Chapter 68: Buddhist Thought (2)

Master Xuanzang paused slightly, bowed to Su Dingfang, and said: "Amitabha, poor monks are monks, these are the Buddha's true scriptures for educating the world. ”

Master Xuanzang's meaning is very clear, he is a monk and not a person under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, these are the true scriptures of the Buddha to educate the world, and they are not mortal, of course, they must enjoy the highest treatment.

Su Dingfang paused slightly, turned his head a little helplessly and glanced at Li Shen, and then said: "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, bright yellow items can only be used by the Son of Heaven and the Prince, and the general will also act in accordance with the rules, I hope Master Xuanzang can understand, don't make such a mistake in the future, forget it for the first time." ”

Turning around, he shouted, "Come on, remove the things from this table." ”

The two soldiers hurriedly ran over.

"Presumptuous, the holy relics of the Buddha, how can you wait for mortals to touch them." Several warrior monks hurriedly stopped the two soldiers and scolded loudly.

Master Xuanzang got up from the ground, looked at Li Shen, who was always smiling, bowed, and said, "Amitabha, why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like this?" The poor monk should not have offended His Royal Highness the Prince, the poor monk just wanted to spread the light of the Buddha's benevolence and educate sentient beings. ”

Li Shen pursed his lips, looked at the eyes of all the people and monks at the scene, and said: "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, bright yellow things can only be used by the Son of Heaven and the Prince, and the monks have violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty by taking them out and using them, Buddha?" You actually compared a prince who has died in a small country of Fanbang who doesn't know how many people come to compare the emperor of the Tang Dynasty with Lone? What do you mean? Don't forget, you are all the people of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The people looked at Li Shen with a look at each other, he could even say this kind of thing, Buddha! That's the gods of the Western Elysium, all the Buddhas, this is going to offend the gods of heaven!

All the monks looked at Li Shen with angry faces.

"Why is it wrong to say it?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not wrong, the Buddha Shakyamuni Maitreya Buddha is a prince of a small country in the Western Elysium, but he has appeared in another form to transform the world." Master Xuanzang said lightly.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!!"

Li Shen coughed a few times when he heard this, looked at Master Xuanzang, and said: "I'm sorry, it turns out that another form has appeared, but even if he has appeared in another form, but in front of Lone, he still has to bow down to his ministers, and Lone is the reincarnation of Hongjun Ancestor." Lone is the master of all the saints, he Shakyamuni Maitreya is just a disciple of the sect, and when he sees Lone, he has to shout his ancestor. ”

"Presumptuous." A warrior monk with a meaty face pointed at Li Shen and shouted angrily.

"Bang".

Su Dingfang decisively took out a gun, which was a shot.

The originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

Li Shen looked at Su Dingfang who was clutching his head with embarrassment on his face in disbelief, what is this guy doing?

"Wuyuan."

"Wuyuan."

"Amitabha, good, good." Master Xuanzang closed his eyes and whispered.

Su Dingfang smiled awkwardly at Li Shen, walked over, and said, "The minister didn't mean to. ”

"You did it on purpose." Li Shen replied angrily.

Then stretched out his hand, the night guard beside him hurriedly coughed twice with the holy decree in his hand, and shouted to Master Xuanzang: "Xuanzang takes the decree." ”

Master Xuanzang bowed and knelt on the ground, his face was gloomy, and at this time he had already guessed that the imperial court was going to start a real purge of Buddhism.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Chen Yifa, a monk of the Pure Land Temple, called Xuanzang, ignored the laws of the imperial court and went out of the customs privately...... Forty responsibilities, in order to set an example, admiration. ”

Li Shen finished reading the holy decree, handed it to Xuanzang, who got up after thanking him, and said with a smile: "Do you know what it means?" ”

"The poor monk understands and hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will forgive those who are dedicated to the Buddha."

"Is there a Buddha in this world?" Li Shen said disdainfully.

"If you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you will not." Xuanzang said blandly.

Li Shen nodded, looked at Xuanzang and shook his head, people who are addicted to fantasy worlds are really pathetic, and said in a low voice: "Let me tell you the truth, the Buddhism you believe in is just a means used by the ruler to oppress the people, and it is not as great as you imagined. After speaking, he laughed and turned around and walked over to the seat, looked at Su Dingfang who was standing on the side and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you leave, do you want to eat fast?" ”

"The battle has not yet been fought." Su Dingfang replied.

Li Shen rolled his eyes speechlessly, a general of the new army, could he still stare at this, and said, "Go, leave two people." ”

"Your Highness, why do you suddenly want to do something to these Buddhist monks?" Su Dingfang sat in the carriage and asked with a puzzled face.

"It's not something you want to convey."

Su Dingfang paused for a moment, isn't it good for this Buddhism to persuade people to be good? I really don't understand what Li Shen thinks.

"Lone asks you, what is the main idea of Buddhism?"

"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground, and persuade people to be good."

Li Shen looked at him a little speechlessly, and said: "Buddhism in Lone's understanding, that is, the people of my Central Plains are too powerful, and it spread to my Central Plains in order to control the minds of my people in the Central Plains, and to ...... the people of my Central Plains through its ideological education."

In Li Shen's view, Buddhism is one of the culprits that completely changed China, the strength of China, so that all the surrounding states are worried every day, its thinking penetrates into the hearts of the people, and the belief produced is very terrible, which can completely change the originally powerful Chinese people into a bloodless nation.

What are the consequences once the bloodshed on the nation is lost? Xiang I am dignified that the hundreds of millions of people in China, when the Ming Dynasty fell, were actually controlled by a small minority and became slaves, what is it, it is not that they are missing that bloody courage, the fundamental reason is that the imperial court has attached too much importance to Confucianism and Buddhism for thousands of years, which has worn away the anger of the people, so that they only know how to blindly give up resistance.

Li Shen didn't want to change Confucianism, because it was the root of China, and it was not blindly benevolent, but he would definitely not let Buddhism's outright hypocrisy continue.

If it hadn't taken root in China, it is estimated that it would have been wiped out in the long river of history.
