Chapter 356 The Game Thousand Years Ago
Shen Lian fell into a brief trance, how could he not know who Huang Mei was.
The Yellow-browed Old Buddha is one of the beneficiaries of the calamity of heaven and earth, but by refining the entire Tathagata Sutra, he can replace the golden sun in the sky out of thin air.
Shen Lian did not expect that the Yellow-browed Buddha had been so active thousands of years ago.
He didn’t know whether the yellow-browed old Buddha had mastered the three Buddhist treasures of Maitreya Buddha. His strength was far beyond his own ability.
"Isn't Jin Chanzi's disappearance related to the old Buddha with yellow eyebrows?"
Since Shen Lian stepped into Da Ci'en Temple, he has not noticed Jin Chanzi's aura. I wonder if the latter is in the deeper layers of the temple. memories.
He suppressed distracting thoughts and did not dare to show any flaws in his appearance.
However, even though Shen Lian tried his best to hide it, Huang Mei saw through it at a glance, and the frequency of hitting the turtle shell with his hand also increased slightly.
“Little nephew.”
"I thought you had understood the great principles, but I didn't expect that there were many karma obstacles in your heart."
"With your current way of doing things, I'm afraid you won't be able to see Jin Chanzi. Come with me. Next, Let me teach you how to practice Buddhism.”
Huang Mei didn’t care, but showed his appreciation for Shen Lian.
Shen Lian felt creepy.
Huang Mei was more terrifying than any enemy he had ever encountered before. Even if the recollection was false, it still made him feel deeply afraid.
But no matter what, you really can’t back down from this trip.
Shen Lian will inevitably have a battle with Xiao Leiyin Temple in four hundred years. If he can take the opportunity to understand Huang Mei, it will be a worthwhile trip.
Dong.
Dong-dong.
The sound of wooden fish sounds, and the sun shines through the clouds on Daci'en Temple.
In the third reincarnation, the entire memory was filled with heavy rain, but the sunshine remained the same in the Daci'en Temple, attracting countless pilgrims.
All the pilgrims have a solemn appearance, but their compassionate features are extremely distorted.
Huang Mei seemed to intend to let Shen Lian see the faces of the pilgrims clearly. As he walked among the bustling palaces open to the outside world, the comments caught his ears.
"Wangjiazhuang outside the city heard that all the people died in one night?"
"Wangjiazhuang does not respect the Buddha on weekdays, but instead regards the ancestors in the ancestral hall very seriously. It is no wonder that they are regarded as practicing Buddhism. supplies.”
"Why bother? Wouldn't it be better to become a Buddha together with us?"
"Great kindness."
......
Shen Lian suddenly felt nauseous and inexplicably felt Kind of nausea.
Nowhere in the deep and boundless underworld has he been so disgusted, which shows how crazy the Great Ci'en Temple, known as the Buddhist Kingdom on Earth, is.
Huang Mei walked towards the main hall with a smile, and all the pilgrims knelt on the ground wherever he passed.
They were chanting Buddha in their mouths, but their expressions were eight parts fearful and two parts greedy and demanding, which was beyond words.
Dong-dong-dong.
The beating of the wooden fish intensified. Huang Mei did not use any Buddhist light, but only relied on the crisp sound to arouse the human desires of all living beings.
There is an old man who has grown old but is jealous of his child’s body.
He wants to live forever.
There is a woman with extraordinary beauty, but she is unwilling to be just a mere courtesan.
She wants to be king and emperor.
There were officials who had many wives and concubines, but they were interested in women who could not get what they asked for.
He wants human relations to collapse.
There is a rich man who has a lot of money, but he is jealous of the Buddha who is dressed in gold and jade.
He wanted to become a Buddha immediately.
…………
Shen Lian couldn’t help but feel his scalp numb. Even the future generations where demons were everywhere were far from as shocking as the Great Ci’en Temple at this moment.
When the Main Hall came into view, tens of thousands of pilgrims were kneeling and worshiping.
Although the pilgrims are all transformed by the little white dragon, their minds have long been lost, they have completely forgotten their identities, and they are playing their own roles.
With yellow eyebrows and sharp teeth, he enjoyed the admiration of all the people. "Little nephew, do you think they are worshiping me?"
Shen Lian replied truthfully: "No. , They are worshiping the splendid temple."
Huang Mei sneered: "If what is in front of you is a ruined temple, even the Buddha's magical power will not be able to obtain such incense."
The main hall is extremely luxurious, and you can see the inside of the hall at a glance through the open door.
The 100-meter Buddha statue of Tathagata is poured and cast from gold. The magic weapon in Tathagata's hand is inlaid with rare agate and amber.
The surface of the four pillars is embellished with silver, and the decoration is wonderful; the windows made of colorful glass shimmer, like a dream; corals are dotted between the walls, becoming the point between the eyebrows in the picture of the Hundred Buddhas Pilgrimage Aura.
The gatekeepers bowed their heads and backed away, but an old monk approached them diligently.
The old monk is dressed the same as Huang Mei, and his eyebrows are obviously imitating the latter. His status should be the contemporary abbot of Daci'en Temple.
“I am Buddha.”
"There are a total of thirteen disciples receiving the ceremony this time, six of whom are from Daci'en Temple, and the remaining six are the descendants of high-ranking officials."
The old monk stared at Shen Lian for a few breaths, unable to see through the latter at all. .
There is no Buddha nature in appearance, but he can get the attention of Huang Mei. He has never seen Huang Mei personally lead the uninitiated disciples around the temple.
Huang Mei didn't even look at the old monk, and wrote lightly: "Let them all wait in front of the main hall, and I will transform them one by one."
"Little nephew, come with me Let’s place our senior brother’s Buddha statue in the Main Hall together.”
Shen Lian nodded, vaguely aware of the origin of the Buddha statue.
Seeing this, the old monk couldn't help but interjected: "My Buddha, the dust needs to be brushed away from the Buddha statue before entering the temple. It is better for the disciples to take care of it."
There was naked jealousy in his eyes.
He is clearly a mortal, with no trace of Buddhist practice at all, and does not seem to possess Buddha nature, so why can the living Buddha pay so much attention to him.
I have been practicing Buddhism for more than three hundred years and recite Buddhist scriptures diligently every day.
I abide by the strict rules of Buddhism and even build the Great Ci'en Temple, which is a rare thing in a lifetime. Don't I have enough Buddha nature? !
Shouldn’t it be me who enters the Mahavira together? ! !
Huang Mei didn’t respond and walked into the main hall first.
No matter how loud the ants on the roadside were, they could not distract him in the slightest.
Shen Lian felt Huang Mei's attention, but it was definitely not a good thing. From the current contact, Huang Mei was a complete lunatic.
After stepping over the steps, between the light and shadow inside and outside the hall, I heard Huang Mei murmuring to himself.
"The World Honored One has said that the suffering of all sentient beings is mostly caused by failure to observe the precepts and indulge in indulgence, so I established clear rules and precepts at Daci'en Temple."
"What do you think? All living beings. Is it suffering, joy, sorrow or joy now?
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes, what rules and regulations are more like playing with people's hearts, using greed, anger, obsession and hatred to amplify everyone's desires.
< br>“I can’t tell. ”
"Hahahaha, whether you admit it or not, you and I are the same person."
Huang Mei walked into the main hall. Apart from the Tathagata Buddha statue in the center, there were three to four hundred golden cicadas with different expressions on both sides. Buddha statue.
“Jin Chanzi, look at all the disciples you found before you died.”
“Either you are stubborn and become food for others on the way; Become a monk in Ci'en Temple."
Huang Mei looked at Shen Lian and said happily: "The last person is the least like you, but he is just like me. He is really ridiculous."
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and scanned the two hundred and eighty-three golden cicada Buddha statues with different expressions.
If nothing unexpected happens, each Buddha statue contains a part of Jin Chanzi's body, which should be transported by 283 people.
Shen Lian didn’t know whether Jin Chanzi was dead or alive, but he definitely had a bet with Huang Mei.
The two hundred and eighty-three people may not have seen Jin Chanzi, but they were selected by the latter to send all parts of the body to Da Ci'en Temple. "According to the original historical trajectory, it was Tuwazi who transported the last Buddha statue."
"Touwazi couldn't bear the cold and could not bear his third uncle to carry heavy objects. He has a pure heart, but he has no chance of winning against Huangmei."
"That is to say."
"Jin Chanzi said with He made a bet for the chess piece and lost everything? "
"That's not right. "
Shen Lian thought of Huang Mei's actions in the future when he sensed the aura of the lotus platform. What it looks like to win a bet.
It seems that there are still changes in the game at Daci'en Temple.
How does a dead man win?
Shen Lian didn't say anything. He didn't dare to agree with Huang Mei's argument that the two of them had the same argument. His goal was to get Datang back on track.
Haha, how can he be the same as Huang Mei, a demon who kills people, sets fire, and confuses people's hearts.
Shen Lian didn’t know it.
In fact, Huang Mei has seen through his true nature.
Disrespecting immortals and Buddhas, dismissing the existence of heaven and spiritual mountains, and not paying attention to the principles of immortals and Buddhas to restrain the common people.
Everything you do is based on your own likes and dislikes.
All actions have a very clear subjective purpose.
The only difference between the two is their cognition. Huang Mei believes that human nature is inherently evil and cannot be changed by eating fasting and chanting Buddha's name. Immortals and Buddhas need to be above the ordinary.
Shen Lian feels that the three realms should be dominated by the common people, with immortals and Buddhas dependent on the common people.
The first person who saw through Shen Lian was Ma Wanhu.
Ma Wanhu knew very well that Shen Lian sided with the Tang Dynasty purely because the latter thought that he was a human being and only had his own likes and dislikes.
"Junior brother, dare I ask for the Dharma name?"
"Tianwen."
"The names of the Dharma are filled with murderous intent, nephew Tianwen, you are destined to the Daci'en Temple."
Huang Mei's admiration was not concealed, and with a wave of his hand, the last Buddha statue fell in the corner of the Main Hall. remaining vacancies.
The Buddha's light shines everywhere, and the two hundred and eighty-three Buddha statues are lifelike.
But it’s just lifelike.
Huang Mei looked disappointed. He thought that if he found Jin Chanzi's complete body, there would be a hidden plot arranged by the latter before his death, but there was no response.
"Forget it, Jin Chanzi, just watch how Xiao Xitian stands in the clouds."
Shen Lian raised his eyebrows. It seems that it was Xiao Xitian that Huang Mei wanted to create thousands of years ago, not the demon pretending to be Buddha. Xiaoleiyin Temple.
"Senior nephew Tianwen, you can't be a disciple of Jin Chanzi."
"It's better to stay in Da Ci'en Temple and witness the birth of Xiao Xitian. When the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, you will also have it in Lingshan. One side of heaven and earth. "
The meaning of Huang Mei's words is very clear. Most of them have taken advantage of the calamity of heaven and earth to completely rebel against the Buddhas in the Western Lingshan Mountain.
There may be something fishy about the Buddha who came to Daci'en Temple.
"What Uncle Master said is absolutely true. Tianwen has long wanted to see the scenery of Lingshan."
"Okay!!"
Huang Mei said with satisfaction: "You Having a Buddha nature that is far beyond the world is far more pleasing to Master than a body of blood that is coveted by demons."
He walked step by step towards the Tathagata Buddha statue, and under the support of the Buddha's light in the sky, the shadow behind him appeared. Keep getting longer and longer.
"The suffering of all living beings? They are all caused by themselves."
"If you don't kill, hatred will never end. If you don't steal, there will be no difference between the strong and the weak like me. If you don't engage in sexual misconduct, all sentient beings are sins. If you don't lie, dreams will come to nothing. Empty..."
The yellow eyebrows are condescending, as if they are looking down on the entire Three Realms.
"The calamity of heaven and earth swept through the three realms, and I, Huang Mei, replaced the way of heaven and gave all living beings a creation called Xiaoxitian!!!"
Shen Lian understood that the calamity of heaven and earth swept through the three realms. Classes are distinct.
After the calamity of heaven and earth, all the classes of immortals and gods will be disrupted.
If Huang Mei seizes the opportunity, he will never be trapped in the cave of Xiaoleiyin Temple.
Shen Lian's heart was beating wildly. Nothing could compare with it, witnessing with his own eyes the general trend of the calamity game that revolved around the world a thousand years ago.
Bang.
The Main Hall is reopened.
The old monk and the eleven people had been waiting for a long time. Then they noticed Shen Lian standing under the yellow eyebrows, and their pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
They can see that Shen Lian has been recognized by Huang Mei.
Shen Lian also found two acquaintances.
Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, obviously has deep hidden methods. He has a high probability of knowing the truth in the depths of Huangquan in advance and successfully enters the Great Ci'en Temple.
However, in a short period of time, Ao Guang has gradually forgotten the memory of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
His status in the capital was that of the old prime minister of the current dynasty, and his behavior was that of a scholar. Only occasionally would he reveal the habits of a real dragon.
Another acquaintance is the old monk Dahui from Yingke Temple.
Ao Guang did not recognize Shen Lian, who had a very different aura, and even more so Dahui. After all, the latter had never been in contact with Shen Lian in his current reincarnation.
Huang Mei said with neither joy nor sadness: "You are willing to become Xiao Xitian's disciples."
"Yes!"
Shen Lian was calm and calm while the others were blushing.
“There are currently twelve protective Jialan in Daci’en Temple, and [Guangmu]’s wisdom root happens to be complete. For the time being, you will worship under Guangmu’s sect and strive to refine your wisdom root.”
The present that Huang Mei is talking about refers to the third reincarnation.
The windows of the Main Hall are open.
The yellow-browed Buddha light enveloped everyone, and the perspectives in their eyes changed dramatically.
Twelve rays of Buddha's light rose into the sky at Daci'en Temple. Along with the chanting of sutras, they heard bursts of wailing coming from the source of the Buddha's light.
Shen Lian took a breath of cold air.
He opened his eyes and saw a strange and inexplicable sight.
The twelve guardian Jialan were all trapped in the temple, their bodies covered with mutilated flesh and blood, and the disciples who served them were like ants eating their flesh and blood.
Some monks worked together to dig out the ribs of Protector Jialan, and they quarreled and killed each other in ecstasy.
The victors refined their ribs and transformed little by little into the appearance of Protector Jialan. They sang praises to Xiao Xitian amidst the wailing of the Buddha.
Protect Jialan can only be regarded as a heavenly soldier of the Western Spirit Mountain, but it is not ordinary.
They recovered from their injuries very quickly, satisfying themselves with gluttonous feasts. When the monks were similar enough, they went to the next reincarnation.
"Xiao Xitian, taking his place."
Shen Lian felt that it was impossible for Yellow Eyebrow to trap Buddhas all over the sky in Daci'en Temple. Buddhas above the Arhat level could only get some stumps and meat. .
But it's also extremely scary.
The residual limbs and minced meat contain the teachings of Middle Vehicle Buddhism, and are themselves part of Mahayana Buddhism. It is a bit unbelievable to take them away from the Western Spirit Mountain.
Huang Mei’s plot is far older than ordinary immortals and Buddhas.
"Move to the palace where Guangmu is located and listen to the chanting of Protector Jialan. You will understand the Buddhist inheritance of Xiao Xitian."
Huang Mei did not give Shen Lian preferential treatment. The ambiguity is fascinating.
Shen Lian never cared about Huang Mei using himself to stimulate other disciples. The real trouble was for the latter to teach them personally.
He happens to lack the skills at the Earth Immortal level, so I wonder if there are any additional gains.
