Chapter 850: A Difficult Choice
Whether it is from the potential value or from the existing role, the golden lotus is indispensable to Buddhism.
Therefore, if you want to take away the golden lotus, it is definitely wishful thinking.
The two of them also counted on him to transform into an innate treasure, really straighten his waist, and compete with the Xuanmen.
Although this wish seems a bit far away.
Especially after the saint was grounded.
But it's better to have hope than not to see hope.
"Hehe, this doesn't work, that doesn't work, you mean that you Buddhists don't want to pay any price, so just give up?
This time, without waiting for Lao Tzu to react, Yuan Shi Tianzun sneered.
I've never seen such a brazen person. The saint's face was lost, and the Yuan Shi Tianzun was left with him.
"It's not that we don't want to pay the price, it's just that the price is too big for us to afford. ”
Then he bowed his head and said.
"The price is too great, do you mean that Lu Jian and the others are not worth two spirit treasures?"
Yuan Shi Tianzun said with a smile.
This is true, if Zhun Ti and others are not careful, I am afraid that Buddhism will be detached from morality.
Although I know that the treasure is important, but it is a human being, it is inevitable that there will still be pimples in my heart.
In particular, in addition to the people of the Buddhist sect themselves, there are some who joined later.
These people are not so wholeheartedly devoted to Buddhism. The reason for joining is simply that Buddhism can bring them benefits.
If there is no benefit, but it harms their interests, then I am afraid the situation will be different.
"People must be saved, but they can be changed to another condition. ”
Then he said solemnly,
"If the two Taoist friends really have no intention of negotiating, although we are not the opponents of the two, but if we have done one, we may not be afraid of the two. ”
"Yes, you don't have to sow discord, the Qinglian Treasure Color Flag is okay, but the Golden Lotus is a heavy treasure for my Buddhism to suppress luck, and it can't be handed over no matter what, we can replace it with a blessed divine pestle. ”
Zhun Ti said categorically,
"And if you were replaced, would you hand over the Pangu flag?"
"Of course not!"
Yuan Shi Tianzun sneered without hesitation,
"However, I'm not a loser, and how can a mere golden lotus compare to Pangu Banner?"
"You ......"
Zhun Ti wanted to say something, but was pulled by the lead,
"Tianzun should make another request, this is really difficult for some strong people. ”
"Okay, in that case, hand over the five-needle pine and the Qinglian Baose Flag!"
Just in Zhun Ti, he thought that even if Lao Tzu would agree, he was silent for a long time. Just when Yuan Shi Tianzun wanted to continue to refute.
Unexpectedly, as soon as their words fell, Lao Tzu agreed without the slightest hesitation.
"This request is not too much, and the five-needle pine should not be the treasure to suppress the luck of Buddhism. ”
When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then they reacted that they had fallen into Lao Tzu's calculations.
Zhun Ti and the others figured it out, and Tongtian and the others naturally thought of it, and couldn't help but sigh secretly,
Sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy, and he quietly turned the two of them around, taking care of one and the other. ”
"Hey!"
Zhun Ti and the two glanced at each other, the corners of their mouths twitched, this time they were really going to cry.
They didn't expect that what Lao Tzu really wanted was the Qinglian Baose Flag and the Five-Needle Pine.
It's just that I'm afraid that I won't agree, so I used a trick to hide from the world.
First of all, two requests that they would never agree to would never have agreed to.
After his own refusal, he took advantage of the situation to put forward this condition.
The so-called things are only three, and this requirement is just stuck on the limit of what they can bear, and a little more can become the last straw that crushes the camel.
But it is precisely because of this that they are uncomfortable. It's like I've hit the door.
Actually, just as the two of them thought.
Dare to calculate himself, Lao Tzu just wanted to find out how to make Zhun Ti and the two of them bleed fiercely.
Especially after Fang Qingshan's victory in the battle, in order to expand the results of the battle, Lao Tzu targeted the Five Needle Pine and the Qinglian Treasure Color Flag.
The reason for these two things is simple.
There are no treasures in the West that can be used.
Better than these two treasures, it is either the treasure of the town or the spiritual treasure of the Dao, obviously they will not take it out anyway.
The two previous requests were temptation.
If the two agreed, he could also agree, but obviously, as he imagined, the two refused without hesitation.
Therefore, he first aimed at the Qinglian Treasure Color Banner and the six pure bamboos. As for the five-needle pine, it was a temporary idea.
After all, he didn't know that the five needles were loose in the hands of Buddhism.
Although the six pure bamboos and five-needle pines are also one of the top ten innate spiritual roots in the flood wilderness.
Although these two spiritual roots are better than the Qinglian Treasure Color Banner, they both have the effect of suppressing luck.
But obviously, compared with the six pure bamboos, the five-needle pine has a better effect on Fang Qingshan.
After all, this is a top-level innate spiritual root with all five elements, and for those who cultivate the way of the five elements, it is really like a tiger with wings, even if it is an innate treasure, it will not be exchanged.
After all, although the treasure is good, it is a foreign object, but the five-needle pine can assist the cultivation avenue.
Moreover, in exchange for five-needle pine. Not only will Kong Xuan's cultivation be interrupted, but he will also be separated from Buddhism.
Kong Xuan is also a person who cultivates the path of the five elements, although the five-needle pine is not as important as the five-color divine light, but after losing this treasure, the breakthrough that has no hope is even more distant.
In addition, exchanging one's own enlightenment for the interests of Buddhism, such a thing of sacrificing oneself for others will also have a pimple in anyone's heart, after all, people are selfish, not to mention, the relationship between Kong Xuan and Buddhism is not good.
The reason why he joined Buddhism was because he was forced and forced, and secondly, because he was lucky to do it.
However, if he didn't agree, it would make the other Buddhist disciples who fell into Fang Qingshan's hands deviate from morality.
They don't care how important this treasure is to Kong Xuan, and even if Lao Tzu is determined to ask for the twelve-grade golden lotus, and Zhun Ti doesn't agree, they will inevitably have a pimple in their hearts.
This is a matter of human nature.
Although there is no shortage of people who are selfless, there are more of them with their own small calculations.
Therefore, whether Zhun Ti agrees or not, this is a pit.
It's just a matter of what he chooses.
Choosing the five-needle pine, in addition to pitting the Buddha's door, in addition to slowing down the speed of Kong Xuandao, there is also one point that the other party Qingshan is particularly important.
The avenue is fighting, and the avenue is alone.
Fang Qingshan and Kong Xuan were both cultivators of the Five Elements Dao, and once someone took the lead in attaining the Five Elements Dao, it would be almost a fatal blow to the other person.
Now that Fang Qingshan is a golden immortal, and Kong Xuan has almost reached the edge of a breakthrough, it is natural for Lao Tzu to do this.
