Chen Jianqiu saw Chen Jianqiu again with great trepidation.

This uneasy mood is not all because of that love, but also because of the worry about his future.

The place where the two met was a bookstore owned by a Westerner, which was very clean and would not attract attention. One is that all the books sold here are Western, and the other is that the owner is a Western lady, so if you don't know Western, it's hard to communicate here.

Chen Jianqiu herself has Western blood, and naturally she can speak Western, which is where she often comes.

It is a small three-story building with a hall on the first floor, filled with various bookshelves and displaying books. The second floor is a private room where you can read a book or talk about things. The third floor is where the owner lives, and the guests stop.

Chen Jianqiu was waiting for Chen Jianqiu in the small living room on the third floor.

Chen Jianqiu is actually a very talented person, he is proficient in five languages, in addition to the Central Plains Mandarin and Borneo Tu, there are also Lune, Ibia, and Posazhou Tu.

Therefore, Chen Jianqiu has no problem communicating with this beautiful female shopkeeper who is over fifty years old, and both of them can skillfully control the Lune language. At this point, Qi Xuansu is far inferior. However, Qi Xuansu doesn't care, language has huge power, and if you are familiar with a language, you will gain corresponding power, such as spells, charms, formulas, and so on. However, language is also the intuitive embodiment of civilization, containing this civilized way of thinking, the more you understand a language, the more you will be affected by it, and there are advantages and disadvantages.

Daomen advocates Western learning, believing that Daomen disciples should have an in-depth understanding of all aspects of the West, choose those who are good and follow them, and change those who are not good, but do not advocate learning Spanish, or do not advocate learning Spanish too early.

In fact, in the Vientiane Taoist Palace, there is no Spanish course, until after becoming a high-grade Taoist priest, that is, the Taoist believes that his ideas and concepts have matured, he will learn Western languages for foreign exchanges, and he does not force it, but only uses it as a tool.

Chen Jianqiu also suffered from this point, he learned too much and thought too much, and when others didn't know that Xu Jiaorong was his stepmother, he was naturally not liked by the examiners of the Daomen.

Chen Jianqiu climbed all the way to the third floor, and suddenly realized that the reason why Chen Jianqiu chose this place must be because there is a back door, which can directly lead to the bookstore owner's room, which should be the kind of staircase built directly outside the house.

The furnishings on the third floor are a combination of Chinese and Western, with screens, furnishings, and carved railings all in the Central Plains style, but the furniture is in Western style. Chen Jianqiu was sitting on the sofa and prepared black tea in advance.

Chen Jianqiu took a deep breath, calmed down, could smell the faint fragrance, refreshing people's hearts, and sat opposite Chen Jianqiu.

The two looked at each other, although they were slightly embarrassed, but for Chen Jianqiu, they were more happy.

This kind of solitude is very rare.

The more lonely people are, the more they crave affection, Chen Jianqiu's parents died early, although he has a stepmother, but he can't see each other a few times throughout the year, so Chen Jianqiu is still eager to meet a beautiful and gentle person in his heart.

[In view of the general environment,

Facing Chen Jianqiu's gaze, Chen Jianqiu seemed a little unbearable, and took the initiative to ask, "Brother Qiu, has there been any progress recently?"

Chen Jianqiu came back to his senses and repeated his speculation: "Although in the past, it was Wu Luo's believers who took the initiative to enter Wu Luo's divine kingdom in their dreams, but I think those pills may play a supporting role, making people passively enter Wu Luo's divine kingdom in their dreams."

Chen Jianqiu said thoughtfully: "Hearing you say this, there is indeed some truth, when my father first saw the Blood Bodhisattva, it was still far away, and since then it has become closer and closer. It means that the more the father takes the pill, the deeper the dream becomes, and the closer he is to the kingdom of God of Wuluo. When he truly arrives in front of the Blood Bodhisattva, he may have completely entered the Divine Kingdom of Wuluo."

Chen Jianqiu took out the medical records of the Huasheng Hall: "The medical records of the Huasheng Hall have clearly stated that it is not appropriate for the lord of the country to continue to take any pills. But Chief Chen still asked the country lord to continue to take the pill, I'm afraid there is something strange about this."

Chen Jianqiu said softly, "You mean, Chief Chen has something to do with the Lingshan Witch Sect?"

"I didn't say that." Chen Jianqiu hurriedly denied it, "Everything is just speculation, and there is no conclusive evidence yet."

Chen Jianqiu smiled: "It's just the two of us here, you don't have to be afraid."

Chen Jianqiu asked, "Is there anything related to the Lingshan Witch Sect in the palace?"

Chen Jianqiu carefully recalled for a moment and said, "There are naturally no things about the Lingshan Witch Sect. Even if there is, it cannot be put on the surface, and it must be very hidden. After all, Thang Long Mansion is under the nose of Sheji Palace, not comparable to those remote places where the emperor is far away. Others don't know, but I know that the Borneo Provincial Mansion has ears and eyes in the palace, and whoever dares to believe in the Lingshan Witch Sect in the palace is afraid that they will soon be taken away by the people of the Taoist Mansion."

She paused slightly, and then changed her words: "But since the death of the queen mother, my father has begun to believe in Buddhism, often reading Buddhist scriptures, and even inviting Buddhist monks to come to the palace to explain the law."

Chen Jianqiu frowned slightly, more surprised.

It is true that Buddhism in Borneo is prosperous, so the Daomen does not restrict the beliefs of ordinary people, and they can stay at will, but the lord of a country must believe in the Daomen, if he does not believe, the Daomen will not force it, but he cannot obtain the approval of the Daomen, and the position of the lord of the country is naturally unstable.

The lord of Dayu dared to summon Buddhist monks into the court, wasn't he afraid of provoking the wrath of the Daomen?

Immediately afterwards, Chen Jianqiu suddenly realized that the lord of the Dayu Kingdom was sick, and except for Chief Chen on the Daomen side, the other high-level Daofu officials ignored it, including the stepmother. This is actually an attitude, don't you believe in Buddhism? Let Buddhism cure you.

The lord of Fenglin Continent dares to call himself the emperor, concurrently serves as the head of the Tianmen sect, and even dares to break his wrist with the Daomen, because the royal family has two immortal immortals in charge, as well as the three main gods on the head, and they are full of confidence, but these small countries of Borneo do not have this kind of confidence, they can only let the Daomen handle it, how can they be compared with the lord of Fenglin Continent?

Besides, what is the ending of the Lord of Fenglin Continent? It wasn't that he was knocked on the door by the Daomen, so he had to sign an alliance under the city, and he was stripped of the title of emperor and demoted to the first level of king.

Believing in Buddhism under the nose of the Taoist gate, isn't this the way to get trouble?

Chen Jianqiu also saw what Chen Jianqiu was thinking, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I persuaded my father, but my father didn't listen, and the reason why my father believes in Buddhism is also related to his dead mother, so I really can't persuade him much."

Chen Jianqiu had heard the story of the lord and the queen.

The queen was originally a Western naturalist, traveled to Borneo by boat, and accidentally met the lord of Dayu, who had lost his wife for many years and traveled in micro-clothes. The two broke through many obstacles, and the lord of Dayu made this Western woman the queen and gave birth to a daughter Chen Jianqiu.

Under the pattern of confrontation between the East and the West, Daomen really does not want to see a Western woman who can affect the situation in Borneo, but the lord of Dayu has made up his mind, and Dayu is the most powerful country in Borneo, looking at the entire Eastern world, second only to the Daxuan Court, the Golden Horde Court, and the Fenglinzhou Court, and the Daomen finally had to be recognized.

Chen Jianqiu believes that the feelings of the lord of Dayu for the queen are true, after all, Dayu has always regarded itself as a small Central Plains, and when the Golden Horde entered the Central Plains, it was regarded as Shenzhou Lu Shen, and Dayu Kingdom also competed with Fenglinzhou Weiyuan Kingdom for the name of orthodoxy in the Central Plains. In this atmosphere, the lord of Dayu married a Western woman, which was really a big rebellion, not only did the Taoist sect disagree, but the hundred officials of the clan would not agree, he still insisted on it, naturally because of his sincere feelings. From the love of the lord of Dayu for his daughter Chen Jianqiu, it can also be seen that one or two can be said to love the house and Wu.

Chen Jianqiu continued: "After the death of the queen mother, my father became ill with thoughts, Brother Qiu, you should know that the Taoist Gate is about immortality, and it has always emphasized that people cannot be resurrected after death, and they value themselves in this life, and they have nothing to ask for in the next life, so it is difficult for the father to find solace in the Daomen. And Buddhism talks about the afterlife, the cycle of life and death, so it is inevitable for my father to convert to Buddhism."

Chen Jianqiu naturally recognized this. He is familiar with the classics of the three religions, and knows that among the three religions, only Buddhism will give people spiritual comfort, to put it bluntly

Drawing a big pie, there is no hope in this life, you can only look forward to the next life. The other two were too secular, one lived in a temple and educated the world, and the other focused on rebellion and was in power twice.

Chen Jianqiu continued: "My father fell into an inextricable confusion because of the death of his mother, and his heart was extremely frustrated. Brother Qiu, you have read the five thousand words of Dao Ancestor, but there is one word that can alleviate such confusion?"

Chen Jianqiu shook his head.

"So my father began to read the Buddhist scriptures at this time, read more Buddhist scriptures, and moved the idea of listening to the monks' teachings, and under the temptation of the eunuchs beside him, he got acquainted with many monks, and finally fell deeper and deeper, causing the displeasure of the Taoists. If it weren't for the fact that my father had reigned for many years, he would have been deeply rooted, and he had never crossed the line, and he still believed in Taoism on the surface, but secretly believed in Buddhism, and he was afraid that he would be deposed as the lord of the country by Taoism."

Chen Jianqiu sighed: "However, the eunuchs beside my father who lured him to the Buddha Gate have all died violently in recent years, and they all died unexpectedly, which should be a warning given by the Daomen. Now that his father is seriously ill, the Daomen are naturally happy to see it, and they can't wait for his father to die early, so they can set up a new king, even if Chief Chen kills his father, the high-level officials of the Daomen will at most reprimand him on face, and they won't really treat Chief Chen as well, maybe they will praise her for doing a good job behind her back."

Chen Jianqiu was surprised, he never thought that there was such an inside story here.

Chief Chen was at odds with the lord of the country, the lord of the country secretly converted to Buddhism and angered the Daomen, Chief Chen was suspected of having some kind of connection with the Lingshan Witch Sect, and Qi Cixi had a contradiction with Chief Chen, intending to attack Chief Chen.

The accumulation of these piles made Chen Jianqiu fall into the fog, and he couldn't see the truth more and more.
