Chapter 905: True Buddha and False Buddha
"You? What do you say? โ
Faced with the request of the opposite evil star Luo Shi Zhengliang to let him duel with a gun, this temple Jianru was really stupid. Damn, obviously I'm waiting to die, but the other party suddenly came to such a request, which is unbelievable. And even if the other party's request is true, with his current state, how can he fight a duel with the evil star in front of him, who is said to have personally obtained the heads of hundreds of samurai? Is this still looking for death?
"This temple is like this!" With the already bright sky, Masato finally found out who this guy in front of him was. Zhengliang's search can identify the other party, and he can also say the other party's name, because after the last tea party, the guy in front of him asked to see Zhengliang and provided the Luo family with a one-time gift of tens of thousands of stones of grain to show respect for the Luo family. What made Zhengliang feel ridiculous was that when he turned his head, this guy actually took the lead against the Luo family again, and the monks of this era really can't be trusted. Looking at the temple Jianru who was still trembling, Masahiro shouted again:
"Why don't you let the horses come? Scared? โ
"Big ...... Adult ......"
"Do you know why I didn't kill you?"
"No...... Ignorance. Zhengliang's words just spoke the heart of this temple Jianru, so he immediately raised his head cautiously and replied.
"You are my people. How can I kill my own people? I will forgive you for your small transgressions. The Buddha has already told me that you are relying on a false Buddha, and I will not take the initiative to kill you. Don't you hear the sound of the Buddha's mound? โ
"Big ...... Did you hear the voice of the Buddha? โ
"Yes...... That's why I won't kill you. โ
"Oh." This temple Jianru whispered, "I rely on a fake Buddha...... No way! In fact, the first thing he should have questioned was that he was the lord of the evil star in front of him, but as soon as he said Buddha. He was naturally concerned about the problem.
"You bastard! The homes of those people who have finally managed to live a happy life. Burned to the ground by you. If this continues, everyone will starve to death this winter. Do you think the Buddha of great compassion would do such a thing? โ
Unconsciously, the temple was like a full sweat and shimmered with a dull brilliance like lead. He knew very well what kind of person he was, and if the other party was a weak person, he naturally didn't mind showing his prestige, for example, when he usually treated his subordinates in the temple, he would definitely smell his majesty. But when he encounters a bad star like the one in front of him, he naturally has to be a villain carefully. It's just that, even so, when it comes to the Buddha's question, he thinks that he has a little bit of a pound, so he naturally has objections to the method of the evil star in front of him, but even so, he doesn't dare to question it lightly.
"Are you shaking?"
"I didn't ...... No. โ
"Come on, then. If there is a Buddha behind you, you can let the horse come. Masato said again. Actually in the process. Masarashi used to take advantage of the other party's panic to link the Buddha with force. This guy in front of him misunderstood that if he was protected by the Buddha, he would naturally be invincible.
"Good ......" Benzheng Temple Jianru promised, but his eyes were already flustered. He himself has self-knowledge, how can he be the opponent of the evil star in front of him?
"If spring planting is delayed, everyone will starve to death this winter." Masayo's words made Honshoji Jianru immediately recall the difficult life of the Ouchi family civil strife a few years ago. Even his own temple has been greatly affected. War, it has an incredible power, not only means the loss of life, but also withers all things on the earth. When he first attended the tea party, he also thought the same way. However, with the arrival of the Osaka Ishiyama Imperial Monk, under the confusion and coercion of the other party, he began to think that this riot was the Buddha's punishment of the Buddha's enemies. But he is now shaken. It seems that the almighty Buddha did not punish Masashi at all, whether it was the previous Kyushu riot or this riot, every time the believers of the so-called Buddha rioted, they would always be beaten by the evil star in front of them. Why is that?
Zhengliang actually said that the believers are attached to the false Buddha, and the one behind him is the real Buddha. When you think about it, this makes sense. Although Kenru of this temple didn't want to believe it, how could the representative from the Osaka Ishiyama Gobo Shinshu be slashed by the other party.
"Your Excellency," the temple ...... sweating, "You mean, the Buddha wants you not to take the initiative to attack us?" โ
"Nonsense!" Zhengliang reprimanded, "The Buddha has a benevolent heart for all things. He's waiting for you to change your mind. After dealing with these so-called believers several times, Masara realized that in order to convince them, he had to start with the topic of the Buddha.
So why did Zhengliang treat this person like this? Because Masahiro knew that if he kept taking tough measures, the riot would only last longer, and this year's spring ploughing would naturally be affected. In this way, for the sake of the stability of the area occupied by the Luo family in the western country, the Internal Affairs Pavilion will inevitably spend a larger amount of materials to pacify the local area, which will affect the follow-up plans of the Luo family.
This time, the riot of the temple and shrine forces did have a lot of impact on the Luo family, although Masashi had been able to disrupt and relocate most of the local believers and the forces secretly allied with the temple and shrine forces by relocating the Maomin people. However, since the implementation time of the plan was less than half a month, only some densely populated areas and coastal areas in the west of the country carried out the plan relatively quickly, and as for the inland areas, due to the obstruction of mountains and forests, the traffic was slow, so there was a lot of delay. And this time, the mob and the defeated monks and soldiers who participated in the riot, even if Masara burned down all their temples and shrines, they actually knew how to hide in the deep mountains and old forests and be ready to fight guerrillas everywhere at any time.
What is even more strict is that during the riots in Kyushu in the past, because the local leaders were ruled by the Luo family for a long time, these "guerrillas" lost their mass base and could not fight guerrilla warfare with the Luo family for a long time, and they could not even organize guardian attacks from the top retainers of the village who were stationed in various villages by the Luo family. And this time, because there are still many mass bases supporting these "guerrillas" in the inland areas occupied by the Luo family in the western country, it will definitely take a long time for the Luo family to completely pacify these scattered guerrillas. This is not in line with Zhengliang's original plan. So Zhengliang decided to recruit some people who were more influential in the local area and had a tendency to join the Luo family. Then let them persuade the rebels to surrender. And the temple in front of him is Zhengliang's first goal.
"True Buddha...... Fake Buddha ...... "This certificate temple is like holding a spear." Incoherently talking to himself. Several battles down. The evil star in front of him is really not damaged at all, and he can only think that he is relying on a fake Buddha, and Zhengliang is waiting for everyone to change their minds...... He felt anxious, his throat was thirsty, he turned his head and wanted to run, and at the same time he said, "My lord, I ...... it."
"Stop!"
Masato shouted loudly. But this time he didn't catch up, and even waved his hand to signal the surrounding Luo family troops to get out of the way.
So this temple Jianru picked up the spear and ran away quickly. The morning fog was still as thick as Fang Cai's, and his cheeks and feet seemed to be drenched in a drizzle. He ran forward quickly, and suddenly felt a sadness in his chest, and couldn't help but shed tears: "My lord is confused. Why didn't he destroy those of us who had been deceived by false Buddhas in one fell swoop? โ
It's really hard to imagine that just Zhengliang's remarks about the true Buddha and the fake Buddha made Jianru of this temple entangled in his heart because of this. But Masato knows that this is indeed the case. Even in later civilized societies, there will be statements that seem obvious to the discerning to be impossible. But it was believed by some believers. To onlookers, these people are a bit crazy. I even think it's mentally ill, but this does happen, especially in the Warring States period where Masayo is now.
In this way, he fled forward while struggling, and soon the figures of the monks and mob who had fled in a hurry gradually appeared around him. Although they kept shouting, "Those who retreat will fall into hell, and those who enter will go to the Pure Land", did they flee in the direction of the location of the temple? Although the temple is the presiding officer of the temple and is the person who is in power in the temple, due to the escape of the wolf bรจi in the early morning, the temple is full of wolf bรจi at this time, and the face is covered with mud (made when he fell off the horse), and the surrounding deserters were identified and chased because of the sneak attack in the early morning, everyone took care of the escape, and for a time the surrounding deserters did not identify him, and he himself did not identify himself, so naturally others will regard him as a general partner.
The crowd fled all the way, staggering all the way, and finally came to a small river not far from the temple. At this time, the temple Jianru, who was still in a state of madness, listened to the sound of the gurgling water of the river, he stopped and fell to the ground: "My lord! My lord! I'm confused......" He suddenly wowed, crying.
The people around were immediately startled, and some of them first glanced back, they were afraid that there were Luo family's pursuers behind, and the crying guy in front of them would attract the pursuers behind them. The military strength of the Luo family is really terrifying, in the battle in the early morning, most of them were killed, and those Luo family troops didn't even want to be captured. Thinking of the scene of the sea of blood when they fled, they couldn't help but shiver.
And the other part of the people were taken aback by the sudden action of the temple Jianru, and a few kind-hearted monks and soldiers were also ready to comfort the guy in front of them who was estimated to be frightened by the Shura place in the early morning, but at this time, the mud on the face of the temple Jianru was washed away because of his tears, so these people finally recognized the crying guy who was actually the one they used to be so majestic that they were presiding. Everyone immediately hurriedly sent the temple back to the temple.
When the temple returned to the temple, and the temple Jianru was also next to a thatched hut where the temple was located, he met a bald monk who was eating dry food. This monk came to Osaka Ishiyama Gobo with Shimoma Yoriteru, and it is said that he was the left arm and right arm of Shimoma Yoriteru, and he followed Shimoma Yoriteru to make a lot of contributions in the battle between Echizen Province and the Hankura family. Previously, this monk relied on Shimoma Yorisho and Osaka Ishiyama Imperial Workshop as the backstage, and he was not polite to this temple. Now it is estimated that this guy does not know that Shimoma Lai Zhao has been killed by Luo Masara, so he is putting a katana in the dry grass at this time, and is struggling to nibble on dry food.
"This temple is like this. You even dropped the Buddhist book on the spear. The bald monk pointed to the Buddhist book tied to the handle of the sword, "Those who retreat fall into hell, and those who enter will be reborn in the Pure Land", and then sneered at the temple Jianru who was still holding a spear from the Luo family at this time.
This temple Jianru didn't bother to pay attention to the other party's ridicule, but said calmly: "I met that Kyushu eagle Luo clan Zhengliang. โ
"Then kill him!" The bald monk said quite stubbornly, as if he wanted to meet the Kyushu Eagle, but in fact he also escaped from the fiasco in the early morning.
"Heh......" Honshoji Jian sat heavily on the dry grass, "It's incredible that the spear can't hurt that Kyushu eagle no matter what." โ
"Hahaha, that's because you don't have enough faith. If it was me, I would have slashed it earlier. It's a shame. โ
"It's strange that my hands were shaking and my eyes were dizzy. Behind the Kyushu eagle, there seems to be a Buddha radiating light. โ
"Nonsense! The Buddha is on our side. โ
"Huh!" Regarding the statement of the bald monk, this temple Jianru already has another opinion.
"Why are you looking so strangely!" The response to his words finally made the bald monk feel strange.
"When do you think the Buddha will be able to punish adults? Spring has begun, but people do not plough the fields, if summer can not tell the winner, then autumn and winter, what do we eat? โ
"Oh. That's the same thing...... But so what? The bald monk was stunned for a moment, but immediately realized that he would return to Osaka soon, and he naturally didn't care if the people here had anything to eat, so he immediately asked.
"Who exactly did the Buddha want to punish? Don't you think that the Buddha is punishing us and so on? โ
"You?" After listening to the words of Jianru of the temple, the bald monk was stunned again, and then seemed to think of something, so he swallowed heavily and asked cautiously: "So, you threw away the Buddhist book on the gun?" โ
"I don't want to go against the will of the Buddha."
"As I said, the Buddha is on our side." The bald monk emphasized again.
But the Buddha seems to be trying to punish us. I clearly saw the Buddha light shining behind the Kyushu eagle. โ
"This temple is like this, that ...... Is that true? Looking at the calm eyes of the temple Jianru, the bald monk was also surprised at this time.
At this moment, Master Ru, who was in charge of the temple's chanting hall, walked over with a six-foot wooden stick hanging from the Buddha's family: "It turns out that the host and the master are here. There's a great opportunity in front of you! The Buddha's enemy, Zhengliang, had already chased him to the vicinity of the temple of this temple, and had just entered the village formed by a tenant farmer in this temple, and he had already become a bag. Go and kill him. The Master was out of breath and finished speaking in one breath. (To be continued......)
