Volume 4: The Age of the Lich Chapter 47 The Last Tribulation The Catastrophe of the Protector

People have arrived at the door, we can't spy on it, I didn't expect to pick up the guide in person rowing a boat to pick up, but look at this Buddhist bitter sea, really mysterious. ”

Above the heavenly court, in the lotus world, Shen Long and the women looked in the mirror, the Tang monk and the others came to the west, and the Taoist people turned the treasure building into a bottomless boat, pulling everyone across the river, in the bitter sea, Tang Seng They all saw their bodies sinking into the sea, this is the metamorphosis, Tang Seng shed the mortal body, washed away the lead, and the monkeys also felt relaxed, and the karma of the whole body was completely eliminated.

But later, Shen Long and the great power of the heavens had no way to see it, and they came out in person, it was impossible for them to snoop, and it was impossible not to be discovered, if they were caught at the door of the house and lost face, everyone was not beautiful.

"I don't know what scriptures the Buddha has in the Daoist family, those Buddhas have nothing to do in the Elysian realm to compile the scriptures, that Tibetan scripture building is famous far and wide, and all the heavens know it. ”

"That is still the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, which was established after the Duobao Taoist became the Buddha of the West, and the West likes to make these Taoisms, don't you know that the true scriptures are a sentence, and the false scriptures are ten thousand books?"

"This is Taoist thought, the two great wisdom of the West, and I don't know what medicine Lu Tao sells. ”

Shen Long nodded and said: "Cultivation is originally the same path, everyone is wonderful to you, I am mysterious, and each has nothing to do with it." Hey, by the way, now that the guide has gone to the Elysian realm, we can peek at the big-eared Buddha in the Mahavira Treasure Hall. ”

As he spoke, the Chaos Bell above his head shook slightly, and suddenly there was a noisy sound in his ears, followed by a monk's chanting. The meaning of the Buddha's preaching, he held the Haotian mirror with both hands, stretched out his hand to wipe the mirror, and the picture paused for a moment and became clear.

At this time, Tang Seng led a group of people to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, bowed down to Rulai, and looked at the golden body of Rulai. With a big head and big ears, it naturally exudes a majesty sitting in the center, heaven and earth. I am the only one.

After worshipping, he bowed to the four bodhisattvas on the left and right, the eighteen arhats, and the vajra, Jiedi, and Jialan. After kneeling down to Rulai, the customs clearance document is presented, this customs clearance document is a clear proof, a detailed record of the Tang monk's way all the way, such as to see one by one, but also handed to Sanzang, Sanzang again, and then played:

"Disciple Xuanzang, according to the will of the Tang Emperor of Dongtu, he refers to Baoshan. Pray for the scriptures, in order to help all sentient beings, hope that the Buddha will be gracious, give the scriptures as soon as possible, and let the disciples return to China. ”

Rulai has a sad face. With great compassion, he said to Tang Sanzang: "Your eastern soil, just because the sky is high and the earth is thick, the things are wide and the people are dense, there are many greed and killing, and there is much lewdness. Many deceitful and deceitful, not following Buddhism, not following good karma, not respecting the three lights, not valuing the five grains, being disloyal and unfilial, unrighteous and unkind, concealing oneself, fighting big and small, killing and killing animals: creating boundless iniquity, full of sins and evils, leading to the disaster of hell; therefore, forever falling into the underworld, suffering from many pounds and grinding, and changing animals. There are many hairy horns, and they will pay their debts, and they will feed men. It will never fall into the nose, and those who cannot be exalted are all for this reason. Although there is a Confucian clan who has established a teaching of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom on his side, the emperors have successively punished him with the punishment of hanging and beheading, and he is like an ignorant and unscrupulous, indulgent and unscrupulous person!"

"I now have the Sutra of the Three Tibets, which can transcend suffering and explain calamities. Three Tibets: There is a Dharma and a Tibet, talking about the sky, there is a discussion of the earth, there is a scripture and a Tibet, and the ghosts are saved. There are thirty-five books in all, and the fifteen thousand one hundred and forty-four volumes. It is really the path of cultivating truth, the door of righteousness and goodness. The astronomy, geography, people, birds and beasts, flowers and trees, utensils, and personnel of the four continents of the world are all carried in general. Thou shalt wait for thou to come from afar, and thou shalt take it all, but the man on that side is foolish and strong, and slanders the truth, and does not know the mystery of my shaman. ”

Then he shouted to the side: "Anandaya, you two lead him to the four people, go to the bottom of the treasure tower, first fast and treat him, and then open the treasure pavilion, and pick up a few volumes of each of my three Tibetan scriptures, within the thirty-five parts, and teach him to spread the eastern soil and stay in Hongen forever." ”

Seeing this, everyone's faces were strange, and Ruyi sneered: "This monk is really a sassy bag, there is no one who was in the sect at all, it is simply coaxing and deceiving, it seems that in this flood and wilderness, without the Western Sect, the Heavenly Dao is not half complete, it is really ridiculous, ridiculous !!"

Ao Kun was also unconvinced, and snorted: "I want to see what kind of goods this Western religion has." ”

Saying that, she began to chatter, here happened to be Tang Seng and they finished eating, came to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, saw the Buddhist scriptures, Ao Kun chanted at the corner of his mouth: "There are really many scriptures here, "Nirvana Sutra" is a 748 volumes, "Bodhisattva Sutra" is a 1,021 volumes, "Void Sutra" is a 400 volumes, "Shoulengyan Sutra" is a 110 volume...... "Treasure Sutra" is a 45 volume, "Huayan Sutra" is a 500 volume, "Great Prajna Sutra" is 916 volumes, "Great Light Sutra" is a 300 volumes, and the Diamond Sutra A Hundred Volumes ......"

Su Tianxiang's eyes lit up and said, "It's quite too much, let me see what are the mysteries of these great monks' scriptures." Oh, this is one of the eight hundred volumes of the Buddha Sutra, one hundred volumes of the Lotus Sutra, one hundred volumes of the Yoga Sutra, one hundred volumes of the Great Wisdom Sutra, one hundred and eighty volumes of the Great Wisdom Sutra, and one of the two hundred and twenty volumes of the Great Peacock Sutra...... Huh?"

As he was talking, suddenly the picture shook and disappeared, the girls looked at Shen Long, Shen Long smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect to find it, but it was discovered by the old guy who burned the lamp, this guy used the twenty-four sea god beads, turned the twenty-four heavens to cut evil thoughts, and used the ghost lamp to cut good thoughts, incarnated as the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth, and his cultivation became more and more profound, but I didn't expect his deity to be in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion." ”

Ruyi exclaimed: "Burning the lamp, oh, now it should be called the ancient Buddha of the burning lamp, and it is also the Buddha of the past, and the present Buddha of Rulai, and the future Buddha Maitreya are in charge of Hinayana Buddhism, and they are really worthy of being the listeners of Zixiao Palace." ”

Shen Long clapped his hands and smiled: "I still remember my kindness before, and I didn't report me, but if you don't look at it, you finally know the filth of Western Buddhism, and continue to look down." ”

Soon after, the Tang monk and apprentice came back from learning the scriptures, walked when they came, and had their own great power to see them off when they returned.

Tang Seng flew for the first time in this life, felt the beauty and wonder of flying, and constantly thanked Amitabha. However, it didn't fly for long, the wind and clouds in the sky dissipated, and Tang Seng and his apprentices stumbled and fell.

And those scriptures also flew up in the turbulent wind, and Bajie chased after him, packed up, and met Tang Seng. Tang Seng wept and said: "Bajie, this is the realm of Elysium, how can there be such a murderer?"

The sand monk took the loose sutra that he was holding. When I started looking at it, it turned out to be snow-white, and there was no handwriting. Hurriedly handed it to Sanzang and said, "Master." There is no word in this volume. "Sun Monkey [da] opened another volume, and when he read it, there was no word. The Eight Commandments [da] open a volume, and there are no words.

Sanzang's face was like a blank piece of paper, and he shouted, "Tong [da] open it and take a look." "Rolls of white paper.

Tang Seng sighed and said: "I am not blessed as a native of the East! What is the use of taking such a wordless empty book? How dare I see the King of Tang! The crime of the king is not to be punished!"

Sun Monkey's face was ruthless, he already knew it, and said to Tang Seng: "Master, there is no need to say it. This is Ah Da and Gayena. I asked for personnel, but no, so I came with this blank paper. Go back and sue him before he comes, and ask him about the crime of cheating. ”

Bajie shouted: "Exactly, exactly." Sue him!" The four people hurriedly returned to the mountain, but there was no good step, and they hurriedly turned to the thunder again.

Seeing this scene, all the women of the heavenly court were stunned, and Ruyi asked with a strange face: "Which one is this singing? Why is it a blank scripture, Tang Seng took the scriptures." How can you take the false scriptures? It's ridiculous. ”

Niu Caixia said thoughtfully: "Could it be that Duobao Daoist instructed him? He is a disciple of the sect, and he does not want Buddhism to spread eastward, which is reasonable, but it is ......."

Su Tianxiang shook his head and denied: "Impossible, I think this Duobao Daoist has died, this journey to the west is the trend of the times, the two saints in the West are not so easy to fool, it may be for other reasons." ”

Xihe shook his head and said: "Maybe this is a signal from the Duobao Dao people to the sectarian saints, although it is a weak resistance, but it proves that his heart belongs to the sect?"

Su Tianxiang said with a disdainful face: "Maybe ba, I don't believe it, even if you show your intentions, don't you need to be so obvious, it's better to shout outside the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall in person: Master, I will always love you!!"

Shen Long's face was full of black lines: "Okay, okay, these wordless scriptures are not false scriptures, but real scriptures, but we can't see them, now we can see the Tao if we don't see it." ”

This time, Shen Long once again activated the Chaos Bell and the Haotian Mirror, the Chaos Bell is the Sound Dao Treasure, the Haotian Mirror can see all the heavens, but they are all existences above the Innate Treasure, as long as you are careful, there will be no problem.

And this time, I watched more carefully, and finally understood the reason.

As soon as the picture was clear, I saw Sun Monkey jumping up and shouting in a frizzy manner: "If you come! My master and apprentice have suffered thousands of stings and thousands of demons, and have suffered a lot of hardships, and they have come here from Dongtubai, and they have been instructed by Rulai to pass on the scriptures.

The Buddha smiled and said, "Don't you shout." The two of them asked you for a relationship, and I knew that. But it is only a scripture that cannot be passed on lightly, nor can it be taken in vain. When the monks went down the mountain, they recited this sutra to him at the house of the elder Zhao of Sheweiguo, to ensure the safety of the living in his family, and the deceased to be detached, and only asked him to come back with three buckets and three liters of rice and gold. I also said that they sold it cheaply, and they had no money to teach their children and grandchildren. Now you have come empty-handed, but you have passed on the blank book. The white book is a wordless scripture, but it is also good. Because you, the beings of the eastern land, are ignorant and ignorant, you can only pass on this ear. ”

Then he shouted: "Ah Da, Gaye, soon there will be a true scripture with words, and a few volumes will be checked with him in each part, and I will report the number here." ”

The second venerable reinstated the four congregations, went to the treasure pavilion of the treasure building, and still asked Tang Seng for some personnel. Sanzang had nothing to flatter, so he ordered the sand monk to take out the purple gold bowl Meng, and offered it with both hands: "The disciple committee is poor and cold, and he has never been prepared for personnel. This bowl was given by the Tang King himself, and the disciples held it and fasted along the road. Today, we will present it and talk about the heart. Venerable Wanwang did not disdain to accept this, and when he returned to the court to play the Tang Dynasty, he would be grateful. It's just given with the words of the scriptures, and the meaning of Shu is not lonely, and the labor of traveling far away. ”

The Ah Ah took it, but smiled slightly. By those wrestlers who are in charge of Zhenlou, who are in charge of incense, and the Venerable who watches the pavilion, you wipe his face, I pounce on his back, flick his fingers, twist his lips, and smile one by one: "Don't be ashamed, don't be ashamed! Suddenly, his face was wrinkled, but he just held the bowl and kept it. Jiaye only entered the pavilion to check the scriptures, and checked them one by one with the three Tibets. Sanzang shouted: "Apprentices, you are all so good to see, it is not like before." "The three of them took one volume after another, and read one volume. But they are all words. Five thousand and forty-eight volumes have been passed down, which is the number of one collection. Packed up neatly and carried it on a horse, and the rest was loaded with a load, which Bajie carried. Packing his own bags, the sand monk carried it.

The walker led the horse, and Tang Seng took the tin staff. Press the Pilu hat and shake the brocade robe, and then you like it. Before my Buddha comes, I will take my leave.

This time, the West once again sent them to the clouds, and the women were finally relieved. At this time, he remembered what he had just said, and asked Shen Long: "The transmission of Buddhist scriptures is really exquisite, but it is also worthy of Taoist reference, and we also need to learn from it.

Shen Long nodded and said, "Of course it's true, in fact, these scriptures are still made by the two of them." ”

"The two saints who are introduced and Zhun Ti?" exclaimed the women.

Shen Long said with a serious expression: "This is the wordless true scripture that came out of the two saints' Dafa aspirations back then. This is the formation of the grand wish, if the two of them complete the grand wish, then these wordless scriptures will show the truth, now it seems that the two saints have a long way to go. ”

At that time, the two saints made a grand wish, a total of 48 articles. There are many kinds, but the general meaning is that they are going to establish the realm of Bliss, and the realm of the immeasurable constant sands, which are filled with bhikshus, vajrayoghans, bodhisattvas and Buddhas. There are many Buddhas and so on.

When these are completed, I can become a Buddha, their ambition is to open up the Elysian realm, back then they wanted to open up a Elysian realm as big as the Flood Desolation World Realm at that time, that is the Great Thousand Realms, so in Shen Long's opinion, if the two saints' ambitions cannot be completed, their cultivation will be fixed in the middle thousand worlds of the world of the Lord of the world, and they cannot go further.

When a part of the grand aspirations is completed, the blank sutras will appear corresponding scriptures that expound the ideas of the Buddhas of the Elysian Realm or the Heavens established by Western Buddhism.

These scriptures, if they are obtained by people who are destined to begin to explain the principles of Buddhism with their own ideals, may be able to become a Buddha, but for Tang Sanzang, a figure who needs to preach in the East as soon as possible, it is not a cure for diseases.

As soon as the women heard Shen Long say that this was the true scripture of the Great Wish, they already understood the relationship, although they were a little surprised, but they also accepted Shen Long's explanation.

As she was talking, Chang'e suddenly frowned and said, "This journey to the west is coming to an end, what is the West going to do?"

"Guanyin Bodhisattva is going to do something to them? What's going on, it seems that he is also trying to show his mind to the saints of the teachings?"

Seeing this cloud road, Tang Seng was no longer surprised, but trembling, protecting the scriptures, but even so, he was still blown down by a strong wind, Tang Seng held the scriptures, and the three of Sun Monkey wanted to hold Tang Seng in the air, but they were as heavy as a mountain, helpless.

The group fell, just into the river, the apostles grabbed the scriptures, paddled pasture, at this moment, suddenly heard someone shouting: "Tang Shengseng, Tang Shengseng, come here, come here!"

Everyone was shocked. Looking up, there was no one around, and there was no boat, but it was a big white turtle poking its head out on the shore and shouting, "Master, I have been waiting for you for a few years, but I have only returned?"

Sun Xingzhi said with a smile: "Old turtle, I tired you from the year, and I have to meet again this year." ”

Sanzang, Bajie, and Sha Seng are all overjoyed. Sun Monkey shouted: "Old turtle, if you have the heart to be receiving, you can come ashore." ”

The turtle climbed up the river. The walker called for the horse to be led to him. Bajie is still squatting behind the horsetail. Tang Seng stood on the left side of the horse's neck. The sand monk stood on the right. The walker stepped on the old turtle's neck with one foot and the old turtle's head with the other and shouted, "Old turtle, walk steadily." The old turtle kicked off his four legs, tread on the water as if it were on the ground, and carried his master and apprentice, with five horses, on his body, and came back to the east bank.

This old turtle is the god of the river of Tongtian, when the goldfish in the lotus pond of Guanyin Bodhisattva robbed the god of the river god, this is also an unjust case of the year, when Shen Long asked Jiulongzi to use the heart of the sea to create a divine seal, I don't know what happened to Shen Long knocked [da] Jiulongzi, so he used this piece of divine seal to knock [da] their heads, and then fell to the ground.

Unexpectedly, the divine seal of the year happened to be the divine seal of the river god of the Tongtian River, because it was not complete, so the goldfish of Guanyin Bodhisattva took advantage of the void, seized the god position, and drove away the river god.

Shen Long knew these things in his heart, and said with a helpless smile: "This is really karma." ”

The women nodded in agreement: "It's karma, it's really insightful." This Tang monk has never asked the lifespan of this old turtle in front of Rulai, it seems that he is going to be unlucky. ”

As soon as Shen Long heard this, he saw that Lao Yuan heard that Tang Seng didn't ask him a question, and without saying a word, he overturned Tang Seng and his apprentices, picked them halfway, and threw them into the river.

It is also thanks to Tang Seng who was reborn, as light as a swallow, Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk and Xiao Bailong are all masters of making tides, and soon brought the scriptures to the shore, but the clothes and scriptures were already soaked.

Tang Seng and they immediately took out the scriptures and prepared to dry, but suddenly a gust of wind rose, the universe waved, a thunderclap, shook the mountains and rivers, a crash, flying sand and stones, and then ghosts cried wolves, clouds and mist filled the clouds, and the heavens and the earth overturned.

Sun Monkey picked up the golden stick and grinned, left and right support, the wind and rain, thunder and lightning, demons and demons can not get close, the heavens can see it, and their hearts are suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the most calamity, the calamity of the protection of the scriptures!!"
