Chapter 407: Water Comes to Cover the Earth
In all fairness, maybe we should call her Houtu by now. Houtu listened to Xiyue's words and was silent for a long time, she knew that with Xiyue's identity, she would not lie, but she could really forget the past, forget the death of Dijun, Taiyi and her nine sons.
"Why, Daoist friends don't believe in poor Dao?" Seeing Houtu's silence, Xiyue couldn't help but ask.
"No, it's just that Taoist friends can really forget... Abandon the Lich? Halfway through the words, he turned a corner. Since Xiyue is Xiyue, it is better not to mention the matter of Xihe.
"Fellow Daoist, why does Poor Dao mind about the Lich's affairs, and what does the Lich's matter have to do with Poor Dao?" Xi Yue asked rhetorically.
Houtu was stunned: "It's the poor road that has lost his word." ”
If she is really Xihe, and even the name of the god has been changed, what can't she let go.
"In this way, the Taoist friend believes in the poor way." Xiyue asked.
Hou Tu said with a little bitterness: "Poor Dao has never doubted Daoyou, but Poor Dao can't let go of himself." ”
Xi Yue said: "Daoyou is serious, although we are the gods of heaven and earth, but we still have some concerns, Daoyou is righteousness, how can it be called obsession." ”
"Daoist friends have won the award, and the Dao Dao is hopeless like this, I just want the Wu clan to continue, and it is worthy of the brother of the poor Dao and his former clan." Houtu smiled, but only he knew the bitterness in it. She was isolated and trapped in the underworld, and she wanted to protect the last trace of the Wu clan's bloodline to pass it on, but they didn't let her go.
"Daoyou is righteous." All the words were just turned into this sentence in the end, and the reincarnation of the earth body at the beginning did not mean to block the robbery for the Wu clan.
"It's a poor road nagging, since the Taoist friends are here, there must be a way, please say it bluntly, Houtu will definitely go all out." Houtu said solemnly, and even called himself Houtu, a name that has not been mentioned for tens of thousands of years, to show his attitude.
However, Houtu didn't say death, he went all out, just went all out to the West, not all the way to Xiyue's next words.
Xi Yue said: "Since he wants hell not to be empty and vow not to become a Buddha, then let hell never be empty, let him stay in the underworld, so that the desolate beings can take a look and calculate the price that the underworld will pay." ”
Xi Yue said it lightly, but the ruthlessness in these words was really shocking. Although Jizo had just made a big wish, she didn't have time to think about it yet, but she just wanted to expel Jizo, and she didn't want to be so decisive.
"Do you think this is too ruthless?" Looking at Hou Tu's somewhat shocked face, Xi Yue asked with a smile. She's not a virgin, and everyone else calculates that you can be so good-tempered.
Houtu said: "That's true. ”
"Fellow Daoist, people's ambition is that hell is empty, and Bodhi is proven. If hell is not empty, he will not be able to become a Taoist, and he will not leave the underworld. If you don't, you can only watch him become enlightened, and then meddle in the affairs of the underworld. ”
"Don't forget that the ambition he made was approved by Heaven. As soon as his ambition is fulfilled, it is only natural that he will stay in the underworld and rule hell. Xiyue said.
"Under the oath of the Heavenly Dao, you can't kill him, then you can only make him unable to become the Tao, and it will also deter the immortals who are eyeing the underworld."
Houtu was shocked when he heard this, it was indeed as Xiyue said. It seems that she thinks less, at this moment she can't help but admire Xiyue a little, no wonder she can stir up the storm in the flood in a short period of time, so that the saints can't please her. Supreme calculation is secondary, and her ruthlessness is the most critical.
"What Daoyou said is that the poor Dao is not thoughtful." Houtu said with some shame.
Xiyue is envious of Houtu, she is really kind-hearted, and she is also too well protected by other ancestors.
"This time it's not that we're ruthless, it's that we don't have a choice, it's that the West only gives us two extreme choices. Since they can't be satisfied, they can only be allowed to lose their troops. Xiyue said.
Houtu said: "What Daoyou said is that the West is unkind, so don't blame the poor and unjust." Presumably they themselves expected this situation, since they didn't care about it, why should Poor Dao feel sorry for him. ”
Houtu has lived for tens of millions of years, and he is not a fool. I didn't think about it before, I didn't really understand it, I just didn't want to think of people in that aspect.
"Since he wants hell to be empty, then the poor way will make hell never empty." Houtu said. The entire reincarnation underworld is under her control, and the hell that imprisons the evil ghosts who have no ** return can't escape her control.
Xi Yue nodded and said, "That's how it should be." ”
"But it's not just for the sake of it."
Houtu said: "If you have something to say, please say it directly." ”
"Although Daoyou is in charge of the underworld, he will not leave the underworld easily. But the world is impermanent, and there are times when Taoist friends leave. With the power of Jizo and those two, as long as the Taoist friend is not there, he can make hell empty. Hell is gone, and his ambition is opportunistically accomplished. Xiyue said.
Houtu said: "What Daoyou said is reasonable, the poor Tao cannot be released without an edict, not forever. As soon as the poor road comes out of the underworld, with their strength, they can definitely cross the evil spirits in it, even if they can't cross it, they can temporarily leave hell. ”
"If people in the West are really calculating, and even dare to tease the Heavenly Dao oath like this, aren't they afraid of being attacked by the Heavenly Dao in the future?"
There are only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves. is remembered by thieves, or a few thieves who are stronger than themselves, how can they be foolproof.
Xi Yue smiled and said, "Why don't you dare, the way of heaven is ruthless, how can you care about this." What's more, this is just the ambition of Jizo alone, and what does it have to do with the West. ”
"Hell is not empty, and the Heavenly Dao is not aware of this loophole, but Hell now has many evil ghosts, and all of them have been crossed, which is also a great merit, and he will not become holy, this grand wish is enough."
Hou Tu nodded: "That's true, there are endless beings in the wilderness, and there are endless evil ghosts." After these are crossed, those can also be crossed in the future, and to a certain extent, hell is indeed empty. ”
The way of heaven is not so easy to deceive, but this is also exactly the calculation of the West. Whether Hell is empty or not, Jizo will remain in the underworld.
"What is the best way to do it?" Houtu asked, and for a moment she really couldn't think of any perfect way.
Xi Yue said: "Daoist friends have thought about improving the underworld again, and governing it layer by layer, even if Daoyou leaves the underworld temporarily, Dizang will not be able to make any waves." ”
"There are still many clansmen in the Wu clan, and there will inevitably be many more positions when the underworld is perfected, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone, what do you think?"
Houtu was stunned when he heard this, and improved the underworld, and the people of the Wu clan were in charge of the underworld layer by layer.
"Daoyou really deserves to be a capable person who has repeatedly suffered losses in the West." Houtu sighed.
If there is an existence in hell that can compete with Jizo, how can he succeed in crossing. This was a complete rejection of his path to enlightenment.
Xi Yue said: "Daoist friends praise falsely, if they don't deceive people too much, and poor people don't want to provoke right and wrong, they come and go chicly, it should be the demeanor that people in my generation should have." ”
Houtu sighed: "Yes, but this is just a pursuit, in the wilderness, there are countless karmic reincarnations." ”
Xi Yue said: "Who said it wasn't? ”
"Amitabha." At this moment, a Buddha horn sounded through the underworld, and the golden Buddha light bloomed on the bodies of countless evil ghosts, turning into believers who surrounded Jizo and recited supreme Buddhist scriptures with him.
