Sections 124 have their own cause and effect

The boundary is east of Shenzhou and Chang'an City.

After Li Yuan, the Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, won the world, he passed the throne to his second son Li Shimin. Li Shimin was Emperor Taizong of Tang, and his reign was Zhenguan. It is now the 13th year of Zhenguan.

Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, was a master of literature and martial arts, and was the emperor of the ages! During the Zhenguan period, he did not pick up any remains on the roads of the Tang Dynasty, and did not close his doors at night. The people were rich and the soldiers were strong. He came to pay tribute to all countries overseas!

On this day, Emperor Taizong of Tang was sleeping in a daze. Suddenly, a golden light shone, and a scent of Sanskrit came, and a strange fragrance slowly drifted by. A barefoot and red-faced monk came from the West and sang:

"The golden elixir of the green lotus is in the Sakyamuni, and the Tathagata's life is as long as ever. The three vehicles of Qingping Yongle are brocades, and the nine-grade flowers of immortality are healthy and prosperous. The true Dharma King in Wuxiangmen is a fairy family in the sky. The universe and earth are all called ancestors, and the golden body is a six-meter-long life."

Emperor Taizong of Tang saw that the people came were extraordinary, so he did not dare to be negligent. He only went up and asked, "What is the name of the monk? What ancient temple is there to cultivate the Qing Dynasty?"

The monk clasped his hands together and sang a promise: "I am a monk named Tathagata, and the world is where I am a monk practiced in peace! I have met His Majesty once!"

Emperor Taizong of Tang suddenly woke up and hurriedly bowed: "It turned out to be the Western Buddhist Tathagata Buddha who gave me the name in the past! But I don't know what the Buddha came here to the west, what would he see?"

When Emperor Taizong of Tang was born, he was like he came from the West and left the four words "help the world and the people" with Emperor Taizong Li Yuan, so Emperor Gaozu named Emperor Taizong "Li Shimin".

Emperor Taizong of Tang fought for wars throughout his life. After the reign of the country, he followed Taoism as his appearance and Confucianism as his own, so he didn't know much about Buddhism. However, Emperor Taizong of Tang did not forget the help of the thirteen-stick monks in Shaolin Temple to himself in the past and enthroned Shaolin Temple as a royal temple. The Buddhist Zen lineage of Shaolin Temple began to flourish during the Zhenguan period.

Tathagata said: "Your Majesty, my Buddhism has always taken it as my responsibility to educate the people of the world. Just as the Tao has promoted Buddhism today, there are still ninety-ninety-one scriptures in my Buddhism. It should be circulated in Shaolin Temple!"

How could Emperor Taizong of Tang not know the Tathagata's intention? He said immediately: "I had received the grace of the thirteen-stick monk in Shaolin Temple to survive. How dare I forget each other? I will discuss this with my ministers in the morning tomorrow! I will strive to come to the east as soon as possible!"

Tathagata said, "Namo Amitabha, this will bring you trouble. Your Majesty is broad-minded and will be rewarded by good people!" After that, another golden light flashed by, and the figure disappeared!

Emperor Taizong of Tang was shocked and suddenly woke up. It turned out that it was just a dream in Nan Ke. Lin Lei

Among the five mountains, Songshan Mountain in the middle is the most majestic and elegant, elegant and attractive. Songshan Mountain lies across from east to west. It stands majestic in the Central Plains, with Shaolin River in the middle as the boundary, Taishi Mountain in the east as the main peak in the east and Shaoshi Mountain in the west, with Shaoshi Mountain in the side peak in the west. There are 72 peaks in total! Shaolin Temple, the source of Buddhist Zen Buddhism, is located on Shaoshi Mountain in the west.

Shaolin Temple is the first ancestor of Zen Buddhism. Among the four original Buddhist masters, Namo, the reincarnation and rebirth of Medicine Buddha, the reincarnation of the Buddha. It has been five generations now. The abbot of Shaolin Temple is the fifth ancestor Hongren.

Since Shaolin Temple was enthroned as a national temple by Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin, it has been incense and has been popular. It is also because of the dual cultivation of Zen and martial arts of Shaolin Temple. Therefore, among the five major sects of cultivation in the realm of the realm, Shaolin Temple has also occupied a place.

The five major cultivation sects in the realm are divided into: the Shushan sect of the People's Church, the Kunlun sect of the Anarchy, the Wuliang sect of the Jie Sect, the Qingyun sect of the Xuanmu Island, and the Shaolin Temple of Buddhism.

The back mountain of Shaolin Temple faces a cliff. According to legend, it was the place where Master Bodhidharma faced the wall for nine years and founded the Zen Buddhism. It has always been a forbidden place for Buddhism. There is only a clean monk left, and ordinary people cannot wait to approach it.

But today there are four figures on this cliff. One of them is solemn in appearance. He has a red face and barefoot, and his ears are hanging on his shoulders. It is the Buddha Tathagata, known as the ancestor of all Buddhas.

Behind the Tathagata stood a female Buddha, with a dignified appearance and compassionate face. She was holding a jade bottle in her hand. A willow was inserted into the bottle. This person was Guanyin Bodhisattva, the manager of Buddhist Dongdi affairs.

There were two more people standing behind Guanyin Bodhisattva. One was the old monk Baimei, wearing a golden cassock and holding a golden bowl; there was a young man standing beside the old monk, with a handsome appearance and a beautiful face between his eyebrows. These two were the fifth ancestor of Shaolin Temple, Hongren and his disciple Shenxiu.

Hongren is already in high spirits this year, and he taught Shenxiu all his life. After this incident of the eastward advance of Buddhism, he will hand over the Zen robe and bowl to Shenxiu. Therefore, this time he met the Buddha Tathagata and Guanyin Bodhisattva and brought Shenxiu together!

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "Namo Amitabha, but we are incompetent. We are so tired that the Buddha is going to go this trip himself!"

Tathagata sighed and said, "The Bodhisattva does not need to blame himself. Things in the world are changing so many times. How can one be satisfied with each one? Besides, the Taoist Xuanmu has been able to achieve enlightenment for a long time and is still before you and me. It is not surprising that this matter was calculated by Taoist Xuanmu!"

It turns out that when Buddhism advances eastward, there is no need to find the Tathagata Buddha himself to find Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin, and end the cause and effect of the thirteen-stick monks who saved Luoyang in Luoyang for no reason. For no reason, Buddhism has nothing to say to the fact that Buddhism has been rewarded with gratitude and hope. Besides, if Emperor Taizong of Tang is a little narrow-minded and insists on repaying the cause and effect by canonizing Shaolin Temple as a national monastery, Buddhism has nothing to say!

This Guanyin Bodhisattva had already discussed with Taoist Xuandu Master Xuandu to create some troubles and ask Emperor Taizong of Tang to come to Buddhism to seek the true scriptures. There is also a story about this:

People from the Buddhist and Taoist sects such as Guanyin and Xuandu feel that Xuanmu Island is now in good luck. To deal with Xuanmu Island, they must first weaken the Xuanmu Island lineage.

Now there are three places where people can win great fortune for Xuanmu Island, one is the Netherworld Hell, the Confucian and Law schools, and the other is the Five Lakes and the World! There are both Buddhist and Taoist religions in the Netherworld Hell; the Confucian and Law schools have no idea to start; so the Buddhist and Taoist religions chose to start against the Five Lakes and the Worlds.

Among the five lakes and four seas, the strongest person is the Qiantang River Dragon King Ao Lie (originally the Dragon King of Jinghe, the Sei Buddha changed it to the Qiantang River Dragon King for the cause and effect in the following text.), and Ao Lie is very angry and has a simple mind, and is the easiest to be attacked, so he became the unscrupulous disciple of the Buddhist and Taoist religions. Yuan Tiangang, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, transformed into an ordinary sorcerer and went to the Qiantang River to make hexagrams. It is not considered good or bad luck in the world, but only the daily climate change.

Yuan Tiangang was sure of his calculations, and was immediately shocked by the people near Qiantang River. Whenever the people were concerned about the weather, they always came to ask Yuan Tiangang first.

Over time, this incident reached the ears of Ao Lie, the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Ao Lie thought to himself: I am in charge of climate change in the Qiantang River. If Yuan Tiangang does this, who will come to worship my Dragon King Temple? Isn’t this intentional demolishing my platform and smashing my place?

So Ao Lie turned into an ordinary person and came to ask how much it would rain in Yuan Tiangang tomorrow. Yuan Tiangang was not vague and waved his pen and wrote "Three coins, two millimeters, one cent" on the paper to Ao Lie.

Ao Lie was happy when he saw it, and immediately said to Yuan Tiangang: "If you are not sure about the land, I will drive you out of the Qiantang River!"

Who would have expected that the next day, the Thunder Department of Heavenly Court issued a rainfall order, which was exactly "three cents and two millimeters per cent". Ao Lie was stunned, but how could Ao Lie willingly admit defeat? So he came up with a solution, which was to change the rainfall to "three cents and two millimeters per cent".

Coincidentally, the Dragon King of the East China Sea Ao Guang came to Qiantang River to inspect. When Ao Guang heard Ao Lie talk about this, he suddenly remembered that when he was on Xuanmu Island that day, Li Song wanted to tell Qiantang River Dragon King Ao Lie, what he said, "If the heavenly court sends people to say that the rainfall is three cents and two cents per cent, please be careful."

With Li Song's ability to learn from the genius, he will not be able to speak out, and this is really the case!

At that moment, Ao Guang scolded Ao Lie and ordered Ao Lie to stay at home and not go out. Ao Guang went to rain in person "three cents and two millimeters per cent". Although Ao Lie was known as the number one general of the Dragon Clan, he did not dare to refuse to obey in front of Ao Guang, the leader of the Aquarium, and Li Song's words reminded him first.

It turns out that the Qiantang River is the most evil river in the world. Now it is the time when the Qiantang River tide is approaching. If there is a rainfall of "three cents and two millimeters per cent", the Qiantang River embankment will be destroyed, and the people will be displaced and countless casualties will be injured.

Ao Lie beat Yuan Tiangang and decided to settle the score with Yuan Tiangang. Yuan Tiangang had to talk about this cause and effect with Ao Lie. Ao Lie is also a Taoist practitioner, so how could he not know that it was powerful?

Yuan Tiangang asked Ao Lie to find Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin to save his life. The emperor on earth is known as the true dragon emperor. How could he not save the Dragon King?

Who can save Ao Lie with such a great cause and effect? ​​After his death, he will definitely bother Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin to help him. Li Shimin was frightened and wanted to find liberation. At this time, Buddhism sent Guanyin, who had the cultivation of quasi-saints, to preach.

The plan of killing two Buddhas and Taoism kills two birds with one stone is complete!

Unexpectedly, Li Song from Xuanmu Island had predicted that he would have lost all the careful planning of the Buddhist and Taoist religions! But Buddhism could not wait for anyone to move eastward. In desperation, Tathagata had to take action himself!

Another disadvantage of Tathagata's personal action is that Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty Li Shimin felt that Tathagata's actions were because Buddhism wanted to do it. Now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and the people are safe, Li Shimin is not so concerned about it!

After all, for the same thing, there are two completely different mentalities of seeking others and seeking oneself!
