Chapter 130: Emperor Xu reminds Zhen Yuanzi and talks about the journey of Buddhism to the East
The mountain where Wuzhuang Temple is located is really a good mountain.
The mountains are extremely high and the situation is majestic. The root is connected to the Kunlun Vein, and the top reaches Hanzhong. Every time the white crane comes to roost on the juniper cypress, and every time the black ape hangs on the vines. The sun shines in the clear forest, and thousands of red mists surround it; the wind creates gloomy valleys, and thousands of colorful clouds fly. The birds are singing in the green bamboos, and the golden pheasants are fighting among the wild flowers. I saw the Millennium Peak, Wufu Peak, and Furong Peak, towering and shining brightly; the Long Live Stone, Tiger Tooth Stone, and Tri-pointed Stone were filled with phosphorus and auspicious energy. The grass in front of the cliff is beautiful and the plum blossoms on the ridge are fragrant. The thorns are thick and dense, and the orchids are light. In the deep forest, eagles and phoenixes gather thousands of birds, and in the ancient cave, unicorns govern all beasts. The stream is affectionate, with many twists and turns; the peaks and ridges are continuous, overlapping and returning. Also see the green locust trees, mottled bamboos, and green pines, which have been blooming for thousands of years; the white plums, red peaches, and green willows are shining brightly in the three springs. Dragons roar and tigers roar, cranes dance and apes cry. The elk emerges from the flowers, and the green luan cries to the sun. It is a truly blessed place in the fairy mountain, Penglai Langyuan is just like this. I also saw some flowers blooming and declining on the mountain top, and the clouds were leaving Yunlai Mountain to reach the peak.
"Besides, when Emperor Xu came to Wuzhuang Temple, he did not enter the temple, but stood still at the door.
"A house of immortal immortals, a house of Taoists who live as long as heaven!"
Dixu silently recited the couplet on the door of Wuzhuang Taoist Temple that would not change despite the weather, laughed, and then sighed slightly, thinking secretly, "I wonder if I can survive this disaster, and whether I will still have the same spirit after it." Hang this couplet." After thinking about it, Dixu also suppressed his thoughts, but he came here this time to be a guiding light for Zhen Yuanzi in this disaster. If Zhen Yuanzi heard this, he would definitely be able to survive it safely. This time of calamity, there will be no more worries. So he yelled: "Great Immortal Zhenyuan, Patriarch of the Earth Immortal, if you can't hide, I will tear down your ruined view!"
"Who is it? Who dares to be so arrogant?" Zhen Yuanzi shouted angrily from the Wuzhuang Temple. Zhen Yuanzi rushed out of the Taoist temple, but there was no trace of anger on his face. Instead, he was smiling. He had noticed its arrival a long time ago, but he didn't know why Di Xu didn't come in directly.
"I've seen Brother Dao, how can anyone here say that they want to demolish Brother Dao's Wuzhuang Temple? If you let me know, I will be the first to let him know." When Emperor Zhen Yuanzi came out, Dixu changed his tune and said, "It's just a Taoist temple." Brother, that ginseng fruit is ripe! But I miss it very much!" Di Xu also showed this side in front of Zhen Yuanzi. When other people saw Di Xu, they all had expressionless faces, but they gave him a A feeling that is hard to talk about. If his disciples were to see their master in such an image, they would not know how much of the majestic master image would be left in their hearts.
Of course Zhen Yuanzi knew that he was the one who spoke just now, but he also knew that he was joking. Seeing Di Xu in such a state, he laughed and cursed: "You greedy guy, when will those thirty little fruits of mine mature?" You can calculate more accurately than me. Come in quickly, they were just ripe yesterday, and none of the thirty fruits have been touched. I wanted to invite you, but you came by yourself."
"That's very good. As the saying goes, it's better to come early than to come in time. Come in quickly." Dixu pulled Zhen Yuanzi and walked inside. It seemed that Dixu was the landlord and Zhen Yuanzi was the guest. Although Zhen Yuanzi was dumbfounded by Di Xu's actions, he was not angry in his heart. Instead, he felt that this was his true best friend, so he let him pull him inside while sending a message to Qingfeng Mingyue. The two went to pick fruits.
After entering the main hall and sitting down, Qingfeng Mingyue put the fruit away. Dixu picked it up and ate it without any courtesy, finishing the fruit in a flash. After eating it, that was all. Instead, as if it was not enough to stimulate Zhen Yuanzi, he said again: "Brother Taoist, your fruit is not good, but it is a bit missing!"
Zhen Yuanzi was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared, and cursed: "If you feel that you should not eat it, I will not serve you anymore."
Dixu said quickly: "Brother Dao, don't be angry, don't be angry, I will just say it. This time I came here to discuss important matters."
Zhen Yuanzi said, "What's important? Let's talk about it." Although Zhen Yuanzi said it as if he didn't care, he rebuked the people around him. Even Qingfeng Mingyue, who had been serving him, was ordered to leave. .
Dixu also changed the playful smile on his face and said seriously: "But this is the coming of Buddhism from the East."
After hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi was stunned and laughed loudly: "The most troublesome thing about Buddhism coming from the East is the Sanqing Dynasty! Although I don't like Buddhism, what does this matter have to do with me? I am just one of the world. Just a loose immortal."
Dixu didn't care and continued: "Originally, this matter has nothing to do with Brother Dao, but Brother Dao's Wuzhuang Temple is blocking his journey to the west."
Zhen Yuanzi said nonchalantly: "There are so many roads in the world, but how can you be sure that Buddhism has definitely entered my Wuzhuang Temple?"
Dixu waved his hand in the air, and a scroll with condensed mana instantly appeared, which was the current map of the Earthly Immortal Realm. Emperor Xu was good at drawing on pictures again.There is a line, which starts with Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty in Nanzhan Province, and ends with Lingshan Mountain on Hezhou, Xiniu. He said: "Brother Taoist will know it at a glance."
Zhen Yuanzi looked up. At first he felt that this route had no characteristics, but suddenly he seemed to think of something, his expression changed drastically, he turned to look at Dixu, and said solemnly: "The road to the sky?"
Dixu nodded with a smile and said: "When the body of Father Pangu died, his head was facing east, now it is Dongsheng Shenzhou, his feet facing west are Xiniu Hezhou, and his spine turned into the pillar that reaches the sky, Mount Buzhou. , the position of its spine on Father God¡¯s body is the road from Chang¡¯an to Lingshan, so this road is called the Road to Heaven. If a pilgrim takes this road, he will have traveled all over the world, and he will gain the greatest amount of merit. , so we have to pass Brother Taoist¡¯s Wuzhuang Temple.¡±
Although Zhen Yuanzi felt uneasy in his heart, he still maintained his strength and said: "So what if they pass by, I don't intend to block their way."
Emperor Xu smiled casually and said: "So what? When Zhunti went to Dachitian to discuss with Brother Laozi, he decided to use the calamities of the scripture seekers as the number of disasters to teach the scriptures, so one scripture is difficult for one. And Buddhism also plans to establish its prestige on this road. To make Buddhism spread better in the East. The only person who can be considered as a great supernatural power on this road is Taoist Brother. Moreover, Taoist Brother really thinks that he is hiding in Wuzhuang Temple now and can escape from disasters by just wandering in Buddhism. ? Can Buddhism and Taoism tolerate Brother Taoist¡¯s behavior?¡±
After hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi was deep in thought, constantly asking himself whether he would allow such a person to exist if he were wandering around like this and the Buddha. He came to the conclusion: The conclusion is that it will not be allowed. Thinking of this, Zhen Yuanzi's face became filled with bitterness, which was comparable to that of the guide in the Western Paradise.
Seeing the bitter look on Zhen Yuanzi's face, Emperor Xu knew that he must have figured out the cause and effect, but it was just too much, so he said goodbye and left. Zhen Yuanzi did not stay, but he looked back and thought about how to decide. Things.
By the way, in Chang'an, there was a drama written by Sakyamuni and directed by Guanyin, which made Li Shimin stunned. It is not that there are discerning people in the court, disciples of great religions, but these people all know that this is God's will and cannot stop it, but they are timid, but in the end they allow it to develop. As a result, Li Shimin became a sworn homage to Tang Monk, allowing him to enjoy the fortune of the Tang Dynasty's human court. In the end, Li Shimin took the lead in sending Tang Monk out of Chang'an.
