This is Fengshen, what's the use of hard work

Chapter 364 Sutra Learner, Sutra Protector

Western Paradise.

Zhunti kept reciting Buddhist scriptures to free his mind from the shadow of fate. He smiled and said, "Since King Shang agrees, let's start. I don't know King Shang, but is there a suitable candidate?" "

"If you don't have any, the poor monk can give King Shang a chance to reincarnate your eastern natives to our west."

"I'm afraid that I, the Westerners, won't understand the Eastern language."

Jieyin Zhunti looked at each other and smiled.

Since the opening of the Tongtian Port at Chentangguan, the Western Immortals have won over many big merchant families in Chentangguan.

Wanting to persuade a human race from the east to come to the west, but in a single thought, there is no difficulty.

Not to mention one, even a team of Buddhist scriptures can find it.

But Xitu has always been isolated from the world, except for Pingxin who controls the life and death of the Xitu people through the six realms of reincarnation, Xitu has almost no contact with the outside world.

Zishou's methods are clever, no matter how sophisticated his calculations are, it is impossible for him to intervene in Xitu before the reunification of Kyushu.

What's more, the entire western continent is under the high-handed rule of many kingdoms of God. People who have no faith are all branded as sinners, and they are displaced under the pursuit of the kingdom of God.

Even if he intervenes sincerely and helps Di Xin, there will be no disturbance.

At this time, the voices of the two western sages and Zishou were not sent by divine consciousness, but communicated through the outer sky, so the great supernatural beings among the gods and immortals could hear them.

Although their cultivation base is not low, their knowledge is extraordinary, and they have practiced for countless years, but this is the first time they have personally experienced the game between saints.

Although Di Xin is not a saint, no one dares to say that he is not as good as a saint.

Even, in the eyes of some great supernatural beings, Di Xin's strength has already surpassed that of saints.

After all, it is difficult for a saint to resist the real punishment of heaven.

However, Di Xin personally defeated the punishment of heaven, and under the luck of heaven, regained the territory of the fairyland on earth.

Even the Three Emperors and Five Emperors can only rule the world with the help of saints.

But Zishou did what the Three Emperors and Five Emperors could not do.

At this time, Di Xin, who ruled Kyushu, had long been able to rank alongside the leader of the great sect in their hearts, and was qualified to be among the true saints.

When the gods and demons invaded, the strength of Kyushu impressed the Sanxian of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths even more.

Among them, the most impressive one is undoubtedly the Dragon King of the Three Seas.

at this time.

East China Sea Dragon Palace.

The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas are gathering together.

Ever since they took the position of Dragon King millions of years ago, they rarely get together.

After all, the position of the Dragon Clan in Honghuang is very embarrassing.

Although there are no strong people in the Dragon Clan, the saints will notice any changes in the Dragon Clan, and if something goes wrong, they will be punished.

After all, they carried the calamity of the Long Han Chu Jie on their backs.

But now, they are fearless.

Because the saints are already too busy to take care of themselves, so there is no way to care about them.

If the prehistoric gods can't find a way to break the situation, after 500 years, everyone will die together.

In the Crystal Palace.

The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas sat together on a coral table drinking wine.

The Dragon King of Beihai didn't know whether he drank too much wine or just had a big tongue, so he said vaguely:
"Brother Ao Guang, let your eldest niece find a chance, and then tell the king that we are sincerely submitting to the human race, and this heart is truer than the pearls of Gada in the East China Sea!"

"It was the first time that the king laid a memorial ceremony in Kyushu, and he only brought two eldest nieces with him, which shows how much he attaches importance to them."

"Agreement or disagreement is not in the mouth of the eldest niece."

The Dragon King of the West Sea gulped down the fine wine of the East China Sea in the glass cup, his face was slightly drunk, and his eyes were full of bitterness.

He looked hopeless and said, "Brother Ao Guang, among the four of us, you have the highest qualifications, the oldest age, and the most courageous. I am convinced, brother!"

"At the beginning, after you surrendered to the Great Merchant, for some reason, all the saints found me."

"My brother still remembers that day, where is the Dragon King of the West Sea? It scares me, brother. I still have lingering fears about the word 'where is'."

The Dragon King of the East China Sea was taken aback, and said, "Where is it?"

Dragon King of the West Sea: ...

He silently raised his head and looked at Ao Guang, and then the hand holding the wine glass began to tremble continuously, even if the other hand held him, it was useless, the trembling continued, and the wine spilled out.

Ao Guang was stunned, sighed, and said: "Brother, I have suffered."

The Dragon King of the West Sea was about to cry, and drank the wine in his hand tremblingly.

The Dragon King of the South China Sea has been looking out of the sea, and his spiritual consciousness is paying attention to this destined extraordinary dialogue between heaven and earth.

When he heard Zishou and Zhun's proposal to learn from the scriptures and seek the Tao, he said, "Brother Ao Guang, it's not that we don't want to give up the next life. The doom in the blood of the dragon clan has long been turned into a blood curse, imprisoning the cultivators of the dragon clan." Why. Even if we have the luck of the dragon clan, we can only stop Taiyi Jinxian. Now, the cultivation base of the two eldest nieces has already surpassed that of our uncles."

"If things go on like this, what if our dragon clan in Sanhai can reincarnate?"

"We are worried... In case we make an oath and use the eternal life reincarnation to ward off the catastrophe, the king does not agree to include the three seas into the Kyushu... We, the three sea dragons, may not even have the power to protect ourselves. We If there is no reincarnation after death, I am afraid that the Dragon Clan of the Three Seas will be gone."

After the Dragon King of the South China Sea finished speaking, the two Dragon Kings of Beihai and Xihai agreed one after another. This was also what they were worried about.

After all, once this kind of oath of heaven is made, there is no possibility of turning around.

Ao Guang has been drunk by the three dragon kings these days. If he hadn't raised his cultivation base after breaking the calamity of the Dragon Han Dynasty, he might not be able to stand up to the three old dragons taking turns.

He sighed, and said: "Brothers, I have broken my dragon's mouth, but you still can't listen. It's hard for you, and so is the king. After all, the ancient killings and calamities on the dragons of the Three Seas are extremely fierce. Once they are included in the human race Among them, it is very likely that the Kyushu luck that has just been rebuilt will be destroyed."

"Your Majesty has worked hard for more than ten years and endured untold hardships to rule the world. He dare not take this risk."

After the Dragon King of the East China Sea finished speaking, the Dragon King of the Three Seas was immediately displeased.

Ao Run, Dragon King of the West Sea, said: "Brother Ao Guangda, you don't trust us! After all, we are a sea dragon king, how can we make fun of such a thing?"

Ao Guang took a sip of the ten-thousand-year-old Donghai wine in his mouth, sighed and said: "Brother, our status is still much worse than that of the king, don't you also distrust him?"

The Dragon King of Three Seas suddenly stopped talking, and shook his head helplessly.

This is a knot.

After drinking for three rounds, the Dragon King of East China Sea glanced at the three Dragon Kings and said suddenly:

"Actually, it's not impossible."

"This time, the two sages of the west and the king are playing against each other in a chess game between Kyushu and Xitu. This is an opportunity for meritorious service."

"I can give you an idea."

The Dragon King of the Three Seas was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking: "What does the game between the king and the saint have to do with our return to the human world?"

Ao Guang smiled and said:
"The west seeks the Tao from the east, and the east seeks the scriptures from the west. Among them, ninety-nine or eighty-one difficulties are your chances."

"Three, the 81 disasters have not been decided at this time, why can't helping the Dragon Clan break the killing robbery be one of the disasters?"

After Ao Guang finished speaking, the Dragon King of the Three Seas couldn't help but widen his eyes, suddenly startled, the three dragons looked at each other, and suddenly realized!

This plan is great!

If the Buddhist scriptures help them break the robbery, everyone will be happy!

If the people who learned the scriptures died in this difficulty, they can also make a contribution and gain the trust of the king.

The Dragon King of the Three Seas immediately got up, held up the wine glass in his hand, and toasted together:
"Brother Ao Guang, at this moment, my brother's wealth and fate are at stake, and I hope that my brother will speak in front of the king and help us fight for the chance of disaster!"

Ao Guang smiled and said: "It's easy to talk about. However, the king and the saint still have an agreement on the rules. Let's wait."

The Dragon King of Three Seas nodded, then sat down, drinking and talking together, but the sadness on his face disappeared.

at this time.

Zishou was lying in the Shouxian Palace, leisurely enjoying Tu Shanjiu'er's craftsmanship. When he heard Zhunti's proposal, he smiled slightly and said:
"There is no need to worry about saints. If I can't even persuade a human race seeking Taoism in the east, then I will just admit defeat."

"The two saints should prepare more spiritual roots of magic treasures, so as not to lose the bodhi tree to me when the time comes."

Zhunti's face was livid, he snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph, it's not certain who will win. However, before that, does the King of Shang have to set the rules for the 81 difficulty?"

"If a mortal learns from the scriptures, the ordeals he experiences can only be the ordeals of the mortal world. However, the ordeals in the mortal world cannot reveal the subtlety of my Buddhism. Why don't we just find someone who is a practitioner, so that the world can see the Three Vehicles Dafa. "

Zishou chuckled and said:
"Do you two have the ability to convince me that the enlightened people in the east will travel west to learn scriptures?"

"Besides, those who have realized the Tao have already realized the principles of my world. If you go to your western land to learn scriptures, wouldn't you climb a tree to catch fish?"

Jieyin Zhunti looked at each other, although he was not angry, he also knew that what Zishou said made sense.

Let the practitioner go to learn the scriptures, even if he has survived ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships, the gods will only say that the practitioner's own Taoism is profound and has nothing to do with Buddhism.

The two thought it was the only way to do this, but they heard Zishou's voice.

"However, there is no way to have the best of both worlds."

"Although people are mortals, they can arrange a few practitioners to be sutra protectors. In this way, it is not impossible to arrange some demons and ghosts."

After Zishou's voice fell, Zhunti's eyes lit up!
Sutra takers, sutra protectors, there are takers and protectors, what a good idea!
It can not only show the yearning of the Eastern Tu people for Buddhism, but also prove the strength of Buddhist monks, it can kill two birds with one stone!
However, the light in Zhunti's eyes flickered for a moment, then suddenly he frowned and fell into deep thought.

At this moment, he only felt a boundless shadow shrouded from the long river of fate, covering his Buddhist golden body in the shadow.

In his heart, that feeling resurfaced again.

He always felt an inexplicable joy when he heard Zi Shou's words, as if it was right for him.

Zhunti looked at Jieyin, frowned in thought, and said:
"Senior brother, it was you and I who first proposed to learn from Dongtu and preach this time, right?"

"Obviously we used the prehistoric disaster as an excuse to persuade Di Xin to communicate with Buddhism and take the opportunity to spread the word to the East..."

"Why in the end, it seems that he is arranging everything, as if he has already prepared."

"He peeped at fate so unscrupulously, isn't he afraid of being backlashed by Dao?"

Jieyin sighed and said:
"Since you know that he is likely to see fate, don't pay too much attention to it."

"Do you think that only you can feel the shadow of fate?"

"From the very beginning, the poor Buddha's heart was covered with a layer of dust."

"Spiritual learners, scripture protectors... He is a big businessman who preaches the Tao. How could he come up with such a title?"

"He has definitely peeped into the fate of the world again."

After receiving the introduction, he said calmly:
"But so what?"

"Heavenly Dao Hongjun is in charge of the fate of the world, but he still failed."

"If you believe in fate too much, you will inevitably be backlashed by fate. This time, the more Zishou talks, the deeper he will fall, and the easier it will be to fall into the trap of fate. You and I only need to make a plan for the 81 difficulties , will definitely make him return home in defeat.”

"Ninety-nine and 81 difficulties, every difficulty is an opportunity. If you don't believe me, Zishou can count everything."

"What's more, what if many things can be known in advance?"

"If you can't get through, you just can't get through."

Zhunti heard the words, nodded slightly, said the Buddha's name, and said: "What the brother said makes sense, and the brother is obsessed with it. I just don't know, is there anyone for the sutra taker and the sutra protector?"

Jieyin nodded and said:
"Since the opening of Chentangguan Tongtian Port, our Western religion has also had many industries. There are at least [-] craftsmen in the workshop. These craftsmen, at least [-] people, have already familiarized themselves with the Three Vehicles Dafa."

"At the same time, I also asked the Moonlight Guardian to support many great merchants and scholars in the name of supporting poor disciples. Some of these scholars are outstanding, and they are very outstanding. Among them, several were invited to the Kyushu Unification of Zishou. Grand ceremony, to participate in the Great Merchant Clan State Consultative Conference, you will be granted the status of a member of the council."

"It is said that the Dashang councilors are all heroes of the human race, and they can implement policies for governing the country in various places in Dashang. Their reputation and ability are not low."

"These people are candidates for Buddhist scriptures."

"As for the scripture protectors... I think they are more important than the scripture learners. After all, they are the key to breaking the 81 difficulties."

"The Battle of the Conferred Gods has now come to an end, and it will not start again for the time being. Lei Guang has been lurking in Chaoge for so many years, and it is time to return to his place."

After hearing the words, Zhunti praised: "Lei Guang is indeed an excellent candidate. He has been in Dashang for many years and is very familiar with Dashang. However, his cultivation level is not high. We still need to give him the opportunity to improve his cultivation level."

However, at this moment, Zishou seemed to suddenly think of something, smiled and said:
"Zhunti Hierarch, I think that the cultivation level of the protectors is not easy to be too high. If I let General Kong Xuan protect the way, I am afraid that the saint will not think of 81 difficulties."

"Why don't we just settle under the Golden Immortal?"

"Under the Golden Immortal, if he is not affected by the disaster of the world of mortals, he will be unable to practice at most. It will not hurt to help him improve his realm after learning the scriptures and seeking the Tao."

After Zishou's voice fell, Zhunti's voice stopped abruptly, as if his enlightenment had been interrupted.

He took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "The king of Shang is right. It's exactly the same as what the poor monk thought. It's just that he thought of it a moment earlier than the poor monk."

"In this way, the King of Shang and my Buddha are quite predestined."

"Shang Wang, if you are willing to come to my Western religion, the poor monk is willing to give you the position of the Buddha's mother."

However, after his words fell, Zishou's sneer sounded again in nine days and ten places, regardless of his face.

Zishou hehe said: "I don't like places where filth is hidden."

To mention:  …

He suppressed the anger in his heart for the fifth time in a day, and now he finally understands the feeling of Yuanshi Tianzun...

It's no wonder that Yuanshi issued a sacred metaphor, forbidding his disciples to have any conversation with Zishou.

Really sharp words!
Zhunti said coldly:
"We did this for the sake of Honghuang, and it is a great merit. Why should the King of Shang engage in a verbal dispute?"

"Since the rules for this matter have been established, let's determine the candidates for the sutra learners and sutra protectors."

After Zhunti finished speaking, several holy metaphors were handed down to the world, and each flew to Lingshan, Chentangguan, Chaoge, and several Yixia school palaces.

At this time, a figure appeared behind Zi Shou at some point, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, they really have evil intentions."

Zishou waved his hand and said:

"Let them go, learn from such a dangerous thing, how can it be possible not to die?"

Then, his spiritual thoughts spread to Xitu, and said, "Brother Hong, seeker, are you ready?"
