Several apprentices laughed and laughed for a while, and then a group of soldiers in armor came towards them.

Wukong quickly saw it clearly: "Master, this is Lingshan, a holy land of Buddhism. How come there are heavenly soldiers and generals? Aren't they guarding the heavenly palace?"

Ye Yunyang was also a little confused: "No matter what, you must be vigilant about everything before you get the scriptures."

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the sky.

"Congratulations, you have finally reached Lingshan after all the hardships."

The four masters and disciples looked up and saw Guanyin appearing from nowhere, sitting on the clouds and smiling at them.

Ye Yunyang quickly put his hands together and paid homage to Guanyin.

"I would also like to thank Guanyin Bodhisattva for protecting me along the way. Otherwise, the four of us, master and disciple, would not have gone so smoothly."

Guanyin smiled and shook her head: "It's a small effort, but it's not worth mentioning. However... there are many dangers in Lingshan. I can't help you. You should be more careful."

Bajie couldn't understand: "Guanyin Bodhisattva, we've already reached Lingshan Mountain, why is there still danger? There can't be monsters here, right?"

Guanyin said: "It's not a monster, it's Tathagata."

"What happened to Tathagata?"

"Buddha has encountered some unpleasant things recently and is not in a good mood. You should deal with it carefully. I will leave first."

Sun Wukong shook his head, a little puzzled.

"The Tathagata is a great achiever. He has long since given up the three poisons of greed, anger and ignorance. He has no emotions at all. How can he still be angry? And why are he angry?"

Ye Yunyang didn't understand either, but now was not the time to think about this, the heavenly soldiers and generals had already walked in front of them.

"Holy Monk, Great Sage, congratulations on your arrival at Lingshan. Buddha is already waiting for you. Please come with us."

"Please help me lead the way."

Ye Yunyang said and followed with several disciples.

The heavenly soldiers and generals led them to Lingshan Mountain. The Buddha was sitting directly above him. The hall was empty except for the Buddha.

As soon as he came in, Ye Yunyang looked towards Buddha and quietly looked at his expression.

Sure enough, the Tathagata I usually see is kind and kind, but today he looks a little angry.

"Disciple Ye Yunyang, pay homage to the Buddha."

Ye Yunyang knelt down with his hands clasped together, and several disciples also knelt beside him, saluting the Buddha.

"Meet the Buddha."

Sure enough, Tathagata did not ask them to get up immediately, but asked them coldly.

"Ye Yunyang, you actually still have the heart to obtain the true scriptures. You have made so many mistakes. Do you think you can still obtain the true scriptures?"

Ye Yunyang had known that the Tathagata would ask this question, so he asked in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "My disciple is stupid, please give me a clear explanation from the Buddha."

Tathagata didn't hide it from him and told him directly.

"Did you kill any living being on your way to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures? Did you break the prohibition on killing?"

"Breaked the killing habit?"

Ye Yunyang was thoughtful and remembered the words that the big turtle said before he died.

"You will have retribution, Tathagata will not let you go..."

Looking at the angry Tathagata again, Ye Yunyang finally realized what he understood.

The Buddha's words continued: "Although you have gone through a lot of hardships along the way, at the last moment, you broke the prohibition on killing and fell short of success. I'm sorry, I can't give you this scripture. You can go back."

Wukong immediately stopped: "What does this mean? We came all the way here and you are telling us this?"

Bajie also muttered quietly, expressing his dissatisfaction.

"It's just... how can you do things like this?"

Sha Monk looked at this and that, not knowing what to say, so he had to remain silent.

Ye Yunyang suddenly shouted "Shut up", and the two apprentices immediately shut up, and the hall suddenly became quiet.

Ye Yunyang raised his finger and pointed at Buddha: "This is all your conspiracy, right?"

Tathagata was stunned for a moment, obviously feeling guilty, but he quickly returned to normal.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ye Yunyang sneered: "Stop pretending, I know everything. That big turtle at the foot of Lingshan Mountain was sent by you, right? He deliberately let him plot against us and lure us into breaking the killing ban, right?"

Buddha's eyes flickered and he did not dare to look into Ye Yunyang's eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Monks don't lie. You just slandered the Buddha and violated another precept. You are upset and destined to fail to obtain the true scripture. You should go back and practice hard."

After saying that, he quickly told the young novice next to him: "Send off the guests."

Ye Yunyang didn't move.

"You want to send us away? It's not that easy. I know everything. In fact, the entire plan to obtain scriptures from the West is a conspiracy of yours, right? From the beginning, you never wanted to give us scriptures, right?

?”

The Buddha was even more surprised. He could hardly keep the gentleness on his face, so he quickly straightened his face and taught Ye Yunyang a lesson.

"You have been cultivating for ten lifetimes, and you have some merits. Now you actually say such words to the Buddha. Lingshan can't keep you. Leave now!"

Several young novice monks came forward quickly: "Holy monk, please."

Wukong took out his golden cudgel and threatened them: "Who dares to come here? Don't blame me, Sun, for being rude to him!"

The little novice monk was frightened and hid far away. No one dared to come over.

The matter had reached this point, and his face was already torn. Ye Yunyang didn't care about anything else and simply told everything.

His hand entered the system, took out something, and threw it on the main hall in front of Buddha.

"You should be familiar with this thing, right?"

The Buddha looked down and was startled. He was a little panicked and a little scared. His whole body felt bad.

"You...how do you have this thing?"

Seeing that he was feeling guilty, Ye Yunyang felt relieved.

"I know everything. You don't have to pretend anymore, and you don't have to say anything high-sounding to me."

At this point, Buddha could not say a word, but Ye Yunyang continued to speak.

"This matter of seeking Buddhist scriptures was a conspiracy planned by you from beginning to end. Poor us masters and disciples, we were so stupid that we believed you and fell into your trap."

Tathagata's heart felt cold, knowing that the matter had been completely exposed.

The journey to learn is long, and his plan has already emerged. Ye Yunyang and his disciples are not easy to get rid of, and it will be a matter of time before they discover them.

Thinking of this, the Buddha lamented in his heart. After all, paper cannot cover the fire. If he had known that this would happen, he should have revised his plan at the beginning.

"It doesn't matter if you don't give us the scriptures. You are no longer the Tathagata you were before. Your scriptures are of no use to us, and we don't want them at all."

Wukong and others were puzzled. They had rarely seen Ye Yunyang lose such a temper, let alone in front of the Buddha.

Bajie quietly touched Wukong's arm: "Elder brother, master, what's going on?"

Wukong was always quick-tempered, but now he is even more anxious: "You ask me? Who am I asking? How do I know?"

Bajie couldn't afford to offend him, so he had to keep silent.
