Chapter 108: Myths and Routines Since Ancient Times
Wukong thought for a long time, but finally did not fight Wutian. One reason was that he came to Lingshan this time. Although there was a huge change, his initial idea was just to try the depth of the water. Now he tried the depth of the water here without any bottom, and he had a complete achievement. After returning, he had to think carefully about whether to reject the Jade Emperor and not mix with this muddy water.
Second, no matter how serious the lawless sins he committed, it is all the trouble for those bald donkeys. What should he do?
Why do it take this stick?
Third, Wukong saw the traces of his unscrupulous master's intervention in this muddy water. Wukong studied with Chen Ang for a long time and was no longer the simple and ignorant monkey he had ever done. He knew that his ancestor was extremely dark-hearted and rashly intervened in, he would inevitably be cheated. This matter was unpredictable, and Wukong had to be careful.
The "Tathagata's Golden Body" also gave it a very strange feeling. When it saw the Tathagata's Golden Body, it felt very strange. Now Wu Tian pointed out the mystery in it, and the strangeness in it was even more shocking. The Medicine Buddha, whose status is extremely noble, is the first three figures in Lingshan.
He was originally the Buddhist Dharma body of Emperor Donghua, but speaking of it, which one is the main identity of Emperor Donghua, is still a different saying.
Moreover, the two Bodhisattvas of Sun and Moonlight who were threatened by the Medicine Buddha were also Bodhisattvas with extremely powerful supernatural powers and magical powers in Lingshan, second only to the four great Bodhisattvas and Maitreya, and several Bodhisattvas with special identities such as Dashizhi. Wukong doesn't believe that such a Buddhist master would be almost scared by a corpse-deceived Tathagata's Dharma body. Something must have happened in this that Wukong didn't know.
"This Tan Huo Water is getting deeper and deeper... Even if I, Lao Sun, who is a good person, must be careful to drown in it!" Wukong sighed.
"I always feel that my dark-hearted ancestor is brewing and preparing to cheat me!" Wukong murmured in a low voice.
He smiled friendly to Wutian, left the Sutra Pavilion, and was about to go back to settle the score with the "Tathagata Dharma Body". "Dear bald donkey, this big devil in Wutian, let it go! I will quit the errand of the Jade Emperor tomorrow. Go back to my Huaguo Mountain to continue doing experiments. Wouldn't you be free and easy?"
Back to the Main Hall, the Tathagata Dharma body on the lotus seat was still smiling, as if it had been smiling and looking down at the world of the three realms, exuding a peaceful aura far away from the world.
Wukong rushed to it and laughed in a low voice, "Demon, you're just in trouble!"
"You gave me a way, but I told me Lao Sun to know that the true consciousness of Tathagata is still trapped in the formless realm, and is in the form and space. It will not appear at all, nor will it give me a way!" Wukong waved his iron rod and bared his teeth and threatened: "Say, where are you from? How dare you pretend to be Tathagata Buddha to deceive me!"
"If there is any ambiguity in your words, I, Old Sun, will serve you!"
"Chunch your head in the sky, and the light shines on the vast thousand. The eight winds cannot blow, and sit upright on the purple golden lotus. You Buddha and I are compassionate! Praise you Buddha and me!" The Tathagata changed his golden body to a divine seal and shamelessly sang a Buddha's name that praises himself.
Wukong lifted the stick and pointed: "Your shameless look is very charming as my master!"
"Wukong, you are so bold and naughty." Tathagata smiled and said, "I dare to speak wildly and presumptuously in front of me. Do you know that if your master Wuliang Tianzun had not taken action to stop you, you would have been suppressed by me when you made a big fuss in the Taishan Divine Court and the Jade Emperor sent an order to ask me to take action. Now you have escaped to life. Not only are you careful in your words and actions, but you have practiced well, but you have repeatedly caused troubles, but you are also presumptuous in front of me. Do you know who I am?"
Wukong sneered: "You are the corpse of Tathagata, a corpse demon born from the body of Tathagata!"
"Sun Wukong, you are obsessed with obsession and have become obsessed with the truth!" Tathagata's Dharma Body said: "I am the Venerable Sakyamuni in the Western Paradise. Because the true nature is outside the formless realm, casting magic and subduing demons, and fearing that the Lingshan Mountain will be uneasy and the demons will mingle, so I leave a thought to protect the Lingshan Holy Realm. Therefore, I am Tathagata, and Tathagata is me!"
Wukong grinned and said, "Don't you think I, Lao Sun? You killed the Medicine Master, the Buddha Light Tathagata. The whole mountain and the Lingshan Mountain regarded you as a demon. Because you were unwilling to damage the Tathagata's golden body, you were allowed to do something here, so that the old demon Wu Tianxiu can see the flaws and capture the Great Leiyin Temple."
"You are the same as him, so you are sitting here and watching so many Buddha grandsons have been killed and remain indifferent. If Shakyamuni Buddha saw his disciples and grandsons being massacred here, would he still sit on the rosette? Still want to lie to me?"
"As the saying goes, if you listen to both sides, you will be clear and partial, and you will be dark." Tathagata smiled and said, "Sun Wukong, where did you hear these words?"
Wukong pinched his waist and smiled, "Half was Wutian told me personally, and half was guessed."
Tathagata's golden body shook his head slightly and said, "It's ridiculous, absurd, you are willing to believe in him, but not me. He was the murderer who killed the entire door of Lingshan, is it true that what he said?"
Wukong: "You have some truths about this, but I wonder what you have to say?"
Tathagata's golden body said: "Sun Wukong, if you think I am a demon, that's not bad. I was originally a Tathagata's thought. Although I was contaminated by the Brahma demon and fell into the mortal world, I also retained the temperament of Shakyamuni. The Brahma demon knocked down my realm and caused me to fall into the Tathagata's fruit position, so that I could not protect the Lingshan Mountain and could not sit in the Tathagata."
"Therefore, we need to reincarnate Nirvana, return to purity, and return to the true nature, and wash away the pollution of the Brahma demon, we can become a Buddha again, restore the Tathagata's fruit position, protect the spiritual mountain, until the Tathagata's true nature defeats the Brahma demon and returns to the three realms."
"But just before my reincarnation, the Medicine Buddha suddenly took action and killed my reincarnation body Qiao Ling'er."
Wukong frowned and said, "The Medicine Buddha is an Eastern Buddha. His status is precious. How can he harm you?"
"The Brahma Demon is powerful, and he thinks that my true nature cannot come back. If that is the case, why should I keep this obstacle? He was originally Emperor Donghua of Heaven, and he is a minister with me, but his identity is not inferior to me. In the future Buddha, I belong to Maitreya, so he will of course be dissatisfied with it. In addition, the Lingshan Dharma Realm was contaminated by the Brahma Demon, and all the Buddhas and demons were full of thoughts, so it was not surprising that he took action against me."
Goku continued to question: "Then how can you kill him? Why do you want to kill him?"
"Of course, the Jade Emperor is helping me. If Emperor Donghua is asked to control Lingshan, can he continue to do this? And Sun Wukong, are you a smart person? Is it because I left a corpse and corpse transformation, or is the Medicine Buddha trying to kill the Buddha, which will cause greater harm to my Lingshan Buddhism?"
"The Jade Emperor!" Wukong looked disbelief.
"Why, can't believe it? You underestimate the Jade Emperor too much! The Jade Emperor never seemed to have shown his powerful magical powers and magic powers, but he only showed his power with authority to rule the three realms, so that a young monkey like you dared to make rashes in front of him, but this is actually just because if the Jade Emperor needs powerful power to rule the three realms, then the basic body of his rule will be shaken. Therefore, he would rather rule the three realms with rules and authority than show his strong strength." The golden body of Tathagata sighed.
"What you said seems to make some sense, but this is not the reason why you have fallen into such a field." Wukong sneered.
Tathagata sighed: "Wukong, why don't you think deeper? If there is no acquiescence of Maitreya Bodhisattva, how can the Medicine Buddha kill my reincarnation body? You must know that after the Tathagata enters the extinction, it will be the prosperous age of Maitreya! If there is Shakyamuni's reincarnation, what else does Maitreya Bodhisattva need to do?"
Sun Wukong looked horrified and could hardly accept what the Tathagata's golden body said.
Tathagata sighed and said, "So, I don't blame him. After Shakyamuni entered the extinction, it was time for Maitreya to come to life. Therefore, I am here now. I am talking to you... Sun Wukong just to complain! You are right, I am Tathagata, but I am not Sakyamuni Buddha. When the Brahma demon is contaminated with the golden body, I am no longer me!"
"Why are you telling me this?" Wukong said in confusion.
Tathagata smiled slightly: "Because there is another person in this world who can prove that I am Tathagata and he can help me."
Wukong pondered for a moment and replied, "If I guess correctly, that person is me."
"It's you, Wukong. Only you have the seventeen relics left by the ancient Buddha of Lan Deng when it was destroyed, and only you can help me to relieve my soldiers and reincarnate again. As long as you find my reincarnation body, a spiritual child with ten thousand characters on his back, and at the same time collect the eighteen relics left by Lan Deng Buddha, you can help me get rid of the interference of Brahma on me, realize Bodhi again, and achieve Tathagata. By then, my true nature will not completely escape from the three realms and defeat the Brahma demon."
"Sun Wukong, you can only save the three realms! You should defeat the Buddha for the fight."
"I feel like you are tricking me!" Wukong said suspiciously: "Why is this kind of acting development? It's like something my master would do! I can't say, where is he hiding now? He is using me to experiment!"
"Sun Wukong, don't be suspicious anymore."
The left hand of Tathagata's golden body suddenly changed into a fearless seal. His right hand naturally stretched down, his fingertips drooped, and his palms looked outward. It was the "Seal of Wishness". The two seals were released at the same time. The palms seemed like a sacred world, leading Wukong to fall into it.
