Brother Kong Xuan

Chapter 342: Those who can eat Tang Monk can obtain half of Emperor Ziwei's cultivation!

Sure enough, as the old monk finished speaking, Li Shimin immediately asked Cihang.

In Jin Ling's eyes, this look was like a fish on the hook.

No, Your Majesty, please be a little more reserved!
Today, our Great Tang is in the heyday of prosperity. No matter what sect it is, if they come to our Great Tang to preach, it will only be icing on the cake.

If we want to preach, they have to ask us to do so.

We can put forward conditions and set rules...

However, what Jin Ling didn't know was that both Li Shimin and Cihang had an idea about this matter.

A Human Emperor and a second-generation disciple of the Chan teaching who had attained the Bodhisattva status were just playing a double act here.

Only Jin Ling, a high monk who is devoted to the Tang Dynasty, is still worrying about Emperor Li Shimin.

"The Three Treasures of the Mahayana teachings are in the Great Leiyin Temple in the west, where the Buddha Tathagata is, 180,000 miles away from here."

Ten thousand eight thousand miles...

He looked at the old monk who was looking at him with a smile on his face, even though he was speaking to Li Shimin.

He looked at Li Shimin again, who was also looking at him with a smile after hearing the old monk's answer.

How could Jin Ling not understand what these two living fathers meant?
"In this case, I am willing to serve you and go to the West to seek the true scriptures to protect our king and ensure the stability of our country."

Therefore, even though Jin Ling's scalp was tingling, he could only bow and salute Li Shimin and Cihang with a willing look.

I don’t know whether I can come back alive after going west this time.

If I had known this earlier, when my master was still alive, I should have chosen the path of a warrior monk...

Therefore, Jin Ling also deliberately said a few more auspicious words in front of Li Shimin.

Jin Ling was not sure whether this scripture could save the people of the Tang Dynasty from the dire straits.

I just hope the King of Tang can send me a few more bodyguards...

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's face suddenly brightened with joy. At this moment, looking at Jin Ling in front of him, a bold idea suddenly came to Li Shimin's mind.

"Since you can do this, Master, I am willing to be your brother!"

Ok? ? ?
When these words were spoken, Jin Ling was delighted, Ci Hang was stunned, and the one in the Fire Cloud Cave even crushed the teacup in his hand.

Really...

It is impossible to guard against it!
Inside the Huoyun Cave, Suiren, who was watching everything that happened in the Taiji Palace with Fuxi and Shennong Xuanyuan, was gritting his teeth as he watched the scene before him.

Good, good, my good uncle!

Jin Ling in the Taiji Palace bowed happily to Li Shimin.

Hello, my brother. It’s not too much for your Majesty to give you a team of cavalry to protect you, right?
"But the journey to the west is long and there are many tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves. I am afraid that there is no way back. I wonder if the mage dares to go?"

Biting his back teeth lightly, Ci Hang continued to ask Jin Ling.

Why do you ask?

Isn’t Cihang afraid that Jin Ling will really refuse?

Humph, Cihang is not afraid at all.

If Jin Ling refuses now, it would be deceiving the emperor.

I’m going to Caishikou.

The reason why Cihang asked this question was to highlight Jin Ling's fearless spirit.

Even at this moment, Jin Ling had no choice but to agree.

"As the ancients said, if you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening. I am not talented enough to be compared with the saints, but I am willing to follow their example and do my best to contribute to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty."

In response, Jin Ling replied to Ci Hang with a fearless look on his face.

what……

Although he became Li Shimin's younger brother, Jin Ling could not guarantee that he would be able to come back alive from this trip.

Therefore, if possible, Jin Ling really doesn't want to go.

After all, in Jin Ling's opinion, this is simply a meaningless thing.

You need to know, from whose mouth did the Mahayana Buddhism come?
It was said by the old monk.

If that is the case, then why doesn't he just recite the scripture here?
What’s the matter? Didn’t you memorize it?
Your business level is not very good, master.

It’s really interesting. I didn’t understand why the old monk gave me the staff and robes for free.

Okay, now I know, it’s the money to buy my life.

After all, he just wanted to use his influence as the greatest monk in the Tang Dynasty to promote this school better.

However, the atmosphere had already been created, so Jin Ling naturally wouldn't refuse.

After all, the emperor's mind is unpredictable. It is much better to die on the way to the west than to die in the Caishikou of Chang'an.

The latter, at least can leave a good reputation.

And since he has already made up his mind, Jin Ling will naturally not hesitate.

Therefore, at this moment, Jin Ling looked like a great monk.

Well, just be decent.

"Those who are willing to go can obtain the right result and achieve a golden body."

In response, Ci Hang just smiled and spoke to Jin Ling in a soothing manner.

Hey, if my second brother had never entered the world, his golden body and enlightenment would have been nothing but a joke.

Jin Ling's own value no longer needs to be conferred by the so-called fruit position.

Be it a position as a god in heaven or an attainment in the West, to Jin Ling, it is not even the icing on the cake.

But now that the second brother has entered the secular world, for a mortal and a Buddhist disciple, the golden body and enlightenment is a huge temptation.

Well, Cihang knows very well that if you want the horse to run, you can't force it to run by forcing it to do something unmanageable.

Instead, you should make a promise that is enough to make their heart move.

"Amitabha."

In response, Jin Ling simply said this to the old monk transformed by Cihang.

Jin Ling is not very clear about how other masters use the Buddhist name "Amitabha", but Jin Ling usually recites this Buddhist name when he has nothing to say.

Golden body and true fruit?

Please, which Bodhisattva are you?

"Hahaha!"

In response, Cihang just laughed towards the sky and walked out of the hall.

When they walked outside the hall, Cihang also revealed his true form as a Bodhisattva.

However, it was only a flash, and the figure of Guanyin Bodhisattva completely disappeared in front of Jin Ling.

Jin Ling silently watched the fleeting Guanyin Bodhisattva, but there was no trace of piety on his face.

Go to the West to seek the true scriptures, and after success you will obtain the golden body.

What a straightforward transaction...

At this moment, Jin Ling suddenly discovered that the so-called Buddha did not seem as noble as he had imagined.

There seems to be no essential difference between them and ourselves, ordinary people.

Inexplicably, Jin Ling suddenly felt that the so-called golden body and righteousness did not seem to have much appeal anymore.

After all, even if you go to the Great Leiyin Temple and achieve the so-called golden body.

What’s the difference between this and my current situation in the Tang Dynasty?

But soon, a hint of determination appeared in Jin Ling's eyes.

This golden body and true fruit must still be obtained.

After all, when you feel that it shouldn't be like this, what you should do is not to reject it or destroy it.

Instead, accept it, join it, and ultimately change it.

"My dear brother, you must be careful on this journey of thousands of miles." At this time, Li Shimin also came to Jin Ling's side, unable to hide his joy and expressed his concern for Jin Ling.

Well, Li Shimin is really happy now.

There was no other reason. The fact that he and Jin Ling had established their brotherhood made Li Shimin extremely happy.

As for Jin Ling, will he still acknowledge this cause and effect after his return?

That doesn't matter at all.

What’s important is that when Jin Ling goes west this time, a distance of 18,000 miles, his younger brother’s name will also spread throughout Nanshanbuzhou and Xiniuhezhou.

In this way, this status is basically confirmed.

As long as the Martial Ancestor does not explicitly refuse or hold himself accountable after his return.

This status would be enough for me to live on for the rest of my life.

Li Shimin really understood what it meant to take advantage of the situation.

What I mean is, with the title of the Martial Ancestor's brother, if he enters the underworld one day, he can at least get a place in the queue on the Yellow Springs Road, right?

However, I also have to work hard. After bidding farewell to Jin Ling, I have to find ways to make more achievements. After all, only in this way can I truly bring out the value of the title of Brother of the Martial Ancestor.

So how do you enter the Fire Cloud Cave?

Thinking about the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin recalled the path of enlightenment of the Yellow Emperor.

There are still too many countries in this Southern Continent...

The Great Leiyin Temple, 108,000 miles away...

If the Great Leiyin Temple itself was a part of the Tang Dynasty, would there be no need for so much trouble?
With his eyes flickering slightly, Li Shimin slowly suppressed his restless ambition and looked at Jin Ling with eyes full of concern.

……

"Master hasn't come yet?"

At the foot of the Five Finger Mountain, Sun Wukong took the spiritual fruit handed to him by his senior sister Angzhu, and while eating it, he asked Angzhu.

"Just wait here steadily and cherish the peaceful time you have now."

Glancing at Sun Wukong, Angzhu's eyes showed a hint of heartache.

"The journey to the west begins, and you will suffer."

After saying this, Angzhu continued to add something to Sun Wukong.

"Oh? What do you mean, Senior Sister?"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately asked Ang Zhu.

Sun Wukong was mentally prepared for how many setbacks this road would have.

But it would be better if we could get some news in advance.

"All the quasi-saints in the world have entered the arena. It is not clear what the six saints will do, but in my opinion, they will also take action."

Without waiting for Ang Zhu to speak, Nezha, who was feeding a grape into Yang Jian's mouth, spoke softly to Sun Wukong.

“Not only that, the various sacred beings with clean backgrounds have already sent their disciples to contact them. The journey to the west will be an opportunity for them to become disciples of the Quasi-Saints.”

As Nezha finished speaking, Ao Bing, who was sitting in front of the Five Finger Mountain with his legs crossed, also added a sentence.

"In addition, if you want to go to Xiniu Hezhou, you must cross the West Sea. According to gossip, Wuzhiqi has already opened a cave in the West Sea."

"Wuzhiqi?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment. After subconsciously looking at Yang Jian, he looked at Ao Bing at the same time.

"The quasi-saint who killed Shan Shi is the right-hand man that my Dragon Clan Highness trusts. Before that, he was the Grand Marshal of the Four Seas Clan."

Ao Bing shrugged, raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Sun Wukong silently.

"How did you know?"

Sun Wukong blinked his eyes with a tingling scalp and looked at Ao Bing in confusion.

"I have a cousin from the West Sea."

Ao Bing looked at Sun Wukong helplessly and said silently.

What do you think is the surname of the Dragon King of the West Sea?
"It has now spread in the world of earthly immortals that the man who sought the scriptures in the Tang Dynasty was the Emperor Ziwei who came into the world. If you eat this, you can obtain half of his cultivation."

Before Sun Wukong could say anything, Jingwei told him what she knew.

The earthly immortal world is actually a general term for the immortal world. As the power of the heavenly court grows,

The immortals also divided immortals into two types.

Those who are granted the ordination and ascend to heaven are called celestial beings.

Except for the celestial immortals, all the scattered immortals, whether they are human immortals, demon immortals, or any other kind of immortals, are all called earthly immortals.

This has nothing to do with the level of cultivation, it is just a distinction of identity.

Therefore, Zhen Yuanzi was also given the title of the ancestor of earthly immortals.

After all, Zhen Yuanzi is indeed the most senior among the earthly immortals.

As for Hongjun and the Three Pure Ones, they don’t count.

"Isn't this... too ridiculous?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong looked at Jingwei with a distorted expression.

"You are so naive, right? You don't understand, right?"

After glancing at Sun Wukong with disdain, Ao Bing slowly and leisurely mocked him.

"It doesn't matter whether it's ridiculous or not. It doesn't matter whether anyone believes it or not. What matters is that the monsters need a reason like this to attack the teacher. After all, they can't just arrest him without any motive, right?"

"The people are going to suffer..."

Sun Wukong opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time, and finally could only say this dryly.

That's really far-fetched...

However, compared to these, Sun Wukong thought of those innocent mortals.

For those mortals, let alone Wuzhiqi who killed Shanshi, even if it was a small human immortal, it would be a disaster!
"No, we are bound by the Heavenly Laws above and the Human Emperors of the Fire Cloud Cave below. No one will joke with ordinary humans."

Hearing this, Ao Bing spoke to Sun Wukong without any hesitation.

As he spoke, Ao Bing glanced at Yang Jian imperceptibly.

You must know that the last person who attacked a mortal is still being suppressed under Peach Mountain.

The Jade Emperor’s sister is like this, who would dare to do such a thing?
"They are just trying to make things difficult for you."

Finally, Ao Bing said this to Sun Wukong.

"That's fine."

Hearing this, Sun Wukong grinned.

"But if we do this, I'm afraid it will attract a lot of not-so-smart monsters to join us, right?"

As Sun Wukong's voice fell, Yang Jian's voice also sounded quietly.

Although this is hard to explain, Yang Jian feels that if the number is expanded to a certain extent, it will always attract some greedy guys.

"Then it's up to you."

In response, Ao Bing simply said this to Sun Wukong and Yang Jian.

In fact, in Ao Bing's opinion, it is easy to distinguish between those with background and those without background.

After all, he has a background. Let alone the two of them, even if Jin Chanzi and Bian Zhuang were added, the four of them would not be able to defeat him together.

……

"Brother, be careful on your journey!"

At this time, outside the city of Chang'an, Li Shimin, accompanied by civil and military officials, handed the reins of the fiery red horse that suddenly appeared in his bedroom last night and spoke human language to Jin Ling. Then Li Shimin spoke to Jin Ling with deep meaning.

This horse...

It seems he is one of the Four Holy Ones of the North Pole?
