Chapter 563: Lingshan Project
"Senior, what happened back then?" Chen Luo pondered for a long time and asked.
"What are you referring to? Is it the destruction of the destruction of the destruction of the heavenly palace... After all, this is just one thing." Li Jing said halfway, paused for a moment, and smiled bitterly.
"Then please tell me the specific situation of the devil disaster that year." Chen Luo frowned and said.
Regarding the magic disaster, what he knows now is very limited, and more of it is the legend that has not yet come true in reality. If he can really know the details of the magic disaster in advance, perhaps he may be able to stop it after returning to reality.
Thinking of this, Chen Luo himself believed that he was the one who was waiting for in the soul of the King of Tota.
"My memory is incomplete, and I can only tell you something I know. As for the truth behind it, you need to explore and piece it together yourself." Li Jing pondered for a moment and said.
"Senior, but it's okay..." Chen Luo hurriedly said.
"A war that swept across the Three Realms in ancient times came to an end. The demon clan leader Chi You was defeated, his head was cut off, his limbs were cut off, and his soul was sealed. From then on, the three realms had a relatively stable time. But the demons and demons were still invincible in the hearts of the Three Realms. Some demons tried to untie the seal and lead Chi You to reappear on the earth." Li Jing said.
Chen Luo knew a little about these things, but he did not interrupt Li Jing and asked him to continue talking.
"Later, the heaven and earth began to move abnormally, the earth's veins were no longer stable, and monsters were everywhere on earth, and the chaos in the three realms began. Whether it was the gods and Buddhas in the heavenly court or the powerful people in the earth, they all noticed that the wind and rain were coming. The heavenly court was grateful that the demonic disaster occurred from the demon clan, and should also start with the demon clan. So the Jade Emperor and the Buddha of the West, Tathagata, joined forces to formulate a Lingshan plan." Li Jing continued.
"Lingshan Plan?" Chen Luo felt very confused.
"You must know the Lingshan Plan back then, but you have to change the name, called 'Go to the West'." Seeing the different expression of Shen Luo, Li Jing's eyes were slightly sunken and said.
"What? The matter of Master Xuanzang's journey to the west and seeking scriptures was the Lingshan plan?" Chen Luo's expression suddenly changed and he said in surprise.
This story is widely circulated among the people, and some people have even written this legendary experience into a novel, so the story of their master and disciple who have experienced hardships and seeking the true scriptures is no stranger to the story.
But for some reason, after returning to Chang'an, the five masters and disciples only held an unprecedentedly huge water and land conference in the Dacien Temple in the city. Then Master Sanzang announced that he would enter the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to translate scriptures. Since then, he has rarely appeared again.
The three disciples with great supernatural powers who were rumored to disappear, and they no longer became known to the world, so many people later regarded that epic experience as a fabrication by literati. How much real elements are there to be discussed.
"It's normal for you not to know this. The Lingshan Plan back then was a secret of heaven since its inception. There were very few people who knew the inside story, including the Jade Emperor, Buddha, Taishang Laojun, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Maitreya Buddha and Bodhi Patriarch. The total number was no more than ten. Even the five masters and disciples themselves were not aware of it at the beginning." Li Jing continued.
"Since it is so secretive, is it the real purpose of their work? It is not to seek the true scriptures?" Chen Luo frowned.
"It can only be said that it is not entirely true. After all, within the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the affairs of demons were becoming more and more serious? The world of people's hearts and the world was gradually deteriorating, and people needed to be transformed by Mahayana Buddhism. After all, a person's mind changes into a human heart, a country's mind changes into a harmonious person, and a world's mind changes into a heavenly fortune. If the general trend is good, the turbid air in the world can be eliminated, and the great disaster can be transformed into invisible." Li Jing shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Chen Luo sighed in his heart that in the era he lived in, Mahayana Buddhism had been spread in the Tang Dynasty, Buddhist temples were built one after another, and monks also walked and preached in the world, but the devil's affairs were still getting worse and worse.
"Relying on Buddhism to save you...not to mention how much time it takes, it is so difficult to just talk about the world's learning and worshiping Buddha?" He couldn't help but speak.
"So, this is only part of the Lingshan Plan. As for the other part, it is to release the wind and say that eating the flesh of Tang Sanzang can seize the creation of immortality and cultivate supreme magic power. Use this as bait to lure those demons who are sneaky and lurk in the dark, thereby capturing them all in one place and cutting off the risk of disaster." Li Jing continued.
"Good method, not to mention how many hidden monsters in this world were tempted and eventually killed one by one, just taking Sun Wukong's generation of demon kings into Buddhism is a beautiful first move." Chen Luo couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's not as simple as you see. The Fighting and Fighting Buddha was transformed from the five-colored divine stone left by Nuwa's refining stones to repair the sky. It is not a true demon clan." Li Jing shook his head and said.
"Could it be that Sun Wukong was originally the arrangement of the heavenly realm?" Chen Luo vaguely guessed something.
"Otherwise, how could he be favored by Bodhi Patriarch and personally teach the changes of mysterious skills? Do you think that only Tang Sanzang, the only one who came to the scriptures? In fact, it is not true that Sun Wukong, Zhu Wuneng, Sha Wujing and Bailongma are all people who came to the scriptures. Each of them came to the world was arranged by the Heavenly Court and Lingshan." Li Jing smiled and said.
The light of inspiration flashed in his mind, recalling the legendary hardships on the journey to obtain the scriptures, and arises in his heart again:
"However, on the way their master and disciple went to the scriptures, many of the demons they encountered were transformed by the mounts of gods and Buddhas. Why is this?"
"While the Heavenly Court and Lingshan led to the devils to stop and kill them by seeking scriptures, they also differentiated them to a certain extent. Why didn't demons target Heavenly Court and Lingshan? They are also actively bewitching the immortals in heaven and Buddhists in the West. Many people with weak minds and dissatisfied with the principles of the Heavenly Court and the principles of the Heavenly Court also revealed their true appearance at this time." Li Jing explained.
"So that's it. Such a method is already quite powerful, but why did it fail in the end?" Chen Luo suddenly realized and asked in confusion.
"This... I'm afraid no one can say clearly. I can only say that there are days in the dark. Six or seven years after the master and disciple of Tang returned from the sutra, powerful people including Zhen Yuanzi and Bodhi Patriarch found that the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures failed to save the world, and the turbid air in the world still failed to change. The Lingshan Plan failed. At this time, another thing happened, and the situation became worse." Li Jing sighed leisurely and said.
