For religion, some things that seem insignificant to ordinary people are a matter of life and death.

In the case of Tibetan Tantra, it is just that the teachings and scriptures that should be upheld have their own emphasis, and they are divided into several major sects that disagree with each other, and this contradiction seems a bit bizarre, because the gap between them is not irreconcilable, and it is simply too easy to merge with some other religions in the world, but they just can't come together.

Specifically, there are two main streams of Tibetan Buddhism, four major sects, namely Nyingma, also known as the Red Sect; Geju faction, also known as Baijiao; Gelugpa, which is the Yellow Sect; Sakya, also known as the Flower Sect. The Nyingma and Geju factions were the mainstream in the early stage.

Religious divisions often bring huge problems in the world, which are particularly obvious in **** places, specifically in the Tibetan land of the Southern Song Dynasty, which is manifested in the divided land.

The pure plateau is dotted with temples, because the Tibetan king Tsangpu Buddha who started from Songtsen Gampo swept Tibet, and the original local primitive religion Bon suppressed the banner, and finally disappeared nowhere. When Trizu Detsen was the king of Tibet, he even established a legal system for Tibetans to raise one monk in seven households, which greatly promoted the development of Tantric Buddhism in Tibet.

The sectarian split on the basis of deep religion, coupled with the deliberate involvement of political factors, has formed a large and small force in the land of Tibet, with the temple as the core, although there is rarely armed struggle between each other, but the unpleasant open and secret struggle is indispensable, the competition for believers, the struggle for territory, the opening of branch monasteries, and even a dispute between believers may lead to a war of words, and when it is fierce, it is necessary to solve the problem by a small-scale armed fight.

Venerable Baring of Pachang Monastery is one of the Nyingma Dharma kings, and unlike the Sakya Pandita sect that went to Xiliangfu to meet with Kuoduan on behalf of the Tibetan tribes, there is naturally a great disagreement.

Therefore, the Jiarong region, out of fear of Mongolian force, sided with the Sakya faction, but it does not mean that the Bacang Monastery is subject to the Sakya faction, and there is no subordinate relationship between the two.

Of course, Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, appointed the Sakya sect of Dharma King Ba Si Pa as the national teacher in history, and used the Sakya sect as an agent to manage the domain, so as to rule Tubo is a later story, at least for the time being, the early death of Kuduan did not come to this step, and Kublai Khan, who later did this, was still messing around in Xiangyang City.

The death of Master Baren ignited a powder keg.

Later, the warrior monks searched every piece of land in Jiarong, but found no trace of the assassin, and the guy who escaped by jumping over the wall after assassinating Baren disappeared as if out of thin air, and was never found again.

Of course, this matter cannot be settled, and the personal witness of Xiao Shami Gyatso has become the key to solving the case, and the demon pestle left on the corpse that does not belong to Bacang Temple can also prove the identity of the murderer.

A monk.

This is the identity of the murderer, and it will be easy to figure this out.

The backyard of Bacang Temple is not allowed by ordinary people to enter at will, and after investigation, the monks of Bacang Temple have proof that it is impossible to commit crimes, so they are outsiders. In addition, there were not many monks from other institutes who entered the temple that morning, so it was clear when I checked the records.

A wandering monk from Sakya Monastery in the city of Rassi naturally became the primary object of suspicion, and this person has been entering Bachang Monastery a lot lately, and he often talks with Master Baren behind closed doors, and no one knows what they say.

The angry monks of the Bachang Monastery rushed to the city of Rakssi and went to the Sakya Monastery to ask about the guilt, but the people of the Sakya Monastery told them that there was no such person in the monastery.

Bacang Temple was even more angry, could it be that the person's registration was fake?

Sakya Monastery insisted on its conclusion, saying that although he sympathized with the murder of Master Baren, this suspect was really not from this monastery, and hoped that Bachang Monastery would find out.

Angry people, the words are fierce, but the Sakya Monastery is not good at stubble, for the monks of the Bacang Monastery who came to the door to make trouble, at first they were still pleasant, but after a few confrontations, they became impatient, and turned from justification to quarrel, and finally drove the people of the Bacang Monastery out.

This is even more incredible.

There are lords in the Jiarong area, who are the secular agents of the temple, they have soldiers, and there are also warrior monks in the temple, and there are tens of thousands of people pulled out.

Soon after, the believers in the Jiarong area smashed a Sakya temple on the edge of Jiarong, set fire to the temple, and forced the monks to join the Nyingma sect.

In the past, because of the mediation of the Tibetan king Tsangpu, this kind of religious contradiction would eventually end in reconciliation, and everyone sat together, 4466 and made it clear, and finally reconciled in front of the Buddha, that is.

But now that there is no Zao, who has the big face to do this?

The Sakya sect must not have been convinced, so the Sakya sect believers in the city of Luxi also smashed several Red Sect temples, and the matter became bigger and bigger.

The death of Master Baren, who did it At this time, it is no longer so important, everyone is red-eyed, and there is no reason.

In terms of the number of believers, the Sakya sect was dominant in this era, and Pandita was jointly elected by the Tibetan tribes to negotiate with the Mongols as a representative, which can see the influence of the Flower Sect, while the Nyingma sect was the founder of Tantric Buddhism, but the old descendants were at a disadvantage, which seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the Nyingma sect in this religious turmoil.

Before Baren's assassination, various sects were crisscrossed, and the construction of temples was not strictly divided into their respective spheres of influence.

The murder of each other's monks occurred in the city of Luo Xi and Jiarong, and the armies of the lords of the two places began to come forward to arrest each other's murderous monks, and the fighting escalated further from the level of temple worshippers. Two months later, the first large-scale battle between the lords took place in the area of Doganth between the city of Logosy and Jiarong, and the battle ended in victory for the Logosian side.

When these news reached the ears of Sun Hong, the mayor of Hanzhong, he was drinking.

Sitting opposite him was a sturdy man, with a beard full of scum and a fierce temperament.

The eldest grandson Hong poured a full cup for him, and the big man drank it as soon as he picked it up, and smacked his lips after drinking: "Good wine!" It's still our Han people's wine that is delicious, and the barley wine in Tibet is hard to drink, and Lao Tzu is very unaccustomed to living there. ”

Eldest Sun Hong smiled, poured him another glass, and said: "Fourth Brother Lin, I have worked hard for you, it is difficult for you to pretend to be a monk and wear a monk's robe, I have prepared a high-quality wine, just wait for you to come back and drink enough!" ”

Lin Laosi smelled the aroma of wine, and he was already happy, stretched out his chopsticks and unceremoniously picked up a chopstick dish, squinting his eyes and sipping wine, so unpleasant.

The eldest grandson Hong looked at him with a smile and beckoned the servants to serve a few more meat dishes.

Lin Laosi sighed with emotion: "You scholars still have the ability, we have been planning in Fujian for a long time, and the righteous army that came out was suppressed by the official army before half a year, and many brothers were put in, you are good, it doesn't cost a soldier, just I ran away, and Tubo was turned upside down, others say that scholars don't use knives to kill people, I don't believe it, but today I believe it!" ”

He looked at Changsun Hong: "That old monk is kind and kind, when I killed him, he also recited the scriptures to me, so that I almost didn't go down, why do you have to kill him?" ”

Eldest Sun Hong lowered his head and was silent for a long time before he raised it again, picked up the full wine glass in front of him, and shook his head: "Fourth brother, have you ever heard of Huaibi's sin?" ”

"Huh?"

When Lin Lao turned his head to the side and thought about what was called Huaibi's sin, Changsun Hong had already raised the wine glass in his hand, raised it to the sky, and with a flick of his wrist, he spilled the full glass of wine to the ground.
