Chapter 818: Journey to the West Sequel - Salvation Merit 44
During this period, Ruyi searched many places and tried many treasures that were said to have purifying powers, but none of them had any significant effect until she suddenly remembered the jade bottle of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Guanyin's jade bottle can not only hold the five lakes and four seas, but also produce spiritual springs that can bring the dead back to life, and it also has the function of purifying all things in the world.
With the idea of trying everything possible, Ruyi ran to the Purple Bamboo Forest and found the Jade Bottle. As a result, as soon as she put the Precious Lotus Lantern into the spiritual spring water poured out of the Jade Bottle, she saw that the black color at the lotus heart of the Precious Lotus Lantern, which had already turned black, began to fade.
"It works!" That's great. The spiritual spring water in the Jade Purifying Bottle is useful. I don't know if this spiritual spring water can purify the evil poison. Ruoshui is still waiting in the underworld.
"Fairy Ruyi, Fairy Ruyi..."
Suddenly, she heard someone calling her outside the bamboo forest. Ruyi went out to take a look and found that the person was Jin Chanzi.
"Golden Chanzi, how did you know I was here?"
The agreed date hasn't arrived yet. Shouldn't Jin Chanzi go to find Erlang Shen? Why did he suddenly appear here and call me Sister Ruyi? Could this be fake?
Ruyi's face was full of doubt. Seeing Ruyi's expression, Jin Chanzi quickly explained: "It's me, I'm real."
"Really?"
"Forget it, it doesn't matter. What are you doing here, or do you have something to talk to me about?" Ruyi was still on guard, but he really couldn't see anything wrong, so he reluctantly relaxed a little.
"Fairy Ruyi, something terrible has happened!"
"Sun Dasheng and the Altar Purifier were captured by Wujitan!" Jin Chanzi began to narrate what happened.
It turned out that after Sun Wukong and his companions were captured, only a strand of monkey hair was left. The monkey hair turned into Sun Wukong's appearance. He wanted to find Ruyi, but he didn't know where Ruyi was, so he could only stay in Huaguo Mountain and wait.
But after waiting for many days, Ruyi still did not come. Just when Monkey Hair was extremely anxious, Jin Chanzi, who had successfully persuaded Erlang Shen Yang Jian, came to Huaguo Mountain with Erlang Shen and Xiaotian Dog.
They originally wanted to come here to discuss the siege of Lingshan with Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and other "fellow travelers", but they unexpectedly met the little monkey Mao. Sun Wukong did not have much magic power left, and the little monkey Mao was about to disappear.
When he saw Jin Chanzi and the others, he didn't care about the "past grudges" anymore, and quickly told them what had happened. When Erlang Shen heard that his little niece Chenxiang was also captured, he immediately wanted to rush to Lingshan to save her. In the end, Jin Chanzi was calm enough, and always remembered the last words that the little monkey Mao emphasized before disappearing, that is, to go find Ruyi, and this calmed Erlang Shen down.
Jin Chanzi, Roaring Sky Dog and Erlang Shen were divided into three groups. Jin Chanzi was responsible for finding a way to sneak into Lingshan to find out the news about Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Chenxiang and others, while Roaring Sky Dog was responsible for using his racial advantage to find Ruyi. As for Erlang Shen Yang Jian, he was responsible for going to Heaven to contact the gods. If the situation in Lingshan was critical and Ruyi could not be found, Erlang Shen would lead the gods in Heaven to attack Lingshan in advance.
Jin Chanzi didn't know that Guanyin betrayed Wujiteng and was killed by Wujiteng, so when he wanted to sneak into Lingshan, the first thing he thought of was to ask Guanyin for help. After all, when he was traveling to the West to obtain the scriptures, it had become a habit in his bones to ask Guanyin for help when encountering problems, and even if he recovered his previous memory, he couldn't change it for a while.
After arriving at the Purple Bamboo Forest, Jin Chanzi saw Ruyi before he even entered. He saw that Ruyi was busy with something with full concentration, so he didn't dare to come in rashly for fear of interrupting Ruyi. He could only wait until Ruyi was almost done before speaking.
"..."
After hearing Jin Chanzi's words, Ruyi didn't know what to say. She could only say that plans cannot keep up with changes.
"Fairy Ruyi, what should we do now?"
Ruyi did not answer, but fell into deep thought. After a while, she looked up at Jin Chanzi and said, "Jin Chanzi, have you found all the people you said you were looking for?"
"I've found them all." Jin Chanzi nodded.
"In that case, why don't we plan ahead." Anyway, the original plan was to wait for Sun Wukong and the others to bring back the last relic and give it to Jin Chanzi to refine before attacking Lingshan. Although there is one less relic now, after arriving at Lingshan, the originally planned combat force, Zhu Bajie, Sun Wukong, Erlang Shen, Jin Chanzi and himself will all be gathered.
In that case, what are you waiting for?
"It is better to do it today than to wait for a day. Why don't you swallow these sixteen relics today? When you finish refining them, we will rush to Lingshan!" After saying that, Ruyi took out sixteen relics from the space and stuffed them into Jin Chanzi's mouth.
"Wait..." Jin Chanzi tried to struggle, but to no avail.
Soon, the sixteen relics were successfully swallowed by Jin Chanzi under Ruyi's forceful stuffing. As soon as the relics entered Jin Chanzi's stomach, golden Buddha light began to appear on Jin Chanzi's body. Realizing that something was wrong, Jin Chanzi immediately sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and began to meditate.
Ruyi looked at the Buddha's light that flickered and changed with Jin Chanzi's breathing, and an expression of "as expected" appeared on her face.
Ruyi had tried to refine the relics in his hand before. Although he found that he could not refine them in the end, during the refining process, Ruyi still felt that the aura of merit of one of the relics was very familiar.
After careful identification, she confirmed that the relic with a very familiar scent was exactly the one that Sun Wukong had found at the bottom of a cave before.
Originally, Ruyi couldn't remember what that familiar breath was until she rescued Jin Chanzi. When she presented Jin Chanzi with the fragment of Heaven's Will, Ruyi recognized that the breath on the relic was Jin Chanzi's breath.
Now seeing that Jin Chanzi can absorb the relic without any hindrance proves that Ruyi was not wrong.
"No wonder the Great Sage told me that the relic had a connection with him. As two soul characters in Journey to the West, this is how it should be."
According to the normal plot of "Journey to the West", after obtaining the scriptures, the two people who gained the most merits were Tang Monk and Sun Wukong. Therefore, in "The Sequel to Journey to the West" there is a saying that the Fighting Buddha passed away and turned into boneless relics.
Now everything has been messed up by Ruyi. Sun Wukong did not participate in the journey to the West, and Tang Sanzang was too confused in his journey to the West. He did not completely transfer all the merits that originally belonged to Jin Chanzi to the merits of Buddhism. Therefore, the merits left by Jin Chanzi before his reincarnation formed relics, which should have been collected by Tathagata in the Meng Realm, but no one knows how they were taken out later.
Tathagata needs the help of the Mengjie Thousand Buddha Pagoda to refine the merits of the relics, but in the original plot of "The Sequel to Journey to the West", the reincarnated spirit boy Qiao Ling'er can refine them directly, so Ruyi guessed that this is just like dispersing the merits and starting over.
So Ruyi thought that since Qiao Ling'er could do it, then Jin Chanzi, who was also a reincarnation, no, Tang Sanzang could naturally do it too. Now after trying it, it turned out to be true.
