Chapter 1177: Digging the corner
The group of great monks who explained the religion, although they had accused Ye Zan of cruelty before, did not take Ye Zan's words as a deaf ear. When they descended on the Dawn World, they also deliberately chose a relatively remote place and did not make any eye-catching moves.
Strictly speaking, the things that Ye Zan did in the Dawn World before, regardless of whether they were cruel to the natives of the Dawn World, but they were really helpful to the "preaching" of the Dawn World. Although Buddhism is independent of Taoism, it can also enjoy this convenience in the matter of "preaching".
There is always such a person in this world, who enjoys the convenience created by others, but at the same time picks and chooses to find fault there. If you want to say that you leave things to him to do, he will refrain from doing that in every possible way, and even if he does, he will not be able to do it at all.
This group of monks is the same, while feeling that Ye Zan's methods are almost demonic, but on the other hand, they enjoy the results with peace of mind.
After the monks came to the world of Dawn, they did not first look for a place to build a dojo like those monastic sects, but scattered around the world. While walking in the world, they spread the "Tao" of their own teachings, and at the same time they also did some things to "help the suffering".
Although the cataclysm caused by the descendants of the wizard has been eliminated, the world itself is full of countless sufferings. It's not that the catastrophe has been eliminated, and the people of the Dawn World can live a peaceful and happy life from now on, and they still have to suffer what they deserve.
And these monks, at least they are all primordial god-level cultivators, and it is naturally very simple to solve problems for those mundane mortals. For example, if someone is suffering from a serious illness, the monk recites a few verses of the scriptures and waves his hand to wipe the lesion, and the other person suddenly becomes alive. For another example, there are a large number of victims who are about to starve to death, and it is naturally not difficult for monks to get worldly money.
For more than a month, the natives of the entire Dawn World were no strangers to the shaved monks. Although, the natives also couldn't figure out what these monks had to do with the research institute of prehistoric civilizations. But, after all, they all got help from the monks, and they at least didn't think the monks were bad people.
Then, seeing that the time was almost up, the monks scattered all over the world finally began to build the "dojo", that is, the temple. Unlike the monastic sects, most of the monks' temples are located in places where people gather, such as finding a place directly in a certain city, or on a mountain not far from the city.
At the same time as the temple was being built, the monks also began to recruit believers and began to create the indigenous bald people of the Dawn World.
In terms of recruiting believers, the monks of the Buddha sect are different from the monastic sects. Those cultivators, even if they knew that this group of disciples would not have much achievement, would still have some tests in terms of qualifications and temperament. However, the Buddha is not picky at all, as long as you are willing to "take refuge in my Buddha", even if you are already forty or fifty years old, you will also be shaved and accepted as a disciple.
After all, the catastrophe caused by the wizards before and the great damage caused to the people of the Dawn World could not be completely eliminated in just a few months. Therefore, after the completion of the various temples on the side of the Buddha's religion, as soon as it was said that disciples could be recruited indiscriminately, the temples were filled almost in the blink of an eye.
Those natives may not know what it means to worship Buddhism. All they know is that as long as they shave their hair, they don't have to worry about starving to death, and they don't have to worry about being bullied. No culture, beliefs, customs, etc., can compare with the word "live", and only by living can we consider anything else.
Of course, in addition to establishing temples in various cities, the Buddha sects are also looking for places to establish real dojos, just like the monastic sects. After all, those temples in the city are only used to expand the influence of the faith, and they are used to attract believers. And if they really want to cultivate Buddhism, they also need to be the same as the cultivation sect, they need a better dojo similar to the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, and they also need all kinds of cultivation resources.
At this time, the influence of a late step appeared, after all, the really good "Cave Heaven Blessed Land" had already been carved up by the Cultivation Sect. If Shakti wants to find a good place, he will either compete with those monastic sects, or he can only lower his requirements and find a place to make do.
Don't look at the monastic sects as a plate of loose sand, but if there is a conflict with the Buddha, this plate of loose sand will not let fellow practitioners be bullied. You don't care if this fellow is bullied, maybe it will be your turn to be bullied next time, and who can you expect to help when the time comes.
As for lowering the requirements, the monks were equally reluctant. After all, the dignified explanatory religion is a great religion alongside Taoism, so how can it be possible to make a second- or third-rate dojo to fool the Buddha.
So, nearly another month passed, and after some exploration, the monks' eyes fell on the holy land of the Dawn Church.
Although the power system of the Dawn World is different from that of the Cultivation World, there are some aspects in common. For example, when cultivating, there is almost no power system that depends on the environment, and it can only be cultivated in a barren place.
Therefore, the holy place of the Dawn Church can be regarded as a "blessed land" strictly speaking. Moreover, don't look at the fact that the Dawn Church originally had a low status in the Dawn world, but it was also the only religion in this world, so naturally it would not arbitrarily designate a place as a holy place. It can be said that among the areas that Ye Zan originally divided and used to build the dojo, the holy place of the Dawn Church was definitely at the forefront.
This is also the reason why, when Ye Zan divided the dojo area for everyone, he clearly told everyone, "Don't fight the idea of the Holy Land of the Dawn Church".
Of course, the monks of the Buddha also knew that the Dawn Church was already in the hands of Ye Zan. At the beginning, when they had just come over, Ye Zan stopped them in the void and told them all kinds of things in the Dawn World, and mentioned the matter of the Dawn Church. After all, all the things that Ye Zan did were basically based on the Dawn Church.
However, since the Buddha has started the idea of the Holy Land of the Dawn Church, it is natural that he has also considered it. In their opinion, Bartley and others of the Dawn Church should be just a cooperative relationship with Yezan. Since it's a partnership, who is it not a partnership?
What Shijiao is best at is digging up corners, just like the myth "Romance of the Gods" in the world of science and technology, what he believes in is "as long as the hoe is waved diligently, there is no corner of the wall that cannot be dug down". In "The Romance of the Gods", after a war of the gods, the Western Sect poached the disciples of the original Tianzun to be the Buddha, and at the same time "dug up" the disciples of the Tongtian Sect Master to be mounts, and suddenly became the biggest winner.
Although the interpretation of this world is not the Western religion in "Romance of the Gods", the two are indeed inextricably linked.
Therefore, in the eyes of the monks who explained the religion, if they went to talk about cooperation with the "Dawn Church", they might be able to convert Bartley and others. The worst thing is that it is good to "borrow" a piece of holy land from the Dawn Church and set up the "dojo" of the Buddha religion first.
Although, before going to the Holy Land of the Dawn Church and meeting with Bartley and the others, of course, the monks of the Buddha did not know the true origin of Bartley and the others, and they did not even know the names of these people. But those, for their intentions, is not a big deal, and what does it matter who the other party is, and those who take refuge in our Buddha are the ones who have enlightened the teachings.
So, it didn't take long for several great monks who came to preach this time to come to the holy place of the Dawn Church.
Hearing that they had always come to visit before the Buddha, Bartley and the others naturally did not dare to slack off, and only sent a message to Ye Zan's side to inform them, and at the same time welcomed those great monks into the holy land.
"I look at this Taoist friend, it seems that he is not from my world, it seems that the purpose of today's coming here will not be any surprise. After meeting Bartley and the others, a great monk communicated with his companions.
"Well, and, it can be seen that there is no prohibition on them, and they should all be free people. The great monk next to him also nodded in response.
Bartley and the others, although they all came out of the small world, Yezan had completely given them freedom. In other words, although Ye Zan is the master of the small world, he can no longer control the life and death of Bartley and others. As the monks of Shakyo speculated, the relationship between Yetzan and Bartley and others was more of a cooperative relationship than a subordinate relationship.
The only thing that Bartley and the others rely on is that they need to replenish the power consumed from the small world, just like Ye Zan and they need to replenish their mana from the cultivation world. But this situation is not enough for Ye Zan to fully master Bartley and the others, after all, they can choose to replenish their strength, or they can choose not to replenish their strength, anyway, they will not die if they save a little use.
Therefore, the relationship between Yetzan and Bartley and others is a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship.
And the several great monks who came this time were all Faxiang-level cultivators, so they naturally saw the details of Bartley and the others at a glance, and at the same time, they were more confident in this trip.
"A few Zen masters have come from afar, I don't know what to do, but do you need our help in the name of the church?" After each of them took their seats, Bartley first asked a few great monks.
In Bartley's mind, he and others were in control of the Dawn Church, and the only help for these people who came from the monastic world to "preach" was to endorse in the name of the church. For example, the cultivators of the previous sects were given the false identity of the "Institute of Prehistoric Civilization" by the church, so they were able to preach freely in the Dawn World.
And these monks of the Dawn Sect, when they first came to the Dawn World, did not immediately come to the Dawn Church to ask for a false identity. Fortunately, after the "baptism" of many cultivators before, the natives of the Dawn World have formed an instinct, instinctively treating these special people as members of the church. Therefore, when it comes to the monks, as long as they do not deliberately dissociate themselves from the church, no one will suspect that they are from outside the world.
"Well, I'm waiting here, it's true that I have something to bother Daoists, but after seeing a few Daoists, I have other ideas. A great monk said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, I haven't asked for advice yet, I don't know what this Zen master is called?" asked Bartley rather modestly to the great monk.
"The poor monk's name is widely known!" the great monk replied with a smile undiminished.
"Oh, Zen Master Guangwen, I don't quite understand what the Zen Master just said, if you need our help, please just say it. Although Bartley has lived in the monastic world for many years, he is still not used to and does not like the politeness of the clouds and mountains in the monastic world. Therefore, after asking the other party's name, he was even more direct and asked what the other party was about.
"Don't worry, the poor monk wants to ask more about the Taoist friends before talking about what he wants, I don't know what the relationship between the few Taoist friends here is with the Wuji Taoist friends, and whether there is any relationship with the Yuqing Sect?" Since he planned to dig the corner of the wall, he naturally wanted to inquire about the bottom of the corner, so as not to make the corner too hard and break the hoe.
Hearing the other party's inquiry, Bartley was also quite puzzled here, if the other party wanted to let him help, it would be good to say what he wanted to help, what was the point of asking these questions? However, he was not impatient, after all, the other party's explanation was not easy to offend, so he picked up what he could say and replied: "We are friends with Wuji Dao, but we are close friends, and we have received great favors from Wuji Daoists before. This time, Wuji Daoist friends came to the Dawn World to preach, and I waited for them to rely on them, and came with them, only making some efforts where they could be used. ”
Bartley is not stupid, and of course he will not talk about the small world, so he only talks about it with a little vagueness. Anyway, what he said was not to deceive the other party, he and the others were able to leave the small world, and it was indeed a favor from Ye Zan. And on the side of the Dawn World, they are not working hard for Ye Zan in vain, and like those cultivators, they can get certain benefits.
"I see, I just don't know ......" Monk Guangwen was about to continue talking, thinking about bringing the conversation to the aspect of taking refuge.
However, at this moment, in the room where everyone was, there was a sudden ripple in the space in the middle, and then Ye Zan walked out of the ripple.
"Hehe, a few great monks don't go to preach, how do you think about this church? Could it be that a few people think that this Dawn Church has a fate with your interpretation?" Ye Zan said unceremoniously in the face of several monks after walking out of the ripples.
Ye Zan had long been on guard against Shakti's ability to dig into the corners, and he didn't want a few monks to talk too much to Bartley at all.
