Acting as a god and Buddha: starting from Guanzi

Chapter 222: The King of Ghosts is greedy and confused about cause and effect, and the World Honored One is born with great joy

After Meng Yuan and the other three left, Lord Desolate Bones returned to his palace, holding the Crocodile God's Primordial Soul Bead and the White Bone Demon Refining Tower with great joy and couldn't put it down.

Make big!
I should have known that I should have blackmailed him more, Lord Desolate Bone thought to himself.

At this moment, a skeleton ghost reported at the door: "Master Qi, the Master Luanji of the Sea of ​​Confusion is here."

"Huh? What's this guy doing here? Did he hear that I made a lot of money to fight against the autumn wind? No, this happened not long ago, how could he know about it?"

"Please!"

After a while, Luanji, who was all wet, walked into the hall: "Fellow Taoist Desolate Bones, my Taoist practice has increased a lot after not seeing it for many years!"

The two of them were old acquaintances, and he obviously felt that Lord Desolate Bones seemed to be getting stronger again.

"Haha, fellow Taoist Luanji doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for any reason. You must not be specifically here to praise me, right? What kind of wind brings you to this bitter cold place like mine?"

"Fellow Taoist Desolate Bones is in charge of the ghost market. The bitter cold is no match for my Confused Sea. I just passed by and felt the rejuvenation of Taoist Taoist, so I came here to visit."

"I see, fellow Taoist Luanji, please take a seat quickly. Come, prepare a banquet quickly!"

For a time, there was a feast and excitement in the temple.

While they were drinking wine, the Desolate Bone Master immediately boasted that he had blackmailed three monks not long ago and had gained a lot. He also showed off the Yuan Shen Pearl and the White Bone Demon Refining Tower.

"Two divine objects!" Master Luanji said in surprise.

A divine soul and a divine weapon. Is a monk so wealthy?

"Taoist friends are lucky. I don't know what those monks look like. If I meet my brother and get rich, I will never forget the kindness of Taoist friends." Master Luanji immediately asked.

At this moment, the desolate bone master waved his hand, and a ball of blue flames suddenly appeared. Three figures appeared, each riding a golden horse, a green lion, and a white elephant.

"Who are these three people?"

Master Luanji suddenly breathed a little faster. He looked at the white-clothed monk riding the golden jade. He felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Then, he finally remembered that more than ten years ago, at the invitation of the Lord Blood Eye, he and the Lord of Howling went to Tianxue Mountain for a meeting. Then a monk in white descended from the sky and beat the three of them. Although there were some changes in the middle, But that monk did leave a big shadow on Him.

"Fellow Taoist Desolate Bones, is he the one you robbed?" Master Luanji asked, pointing to Meng Yuan's figure in the screen.

"Exactly."

Master Luanji immediately sighed: "How about returning the things to him, fellow Taoist? This monk has some evil ways."

"Haha, how could I be intimidated by a mere monk? Fellow Daoist Luanji, how come you are becoming less courageous the longer you stay in the sea?"

Alas, I have advised you all you need to do, so don’t regret it when the time comes.
The land of Youchuan.

In the dark and deep waters of the River of Forgetfulness, countless unconscious souls are floating below. They may enter the underworld and be reincarnated at a certain moment, or they may sink there forever.

Three figures stepped forward, followed by a continuous stream of dead souls. These were naturally Meng Yuan and the others.

There were many ghosts and monsters who came to cause trouble along the way, but under the education of the golden retriever, the green lion, and the white elephant, they all honestly stated that they would abandon evil and do good in the future, and strive to be the moral pioneers of the virtual underworld.

"Is this Wangchuan?" Miao Le stepped forward and leaned slightly to watch. Suddenly an arm stretched out from under the water, but he gently dodged it.

This should have fallen into the River of Forgetfulness not long ago. If it had been a long time ago, it would have sunk into the depths.

"Amitabha, all living beings suffer."

Meng Yuan and his two senior brothers then used their merits to build a golden bridge, leading directly to the underworld. The dead souls lined up and walked up. After they got on the bridge, they all bowed to the three of them before leaving.

At this time, Zhuge Li's figure appeared next to him.

"I would like to thank Master and my two uncles for escorting me to this Netherworld. However, after seeing each other for thousands of miles, we parted ways, so I left."

Wisely said: "Disciple, my master and my two uncles are both on the road, so we must not slack off."

"Master, the disciple understands."

Then he strode onto the Golden Bridge.

At this point, Zhuge Li turned around and said, "I almost forgot. After I left, my disciple may have escaped my control. If you meet him, you can teach me a lesson."

There is no doubt that it is Mara who speaks at this moment, and he will be reincarnated together with Zhuge Li.
Then the three of them sent Zhao Daniu and ten others into the underworld. Only their remaining souls were left, and it was much more difficult for them to be reincarnated.

After seeing off the disciples, the three brothers turned around and prepared to leave.

After leaving the virtual underworld, the three of them separated. Miaoyan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital, while Miaole went mysteriously. Only Meng Yuan was ready to return to Guanyin Temple.

Although this incident in the South China Sea has not been spread among the people, it has been witnessed by Master Jiehua and Master Moshan, and has spread among the upper class, even causing panic!

Especially the visions that came from the South China Sea later, the black flames that covered the sky and the terrifying and inexplicable roars, made all the major forces terrified, fearing that they would never be able to open their eyes again, and some were even ready to run away. On the way.

Fortunately, a strong man then risked his life to go to sea to explore and found that the crisis had been resolved. This made all parties relieved, but this incident also gave them a wake-up call.

"Ancestor, this Mahayana Buddhism is too dangerous. Now that they have provoked the Poseidon, we, the Great Yan, may have to be buried with them sometime." Emperor Yan Xuan said.

Although the grievances between Mahayana Buddhism and Poseidon have nothing to do with them, to the gods, what does destroying you have to do with you?

This time, didn't the whole Great Yan just pass by the edge of danger?

Taizu Dayan asked: "What do you mean?"

“Kick out Mahayana Buddhism.”

As a ruler, Emperor Yan Xuan has felt that the foundation of his rule has been shaken. Nanhai County, which he originally planned to take back, is now completely out of control. The rapid development of Mahayana Buddhism is much more powerful than that of the Wanfa Sect.

"It's not that easy."

Taizu Dayan said that he had personally gone to the South China Sea to explore, and the terrifying aura remaining there made him feel extremely frightened. There were more than one or two dead gods!
Moreover, now that the wonderful evil has become a god, they are still allies, and there are naturally good aspects as well as bad aspects.

"Let's wait and see."

"Yes, ancestor." Emperor Yan Xuan had no choice but to agree.

At this time, Meng Yuan had returned to Nanhai County and sent out invitations to monks from all over the world to come to listen to the Mahayana scriptures and teach the Bodhisattva Vehicle practice methods on the third day of the next month. Immediately, countless monks flocked to Nanhai.

There were too many monks this time, so Meng Yuan chose a spacious place by the seaside for his sermon. Although it was a place where he could eat and sleep in the open air, it would not be an obstacle to the devout monks who were dedicated to seeking the Tao.

Thousands of monks came from all over the country at once. Since Meng Yuan became a god, this has been the No. 1 Buddhist sect in the Southern Wilderness for thousands of years. Even Buddhist disciples from Daluo outside Dayan came from thousands of miles away.

The monks sat on the beach one by one, waiting quietly.Suddenly, a figure sat on the rock in front of him out of thin air. Meng Yuan was dressed in white clothes and holding a scripture in his hand. He seemed to be spreading the radiance of wisdom to the monks. Next to him was a golden feng shui lying under the stone.

"Disciples pay homage to the Bodhisattva!"

All the monks chanted in unison. At this moment, Meng Yuan was no longer an ordinary monk in their eyes, but a faith, a lamp, a Buddha, and a Bodhisattva.

Meng Yuan lowered his head and said, "No need to be polite."

Immediately, there was no unnecessary nonsense, Meng Yuan started speaking directly, and for a while, the sky was filled with flowers and the ground was filled with golden lotuses. It was indescribable and mysterious.

On the other side, in a small imperial palace somewhere far away in the Western Wilderness, many palace maids and attendants were running back and forth nervously, holding hot water and towels in their hands. In the room, a woman was lying on the bed and moaning in pain. .

The midwife stood aside and said, "Madam, please work hard, you haven't seen the end yet."

"Ah! It hurts so much——"

The madam felt as if her body was about to burst, and the painful torture had caused her to hallucinate.

She looked at the ceiling, and saw a monk wearing a hundred-fold robe, followed by a white elephant with three pairs of teeth, and seemed to be holding a baby in his arms.

"Madam, you will give birth to a saint."

Immediately, the baby turned into a golden light and fell into the lady's body. Suddenly, a strange fragrance appeared in the whole room. The lady only felt pain under her armpits. Suddenly, a flesh ball rolled out and turned into a baby, wow wow big. cry.

The mother-in-law who delivered the baby and the maids who served her were suddenly shocked. She gave birth from under the armpit?
Everyone looked at each other, but they saw the baby walking seven steps in all directions, raising his right hand, lowering his left hand and saying: "I am the only one in heaven and on earth."

After saying that, he immediately fell to the ground and burst into tears. The maids panicked and picked him up: "Madam, he is a prince."

At this moment, the king came and heard that he had given birth to a son. He was extremely happy. The attendants on the side immediately talked about the strange thing just now. The newborn prince actually came out from under his arm and behaved strangely. Could it be? .
The king looked gloomy and then entered the delivery room, where the prince was lying quietly next to his wife.

"Your Majesty, I just had a strange dream."

"Saint. Saint!" The king was very shocked after hearing this, and then beamed with joy. A saint was about to be born in his Sakyamuni tribe!
At the same time, on a certain mountain, Miao Le and Bai Xiang were sitting cross-legged on a large rock, looking tired but smiling.

Miao Yan, who was a guest at Zhuge's house, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Donor Zhuge, all living beings are in the cycle of reincarnation, and if you don't correct yourself, even an Arhat will not be able to escape it."

"Master, tell me straight. I'm not interested in your Buddhist ways." Zhuge Yuansheng said coldly. He originally agreed to send his grandson to Guanyin Temple because the ancestor of the royal family became a god, and the imperial power had unprecedentedly overridden the power of ministers. He had to add more protection for his family.

Unexpectedly, he eventually lost his grandson's life. Although he knew that the world was fickle and someone might die at the next moment, just like the once-famous general who ruled the country, it was impossible for him to have a good look at Miaoyan. .

"The poor monk means that my disciple has entered reincarnation and is now reborn elsewhere."

Zhuge Yuan suddenly said excitedly: "I hope the master will tell me where my grandson was reincarnated."

Miaoyan shook his head: "It's too far away, don't worry about the donor. He has made extraordinary achievements in this life. If he succeeds, the cause and effect will eventually become clear, and we will see you again."

"Far away? Could it be that it's not within the Southern Wilderness?"

Seeing Miaoyan nodding, Zhuge Yuan suddenly sighed, that was indeed too far.

However, he immediately realized that this monk could even know things before and after reincarnation. This magical power was vast.

On the coast of the South China Sea, Meng Yuan never stopped preaching from the beginning until Zhuge Li was reincarnated and made a great wish, "I am the only one in heaven and on earth", and immediately stopped teaching.

"Bodhisattva, why did you stop talking at this point?" a monk asked.

Meng Yuandao: "My fate with you has ended. In 80 years, the World Honored Master will preach the Dharma to all living beings."

Zhuge Li is the reincarnation of his remnant soul. He has learned the true meaning of Mahayana in Guanyin Temple, and has joined forces with Mara. In addition, he has a piece of sustenance from Heng Yuan in his body. He is the destined World Honored One, and Mahayana Buddhism will usher in its heyday.

Then he stood up and left.

"Bodhisattva, will you no longer be in the monastery?"

"Don't go, Bodhisattva."

One by one, they reached out to hold Meng Yuan back and grabbed the hem of Meng Yuan's clothes.

Roar!
Jin Maohuan immediately roared to scare everyone away. Meng Yuan turned over and rode on, heading straight for the South China Sea.

"Bodhisattva, if you are confused and don't know where to find you?"

"The poor monk is in Chaoyin Cave, Putuo Mountain, Nanhai." Meng Yuan's voice came from afar.

Putuo Mountain Chaoyin Cave!The monks quickly wrote it down.

Today, the Guanyin Temple has become an empty temple, but the people in the town know that the Bodhisattva is always around, so they clean the temple voluntarily, and pilgrims also come to offer incense voluntarily.

"I heard that the holy monk has become a Buddha. Now he is at ease in a fairy mountain called Mount Putuo. I wonder if he will care about the sufferings in the world."

"Yes, my heart is not stable at all now that I am empty. It would be great if I could see the Bodhisattva again."

Two pilgrims were burning incense and chatting in the Guanyin Hall.

"If it can make the donor feel at ease, the poor monk doesn't mind."

The two turned around and immediately saw a monk in white clothes standing behind them. They said with great joy: "Bodhisattva, it's the Bodhisattva who has appeared!"

Suddenly, the temple was boiling. Pilgrims rushed in, but the Bodhisattva was nowhere to be seen. They complained one by one: "It's all your fault for scaring the Bodhisattva away by shouting nonsense."

Everyone walked out of the temple gate noisily and met a group of fishermen approaching.

"It's really dangerous. Why did a huge wave suddenly arise? Fortunately, we met the Bodhisattva who calmed the storm and allowed us to return safely."

Everyone hurriedly asked: "Have you also met the Bodhisattva?"

"Yeah, right on the sea."

"Hey, I met a big insect on the road a few days ago, and it was Bodhisattva who saved me."

"No, I was in Yuanzhou City the day before yesterday."

Everyone suddenly discovered that at the same moment, there were Bodhisattvas appearing in different places!
"Well, it is true that Bodhisattvas have never given up on us. Bodhisattvas are everywhere. Prayers are answered in thousands of places, and the sea of ​​suffering is always a boat to save people."

Everyone immediately remembered the sound they heard that time, and the twelve great wishes resounded in the hearts of all living beings.

"Namo Guanyin Bodhisattva! Great mercy and compassion saves the world."
