"I have violated the rules of a monk and suffered inhuman torture. But what about Bodhisattva? Who will punish him?"
"Master, do you know what will happen if you wear this tight band?”
"Bodhisattva told me that as long as you encounter danger, when you are in a stalemate with the demons, when you are no match for them, he told me to recite the Golden Hoop Incantation. He said that it can increase your strength!”
"But that will make you wish you were dead. It will make you wish you were dead at the critical moment of your battle with the demons!”
"This is the Bodhisattva who saves all living beings. I really haven't seen how Bodhisattva saves all living beings!”
Ling Ji's actions.
Tang Sanzang's mental state collapsed, and he even began to doubt his own beliefs.
"Well, disciple, I have a way to help you remove the hoop!”
At this time, Sun Wukong said mysteriously.
" Huh?!" Tang Sanzang looked at Sun Wukong in shock." What method?”
Unexpectedly.
Bodhisattva Lingji had said that there was no other way, but his master actually had a way!
"That is to first extract your true spirit and let your body enter reincarnation with the golden hoop. Then, your true spirit will reincarnate and awaken your memories.”
Sun Wukong said lightly.
"Uh…Forget it!"
Tang Sanzang refused decisively. The moment he heard the word True Spirit and Reincarnation, he knew that it was dangerous.
However, he soon realized something.
Why didn't Bodhisattva Lingji mention this method just now? He did not believe that the Buddhist Sect did not even know about this method!
"Looks like I'm more useful alive than dead!”
Tang Sanzang looked up at the sky and sighed." Where's the Buddhist benevolence?”
Hehe, indeed, you're more useful alive than dead. The prosperity of Buddhism still depends on you!
As for the Buddhist Sect's compassion?
How could Buddhism be merciful?
If they were merciful, if all living beings were saved and all living beings became Buddhas, how could they still be high and mighty? How could they still earn the power of faith from their believers?!
However, these words…
Sun Wukong was only thinking about it in his heart. It was not the time to tell Tang Sanzang yet.
"Disciple, maybe you're thinking too much!”
Sun Wukong resisted the urge to tell Tang Sanzang everything and comforted him.
Although Tang Sanzang's belief in the scriptures had been extinguished, his Buddhist heart was still there.
Therefore, Sun Wukong did not intend to say too much. After all, it was better to influence him subtly than to say too much.
"Am I thinking too much? Why don't I think so?"
Tang Sanzang smiled bitterly,
"The bandits from the day before yesterday, Buddha advised them to put down their butcher knives and become Buddhas on the spot. But why do I have to go through 81 difficulties when I sincerely pray to Buddha?!”
"Uh…perhaps, it's just to test if you have a pure buddha heart?？”
Sun Wukong could only say this.
He couldn't tell Tang Sanzang directly.
The so-called eighty-one difficulties were just for the Buddhist Sect to divide the merit and luck of the Journey to the West tribulation. It had nothing to do with whether you became a Buddha or not, right?？
"Sincerity? This disciple has diligently cultivated Buddhism for half a lifetime, accompanying the Buddha body every day. Could it be that he can't compare to those bandits who have just put down their butcher knives?？!”
Tang Sanzang said sadly.
"Then disciple, what do you plan to do?”Sun Wukong looked at Tang Sanzang in surprise and asked.
"I want to go to the Northern Heaven and personally ask Buddha Tathagata about that day!”
Tang Sanzang looked to the north and said firmly.
"Alright then…"
Sun Wukong looked at Tang Sanzang speechlessly. He had ambition and courage, but he was brainless!
A mortal dared to question Buddha? As expected, he was tired of living.
Moreover, even if Tang Sanzang did so, it would not affect Buddhism at all.
They had still managed to get through the journey of obtaining the scriptures and obtained the luck and merit. At worst, they would end up in the Western Heaven and the Buddhist Sect would imprison Tang Sanzang!
To the outside world, it might be better to say that Tang Sanzang had become a Buddha on the spot!
"Good disciple, you're really ambitious. Then I'll accompany you on this trip!”
Verbally, Sun Wukong still encouraged him. After all, this was an important change for Tang Sanzang!
"But disciple, I have a small request for you!”
He thought about it.
Sun Wukong continued," You should observe carefully along the way. Did Buddha really save all living beings?”
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.
"Alright, I understand!" In the end, Tang Sanzang nodded.
"But I have a condition!"
Sun Wukong was a little confused and looked at Tang Sanzang in confusion. What condition?
"If I want to eat meat along the way, you must get it for me!”
Tang Sanzang said seriously.
“？？？”
Sun Wukong was really stunned this time. He really did not expect Tang Sanzang to make such a strange request.
Are you serious?
You've always been under the surveillance of the Buddhist Sect. They might not notice if you occasionally eat two or three times, but if you really do this every day, you'll be exposed sooner or later!
Could it be that I have to rely on my Spell Sect to hide the fact that you eat meat?
However, Tang Sanzang had broken the precepts, and he also had the system reward. Thinking about it, it was quite cost-effective.
"That'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 Ling Ji returned to the Tempest Temple and explained everything, he went into hiding.
She was feeling bitter now. She didn't want to talk anymore and didn't want to accept any missions.
"The Sage has decreed that the Journey to the West…Pah, there will be a change in the Northern Journey. 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!”
At this moment, Tathagata slowly opened his eyes and announced his 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's prosperity will be just around the corner?？？”
"However, what is this variable? A human? A demon? Or is it a magic treasure?"
“……”
After Tathagata spoke.
The Buddhas began to discuss 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 evolved by the Great Dao. Even if a Saint comes personally, they won't be able to deduce what the variable is!”
"At present, what we know is that the Three Sages of the East have already grasped the variable and are using it to interfere with the Northern Heaven's Buddhist scriptures!”
When Bodhisattvas Ling Ji and Guan Yin, who were sitting in the corner, heard this, they could finally hold their heads high.
Did you see that?
Tang Sanzang's death had nothing to do with them. It was all the work of the Three Sages of the East and the variables!
