Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons
Chapter 316 I'm waiting to hear what the Bodhisattva has to say
The two Bodhisattvas were worthy of being two of the four great Bodhisattvas. After hearing Wen Jiao's innuendos and sarcastic remarks, the smiles on their faces remained calm and peaceful.
Manjusri even said in a friendly tone, "What a naughty remark. We came here to bring back our disappointing mounts, the blue lion and the white elephant, and to guide the golden-winged Roc back to the right path."
There are four great Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, namely Manjushri, Guanyin, Samantabhadra and Ksitigarbha. When two great Bodhisattvas of the same level as Guanyin look at you at the same time, the invisible pressure is really hard to bear.
However, Wen Jiao simply turned around lightly, the butterfly pendant on her waist swaying slightly, and with the rhythm of Yu Qingmiao, she easily removed the pressure.
She said in a surprised voice, "The guardian beasts of the two Bodhisattvas? I have never seen them, let alone heard of them. I have only seen a green lion and a big white elephant. The cave was filled with bones like a mountain. The demon had committed countless crimes and was therefore killed. As for the golden-winged Peng bird, I have indeed seen one."
She pointed downwards, "This beast once killed Queen Chiji of Jiadi, who was invaded by an eye demon and died suddenly in anger. Her husband became insane because of this and killed countless people while losing his mind. His daughter Agongcuo was determined to take revenge and practiced hard for five years. Today is the day for her to avenge her parents and redress the injustice for the people. Don't mind if you two laugh at me, I always like to read these stories where the sky is revealed after the thick fog is cleared and good and evil will be rewarded in the end. It's a bit cliché, but it shows the truth that the way of heaven is clear and it does not exist for the sake of Yao or die for the sake of Jie. Just as I was fascinated by it, you two came."
The sun was shining brightly overhead. Manjusri and Samantabhadra were covered in auspicious light, so it was hard to see them clearly. Wen Jiao was pure, without auspicious aura or cloud light, like a beautiful girl from a secular family going out for a walk in spring, at ease and just being a serious person.
She looked directly at the two Bodhisattvas, like a studious child expecting to ask a respected teacher, with a serious look on her face: "Those who can be reformed are naturally people with great virtues and blessings. Even if they are demons, they are just of different types. Their practice and virtues are also admired by people. I think the Dapeng you two Bodhisattvas want to lead must be such a divine bird. I would like to ask the two Bodhisattvas, like the demon below, who has been cut into pieces but still cannot forgive his sins, and whose skin, flesh and bones are all black, is there a single hair on his body that deserves the word "reformed"? "
To destroy the three demons, it would not be difficult to break the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle and divide and conquer them to break their alliance. The real difficulty is what happens after defeating them. One is the private car driver of Manjusri Bodhisattva, the other is the private car driver of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and the last one is even better, he is directly the uncle of Tathagata Buddha.
Pulling out the radish will bring out the mud. You can't kill him. At most, you can pretend that you don't know anything and give him a beating to vent your anger.
Is this the result Wen Jiao wanted? Not for the promise to Queen Chiji, but for the dark years of Jiadi Kingdom, and only for the human corpses hanging like raindrops in the kitchen of Lion Camel Ridge, and the people of Lion Camel Kingdom being eaten by all?
Xuanzang was secretly accompanied by the Six Dings and Six Jias, the Five Jiedis, the Four Guardians, and the Guardian of the Religion, the Jialan. They were called protection, but in reality they were monitoring. Therefore, the Buddhist and Taoist sects knew the dynamics of the pilgrim team very well, and they would always shout "spare the people" when Wukong was about to kill the demons. Therefore, Wen Jiao's plan highlighted the words "fast" and "divide and attack".
The pilgrimage involves the inheritance of the Buddhist sect for the next thousand years, which is extremely important. Therefore, when the Green Lion Demon died alone, Manjusri Bodhisattva was able to endure it in order to avoid disrupting the pilgrimage. But then the White Elephant Demon died under Wukong's stick, and Dapeng escaped and was trapped in the Lion Country. This series of events seemed complicated, but in fact, it was a matter of less than a cup of tea. When the Five Directions Jie Di saw that the situation was not good and went to send a message, and the two Bodhisattvas came to rescue him, Dapeng had already been dealt with in the process.
Naturally, the two Bodhisattvas were indeed great Buddhist powers, and they arrived several steps faster than Wen Jiao had imagined.
But this is not a big deal, because what Wen Jiao wants is not just the death of the three demons.
Death is just a blink of an eye. They didn't even have time to experience the pain or fear, and they wanted to pay off their blood debt? Moreover, they died for the Buddhist plan of obtaining the scriptures. Their death was serious, but they could be resurrected and returned to their original positions with just a little effort. If that was the case, it would be too easy for them.
Manjusri and Samantabhadra looked at each other. Samantabhadra shook his head slightly, feeling that the situation was quite difficult.
At this stage, if Wukong had no choice but to ask for help from the West Heaven, and Lingshan personally subdued Dapeng, then what would happen next? Whatever the Buddhist sect said was true. As the rescued party, Wukong had nothing to say. As for Xuanzang, Bajie, and Sha Seng, who were Wukong's pendants, they naturally had no right to question. But after Wen Jiao's interference, they were actually without a reason.
It was OK for the Green Lion Demon and the White Elephant Demon to die. It would not be difficult to revive and return to their original duties after some work. But Dapeng had a close relationship with the Buddha and could not die. The two of them came here to protect him. But Wen Jiao took the lead and seized the truth, and he became the one who was not right.
Some things are as light as a feather when not weighed, but as heavy as Mount Tai when weighed.
After all, he is Tathagata's uncle, so give him some face? Is this a reasonable reason?
Moreover, the Buddhist sect had long been keeping an eye on Wen Jiao, knowing that although this newborn immortal was young, he was a very ruthless person. When he was still a mortal, he dared to offend Erlang Shen and report him to his dog. Now that he has become an immortal, he naturally dares to report Tathagata's uncle to him.
Directly rob people? Although this has a great chance of winning, but if the news gets out, the two great Bodhisattvas actually teamed up to deal with a female fairy who has only ascended to Taoism for ten years. The Buddhist sect will be laughed at by the Taoist sect for tens of thousands of years.
What if Wen Jiao started to stir up trouble again and became the loyal two Bodhisattvas who fought against the master and disciple of the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Lord and the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Lady, just to protect Tathagata's uncle who had eaten countless people... then her reputation would be even more ruined.
Therefore, the two Bodhisattvas were inclined to settle the matter peacefully. However, Wen Jiao was an expert in quarreling when she was in the mortal world, and her eloquence increased day by day after her ascension. Now she was right, which gave Samantabhadra, who was not good at debate, a headache.
It was Manjusri who spoke first: "Goddess, please stop being angry and listen to me explain the whole story."
Wen Jiao smiled and said, "Please tell me, Bodhisattva."
Although she said this, her eyes were full of teasing, clearly saying: "I'm waiting to hear how you make it up."
Manjusri saw this and shook his head. Although this female fairy had been in heaven for a short time, she was very capable. In just a few years, her followers had spread from the Tang Dynasty to the Wuliang Plateau and then to the Western Regions. Now she was also very popular in India and was a figure that could not be underestimated. Tathagata had already intended to recruit her, so he did not take it as an offense when she repeatedly disrupted his plans. Instead, he ordered many people to spread the word that she was the demon-suppressing goddess given by the Buddha, and it became even more difficult to move her.
Things are different now than they were in the past. After all, he is no longer the Fan Xiu Kun Dao who could be suppressed by just a few words of advice from him when he was in the Wuji Kingdom.
