Chapter 6 Origins

That's not sadness, that's the passing years······

When Twilight Lixuan first heard this sentence from her, he didn't understand what it meant, but after the years passed, the years were gone, and he understood what it was. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

That's the passing years, that's the floating life······

I took the passing year, but it was messed up······

In 695 AD, the first year of Emperor Tang Zetian's Book of Heaven, the country of the rising sun reigned for nine years.

Kyo———— Fujiwara

Prince Shotoku's legacy is still alive, and the flame of Taika's revolution is burning throughout the country from top to bottom.

But no matter how enlightened the times are, the dark tide is still raging in the calm political situation.

Fifty years ago, the Tang Dynasty Buddhist monk Xuanzang Master traveled west to learn scriptures, and returned to the Tang Dynasty with hundreds of Buddhist classics from the source of Buddhism a few years later, and was warmly welcomed by the Son of Heaven, Mahayana Buddhism was hot in the Central Plains. The prestige of Buddhism in the Central Plains Dynasty instantly overshadowed the Xuanmen Taoism, and it became the first sect in the Central Plains, and quickly spread to the surrounding countries of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Naturally, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty in the country of the rising sun also invited back a large number of monks, and brought back a lot of Buddhist classics.

In this year, there were still seventeen years before the compilation of the ancient records was completed.

This year, there are still fifty-nine years before Jianzhen arrived in the land of the rising sun.

This year marks the seventy-third year since Prince Shotoku became an autopsy immortal.

This year, more than 510 years before the start of the war on the lunar surface.

This year is 1,173 years before the Restoration that changed the lives and history of humans and youkai in the history of the Land of the Rising Sun.

This year, there are still 1,190 years before the opening of the Great Barrier of Borei, and at the same time, there are still 1,1890 years before the beginning of Season 0.

Twilight Lixuan was sitting in a seat in the tavern with a hat at the moment, facing the bustling street market.

There were snowflakes in the sky, and the table in front of him was full of all kinds of dishes, but he ate the food on the table slowly, and the dishes did not disappear quickly, and even some dishes were not moved. Moreover, he did not ask the guys to serve sake, but just ate there quietly and silently.

"At this time, in this world." Twilight Lixuan sighed faintly there, slowly holding the food on the plate with chopsticks, eating slowly, and sighing faintly.

In 574 A.D., Prince Shotoku, one of the saints of the Land of the Rising Sun, who was said to be able to listen to ten people at the same time, was born.

In 587 AD, Emperor Minda died, and Prince Tachibana Toyohi, the father of Prince Shotoku, ascended the throne. At this time, around whether or not to accept Buddhism, a fierce confrontation was formed between the Soga clan of the Buddha worship sect and the Monobe clan of the Pai Buddha sect, and countless antagonisms and conflicts broke out at this time. Among them, the Monobe clan, which reveres the Shinto god Umashi Ashebei as the ancestor of the god Guchi, is the abolition of Buddhism, and the Buddhism sect headed by the Soga clan, who worships humans as their ancestors, is extremely opposed, and the religious war between the two forces is not just for power and profit, as later generations said, for their own interests, but also a dragon and tiger battle for the genealogy of the gods and human dignity.

Of course, this war is not as simple as it seems. Behind this fight, someone is secretly threading the needle. This person is Monobe Budu. Although her surname is Monobu, she worships a certain religion behind her back. This religion is Taoism, which was introduced to this place at the same time as Buddhism.

Taoism allows oneself to gain strength beyond ordinary people, with immortality as the ultimate goal. It is quite an attractive religion for those in power. However, even this charismatic religion has its drawbacks. That is, if the whole country cultivates Taoism, all the people can become immortals, all the worlds will be feathered, and the world will soar. But if this is the case, there will be no politics, and the country will not be a country. With this in mind, she kept Taoist things in hiding.

Subsequently, Huo Qing'e was the guide, and the god son, who also worshiped Taoism, proposed a certain plan to her. The solution is that on the surface, it is necessary to worship Buddhism, a religion that can reassure the people and prosper the country, to govern the country. And on top of that, cast a curse on his own death, so as to become a corpse immortal to resurrect.

As a result, Monobe Fudu became an ally of the Soga clan and carried out underground work. At that time, due to the policy of the Son of God, Buddhism prevailed in the Land of the Rising Sun, and the Soga clan's belief in Buddhism had reached the point of blind obedience. Of course, the Monobe clan, who claimed to be the son of God, was very dissatisfied with this. Eventually, a religious war broke out around Buddhism. In fact, the two sides of this war are the Monobe clan, who worships the ancient gods of the Land of the Rising Sun, and the Miko, who believes in the new gods of Taoism. Buddhism is just a cover-up.

Then Emperor Akira died, Emperor Chongjun ascended the throne, plague was rampant, and a series of accidents made the Soga clan have an excuse to attack the Monobe clan. So, under the propaganda of the Su I clan, these immortals from the west of the sunrise country, Huo Qing'e-style natural disasters, were pressed to the body of the Monobe clan, and the Su I clan took the opportunity to defeat the Monobe clan. Known in history as the Ding Wei Rebellion, one of the largest families in the history of the Land of the Rising Sun, the Wubu clan withdrew from the stage of history.

However, in the fifth year of Emperor Chongjun, the son of Feng Cong'er and the father of Soga Tu, Su Ma Zi, sent assassins to assassinate Emperor Chongjun, and this tragic figure who was located in the Emperor of Yongmei withdrew from the stage of the history of the country of the rising sun. Later, Emperor Tuiko succeeded to the throne, and Toyo Cong'er Miko became the regent, and together with Soga Mako, he held power behind the scenes.

In 622 A.D., Prince Shotoku, the greatest contributor to the implementation of the Taika Revolution and the Asuka Period, which laid the foundation for the first prosperous era of the Land of the Sunrise, was dismembered and buried in the world.

Prince Shotoku, also known as the Son of Toyo Tsutoku, who was the son of Toyoshi'er, promoted Buddhism and worshiped Buddhism at the time of his ascension, which strengthened the national power of the entire Sunrise Country at that time, which also laid the foundation for the Dahua Revolution. Then, in 645 A.D., the flame of the Taika Revolution was burning throughout the country from top to bottom. This was the beginning of the famous Asuka era in the history of the Land of the Rising Sun, which was the era of the sage of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty in Takamagahara.

The sage of Taizong sent the monk Master Xuanzang to the west to learn scriptures, and in the following years, Master Xuanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty with hundreds of Buddhist classics, and was warmly welcomed by the Son of Zhenguan, at the same time, Buddhism flourished, and Mahayana Buddhism was hot in the Central Plains.

Subsequently, the Tang Dynasty of Takamagahara. The sage Emperor Zhenzong was frail and sickly, unable to govern the country, and the heavens changed, and at the same time, Buddhism intervened, and the days of chaos were reversed, so that the Emperor of Heaven was in the sky, and she proclaimed herself Wu Cao, becoming the first female saint in the history of the entire Central Plains Dynasty. During the reign of the Emperor of Heaven, she built temples, worshiped Buddha, practiced Buddhist scriptures, and promoted Buddhism. The prestige of Buddhism in the Central Plains Dynasty instantly overshadowed the Xuanmen Taoism, becoming the first major religion in the Central Plains, and quickly spread to the surrounding countries of the Central Plains Dynasty.

As the country of the rising sun of the surrounding vassal states of the Central Plains Dynasty, Buddhist classics were also transmitted at this time. Even during the lifetime of Prince Shotoku, Buddhism had already spread to the land of the rising sun.

At that time, the immortals who persuaded Shenzi to join Taoism, Huo Qing'e gave advice to Prince Shengde to govern the country with Buddhism. It can be said that Prince Shotoku also contributed a large part to the rise of Buddhism.

However, at the same time, Buddhism was strong, and relatively speaking, the belief in Shinto naturally declined, not to mention the opposition of the Soga clan who worshipped humans as their ancestors when they revered the Shinto god Umashi Ashelbei as their ancestors, and the outcome of the struggle between the Buddhist sect and the abolitionist Buddhism sect also seriously affected the belief of the mortals in the country of the rising sun in the native gods of the country of the rising sun at that time, and the power of the eight million gods in the heyday of the country of the rising sun declined, and even the power of the god Suwa, who was the culmination of the eight million indigenous gods, was also introduced by Buddhism. It leads to the decline of faith, and the decline of power, but it is helpless. After all, the sun god Amaterasu, the head of the three noble sons who was the top of the eight million gods, was helpless, and she was not only afraid of the maddening expansion of Buddhism, but also of the power of the Shakyamuni Nyorai who sat under the Bodhi tree.

However, no one knows that this has long been written in history, and everything is developing with the general trend of history.

The long river of history has always been inseparable from the beginning. The general trend of the times has never changed from the beginning to the present.

Everything has been foreseen, everything has been foreseen.

Twilight Lixuan silently watched this life, but he didn't do anything, he just silently ate the food on the table and watched everything······

Speechless······

Without saying a word······
