Chapter 182 Laozi took action and accepted the apprentice Guan Yin
But it is said that after the separation of Laozi in the world created a Taoist school, he gradually awakened the brand of the saint's original god. At the same time, Taiqing Tian Laozi also ordered the lamp-burning Taoist to come to meet him.
At the moment, I only listened to my instructions and said, "The lamp-burning nephew, now the time has come. You go down to the earth, look for the split of the poor road, and then go out of the Han Valley in the west, turn the Tao into a Buddha, and divide the luck of the Western Buddhism into two, so that I will be worry-free."
The lamp-burning Taoist lowered his head, and the light flashed in his eyes, and then said, "The lamp-burning is ordered." After saying that, he pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring.
What a person I am, I can naturally see that the impassioned color of the lamp-burning Taoist is pretending. After thinking about it for a moment, he said to him, "Don't worry, my nephew, there are also merits to gain from the establishment of the Hinayana Buddhism. At that time, the benefits of my nephew will naturally be indispensable." The reason why I said this was that I thought that the lamp-burning Taoist wanted to ask for benefits from him, so he comforted me. But I didn't expect that the lamp-burning Taoist had the intention of apostasy at this time.
However, when the lamp-burning Taoist heard that there were merits and virtues, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said secretly, "I never thought that there would be unexpected gains this time." Instead, there was a secret smile in my heart: "It seems that I think I want to take this opportunity to get some benefits, hum! It's worthy of being a brother. They are all small-bellied chicken intestines. After thinking about it, the lamp turned a straight face and said to Lao Zi, "The master has been preaching to the disciples for hundreds of years, which has been a rare harvest. How dare the disciples think anything else!"
I listened, nodded slightly, and then said, "Well, my nephew will start." Then he rode the green bull with the lamp, ordered him to take it, and ride with the split.
Hearing this, the lamp-burning Taoist worshipped me, led the green cow, and ran out of the sky to the mortal world.
Just after I ordered the lamp Taoist to go down to the world, in the Biyou Palace on Penglai Island, Tongtian, who was closing his eyes and practicing, suddenly opened his eyes. His face was gloomy and he said coldly, "I'm really a fool. I'm really a saint when I think of such a bad move!" Well, if it goes on like this, the West may really be resurgence and flourish again. After saying that, Tongtian's face was even worse, and it was so gloomy that it could drip water.
You should know that Lao Tzu's move not only failed to achieve the expected effect, but also sent a quasi-saint to Western Buddhism. What's more hateful is that Buddhism took this opportunity to make up for the fortune of the great religion with Hinayana Buddhism, and no longer worried about the damage of the twelve golden lotus. How can I not be angry when I am so hostile to Tongtian?
"How did the primitive teach disciples? How would you not know? I'm afraid it's not just the lights, but also Cihang and others now have different intentions. Such a disciple, such a teacher, you can't see why you are still a big brother!" Tongtian was depressed and roared directly.
You should know that if the lamp burning and others really join Buddhism, the position of the quasi-saint of Buddhism will increase sharply. Only under his interception, although the strength of the Buddha's quasi-saint is much worse than that of the Taoist quasi-saint, don't forget that there are so many Buddhist disciples, even others, interpretations, and interception can't be compared with it. So many quasi-saints, plus With so many disciples, Tongtian suddenly felt worried. I don't know if the disciples could cope with it.
At the moment, Tongtian thought for a moment, then raised his head and said in a hateful voice, "Even if you have this opportunity, if you want to prosper, you still need to pass the poor road." After saying that, I thought that this kind of thing was all made by myself smart, and I couldn't help but feel a burst of hatred in my heart. I said secretly, "You are so shallow, and the poor road will not make you feel better. When you are in Shushan, if you want to be prosperous, you also need to pass the poor road."
After thinking about it, Tongtian stopped practicing and directly began to plan the journey to the west and Shushan.
But it is said that after the lamp-burning Taoist led the green cow out of the sky, he came to the world after a few days. Then he went all the way to Luoyi. After arriving in Luoyi, the lamp-burning Taoist could easily find Laozi's split. After all, Laozi's split can be said to be well-known in the world. After a little incry, you will know his residence.
When the lamp-burning Taoist saw Laozi's split, I was sitting in the room. At the moment, when I heard someone coming in, Youyou opened his eyes and saw that it was a lamp-burning Taoist, so he said lightly, "Coming."
Although the person in front of me is just a split, the Taoist of the combustible lamp does not dare to neglect it. Moreover, at this critical moment, he does not want to be extraneous. Even if he pays a big salute: "Disciple burning lamp has seen the master uncle, may the master live a boundless life." With that, he knelt down on the ground.
I nodded slightly and said, "Don't be polite, get up." After a pause, he continued, "Then I'll wait and go." After saying that, he got up and walked out.
When the lamp-burning Taoist heard this, he was excited, but he didn't show his face. He nodded and said, "Yes." Then he followed me and walked out.
The two of them got out of the house. I rode on the green cow, and the lamp-burning Taoist immediately stepped forward and took the green cow to Hangu Pass.
But he said that Guan Yin, the official of Hangu Pass, was good at astronomy, loved to read ancient books, and had a deep cultivation. Seeing the gathering of purple clouds in the east, it is 30,000 miles long and shaped like a flying dragon, rolling from east to west, knowing that there will be saints coming. So he sent people to clean the road for forty miles and burn incense in the way to welcome the saints. In the afternoon of this day, the sun was setting in the west and the light was shining in the east. Guan Yin suddenly saw an old man among the rare pedestrians under the customs, riding a green bull. The old man's white hair is like snow, his eyebrows are drooping, his ears are drooping his shoulders, his beard is drooping his knees, and his red plain robe is simple and clean. Guan Yin looked up to the sky and sighed, "I'm lucky to see a saint in my life!" So he took three steps and two steps, ran forward, knelt in front of the green cow and said, "Guan Yin knocked to see the saint."
When I saw the person's face, thick lips, long eyebrows, and nose, majestic but not cold, gentle and charming, I knew that I had something to do with this person, and I deliberately tried to say, "It's a great gift to worship the poor old man! I don't dare to take it. I don't know what to say?"
Guan Yin said, "My father-in-law, the saint! Make sure to stay at the gate to point out the way of practice.
I tried again: "What's so sacred about me? Do you love me so much? Shame on you. Shame on you. Shame to kill me?"
Guan Yin said, "Although Guan Yin is not talented, he is good at astronomy and knows a little about changes. Seeing the purple gas coming from the east, I know that there is a saint going west, and I see that the purple gas is vast and rolling like a dragon. It is 30,000 miles long. I know that the one who comes is the most holy and supreme, which is not the usual saint. Seeing the head of the purple gas wrapped around the white clouds, I know that the saint's white hair is like an old man. Before seeing the purple gas, there is a green cow star, and I know that the saint comes on the green cow.
After listening to it, I laughed: "Exaggerate, exaggerate!" Even the lamp-burning Taoist who led the green ox in front of him was also shocked and thought, "I never thought that there would be such a person in the world. Looking at his face and knowledge, I'm afraid that some immortals are also difficult to match. It's really rare." After thinking about it, the lamp-burning Taoist took a deep look at Guan Yin, but he was secretly worried about him.
At the moment, Guan Yin was overjoyed when he heard my words, and then knelt down and kowtowed.
After, Guan Yin led me to the official house, asked me to sit down, burn incense and perform the disciple's salute, and then pleaded, "The teacher is today's great saint!" Saints do not take their own wisdom as their own, but must take the wisdom of the people of the world as their own responsibility. Today, saints will live in seclusion but not benevolent, and it will be difficult to find those who ask for advice! Why not write the Holy Wisdom of the Holy One as a book? Although Guan Yin is shallow and not talented, he is willing to pass on the world on behalf of the saints and benefit the ages.
When I heard this, I nodded secretly. Then we took the rise and fall of the dynasty and the safety of the people as a lesson, and traced back to its origin. The first two articles and the next articles, a total of 5,000 words.
The beginning of the previous article is "Tao can be Tao, very Tao; name can be named, very famous". Therefore, it is called the Taoist Sutra.
The beginning of the next article is "If there is no virtue, there is virtue; if there is no virtue, there is no virtue. Therefore, it is called the Book of Virtue, collectively known as the Book of Tao. The Taoist scriptures say that the root of the universe contains the opportunity of the change of heaven and earth, and the wonderful transformation of yin and yang; the next "The Book of Virtue" says the way of the world, including the art of advancing and retreating personnel, and the way of long-term vision, which is the foundation of the teachings of human education.
Guan Yin was overjoyed when he got this scripture. He knelt down and saluted, "Thank you, Master."
Lao Tzu said, "Since you worship the poor as a teacher, I will give you a long name. You are not suitable to practice my immortal method. You can only learn the strong method. Speaking of this, my eyes flashed, and then said, "There is a younger brother in the poor way, who is the master of Tongtian in your mouth. His skills are very strange, but they are suitable for you. The poor Tao also fought with it, watched its spells, and created a sword to practice the method, which can be passed on to you.
Guan Yin listened to Laozi's words that he was not suitable for practicing the Taiqing Immortal Method, and he was depressed. But after listening to my next words, I was ecstatic. At this time, in the world, the ancient gods gradually became legends, and there were few believers in all kinds of religion, but the interception of Tongtian is still the first of the four religion. This is the accumulation of the three emperors and five emperors, and the great disaster of the gods through the sky, which cannot be compared with the other three teachings.
As a human race, Guan Yin naturally knew the name of the sky. When he heard that he could get the cultivation formula of the sky, he couldn't help but feel excited.
When I saw Guan Yin's expression, I sighed in my heart. The interception was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even when I was not happy, I could still achieve such an achievement, which made me jealous. At the moment, I cleaned up my mood and gave the sword practice to Long Mei. After thinking about it for a while, he gave him the "two instruments of dust array" of the top guardians taught by others, and also gave him the "innate one gas too clear charm" refined in the gossip furnace as the spiritual treasure of the town.
Guan Yin took it with great joy and looked at the jealousy in the hearts of the lamp-burning Taoist people. At the same time, the lamp-burning Taoist also found the fluctuation in my heart just now, which was secretly remembered in his heart.
I took a look at Guan Yin and said lightly, "All these things have happened, and it's time for the poor road." After saying that, he walked out with the burning lamp.
Seeing this, Guan Yin hurriedly got up to see him off.
When the three of them came out of the Hangu Pass, Laozi turned to the long eyebrows who saw him off and said, "This is not the place of practice. After you pass on my Tao Te Ching to the world, you will go to Mount Emei in Shu to practice." After saying that, I went to Hanguguan with the burning lamp.
