Chapter Seventy-Three: Wind and Rain

With Yang Guang's order, every Buddhist temple in Chang'an City was uprooted under the leadership of a group of little eunuchs, there were Heavenly Demon War Puppets in front of the road, and there were hundreds of thousands of Royal Forest Army support, none of the large and small temples in Chang'an City could escape, only a few masters escaped the pursuit of the Heavenly Demon War Puppet and the Royal Forest Army, and escaped from Chang'an City.

For a time, the city of Chang'an was stormy, and there were fewer pedestrians on the streets, only a large number of troops were still searching for fugitive monks from house to house.

In the study, Yang Guang sat at the table and listened to the officials in front of him report on the situation in recent days.

"Your Majesty, all the 121 large and small Buddhist temples in Chang'an City have been bulldozed, and all the wealth has been collected into the treasury, which is equivalent to about 30 million taels of gold."

After Yang Guang listened, he closed his eyes and said coldly: "Hehehe! These are the people's fat and people's ointment, just a few Buddhist temples have wealth that is equivalent to my Sui hundred years of taxes, a good Buddha, a good Pudu sentient beings! ”

The people below heard Yang Guang's words and didn't dare to answer, Yang Guang's actions in recent days have made them feel frightened, maybe because of one more word, they have to explain here today.

"All of you go down!"

Yang Guang waved away everyone and said to Yuwen Tuo beside him: "Master Yuwen, now that the Buddhist temple in Chang'an City does not exist, it is time to take the second step, I want the people of the Great Sui to know that my approach is correct." ”

"Maybe now they will resent me, but ten or twenty years from now, they will find out how right my decision is!"

"What Your Majesty said is very true, but the people are too stupid to understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts with their wisdom." Yuwen Tuo opened his mouth and said, the people only see what is in front of them, but Yang Guang and he both see thousands of years later, this is the difference between a wise man and a fool.

Unlike the stormy city in Chang'an City, Luoyang City is now full of singing and dancing, and what happened in Chang'an City has not affected it in the slightest.

The people of the world are still living their own small lives, and only some upper-class people can faintly feel a sense of impending a storm, and there is not much peace in the world.

The fact that Yang Guang wiped out the Buddhist temples in Chang'an City in the first battle has been spread all over the world, but all the people except the Buddha Gate have the attitude of watching the fire from the other side, and they are actually happy to see this kind of thing.

Today's Buddhism is too powerful, it is a threat to all the forces in the world, how can others sleep soundly in the couch, and those who can be the masters of the previous forces are some people who understand, if they are allowed to continue to be strong, they will be the next Great Sui Yang family tomorrow.

In these days, the concubine has visited all the big and small forces in the world, and all walks of life are against the king, but no one is willing to lend a hand to Buddhism.

How can human favor be important to its own life, and Yang Guang is only targeting Buddhism now, so that these two parties can consume each other, and almost all forces are happy to see it.

In the meditation monastery, the monk Yuantong found Zhang Daoyi, who was reading the Buddhist scriptures.

Originally, the Yuantong monk thought that Zhang Daoyi had been staying here to find an opportunity to seize He's Bi, but he didn't expect that these days, Zhang Daoyi had been reading Buddhist scriptures in the temple's scripture pavilion without leaving home, without any small movements, which made him feel a little unbelievable when he had been paying attention to Zhang Daoyi's movements.

Seeing Monk Yuantong coming over, Zhang Daoyi closed the Buddhist scripture in his hand and asked with a smile, "Why does Master Yuantong have time to come over today?" ”

"Amitabha!" Monk Yuantong recited the Buddha's name, and then said: "The old monk came here today to ask the layman for something, and I hope the layman can agree." ”

Zhang Daoyi said with a smile when he heard this: "I don't know what it is?" ”

"Now the tyrant Yang Guang wants to destroy the foundation of my Buddhism, and my Buddhism has decided to integrate the power of Buddhism and go to Chang'an to destroy the tyrant, and I hope that the layman can help my Buddhism!" Monk Yuantong said.

After the Yuantong monk finished speaking, Zhang Daoyi did not answer, but just looked at the Yuantong monk with a smile.

How can there be a reason in the world to only do things without charging money, the Yuantong monk wants him Zhang Daoyi to work hard but refuses to do more benefits, how could Zhang Daoyi agree, besides, he is a person from Yang Guang's side, and the old monk Yuantong begged him to regret it.

The atmosphere froze for a while, and the half-ringing Yuantong monk spoke again: "It's the monk I am abrupt, I am willing to give the Diamond Sutra annotated by the Buddha himself to the layman for a look, just ask the layman to lend a hand." ”

When Zhang Daoyi heard this, he did not agree directly, but made a reflection.

Seeing this, the monk Yuantong said again: "The Diamond Sutra contains the original holy path of the Buddha, if the layman goes to the enlightenment, it is possible to understand the key to the holy way, adding a little hope of breaking into the holy realm!" ”

Yuantong was determined to pull Zhang Daoyi this time, and he knew that even if it was just to add a little hope of breaking through the Holy Realm, a person like Zhang Daoyi would not be able to let go of the Supreme Grandmaster Da Perfection.

In fact, everything Zhang Daoyi has is just for Yuantong to see, if he agrees too happily, it is easy for people to have some associations, and if he is recognized, it will be a little troublesome.

"Okay, I promised you about this, but you have to show me the Diamond Sutra first!" Zhang Daoyi finally said.

Hearing Zhang Daoyi's promise, Yuantong was overjoyed, but his face did not show the slightest.

"It's according to the layman!" Yuantong said and took out a gray book from his arms and handed it to Zhang Daoyi.

This is the Diamond Sutra annotated by the Buddha himself, and the Yuantong monk had brought it with him before he came, and he knew that Zhang Daoyi could not refuse this condition.

He is not afraid that Zhang Dao will take things and do nothing, the characters who can achieve the supreme grandmaster have their own pride, like this kind of untrustworthy thing, no supreme grandmaster will do it.

After the Yuantong monk left, Zhang Dao began to carefully look at the Diamond Sutra in his hand.

Unlike ordinary books, this Diamond Sutra is made of leaves of a tree, and if Zhang Daoyi is not mistaken, these are the leaves of the Bodhi tree.

The Bodhi tree has always been regarded as a sacred tree in Buddhism, and it is said that the Buddha meditated under the Bodhi tree for seven days and realized the Buddha's path.

And the Diamond Sutra in his hand is made of palm-sized leaves of the Bodhi tree, which have been specially treated so that they can remain immortal for 10,000 years.

Looking at the Diamond Sutra, there are some golden Sanskrit texts inside, Sanskrit is written very neatly, and the small characters are as vigorous as a dragon, and they have their own style and bones.

There is a trace of pure fragrance on the book, and if ordinary people smell this fragrance, it will make the mind calm and not distracted.

"It's not ink!" Zhang Daoyi touched the handwriting on the book, and a thought flashed in his heart.
