Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Tathagata's face gradually turned ugly.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Why do you think that you can set the direction of the catastrophe of Journey to the West?"

Li Jue smiled, "Otherwise, as you said at the beginning, it is up to you to choose ordinary people to go from the east to the west with perseverance, and worship Buddha in Lingshan to seek scriptures."

Tathagata frowned, Li Jue would be so easy to talk to?

Li Jue continued: "Then you have gone through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties along the way. According to the urinating nature of your Buddhism, you will definitely let them take a big step and turn the danger into safety. But I will not allow this kind of thing to happen. When the time comes, I will It will definitely become a link in the ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, do you think they can safely obtain the scriptures in my hands?"

Tathagata's heart sinks like water.

Everyone looked at them silently, knowing that Li Jue was on par with Tathagata Buddha.

The two fought against Maimang, not giving in to each other.

Seeing that the Tathagata Buddha was silent, Li Jue continued: "This catastrophe was proposed by the two sages of your Buddhism, and it is obvious that your Buddhism wants to use this catastrophe to become more powerful."

Everyone nodded, this kind of thing is obvious to all.

This catastrophe happened in the human world, and it is obvious that Buddhism wants to compete for faith in the human world, blooming and scattering leaves.

And if Buddhism wants to compete for faith in the world, it must use human means to promote Buddhism.

From mortals to learn the scriptures from the west, and to seek the scriptures with fearlessness and perseverance, it will surely move the world and make the world admire and believe.

It is essential to go through ninety-nine and eighty-one disasters, but these disasters are controllable in the eyes of Buddhism.

But if Li Jue also participated in it, then these catastrophes would definitely be hell-level and completely uncontrollable.

Because Li Jue's strength is really too strong, and he can exert a very strong strength in the human world. With the Xuanyuan Sword, he can protect his primordial spirit and display it perfectly in the human world.

Secondly, his physical body is also extremely strong, and he is not bound by heaven in the world. Even the ordinary Daluo Jinxian is not his opponent.

Therefore, under the suppression of heaven, if Li Jue is in a catastrophe, it must be a nightmare for Buddhist scriptures.

Even if Tathagata Buddha arranged for some people to protect the Buddhist scriptures, it is impossible to defend day and night, and they will be safe in Li Jue's hands.

After all, it is impossible for Buddhism to arrange several quasi-sages for a person who learns scriptures, so it is not to learn scriptures from the west, but to accompany the prince to study.

It is completely unconvincing to the world, and it is extremely detrimental to the spread of Buddhism.

Therefore, Buddhism has to choose mortals with great prestige in the world to go to the west to learn scriptures, and along the way, surrender some disciples and work for him.

In this way, ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties are just a formality.

The condition for this is that Li Jue must not intervene, but with Li Jue's character and the grievances between Buddhism and Buddhism, it is impossible for him not to intervene.

Li Jue said: "I asked you to arrange people to go to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures and promote Buddhism, but it is obvious that you are not very confident in the Buddhist scriptures."

Tathagata said: "The affairs of the world should be decided by the people in the world. Even if we are learning scriptures from the west, we should not interfere with them."

Li Jue smiled, "I am the King of Human Beings, holding the Xuanyuan Sword in my hand. Apart from Empress Nuwa, I am the one who has the most say in human affairs. Can I not intervene in matters that change the world's structure?"

Tathagata is silent, Li Jue's identity is really a problem, which is a headache.

Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, the Nanji Xianweng signaled Jiang Ziya to comfort him. After some persuasion, everyone finally became calm.

And the Tathagata Buddha no longer insisted that the catastrophe of Journey to the West must be arranged by his Buddhist sect.

Li Jue said: "The catastrophe started when your Buddhist sect wanted to become stronger and spread faith in Buddhism among the world."

"And as a human king and a heavenly emperor, I have enough right to speak, and I must act according to my thinking."

Tathagata said: "At the end of the day, you don't want my Dharma to spread all over the world and bring benefits to the world."

He snorted coldly, "You build temples in the world, enjoy incense, and receive merits that you shouldn't have to bear. Naturally, you don't want my Dharma to spread all over the world and compete with you for glory."

Everyone also nodded. They also knew about Li Jue's life in the world, and they also knew that Emperor Qin II built four huge temples for Li Jue to enjoy the incense.

He was already extremely jealous of Li Jue in his heart, and his envy was endless.

Now the Tathagata Buddha directly pointed the finger at him, making him fall into the trap of everyone's jealousy.

But everyone supported Li Jue's statement. Although they were jealous of him now, they felt even more that the Buddhist family should not be allowed to dominate, and Li Jue should not continue to dominate the world.

They wanted even more to get a share of the catastrophe.

In the end, the Jade Emperor made a decision: "This catastrophe was brought up by the Buddhist sect, and the Buddhist sect wanted to spread the Dharma, but there will always be people who are not convinced, and there will always be people who feel that the Buddhist sect is not worthy."

The words are rough and the rationale is not rough.

In fact, even if Li Jue didn't say anything, everyone still refused to accept it. After all, the Tathagata Buddha wanted to spread the Dharma to the world, and he wanted to compete with them for territory.

In fact, there are saints standing behind them. If the two saints in the West want to reach out in the world, they want to snatch the territory of other saints. If they don't agree, these people will naturally not agree.

If Li Jue didn't mention it, these people would still interfere, but they wouldn't be so blatant.

The Jade Emperor continued: "So for the sake of fairness, to convince people with virtue, and to prevent this catastrophe from causing too many murders, we must be gentle and survive this catastrophe safely. "

Tathagata frowned. Before coming here, he had already approached the Jade Emperor, and the two sides had exchanged opinions and reached a consensus!

The Jade Emperor should be on his side.

But now the Jade Emperor obviously wants to make peace, which is extremely detrimental to Buddhism.

but.

He didn't interrupt the Jade Emperor's speech. The Jade Emperor continued: "If you want to survive this catastrophe safely, avoid involving more innocent people, and satisfy all parties, there are two ways."

Jiang Ziya was very cooperative and said, "May I ask Your Majesty, what are the two methods?"

The Jade Emperor said: "One of them was proposed by the Tathagata Buddha before. They selected people to start from the Eastern Land and go to the Lingshan Mountain in the West to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures. Get the right result."

Tathagata nodded, this is the way to maximize the interests of Buddhism.

Jiang Ziya said: "What is the second way?"

The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "The second method was proposed by the Dragon and Tiger Emperor. The Dragon and Tiger Emperor selected people to go to the Lingshan Mountain in the West Heaven to preach and discuss Buddhism, so as to prove that the current eastern land does not need the universal enlightenment of Buddhism."

Tathagata frowned, this method is extremely unfavorable to Buddhism.

Because if Li Jue really chose, it would be a great blow to the majesty of Buddhism if mortals could go to Lingshan in the West to preach and discuss Buddhism.

Moreover, if the Dharma wants to flourish in the East, it will have to be postponed for a while.

The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "The first method will definitely not satisfy the Dragon and Tiger Emperor, so the nine-nine-eighty-one difficulty will definitely become extremely difficult, and it will be extremely unfavorable for the spread of Buddhism."

Everyone nodded. If Li Jue really wanted to intervene, judging from his performance in the human world, even if the Tathagata Buddha really arranged for quasi-sages to protect the Buddhist learners, it would be impossible to guard against.

What's more, if this catastrophe is really arranged for the quasi-sage to participate in the protection of the Buddhist scriptures, it will definitely become a laughing stock.

However, if Li Jue were to arrange for people to travel westward, many uncertainties would be added.

If Li Jue really succeeds, the journey of Buddhism to the East will definitely be postponed.

Tathagata hesitated for a long time, and everyone fell silent.

With a calm expression, Li Jue expressed his approval of the Jade Emperor's two methods, and he repeatedly stated that no matter what method everyone chooses, he may not necessarily participate in it.

"People don't destroy heaven and earth for themselves, just as the Buddha said, if I want to guard the one-acre land in the east, I will definitely stop this catastrophe of Buddhism going east."

He is outspoken now.

Everyone's eyes flickered. In fact, they never wanted to allow Buddhism to travel eastward. They just wanted to get a share of this catastrophe.

If it is still possible to prevent Buddhism from traveling eastward, why not do it! ?

Tathagata noticed the expressions and attitudes of everyone, and knew that if Li Jue intervened, it would be difficult and dangerous to learn from the Western Paradise.

He calculated secretly, and the odds of winning were zero.

at this time.

A voice sounded in Tathagata's mind, "Choose the second method."

Then the voice disappeared, but Tathagata calmed down.

He opened his mouth and said: "In this case, this seat is in the Lingshan of the West Heaven, waiting for the mortals hand-picked by the Dragon and Tiger Emperor to come and talk about Buddhism!"

The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Since even the Buddha and the Elder have agreed to choose the second method, then Emperor Dragon and Tiger, I will give you 10 years to choose a suitable mortal, starting from the Eastern Land, and going to the Lingshan Mountain in the Western Heaven after hundreds of thousands of miles. In this way, let the world know that the Eastern Land does not need Buddhism for the time being."

Everyone shook their heads secretly. This must be an extremely difficult road to the west.

Because destroying a person is thousands of times easier than protecting a person.

It is easy to kill the mortals going to the west, but it is really difficult to protect the mortals going to the west.

In fact, they couldn't figure out where Li Jue got his confidence and why he proposed such a ridiculous method.

It seems that the Jade Emperor is still biased towards Buddhism.

They don't think that Li Jue's participation in the guardianship can truly protect mortals, because it is impossible to guard against.

Li Jue was doomed to fail.

But it doesn't matter, they can take this opportunity and get a share of it.

In the process of Li Jue's fight against Buddhism, as long as they can take the opportunity to profit.

At that time, Buddhism will continue to travel eastward, and they will still be able to benefit from it.

The best of both worlds, why not do it.

but.

Some people also think that if they help Li Jue secretly, they will have more time and opportunities to get a share of it.

The catastrophe is determined by this.

However.

It's not over yet.

Tathagata got up and was about to leave. When he came, he said with a smile: "My Buddhist school is preparing to hold the Yulan Buddhist meeting. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, appreciates and agrees with my Buddhist teachings very much."

"Now, I sincerely invite Li Tiandi to go, I don't know, can I give you face!?"
