Chapter 148: Nyingma Padmasambhava, the Tantric Book of Life and Death

"Gudong, Gudong."

The familiar voice sounded from Jiumozhi's throat again.

But this time, what he swallowed was not the blood, but the saliva that flowed out uncontrollably.

"Three Bodies of Retribution, this, this, General Gao is really willing to pass this unique skill to me."

Jiumozhi's voice was completely hoarse and his face was flushed red.

It was as if one had been thrown into a fire and roasted in an instant.

It is enough to see how excited Jiumozhi was at this moment.

"Hi……"

Gao Changsheng chuckled.

"I got this method from the corpse of an enemy. I am not familiar with Buddhism, nor am I a Buddhist. This method is useless to me."

Listening to Gao Changsheng's words, Jiumozhi, who was standing next to him, just nodded continuously.

Gao Changsheng might not understand it very well, but he knew it very well.

This Three Bodies Retribution Technique is a secret and unique skill of Tantric Buddhism, and its origin is extremely ancient.

According to legend, it is even possible that it came directly from the hands of Buddha Shakyamuni.

You know, in the eyes of Buddhism, this method is a direct counterpart to the method of One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones created by Laozi of Taoism.

However, the method of transforming one qi into three pure ones is still passed down in the Daode Sect of Beimang.

This method of retribution of the three bodies has been lost for many years.

It is said that it was divided into three categories long time ago: reward body, dharmakaya and response body, and no one knows where they are scattered.

And now, this peerless method actually appeared before his eyes. How could Jiumozhi not be excited?

This is most likely taught by the Buddha himself. No matter in the eyes of any Buddhist, it must be stronger than Shaolin's magic skills.

It can be said that anyone who is a Buddhist cannot resist such temptation.

What's more, Jiumozhi is a martial arts fanatic.

"The Art of Rewarding the Body, the Art of Rewarding the Body."

Jiumozhi kept muttering to himself.

"Yes, it is the Reward Body Technique."

Gao Changsheng chuckled.

He waved the letter in his hand in front of Jiumozhi's eyes.

With just this movement, Jiumozhi's eyes turned red instantly.

However, just when Jiumozhi excitedly stretched out his hands, Gao Changsheng retracted his right hand like lightning.

"It's not that I'm reluctant to give up this mere technique. After all, I have my own inheritance. No matter how wonderful the technique is, I can't change my practice."

"It's extreme, it's extreme."

"But, Master, you must know that the Dharma is not easily passed on. Even when Sakyamuni first established a school and accepted disciples and taught them the scriptures, he had to accept people's requests."

"so……"

Gao Changsheng stretched out his finger and tapped the scroll lightly. He did not finish his words, but his meaning was already very clear.

Jiumozhi was not a fool, of course he understood what the other party meant.

But Jiumozhi didn't find it too difficult to accept.

That is the supreme Dharma of Buddhism. Even if you don’t practice it, you can still learn from its principles and Buddhist rhymes to enrich yourself.

The wisdom of the ancients is a precious treasure for everyone.

How could it be spread so easily?

"General Gao is absolutely right. Even the Buddha would accept favors from others. How can I take advantage of others for no reason?"

As he spoke, Jiumozhi began to take something out of his arms.

"I have a flame sword here, which I have studied for many years and has some subtleties."

"In addition, I have a part of the 72 Shaolin Kung Fu skills here, which I obtained by accident."

"I am willing to exchange these for the Three Bodies Retribution Power in the general's hand."

After saying this, looking at Gao Changsheng's still calm face, Jiumozhi gritted his teeth and spoke again: "This little monk also has a Taoist Xiao Wuxiang Gong. If you practice it deeply, you can use all kinds of martial arts. It is really exquisite."

"I am willing to add this Xiao Wuxiang Gong. What do you think, General?"

In order to exchange for the magic in Gao Changsheng's hand, Jiumozhi has already taken out all his assets, which is enough to show how anxious he is at this moment.

"Ugh……"

But just when Jiumozhi was full of expectations, Gao Changsheng suddenly sighed.

And this sigh made Jiumozhi's heart fall to the bottom in an instant.

"The master is indeed very sincere."

Gao Changsheng shook his head: "It's a pity that whether it's Shaolin's unique skills or the flame sword, although they are all unique skills, they are also Buddhist skills."

"I have also said that I am not very interested in Buddhist techniques. If there is only a small formless technique, the value is too far away."

These words were not meant to deceive the other party, but were Gao Changsheng's true feelings.

If the seventy-two unique skills were placed in the martial arts world, they would indeed be unique skills that the three of them would envy.

But except for a few of them, most of them are not very useful for high longevity.

In particular, Gao Changsheng knew one thing: Jiumozhi obtained those unique skills most likely through a backdoor set up by Shaolin, and practicing them would do more harm than good.

However, the Flame Sword and the Little Wuxiang Gong created by Jiumozhi are quite interesting.

But just as he said, the value of these two techniques alone is far inferior to that of the Three Bodies Retribution Technique.

Jiumozhi paused.

In fact, he himself believed that the several skills he had learned were no match for the Reward Body Technique.

But at this point, he had already completely emptied out all his resources and could no longer offer anything else.

"Gao, General Gao..."

Jiumozhi blinked, and a hint of grievance appeared in his eyes.

"I heard that the master came from the Nyingma sect?" Gao Changsheng asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jiumozhi just nodded stupidly, and for a moment he was a little confused about what the other party meant.

However, his origin was no secret, and Jiumozhi did not deny it.

“Speaking of which, although I don’t understand Buddhist principles, I am still very interested in many things in Tantra, especially the Three Channels and Seven Chakras.”

Jiumozhi did not speak, because he knew Gao Changsheng had not finished speaking.

"As a major Tantric sect, the Nyingma sect is well known to me, especially the founder Guru Padmasambhava, who is famous all over the world."

"I heard that Guru Padmasambhava once left behind a book called 'The Book of Life and Death in Esoteric Buddhism'. If you can show me this book, I will offer you the Three Bodies Retribution Merit with both hands."

After hearing this, Jiumozhi finally understood.

It is obvious that the claims about not understanding Buddhist principles and not being interested in Buddhist practices are all false.

Even people from the Taoist sect would not refuse this kind of top-level Buddhist practice. After all, even if they do not switch to practicing, they can still learn by analogy.

How could Gao Changsheng treat it like a worn-out shoe?

It turned out that the other party was eyeing the Esoteric Book of Life and Death.

Of course, Jiumozhi knew this book, which was the life's work of the founder of the Nyingma school, Guru Padmasambhava.

It not only includes the other party's understanding of Buddhism, but also the Great Light Heart Mantra, Thirteen Golden Lotus Hand Seals, Lotus Bodhi Merit and other unique skills, which are all the secrets of the Nyingma school.

It can be said that this scripture represents the entire Nyingma school.

The temple where Jiumozhi is now located is the Dalun Temple in Daxueshan.

But in fact, this was not the temple he was born in.

Dalun Temple is actually the temple that Jiumozhi was affiliated with after he left the temple, and now the temple also regards him as the revered one.

As for the true inheritance behind him, it is actually the Kato Monastery, the ancestral temple of the Nyingma school.

However, the elders in the temple saw that he was not yet determined in his faith, so they unanimously decided to let him leave the temple for training.

It is for this reason that Jiumozhi did not dabble in the many unique skills passed down by the Nyingma school.

Of course, the temple masters did not really expel him from the temple.

When the day comes when he has a great enlightenment and completely comprehends the Buddha's mind, he will naturally be able to return to the sect and study the unique skills.

But Jiumozhi obviously doesn't have that state of mind now.

"The Esoteric Book of Life and Death is a secret of our Nyingma sect. I am a dull monk and have not been taught it."

Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and said.

In fact, the reason why Jiumozhi was so excited after seeing the skills in Gao Changsheng's hands might have been because of this secret book of life and death.

Because as far as he knew, the dispersion of the Three Bodies Retribution Law was probably related to the split of several major sects of Tantric Buddhism.

And in the Gaden Monastery where he is, there is a copy of one of the copies, which is the Response Body Secret among the Three Bodies of Retribution.

When he was leaving the temple, his master had already told him that after he had achieved great enlightenment and gotten rid of his greed, anger, and ignorance, he could return to the temple to practice and inherit the true tradition.

But Jiumozhi now obviously doesn't have that patience.

But he didn't dare to return to the temple easily.

And now the Baoshen Jue in Gao Changsheng's hands undoubtedly gave him hope.

If they can bring back the Sambhogakaya Sutra, then their Nyingma sect will possess two of the three bodies, and will be closer to the goal of combining the three bodies into one.

This is undoubtedly a great achievement for the Nyingma school.

By then, the temple will definitely give him rewards, such as the Tantric Book of Life and Death, and even other unique skills, so that he will have the opportunity to practice them.

This is why Jiumozhi was so excited. The Baoshen Jue in Gao Changsheng's hand was not just a drool-worthy skill for him, but also contained all kinds of unique skills of the entire Nyingma sect.

For Jiumozhi, who was fond of magical skills, this was an irresistible temptation.

It's a pity that all these dreams, plans, and the many magical powers that could be achieved were all shattered at this moment.

He needs the Secret of Rewarding Body before he can get the Esoteric Book of Life and Death.

But for Gao Changsheng, the Book of Life and Death is needed before he can give the secret of rebirth.

This is a dead end.

If it were any other ordinary person, Jiumozhi might have just started snatching it.

After all, this was not the first time he had done something like stealing for the sake of magical skills.

But this approach obviously doesn't work.

After all, he was still seriously injured and had not recovered.

Besides, the person in front of him is Gao Changsheng, and his strength has long been known throughout the countries.

Even if he was in his prime, he might not be able to defeat the opponent, let alone his seriously injured body at this moment.

"Gao, General Gao..."

Jiumozhi spoke stutteringly.

The most difficult thing for people to accept is to suddenly see hope and then fall into despair in an instant.

If a person were to face such a huge gap, he would probably collapse immediately.

Even though Jiumozhi was a great master who had condensed the Dharma image, his heart for martial arts was extremely tenacious.

But what he is facing now is the martial arts that he cares about most.

After a series of sudden changes in mood, the whole person became a little listless.

"Oh... this is difficult."

Gao Changsheng sighed again.

"I really want to make friends with you, Master. But now you can't offer me anything in exchange. If I have to give up this unique skill for nothing, it would really be..."

A look of embarrassment appeared on Gao Changsheng's face.

As he spoke further, his voice became lower and lower.

But when Jiumozhi heard this, his eyes slowly began to brighten.

I originally thought that this matter was completely hopeless.

But from Gao Changsheng's tone, he didn't seem as resolute as one might imagine.

Jiumozhi instantly became excited again.

"I understand what General Gao said."

"It's a pity that I really can't offer anything valuable in exchange now."

"But my strength is barely acceptable."

"If General Gao has any difficulties, or needs any errands, please leave it to me. No matter how hard it is, I will definitely help you solve the problem."

Although Jiumozhi is greedy, angry, and foolish, he is only greedy for the sake of martial arts, and foolish for the sake of martial arts. When it comes to wisdom and understanding, he is actually the best choice.

Although Gao Changsheng did not explain it clearly, he understood what the other party meant almost instantly.

Now, he definitely cannot produce any skills to exchange.

And Gao Changsheng still did not refuse. Needless to say, he must have other ideas.

On the other hand, if Jiumozhi took off these things, he would only have his strength to exchange.

As soon as Jiumozhi finished speaking.

A smile instantly appeared on Gao Changsheng's face.

If Jiumozhi took the initiative to bring it up, then things would undoubtedly become much simpler.

I just said so much to the other party, but it was not perfunctory.

If Jiumozhi could really take out the Book of Life and Death, Gao Changsheng would indeed not mind exchanging it.

He is not the kind of person who cherishes his own things, and how could he not understand the principle that one exchange for one equals two when it comes to secret books.

The Tantric Book of Life and Death is the strongest inheritance of the Nyingma school, and it is a systematic method. In terms of value alone, it is definitely not inferior to the Three Bodies Sutra, and may even surpass it.

Of course, Gao Changsheng would definitely not switch to practicing Tantric Buddhism.

But the strongest inheritance of an ancient sect will have a huge enlightening effect on everyone.

Although Gao Changsheng does not like Buddhism most of the time, he does not look down on Buddhist techniques.

But then again, Gao Changsheng had already known that Jiumozhi could not possibly produce this book of life and death.

If the other party had this kind of skill, he wouldn't be so anxious to run back and forth for the secret manual.

Perhaps with Jiumozhi's character, he still cannot resist the temptation when faced with top-level magical skills.

But if he really learned the Book of Life and Death, there is no doubt that he would not be able to appreciate those ordinary secret books.

Just like the 72 unique Shaolin skills, looking throughout the Shaolin Temple, there are only a few magical skills that can compare to the Esoteric Buddhism's Book of Life and Death.

The reason why he knew this and still deliberately took out the Reward Body Technique must have other purposes.

Just as Jiumozhi thought, he was impressed by the other party's strength. In other words, he valued this person.

Of course, Gao Changsheng knew it very well.

Jiumozhi is both a direct descendant of the Nyingma school and the national teacher of Tubo. He would certainly not easily join the ranks of someone else, especially Gao Changsheng, who is from another country.

Gao Changsheng didn't want to use the other party for his own benefit.

It was just that he had just arrived in the Ming Dynasty, and although he had some transactions with Zhu Houzhao.

But it is impossible to put all hopes in the hands of others. After all, the Jinyiwei are Zhu Houzhao's eyes.

Using other people's things to do things means that everything he does will be under the scrutiny of others.

Of course, Gao Changsheng couldn't put all his eggs in one basket.

However, it is not so easy to find available people in a foreign country like Ming Dynasty in a short period of time.

And the Jiumozhi in front of him is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate.

First of all, the opponent is quite strong, definitely a grandmaster.

In addition, although Jiumozhi is a villain, his behavior is not annoying at all.

The most important thing is that the other party is very honest in most cases.

As long as you can provide him with your favorite secret book, Jiumozhi will definitely be more useful than your real subordinates.

A fighter like this who is powerful and can be used with confidence is definitely a rare animal.

As for the cheats, there is no need to worry about them.

In fact, the number of secret books in Gao Changsheng's hands has already reached an astonishing level.

Originally, there were quite a few secret books within the Gao family.

Later, he destroyed Goguryeo and plundered Fu Cailin and Goguryeo's heritage.

In addition, with his current status, he has long been qualified to browse the royal secret library of the Sui Dynasty.

Also, given his relationship with Xuanyuan Jingcheng, it is not impossible for him to mobilize the secret manuals of martial arts in the Wending Pavilion.

Therefore, as long as Jiumozhi nodded, he would not worry about not being able to provide something to attract the other party.

After all, Jiumozhi has one advantage.

That is, I am not picky and can read any secret book in detail and with interest.

And with Gao Changsheng's current collection, it can be guaranteed that there will always be a bait hanging in front of Jiumozhi's eyes to attract him to move.

"Okay, Master, please speak quickly."

"I do have something I need help with."

"After all, I have just arrived in Ming Dynasty. Master, you know that I have a special status. At this time, I really can't leave. And I didn't bring too many people with me this time."

"So when something happens, it's inevitable that we'll be a little stretched."

"General, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

Jiumozhi spoke excitedly.

He was not afraid of Gao Changsheng making requests at all. Instead, he was afraid that the other party did not need him for anything.

As long as the other party needs him, it means he has hope of getting the coveted secret book.

How could he not be happy?

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Master."

"Master, rest assured. I will never let you suffer any loss in terms of compensation."

"I have conquered Goryeo, and now I have the Sui Dynasty behind me. The secret manuals in the two countries are definitely not inferior to those of any top power, and will definitely satisfy the master."

"Gudong."

Jiumozhi swallowed his saliva instinctively and bowed repeatedly: "General, rest assured, I will never let you down."

"The thing is, I need the master to go there..."

Gao Changsheng turned his head and whispered into Jiumozhi's ear.

When Jiumozhi heard the voice, he opened his eyes wide at first, but soon began to nod his head continuously.

"I already know everything. Leave this matter to me."
