When the Tang monks and disciples walked to Lingyundu, Wukong told the master and his disciples that if they wanted to become Buddhas, they must pass through the one-wood bridge, but the eight precepts were tightly hugging the one-wood bridge, even if the monkey brother said bitterly for half a day, he was not willing to move a bit, could it be that the eight precepts had no intention of becoming a Buddha at all?
The Golden Dome Immortal sent the four masters and apprentices to Lingyundu after the completion of the retreat, and then Goku incarnated as the leader of the team, Brother Monkey looked at the distant canoe bridge to popularize the knowledge of the master and the master and disciple, as long as he walked on the canoe bridge to become a Buddha, after saying that the monkey brother walked from the canoe bridge to the other side, the fact is as Goku said, he was sealed by Rulai as a fighting Buddha.
There is only a thin piece of wood on the canoe bridge, under the canoe bridge is the abyss, under the abyss is the unfathomable river, the eight precepts from the top down to look down, frightened legs are soft, the eight precepts are not willing to hide their true reactions, he lies on the canoe bridge, shivering holding the pillar Righteous words said: "Brother, the Buddha can't do it, it really can't go!" ”
It is this sentence of the Eight Precepts that gives the reader an established impression, perhaps, the Eight Precepts have never thought of becoming a Buddha, but is this sentence really the voice of the Second Master's brother?
Perhaps, this is just his impatient words.
If the Eight Precepts really did not want to become a Buddha, he did not have to argue with Rulai in the main hall, why Tang Monk and Wukong could become Buddhas, he could only become a messenger of the pure altar, Rulai was questioned by the Eight Precepts dumbfounded, and had to dryly mention the problem of the amount of food of the second master's brother, and the Eight Precepts were poked in the death pit and retreated in a daze.
If the Eight Precepts really did not want to become a Buddha, he did not have to explain his ambitions in front of the Eight Great Vajras, and in order to prevent the Eight Precepts from accompanying the Tang monks to the Eastern Soil Tang Dynasty, the Eighth Great Vajrayogini bluntly said that the Second Master brother would covet wealth and wealth, and stayed in the Eastern Soil Tang Dynasty and did not want to come back, and the Eight Precepts immediately retorted after listening to it: Master becomes a Buddha, I also hope to become a Buddha, is there any reason to covet!
Therefore, the Eight Precepts also have the idea of becoming a Buddha, and since the Second Master wants to become a Buddha, why doesn't he want to listen to Goku's words and go over the canoe bridge?
Because the canoe bridge is a dry maple from a close distance, if you think of the past, you can only ride the clouds and drive the fog as the eight precepts say, although the eight precepts used to be a canopy marshal, not afraid of the water under the cliff, but no one can be sure that the water below is just ordinary water, in case the sea of suffering or weak water below, where the eight precepts can rest assured.
The Eight Precepts tacitly believed that there were other ways to cross the river, he counted to the beginning and did not count to the end, he thought that Plan B was prepared for everyone, but he did not know that from the bottomless boat, the only person who could become a Buddha was Tang Monk.
Sometimes, there is only one opportunity in front of us, grasp the future is immeasurable, the opportunity to sneak away can only be at your own risk, the eight precepts did not grasp the olive branch handed out by Goku, and could only be bitterly relegated to the position of the messenger of the pure altar.
