"Luoyang is finished?"

Li Daoxuan read these four words softly, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

After he came to Shangyang City, he didn't find any demon footprints, the people here are simple, life is comfortable, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, where is there a sense of danger?

The land lord hurriedly said: "Shangxian, at first, the little old man was also scared half to death, after all, that master has good means, and his cultivation is far better than mine, but more than a month has passed, and Luoyang is still calm!" ”

He sighed: "After all, there is the White Horse Temple, Master Hui Chan has great powers, and with him protecting Luoyang, how can something happen?" So slowly I forgot the words on the pillar. ”

Li Daoxuan didn't take these four words as a joke, he thought for a moment and said, "Didn't you say that the old beggar was quite famous in Luoyang?" Tell me a little bit about him. ”

"Yes, the old beggar called himself surnamed Lu, called Lubian Sheng, a long, long time ago, when the little god had not become a land, he had already lived in seclusion in Luoyang······"

The landlord did not dare to hide anything and told everything he knew.

The origin of the old beggar is a mystery, no one knows when he came to Luoyang, the land lord met the old beggar when he was a teenager, when he saw that the other party was pitiful, he bought a roast chicken and gave it to the other party.

After eating the roast chicken, the old beggar gave him a hexagram, saying that he was a good man of the fourth generation, and that he would die at the age of eighty-four in this life, and that he would be able to become a god after death, but unfortunately the priesthood was not large and his achievements were limited.

At that time, the land lord who was still a teenager did not believe the crazy words of an old beggar, and it was not until he really died at the age of eighty-four and became the land lord of Shangyang City with incense that he suddenly remembered the old beggar who had told him fortunes.

Later, with the help of the priesthood, he continued to collect information about the old beggar, which was not checked properly, and he was shocked when he checked it, the old beggar was more mysterious and powerful than he imagined.

It turned out that in the past few decades, the old beggar has lived in seclusion in Luoyang City, he has a strange personality, seems to be secluded from the world, in fact, he likes to test mortals, if someone can pass the test, he will not hesitate to send a chance.

For example, when he heard that a wealthy merchant was philanthropic, he pretended to be a beggar who was about to die of illness and came to the door to ask for help, only to find that the rich merchant was only hypocritical, but that a lowly servant of the rich merchant was kind-hearted and took the old beggar home to take care of him and even clean up his excrement.

When the rich merchant awoke, he found that all the money in his treasury had turned into dung, and the servant found that the old beggar had disappeared, and that the dung he had cleaned had turned into gold and silver.

On another occasion, when the old beggar heard that a man cherished food so much that he never wasted a single rice or a mile, he went to the man, ate a bowl of noodles and spit it out, and then made him eat the noodles that he spit out.

The old beggar didn't blame, but just sighed that the other party's fate was not enough, and then he fed the bowl of noodles he spit out to a stray dog, and the stray dog ate it and turned into a golden dragon and flew into the sky, and the old beggar disappeared.

There are many similar stories, these decades, the old beggar in Luoyang City frequently appeared, every time it appears will leave a rather legendary story, when people said that there are two old immortals in Luoyang, one is the abbot of the White Horse Temple, and the other is the old beggar who likes to play the world to test mortals.

It's a pity that since he left the words "Luoyang is finished", he has never appeared again. ”

After telling the story of the old beggar, the land lord bowed and saluted: "If the immortal has nothing else to do, then the little god will go back to rest first." ”

"Wait."

Li Daoxuan looked at the abolished Buddha beads at his feet and said, "I heard you talk about the prophecy of "Maitreya will be born and King Ming will come to the world" when you talk about it during the day, but the Hui Chan monk of the White Horse Temple forced you to preach it? ”

The land lord nodded and said: "Shangxian is wise, Master Hui Chan is a great monk in the late stage of the Yang God, and is expected to become the existence of Arhats and Bodhisattvas, what he said, how dare the little god not listen?" ”

"He once called all the land and mountain gods around Luoyang to the White Horse Temple, and told us two things, the first is to issue an edict to respect the Buddha, ordering us not to help the disciples of the Taoist sect, and the second is to let us find a way to spread the dying prophecy of Kumarosh, this string of Buddha beads is the treasure he gave me."

Xuanzang couldn't help but interject: "No, Master Kumarosh has never said such a last word, I think I have read tens of thousands of scriptures, and there has never been a mention of Maitreya's birth and the birth of King Ming!" ”

It's no wonder that he reacted so much, the eight words "Maitreya was born, King Ming was born" actually implied anti-meaning.

Maitreya is known as the future Buddha in Buddhism, symbolizing the person who saves the world, so it has been used as a propaganda slogan by evil thieves from ancient times to the present. 33

For example, in the Northern Wei Dynasty, there were often Shamen uprisings with the slogan of Maitreya salvation, and in the first month of the sixth year of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty, there were more Maitreya disciples who rushed into the palace with "plain crown and clothes" and "burning incense and holding flowers", and in the ninth year of the great cause, there were two rebellions of Maitreya disciples.

Their leaders all claimed to be the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha and wanted to establish an earthly Buddha kingdom.

That's why Xuanzang was so nervous about these eight words, he really didn't want to see someone under the banner of Buddhism to set off swords and wars, causing boundless killing.

The status of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty is already very low, when today's son has no good impression of Buddhism, if someone rebels in the name of Maitreya Buddha, it will undoubtedly be worse for Buddhism.

The land lord waved his hand and said: "Little monk, then I don't know, after all, Master Hui Chan said so, the power of the Yang God Realm will not lie." ”

"Maitreya ······"

Li Daoxuan pondered these eight words and paused for a long time on the word Maitreya.

Master Samle is the consciousness born in the body of Maitreya Buddha, and if there is really a Maitreya in this world, it must be him.

So will the disappearance of Master Sanle have anything to do with this so-called prophecy?

Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan continued to ask: "Recently, has anything strange happened in the entire territory of Luoyang, it is best to have something to do with this prophecy. ”

Before in the teahouse, Li Daoxuan noticed that some people were very excited after hearing the prophecy of "Maitreya will be born and King Ming will come to the world", and they seemed to think of something, but they didn't dare to say it because they were afraid of the existence of outsiders.

There was a hint of hesitation in the eyes of the land lord.

Li Daoxuan was not angry, but said lightly: "Roaring the sky." ”

"Wow!"

Whistling opened his mouth full of sharp teeth, lowered his forelimbs, and fumbled on the ground, looking ready to bite into it. The land man's thighs trembled, and the sharp pain in the wound reminded him that this dog was really ruthless!

"The immortal is angry, it's not that the little god refuses to say it, but this matter······ Master Hui Chan once sternly warned us that we must not leak it to the people in the Taoist sect, otherwise we will ······"

"Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise, you will have to go to the Demon Suppression Tower of the White Horse Temple to live for a few days······"

When talking about the name of the Demon Suppression Tower, the land lord actually shivered subconsciously, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes. Li Daoxuan frowned, and immediately realized that this was not simple.

It is impossible for the abbot of the White Horse Temple, who is deeply rooted in Buddhism, not only is he not afraid of setting himself on fire, but he also secretly claims to be ghosts and gods to spread prophecy.

There is also the town demon tower, I heard that it is the treasure of the town school of the White Horse Temple, it is a medium-grade spiritual treasure, which contains thirty-three kinds of flames, corresponding to the thirty-three heavens of Buddhism, which can smelt all things, no matter how powerful the ghosts and gods are locked in, they will become the spiritual pill of Buddhism in a few days.

The land lord is just the cultivation of the Yin God in the early stage, if you go to the Demon Suppression Tower, it will not take three days, and the incense fire divine power of decades will be refined, and the soul will be scattered.

Li Daoxuan looked at him quietly and said, "Say what Hui Chan wants to hide, and the poor Dao can keep you safe." ”

In his opinion, the young Taoist priest in front of him is indeed powerful, and the vicious dog he raises is the middle stage of the Yin God, which can be called a dragon crossing the river.

However, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, no matter how powerful this real person is, can he still compare to the Hui Chan master who has been in Luoyang for decades?

The other party is not only the late stage of the Yang God, but also the abbot of the White Horse Temple, with countless disciples, and the Demon Suppression Tower of the White Horse Temple is also famous.

Seeing the hesitant appearance of the white-bearded old man, Roaring Heaven suddenly became angry, and it immediately shouted: "Wangwang, your land is really old and dizzy, what kind of thing is Hui Chan, and it deserves to be compared with my master?" ”

The land glanced at Li Daoxuan with some surprise, and found that the other party's expression was indifferent, as if the Hui Chan in the mouth of the black dog was not a great monk in the late stage of the Yang God, but a cat and a dog.

"Roaring heaven, Hui Chan is the abbot of the White Horse Temple, a generation of senior monks, before the matter is clear, don't be too presumptuous."

Li Daoxuan reminded loudly, but there was no harsh meaning in his words, obviously Hui Chan's domineering behavior made him a little dissatisfied in his heart.

At this time, Changle stepped forward, she pinched her waist, and said proudly and proudly: "Father-in-law of the land, although you can rest assured and boldly say, no matter how powerful that Hui Chan is, it can't compare to a finger of my master!" ”

Seeing that the land lord didn't believe it, she snorted and said crisply: "Do you know who my master is?" The land prince bowed and said: "I don't know the real person's surname, which master of Longhu Mountain is it?" ”

Being able to cultivate to the realm of Yang God is by no means an unknown person in the Daomen, and he looks so young, and he is from Longhu Mountain······

The land prince chuckled in his heart, his pupils widened instantly, and he remembered a name, a name that was like thunder, and almost became a legend in the territory of Datang.

Sure enough, Xiao Daotong's crisp voice like a wind chime continued to sound.

"Father-in-law of the land, you have to listen well, what is standing in front of you now is the Qianyuan Miaodao Dragon and Tiger Demon Heavenly Master who was personally sealed by the son today, and it is also my Tang Dynasty National Teacher Li - Dao - Yixuan!"

She shouted out Master's name, her big black eyes shining like stars in the sky. Bang!

Although there was a guess in his heart, when he really heard this name, the land lord still couldn't hide his shock, and the whole person stayed there, looking straight at Li Daoxuan, and the hand holding the cane was trembling slightly.

"You······ You are the ······ The Taichong real person who killed Maha, Zhen Chang'an, slaying the demon ape, and punishing the five evils? ”

Li Daoxuan smiled faintly and said, "If it is fake, the land lord, you can always rest assured this time." Syllable!

The crutches fell to the ground, and the land lord was so excited that he was a little incoherent for a while. "Let it go······ Rest assured, absolutely assured! ”

"Shangyang Land Qiao Zhonghan, meet the national teacher!"

He knelt down, looking very excited, and made a great salute respectfully.

Although Li Daoxuan is much younger than him, the other party's cultivation and achievements are like the sun and moon in the sky, burning and cannot be looked at directly, since his debut, I don't know how many big things have been done that have caused a sensation in the world!

What's even more rare is that Li Daoxuan is not like other yang gods, only talking about his own immortal and Taoist, since he succeeded to the Tang Dynasty, he has begged for rain for the people, established a dragon to clear demons, shocked the Turks and Tibet, and ensured the peace of the Tang Dynasty.

The land prince was also a Confucian who read poetry and books during his lifetime, and he had a heart to serve the country, and he admired people like Li Daoxuan the most, in fact, he had long been looking forward to meeting the legendary national teacher.

Li Daoxuan waved his sleeves to help him up, and advised: "It is a secret for the poor road to come to Luoyang, and I hope that the land lord will keep it secret for me."

"Understood, little god understood!"

The land lord looked honored, but he only felt that the injury on his thigh didn't hurt much.

"National teacher, the little god can be regarded as looking forward to you, don't you know, the Hui Chanzhu of the White Horse Temple is so domineering, he not only openly despises the people in the Taoist sect, but also calls us mountain gods to the land, Baiyun Mountain God is because he said a few fair words, he was refined half to death in the demon tower!"

"Oh yes, some time ago, he summoned us over and ordered us to spread the prophecy of 'Maitreya will be born, and King Ming will come to the world', so the little god has to incarnate as a storyteller to talk about those non-existent things! ”

Li Daoxuan said quietly: "Do you know why Hui Chan asked you to spread this prophecy? The land lord said without thinking: "It must be because of the handmaid of the Zhou family!" ”

He didn't have any scruples and concealments this time, and told Li Daoxuan everything.

"National teacher, don't you know, just ten days ago, a huge footprint suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Shangyang City, and then a servant girl of the Zhou family stepped on the footprints, and within a few days, the maid who was still a virgin was pregnant, and her belly was getting bigger and bigger day by day!"

Li Daoxuan's heart moved, in ancient mythology, the mother of the human emperor Fuxi stepped on the footprints and became pregnant, is this maid pregnant in the belly, is it a reincarnated Gu Immortal?

"Strange to say, after the maid became pregnant, the huge footprints magically disappeared, leaving no trace, and the maidservant actually said that that night, she dreamed of the Buddha entering her womb. ”

"No one believed this, but in just ten days, her belly is getting bigger and bigger, the old man of the Zhou family was worried that it was a monster, so he invited the monks of the White Horse Temple to see, and the monks all became crazy after seeing the maidservant, and they knelt down and kissed the footprints she had stepped on, saying that they had seen the Buddha!"

The last incident alarmed the abbot of Hui Chan, and he personally brought the maid back to the White Horse Temple, and after a few days, he called the mountain gods and lands around Luoyang, and asked us to preach the prophecy of "Maitreya will be born, and King Ming will come to the world". ”

The land lord was very sure: "In my opinion, the so-called Maitreya and King Ming must refer to the child in the belly of the servant girl!" ”

Some people died, but not completely......
