Chapter 4712

"Laojun, have you finished making arrangements now?" Tathagata Buddha asked.

"Everything has been arranged. Don't worry, Lord Tathagata." Taishang Laojun smiled and sat down aside.

"Old Master, it's really puzzling that Nanshan Monk and I were dealt with by others. I wonder if there has been any new progress recently?" Tathagata Buddha is very concerned about this matter and is also very worried. , must be clarified, otherwise it will be difficult for him to proceed with peace of mind.

Taishang Laojun touched his beard and said: "In recent times, I have been sending people to investigate, but there are still no clues. Now these people in the Three Realms came to see me, and I think the most likely one is Bodhi Patriarch."

Tathagata Buddha also nodded slightly, "The possibility of Patriarch Bodhi is indeed very high, and in the eyes of everyone in the three realms, this Patriarch Bodhi is a member of the Taoist sect, but he has also practiced Buddhism. It can be said that he is a person who is proficient in Buddhism and Taoism in the Three Realms. , do you think the Buddhism he practiced back then was just to deal with us?"

"I'm not sure about this, but I remember that when Patriarch Bodhi practiced Buddhism, it was because he encountered obstacles when practicing Taoism and felt that the Dharma was not working well, so he switched to Buddhism. But after practicing for some time, he felt that Buddhism is not as good as Taoism, so we have returned to Taoism. Until now, Patriarch Bodhi practices Taoism and Buddhism at the same time. Among his disciples in Xie Yue Sanxing Cave, many disciples are fellow practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism, but they But I don’t know.” Taishang Laojun said and smiled.

"I always feel that this Patriarch Bodhi is a bit weird. He also wants to become very strong, but he did not improve his strength several times before. He always hides motionless in Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai. I feel that he has great power. His plan is in progress, and the target of his plan is our Buddhist sect." Tathagata Buddha turned the rosary in his hand and became even more worried.

Taishang Laojun was also thinking. He and Tathagata Buddha had similar thoughts.

"We are thinking so much here now, but there is no progress. How about we find an opportunity to go to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain to meet Patriarch Bodhi?" Taishang Laojun looked at Tathagata Buddha.

After Tathagata thought for a while, he nodded in agreement, "It's good to go and meet with Patriarch Bodhi, just so you can find out what he is thinking in his heart. Otherwise, we will never understand this Patriarch Bodhi. I seem to be I haven’t seen him in years.”

The same is true for Taishang Laojun.

For so many years, the two sides of the Buddhist and Taoist sects have been fighting. Patriarch Bodhi has never intervened in this matter, so they rarely see Patriarch Bodhi. After not seeing each other for so many years, they don't know what has become of Patriarch Bodhi.

"It seems that we have been negligent. If we had visited Patriarch Bodhi often before, maybe we could also understand what his plan is now." Tathagata Buddha suddenly sighed slightly, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

If they had communicated more with Patriarch Bodhi earlier, they would have learned something from Patriarch Bodhi's words and deeds even if he was hiding it.

Chapter 2086: Don’t worry about Immortal Zhenyuan anymore

Taishang Laojun sat aside and smiled, that was indeed the case.

"By the way, Patriarch Bodhi has a total of eight disciples. Except for Sun Wukong and Xuan Uchiha, when the other six disciples were practicing at Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai, Patriarch Bodhi not only taught them the Dharma, but also taught them Buddhism. However, Uchiha Gen and Sun Wukong were not taught these things, why do you think this is?" Tathagata asked.

"I think Patriarch Bodhi did this because he wanted to use Sun Wukong and Gen Uchiha to deal with us and your Buddhist sect. After all, when he accepted these two people, he probably wanted to deal with me and you." Taishang Laojun said.

After Tathagata Buddha thought for a while, he shook his head, "If he really wants to deal with us, he will not only teach Taoism but not Buddhism. As the saying goes, know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles. If you really want to use Sun Wukong and Uchi If the two Bo Xuan were to deal with us Buddhists, they would definitely teach them the Dharma, but they didn't."

Taishang Laojun was slightly startled. What Tathagata Buddha said makes sense.

"Then why does the Tathagata Tathagata think this is happening?" Taishang Laojun asked, but he didn't quite understand.

"I didn't know before, but judging from the current situation, I have a bold guess. I feel that Patriarch Bodhi did not teach them. Buddhism should be used to control Sun Wukong and Uchiha Xuan in the future." Tathagata Buddha thought. After a while he opened his eyes and said.

Taishang Laojun was startled again, is this possible?

"Even if Patriarch Bodhi doesn't befriend them, the two of them are often with Jin Chanzi. In addition, Uchiha Xuan is smarter. He also understands Buddhism. When he was in Luodao Mountain, he was with Buddhism. One of his disciples talked about Buddhism and won the admiration of many Buddhist disciples." Taishang Laojun said.

Tathagata Buddha: "Uchiha Gen was indeed very powerful in discussing Buddhism at the beginning, but that was only his understanding of Buddhism, not his true understanding of Buddhism."

"What does this mean?" Taishang Laojun didn't quite understand what Tathagata Buddha said.

"Tai Shang Laojun, this Dharma is not so easy to learn. You must practice it from the beginning, and then the master will lead you to understand this Dharma. Be infiltrated by the Dharma from an early age, just like Just like you need to eat since childhood, if you don't eat since childhood, your body will starve to death. It depends on your spiritual existence, but your body is no longer there. Now if your spirit eats, your body will not grow. Because there is no more." Tathagata Buddha said to Taishang Laojun.

Taishang Laojun sat there thinking, and seemed to understand something in his heart.

Buddhism is very powerful, but it also feels ethereal. If you want to make Buddhism really strong and increase your power, you must practice Buddhism from an early age. From the very beginning of your practice, Go practice Buddhism and let Buddhism enter your body, bones, and soul bit by bit.

In this case, your foundation of Buddhism will become very strong in the future, you will go further on the path of Buddhism, and your understanding of Buddhism will be deeper.

If you don't do this when you start practicing, it will be very, very difficult to gain enlightenment halfway through. Even if you are very smart and can gain enlightenment, you won't be able to go far on this path.

Facing those Buddhists who have practiced Buddhism since childhood and have the Dharma infiltrated into their souls, you will definitely suffer a loss in fighting against the Dharma, no matter how powerful you are.

"So now that Gen Uchiha is practicing such Buddhism, even if he can achieve certain achievements, it is still difficult to integrate Buddhism into his body and soul. What if in the future, someone in this Buddhist sect can really do it? If you fully understand and integrate Buddhism, no one can defeat him or kill him, unless you integrate all Buddhism like that person, or you can integrate all Taoism like your Taoism, and then you can be with him. He resisted.”

Tathagata Buddha continued after a pause.

After hearing this, Taishang Laojun felt a little worried.

"But we don't have to worry about this. It is very difficult, almost impossible, to integrate all the Buddhist dharma. It is also very difficult for Patriarch Bodhi to do this. I just said this, I just want to say that Patriarch Bodhi did not teach Uchiha Gen and Sun Wukong Buddhism because he wanted to take advantage of the cultivation of Buddhism, so that he could suppress the two of them." Buddha Tathagata said again.

Taishang Laojun nodded, already understanding a lot in his heart.

If you had thought about this before, the two of them would definitely not have been able to understand it, but judging from the current situation, they understand a lot.

"I really didn't expect that we would be tricked by the Bodhi Patriarch. We haven't paid attention to him for such a long time." Taishang Laojun smiled.

"It's okay to notice now, at least he hasn't completed his plan yet." Tathagata Buddha also said.

The two of them are now almost convinced that Patriarch Bodhi is the one who deals with Buddhism. Although there is no evidence, it is almost confirmed.

Who else could do this except Patriarch Bodhi?

Prince Dong of Penglai Island, Empress Xuannv of Nanhai, and Empress Nuwa would not do this. Even if they did, I am afraid they would not have the ability.

"How is the Great Immortal Zhenyuan? Has he never come out?" Tathagata Buddha asked again.

Ever since the incident at Wuzhuang Temple, Immortal Zhenyuan has been staying in Wuzhuang Temple. He said he wanted to be quiet and practice, but he did not come out to do things with them.

Taishang Laojun smiled, "I think Master Zhenyuan should be a little hesitant now. Gen Uchiha said something to him last time. Although we don't know what they talked about, it was probably to win over Zhenyuan. Great Immortal, Great Immortal Zhenyuan has changed a bit now, and everyone in the three realms knows that he and Sun Wukong are sworn brothers, so it is impossible for him to deal with Xuanzang and others directly, so we still ignore him."

Tathagata Buddha was stunned for a moment and glanced at Taishang Laojun. What Taishang Laojun said was very plain, but Tathagata Buddha knew that Taishang Laojun was not going to cooperate with Zhenyuan Immortal anymore.

In the last sentence just now, Taishang Laojun said that he would no longer care about Immortal Zhenyuan in the future, which meant that he would no longer cooperate with him.

"Do you really don't care?"

"Honorable Tathagata, do you think we can continue to take care of it? If Zhenyuan Immortal is allowed to continue to cooperate with us, will you feel comfortable letting him participate in this matter?" Taishang Laojun asked with a smile.

Chapter 2087 Sneaking into Leiyin Temple

Tathagata Buddha also smiled, but he really couldn't feel at ease.

After all, the relationship between Immortal Zhenyuan and Uchiha Gen, Sun Wukong and others has changed a bit, and it can be said that it has become better.

Even if they now bring the Immortal Zhenyuan over to discuss those secret matters with the Immortal Zhenyuan, they will feel uneasy. What if he tells Uchiha Gen and others about this matter?

"But I think we still need to have more contact with the Great Immortal Zhenyuan, and we still need to win him over, otherwise these and other people are likely to side with Gen Uchiha, and then we will have another powerful opponent. "Tathagata Buddha said.

"This is indeed a problem, but I think Zhenyuan Immortal is not so brainless. If he wants to follow Uchiha Gen, it will not be easy, and he will have to bear a lot of risks. I think in a short time Within a certain period of time, he will never help Uchiha Gen, and at worst he will remain neutral." Taishang Laojun touched his beard and thought for a while.

Tathagata Buddha agreed to this matter and said nothing more.

As the saying goes, after Uchiha Gen left Buddha Eye Valley, he headed towards Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

He still didn't go to Lingshan for revenge, so he wasn't in a hurry. He had more time for revenge, and now he wanted to see his master.

Uchiha Gen came to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain again. His senior brothers did not come back and should still be at Huaguo Mountain.

"What's the matter?" Patriarch Bodhi was walking on the mountain road, probably for a walk.
