Take the system to break into the dragon

Because the gods have long lifespans, they can just stay in seclusion for decades or hundreds of years. No one wants to cause trouble all day long, so most of the time they are indifferent.

After Medicine Master Tathagata left, the Xiaoyao Sect returned to its previous state.

Play cards when it's time to play cards, and play mahjong when it's time to play mahjong.

No one is forcing anyone to practice, but there are some people who like to practice, so they can find a quiet room to practice by themselves.

In a daze, more than a hundred years passed.

On this day, a disciple suddenly came to report that the Venerable Seven Buddhas Nanti of Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan, Xitian, had arrived.

Zhang Xiaofan stood up and walked to the entrance of the main hall. Su Xinghe had already led a middle-aged monk forward.

Seven Buddhas are difficult to mention

Level:71

Belong to: Buddhism

Note: The 85th statue of the Five Hundred Arhats.

...

Zhang Xiaofan led the Seven Buddhas Nanti Venerable into the hall and seated the guests and hosts separately.

"I don't know what you can teach me when you come here?" Zhang Xiaofan asked.

The Venerable Seven Buddhas Nanti put his palms together and said: "Amitabha, I, the Tathagata, are going to hold an Obon gathering on the Hungry Ghost Festival, and I have specially sent a poor monk to invite Master Zhang to go to Lingshan Mountain."

Zhang Xiaofan said: "I will go to such a grand event. Please tell Tathagata Buddha that Zhang Xiaofan will definitely be there during the Ghost Festival."

The Venerable Seven Buddhas Nanti said: "In that case, the poor monk will not bother you anymore."

But he came quickly and left quickly. He left the invitation and left.

With Zhang Xiaofan's cultivation as Da Luo Jinxian, Da Luo Jinxian's peak combat power, and being the leader of a faction, it is normal for him to be invited.

There are still more than 300 years before the journey to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures. So it seems that the time when Jin Chanzi was demoted was during the Bon Bon Festival.

In his previous life, Zhang Xiaofan had always been curious about the specific details of Jin Chanzi's demotion. Sun Wukong once explained to Zhu Bajie that he said that Jin Chanzi despised Buddhism, dozed off during the Tathagata's sermon, and dropped a grain of rice on the ground, so he was demoted to earth.

But in Zhang Xiaofan's opinion, this is a bit too willful.

The second disciple of the mighty Tathagata Buddha was demoted to the mortal world for such an unknown reason and was reincarnated for ten lives before he could return to Buddhism.

This kind of punishment is too severe.

Some people say that the purpose of fining Cicada to go down to the next world was to make him take on the important task of traveling westward to learn Buddhist scriptures.

Then at least find a more reliable reason.

When Zhang Xiaofan read the original work of Journey to the West in his previous life, he found one detail that was very thought-provoking.

At that time, Tang Monk was caught by a golden-nosed white-haired mouse spirit in the bottomless cave of Shengkong Mountain, and they wanted to force him to come to the church to get married. In order to save Tang Monk, Sun Wukong turned into a small insect and got into the mouse spirit's belly. The mouse spirit had no choice but to say something:

"In my previous life, the front edge was tied with a red rope, and the fish and water signs harmonized the two minds. Unexpectedly, the mandarin ducks and phoenixes broke up now. How could the phoenix and the phoenix be reunited? It is difficult to accomplish anything when the water rises in the blue bridge, and the Buddhist temples are filled with smoke and the gatherings are empty. It is a good idea to say goodbye now,

When will we see you again!"

This passage is very thought-provoking.

The golden-nosed white-haired rat spirit is different from other fairies in that she also came from the Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan.

This golden-nosed white-haired rat spirit once stole the fragrant flowers and candles from the Great Leiyin Temple. After the Tathagata Buddha found out, he asked Li Jing, the king of the pagoda, and his son to capture her.

And when Li Jing caught her, Nezha said something very interesting: "When caught, she should be beaten to death. The Tathagata said: If you raise fish in accumulated water, you will never catch it. If you feed deer in the mountains and hope for immortality, let her go."

His life."

The time when she stole the fragrant flowers and treasure candles, and the time when Jin Chanzi was demoted, were both three hundred years ago when she traveled west to seek Buddhist scriptures.

It's a coincidence in time, and they come from the same place.

Before contacting me again, Jin Chanzi lost a grain of rice while listening to Tathagata's sermon.

Why did the golden cicada drop a grain of rice?

Golden cicada is not Zhu Bajie, it is delicious and lazy to cook.

Tathagata Buddha is preaching, and he is eating below?

If you are eating, why do you doze off?

I'm totally sorry for coming.

So who dropped this grain of rice?

If we add the matter of the rat spirit stealing fragrant flowers and precious candles, it is very possible that even the rice was dropped by the rat spirit.

And this rat spirit is probably on Jin Chanzi's body, or even hidden in his sleeves.

Then everything will be explained.

A female mouse that had eaten a fragrant flower and precious candle was hidden by the golden cicada. Later, when the Tathagata was giving a sermon, the mouse was eating rice again and fell out of the golden cicada's sleeve without being hugged.

Isn't this a slap in the face of Buddha?

The second disciple of the mighty Tathagata Buddha actually protected a goblin and ate it.

And it was when the Buddha was giving sermons.

It is understandable that Tathagata Buddha demoted the golden cicada to the mortal world.

As for whether these two are romantically involved, it's hard to say.

It's possible that Jin Chanzi was just a good-natured person and discovered that the mouse was eating fragrant flowers and candles at the Bon Festival. He was afraid that she would be caught and punished, so he hid her in his sleeves.

Later, the mouse secretly ate rice while Tathagata was giving a sermon and dropped a grain of rice. This caused Jin Chanzi to be demoted.

And this rat spirit was probably let go by Tathagata Buddha because Jin Chanzi interceded for her.

Of course, all this is just Zhang Xiaofan's guess. We have to go to the Bon Bon Festival to find out the truth.

Soon, it was July 15th, the Hungry Ghost Festival.

Xitianling Mountain, Daleiyin Temple.

Zhang Xiaofan took out the invitation, and a visiting monk came in because of him.

The Bon Festival is a major event in Buddhism.

Using Buddhist teachings to make offerings to the Three Jewels and perform deeds of salvation is an important event to promote the great Dharma of Buddhism and save the world.

In the important place of Buddhism, Daleiyin Temple, this grand event is held every five hundred years.

Gods and immortals from all walks of life are invited to gather here together, and by the way, they can show the grand scene of Western Buddhism to the ancient world.

Zhang Xiaofan is the Great Luo Jinxian and the leader of another sect, and his position is relatively high in the ranking.

Barefoot Immortal, Zhenwu Emperor and others are all his close neighbors.

After everyone had arrived, Zhang Xiaofan silently used the system to check the levels of the long-standing immortals in front of him.

Zhen Yuanzi

Level:97

Belong to: Wuzhuang Temple

...

As expected, he is worthy of being the ancestor of the Earth Immortal, and is actually a level 97 boss.

The highest level that Zhang Xiaofan has explored so far.

Gou Chen Shanggong Emperor

Level:90

Belongs to: Heaven

...

Antarctic Immortal Emperor

Level:90

Belong to: Heaven, Taoism

...

Two of the four emperors of heaven came, but Emperor Zhongtian Ziwei and Beiji Emperor and Empress Houtu did not come.

Emperor Ziwei is in charge of Zhoutian Xingdou, and Empress Houtu has been staying in the underworld. It makes sense for them two not to come.

Eastern Qing Emperor

Level:90

Belongs to: Heaven

...

Southern Red Emperor

Level:90

Belongs to: Heaven

...

White Emperor of the West

Level:90

Belongs to: Heaven

...

Guangchengzi

Level:86

Belong to: Taoism

...

Three of the five elders from the five directions also came.

The Central Yellow Emperor is the head of the Five Emperors and also belongs to the Three Holy Emperors of Huoyun Cave. He has been repairing in Huoyun Cave and has never come here.

The Black Emperor of the North has been stationed at Beiju Luzhou all year round to avoid trouble, so he never came.

Two of the four emperors and three of the five elders of the five directions are all at the peak of Daluo Jinxian, and they are probably one step short of being a quasi-sage.

Zhang Xiaofan estimated that Empress Houtu was originally one of the twelve ancestral witches, and she should be a quasi-sage.

Xuanyuan Huangdi of Huoyundong is one of the three holy emperors. He enjoys the fate of the human race and is probably in the quasi-sage realm.

From this point of view, even if there is no saint, in terms of combat power alone, Zhang Xiaofan is already one of the few in the world.

Of course, most of those who came at this time were Heavenly Court and Buddhist forces, as well as some long-standing immortals.

Nowadays, Jiejiao no longer exists, and Renjiao and Chanjiao are unified into one, collectively known as Taoism.

In the past, among the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao, only Guangchengzi came.

It seems that the people in Chanjiao have not let go of the grudges of the past. Now Guangchengzi is in charge of Taoist foreign affairs. If he didn't have to come, he probably wouldn't come.

Zhang Xiaofan continued to investigate and found out the levels of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva and others one by one.

Most of them are between level 84 and 86, the middle stage of Daluo Jinxian.

Guanshiyin Bodhisattva is level 86, which is equivalent to Guangchengzi’s cultivation level.

Back then, Guangchengzi was the first among the Twelve Golden Immortals, with the highest cultivation level.

Now that I am being chased by my former junior sister, I don’t know what to think.

From this point of view, this Buddhist method is unique.

Zhang Xiaofan looked around and found that he did not see the ancient Buddha Lantern Buddha in the past or Maitreya Buddha the future Buddha. Only the Tathagata Buddha the present Buddha was present.

Soon, Zhang Xiaofan discovered another person.

Jin Chanzi

Level:80

Belong to: Buddhism

...

Golden-nosed white-haired mouse spirit

Level:72

Attribution: None

...

This Jin Chanzi is actually at the pinnacle of Taiyi Golden Immortal's cultivation, which is comparable to that of Yang Jian.

And as expected, this rat spirit is in Jin Chanzi, and he actually has the Taiyi realm.

This golden cicada looks like a young monk, with a fair complexion and clear eyes. He has a good appearance. No wonder he can charm all the female fairies on the way west.

As the second disciple of Tathagata Buddha, Jin Chanzi entertained the guests together with his senior brother Moko Kassapa today.

Moko Kasyapa himself entertained the four emperors of heaven, the five elders of the five directions and other people with orthodox clergy, and asked Jin Chanzi to entertain a group of immortals headed by Zhen Yuanzi.

Jin Chanzi prepared fairy tea with his own hands and served it to all the fairy families.

The first person to be enshrined was the Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi.

This is probably why when Tang Monk passed by Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi asked his apprentice to give Tang Monk two ginseng fruits to eat.

Jin Chanzi was a humble and polite person, serving tea to each of them, and soon arrived at Zhang Xiaofan's place.

"Thank you, elder Jin Chanzi." Others just smiled and nodded, while Zhang Xiaofan took the fairy tea with both hands and said a few words to Jin Chanzi.

Jin Chanzi paused, nodded with a smile, and continued to serve tea with others.

After the fairy tea was served one by one, Tathagata Buddha announced the start of the Bon Festival.

First, he talked about the capture of the demon monkey Sun Wukong in the Heavenly Court and the convening of the Antiian Conference in the Heavenly Court. This matter is considered a new thing that happened recently to the immortals and gods.

Then Tathagata Buddha preached another Dharma, and flowers fell from the sky and golden lotuses surged from the ground.

However, when Zhang Xiaofan compared these Buddhist teachings with what he had learned, he found that most of them were just vague and vague avenues, but not many were truly practical.

On the contrary, it is not as useful as this fairy tea.

After all, the immortal tea prepared by Jin Chanzi himself, with some immortal ingredients added to it, could actually increase millions of experience points.

But this Tathagata Buddha, a quasi-sage, has nothing to say.

Of course, what he said is still of some use to Buddhist disciples.

But it is only limited to those below the Da Luo realm.

In Zhang Xiaofan's opinion, what he said was not as good as what he said in Xiaoyao Sect.

Some cards do not match their quasi-holy status.

But after all, he was here to eat and drink for free, so Zhang Xiaofan couldn't say much.

The only advantage is that after receiving a cup of tea from Jin Chanzi, it will be easier to join the journey to the West in the future.
