Chapter 300: Distinguish between public and private matters

Chapter 300: Distinguish between public and private matters "Why, you want to stand up?" The lazy, ruffian voice is very recognizable. The unkempt old Taoist priest was wearing a Taoist robe covered with oil stains. At this moment, he was standing in front of Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin could see that the Qian Gua of the Eight Trigrams on the back of the robe had been covered with oil stains and turned into Kun Gua. What did the old man eat? Why is he eating so irritably? Jiang Lin thought to himself that at this moment, standing behind the old man, he no longer felt nervous at all. God knows how much pressure he felt facing a Buddhist master with great supernatural powers who was famous in the three realms. This has nothing to do with character, aptitude, or willpower. It is purely the suppression of the lower level by the unimaginable extraordinary power of a higher level. Even if Medicine Buddha had no ill will towards Jiang Lin, to be precise, he did not even take him seriously, so naturally there was no question of him having any ill will towards him. But the gaze from Medicine Buddha alone was enough to make Jiang Lin feel extremely pressured. It's okay now. Jiang Lin took a step sideways and came behind the old man, and his tense heart finally relaxed.

He held the old man's shoulder with one hand, half of his head sticking out from over the old man's shoulder, and pointed at the Medicine Buddha opposite, his voice full of the flavor of "taking advantage of the power of others". "Old man, I'm not one, come on!" Medicine Master Vaiduryaprabha Tathagata is the most powerful person in the three realms. It can even be said that he is stronger than Jue. After all, no matter what, Jue is only a part of the Queen Mother of the West. Even if he has inherited the Queen Mother of the West's divine power, it is still incomplete. But Medicine Buddha is different. He is a complete and perfect master with great supernatural powers. However, if this is the case with Medicine Buddha, isn’t it the same for Jiang Lin’s own old man? The Emperor of Fengdu, the King of the Underworld, has a status no lower than that of Medicine Buddha. Being two sides of the same coin does not mean that one is a vassal of the other. Both the Emperor Ziwei and the Emperor Fengdu are independent, but they have an inexplicable connection in terms of cause and effect. This connection complements each other. Because of the existence of Emperor Ziwei, the Emperor of Fengdu can sit in Fengdu and suppress the Heavenly Prison. It is precisely because of the existence of Emperor Fengdu that Emperor Ziwei can sit firmly in the position of the first among the Four Emperors. "Amitabha." After seeing the old Taoist, Medicine Buddha's expression remained calm. He just clasped his hands together and bowed slightly, expressing basic respect for a being of the same level. The old Taoist didn't act like a scoundrel, but nodded slightly as a return of courtesy. Then, he grinned and said, "Let's not waste any more time. I'll say it again. Do you want to set up a stick?" "Fellow Daoist Qingjia, you and I are not strangers. You should also know that I am not here for the reason you said." Medicine Buddha shook his head slightly, still keeping his hands clasped together, without any hostility in his body. The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and said, "It is precisely because I know that you are not the kind of person who can do this that I have told you so much." "Otherwise, I'll slap you in the face right from the start." The old Taoist picked his nose in a very ungraceful manner, and quickly picked out a nose-crack, then flicked his finger. 'Snapped……' That piece of stuff flew straight past the Medicine Buddha, passed through the lapis lazuli light of the Medicine Buddha without any hindrance, and landed on the back of the head of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

'puff! ' The dignified Buddha was knocked to the ground by this unspeakable thing, and he spit out blood uncontrollably. "Fellow……" Medicine Buddha blinked helplessly and said, "Why bother with this..." Dirty method. "You are an ignorant person who has been deceived. Logically, now that you are here, I should give you some face." The old Taoist said nonchalantly: "But, the matter of my apprentice cannot be left like this." Hearing this, Jiang Lin couldn't help but widen his eyes. He was not a fool. Although the conversation between Medicine Buddha and the old man was confined to this small space and other people present, including Jue, were unable to hear it, he heard it clearly. Although Buddhism is a latecomer, it has now developed into one of the most transcendent forces in the three realms, alongside Taoism. Such a large force naturally has factions within it. Not to mention anything else, just like the Four Great Emperors of Heaven each set up their own palaces, there are three Buddhas in Buddhism, a total of five Buddhas. It would be strange if there were no division of power among them and no Buddhist people who depend on them. Listen to the conversation between the old man and Medicine Buddha just now. It seems that Medicine Buddha is not here to support Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but... to clean up the mess? The reason why he blocked Fang Jue's attack was simply because, no matter what, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was his man and it was impossible for him to be punished by others. As for protecting one's own child, Jiang Linmen knows this very well and can understand it very well. And it seems that the old man and Medicine Buddha have met before, and they seem to have a good relationship? At least there is a certain understanding between each other. only…… A doubt arose in Jiang Lin's mind. If we say that what Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did in Uttarakuru was because he was deceived by others and thought that he did it at the instruction of Medicine Buddha. So, what kind of person could deceive a Buddha, not only making him believe it, but also hiding it from the eyes and ears of Medicine Buddha? Even now, when the matter was completely exposed, Medicine Buddha did not react. Moreover, I had to go through this process myself. As long as Medicine Buddha comes here, no matter what, he cannot stay out of it. First, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is protected. Second, no matter why Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did this, he is the man of Medicine Buddha. As long as this condition exists, Medicine Buddha cannot but consider the matter from the perspective of Buddhism and Akasagarbha Bodhisattva. In other words, when Medicine Buddha appeared, his position naturally stood opposite to Jiang Lin and others. The person behind the scenes not only treated Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva as a chess piece, but also plotted against Medicine Buddha. It was a complete conspiracy, forcing Medicine Buddha to appear in a hostile stance.

If this is true, then my appearance here and even the destruction of the black hole just now should also be part of the plan of the person behind the scenes. Jiang Lin had a sense of familiarity, not with the person behind the scenes, but with this layout. Because the old man had done this before, having Jiang Lin reveal something and using it as a clue to lead to bigger things. The drunkard's real intention is not drinking, it's just a by-product. It is almost the same as the current layout. The layout of the hungry ghost realm, the black hole of the Zunfo Temple in Uttarakuru, and the deception of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. All these arrangements are intended to bring out Medicine Buddha and make him stand against Heaven. Because even for the Heavenly Court, Medicine Buddha is a tricky existence, and no one dares to underestimate such a powerful person. So the question is, who is the one who can come up with such a thing? Jiang Lin thought to himself and looked in the direction of Xiniu Hezhou. Well, it’s really hard to guess. "Buddha..." After vomiting blood, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva got up from the ground. His whole body energy was a little weak. He quietly came to the side and stood behind Medicine Buddha. His expression remained calm, but his heart was in turmoil. No one is a fool. If Jiang Lin can analyze something from the conversation between Medicine Buddha and King Fengdu, then naturally he can do it too. So, I was cheated? Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's heart was shaking violently, just as Jiang Lin almost subconsciously guessed the real mastermind behind the scenes after hearing the conversation just now. He guessed it faster than Jiang Lin. Because it was so obvious, a complete conspiracy. "Buddha..." Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva spoke again, and in his voice there was a hint of deep-seated shame and anxiety. Medicine Buddha looked at him, shook his head slightly, and said nothing. "How about getting a charter?" The old Taoist picked his nose, looked at Medicine Buddha, and said, "It's you. If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to talk to me for more than three words." After saying that, the old Taoist sighed and said, "In the entire Buddhist community, there aren't many people I like, and you're one of them." "Thank you, Brother Qingjia, for giving me face." Medicine Buddha smiled and nodded, but there was a hint of helplessness in his smile. "This place is not for the ears of others. If you have anything to say, just speak it out." Upon hearing this, the old Taoist chuckled, stretched out his hand towards the Medicine Buddha, rubbed his thumb, index finger and middle finger together, then spread them out and shook them impatiently.

Medicine Buddha smiled more helplessly, raised his hand and touched the ground. Suddenly, a golden lotus appeared on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it grew to a height of one person. Medicine Buddha plucked the golden lotus and shook it in his hand. The original red-gold color suddenly faded away, and was replaced by the gorgeous brilliance of colored glaze. This glazed golden lotus, along with a piece of glazed lotus root, was shaken by Medicine Buddha and immediately turned into a glazed lamp. Inside the wick, which was made up of the pistil, was swaying a jade-colored flame. That tiny flame seemed to be burning real. Medicine Buddha smiled with satisfaction and slowly placed the glass lamp in the old Taoist's hand. The old Taoist weighed it, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Hey Hey……" The old Taoist smiled like a night owl, looked at Medicine Buddha, and sighed: "The three realms are really getting darker and darker. Even an honest person like you..." "hey-hey!" As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and smiled strangely. "No matter how honest a person is, he can't just take a beating without fighting back." Medicine Buddha also laughed, but he seemed more helpless than before. He shook his wrist and looked at the old Taoist. The old Taoist chuckled. "It seems that we still need to set up a stick." "We can't just go back like this." Medicine Buddha bowed slightly. The old Taoist shrugged indifferently and threw the glass lamp in his hand to Jiang Lin. next moment. 'boom! ! ! ! ’ The red-gold Buddha light and the fierce evil spirit burst out almost at the same time, shaking the nine-layer sky. The entire Uttarakuru Continent was trembling slightly. Just the burst of energy alone killed countless demons and evil spirits. For a moment, all eyes in the three realms were attracted by the terrifying aura here. No matter whether it was the Heaven Palace, Lingshan Mountain, or any other place, anyone with great supernatural powers would be watching the Buddha's light and the evil spirit. There are only a few people with great supernatural powers in the Three Realms. Once they really start fighting, the unique aura of each of them cannot be concealed. At least it will be seen by people at the same level. Jiang Lin stared blankly. Although it was an extremely astonishing and terrifying power, Jiang Lin did not feel anything. Firstly, it was because the old man was protecting him, and secondly, the gap was too big, so big that even Jiang Lin's spiritual sense of sensing danger had been annihilated. In his eyes, it was no longer a collision between evil spirit and Buddha's light, but a spark called "Tao" that was stirring and bursting. Every time the evil spirit and the Buddha's light come into contact, a different "Tao" will burst out, and every bit of fire is so eye-catching.

Jiang Lin couldn't help but immerse himself in it. 'laugh……' However, at this moment, the glass lamp in Jiang Lin's hand suddenly burst into light. The bean-shaped flame jumped violently. It was burning but not hurtful, and it also allowed Jiang Lin to break away from being immersed in the spark of Tao. Jiang Lin took two steps back suddenly, sweating all over. If it were a little later, I would probably be completely immersed in the spark of Tao. It is hard to say whether it is good or bad. Even if it is only the manifestation of the old man's own Tao, if Jiang Lin immerses himself in it, his realm may be greatly improved, but he will also lose the opportunity to condense his own unique Tao in the future. Not to mention, there is also the teachings of Medicine Buddha mixed in and colliding with it. Between the current realm improvement and his future path, Jiang Lin naturally chose the latter. But he didn't expect that what helped him get out of that strange state was the glass lamp from Medicine Buddha in his hand. Jiang Lin blinked, not surprised at all. It is true that this glass lamp came from Medicine Buddha, but it is an apology from Medicine Buddha to the old man. To be precise, it was the compensation that the old man asked for on behalf of Jiang Lin. To be honest, if Jiang Lin was the only one here, Medicine Buddha wouldn't even bother to look at him. The gap is too big. Even if he wants to make amends, he should give it to the old Taoist priest instead of Jiang Lin. The current situation is actually very clear. For some reasons, Medicine Buddha was tricked into coming here and in fact became the opposing party to Heaven. But from the perspective of Emperor Fengdu, there is some room for easing the situation. Heaven and Buddhism are one thing, while King Fengdu and Medicine Buddha are another thing. Although even those with great supernatural powers cannot escape from their respective positions, it does not prevent there from being considerable room for maneuver. The current situation is that Medicine Buddha knows that he is in the wrong and has accepted the fact that he was cheated. He gave private compensation in his own name, which is the glass lamp in his family's hand. This is from a personal perspective. But if we look at it from the perspective of Heaven and Lingshan, there must be a battle that all the powerful people in the Three Realms can see. The red-gold Buddha light and the pitch-black evil spirit are still in a stalemate. The oppressive feeling that was extremely shocking to everyone was just an appetizer for the two parties involved. The old Taoist even had time to turn his head and look at Jiang Lin. He glanced at his unlucky child, then looked at the glass lamp in the little boy's hand. The old Taoist smiled playfully and strangely. "My son, there is nothing for you to do here." After the old Taoist finished speaking, he shook his head and denied it: "It is true that you have nothing to do for the time being. This fight will not be over for two months. Don't worry about the affairs of the hungry ghost realm from now on." "Hou Tu and Zi Wei have their own plans. They will call you when they can use you."

This sounds like the heartless guest who pulled that thing out. Jiang Lin rolled his eyes, and before he could say anything, the old man raised his hand and slapped his forehead. With a crisp "pa" sound, Jiang Lin was slapped and flew away. His figure seemed to be lost, and when he reappeared, he was already on Xiao Qingluan's back. "Ouch." Jue glanced at Jiang Lin and pointed at Jiang Lin's forehead. Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and summoned a light mirror, then he saw a star-shaped point condensed from black energy on his forehead, which was slowly sinking into his spiritual platform. "This is……" "With the blessing of your master's origin and the Fengdu Star Evil, um..." Jue thought about it and changed his words to something more understandable: "You can die in vain once, and you won't lose anything, no matter who did it." After that, he waved his hand, pointed to his head and said: "Don't ask me the details, I don't know either. After seeing this thing, I naturally knew these, but that's all I know." Jiang Lin nodded when he heard that, and some thoughts flashed through his mind. Why did the old man suddenly give himself such a blessing? Although I can't say I'm letting myself go, the old man will never give me such a direct way to save my life. Flowers in a greenhouse are not what the old man needs. Or did the old man predict something? Jiang Lin was thinking about it and was about to speak when his eyes blurred. A man wearing a hydration suit and a cloud-shaped crown on his head suddenly appeared not far away, his expression so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out. A crown with twenty-four tassels was suspended above his head, and the spiritual energy was flowing through it, blocking out all sensing and prying eyes. In other words, only Jiang Lin can see him. "True Lord..." Jiang Lin opened his mouth subconsciously, but the next moment, he saw Erlang Zhenjun suddenly appear with a gloomy face, and activated the crown on his head in a way that Jiang Lin could not understand. 'Om! ' After a barely perceptible buzzing sound, Jiang Lin's figure disappeared. Jue was stunned for a moment. She had no idea what had just happened. She subconsciously wanted to investigate, but was stopped by a black energy. Seeing this, Jue felt relieved. Jiang Lin only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he stood firm again, Erlang Zhenjun was the only one left around him. Zhenjun still had a gloomy face, and the murderous aura in his body was visible to the naked eye. What's going on here? As Jiang Lin was thinking about this, he heard the voice of Master Erlang gritting his teeth, which was extremely cruel and cold. "Think of a way to help me kill someone." (End of this chapter)
