Chapter Eighty-Four: Breaking Muscles and Bones (Double Ninth Festival, Look at the Old Man)
How did Lin Sen do it? This question is in the heart of Xi Junmai, who is a witness to the incident, and it is also the biggest question in the hearts of Xie Yingdeng, who has played a major role, and Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin.
Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin, as the most reliable backers that Lin Sen believed in his heart, knew the cause and effect of the matter from Xie Yingdeng soon after the plan was launched, which of course Xie Yingdeng would say with Lin Sen's approval.
Sharing some secrets will not only raise Linsen's status in their hearts, but also further strengthen the relationship between the two sides.
And when they learned the consequences of Lin Sen's single-minded plan and saw the tragic situation of those monks in the pagoda temple with their own eyes, it can be said that they were a little shocked, and they really couldn't help but glance at Lin Sen, and at the same time, they were very useful for his honesty, and they accepted Lin Sen's kindness.
So when the dust really settled on this matter, they and Xie Yingdeng came to the door together, although they were still in the name of drinking, but they also had a bit of a sense of finding out.
Now that the goodwill has been conveyed, Lin Sen doesn't mind going through his entire plan in detail.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, taking advantage of the warm atmosphere in the banquet, Lin Sen pretended to be a little drunk, and began to laugh in front of everyone.
"The reason why no one dares to move this pagoda temple is that its own power is big enough, and on the other hand, it is also because it has a circle of aura on its head.
But when the aperture on its head is removed, it becomes a stinky shit that everyone avoids.
The original protective umbrellas naturally wish not to have even the slightest relationship with this kind of thing, then the so-called latent forces will collapse, and someone will naturally clean it up after that.
So at the end of the day, it's the root of the problem to get it stinky. Lin Sen proudly analyzed his thoughts.
"Of course, its own ass is not clean, which is the reason for its current end. And I heard Li Mu say that there are a lot of famous bandits on the green forest road, and their reputation outside is really not good, and it can be said that they are all evil.
It's a place where dirt is hidden, and when they are stripped of their halo and red fruit is shown in front of people, the end can be imagined. Lin Sen can be regarded as defending himself.
It's not that he is ruthless, but that kind of smoky place, which really shouldn't continue to exist, and they are completely to blame for today's miserable situation.
"I happen to know that this Fu Yi is a well-known anti-Buddhist fighter, and he is proficient in the astronomical calendar, so maybe he will have some connection with a character like Xie Daochang.
Sure enough, I guessed correctly, didn't this trouble Xie Daochang to help bring some words over, and then this Fu Langjun became the last straw that crushed the Pagoda Temple. Lin Sen pretended to shrug his shoulders helplessly, but who couldn't understand that smug look.
"At that time, I asked Xi Jun to buy it, and I also wanted him to help see what the situation was over there, and what would happen to these thieves.
By the way, there is really a strong man who broke through the blockade and ran out, so it is better to help, such a vicious person, can no longer let run out and continue to harm the neighbors, this is also the obligation of an enthusiastic people. ”
Lin Sen talked eloquently in Xi Junmai's reverent gaze, and when the latter was named up, he was still very proud of it, and his posture unconsciously stood a little taller.
"As for why those cherry blossom trees are like that?" Seeing that Cheng Biting Jin and them were a little speechless, Lin Sen deliberately hung their appetites.
"Maybe the gods and Buddhas in the heavens really can't stand it, these miscellaneous people have done all the evil things in their name." Lin Sen said with an unfathomable smile.
He is not stupid, he will not tell others about such a thing as the plant transformation system, even if Cheng Huaiyu becomes his wife in the future, he will not tell her, let alone these people.
Since there is no way to explain it, it is better to simply keep it mysterious, so that these people can be more fearful.
His original practice of blindly being kind to others has been ruthlessly educated by the ruthless reality, but now he understands that it is better to give both grace and power.
Especially when there is still a big gap between their current strength and theirs, the friendship that is obtained by blindly giving benefits may easily collapse in the end.
If you really become an ally with a level of strength in their minds, the relationship will be more durable and stronger.
Seeing that Lin Sen really didn't mean to elaborate, Qin Qiong and the others didn't think much of themselves, so they simply changed the topic and talked about Li Shimin's follow-up measures, such news was more useful to Lin Sen.
He stayed in this cramped place, and his own level was not up to it, so he couldn't inquire about such news.
Qin Qiong and the others obviously knew that Lin Sen would be interested in this, so they picked this one, and this thing was more pleasant to say.
If Li Shimin simply disposed of the pagoda temple, then he would not be the first emperor of the ages.
Although he himself seems to have a good impression of Buddhism, which can also be seen from his daily words and deeds, he is first the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and then he will consider him personally.
And for an emperor, playing balance is the basic way to survive.
The reason why the Li Tang royal family pulled up the banner of Taoism was, of course, to put gold on their faces, but in fact, it was also to allow Taoists to compete with the Buddhists who were a bit dominant at that time, and check and balance each other.
Including the later introduction of the system that ordained ordination must be approved, in fact, it was all to inhibit the development of Buddhism.
Because the emperors of the past dynasties used the words of Buddhism to build momentum for their own dominance, they were also wary of the weakening of the ruling power by this Buddhist power.
And these worries are actually reflected in the matter of the pagoda temple this time.
Each of the Buddhists has its own armed forces, its own industries and peasants, and a huge mass base.
When such a force really grows and grows, or unites, it will become a huge hidden danger, and it can even be said that it has the power to change the world.
And the Emperor must have a natural vigilance against this, and all the forces that could threaten the seat below their ass should be the target of the attack.
Therefore, Li Shimin has actually been looking for an opportunity to further weaken the power of Buddhism.
It's just that before, his position was not very stable, and the Buddhists had a lot of power to speak in public opinion, so he had to be afraid of three points.
This time it can be said that the limelight of the entire public opinion has been reversed, and the number of shouting and killing of Buddhist temples has gradually increased, which can be regarded as handing the knife handle directly to his hands, and if he doesn't seize the opportunity to play a wave of ruthlessness, wouldn't he be sorry for his wisdom and martial arts.
And Li Shimin's methods did make the entire Buddhist family a little broken, especially all the Buddhist temples around Chang'an, and the loss this time was really not light.
