On the second day, the king of Chechi State summoned Wang Hu, Tang Seng and others, and then said

"I have thought about it, but there are three major difficulties to test the holy monks. If the holy monks can meet all of them, it will prove that those monks have reformed, and I will naturally establish them as national temples."

"I dare to ask Your Majesty, but I don't know what the three difficulties are."

Tang Monk immediately asked, and the king of Chechi State smiled and said

"The first thing is to ask for rain. In the past, Zhiyuan Temple's request for rain failed, so there was a penalty, so I just took the crime and became a slave. Therefore, I need to be able to ask for rain first."

After hearing this, Tang Monk was slightly startled, but Sun Wukong then said a few words in his ear, and then Tang Monk nodded and said

"This can be done, but I wonder what your Majesty's second level is?"

"The second thing is that the holy monk needs to open an altar to preach. If half of the people in my country of Chechi agree with what the holy monk says, it will naturally be clear that what the holy monk preaches is the true Dharma."

"This is also possible. May I ask Your Majesty, what is this third level about?"

This time Tang Seng himself agreed. Tang Seng had practiced Buddhism since he was a child. Although he wanted to go to the West to seek scriptures, his Dharma was profound and he would naturally not have anything to say about the matter.

"Thirdly, although I am the king of this country, I have never seen a real immortal god. I wonder if the holy monk can let me see the Arhat Bodhisattva in Buddhism?"

"this……"

After hearing this, Tang Monk was extremely hesitant, and immediately looked at Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong nodded immediately when he saw Tang Monk. Seeing this, Tang Monk had no choice but to agree to this matter.

These three difficulties were naturally set up by the King of Chechi under the influence of Wang Hu. The first one was that Sun Wukong could handle it, so he would not refuse it. The second one was because Tang Monk himself was a Buddhist.

Master, will also not refuse, and the third one, Wang Hu, wants to see how much Buddhism values ​​​​Che Chiguo.

Of course, these three things will take a lot of time, especially the second thing. Even if Tang Seng can get everyone in the country to agree, it will take at least fourteen or five days to talk about it.

"Your Majesty, since Your Majesty has tested us, why not also test a few national teachers?"

At this moment, Sun Wukong, who had suffered a lot, jumped out and said, although he has friendship with Wang Hu, he will naturally not show mercy after becoming hostile.

When the king of Chechi State heard this, he laughed and said

"You, the monk, don't know that the national master can control the wind and rain, and his Taoism is profound. All the people in our country of Chechi know this, so why is there any need to test it?"

"Your Majesty knows, but we don't know. Since the Imperial Master has such abilities, it might as well open our eyes, right?"

"Then what do you think it should be?"

Under Sun Wukong's relentless questioning, the king of Che Chi seemed to have a big reaction when he saw Wang Hu and the others. He even relaxed. When Sun Wukong heard this, he rolled his eyes and replied:

"Since Your Majesty wants us to invite Arhat Bodhisattva, how about letting the Arhat Bodhisattva we invite come to test the national teacher? If we can't invite any Arhat Bodhisattva, it will naturally prove that we are useless.

There is no need for any test, just let your Majesty handle it.”

Hearing what Sun Wukong said, the king nodded in agreement, then turned to Wang Hu and the other three, and asked pleasantly

"The three national masters have also heard it, but the holy monks from the East still want to test you. I wonder if the three national masters can agree?"

When Wang Hu heard what Sun Wukong just said, he already understood that Sun Wukong just subconsciously wanted to take advantage of it rather than suffer a loss. However, Wang Hu and others did not care about this and immediately responded.

Then Sun Wukong asked to pray for rain first. The king of Chechi had been planning to ask Wang Hu and others to pray for rain in the past two days. Naturally, he would not refuse and immediately ordered people to build an altar.

After the altar was built, the liberated monks from Zhiyuan Temple followed Monk Tang to the altar and chanted scriptures together.

This time, the monks, including Tang Seng, were naturally of great use. To pray for rain, Sun Wukong still had to come.

"It seems that Sun Wukong went to invite the Mother of Thunder, Light and Lightning, the Dragon King of the Four Seas."

Wang Hu looked carefully and realized that although Sun Wukong was still standing on the altar, his eyes were motionless. It was obvious that what was left here was a fake body, and the real body had already taken the opportunity to escape.

Don't know where to go

But not long after, I saw that Sun Wukong had a quick wit and recovered. Then he saw that with one move of his golden cudgel, the wind came and the clouds rose, and with another move, thunder and rain fell, waiting for the king

When you ask for rain, if you do it again, you will see the clouds opening and the sun rising, and the clouds thousands of miles away.

"These holy monks are indeed extraordinary. Not all the ordinary monks from the Chechi Kingdom like me can compare with them, and only a few national teachers can compare with them."

When the monarch saw that Tang Seng and others were indeed able to control the wind and rain, he secretly told the queen, and the queen nodded repeatedly.

Thanks to this rain, Tang Seng and his party became somewhat mysterious in the eyes of the people of Chechi Kingdom. So when they heard that Tang Seng would give lectures and preach Dharma the next day, many people decided to go there.

Naturally, Wang Hu would not do anything about this, but it was necessary to secretly order Lu Liyangli to teach a few disciples to go and ask questions. These words had nothing to do with anything else, just to trap Tang Monk here.

On the second day, Tang Monk put on the brocade cassock, held the nine-ring tin staff, and walked slowly to the high platform that had been prepared. People couldn't help but praise his demeanor as an eminent monk.

Not to mention anything else, just seeing all kinds of wish-fulfilling beads, Mani beads, dust-free beads, wind-fixing beads, red agate, purple coral, luminous pearls, relics and other rare and exotic treasures on the brocade cassock is what makes me so happy.

All the kings were amazed by it

"Sure enough, he is worthy of being a member of the Kingdom of Heaven. Such a treasure cannot be found even by a few people with all the efforts of the whole country. It seems that this holy monk is a real person. It is a pity that he is not from my Chechi Kingdom."

The king of Chechi State here is sighing secretly, but the Tang Monk over there has already begun to preach Buddhism.

Tang Monk's lecture was like a vision. Although he was sitting on a high platform, the Dharma he preached spread throughout the Chechi Kingdom, as if he was speaking in people's ears.

What Tang Monk is talking about today is naturally still the Hinayana Buddhism that he practiced in the Tang Dynasty. However, listening to him, it is convincing, and many people are fascinated by it.

"This Tang Monk is indeed worthy of being the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi. Although he is just an ordinary monk now, he has a deep understanding of Buddhism. If he goes one step further, he may be able to understand the mysteries of Buddhism on his own from the preached Buddhism.

"It's law"

Wang Hu, who was listening on the sidelines, couldn't help but sigh to himself. Although what Tang Seng preached now had some inspiration for him, he could still hear that Tang Seng had already become a sect of his own.

It is possible to attain enlightenment immediately

Of course, the so-called enlightenment here is just the cultivation of earthly immortals. Compared with the monk Tang who became a Buddha after studying the scriptures and regained the Buddha's fruit of ten generations of cultivation, it is naturally different.

Since Tang Seng has such ability, the people sent by Wang Hu will not be able to embarrass Tang Seng. However, what makes Wang Hu a little happy is that the Qinglian selected that day is indeed good. Although they are not able to embarrass Tang Seng, they can still do it.

He is the person who embarrasses Tang Seng the most

"That Qinglian has good qualifications and is quite pious. When it comes to the journey to the west, I can take her to my side and train her."

Wang Hu was also thinking secretly in his heart, but his face didn't show it.

In this way, Tang Monk repeatedly preached Buddhism, and the Buddhist believers in the Chechi Kingdom first responded, and then many of them followed suit and believed in Buddhism. It seemed that in a few days, the conditions of the monarch would be fulfilled.

Tang Seng felt a little sad that night

"Wukong, now the second condition can be achieved, but what about the third condition? How can we invite Arhat Bodhisattva?"

Sun Wukong naturally didn't care much about this, and immediately waved his hand and said

"Master, don't worry. As long as I, the old grandson, go to Luojia Mountain and pray to Guanyin Bodhisattva, I would still be willing to come to compare with the Bodhisattva. Even though the Bodhisattva is too busy with his affairs and doesn't want to get up, relying on my grandson's prestige

, it is not difficult to call some Arhat monks, but it is difficult to convince the monarch."

After hearing what Sun Wukong said, Tang Seng naturally felt relieved, but still urged Sun Wukong to find the Guanyin Bodhisattva earlier.

Sun Wukong didn't see it too late. After all, even if Tang Monk was left here, there would be no problem. He would go straight to Luojia Mountain with a fight.

"Wukong, why are you here this time? Could it be that you asked your master to be captured by the monster again?"

When Sun Wukong came to Luojia Mountain and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva, he heard Guanyin Bodhisattva ask

"Revelation Bodhisattva, when I arrived at Chechi Kingdom, I saw that my Buddhist disciples were suffering greatly, so I asked the king to treat my Buddhist disciples kindly, but I didn't want to raise three difficulties with the king. But now I have to ask the king to treat my Buddhist disciples kindly.

Come and ask Bodhisattva for help.”

At that moment, Sun Wukong said those three conditions, and at the same time also said things that could set up a difficulty for Wang Hu and the others. Upon hearing this, Guanyin smiled slightly and said

"You are a cunning monkey. You dare to agree to such a thing? I will go on this journey with you when the time comes."

After hearing the words of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Sun Wukong naturally thanked him profusely, and then was sent away by the Bodhisattva first. After Sun Wukong left, Guanyin Bodhisattva secretly thought to himself.

"That's fine. I'm just thinking about how to save the tiger-power demon king so that he can help me in Buddhism. In this way, I can try it directly."
