In the Heavens

After the meeting of the Tiangong Temple, many Daoist masters who were originally salted fish turned into hard-working little bees, running for the promotion of Daoist thoughts.

Against this background, the Dao veins that had previously closed the mountain and closed their doors to avoid the edge of Buddhism, have now opened their doors and opened their hands and feet to accept disciples.

At the same time, Buddhism and Taoism opened the door of convenience, and the martial arts sect, which had been in the mundane world, naturally would not be idle, and immediately joined the battle of robbing people.

All actions are to prepare for the invasion of the alien demon gods for the next calamity. In front of Hunyuan Dao, even if it may be contaminated with karma due to this, everyone can't care so much.

The saints of Sanqing have already made their cards clear, and the next calamity is the invasion of foreign demons. The Dao of Heaven can't at this juncture, initiate a mass calamity to cleanse the karma and cut off its own arm. .

Any secret, as long as more people know it, it is no longer a secret.

What's more, the Sanqing sage did not ask for confidentiality. The invasion of the extraterritorial demon gods has long been rumored in the wild, and now the time has only been determined.

Buddhism and Taoism are vying to expand their strength first, and the major forces in the prehistoric wilderness are not idle, all of them are holding back their energy, preparing to shine in the next calamity of demon invasion, in order to seize the opportunity to prove the Tao.

In the sudden change, the first to be beaten was Buddhism. It is said that Buddhism and Taoism will be prosperous, but everyone jumps out to expand together. What is this?

There are too many forces involved, almost affecting the entire flood, and it is useless for Buddhism to sue. The enmity of blocking the way is endless.

Fortunately, the Tathagata's heart was strong enough. The previous series of lessons told him that the journey to the west would not be smooth, but now it just confirmed the conjecture deep in his heart.

Others are struggling for the Hunyuan Dao, and the Tathagata is also working hard for the Hunyuan Dao. No matter how big the change is, as long as the number of days is on Buddhism, then the Journey to the West can continue.

It doesn't matter if you encounter difficulties, just find a way to overcome them. If you can handle it yourself, you can handle it yourself. If it’s really inconvenient to handle it, then ask someone for help, and it’s a big deal to go out with a share of merit.

I have compromised several times before, and adding a few more times is no big deal. As long as it does not affect the great prosperity of Buddhism and Taoism, the Tathagata can accept it.

...

Time flies, and Jin Chanzi started her tenth life in a flash. Under the deliberate propaganda of Buddhism, the young Xuanzhuang naturally became a young monk.

The only regret is that there are too many people in the limelight right now. The East Tour of the Eight Immortals has just ended, and they have appeared again: Li Taibai of the Poetry and Swordsmanship, Li Chunfeng of the God Calculator, Du Guangting of the Celestial Master and others.

Compared with the competitors, Tang Xuanzhuang seemed too ordinary. Even if the cultivation base of Buddhism is not low, it must be recognized by everyone.

In this age of mythology, immortals and gods frequently appear in the human world, and the immunity of the people has long been improved. It is still difficult to fool people with the emptiness of Buddhist thought.

But if the road to longevity in this life is still there, who would be willing to give up everything in the present and run away to look forward to the blessings of the next life?

Tang Xuanzhuang, who was originally invincible in the classics of reformation, quickly hit a nail at the Land and Water Law Conference. Even if he speaks hype, he can't stand the people's disapproval.

If I had encountered such a bad thing before, Guanyin Bodhisattva would definitely be angry. But now, it's just a little less prestigious, and it doesn't affect Tang Xuan's attire to learn scriptures, so he can just make do with it.

Who let the people who take the sutras of the destiny be mortal, and the other masters who are in the limelight are all accomplished practitioners?

Others are flying around at every turn, and the way of appearing on the stage will blind the eyes of the audience, but at this moment, Tang Xuanzhuang can only play tricks. No matter how hard you give him, you can't compare with your competitors!

Knowing that this was done by Taoism and deliberately disgusting them, Guanyin Bodhisattva will not be fooled.

If there is really a moth at this time, even if you win the lawsuit in Zixiao Palace, it will affect the great cause of teaching, and in the end it will be Buddhism.

After all, the Daomen did not directly hinder the prosperity of Buddhism and Dao, and the ancestor Hongjun did not announce that the Daomen could not preach in this amount of kalpas.

The lower realm is active, and the gods of the heavens and the holy land of the human race also come out to swear a sense of existence every now and then.

In order to avoid extracurricular branches, attracting the intervention of the Holy Land of the Human Race, or the intervention of the gods in the heavenly court, Guanyin Bodhisattva simply appeared directly in the palace.

With the auspicious light above his head, he was born with a look of compassion, and the appearance of a full-fledged Sao Bao immediately attracted everyone's eyes.

"I've seen Emperor Tang!"

When he came back to his senses, Li Shimin's face sank. Even with the dragon energy protecting his body, he was still affected just now. If Guanyin Bodhisattva was not worried about contamination with cause and effect, I am afraid that he would not be able to wake up now.

Coming up is a dismount, which is intolerable for any emperor. It's just that reason tells him that he can't afford to offend the person in front of him.

"I don't know if the Bodhisattva is coming, I have lost my way to welcome it!"

The cold reply undoubtedly explained Li Shimin's mood at the moment. In particular, all the maids and eunuchs in front of him kowtowed and bowed, which made him feel that the imperial power was being provoked.

In this mythical world, the sacrifices of the emperors in the world are also very particular. It is an everlasting tradition to pay homage to the sages of the human race, such as the Empress Nuwa, the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors.

Worshiping the gods of heaven is a kind of transaction. The incense sacrifice is exchanged for the protection of the heavenly court for the secular dynasty, in the hope that the demons will disappear, the weather will be good, and the crops will be prosperous.

The weather was good and the crops were abundant, but it was not completely achieved, but it was true that the demons and ghosts in the Tang Dynasty were extinct. In addition to the merits of the cultivation sects in the human world, the gods in the heavens also contributed greatly.

Whenever there is a powerful and tyrannical demon in the Tang Dynasty, Heavenly Court will immediately send the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to arrest them.

It is because the Li family found a powerful ancestor for themselves in order to increase the legal system - Laozi.

All sacrificial offerings have a provenance, and none of them is redundant. No matter how greedy Buddhism was, Emperor Tang couldn't add them up.

On the one hand, the power of incense is limited, and it is impossible to supply all parties without restrictions; on the other hand, Buddhism is useless in the Tang Dynasty.

Emperors are the most realistic, gods and Buddhas who cannot bring benefits to themselves, why should they worship them?

Don't look at Guanyin Bodhisattva's appearance, but Li Shimin is very clear that the Bodhisattva in front of him does not dare to do anything to him.

Otherwise, not only will there be a backlash from the national fortunes. The Holy Land of Human Race, Heavenly Court, and Taoist Sect would not agree.

As if he had expected this scene, Guanyin Bodhisattva waved his hand, and all the attendants and maids in front of Li Shimin were moved out.

"Your Majesty, you are welcome. The poor monk took the liberty to visit just to negotiate a deal with His Majesty!"

Direct transactions are far from the original ones - intimidation, coercion, and inducement are compelling, but this is the least likely to cause conflicts.

If it is forced to act according to the script, I am afraid that the dragon soul will be arrested by the Tang emperor as soon as it starts to make trouble.

It doesn't matter if you lose a dragon soul, the most fearful thing is to be followed by others and point the finger at Buddhism. Once there is a commotion, if Buddhism wants to spread to the east again, it will have to wait for a change of dynasty.

"Buddha, please enlighten me!"

Li Shimin said with an expressionless face.

It was obvious that he was not interested in the deal proposed by Formon. Since the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor has not been able to live forever, and it has already become the number of days, which cannot be reversed by human beings.

Even the arrogant First Emperor, who founded the Xianqin Empire, could not reverse the number of days.

Of course, although Xianqin failed, the first emperor still created the Yinshi Longting. Although this road to longevity is very tortuous, the later dynasties are still eager to follow suit, and the Tang Dynasty is no exception.

As an emperor, Li Shimin has everything he can, and the rest is something he can't expect, so he naturally lacks interest in the deal proposed by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"Everything in the world is determined by the Dao of Heaven. Under the Dao of Heaven, Buddhism and Dao should flourish. If Your Majesty can adapt to the number of days, there will be boundless merits and virtues.

Although the Tang Dynasty was prosperous, all living beings were still suffering. There is a great vehicle of Buddhism in my Buddhism that can relieve the suffering of all beings. Why don’t your Majesty send someone to ask for it, so as to benefit all sentient beings in the Tang Dynasty! "

As soon as Guanyin's words landed, Li Shimin, who had little interest at all, became more and more impatient.

Empty checks have always been the specialty of emperors. It's just that he used to paint cakes for his courtiers, but now it's people who paint cakes for him.

"Unlimited merit" may also be "meritless". Mahayana Buddhism sounds awesome, but that's actually what it is.

Li Shimin does not believe in solving the sufferings of sentient beings. If it is so powerful, then why are the many Buddhist kingdoms in the west, one by one, living more than one day?

"Bodhisattva, please do what you want, what the sentient beings of the Tang Dynasty pursue is: Heaven is healthy, and the gentleman is self-improvement.

A little suffering, we can solve it by ourselves. We do not dare to hope that the Mahayana Buddhism can understand all living beings. The Bodhisattva should pass the scriptures to those who need help! "

This is not just a matter of lip service. The Zhenguan period was in a period when all kinds of waste were waiting to be rebuilt and the accumulation of social contradictions was the least. The folk life was generally good, and it was only one step away from the prosperous world.

In this hopeful era, what everyone agrees most with is: Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement.

The people are not very concerned about the illusory religious thoughts. Only when social contradictions are piled up and there is no hope in sight, will everyone pin their hopes on the afterlife.

Seeing that the flickering was unsuccessful, Guanyin Bodhisattva was also annoyed. Compared with the lords of many small countries in the West, this one is obviously much more difficult to deal with.

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry to refuse. Since ancient times, the emperor has no longevity. His Majesty's martial arts cultivation is not low, but under the influence of dragon energy, it cannot increase his lifespan.

My view is that His Majesty has only three years left in his life, and I am afraid that he will not be able to make the Tang Dynasty go further. If His Majesty promises to pass on the scriptures, the poor monk can extend His Majesty's life for 20 years! "

For a quasi-sacred power like Guanyin Bodhisattva, it is not difficult to extend the life of others, but if this person is replaced by a human emperor, it will be different.

The emperor gathers the karma of the dynasty into one body, and its lifespan is determined by humanity. If it is forced to extend its lifespan, it will definitely suffer the backlash from the power of humanity.

To prolong Li Shimin's life for 20 years, it also takes a lot of effort for Guanyin. Of course, for Buddhism as a whole, this price is nothing at all.

"The Bodhisattva is joking. It is the number of days that the emperor cannot live forever. I am also a person who knows the number of days. How can I change the number of days for my own selfishness?"

Li Shimin laughed.

It's not that he is not interested in prolonging life, it's mainly that he is skeptical of Guanyin Bodhisattva's words. After all, when he first came up, he was pretending to be coercive and flickering, which made his sense of Guanyin very bad.

What's more, if you cooperate with Buddhism, you will also offend the Taoists who support your own family. There is no visible benefit ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Li Shimin will not easily agree.

After a pause, realizing that he had made a mistake in his judgment, Guanyin asked rhetorically, "Your Majesty, what do you want?"

"what do you want?"

This is a question that Li Shimin has never thought about. The most important thing is that he does not know what Buddhism can provide him, and how much he is willing to pay.

Seeing Guanyin's sincerity now, Li Shimin was also quite moved, and after thinking about it, he said, "This is a big matter, and I can't make a decision for a while, so I need to think about it carefully.

The Bodhisattva might as well come back three days later, and I will definitely give the Bodhisattva an answer at that time. "
