure banner given by the guide, and went straight to the boundary of Zhan Buzhou in the south, except for the Pure Land of the Western Heaven.

……

Surrounded by mountains, a group of people are walking along the mountain stream on the valley path.

Suddenly, there was a whistling sound of wind piercing the sky, and he looked up, but saw a monkey in monk's clothing standing on a cloud in the sky, holding a golden stick, and jumped down from the cloud.

"Brother Monkey, Brother Monkey, is there any good place ahead? My old pig is almost going back into the womb from hunger, why are you so slow this time!" Seeing Wukong coming back, Bajie went up with a nine-foot nail rake on his shoulders. He grabbed Wukong's skirt and asked for a while.

"Go, go, go. You know it's pickled!" Wukong flicked his clothes and stuffed Bajie with a few pancakes, then ignored Bajie who was munching, and turned the golden cudgel into an embroidery needle, put it in his ear, Jumping to the front of the white dragon horse, looking at Tang Monk on the horseback, he cupped his hands and said: "Master, there is a temple in front of it, called Maitreya Temple, and the abbot of that temple is an eminent monk, and it will take half a day to get there."

While Wukong was speaking, he took out a few more pancakes from his pocket, handed them to Sanzang, and said, "Master, you fill your belly first, the host has already made the rice, I'll have a good meal when I arrive."

"Wukong has worked hard." Sanzang took the pancake, praised Wukong, and handed the pancake to Bajie, who immediately groaned and ate it.

It turned out that two years have passed since Xuanzang left Chang'an in the west, but now he has gathered four disciples, the journey to the west is much easier than before.It's just that he didn't know that the seven catastrophes of his mentor and apprentice had really begun.

"Brother Monkey, how much rice did you ask the host to make? If I, an old pig, don't get enough to eat, it's your fault!" Bajie ate the pancakes in three or five mouthfuls, and then chased after them.

Wukong went up to Bajie just a few times, and while the master and apprentice were chatting and frolicking, they had already reached the Maitreya courtyard.

Sanzang got off his horse and entered the courtyard, and saw the tall pagoda in Maitreya courtyard at a glance.

The pagoda is seven stories high, with engravings of ten thousand Buddhas' dynasties layer by layer, golden beads and colored pictures, and the whole pagoda is extremely holy and solemn.

As soon as Sanzang saw the pagoda, he put his palms together and recited the Buddha's name. Before eating, he went forward to sweep the pagoda.

Bajie kept screaming from hunger, and Fang wanted to eat before sweeping the pagoda, but Wukong couldn't help urging and threatening, so he had to accompany Sanzang with Drifting Monk and Wukong, and entered the pagoda under the leadership of Maitreya Academy.

As soon as Fang entered the pagoda, Sanzang and three disciples had just knelt down on the Daxiong Hall to pay homage to the Buddha. At this moment, they only heard a grand Buddha's chant, and then the golden light was released, and the scenery in the pagoda changed instantly.

The four masters and apprentices were in astonishment, when they heard a "bang", the tower door was actually closed.

At this time, the host also disappeared, and looking again, there was only a boundless sea.

"The sea of ​​karma is boundless, and the shore is the same when you look back."

Bajie looked at the boundless sea, grabbed Sanzang's skirt, and hurriedly begged.

Wukong let go of his fiery eyes, and after inspecting, he also felt that something was wrong, and said: "Master, this tower is weird, let's break through the tower door and go out first, then we will talk about it later."

Seeing that a pagoda had turned into a vast ocean, Sanzang had no choice but to say, "Then let's break open the temple gate first."

Before Sanzang could finish his words, Bajie's rake had already landed on the pagoda door, there was only a bang, sparks splashed everywhere, Bajie's tiger's mouth was shaken painfully, but the pagoda door did not move at all.

Seeing this, Wukong went up to test it himself, took out the golden cudgel from his ear, swayed it in the wind, changed it to the thickness of a bowl, and rushed straight to the pagoda gate. There was also a "bang", and the golden cudgel was bounced back , the pylon gate remained untouched.

Now Wukong, Bajie, and Sand Monk used their supernatural powers to bombard the pagoda gate continuously, but the pagoda gate remained unchanged.

Seeing that the tower door was solid, Wukong looked at the others and said, "Master, wait a moment, when I become smaller, go out and see if you can open the tower door from the outside."

Wukong turned into a mosquito, buzzed to find the crack in the door, searched for a long time in the middle of the door, but couldn't find a crack or a hole, the tower door was completely integrated, and there was no way to get through.

Wukong had no choice but to change back to his original shape again. He was about to resort to other methods to try to open the pagoda door, but at this moment he saw that the place where the boundless sea, sea and sky meet was shining with golden light. In the air, make a voice: "The Buddha is on the other side, the Buddha is in the western sky, the Buddha is in the heart, the Buddha is in all difficulties..., after passing this tower, you will reach the western sky. If you can't even pass through the world in the tower, and you How to get to the west, get the scriptures!"

After the Buddha said that, the golden light dissipated and disappeared in mid-air in an instant.

Seeing this, Sanzang immediately knelt down on the ground and kept chanting, "The Buddha manifested his holiness, and disciples must cross this tower."

Seeing that the Buddha disappeared suddenly, Wukong drove a somersault cloud and rushed straight to the sea to catch up. The sea suddenly surged with waves, and Wukong was stopped in an instant.

"With one heart and one effort, we have just crossed the Raksha Sea, otherwise we will stay in the pagoda forever!" A majestic Buddha's call came, and a wooden boat appeared by the sea.

Seeing this scene, Wukong still understood in his heart that some Buddha deliberately made things difficult for them, so he said immediately: "Master, I can only cross the sea with this wooden boat."

At that moment, the four masters and apprentices boarded the small boat, the sand monk rowed the oars, and the four masters and apprentices sailed to the other shore.

The boat sailed in the sea for two days, but still couldn't see the coast. The stomachs of the master and apprentice were already empty, and Ba Jie was so hungry that he was almost dizzy.

"Master, if this goes on like this, you won't be able to reach the other shore, and your disciples will all starve to death." Bajie chattered endlessly, calling out to Sanzang, "Since there is no food, why don't you open a meat meal and eat some aquatic products, so that you can cross the sea. Let’s cultivate Buddha again and make amends.”

After Bajie said that, he shook the rake in his hand, and it became four or five feet long, and stretched into the sea. When the rake retracted, four large fish with a length of several feet had already been hooked.

Four big fish landed on the boat, swayed their tails and patted the boat, and the cabins of the row of wooden boats "squeaked".

As soon as Sanzang saw the live fish, he shouted, "That's good, that's good, Wukong, let's release that fish."

Although Wukong was not as hungry as Bajie, and he didn't like to eat raw food, he couldn't bear it now, but he flew up suddenly, and there were huge waves blocking the way, so he couldn't help it.

Seeing that Bajie brought the raw fish to his mouth and was about to swallow it into his stomach, he heard the roar of the waves, the high waves suddenly surged ahead, and a huge head floated on top of the waves, screaming: " Buddhas are impolite, wanting to eat meat on an empty stomach, breaking the fast. Such Buddhas deserve to suffer from Rakshasa’s calamity of eating meat.”

Upon hearing these words, Wukong and Sanzang looked up, and saw that terrifying head with purple face and bloody hair, mouth like a giant door, teeth like steel knives, a mouth full of blood, and bloody aura rushing towards them.

Sanzang even complained loudly to Bajie: "You pickle, you know how to eat. You were just hungry, but now you are going to be eaten by this monster."

Wukong was looking at the monster with his golden eyes wide open. At this moment, he heard the head screaming and roaring, and it instantly turned into a sky-high size. The four masters and apprentices were swallowed into the mouth of the huge head in an instant.

The surroundings were suddenly dark, and Bajie was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted: "Senior brother, senior brother, it's your turn to subdue the demons."

But Wukong didn't panic, he still observed with piercing eyes, and he also saw some clues for a moment.

I am afraid that this Rakshahai can be crossed as long as he endures the suffering of starvation.Now because Bajie caught raw food without authorization, he almost touched meat, and this is the monster.

As soon as Wukong thought about this, he shook the golden cudgel in his hand and stabbed it in the monster's mouth. At this moment, he heard a bang inside the head of the rakshasa, a red light flashed, and sixteen rakshasa appeared in front of him. .

These sixteen Rakshasa are all black-bodied and green-haired, covered in armor, holding giant axes, spears and various weapons, especially each Rakshasa has a different head, with heads of bulls, sheep, horses, and pigs. It is a variety of animal images, all of which are extremely ugly.

"Raksha ghost soldiers!" Wukong saw the sixteen Rakshasa ghost soldiers, and immediately felt that they were very similar to the sixteen Raksha ghost soldiers in the Nether Temple of Hell.

"You ghost soldiers are also worthy of being my way." Wukong waved the golden cudgel in his hand, and the blood around him trembled. The Raksha ghost soldiers were also surprised when they saw it, but none of them retreated.

"These ghost pawns seem to be much stronger than the ghost pawns in the Nether Palace." Wukong understood when he saw the reaction of these ghost pawns.

These ghost soldiers are all glowing with arhat golden light, could it be the sixteen demon Rakshasa under Maitreya's seat!
Wukong made a lot of friends in Huaguo Mountain, and he called many great immortals and Buddhas as brothers and brothers, and called friends and friends, but his knowledge was extremely high.

"Maitreya, since it's your way to stop my master and apprentice, why don't you come out to see me!" Wukong waved the golden cudgel and called out loudly in the bloody head.

"You monkey head, don't you hear the beauty of my Western Buddhism, the clouds disperse and the bright moon is in the sky, the water is dry and the pearl is born, and the flowers bloom before you can see me! Your master and apprentice can't cross this sea of ​​Rakshasas, and you can't pass this jeweled banner, so then Don't even think about seeing me, and don't even want to know how to follow the true path of the Western Paradise." Maitreya's voice was erratic, and it came from nowhere.

"Maitreya, just wait and see how I can pass through your guiding treasure building!" Hearing what Maitreya said, Wukong straightened up, swung the golden cudgel, and went straight to hit the Sixteen Rakshasas.
