For this reason, although Buddhism was blocked by the three religions and could not fully enter Dongsheng Shenzhou as expected, it still left some seeds in the Tang Dynasty.

The Human Emperor Li Shimin has always been a little uneasy because his methods for ascending to power were too cruel, including killing his father and killing his brother.

This gave Buddhism an opportunity. Although the dragon clan was powerful this time, the Dragon King of Jinghe was beheaded by Wei Zheng and then demanded his life from Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

However, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was still plotted by the masters in the ancient world with extraordinary means, and the soul was abandoned to the underworld. After arriving at the City of Fusi, all the innocent souls appeared to demand their lives from the Tang Dynasty King.

This frightened Li Shimin. After hearing that the judge and Yama said it was useful to hold water and land rituals, he returned the favor with an attitude of attaching great importance to Buddhism.

Of course, all this is also a plan of Buddhism. For this reason, Buddhism asked Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, one of the four great Bodhisattvas, to go squat in the underworld a hundred years ago.

You must know that the human emperors all have human luck, and none of the founding emperors of the Li Dynasty of the human race had 05 blood in their hands.

The human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth, and there is no way to get close to the realm of Daluo Jinxian, let alone ordinary ghosts. Even cultivating to become a turtle immortal is useless. This can only mean that Buddhism has a grand plan.

How could Li Shimin, who didn't know how to practice, understand these teachings? After returning to the sun, he worshiped the Buddha with awe and carried out water and land Dharma gatherings.

The Water and Land Dharma Assembly is one of the largest and most meritorious Dharma assemblies in Buddhism. Its full name is"The Dharma Realm Saints' Water and Land Dharma Assembly." It usually lasted seven days and nights, up to forty-nine days, and was called the"King of the Dharma Assembly."

This Dharma Assembly also required a lot of manpower, but this was nothing to the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. He gathered a thousand and two people. Hundreds of eminent monks performed various wonderful sutras at Huasheng Temple in Chang'an City.

One day of auspiciousness and thousands of auspicious lights. The benevolent wind is light and gentle, and the sun is very beautiful. Thousands of officials wear rings on the front and back, and the flags of the Five Guards line up on both sides. Holding gold melons and holding axes, they are facing each other; crimson gauze candles, royal incense, and mist. Dragons are flying and phoenixes are dancing, and eagles are flying.

Among these 1,200 monks, one person stood out and gained Li Shimin's attention.

That is Master Xuanzang. This man has been a monk since he was a child. He has been fasting and receiving precepts since he was born. Thousands of scriptures are omnipotent; the immortal sound of the Buddha's name is omnipotent.

On the other side, in the Great Thunder Sound Temple on Mount Sumeru, Tathagata Buddha also realized that this calamity was the right time to go westward, so he had the time to take action.

Although this calamity is not as severe as in the past, for Buddhism, it is related to whether it can prosper. Naturally, they will not take it lightly. Tathagata Buddha looked around and said:"Guanyin, please accept the Three Treasures and go to the Tang Dynasty. Inform Jiang Liu'er of the great cause of traveling westward"

"How good!"

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva in Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea, in compliance with the Tathagata Buddha's decree, accepted a cassock of brocade bats, a nine-ring tin staff, and three golden hoops, and kept them secretly.

These three treasures are all innate. Lingbao, in today's prehistoric times, is very important. What makes Guanyin even more excited is that he can gain a lot of merit by going to the Tang Dynasty. After all, this is a good thing that will help his journey to the west.

Guanyin took his boy wood to the territory of the Tang Dynasty. , when she stopped outside the capital, she saw that there was a water and land ceremony going on here.

The flags were fluttering, and the canopy was shining brightly. The flags were fluttering, and the sky was colorful. The canopy was shining brightly, and the sun was shining brightly with red lightning. The appearance of the World Honored One was a golden elephant. Zhenzhen, the Arhat's jade face is majestic.

Immortal flowers are placed in the vase, and sandalwood is burned in the furnace. There were plates and colorful cases piled with strange candies. The eminent monks listed and recited the scriptures, wishing to free the lonely souls from suffering.

Guanyin was also greatly surprised when he saw it. Today's human race believes in Buddhism. This is undoubtedly a good thing. As long as the journey to the west is over, Let Tang Monk bring Buddhist scriptures into the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism will gain a lot of luck!

Of course, Guanyin did not just swagger into the capital like this. He changed his appearance, changed into a scabies shape, wore a ragged veil, Barefoot and bald, he held his cassock in his hands, glowing brightly.

Avalokitesvara walked into the Water and Land Dharma Assembly as if he was in a deserted place. Someone noticed him and asked:"The leper monk, how much does your cassock cost?"

The Bodhisattva said:"The cassock is worth five thousand taels, and the tin staff is worth two thousand taels." The foolish monk laughed and said,"These two leprous monks are madmen and fools!" These two crude items were sold for seven thousand taels of silver? But unless you can live forever, you have to become a Buddha and become an ancestor, which is not worth so much! Take it, but you can’t sell it!"

Guanyin naturally would not quarrel with mortals and walked directly to where Jin Chanzi was. How could he sell the treasure in his hand? Such a valuable treasure could not be purchased with mortal wealth.

Guanyin walked along and saw the land and water method. Jin Chanzi, who stood out in the meeting, reincarnated and coughed lightly:"I'm selling my cassock."

There were mostly enlightened monks in the Waterway Dharma Assembly. When I saw a tattered monk selling his cassock here, I couldn't help but be curious and asked,"How much does this cassock cost?"

Guanyin laughed and said:"Seven thousand taels!""

Everyone was shocked. You must be stupid to spend seven thousand taels on such rags.

Tang Taizong also noticed this and thought this monk was interesting. He was about to buy it when he suddenly heard Tang Xuanzang say:"It's just a good cassock. When you enter perdition, you will not fall into hell, you will not encounter evil difficulties, and you will not encounter the den of tigers and wolves. Guanyin

, who had transformed into a tattered monk, was shocked when he heard this:"Have you recovered your memory?""

Ten times before Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty, he was the second disciple of the Buddha. Naturally, he could understand the preciousness of the magic weapon in his hand. 167 But after ten reincarnations, the Buddha's magical power should have wiped out Tang Monk's memory. How could this be so?

When Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty looked at him. Guanyin wondered whether his plan had been exposed. He immediately showed his true form as a Bodhisattva, with colorful auspicious mist and auspicious light protecting his body. In the Nine-Sky Huahanli, he wore a gold-leaf button on his head and was covered with green flowers. , shining golden light, with vigorous hanging pearls and tassels. Wearing a light-colored collar, light makeup, a golden dragon, and a plain blue robe.

Now that Buddhism has become extremely prosperous in the Tang Dynasty, Guanyin plans to come directly to the hard work. :"What your master teaches is Hinayana teachings, which cannot save the dead from ascending to heaven. I have the Three Treasures of Mahayana Buddhism, which can save me from death and suffering, and lead a long life without deterioration. When Taizong saw that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was willing to come directly to teach him about his true colors, he was delighted and asked,"Where is the Mahayana Dharma of Bodhisattva?"

The Bodhisattva said:"In the Great Thunder Sound Temple in the Great Western Tianzhu Kingdom, I am the Buddha Tathagata. I can resolve hundreds of grievances and eliminate all kinds of disasters. I just need a sincere person to get it.""

Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was overjoyed when he heard this and looked at Tang Seng beside him.

But Tang Seng looked as usual, and his mind was on the Hinayana teachings. Daleiyin Temple was already rotten.

With the guidance of Emperor Tian, ​​Tang Seng looked at him in these ten lives. I have never forgotten my identity!
