Along the way, Maitreya and others were silent. They were all immersed in the losses of the war. Unconsciously, they returned to the Western Paradise.

When zhunti and Jieyin learned that they had come back, they summoned them to the main hall.

After sitting down, Maitreya Buddha first stood up and took all the blame for the war on himself. He only heard him say: "teacher, everyone has done their best in this war. The reason why this situation has become today is due to the improper command of the disciples, which has nothing to do with your martial brothers."

The burning lamp walking with Maitreya was very grateful to Maitreya when he heard this. Although Maitreya wanted to bear all the blame on himself, burning lamp, as the person presiding over the array, could not do so. He knew that zhunti and Jieyin two saints knew the course of things in the dark. If he allowed Maitreya to resist the blame himself, Then in the future, he will lose trust in the eyes of the two saints in the West.

Thinking of this, the burning lamp also stood up and said, "Maitreya and I jointly preside over the Ten Thousand Buddhas array. Maitreya is not only guilty, but I also have a share."

Zhunti was overjoyed when he heard the words of burning the lamp. He thought to himself, "burning the lamp can say these words, but he has no second heart for me in the west, but he can't treat him badly in the future!"

The dingguang joyful Buddha saw that Maitreya and the burning lamp were scrambling to bear the responsibility. He was not a fool. Naturally, he knew what each other thought. He also stood up and said, "this matter has nothing to do with the two Buddhas. It's completely because I lost my mind and wanted to get back the six tail flags, so it became a big mistake. Therefore, the responsibility for this matter lies with me. Please see the two religious leaders."

When zhunti heard this, he couldn't help saying, "it's good if you think so. In fact, it's not your responsibility, but that I lost my calculation and made you suffer. You don't need to blame yourself for this."

Zhunti paused for a moment and then said, "the ancient Buddha who lit the lamp lost his life's spiritual treasure 'Lingshu lamp' in order to calm the light and rejoice in the Buddha in this war, resulting in damage to his cultivation. I give you 'six grade Golden Lotus'. This treasure is' twelve grade Golden Lotus'. It has strong defense and can be used as a body guard."

Zhunti took out a golden lotus and handed it to the burning lamp. The burning lamp quickly came forward to take it and said, "thank you for your generous gift!"

Zhunti smiled: "You deserve it. You lost your life treasure for the sake of the West. As the leader of the sect, I naturally want to make up for you. Although the 'six grade Golden Lotus' may not be as good as your life treasure, there is little difference between the two. The' six grade golden Lotus' is not its ultimate form. In a certain degree, it can grow into nine grades, which requires everyone's opportunity. I hope you can There is enough opportunity to grow it to Jiupin lotus platform. "

Burning the lamp had some regrets in his heart, but when he heard that the "six grade Golden Lotus" could grow to nine grades, he was very happy, and the trace of regret disappeared.

Dingguang rejoiced that the Buddha had obtained such a good Lingbao when he saw the light burning lamp, so he also stared at zhunti saint, hoping that zhunti could make up for his lost six tail flags,

When zhunti saw dingguang's joyful Buddha, he couldn't help sighing and Thinking: "The dingguang Huanxi Buddha also lost the six tail flags for the West. If he doesn't make a supplementary taste, I'm afraid no one will be willing to do his best for the development of the West in the future. However, the dingguang Huanxi Buddha's reason makes the lantern lose its original life treasure, but he can't give him a supplementary taste, so as not to cause the dissatisfaction of the lantern."

Thinking of this, zhunti took out a thin bamboo, handed it to dingguang Huanxi Buddha and said, "this is the spiritual bamboo differentiated from the six quiet bamboos. It can also be regarded as a great spiritual treasure. Since you lost the six tail flags, this treasure will be given to you for self-defense."

Dingguang rejoiced that the Buddha came forward and took the fine bamboo, and then retreated silently. He knew in his heart that this treasure was a little lower than the "six Golden Lotus", but he was very satisfied that the sage could give him a taste.

Zhunti said after tasting the dingguang joyful Buddha and burning the lamp, "you must be tired after this war. Go back to your cave first and have a rest. I'll ask someone to inform you when I have something."

Hearing this, several people who lit the lamp returned to their cave to recover from their injuries.

After the crowd left, zhunti complained bitterly: "elder martial brother, I was originally poor in the west, but Kunpeng took the Lingbao again and again. What can I do in the long run?"

To approach road: "Younger martial brother, there's no way. The Taoist priest has made you and me unable to fight. If we don't exert our best in the west, we are not the enemy of Kunpeng. Besides, in terms of array, you and I are not his enemy. First, there is the" star array in the sky ", now there is the" four elephant array ", and there are the three major arrays of" Heluo array "unique to" Hetu "and" Luoshu ". All of that time It's no small matter, but I can't fight with the West. "

When zhunti heard this, he couldn't help sighing: "it's all the teacher's bias. If we can have a treasure like Sanqing in hand, why would we be afraid of the Kunpeng!"

On hearing this, he immediately said: "Don't talk nonsense, younger martial brother. You and I have no Lingbao, but we just don't have a chance with it. Look at Kunpeng. The teacher didn't give him a Lingbao in those years, but now there are more congenital Lingbao on his disciples than I do in the West. Moreover, you don't find that Kunpeng's disciples have merit and virtue. You can imagine how much effort Kunpeng has spent to cultivate them, You and I also need to pay attention to cultivating disciples to prepare for the next mass robbery. Although we were defeated in this war, we also got some benefits. Maitreya Buddha achieved quasi holy fruit in this war and added more help to the West. "

Zhunti said, "elder martial brother, Maitreya Buddha got the quasi holy Tao fruit, but Kunpeng's disciples also achieved the quasi holy Tao fruit, and took the six tail flag and Lingshu lamp from us."

Then he said: "Younger martial brother, Kunpeng has only five disciples, but you and I have three thousand disciples. Now we have three quasi saints in the West. None of the forces in the three circles has our quasi saints, and there are no three quasi saints in the combination of the three religions of Taoism. If we can cultivate one or two quasi saints in the next fight with Kunpeng, we can stand in favor of the next mass robbery Status. "

Zhunti said disapprovingly, "elder martial brother, every time we fight Kunpeng, we lose a lot. How many Lingbao can we lose in the west?"

Then he heard this and said with a smile, "younger martial brother, I don't know if you have any feelings after these struggles with Kunpeng?"

Zhunti was puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "elder martial brother, how can I explain this? Why do I have some incomprehension?"

Then he said, "younger martial brother, have you ever compared the differences between Kunpeng and Taishang Laojun in competing for merit and virtue with us?"

When zhunti heard this, he meditated for a moment and said, "but there is no difference. They both have the same mind and thought, and they often seek merit and virtue from the journey to the West!"

Then he sighed: "younger martial brother is still obsessed with the situation. He cares too much about this merit, so he is addicted to hatred, but he doesn't see the cunning of Kunpeng!"

When zhunti heard the quotation, he said, "please show me the maze, senior brother!"

Then he said, "the way the Supreme Lord competes with us for merit is the same as ours. They all send their disciples or mount the lower boundary as demons to block Tang Sanzang's westward journey, and then rescue Tang Sanzang to obtain merit. Do you think Kunpeng has stopped Tang Sanzang's westward journey since Tang Sanzang's westward journey?"

When zhunti heard this, he was surprised and said, "no, Kunpeng hasn't done anything harmful to Tang Sanzang. He ordered his disciples to help Tang Sanzang!"

Then he sighed: "this is the brilliance of Kunpeng. He can not only win merit, but also obey the way of heaven and stand himself in an invincible position. If you and I stop his action, it will be against the way of heaven. This is the main reason why you and I have been defeated by Kunpeng several times."

When zhunti heard this, he thought carefully. As he said, although the Western Daxing is the general trend of the way of heaven, it does not mean that they can act at will. Contrary to the way of heaven, they are naturally not Kunpeng's enemies.

With this understanding, zhunti said, "senior brother is smart. He saw through Kunpeng's plot in such a short time. I wonder if senior brother has any countermeasures?"

Then he sighed: "those who follow the sky should work against the sky. Although I can see through Kunpeng's trick, I can't resolve it. If you and I still deploy according to the previous deployment, I'm afraid it's difficult to do something."

Zhunti asked, "what should we do according to elder martial brother?"

Then he sighed: "now you and I can only let our disciples protect Tang Sanzang in secret. As long as Tang Sanzang has an accident, we can help immediately. This can stop Kunpeng's conspiracy, but in this way, we get a lot less merit."

When zhunti heard this, he said, "it doesn't matter if you have less merit. It's better than nothing."
