540, Monkey General(1/2)
Tang Seng was a scholar who learned from the scriptures, which he knew.
When the Dragon King of Jinghe Dragon Resentment was in trouble with the palace, Guanyin Bodhisattva took action to resolve the matter. These deeds were all for the preparation of Master Xuanzang's pursuit of scriptures later. Even if he was unaware of it in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, it seemed like a fog, but now that the scriptures have been retrieved, even ordinary people can see the whole picture from it.
What's more, he, the new emperor who is far more intelligent than ordinary people.
Those who have learned the scriptures are in such a big situation.
What about the preacher...
I'm afraid he will only be strong but not weak. Even without the escort of Guanyin Bodhisattva, any Buddha or Bodhisattva who comes to the West will be difficult for him to resist. If the Western Buddhism can do this, he will definitely say hello to the Eastern Taoist Sect, and the situation cannot be reversed by his own strength.
"Please also ask the teacher to say it clearly."
Li Tai suppressed his inner horror and bowed to ask.
The more information he hears, the time he can have to prepare. If the preacher of the scriptures had not given him guidance, it would have been difficult for him to know the "position" of Buddhism in his life.
"This sentence is not my guidance."
Bai Gui laughed, "In the 21st year of Zhenguan, the late emperor invited all the ministers and asked about the nicknames of all officials. At that time, Li Junxian said that his nickname was Wu Niang, but he was later found a prisoner and executed by the late emperor."
"The teacher said..."
Li Tai didn't know about this at this time. Zhenguan North Korea rarely killed meritorious officials, especially for no reason. The old emperor founded the Tang Dynasty with Emperor Gaozu, ascended the throne at a young age, and was unparalleled in generals, so there was no need to suspect meritorious officials. The unjust killing Li Junxian caused a big storm at that time.
In the 21st year of Zhenguan, the late emperor demoted Li Junxian and executed Li Junxian on other charges. In the court at that time, it was believed that the late emperor was old and stupid, no longer as wise as before. Of course, in addition to thinking that the late emperor was stupid, there were also rumors, which were the saying "The Female Martial Arts Master the World".
Now, Bai Gui’s old story is brought up again.
Wu Xi's name contains the word "Wu", and she is a daughter again. It is obvious that the late emperor really killed Li Junxian unjustly. The real prophecy of "the female martial arts masters the world" is related to Wu Xi.
"This woman cannot be killed..."
"You can't do another way."
Li Tai was thinking a lot.
After he sat on this throne, he naturally refused to hand over the throne to others. However, there was support from Wu Yu, and the Taoist sect agreed with this matter. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit it.
He went to see Bai Gui again, but when he saw that Bai Gui had never spoken, he did not mention the matter again.
This is the biggest wake-up that teacher Bai Gui gave him.
"I will invite Wu Zi into the palace tomorrow."
He said.
After the two finished their conversation, Bai Gui nodded and left, walking like flowing water, without any delay.
He left the Lizheng Hall and ascended with the clouds.
"Mr. Liu is truly worthy of being a god..."
In Chang'an City, the court officials who knew Bai Gui were praised.
...
However, Bai Gui did not really leave Chang'an City. The reason why he pretended to be raised and ascended was because he did not want to be disturbed by others anymore, so he used this to break the world and not get involved in the cause and effect of the world.
After helping Princess Iron Fan in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea, Princess Iron Fan said that he would come to Chang'an City to express his gratitude in a few days. After finishing this matter, he would not have any concerns.
Four or five days later.
Princess Iron Fan is late.
"Although I, Cuiyun Mountain, is rich, Taoist Bai is different from the past. It is really hard to find the gifts to choose from. After spending so many days, I finally found a gift for thanks."
She said apologetically.
It was agreed to go to Chang'an in a few days to thank Bai Gui, but she delayed for a few days. Although a few days were only a moment for the immortal god, she also needed to apologize.
Today is different from the past.
In the past, Bai Gui was just a simple person, Cao Guan, and she was not very good at taking it. Later, Bai Gui was promoted to the position. When she was in Moyun Cave in Jilei Mountain, she still couldn't recognize her identity. After the incident with Red Boy, she truly understood what the heir of the people's education was.
With these four words alone, even if Bai Gui’s cultivation is not enough to praise, it is enough to be rampant in the earthly world.
But Bai Gui's cultivation is not simple either.
There is a lot of things in the inside and face. Such people are the most difficult to offend.
"Fellow Daoist Iron Fan, you and I have been together for many years."
"Why do you need to bring a gift? Just come..."
Bai Gui reached out to get the thank-you gift from Princess Iron Fan. When he saw that it was some gold foil, but these gold foils were a bit unusual. While he looked at it with his spiritual sense, he spoke politely.
But after he spoke, he suddenly felt absent.
What does it mean to not bring gifts... Just come.
Princess Iron Fan's face turned red and spat lightly, "Master Bai is rude, I am a married man. Please pay attention to your words, otherwise... Otherwise, even if my family is broken, I will not suffer such defilement as you."
Her apricot eyes showed a hint of determination.
It seems to be telling the truth.
Bai Gui also felt absent-minded. He bypassed the topic and asked about the thank-you gift from Princess Iron Fan. "This gold foil, which I see, seems extraordinary, has a power of faith. Is this gold foil... peeled off from the statue of God?"
"Master Bai's eyes."
Princess Iron Fan praised, "This gold foil was once the golden body of the statue of the Tongbang monkey. When the Tongbang monkey was still an ordinary woman, she died because she protected the people in the town. So the people respected her kindness and built the Temple of the General of the Divine Monkey for him, and the stone statue of the Golden Body was shaped for him in the temple."
"But this monkey is a good man. After becoming a half-god and half-Buddha, he will pity the world. If a disaster occurs somewhere, let the messenger sit down and hold his golden body and gold foil to treat the victims. The gold foil was originally gold, followed by his golden body..."
"When I was in Cuiyun Mountain, I heard that there were statues of fellow Taoists in the monks, so I searched for these gold foils in various countries in Xiniu Hezhou, gathered them together as a gift and presented them to Master Bai."
She explained slowly.
The monkey in this world is not Yuan Hong, the four-destroyed star king, but another monkey. In other words, the monkey is just a species that evolved from the creatures of the monkey. For example, in the Huaguo Mountain, there are two red-butt monkeys and two monkeys, guiding Sun Wukong to Aolai Country to get weapons for the monkeys to perform.
"Fellow Daoist Iron Fan is intent."
Bai Gui nodded with satisfaction and put the gold foil into his sleeve.
When he reached his level, to be honest, he really didn't like the ordinary thank you gifts. In the huge Moyun Cave of Jilei Mountain, the accumulation of the Fox King of Long Live, he only looked at one Three Life Stone. Now he doesn't even look at the Three Life Stone.
It is difficult to see the treasures of heaven and earth, but this half Buddha and half god are the golden foil condensed by the golden body of merit and mind power. This can be regarded as a first-class spiritual object. Using this to comprehend the way of faith is a good treasure.
As for why this divine monkey general used "gold foil" to exchange for money.
The values are obviously not equal, and there are too many differences.
This is not something that is difficult to understand.
The body of a half-god and half-Buddha was heard that he had not yet become a Buddha in his practice, which means he became a celestial immortal. Sun Wukong had never mastered the art of turning stones into gold, let alone this monkey.
Jinzi himself cannot use magic power to transform it, so he can only use this stupid method.
"This divine monkey general is a disciple of Maitreya Buddha."
"I will observe him and have such compassion, and I will definitely become a Buddha in the future."
Princess Iron Fan smiled and said, "If Master Bai doesn't use these gold foils, he can send them to the Temple of the Divine Monkey General and exchanged them for him, which can be regarded as making a good relationship with him."
These gold foils are condensed from the golden bodies of the Tongbang monkeys, and their importance to the Tongbang monkeys is self-evident. Giving these gold foils to the Tongbang monkeys is equivalent to obtaining the future good fate of a Buddhist Buddha.
Of course, this good fate, generally speaking, is not very precious to Baigui. What is more precious is the gold foil itself.
One day later, Princess Iron Fan left.
The next day, Tang Seng, Sun Wukong and others came to see him.
"Amitabha." Tang Seng clasped his hands together to apologize, "I didn't want to pay attention to Bian Ji's affairs, but his heart was not pure. After all, he was not from my Buddhist sect. He never thought that he and Princess Gaoyang went to Master Bai's mansion to find Master Bai. The new emperor ascended the throne, Bian Ji came to ask, but I didn't open the door to meet him, which was considered a complete fate."
He spoke of this and his words were filled with sighs.
In fact, he was still a little reluctant to give up Bian Ji, the disciple. Bian Ji was smart and could inherit his legacy from many of his disciples in the future. But unexpectedly, Bian Ji was not upright in his mind. However, he still felt reluctant and had never made up his mind.
However, Bian Ji offended Bai Gui, which forced him to make a decision.
Otherwise, the end of the debate is still to be between.
The view of shame is determined by Confucianism. In Buddhism, although the behavior of defending the precepts is considered to break the precepts, this breaking the precepts is not as unforgivable as the worldly recognized.
Eating meat is considered breaking the precept, and drinking alcohol is considered breaking the precept...
However, the three religions are united, and how to judge them depends on one's heart. Monk Bianji was the one whom Tang Monk endured the pros and cons after weighing the pros and cons.
Buddhist matters are indispensable.
Ana and Kashyapa, aren’t it that they have blackmailed him for benefits?
"Master Xuanzang is polite."
Bai Gui nodded, "After all, his six senses are not pure and he has no chance of the great way."
Although he recited Huang Ting quietly in the mansion, he also knew that Monk Bian Ji was sentenced to half-behead by the new emperor Li Tai to calm the hearts of scholars all over the world.
Fang Xuanling is a benchmark for scholars all over the world. The prime minister who comes from the generals and looks like a good match cannot avoid Fang Xuanling. So even without him, with the relationship between Li Tai and Princess Gao Yang, Li Tai would not give up his face to protect Monk Bian Ji. Monk Bian Ji will definitely not die well, but it is just early or late.
"Master Xuanzang resigned today. It seems that he has achieved his merits and is ready to return to Lingshan."
Bai Gui laughed.
