The fairy father

Ksitigarbha has a very special status in Western religion.

In the original planning of Western religions, they had different stages of development.

Just like the likes of Ernan and Jiafeng, they have been performing some "evil" tasks from ancient times to the present. They are like the black gloves of Western religions, breeding evil spirits, cultivating Taoist soldiers, cutting off the rise of the human race, trying to civilize the human race and let them The human race has become the cornerstone of Western religion.

The two leaders of the Western Church thought very clearly that this could only be done temporarily;

Relying on terror and intimidation to rule all living beings cannot last long, and it is easy for other forces to take advantage of the opportunity to target them.

So they also prepared backup plans.

Ksitigarbha and several other disciples who have not yet appeared are their back-up men.

When the time comes and the ulterior purposes of Western religions succeed, they will cleanse themselves and let Ksitigarbha and others take over the teaching affairs of Western religions and spread their goodness and beauty in the world.

They can even put on a show for all living beings to see, asking Ksitigarbha and other young disciples to stand up to 'rectify the chaos' and 'drive out the evil demons', and let Ernan and Jiafeng hide behind the scenes, and then find a suitable opportunity to kill the evil demons.

Li Ping'an opened the Western religion's pamphlet, and the word "Plan" was written all over it.

It's just a pity that things didn't develop as Western religions thought.

Western religion has lost power, and Heaven has risen.

Nowadays, the reputation of Western religion has become extremely bad, and Ksitigarbha's disciples are of no use anymore.

But it is undeniable that Ksitigarbha has always been instilled with good thoughts. He has not done any evil or had any karma, and he is even recognized by the Twelve-Rank Golden Lotus.

Li Pingan thought carefully.

If he attacks Ksitigarbha directly, he may provoke the saint to take action;

But if nothing is done, Ksitigarbha is the key for Western religion to reach out to the underworld.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, I will never become a Buddha until hell is empty.

‘The birth of Buddhism should have happened after the Great Tribulation of Conferring Gods. ’

‘The Great Tribulation of the Gods is imminent and will start in a few decades at most. Ksitigarbha’s enlightenment here should be related to his future entry into the underworld. ’

‘I really need to interfere with Ksitigarbha. The underworld is an important cornerstone of my heaven. How can I let Buddhism interfere with reincarnation? ’

Li Pingan calculated with his fingers for a while, and roughly understood the connection behind it.

Ksitigarbha will build a Buddhist kingdom in the underworld to save the dead and admonish evil ghosts as a peripheral supplement to the underworld.

This Buddhist kingdom can help reincarnation become more stable and will also become the foundation of luck for the rise of Buddhism.

Buddhist teachings advise living beings to be patient and accumulate blessings for the next life, which is perfectly consistent with the tendency of heaven to suppress living beings.

Therefore, it can be seen that the way of heaven itself is intentionally cultivating Buddhism.

‘I, the Emperor of Heaven, used to rely on the Dao of Heaven and rely on the support of the Dao of Heaven to establish the Heavenly Court. In the future, I will go against the Dao of Heaven to protect the Taoist sect, the human race, and maintain the number of living masters. ’

‘There should be a balance between heaven and man. ’

‘This job is really difficult to do, I almost want to mess it up. ’

Li Ping'an's little soul looked up to the sky and sighed.

He transformed into an old man from the Shura tribe who was seriously injured and on the verge of death. He also had a pair of horns on his head. He went further to the bottom of the abyss and slowly approached Ksitigarbha's hiding place.

Inside the stubborn rock where Ksitigarbha is hiding.

The big blue and white dog lying next to Ksitigarbha suddenly raised its six small ears, raised its head and looked at the old man from the Shura tribe walking in the distance, and then turned to look at Ksitigarbha.

For a moment, it didn't know whether to remind its young master.

The light in the abyss is very dim, and the only light source may be the eyes of those ghosts hiding everywhere.

But in Listening's ears, the old man from the Shura tribe was surrounded by the sound of chanting sutras, and he was even more blessed by the supreme true meaning.

Except for the saints, there are no more than ten masters in the entire Three Realms who have heard such visions.

Such a master suddenly appeared here and was heading this way...

Diting glanced at his master, lowered his head and rubbed against his leg.

"What's wrong?"

Ksitigarbha closed his eyes and responded, with a slight smile on his delicate face.

This is something gained from practice.

Listening to the message: "Master, there is a master disguised as Old Shura, please be careful."

"Yeah," Jizo responded and slowly opened his eyes.

The surrounding dead rocks turned into black sand and rustled down.

Ksitigarbha and the big blue and white dog appeared, stood up and bowed to Li Pingan from a distance.

Exposed?

Li Ping'an was slightly shocked.

Ksitigarbha's current cultivation level should be still far away from that of Daluo Jinxian. Logically speaking, he should not be exposed... Li Ping'an looked at the big six-eared dog and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Yes, listen carefully.

This mythical beast has a deep connection with the way of heaven and is quite miraculous.

When Li Ping'an used the authority of the Emperor of Heaven to investigate Ting Ting, he could see several colorful light bands entangled in Ting Ting's body.

This is the way of heaven that has given Tingting several talents and magical powers.

Simply, Li Ping'an stopped pretending. The old Shura he transformed into took a few steps forward. His figure had already crossed thousands of feet, and all the disguise around him was gone.

The black-robed Heavenly Emperor walked from the bottom of the abyss, and the ghosts, like snowmen who suddenly saw the sun, dodged towards the dark corners.

Ksitigarbha and his big blue and white dog looked at each other, both of them were a little shocked.

Li Pingan's figure stopped three feet away.

At this moment, he had already thought about how to 'arrange' Ksitigarbha and Tingting, and said warmly: "Why is my nephew here?"

"This," Ksitigarbha bowed again and saluted, "to report to Your Majesty, Xiao Dao occasionally had an idea. Since then, he has practiced and understood the principles of the original heart of living beings."

"Oh? Is there any gain?"

Li Ping'an strolled forward with his hands behind his back, and Ksitigarbha subconsciously took half a step back.

Li Ping'an smiled when he saw this: "Master nephew is afraid of me?"

Ksitigarbha didn't make any excuses. He put his hands together in salute and said seriously: "Both senior brothers died at the hands of His Majesty. I just feel sorry for you."

"Your two senior brothers are not kind people."

Li Pingan asked leisurely:

"In your opinion, was it right or wrong for me to kill Jiafeng and Ernan?"

Ksitigarbha remained silent.

Li Ping'an looked at Ksitigarbha's handsome face, as if he was going to fight if he disagreed.

Suddenly I heard a somewhat childish voice coming from beside Jizo’s feet:

“His Majesty the Emperor must have done the right thing.

"Master, your two senior brothers are full of evil. They have harmed countless living beings, terrorized and enslaved countless human beings. His Majesty, the Emperor of Heaven, killed them all for the sake of all living beings!

"Yes, Master, you always say this, Master, please reply quickly, Master."

Ksitigarbha smiled helplessly and nodded slowly: "In terms of justice, it is right."

"My nephew, this dog is quite smart," Li Ping'an said with a smile.

Ksitigarbha said: "Its name is Tingting, and it is not a dog."

"It's a dog, it's a dog, master," Di Ting said hurriedly, "His Majesty the Emperor said it's a dog, so we are dogs."

Ksitigarbha:…

Li Ping'an:...

Good guy, Li Ping'an can't stand it anymore.

"cough!"

Emperor Li Tiandi cleared his throat and continued to say pleasantly:

"My nephew may have some misunderstandings about me.

"I always deal with things rather than people. If I really wanted to target all the disciples of the Western Sect, I wouldn't have to wait for you two leaders to come back. I would have plenty of opportunities to take action against you.

"However, let's take you as an example. Although you have not done anything evil, you have also enjoyed the benefits brought by the evil deeds of those senior brothers."

Ksitigarbha nodded slightly: "Your Majesty is right. I do have a sin on my body, so I want to do more good deeds for peace of mind."

“Doing good is not easy.”

Li Pingan asked with a smile:

"How many good deeds has your nephew done now?"

"This, I feel ashamed to say it..."

Di Ting stood by and said, "My master has done a lot of good deeds! He has saved tens of thousands just by saving people! When he transformed into a little Taoist priest and walked around the world, he drove away monsters and killed evil spirits everywhere. Promote justice!”

Jizo smiled awkwardly and kicked the talkative big dog away.

Li Pingan almost laughed out loud.

Listening carefully, I feel so sorry for my life.

Ksitigarbha was also included in the Tao and whispered:

“The good deeds that Ksitigarbha has done are nothing more than what you can see and work with your hands. It’s nothing. Any immortal can do it.

"Your Majesty established the order of the cauldron, opened up the three realms, destroyed the barriers, established the heaven, established the reincarnation, destroyed the sea of ​​blood, and destroyed the inner heaven. All the great benevolences here are beyond the reach of Ksitigarbha.

"It's just that Ksitigarbha is a disciple of the Western Sect. There is always some gap between Your Majesty and the Western Sect. In private, Ksitigarbha must face His Majesty... from the side."

"It's better to face each other side by side."

Li Pingan nodded slowly:

"I didn't come to the underworld specifically to look for you today. I just stumbled across your traces and came down to have a chat.

"I ask you three questions. Your answers may have some impact on you and the Western religion that educated you."

Ksitigarbha said seriously: "Listen quietly to His Majesty's teachings."

"First question, if you were thousands of years ago and had the ability to stop Venerable Jiafeng from doing something, would you take action or persuade him?"

"Of course I will."

Ksitigarbha's face looked a little more gloomy:

"Actually, if Jie Jiao hadn't hit Lingshan that time, we wouldn't have known what the senior brothers were doing.

"Since we were young, we have followed two teachers to practice. We only focus on practice and don't care about other things."

Li Ping'an added: "Now the Western Church has also publicly wanted Maitreya. If Maitreya appears in front of you with a serious injury and asks you to save his life, will you save him?"

Ksitigarbha did not hesitate and said softly: "I will save him."

Di Ting was almost anxious.

Li Ping'an smiled and asked why. Ksitigarbha pondered for a few times and said slowly: "Because he is my senior brother."

"But Ksitigarbha saved this creature. This creature has been full of evil before and will kill millions of creatures in the future. Do you really want to save it?"

"When Ksitigarbha saved him, he was just Ksitigarbha's senior brother."

Ksitigarbha smiled frankly:

"Ksitigarbha is willing to save him, and then go to heaven to accept his guilt, and bear the same responsibility as him on the principle that the one who protected him is equally guilty.

"Perhaps saying no help can show the so-called righteousness.

"But Ksitigarbha really can't say it and can't do it."

Li Ping'an's smile gradually faded, and he said slowly: "This third question, if one day, your two teachers are going to commit unforgivable evil acts against all living beings, would you be willing to stand in front of them with your arms crossed?"

Ksitigarbha nodded firmly.

He said: "Although I don't think the two teachers will turn their backs on all sentient beings, if that day comes, Ksitigarbha will do what is necessary."

"good."

Li Pingan said slowly:

"The answers to these three questions are good. You continue to practice while I go back to heaven to get busy."

Ksitigarbha was puzzled: "Your Majesty showed up just to ask me a few questions?"

"otherwise?"

Li Pingan smiled and said:

"Even if I want to kill you, I have to have a reason.

"You didn't commit murder or arson, and you did good deeds and accumulated a lot of merit. Why should I kill you?

"Practice, your great path is also very important to this world."

Li Ping'an raised his hand and patted Ksitigarbha's shoulder.

Ksitigarbha was stunned in place, and when he came back to his senses and turned around to look, there was no trace of Li Ping'an, only a trace of the Heavenly Emperor's Tao Yun remained behind.

"Master...master?"

Di Ting sat at Ji Zang's feet, raised her paw and poked Ji Zang, and muttered:

"The Emperor of Heaven is gone, please come back to your senses quickly."

Jizo sat down on the futon behind him, his eyes were a little stunned, and there was a little cold sweat on his back.

Di listened and said, "The Emperor of Heaven just now definitely had murderous intentions. Master, if you answered wrongly, we might both be buried in this gutter today."

"He won't take action, the teacher can sense it."

Ksitigarbha smiled bitterly:

"It's really terrible. The Heavenly Emperor has only practiced for less than a thousand years, but he is already the top power in the world. We have been practicing hard for tens of thousands of years, and now we are still a little short of the Great Luo Jinxian.

"Moreover, he is still just, and we are still unjust."

Di Ting is a bit hesitant to speak.

It actually wanted to persuade its master to keep some distance from those in the church in the future.

It can hear the voices of all sentient beings;

Even in the face of some masters, as long as these masters are not deliberately wary, they can still get a rough idea.

From top to bottom in the Western sect, only my master and a group of young disciples who only know how to practice can be regarded as 'coming out of the mire without being stained'. Most of the other masters are...

Remove the silt and spread evenly.

"Master, the Emperor of Heaven is quite nice. In fact, he even encouraged you in the end."

Listen carefully to the oblique advice:

"You see, there is a deputy leader of Randen in the Chan Cult. The deputy leader of Randen has a worse background. His body is the bronze coffin lamp brought by the transcendent. But he has a clear stand and identifies himself as a primitive creature. He also got the Yuanshi Tianzun respects you."

"What do you want to say?"

Ksitigarbha pouted slightly:

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, what do you know?"

Di Ting rolled her eyes.

It knows a lot.

This family depends entirely on it!

…

After a while.

Li Ping'an flashed into the Lingxiao Palace and sent for his father. He asked his father to sit aside and briefly told the story of how he met Ksitigarbha in the underworld.

Li Dazhi scratched his head and said with a smile:

“Ksitigarbha is quite good, but I don’t know what will happen in the future.

"As for what you said, Western religion may reach out to the underworld. You should be careful about this in advance. The six paths of reincarnation are too important."

Li Ping'an stretched out: "I'm going to give Ksitigarbha a reward."

"ah?"

Li Dazhi glared and said, "Aren't you an enemy?"

"Capitalizing the enemy? What does this mean?"

Li Pingan smiled and said:

"The attitude of heaven from now on is to scold the two saints of Western religions and praise Ksitigarbha."

"I understand, let's kill him."

Li Dazhi clicked his tongue: "Why do you feel that your son is a little wilted now? This is a good plan. I will arrange it right away."

"Well, just give Ksitigarbha a patrolling god, use some gorgeous rhetoric for the decree, and then send a powerful heavenly god to issue the decree."

Li Pingan said:

“Not only the Heavenly Court, but also the Human Race has asked King Dong to make arrangements.

“No matter how noble or righteous he is, praise Ksitigarbha as much as he wants, write some books for him, and make up some stories for him.

"There is also his mythical beast Listening. Listening is also quite interesting. Let's praise it together."

"Okay! I'll make arrangements right away! Is there anything else?"

"never mind."

Li Dazhi turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned around to remind: "Don't forget, Li Jing and the others have been hiding outside Dong'an City for some time."

Li Ping'an smiled and said: "Don't worry, Dad, I was just delayed in making the little man before. I'll go find him after taking a rest."

Li Dazhi chuckled and gave Li Pingan a thumbs up.

The two daughters-in-law are pregnant together.

Li Dazhi now walks with a sense of joy, as if he has heard the crisp calls of "Grandpa, Grandpa".

Laojun’s elixir is amazing.

Li Dazhi left the Lingxiao Palace and descended on the clouds towards the Tongming Palace below. Before he could reach the palace gate, the gatekeeper came hurriedly to find him and handed him an invitation.

"Jie Jie? Invite me as a guest?"

Li Dazhi held the jade-shaped invitation and stood in front of the Tongming Hall without moving for a long time.

He thought about his pet panther.

This time, he should go for a walk.
