But I heard Ke Zhi say: "Master Cui, Brother Bu, Ke also knows that the Buddha's true body relics are the national treasures of the Tang Dynasty, Ke Mou welcomed the Buddha bones this time, just let the Hui people pay respects, once the nine surnames return to the Tang Dynasty, Ke will definitely promise to send the Buddha bones back to the Tang Dynasty, and will never take them for himself." In addition, in order to express Ke's sincerity, Ke is willing to lead 2,000 elite horsemen to help the Tang Emperor capture www.biquge.info and kill the rebellious prince Li Heng! ”

Bu Yunfei sighed secretly. I thought that I could successfully persuade the Hui people to withdraw from the army, but I didn't expect that this Ke Zhi was extremely shrewd, not only proposing to ask for the Buddha's true body relics, but also proposing to help the Tang Emperor capture and kill the prince!

Ke Zhi led his troops to capture and kill Li Heng, which is a good thing at the moment, but in the future, it will be endless! Bu Yunfei knew that for a long time to come, Hui Hui would become an extremely important third-party force between the Tang Dynasty and the Yan Army. The Tang court, no matter who is in power, will inevitably have to use the Hui cavalry to resist the Yan army, the Hui people have always been greedy, great appetite, once too deeply involved in the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty, especially the battle for imperial power, will be endless! If Ke Zhi takes away the Buddha's true body relics again, then the Tang Dynasty will never have peace!

Bu Yunfei sighed secretly, it seems that he underestimated this Kezhi!

Ke Zhi is not only ambitious, but also has a strong ability to act on opportunities. He knew that asking for the Buddha's true body relics from the Tang Dynasty was a non-trivial move, and Cui Guangyuan and Bu Yunfei would not only refuse and make a bad mistake, but also turn their faces on the spot. Therefore, he deliberately swore brothers with Bu Yunfei first, since they were sworn brothers, even if Bu Yunfei did not allow it in his heart, it was not easy to refuse, so he could take advantage of the situation to make more requests.

Bu Yunfei held a hot potato in his hand, and had to smile faintly: ""Brother Ke is willing to help, of course, it's a good thing, but in the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty, it's best not to interfere with the Hui cavalry!" ”

"Why?"

Bu Yunfei sighed: "My Tang Emperor and the crown prince are out of harmony, and the father and son kill each other, which is already a human tragedy, and if you rely on the soldiers of outsiders, it will make the world laugh!" The Tang Dynasty will be discredited and the people will be scattered! An Qingxu's Yan army, on the contrary, can use this to attract people's hearts. In this way, Datang is in danger! To tell you the truth, Ma Weipo's side, the younger brother and Master Cui have already arranged it, don't worry about Brother Lao Ke! ”

Bu Yunfei's rejection of Ke Zhi is not only to avoid future troubles, but also to deliberately make Ke Zhi owe him a favor, and in the future, he can use the powerful force of Hui Hui as he wants to occupy favorable conditions between the Tang Dynasty, the Yan Army, and all forces. As for Ma Weipo, as long as the Hui people don't interfere, Bu Yunfei has enough confidence to control the situation.

"Since Brother Bu has already made arrangements, Ke is relieved!" Ke Zhi heard Bu Yunfei say this, and he was not reluctant: "Then the Buddha's true body relics ......"

"Brother Ke wants to borrow the Buddha's true body relics to let the Hui people convert to Buddhism, so as to unify the Hui and dominate the world!" Bu Yunfei said: "As a brother, you should help Brother Ke!" ”

Ke Zhi was overjoyed: "Then there is Brother Laobu!" ”

"However, Bu thinks that Brother Ke's move is not a good strategy!"

"Why?"

"Of course, Buddhism can help Brother Ke unify and return to the Dharma!" Bu Yunfei said: "However, Brother Ke should know that Buddhism is the state religion of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tubo people also respect Buddhism, and the prosperity of Buddhism in these two countries is not only because of the Buddha's true body relics, but also because the monks of the two countries are like clouds, and Buddhism is intensively studied, and it is respected as a holy place of Buddhism by all countries in the world!" Even without the Buddha's true body relics, the status of the Buddhist holy places in the two countries is unshakable! If Brother Ke establishes Buddhism as the state religion of the Hui Dynasty, it means that the Hui Dynasty will always bow down to the Tang Dynasty and Tubo! ”

"This ......," Ke Zhi looked stunned.

"In addition, Brother Ke has lofty ambitions, and he will never just guard the barbaric land of Mobei! It is difficult for Hui to compete with the Tang Dynasty, so he can only want to develop in the west. Most of the countries in the Western Regions respect Buddhism, and the Hui take Buddhism as the state religion, but the attainments of Buddhism are far inferior to those of the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. Therefore, Brother Ke wants to respect Buddhism in Huifu, but he can unify Huifu, but he can't grow Huihui! And if Hui Hui can't expand and grow, and lives in Mobei, it will eventually be empty! Brother Ke, does the little brother make sense? ”

Ke Zhi nodded: "But it also makes sense!" ”

Bu Yunfei smiled faintly: "What's worse is that today Brother Ke took advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty to forcibly seize the Buddha's true body relics, this matter is not difficult, I estimate that if Brother Ke speaks, the Tang Emperor is extremely helpless and has to agree." However, this is an alliance under the city, and the Tang Emperor is deeply ashamed! Brother Ke is making an enmity with my Datang! An Qingxu is a clown who jumps off the beam, and it won't be long before he will be awarded. Once the situation in Datang is stable, the emperor gathers the strength of the whole country, sends troops back to Hui, and seizes the relics of the Buddha's true body, so as to return to the national strength, and cannot compete with Datang, not only can not hold the Buddha's bones, but I am afraid that Brother Ke is in danger! ”

Ke Zhi broke out in a cold sweat.

Once the Tang Dynasty eases up and waves its army back, Gele Khan and Dengli will definitely kill him to appease the anger of the Tang Dynasty!

"However, if I return to Hui and do not use the Dharma, how can I unify Hui Hui?" Kirchi was a little desperate.

Bu Yunfei's heart moved, and he couldn't help blurting out: "Manichaeism! ”

Manichaeism is a religion founded by Mani, a Persian, in the middle of the 3rd century AD. The origin, development and even demise of this religion has had an incredible process. Like all religions in the world, the origin of Manichaeism is actually very inconspicuous, at that time, Christianity, Zoroastrianism, Islam, Buddhism had flourished, and the global civilized world was almost completely divided by these four major religions.

However, Manichaeism arose at this time, and quickly expanded rapidly to the south, east, and northwest with Persia as the center, constantly encroaching on the territory of the four major religions, and forming a world great religion to compete with the four major religions!

The rise of Manichaeism was largely due to the extraordinary talent of its founder, Mani. This man is a religious know-it-all-trades, proficient in Christianity, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, and Islam. Therefore, the Manichaeism he founded, in fact, is a collection of these four major religions, and Manichaeism established a set of self-justifying theories, that is, the theory of two sects and three worlds, which skillfully integrated the gods and teachings of the four major religions into Manichaeism, and even, in the form of a stealing concept, infiltrated Manichaeism into the four major religions, especially Christianity and Buddhism! Therefore, many Christians and Buddhists, almost unconsciously, have become Manichaeans. Almost overnight, Manichaeism spread to Asia, Europe, and Africa, competing with the four major religions.

However, Manichaeism also rose and fell very quickly. During the heyday of Manichaeism, it was resisted by the four major religions, and after Manichaeism's death, Manichaeism was leaderless, and suddenly it was torn apart, and almost overnight, it quickly retreated from the western continent. By the twenty-first century, Manichaeism had disappeared as an independent religion. Archaeological excavations of Manichaeism can only reveal the glory of Manichaeism at its peak from the remnants of texts and tombs. Even modern religious scholars do not know much about the teachings of Manichaeism.

However, five hundred years after Mani's death, after the total decline of Manichaeism in the West, it was in the East that it was the unbelievable vitality that came to life.

In the eighth century AD, a state with Manichaeism as its state religion emerged in the East. This is the only country in the world where Manichaeism is the state religion!

This country is Hui!

The rise of the Hui Kingdom is a major event in the history of world religions.

Since then, this religion, which has been rejected by the countries of the East and the West and is in its last years, has finally found its roots, taken root and flourished in the Western Regions.

The Manichaeism of the Hui was introduced by the Hui people from the Tang Dynasty during the Anshi Rebellion!

The Hui Kingdom pushed Manichaeism to its peak, and also caused the demise of Manichaeism to be delayed for nearly a thousand years!

Bu Yunfei never expected that this epoch-making event that was enough to change the course of world religion was actually prompted by his words!

Bu Yunfei studied the history of the Tang Dynasty, and the history of the Tang Dynasty inevitably had to come into contact with the history of the Hui, and the Hui, a country with the integration of politics and religion, was inseparable from Manichaeism, so when Ke Zhi asked about the unification of the Hui, Bu Yunfei almost without thinking, and said Manichaeism.

History played a big joke on him!

"Manichaeism!" Ke Zhi suddenly woke up: "Yes, Manichaeism is exactly what I need!" ”

As early as the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Manichaeism has been introduced to the Central Plains, but, like the situation of Buddhist Tantra, because Taoism and Buddhism are in an unshakable dominant position in the Tang Dynasty, Manichaeism has always been marginalized in the Tang Dynasty, so that Manichaeans have to rely on Buddhism to preach. One of the most widespread theories is to change the concept of the three Buddhas of Buddhism into the Manichaean theory of the three worlds. Because of this, Manichaeism is deeply hated by Buddhists. Because Buddhism had a considerable right to speak in the Tang court, Buddhists said that the court would ban Manichaeism. Therefore, Manichaeism can only be quietly spread among the people in the Tang Dynasty.

However, Manichaeism has extremely tenacious vitality, and it already has a considerable audience among the people of the Tang Dynasty, and even among the countries of Tibet, Hui, and the Western Regions! Especially in the Hui people, who are still in the primitive totem worship, a religion with a complete doctrinal system is quite convincing! And the Manichaean theory of two sects and three worlds just confirms the state of existence of the Uighurs who are in a primitive nomadic state - the chaotic state of darkness and light!
