Chapter 106: Scholar, Taoist, Monk
Longmen Mansion has always been a very special place. If Yujing is the capital of Daomen, then Longmen Mansion was once the capital of Confucianism, and Ziwei City and Mingtang are about equivalent to Zifu and Jinque. Although after Daomen defeated Confucianism, they forced Confucianism to cede the Vientiane School Palace and changed the Vientiane School Palace to the Vientiane Dao Palace, Confucianism still had a strong influence in Longmen Mansion.
Later, Daomen and Buddhism went to war, and in order to suppress Buddhism, Daomen relaxed various restrictions on Confucianism, so that Confucianism got rid of the fate of the defeated people. In order to show sincerity, although Daomen did not return Ziwei City and Mingtang to Confucianism, they moved Zhongzhou Daofu to Beibi Mountain.
In addition, Buddhism and Taoism negotiated peace, and the location was also set in Longmen Mansion. The two sides redrew the boundaries, and the Buddha Gate recognized the dominance of the Daomen in the Western Regions, and the Daomen returned the Jingchan Temple outside the Longmen Mansion to the Buddha Gate.
There is a saying on the rivers and lakes that there are four cities in Zhongzhou, one is the Longmen Divine Capital City, one is the Beibi Ghost City, one is the Zhongyue Buddha City, and the other is the city that never sleeps.
Shendu City refers to the capital city of Longmen Mansion, and it is also the state city of Zhongzhou, which has been inherited for thousands of years and is the ancient capital of the Nine Dynasties; The ghost city in the north refers to the ghost country cave in the north of the mountain, where there are countless ghosts and corpses, almost like the yin of the drunken capital. The city of no day and night is said to be the "paradise of paradise" of the Daomen, located in the belly of the mountain, regardless of day and night, hanging lanterns and lighting lamps and candles are innumerable, looking at it, the pavilions are stacked on top of each other, the long corridor is connected with the long corridor, all the lights are brilliant, look at it, it is red, so it is known as the city of no day and the city that never sleeps.
As for the Zhongyue Buddha City, it is located in the Central Plains Buddhism Ancestral Courtyard Jingzen Temple located on the Zhongyue, the Jingzen Temple is big, a total of 1,000 palaces, among which there are three nine-storey buildings, the inner and outer cities are threefold, looking at it from afar, countless temples are stacked on top of each other, such as the city in general, so it is called "Buddha City" again.
Therefore, in addition to the Taoist and Confucian forces, there are also Buddhist forces in Longmen Mansion, and the Yanxiu monk who was blacklisted by Qi Xuansu was born in Jingchan Temple.
As soon as there are more forces, there will be more gaps, and it will be easier to fish in troubled waters. Therefore, people from all walks of life and secret associations are very partial to Longmen Mansion, which can be described as a mixture.
In other words, Daomen's control over Longmen Mansion is far inferior to that of Xijing Mansion.
Although Longmen Mansion is surrounded by various Daomen forces, it is difficult for there to be a secret association to make waves here, but because the control of Daomen has declined, all kinds of petty fights are inevitable. Many people who were arrested by the Daomen will also secretly come to Longmen Mansion to live in seclusion, not that when they arrive at Longmen Mansion, Daomen will not dare to arrest people, but the arrest will be much smaller, as long as they change their names and surnames, and be low-key and careful, most of them will be fine.
This is the reason why these Jianghu people dare to openly meet in the restaurant here.
In this gathering, there are three people in the lead, namely the scholar Song Luodi, the Taoist Master Thunderbolt, and the monk Master Denghua, which just correspond to the three religions of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, but the three are not orthodox Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism disciples, just some strangers. Originally, there was a Chang Sanye, but some time ago, he was seriously injured, but a group of righteous brothers were killed and injured, which can be described as heavy damage, and now he doesn't know where to hide and didn't show up.
Including Chang Sanye, the four of them are all the best under heaven and man, but because they are old, they are not on the Ruyi list. However, it should not be underestimated, these people specialize in the business of fishing for deviations in the rivers and lakes, and like Qi Xuansu, they are all made by swords and swords and bloody rain, and they have rich experience in dealing with people, and they are by no means comparable to young people like Wan Xiuwu who have just entered the stage of returning to the truth.
And because they were from the wrong side, they inevitably violated the royal law, and they also had some unclear contacts with various secret associations, so they were wanted by both the Daomen and the imperial court, so that they would not stay in a certain place for a long time, but constantly wander back and forth between the states.
Generally speaking, these people can be regarded as Jiangyang thieves in a broad sense, characters in the rivers and lakes and green forests, which are different from the white roads of rivers and lakes such as dart games.
However, they are different from Qi Xuansu, Bodhisattva Man and others, although they have a close relationship with the "inn", they are not official members of the "inn", at most they are supernumerary personnel, and Qi Xuansu is unwilling to admit it, he is a formal member of a secret association, and there is an organization, but Qi Xuansu's heart is just to get rid of this organization.
"Don't wait for the flower monk first." The thunderbolt Taoist priest spoke, "The surname is Song, didn't you send someone to keep an eye on it, how are you staring?" ”
Scholar Song Luodi looked at Zhou Cripple and Xu Changwu: "Brother Zhou, Brother Xu." ”
Zhou Cripple stood up and said: "Some friends already know, some friends don't know, then I'll say it again, this big Bodhisattva has a habit, go to the Taiping Inn every day to eat and drink, Brother Xu and I were supposed to squat and keep an eye on it according to the convention, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain today, the helper that the big Bodhisattva found arrived, and the two drank together, we wanted to test one or two, and the result was ......"
"The result?" The Thunderbolt mage asked.
Zhou lame smiled bitterly, and stretched out his hand to point at Xu Changwu, who was languishing next to him: "It's still a trivial matter to pay a hundred Taiping dollars to the Taiping Inn, the key is that Brother Xu hasn't gone through three moves under the hands of others." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
After chatting before, they had already learned from Zhou Cripple's mouth that the great Bodhisattva had found a helper, which was very tricky. Because Zhou Cripple also knows some techniques of watching people's qi, and even knows that the young man is murderous. But I don't know much about what happened to me, and I never thought it would be so tricky.
Although Xu Changwu is a former dynasty clan, he has some real skills, and he is considered to be the number one person among the various local snakes in Longmen Mansion, and many people here may not be as good as him, but Xu Changwu has not gone through three moves under the hands of others. If you go up by yourself, most of them will be sent away by three moves and two styles.
After all, this is not a face-showing thing, and looking at Xu Changwu's appearance is not like an exaggeration.
Song Luodi groaned: "It's a tricky character, and I have to let a few more brothers step on the plate and find out his details." ”
The Thunderbolt Mage was unimpressed: "Good tigers are afraid of wolves, we have more people and fewer people, where do we need such trouble?" Everyone is side by side, that kid still has three heads and six arms? ”
Song Luodi did not refute.
Master Thunderbolt is right, this is not a competition of martial arts, how can there be so much attention, more to win with more.
However, in this way, a lot of lives will have to be taken.
It's not that the Thunderbolt Mage didn't think of this, but he did it on purpose, after all, one more death would be one less penny.
Sure enough, the Thunderbolt Mage changed his words: "Hewu, none of the people sitting here today are new springboards, so I'll just say it." This time the online climb is not a small number, at least there is this number. ”
The Thunderbolt Mage held out two fingers.
"Two thousand peace money?" There is humanity.
"Look at your little interest, two thousand Taiping dollars for such a big battle?" The Thunderbolt Mage sneered, "Two thousand worry-free money!" ”
There was a gasp in the restaurant.
Two thousand worry-free money is also twenty thousand peace money.
Even if a few leaders take the lion's share, and the others share the profits, it will be hundreds of Taiping dollars, which is enough for half a year to live happily.
Master Thunderbolt looked at Song Luodi and said, "How should the profit be divided between the 20,000 Taiping money, you might as well make it clear first, it's best to come up with a charter, this is the right thing." ”
Everyone's eyes fell on Song Luodi.
Song Luodi's mind turned a few times.
Chang Sanye's deal is just that. How can a little girl, He De, be compared with the beloved disciple of Cihang Zhenren? actually asked the employer behind the scenes to offer a high price of 20,000 Taiping dollars? Naturally, there is something hidden in this.
……
Qi Xuansu sent the Bodhisattva out of the Taiping Inn, and the two agreed to meet tomorrow to formally talk about the human dart.
It's just that this one sent out half a street.
It's not that the two big men are slimy, but that both of them are a little drunk. After all, it's not a drinking party, so naturally there is no reason to resist with true qi, spend money to drink, and then use true qi to resist the power of alcohol, isn't this a superfluous move, it's good not to drink at all. So the two of them inevitably talked a lot at this time, and even a little unfinished.
After saying goodbye, Qi Xuansu walked to the inn alone.
"Hey, no wonder Zhang Qingxiao likes to drink, after this drunkenness, there is a different taste, the sky is not the sky, this earth is not the earth, this person ...... It's not a human ......" Qi Xuansu staggered, and they all said that wine is strong and intimidating, Qi Xuansu was already very brave, and after drinking again, at this time it effectively imitated the impulse of ancient madmen to sing.
At this moment, a tall figure walked towards Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu stopped and shouted, "Who is coming?" Get your name in! ”
The tall figure stopped suddenly, as if taken aback by Qi Xuansu's voice, and after a long while, he recited the Buddha's name: "Buddha of Amitayus." ”
Qi Xuansu said with a smile: "Infinite light, immeasurable longevity, you are the leader of the Western Heaven Sect, and you are a disciple of Buddhism." ”
Daomen is respected by the ancestor of the Taishang Dao, and the surname of the Taishang vulgar family is Li, and he is called Li Laozu. Taishang Dao Ancestor gasifies the three Qings, which are Taishang Daode Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, collectively known as the Sanqing Patriarch, Taishang is Sanqing, and Sanqing is Taishang.
The Taishang Dao Ancestor lived in the thirty-three days, which was the place where the disciples of the Dao Sect went after ascending. Over the years, the Li family has often preached that they are not only the descendants of the Xuansheng, but also the descendants of the Taishang, one is the ancestor of Zhongxing, the other is the ancestor of the creation, and the Li family is the true orthodox descendant of the Taoist sect, just like the Confucian Yanshenggong.
The Buddha is also roughly the same, and the Buddha is also called Shakyamuni, and the Buddha is also called Shakti, just as the Daomen is also called Xuanmen. The World-Honored Buddha has the Dharmakaya, the Retribution Body, the Avatar of Response, and the "Anger Avatar" of anger, so the Buddha is the Buddha, the Buddha is the Buddha, and the immeasurable light is also the Buddha. In the world of Buddha, the world-honored one is the Buddha, and in the Western Heavenly Buddha Kingdom, the world-honored one is the immeasurable light.
Therefore, the Taoist is called "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable", and the monk is called "Amitayus Buddha".
The tall figure slowly walked out of the darkness, and turned out to be a fat monk, wearing a big red robe, with a solemn appearance, his palms folded, and he said: "The immeasurable light shines on the ten worlds, the ten worlds are bright, the ten worlds are in my light, and there is no one in the ten worlds who is not me." ”
