One Piece: Flowing Blade-Like Flame

"However, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has appointed me as a messenger of the Tang Dynasty to learn the scriptures. No matter who it is, just spread the scriptures to the East, isn't it enough?" Zhang Yang asked.

"This is Jin Chanzi's destiny. He dozed off when Tathagata was talking about the Dharma, but the result was that Tathagata was careful to demote him to the mortal world, saying that he was going through hardships to understand the truth of Buddhism, but in fact he was healed.

This is his last life to be punished, and the journey of learning is also very difficult, and it is impossible to say that he will die halfway. "Sun Wukong was stunned when he finished speaking, because he was right. Didn't Jin Chanzi be beaten to death by himself just now?"

Zhang Yang also looked at Tang Seng's body next to him and found that Sun Wukong made sense. Now that Jin Chanzi's tenth life has been punished, where will he go next? Return to the Western Heaven and practice chanting under the hands of the Buddha, or continue his eleventh reincarnation?

Just when Zhang Yang was in a daze, suddenly a golden light spread all over his body from Tang Seng's corpse, gradually condensing into the shape of a cicada, and finally waving his wings to make a "buzzing" sound and flew up.

"I said you monkey is small-minded. For example, when you were young, didn't I just put a fart on your head? As for a punch to kill me? It's a sin and sin." Jin Chanzi flew to Zhang Yang's shoulder And said to him: "Bald, let's meet again."

Zhang Yang couldn't hear people calling him bald, so he stretched out his fingers to fly the golden cicada bullets, and taught him: "Look at you, dozing off in front of the Buddha, and farting on Monkey King's head. You are like this from beginning to end. With a cynical attitude, the second generation of Buddha is amazing, isn't it?"

After turning a few times in the air, Jin Chanzi flew back again, and suddenly said very solemnly, "Buddha is careful, and Taoism cannot be tolerated in his eyes. First he forced the Bodhi ancestor to hide in the Three Realms, and then the monkey made a big trouble in the heavenly palace five hundred years ago. When I deliberately watched the Jade Emperor make a fool of myself, my body and nature are free, and every day I listen to him chanting scriptures to death. Although my body is in Da Leiyin Temple, my heart is in various places in the Three Realms, so I use this method to let him push my lower realms."

However, what he didn't expect was that the Buddha's mind was so small that he became a man of Scripture in every life, and as a result, he died tragically in the middle every time. In this tenth lifetime, Jin Chanzi reincarnated as a Tang Seng. This time he had a prophet, and he always felt that he could not go on as a monk in peace.

So he left long hair, pretended to be crazy in the temple all day, and uttered wild words, which made the whole temple's brothers hate him.

The most considerate was the old abbot in the temple. He saw that Tang Seng was born with extraordinary wisdom and roots. He must have done this for his reasons, so he asked him to leave the temple and travel around the world before he passed away.

Tang Seng was naturally grateful, but in order to repay the old abbot for raising himself from the river, he decided to leave after the abbot passed away. As a result, he waited until Guanyin Bodhisattva came to Datang to look for people to learn from the scriptures.

Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, looked for eminent monks who could learn from the temples, but in order to drive away the Tang monks, the whole Jinshan Temple recommended to Li Shimin that the Tang monks were the most suitable candidates.

Although Li Shimin had some doubts, after seeing that it was Jin Chanzi, Guanyin Bodhisattva certainly agreed. It was him. Li Shimin didn’t dare to question anything. He hurriedly became brothers with Tang Seng, so as to get the light of Buddhism, and finally gave him a white horse and Follower, let him hurry up on the road.

Fate is like this, no one can avoid it, everything is destined. Tang Seng knew that he would have no good end in this life, and he would be killed in various ways along the way, so it was only natural to be beaten to death when he came to Monkey King. This also did what he wanted. From then on, the reincarnation was over, and he could be free in the Three Realms without being restrained.

After listening to him speaking of these things, Zhang Yang suddenly regretted it. Isn't he going to suffer for Tang Seng along the way?

But at this time, Monkey King sneered and said, "Freedom? Unless you are the Tathagata, where can freedom come from? Do you really think the Tathagata will let you go like this?"

Jin Chanzi retorted: "Everyone has a different definition of freedom. Some people think that restriction is freedom, some people think that being able to walk around is freedom, and some people think that being able to eat all kinds of food without taboos is freedom.

Monkey, five hundred years ago, the freedom you thought was only the freedom of the body. Dominate the Huaguo Mountain, and take the monkey grandchildren to enjoy the fragrance of fruits and mountains, but you are bewitched by other monsters, trying to be in harmony with the sky. Fate, this is your bondage.

In five hundred years, the freedom you think has changed. When you secretly returned to Huaguo Mountain, when you saw the monkeys whose names you removed from the book of life and death turned resentful in your eyes.

After seeing them have a new monkey queen again, and seeing those monsters who once called you brothers and sisters do not wait to see you, you only understand how lonely you are. Monkey, do you want to know why all this is happening? "

Monkey King was full of anger when Jin Chanzi said, because everything he said was right. It doesn't matter how others treat themselves, but what Sun Wukong doesn't understand is why the monkey grandson of Huaguoshan should resent himself? Isn’t it good to be immortal? He didn't understand, so he nodded: "Yes."

"Go to Xitian to learn the scriptures. The answer may be on the road or in the scriptures." Jin Chanzi said.

"Then what is your freedom?" Monkey King asked the question he most wanted to know.

"For me, everything in the world has been penetrated. There is no need to find any truth. Living is the greatest **** to me, so my freedom is..." Jin Chanzi stopped here, golden. His body began to glow red, and he burned himself into ashes and disappeared without a trace.

Both Zhang Yang and Monkey King were dumbfounded. They watched Jin Chanzi burn themselves to ashes alive, but they couldn't understand that this was the freedom in his mouth.

After a long time, Monkey King finally got out of the Five Elements Mountain. He said to Zhang Yang: "He is right, I am confused, so I have to find the answer. Maybe I can find it on the road, maybe it is hidden in the scriptures."

Zhang Yang was also moved to tears. The contrast Jin Chanzi gave him reminded him of a line from Master Xing: "Others laugh at me too crazy, I laugh at others and can't see through."

It turns out that this is the real cultivator, and this is Jin Chanzi. He spent the pain and suffering of the tenth cycle of reincarnation in exchange for his freedom. Before leaving, he taught Wukong to find the answer on his own.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yang felt more and more ashamed of himself, that he didn't seem worthy to be the master of Monkey King. He couldn't teach him anything. How ashamed to listen to him calling his master all the way along the way.

"Go, Bald."

Hearing Sun Wukong's greeting, Zhang Yang finally dispelled his worries. It seemed that this guy didn't treat him as a master at all. ..
