Chapter 1234 Red Cloud Makes Things Difficult for Tathagata
Tathagata saw that Ananda Kasyapa was still standing there, and his face immediately darkened, and he shouted: "You still don't bow down when you see Taoist Master!"
Ananda Kasyapa didn't know what was going on with Tathagata, but when he saw Tathagata's face, his heart sank, and he even knelt down. After all, even Tathagata Buddha, who was the supreme in their minds, knelt down. They had no reason not to bye.
At this time, Tathagata felt depressed in his heart. It was because even the heavens and the earth had not calculated that Hongyun would be at Wuzhuang Temple. If Tathagata had calculated that Hongyun would be here, he would definitely come at another time. After all, there are many Hongyuns here, and they can't. Say more.
Zhen Yuanzi may still be able to fool him, but as for Hongyun, don't say you fooled him, it's not bad if you don't get plotted by him. When Saint Zhunti saw it, Empress Tu opened up the underworld, knowing that there were benefits to be gained. He took Ksitigarbha to the underworld.
I originally wanted Ksitigarbha to be a Bodhisattva in the underworld, and then become a Buddha and become the Buddha in the underworld. In this way, he can obtain the merits of heaven and control part of the rights in the underworld in the hands of Buddhism.
But I didn't expect that Hongyun would come to the bottom of the pot, causing Ksitigarbha to break away from Buddhism directly, establish Buddhism in the underworld, and become the Buddha and Emperor of the underworld under the pardon of Hongyun, completely severing ties with Western Buddhism.
This move is not cruel! Moreover, Hongyun has other records. Without exception, anyone who wants to plot against Hongyun will be plotted against by Hongyun in the end. Even if Hongyun sells him, he is still helping Hongyun count the money!
Hongyun waved his hand and made Tathagata and Ananda Kassapa stand up. Of course, if they wanted to sit down, there would be no seats. After all, Tathagata was just a junior figure in front of him. How could he sit next to him? Have a seat in front of you.
"Tell me! What are you doing here at Wuzhuang Temple? The Guanyin came here before, but was sent away by Pindao. You have to think about it before proceeding." Zhen Yuanzi looked at Tathagata and said calmly.
Tathagata was speechless for a while. What did this mean? Was it a warning to him? But thinking about the conditions he asked Guanyin to put forward, they were indeed seeking death.
"Master Guanyin came here earlier and I offended you, please forgive me. This world of immortals is under the jurisdiction of the immortals, so Buddhism naturally does not dare to speak nonsense." Tathagata first said something wrong to Zhen Yuanzi, for fear that Hongyun will give him a problem later.
"The location where the Great Immortal is located is a place that must be passed by the Heavenly Road, and as Buddhism will flourish in a thousand years, we need to pass through the Great Immortal's Wuzhuang Temple, so I would like to ask the Great Immortal to help me then." Tathagata looked at Hongyun while speaking. , after all, the great prosperity of Buddhism needs Hongyun’s nod.
But seeing that Hongyun had no objections, Tathagata was overjoyed, knowing that this could happen. The great prosperity of Buddhism was decided by the Taoist ancestors. Of course, now we have to take a look at Hongyun's opinion. Since Hongyun had no objections, then Buddhism would definitely flourish.
"Buddhists say that people outside the country look down on all material things, but when doing things, they also pay attention to personnel matters. So I wonder what personnel services you, the Buddha, are going to give to poor Taoists?" Zhen Yuanzi thought of a strange rule in Buddhism. , said with a smile.
Buddhist disciples all say that they are outsiders and can see through everything, but doing things with others requires personnel. In other words, if you want to do things, you must give gifts or have interviews. This strange rule was set by the Tathagata.
When the Tathagata set up this personnel matter, he just wanted the Buddhas to know that everything comes from hard times and needs to be cherished. However, it was used by some Buddhists to gain benefits. Later, after the Tathagata Buddha learned about this matter, I thought this was also true, so I didn't cancel it.
But I didn't expect that Zhen Yuanzi would use it on me now. I wonder what kind of personnel Zhen Yuanzi, a great master and the strongest man in the three realms, could accept. According to what Guanyin said, it would definitely not work. If he said it, I'm afraid he will also be slapped by Zhen Yuanzi and sent to Daleiyin Temple.
"The Great Immortal is a powerful person in the three realms. Although the young monk wants to offer some personnel, but he is afraid that it will not fall into the eyes of the Great Immortal. Why should he ask the Great Immortal to tell him what Buddhism needs to do?" The Tathagata knew that he could not provide any personnel, so he changed a condition.
That is to ask Zhen Yuanzi to ask Buddha to do something for him, which is regarded as owing a favor. As long as Zhen Yuanzi gives the order, everything will be easy.
"Buddhism is just a bag of wine and rice, what can it do?" Hongyun said with a smile, not shying away from Tathagata, the Buddha, being here. Even if he was being introduced here, Hongyun could speak out, let alone a Tathagata.
"Haha. This." Tathagata wanted to say something but in the end he didn't say it. Looking at Hongyun's embarrassed smile, he also knew that Hongyun was deliberately nitpicking, perhaps deliberately attacking their Buddhism.
Regarding these, how could the Tathagata not know that some of the actions of Buddhism in recent years have become somewhat influential, and the Buddhists who were originally not materialistic are now relying on giving gifts and are overbearing and domineering to the outside world. They no longer have the original intention of saving the world and saving people. state of mind.
Hong Yundu pointed out clearly that Tathagata also knew that this trend of Buddhism would probably not survive if it was not rectified, otherwise it would end badly. Let alone the great prosperity, whether Buddhism can be preserved is another question. Besides, Tathagata also counted on the great prosperity of Buddhism to make him Become a great master!
"Okay, you go back! As long as Buddhism doesn't go too far, it can help you put on a show when it comes to your journey to the West in a thousand years." Hongyun looked at Tathagata hesitating here and didn't dare to say much, knowing that What needs to be beaten has already been done.
If the bad habits of Buddhism are not corrected in the future, they can only be eradicated from the ancient world. After all, this kind of Buddhism is no longer qualified to continue to exist in the ancient world.
Even after Tathagata left Wuzhuang Temple with Ananda Kasyapa and returned to Daleiyin Temple, speaking in front of Hongyun was too stressful. Even if he had planned everything before, he could not say it in front of Hongyun.
"Brother, what happened to Master Tongtian? Now his disciples are all Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian. With the character of Master Tongtian, Luo Jinxian will not appear unless he breaks through to Hunyuan Wuji." Zhen Yuanzi thought about it. That innate great god with an upright character.
Zhen Yuanzi admired Master Tongtian very much. Whether it was for his brothers or his disciples, Master Tongtian did a good job. For his brothers, Master Tongtian always tolerated him. For his disciples, even if he knew he couldn't do anything, he still did it for the sake of his disciples. There is a glimmer of hope, even if you lose your holy position, you still have to do it.
"On the day Tongtian was born, when Zhu Xian reunited, his path was already clear. How could Hunyuan Wuji be the target?" Hongyun stood up and looked in the direction of Jin Turtle Island, and said thoughtfully.
