Chapter 403 The Supreme Being’s dog-beating stick changed Buddha into Tao, and the Buddha ended up!
"Other teachers?"
Taishang Laojun was stunned for a moment, and Golden Horn and Silver Horn also cast curious glances.
Immediately, the old man just smiled gently:
"On the path of spiritual cultivation, it is normal to learn from the leaders of hundreds of schools. This is the right path. To be honest, it is not me who led you to the spiritual path, but your teacher Lu."
After a pause, he spoke kindly:
"I know all this. Are you just going to tell me this?"
"Not really."
Lu Xuan coughed lightly, rolled his eyes, and called Lu Jianxue to come over.
The latter stood obediently in front of Lu Xuan, standing impartially between him and Taishang Laojun.
Lu Xuan touched his nose with some guilt before continuing:
"To be precise, I should worship Master."
Taishang Laojun was suddenly startled and said in surprise:
"Is there such a thing? No wonder you are so coy, but this is not a big deal. As I said before, learning from the leaders of hundreds of schools of thought is the right path, and being a teacher is not a small-minded person."
As he spoke, he stroked his long beard and joked:
"Why, in your eyes, my teacher is just such a petty person? You, you, you"
Lu Xuan felt even more guilty. He stretched out two fingers and whispered:
"Thank you twice."
Taishang Laojun's expression was stagnant, but he immediately smiled happily and said:
"As I said before, please go on the road. Huh? Two?"
He was a little sensitive to this number and squinted slightly:
"They can't be your second and third uncles, right?"
Lu Xuan smiled coquettishly, stretched out his hand to touch Lu Jianxue's shoulders, stopped the confused girl in front of him, and then said:
"As expected of a teacher, he knows everything!"
Taishang Laojun suddenly fell silent.
For a long time,
A kind smile appeared on his face:
"When you see the snow, lean over."
Lu Jianxue obediently moved to the left, and Lu Xuan had a bad premonition in his heart. His own aura was trembling crazily, and every cell in his body was sending out a warning! !
He hugged his head and ran away:
"Master! On the road of seeking guidance from the leaders of hundreds of schools, it should be the right path!!"
"Teachers must be strict. If you are not strict, you will not be able to stand up!" Taishang Laojun grabbed the ruler and stood up with gritted teeth:
"Come, come, the teacher will cleanse your body and strengthen your body!"
With a wave of his hand, he blocked time and years. Lu Xuan was frozen in place, unable to move an inch despite all his strength.
I could only watch in horror as the old man held up his ruler and walked closer and closer.
"Master!!"
Lu Xuan roared:
“There are so many people here, so many people!”
The next moment, Jin Jiao, Yin Jiao, and Lu Jianxue were thrown out of Tushita Palace with their faces covered.
They looked blankly at the door of the Taoist palace that was slammed shut, and listened to the tapping sound of the ruler inside and the painful cry of a certain Taoist lord. They looked at each other and swallowed their saliva.
In the Tao Palace, the ruler fell on Lu Xuan. Even with the terror of his transcending Tao body, he still grinned in pain.
When the ruler fell, it did not cause much damage, and there were even traces of the Taoist charm soaking into the skin.
But even now Lu Xuan can't bear this kind of pure pain that hits the true soul.
I don’t know how long it took.
Taishang Laojun blew his beard and glared, waved his hand, and released the restraint. Lu Xuan collapsed on the ground, grinning, and his face was twisted into a ball.
Teacher, he really hit me, and it hurt really hard.
It took the old man a while to calm down some of his anger, and he sat on the futon angrily:
"The wings are really strong. You can build such a physique without making a sound, huh."
He slowly put away the ruler, took several deep breaths, and exhaled all the dirty air:
"Tell me, when did it happen?"
Lu Xuan lay paralyzed on the ground for a long time, then got up with difficulty, feeling the Taoist charm on his skin, and said calmly:
"Yeah, it didn't take long."
Taishang Laojun's expression softened a little:
"Actually, I have some speculations recently. Anyway, those two guys do love you. Now that you are close to the Taoist Fruit, they accept you as their disciple. They can give you some luck and help you to prove the Tao."
As he spoke, the old man sighed:
“That’s it, that’s it”
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Xuan added in a low voice:
"I mean, it hasn't been long since you gave me the title."
Taishang Laojun fell silent again.
‘Crack! ’
You can hear the crisp sound of bones exploding. The old man clenched his fists tightly and smiled:
"It hasn't been long since I gave you the title. When was it specifically?"
Lu Xuan shivered and remained silent.
The Supreme Being spoke gently:
"Xiaoxuan, don't worry. Let's not say that I am not a narrow-minded person as a teacher. Let's just say that you have passed this ruler and everything is over."
After a pause, he continued to smile:
"So, when exactly did those two guys accept you? Not long after I gave you the Taoist title. Could it be the time when I was forging the Hongmeng weapon for you?"
Lu Xuan said cautiously:
"A little earlier."
The Supreme General clenched his fists loudly, still smiling:
"Is that the time in the late Qin Dynasty?"
"It's still a little early."
The sound of the fist bones exploding became louder. The old man stopped talking and just stared at Lu Xuan with a smile on his face, which made his hair stand on end.
moment,
Lu Xuan imitated the way little Lu Nian did before, pinched his earlobes with both hands, and answered honestly:
"It's almost the time when I have not yet attained enlightenment."
"You have not yet attained enlightenment."
Taishang Laojun squeezed out these words from his teeth word by word, his chest heaved violently,
When did Xiaoxuan become a heavenly being?
The fourth month on the spiritual path?
Or the fifth month? ?
Speaking of which, when did my eyes become hazy and foggy?
In other words, it had only been two days since he had accepted his apprentice, and those two bastards had been pried away by him? ? ?
Taishang Laojun was trembling with anger and went through the past years again. One 'dot' after another was connected together, and all kinds of doubts were solved.
I see.
It dawned on him.
OK OK.
OK! OK!
No wonder, no wonder those two bastards suddenly felt like glue, no wonder they looked at me so strangely, no wonder.
Taishang Laojun felt more and more uncomfortable in his heart. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The angrier he became, the more he thought about it.
He took another deep breath and forced a smile:
"Go out for the teacher."
"Teacher" Lu Xuan quickly stopped him and recounted the plans of Bodhi Ancient Buddha, Demon Ancestor and others.
After a moment of silence, Taishang Laojun stiffly spoke:
"Then you go and ask your two masters to come over and tell them to cast a weapon for you."
He bit the word 'Master' very hard.
Lu Xuan opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything. He bowed obediently, tiptoed, and walked away quietly.
After Lu Xuan left, Taishang Laojun pondered for a long time and picked the innate spiritual root from the beginning of time.
He also took immortal gold, divine iron, etc., then opened the Bagua furnace, put them all into it, and silently turned on the fire. Finally, he took off the avenues such as "Pain" and "Tearing" and blended them into the newly refined stick.
"Let's call you a dog-beating stick."
The Supreme Being sneered.
………………
Lingshan Buddhist Country.
"What's wrong with you?"
The Buddha, who looked like a middle-aged farmer, looked at Sakyamuni Tathagata, whose face turned green and white for a while, and was a little confused.
"No problem, no problem"
Sakyamuni Tathagata bared his teeth and winced in pain. The ring ruler struck again and again, penetrating everything and directly hitting the true spirit. The pain reflected all the incarnations of Lu Xuan.
It hurts, it hurts!
After a long while,
He took a breath and bowed with a wry smile:
"You suddenly lost your composure, but it made your seniors laugh."
"Come in and talk." Buddha suppressed the doubts in his heart, invited Lu Xuan into the cabin, and poured two cups of hot tea:
"I heard your conversation with Ananda and Kassapa just now. I have some guesses about what you are planning. I support it, but this matter is very difficult."
Lu Xuan endured the pain and said solemnly:
"But this may be an opportunity. Both Amitabha and Bodhi have gone astray. They do not follow the path of universal salvation for all sentient beings. Instead, they allow common people to save them and share their own catastrophes with all sentient beings."
After a pause,
He took a deep breath and spoke methodically:
"Most of the Buddhas who are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges still have compassion and the belief to save those who are suffering. If they expose all this, it may not be impossible. [The lower part suppresses the upper part]."
Buddha's expression moved slightly and he took a sip of tea:
"You want to drive those two out of Buddhism and cut off their foundation? But to be honest, this is almost impossible to accomplish. They are the source of Buddhism."
"What about the source?"
Lu Xuan smiled calmly:
"Since I have deviated from my original intention and my original purpose, the Lord Buddha may not be irreplaceable. How can I not be 'Amitabha'? How can my predecessors not be 'Bodhi'?"
Buddha's expression condensed slightly, as if he was thinking, and finally shook his head:
"These are too far away. You'd better get through the catastrophe in front of you first. Do you two want to restart the journey to the west? I'm afraid this catastrophe will be difficult to survive."
Lu Xuan looked solemn again:
"Coming here to pay my respects to my senior is also related to my journey to the west. I want to ask my senior to come to an end."
The Buddha pondered for a long time, nodded, and then shook his head:
"I have to do it, but the risk of getting involved in this disaster is very high. I need enough benefits."
He was very calm and did not shy away from anything, and Lu Xuan nodded happily.
It is natural to ask others to step into the great tribulation, get involved in the dispute between Tao and Fruit, pay the price, and give benefits.
When he invited Senior Haotian to enter, he also offered the [position of God].
Lu Xuan asked softly:
"I don't know, senior, can I ask for anything?"
Buddha put down his tea cup and said with a smile:
"As you inherit my past identity and my memories, you should know what I want."
Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, looking over the past of 'Sakyamuni Tathagata', overlooking everything, and finally his eyes fell on the time when Sakyamuni Tathagata was first born.
When Sakyamuni was born, he was still a baby. He walked seven steps in the southeast, northwest and northwest, pointed one hand to the sky and touched the ground with the other, and said:
"I am the only one in heaven and under heaven!"
He understood somewhat and asked tentatively:
"What do you want? Exclusiveness?"
"Yes and no."
Buddha nodded, but then shook his head:
"I just want to be the 'supreme one' in the path of Buddha. As for the reason, you have already mentioned it. Amitabha and Bodhi have deviated from their original intention and let sentient beings cross over to them instead of them to cross over all sentient beings. Only by being the only one can I practice this." Follow my own path.”
Hearing this, Lu Xuan felt a little emotional and chuckled:
"It's a coincidence that what the younger generation wants is also the same. With the method of "I am the only one", I will follow the path I want to create a "Hongjun's World"."
After a pause, he said with a smile:
"On this point, my seniors and I are in common. At the beginning, my teacher said that this ambition of mine was difficult. The previous Taiyi who wanted to be 'the only one' had already failed, but I didn't expect my seniors to have the same idea."
Buddha nodded slightly:
"I've always been like this."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xuan said decisively:
"In this way, if the success is achieved, I will try my best to help my senior ascend to the position of Buddha Lord. If Bodhi and Amitabha are expelled from the Buddhist path, then my senior will be the only Buddha Lord. In this way, can it be regarded as 'the only one'?"
"Forget it."
Buddha smiled and said slowly:
"Then, what do you want me to do when we resume our journey to the West?"
Lu Xuan smiled brightly:
"It is not yet certain whether the person who is destined to be robbed in the west will change. If it does not change, he will still be the same monkey. I will ask the senior to join my Taoist dynasty, change his name, and do something."
"What name do you adopt and what do you do?"
"In some ancient history, after the journey to the west, there was another disaster, which was the continuation of the battle for the journey to the west."
Lu Xuan did not answer directly, but recounted:
"In that calamity, the person who deserves the calamity will change the Buddha into the Tao, the Arhat into the Venerable One, the Bodhisattva into the Great Master, the Buddha into the Great Enlightenment Golden Immortal, and all the Buddhas into deities."
"Lin Lingsu?"
Buddha laughed, obviously deeply impressed by this past tribulation, and said with emotion:
"This calamity broke out for the first time in seven thousand eight hundred and forty-nine ancient histories. At that time, Buddhism was almost wiped out, but Taoism reversed the decline of the westward journey and prospered in one fell swoop."
After a pause, he looked deeply:
"Do you want me to enter your Taoist dynasty, change my name to Lin Lingsu, and go through this catastrophe again during my journey to the west, changing Buddhism into Taoism?"
"Indeed." Lu Xuan said calmly.
After a long silence, Buddha nodded:
"It's not impossible."
Lu Xuan was delighted that another Daoguo had entered the Dao Dynasty, and the fortune of the Dao Dynasty should have skyrocketed again.
As the leader of the Dao Dynasty, he naturally benefited the most.
………………
"Cast?"
The blind Taoist and the lame Taoist were a little puzzled:
"How come your master master suddenly wants to make a big weapon again?"
Lu Xuanzhen's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a guilty conscience:
"I don't know much about this anymore."
The blind Taoist didn't think much and said carelessly:
"Forget it, I'll take a trip later."
"Wait a minute."
The lame Taoist frowned and muttered:
"Why do I have a bad premonition? Something bad seems to be happening."
"Is there any?" The blind Taoist was surprised: "I am the cause of all the effects, but I haven't noticed anything unusual. Could it be that Demon Ancestor, Bodhi and others are plotting against you?"
"Maybe?" The lame Taoist was a little unsure. He just felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it. He felt uncomfortable all over.
It is now close to the end of the tribulation, and the closer to the end of the tribulation, the stronger the spirit treasure is, and the weaker the Yuanshi is.
Shaking his head, the lame Taoist no longer thought about it, and immediately followed Lu Xuan quietly towards the world together with the blind Taoist.
Arriving at the gate of Tushita Palace, the blind Taoist was surprised:
"Why are you waiting outside the door?"
Lu Jianxue shook her head in confusion, Jinjiao and Yinjiao saluted, but did not dare to answer.
The two Taoists did not think deeply and immediately pushed the door open and entered, followed closely by Lu Xuan.
"Your Majesty, what kind of weapon do you want to make?"
As soon as he entered the Tusita Palace, the blind Taoist smiled and asked questions, but he saw that Taishang Laojun had disappeared. Standing in the palace was the "Taishang Daode Tianzun".
He spoke calmly:
"You're late, the big weapon has already been cast."
As he spoke, he opened the Bagua furnace and leisurely took out a stick and a curtain.
"What are these two things?"
The blind Taoist and the lame Taoist came forward curiously, and the latter said with some disgust:
"Your Majesty, your skill at forging weapons is still not very good."
The Supreme Being spoke softly:
"This object is a dog-beating stick, and the curtain is for sealing, so it has no name."
"Dog beating stick?" The blind Taoist said happily: "What name did you choose? You really have no skills at all."
Lu Xuan took a step back silently, thought for a moment, and took another step back.
But the Supreme Being is smiling but not smiling:
"Really? I think this name is very good, very good."
The moment the words fell, the blind Taoist felt nothing, while the lame Taoist's heart was filled with alarm bells.
In another moment, a big old hand stretched out from the Bagua furnace, grasping the curtain, covering and sealing the heads of the two Taoists to isolate them from all fluctuations.
"Take a deep breath, dizziness is normal."
With that said, the Supreme Master came forward fiercely with a dog-beating stick.
‘Dang Dang Dang! ! ’
The muffled sounds and screams were all isolated by the curtains, and no trace was leaked.
Only vaguely, Lu Xuan heard the two masters' cries of pain.
“Your Majesty, are you sick!!”
The old man swung the dog-beating stick more fiercely and gritted his teeth:
"I'm beating you two old dogs!"
He chased the two Taoists all over the Taoist palace, smashing them with a stick specially attached with the Taoist code of [Pain].
Lu Xuan silently covered his eyes.
How miserable!
