Chapter 454: Zen Master, I have realized it
Inside Prince Han’s Palace.
In the clean room, the scent of sandalwood wafts upwards. On the table stands a pot of hot tea, the purple clay teapot glowing faintly. From the outer room comes the sound of sutra chanting.
The Zen is infinite.
The monk in the golden cassock and the prince in the brocade robe sat opposite each other.
Looking at the monk's face, it was the Five Dharma Kings of the Demon Sect, the Golden Bodhisattva, who were supposed to be in the Dongjiang Valley. And the prince was naturally the Northern Cold King.
At this time, King Han had a distressed look on his face.
"Master, this is so difficult for me."
"Your Highness, Prince Han, feel free to speak up if you have any doubts in your mind."
Facing the solemn and serious face of the Golden Bodhisattva, King Han opened his heart and confided: "Master, I heard what you said. I stay away from women all day long and cultivate my own Buddha nature. I feel that I am making rapid progress. But recently I feel more and more sad..."
"Just this afternoon, I actually had... that kind of dream. In the dream, I did... that kind of thing. After waking up, I was wet all over..." King Han said with a bitter face, "This is something that hasn't happened to me since I was ten years old."
When the Golden Bodhisattva heard this, a trace of contemplation appeared in his eyes. After a moment, he sighed slightly.
"well……"
Then, he slowly said, "Your Majesty, please pick up the teacup on the table."
"Hmm?" King Han felt a little strange when he heard the Golden Bodhisattva's order, but he still picked up the teacup in front of him with a puzzled look on his face.
The Golden Bodhisattva continued, “Don’t let go.”
King Han nodded slightly.
After saying that, the Golden Bodhisattva picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea into the teacup in King Han's hand, with the sound of water gurgling.
The boiling hot tea was poured into the small cup. King Han was a little worried that the tea would burn him. But then he thought, the Zen master is so wise, how could he burn himself?
Then he got burned.
After the Golden Bodhisattva filled the teacup, he had no intention of stopping and continued to pour water. The overflowing tea naturally fell into the hands of the Cold King, and he had no choice but to let go of the teacup subconsciously without any hesitation.
With a clang, the teacup rolled onto the table, and Prince Han cried out "ouch", and began to blow on his palm, feeling a little angry as he blew. He had been a prince who had been respected by everyone since he was a child, so how could he have suffered such an injustice?
However, his inexplicable respect for the Golden Bodhisattva made him afraid to act rashly.
After a pause, the Golden Bodhisattva suddenly asked, "My Lord, do you understand?"
"ah?"
King Han looked at the teacup and spilled water on the table, recalled the brief scene just now, and suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Master, I understand!"
"You want to tell me that being obsessed with sexual desire is like holding this scalding hot teacup, and sooner or later I will hurt myself, right?" He realized it and said happily.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the Golden Bodhisattva frowned and then slowly shook his head: "No..."
"Huh?" King Han was stunned.
Then I heard the Golden Bodhisattva say: "I want to tell you, Your Majesty, some things are like this water, when it is full, it will naturally overflow..."
"But this matter can be solved by just taking action..."
"..." King Han savored these words, lost in thought for a moment, then stood up and bowed deeply, "Disciple understands! Zen Master's teachings are indeed powerful! No wonder the Buddha said, if you work hard, you will have enough food and clothing... I'll go back and do it now!"
Thinking of the excitement, King Han happily turned around and strode out.
But in the blink of an eye, he suddenly pushed the door open and came back, sitting opposite the Golden Bodhisattva again.
"Master, I forgot, there is one more thing."
"oh?"
King Han frowned and said, "It was my beloved Ninth Madam. The day before yesterday, I followed the Zen Master's teachings and lived in a separate room from her. But today, someone told me that she might have a connection with someone from Broken Monument Mountain. I... don't know what to do."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, the Golden Bodhisattva smiled slightly and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed and a mouthful of blood spurted out!
"puff--"
King Han, who was sitting opposite the table, was completely unprepared and was sprayed with blood.
"Puff..." He wiped his face and looked at the golden Buddha in front of him, whose face turned as pale as gold paper. The light in his eyes dimmed. He was surprised, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and slapped his thigh fiercely! "Master, I understand!"
"You are telling your disciples in this way that they are slandering you! Right?"
King Han stood up and laughed heartily: "I said that Madam Nine must have been wronged. The Zen Master has made too much sacrifice to enlighten his disciple!"
He bowed to the golden Buddha again, then turned around and left with big strides.
The Golden Bodhisattva raised his hand with difficulty, as if he wanted to say something to him, but the blood in his chest was surging and he couldn't utter a word.
It was not until King Han had left for a while that he managed to utter a sentence with a weak breath: "I'll spray your mother..."
His body softened and he fell back heavily. He let out a breath and then gritted his teeth, squeezing out a name.
"Tong Wudi..."
…
"He's not dead, is he?"
Li Chu also looked at the place where the golden Buddha was broken and asked questions at the same time.
"Of course." Tong Wudi replied.
When reaching the realm of land immortals, everyone has some means of preserving their lives, especially the Golden Bodhisattva, who has been promoted to land immortals for many years and is considered to be one of the best.
Li Chu didn't think that he would be killed so easily, even if the one who did it was the best in the world.
Tong Wudi continued, "Golden Bodhisattva was once a disciple of the Yunfu Temple in the Southern Pure Land. He explored the ruins of the gods with his fellow disciples. His fellow disciples found the ancient Buddhist treasure, the Xumi Mingguang Mirror, in the ruins of the gods, and Golden Bodhisattva killed people to steal the treasure. In order to avoid being hunted down by the Yunfu Temple, he took the Xumi Mingguang Mirror and joined the Demon Sect. This is why he is the Dharma King of the Demon Sect, but has a Buddhist cultivation."
"The Sumeru Bright Light Mirror can project the soul, which is equivalent to creating a clone with the same cultivation as the original body, and it can come and go freely. I just used the great magical power of transforming my body into heaven and earth to cut off the projection of the Sumeru Bright Light Mirror, which made it easy to kill it. Although it is only a projection, it is connected to the original body, which is equivalent to severely damaging his soul. With his cultivation level, it will take at least five years to fully recover."
Hearing this, Li Chu nodded slightly and said, "Very impressive."
He really thinks it's amazing.
Although the magical powers I now possess are much more than before, they are still far behind those of the real land immortals who stand at the top of the human world. Not only are there fewer in number, but they are also too simple, which is a big disadvantage for me.
Hearing Li Chu's praise, Tong Wudi's mouth curled up involuntarily, but he soon realized it and restrained his expression, remaining calm again.
Turning his head, he maintained a steady voice and said solemnly: "It's just a chicken and a dog."
