Chapter 180: Religious Beliefs

Ma Chao was puzzled for a while, and frowned: "The old immortal has something to say, but it's okay to talk about it!" ”

Yu Jiluo groaned, and said: "If the general wants to solve this calamity, the only way is to cultivate with the poor path, and use the merits he has accumulated to slowly change his life, and there is no other way!" ”

Ma Chao secretly sneered in his heart, and said without moving: "The old immortal is a generous man in the world, and it is okay to let the general cultivate, but the old immortal must first come up with some convincing skills!" Otherwise, Ben Jiang would not be a three-year-old child, how could he practice these useless Dao techniques just a few words from you? ”

Yu Ji said: "The poor Dao Fu Water has saved countless people, how can you say that the technique is useless?" As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and continued: "General, look at the palm thunder of the poor road!" I saw a flick of the big sleeves, and the dry old hand waved from the top down, "Boom!" There was a bang, and a pit the size of a bowl was directly blown out on the ground a foot away, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

Ma was shocked, but soon smelled a familiar smell, which was very similar to the smell of gunpowder that permeated the Spring Festival in later generations, and the small pit that exploded was also charred black.

Yu Ji saw that Ma Chao was shocked on the spot, and he was extremely proud, and said with a smile: "The palm of the thunder is not a small Shuer, the real immortal travels to the Beihai Mo Cangwu, drinks Qionglu, rides a flying dragon, calls for wind and rain, and scatters beans into soldiers."

Ma Chao smiled and said, "If the old fairy has something to say, let's just say it!" This kind of trick to deceive Huangkou Xiaoer is acceptable, but it is slightly insufficient to deceive Ben General. You and other monks are just giving medicine to harm people in advance, and then giving the antidote, the people are stupid, is it that the general is also an ignorant people? As for this palm thunder, it was hidden in the sleeve in advance, this kind of thunder is the product of the failure of alchemy of Er and other alchemists, and when the thunder collides violently with the ground, it will produce an explosion, and the power is not more than Erer! ”

Yu Ji's face changed greatly, and he was about to refute it, but he heard Ma Chao continue: "Ming people don't say dark words, the old immortal has some abilities that are certain, but if you want to say that you are an immortal, you will never believe it." You have repeatedly wooed the general, but you just want to preach under the general's rule, let's open the skylight and say something! How is it? ”

Yu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his fists and said: "Champion Hou is really an ordinary person!" That's what Poor Dao means. In this way, the general agreed to this! ”

Ma Chao said: "Please also ask the old fairy to speak clearly!" ”

Yu Jidao: "Now that Western Buddhism has been introduced to the Central Plains for more than 100 years, my local Taoism has been greatly squeezed, and almost everyone in Xuzhou believes in Buddhism under the promotion of Thorn Shi Taoqian!" Poor Dao came here, and he just wanted to beg the champion Hou Neng to vigorously promote Taoism under his rule! ”

Ma Chao nodded, knowing that what Yu Ji said was true, and pondered for a while: "Taoism pays attention to inaction, respects Taoism and nature, and its essence is conducive to strengthening the body, cultivating the mind and cultivating the surname, and Taoism is engaged in production and does not taboo marriage, which is indeed stronger than Buddhism in these aspects!" But Ben Jiang has never believed in ghosts and gods, let alone the nonsense of Buddhism! ”

Yu Ji frowned and asked, "In this way, does the champion Hou agree to this?" ”

Ma Chao said: "I can't talk about agreeing, I can't talk about not agreeing, if you want to preach, you can preach it, as long as you don't confuse the people and don't endanger the community, there will naturally be no reason to prohibit it, but it will never be admired!" Buddhism's teachings are biased, do not produce, prohibit marriage, and cut off children, which is not conducive to the progress of society. ”

Ma Chao is also learning from the lessons of history, Buddhism began with Sakyamuni, and it has been transmitted to the land of China in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Han and Emperor periods. The most prosperous time was in the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Middle Tang Dynasty and the Late Tang Dynasty. At that time, people were extremely fanatical about Buddhism, such as someone cutting their own flesh in front of the public to feed the birds, bleeding all over the body but the color remained the same, and some monks hung their bodies with iron hooks, lit a thousand lamps, and sat still all night. At that time, there were temples everywhere and there were countless monks.

These monks did not produce anything, did not marry a wife, and enjoyed many privileges, which greatly hindered the development of productive forces and population growth. For this reason, there have been many movements to exterminate Buddhism in history, the most famous being the "Three Martial Arts and One Sect to Exterminate Buddha". Ma Chao has the prophet of the traverser, so he naturally wants to strangle Buddhism in the cradle.

Yu Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately bowed: "Champion Hou's move is very good!" On behalf of the cultivators of the world, the poor road thanks the general, please accept the poor way! With that, he flicked his sleeves and bowed down.

Ma Chao helped Yu Ji up and said: "The old immortal doesn't have to be like this, he will still have something to ask for, if the old immortal is willing to help with all his might, it will not be a problem for the Taoist to build a few Taoist temples!" ”

Yu Ji was overjoyed and said urgently: "General, please speak, the poor Dao knows everything, and the words are endless." ”

Ma Chao asked, "Can the old immortal be proficient in room and alchemy?" ”

Yu Ji said proudly: "The technique in the room is the way of yin and yang, pay attention to the harmony of yin and yang, and the harmony of yin and yang, which is the only way to strengthen the body and prolong life!" Alchemy can cure all kinds of diseases, if you can refine the Nine Turns Golden Pill, it is not a lie to become an immortal! ”

Ma Chao said: "Ben Jiang doesn't want to become an immortal, he just wants to live a little longer, can the old immortal pass on the art in the room to Ben General?" In addition, there will be a kind of paste-like medicinal material, which has many impurities, I want to ask the old fairy to remove the miscellaneous essence, practice it into a kind of elixir, and pass the method and steps to the general, these two things, can it be done? ”

Yu Ji didn't think about it, and replied happily: "This matter is easy to do, Poor Dao can now pass on the Fang Zhongshu that can strengthen the body and prolong life to the general, as for refining the pill, you have to let Poor Dao study it!" ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed, the ancient Taoist room technique was not a lie, Zuo Ci was good at this way, and lived for more than 130 years. His apprentice, Ge Xuan, who is one of the four great heavenly masters in mythology, lived to be more than 150 years old, and Ge Hong, the author of "Hug Puzi", also lived to be more than 120 years old.

Ma Chao, as a person who crosses, naturally wants to live longer, and this room in the house is undoubtedly a good way, which can not only xxoo, but also prolong life and have many children and grandchildren. The most important thing is that he still has many wives to be satisfied, if he doesn't have some ability, he can't be bombed? Therefore, Ma Chao had planned to look for Zuo Ci for a long time, but he didn't expect Zuo Ci to find Yu Ji, who was as famous as Zuo Ci.

Then the two discussed the art of the room in the big tent of the Chinese army, Yu Ji Banxian's identity is not fake, he is extremely proficient in the way of the five elements of yin and yang, and has good medical skills.

Subsequently, Ma Chao ordered someone to bring a large cigarette paste brought with the army to Yu Ji to study, this thing is a miracle medicine for pain, it is absolutely harmless to take it in small amounts, and no one has found that this substance can be addicted. Therefore, Ma Chao had to bring some with him every time he went out, which could be used to cure diseases and relieve pain, and secondly, he occasionally rewarded the sergeants for refreshment during continuous battles, and the effect was remarkable.

Yu Ji is good at alchemy, but he doesn't know tobacco and soil, but this simple work of removing miscellaneous essence is naturally difficult for him, a master of alchemy. After this incident, the big tobacco paste in Ma Chao's hand finally turned into opium, and its huge effect will be explained in the following article, so I will not mention it for the time being.

The next time, Ma Chao led 10,000 troops to Rongyang City to fight, and soon Li Ru took Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, Hua Xiong, Xu Rong, and Zhao Cen to lead the army.

Ma Chao cooperated with Pang De and Zhao Yun to take a hundred steps forward, just in time to meet Li Ru and lead the six generals. didn't talk nonsense at the moment, and asked straight to the point: "I don't see you for three days, Wen Youke has made a final decision!" ”

Li Ru said: "Champion Hou really can't give up the land of Guanzhong to me? If the champion Hou Ken makes concessions, we are willing to lead the army to surrender, and there will be no two hearts in the future! ”

Ma Chao shook his head and said: "Wen You is also an understanding person, you are all Dong Thief's henchmen and strategists, swearing to kill the young emperor, poison the mother of the country, kidnap the Son of Heaven, and cause chaos in the world, such a big crime always needs someone to bear." If you were a general, would you do such a foolish act? After all, this world is not the only one who can do whatever he wants, and all the princes of Kanto, and even the people of the world are looking at this? ”

Li Ru sighed deeply when he heard this, Li Dao and the others were also gloomy, in fact, he didn't know anything in his heart, but he didn't give up!

Ma Chao said again: "It is the best choice for you to cross to the east and go to sea, I will leave you 20,000 elite soldiers, bring enough weapons and two years of grain and grass, why is it difficult to pacify a group of natives?" At that time, wouldn't it be better for you to be the king and hegemon on the island, why do you have to return to Guanzhong? In this way, the general would have been able to declare that he would exile you from the country. Ten years later, when the overall situation of Middle-earth has been decided, and the people have forgotten about it, if you return, it will be considered a meritorious person, and you will be able to correct your name. ”

Li Ru smiled bitterly: "So far, it has to be like this, but I don't know how the champion Hou plans to arrange this matter?" Are the Son of Heaven and the ministers going to die? Still want to live? ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed in his heart, and said with a straight face: "Nature is to live, what is the use of the dead Son of Heaven?" Besides, the way out must be in the name of the Son of Heaven, and you must not harm the surname of the Son of Heaven! ”

After a pause, he said: "You can hand over the Son of Heaven and the ministers first, and you will be reorganized and exiled in the name of the Son of Heaven." This move is enough to block the mouths of people all over the world! As for your family members are all in Luoyang City, it is useless to come, just give it back to you! ”

Li Ru nodded, and said: "Okay, then it is a word, we will immediately hand over the Son of Heaven and a group of ministers, and temporarily garrison troops in Rongyang City, and then we can set off when we are ready to stop after the championship!" The grain and grass during this period still need to be bothered by the champion Hou Duoduo! ”

"Well said! Say! Ma Chao said with a smile: "You don't need to go to sea all, those who are notorious such as General Xu Rong and General Huaxiong can stay under the command of this general, but Li Ru, Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou must temporarily leave Middle-earth, otherwise Ben will not be able to explain to the people of the world!" ”

Xu Rong and Hua Xiong glanced at each other, hugged their fists and said: "Thanks to the champion Hou Jiao's love, but Rong can't stay in Middle-earth alone!" I wish to go to sea with the army to exterminate the Japanese people! ”

Hua Xiong also hugged his fists and said: "Xie Guanhou appreciates, Hua Xiong is also willing to go to sea with the military division to make contributions!" (To be continued.) )
