Chapter 701: Come to Lingshan
Chapter 701: Come to Lingshan
"Do you want to see the Buddha?"
Both Bodhisattvas were a little surprised, but after thinking about it, they felt that this was reasonable.
After all, if they weren't looking for the Buddha, why would Chen Xuan and the Sea Lord come to their Buddhist world for no reason?
It's impossible that he is here to see these two Bodhisattvas.
At the end of this era, the fighting power of the Bodhisattva is far from enough!
"Lead the way."
Chen Xuan was too lazy to explain the reason, and there was no need to explain it to these two people.
"Please come with me."
The two Bodhisattvas are also people who know the general situation and know what questions can be asked and what questions cannot be asked.
Since two powerful gods wanted to meet the Buddha, they naturally had deeper matters to discuss, perhaps even matters concerning the life and death of the five realms. The two did not dare to delay and immediately led the way.
The distance from Kutuo Temple to Lingshan is very far. If converted into the distance of three thousand continents, the two are separated by hundreds of continents.
After all, Lingshan is located in the westernmost part of the Buddhist world.
Even for a god-level strongman, it would take several hours to fly over.
However, there is a teleportation array from Kutuo Temple to Lingshan, so there is no need to waste so much time.
One Bodhisattva continued to stay in Kutuo Temple, while the other took Chen Xuan and Hai Zhu, and the three of them were teleported directly to the foot of Lingshan Mountain through the teleportation array.
"Greetings, Uncle Wuneng!"
The one guarding the teleportation array at the foot of Lingshan Mountain is an Arhat, who is also a powerful Martial Emperor.
When he saw that the person coming was the Bodhisattva from Kutuo Temple, he immediately stepped forward and paid his respects.
His status is actually very high. The last time the abbot of Kutuo Temple came to deliver a letter, he had to call him "senior brother".
Of course, no matter how high one’s status is, in front of the Bodhisattva, they are all juniors.
The Bodhisattva of Kutuo Temple hummed in response.
"Who are these two?"
Luohan looked at Chen Xuan and Hai Zhu in surprise. He had never seen these two people before.
Although the Sea Lord had come to Lingshan to discuss the Dao with the Buddha more than once, his status still did not allow him to meet the Sea Lord.
"Donor Chen Xuan, and Lord Hai!"
"I came here this time to take them both to see the Buddha."
The Bodhisattva spoke.
"Amitabha, so you are here to see the Buddha. Please come in."
The monk guarding the formation immediately stretched out his hand, made a gesture of invitation, and then made way.
"You two, please come with me."
The Bodhisattva spoke immediately and led the way.
The golden light of Lingshan is everywhere, giving people a feeling of comfort and peace.
Even people with hot tempers can easily calm down here.
Under normal circumstances, one has to walk up the stairs when worshipping Lingshan.
There are ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps from the foot of the mountain to the top.
Pilgrims need to bow their heads every three steps.
After walking up three steps, you have to kneel down and kowtow, then chant "Amitabha" and recite a Buddhist scripture. I don't know when I can walk from the bottom to the top of the mountain.
Most people couldn't stand it anymore and left after they had walked a part of it.
Very few people can walk from the foot of the mountain to the top.
Of course, if you can reach the top of the mountain, you will have the opportunity to see the Buddha.
Most of the pilgrims come with desire.
In fact, for most people, the so-called worship of Buddha is not to worship Buddha, but to the desires in their hearts.
The reason why the Buddha set up so many levels of stairs is to screen out those people with strong desires. They come to make a pilgrimage because they want the Buddha and Bodhisattva to fulfill their wishes.
Most of those who have too strong desires cannot reach the end.
As for those who can reach the end, either they truly have Buddha in their hearts, or they do it to save their family or loved ones.
Of course, no matter what the reason is, as long as you kowtow every three steps and reach the end, no matter what your wish is, the Buddha and Bodhisattva will help you.
Of course, Chen Xuan and Hai Zhu couldn't take this step.
Although Lingshan is thousands of feet high, they can reach the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain in just one step.
However, when you come here, you have to abide by the rules.
Chen Xuan and Hai Zhu both followed the Bodhisattva of Kutuo Temple.
Soon, they arrived at the Great Leiyin Temple on the top of the mountain.
"This place looks familiar. I think I've seen it on TV."
In the Great Leiyin Temple, the Buddha sits in the center of the main hall with his legs crossed and a golden lotus sitting under his buttocks.
Beside him, there are dozens of Bodhisattvas surrounding him.
On both sides of the main hall are the Arhats.
At this moment, these Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and Buddhas are all chanting with their eyes closed.
Even when Chen Xuan and the others came in, they did not open their eyes and continued to recite scriptures.
As if they knew that Chen Xuan and the others were coming, there were three white cushions in the main hall, not far from the Buddha.
The Bodhisattva of Kutuo Temple brought Chen Xuan and Haizhu to the cushion, sat down, and whispered, "The Buddha is reciting the Sutra of Saving People. When the sutra is finished, the Buddha will wake up and talk to you two."
"it's okay no problem."
Chen Xuan chuckled. This was his second time meeting the Buddha.
The first time I met him was yesterday. The Buddha was invited by the God to help, so in a sense, he is one of us.
Yesterday, when the Buddha was fighting the Demon Lord, he transformed into a six-foot-tall golden body, shining brightly all over, and easily captured the Demon Lord.
No matter how the demon lord attacks, he cannot hurt the Buddha at all.
At that time, Chen Xuan had a feeling that this old monk definitely had a lot of spare strength left, and he was also a person who kept his talents secret.
Although the Buddha at this moment also has Buddha light on his body, it is not dazzling, and he is no longer a six-foot-tall golden body. However, his body is wider and obviously larger than other Bodhisattvas.
His face was very broad and plump, with long earlobes and a hint of rosy red between his eyebrows.
Other Bodhisattvas have only a few fleshy buns on their heads, but the Buddha’s head is completely covered with fleshy buns.
According to legend, the fleshy bun is a symbol of wisdom.
The more fleshy buns a person has on his head, the deeper his wisdom is.
Chen Xuan felt that this Great Leiyin Temple was exactly the same as the Great Leiyin Temple he had seen on TV in his previous life.
Is this a coincidence?
Chen Xuan didn't know.
However, at this moment, he did not sit obediently on the mat, but stood up and planned to walk around.
Anyway, these monks all close their eyes when they chant, so looking around won't affect their chanting.
"Are you really going to wait? Do you know how long it takes to finish reciting the Sutra of Deliverance?"
Seeing Chen Xuanxin was so angry, the Sea Lord immediately looked at him.
"how much time is required?"
Chen Xuan asked subconsciously.
He felt that it shouldn't take long to recite a scripture, at most one or two hours, so he waited patiently.
Seeing that he really didn't know, the Sea Lord reminded him, "The fastest time would be three days, and if it's slow, it might even be half a month! Are you really going to wait that long?"
