Chapter 1334 Jin Chanzi, why don’t you kneel in front of the Buddha!


    After the banquet.


    ??Qin Yao rejected Emperor Taizong''s proposal to entrust Yanta Temple to himself and slowly walked out of the palace with his disciples.


    "Master, we have traveled a long way back to Chang''an. Can we stay here for a few more days and then return to Lingshan to receive the title?" Sun Wukong suddenly asked when he came to the crowded street.


    Qin Yao understood clearly and asked: "You still want to find out the truth about the theft of the Dragon Slaying Sword, right?"


    ?Sun Wukong nodded silently: "My old grandson has a serious shortcoming. He is very curious and wants to take care of things when he encounters them."


    Qin Yao turned to look at Xiao Bailong: "Ao Lie, are you willing to satisfy Wukong''s curiosity?"


    ?Xiao Bailong smiled bitterly: "You really guessed it."


    Qin Yao said: "We just came here yesterday, and the dragon-slaying sword was stolen last night. You happen to be a real dragon. Is this hard to guess?"


    ??The little white dragon breathed out gently, transformed into a white dragon on the street, and said: "Master, please get on my back, I will take you somewhere."


    As he spoke, he respectfully placed his head at Qin Yao''s feet.


    Qin Yao stepped forward and stepped on the dragon''s head to his back: "Okay, let''s go."


    ?Zhu Bajie blinked and said hurriedly: "Xiao Bailong, you can also give me a ride."


    ded by


    ??Little White Dragon flew into the sky while countless people were stunned, leaving only rejection and reasons: "You are as fat as a pig, too heavy."


    Zhu Bajie: “…”


    What do you mean I''m fat and like a pig?


    I’m just a pig, okay? !


    At this moment, two sneers suddenly came from beside him. Zhu Bajie turned around quickly, only to see Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing both expressionless.


    “Why are you laughing?” Zhu Bajie frowned.


    “Are we laughing?” Sun Wukong asked Sha Wujing beside him.


    Sha Wujing shook his head: "You''re not smiling!"


    ?Sun Wukong then looked at Zhu Bajie: "Second Junior Brother, you heard wrong, we didn''t laugh."


    ?Zhu Bajie didn’t dare to show his teeth to Brother Monkey, so he complained to Sha Wujing: “You old Sha, you’ve learned bad things now.”


    ?Sun Wukong flew into the sky and said: "Okay, okay, hurry up and follow. Don''t lose me again."


    Not long after, the three of them followed Bai Long to the Jinghe River. After putting down his master, he transformed into a human form again, summoned a sword with a flip of his hand, and inserted it into the beach with the scabbard.


    "Little White Dragon, why did you steal this sword so well? Do you know that if Master hadn''t helped you out in front of King Tang, once this matter broke out, there would be disaster." After landing, Sun Wukong asked in a solemn voice.


    Facing the sea, Xiao Bailong fell to his knees with a thud, and tears quickly flowed out of his eyes: "The Dragon King of Jinghe killed with this sword was my uncle... He died for me!"


    ?Sun Wukong immediately understood what was going on and asked, "Is there something hidden in it?"


    Xiao Bailong nodded silently: "It all started before Master started his journey to the west. At that time, I was still the third prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace, but because I was a concubine, even though I had amazing talents and a very fast advancement, I had always been in the West Sea Dragon Palace. Not taken seriously, often laughed at and bullied.


    Among them, Wu Ji, the son of Wude Xingjun, was included.


    ?Once, I was laughed at by his leader, so I couldn''t help but beat him. This beating caused a disaster.


    Afterwards, Wude Xingjun came to the Dragon Palace to cause trouble for me. My father did not dare to offend him, so he prepared to hand me over to him and let him deal with me.


    ?I couldn''t get any more angry, so I ran away unexpectedly and took refuge in the Jinghe Dragon Palace.


    ??After my uncle heard about what happened to me, he used all his connections to find an official position for me, so that Mr. Wude Xing could not arrest me and imprison me.


    Because of this, Wude Xingjun had a grudge against my uncle, the Jinghe Dragon King, and together with my uncle''s subordinate, the Weihe Dragon King, they set up a scheme to make the Jade Emperor unjustly kill my uncle! "


    “What situation are they setting up?”


    ?Sun Wukong’s soul of justice seemed to be burning, and he asked in a deep voice.


    Little White Dragon burst into tears: "At that time, there was a very powerful hexagram master named Yuan Shoucheng in Chang''an City. The Dragon King of Weihe River deliberately went to provoke him and bet on the timing and amount of rain in Chang''an City.


    Soon afterwards, after my uncle received the imperial edict from heaven, the Dragon King of the Weihe River made a special appearance and wanted to make clouds and rain on my uncle''s behalf. My uncle was unwilling to do so, but Wuji came to me and clamored for it at that time, so he had no choice but to agree.


    ?So, the Dragon King of the Weihe River deliberately messed up the timing of the rain and changed the amount of rain. As a result, my uncle took full responsibility and was beheaded on the street by Wei Zheng. "


    “What an arrogant approach, what a cruel calculation, Xiao Bailong, why didn’t you tell me before?” Sun Wukong asked.


    Little Bailong sighed: "I wanted to wait until I was granted the title to report it to the Buddha and ask him for justice, but after I felt my uncle''s aura on the Dragon-Slaying Sword yesterday, I couldn''t control it."


    Sun Wukong exhaled a long breath and said, "Follow me, and I will take you to Heaven to explain this matter to the Jade Emperor."


    “I can’t tell clearly.” Qin Yao said in a solemn voice.


    Sun Wukong looked puzzled: "From what Xiao Bailong told me, this matter is not complicated, so how can I not explain it clearly?"


    "Wukong, just because it''s not complicated, doesn''t mean it''s easy to handle." Qin Yao said earnestly: "You have ignored one of the most critical elements!"


    In the original work, Sun Wukong went to heaven to teach the little white dragon, but what was the result?


    ??He was scolded by the Jade Emperor in front of the gods. He originally wanted to cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace again, but he found that it was different from what it was more than five hundred years ago. A group of nameless heavenly soldiers held him back for a long time.


    In the end, it was Nezha who was worried that Sun Wukong would suffer a loss and forcibly took him away. This prevented the drama of the Heavenly Court judging Sun Wukong, but it also worsened the relationship with the Heavenly Court.


    ??Qin Yao knew this outcome, so how could he let Sun Wukong take risks in the Heavenly Palace?


    "What element? You mean Lord Wudexing?"


    ?Sun Wukong waved his hand and said confidently: "Others are afraid of him, but I am not afraid of him."


    "It''s not Wude Xingjun, but the Jade Emperor''s face. As the co-owner of the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor will not admit that he has made mistakes. If you go and say that he unjustly killed the Jinghe Dragon King, even if it is true, he will not Admit it and I will just tell you nonsense and scold you."


    ?Sun Wukong hummed and said: "So what, the worst I can do is cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace again."


    Qin Yao shook his head and said: "You are still the same person you were five hundred years ago, but the Heavenly Palace is no longer the same as the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. With your intelligence, can you still see clearly?"


    ?Sun Wukong was silent.


    In fact, on the journey to the west, he saw clearly that the trouble he made in the Heavenly Palace must have been a charade.


    Otherwise, if the gods at the time took out the treasures that their masters and disciples encountered on their journey to the west, how could they have allowed him to be arrogant for so long?


    ?For example, purple gold gourds, golden bowls, yin and yang two-gas bottles, human race bags, banana fans, diamond rings, etc.


    The treasures that can defeat him can''t be counted on one hand...


    Looking at Sun Wukong who fell into silence, Xiao Bailong said seriously: "Elder brother, what the master said makes sense. It is better to go to the Western Heaven and ask the Buddha to uphold justice."


    Sun Wukong nodded silently: "Okay, let''s go now. Even if we don''t get the merit of traveling to the west, I will seek justice for you!"


    ??Qin Yao sighed. Only after being immersed in the scene can he appreciate the cruelty of the sequel''s plot.


    ??In the mythical world where the weak eat the strong, how can there be any justice?


    In other words, the fist is justice.


    ?Whoever has a big fist is fair.


    In the original work, the Westbound Group first reported this matter to the Buddha, hoping that the compassionate Buddha in their hearts would stand up and uphold justice. But the result was that the Buddha didn''t care at all, and there was no such thing as acting impartially. Instead, he allowed Kassapa and Ananda to deliberately anger Sun Wukong, and blamed him for being ignorant.


    Then he took matters into his own hands, seriously injuring the monkey, snatching away his golden cudgel, and driving him away...


    ?This is too cruel for the masters and disciples who regard the Tathagata as a guiding light and the Western Heaven as a pure land.


    “Master, why are you sighing? But what’s wrong with what I said?” At this time, Sun Wukong asked doubtfully.


    ??Qin Yao thought for a moment and said slowly: "Wukong, let''s make a bet between master and disciple?"


    Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes and asked, "What bet?"


    “I bet Tathagata Buddha will not care about this matter.” Qin Yao said.


    Sun Wukong was stunned, and then shook his head: "Although Tathagata and I have old grudges, I have to admit that he does things fairly and everyone knows it. How can he stand idly by when faced with such injustice?"


    Qin Yao said: "I won''t explain too much to you, just tell me whether you dare to gamble or not?"


    At this moment, Sun Wukong still had deep expectations for Tathagata, and immediately said: "Why don''t you dare? What''s the bet?"


    Qin Yao said: "If I win, Tathagata Buddha really doesn''t care about this matter. Don''t talk back to him, so as not to intensify conflicts and make enemies everywhere. Regarding the Dragon King of Jinghe River, we will make a careful calculation after we are granted the title."


    Seeing the certainty of what he said, Sun Wukong''s heart sank slightly, but he still asked stubbornly: "What if the master loses?"


    Qin Yao thought for a while and said, "If I lose, how about I obey your advice in the future?"


    "good!"


    ?Sun Wukong liked this bet very much, and he quickly agreed. He then summoned a somersault cloud and said, "Go on my somersault cloud. I can''t wait to know the result."


    ?Now that the pilgrimage for scriptures has ended, Qin Yao, the Tang monk, naturally no longer has to be restricted by the scriptures and is the first to climb the golden clouds.


    Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing followed closely behind. Xiao Bailong put away his dragon-slaying sword and finally jumped onto the clouds with Sun Wukong.


    It was one hundred and eighty thousand miles from the Tang Dynasty to Lingshan. It happened that Sun Wukong''s somersault cloud was also one hundred and eighty thousand miles away. Therefore, in a moment, this fairy cloud landed in front of the Great Thunder Sound Temple in the Paradise of Paradise. I saw the enlightenment in the temple. Arhats filled the garden everywhere, and there were faint chants of Buddhas coming from the depths of the temple.


    “The holy monk came so quickly.”


    When they entered the temple, a Jiedi greeted them with a smile.


    Qin Yao also smiled at him: "It''s all thanks to Wukong''s magical power, and I can travel thousands of miles in a blink of an eye. I dare to ask the venerable, what''s going on with this chant?"


    The Jiedhi explained: "Today I, Buddha Tathagata, am giving a lecture. Eight Bodhisattvas, four Vajras, five hundred Arhats, three thousand Jiedhis, and countless bhikkhus are gathered in the Great Thunder Sound Temple. But you are here just in time."


    "Thank you, Your Majesty. Let''s go to meet Buddha Tathagata first." Qin Yao thanked him seriously.


    “Holy monk, please go.” The monk said with a smile on his face.


    ??Qin Yao then led his four disciples all the way to the main hall, where they listened to the wonderful teachings and remained silent.


    Inside the treasure hall.


    ??The Tathagata, who has a fat head, big ears, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and is wearing a yellow monk''s robe, is sitting on a golden lotus. Under him are the great powers of Buddhism that he just revealed to Qin Yao. They all show the Buddha''s light and have an extraordinary bearing.


    Suddenly, Tathagata stopped teaching, raised his eyes to look out the door, and said with a smile: "You guys came faster than I thought."


    “Meet the Buddha.” Qin Yao bowed and saluted.


    ?Seeing that he did not kneel down, several disciples just bowed, but this scene annoyed Ananda and Kasyapa who were accompanying the Buddha...


    "Jinchanzi, when you come to collect the scriptures, you kneel down as soon as you enter the door. Have you lost your sense of awe after fetching the scriptures?" Ananda asked directly.


    Chin Yao: “…”


    Why is it that after coming to this world, there are always people asking him to kneel down?


    Wei Zheng asked him to kneel down, and the monk also asked him to kneel down.


    As long as he is weak, he will be tamed into servility.


    A very funny thing.


    In the Buddhist world, which advocates equality for all, there is actually a strict hierarchy and even serious servility.


    The guy who spoke was almost the same as the treacherous **** beside the monarch.


    After a moment, Qin Yao raised his head to look at Tathagata, only to find that the other person was just watching this scene quietly. He was not even as happy as Emperor Taizong, who had to watch him kneel down in front of him to be happy.


    "Jin Chanzi, what are you talking about? Why don''t you kneel down quickly!"


    ?During his silence, Ananda suddenly shouted loudly, with a hint of power in his voice, which shook the whole temple and attracted countless gazes.


    Qin Yao smiled and said, "Who are you talking to?"


    ?Ananda was stunned and didn''t react for a while.


    What is this word?


    I’m all angry, but you don’t know who you’re angry at?


    "Of course he is talking to you. Can''t you see that he is asking questions to you?" Kasyapa said.


    Qin Yao said calmly: "I can see it, but the problem is that I am not Jin Chanzi. I am a poor monk, Xuanzang, or Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty."


    Kasyapa: “…”


    The Tathagata was surprised, but he still did not speak and allowed Ananda Kassapa to continue to attack.


    With his connivance, Ananda became even more unscrupulous and shouted softly: "You are forgetting your ancestors."


    Qin Yao said calmly: "But I have no memory of my previous life."


    Kassapa said: "Even if you don''t agree that you are a golden cicada, even if you are Tang Xuanzang, you should kneel down when you see my Buddha, right?"


    Qin Yao said: "I read the Chang Agama Sutra. There is a text in the Sutra. At that time, there were no men and women, no superiors or inferiors, no superiors and no different names. They all lived together in the world, so they were named all living beings. This sutra was passed down from the West."


    Ananda Kassapa: “…”


    This involves a very interesting point.


    ?Equality of all living beings is one of the basic concepts of Buddhism. In the Buddhist stories, the stories of cutting meat and feeding it to eagles, princes feeding tigers, and corpses borrowing doves all promote this doctrine.


    Logically speaking, the so-called Buddha, Bodhisattva, and Arhat are only the level of spiritual practice, not the level of status.


    But in the world of mythology, the level of spiritual practice becomes the level of status.


    Let alone Ananda and Kassapa, not even the Tathagata himself could explain this.


    After all, the plot characters themselves are very difficult... no, it should be said that it is basically impossible to escape from the plot structure.


    So, the whole palace was silent!
