Chapter 489: It's already merciful if you don't eradicate them, and it's a fart to collect some taxes!

Honglu Temple Pavilion Station.

With the entry of monks and Taoists from all over the Ming Dynasty into Beijing, the hall has gradually become lively.

It's just that these people don't seem to be very happy, even if they are eminent monks from Wutai Mountain, they keep a straight face all day long, and they don't have any interest in the people and things around them.

The monks were so depressed, and Zhang Yuchu and Zhang Zhenren of Longhu Mountain were not happy.

Because he heard a rumor that the imperial court invited them to Beijing this time to discuss whether it was false, and wanted them to hand over the temple property and the temple property as true.

They have accumulated over the generations, and they may be buried in his hands, how can he not be anxious in his heart?

Compared with the worries of these famous factions, Zhang Sloppy, who stayed in the Huimin Medical Center all day, was much more comfortable.

When I had time, I led a group of medical students to the ward for rounds, and then discussed the latest treatment options with the best group of doctors in Daming, which could not have been more fulfilling.

As for the rebuilding of the Wudang Mountain Dojo promised by the old emperor and the imperial grandson, he had long been out of his mind.

He can see that the two grandparents will only coax him with words, and they want the two of them to pay for him to help him repair the dojo door.

On this day, he had just led the students to check the room and gave some medical advice to several patients who had just undergone simple surgery, when he saw the old man Zhang Yuchu waiting at his door.

As soon as Zhang Yuchu saw Zhang Yuchu, he knew that this product was coming to him. It is nothing more than to use his identity as the master of the imperial grandson to let himself ask the imperial grandson to intercede, and not to confiscate their land in Longhu Mountain.

However, Zhang Sloppy knew his own family affairs, and the imperial grandson didn't believe in them at all, and he didn't have any face at all with the imperial grandson.

"Senior brother, senior brother is here to pay a visit!"

"Senior Brother Yuchu, Poor Dao is very busy right now, why don't you come back another day?"

Zhang Yuchu shook his head firmly when he heard this.

"No!"

"Tomorrow is the Tao, no one knows what tomorrow will be like, so let's come and pay a visit today."

Zhang Sloppy saw that he couldn't shirk it, so he could only send the students away first, and then lead Zhang Yuchu to his office.

"Senior Brother Yuchu, Poor Dao knows why you came."

"I can't really help with this, so you might as well figure it out yourself!"

Zhang Yuchu said with a melancholy face when he heard this.

"Senior brother, the world's Daomen are one family, you can't sit idly by, right?"

"Senior brother, no matter what you say, you will occupy the righteousness of the emperor's grandson's master, as long as you speak, the emperor's grandson will more or less sell you some face!"

"The junior brother doesn't ask for more, he only wants to keep half of the land, and the remaining half will take the initiative to dedicate it to the court and the emperor's grandson!"

Zhang Sloppy heard Zhang Yuchu say this, and the expression on his face softened slightly.

"If you can really give half of it, there may be a chance for it."

"It's just that you don't look down on me as a master, what I told the old emperor is taught on behalf of the heavens, and in principle, I am just the senior brother of the emperor's grandson......

Zhang Yuchu's old face couldn't help but blush when he heard this, in fact, whether it was the master or the senior brother, it was a lie pulled out by the two.

It's just that the two of them have always been curious, why did the imperial grandson never take the initiative to demolish them?

"Then there's Senior Brother Lao!"

"As long as Senior Brother can help me keep half of the land in Longhu Mountain, Senior Brother is willing to take out three million taels of silver to help Senior Brother build the Wudang Mountain Dojo!"

"Three million?"

Zhang Sloppy, who has lived in a cave for half his life, will not roll his eyes when he hears "three million".

This Dragon and Tiger Mountain is worthy of being a thousand-year-old dojo, and she is really rich, and she took out three million taels of silver without even blinking an eye!

After Zhang Yuchu was sent away, Zhang Sloppy ushered in an abbot of Wutai Mountain Daxiantong Temple.

"Yuan Jue has seen the real person who protects the country!"

Zhang Sloppy's official title is a real person who protects the country through microscopic manifestation, and is personally awarded by Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Sloppy saw Yuan Jue say this, and hurriedly got up to return the salute.

"Poor Dao has seen the abbot of Yuanjue!"

The abbot of Yuanjue is not simple, the Xiantong Temple where he is located is ordered by Emperor Hongwu to rebuild, and he personally inscribed the plaque of "Daxiantong Temple" to show his faith.

It can be said that both of them have official endorsements, but in the long run, Zhang Sloppy's endorsement is even greater.

After all, he occupies the position of the emperor's grandson's master, and he is still the emperor's personal seal of the microscopic manifestation to protect the country.

The word "protector" alone is incomparable to the abbot and presiding officer of other monasteries.

"The real people who protect the country don't need to be polite, the poor monk is not here to talk about Taoism this time, but just to chat with Taoist friends about mundane things."

"I don't know what you think about the imperial court's taxation of monasteries and Taoist temples?"

Zhang Sloppy has no industry in Wudang Mountain, so he has never been interested in this matter.

However, since the abbot of Xiantong Temple has asked, he can only bite the bullet and say a few words.

"Although you and I claim to be outsiders, the red dust world we live in belongs to the orthodoxy of the imperial dynasty."

"As the saying goes, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister."

"If the price can't be let the Buddha persuade Your Majesty, according to the poor way, the tax that should be paid should be paid."

"Don't you see the Martial Sect destroying the Buddha?"

"Your Majesty and the imperial grandson just want you to pay taxes like the people of the world, and you haven't destroyed the temple and destroyed the Buddha, so you can cooperate well......

This was not the answer Yuan Jue wanted, he had come to seek allies this time.

"Zhang Zhenren, aren't you afraid of the decline of the Daomen?"

Zhang sloppy smiled when he heard this.

"The abbot said this too funny, since you entered Middle-earth, when did my Dao Sect prosper?"

"Of the four hundred and eighty temples of the Southern Dynasty, none of the pavilions are Daomen!"

Zhang Sloppy said this, and couldn't help but spit out a sour.

"When it comes to defrauding money, my Daomen can't catch up with your Buddhism......

"Therefore, let you Buddhists pay more, and the poor Dao feels that this is in line with the way of heaven."

"The way of heaven is more than what is damaged and what is not enough!"

In fact, the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is no less than the dispute between the imperial court and them to collect taxes. Even in the face of Yuanjue, who took the initiative to come to the door to seek peace, Zhang Sloppy still couldn't help but sarcastically say a few words.

Yuan Jue heard Zhang Sloppy ridicule, worthy of a contemporary monk, without the slightest anger on his face.

"Zhang Zhenren said seriously, it is just that believers worship Buddha, and we monks only reserve this gift of worshipping Buddha and worshipping Buddha for the good men and women in the world, and those incense money will be given back to the believers and the people after all......

Yuan Jue's answer is not unclever, but it is too funny to listen to Zhang Sloppy ears. When he was young, he traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers, and he heard a lot, how could he believe his nonsense?

As the so-called famous mountain monks in the world are majority, if he didn't be able to do the group of monks in Songshan, he wouldn't have gone to Wutai Mountain to open up a dojo.

But there's nothing to say about this, who made them not angry, and couldn't do this group of monks in terms of fooling people? Yuan Jue talked for a while, and saw that Zhang was sloppy and never made a stubble, so he could only use a killer move.

"The poor monk heard that Zhang Zhenren has always wanted to build a dojo, if he doesn't give up, the poor monk will build a pure copper hall for Zhang Zhenren on behalf of the monasteries in Wutai Mountain."

Zhang Sloppy suddenly got up when he heard this, he had a wish in his early years, he wanted to build a golden temple in Wudang Mountain, to absorb the true and pure thunder qi in the sky, and to assist himself in his cultivation.

However, he had only mentioned this matter to a few of his apprentices, and had not told outsiders about it, how did this old monk know?

"Thank you Abbot for your kindness, it's just that the cost of the pure copper hall is too high, and the poor Dao doesn't dare to accept such a big gift from you."

"Zhang Zhenren should not be polite, didn't the poor monk just say that the incense money of the believers is taken from the people and used by the people."

"Although Buddhism has different paths, it is indeed the same in terms of soothing people's hearts and guiding people to goodness, and the poor monks built a dojo for Zhang Zhenren, and also built a dojo for the people of the world."

"This ......"

Zhang Sloppy heard Monk Yuanjue say this, and for a while he really didn't know how to refuse, so he could only

Reluctantly, he said.

"It's not a secret, Poor Dao doesn't have much face in the imperial court, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help Master Yuanjue achieve his wish."

Hearing this, Yuan Jue folded his hands and said the Buddha name.

"What does the poor monk want?"

"All the poor monks wish is for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and the Ming Dynasty will be smooth and rainy!"

Zhang Sloppy heard this, and even shouted in his heart, this old monk's rank is not low, even if it is a private meeting, he will not say a wrong word!

"Coincidentally!"

"Poor Dao's wish is the same as that of the master!"

After Zhang Sloppy sent Yuanjue away, he met several monks and Taoist priests one after another.

Many of these people were the ones he once looked up to, but now they are looking for themselves to worship the mountain, donating money and materials to help him build a dojo, and at the same time flattering and praising himself as a Taoist leader.

Fortunately, Zhang Sloppy has long passed the age of liking to listen to beautiful words, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to bear their foolishness.

Even so, after another day of dealing with a monk and Taoist, Zhang was a little sloppy, and even when he dreamed at night, he saw the scene of the Thunder Fire Refining Hall on the top of Wudang Mountain.

The next day, the Buddhist Taoism officially began, and Zhang Sloppy was also invited to attend.

Because of the historical lessons of the debate on Buddhism and Taoism in the early Yuan Dynasty, this time the Quanzhen Sect, Longhushan and other Taoist sects did not talk about the question of who came first and who came later, but carried out various peeling on the worldviews of both sides.

The Buddha Gate asked how to divide the thirty-three days, and the Daomen asked how high Mount Meru was.

Buddhism asked how to give birth to one, and the Taoist Gate replied to what is a flower and a world.

These old debates are simply pediatric for the real masters, but they are happy to be heard by the people of the capital. Especially the scene where the bald monk scolded the old man with the bull-nosed old Taoist sleeves made the people applaud.

It was not until the White Lotus Sect joined that the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism was temporarily over, and it began to transform into Buddhism and Taoism joining forces to refute the White Lotus Sect.

The White Lotus Sect has always claimed to be a branch of Buddhism, but to the surprise of the common people, all the monks in the field unanimously denied this view, believing that the White Lotus Sect has nothing to do with Buddhism.

The Daomen also stepped on it, directly dismissing the relationship between the Daomen and the White Lotus Sect, claiming that they had just stolen some of the Daomen's spells to deceive.

Then the White Lotus Sect demonstrated various secret methods, and then was debunked by the masters of Buddhism and Taoism.

The common people are fascinated by these secret methods, what rune paper spontaneously combusts, what rune paper floats, and so on. But for a group of high-achieving students led by Zhu Yunxi, these are just small physics experiments.

"Your Highness, have they smeared white phosphorus on the paper?"

"And the reason why the villain was able to float was only driven by the hot air......

Zhu Yunxi heard the comments of the students around him and said lightly.

"Don't underestimate these tricks, the common people really believe this!"

"Therefore, your task in the future is very important, that is, to do everything possible to snatch back the people of the Ming Dynasty from cults like Buddhism, Taoism, and the White Lotus Sect, so that they can respect reality and believe in the study of things!"

"Obey the teachings of the emperor's grandson!"

Zhu Yunxi stayed with the students for a while, and then ran to chat with Qin Hengbo.

Before Qin Hengbo took refuge in Zhu Yunxi, he was a famous immortal cultivator in the Ming Dynasty, and he either drilled into the famous mountains and rivers every day, or visited the Tao of various immortals, alchemy and medicine.

At this time, seeing a group of monks and Taoists debating with the demons of the White Lotus Sect, the little illusion that Qin Hengbo had in his heart about the immortals was also shattered.

What made Qin Hengbo even more devastated was that the imperial grandson slipped over at some point and asked him cheaply how he felt......

"Master Qin, how do you feel after listening to them for so long, do you want to go down and have a debate with them?"

"For example, refute them from the perspective of the universe and the worldview?"

Qin Hengbo touched his beard in embarrassment when he heard this.

"Your Royal Highness, don't come to punish you, Wechen is desperate enough......

"Now Master Qin

Fu still thinks it's too much to ask them to collect taxes?"

Qin Hengbo shook his head firmly.

"Not too much!"

"They have fooled the people and harmed others and themselves, and it is already considered merciful if they are not eradicated, and it is a fart to collect some taxes!"

After Qin Hengbo said this, he flicked his sleeves angrily and left.

His sleeve was not thrown to Zhu Yunxi, but he was really angry by the monks and Taoists on the stage. Zhu Yunxi didn't care about what was said on the stage, as long as the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism could refute the White Lotus Sect.

Although the White Lotus Sect has a lot of influence among the people, their little tricks are completely inadequate in front of the serious Buddhism and Taoism. Whether it is a spliced doctrine or a random scripture, it can be found by Buddhism and Taoism countless loopholes for attack.

In order to achieve the effect of reversing the White Lotus Sect, Zhu Yunxi directly announced that the debate would be extended for three days.

This can hurt Ma Wencai, he was stalking on the first day, and he was directly rotten on the second day, what do you like to say, anyway, I said mine, let's not interfere. On the third day, he didn't even bother to say anything, but he shook his head no matter what the other party said. On the fourth day, he lay down directly and dealt with the audience with a sentence of "yes, yes, yes".

It's not that Marven doesn't work hard, it's that the opponent is too strong. Compared with the monks and Taoists of Wutai Mountain and Longhu Mountain, the White Lotus Sect is really not as good as a scumbag.

After the Buddhist debate ended, Zhu Yunxi didn't care much about the part of the Buddhist debate, but ordered someone to focus on extracting the part of Buddhism and Taoism that refutes the White Lotus Sect, and then named it "The White Lotus Absurdity" and published it in the world. For the wonderful part, he also focused on the book and ordered the staff of supply and marketing cooperatives, post offices, and medical centers around the country to vigorously preach.

This is just one part of his plan to smash the White Lotus Sect, piercing it through the faith, and making it lose its ability to fool the people!

However, these are all later words, and he still has an important thing to do at the moment, that is, to discuss with the Buddha and the Taoist Sanqing, whether he can pay some taxes to the imperial court......
