Chapter 667: Why is the lamp burning?
When Zen Master Wuchao saw that Liu Ming had revealed his weapon, he couldn't help but frown.
He sighed and said: "Prince of the Demon Clan, why bother forcing him to do so!"
After hearing this, Liu Ming sneered and asked: "Randeng, why do you hide your head and tail!"
Zen Master Wuchao shook his head and said: "I know that it is difficult for me to escape your eyes when I come here, but Your Highness, you see through but don't tell me, so why do you do this?"
This time he admitted his identity. He was Ran Deng, the Ancient Scroll Buddha of Buddhism.
The deputy headmaster of Yuxu Palace at the time was Ran Deng Taoist.
Liu Ming looked at Ran Deng and then took back his God-killing Spear.
If you don't force him, he still won't admit it to you!
"Randeng, I'm afraid you came here just to give this scripture to Tang Sanzang! Haha, Tang Sanzang went to the West, so naturally Tathagata gave him the scriptures. Why are you so eager to give him the scriptures now? And you This sutra is not simple anymore! This is a book that allows Tang Sanzang to subtly understand and practice Buddhism!"
After Liu Ming finished speaking, he waited for Ran Deng's answer.
When Ran Deng heard what Liu Ming said, he was speechless for a while. Nothing could escape Liu Ming. It was really scary!
All his calculations are under his control, so this matter is a bit difficult to handle.
Because the purpose of transforming into Zen Master Wuchao was to avoid being discovered by others, but unexpectedly, Liu Ming found out.
The reason why he deliberately did not recognize Sun Wukong was to give Liu Ming an illusion so that he could not guess his identity.
Because how could he not know Sun Wukong? He had met Sun Wukong several times when he followed Liu Ming in his previous life.
Even in the original battle, it was himself and the Twelve Golden Immortals who suppressed Sun Wukong, and in the end he was beaten unconscious.
I originally thought that if he deliberately pretended not to know him, Liu Ming would not suspect that he was Ran Deng.
But unexpectedly, he was still found out.
"Your Highness, this matter is a matter of Buddhism and has nothing to do with you, the demon clan, or even your disciples. The poor monk just thinks that Tang Sanzang is just a Buddhist monk now and cannot reach the West safely, so he gives him a chance to save his life. The Heart Sutra, that’s all! Everything is for the purpose of traveling to the west to measure tribulations, the prince may be able to understand!"
After Ran Deng finished speaking, Liu Ming shook his head.
"I don't understand, Ran Deng. I'm afraid you have your own plans. Okay, I won't ask any more questions. In fact, I'm not looking for you to ask about your purpose. I'm just curious about the identity of Zen Master Wuchao. Now that I know it's you It’s over, and it’s over a worry, that’s all!”
After Liu Ming finished speaking, Ran Deng was a little confused. It was over like this. Is it really just curiosity?
"Haha, thank you very much for the prince. However, others cannot easily discover the hidden identity of the poor monk. I don't know how the prince found out about it. I am a little confused. Please clarify my doubts!"
Ran Deng asked.
And Liu Ming laughed and said: "Haha, Ran Deng, actually I said I was lying to you, do you believe it? Of course, it is not that there is no basis. It is not a simple person who can possess such a Heart Sutra. In addition to the whole Buddhism The Third Buddha is the four great Bodhisattvas, but the Tathagata will not come, and Maitreya Buddha probably has nothing to do with him. Among the four great Bodhisattvas, only Avalokitesvara has been able to sustain the calamity, but she will not hide her identity like this.
In addition, your behavior towards monkeys is a bit too much. If you really don’t know, forget it. But you know it very clearly. If you have to deliberately not know, this is a flaw. No matter how deep you hide it, But it still can't be covered up.
Therefore, I guessed that it was you and came to deceive you! "
When Ran Deng heard this, he instantly showed a wry smile, "That's it!"
No wonder!
It seems that I am really close to one another, and this demon clan prince is also a bit too powerful, and he is so thoughtful!
"Okay, Ran Deng, we haven't seen you for a long time. Now that you are an ancient Buddha in Buddhism, it is not easy to meet you! Haha, now that we have met, it can be regarded as reminiscing about the past. You go, I have to follow Tang Sanzang and the others are not afraid of ten thousand but just in case. The current situation is not optimistic! If someone really wants their lives and a powerful person comes, Sun Wukong will not be able to resist it!"
Liu Ming said.
After Ran Deng listened, he nodded.
"Okay, that poor monk will take the first step. Prince, see you later!"
Ran Deng didn't stay too long and left directly.
After Liu Ming watched Ran Deng leave, he had a sneer on his face.
Send scriptures to Tang Sanzang in order to give him some ability to protect himself?
Only a ghost can believe it!
In Tang Sanzang's current mortal body, no matter how deep his roots are and how strong his talent is, he cannot directly cultivate to become a Golden Immortal or a Great Luo Immortal.
When you encounter a powerful monster, you should be caught or not.
The purpose of lighting the lantern is probably only one, and that is to introduce Tang Sanzang to the world.
No matter what achievements Tang Sanzang achieved in the future, don't forget that he was able to do this because of Ran Deng, who introduced him to the door.
Tang Sanzang naturally did not dare to be disrespectful to Ran Deng.
But what is the purpose of Ran Deng doing this?
This must be a battle between Buddhists!
This Ran Deng doesn't want Tathagata to get all the benefits of this calamity. This is not to come down in advance to increase his bargaining chip.
In the future, Tang Sanzang will probably be able to obey the Tathagata at most, and he will also be obedient to Ran Deng.
In this way, Ran Deng can gain benefits. At least he did not gain nothing during the calamity.
In addition, Zhu Bajie said that Ran Deng used his identity as Zen Master Wuchao to ask him to join his sect, but Zhu Bajie did not dare to join because he had received the enlightenment of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Ran Deng did this to increase his bargaining chip. It would be best if Zhu Bajie also became his.
Thinking about the whole people who traveled to the west, Tang Sanzang was the one who led him to the door, and Zhu Bajie was his disciple. Now the Tathagata can only be given to a monk!
Sun Wukong is Liu Ming's own disciple. The entire Buddhist sect knows this, and naturally knows how many benefits he has received. It is impossible for Sun Wukong to be of the same mind as Buddhism, and it is impossible for him to be completely devoted to anyone in Buddhism.
Once he regains his memory, he still belongs to Liu Ming.
So the only ones who can make up their minds are Tang Sanzang and Zhu Bajie.
But it's okay now, this Tang Sanzang is already half a lamp.
In just a quarter of an hour, Liu Ming had already thought clearly about the purpose and plan of burning the lantern.
After he figured it out, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Buddhism in the West is not monolithic now, but each has its own calculations and plans!
