White Bone Monkey King

The third prince and the others sneered at the plague mentioned by the Japanese guide, and then asked Master Zenjing and Master Juehai from Zhenguo Temple to open the way.

Buddhism is a diamond that saves all living beings and drives away all evil in the world.

Just like the great sun shining on the four heavens, when the sun rises, the whole world will be bright.

"...the sand of the Ganges River, the Buddha said that this is the sand. Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Brahma gods walk by, and the sand is not happy. Cattle, sheep, insects, and ants trample on it, but the sand is not angry. Treasures are fragrant, and the sand is not angry. Not greedy; excrement and urine are smelly and dirty, and sand is not bad. This mind is the mind without mind. It is separated from all appearances, and there is no difference between all living beings and Buddhas. But being able to be mindless is the ultimate. If Taoists do not directly practice without mind, they will practice for many kalpas. In the end, he will not become enlightened and will be bound by the three vehicles of merit and cannot be liberated..."

The two masters measured the heaven and earth with one step, reciting the supreme Buddhist scriptures to cross the sea of ​​suffering and reach the other shore.

Nagano was littered with corpses and corpse miasma filled the air. Deserted towns and houses could be seen everywhere. The Japanese guides were stunned as they watched the army pass through the corpse miasma area safely. The poisonous green mist was all dispersed by the sacred Buddha's light. He knelt down and kowtowed to Master Chanjing and Master Juehai, shouting words like Living Bodhisattva and Living Tathagata.

The old Taoist priest who was also riding on horseback and closely following Jin An approached Jin An and asked, "Do the Japanese also believe in Buddhism that much?"

Jin An nodded: "The Japanese not only borrowed seeds from the Han people, but also worshiped the Han culture, such as Taoism, Buddhism, tea ceremony, etc. They all copied it. Except for the different writing, the humanities and customs are almost like another well-off country."

"Buddhism has flourished several times in the Han Dynasty, so the Japanese also particularly worship Buddhism. However, what they worship is not Mahayana Buddhism, but Hinayana Buddhism. For example, the two most powerful schools, Tiantai Sect and Shingon Sect, are both esoteric sects."

The old Taoist priest and Liu Tai who were following Jin An both looked at Jin An in surprise. The old Taoist said: "Little brother, when have you ever been to a Japanese island? No wonder, little brother, you are so familiar with the Japanese people carrying pillows and sheets with them." ."

Jin An was speechless and rolled his eyes: "Go, go, how can you talk, you are so talented. I said I just have a lot of miscellaneous knowledge."

The old Taoist priest smiled obscenely at Jin An, and it was unclear how much he believed in him.

As the bumpy road went up and down on horseback, Jin An looked at Liu Tai: "We have entered the Japanese island now. Did Fatty Li say how to find him?"

Liu Tai looked worriedly at the vast mountain forest behind the green corpse miasma and shook his head: "The boss just asked me to find an opportunity to break through the blockade and bring the news to Jiangzhou Mansion as soon as possible. When the boss led away those who rebelled against the party, the expression on his face was that of going to Jiangzhou. He died so decisively that the leader never thought he could survive being hunted by so many people.”

Liu Tai was sentimental and his eyes were red.

Jin An, who was riding on horseback, looked into the distance, looking at the towering snow-capped mountains at the end of his field of vision: "Fatty Li's life is very hard, and nothing will happen if he shouts to fight evil every day. This kind of person even wants to die." They may not accept him. If Fatty Li escapes the heavy pursuit, he will definitely return to Nagano in the end and continue his duties as the Criminal Investigation Department. Maybe we can reunite with Fatty Li in Nagano Castle."

Nagano is known as the roof of the island, and it is one of the highest places on the island. It has lush virgin mountain forests, valleys as warm as spring, snow-capped mountains, and alpine canyons shrouded in clouds and mist. The party must have carefully planned to choose its base in Nagano, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack and can overlook the surrounding movements.

Niigata is adjacent to the same high-altitude terrain, which is the most favorable terrain for attacking Nagano. Previously, the old Taoist priest asked Jin An whether the Mountain Spider King Temple found on Niigata Beach was also deliberately arranged by someone. Jin An was not sure before entering Nagano, but as the altitude went higher and higher, he learned that Nagano has a convenient terrain. Finally, he felt that the fleet would choose to land in Niigata, and then march from Niigata to Nagano. Their every move was expected by the rebels...

What just puzzled him was why the opponent didn't take advantage of Nagano's high terrain to hold on to one or two favorable terrains and snipe them?

Thinking of this, he set his sights on the Yujing Golden Tower, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion who were accompanying the army. Perhaps there were so many masters of the three realms going south to the south of the Yangtze River, which exceeded the other party's original expectations.

This made Jin An think of another thing. If even the rebels didn't expect this kind of thing, then the real purpose of so many masters from the three realms coming to Jiangnan from Yujing Golden Tower, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion Maybe it's not to protect the prince on his southern tour, but there are other more important things to investigate secretly.

And if it can be bigger than the Nanqian Beiqian case, and it can have so many masters of the three realms traveling together, the answer is ready to come out. Yujing Golden Tower, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion have already known the news in advance. The Shaoyang Bureau here is also in Jiangnan? So I accompanied the Third Prince and the others on their southern tour.

If Yujing Golden Tower, Zhenguo Temple, Tianshi Mansion, Bulao Mountain...it seems that there are more hidden forces dormant in Jiangzhou Mansion. These dormant forces should be waiting for the opportunity and competing for opportunities.

Thoughts collided one after another. Jin An thought of many things along the way, trying to figure out the general trend of the world.

At this time, a scout came to report that a fortress guarding the canyon was found in front of them. However, the fortress was now empty and had been destroyed before it was attacked. Many of the defensive equipment inside remained intact.

When the large force arrived at the fortress, they found that it had indeed been actively abandoned, which further confirmed Jin An's guess. They did not expect to alert so many masters from the Three Realms to Jiangnan, so they gave up resistance along the way and planned to concentrate all their efforts to defend it. One place.

But everyone can see that facing so many masters of the three realms, it is absolutely impossible to defend with flesh and blood alone.

The Third Prince and others also guessed that the morale of the rebels had plummeted and that they had lost the courage to resist. They decisively ordered an emergency march to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible.

After marching for more than two days, they passed the empty city fortress. The third prince and the others stood on a high mountain and looked down. They saw a huge city on a large plain created by the confluence of two rivers.

There is Nagano Castle.

At this time, the Japanese were already fighting outside Nagano Castle.

There are tens of thousands of Japanese warriors fighting in the plains. The plains are dyed red with blood. There are also masters of the three realms fighting in the sky.

There are onmyojis and strong men from the three realms of Tantric Buddhism fighting each other.

There are sorcerers and sorcerers fighting.

The samurai legions on the ground were flying many flags, some were black, some were green, some were red...

The Japanese guide saw those flags and exclaimed: "That's the samurai corps of Gunma, that's Saitama's samurai corps, and the samurai corps of Fukui, Fukuyama, Ishikawa, Gifu, Shiga... the shogunate around Nagano All the great names are here!”

But no one paid attention to his exclamations, because they were all distracted by the fighting in the third realm in the sky.

A strong person in the third level of Tantric Buddhism has great Dharma. He melts the golden body of Buddha in his hands and spreads it all over his body. He turns it into the incarnation of the Great Sun Tathagata and walks around the world. He speaks the nine-character mantra in Sanskrit and the wild quilt god, ghost woman, Baizu, and hungry ghost sister summoned by the Onmyoji. The seven shikigami, the younger brother, the bone girl, the thunder ghost evil source Chengju Naganobu, and the faceless geisha were all killed equally.

"Everyone knows that the 'Tosai Onikawa' family that controls Nagano likes to kill Buddha. Ten years ago before enslaving the people into Nagano Castle, they slaughtered all the monks in Nagano and burned down all the temples. I didn't expect that the Heijo Kyo Nara Temple would still dare to do so today. Step into Nagano. Don't be afraid of the 'Tōsai Onikawa' to kill Heijōkyō and bloodbath the temple again." Onmyoji laughed, trying to disturb the opponent's Buddha mind and find weaknesses.

"Amitabha, the world is divided into the Vajra Realm and the Womb Treasure Realm, and the Great Sun Tathagata is the unified entity of the two parts. Earth. I went to hell to help Buddha subdue demons, which is a great merit." The Zen mind of the eminent monk in the third realm of Tantric Buddhism was strong, and the tall golden Buddha incarnated was not shaken at all.

The Onmyoji continued to disturb the Buddha's mind: "Ten years ago, the 'Tōsai Onikawa' family massacred so many people, and there were so many corpses on the roadside that they couldn't even bury them. Why don't you see the Tantric Sect coming forward to subjugate demons and save living souls? Now when I hear about Nagano Castle There is a 'cornucopia' artifact, but you, a bald old monk, come here with all your benevolence and morality to conquer the devil."

Master Heijo Kyo Nara Temple did not argue about Buddhism with a person outside the esoteric sect. Instead, he calmly looked at the other person with a pair of eyes of wisdom and revealed the secret: "The two most powerful families in Onmyoji are the congratulations passed down by Tadayuki Kamo." The Shigeru family is good at Onmyoji and Shugendo; the Abe family, passed down from 'Abe Seimei', is good at the famous demon-suppressing hand seal 'Five-rayed Platycodon Seal' and the unique Twelve Shikigami. Dare to kill the Nara temple master, but he does not belong to ' After the famous families of Kamo and Abe, there is only one possibility left for your identity. You are a descendant of Ashiya Michitoshi, who is known as the most evil lineage of Onmyoji."

The Onmyoji laughed again. This time he said nothing, neither admitted nor denied, and then pulled out a demon sword. As soon as the demon sword was unsheathed, hundreds of thunderbolts arose in the void. He merged with the shikigami thunder ghost Seikiku Naganobu, and inherited Seikiku Naganobu's supernatural power to control thunder. He raised his sword with evil intent to kill the mage of Heijo Kyo Nara Temple.

When the Golden Sun Tathagata saw the demonic sword, his expression changed slightly, he clasped his hands together and shouted loudly: "I didn't expect you to find the demonic sword that beheaded Cheng Ju Changxin!"

One is the thunder ghost Chengju Naganobu, and the other is the demon sword that beheads Chengju Naganobu. The two merged to inspire the terrifying and boundless resentment of the thunder ghost Chengju Naganobu. The lethality of the yin thunder was greatly increased, integrating the yin and yang of the thunder ghost shikigami. The master is as fast as lightning, and the golden body of the Great Sun Tathagata has several black wounds corroded by thunder ghosts.

The fight between the sorcerer and the sorcerer on the other side was even more intense. Behind a sorcerer, a mountain spider with evil compound eyes and as huge as a mountain appeared. The mountain spider reflected the void, filled with resentment, and devastated all life wherever it passed. , the eight sharp long legs of the mountain spider cooperate with the demon knife in the hand of the magician to stab the opponent crazily, so fast that the shadow is invisible.

This is exactly the big spider magic in The Magician! You can channel the Spider King of the Deep Mountain Demon Mountain!

The sorcerer on the other side was casting a big ghost snake magic! A huge snake transformed from behind, with indestructible scales and a huge snake body covered with eye stripes. It was as evil as the Mountain Spider King.

Both of them were good at using knives, and when they fought, they were bloody, and the air was filled with the majestic smell of the blood of two powerful men in the third realm.

"Huh? So many shogunate daimyo forces and powerful men from the three realms are all trying to compete for the cornucopia in Nagano City?" Jin An raised his eyebrows, not expecting to hear news about the cornucopia on the Japanese island.

Not only Jin An was surprised, but everyone who knew the origin of the cornucopia artifact had their eyes flickering at this moment, staring closely at Nagano Castle on the plain in the distance.
