Chapter 135: Western Regions Daofu

The Western Regions Daofu is a very special Daofu, according to reason, there should be a big real person in charge of the mansion here, but because the Western Regions Daofu is too close to Yujing, there is really a big deal, Yujing can just send someone directly, so in the end there is no real person in charge of the mansion.

If Wu Niang is among the immortals, if she wants to arrange a position, she can be the head of the Western Regions Daofu, and it is not a waste.

Because the Western Regions Daofu is an eventful place. To the east, there was the sphere of influence of the Golden Horde and the Rakshasa State. To the west, it is the sphere of influence of Buddhism in the Western Regions.

The war in the Western Regions in the past few years was ostensibly due to the shamanism's intention to recapture the Great Snow Mountain.

Daxue Mountain was originally a holy place of shamanism, and it was one of the four palaces of the Golden Horde, but in the eleventh year of Daxuan Taiping, it was conquered by the imperial court and the Daomen, and the Daxue Mountain Palace became the Taoist palace of the Western Regions.

In fact, the reason is not so simple, shamanism alone cannot compete with the Daomen, behind the shamanism is the support of the holy court of the Rakshasa country and the Buddhism of the Western Regions. The two Western religions reached a consensus, and even reached an alliance to a certain extent.

This is also the Holy See's counterattack against the Daomen, the Daomen united the local forces in the East Po Continent and the Southern Continent to spoil the good things of the Holy See, and the Holy See joined hands with the Buddhist Sect to repeatedly make trouble in the South Seas and the Western Regions.

As a result, not only were the land trade routes nearly cut off, but there were also constant conflicts of all sizes, and the area became a military powerhouse.

However, there is still a tacit understanding between the Taoist Gate and the Buddhist Gate, and the two sides will not clash directly, at least not in large-scale armed conflicts. On the surface, the other two of the three religions are still united around the Daomen.

It's not that Daomen is afraid of Buddhism, but because of what has already been said, Daomen feels that it is not worth it.

The Buddhist Gate of the Western Regions was driven to the Gobi Desert, which was very barren and had nothing to ask for. The Daomen and the Buddha Gate went to war, and it was natural to win the war, and nothing could be gained. If you lose, the problem will be big, if you compare Yujing to the imperial capital of the Great Wei period, Kunlun Daofu is Zhili, then the Western Regions Daofu is the nine towns and three passes, every time the Golden Horde army goes south and breaks through the defense line of the nine towns, it can be under the imperial capital, even if the Western Regions Buddhism is helpless to Yujing, the Daomen will be shaken.

Nowadays, the main energy of the Daomen is still in the east and south, mainly to operate overseas, as long as there is no accident in the Western Regions.

However, peace cannot be sought through compromise, and peace can only be obtained through struggle. Although the state should not be anthropomorphized, it is the same as human nature in this matter. It's like someone bullies you, you back down, and next time you bully harder, but if you fight back strongly and beat them up, they won't provoke you.

Under these circumstances, Daomen decided to launch a war in the Western Regions, and it was necessary to concentrate on it, play with momentum, and play with majesty.

Because it was the sphere of influence of the Quanzhen Dao, it was led by Donghua Zhenren himself, and finally defeated the shamanism and forced the Golden Horde to move three times.

At that time, Qi Xuansu was still fooling around the rivers and lakes, and he basically didn't feel anything. When he joined Tiangangtang, he only caught up with one tail.

After this battle, there was no major war in the Western Regions, but there were still various small frictions. With the support of the Holy Court, the Buddhist Sect of the Western Regions constantly provoked the Daomen, but they did not dare to really fight, and the two sides often developed into a situation of small-scale action or secretly coming and going.

The Buddhism Gate of the Western Regions also sees it very accurately, the Daomen and the Holy Court contain each other, no one dares to move lightly, the Daomen does not want to fight it with all its might, and the Holy Court is constantly fighting for it, so it can sway left and right, and the Western Regions Buddhism has always wanted to take back the Western Regions, so that the Daomen Yujing has become a situation where the Daomen Yujing has become a big master of the country, so all kinds of small actions are constant.

If the Dijing Daofu is idle all day long, then the Western Regions Daofu is another extreme, with big and small things constantly, not only to prevent Buddhism in the Western Regions, but also to guard against the Holy Court and shamanism, as well as secret associations are also very rampant, and they also need to be cleaned up.

Yao Pei was transferred to the Western Regions Provincial Mansion as the chief, and it was relatively easy to produce results.

As the chief of the Daofu in the Western Regions, there is basically no need to think about economic matters, unless the land trade route can be reopened, it cannot be compared with Nanyang at all, and the Daomen will not send any financial and tax tasks here, but will also need other Daofu to help here, and even Yujing will allocate funds.

In this case, Yao Pei was the chief deputy lord of the Western Regions Provincial Mansion, which was completely different from Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu being the chief deputy lord of the Borneo Provincial Mansion.

What is Qi Xuansu concerned about? Putting aside Chen Shuhua and Wang Jiaohe, the main ones are typhoon disaster, foreign trade, Nanyang United Trading Company, and Lion City.

What is Zhang Yuelu concerned about? Although there are many secret associations, with the normalization of secret associations, it is nothing, Zhang Yuelu mainly focuses on the old Taoist priests, these gentry of the Taoist era formed an alliance of interests, and fought with Zhang Yuelu happily, basically to redistribute interests.

What is Yao Pei concerned about? It is the Knowing Destiny Sect, the Lingshan Witch Sect, the Western Regions Buddhism Sect, the Shamanic Sect, the Goddess Society, etc., this is the external force, and the others are internal contradictions, this is the dispute between the enemy and me. The situation is complicated, and we cannot blindly suppress or compromise blindly.

The provocative behavior of Buddhism in the Western Regions is essentially encroachment. Build a temple today, open an altar and preach tomorrow. The Daomen side will send people to expel them, and the people of the Buddhist Gate will definitely not do it, and the two sides will have to start fighting, and they are more restrained, and they can't be directly covered by artillery, covered by flying boats, or set up a large array of Fangshi camps to dispatch, all relying on personal cultivation, or even one-on-one heads-up.

After Yao Pei came to the Western Regions Daofu, he dealt with a lot of such things, which were almost commonplace.

Under normal circumstances, Yao Pei just gave an order and did not have to come forward in person, but today is an exception. This time it was also more restrained at first, but gradually it became angry, and the two sides continued to seek support, so the scale became larger and larger, and some of them lost control. Yao Pei had to come forward in person.

When Yao Pei arrived at the site of the conflict between the two sides, he saw that the two camps were facing each other in the Gobi, and there was an unfinished and simple temple not far away.

A Buddhist monk stood in front of the formation, with a precious light flowing on his face, dressed in a bright red monk's robe, exposing one arm, and his skin was glowing with a faint golden light, like a golden Buddha statue in a Buddhist temple.

In addition to the Shinto golden body of the immortal road, the Buddhist monks also have a golden body, and the two have some similarities, but they are not exactly the same. When the golden body of Buddhism is completed, it is like a mountain and the earth, it cannot be shaken, it cannot be retreated, and after cultivating to the extreme, it is not inferior to the immortal physique.

This monk is a cultivator of the golden body, like a majestic mountain, looking down on all living beings below the mountain at the top of the towering place.

The monk's chest hangs a bone rosary as big as a fist, and if you look closely, in fact, each rosary is made of a human skull by a secret method, and the skull is filled with gemstones, agate and other Buddhist treasures, making each rosary shine.

This is the unique human bone rosary of Buddhism in the Western Regions, the monk sits down and passes away to carry out the heavenly burial, and the corpse is fed to the eagle, so as to achieve the merciful realm of the Buddha cutting the strand to feed the eagle, and the remaining bones are used to practice utensils. Each of its bone beads is taken from the skull of a high monk. Therefore, there are a total of twenty-one rosaries in the pair of prayer beads of the monk in front of him, and it takes twenty-one heavenly monks to practice after they pass away, which shows that it is rare.

The way of cultivation and inheritance of Buddhism in the Western Regions has always been very different from that of Buddhism in the Central Plains, and even the Taoism after the confluence of Buddhism and Taoism is difficult to include all kinds of Buddhism in the Western Regions.

Although Buddhism in the Western Regions is from the lineage of Buddhism, it is transmitted to the Western Regions of the grassland and then integrated with shamanism, and shamanism is a branch of the ancient witch religion, so after all kinds of changes, Buddhism in the Western Regions has developed a unique means of empowerment, to put it bluntly, it is to cultivate itself to the next generation of disciples, the master to the apprentice, the apprentice to the apprentice, the generation to generation, so that the Western Regions Buddhism in the decline of the Buddhism can still stand, and even after the birth of the Buddha, the Western Regions Buddhism has become the main force to resist the Daomen.

The person in front of him, in Yao Pei's perception, although he has the cultivation of the stage of heavenly manipulation, but he shows a free appearance, not as harmonious as the real creation of heaven and man, without leaks and defects, but by relying on external forces to reach the current realm, I think this is the so-called inheritance of the work.

This kind of cultivation method places all one's cultivation in the color body, which is contrary to the principle that the Central Plains Buddhism regards the body as a stinky skin and pursues transcendence of color and emptiness.

What is a color body? It has five facial features such as nose, eyes, mouth, and limbs of two hands and feet, a round skull and a square top, and a physical and qualitative human body, which is called the color body, that is, the body of the martial arts immortals.

It is precisely because the Buddhism of the Western Regions pays too much attention to the color and body that it was regarded as a deviant by the Central Plains Buddhism back then, and even a side door. However, now the Central Plains Buddhism has declined, but the Western Regions Buddhism has become orthodox.

The Central Plains Buddhism regards the seven holes as holes, the limbs as wooden joints, the skin and flesh as pus, and the five organs as ruffians. It is necessary to give up this color body outside the degree, and find a true body with an invisible form and an imageless image.

If you are delirious and unconscious, take this color as the truth, recognize the false as the true, and take the false as the truth. There are six doors outside, six senses inside, internal and external attacks, and the true element is lost.

All things in heaven and earth, all visible things are bad, if you love this color body is false, and not the truth of life, when the limit comes, who I am and who I am, and my body has nothing to do with me.

In other words, if you can't seek immortality, your body is a stinky skin, and it is a piece of clothing that can be thrown away, so the Central Plains Buddhism despises the body and calls it a color body.

The immortals and ghosts of the Daomen also despise the physique and abandon the physique, the former casting the golden body of the Shinto with the power of incense and wishing, and the latter going out of the body with the thought of the soul, as if taking off the clothes on the body. Even if it is an earth immortal and a heavenly immortal, they must be reborn and get rid of the mortal body, which is equivalent to changing a piece of clothing.

Only the immortals of the Daomen do not "take off their clothes" or "change their clothes" along the way, but break through the boundaries of immortals with their physique, use their physique as a boat, cross the sea of suffering, arrive at the other side, and achieve immortality.

From this point of view, the Buddhism of the Western Regions cannot be wrong.

After Yao Pei appeared, the monk first pronounced a Buddha name, and then said in the official dialect of the Central Plains, which was not very proficient: "I didn't expect it to be Yao Zhenren in person." ”

The monk's voice is like a flood bell Da Lu, deafening, and the rolling sound is like substance.

This is the "lion's roar" of Buddhism, after cultivating to the extreme, it can not only shock the mind, but even hurt people's souls with just the power of a roar, the soul is unstable, sanity, and become a madman and fool, and the soul is directly scattered, leaving only a walking corpse, which is quite similar to the blood roar of human immortals.

However, Yao Pei was not affected at all, he didn't even have much expression on his face, he was lifeless, and only said four words: "What do you want?" ”
