MTL - Prehistoric: A Stable Life, Starting From the Journey To the West-Chapter 32
When Chen Qi thought of this, he only felt that the Westward Journey was becoming more and more confusing.
Chapter 60 The Buddha is the Tao, it's not a simple Jinghe Dragon King! (for collections, for flowers)
Don't say that Taoism is to repay the cause and effect of inviting the two Western sages in the original battle of conferring gods, so it is only allowed to spread Buddhism eastward and make Buddhism flourish.
Because as long as the brain is not kicked hundreds of times by the donkey, it is impossible to come up with such a plot.
The reason is very simple. The Buddhism in Journey to the West is not a Western religion established by the two Western sages, but a Theravada Buddhism composed of the disciples of the three religions.
Most of the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas come from the teachings and interceptions.
Therefore, in essence, Lingshan Buddhism in Journey to the West is still a line of Taoism, and it can be said that Buddha is originally Tao.
So you say that Journey to the West is a Daoist plan to make Lingshan Buddhism flourish?
Do you believe this statement yourself?
Thinking how the Yuanshi Tianzun pays attention to face, it would be strange if the direct disciples under his sect really betrayed him, so that they can live well.
There is no need to do it yourself, as long as you say something casually, some supernatural powers are willing to help him clear the door and gain the friendship of a saint.
Not to mention that there are also Guangchengzi, Taiyi Zhenren, Nanji Xianweng and others in the sect. If Daoist Cihang and others really apostate, these guys would have been fighting for life and death with Lingshan Fomen.
After all, traitors are sometimes more hateful than enemies.
Thinking about Yang Jian again, Nezha and others face the attitude of Guanyin Tathagata and others, it is not difficult to find the tricky part here.
Therefore, Chen Qi is more willing to believe that Daoism has made some big moves, rather than repaying the cause and effect of the two Western sages.
It's a pity that Chen Qi knows too few clues, all guesses are from the myths and legends of the previous life.
It's hard to tell if it's true or not, and I'm even more confused about the Buddhist Journey to the West, and I can't understand it.
As for the Jinghe Dragon King?
Looking back now, it's not really innocent and stupid!
"Then if the Jinghe Dragon King took the initiative to participate in this matter, what was it for?"
"Because of the orders of the Heavenly Court and the Dragon Clan, are you still planning the benefits of Journey to the West for your youngest son, Xiao Tulong?"
Chen Qi's brain was spinning rapidly, constantly recalling information about the Jinghe Dragon King in later generations.
Finally had to come to a conclusion!
This old dragon is not as simple as it seems. The possibility of taking the initiative to participate in Journey to the West and becoming a member of the plan is as high as 90%.
Because Chen Qi recalled a detail in the original Journey to the West.
That is to say, the youngest son of the Jinghe Dragon King, Xiao Tulong occupied the Heihe River and prevented Tang Seng from obtaining scriptures.
Xiao Tulong's performance can be said to be commendable. Not only has he fought back and forth with Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha, but he can also have two moves with Sun Wukong, and his strength cannot be said to be weak.
Well, at least the terrestrial immortals started, and it is impossible to say that they are already first-class real immortals!
After that, Sun Wukong intercepted the invitation card sent by the Dragon King of the West Sea to Xiao Tulong. Sun Wukong immediately knew the origin of Xiao Tulong and went to the West Sea Dragon Palace to ask his guilt.
In the Dragon Palace of the West Sea, Sun Wukong once asked the origin and situation of Xiao Tulong, the Dragon King of the West Sea.
Then the Dragon King of the West Sea said that Xiao Tulong is the youngest son of the Dragon King of Jinghe outside Chang'an City, and also his nephew, and he has eight older brothers.
Well, Jinghe Dragon King will not talk about it.
The focus is on Xiao Tulong's eight older brothers, the other eight sons of the Jinghe Dragon King.
The eight sons of the Jinghe Dragon King can be said to be extraordinary!
The first little yellow dragon: Seeing living in Huaidu, he is king in the Huaihe River.
The second little Lilong: See living in Jidu, guarding Jishui.
The third green-backed dragon: occupies Jiangdu, which is the Yangtze River.
The fourth red-bearded dragon: guards Hedu, the river here refers to the Yellow River, guards the Yellow River.
The fifth vain dragon: the bell with the Buddha, who is in charge of, grasps, and is responsible for the time, the Buddha's bell ringer.
The sixth beast-stabilizing dragon: Zhenji with the priest, is the sacred beast of the ridge, that is, the sacred beast guarding the backbone of the palace.
The seventh Jingzhong dragon: guards the Qingtianhua watch with the Jade Emperor, and guards the beast dragon that guards the Qingtianhua watch on the jade pillar in the heaven.
The eighth mirage: According to Taiyue, Taiyue is Wudang up and down the Han River, it should be the water **** of the Han River.
Only the ninth son, Tuolong, is the most unsatisfactory. Because he is young and has no deacon, he lives in the black river to nourish his life.
Well, it means that Xiao Tulong is the most unsatisfactory. First, he is thrown into the Heishui River as a water **** to sharpen his temperament. After he has gained a reputation, he is considering promotion and dispatched to a feng shui treasure land.
He meows, this is completely because he doesn't want to know, he is startled when he thinks about it.
Who would have thought that the Jinghe Dragon King, who was regarded as a confused ghost and an unjustly dead dragon, would be so terrifying as a family.
Not only is it closely related to the Dragon Palace in the West Sea, but it also occupies the Yangtze River, Yellow River, Huai River, Jishui, etc. It has almost wiped out the major water veins on the eastern land from the source.
In addition, the fifth son of the Jinghe Dragon King followed the Buddha, and the seventh son followed the Jade Emperor.
With such a network, you told me that he was killed because of a few drops of rain?
What a joke, really want to be like this, the sons of the Four Seas Dragon Palace and the Jinghe Dragon King don't fall out, it's a genius.
Therefore, Chen Qi dared to use his own head to pack a ticket, there must be a problem here.
"Then, what should I do myself?"
"Do you pretend that you don't know what to do, and make an ordinary friend with the old dragon in front of you, or do you remind me to deepen the friendship?"
Thinking of this, Chen Qi couldn't help frowning, feeling a little hard to decide.
The matter of Journey to the West is becoming more and more confusing, and he still has not understood the truth and purpose of Journey to the West.
Now that a set of four treasures of the study has been obtained, if it is sold, it will definitely not be short of money.
In addition, looking at the old dragon's obsession with his copybook, selling this copybook to him will definitely sell it for a good price and directly achieve financial freedom.
In such a situation, is it necessary to be involved in the huge cause and effect of Journey to the West? .
Chapter 61: Brother Ao, I have made a deal with you as a friend! (For collection, please subscribe)
"Good words, good articles, really good articles!"
"Mr. is really talented, and this article alone is enough to be passed down through the ages."
On Xiaonan Mountain, Jinghe Dragon King reluctantly moved his gaze away from "Inscription of the Shabby Room" and looked at Chen Qi with a look of admiration.
"The Dragon King praised me wrongly, but I just wrote it out of my hands. It just so happened that I received a heavy gift from the Dragon King and I can't repay it. If the Dragon King doesn't dislike it, this inscription will be given to the Dragon King. "
Chen Qi heard the praise of the Jinghe Dragon King, and his mind instantly recovered from the Westward Journey, and said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, he walked to the stone table again, and after the "Inscription of the Shabby Room", he picked up a pen and wrote: "On the nineteenth of June in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Chang'an Xiaonansan happened to meet the Lord of the Jinghe River. , give it to Brother Ao!"
"Chen Ziming!"
At the end, he also added his name to the last paragraph of the copybook and stamped it with a private seal to show that it was written by Chen Qi himself and not added by later generations.
"How to make, how to make!"
Jinghe Dragon King was very excited when he saw that Chen Qi really wanted to give the copybook to him.
The mouth said that it could not be done, it could not be done.
But the pair of dragon eyes stared round and round, rubbed their hands together and cracked their mouths, smiling like a fat man weighing 300 pounds.
At this time, the Jinghe Dragon King couldn't help sighing in his heart. He was worthy of being a scholar and a great talent of Confucianism.
This is a set of words, just to make people feel comfortable to listen to.
He didn't really care about a piece of Confucian calligraphy. After all, with his status and strength, it was absolutely simple to collect a few Confucian copybooks.
However, there are many great Confucian copybooks in the world, but there are very few articles praising the dragon.
If such an article is hung on the wall of his own crystal palace, it will make Long face a lot.
"Since Mr. said so, I have the cheek to accept the old dragon."
"It's just that this article is a famous article through the ages, and it was written by the gentleman himself. It is extremely precious. It is only a set of four treasures of the study, but Lao Long has taken advantage of it."
"Lao Long was in a hurry to go out today, he didn't bring too many things, he only took a few precious jades and two bright pearls. Although these two things are less than one ten thousandth of the previous masterpiece, they are still in the heart of Lao Long. I hope Mr. Take it."
Jinghe Dragon King carefully put away the copybook, and then took it out of his arms, took out six pieces of pure white jade and two fist-sized luminous pearls, placed them on the stone table, and said ashamedly.
Chen Qi looked at the jade bi and orb on the stone table, and then turned around to listen to the ashamed words of the Jinghe Dragon King.
The word "handy" is really good to use.
Although Chen Qi didn't understand jade and gems very well, not knowing doesn't mean he is blind.
Just seeing the aura that blinds people's eyes on the jade bi and orb in front of you, you can know how valuable these jade bi and orb are.
"What does the Dragon King mean? Do you think Chen is a greedy person?"
Chen Qi frowned and said in a deep voice.
Although he was greedy for money, he was not greedy. He knew very well that although his copybooks could sell for a good price, they were far inferior to the few treasures that the Jinghe Dragon King took out.
Not to mention, with these few jade pieces and orbs, will the Jinghe Dragon King look down on himself.
It is very difficult to pass if you are alone.
Of course, if it is only a jade bi, or a jewel.
That's fine, because Chen Qi is confident that his work can still be worth the price, but at most the selling price is a little higher.
Now that there are six jade pieces and two orbs, they cannot be accepted.
Because there are too many.
This may sound difficult to understand. After all, you are waiting for the Jinghe Dragon King to make a lot of money.
As a result, the Dragon King of the Jinghe River bought your calligraphy and painting, and you don't give too much away. Isn't this sick?
However, Chen Qi doesn't think so, because he also has his own bottom line.
For example, if you paint a painting, the market value is 100 yuan.
Then other courtyards are willing to spend two or three hundred to buy your paintings, you may be very happy, and feel that when you meet Bole, others really like your paintings.
However, if someone paid one million to buy your calligraphy and painting with a market price of one hundred, how would you react?
Can you still sell paintings to others with peace of mind?
I'm afraid you won't dare to sell it if others give you money.
Besides, if your calligraphy and painting are sold for thousands of times by this person, are you willing to sell it to others for a hundred times next time?
Do you still expect that person to spend a million to buy your calligraphy and painting?
In this way, you will unknowingly have expectations and dependence on that person, and you will accept the charity of others with peace of mind.
The consequences of this are undoubtedly very dire. …
Chen Qi calculated that the Dragon King of the Jinghe River was not fake, and it was also true that he wanted to make a fortune from him, but he did not want to use this method.
If you take too much, you will owe Jinghe Dragon King's favor, which is undoubtedly the result that Chen Qi does not want to see.
Compared with the Jinghe Dragon King buying his calligraphy and painting at ten times and a hundred times the super high price, he would rather achieve his goal by stealing, robbing, conspiracy, etc.
Because, even if he steals and deceives the Jinghe Dragon King, he can feel at ease, and this is also his own labor income.
He may be guilty, but he won't owe the King of Jinghe, let alone feel inferior to the King of Jinghe.
Therefore, facing the temptation of jade bi and orb, Chen Qi directly chose to refuse.
It is said that an old man becomes a shrewd person, how can the Jinghe Dragon King be described as an old man and a shrewd person? He just glanced at Chen Qi and guessed Chen Qi's thoughts, and immediately apologized: "Sir don't want it. Misunderstanding, please listen to Lao Long speak slowly!"
"If it were written by other Confucian scholars, even if it was a first-grade Confucian text in the realm of the unity of nature and man, it would only be worth 10,000 taels of red gold. I will give him a luminous pearl, Lao Long."
"Of course, Mr.'s article is not only a masterpiece handed down from the world, but also in line with my dragon family. This alone is worth one hundred thousand gold, and it cannot be exchanged for non-treasures."
"I also know that Mr. Long has a noble character, and he doesn't look down on yellow and white things. I don't dare to stain Mr.'s eyes with gold and silver, so I offer jade bi and orbs."
"Although these items are less than 1/10,000th of Mr.'s article, they are also the wishes of the old dragon, and I hope Mr. will accept them."
