If it is said that before the opening ceremony, it was these immortal characters who opened the eyes of the people of Chang'an City, then the first scene of the opening of the sect in front of them was undoubtedly amazing in their hearts.

In fact, whether it is the Xuanmen of Dongzhou or the Buddhism of Xizhou, when preaching to the beings under their rule, they will always belittle the Nanzhou people to a greater or lesser extent

What is said that the sky is high and the earth is thick, the things are wide and the people are dense, but there are many greed and killing, more lewdness and more deception;

What do you say that you don't follow the gods and Buddhas, don't do good karma, don't respect the three lights, and don't value the grains;

What's more, there are also slanders against the Nanzhou people for being disloyal and unfilial, unrighteous and unkind, concealing oneself, fighting small scales, and killing animals.

Even if the Terran Confucian established the religion of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, he was still called by them as ignorant and indulgent.

And many people who don't know the inside story naturally believe in the words of the immortal Buddha, so their impression of Nanzhou is actually very general. In addition, they are blessed by the Immortal Buddha, and Nanzhou, which is more or less unfavored by the Immortal Buddha, is also a barbaric land.

But what is the truth?

Is it that Nanzhou is not treated by the immortals and Buddhas, or is it the immortals. Is it difficult to open up the situation in Nanzhou at all and establish a Taoist inheritance?

You must know that when the king ruled the world, the Central Plains of Nanzhou was already known as the land of Shenzhou.

That is, after the Son of Heaven ruled the world, the authority of the Son of Heaven was limited to one country, not to mention the command of the Three Realms, that is, if you want to sit on the throne, you must also follow the law. Shenzhou's influence in the Three Realms was naturally weakened.

In addition, during the two Jin and Southern Dynasties, Nanzhou was indeed in turmoil, and it was precisely because of this that the Buddhist and Taoist sects of Dongzhou and Xizhou said such words.

And judging by this, it doesn't seem to be a mistake. Even the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in the Fire Cloud Cave had nothing to say.

At that time, it was indeed a dark period in the Central Plains Shenzhou, but since the unification of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Shenzhou has recovered, and now the Tian Khan has unified Nanzhou, not to mention, and even the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry under his command has stepped on Xiniu Hezhou. Its power is unparalleled for a while, and it can even be said that it has surpassed the Qin and Han dynasties, and it is worthy of the name of the Tang Dynasty.

This also makes the name of the Central Plains Shenzhou appear again in the field of vision of the people of the East and West Continents, if the connection between the East Continent and the South Continent is more estranged, and I don't know the current situation of the South Continent. Then Xizhou is very different.

Up to the Lingshan Buddha Sect, down to the subjects of various countries. Because of Master Sanzang's westward journey, he is very familiar with the current Tang Dynasty.

Even after Master Sanzang left Lingshan to learn scriptures, the Buddha once joked with the Bodhisattva: "I really don't know if Tang Sanzang came to Xizhou to learn scriptures or to preach."

The Bodhisattva deeply thought of this: "I Lingshan Mahayana scriptures, he did take back Chang'an, but now he wants to set up his own Enlightenment Sect, although he also belongs to the Mahayana sect, so for the people of the Tang Dynasty, what is the position of Lingshan in it?" I have to say that Sanzang always does things beyond my expectations. ”

Having said that, the Bodhisattva did not object to Venerable Sanzang acting in this way, and was even willing to facilitate it. Because she knew that the establishment of the Enlightenment Sect would be beneficial and harmless to the entire Three Realms of beings.

Perhaps the luck of the Western Lingshan will be divided by the Wisdom Sect of Nanzhou because of this, but for Buddhism as a whole, its luck has not decreased, but has been rising.

The difference is that if Lingshan allows the Wisdom Sect to develop all the way like this, perhaps the Wisdom Sect will really have the opportunity to rely on the foundation of Nanzhou and oppose Ling Mountain.

And the reason why the Buddha contributed to this matter is precisely because of this calculation, it doesn't matter if you Tang Sanzang doesn't want to be a Buddha in Lingshan, it's completely okay to be a Buddha in Chang'an.

If you really let Duobao Rulai achieve what you want, then the fun will be great. At that time, even the roots of the Western religion were about to be cut off.

The monks who spontaneously came here today are actually mostly monks from the small sect of Buddhism in Xizhou, compared to the Xuanmen of Dongzhou, whether it was Master Sanzang arguing with the Buddhas alone in Lingshan that day, or the scene of the great sage reciting thunder sound, they all hated not being able to see it in person.

Therefore, when Master Sanzang was in the Tianzhu Kingdom Abbot Wusha Conference, they all rushed to the scene from all parts of Xizhou, listened to Master Sanzang's Buddhism with their own ears, and all of them were happy and convinced that Master Sanzang opened a sect this time, and they also came from thousands of miles to support the scene.

I don't want to be able to join Master Sanzang's Enlightenment Sect, I just hope that when Master Sanzang preaches in the future, they can hear it at the first time, which is enough.

Such monks are not just monks practicing in the human world.

It is the many arhats in the spiritual mountain, and there is also the intention of changing the court, and there are even many monks who practice Hinayana Buddhism, after all, Master Sanzang is still the Hinayana "liberation heaven".

The immortals in Dongzhou are relatively few, and even those who come here today are all coming for the Great Sage, and they are all friendships formed when they were officials in the Heavenly Court.

It's just that the Great Sage made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and after being pressed by the Buddha under the Five Elements Mountain, he broke off contact from then on, and now the Great Sage not only got out of trouble, but also worshiped under the door of the Holy Buddha of the Three Realms, Master Sanzang, and they didn't want to come to "continue the frontier."

It was only after coming to Nanzhou that I realized that in just a few decades, there have been such earth-shaking changes in the Central Plains Shenzhou.

For the monks of Dongzhou, except for the occasional passing through Nanzhou when they traveled to the Three Realms, they were reluctant to set foot in Nanzhou at ordinary times, although the era of the king of people has passed, but in fact, it is only more than 1,700 years since the fall of the Great Shang and the end of the era of the king of people.

Although the successive generations of human kings were not as strong as the human kings in ancient times, the ruling power was still there.

Even at the end of the Shang Dynasty, weren't there still many immortal monks serving in the court?

Such as Wen Taishi, a veteran of the Three Dynasties, Li Jing, the chief soldier of Chentang Pass, the four generals of the Demon Family of Jiameng Pass, Zhang Guifang, the chief soldier of Qinglong Pass, Kong Xuan, the chief soldier of Sanshan Pass who blocked the road in Jinjiling, and so on

And when the Son of Heaven ruled the world, it was completely different.

Even Ji Fa, the king of Zhou Wu who overthrew the Great Shang back then, did not receive the allegiance of the cultivators, let alone the immortals.

When the crusade against the King of Xuan was back then, the immortal monks from all walks of life only listened to Jiang Taigong's orders, but the martial king Ji Fa was more like a mascot posed.

Therefore, it is not for no reason that the Son of Heaven lost the right to control the world, because this world was not fought by his own hands.

This is also the reason why Emperor Ziwei went back three times and twice, and separated the incarnation to fight the world with the stars in the lower realm, and the power of the bloodline of the human race was too strong, and Ying Zheng directly suppressed Liu Bang, who was incarnated into the world, so that he couldn't raise his head at all, and waited until Ying Zheng was against the sky and was eaten by the way of heaven, and Liu Bang took advantage of the situation.

But even so, it almost overturned in the hands of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

Later, Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, and also wanted to revive the prosperous world of the king. Emperor Ziwei once again separated from the incarnation of the Nether Realm, and reincarnated as Liu Xiu also relied on the power of the Mandate of Heaven to reverse the situation.

And now this incarnation is reincarnated as Li Shimin. is obviously the Son of Heaven, but he gave birth to the idea of being a human king. This is something that Emperor Ziwei himself did not expect, but he does not intend to intervene in this matter, it is all up to Li Shimin himself to do in the Nether.

But with Li Shimin alone, it is naturally difficult to achieve this arrogant idea that is unrealistic at first glance, but if there is the Three Realms Holy Buddha as the backing, then the situation will be very different.

In other words, if there is a human king behind the Three Tibetan Masters to support it, then what kind of scene will the Wisdom Sect be in the Three Realms?

The human king and the holy Buddha are sworn brothers again, and the two of them join forces. I'm afraid that the world is really going to be self-contained. Even the Jade Emperor, who sits high above the Nine Heavens Heavens, has to be carefully considered in his attitude towards the world.

There are very few people who can understand these things.

The vast majority of people present still came over to watch the fun.

Fahai doesn't like things in the situation, so the ceremony of opening the sect is not complicated, but there are also a lot of procedures.

After calming the emotions of the people of Chang'an, Fahai fell back to the altar to thank the guests.

"Amitabha."

Fahai recited the Buddha's name, then folded his hands and saluted the guests, and then said: "Poor monk Tang Sanzang, welcome to participate in the opening ceremony of my Enlightenment Sect today." ”

The guests also got up one after another and returned the salute to Master Sanzang.

Even Zhenyuan Daxian and Li Shan Lao Mu are no exception, and Bai Suzhen, who is behind Li Shan Lao Mu, can't help but be curious about Master Sanzang in addition to saluting, after all, she has not heard much about Master Sanzang these days. When I saw the deity today, how could I not be curious?

Queen Xiliang, who was also following Lao Mu, saw that Bai Suzhen cast her eyes in the direction of the royal brother from time to time, and later when the royal brother talked about the origin and origin of the "Wisdom Sect", she was even more staring at the royal brother and brother, which made Queen Xiliang couldn't help frowning secretly.

She was by no means surprised by this, but she was very helpless in her heart: why did the royal brother and brother be just a monk, but he could provoke a woman's affection like this?

Of course, Queen Xiliang could see that her senior sister Bai looked at her brother Yu with no admiration, but more curiosity. I can only hope in my heart that it is best to stop there.

Otherwise, there will be one more poor person in the Three Realms.

Li Shan Laomu was also aware of this, but she was not worried about this, although Bai Suzhen had Buddha difficulties and love calamities, neither of them should be on Sanzang.

Now.

On the altar, Master Sanzang, who was briefly expounding on the teachings of the Enlightenment-only religion, happened to look at Bai Suzhen when he talked about the fundamentality of the "Dharma-Phase" to the "Consciousness-Only".

Hiss –

Even Fahai inevitably had some waves in his heart. There was no doubt that he recognized Bai Suzhen at a glance.

But today's Fahai is by no means the Fahai of the past, even if he saw Bai Suzhen at this moment, even though his heart was a little rippling, his expression was still unfazed, and he even smiled and nodded to Bai Suzhen.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen did not show timidity, and even more generously bowed to Master Sanzang.

But at the same time, there was also a little strangeness in my heart, and my heart said, "How do you feel that this Master Sanzang knows me?"

"Senior brother, does Master know this white girl?"

The little white dragon on the side, seeing that the master was still interacting with Bai Suzhen behind Lao Mu, couldn't help but ask the senior brother next to him.

"I don't know it, the white girl said that she has been practicing in Qingcheng Mountain since she was a child, and she recently worshipped Lao Mu as a teacher, so she followed Lao Mu to walk in the Three Realms." When the Great Sage said this, he was not quite sure, "Master should not have had a chance to know her, but it is also possible that Master went to Qingcheng Mountain before leaving Chang'an to learn scriptures; Or maybe the golden cicada in Master's previous life, who had met the white girl. ”

"It's strange to say." The Great Sage also said one more word to Xiao Bailong: "When I saw her for the first time, I always felt that I had seen her somewhere. Alas? ”

As he spoke, the Great Sage suddenly sighed lightly, and his eyes stared at the little white dragon for a long time, and then suddenly realized.

I see!

It's you!

Only then did the Great Sage understand that he was inexplicably familiar when he saw Bai Suzhen, but he was also very sure what the strange illusion that he and Bai Suzhen met for the first time was going on.

Didn't the little white dragon on the westbound road always turn into a white snake to explore the way?

And when he saw Bai Suzhen for the first time, he directly saw through her true body with fiery eyes. What I feel familiar with is not her human appearance, but her white snake real body.

It's also interesting to say that her white snake real body is quite similar to the white snake that the little white dragon has become.

The Great Sage also told the little white dragon about it, and the little white dragon gave this response: "Oh, the shape of the white snake I changed into is also a white snake I saw when I was a guest on Qingcheng Mountain with my father when I was young. At that time, the white snake was crossing the immortal tribulation, but unfortunately it fell short in the end and died under the heavenly tribulation. ”

The Great Sage himself is an expert in the "Way of Change", and naturally knows how easy it is to simulate change and change out of thin air.

The little white dragon is based on the white snake he saw back then, and it is easier for the white dragon to turn into a white snake.

"Perhaps. The white snake you saw back then is likely to be Bai Suzhen's father or mother. After hearing this, the Great Sage came to such a conclusion.

The secret communication between the two of them ended, and the process of the master on the altar before the opening of the sect also went seventy-seven, eighty-eight.

"The Enlightenment Sect opens!"

Hearing Master's words fall, the little white dragon immediately turned into a divine dragon and rose up-

Boom!

Then there was a thunderclap, and the little white dragon bit the flower ball on the red cloth covering the plaque engraved with the words "Weizhi Zong", and flew into the clouds with the red silk.

Wujing turned out the nine spirits in the direction of the nine palaces, recited the true scriptures, the great sage pulled out a handful of hairs, and blew lightly, and suddenly the golden lotus surged all over, and Bodhi took root and the rest of the brothers also had their own tasks, which pushed the atmosphere of the scene.

This time, it was the monks who knelt down first

Whether it is a monk from the Tang Dynasty or a monk from Xizhou, there are no exceptions.

Even the arhats and bhikshus who came from the spiritual mountain have a pious expression. It was solemn.
