Chapter 44: The ancient and modern times are in reverse and the wishful thinking

Master Xuanzang sighed: "At that time, Bian Ji was devoted to Buddha, but he met Princess Gaoyang. The princess had many swordsmen around him, and was deeply favored by Emperor Taizong. Bian Ji did not dare to offend her, so he was forced to have an affair with her. Who knew that God wanted to get rid of the princess Bian Ji, who was determined to get rid of the princess, actually fell in love with a maid next to the princess. Later, every time he wanted to meet the princess, he just wanted to find an opportunity to meet the maid. Later, someone was jealous of Bian Ji's solo writing "

"A Record of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" stole the golden spirit pillow given to him by the princess to expose his affair with the princess. Emperor Taizong wanted to cut him in half, but the poor monk cherished him to learn it. He secretly used Buddhist magic to save him with a substitute. At that time, he had the idea of ​​returning to the world and wanted to quietly leave Chang'an with the maid. Unexpectedly, Emperor Taizong executed more than 20 maids around the princess. The man he cherished was one of them, and the maid was already pregnant with his child."

Yang Moxiang said: "It's unreasonable. Why did the princess make a mistake? But why did she kill those innocent people?"

Master Xuanzang said: "All cause and effect can be transformed into karma. When karma comes, who can stop it? If there are so many truths in the world to talk about, why should the Buddha persuade people to escape from the sea of ​​suffering?"

Lin Shuxiang said: "Master Bian Ji will change from a famous monk to an evil monk. Is it related to the death of the maid?"

Master Xuanzang said: "Famous monks and evil monks are just a difference of thought. Bian Ji was forced by the princess. The maid was simple and kind, and the children in her belly were even more innocent. Why did the princess planted by the cause, but others should suffer this evil result? The Buddha often said that the retribution of good and evil is like a shadow, but why are evil people fine and good people punished? Bian Ji couldn't figure it out, so he began to kill people, and he began to kill those good people, trying to prove that the Buddha was wrong. Since these people are innocent, why did they die under his knife? Doesn't this prove that there is actually no distinction between good and evil in this world, and the three misfortunes and five sufferings are actually for good people?"

Yang Moxiang pursed her lips and said, "What is this reason for him? Whoever kills his beloved will kill whoever he should do, what should he do if he kills those irrelevant people?"

Lin Shuxiang shook her head and said, "Sister, your words are also unreasonable. Although the person he loves is implicated by the princess, the one who killed her is not the princess. Should he kill Emperor Taizong? Emperor Taizong is a wise ruler. If he dies at his hands, the world will be in chaos and the people will suffer, then those suffering people will be innocent?"

Yang Moxiang said: "Isn't that a solution?"

Lin Shuxiang said: "There are so many things in this world that are unsolvable."

Xuanzang said: "The so-called cause and effect is like a snow mountain. Because it is the stone that falls on the top of the mountain, the stone slides down, and the snowball rolls down, causing an avalanche. This avalanche is an unstoppable karma. The villages and people who have been destroyed by this karma are the fruits produced by the stone."

Tang Xiaofeng said: "If you compare Princess Gaoyang to evil causes and compare Taizong's wrath to unstoppable karma, then the death of the innocent maid and the child in her belly is the result of the bad things that Princess Gaoyang did? The cause you planted yourself is in others?"

He also said: "The so-called good cause to be planted and good results are the good causes I planted, and others will bear the good results, and others will bear the bad results?"

Master Xuanzang said: "That's true."

Tang Xiaofeng said: "It's true that there is no reason."

Master Xuanzang said: "The Flower Fairy and Chang'e bet, but those flower gods are going to suffer with her. What's the reason?"

Tang Xiaofeng thought to himself that this seemed to be correct.

Yang Moxiang said: "Chang'e, I know, who is the Fairy of Flowers?"

Tang Xiaofeng patted her shoulder and sighed: "If it is said that you become a maid, the fairy of Flowers is the reason why you become a maid."

Yang Moxiang: "Ah?" I can't understand.

Tang Xiaofeng thought: "According to this statement, it is not unreasonable for Ai Cuifang and the others to kill their sister. If they weren't full and had to go to make a bet with Chang'e, they would probably be fairies in the sky. More importantly, according to the plot in the book, the sister went to Xianshan to be a god. Shuxiang, Moxiang, Lan Ying, Xiuying and others would not die well. It was indeed the sister who committed the crime. Do they suffer?"

Ziqiong Yan said, "If this is the case, then wouldn't everyone do bad things? Anyway, it's all the retribution to others?"

Master Xuanzang chanted the Buddha's name: "As there are so many evil causes, the karma is getting bigger and bigger, and the consequences are naturally more. How can you know that it will not fall on yourself? If everyone planted good causes, wouldn't everyone bear good results?"

Ziqiong Yan said: "Although this is the case, those who do bad things may not necessarily be punished badly, and those who do good things may not necessarily be rewarded..."

Master Xuanzang said: "Who says goodness is not rewarded, and evil is not rewarded?"

Ziqiong Yan said in a daze: “Master, what you said by yourself…”

Master Xuanzang said: "If there is no good reward for goodness and no evil reward for evil, then what should I do in the twenty-fourth grade hell? What should I do in the three mischiefs and five sufferings? What should I do in the Pure Land?"

Lin Shuxiang sighed softly: "Buddhist is responsible for the cause but not the result."

Master Xuanzang said: "If you plant evil causes and result in evil consequences. Although this evil consequence may fall on others, it will eventually be repaid on yourself. Cause and effect cycles are unhappy, so Buddhism emphasizes good relationships and good deeds. This is like planting a tree. If everyone is willing to plant a tree, wouldn't everyone be able to enjoy the coolness? Even if the tree you planted is cool for others, it is your merit."

Tang Xiaofeng thought something... So what Buddhism calls "karma and effect"?

Lin Shuxiang whispered: "So that's it. Master Bian Ji wants to prove that the Buddha is wrong by killing people. Since good people will die tragically, what else can we talk about? But he actually just confuses the evil consequences with retribution. Although the death of the child in his beloved and the child in her belly is caused by the evil deeds of Princess Gaoyang, the retribution will eventually fall on Princess Gaoyang himself. The more evil the consequences, the greater the retribution. As long as you are in the earthly world, it will be difficult to get rid of karma, so good people will suffer, so good people will die tragically. But this does not mean that the Buddha is wrong. Hell is not the earthly world. All cause and effect will eventually be repaid in hell. Therefore, Master Bian Ji wants to use this method to prove that the Buddha is wrong, and there is no reason."

Master Xuanzang sighed, "No, you are wrong. Bian Ji has learned the essence of Buddhism. I have obtained hundreds of Buddhist scriptures from the West, and more than thirty volumes were translated by him. How could he not tell the difference between cause and effect?"

Lin Shuxiang frowned and said, "What is he killing people?"

Master Xuanzang said in a deep voice: "He killed people for the sake of evil causes. He killed thousands of good people. He captured the souls of these innocent people and allowed them to suffer the three misfortunes and five sufferings that only evil people would encounter. With the evil causes he accumulated, even if he was sent to Xue Li's hell, he deserved it. If he could still attain body and become a Buddha, wouldn't it prove that the Buddha was wrong?"

Lin Shuxiang said in a daze: "How can this be done? Buddhism emphasizes cause and effect the most. Before becoming a Buddha, one must first resolve some cause and effect related to oneself. He planted these thousands of evil causes, but he was afraid that he would not have to think about resolving it. How could he still become a Buddha?"

Tang Xiaofeng nodded vigorously... If the Maitreya monk did so many evil things, he could still become a Buddha, the so-called cause and effect would really turn into jokes.

Master Xuanzang sighed and said, "Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible, but there has never been any absolute in the world. The defense machine has made many preparations, but there is still something missing."

Tang Xiaofeng's eyes rolled and he smiled and said, "Is it the womb-hidden glass bead he wanted to force Master to hand over?"

Master Xuanzang sighed: "It is the glazed beads hidden in the fetus."

Tang Xiaofeng said: "What is this hidden glass bead?"

Master Xuanzang said: "This womb-hidden glazed bead is a unique and unique thing in the world. Everyone only knows that the Brahmin girl has entered the Avici Hell, sacrificed her body to save her mother, and finally became the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but she did not know that she had also entered a strange way before she sacrificed herself. The mother of the Brahmin girl committed the most serious "Meng Break the Harmony" among the five serious sins. At that time, she had fallen into the Avici Hell and suffered all the sufferings of the three misfortunes. In order to save her mother, the Brahmin girl dispersed her family property and traveled all over the three realms and nine states. She also obtained a magic weapon from a friend in the heaven. Although the magic weapon is now called the womb-hidden glazed bead, it had another name at that time."

Tang Xiaofeng asked: "What's the name?"

Master Xuanzang looked at him: "The past and present are reversed and the wishful thinking!"

Tang Xiaofeng smiled and said, "What a mighty name, ancient and modern times, ancient and modern times, and ancient and modern times... Even ancient and modern times can be reversed. What else can't be done?"

Yang Moxiang thought, "Why do I think I have heard of this name, but I can't remember where it came from?"

Tang Xiaofeng was slightly surprised and looked at the others, but found that no matter it was Yan Ziqiong, Lin Shuxiang, Lan Ying, Hongying, Yuying, Qiongying, Xiuying, all had such expressions... It seemed that he had remembered something, but he could not remember anything.

"It's very rare to be ignorant of the past," Master Xuanzang looked at the girls with approval, and said, "Do you know who is the one who made this magic weapon?"

Seeing these beauties thinking about it again, they always felt that they should know who they were, but they couldn't remember it at all. Tang Xiaofeng couldn't help but smile bitterly and looked at Master Xuanzang carefully: "Can they be... Fairy of Flowers?"

Master Xuanzang seemed to have only thought of looking at the young man seriously, but after looking at it, his expression became even more confused. He was a Buddhist master. At first glance, the eight girls in front of him were all reincarnated flower gods. It would be fine if they couldn't remember the events of their previous lives, but this young man was not a flower god, and he could not see any strange origins. Why did he guess it?

Master Xuanzang looked at Tang Xiaofeng in surprise: "Where did the little donor come from?"

Tang Xiaofeng said: "Lingnan."

Master Xuanzang said: "Where did the little donor come from?"

Tang Xiaofeng said: "I won't say it's Lingnan?"

Master Xuanzang said: "Where did the little donor come from?"

Tang Xiaofeng: "..." Alas, it's so tiring to talk to the bald donkey.

He smiled and said, "Don't matter where I came from, let's continue to talk about the magic weapon. Are you saying that the Brahmin girl was a close friend of the Baihua Fairy before she became Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva? At that time, in order to save her mother, she went to ask the Baihua Fairy for help. The Baihua Fairy made a magic weapon for her. This magic weapon is the ancient and modern era of Ruyi Hang, which is the fertile glass bead that Monk Bianji wanted?"

Master Xuanzang said: "The little donor will be wise as soon as he hears it, and he will be smart."

Tang Xiaofeng rolled his eyes... Only fools can't understand, right?

However, my sister was actually related to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who dominated the sixth day of ghosts and gods and the twenty-fourth grade hell, which really surprised him. After all, one of them is the fairy of Yaochi and the other is the Bodhisattva of Buddhism. It is logical that there should not be any intersection.

He asked: "Then what is the use of this ancient and modern reversal of Ruyi?"

Master Xuanzang said: "As the name suggests, ancient and modern times are reversed, good and evil are reversed, misfortune is reversed, right and wrong are reversed, and karma is so great that it is impossible to avoid and cannot escape, but the fairy of the Hundred Flowers created this ancient and modern rebellious deed for the Brahmin girl with her amazing wisdom. As long as the Brahmin girl brings this Ruhmin girl to save her mother, she can be defeated and rescued her mother from the Abyssal Hell. But the power of this treasure is too great, although the Brahmin girl brings

With it, she did not dare to use it too much. She only used this treasure to move all the evil causes of her mother to herself. Although she saved her mother from the sea of ​​suffering, she herself suffered all the sufferings on behalf of her mother. However, she was still compassionate. Even in the Hell of the Avici, she would always save those evil souls and evil spirits that were originally irrescue, moved the heaven and earth, and eventually became a Bodhisattva, and gave up the great vow of "hell is not empty, and she will not become a Buddha" to achieve Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

Lin Shuxiang said: "No wonder, when the little girl read Buddhist scriptures before, she couldn't help but wonder that Buddhism has always paid attention to cause and effect, and the causes she planted must be repaid to herself. Why can the Brahmin girl receive it on her behalf? But it turns out that she actually borrowed such magic weapons."

Master Xuanzang said: "Although the Brahmin girl has this magic weapon, she knows that once the karma is changed, she is afraid that the whole world will be in chaos, so she dare not use it. She dare not really betray the disaster, nor dare to eliminate the evil causes her mother had planted in the past. She is just a hell of sacrifice and has suffered on behalf of her mother. Buddhism has always paid attention to self-sacrificing oneself and saving others. She has suffered all the sufferings on behalf of her mother, which is in line with the compassionate heart of my Buddha, and can achieve Bodhisattvas. However, Bian Ji wants to use this ancient and modern reverse rebellion to reverse cause and effect, first create countless evil causes, then accumulate countless good rewards to become a Buddha. If he has attained the Buddha's body in this way, he is afraid that all the Mahayana doctrines will be disintegrated."

Tang Xiaofeng was shocked: "My sister...hehe, how could Fairy Baihua create such a magic weapon?"

Master Xuanzang said: "The Queen Mother of the West gets the qi of the Taiyin of the West, and the Taoist Dharma is infinite. Although the fairy of the Flowers is not as good as the Queen Mother of the West, she has the mysterious energy of all the flowers and flowers to become a fairy. In addition, there are cause and effect between flowers, plants and trees. When there are flowers, Nuwa has never created a human being. What's so strange about her having such skills? Moreover, in ancient times, Buddhism emphasized the retribution of cause and effect, but the heavens only had great supernatural powers. Although the two paths of immortals and Buddhas did not fight each other, they did not like each other.

Although it was for the sake of friends, it also meant to cause trouble for the Buddhas in the West. As for the creation of the two paths of gods and ghosts in the heavenly realm, it also transplanted the "Six Hells" that were originally only available in Xiniu Hezhou, and created the underworld and the twenty-fourth grade hell, which was later. Now, even the heavenly realm has begun to pay attention to cause and effect. Ksitigarbha and the Ten Palaces of Yamaru together in the underworld. If you ask the Fairy of Flowers to create such things, I am afraid she will not dare to do it anymore."

Yan Ziqiong was chivalrous and said loudly: "It is his business to Bian Ji want to become a Buddha or to prove anything, but he imprisoned those innocent souls here and suffered those three misfortunes and five sufferings, isn't that too much?"

Master Xuanzang sighed and looked at her and said, "Since the female donor has this intention, why not do chivalrous things and save those countless unjust souls to make good connections?"

Tang Xiaofeng thought it was bad, she would definitely agree immediately. Seeing that she opened her mouth to answer, she couldn't help but pounce on her and wanted to cover her mouth, but she heard Ziqiong Yan smiled slightly: "What are the benefits of me?"

Tang Xiaofeng fell to the ground with a "bang".

Ziqiong Yan looked down at him: "What are you doing?"

He got up embarrassedly... If Sister Zixiao had agreed here, she would have thought of any benefits? It seems that the female hero is still different from the female hero. No wonder in the book, Sister Zixiao is nicknamed "Female Hero", but this girl is a "parrot tongue".

He looked at Master Xuanzang and smiled: "Miss Yan asked correctly, what are the benefits of us?"

Yang Moxiang shouted: "Is it better to save people?"

Tang Xiaofeng glared at her: "Master, don't interrupt me, maid."

Master Xuanzang said: "Amitabha, Amitabha, why don't you think about it? Saving these many unjust souls from the sea of ​​suffering. This is a great merit. The so-called good will be rewarded, and evil will be rewarded..."

"Don't say this," Tang Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, "This cause and effect will not be rewarded in this life and the next life, and there is no meaning at all. I just want to have good rewards in this life. Will you fall into hell in the next life? Let's talk about it in the next life."

"Will you get good rewards in this life?" Master Xuanzang suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes showed his spirit, and he glanced at everyone present, saying, "What a pity, what a pity."

Tang Xiaofeng said: "What a pity?"

Master Xuanzang sighed: "Don't be beautiful and have a young man in the world, who can tell the truth about the lack of life on the seat?"

Tang Xiaofeng was stunned... These were two sentences in the book that his sister saw on the Tianlist.

Don’t be too beautiful to say that there is no one in the world, but no one can say that there is no one in the seat... According to the plot in the book, the beauties present, including Yan Ziqiong, are all people with no one in the life.

Has their fate not changed yet?

Master Xuanzang looked at him and said, "This little donor has a strange fate. He can't see the cause and effect of his previous life at all, and it's like he doesn't have the previous life. However, although he can't see the cause planted in his previous life, his bones are clear and unique, and he will be a person with great blessings in this life. In the future, there will be a lot of wives and concubines, and his wife is virtuous and filial sons are not a problem. But these girls...ah."

He shook his head and sighed.

Ziqiong Yan smiled and said, "Master, don't scare us with such words."
To be continued...
