Chapter 179: Apprenticeship, Wuneng, Bajie Would you like to save me? kill! This was the first thought that came to Master Liaojie's mind, and it was also how he had always viewed existence like the Seven Sinners. This kind of heresy, which was born from the negative emotions of all living beings, should not exist in the world! The negative emotions of all living beings are so huge and terrifying, so dark and deep. Can we still expect a being nurtured by this power to be kind? This is obviously a fantasy! This time, he invited Master Liansheng to come here for a while, just to let Master Liansheng understand the existence of the Seven Sinners in all aspects. As for Our Lady of Suffering and the Lord of Distortion, they are terrifying, but not as difficult to deal with as the Seven Lords of Sin. If there is a second demon rebellion one day, the leading demon will definitely be the Seven Sinners! Therefore, he hoped that Master Liansheng would have the same idea as himself.
kill! Pinggong Chiye did not answer for a moment, but looked seriously at the face of the Seven Sinners embedded in the left cheek of Master Laojie. "Master Liansheng, just like Master Liaojie, do you only have one word for me: kill me?" The Seventh Sinner's voice was soft, with a hint of sarcasm. "Practicing Buddhism is not an easy thing. I want to know if you are sincere in entering Buddhism and listening to the compassionate Dharma?" Pinggong Qianye was not moved by his voice and spoke calmly. "Of course, I sincerely want to enter Buddhism and learn the compassionate Dharma." The Seventh Sinner's voice lowered a little, "I have always been looking towards the light, but the world often looks at me with prejudice. All living beings are my parents, so how could I hurt them?" "I ask you again, are you sincere in entering Buddhism and listening to the compassionate Dharma?" "With a sincere heart, I wish to learn the compassionate Buddhist teachings to resolve my sins. May Master Liansheng save me." "I will ask you one last time, are you sincere in entering Buddhism and listening to the compassionate Dharma?" Pinggong Qianye's voice was the same as before. The Seven Sinners were stunned for a moment. Master Laojie opened his eyes and seemed to be hesitant to speak. "As long as Master Liansheng is willing to save me, I will naturally enter Buddhism and listen to the compassionate Dharma." The Seven Evil Lords answered in the same way as before. Pinggong Qianye nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I am willing to save you and teach you the compassionate Dharma. Now you can become my disciple." "..." The face of the Seventh Sinner embedded in the left cheek of the Master of the End froze for a moment. He really didn't expect to receive such an answer from Master Liansheng. This was just a test from Him, He asked this question deliberately to embarrass Master Liansheng. But at this moment, it is himself who is in a difficult situation.
Master Liansheng’s Buddhist teachings are good, better than liberation. "Why, you don't want to?" Pinggong Qianye's eyes moved slightly, and the tip of the Zen staff in his hand made a sound of clashing bells. "So that's how it is..." Master Lejie thought thoughtfully. "Since Master Liansheng is willing to save me, I am naturally willing to follow him to practice." "Then, let's become my disciple." "Master Liansheng, do you really want to save me?" "Of course, all living beings can learn the compassionate Dharma. Aren't you one of them? So, become my disciple." "Master Liansheng seems to be very obsessed with the status of master and disciple?" "I have brought you into Buddhism and taught you the compassionate Dharma. Am I not qualified to be your master?" "Master Liansheng, aren't you afraid that after you accept me as your disciple, you will be expelled from Buddhism by those senior monks?" "If that is the case, then I will expel them from Buddhism." "Master Liansheng really has great confidence." "Without this confidence, how can I dare to save you? So, please become my disciple." No matter what the Seven Sins Lords said, Hiramiya Chiye always brought the topic back to the issue of becoming a disciple. Since he wanted me to convert him to Buddhism and spread his compassionate Buddhist teachings, it was normal for him to worship me as his teacher. The Seven Sinners said so much and made so many excuses, wasn't it just to avoid the step of worshipping himself as a master? Haha, how could he let the Seven Sinners get what they want so easily? Moreover, if I didn't say that I was willing to save Him, it would seem that my Buddhism was inferior. He then had reason to attack her. Since you want to set a high profile for yourself, then experience the feeling of being in a difficult situation. Let Him use a female voice just now to test and disgust me. "Seventh Sinner Lord, your heart is not sincere!" Master Liaojie gradually understood Pinggong Qianye's thoughts and joined in, "With a great monk like Master Liansheng as your master, perhaps you can really comprehend the compassionate Buddhist teachings and benefit the world." "Master, don't you want to kill me?" "My desire to kill you and Master Liansheng's desire to save you are two different things." Master Lejie smiled and said, "If you can really be saved by Master Liansheng and understand the compassionate Dharma, then I am willing to take back my words to kill you and apologize with this body." "Seventh Sinner Lord, I'm going to bet my life on you. Do you dare to accept this challenge?" The master added fuel to the fire and completely roasted the seven sinners on the fire. For this, he was willing to sacrifice his own life.
He wanted to make the Seven Sinners understand that no matter whether the answer was to save or to kill, His own nature could never be changed. It’s not that the compassionate Dharma of Buddhism cannot accommodate Him, but that He has cut himself off from Buddhism! The Seventh Sinner was silent for a long time, and finally turned to Pinggong Qianye and smiled, "Master Liansheng, I would like to take you as my master. Please lead me into Buddhism and teach me the compassionate Dharma." "..." Master Liaojie's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that the Seven Sinners were so flexible and could even worship Master Liansheng as his teacher. "You should call me Master." Pinggong Qianye looked calm. "Master." "Well, my heart is still a little insincere. Say it again." "Master." "Yes, say it again." "Master." The Seventh Lord of Sins always had a smile on his face and was not angry because Pinggong Qianye asked him to call him Master many times. "My good disciple, since you have already accepted me as your master and followed my good deeds, I will give you a Dharma name so that I can call you morning and night." "I will obey Master in everything." "Then let's call him Wu Neng." Ping Gong Qianye smiled brightly. The Seventh Sinner also smiled, "Master, do you think that I have never read Journey to the West?" "Disciple, you are obsessed." Pinggong Qianye shook his head and said seriously: "You were born from the negative emotions of all living beings. The most difficult thing to overcome is your desire instinct." "The name Wuneng symbolizes the awakening to instinct. I hope that you can restrain your behavior through observing the precepts and practicing, overcome your instinctive impulses, and no longer be driven by desires." "Understanding your inner spiritual power, overcoming your own desires and weaknesses, and achieving inner purity is the path you should take." Faced with Pinggong Qianye's explanation, the Seven Sinners just found it funny. It was obvious that this Master Liansheng gave himself the name Wuneng on purpose. These so-called reasons and beautiful meanings were all made up by him on the spot based on his own Buddhist attainments. But He would not be angry about this. Since He had already accepted Master Liansheng as His Master, He would not be angry over such a small matter. "Master is absolutely right." The face representing the Seven Evil Lords glowed slightly, "Master, are you planning to give me another name, Bajie, which means giving up the five pungent foods and three disgusting foods?" "Bajie, it's a good name indeed. Your real name is Qizui, so you can use Bajie to transform the seven major sins. Yes, it's a really good name."
Pinggong Chiye had a smile on his face and didn't care about the Seven Sin Lords' small counterattack. "Master Liansheng, the matter of accepting a disciple is of great importance, so you must be cautious." Seeing that Pinggong Qianye was really planning to take the Seven Sinners as his disciples, Master Laojie felt a little panicked and felt it necessary to give him a reminder. Master Liansheng accepted the Seven Evil Masters as his disciple. Once the news spreads, it will definitely cause a huge disturbance in the Buddhist community! "The compassionate Buddha Dharma will not reject any living being who is willing to learn. Since he is willing to take me as his teacher, I will naturally try my best to help him enter the Buddhist sect." Seeing that Master Lejie wanted to say something else, Pinggong Qianye said with emotion: "The angry eyes of a diamond are not as good as the lowered eyebrows of a bodhisattva." It might have been a dispute of pride at first, but now, he no longer has this idea. Since you have become his disciple, it depends on whether you can successfully convert him or he will eventually rebel against Buddhism. The Seven Sinful Lords regard all living beings as their parents. This is a great righteousness that they have brought upon themselves. Therefore, on the surface, He always abides by His duties, obeys the non-aggression treaty with the three major forces of Buddhism, Shintoism, and Onmyoji, and voluntarily becomes prisoners with His three clones. Now he is unwilling to admit defeat and would rather worship himself as his master and learn the compassionate Buddhist teachings, so that he can take the position of master and disciple. Once the seven evil masters betray their master, don't blame me for taking the lead and clearing out the sect. "There is one thing I need to tell Master in advance. I am only one of the seven avatars here. They may not necessarily approve of my becoming their disciple." Facing the seven evil masters' cutting words, Master Luanjie sneered and said, "You seven clones are one body and one mind. Since you have become their disciple, they should be the same." "Master, it seems that our brief relationship as master and disciple can only end here." "They have nothing to do with me, nor with you. You are the one who worships me as your master, not them. I understand this very clearly." Pinggong Qianye held a Zen staff and a Dharma bowl in his hand, walked a few steps closer, came in front of Master Jie, and extended the Dharma bowl in his hand forward. "My dear disciple, can you now leave Master Jie's body, enter my Dharma bowl, and listen to the compassionate Dharma?" The bowl in Pinggong Qianye's hand vibrated softly as he spoke these words.
