Chapter 264: The Four Great Holy Monks
"Hehe......" Sun Simiao himself laughed, the original concept of Taoism is like this, quiet and inactive.
"What about the Buddha's family?" Li Jing agreed with Li Chong's point of view this time, and then asked.
Li Chong sneered and said, "If there are more self-reliant monks in the Buddhist family, I still don't hate them." ”
There is no need to ask about the military and the lawyers, every dynasty must use these ideas, and these three can be replaced by the words military law and technology.
Sun Simiao smiled, and suddenly said, "If we support Kou Zhong, how can Gongzi Li return to the reporting door?" ”
Li Chongzheng said: "Is the Taoist chief serious? ”
Sun Simiao nodded and said, "Lao Dao still has some influence in the Daomen, at least he can represent some of the people in the Daomen. ”
Li Chong was a little surprised by Sun Simiao's status in the Daomen, but he still replied without hesitation: "Then I can answer the Daoist for Kou Zhong now, Kou Zhong doesn't need the support of the Daomen, but Kou Zhong wants the support of the Daomen." ”
Sun Simiao and Li Jing fell silent together, they needed a little time to think about Li Chong's words, Li Chong's words seemed contradictory, but they must have their own truth. After thinking about it, Sun Simiao and Li Jing both realized that if Daomen supports Kou Zhong, then Daomen is no different from Cihang Jingzhai, once Kou Zhong ascends the throne, he will give Daomen certain privileges, and then there will be a situation where divine power overrides imperial power, this is not impossible, the problem is that Daomen has not completely suppressed the strength of imperial power.
So Kou Zhong can go back on his word, this is very likely, after all, every emperor doesn't want someone to look down on him, the Son of Heaven calls himself the Son of Heaven, but he never really wants a God to control him, just like Yang Guang back then. When the Daomen chooses a spokesperson to compete with Kou Zhong, then history will repeat itself. Kou Zhong may repeat the mistakes of the past, although it is not known who killed the deer, but turmoil is inevitable, and it is the common people who suffer.
After thinking carefully for a while, Sun Simiao said slowly: "I will convey the meaning of Li Gongzi to the Daomen." ”
Li Zhong asked, "What will be the result?" ”
Sun Simiao smiled slightly: "Li Gongzi rest assured." People in the Daomen are not very willing to "purify all sentient beings", and Li Gongzi's worries should not be a problem. ”
"Hehe......" Li Zhong smiled knowingly, Sun Simiao's words are understood in this way, the Taoist sect does not agree with the Buddha gate, the Buddha gate wants to purify all sentient beings, and I can't wait for the whole world to believe in the Buddha. Daomen is different, Daomen pays attention to personal cultivation, in other words, Daomen plays more high-end and sophisticated, and the requirements for their own quality are too high. They love to play with themselves, and they really don't care much about whether the people of the world believe in their ancestors or not.
This is not nonsense, you look at the Buddhist scriptures, they are all about those who don't believe in the Buddha and want to go to hell or something, the Taoist Gate does not say this, the Taoist ancestor is much more generous than the Buddha. And Daomen also has a kind of self-confidence, you don't believe that I am your own loss.
As for the sentient beings in Pudu, they really think too much, and the true monks have to fast and eat. They can't even purify themselves, but they can also purify sentient beings. The Taoist priest is stronger, and generally speaking, the Taoist priest can purify himself.
After saying that, Li Chong finally asked the question in his heart: "Is Daochang Sun waiting for Li Chong?" ”
Sun Simiao said with a smile: "It can be said that there are many people in the Dao Sect who are dissatisfied with what Ning Daoqi has done, and some Daoists have already taken action, and the same is true for the poor Dao. ”
Li Chong didn't ask what the Daomen was doing, everyone had their own secrets, and Li Chong could roughly guess what the means of the Daomen were. In history, Buddhism really did not win, and Li Shimin, whom they supported, ascended to the throne, but Li also claimed to be a descendant of Lao Tzu. In fact, it seems that Daomen has won. What Li Chong couldn't guess was just what means the Daomen used, and of course, it was not ruled out that Li Yuan himself was a believer in the Daomen, although the possibility was pitiful.
The three of them chatted casually about some topics, and the villagers who bought sulfur rode back, and Li Zhong got up to take his leave. Sun Simiao did not stay, and put all his attention on curing diseases and saving people, from this point of view, Sun Simiao is not a good lobbyist, and a good lobbyist must not be a good doctor.
Li Chong and Li Jing rode on horseback, and soon they were about to leave Li Mi's sphere of influence, when two more figures suddenly appeared on the grass in front of them. These two people were dressed in robes, their beards were white, and they were both tall and thin, but standing in place gave people the feeling of standing in the mountains. One of the monks holding a Zen staff chanted a Buddha horn and said in a deep voice: "In front is Li Chong and Li Gongzi." ”
"Huh......" Li Chong reined in his war horse and narrowed his eyes: "The four holy monks? ”
"Jiaxiang ......"
"Emperor's Heart......"
The two monks replied in unison, Li Chong stretched out his hand and nodded on Li Jing, turned over and dismounted, and asked while stepping into the two of them: "It turned out to be Master Jiaxiang and Emperor Xin, not that one of the four holy monks of Buddhism advanced and retreated together, why did only two people come to trouble Li this time?" ”
Master Jiaxiang didn't speak, and Emperor Xin Venerable said loudly: "Daoxin, the two wise monks can't get out, so we can only entertain Li Gongzi by the two of us, please forgive Li Gongzi." ”
"Heh......" Li Chongxiao asked, "Could it be that Master Daoxin and Master Wisdom are entangled by the Yin Sect?" ”
Venerable Emperor Xin sighed and said, "Why does Gongzi Li ask knowingly? ”
Li Chong smiled with satisfaction and asked, "Then I'll ask again knowingly, I don't know how the two masters plan to punish Li Chong?" ”
Venerable Emperor Xin shook his head and said: "Li Gongzi misunderstood, but I just feel that Li Gongzi is quite prejudiced against Buddhism, and the two of us plan to ask Li Gongzi to go back to the Zen Temple to reinterpret Buddhism and avoid fighting." ”
"Wow......" Li Chong's eyes widened and exclaimed: "Interpreting Buddhism, the two masters are really good words, so I take the liberty to ask, does Li want to participate in research for decades?" ”
"If Li Gongzi can comprehend something, then it is okay!" Emperor Heart Venerable nodded as a matter of course.
"If I don't agree, are the two masters going to use demon suppression methods?" Li Zhong slowly straightened his waist and asked word by word.
"Li Gongzi is not a demon ...... yet," Emperor Xin Venerable said half a sentence, and then fell silent.
Li Chong looked back at Li Jing and said in a deep voice: "I am not a demon, and the two masters are not Buddhas, but in my opinion, the Emperor Heart Venerable Master is a little demonic." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Emperor Heart Venerable asked.
"Emperor Heart Venerable...... Is it to take Jane's meaning in the emperor's heart? Li Zhong said coldly.
The Emperor Heart Venerable was speechless.
Li Chong flexed and stretched his fingers to relieve his muscles and bones, and continued: "In addition, I want to remind the two masters, it is not that you can hunt down the evil king Shi Zhixuan, but that the evil king is jealous of Ning Daoqi, otherwise you would have been broken by the evil king a long time ago, people...... You have to be able to see yourself clearly. (To be continued.) )
