The monk Shami in monk's robe above the coffin cave is exactly the golden cicada he once saw in his dream.
The "golden cicada" has obviously disappeared, leaving a body without any vitality, which is very like the "body Buddha" of the great sage after his death.
Shen Lang's heart was tingling, so he knelt down and worshipped the young monk in the coffin cave.
"Chosen, you are here at last."
The body of the young man in the monk's robe suddenly brightened, and a virtual shadow of the young man with nine colors of Buddhist light emerged.
The Buddha's light and shadow of Jin Chan Zi sits on the void, standing on the right side of his body, quietly watching the waves, with a gentle smile on his face.
Shen Lang was shocked all over and bowed himself to say, "Dear Shen Lang, I'd like to meet you, master Jinchanzi!"
"I'm just a little monk, and I'm not worthy of your great gift."
The golden cicada's shadow smiles and rolls up a light wind to support Shen Lang's body.
This gold cicada son is so broad-minded, on the contrary, it makes Shen Lang respect.
"Dare to ask Master Jinchanzi, your body..."
Knowing what Shen Lang wanted to ask, Jin chanzi replied frankly, "as you can see, I'm dead. This soul is nothing more than a wisp of soul power left in the body before he died. "
"I'm sorry, I'm being rude."
Shen Lang felt that he had said something wrong and apologized immediately.
The golden cicada shook his head and said, "to me, life and death are nothing but vanity. You don't need to care."
Shen Lang was silent for a while. He had many questions in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.
Jinchanzi seemed to see what Shen Lang was thinking and said with a smile, "Heaven chosen, I know you must have many questions in your heart. You might as well speak them out."
"Good!"
Shen Lang nodded slightly and took the lead to ask: "please let me ask, where is the Buddha now?"
As soon as the cicada's right palm was lifted, the flesh Buddha on his side suddenly glowed like the sun.
Then a golden pearl flew out of the Buddha's mouth and fell into the right palm of the golden cicada.
The jewel is the size of an egg, and its whole body is golden. The Golden Buddha light is surging on the surface, which is as bright as the sun. It exudes a deep and ethereal atmosphere, but it does not lose its dignity.
"This is Buddha's relic
Shen Lang was surprised. The relic in front of him was quite different from the Buddha relic left by the ancient Buddha dengdeng, but the light energy and willpower of the Buddha in the relic was no less than the Buddha relic left by the ancient Buddha dengdeng.
From this point of view, the master of this Buddhist relic is the Buddha in nine cases out of ten!
"After all, the Tathagata understands the truth of the Buddha, but the price is a little high."
Jin Chan Zi shook his head helplessly and sighed in a deep voice: "to explain these things clearly, we need to start from the identity of the Tathagata."
"Identity?"
Shen Lang wondered to himself, is there any other identity for this Buddha?
Jin chanzi said without hesitation: "in the Hunyuan era, wushizhenzu founded Buddhism, but he only accepted two disciples. The first disciple was named" Jieyin "and the second disciple was named" zhunti. "
"At that time, there was no such appellation as Buddha in Buddhism, and both of them claimed to be Taoist. The original body of the Tathagata is the "Jieyin Taoist". In a word, the Tathagata is indeed a disciple of wushizhenzu. "
There is a lot of information in Jin chanzi's words, and Shen Lang is shocked.
He has seen some descriptions of Jieyin Taoist and zhunti Taoist in ancient books. These two great powers are said to be the well-known ancestors of Taoism in the era of Fengshen, which is enough to be in parallel with the original Tianzun Tongtian sect leader.
However, the description of the two people in ancient books is very vague, which is just a simple one. It is said that the leading Taoist and the zhunti Taoist had made great contributions in the battle of canonization and won the position of canonization.
There is no more description.
I didn't expect that these two legendary daemons were disciples of wushizhenzu, and that the Tathagata was actually a guide!
Jinchanzi continued: "Jieyin Taoist has been searching for the true meaning of Buddhism all his life, trying to reach the realm of wushizhenzu. But he has never been able to take this step, and it is difficult for him to make progress. "
"Zhunti Daoist, who was also a disciple of wushizhenzu, stopped here. At last, he turned to Buddhism instead, and both of them embarked on a completely different road."
"At the end of the battle of Fengshen, Daoists were introduced to incarnate as the Tathagata, and Leiyin temple was established in Lingshan to teach Buddhism and accumulate the power of belief, which is still good for virtue."
"It's a pity that since he discovered that the stone slab of the ancient Buddha and the lamp burning Taoist are reincarnated spirit children without the original ancestor, his delusion has gradually enlarged."
"The Tathagata believed that wushizhenzu was still in the Mongolian realm, so he strongly invited my previous life" daoren of lighting lamp "to Lingshan, just to enter the Mongolian realm to see the truth of Buddhism."
"In my previous life, I had a clear understanding of the delusion in the mind of the Tathagata. In order to resolve the delusion, I joined Lingshan with the Dharma body of the ancient Buddha and handed over the stone tablet of the ancient Buddha. But I didn't tell the way to enter the Inner Mongolia. It's useless for the Tathagata to get the stone tablet of the ancient Buddha.""Dengdeng ancient Buddha has been practicing in Lingshan for countless years and has become a Buddha. He was well aware that the delusion of the Tathagata was constantly amplified. In order to prevent the Tathagata from being controlled by the delusion, he died with the blood god son at the cost of his own life in the war against the blood god son, and the coffin palace lamp was sealed in the Buddhist relic he left behind. "
"One of the reasons for doing this is to guide the Tianxuan, and by the way, to leave the coffin lantern to the Tianxuan of later generations, and the other is to prevent the Tathagata from getting it."
After hearing this, Shen Lang understood why dengdeng ancient Buddha used his Buddhist relic to seal the blood devil Ding Ying. It seems that dengdeng ancient Buddha has already understood everything.
Jin chanzi then said, "after the fall of the ancient Buddha, I was accepted as a disciple by the Tathagata. Another Dharma Dharma body of the previous life, the lamp burning Taoist, still controls the body of the lamp burning ancient Buddha at this time. "
"In order to eliminate the delusion in the mind of the Tathagata, the lamp burning Taoist bet with the Tathagata that Jinchanzi would surely be beyond him."
"The Tathagata didn't agree at first, because I doubted the Lingshan Buddhism and accepted the gambling agreement by myself, so that he destroyed my body and soul, leaving only a trace of Huigen aura, remoulding into a mortal, destroying suffering and preaching."
"It was because of this gambling that the journey to the West became possible..."
The golden cicada son tells the story, and Shen Lang sighs that's how it is.
"On the way to the west, I once received three disciples. I think my great disciple, Sun Wukong, has already met you."
Jin chanzi's eyes gradually turned to Shen lang. even if there was only residual soul power left, he could feel the existence of the stone of fire on Shen Lang.
Shen Lang nodded and replied, "I have met Master Sun and master Wukong, and I have received the great kindness of them."
