Chapter 370 Holy Monk! I Want to Learn Buddhism!

"Even though the Holy Monk of the Tang Dynasty has arrived, please hurry up and take your seat!"

After the rope was untied, Tang Sanzang was a little confused. He thought the black bear spirit would hesitate or be entangled, but he didn't expect it to be so decisive.

Guanyin Bodhisattva’s vision is not bad!

Seeing the black bear spirit being so aggressive, Tang Sanzang smiled and nodded. He originally wanted to do a scene of capturing the black bear seven times, but let's forget it now.

After sitting down, Tang Sanzang looked at him and said, "I don't think your majesty looks like that mountain spirit. Instead, he has some immortal charm. But why do you do such sneaky things?"

"this……"

The black bear spirit was speechless for a moment and couldn't answer.

He was indeed greedy. If it were other treasures, he might not be able to catch his eye, but the Jinlan cassock was the most precious treasure of Buddhism, and he was really greedy.

"Now that the holy monk has discovered it, I won't hesitate!" Black Bear Spirit stood up, patted his chest and said, "That cassock is indeed in my hand, but Elder Jinchi defrauded it from you first, and then I took it from him. We need to figure out the order."

The black bear spirit rolled his eyes and said with a grin: "Holy monk, in ancient times, the Buddha cut meat to feed the eagles. Now, I have fallen in love with a precious cassock. Are you willing to learn the way of the Buddha and bear the pain of cutting off your love?"

Hearing his words, Tang Sanzang also laughed and discussed Buddhism with the host of the Water and Land Dharma Assembly? That's really interesting.

"Your Majesty, the Buddha feeds the eagle because God has the virtue of good life and does not want the eagle to commit the sin of killing again, so he cuts his meat and feeds it to the eagle. The king wants the cassock just to satisfy his greed. If the poor monk gives you the cassock, he is not helping you. You, but harmed you."

Tang Sanzang advised with sincerity: "Your Majesty, I see that you have a heart for the Buddha, but don't ruin your great future because of temporary greed!"

"Elder Jinchi of Guanyin Temple almost died because of greed. His life span of more than two hundred years was almost gone in one day. Don't follow in his footsteps."

"Hmph!" The black bear spirit stood up abruptly: "After saying so much, I still can't bear to part with your precious cassock!"

He didn't believe Tang Sanzang's words because he had never seen a real eminent monk. He had been discussing Taoism with Jinchi for hundreds of years, and he had never seen even a few serious people.

However, even so, he still relied on his talent and understanding to touch the threshold of Buddhism.

Although he does not adhere to the Eight Precepts of Buddhism on weekdays, he does not do anything too outrageous.

But precisely because of his own incompetence and Jinchi's usual virtue, he felt that other monks, including Tang Sanzang, should not be much different.

"Alas~" Tang Sanzang sighed. He put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, could you please bring me your cassock?"

The black bear spirit thought for a while and realized that Tang Sanzang was just an ordinary person and there was no way he could be snatched away. He went over to take the cassock and said:

"Let you watch for a while."

Tang Sanzang did not answer his words, but looked at the cassock in front of him and said: "This cassock was given by Guanyin Bodhisattva. It is embedded with seven treasures. It is invulnerable to water and fire. It can protect oneself from evil spirits. The poor monk has never dared to wear it. He thought about when Wear it again when you go to the West to meet the Buddha."

Hearing this, the black bear spirit felt a little guilty. He didn't expect this cassock to be of such great significance. Then he stared at Tang Sanzang. Could it be that he wanted to scare him?

But the next second, he was indeed frightened.

Tang Sanzang took out a small knife from somewhere and immediately made a few cuts on his cassock.

The originally glittering cassock was immediately damaged, and the black bear spirit shouted anxiously: "Holy Monk! What are you doing!"

"If this thing harms the heart of the great king Buddha, then the poor monk would rather destroy it!"

"But! Didn't you say this was a gift from the Bodhisattva!" Hei Xiongjing said distressedly.

"No matter how good the treasure is, it is only a foreign object. But if the king can get rid of greed in his heart and devote himself to the Buddha, this cassock will be considered a complete meritorious deed!"

While he was talking, Tang Sanzang had cut his cassock into pieces, making it completely dull.

Black Bear stood there blankly, a little at a loss. He didn't expect that Tang Sanzang would dare to destroy such a precious cassock.

Or are the treasures given by Guanyin Bodhisattva just to get rid of greed?

Black Bear Spirit's mood was very complicated for a while. He had only heard various Buddhist allusions before, and he yearned for it, but he had never seen it in real life.

He also noticed the virtues of Elder Jinchi on weekdays, and was influenced by him without knowing it. He became a bit obsessed with collecting, especially cassocks.

Therefore, after seeing the Jinlan cassock, he immediately wanted to take it for himself. Because Jinchi had always been like this, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

But now Tang Sanzang's actions made him understand what an eminent monk is!

The mane was a little wet, and the corners of the black bear spirit's eyes were filled with tears at some point. He plopped down on the ground, hugged Tang Sanzang's thighs with a pair of big bear paws, and said excitedly:

"Holy Monk! I want to learn Buddhism!"

The black bear spirit had no peculiar smell on his body and was not heavy-handed. Tang Sanzang had already developed a big heart, so he was not too nervous.

He gently stroked his mane and said, "Your Majesty, you are sincere to the Buddha and intend to turn back. This is a great kindness."

"Well, this journey to the west is full of difficulties. You are willing to worship me as your teacher and go to the west to learn scriptures with me. The poor monks along the way will definitely teach me."

Black Bear was in a happy mood. He immediately coughed three times and said, "Disciple pays homage to the master!"

"Easy to say!" Tang Sanzang stretched out his hand to lift him up and said with a smile: "You and I met because of our cassocks. The poor monk gave you the Dharma name to enlighten your mind. I hope you will understand your original mind and no longer be trapped by greed, anger and ignorance."

"Thank you, Master, for the Dharma name!" The black bear demon got up excitedly, jumping around in the cave, saying, "I have a Dharma name! I have a master!"

His excitement was understandable. Having a Dharma name meant that he had officially embarked on the path of practicing Buddhism. Before, he was just an amateur.

Seeing this, the other little monsters looked confused and asked, "My king, you are going to the West to obtain the scriptures, so what should we do?"

Without waiting for the black bear demon to speak, Tang Sanzang said, "Amitabha, you have been with Wuxin for many years, so you must have some kindness. If you are willing to practice Buddhism, you can stay. I will send you to the Tang Dynasty. If you don't want to, you can leave on your own."

The black bear demon nodded and agreed, "Master is right, let's do it!"

The little monsters looked at each other, a small part of them left, and most of them were still in the cave. Tang Sanzang also smiled knowingly and called Sun Wukong over with his membership card.

"Wukong, the plan has changed. Send them to the Tang Dynasty to explain the situation to His Majesty, and keep some monkey hair for backup."

Sun Wukong witnessed it without saying anything, nodded in agreement, then wrapped up the group of little monsters and flew to Chang'an.

If the monkey hair is left in Chang'an, there is no need to worry about these little monsters rebelling.

Tang Sanzang's original plan was to try a few more disasters on the black bear monster, but now he can only put the plan on his brothers.

"Wu Xin."

The black bear monster reacted a little late and stepped forward and said, "Master, is there anything else."

"I remember you have two good friends. Are you willing to guide them to the right path?"

"Uh... Master, just tell me what to do."

"Come closer."
