You guessed right. You are indeed more useful alive than dead. The Buddhist Dharma still depends on you to spread eastward!
As for the Buddhist Sect's compassion?
Haha! How could he be merciful!
If they were merciful, how could they earn the power of faith from their believers?
However, Sun Wukong only thought about these words in his heart. It was not the time to tell Tang Sanzang yet.
"Master, maybe you're just thinking too much!”
Sun Wukong resisted the urge to tell the truth to the Tripitaka and consoled him.
Although Tang Sanzang was now moved by Buddha's heart, it was only Buddha's heart. It was better to change him imperceptibly by saying too much.
"Are you thinking too much? Why don't I think so?" Tang Sanzang said with a bitter expression,"Yesterday, I advised those bandits to put down their butcher knives and become Buddhas on the spot. But why did I have to go through 81 difficulties to pray to Buddha?!"”
"Uh.................................................................................................................................................................... Perhaps, it was to test whether Master was sincere!”
Sun Wukong had no choice but to tell Sanzang this. He couldn't tell him directly that the so-called eighty-one difficulties were just Buddhist sects wanting to divide the merits of the Journey to the West. It had nothing to do with whether one became a Buddha or not!
And even if he became a Buddha in the end, he would only be an empty shell, ranking at the bottom of the list of Buddhas.
"Sincerity? I've cultivated Buddhism for half my life. Could it be that I can't compare to those mountain bandits who put down their butcher knives?”
Tang Sanzang's tone was full of disdain.
"Master, what do you plan to do?”Sun Wukong asked in surprise.
"I want to go to the western paradise to find Buddha Tathagata and ask him!”
Tang Sanzang looked to the west and said firmly.
"Uh..."
Sun Wukong looked at Tang Sanzang speechlessly. He had ambition and courage, but he was brainless!
A mortal questioning Buddha? As expected, he was tired of living.
Moreover, what Tang Sanzang did had no effect on Buddhism at all. The journey to the Western Paradise was still carried out. At most, Tang Sanzang would be imprisoned and someone else would be able to preach Buddhism!
If they told the outside world that Tang Sanzang had become a Buddha, the effect might be even better!
"Master, if you have ambition, I will accompany you for this trip!"”Sun Wukong encouraged.
He had to follow this ATM closely so that he could continue to farm karma points.
"But Master, I have a small suggestion for you!”Sun Wukong continued,"You can observe carefully along the way. Do all living beings really need to be crossed?"”
Tang Sanzang instantly turned around and looked at Sun Wukong in shock.
Sun Wukong didn't dodge. He looked at Tang Sanzang with an indescribable meaning.
"Sure!" Tang Sanzang finally nodded. As for why, he himself did not know.
"However, I have a condition!”
Sun Wukong was a little confused. He looked at Tang Sanzang in doubt.
"If I want to eat meat along the way, you must get it for me!”
Tang Sanzang said seriously.
"Pfff ~"
Sun Wukong was really dumbfounded this time. He really didn't expect Tang Sanzang to make such a strange request.
But big brother, are you serious? You've always been under the surveillance of the Buddha Sect. Occasionally, they won't notice you two or three times, but if you really do this every day, you'll be exposed sooner or later!
Could it be that he had been relying on the Heaven Sealing Array to hide the fact that he was eating meat from you? How can you be so shameless!
However, Tang Sanzang had broken the precepts, so he would also get some karma points. It was quite worth it.
"It's possible, but we need to plan it carefully!”
The corner of Sun Wukong's mouth twitched as he began to plot with Tang Sanzang.
......
After Guan Yin returned to the Great Thunderclap Monastery and explained the situation, she shrank into a ball.
She felt bitter and didn't want to talk.
"The Sage has decreed that there will be a change in the Journey to the West. I hope that we can discover the change as soon as possible. If we can make use of it, the rise of Buddhism will be unstoppable!”
Tathagata opened his eyes and announced the order.
"No wonder Tang Sanzang, who should have been fine, died one after another!”
"So there's a variable!”
"Doesn't that mean that as long as we find a variable, our Buddhist Sect will prosper soon?”
"However, what is this variable? A human? A demon? Or something else?"
......
After Tathagata spoke, the Buddhas discussed animatedly. They were mainly curious about what the variable was. In the end, they could not help but look at Tathagata, hoping to get an answer from him.
Tathagata shook his head and explained,"This variable is the evolution of the Great Dao. Even a Saint can't deduce what the variable is!”
"What we know now is that the Three Sages of the East have already grasped the variable and used it to interfere with the Western Buddhist Scriptures!”
Upon hearing this, Guan Yin, who had shrunk back, could finally hold her head high and chest out.
Did you see that? It had nothing to do with her. It was all because of the Eastern Sage and the variable!
"Buddha, what can we do?”
Manjushri asked.
"We have to ensure that the calamity to the west is normal in advance. We can't let anything happen again!”Rulai instructed in a deep voice,"At the same time, you have to pay attention to where the variables are. Once you discover them, take them down immediately. The variables must be used by our Buddhist Sect!”
"We will obey the Buddha's will!"
The Buddhas hurriedly accepted the order. The prosperity of the Buddhist Sect was beneficial to them.
"What will be the next calamity for Tang Sanzang?”
"Buddha, the next difficulty is the Agonizing Eagle Stream!”Guan Yin Bodhisattva stood out and said.
Tathagata nodded and said,"Immediately go to the Agonizing Eagle Stream with the Five Directions Revealing Truth to confirm the situation of the little white dragon!"”
With the change in Journey to the West, it was hard to guarantee that the little white dragon that had been arranged would also have some problems.
Moreover, the little white dragon was also an important chess piece of the Journey to the West team. Nothing could go wrong.
