[Chapter 724: Ancestor of Martial Dao Inheritance!]
Martyr Buddha.
It's a strange name.
Qi Xiaodie felt very strange in her heart, especially when she saw the eyes of the white-haired gray-clothed old man, just like a bottomless abyss, black and terrifying, and she couldn't help but retreat in her heart.
But when she heard the name, she couldn't help but stop.
"Martyr?"
In the Jokhang Temple, there are not 10,000 Buddhas in total, but also thousands, and these Buddhas have their own names.
However, the names of these Buddhas all have their own particularities.
For example, the "Medicine" Master Liuliguang Buddha, the Zhantan Merit Buddha, the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamps, etc., are all named after their characteristics or merits, and the one-word name of the Buddha is really unheard of.
The word martyrdom, but it makes people feel that there is a strong atmosphere, which is very different from the Buddha's inclusiveness, broadness, wisdom and clarity.
Inexplicably, Qi Xiaodie felt a palpitation, as if the name had a lot to do with her.
"Yes, it's the Buddha. β
The white-haired and gray-clothed old man looked away, he slowly walked to the Buddha statue, did not bend down, but he didn't know where to pull out three incense sticks, stretched out his hand and shook it, and then lit it, and casually "inserted" it into the incense burner in front of the Buddha, bowing his head slightly.
This is not the attitude of worshipping the Buddha.
Qi Xiaodie felt strange in her heart, she looked curiously at the white-haired old man's sleeves, took a step back, and looked at the three-headed and six-armed Buddha statue, her expression was complicated.
"Martyr Buddha, what kind of Buddha is it?"
Qi Xiaodie opened her mouth to ask, but she didn't hear the old man's answer for a long time, and the side hall was extremely silent for a while, only curling green smoke, wafting in it.
It wasn't until the three incense sticks were burning that the old man slowly turned around.
"Today's little girl, you are here, it is also a coincidence, since this is the case, let me tell you about the history of this martyr......
His tone was so commanding that Fluttershy didn't allow her to object, and she sat cross-legged on the offering table beside the Buddha on tiptoe.
Qi Xiaodie was stunned.
This kind of behavior, the monks of the Jokhang Temple, it seems that it is disrespectful, this old man is clearly here to give incense to the Buddha, but he has never bent his knees, and he has sat with the Buddha.
Did he think that he was a person who could be placed alongside this Buddha?
"108,000 Years ......"
The old man closed his eyes slightly, but he completely ignored Qi Xiaodie's reaction and told the story to himself.
The first sentence is very unreliable.
This is really like the beginning of the mythological story - the history of the Jokhang Temple, but only 10,000 years, 10,000 years ago, it was called ancient, and the things of ancient times are only incomplete records until now, no one knows how it is.
Further on, history is completely unverifiable, and all legends can only be regarded as myths.
108,000 years ago was a time when there were no even fragmentary records.
Well, this is a legend about a Buddha, this long past, can be taken as reasonable, Qi Xiaodie shook her head slightly, and couldn't help but feel amused by her oversensitivity.
In the final analysis, the Buddha and the like are just made up, and the religion of the foolish people, which even the senior monks of the Jokhang Temple admit.
When the martial arts reached the realm of the peak grandmaster of breaking the void, he naturally knew that in this heaven and earth, it was impossible for such a god and Buddha with vast magical powers to exist.
This so-called martyr Buddha is naturally just a story made up, so why should I take it seriously?
β...... The catastrophe of heaven and earth, the war and chaos are endless, and the Buddhas come to the world. β
This is indeed the beginning of the standard Buddhist scripture story, and Qi Xiaodie begins to regret why she wants to listen to this old man's chatter.
Although the name of the Buddha is strange, after all, it is only one of the Buddhas, and his story can be very different?
Sure enough, although the white-haired old man told the story very vividly, this beginning is still the way for the Buddhas to save the world.
At that time, the outer world was a mixed world of people, gods, beasts, ghosts, demons, and demons, and there was no distinction between life and death.
God is a race of natural powers, with a long lifespan, born in ancient times, much stronger than human beings, and has all kinds of incredible abilities.
Beasts, naturally, refer to divine beasts and demon beasts, their power is huge, and they are almost the masters of this world.
Ghosts are incarnated by spirit beings after death, the more powerful they are before death, the deeper the obsession at death, the stronger the ghosts they turn into, although they are naturally weaker than other races, with the accumulation of time, their number and strength are also extremely terrifying.
Demons and demons, Qi Xiaodie couldn't tell the difference, and the old man didn't explain in detail, anyway, it was roughly similar to the monsters in the demon world.
Humans are weak, but they are clever and always find a way to multiply and pass on their children from generation to generation.
These six forces are fighting endlessly, between heaven and earth, there is chaos, blood is flowing, and I don't know how many living beings have died.
At this time, the Buddhas were merciful and did not hesitate to descend from the Pure Land of Bliss to redeem this terrible world.
The way they think of it is to separate the different races, so that these races live in different places, and there will be no more conflict.
The gods were born gods, and they were supposed to dwell in heaven, and the Buddhas lifted them up and left this world.
Ghosts are dead creatures and should not be cohabited with living beings, so the Buddhas opened the opening of the netherworld and sent them all into it.
Demons are rampant, and the "sex" is cruel, and the Buddhas opened the demon world and sealed them with a stone tablet to suppress demons.
- Hearing this, Qi Xiaodie was stunned, Feng Ziyue had also mentioned to her about the Demon Suppression Stone Tablet, it was a real thing, in such a fictional story of the Buddhas, it was a little strange for the old man to suddenly mention it.
I remember Feng Ziyue said that the Demon Suppression Stone Tablet is divided into several pieces, each of which seals the entrance to the Demon Realm, and in the vast universe, it is not only the outer world.
"As for humans and beasts, they were left in this vast world by the Buddhas......"
The old man's gaze swept coldly over Qi Xiaodie's body, Qi Xiaodie's heart was cold, and the details of his demon beast transformation seemed to be seen through, and he couldn't help but shiver.
She didn't deliberately hide this matter, anyway, she didn't think there was anything wrong, but after she was reincarnated in human form, she couldn't see the traces of the demon beast at all, and if she didn't use the kung fu of the Nine Transformations of the Phantom Butterfly, she couldn't see any difference from ordinary people at all.
This old man seems to see through it, which makes people suspicious.
"The Buddhas save the world, I heard this story told by the monk Kongmu, but what did this martyr Buddha do? Is he also one of the Buddhas?"
This story is very similar, and the monk Kongmu also told Qi Xiaodie, of course, this kind of absurd legend, even he didn't expect Qi Xiaodie to believe it, in short, it is just a rumor about the origin of the Buddhas.
"The Flame Buddha is naturally one of the ancient Buddhas - and moreover, he is also an important one to mankind!"
The white-haired old man's face was "revealed" with a hint of gloom.
"Even if the worlds are divided, and the gods, demons, and ghosts return to their respective places, the lives of human beings have not been improved, not only are they suppressed by demon beasts, but even the wandering demons and ghosts can bully them. β
"Humans are too weak......"
The old man's tone was very embarrassed, and Qi Xiaodie couldn't help sighing, but then shook his head again, yes, humans are indeed weak, but ......
"Old man, you're bad, if humans don't practice, it's really very weak, but as long as they practice, it's easy to produce peerless powerhouses, I don't know about those gods, but among demons, ghosts and beasts, there are not many peak powerhouses who can be stronger than humans......"
"Hehe......"
Hearing Qi Xiaodie's retort, the white-haired old man sneered twice.
"Yes, the little girl has a bit of knowledge, you are right, but that is after the human beings have obtained the cultivation method, that is, after they have learned the martial arts!"
"What?"
Qi Xiaodie was stunned, "You mean, humans, like demon beasts, didn't have a cultivation method before?"
The Demon Beast Martial Dao did not gradually spread until the ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Temple came, and before that, the Demon Beast did not cultivate the Martial Dao, and was almost killed by the human race.
Unexpectedly, before this, there was an era when human beings didn't know how to cultivate at all, and they didn't know martial arts?
No wonder the demon beast can become the master of the world, and the human who can't cultivate, that is a complete weakling!
"Oh-" The white-haired old man's eyes flashed with essence, "Little girl, you actually know about the martial arts of demon beasts, and you have seen and heard a lot......"
Qi Xiaodie was a little weak-hearted, and laughed dryly, this involved the secret of the Heavenly Demon Temple, and she naturally couldn't admit it easily.
Okay, the old man didn't ask any more questions.
"That's right, it's true that it's the same as the demon beast, at the beginning, the human race didn't have any cultivation methods, so it was suppressed by the demon beast, and there was no ability to resist at all. β
"βAnd it is this martyr Buddha who has passed down the martial arts and made mankind prosperous!"
"Is that him?"
Qi Xiaodie was taken aback and pointed to the Buddha statue in the center, but her mouth was wide open, and she couldn't believe it.
"That'...... Isn't this martyr's merit unbelievably great......? How could his incense be so sparse?"
Passing on the martial arts is the foundation of human beings, and the merits of this martyr Buddha are incredible, just by virtue of this, how can he stay in this side hall?
At the very least, he should also stand side by side with the Three Ancient Buddhas of the Creation World, standing on top of the Mahavira Treasure Hall!
In the Buddhist scriptures, there is no record of this martyr Buddha, this ...... What's going on?
"Humph!"
The white-haired old man rolled his strange eyes, and his face became extremely sharp.
"It's not some people, it's the white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, Shengmien, Doumi Hatred, and when the human race gets martial arts, prospers, and produces peerless powerhouses, what they think of is not gratitude, but ungrateful!"
"The person under the first death martial arts achievement is actually this Burning Buddha!"
"What?"
Qi Xiaodie felt like five thunderbolts, and she couldn't believe her ears!
At this moment, he heard Feng Ziyue's familiar voice outside the door of the side hall.
"The number one master in the world is here, why is it so quiet? In the Jokhang Temple, the main gate should be opened to welcome the master of the floating alliance!"
