Chapter 88 is complicated
Lishan.
This is the dojo of the old mother of Lishan, this Lishan is neither steep nor majestic, only the scenery is still beautiful, and there is nothing strange about it.
However, although Lishan is ordinary, because it is the dojo of the old mother of Lishan, there are many immortals who come and go here, and there are legends of mortals meeting immortals from time to time.
Over time, this Lishan Mountain has become a very famous place.
Many literati and scholars, or people who like to play around, come here to see the legendary immortals and try to see if they have a fairy fate.
Some of these people are deeply blessed, and they have indeed seen the fairy gods, and some have even entered the eyes of the old mother of Lishan, guiding them to embark on the fairy road.
At this time, in Lishan, the old mother of Lishan summoned many important figures in the sect, such as Doumu Yuanjun, Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, etc.
"Do you think the church will agree to this?"
Lishan's mother asked.
As for whether the exposition will promise them to destroy the god list together, she really has no bottom in her heart.
Because it stands to reason that the current situation is the most favorable for the exposition of the teachings, and if the list of gods is ruined, the strength of the sect will inevitably increase greatly, which is not a good thing for the exposition.
Doumu Yuanjun's face was calm, and he said at this time: "If I were a person who explained the teaching, I probably wouldn't have agreed, and I finally overwhelmed the sect, how could I easily let it turn over now?" ”
Standing behind Doumu Yuanjun, the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Thunder Puhua Tianzun, that is, the former Shang Dynasty Taishi Wen Zhong also spoke: "In my opinion, the actions before the exposition of the sect revealed strange things everywhere, and it stands to reason that they should not help us rescue Uncle Yunxiao." ”
"But they just did it, and they were very conscientious, which is really confusing, and I guess the sect most likely wanted to ease relations with us before the sect."
"And although the conditions proposed now are beneficial to us and not a good thing for them, if there are other external forces to push it, it is still possible to succeed in this matter."
Wen Zhong was originally the apprentice of the Holy Mother of Jin Ling, that is, the apprentice of the current Doumu Yuanjun, plus he was a very human minister in the world, and he had experienced a lot of things, so what he said, even Doumu Yuanjun, who was a master, would pay attention to it.
Regarding Wen Zhong's words, the three sisters Zhao Gongming and Yunxiao all nodded in agreement.
They also felt the kindness that Sun Jue released to them, and if it was said that the exposition was to ease the relationship, it would be true.
Sun Jue did reveal relevant thoughts before.
Yunxiao asked, "Senior Nephew Wen Zhong, what do you mean by external force?" ”
Wen Zhong explained: "This catastrophe is not over yet, although I don't know why it started and why it will end, but at least it is certain that there is still a big crisis. ”
"Nowadays, the teachings are very prosperous, and when the catastrophe comes, it will not be the first to bear the brunt, but it will also be an important target, so as long as the teachings feel a great threat, they will naturally think of seeking foreign help."
"Coupled with the fact that they suddenly made a move on the Demon Master Palace before the teaching, I think they may already know something, so they will do this."
Listening to Wen Zhong's analysis, everyone thought about it.
Although Wen Zhong is a disciple of three generations of expounding the teaching, he has three eyes in the first child, a magical eye in the middle, a few inches of white light, can distinguish the treacherous and loyal liver, and the heart of the people is black and white.
Coupled with the identity of Doumu Yuanjun's disciple, his actual status in the sect is no less than that of Zhao Gongming and other second-generation disciples.
After all, although Zhao Gongming and the others are very talented and their cultivation is not bad, they are not the personal disciples of the Tongtian Sect Master after all.
As one of the four major disciples, the disciple of Doumu Yuanjun is naturally different from the ordinary three generations of disciples.
"Then we can only wait?"
Qiong Xiaoliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, she didn't want to wait passively, but now it seems that there is no other good way.
Wen Zhong bowed slightly: "Now that the situation is unclear, the best way is to wait, wait until the clues are revealed, and then we can decide what to do." ”
In fact, this is all because of the lack of strength of the sect today, otherwise there is no need to expect the former "enemy" to help them.
They all knew this in their hearts, so everyone acquiesced to it.
Doumu Yuanjun sighed: "According to my disciple, we can only wait now, waiting for the time to come, as for what will happen at that time, we still need to grasp it ourselves, and the opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared." ”
Everyone agreed, and the meeting was also temporarily agreed.
Just as the Sect Interception Immortals were about to leave, an unexpected visitor made everyone stop again.
"I've seen all of you."
Guanyin Bodhisattva is holding a jade bottle, his expression is solemn, if it is not for a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, it looks like a statue of the general standard.
Lishan's mother wrinkled her brows, she and Guanyin are also old acquaintances.
When she was traveling to the west, when the four saints tried their Zen mind, she and Guanyin Bodhisattva, Puxian Bodhisattva, and Manjushri Bodhisattva turned into a mortal trio to learn scriptures.
It's just that at this juncture, Guanyin Bodhisattva suddenly came to the door, no matter how you look at it, it's a little unusual.
"Guanyin, why did you come here all of a sudden?"
Lishan's mother asked directly.
The two have known each other for a long time and have a good personal relationship, so naturally they don't need to be too polite at this time.
The other sectarians also looked at Guanyin, wanting to see what this Buddhism was up to.
Guanyin, as one of the most valued henchmen of Rulai, often represents Rulai.
Guanyin Bodhisattva did not hide it: "You should already know about the matter of the Demon Master Palace before, and the poor monk will not repeat it too much. ”
"Now that the exposition of the religion is powerful, one door and four quasi-saints, this is almost an unprecedented thing, and the grievances between the Taoist friends and the exposition of the teachings do not need to be repeated by the poor monks, right?"
"Therefore, my Buddhism wants to help each other with all the Taoist friends of the sect and fight against strong enemies together."
Hearing these words, everyone in the sect looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little strange for a while.
Guanyin Bodhisattva was keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere, and she asked with an unchanged face: "Is there anything wrong with the poor monk's words?" ”
Lishan's mother glanced at the other people, and then said: "There is nothing wrong with it, but the teaching is extremely peaceful now, and there is no need to regard it as a threat, the biggest threat now is the enemy hiding in the shadows." ”
Hearing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva's heart couldn't help but sink.
The exposition of the sect has destroyed the Demon Master Palace, is this still called Anfen?
And even said that there is no threat to the teachings, and if there is no threat to the teachings, then who else is a threat?
In Guanyin's view, it is estimated that there is some agreement between the interception of the religion and the exposition of the teaching.
In this way, if Buddhism wants to unite with the sect, I am afraid that it will be in vain.
"Lishan Daoyou, has the sect been separated from the exposition of the sect?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva was very curious, the two sides were obviously still in a posture of not getting along with each other before, why did they suddenly stick together again?
Lishan's mother shook her head: "No, although a long time has passed since the matter of sealing the gods, it is still imprinted in the hearts of every sect member. ”
"I can tell you very clearly, if Buddhism wants to unite with us, it will be easy, as long as you find a way to get the list of gods in your hands and destroy it, then it is inevitable that we will cooperate with you."
"For kindness, we will definitely repay it, and it will be doubled, you should know this very well."
Guanyin carefully observed the expressions of the people in the sect, and wanted to judge how much of Lishan's old mother's words were true and how false.
It's just that who is there hasn't been through a lot of things?
Even if it is Qiongxiao, although she is more impulsive, it does not mean that she has no city government at all.
I couldn't see anything left and right, Guanyin Bodhisattva followed the words of the old mother of Lishan and said: "The list of gods involves a lot, and it has a lot to do with it, I can't be the master of this matter, and when I go back, I will report to the Buddha." ”
Previously, Buddhism was also allied with Heavenly Court, and now the situation between the two sides is a little weird, but theoretically they are still on the same front.
Moreover, the freedom of those who intercept the religion is not necessarily a good thing for Buddhism.
Interception and exposition originally came from the same source, and the attitudes of the two sides at the moment were somewhat ambiguous.
Even if Buddhism really helps the sect to destroy the god list, the other party will firmly deal with the teachings?
This thing is really not necessarily, and if the interception and exposition of the teachings do not deal with each other, the relationship with Buddhism is very good?
Nowadays, there are still many sectarians in Buddhism, and the treatment is generally very poor, basically all of them are mounts.
It is impossible to say that the people who intercept the religion do not care at all.
The words that Lishan's mother said were originally a temptation, so there was no surprise at Guanyin's answer.
"If you think it's the use of moving him out, then you're very wrong, and now the decline of the sect has a lot to do with him."
"Besides, he's not a treasure anymore, and he thinks the same way himself, since that's the case, let's let the past pass."
Doumu Yuanjun's sudden words made everyone stunned.
Especially Guanyin Bodhisattva, she did have such thoughts before she came, but she didn't expect that just after mentioning it, Doumu Yuanjun would react so much.
"What Doumu said is that the poor monk will convey this to the Buddha."
Guanyin Bodhisattva didn't refute, and people didn't say anything about her, so she naturally wouldn't say anything.
Doumu Yuanjun nodded, and didn't say anything more, just closed his eyes and rested.
Those who noticed her demeanor were extremely complicated in their hearts.
After the catastrophe of the gods, it was the time when the sect was the weakest, and at this time, the Duobao Taoist agreed to the words of the Taiqing sage and became the master of Mahayana Buddhism, working hard for his own avenue.
It's just that in this way, the weak sect at that time could naturally only be maintained by Lishan's mother and others.
None of the sect members who have experienced these things say they don't care.
His own senior brother has become the leader of the rival, and no one can easily let go.
It's just that no matter what, the matter has already passed, as long as the other party doesn't make a fuss about this.
The two sides exchanged for another moment, and then Guanyin left.
After Guanyin Bodhisattva left, Qiong Xiao finally couldn't help it.
"What does this mean? Want to join us? Are they crazy? Nowadays, Buddhism is expanding rapidly, and its strength is becoming more and more huge, although it is inferior to the exposition of the teachings in terms of high-level combat power, but in the middle and lower levels, it is already far more than the exposition. ”
"Not to mention anything else, the number of people alone exceeds the exposition I don't know how many times, and now they actually say that the threat of exposition is even greater?"
In the face of Qiongxiao's complaints, a smile also appeared on Yunxiao's cold face: "Second sister, the people of Buddhism naturally want to defend their own family, they are now worried that we will reconcile with the teachings, and in this way, the strength of the Xuanmen will increase greatly." ”
"Whether it is in terms of quality or quantity, it is only stronger than Buddhism, not weak, so they are naturally anxious."
As for the plans of Buddhism, everyone in the sect saw it very clearly.
But there is one thing, as Lishan's mother said before, if Buddhism can agree to join forces to destroy the god list, then even if it is very disgusted with Buddhism, the sect can also cooperate with it.
Wen Zhong sighed, he couldn't say anything to the elder of Duobao Dao.
It's just that at this time, he also had to remind: "After the journey to the west, Rulai has gathered a huge amount of luck, it is said that he has cut out three corpses, and he is only one step away from enlightenment, he must be secretly planning how to take this crucial step at this time, we must be vigilant, so as not to become his stepping stone." ”
Wen Zhong's talent in cultivation is much stronger than Jiang Ziya and others, but it is inconspicuous for the talented sect.
Before being on the god list, Wen Zhong had just reached the realm of immortals.
But his wisdom and strategy were recognized by the sectarians.
Lishan's mother hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I know from a person's mouth that there seems to be some problem with this good and evil corpse, and if he wants to preach, he must solve this problem. ”
"Therefore, we should be careful during this time, we miss the old love, and the other party may not be afraid of us."
Over the years, what Rulai has done is either for Buddhism, or for himself, and he has never helped the sect even the slightest, and it is no wonder that no one wants to recognize him now.
Bi Xiao is not very familiar with Duobao Dao, and her focus at this time is on the person who revealed the news.
"I know such a secret news, does the person who told you the news have any intentions?"
"Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, the person who told me the news is called Wuchao Zen Master, and he is also another branch of Buddhism, the Great Day of Tantra, and it is rumored that it is incarnated by the surviving Prince Jinwu."
Lishan's mother has no intention of keeping it secret from her peers.
When Wen Zhong heard this, his brows were nervous: "Does he want us to fight with Mahayana Buddhism, and then he will profit?" ”
Lishan's mother nodded: "This is almost a conspiracy, even if we know it, won't we do it?" ”
