Chapter 214 Tang Monk, Tathagata, and Golden Chanzi
Bai Ze asked Ying Lao in his heart: "Teacher, I have been with Tang Seng for a long time, and I don't think there is anything wrong with him. Although he is usually a bit pedantic, he is generally a good person.
There is no demonic aura about him, and no one dares to take away the reincarnation of the golden cicada from him. ”
Yinglao said: "I can't see through it. I can't see through it. I can't see through this Tang Monk's heels either.
But I can speculate.
Thinking about it now, it is by no means an ordinary thing that he can become the core of Xitian's Buddhist scriptures.
Just look at the backgrounds of the people around him who protect him and you will understand.
Do you really think he is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi? ”
Bai Ze said: "Teacher, you are saying that Tang Monk is not the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi?"
Ying Lao laughed: "If I hadn't seen this baby today, I would still have been kept in the dark. Is he the reincarnation of the golden cicada?
Who is Jin Chanzi? ”
Bai Ze said: "Aren't you the second disciple of Tathagata Buddha? A distinguished monk who practiced for ten generations."
Ying Laodao: "Golden immortals and saints often live tens of thousands of years. Do you think how powerful ten life cultivation is?
Next, you worship under Guanyin’s sect, and you also know quite a lot about Buddhism.
So who are the ten major disciples of Tathagata? ”
Bai Ze said: "Sariputra, Moggallana, Mahakassapa, Aniruddha...etc.!"
Bai Ze suddenly discovered something unusual. Among the ten disciples of Tathagata, there was no golden cicada at all!
Then this Golden Chanzi is the second disciple of the Tathagata, how did he come to be?
Bai Ze said: "So, teacher, what do you think this is going on?"
Ying Lao said: "Tang Monk is the Tathagata!"
"What?"
Bai Zeke was so shocked that he almost knocked over the porridge when he was drinking porridge with everyone.
The scalper on the side said: "Are you okay, Bai Ze?
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
Bai Ze held a bowl of porridge and stayed away from everyone, preparing to concentrate on talking to Ying Lao in his mind.
He found a deserted place and began to ask: "Teacher, do you think Tang Monk is the Tathagata?"
Ying Lao said: "If this Tang Monk had not given birth to a son, I would never have discovered this secret, but he gave birth to such a son of a Buddha and a Bodhisattva, haha, his identity is self-evident.
Just think about it, can a golden cicada give birth to a little Buddha or Bodhisattva? ”
Bai Ze shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be possible. Even if Jin Chanzi is a reincarnated monk, he can't give birth to little Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, right?"
Ying Lao said: "It turns out that the so-called Jin Chanzi is the second disciple of Tathagata, and its true meaning is the second disciple of Tathagata.
Among Tathagata's disciples, whether they were the top ten disciples or the five monks who initially followed him to enlightenment, none were named Jin Chanzi.
This is how a golden cicada escapes from its shell! ”
Bai Ze said: "Tathagata's two disciples, are they the second Tathagata?
Golden cicada, golden cicada escapes from its shell? ”
Mr. Ying said: "Yes, this Tang Monk is the Tathagata, but Tang Monk himself probably doesn't know it."
Bai Ze said: "Are you saying that Tang Monk himself doesn't know that he is Tathagata?"
Ying Lao said: "Of course he doesn't know. I'm afraid no one in the Three Realms knows about this except Tathagata himself.
Then why did Jiang Liuer suddenly not love his beloved wife and become a monk?
How could he achieve the status of master of sutras in just ten lifetimes of practice, which even the great men in the world find difficult?
After Tang Seng learns the scriptures, he will definitely become a Buddha. Tang Seng is the Tathagata's back-up man. ”
Bai Ze said: "Are you saying that Tang Monk is a clone of Tathagata, and Tathagata deliberately separated this clone from himself and did not preserve any memory?
But if such a separated clone is recovered, it would be fine. If it is not recovered and becomes a saint and a Buddha, wouldn't it completely become a separate individual?
What are the benefits of being with Tathagata? ”
Ying Lao said: "Do you think such a thing will really happen? You have just been to Lingyundu, don't you still understand?
When Tang Seng's ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties are fulfilled and his merits are complete, Tang Seng will step on the bottomless boat of Lingyun Ferry. The mortal body of Jiang Liu'er will be washed away, and the remaining true spirit will be the Tathagata himself!
The true spirit becomes a Buddha, and the mortal body is washed away. ”
"This..." Bai Ze was surprised. He didn't expect Tathagata Buddha's arrangement to be so clever. He was really the second Tathagata, and the golden cicada escaped from its shell.
This ingenious arrangement will never be apparent to you, no matter whether you are a natural master or an acquired master.
Tathagata arranged for himself a clone to become a Buddha!
Then it all makes sense. Why did a person like Tang Seng, who didn't seem like the protagonist, become the core of the Buddhist group?
It turns out that everything was arranged by Tathagata Buddha, but he just plated himself with gold and gave himself a backup plan.
Bai Ze looked at Tang Monk beside the bonfire in the distance, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "This is just a puppet. When the real spirit becomes a Buddha, you will be washed away."
"Forget it, when Jiang Liu'er is washed down, I'll go and fish him up."
When this clone was used up, it rushed into the Tongtian River through Lingyundu, and was finally smashed into pieces by the turbulent currents, turning into nutrients for the great rivers.
It's really unknowing.
It's just a pity that this Tang Seng has lived his whole life under people's arrangements. If he knew the truth, would he collapse?
After one night, everyone was separated again. Naturally, the daughter-in-law could not follow the Buddhist group, nor could she return to her daughter-in-law.
After all, the daughter of the king has become a disciple of Lingshan. What's the matter with another one running away?
Therefore, Bai Ze planned to take her back to Baihu Ridge to visit her mother and arrange for her daughter to be the head of the country in Baihu Ridge.
When parting, the daughter of the king held the little Tang Seng in her arms and said, "Can you hug him before leaving?"
"This..."
Tang Seng was a little at a loss.
Bajie was cheering on the side: "Yes, Master, just give him a hug. No matter what, you are the father of the child."
Monk Sha said: "Yes, Master, you may not know whether we can meet each other in the future, so you should hug him."
"Okay!"
Tang Seng felt the blood boiling in his body, which was the feeling of blood connection. He took the baby from the hands of his daughter, the king.
The baby looked at him with a smile.
At this moment, Tang Seng also laughed. He touched the baby's soft and tender face with his fingers: "I hope you will grow up well!"
Bai Ze said: "How about the elders give this child a name?"
Everyone looked at Tang Seng. Tang Seng pondered for a moment and said, "My name is Tang Sanzang, so he should be called Tang San by one character less than me."
Bai Ze said: "Are you going to give him the Buddha's Furious Tang Lotus?
Or should we send him to Douluo Continent? ”
"What is that?" Tang Seng and everyone were puzzled.
"It's nothing, nothing." Bai Ze said repeatedly. It was actually the name Tang Seng gave the baby, which directly made Bai Ze a joke.
"Haha Tang San, little Tang San."
Everyone in the Bible study group was happy that the child had a name and rushed to hug him.
The daughter of the king was also very happy. This was the perfect ending in her heart. Her child survived and was healthy. The father also gave the child a name. What a happy thing.
Bai Ze said: "Let's go, it's almost time."
At Bai Ze's reminder, her daughter, the princess, took the child from everyone's hands and stepped onto the flying boat.
The daughter-in-law held the child's little hand: "Quick, say goodbye to daddy!"
The child was speechless and babbling a few times as he bid farewell to Tang Seng.
Tang Seng stretched out a hand stiffly, waved it unnaturally, and managed to squeeze out a sentence from his throat: "Goodbye."
In this way, Bai Ze said goodbye to Tang Seng and others, and took his daughter, the king, to Baihu Ridge.
