Chapter 423 The Poisonous Monk
The auspicious mist is scattered in colorful colors, the auspicious light protects the Dharma body, holding a vase in his hand, with a weeping willow inserted in the vase!
It is the image of Guanyin.
She could have just left, but with such a vicious Master Xuanzang, how could she still find Buddhist scripture seekers in the East? How else can Buddhism be spread eastward?
In addition, she was trapped by Tang Yan's words, so she had to show the Dharma to prove what she said.
When Li Shimin saw the leprous monk suddenly transformed into Guanyin, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, but saw Master Xuanzang looking at Guanyin Bodhisattva indifferently.
"You monster monk, you can't speak with your eyes, so you changed into the appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva to deceive all the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty!" Tang Yan said to the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the sky with righteousness.
"Xuan Zang!" Guanyin said: "The brocade cassock and the nine-ringed tin staff were given by me, Buddha Tathagata. You insist on saying that the evil weapon will be immersed in the cesspit! I am Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea, but you insist on saying that I am a demon monk!"
"I think you are a foolish monk who confuses people with your lies and confuses right and wrong!" Guanyin said with a low eyebrow.
When it comes to quarrels and blame-shifting, Tang Yan is a stubborn duck, not to mention where is this!
Seeing the distrustful looks from the civil and military officials of the court and Li Shimin, Tang Yan stretched out three fingers and said, "I have three questions. After asking, you will know who is confusing right and wrong!"
"You won't let me ask, right?" Tang Yan looked sideways at Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Guanyin Bodhisattva looked at Tang Yan and said nothing. She could not prevent Tang Yan from asking in front of the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty. Doesn't this confirm that she is a demon monk?
"You said that Mahayana Buddhism can transcend the dead and ascend to heaven, and can save people from suffering. The Buddhism is in the Great Leiyin Temple in Tianzhu, Daxitian."
"Then I would like to ask, have all the dead in Tianzhu Kingdom ascended to heaven, and no one will suffer anymore? Is there no method to save the souls of the dead in the Eastern Land? Is it true that only Mahayana Buddhism can save the dead?"
What are the three questions? This is simply murderous and heart-breaking!
Of course, there are dead people in Tianzhu who have not ascended to heaven, and there are naturally other ways to save the souls of the dead in Eastern China. Of course, it is not Mahayana Buddhism that can save the dead!
Guanyin looked at Tang Yan, and Tang Yan looked at Guanyin with open eyes. Does that mean you can beat me to death if you can?
She could not answer these three questions directly, so Guanyin said: "You monster monk, you are deceiving the public with your evil words. Of the three treasures of true scriptures, one treasure of Dharma is used to talk about heaven; one treasure of discussion is to talk about the earth; one treasure of sutra is to save ghosts; there are three treasures in total. The fifteen volumes, totaling fifteen thousand one hundred and forty-four volumes, are the path to cultivation and the door to righteousness and goodness.”
"I was originally afraid that you would be so stupid, slander the truth, not understand the essence of the Dharma, and neglect the authentic teachings of Yoga. I didn't expect that there are still foolish monks like you in the world! It seems that this good Dharma has no destiny in the Tang Dynasty!"
After saying that, the auspicious clouds gradually faded away, and the golden light disappeared in an instant. The Guanyin and Muzha have disappeared.
Tang Yan sneered in his heart. He wanted to fight back in self-defense and try to see what level of Bodhisattva in the real world he was.
"This..." Li Shimin was a little confused about who was real and who was fake?
If it was really Guanyin, why was he questioned repeatedly by Master Xuanzang and then left in a hurry?
If it is a fake Guanyin, then the majesty of Guanyin cannot be faked!
"Sage, that is just a demonic monk's transformation, not the real Guanyin. If Guanyin Bodhisattva saves the suffering, there is really a treasured scripture, why hide it?" Tang Yan still looked calm and calm, which really made Li Shimin feel at ease. few.
Could it be that my concentration is no better than that of a mage?
He saw that all the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty also knelt down with joy when Guanyin showed her appearance. Then he thought that he and Xuanzang were the only ones who did not kneel down. Master Xuanzang had a miserable life experience. He had been in the wild since he was a child. He must have seen a lot. He must have been undefeated when he saw a true Bodhisattva. So... that must be a fake Bodhisattva!
"Master is so well-informed!" Li Shimin regained his imperial demeanor and said to the officials: "What kind of fake Bodhisattva have you seen, showing his ugly face, which makes him look more like a master!"
"Don't blame them!" Tang Yan said: "I also heard that someone pretended to be the Great Sun Tathagata and built a temple called Xiaoleiyin Temple! Such a method of pretending to be a Bodhisattva is really too common!"
"The Master is well-informed!" Seeing Xuanzang's shameless bragging, all the officials could only agree.
"The water and land conference, the poor monk is going to continue!" After Tang Yan said this, he continued to go to the Dharma platform and recite some words.
However, after the sermon, Li Shimin returned to the palace and had a nightmare that night. He dreamed that the dead souls of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were accompanied by 64 smoke and dust, 72 grass bandits, and the ghosts of princes and leaders. Ask him for an explanation.
"Give me back my life! Shimin! Give me back my life!" Li Jiansheng's ghost came to Li Shimin with his head and said, frightening Li Shimin's face.
Li Shimin thought of his experience in the underworld and said quickly: "I have already arranged the water and land conference! I have already arranged the water and land conference!"
"I want your life! Where are you looking for a crooked monk who is reciting false scriptures and fooling us unjust ghosts!" Li Jiansheng said with his head floating: "Take your life!"
With that said, he and Li Yuanji's dead soul pounced on Li Shimin.
"Don't kill me! Don't harm me!" When Li Shimin saw the evil spirit coming, he quickly blocked it with his hands, but he couldn't resist it. I felt like I was being attacked by evil spirits, and my whole body felt chilly. When I opened my eyes again, I woke up from a dream.
"Huh...it turned out to be a nightmare!" Li Shimin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but saw a series of black footprints in front of the bed, and black handprints on the bed sheets!
"Master Xuanzang!" he said quickly to the eunuch who was watching the night.
When Tang Yan came to the palace wearing the ordinary brown clothes, he saw that Li Shimin had returned to his demeanor, and there were Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin standing next to him. When Li Shimin saw Tang Yan, he told Tang Yan what happened in his dream and asked calmly: "What does the Master think?"
"Unexpectedly, there is an evil spirit interfering with the saint. The poor monk has two strategies." Tang Yan found a place to sit down and said.
Li Shimin saw that Tang Yan was so calm, not at all like he was after being exposed, so he said, "What's the plan?"
"Let's talk about the next strategy first. Ghosts are the death of people, and people are living ghosts. Cui Yu is just an old minister, so he can become a judge. Today's saints include civil servants such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng, as well as Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin. , Qin Shubao and other generals, which one is not stronger than Cui Yu?"
"You mean?" Li Shimin understood. He felt that the pale-faced monk in front of him was really evil!
"I'm just sending them down to clean up the evil spirits for His Majesty so that they can't do it again!" Tang Yan said calmly.
Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin, who were standing behind Li Shimin, looked at each other and thought that this monk was so vicious! Kill the living to quell the ghost trouble!
If Li Shimin hadn't been there, the two of them would have hit the monk with pumpkins until his brains exploded!
