Chapter 341
"Abbot, do you know that Taoist Master Mingchen has already attained Buddhahood—Xuotuohuan?"
Facing the opposition from the senior officials of Shuanglong Temple, Master Shenquan spoke suddenly after a moment of silence.
Shenzong was stunned.
The upper echelons of Shuanglong Temple were also in an uproar!
Buddha fruit?
This is something that many virtuous and eminent monks can't get for a lifetime after eating fast and reciting Buddha's name. How can Taoist priest Mingchen get the fruit of Buddhism?
"It is said in the "Chang'an Sutra": The Buddha is the master of the sea, the Dharma bridge crosses the river, and the Mahayana Taoism, everything crosses the heaven and earth."
"In the matter of Huitong Temple, some people saw Mingchen killing, some people saw Mingchen protecting living beings, and some people were confused about the thought of killing and protecting living beings. What the poor monk saw was only saving suffering and saving sentient beings."
"32 should be all over the dusty place, transforming into hell for hundreds of thousands of kalpas."
"Buddha fruit is among all living beings. That's all the poor monk said. Please go back!"
Faint Sanskrit sounds, rippling in the barren courtyard, startled waves in people's hearts.
All the monks were stunned, each realizing something.
Master Shenzong was even more pale, both ashamed and terrified.
Everyone understands the truth, but how many people can do it?
As the abbot of Shuanglong Temple, the Buddhist scriptures have long been engraved in his heart, but how much does he agree with?
Killing and setting fire to the golden belt, repairing bridges and paving roads without corpses.
The way of heaven is ruthless, and the way of the world has never been a positive feedback, so the words of persuasion naturally seem very ridiculous.
However, when Shen Quan told him that Taoist Ming Chen had already attained Buddhahood, it was no less than a storm destroying his view of right and wrong.
"Dare to ask senior brother, can you prove Buddhahood?"
After a long time, Master Shenzong asked in a low voice.
"This is Si Tuohan. If the abbot wants it, he can go into the well to get it!"
Master Shen Quan, who was cross-legged in the well, raised his hand to call out a relic-like fruit, illuminating the deep well.
Shenzong stretched out his head to look, the blood on his face lost all color, and his self-proclaimed disillusionment collapsed.
……
……
"The impoverished people call out for righteousness, and none of the monsters dare to answer. Why are you being that early bird?"
"I was born in the wilderness and learned in a private school of human race. What I see is the exchange of incense and incense. I don't know what justice is. But I know that what the fairy elders do is the way, and the disciple is dull. I also know that flying with the phoenix must be a handsome bird. Walking with tigers and wolves must be beasts."
"You have never changed your glib tongue! Now I hang my wings and have a ghost, and I will not be ashamed of a snake and a dragon in the future. Is that what you said?"
"Yes, Immortal Elder."
"It's a pity, bound by blood, so far I haven't turned into a dragon or a phoenix."
"The disciple can have today's good luck, it is already a gift from the fairy elder, and I dare not expect the transformation of tigers and leopards."
"Speaking can be modest, but ambition can't. It's a pity that you are a caterpillar, and the blood of a real dragon raised by a poor man has little meaning to you. Let's use this book of heavenly demon secrets for better understanding. In the future, you may not be able to incarnate as a unicorn."
"The disciple kowtows to thank the immortal elder for bestowing the Dharma!"
"Going to Leizhou, you will be surrounded by enemies, and you must deal with them carefully. If you encounter a strong enemy, you can call me with incense. Well, these elixirs and magic tools are given to you to save your life, so don't be careless."
"The great kindness of the immortal, the disciple will always remember it."
"..."
Looking at the lonely small town with earthen walls in front of him, Huang Buyu's face was full of excitement, and his mind was full of questions and cares from the Immortal Elder before he left.
I was so excited beyond words.
I can't wait to repay it with death.
After all, that is the top skill that hangs high in the Wanjing Building of the Tianyao Academy - the secret technique of the Tianyao!
It is impossible to say that the name of the academy is derived from this method.
Ordinary evil spirits, who have worked hard for a hundred years, may only have a chance to obtain it.
Now that he has been rewarded before he has achieved an inch of merit, and there are some magic tools and pills, how can he not be excited?
"We have so many rewards without making any achievements, so we can't mess things up!"
After a while, Huang Buyu suppressed the excitement in his heart and thought about the mission of the fairy head.
The task of the fairy head is to monitor and stop.
Surveillance is naturally the easiest.
However, the Immortal Chief favored him so much, so he was naturally not reconciled to a small task of surveillance.
However, if it is stopped, it will be more difficult.
Even if the soldiers kill the good and take the merit, the evil spirits are more likely.
Therefore, the Immortal Chief expressly stipulates that if it is stopped, the murderer's remnant soul must be left for soul searching and understanding of the right and wrong.
This also means that stopping will kill people.
So under what circumstances can you kill someone?
Without him, burn, kill and loot!
Especially killing good people and taking meritorious deeds.
Generally speaking, this kind of serious crime mostly occurs in rural villages where there is no place for justice.
However, the human race is prosperous and there are many villages. If you stick to one village, you may be able to meet them if you are lucky.
That being the case...
Huang Buyu's thoughts changed, and he subconsciously thought of his best ability - the horse celestial being!
He understands the needs of those ignorant changeling goblins;
Also know how to deal with the godmother and grandma;
He also knows how to quickly catch disciples and make them willing to sacrifice their lives.
That being the case, why not build a hall and build a huge surveillance system in Leizhou?
At that time, not only the Leizhou villages will be under his nose, but also the evil spirits in the wilderness!
You know, in order to prevent the wild monsters from getting out of control and cholera, the immortal head set up a monitoring and reporting system.
The rich rewards are enough to make demons salivate.
"Based on my century-old practice, it's easy to set up a hall, so let's do it!"
After thinking about it, Huang Buyu immediately fled into the city, looking for other horses to go to the entrance of Xiantang.
——The fastest way to build a hall is to swallow a hall directly.
……
……
"Who? Stop!"
"Master, spare your life, Lord, spare your life!"
"Since you know the military master, why did you see us running?"
"Master Jun, please spare me, little one... Seeing Master Jun... I'm scared..."
"What are you talking about nonsense with him? His body is strong and his hands are rough. At first glance, he looks like a Lianjiazi. It must be the secret work of the enemy. Kill him!"
"Master! Ah——"
With a knife in hand, the patrolling soldiers beheaded a farmer by the side of the road.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a gust of evil wind struck, and a monster with the head of a tiger and a human body ran out of the forest.
"Hey, arrogant pawn, if you dare to act fiercely, die!"
"Monster, monster!"
Seeing this, the soldiers turned pale with fright.
"Snapped--"
A talisman flew over: "Bold evildoer, do you know that I am a heavenly soldier under the seat of Huang Laogong?"
"Crack!"
The tiger-headed human monster let the talisman add to his body, bit the head of the murderer in one bite, and sneered while chewing: "What Huanglao Palace? Do you know that I am a boy under the seat of Mingchen Immortal?"
"What, Daoist Master Mingchen?"
……
……
"Old Zhao, there are military disasters everywhere, why don't we move?"
"Moving? Where are you going?"
"Let's just follow the big army, it's better than staying in the village and getting killed?"
"If you want to go, you go, I won't go, with Mingchen Immortal here, those soldiers and bandits dare not come in."
"Rural rumors, do you also believe it?"
……
……
"Li Banxian, I heard that Mingchen Immortal can keep safe, is it true or not?"
"Sincerity will naturally keep you safe."
"Then, how can you be sincere?"
"Naturally, offering incense!"
……
……
The Dingyuan army's offensive was in full swing, and their tactics of avoiding troops were all over the place. In less than half a month, Leizhou had already been brought under the rule.
The state soldiers of the imperial court were neglected in training, and it can be said that they were retreating steadily.
Deliberately dispatching border troops to suppress, but the grassland is about to move, and the situation is getting more and more corrupt!
With the invincibility of the Dingyuan Army, the Mingchen Taoist also caused a sensation in the world and spread to all armies.
There are various legends about Taoist Mingchen.
Some say he is the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva;
It is also said that he descended from the stars;
In short, it is probably the gods in the sky who don't look down on the sufferings of the world. They specially appoint boys under their seats to monitor the world.
More than one village has seen it with their own eyes.
If you visit various villages, if you search for ten people, there will be three or five people who will witness it with their own eyes.
According to legend, the boy under the Taoist priest's seat in Mingchen was born dry and evil, with many animal heads and a human body, with a big mouth full of blood.
The soldiers and bandits were so frightened that when they saw the village, they all made a detour, for fear of being misunderstood.
The folks clapped their hands and cheered for this. I don’t know how many people enshrined their plastic statues and won the canonization of all people. The title is:
——Mingchen Immortal!
At the same time, outside Leizhou, a group of monks appeared on the front lines of the two armies.
Claiming to be a monk of Shuanglong Temple, he came here after many calamities.
Compared with Mingchen Xianjun who used killing to stop evil, this monk is much more gentle, unless he commits a heinous crime, he will not kill easily, and mostly exhorts.
With great compassion, many people also attracted worship.
……
……
"Palace Master, this old Taoist Ming Chen is really rampant, if he continues to disrupt the situation like this, I'm afraid His Majesty will be in danger!"
"That's right! Palace Master, this old Daoist of Mingchen seems to be impartial, but in fact he is partial to bandits. If this continues, our army's advantage will probably be wiped out when the Daolu Division cracks down on the technique of opening up troops!"
"No, the thieves pretended to be ordinary people and acted. They didn't know how much information they collected from me, but they couldn't kill them. They are really useless!"
In a wealthy businessman's mansion in Xiaoxian County, there are high-level Dingyuan Army gatherings, and Huang Guanfozi are the main ones.
At this time, all the cultivators were excited and cursed endlessly, each and every one of them resented the old Taoist Ming Chen so much that they wished they could peel the skin and eat the meat, and burn their bones to ashes.
In their view, the Dingyuan Army should have swept the world like the water of hundreds of rivers.
As a result, because of Ming Chen's tricks, the Dingyuan army's morale was unstable and its combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
In fact, the Dingyuan Army is indeed unstable and its morale is not high.
Fighting is about fighting for your life. Who will fight with you if there is no benefit?
Just relying on the mere military salary?
joke!
That's not enough for the superiors to take privately.
For the soldiers at the bottom, a large part of the military spirit is supported by burning, killing and looting.
In order to capture Xiongguan, the general would often promise the soldiers to plunder the whole city after breaking through the city as a reward.
It's all right now, with Ming Chen veteran staring at him, who would dare to plunder the city?
For a while, the morale of the army plummeted.
"As you said, the poor Taoist also knows it, but the old Taoist Mingchen majored in the Tao of Incense and fire, and he is the best at escaping. I was trapped in the palace's mountain protection formation, so I couldn't arrest him for a long time."
"However, you don't need to worry too much, the poor have their own plans!"
Wearing a purple robe, the current lord of the Huanglao Palace, Taoist Yang Yan, raised his hands to appease the forces under his command.
All the cultivators looked helpless when they heard the words, and could only hold back their complaints.
They have heard Taoist Yang Yan say this countless times, and they have made their own plans over and over again, but they have not seen any results until now, which makes people feel helpless.
After the meeting was over, all the cultivators retreated, and Taoist Yang Yan turned around and walked into the back hall, bowed suddenly and said, "I implore seniors to take action and suppress the evil Mingchen!"
In the spacious lobby, a young man wearing a strange costume was leisurely tasting tea and reading scriptures.
Hearing this, he put down the scriptures and asked, "Is there a commotion under the door again?"
Taoist Yang Yan looked helpless: "The five silks of avoiding soldiers consumed nearly half of it, but they took down Leizhou. It is inevitable that all the cultivators are anxious."
The five silks of avoiding soldiers is exactly the technique of avoiding soldiers promoted by Huang Laogong.
It is between a magic weapon and a talisman, woven with multicolored silk threads, and it can resist several attacks with ordinary swords when worn.
This method does not come from the Huang-Lao Palace, but the ancient survivor in front of me.
In fact, it was with the help of this ancient Qi refiner that Huang Laogong dared to revolt.
However, precisely because he was the mastermind of the incident, Taoist Yangyan hated Taoist Mingchen more than anyone else.
When he learned about the Huanglao Palace, he was anxious and helpless.
There is no other reason, his cultivation is not as good as retiring to the old palace master, and the old palace master can't stay in the morning with the protection of the mountain, so what can he do?
Instead, he sent people to Wanli Jinghuang to try to persuade the old Taoist Ming Chen to surrender with various benefits, even if he just stood by and watched.
It's a pity that the lobbyist was kicked out of the academy without even seeing the old Taoist Ming Chen, and he was so angry that he flew into a rage.
"It's not difficult to kill him, but it's a pity that a jumping clown consumes spiritual energy."
The young man looked nonchalant.
Being able to continue from ancient times to the present, his cultivation base is actually not high, only in the realm of foundation building, and he has won the mercy of his master through his extraordinary talent, exerting great magic power, and sleeping in the cave.
Waking up now is actually not a good thing.
It should be noted that the world has just recovered, and the spiritual energy is extremely thin, let alone cultivation, it is difficult to even make up for the consumption.
The reason why he also came out to promote the general trend of the world.
It is not only to seize the opportunity to find talents for the teacher's school, but also to take advantage of the general trend of the dynasty to find natural talents and earthly treasures, not to seek a higher level, but to stabilize the realm.
Wait for the world to fully recover.
This is Shimen's conspiracy, and he has no choice but to do it.
This is also the root cause of his stingy mana.
Otherwise, where mortal soldiers are needed, he can just enter the capital directly to fight life and death.
Of course, there was another reason why he didn't do anything.
That is, the one who can think of seizing the first opportunity is definitely not his family. There must be awakened people in this world, watching them.
I don't know if I am too lazy to fight for hegemony?
Or wait for him to become famous and show up to pick peaches?
Therefore, in his opinion, it is better not to do it, or not to do it.
It's best to do it all at once!
"Senior, if you don't do anything now, I'm afraid that the land of the two states will be the limit of Dingyuan's army! As far as this disciple knows, there has been a five-thread talisman that can restrain and avoid soldiers on the front line."
Taoist Yangyan cupped his hands.
This is half true.
In order to promote the army, most of the materials used are relatively cheap, and they can only avoid ordinary blades!
If the spell is in the body, there is still nothing to do.
It's just that the talismans are precious, and the Daolu Division can't install them on a large scale, and can only supply a few main forwards.
"Forget it, the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest. However, since I have taken action, it would be too wasteful to kill him alone. Before Ding Yuan's army, can there be a grand pass?"
The young man sighed, closed the scriptures, and asked casually.
"Shouchangdu can be a powerful pass for the town. If it can be captured, it can be defended when retreating, attacked when advancing, and can be expected to dominate. However, the Dingyuan army has not yet reached the edge of the city."
"It's okay, send a light cavalry with three days of rations, go through it, and then send monks to open the city gate and slaughter the city to attract Ming Chen's old way."
"The disciple respectfully abides by the decree of the elder!"
[Two in one, thank you for the reward of "Walk alone"! 】
