I Am Immortal

Chapter 484 Buddha is the Tao

The Taoist's voice was calm and slow, one word at a time, but it seemed to involve countless qi. When it fell on the ears of the extraordinary people, it was as loud as thunder. When the last word fell, the tied monks suddenly Sitting on the ground, his mind went blank and he was too stunned to speak.

 Transform Buddha into Tao!

Sakya is changed to a deity, Bodhisattva is changed to a great scholar, Arhat is changed to a venerable person, and a monk is changed to a virtuous person? !

 If the name is not correct, then the words will not go smoothly, and if the words are not smooth, then things will not happen!

The fate of humanity is a force formed by the recognition of countless people. If the Emperor of Humanity orders the restructuring and order, in the eyes of the people in the world, Buddhism becomes a branch of Taoism, then they recognize the lineage of Buddhism. I will also add another step to this recognition, that is [this is just a branch of the Taoist sect].

Humanity's luck is like a turbulent flow, a great river in the flood period, from here to there, and what this Taoist has done is to directly merge Buddhism's luck into this human's luck, making Buddhism's luck become It is a branch of Taoism's luck, and Taoism also assists the world, such as outlining and leading.

 Just as the east side of the Yellow River flows into the sea, the same is true for its branches.

Taomen is like this, how can there be other choices for the branches of Daomen?

 The longer time passes, the more people recognize the idea that Buddhism is a branch of Taoism.

In this way, Buddhism not only does not account for any of the luck in the human world, but in turn, the luck from Buddhism may be poured into the human world.

From now on, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva will be called Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

The Arhat who has subdued the dragon and the Arhat who subdued the tiger will be called the Venerable Dragon Subduer and the Venerable Tiger Subduer by the people.

These are like holes on a thousand-mile long embankment. People call the strong men of Buddhism this way, from generation to generation, and even for thousands of years and ten thousand years in the future. By that time, people may not know why. This is how we call these Bodhisattvas and Arhats of Buddhism.

However, isn’t this huge ritual that lasts for thousands or tens of thousands of years, in which countless people call the Bodhisattvas and Arhats of Buddhism by the titles given by Taoism?

 Buddhist luck will be eroded and affected by Taoism.

  And it is the kind of influence that lasts forever.

 It’s almost like boiling a frog in water.

 Not fierce, not fierce.



 As time goes by, it is even possible for Buddhism to merge into Taoism.

 This, this is going to cut off the root of Buddhism’s destiny!

“You!! You are a demon, you are a demon!!”

 “Such a vicious strategy!”

 “Monster, monster!”

The monk struggled violently. He was caught on purpose just to take advantage of the situation and get to the palace. At this moment, the Buddha's heart was shaken and he stood up suddenly. His arms shook and broke the ropes that bound him, and then became angry. He yelled: "Your evil way, your evil words are misleading the public, and you want to destroy my boundless Dharma. Today, this poor monk has tried his best to make you pay the price!"

Immediately, boundless Buddha light burst out, and the Vajra Dharma appeared behind his back. He clasped his hands and smashed them towards Qi Wuhuo.

 Li Zhai has drawn his sword.

But the Taoist looked calm, raised his hand, his five white and slender fingers penetrated the layers of Buddha's light, and pressed it on the monk's shoulder. The next moment, the Buddha's light collapsed, as if the general trend of the world was flowing here, and the Taoist just used two fingers. He suppressed the monk, and then with boundless force, the monk clasped his hands together and bowed down to the world.

　　Boom! !

His knees were embedded deeply into the ground and he couldn’t struggle out.

The Taoist raised his finger and said, "Pindao has given in three times."

 “The Taoist school dilutes modesty, and does not want to cause more sins.”

 “But we can’t take another half step back.”

The monk coughed up blood and said: "You, you, your behavior like this will definitely incur the wrath of all the Buddhas and lead to endless tribulations. This body will fall into the endless purgatory and suffer the punishments of the eighteen levels of hell. Only then can we atone for our sins! Atone for our sins!”

“Although we die, we can be reincarnated!”

"In the Buddha's land, you will find supreme compassion, great freedom, and great liberation!"

 “Eighteen levels of hell?”

 The Taoist shook his head.

The monk didn't know why, but he vaguely seemed to catch a glimpse of the divine will of the man in front of him. In that divine will, there was a hellish purgatory, boundless and gloomy, with many ghosts holding weapons and swords, chanting loudly, and there was a man wearing a black robe. In the underworld of the Yinsi, he occupies an honorable position, and looking at his face, he is the Taoist in front of him.

  ? ! !

The expression on the monk's face froze little by little, and he stared at the gentle Taoist in front of him under the sun.

 There was a huge wave in my heart.

  The Lord of the Underworld? !

His angry and curse-like words just now froze as if his bones were drained instantly. As a primitive Buddhist fanatic believer with "reincarnation" as the core doctrine, he suddenly discovered that the enemy he had to face was management. The reincarnated Lord of the Underworld.

For a moment, his brain stagnated, thinking about the Buddhas, the human world, the underworld, and the Taoism. He seemed to finally begin to realize that he seemed to be involved in some terrible things. He sat there quietly and paralyzed, looking in disbelief. Looking at the Taoist in front of him, the Taoist said, "Do you have anything else to say?"

 “Then, Mighty King, you are at work.”

 The Taoist turned around and walked away.

  ………

At this moment, Li Hui is dead, and the mighty king Li Zhai has raised the wrath of the world. Instead of killing the monks, he changed their clothes. A large number of monks either returned to secular life or became [virtuous scholars]. The original statues of the Buddhas were all like They are generally old monks, wearing ordinary and simple clothes, or with bald heads, or with a "polished flesh bun".

  means that the bones and flesh are raised and shaped like a bun. In fact, it is not hair at all.

"The Mahaprajna Sutra" says that the top of the World Honored One's head is covered with sand, which is high and circular, like a canopy, which is the thirty-two characteristics.

After King Mighty's order was issued, all the craftsmen in the world were mobilized. At this moment, an old craftsman smashed his mouth and looked worried at the huge Buddha statue in front of him. Can he not be worried? The emperor moved his mouth and broke his legs, saying that he wanted all Bodhisattva and Buddha statues to have hair.

 But this can’t be done in a short time!

 It can’t be finished, it can’t be finished at all!

The apprentice next to him also looked at his master with a sad face: "Master, the official order requires us to replace all the Buddhist statues within three months, but each of these statues must be carved. For several months, the two of us were responsible for more than a dozen Buddha statues, and there was nothing we could do."

The old craftsman rolled his eyes, knocked the tool in his hand on his apprentice's head, and said angrily:

 “There’s nothing you can do?!”

“Hey, look what you said, if we can’t do this, we won’t have to do it anymore!”

The apprentice seemed not to have heard the strange anger in his master's mouth, and said happily:

“In other words, we no longer have to do the job of masonry?!”

“Shit, your head will be moved from now on!”

The old craftsman cursed loudly, kicked his lazy apprentice on the buttocks, and said, "If we can finish the heads of these Bodhisattvas and Buddhas today, you and I won't have to hang our heads around our necks." Got it!"

He was so angry that he kicked all his apprentices to the ground. The apprentice was holding his buttocks and thinking about his wife who had just passed away under the covers. He really didn't want to carve stones in front of a stone with his skinny master. Three months later, the old Wangtou next door's eyes are still shining.

How can we steal some effort?

 He looked at the appointment letter in his hand in a daze, and the requirement in it was "Grow your hair and wear a crown".

 Leave your hair…

His eyes dropped and fell on the "polished flesh bun", which is the last and most noble phase of the thirty-two phases in Buddhism. The young man's mind was active, and suddenly an idea emerged in his heart, and he sat up for a moment. He got up, looked at the Buddha statue, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and suddenly poked his master with his hand and said: "Master, I have thought of a way!"

“Huh? What can I do?!” The young apprentice pointed at the polished bun and said, “Master, do you think this knot looks like hair?”

The old craftsman knew something about Buddhist statues and cursed: "These things are lumps on the head, not hair..."

His voice suddenly paused, and so did the young apprentice. They looked at the bun and fell silent.

 Then they all murmured in unison: "It's so similar..."

 “If there were more hair lines carved on it, it would look more like it.”

 The two masters and disciples looked at each other, and immediately a consensus emerged in their hearts.

 Otherwise…

 Are you lazy?

It seems that the time given by this order is too short, and the workload is too much and heavy. However, the working people actually have a certain common sense of laziness and cleverness, but they do not know that their little A little laziness, but the style of Buddhist statues has opened a gap at this moment.

 Before this, the Buddha [polished the bun], which was a bun with no hair lines.

 After this, there are hair lines on the top of the bun of the Buddha statues, like hair strands.

Among the Bodhisattvas, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and Maitreya Bodhisattva all remain in later generations in the posture of storing dharma and wearing a crown. Only Maitreya Bodhisattva became a Buddha in later generations and avoided the influence of the meat bun. , the Bodhisattva posture has a hair crown, and the Buddha posture becomes a rare bald Buddha.

Because Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is always asleep.

 Having never participated in anything, some Taoist people opened their mouths to excuse it.

Therefore, Ksitigarbha is the only one among the great Bodhisattvas who maintains the appearance of a monk without growing his hair.

 There are great changes in the world, surging like a long river.

The nine states of the world are too vast. Such an order was spread all over the world and then completely implemented. Even with the military order of the mighty king, it took more than a month. The trees in the world sprouted green buds, and the tender green buds stretched and grew. , turned into dark green, the flowers bloomed, and then gradually withered.

It was already June in the world, and Lao Qingniu felt that the weather was getting hotter and hotter. The bell hanging outside the storage room swayed in the wind, making waves of pleasant sounds.

The hooded little dragon girl stuck out her little head and carefully observed the place, her face full of confidence.

 From Xiao Longnu’s snitch visit log, Part 8—

Recently, I stepped on the Tibetan room, and there were more individuals in the room.

 Originally there were two, but then the strangely handsome man left, and there were only four people in this place.

 Hmph, only four!

 A young-looking Taoist priest Shouzang Shi.

 Young and weak, always reading books. At first glance, it looks like you don’t exercise much and have no strength in your hands!

  A little Taoist boy who likes to eat fruits.

 Hmph, I think I can abduct him with a date!

A burly helper who looks lazy, likes to chew soybeans when he has nothing to do, and stares at the east in a daze, or he covers his heart and looks like he is scared to death. Maybe he has some kind of physical illness. I will take him to see him next time. doctor.

There is also a middle-aged Taoist priest with a frail look. He just sweeps the house and lights lamps every day.

 Hmph, all the old, weak, sick and disabled are nothing special.

 The advantage is mine, the advantage is mine!

Even if the four of them come together, I, the Dragon Girl, will not be afraid at all!

Xiao Longnu nodded, feeling that it was time for her to go. However, at this moment, she suddenly saw the Taoist over there raising his head and looking over. There was a hint of sharpness in his eyebrows, which shocked Xiao Longnu and made her body tremble. He froze for a moment.

Qi Wuzhuo's vision seemed to follow the changes in cause and effect, and glimpsed the changes in the far west.

 The Buddhas are complaining to one Buddha.

"That Taishang Xuanwei is too much. When we have the Buddha, he kills the Buddha; when we have the monks, he excludes the monks. When we build the Landa Temple, he looks for people to eliminate the Landa Temple; We wanted to seek justice from him, but we were stopped outside the border by a small Taoist boy."

 “I wanted to help Renhuang recover, but Renhuang committed suicide.”

"Now I retreat again and again. We will not be able to enter, and the Bodhisattvas will not enter. Let ordinary monks enter the human world to teach the Dharma."

“He wants to destroy my image and change my title!”

“Let the monks enter the Taoist sect, cut off my fate, and cut off my Dharma lineage. What is happening now is unbearable, what should I do?! What should I do!”

"The Tathagata of Infinite Life and Wisdom and Light" is sitting on a lotus platform, also surrounded by Buddhas, closing his eyes and saying nothing.

These countless voices of complaint followed the silk threads that were invisible to the naked eye and hard to find even for large items, and flew beyond the thirty-third heavenly barrier, into the Antarctic Immortal Heaven, and into the ears of the Antarctic Immortal Emperor, the heaven and earth emperor. The ultimate one raised his eyes slightly, praised a lot, and said: "...It is a bit cruel to directly transform Buddha into Tao and draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron."

“It seems to have a bit of Fuxi flavor.”

"It's just a pity that if you cut off the future of Buddhism from the perspective of luck, then the struggle in the world will turn into a struggle between Buddhism and Taoism. From this point of view, your vision is too low and the pattern is too small; besides, With your small and vast knowledge, you use this method to eliminate the followers of Buddhism. Then if I ignore your wisdom and plan and use my strength to push it aside, what will happen to you?"

In the eyes of the Antarctic Changsheng Emperor, this is how Taishang Xuanwei is working step by step. The destiny of the world is improving day by day, faintly flourishing, and promoting the great prosperity of humanity. However, the Changsheng Emperor has not seen the young Taoist for a long time, which is a bit strange. Surprised, why can he change the destiny of the world so much?

  Could it be said that he has awakened the ancient bloodline?

So long has passed, and the innate human bloodline has reached his stage, and it should have been broken long ago.

Buddhism is a step forward for the Antarctic Immortal Emperor, and it is also the destiny occupied by his incarnation and his material.

 In the past, it was possible to sit back and watch, but now it is no longer possible.

 The Antarctic Immortal Emperor controls the white threads.

 【Infinite Life, Wisdom and Brightness Tathagata】slowly opened his eyes, and the discussion voices of the Buddhas suddenly stopped and looked at him.

 【Infinite Life, Wisdom and Brightness Tathagata】gently and sincerely said:

"I know the suffering of all fellow practitioners. After all, this plan was mine. Now that it failed, it is the poor monk who should bear the responsibility." He slowly raised his eyes and looked at the direction of the human world. A hint of Antarctic Immortal Emperor appeared at the corner of his mouth. With a very similar smile, he said gently:

 “I will take care of that Xuanwei for a while.”

First, Buddhism sets up a trap and invites Taoism to fight in the human world; then one step back is the Bodhisattva of Landa Temple; another step back, the Buddhas want to come but are forced to retreat, the temple is destroyed, and the Buddha statues are destroyed; at this moment, all Buddhism and Taoism are At the last tense step, until this moment the Taoist and the human world [transforming the Buddha into the Tao] completely exploded.

The influence of each incident is superimposed together, and eventually turns into a wave. The momentum becomes stronger and stronger, and the strength becomes stronger and stronger. It is like a thread that is getting tighter and tighter, and finally forces those who are hiding under the Buddhist gate to watch from the wall. , with the help of the fate of the Buddhist tribulation, this incarnation of the Antarctic Immortal Emperor, who has also achieved the highest level of Buddhism, has some influence.

 Don’t move any further.

　　If you don’t move, your arrangements in the past will be destroyed by the younger generation.

 He stood up and walked down the lotus platform.

 Then he took steps towards the human world.

 One step is a lotus, one step is a thunder.

 The momentum is like thunder!

 Directly refers to human guests!
