Chapter 2636: Wordless Scriptures

When they arrived at the Daxiong Palace, they presented the certificates of customs clearance. The Tathagata saw them one by one, handed them to Shen Long, and said, "Your eastern land is Nanfangbuzhou. , more adulterous, more deceitful, more deceitful and more deceitful; do not follow Buddhism, do not seek good fortune, do not respect the Three Lights, do not value the five grains; , created boundless crimes, full of sins and evils, resulting in the calamity of hell, so fell into the nether world forever, suffered the pain of many pestles, and transformed into animals; there were many shapes with hair and horns, and repaid the debts with their bodies, Feed meat to people, they will fall into Abi forever, and they will not be able to ascend, this is the reason."

"Although Confucius taught the teachings of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, and emperors successively punished those who were punished by strangling and beheading, it is like ignorant and ignorant people who indulge unscrupulous people! Now I have the Tripitaka, which can transcend suffering and explain Misfortune; Tripitaka: There is a collection of Dharma, which talks about the sky; there is a collection of teachings, which talks about the earth; there is a collection of scriptures, which saves ghosts; there are thirty-five volumes in total, and it should be 15,144 volumes."

"It's really the path of cultivation, the door of righteousness, all the astronomy, geography, human beings, birds and beasts, flowers and trees, utensils, and human affairs of the four major continents of the world. Everything is included; when you come from afar, I will give you all and take it away. But the people there are stupid and strong, slandering the truth, and don’t know the mystery of my monk.” The Tathagata spoke a lot, and then asked Ananda Kassapa to fetch the scriptures.

Unexpectedly, Shen Long would have been displeased with hearing it for a long time. Although there are many problems in my Tang Dynasty, the life of the people under my rule is much better than most countries on the westbound road. I don’t know how the Tathagata has the face to say this. talk.

So he opened his mouth and said, "I have something that I don't understand, and I still hope that the Buddha will explain it; the Eastern Land used to respect Buddhism, and there were four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but at that time the people were living in extreme hardship. Although he did not respect Buddhism as much as he did in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, most of the people under his rule can live and work in peace and contentment, why is that?"

"My disciple traveled westward all the way, and he had never seen a few monsters in the Tang Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the closer he was to Lingshan, the monsters would increase in number and become more ferocious, so that monsters from the Lion and Camel Kingdom appeared and devoured the people of a country. What a tragedy! I don’t know, did the Buddha not see these things, or did he not care about them?” Shen Long’s tone became colder and colder.

And the faces of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Daxiong Palace are getting darker and darker, Shen Long is slapping them in the face! Then Manjusri Puxian was about to speak out to reprimand Shen Long, both of their cars were smashed by Shen Long, and they had long held back their anger.

The Tathagata said, "Xuanzang, you were my second disciple in the previous life, and you were called a golden cicada; because you didn't listen to the Dharma and despised my great teaching, you demoted your true spirit and reincarnated in the Eastern Land; now it seems , You are still obsessed with your obsession, how sad and deplorable!" Tathagata is actually very popular, but the journey to the west has been completed 80 to 90% now, and they only need to send the scriptures to Datang to complete the work. At this time, Tathagata does not want to Out of season.

Therefore, he pretended that he didn't hear what Shen Long said, and went around lightly, "The Nanzhan Buzhou Dongtu Tang Dynasty looks like a lot of flowers on the surface, but in fact it's just flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water. I don't know My Buddhist scriptures will not lead to liberation in the end, if you want to find out the root cause, you need to read more Buddhist scriptures."

After speaking, he greeted, "Anuo and Jiaye, you two lead his five people to the bottom of Zhenlou, and treat him with fast food first; In the department, each retrieve a few volumes with him, and teach him to pass on the Eastern Land and pour out the great grace forever." The two venerables followed the Buddha's order and led his five people to the downstairs, where they could not see all the rare treasures, and arranged them endless.

As soon as the five of them left, the Daxiong Palace was in chaos, with all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas insisting on their own opinions. It is hard to say whether the plan of Journey to the West can be completed now.

The two venerables accompanied Shen Long and the others after the fast meal,

But when he entered the treasure pavilion, he opened the door and looked at it. On the sutra cabinet and outside the treasure box, red stickers were pasted, and the titles of the scriptures were written in regular script, such as "Nirvana Sutra", "Bodhisattva Sutra", "Void Tibetan Sutra", "Shoushurangama Sutra" , "Avatamsaka Sutra" and so on are so vast that it may be difficult for ordinary monks to read these scriptures in their lifetime, let alone understand them.

"Master, there are so many Buddhist scriptures, which one should I wait for?" Sun Wukong and the others looked dazed.

Shen Long said with a smile, "When I was in the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Land, I heard it: the great way is as simple as it is; I also heard: one sentence is true, but thousands of volumes of books are false; among these many Buddhist scriptures, I don't know how many true words there are!"

Anuo and Jiaye's complexions were as black as the bottom of a pot, and they said impatiently, "The holy monk Dongtu is here, what personnel do you have for us? Take it out quickly, so that I can pass on the scriptures to you."

So openly asking for bribes? This is too awesome, right? Shen Long said with a sneer, "Disciple Xuanzang has come a long way, and he was never prepared."

The two venerables said with a smile, "Okay, okay, okay! If the scriptures are passed down from hand to hand, future generations will starve to death!"

They refused to pass on the scriptures, which met Shen Long's wish, so he said, "If that's the case, I'll just go back to the Eastland empty-handed."

A Nuo suddenly became anxious, how dare he let them go? So he hurriedly said, "Don't shout! What is this place, you are still playing wild! Come here and continue the scriptures." So he took out a volume of scriptures, Bajie Drifting took them and put them in his bag, and carried them on the horse. Two more loads were tied, and Bajie and Drifting carried them.

Shen Long knew in his heart that this was a scripture without words, but he didn't say anything, wishing he could take these back to the Tang Dynasty, bid farewell to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas one by one after packing up the scriptures, and go down the mountain without saying a word.

Ananda Kassapa did not hide the ancient Buddha's actions, he was secretly annoyed, such an important matter, you dare to obstruct it? So he called his venerable Bai Xiong, and asked him to take away the scripture without words, and told Shen Long to wait for the scripture with words.

The Venerable Bai Xiong rode the strong wind and rolled away from the gate of Leiyin Temple, stretched out a hand from mid-air with great power, and gently snatched the scriptures carried by the horse.

However, Shen Long had already told Sun Wukong, and upon seeing this, Sun Wukong immediately jumped up to block the giant hand, and swung the golden cudgel to hit him. The Venerable Bai Xiong, seeing that Sun Wukong was attacking swiftly, was afraid that his stick would have no eyes, so he couldn't stop for a while. Regardless of good or bad, he injured his body, immediately retreated and fled back to the ancient Buddha.

Sun Wukong came back and said angrily, "It must be that Ananda Kassapa sent people to make trouble because he saw that I would not wait for others. My old grandson will go back and make a clear distinction with them!"

"It's not too late to talk about this matter in the future! Now it's better to return to the Eastern Land Tang!" Shen Long was not excited, and someone would beg me to go back later.

After Venerable Bai Xiong went back, the ancient Buddha Dieng Deng fell into distress, what should he do now? Is it necessary to send someone to invite them back again?
