"Amitabha, I'm guilty!"
"Big brother, as a member of the Buddhist Sect, how can you kill?”
Ao Lie didn't even turn his head and continued doing what he was doing.
"Who said I'm a Buddhist disciple? Bodhisattva said that Buddhism has a high threshold. I have to escort you to the Western Paradise before I can be officially accepted as a disciple.”
"Even so, an animal is still a life. Buddha is merciful, so why do you have to eat it? This will only increase the evil retribution, why bother? It's good to be a vegetarian. This Penniless Monk likes it very much!”
"Why are there so many rules in a world where the weak eat the strong? You Buddhists are all hypocrites. Aren't the killings committed by the immortals in the sky few? Why don't you go and persuade them?"
Sun Wukong nodded in agreement." That's right. How can humans not eat meat? Just being vegetarian can make a bird fade out!"
Tang Sanzang glared at him." You're my disciple now. I'm warning you not to repeat the precepts again. Otherwise, I'll recite the Golden Hoop Incantation again."”
"You…"
Sun Wukong was so angry that he really wanted to beat this monk to death. He was a bully!
"Little brother, you kept telling me not to break the precepts, so why did you knowingly break the precepts?”
Tang Sanzang was stunned." This Penniless Monk ate only wild fruits. How could I break the precepts?"”
"You don't understand! There were living things on the wild fruit, including the fruit worms in the flesh. It was just that those living things were too small and you couldn't see them!”
Tang Sanzang was shocked." Really?"
"Of course, those lifeforms are called bacteria. They are so small that they can't be seen with the naked eye. If you don't believe me, I can cast a spell and you'll be able to see them.”
Tang Sanzang hesitated for a moment before saying,""Thank you for casting the spell, Big Brother!"
Ao Lie laughed." You asked for it." He raised his hand and cast a small spell similar to a microscope on Tang Sanzang.
"If you take a look now, I guarantee that it will be an eye-opener for you!”
Tang Sanzang took a look. Sure enough, the fruit was covered with all kinds of small animals, like caterpillars. They were indeed living because they could move!
"Oh my god!"
He was so frightened that he quickly threw the fruit away and kept chanting Amitabha.
"What should we do? What should he do? This Penniless Monk has committed a massacre!"
"Drink some water pressure to calm down!"
" There are more bacteria in the water. Take a closer look if you don't believe me!”
Tang Sanzang's hand trembled. He really saw the densely packed small creatures in the water. He was so scared that he did not dare to drink the water!
After successfully teasing him, Ao Lie laughed out loud." Little brother, you don't dare to eat this or drink that. Let me ask you, what will you eat in the future? How do we survive?"
Tang Sanzang thought about it and agreed. If there were lives in the water, wouldn't he have to go on a hunger strike in the future? At this moment, he was extremely envious of those immortals who could abstain from eating.
"That's why I said that you don't have to stick to the Buddhist Sect at all! Just like how big fish ate small fish, small fish ate shrimps, humans ate animals, and demons ate humans. This was the law of nature's development. Existence was the truth. Wouldn't it be treasonous for the Buddhist Sect to forcefully reverse it?”
Tang Sanzang shook his head repeatedly." You're being unreasonable! Buddhism told people to be good. This was great merit, how could it be treason?”
"Good! Then let me ask you, Buddhism pays attention to the emptiness of the four great things and wants to save all living beings, right?”
Tang Sanzang nodded." Buddha is merciful. If everyone abides by it, the world will naturally be harmonious and beautiful.”
Ao Lie shook his head." If that's the case, everyone will believe in Buddhism and follow you guys to achieve nothing. Let's not talk about anything else. What do you think will happen to Jie Se?"”
Tang Sanzang's eyes widened. This consequence…
Sun Wukong answered on his behalf," The consequence is that there is no continuation of life, and it will eventually lead to destruction! In that case, this Buddhist Dharma was really treasonous!”
"This…"
Tang Sanzang's eyes were filled with confusion. What he said made sense. Was Buddhism really wrong?
" Also, if humans don't eat animals, do you know what the consequences will be?" Ao Lie asked.”
"What is it?"
"Just take fish as an example! If humans didn't capture them, they would reproduce in large numbers. As a result, the rivers and lakes wouldn't be able to hold them, and the seas would eventually be filled. Then, the water source would wither, and the entire world would be destroyed!”
Tang Sanzang was dumbfounded. It was actually so terrifying!
"Therefore, it's not a sin for humans to eat animals. It's the will of the heavens. It's a disguised form of protection for this world. It's definitely not killing as you Buddhists say!”
Sun Wukong was also stunned. How could this explanation work? Distorted logic turned into truth?
Tang Sanzang's spirit, essence, and spirit instantly withered. He had already fallen into serious self-doubt. If he was not careful, he might even die!
Ao Lie was startled. Didn't he just say a few words of knowledge that modern people knew? Why did you have such a big reaction? Even his Buddhist heart was about to be extinguished!
"Master? Master?"
No matter how Sun Wukong called out, Tang Sanzang did not respond.
"This is bad! Ao Lie, he's about to die from your words!"
Ao Lie was also anxious. Tang Sanzang was the most important person in the team. No one could kill him!
If he died, the Heavenly Dao would definitely send down heavenly punishment, and he would also die!
What should he do?
