Section 222 Tao Tai Sin

What people believe, it will be justified if they ignore it. Even if it is full of flaws, it will automatically make up for it to be reasonable or even perfect, and it is absolutely credible.

Tao Daxian's words, Zhao Ji felt too reasonable and reasonable when he heard it.

Without the support of a huge amount of money, how could a small Hebei man and Orion Tianhu quickly grow into a big thief and a strong army, and he could quickly break through the mansion and state to divide the territory and establish a puppet Jin regime, and the more he pursued and suppressed, the more he could not be exterminated because of the large number of bandit leaders who could conquer and fight?

Don't forget that it is no longer the incompetent generals in the mainland who are responsible for the pursuit and suppression, but the fierce generals of the Western Army. The main general Wang Yu is a strong martial artist, loyal to the court, willing to fight to the death and very good at leading troops, even in the Western Army, where there are many military talents, he is also a famous top general, but he has not been able to make contributions to the pursuit so far.

No wonder a small platoon of rough men in Tokyo Wang Qing was assassinated with Huaixi, who was unfamiliar with the place, had no support, and hurriedly killed people and fled to occupy the mountains to escape from the pursuit of the government, but in a blink of an eye, he grew into a giant thief and established a puppet regime, and he could openly argue with the imperial court, and he was also led by Yang Weizhong, the general of the Western Army, but he couldn't help it.

Just say that these two anti-thieves, if there is no strong support behind them, especially if there is no huge amount of money to invest in the early stage of support, how can it be done? Who believes?

Those anti-thieves are bitter and rebellious, aren't they just for the money and pleasure in front of them? If it weren't for this benefit, how would it be to rebel with his head raised?

There must be someone who supported him with a huge amount of money, so that the thief tasted the sweetness in time and strengthened his will and confidence in rebellion. Otherwise, there is no explanation.

"But why would Daxiangguo Temple do this?"

The Great Song Dynasty, especially the royal and Manchu magnates, are not fond of the Great Xiangguo Temple. Not only is it not simple, but it can't be more generous, and it is simply held up to the sky.

These monks are so defensible and enjoyable, what is there not to be satisfied with?

Good wealth and leisurely life, but why should they risk such a heartless and sinful thing?

It's so incomprehensible. I can't figure it out.

Tao Daxian couldn't help but sigh lightly when he heard this: "Your Majesty, what is this incomprehensible? ”

"Your Majesty can't help but think about it, what do you believe? Who is your closest friend? To put it simply, which sect did Your Majesty himself teach the reincarnation of the immortal god as an emperor to come to the mortal world to enjoy the glory and wealth of this life? ”

Zhao Ji suddenly realized.

Oh, yes. I am the reincarnation of the Taoist immortals, and I am not in the same group as the Buddhists, and no matter how kind I treat the Buddhists for the emperor in the mortal world, I will not win the favor of the Buddhists, let alone the love and loyal support of the Buddhists.

This is the root problem. It doesn't matter how to do it. No matter how well I do, Buddhism should reject and oppose me, or will secretly and vigorously oppose it.

Zhao Ji felt that he had found the root, but he still felt that Buddhism opposed the Taoist people to be emperors, but they would not rebel, and even did not hesitate to fight to the death, blatantly scourge the princess and the princess, and break into the palace to assassinate the king, after all, their small life is not only good, but also rich, happy, leisurely, and honorable, not by the Taoist emperor so that life is worse than death, and has to rebel.

Could it really be the catastrophe of mortal conflict caused by the conflict between the two religions in the upper realm?

Zhao Ji asked Tao Daxian with frightened eyes.

The gods with boundless power, the mortal emperors have touched the interests of the immortals, and they have fallen into the whirlpool of the battle between the immortals and gods, how can they have a good life? Can it end well?

He desperately needed answers. Otherwise, it will be difficult to sleep and eat.

At this point, Zhao Ji's essence as a cowardly emperor and not as good as a rural village man has been exposed. Sure enough, the richer you are, the more you are afraid of death.

Tao Daxian sneered with disdain in his heart, but there was no show on his face.

Not only did he put away his usual sunny smile, but he became more and more serious, and his expression became solemn and hesitant under the urging of the emperor's inquiring eyes.

Zhao Ji saw Tao Daxian's expression for the first time, and his heart suddenly lifted, and his heart beat wildly.

That is, he likes to play football, exercises regularly, and his physical fitness is not bad, but there is no major problem, and he is in the prime of life, otherwise he must be so nervous that he will have a heart attack.

He pointed to the heavens, "Heavenly Master, is there anything hidden that can't be said about a reincarnated immortal Taoist friend like me?" ”

Zhao Ji said in a questioning and consultative tone, but his eyes became more and more eager and fierce, and there was a fierce light: Say it quickly. I want to know the answer, and I have a good idea in my heart, so that I don't care if I am taboo or not. If you leak the heavens, you will be punished by heaven, and you must let me understand if you die. I don't care if you're dead or alive, I don't care about you this or that......"

At this moment, his emperor's selfish and one-man nature was fully exposed.

Tao Daxian on the opposite side had a keen eye, saw Zhao Ji's eyes clearly, and sneered in his heart: "Just like you, Poor Dao can kill you with a little finger." Kill you, and the poor road can still get out of the palace and go away. Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji, do you think that you can get me with the few eunuch masters and the Ouchi Imperial Forest Army left around you? “

His mind was this, but he deliberately hesitated for a while before he gritted his teeth and finally ended his inner struggle and made some kind of determination, and showed the warm and pleasant smile of the past, but the smile was a little lighter and a little bitter, pointing to the sky and sighing lightly: "This matter involves the secrets of the upper realm, and it is a heavenly opportunity that cannot be revealed." Anyway, for the sake of the future of Taoist friends, let's talk about it. “

His willingness to sacrifice himself for Wanquan Daoist made Zhao Ji a little moved. That's all, of course. Zhao Ji would never let Tao Daxian continue to talk because of Taoist friend Tao Daxian's leakage of heaven, the trouble of heaven's retribution, or even the danger of his life. As long as he can fulfill himself, he doesn't care who dies or sacrifices when necessary.

"Your Majesty knows that people in my Taoism cultivate immortals, participate in the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao, and pay attention to the achievement of the immortal body in order to escape from the ordinary and ascend to the sun. Therefore, the people in my religion always live in seclusion, pursue quiet and inaction, and if the world is peaceful and there is no disaster to be rescued, they will not show up to mingle. Buddhism, on the other hand, is different from us. They cultivate humanity, pay attention to being a monk, but enter the world to experience all kinds of disasters and waves of red dust, endure tests, refine their hearts and then be born out of the ordinary, cultivate the heart, in fact, cultivate God. “

Zhao Ji nodded slightly.

He understands some of the common sense of this difference.

"Cultivating immortals and cultivating gods are both immortals, ascending to the upper realm of immortality, gaining eternal life and freedom, and having the same end, but this process is very different. Here's the problem. We Taoist people only need to cultivate ourselves and take care of ourselves. The difficulty lies in the extremely high requirements for the cultivator's own root bones, and the emphasis is on the immortal fate. The root bone is not good, it is a turbid fetus and muddy bones, lacking immortal roots, no matter how high the comprehension is, no matter how pious and diligent the cultivation is, it is useless. No fairy fate is even more impossible. “

"Not so with Buddhist practice."

"Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all beings. It is said that if compassion is sincere and persistent, all sentient beings can become Buddhas. Animals with spirits can also become Buddhas. How much more is the primate of all things? “

In other words, cultivating the Buddha does not pay attention to the qualifications of the root bones. There are no restrictions in this regard. You can fix as long as you want. Open the door of convenience, and win the hearts of the people. This is much more clever than my Taoism. My Taoism is an elite cultivation. Buddhist practice is a universal practice that can be enjoyed by all living beings. As for whether you can cultivate into a god or Buddha, it depends on whether your heart is pious enough, whether you work hard enough, whether you have wisdom roots, and whether you have a relationship with Buddhism. “

"I am a heavenly Taoist, and I use the power of heaven to become an immortal, during which I cultivate and eat myself, and I can (play) by myself. Buddhism cultivates humanity, participates in the red dust, entangled in the world, and no matter whether the root bone is good or leprosy, and there is no enlightenment of the heavenly way can be reborn with the power of the bone, thinking that the Tao of cultivation into the god ascension needs another kind of power - the mind of all beings. “

"Mental power comes from believers, from followers. Whoever has great fame and more believers, and who gets more help from the mind, will have more strength and opportunities to become gods. But there are so many people in the world, and with such a source of mental power, how can it be possible to support so many monks to become gods? Therefore, we must fight, not only externally, but also internally. Temples fight with each other. The monks in the same monastery also have to fight with each other. Therefore, His Majesty sees that the same Buddhism, but the world is divided into many schools, each holding a set of purposes, each worshipping its own ancestor, on the surface the world Buddhism is a harmonious and united, in fact, the competition is fierce, and even the Buddha and Bodhisattva are different, and the classics of the southeast and northwest are often very different, and there are many contradictions. And each of them will never compromise on the purpose of faith. “

In order to obtain believers and mindfulness, they cater to the hearts of the secular people, and build the temple as brilliant as possible, like the heavenly palace, but in fact, it is like the palace that the laity awe and dream of, so that the secular people can worship and yearn for more. It is also to get more believers to donate money and food to live, otherwise Buddhism will wait for the world to provide for them, and no one will provide for them without work, and they will starve to death, what gods and Buddhas will they cultivate? “

"Whenever there is a war and a troubled world, people are busy struggling to survive in the danger and hardship, and naturally they don't have the heart to take care of their beliefs, monks, immortals and gods, and their livelihoods are difficult, and the money and food are not enough for their own lives. At this time, it was too dangerous to enter the world to preach, so Buddhism retreated from the world and ignored the suffering of the world. When the world is peaceful, the people of the world are idle again, and Buddhism is born again. And the more peaceful and prosperous the world, the more positive the Buddhism is, even at the expense of demagoguery,"

"If Buddhism wants to fight for its mental power and worship for a living, it must strive for believers with all its might. The contradictions and conflicts with my Taoism are here. “

"My Taoist cultivators don't need the help of telekinesis, there are few people in the sect and they are mostly self-cultivation, there is no need to fight for believers, and there is no need to conflict with Buddhism."

"But I still have to fight with Buddhism."

Speaking of this, Tao Daxian pointed to the sky again, "I have to fight." This involves the secrets of the Heavenly Machines and the Upper Realm. “

"It is not only a matter of face, but also involves one of the most important aspects - luck. The supremes of the upper realm are fighting for the skin, and it is also the luck of the sect. “

"If you lose your luck and lose your providence, no matter how powerful the Immortal Sect is, you have to finish playing. Without luck, the sect will decay. But luck and telekinesis are just as much, and unlike telekinesis that can increase with the number of people, it is constant, and it is determined by heaven that there are so many. You've learned a lot from teaching. I will inevitably teach less. “

"Therefore, the two sects of the upper realm are fighting. In the mortal world, my Daomen also has to compete with the Buddhist Gate. “

"Otherwise, no one believes in my religion, and no elite enters the sect to cultivate immortals and become immortals to supplement the upper realm. However, Buddhism is more elite, there are many believers, and there are many people who have more mental power to support the Tao Buddha, and the continuous ascension has enhanced the strength of the Upper Realm Buddhism, and the original situation in the Upper Realm will be broken. My Taoism fell behind, was suppressed by Buddhism, and gradually lost its dominance over the upper realm, lost its status and power, and lost its face, not to mention, which in turn affected the distribution of luck by the Heavenly Dao, and the luck plummeted, becoming more and more poor. “

When it comes to power, dignity, and the right to rule, Zhao Ji is the emperor, and he is the most sensitive to this, attaches the most importance to this, and is also the easiest to understand Tao Daxian's explanation.

He nodded in agreement.

Tao Daxian smiled, swayed lightly and said: "Your Majesty, you see, you are my Taoist immortal, and when the emperor is also close to the Taoist, it has virtually enhanced the status and influence of Taoism." This touches the fundamental interests of Buddhism from the upper realm to the mortal world, so that the Buddha in the upper realm does not like it, what if you treat Buddhism well? ”

"The most important thing is that Your Majesty is the reincarnation of my Sect Immortals, and when he was in the Upper Realm, he was the core force of my Sect, and he fought against Buddhism, even if he was friendly with Buddhism, he was also a natural enemy of Buddhism. Your Majesty has become the emperor of the world again, in fact, it is my sect that has won luck in the upper realm, and this time it has crushed the Buddha's head. His Majesty also directly affects the situation of the two sects in the Nether Realm, and can completely influence the situation and directly threaten the survival of Buddhism. In this way, whether you want to deal with Buddhism or not, it is a mortal threat to Buddhism. Only by overthrowing you can you have peace of mind. ”

Tao Daxian pointed to the heavens, and his expression became heavy again: "The Upper Realm Buddhism Sect does not allow you to hold the authority of the emperor for a long time on behalf of my sect. The monks of the Nether Realm naturally have a sense and a mission. For example, these so-called high-ranking monks and backbone monks in the Great Xiangguo Temple are just some greedy and wealthy Buddhists, so they are nostalgic for the flowers of Tokyo to gather to settle down or place orders but refuse to leave for a long time, instead of doing good deeds in the world and doing penance. They are all vulgar people, and it is impossible to become a Buddha, but to catch up with the opportunity, get the enlightenment of the upper realm, and deal with Your Majesty, it is best to get rid of Your Majesty to interrupt the Taoist luck increase, sacrifice for Buddhism, and die can soar, rather than going down to the underworld to continue reincarnation. They naturally rebelled, and they were willing to fight even to the death. In this murder, the demonic strength shown by these originally benevolent, peaceful, weak and lethal monks also originated from the upper realm. ”

"It's also a heavenly opportunity. In order to prevent my teachings from calculating and taking precautions, the Upper Realm Buddhism used great mana to confuse the heavenly machine and try to deceive it. Before, Poor Dao had a sense in his heart, and he felt that there was always a great danger threatening His Majesty or my sect, but he repeatedly calculated, and he couldn't solve it even if he exhausted all his strength, and he couldn't calculate anything, but now he knows the inside story. ”

Zhao Ji nodded convincingly.

As the de facto leader of Buddhism, how could the monks let me be the emperor for a long time, so they naturally wanted to try to overthrow me and let me end my ......life as soon as possible.
