Yuan Tiangang poured Bai Fan a cup of tea with his own hands, and then asked, "If I say yes, what do you want?" Is it the same as destroying the Buddha Gate, destroying the Dao Gate? ”

Bai Fan stood up in surprise, not understanding why the senior brother who had always been close suddenly said this.

"How is it possible, the younger brother is also a member of the Daomen, how can he destroy the Daomen?

Even I didn't want to destroy that Buddha Gate, after all, even if I hated these bald heads, I couldn't kill them. ”

"Hehe, yes, so you accepted that little monk as an apprentice, since you made a move, why did you leave them incense? Hoover troubled times, don't you know, there is a rare opportunity, why do you want to leave trouble? ”

Bai Fan was speechless in his heart, Senior Brother Yuan wanted to make himself ruthless and destroy the Buddha in one fell swoop, so that there would be no more disputes between the Buddha and the Dao.

"Senior brother, the original intention of Buddhism is infallible, it is just a theory of cultivation, but it is just that people's hearts are evil, and many evil things are done in the name of Buddhism, it is not that the junior brother wants to leave a legacy of trouble, but that the Buddha has taken root in the Central Plains, and blind killing cannot be exterminated, but can only be guided and used on the right path."

"Do you want to make Buddhism an obedient Buddhism?" Yuan Tiangang frowned, looked at Bai Fan and said seriously: "Senior brother, it's not that you can't see through, Buddhism has always fooled the people, only cultivating retribution in the next life, and not distinguishing between good and evil in this life."

The reason why the dynasties have banned it endlessly is because Buddhism has been manipulated by people.

As long as the monarch of the Buddha worships the Buddha, it is not that he himself believes in the Buddha, but that they want to use the hands of the Buddha to exercise the policy of fooling the people, only the people are ignorant and ignorant, can they be a self-conscious people with peace of mind, and the country will not be in chaos.

If you are like that, what is the difference between you and them? Then what is the point of you not destroying the Buddha? ”

Seeing that the senior brother was fierce now, it turned out that it was for this, Bai Fan smiled instead.

"In that case, why isn't this the case? The rise of our Daomen is thousands of years earlier than Buddhism, and it has not developed as fast as Buddhism in the past 200 years, but let their latecomers take over and keep pace with us? ”

"Hey! It is a shame to say that since the time of Lao Tzu's first teacher, Taoists have the idea of entering the court, but there are very few monarchs who appoint my Taoist thoughts.

Whenever the country is in chaos and waiting to be revived, the monarch thinks of using Taoist inaction to govern and recuperate, for example, the Western Han Dynasty started from Gaozu Liu Bang to the time of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Lao Zhuang ruled the country without action.

After accumulating for decades, the country prospered and rose, and by the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism rose, abandoned the doctrine of Huang Lao, and the whole country conquered abroad, and the status of Taoism declined from then on, and it was not as good as Confucianism.

But this is also understandable, our Taoists pay attention to small countries and widows, and live behind closed doors, but the country is prosperous, and the monarch wants to forge ahead, who will let the people do nothing? So it's understandable that we can't enter the court.

Later, Taoism also tried in every possible way, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao was one, gathering believers to overthrow the decadent dynasty, not only did not succeed, but also brought a bad influence to the Daomen, and later Zhang Lu ruled the country with religion in the land of Hanzhong, and did not become any climate.

So until today, it has been difficult for my Daomen to flourish, and I can only produce one or two strange people in each dynasty and generation to win the emperor's trust, or alchemy or stargazing, and I want to do something big, but I don't have the slightest chance.

The Warring States lost to the Legalists, the Qin and Han dynasties lost to Confucianism, and there was a Buddhist family in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, hey! My Daomen can be described as struggling, one step at a time, junior brother, as a disciple of Daomen, shouldn't you think about one or two for Daomen? ”

Bai Fan heard Senior Brother Yuan mention the past of Taoism for the first time, as a disciple of Taoism, he was indeed a little unhappy when he heard these histories, after all, Senior Brother was right, as a disciple of Taoism, Taoism declined, and it was definitely not what he wanted to see.

"Senior brother, because of the concept, the Daomen is destined not to be accepted by the court, and it will not be able to reach the state of great prosperity where everyone believes in the Tao, even if we are persistent, it is useless, it is better to find another way.

The younger brother destroys the Buddha and accepts disciples, not to make Buddhism obedient, but to want him to be like us, to be a religion with ideas outside the world that does not enter the red dust, and the Buddhism that is not used by others is the orthodox Buddhism.

Regardless of Buddhism, it is the method of cultivating the mind, and it is the spiritual need of the people in the future.

To govern the country, we still need the self-cultivation method of Confucianism, and Buddhism can only be separated from things to help the people to achieve ideological liberation, which is the idea of the junior brother.

As for what Daomen is prospering, there are many cultivators in the world, but there are few people who have Taoist hearts, and there are very few people who can really cultivate the Dao and correct themselves. My Taoist disciple pays attention to chance, and I can't ask for it.

Like Buddhism, blindly unscrupulous Buddha will not be suppressed by the monarch? Once they encounter the destruction of the Buddha, they will be wiped out, so it is better to follow the right path and go with the flow. ”

Yuan Tiangang sighed in his heart, and knew that he couldn't persuade this argumentative junior brother, "Forget it, you have your own opinions, and you have no opinion for your brother, I hope you are right, this matter is easier said than done, and a careless will bury hidden dangers, Buddhism has a few hard bones to gnaw, you have to be careful." ”

"Thank you for your concern, little brother remember." Bai Fan was moved in his heart, and when he talked about the Tao, in the final analysis, the senior brother still cared about himself.

"Someone from the Taoist Gate came to talk about the land, but the old Taoist explicitly refused, my Taoist is mostly a hermit in the mountains, and it is easy to lose the Taoist heart if there are too many mundane things.

But in one door, the family business is big, there are always a few scourge scum, although I have already ordered, but there are still Taoist temples in Shandong Province as evil, and it is very common in the local area, and it is beyond the reach of the whip for brothers, after all, a few of us are only the leaders of the public recommendation, but they are not our actual disciples.

You have to be cautious when you shoot, the Daomen are different from the Buddhism, you are the Daomen after all.

Last time Qingcheng incident, many branches of the Daomen had a lot of complaints about you, although it was a good thing to be reborn from the fire, but after all, the killing was too heavy, and it was a little ruthless.

No matter how capable you are, the Daomen is your foundation, if you don't handle it well and have a bad relationship with the Daomen, for you, although you are not afraid, but if it spreads, the notoriety of breaking the foundation is always bad. ”

Bai Fan nodded, and said with a smile: "What did the senior brother say, how could the junior brother not know the good or the bad, the Daomen saved my life many times, the three thousand Daomen protectors killed and injured more than half of the immortal food, and all the martial arts were abolished, based on this matter alone, the Daomen deserved the glory of the people, the junior brother has a sense of proportion, the senior brother can rest assured." ”

Bai Fan walked out of Laojunguan, and walked towards the palace, the battle to destroy the Buddha began, although it was quite smooth, but I didn't expect it to be so widespread, and there would be a lot of troubles in the follow-up, and it was time for the imperial court to give policy support.

Along the way, Bai Fan was thinking about the advice of Senior Brother Yuan, it was good that he wanted to change the original intention of Buddhism, but the biggest difficulty was not the great virtuous monk of the world, but the emperor of the dynasty, no emperor did not know the role of foolishness, so far in history, on the means of fooling the people, there has not been a way to surpass Buddhism, so if you want to achieve the goal, you must ensure that the new Buddhism is not used by the monarch.

After thinking about it for a long time, he unconsciously walked outside the palace gate, and at this time, the inner servant Lao Gao was already waiting for him early.

"Master Hou, you have finally arrived, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time in the Council Palace, and he specially asked the old slave to wait here."
