Chapter 136: The Buddha and the Tao Fight
ps
If you know that the so-called reinforcements are only 100 people, I don't know how to feel?
However, although the number of reinforcements was small, they were all the elite of the Hexi army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
What's more, in addition to Wang Zhongde, a tiger general, even the frustrated Qu Mengxun, who is both civil and military, is also among them.
Originally, Wei Shuo did not plan to reuse Fuqu Mengxun, but Wang Zhongde was obviously unable to cope with the complicated situation.
It is undeniable that Wang Zhongde is brave and good at fighting and is a tiger general, but his ability focuses on the way of battle formation, but he is not good at diplomatic activities.
After much consideration, Wei Shuo sent Fuqu Mengxun out to serve as the chief envoy of the mission.
To be honest, this was a bit of a surprise.
He was ready to be hidden in the snow for five years, or even ten years, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to be on his own so soon.
chose Fuqu Mengxun because only he is the most suitable, and now Wei Shuo has Song Xuan, Zhang Zhan, Cui Hao, Shi Wei, Zong Chang and other people; Wu has Li Wei, Du Jin, Wang Zhenxi, Duan Ye, Wang Zhongde and other generals, which can be regarded as advisers like rain and soldiers like clouds.
However, among them, they are either unsuitable and do not have the ability to take charge of themselves; Either it is suitable, but it is in an important position, and it can't leave Hexi for a moment.
Only Fuqu Mengxun was both civil and military, and there was no other ministry except for being in charge of the secretary and prison.
Although Wei Shuo is still not completely at ease with him, he is not worried about his dissenting intentions when he goes south to the plateau this time.
Otherwise, not to mention that Wang Zhongde and the ten martial arts academy students would not spare him.
It is estimated that even the Tuyuhun people will cut off his head and ask Wei Shuo for his guilt.
……
When everyone in Hexi was concerned about the situation on the plateau, Liu Bobo was the only one who was detached and listened to Kumarosh's lecture without distraction.
In a large spacious meditation room, Liu Bobo holds a yellowed scroll of old scriptures in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, listening to Kumarosh reciting the Sanskrit version of Tianzhu's original Buddhist scriptures.
Inside, Kumarosh recites the original Tianzhu scriptures, which he translates into Chinese and compares them with the old scriptures in Liu Bobo's hand in order to find the fallacies.
The old scriptures in Liu Bobo's hand were translated by the local Shamen monks according to the explanations of the monks who came to teach Tianzhu since the previous dynasty.
Due to the limitations of language and cultural level, the translated Buddhist scriptures are full of errors, loopholes, and even opposite meanings.
Kumarosh's father was a Tianzhu man, and he was born in Guizi, and he had contact with the Han people since he was a child, so he was able to be proficient in the three Chinese languages, which gave him an advantage in the translation of Buddhist scriptures that many monks did not have.
After listening to Kumarosh's teachings, Liu Bobo gradually understood the fundamental meaning of Buddhism, which fascinated him, and every day in addition to eating and sleeping, he took a car to the temple and listened to Kumarosh's lectures on Buddhism with the monks.
Listening to Kumarosh's lectures was a higher level of spiritual enjoyment for Liu Bobo, which always made him unconsciously intoxicated.
Liu Bobo and his entourage were obsessed with Buddhism, which not only made Wei Shuo happy, but also made Buddhism have a different mind.
However, before Buddhism could take action, a group of promising people came to Hexi, thus provoking a new Buddhist dispute.
……
"Hexi, what a good place."
Cheng Gongxing, who had just returned from a visit to Kunlun Mountain, couldn't help but sigh.
Cheng Gongxing has been studious since he was a child, and he is also a Confucian Taoist, especially good at arithmetic.
When he grew up, he was determined to follow the Tao and wanted to travel all over the famous mountains to collect medicine and cultivate immortals.
In the past few years, the famous rivers and fairy caves in the Central Plains have been visited by him one by one.
This time, he traveled thousands of miles to Hexi, in order to have a glimpse of Kunlun Mountain, which is known as the world's first sacred mountain.
Who knew that there were no immortals in Kunlun Mountain, but Cheng Gongxing was attracted by Hexi's inhibition of Buddha's actions.
As one of the leaders of the Northern Daomen, Cheng Gongxing knew that the sect was in a difficult situation, and there were few supporters of the Daoist monarchs in various places.
In the past 100 years, it is thanks to the support of the Hulu monarch that Buddhism has blossomed and borne fruit in the north, and gradually overwhelmed the Daomen.
Whenever he thought of this, Cheng Gongxing was not only saddened by the decline of Taoism, but also hated the suppression of Taoism by those Hulu monarchs.
Because of this, he ran thousands of miles to Kunlun Mountain, but he found the unexpected joy when he arrived in Hexi.
As the only Han Chinese regime in the north, Hexi not only did not suppress Taoism, but suppressed the development of Buddhism everywhere.
It's just that Hexi is remote, and there are no talents in the Daomen here, so the situation has not been opened.
Thinking of this, Cheng Gongxing cleaned up a little and walked towards the Wei Mansion.
……
On this day, as soon as he returned to the house after handling official business, Wei Shuo didn't have time to catch his breath when he saw Kang Long hurriedly coming in.
"Lord, there is a Taoist priest outside the door who asks to see you."
"Daoist? Where did the Taoist priest come from? ”
"He calls himself a person from Jiaodong, surnamed Chenggong, and famous."
"Did you ask him what he meant?"
"I asked, but he didn't say it, he had to ask to see Daduhu."
Knowing that a Taoist priest came to the door, Wei Shuo pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. At present, Buddhism is stubbornly reluctant to cooperate, and he can only start from Taoism.
It was only the lack of prosperity and the lack of leaders in Hexi that the religious reform was slow to bear fruit.
"Invite him in, I just want to find someone to ask some questions about Taoism."
"Could it be that God wants to help something succeed?"
You can't blame Wei Shuo for having this idea, it's too coincidental.
He just had the intention of looking for religious people to reform Taoism, but he didn't expect that a Cheng Gongxing would come to his door today.
Soon I saw Kang Long leading a middle-aged Taoist priest in, wearing a green robe, with a belt tied around his waist, black hair like a waterfall dancing without wind, a pair of clear eyes shining with wisdom, and his body was slightly thin.
The clothes flutter in the wind, and the whole person seems to be in harmony with heaven and earth, a style of fairy wind and bones.
"The poor road becomes a public prosperity, and I will meet the protection of the capital."
Cheng Gongxing paid homage according to the ceremony, and did not have any intention of slacking off because of Wei Shuo's youth, but secretly cheered up.
He knew very well that the young Dadu Hu in front of him was not an ordinary person, and even such a powerful force as the family had to bow his head in front of him, which showed how powerful his methods were.
"The Taoist is not practicing in the Cave Mansion, what are you doing when you come to the Wei Mansion to see you?"
"Poor Dao is here to congratulate the capital."
"Oh? I don't know what to like next? ”
"The poor Dao was originally practicing in Huashan, and suddenly pinched his fingers to know that Allah had come into the world."
"Then the poor road traveled all over the world, just to find the master who calmed the world, but unfortunately he got nothing for several years."
"Just when Poor Dao was disappointed, he didn't think about it, but he occasionally gained something on Kunlun Mountain."
"Visiting the dragon veins in the Kunlun Mountains through the poor road shows that the omen of Allah should be on the body of Dadu Protector."
Wei Shuo had to admit that people who engage in religion are naturally good-mouthed.
The Cheng Gongxing in front of him is like this, and the Buddhist monks he has seen before are also like this, one can say more than the other.
Fortunately, Wei Shuo himself is from modern times, and he was really fooled by the other party.
"Dao Chief, these vain things, Shuo doesn't dare to be interested."
"If you have anything to say, Shuo is willing to help you."
"It just so happens that Shuo still has some Taoist questions and wants to discuss a thing or two with the Taoist chief, I don't know if the chief is willing to give advice?"
flickered, but saw that Wei Shuo was unmoved, knowing that he was an understanding person and would never be fooled by him.
Cheng Gongxing immediately became honest and bowed down and responded: "I don't dare to say anything to teach, most of them are protected but have doubts, and the poor road should know everything." ”
"Okay, Dao Chang is refreshing! Today, Shuo is willing to drink and talk with the Taoist chief, and rest when he is drunk. ”
Soon, a servant served wine, and Wei Shuo and Cheng Gongxing sat down and enjoyed the wine and food comfortably.
Maybe it was the first time to drink wine, Cheng Gongxing couldn't hold his weight, and he was slightly drunk after a while. As soon as this wine came up, I couldn't help but talk more.
"I don't know why the long man came here today?"
"Alas, it's hard to put it into words!" Cheng Gongxing put the wine cup on the table, and poured bitter water on Wei Shuo with the wine.
"Most of them don't know anything, and the poor Tao travels all over the world, except for Hexi, there is no one who supports Taoism. Except for the Eastern Jin Dynasty because of the advocating of light metaphysics, Taoism is still prosperous, and the development of Taoism in other places is day by day. ”
"From Shi Le and Shi Hu to Fu Jian and Murong Chui, all the Hulu monarchs in the north have all supported Buddhism."
"As the leader of the Heavenly Master Dao of the Northern Earth, Poor Dao feels extremely sad to see the Dao Sect declining day by day."
"Just when the poor Dao was desperate and planned to find a famous Sichuan Immortal Mansion to live in seclusion and not ask about the world, he found that Hexi was vigorously suppressing the Buddha."
"Poor Dao came here today, just to ask Dadu Hu, since you don't want to see Buddhism, I don't know if you are willing to support my Daomen?"
