144 Buddhism moves the River Styx retreats
The appearance of quasi-saints one after another made the situation a little uncontrollable and strangely calm. No matter what others say, judging by the current situation, a big war cannot break out. It's just that the danger is also vigilant, whoever relaxes will definitely be trampled on the ground and humiliated severely.
The Western Paradise has attracted and invited the medicine master and Maitreya who have just achieved quasi-sainthood. Of the five quasi-saints of Buddhism, only these two people are two saints in person, so they are naturally closer, and there are some things that it is best to tell these two people first.
In the middle of the Sanskrit Buddha singing, the guide stopped the hand that was holding the Buddha beads, he opened his eyes, and glanced at Zhun Ti beside him. Quasi-asked the pharmacist and Maitreya: "You two have also become quasi-saints, I don't know what you think of the current situation in the East?" ”
The two glanced at each other, Maitreya smiled and made a gesture of invitation to the pharmacist. The medicine master got up, bowed and saluted, and said, "Returning to the two venerable masters, the disciple thinks that although the east is temporarily calm today, it is only a matter of time before a big war breaks out, but what makes the disciple uncertain is who will detonate the big war?" How to detonate? ”
"Good!" Maitreya answered and said, "The disciple also means the same. ”
Zhun Ti smiled slightly and said, "Do you have an idea?" ”
"The two disciples thought that they should take the initiative." The medicine master and Maitreya said in unison.
"Ha Lu Ha ......" Zhun Ti Da Lu smiled, showing satisfaction and appreciation on his face, and the same was true for the side. Zhun Ti said: "What you two said is good, and it is very much in line with my senior brother's intentions. So, do you two have a way in mind? ”
This time, the medicine master made a request to Maitreya, Maitreya stepped forward, bowed down and said: "The two disciples think that my Buddhism should be good friends with the teachings, resolve the grievances with the teachings, divert the attention of the teachings, and don't let them always stare at my Buddhism." In addition, the two disciples thought that they were. The river Styx on the continent is movable. ”
Two simple sentences said the strategy in his and the pharmacist's mind, and he was also very satisfied with the introduction and quasi-mention. These two disciples are worthy of being their own disciples, and they are indeed very much in line with their hearts, and they are not very different from their thoughts.
On the mainland today, Buddhism is the real danger. Because Buddhism is completely enclosed in exposition. Although with the strength of Buddhism, he is not afraid of expounding the teachings, but now that the teachings have three quasi-saints, who knows when the other disciples of the Lu Dao will break through, if they also break through one after another, it will be for Buddhism. Definitely a deadly threat. Therefore, this threat must be removed as soon as possible.
In fact, the way to lift it is very simple, that is, to give up some territory, resolve the grievances of exposition, and get rid of one's own territory from the encirclement of exposition. And the step of moving the River Styx was to rely on the powerful strength of Buddhism to drive him back to the sea of blood. In this way, the kingdom of Asura became a place of Buddhism, and the lost territory in the exposition of the teachings could be regained. Such. There will also be less gossip from the disciples below.
From this point of view, the two of them are very thoughtful, and they are also very satisfied with the introduction and quasi-mention, but there is one thing that the two of them think is wrong. That's the retreat of Buddhism, and it shouldn't be like that.
Buddhism should indeed retreat in order to resolve the grievances of exposition. But as the two thought, most of them gave up the teaching territory. That's not going to work. In that case, Buddhism has only temporarily withdrawn from the place of exposition, and exposition is not necessarily reassuring. And as soon as they go. It is still next to the teachings, and the teachings are always worried. It's not a good idea. The best way to do this is for the two to have a common enemy and share the pressure with each other.
This enemy, the two of them also thought of, that is the Demon Sect of Red Cloud.
The Demon Sect is definitely not liked by the Sect of Interpretation, and in the place next to them, there is also a small friction between the two sides, but they are restrained by the red cloud, and the two sides have never fought each other. If Buddhism gives up some territory, and then opens up the land of the Demon Sect and adjoins the Sect and the Demon Sect, then the Sect's resentment towards Buddhism will shift a lot, and even because it is afraid that the two sides will merge, they will not dare to act rashly, so as to win over Buddhism.
As long as the two parties converge, all cause and effect can naturally be resolved. When the time comes, if Buddhism gives way to two more steps, then the two sides will still be friends.
After the four people agreed, Maitreya and the medicine master went to Lingshan to convey the will of the two saints, and the Buddha could not deny it after receiving it. He didn't object, he didn't say yes, he just said to do it.
In Buddhism, there is absolutely no problem with Duobao's prestige, and his current status as a Buddha has made him the boss of Western Buddhism, but in some things, Duobao has to obey the meaning of the two sages. If he wants to be self-reliant, he can't do it. And Duobao entered Buddhism in order not to be self-reliant, otherwise he would have entered it back then? All he needed was the great luck of Buddhism. Therefore, as long as it is established on Buddhism, Duobao Nyolai will not stop it.
It's the same this time, after understanding the meaning of the two saints, he immediately arranged for someone to do it. Soon after, the Buddhist disciples met with the explanatory disciples to discuss the situation in each of the various schools. As a gesture of sincerity, Buddhism gave up part of the territory before the negotiations.
As the negotiations deepened, the tacit understanding between the two parties became higher and higher, and Buddhism gave up the excess territory little by little in exchange for the remote territory with little teaching for the purpose of connecting its own territory.
At the end of the year, Buddhism gave up about one-third of its territory, and gained less than one-third and half of its territory from its own teachings, connecting its own power with the demon religion, breaking away from the encirclement of the teachings, but also adjacent to the teachings.
In this way, the teachings of Buddhism, Buddhism, and Demon Religion are adjacent to each other, and they have become the peak of the Three Kingdoms.
This kind of change naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the wilderness, and some smart people thought of the possible purpose of the two religions not long after they moved, you just look at the Styx, this guy saw the actions of Buddhism, and he knew that his Asura country might be in danger.
In the past, his Asura Kingdom was able to gain a foothold because the mainland was too chaotic and attracted the attention of several major sects, but now although the mainland is still chaotic, the power of several major sects has greatly increased, and they have the ability to take action against the Asura Kingdom when they are wary of other sects. And looking at the two religions faced by the Asura country, Explanation and Buddhism, these are all powerful sects, not to mention that the two religions work together, that is, one side does it, and the Styx can't resist it on the mainland!
Thinking about the current situation, Styx could only smile bitterly. Fortunately, his sect is not only on the mainland, but also in the East China Sea. This extra Dao system is the extra luck, which makes Styx very satisfied with the casual step he took at the beginning.
"That's it! When you retreat, you retreat! With a sigh, the Styx of the Sea of Blood ordered the Asura tribe in the Asura country to lead the elites of the various tribes to withdraw from the Asura country and empty the territory.
Styx's movements are fast, and his retreat is beyond many people's expectations, but those who understand Styx feel that they are in the clear.
In the hearts of these older generations, cherishing life is second only to seeking the truth, and there is no exception. The outbreak of conflict with the Explanation of Religion and Buddhism will definitely lead to a big war, and when the time comes, he will face at least the three quasi-saints in the Styx, and if he can't get the two religions to go together, no matter how strong he is in the Styx, he will not be able to stop it.
In this case, retreat is the best choice. It's just that Styx's retreat is not so simple, he let Asura provoke the teachings before retreating, and his retreat seems to have been driven into the teachings.
In this way, the teachings of the Sect were the first to enter the kingdom of Asura, and took advantage of the retreat of the River Styx to occupy a large amount of territory in one fell swoop.
This situation caught the Buddhist side a little off guard, but thinking of the strategy of making friends with the teachings, Duobao Ru resisted the desire to grab the territory in the next life, and directly ordered the Buddhist disciples to give up all the others except for some border places.
Their concessions relieved the teachings, and Hiroshi and others began to reconsider Buddhism. It can be said that Duobao's hand has really opened the way of exchange between the two religions, and if the two religions really cooperate in the future, Duobao's hand will definitely make the first contribution.
In the Wuzhuang Temple of Wanshou Mountain, Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun sat opposite each other, and their faces were a little bad. Styx thought of a possible strategy for Buddhism and expounding the religion, and the two of them naturally thought of it, especially the step bordering the Demon Sect, which made Hongyun very embarrassed.
"Fellow Daoist, you don't have to worry too much. Buddhism has always owed you great cause and effect, and even if they really deal with your demonic religion, they must also consider it carefully. Zhen Yuanzi comforted, but his persuasion could not reassure Hongyun.
What Red Cloud is worried about is not only the Buddhism that will do something to the Demon Sect, but also the development of his own Demon Sect.
Hongyun expected the reaction to Buddhism and didn't care, but what about the development of the Demon Sect? His step to the south was very beautiful, but after that? Judging from the current situation, it seems that the Demon Sect has been blocked, and it is blocked there, and it is simply unable to continue to expand its territory.
A strength that cannot be expanded will be peaceful, and after a long period of tranquility, it will decay. As the master of the Demon Dao, Hongyun naturally had to worry about the Demon Sect. It's just that this kind of worry is not enough for outsiders. And Hongyun still has a faint worry in his heart, that is, he is afraid of expounding the sect to deal with Zhen Yuanzi. When the time comes, Buddhism will involve him, and he will expound on the teachings to deal with Zhen Yuanzi with all his might, and Zhen Yuanzi will definitely not be able to resist.
And Buddhism can also use Zhen Yuanzi to make up for the cause and effect they owe.
This is also the reason why he is reluctant to talk more to Zhen Yuanzi. The two are old friends, and Hongyun inherits the favor of Zhen Yuanzi very much. He is now thinking more about the Demon Dao, hoping to help Zhen Yuanzi disperse the pressure and attract everyone's attention from the breakthrough of the Demon Dao.
In this way, Zhen Yuanzi will be safe. (To be continued......)
