While Luo Duo was talking to Chu Huan, thousands of people in the distance, including Pi Liuli, had already stopped chanting. Everyone had their hands clasped together and looked pious without saying a word.
"Two roads?"
"The first way is naturally for us to clean up the door." Luo Duo said seriously: "With the Dragon King as the leader, as long as someone among the eight tribes violates the three precepts, his body will be destroyed no matter where he escapes to the ends of the earth. The Eight Tribes are the true guardians of the Dharma given to the world by Peacock King Bodhisattva. If they violate the three precepts, they have abandoned their duty to protect the Dharma, and their physical bodies will be destroyed."
Chu Huan felt a little cold in his heart, thinking to himself that now that he has become the Dragon King, will he have to abide by the three precepts?
Thinking that he is not only the Dragon King of the Heart Sect, but also the King of Chu in the northwest, commanding a mighty army to dominate the world, how can he escape the murderous karma? As for the obscenity precept, if I abide by it, is it possible that my many family members will be left widowed?
Thinking of this, Chu Huan was a little surprised, and thought to himself why Luo Duo said this to him in front of the Six Paths Tower?
Luo Duo was so shrewd, he already smiled and said: "Dragon King, don't worry, you are in a special situation, and more importantly, although you have inherited the name of Naga, the Buddha Mother has not ordained you, and the dragon card has not been given to you. Give it to you, so strictly speaking, you are not yet a true member of the eight tribes of the Heart Sect. Only after the Buddha Mother has ordained you and given the Dragon Card, you are the real Dragon King. But since the previous Dragon Kings have chosen you, you What is missing is nothing more than a ritual, and no one else is qualified to inherit the position of Dragon King except you."
Chu Huan smiled bitterly and said: "I am also confused. As for this Dragon King, I am just about to discuss it with my eldest brother to see if I can choose another one!"
"Nonsense!" Luo Duo frowned and said in a deep voice: "Are you afraid that the Dharma Protector of the Heart Sect is buying vegetables at the market and can bargain? This is the law of the Heart Sect that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and there cannot be any sloppiness. When we welcome back the Buddha Mother, You should have Mother Buddha take the ordination for you, and it will not be too late to talk about what happens later."
Chu Huan was helpless and asked: "Besides, what other punishments are there for the Eight Tribes who violate the Three Precepts?"
Luo Duo looked at the Six Paths Pagoda and said slowly: "That's Vinaya. If you violate the three precepts but have no regrets, you can only destroy your body. But if you can ask for punishment and have regrets, you can Send him to Vinaya, and he will never be born again in this life." Staring at the Six Paths Pagoda, he said: "As far as I know, after the Six Paths Pagoda was built, in the hundreds of years, only one person was sent to Vinaya. Naye practiced meditation for thirteen years and passed away here."
Chu Huan couldn't help but look at the Six Paths Pagoda again, and saw that the surface of the Six Paths Pagoda was like ore, with pits and spots, which was very different from ordinary stones.
"Does the Dragon King know what this Six Paths Tower is built of?" Luo Duo walked over slowly, followed by Chu Huan, and walked to the side of the Six Paths Tower. Under the firelight, the surface of the stone actually shone with a trace of light. He touched it with his hand, took a closer look, and then said with some surprise: "This is a diamond!"
"Diamond?" Luo Duo was stunned, as if he had never heard of the name diamond, and asked, "Has the Dragon King seen the Jue Stone?"
Chu Huan happened to have seen diamond. When he touched it, he knew that it was an extremely hard diamond.
"Is this a Jue Stone?" Chu Huan was a little confused, but immediately knew that this kind of stone did not have the name diamond at this time, but it was called a Jue Stone by the people here. "I have seen it before, but when I saw it It is extremely hard, like a diamond, so it is called diamond.¡±
"I see." Luo Duo understood, "Your name is better than Jue Shi. Jue Stone is very rare. No matter what tools are used, it cannot be cut open. Even with my internal strength, it cannot be destroyed. Jue Stone If the door of the six-path pagoda built of stone is not opened, it is impossible to enter it anyway, and the sinners locked in Vinaya will never be able to escape."
Chu Huan nodded slightly. He believed this very much. He looked up and down, but suddenly found that the six-way tower was shaped like a column, but there was no tower door. He was surprised and said: "The ashes of the ancestors are all in it, but I didn't see the tower door."
"You come with me!" Luo Duo led Chu Huan around half a circle, stopped and raised his finger to point. Only then did Chu Huan see that there were talismans like petals on the wall, which were larger than the ones on the wall. It is slightly concave, but the inside of the talisman is as smooth as a mirror, which is very different from the mottled wall on the side.
There are four petals in total, which are extremely regular.
"This is the mechanism that opens the Six Paths Pagoda." Luo Duo said solemnly: "As long as the Buddha card is placed in it, the door of the tower can be opened."
"Buddha amulet?"
Luo Duo had already taken something from his arms. Chu Huan saw that the thing was pure white, and looked like a sign made of silver. Looking at the shape of the sign, he was startled. It turned out that the sign wasThe shape of the child is almost exactly the same as the outline of the petals on the wall.
Seeing the curious look on Chu Huan's face, Luo Duo handed the silver medal to Chu Huan. Chu Huan hesitated, but still reached out to take it. After taking it, he knew that his guess was wrong. Although the medal looked like it was made of silver, But the weight in the hand is not heavy, and it is smooth and moist. It looks like silver, but when touched in the hand, it is like crystal and moist jade.
There is a carving on the front of the sign, which shows a heavenly king in armor, holding a pipa. Chu Huan recognized it at a glance. This is the carving of King Dhrita, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Buddhism.
Seeing this Buddhist amulet, Chu Huan immediately remembered that he had seen the Buddhist amulets of the Xin Sect disciples before. Whether it was the Arhat amulet of the Sixteen Arhats or the Buddhist amulets of the Eight Tribes, Chu Huan had seen them all before. Compared with the Arhats, The Buddha cards in the hands of Mahulaka and King Yaksha are obviously more high-end. Now that we see the Buddha cards of the Heavenly King, they are much more exquisite than the Buddha cards of King Yaksha. From this, we can also see that the Heavenly God is in the eight tribes. status among them.
The other side of the sign was written in Sanskrit. Chu Huan didn¡¯t know Sanskrit, so naturally he couldn¡¯t understand it, but he could also guess that it was proof of the identity of King Dhrita Dhrita.
After returning the Heavenly King Buddha Amulet to Luo Duo, Chu Huan asked: "There are four places here. Do we need four Buddha Amulets?"
Luo Duo said: "Yes, the importance of the Six Paths Pagoda is not under the Buddha Hall, so not only does no one dare to approach it easily, but also it cannot be opened without the four Buddha cards."
Chu Huan immediately thought of something and asked: "Is it possible that the four Buddha amulets refer to the Buddha amulets of the Four Heavenly Kings?"
"If the Buddha cards of the four heavenly kings are gathered together, they can naturally open the pagoda door." Luo Duo said solemnly: "However, Bishamon betrayed the sect and ran away, and the Buddha cards of the Tawen king were in his hands. Now there are only three left. A piece of Buddha amulet of the King of Heaven.¡±
Chu Huan was astonished and said: "In that case, how can this pagoda door be opened without a Buddhist amulet?"
Luo Duo stared at Chu Huan and said, "Then I can only rely on you, Dragon King!"
"Me?" Chu Huan was even more astonished, "What can I do? I don't have the Heavenly King Buddha Amulet in my hand!"
Luo Duo looked solemn and said: "The ancestors have actually been wary of the current situation for a long time. No one can guarantee that when the Holy Light appears, the four heavenly kings will gather here, so they took precautions and used the Dragon King As a substitute." He raised his finger and pointed at the petal sigil on the wall, "The four petals represent the four heavenly kings. The Buddha cards of the four heavenly kings have their own correspondences. If they are placed incorrectly, the pagoda door cannot be opened, just like in my hand. This Buddha amulet is located directly above. If it is placed anywhere else, it will be of no use."
Chu Huan secretly thought that the Six Paths Pagoda was the heart of the sect, and it was reasonable for them to be so cautious.
"Only the Dragon King's Dragon Tablet can be placed anywhere in place of the four Heavenly King Tablets." Luo Duo said: "The Duowen Tianwang Buddha Tablet that is missing today can be replaced by your Dragon King's Dragon Tablet!"
"Me? Dragon tablet?" Chu Huan was startled for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother, don't you know that when the ghost master passed on the name of Naga to me, he did not hand the dragon tablet into my hands, even if the dragon tablet can Instead of the Heavenly King Card, I don¡¯t have the Dragon Card in my hand, so even if I want to help you, I can¡¯t do enough!¡±
Luo Duo was not in a hurry, but explained: "The eight tribes and the sixteen Arhats all have Buddha amulets with them. It is the honor given by the Mother Buddha. If the Buddha amulet is in hand, it belongs to them and will be passed down to the next generation. An important ceremony is that under the auspices of the Buddha's mother, the predecessor will pass on the Buddha amulets." Looking at the petal talisman, he said: "To open the pagoda, you need four Buddha amulets, but the Buddha amulets cannot be opened by hand. People, the Xin Sect has strict precepts, and the most taboo is the chaos of the eight tribes. Each of the eight tribes performs their own duties, and there must be no mistakes. Today when I opened the pagoda door, Bi Liuli and Bi Liu Bocha have agreed that we are willing to use our own The Buddha amulet, but the missing piece requires your consent to complete the ceremony of opening the pagoda door."
Chu Huan frowned and said, "How do you say this?"
"The Six Paths Pagoda is not a trivial matter. It cannot be opened on a whim. Even when it must be opened, all four heavenly kings must agree. But if one person objects, no matter what the reason is, the Six Paths Pagoda cannot be opened." Luo Duo said seriously: "This time the Holy Light appears. According to past practice, the Four Heavenly Kings and even the Dragon King naturally have no objection. However, according to the regulations, everyone still needs to agree. Now that the three of us have agreed to open the Six Paths Pagoda, the missing King of Duowen The Buddha card is replaced by the dragon card from your dragon department, so unless you allow the dragon card to be used, the Six Paths Pagoda still cannot be opened."
Only then did Chu Huan realize that the rules of the Xin Sect were really very strict, but since such rules were set up, there must be a reason. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Brother, you just said that although I am indebted to Master Gui He was given the name of Naga, but he did not take the precepts, and the dragonHe doesn¡¯t have the cards in his hand, and he can¡¯t be considered the real Dragon King even now! "
Luo Duo said with a smile: "So I have two major things to do when I come here tonight. The first thing is to open the Six Paths Pagoda to welcome the ashes of our ancestors, and the other thing is for me to preside over the ceremony and give you the dragon tablet." !¡±
