Chapter 876 Confrontation Between Buddhism and Taoism 【Please Subscribe for Monthly Ticket】
Many monks other than Xiaoleiyin heard the voice in the Daxiong Hall, and immediately stood on both sides.
They got out of the way, but they still stared at Monkey King and the others with unkind expressions.
"Buddha has summoned you, hurry up and enter the Daxiong Palace."
"But I advise you to be cautious after entering the Daxiong Palace, and you must not be rude."
After Sun Wukong and others heard the advice of these monks, their faces were full of disdain, and their eyes were full of arrogance.
"Let my old grandson go in and see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."
Sun Wukong was the first to enter the Daxiong Palace, Zhu Bajie, Hong Haier and others followed in succession.
Many monks stopped their way from behind, and at the same time stared at the broken six-eared macaque.
The eyes of the six-eared macaque also fell on them, and they couldn't help frowning.
He always felt that these monks were a bit weird. Although he had never been to Lingshan, he had seen many people from the Buddhist sect.
The Dharma of these monks is so rich that they really seem to be authentic Buddhists, but their heartbeats are different from those of the Buddhist monks, and they seem to be more violent and faster.
The six-eared macaques always feel that their heartbeats are a bit like monsters, but the breath, demeanor and behavior of these monks are like people from the Buddhist sect.
For this reason, he didn't have too much doubt, but just kept a close eye on these monks to prevent accidents.
After Sun Wukong stepped into the Daxiong Palace, he saw many great figures in Buddhism, including Guanyin Bodhisattva and many Arhat Buddhas.
The Tathagata Buddha sat on the first seat, looking down at their group.
"Hey, why don't you see your Buddhist scripture learners, it seems that we are the first to arrive."
"Old man Tathagata, we have already arrived at the Lingshan Mountain in the Western Heaven. At the beginning, we agreed to give lectures on Buddhism. Which one of you will come first now?"
Tathagata Buddha said: "Sun Wukong, you came from the Great Qin Empire just to spread your etiquette and morality in Buddhism. I don't have time to accompany you to preach and talk about Buddhism."
"I give you 3,000 volumes of Buddhism. If you can comprehend, I will admit that your skills are superior, and you will not travel eastward with Buddhism within a hundred years."
Sun Wukong sneered and said, "It's only within a hundred years? I want your Buddhist sect to never travel eastward with Buddhism."
The Buddhas were a little angry and accused Sun Wukong and others one after another.
The Tathagata Buddha's expression was flat: "If you can comprehend 3,000 volumes of Buddhism, I can consider not mentioning the eastward travel of Buddhism within 500 years."
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up. In fact, he didn't have the confidence to prevent Buddhism from traveling eastward for too long. Now that we can talk about 500 years, it is already long enough.
With 500 years of development, it is enough to make their belief in the Great Qin Empire indestructible. If Buddhism wants to spread on the land of the Great Qin Empire, it is no different from mortals ascending to heaven.
And Sun Wukong also understands that it is impossible to prevent Buddhism from traveling eastward for a lifetime, and it is enough to prevent Buddhism from setting foot in the Great Qin Empire within 500 years.
So Sun Wukong agreed, "Okay, my old grandson will make the decision on his own and make the decision for the master. Show your Dharma. It's not like there are people on our side who don't understand the Dharma."
Jin Chanzi stepped forward and volunteered, "Master, there are three thousand volumes of Mahayana Buddhism, which are extremely obscure and difficult to understand. Even in my previous life, I only comprehended three to five hundred volumes of them. If we understand it thoroughly, I am afraid we need our senior brothers and others to work together to comprehend it."
Sun Wukong nodded, "Although your previous life was very profound in Buddhism, your understanding and opportunities were far inferior to this life. With Master, I will guide you in the maze, lay the foundation of Taoism, and improve your understanding. Come and understand this world again." Mahayana Buddhism is nothing more than this."
Jin Chanzi nodded again and again, "Elder brother's words are very true, so please leave the 3,000 volumes of Mahayana Buddhism to me for enlightenment."
Tathagata Buddha said again: "This seat has not waited for you for too long, so you can study together, and I only give you half a month."
Sun Wukong and the others immediately exploded, especially Sun Wukong directly reprimanded: "In half a month, it is not easy to read these 3,000 Buddhist teachings, let alone comprehend them all."
Tathagata Buddha said: "It seems that you are just deceiving the world and stealing your name. If you are not convinced, you can take out your Tao Te Ching Huang Ting Jing. My Buddhist sect has its own masters who can understand it. It will take half a month to see through it."
How could Sun Wukong and others be willing to take out the Tao Te Ching and Huang Ting Jing, not to mention that they also knew that many people in Buddhism were originally big figures from the Taoist side, and they must have already familiarized themselves with the Tao Te Ching and Huang Ting Jing.
It's just that they may not be able to comprehend to the level of Sun Wukong and others, but it is still very easy to understand.
Sun Wukong and others were in a difficult position for a while, and they were reluctant to take out the Tao Te Ching and Huang Ting Jing, and if they chose not to read Mahayana Buddhism, they would be at a disadvantage again.
Therefore, after Sun Wukong hesitated for a while, he didn't want to lose the face of his master, so he decided that several of his brothers and sisters would join forces to comprehend Buddhism.
But in order to avoid being disturbed by the Buddhists when he was studying the Dharma, he chose to let Hong Haier and Ao Lie be responsible for protecting the Dharma.
First of all, Honghaier's strength is relatively weak, and his comprehension is really average among the brothers and sisters. Secondly, his comprehension of the Tao Te Ching and Huang Ting Jing is only at a superficial level, and his foundation is not stable. May be unstable.
As for Ao Lie, his comprehension is second to none among the Dragon Clan, but Ao Lie practiced the Ancestral Dragon Art, and the Tao Te Ching and Huang Ting Jing have only cultivated to an ordinary level.
I dare not say that his Dao heart is unstable, but his comprehension ability is after all inferior to others.
The second is that one or two strong people are always needed to watch. Hong Haier's strength is the weakest among all the people present. If Ao Lie's strength is fully erupted, it will be second only to Monkey King and Six Eared Macaque.
With the two of them protecting the Dharma, it will be safer for Sun Wukong and others to comprehend Mahayana Buddhism.
Only the six-eared macaque frowned. He always felt that there must be a conspiracy in this move by the Buddhist school. After all, Mahayana Buddhism, even those who do not have the status of Bodhisattva in Buddhism are not allowed to read it.
How come the Tathagata Buddha was willing to take it out as a test, and let them read it for enlightenment.
In fact, Sun Wukong also had doubts in his heart, so when turning the pages of Mahayana Buddhism, he repeatedly told his brothers and sisters to be careful in everything and not to fall into it.
He was worried that the Tathagata Buddha would play tricks on Mahayana Buddhism, leading them astray and being possessed by demons.
Soon Sun Wukong and the others worked together in a division of labor and began to read the Dacheng Buddhadharma.
When they were deeply comprehended, all the Buddhas in the Daxiong Palace looked at each other, and everyone had a strange and unpredictable smile on their faces.
