Chapter 294: Previous Fate

Each of the seven-story pagoda of Tathagata has a vast and boundless space. The guardian Vajra, Dingjia, gods, golden dragons, and evil demons cannot enter at all. The bamboo girl has a demonic aura, but because she is a plant spirit, she has not been stained with killing sins, and the demonic aura is also very peaceful. In addition, she followed the witch and Red Boy, and the Buddha's light of the relics in the pagoda could not cause harm to her. Those gods who guard the pagoda will not come to cause trouble.

However, the green bull is different. Not only is it full of demonic aura, but it also broke in without being invited. There is no need to be polite. Layers of gods, Vajra, strong men, Dingjia, and Gongcao surrounded it. Some even opened an extremely subtle Buddha's light dream method to trap the green bull in it and wait for the Buddha to deal with it later. The monster who dared to directly break into the Seven Treasures Pagoda in the Pure Land of Grandma is really bold to the extreme.

The Red Boy and the Bamboo Girl chased to the sixth floor, and saw a group of Vajra being knocked to the ground. Many magic tools fell on the vast golden ground. Near the door of the top of the stupa, the Green Ox was confronting Nagarjuna Bodhisattva and Deva Bodhisattva.

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva and Deva Bodhisattva were the Buddha's followers. In their early years, they followed Tathagata to save the world. After Tathagata was sealed, the two Bodhisattvas did not go to the world and went to the Pure Land of Sasas, waiting for Tathagata to be reborn and save sentient beings again.

Seeing that the wise man was fierce and the Vajra gods could not resist him, the two Bodhisattvas hurriedly sacrificed their own magic weapons, the Nine-ring Zen Staff, the Miedu Golden Ring, and at the same time opened the Brahma-Romance Tai Demon Subduing Formation set up by the founder of the Tantric Buddhism, the Zen Master Wuchao.

The Nine-ring Zen Staff jingled, and a golden light flew up from the ground, creating countless phantoms, and the Sanskrit chanting was loud. A series of gorgeous treasure lights squeezed in from the front, back, left, right, up and down. The golden light was hidden in the precious light, and in the golden light, there appeared Buddhas, some with ten hands, but some with six hands, with a kind face. Singing the Great Compassion Demon Subduing Mantra, at the same time, the countless relics suspended in the air by the small golden pagoda on the top shone brightly, and the entire six-story pagoda suddenly disappeared, as if it had reached an endless space.

The whole world was a piece of colored glaze, and there were tall Buddhas in all directions. Looking down, people couldn't help but want to run down and worship. The two Bodhisattvas activated the formation and evolved the future bright colored glaze pure land. Even the three people, Red Boy, the three demons, and the bamboo girl were wrapped in it.

But the three people had time, and the two Bodhisattvas didn't pay attention, and they were rolled in at once. When they found it, it was too late. They were afraid that the formation would be released, and the blue bull would see the flaw and run out. So they had to keep all three people and release them together after the Lotus Sutra Conference.

The Miedu Golden Ring was hidden in the Glazed World. All of a sudden, the golden illusions fell down in circles with the chanting of countless Buddhas. The Red Boy witch quickly offered up the protective magic weapon. The witch did not dare to take the Shura Mirror, but she knew that the Shura Mirror was a very evil magic weapon. It was incompatible with the Buddha's light, and she was afraid that it would cause disasters if it was used. The Red Boy threw the Douri Net upward, and a dark cloud covered the top of his head. Then it wrapped around and covered the three of them.

The dark cloud was rolling and rolling, and it was dozens of acres in size. The golden ring could not fall down, but felt that the pressure was too great, and it could not even move to the side, so it could only sit down with peace of mind.

The bamboo girl was covered by the Buddha's light, and she screamed. She couldn't bear it anymore, and her original form was revealed. She was a bamboo three feet tall, green, but the leaves were sparse, with only a few left. There was a bamboo branch on the top, holding a bowl-sized pearl, full of white light. It was this pearl that made the bamboo girl intelligent, but the leaves lost more than half of their power because they resisted the capture of the evil demons.

Oops, it's okay for us, but she couldn't stand it. She was covered by the Buddha's light and chanting, and she lost at least a hundred years of magic power. Now Wushen is probably injured. Red Boy hurriedly said: It's a pity that I didn't bring the nectar, otherwise it would be fine if I sprinkled it.

Little kid, I told you not to follow me, what's wrong, now you're at a disadvantage. The green bull was covered with white light, and entered the black cloud transformed by Douri Luowang as if entering an empty space.

Red Boy and the witch were both shocked: How did you get in?

Qingniu laughed loudly and said: There is no array treasure in the three realms that can stop me. I saw those two bald monks coming down, and I happened to have one too, so I wanted to see who was stronger, but who knew that you little sisters were also involved.

The witch hurriedly said: The senior is really powerful, I don't know what grudge he has with Sakyamuni Buddha, why did he come to my door

Qingniu took out the diamond bracelet and shook it at the bamboo. A circle of white light shot onto the pearl, and the bamboo changed again. The bamboo girl patted her chest and said: I was scared to death, I was scared to death. I was so sad just now. Seeing Qingniu again, knowing that he saved me, she clapped her hands and said: Uncle is also a good person.

Qingniu laughed and said: "Little girl, you are quite likable. I have no grudge against that bald Sakya. We were old acquaintances. It's just that this bald man didn't invite his old friends, but invited his old enemies. I can't stand it. He came to cause trouble. It's hard to explain. Little sister, don't listen."

Seeing that the demon king was too lazy to talk, the witch stopped asking. She saw that the demon king had great magical powers and had no ill will towards her, but was trapped in the Glazed Pure Land and it was rare for him to get out. After thinking for a while, the bamboo girl asked: "Uncle, can you take me out? This place is so sad and not fun at all."

Qingniu laughed and said: "Little girl, it's easy to get out. This king sees that you are quite congenial. I was just about to give you two magic weapons." After saying that, he looked at the dark clouds around him again, and his face gradually became surprised: "This is Houyi's Douri Luowang. Good guy, whose disciples are you, and you actually have such a magic weapon?"

Red Boy said: "We are disciples of Emperor Gouchen.

Green Ox was stunned, then secretly said: Gou Chen?

Red Boy and the witch didn't notice, but Bamboo Girl clapped her hands and said happily: Another magic weapon, how come you have so many magic weapons? This sister just gave me one. If I had a magic weapon a few days ago, I would definitely drive away the monster, and I wouldn't have to use up all the leaves. Now there are only a few leaves on my body, which is so ugly.

Green Ox came out of the black cloud, looked at the Buddhas in the sky, and the golden circle came down, laughing: It's not easy to meet one, so I want to play more, wait for Duobao to come out, but now this king has changed his mind.

After saying that, he threw out the diamond bracelet in his hand.

At the same time, Tathagata was on the top of the pagoda. Just when he was talking about: Neither birth nor death, neither constant nor continuous. Not the same nor different, neither coming nor going. That is, the Eight Negations, the Eight Negations, and the Eight Negations.

Zhou Qing closed his eyes and listened. Suddenly, his mind moved. He counted with his fingers and was shocked. Then he was overjoyed. Then he heard a voice in his ear saying: The people below are destined to be with God. Please follow me down.

Zhou Qing was shocked and looked forward. He found that Tathagata was smiling at him and then continued to preach. He looked at the Duobao Tathagata above him, who was also smiling at him. His lips moved slightly, and he immediately understood. He closed his eyes and sat quietly again, and the clouds and dark clouds above his head were retracted.

Most of the people in the voice were listening to Tathagata and did not pay attention. Only Randeng, Wukong, Zhenyuanzi, and Dainichi Tathagata paid a little attention. But they just glanced and then ignored it.

Let's say that the young man offered the Vajra bracelet. There was a crackling sound, and a bright white light flashed, and the sky was full of Buddha light rain. The golden ring, the golden light, and the glazed color all disappeared, revealing the space of the six-story pagoda. The relics on the top also lost their brilliance. A closer look revealed that only the golden pagoda was left. The relics were all covered by the diamond bracelet and fell into the bag of the green ox.

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva and Deva Bodhisattva were empty-handed. Although the Nine-ring Zen Staff and the Miedu Golden Ring were the most precious treasures of Buddhism, they could not stop the instrument of the saint of the human sect to transform the barbarians. Even the Buddha was transformed by Laozi, not to mention the magic of Buddhism.

Qingniu ignored the two Bodhisattvas and threw the Nine-ring Zen Staff and the Exterminating Golden Ring to Zhunv: You call me uncle, and I don't have anything to give you. I only have a white ring on my body. Now I'll give you a golden ring, how about it?

Zhunv was surprised and looked at the Nine-ring Zen Staff. The whole body was purple-gold in color. There was a seven-colored relic on the top, the size of a pigeon egg, and nine iron rings below. The whole staff was only two feet long, light in the hand, and the staff was engraved with countless scriptures, densely packed, but it was very comfortable to hold in the hand.

The Exterminating Golden Ring was also engraved with scriptures, the size of a bowl, and a circle of relics was inlaid on the ring, which was actually golden in color. Apart from that, there was nothing special about it.

When Nagarjuna Bodhisattva and Deva Bodhisattva saw that their personal magic weapons were taken away and the formation was broken, they were immediately anxious and panicked. They hurriedly used the mysterious skills to take back the magic weapons, but they didn't know that their personal magic weapons had no response at all.

What kind of bird Bodhisattva, if it weren't for Duobao, I would have beaten you up. Qingniu sneered.

Brother Jin is still so stubborn. I had something to do, so I couldn't invite you. Why did you come to my door? A deep voice sounded from the void, and a thousand-armed Buddha appeared, with a thousand hands holding a Dharma instrument, shining with precious light, countless, and each with its own color and shape, worthy of being Duobao Tathagata.

The Nagarjuna Bodhisattva and the Deva Bodhisattva who greeted the Buddha knew that this Duobao Tathagata was the incarnation of my Buddha. Meeting him was equivalent to meeting Sakyamuni, so they hurried to pay homage.

You two should retreat, said Duobao Tathagata.

The two Bodhisattvas did not dare to disobey the order and retreated. The Vajra, the gods, and Dingjia also retreated six floors. In the entire hall, there was only Duobao Tathagata in the air, the Qingniu standing on the ground, and the Red Boy and the witch Zhunv.

Why did you become so big? Are you trying to scare me? Qingniu said coldly: You are indeed Duobao, you have so many magic weapons on you.

Duobao Tathagata smiled, and with a transformation, the Buddha's light converged, and he turned into a Taoist in green clothes and floated down.

Qingniu said: I also know your difficulties. I didn't want to come, but the driver of Jiao Mowang is often lonely and irritable, and I am enjoying blood food in his mansion. It's not good to show him a bad face. Besides, since we parted at Hangu Pass that year, it has been thousands of years since we last met. I heard that you suffered a disaster and now you have escaped the disaster, so I came to see you.

Duobao Taoist smiled and said: You don't have to, I also know what you mean.

Qingniu said: It seems that although you have suffered hardships, your Taoism has improved. Within a thousand years, the great catastrophe of heaven and earth will come. I wonder if you are in the state of Hunyuan to escape the catastrophe.

Duobao Taoist sighed: Fate is beyond human power, how can I know

Qingniu said: I heard that Gou Chen was born to meet the catastrophe. Take me up to see him.

Why go up? Duobao Taoist was about to clap his hands, and another person appeared behind him, it was Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing stepped forward lightly, and Qingniu was about to bow, but found that Zhou Qing ignored him. Instead, he stared at the bamboo girl, and felt a little unhappy. Duobao Taoist said: Brother Jin, don't be in a hurry. This girl has a great affinity with Brother Zhou, so Brother Zhou was rude for a while.

The bamboo girl played with the nine-ring Zen staff. When the golden ring was destroyed, the witch Red Boy next to him greeted him. He looked up and saw Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing's eyes were bright and staring at him. There seemed to be something strange in his eyes, as if it was something familiar to him, but when he thought about it carefully, he had no clue.

Red Boy was puzzled by the witch. Since he entered the Tiandao Gate, he had never seen his master lose his composure like this, so he was surprised.

Bamboo Girl was not afraid, and looked at Zhou Qing, trying to remember the familiar thing, but it was always vague. This feeling was like the feeling of the soil and rocks under his feet since he grew up, which was extremely kind.

Zhou Qing gradually stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and touched the top of Bamboo Girl's head. Bamboo Girl did not dodge and let him touch her. Duobao Taoist said: Brother Zhou, your daughter has been through many calamities. This life is more like grass and trees, how can she remember the things thousands of years ago.

Zhou Qing touched the bamboo stick in his hand and said to the bamboo girl: I have become a Taoist and have understood thousands of past lives, so I want to find you. It's just that the destiny of heaven seems to have been reversed. I can't calculate it with my Taoist practice. I thought you were already dead. Even your mother thought so, so she lost her heart early. I mentioned it to avoid being sad. Until yesterday, I turned away my obsession and understood it in my heart. I wanted to calculate it quietly for a few days. The person who reversed the destiny of heaven seemed to notice it and brought you to me. In fact, I know that person in my heart. He was also a famous golden immortal senior back then. I am just a small cultivator. Your mother and I were forced to reincarnate. Until now, I was born to meet your mother. I think from ancient times to the present, there are so many cultivators who have been reincarnated to meet the calamity. Why did that senior who became an immortal make it difficult for me and make it difficult for me to meet my flesh and blood?

Duobao Taoist smiled: Brother Zhou, there is no need to say more. Everything has its destiny. Although the Golden Immortal made it difficult for you to meet your flesh and blood, he did enlighten you after all. Besides, since we have met, the grudges are over. The thousands of reincarnations and the past are all in the past. They are all gone like clouds blown away by the wind.

Zhou Qing said: I understand this. If it weren't for the enlightenment of that senior, I would still be struggling in the six reincarnations and sinking into the empty world.

Red Boy and the Witch were confused at first, and they didn't understand it until later. The Bamboo Girl was also a little confused and said to Zhou Qing: It's strange. I clearly haven't seen you, but it seems that I have seen you somewhere. I can't remember it.

Zhou Qing said: If you can't remember, don't think about it. Are you willing to follow me?

The bamboo girl nodded vigorously and said: I can see that you are also a good person. I don't know where to go anyway, so I will follow you.

The witch hurriedly stepped forward and said: Don't call me "you" and "you", call me "daddy", understand

The bamboo girl muttered: But I grew out of the soil, I don't have a daddy, but daddy is daddy.

Zhou Qing smiled and said: You have reincarnated into a grass body, and you have reincarnated many times before, so of course you don't remember me, this is okay, follow daddy to practice Taoism, and you will understand when you are more advanced.

The witch said: Master, the little sister doesn't have a name yet.

Zhou Qing said: Since you have reincarnated into a bamboo body, you are also a sky beacon, so you should be named after bamboo.

The witch quickly told the bamboo girl that most of the spirits of plants and trees are the most unfortunate. Even if they have intelligence, they practice by instinct and resist the heavenly tribulation. Unless someone guides them, that is an exception. Otherwise, only one in a million can become an immortal, but their intelligence is also very low. For example, the child is often urged by the evil monks to refine medicine and magic weapons. Even the immortals denounce them as monsters and must get rid of them as soon as possible.

Zhou Qing suddenly saw Zhou Zhu playing with the two magic weapons in his hand, and hurriedly said: This is a sacred weapon of Buddhism. You should not use it. Return it to the owner quickly. Daddy will give it to you later.

Zhou Zhu was reluctant to give it up, and his face was disappointed, but he listened to Zhou Qing's words. He looked around and said: The two monks went down. I remember their place. This uncle snatched it and gave it to me. Daddy, do you want to return it to the uncle or the two monks?

Zhou Qing said: Of course, return it to the original owner.

Zhou Zhu said: Then I will go down to find them.

Qingniu rolled his eyes, stopped Zhou Zhu, and said to Zhou Qing: Brother, this is your fault. Brother Duobao's disciples offended me, so I asked them to be punished. I got along well with my daughter, so I gave her away. Why did you stop me? Zhou Qing said: I was afraid that Brother Duobao would be unhappy. Duobao said: It's okay, Brother is happy to be reunited with your daughter today, so I will give her away. Zhou Qing quickly asked Zhou Zhu to thank Qingniu Duobao. Qingniu pinched Zhou Zhu's face and smiled: Little girl, if your father doesn't love you, you can find me and see if I won't teach him a lesson. After that, he turned around and left, saying: It's fate that we meet today. Brothers, if you can achieve Hunyuan in the future, you must help me escape the catastrophe. If you can't achieve it, don't mention it. When the catastrophe comes, don't blame me for being ruthless.
