The Monkey King - Chapter 787
The next moment, faces flashed by. Xuanzang’s mother, Xuanzang’s father, Xuanzang’s grandfather, Master Faming, Elder Jinchi, Emperor Taizong… Everyone repeated the same sentence to him invariably.
“It is better to become a Buddha than to become a Buddha…”
was repeated like a mantra, like sharp knives, piercing straight into Xuanzang’s heart.
At that moment, the pain from the depths of the soul spread to every corner of the body along the bloodline, Xuanzang’s entire body was a little bit unable to maintain his body, he couldn’t even breathe, and the pain was unbearable. He covered his ears tightly, staggered, staggered, and almost fell to his knees.
No one can see Xuanzang’s inner struggle, no one understands Xuanzang’s suffering at the moment, just as no one has understood his determination to go west.
Everyone just stared blankly, watching, indifferent and powerless.
In the main hall, the Tathagata opened his lips slightly and kept silently reciting: “It is better to become a Buddha than to become a Buddha…”
“No…no-!” Xuanzang shouted in a voice: “The poor monk has become a Buddha, the poor monk has become a Buddha, how can sentient beings be liberated!”
The ten thousand Buddha crowns have already fallen to the ground, rolling slightly. In the breeze, his monk robes fluttered gently. Tears welled up.
That gaffe appearance is unprecedented. Even when he learned the truth about his own murder of his father and mother, it never happened.
Everyone was staring blankly, even the monkeys. The big stone in my heart that I had put down was raised again.
“All sentient beings are ignorant. If you can make it through, why do you need to come?” The Tathagata asked back.
Xuanzang shivered slightly and curled up to the ground. He opened his eyes that had been invisible for a long time, and still moved westward little by little. He kept repeating the words he said to Emperor Taizong in the Tang Palace that day: “If the Buddhas of the West do not pass over sentient beings, I will pass… If the Buddhas of the West do not send sutras, I will go and fetch them… If the sentient beings do not seek the Dharma, I will pass Send it to… if all living beings don’t transcend me, I will transcend all beings…”
“You cross sentient beings, what do you use to cross?” The Tathagata took a deep breath, raised his head slightly, closed his eyes and said, “Eight hundred years ago, you questioned the Dharma of your master, and you had to argue with the master. My teacher depends on you. As a result, you have fallen into the demon barrier and lost the Buddha’s light. You could have re-cultivated for a hundred years and then ascended to the Buddha’s throne, but you chose to fall into samsara and experience the suffering of all beings…”
“After 800 years of reincarnation, ten times of reincarnation, and all the sufferings in the world, I thought you would know your mistake and turn your back, but in the end, you chose to go west and have to argue with your teacher again.”
“Going west all the way, who did you cross, and what did you prove?”
At this moment, that voice was not only about Xuanzang, but had already reached the ears of every being in the Three Realms.
Lingxiao Palace was silent, all the demons looked at each other, and all the Buddhas in the sky were expressionless. The four Buddhas in the pavilion also did not say a word.
Everyone was listening quietly, their eyes slightly widened.
“Chechi country, it should be a quiet and peaceful land, but because of your arrival, there are killings everywhere. Who did you purify?”
“Begging France, the king wanted the law with all his heart, but begged for death. The people believed in you, but fell into reincarnation. In the next life, you will start from scratch again. Who have you crossed?”
“Everything is because of you, not to mention the release of the demon monkey under the Five Elements Mountain.” With a faint sigh, the Tathagata continued: “Look at how this world has been destroyed. All this, is it? Isn’t that what your original intention was from the beginning? If it weren’t for your obsession, even if this world is not perfect, it would not be like this. Good flowers can also bear bad results.”
The words of the Tathagata resounded throughout the three realms, and everyone was listening quietly.
In the Tushita Palace, Lao Jun lowered his head and rubbed his fingers lightly.
In the shrine of Nuwa, Subhuti caressed the emerald wall and waited silently.
In the wilderness, the wounded Hydra slowly raised its head with the help of the Halloween princess.
In the dense forest, Bai Su, who was wearing torn clothes, looked around blankly.
At this moment, Qingxin is rushing to Xiniu Hezhou at the fastest speed, and Yang Chan is also rushing to Xiniu Hezhou at the fastest speed with the multi-eyed monster, the Peng Demon King, and the Lion Camel King.
Xuanzang curled up and whispered: “Even if…even if there is a possibility of bad consequences, shouldn’t we prove the Dao? Shouldn’t we seek a Purdue future for all sentient beings?”
“Yes.” The Tathagata replied decisively: “But the premise is that you must have the ability to control all this. But do you have it? You failed to control the demon monkey, but released him. You failed to The situation in the Three Realms left and right, but one stone caused a thousand waves. To this day, you still do not admit that all this was caused by your recklessness?”
Xuanzang clenched his teeth and trembled slightly. At this moment, there was no trace of blood on his lips. Drops of sweat slowly fell from his forehead.
He slowly stretched out a hand, digging his fingers deeply into the soil. The pain of the body and the pain of the heart are mixed together, and it has already exceeded his tolerance. However, he did not faint. Because the Tathagata is supporting him with his consciousness.
He is forcing him.
Buddhas want a result, the Tathagata, why not?
In the distance, the monkey raised his head and smiled slowly.
What a coincidence, what a wonderful thing. At the beginning, wasn’t he so arguing that he broke his heart and lost his cultivation?
Slowly opening his eyes, the Tathagata continued: “The world is turbid and ingenious, how can it be changed with just one blood? From the day you chose to fall into reincarnation, you have lost your supernatural powers, lost Lost control of the situation. Lost the possibility of proving Purdue.”
In the pain, Xuanzang cried out: “But, dare to ask the Buddha, if the poor monk does not fall into reincarnation, how can he understand the suffering of all beings, how can he regain his obsession, and how can he be saved?”
“Yes.” The Tathagata smiled lightly, and then said: “So, this is a dead end in itself. Only by letting go of obsessions can one become a Buddha. Only when one becomes a Buddha can one have supernatural powers. Only with vision can it be possible to purify the world. But becoming a Buddha itself means giving up Purdue and choosing to do it yourself.”
Xuanzang opened his mouth slightly, and blue veins appeared on his forehead. He was shaking constantly, his eyes widened. Not a word could be said.
In the pavilion, the four Buddhas stood quietly.
Zhengfa Ming Tathagata stared at the tea cup on the table and sighed long.
“If you want to travel west, you want to get scriptures. This seat will tell you now that on the way to the west, there is no scripture you want. There is no scripture in the Daleiyin Temple in this seat. There has never been one of these three realms, and in the future, it will not be there. There is the sutra you want. All of it, let’s stop here. It’s better to become a Buddha.”
“No…poor monks cannot become Buddhas…poor monks…cannot become…Buddhas…”
Under the interweaving of physical and mental pain for a long time, he has gradually become numb.
Seeing this, the Tathagata could not help but smile slowly.
“Close your eyes and cover your ears? Only those who are obsessed can hear without hearing and turn a blind eye. However, have you dried up your heart? Once your heart is dried up, you will become a Buddha. If your heart is there, you will not be able to escape the question of this seat! “
Xuanzang didn’t answer, he couldn’t answer. He could only struggle, and still moved in the direction of Lingshan little by little.
The rocks tore through his robes, and the seeping blood fell in the dust, fainting little by little.
At this moment, everyone already understands that going west is a complete failure. The rest is nothing but the battle of the trapped beasts.
But who can do it?
Everyone can only wait quietly, waiting for the result of the final westward journey, even the monkeys slowly closed their eyes.
However, at this moment, a flash of light flashed. Even the Tathagata opened his eyes slightly. An illusory shadow appeared behind Xuanzang.
The head of a human being, the body of a snake, a huge body, but it is either light or dark, and has no entity.
Everyone was stunned.
Nuwa!
Inside the shrine, Subhuti pursed his lips and smiled slowly, his eyes gradually moistening as he stared at the emerald wall.
In front of everyone, Nuwa stretched out her hands and condensed a ball of light in the air, covering Xuanzang’s body.
“Child, let me be a mother and protect you through this last journey. Do whatever you want to do. You are right, no one can deny you, even if he is a Buddha, his words are conclusive. , too.”
In an instant, all the pain on Xuanzang’s body disappeared, and all the hallucinations dissipated!
