Chapter 153 Forming the Alliance of Mythologists
Wukong recalled his past interaction with the Jade Emperor and was shocked to find a fact: he had never seen the Jade Emperor take action.
That year, the big fuss in the Heavenly Palace made the earth upside down. The gods and Buddhas all over the heavens came out to capture themselves one after another. I remember that the Taishang Laojun took action, Guanyin Bodhisattva came out, the father and son of the stupa Li Tianwang took action, Erlang Shen Yang Jian took action, and in the end, even the Buddha Tathagata took action...
But during the whole process, the Jade Emperor never made a move and never showed any magical powers. He either made the star god stop him or sent someone to the West to invite the Buddha. Based on this impression and the easy-to-talk posture he later made him ignore his true strength. At this time, when he heard Wang Dong ask and carefully deduce it, he couldn't help feeling complicated.
"When the Buddha mentioned this, he said that the Jade Emperor had been practicing since childhood and had experienced 1,750 kalpas, and each kalpa was 129,600 years before he had obtained this Wuji Great Way. I didn't care at that time, but now I think about it, it's really incredible."
Sun Wukong looked at the magnificent Lingxiao Hall, his tone was thoughtful. It might be that the Buddha mentioned this matter specifically back then, which may have a deeper meaning.
Wang Dong said: "It is reasonable to say that the Jade Emperor ruled the three realms and retained a sense of mystery. However, looking at the scene of the Heavenly Court now, it is obvious that he has experienced a great war, but according to my estimate, the Jade Emperor may not have taken action, otherwise Wu Tian would not have captured the gods of the Heavenly Court so easily."
Sun Wukong heard Wang Dong's implicit sound, remained silent, and entered the hall with Wang Dong for investigation, but indeed no figure was found.
"There is something strange everywhere in this matter. I still have to go to Lingshan in person to meet the Buddha." Sun Wukong thought for a while and made a decision.
Wang Dong did not stop him. After all, the fact that the Buddha was expelled and the Jade Emperor was captured was too horrifying. With Wukong's personality, he must confirm it himself.
As for whether Wutian would be unfavorable to him, Wang Dong was not worried. In the three realms, only Sun Wukong could find the reincarnated spiritual child of Tathagata Buddha, and only Sun Wukong could find seventeen relics.
Therefore, Wutian will not only not hurt Sun Wukong, but will also try every means to win him over.
In fact, Wang Dong felt that no one in the three realms could really kill Sun Wukong. When he first learned the art, Bodhi Patriarch might be able to scatter his cramps, skin his bones, and ashes, and demote his soul to Jiuyou.
Now, Sun Wukong has been tempered by the Taoist ancestor and also granted the title of Buddha. He is the leader of both Buddhism and Taoism, and has jumped out of the five elements and is not in the three realms, and no one can easily kill him.
"Brother Wang, do you want to go to Lingshan with me, or go back to Huaguoshan first?"
Sun Wukong asked Wang Dong.
Wang Dong said: "If it is convenient, I would like to go to Lingshan to open my eyes."
“What’s the inconvenience?”
Sun Wukong said, calling somersault cloud and took Wang Dong to Lingshan.
A somersault cloud was 108,000 miles away, and the two of them quickly rushed from heaven to Lingshan. From a distance, Lingshan was shining with golden light, auspicious clouds were still the Pure Land of the Saha world, so how could there be any demonic energy?
Sun Wukong descended from somersault cloud and went up the mountain side by side with Wang Dong. After a while, he reached the top of the mountain, but saw the ancient temple of Leiyin:
The head is the man who is marching at the sky, the roots are connected to the Sumeru. The immortal ape picks peaches, the white crane lies in the pine trees, the colorful phoenixes are paired with green phoenixes. The pagoda is visible, and the fragrance of flowers in the bowl is fragrant.
It is worthy of being a great Dharma Hall that will never be damaged by disasters, and it is worthy of being a glazed earth far away from the world.
Soon we arrived outside the gate of Leiyin Temple, and the four great Vajras caught the two of them outside.
"Disciple Sun Wukong, come to pay homage to the Buddha. Please ask the four of you to inform us."
A Vajra came in and reported that the mountain gate was reported to the second gate, and the second gate turned to the third gate, and finally a sacrificed monk was rewarded to the Tathagata Buddha.
The Buddha ordered the two to meet in the Main Hall.
Sun Wukong and Wang moved through three mountain gates and finally entered the Main Hall.
Wang Dong paid attention to the hall, but saw the eight Bodhisattvas, four Vajras, five hundred Aras, three thousand Jiedi, eleven great stars, and eighteen Galans, two lines arranged solemnly and solemnly.
Wukong and Wang Dong clasped their hands together to make a courteous ceremony.
The Buddha looked kind and smiled and asked, "Wukong, who are you with you?"
The sound of Buddha came out, and the entire hall was filled with echoes, and it was endless, as if it was equipped with a loudspeaker.
Wukong replied: "He is a new friend of his disciples. His surname is Wang and his name is Dong. Because he admires me, he especially asks Ken Lao Sun to bring him to worship him."
The Buddha smiled and nodded, saying, "If you have Buddha in your heart, you are the one in my sect."
After saying that, he reached out and pointed at Wang Dong, and a golden light poured into Wang Dong's eyebrows.
This is the Buddha's enlightenment, and the benefits are unimaginable. It can be said to be a blessing for cultivation in three lives and three lives.
Wang Dong took the golden light into it and bowed to the Buddha.
Tathagata nodded slightly and said, looking at Sun Wukong, and said, "Wukong, if you don't come today, I will send Vajra to spread you. Unexpectedly, you will come naturally. Just as I have something to tell you."
Wukong was not in a hurry to ask about the matter in the Heavenly Court and said, "Please speak for the Buddha."
Tathagata said in a serious tone: "The reincarnation of Moluo, the three realms are about to usher in a catastrophe. For the current plan, we must find the reincarnated demon child in the world within thirty-three years and take him to Lingshan. Wukong, you often walk around the world and also act as the responsibility of fighting against the Holy Buddha's charity. Therefore, I will hand over this task to you, how about it?"
Sun Wukong said: "Disciples follow the Buddha's will."
The Buddha nodded with relief.
Wukong said again: "Buddha, I just came from the heavenly court and saw that the heavenly court was desolate. The palace collapsed, the fairy tree broke, and a dilapidated scene. I don't know what happened."
"Is this true?" the Buddha asked.
"How dare you deceive me, the disciple?"
The Buddha reached out to calculate and observed the three realms. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Wukong, you were hit by Mo Luo's black lotus illusion. The heavenly court is now peaceful, so how can there be a sign of destruction?"
Sun Wukong is skeptical.
The Buddha said, "If you don't believe me, I will go with you."
Wukong hurriedly said, "Disciples can't ask for it."
The Buddha smiled and said, "Let's lead the way forward."
Wukong summoned somersault clouds, jumped onto the cloud head with Wang Dong, and returned to the heavenly court.
The Buddha's lotus moves, and time and space cannot help. No matter how fast Wukong's somersault cloud is, the Buddha floats behind him so much.
This crushing situation reminded Sun Wukong of the "palm promise" with Buddha eight hundred years ago and did not escape.
He had fought with the Buddha for thousands of miles in a blink of an eye. Wukong knew that he had no chance of winning, so he gave up this secret fight.
Not long after, the Nantian Gate was approaching. What made Sun Wukong and Wang Dong smacked him was that the Nantian Gate was not only fine, but they also saw the four heavenly kings guarding the Nantian Gate from afar.
When the four great heavenly kings saw that the Dou Zhan Sheng Buddha and the Tathagata Buddha arrived together, they were very surprised and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, leading three people to Lingxiao Palace.
Sun Wukong and Wang Dong saw the Jade Emperor and a group of familiar heavenly soldiers and generals in the Lingxiao Palace, such as Nezha, Taibai Jinxing, etc.
The Jade Emperor and the Buddha were polite and said to Wukong’s previous words. The Jade Emperor laughed and said, “Wukong, you are now a battle-torn Buddha. Why are you still so frivolous in your work? You even alarmed the Buddha’s Dharma. What should you do?”
Wukong said: "Last time for the little white dragon, I have asked the Buddha to explain the matter. As the saying goes, don't bother with Lao Sun."
All the immortals and Buddhas smiled, and the Jade Emperor cursed, "You monkey head", and no longer cared about it.
Afterwards, Sun Wukong asked the Buddha to visit the Bodhisattva's temple at random, and found that the Bodhisattva's temples were as usual and nothing was wrong.
Wang Dong glanced at Wukong and then looked at the ground.
Wukong instantly understood and said, "Please take your disciples to visit the last place, Jiuhua Mountain, the temple of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
The Buddha didn't care, so he took Wukong and Wang Dong to Jiuhua Mountain.
"The Great Bodhisattva of Ksitigarbha is guarding the Jiuyou Pass for many years and rarely appears in the temple." The Buddha explained.
Sun Wukong no longer had any doubts, so he sued the Buddha, asked for resignation, and returned to Huaguo Mountain.
As soon as the king and grandson left, the gods and Buddhas in Tianting and Lingshan changed back to their original form one after another, with strange appearances and laughed in unison.
"Brother Wang Dong, as you said, Buddha has been replaced."
Sun Wukong was talking all the way. Once he returned to Huaguo Mountain and entered the Water Curtain Cave, his tone and attitude changed.
"The Buddha is Wutian now, and the reincarnated demon child he asked you to find is actually the reincarnated spiritual child of the Buddha."
Wang Dong knew that Sun Wukong had guessed it, so he spoiled it directly.
Wukong pondered without saying a word, and after a while, he said, "Even the Buddha and the Jade Emperor are not his opponents. It can be seen that we can only be smart if we want to deal with him."
