Chapter 424: If you get into trouble, you have to make up for it (I)

"If His Royal Highness the King of Jin says that he is virtuous? Hehehe......" The palace maid sister smiled and shook her head: "It can be said that benevolence and filial piety can be said, but the queen only gave birth to three sons, and I am afraid that if Your Majesty moves, in the end, the prince's throne will really fall into his hands." When Toshiro said this, although it didn't play a big role, it planted a seed in His Highness's heart. ”

Seeds will sprout, will take root, will grow, will always grow into a towering tree, however, my requirements are not high, I also know that I am not playing conspiracy, these things, or leave it to the palace maid sister to deal with it, the first thing I need to do is to do my own job.

Outside Chang'an City, on the clean and tidy cement avenue, I saw a oneplus ox cart from a distance, the two figures on the car are very familiar, I looked at it carefully, and then I saw clearly, it was really an acquaintance: Isn't it Yuan Daochang and Liushuang Xiaodaogu?

Before I galloped on the horse, Yuan Tiangang heard the sound of rapid hooves behind him and turned his head to look back, just in time to see me. Signaling Liushuang to stop the ox cart, he jumped off the ox cart very chicly, and shook off the dust: "Oh, it turned out to be a beloved brother, Poor Dao really didn't expect to be able to bump into it here." ”

"Jun Youyou, where do you want to go?" I jumped off the horse, arched my hand towards Yuan Daochang and smiled, tilted my face, Liushuang saw that it was me, pouted my small mouth, and saluted me with some reluctance, and I quickly returned the salute.

Yuan Tiangang walked slowly with me, stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "Hehe, don't you want to take a look at the Loyal Soul Shrine again?" There are all people in the old man's view, and they haven't been taken care of for a few days, if these little Taoist priests are allowed to do so, I don't know if there will be trouble. ”

"Having said that, Jun is still grateful for the help of the Dao Chief, otherwise, this Loyal Soul Shrine will be there, and it will be difficult to have someone to cook." I replied with a smile.

Yuan Tiangang glanced at me and smiled: "This place is close to the courtyard gate, why don't we walk slowly and talk while walking?" I have never met the virtuous brother for a long time, but now I have a lot of things I want to talk to the virtuous brother. "Fortunately, the old guy finally changed his words, and he no longer calls me Brother Dao, think about how old is your old man, how old am I? Taking advantage of a verbal preference is not half a point good for me, and after persuading him a few times, Yuan Daochang is finally interesting, but, looking at his melancholy face, I think there is something in my heart, I am also very curious, this old guy eats and drinks well all day, has a lot of money, and is touted in front of him every day, what else can he worry about?

----------------------------------------------------------- let Fang Cheng and Bo Narjin slowly lead the horses behind, while Liushuang still sat on the ox cart, driving the ox cart, and slowly followed behind us.

"Ago, I walked a few more Taoist children in the Taoist temple, and the poor Taoist is really it, alas, ......" Yuan Tiangang sighed. Slowly expressed the worries in my heart, it turned out that there were a few people in the temple this year, but the monk temple in Chang'an City seemed to be full of incense.

After talking about his troubles, Yuan Shenzhu also pretended to sigh with emotion: "Dao Demon Elimination Chief." ”

Hearing this, I almost fell headlong on the cement road, this old guy is really good at talking, the idiom of the Taoist demon chief is used here, really, I don't know what to say, I just think it's funny.

"Poor Taoism is a person who is outside the square, and should not be attached to this, but Poor Taoism can't see the decline of my Taoism, there is no conflict between my Taoism and Buddhism, and it is also persuasive to be kind, but Poor Taoism can't figure it out, why my Taoist believers are not as good as those foreign teachings." Yuan Tiangang knew me well, so there was nothing taboo about talking to me, and besides, he also knew that I didn't like Buddhism.

"Well, my younger brother has also heard a little about these things, and Buddhism is prosperous in my Tang Dynasty, which is really not a good thing." Well, I've heard a lot of this, in the Tang Dynasty, the number of believers in Buddhism reached three or four out of ten, although the Tang Dynasty has vigorously advocated Taoism since the founding of the country, but the believers are only one out of ten people.

In the confrontation with Buddhism is completely at a disadvantage, but it is really a headache, all the way to listen to Yuan Daochang's complaints, to the gate of the courtyard, Yuan Tiangang has not stopped talking, helpless, as the academy of the academy, I have to accompany him to continue to the Loyal Soul Temple.

Well, indeed, the group of people assigned by Yuan Tiangang to the Loyal Soul Temple are very attentive, the Loyal Soul Ancestral Hall, spotless, the towering pines and cypresses in the courtyard are verdant, and as for the full-body bronze statue of Uncle Li, it still looks golden.

Yuan Tiangang seemed to have decided to have a good chat with me today, and dragged me into the east courtyard of the Loyal Soul Temple for these Taoist priests to rest, and a quiet room was also prepared here for Yuan Tiangang. "Liushuang, you go to Chexian Xiangcha, bequeath the virtuous brother, let's continue." Yuan Tiangang and I sat on the couch, but in addition to complaining, there was finally some more content, it turned out that it was because of the inaction of Taoist doctrine, which led to the lack of innate advantages of Taoism.

Yuan Tiangang salivated and the sea was blowing, and I almost fell asleep when I heard it, but he didn't mean to give up at all, and continued to destroy my auditory nerves, more Tang Seng than Tang Seng, I don't think he should be a Taoist, just transfer to become a monk, muttering scriptures all day long, to satisfy your tongue disorder syndrome.

Finally, after an hour, I couldn't help it, raised my hand to interrupt Yuan Tiangang, who still wanted to continue, and asked with a wry smile: "The junior brother is busy with official business, what is the important matter for the Taoist chief to find the younger brother, or just say it directly." "Is this old guy ready to pull until the New Year? We're very busy people, but we don't have so much effort to listen to your nonsense.

When Yuan Tiangang heard what I said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, raised his eyes to look at me, and seemed to be a little embarrassed, or a little embarrassed.

"Why is the Daoist looking at the little brother like this?" I'm a little wondering, could it be something big about me?

"Wait a moment for the beloved virtuous brother, this matter has to be explained in detail from beginning to end, otherwise, the virtuous brother will definitely not know the reason." Yuan Daochang shook the dust and said solemnly.

"Okay, since the Taoist chief said so, now that the junior brother will honestly listen to what is going on." Hooked a railing and placed it under his elbows, put on a more comfortable posture, and motioned to Yuan Daochang, who seemed to be unstoppable, to continue.

"In fact, the cause of this incident is still in the virtuous brother, the virtuous brother must not be in a hurry and listen to the poor Tao from the beginning to the end." Yuan Tiangang began to explain to me the origin and purpose of Taoism.

The source of Taoism is from ancient Shinto; The second is from the Taoist theory of "Lao Tzu", which was first seen in "Lao Tzu's Notes". The earliest origin of Taoism can be traced back to Lao Zhuang, so Taoism worships Lao Tzu as the leader. However, Yuan Tiangang believes that the first official classic of Taoism was the Taiping Sutra, which was completed in the Eastern Han Dynasty, so the Eastern Han Dynasty is regarded as the initial period of Taoism. The official Taoist entity activities of Taoism were the emergence of Taiping Dao and Wudou Midao in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and the three books of "Taiping Sutra", "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed" and "Lao Tzu Xianger Note" are the symbols of the formation of Taoist beliefs and theories.

"My Taoism is divided into different schools, or Yan Lao Zhuang doctrine, or Yan internal and external cultivation, or Yan Fu Fang Shu, however, the doctrine is unified, that is, with the 'Tao' as the core, all things in heaven and earth follow the Tao, and there is a Tao to be born, as the so-called life two, two to three, three to all things, the world and all things are in accordance with the Tao......" Yuan Tiangang explained their teachings to me seriously, and began to talk about Buddhism, and after talking carefully, I finally understood, Yuan Tiangang is looking for me today.

----------------------------------------------------------- Buddhism's teachings are closer to the public, more people-oriented, and their teachings just respond to the idea that everyone in the world is afraid of death, and they have fulfilled everyone's dream of fear of death in the doctrine, our boss Buddha said, don't be afraid, what is there when you die, take a bath when you die, anyway, we divide this world into six ways, and today you are dead, Maybe you can become a Buddha tomorrow, it doesn't matter if you don't become a Buddha, you can also be an animal, anyway, you are always reincarnated within these six realms, which means that you will always wander within these six realms, in a word, life is endless.

Anyway, whether you believe me or not, you are always within these six realms, which not only gives people a sense of comfort, but also makes you feel that Buddhism is really very compassionate, and in this case, the attraction of Buddhism naturally increases.

And what does Taoism say, Taoism tells the big guys, you have to cultivate, or take Wai Dan, that is, those magical little pills, after taking it, you can live a long life or something, but now this road has been cut off by me, a young man who hit me by mistake.

It's because I put on an animal test in front of Uncle Li and a group of Taoists, and as a result, the animals foaming at the mouth and twitching their limbs told these people a truth, this road will not live a long life, but will make you live a shorter life is true, shattering the dream of many Taoist priests to cultivate Dan to attain the Tao, at least, the poisonous and immortal Luo Daochang has hung up his crown in shame and left, and traveled all over the world, saying that he wanted to find another shortcut to ascend to the immortal realm, and not die, the latter words should belong to the dead duck's hard mouth, Because he also admitted that he had lost the last shred of hope for the cultivation of Waidan.
