153 More than is lost to make up for what is lacking

An Luoyi knelt on the ground, kneeled in front of Liang Xingyang, and almost pleaded, "Master! Now those believers ...... It really can't be without the Golden Lantern Sect, those rich people, without the Golden Lantern Sect, they can do something else, set up birds, walk dogs, fight crickets, they can convert to other religions, it doesn't matter. But the poor can't, many of them are sick, disabled, and poor......

In some families, her parents are sick in bed, and a girl has to take care of her parents at the top and pull her ignorant younger brother at the bottom, and she lives on the Golden Lantern Church. She told me that it was the golden lantern that gave her hope to live, bringing her light and warmth, otherwise she would have died a few years ago! She couldn't live. There are many, many of them, Master, once the Golden Lantern Sect is gone, there will be tens of thousands of resentful souls on the land of Jiangnan immediately!"

Liang Xingyang listened quietly and did not answer, as if in deep thought.

Seeing that he heard this, An Luoyi hurriedly said, "And our Dharma masters, whether they were originally from the sect leader sect or cultivated by us, once we are gone, they will not disperse, and they will definitely form a new tribe, and when the time comes, it will be a situation where the various branches under the Golden Lantern Sect are divided, and then the Jiangnan region will be even more chaotic!"

He took a few steps back, and then kowtowed to Liang Xingyang: "Master, really, I didn't have the slightest selfishness in saying this! I can come to the mountains to cultivate with you without being the sect leader, but you must send another person to hold on, the golden lamp cannot be extinguished, and once the golden lamp is extinguished, the hearts of millions of people will die! Master! I beg you!"

Liang Xingyang stretched out his hand to help him up and said to him, "I'm worried that you will become like the Golden Lantern Sect Master in the past, and the dragon slaying boy will eventually become an evil dragon. To be the leader of the Golden Lantern Sect, to be supported by thousands of people, to have fame and power, and to get the power of wishes, to obtain supernatural powers, this temptation ......."

"Master!" An Luoyi hurriedly said, "I'm not from a poor family, my family is already very rich, and it's not difficult for me to get an official and a half-job. What name, what power, what supernatural powers, I don't want, what I want is to fight the sword world, happy revenge! Master, if you don't believe me, I'm willing to die, but please send someone else to take charge of the Golden Lantern Sect!"

As he spoke, he summoned the Bronze Sparrow Sword, and Liang Xingyang grabbed the sword: "Bastard thing! Who told you to cut yourself?"

He threw his sword on the ground and made him sit on the stone pier, and then sighed and said, "Those who practice the path of immortals, when they enter the way of the gods, it will be difficult for them to leave. Fame, fortune, money and power are at your fingertips, and the magic power of the other is not cultivated, but in fact, this is not the most difficult, the most rare is the emotional connection between you and the believer, the higher the mana, the deeper the entanglement, the more difficult it is to give up."

An Luoyi didn't know what he meant, and looked at him with a worried face, for fear that he would have to completely dissolve the Golden Lantern Sect.

"On the way back from the northwest, I thought, there are so many poor people in this world, the court is unreliable, the White Bone Sect is unreliable, who else can they rely on? Can we transform the Golden Lantern Sect into something that can be trusted?"

Hearing this, An Luoyi turned around, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes! Today, the tens of millions of Golden Lantern Sect disciples in Jiangnan rely on the Golden Lantern Holy Ancestor physically and mentally."

Liang Xingyang waved his hand to stop: "Golden Lantern Holy Ancestor, I won't do it anymore, you, Golden Lantern Sect Master, since you are willing, you can continue to do it."

"Master...... I ......."

Liang Xingyang asked him, "You say, where did all the gold and silver treasures in the Golden Lantern Sect in your Quyang Mansion come from?"

"It's all donated by believers."

"Yes, we cannot produce and create these things, all the money and food are earned by the believers and given to us, so what are we going to do with them when they are in our hands?"

"To give relief to the poor Christians."

"By the way, here's the key issue!" Liang Xingyang was very satisfied with this answer, "The way of man is not enough to give more than enough, and the way of heaven is more than enough to make up for the deficiency. In a collective, everyone will use their own rights in their respective positions to gain benefits for themselves, and take what others do not have enough to serve themselves. And the richer the rich, the greater the ability to loot and oppress the poor.

Over time, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, and the more you get to the end of the dynasty, the more wealth the rich have, the less wealth the poor have, and this is the human being

Road. What we have to do is to follow the way of heaven and take money and food out of the hands of the rich and send them to the poor, so that we can make up for the deficiency by losing more than we lose, and this is the foundation of governing the country, which can be set as the first principle of our teaching. Otherwise, we'll be just like the original Golden Lantern Master."

"The way of man is not enough to give more than enough. The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency." An Luoyi repeated it several times and nodded vigorously.

"Tao Te Ching" and "Nanhua Jing" have a lot of content on governing the country, and even more than self-cultivation, when Liang Xingyang was in the north, he was extremely desperate in his heart, but when he arrived in the south, he had hope again.

He is the "Golden Lantern Holy Ancestor", and the statues of the Holy Ancestors are placed in the main halls of the Golden Lantern Sects in the south of the Yangtze River, and in the more than a year since he disappeared, An Luoyi has also continued to repair the statue of the Holy Ancestor, and he does not want to snatch the power of faith from him as the sect leader.

The wishes of so many people continue to bless him, and he can feel the call of the believers and feel the psychological sustenance of the believers.

What he said earlier was more to test An Luoyi to see if he had the ability to follow the way of heaven.

If the mind is not good, there is no way to cultivate the gods, and the mind here not only refers to the effort of meditation, but also includes the faith in the heart, whether there is a large enough heart, whether there is compassion for the world, and whether there is a character that is not greedy for power, money, fame and fortune...... Without these as a foundation, sooner or later we will get lost in these infinite temptations, both external and internal, and we will inevitably fall into the devil's path!

To put it bluntly, virtue is not worthy, there will be disaster, virtue is ability, without the ability to control such a big fame and power, the result can only be madness first, and then to destruction, to yourself, to all the people who have a relationship, to bring devastating disasters!

If An Luoyi is not successful, he will call An Luoyi back and let Xia Cunxu be the leader, in fact, Xia Cunxu is also a good candidate, he was born as a prince, he has received an excellent education since he was a child, humanities and society, economics, are all clear.

However, judging from An Luoyi's performance, he is still quite good.

Liang Xingyang said, "When I first appeared as the Holy Ancestor of the Golden Lantern, I made an oath to myself, and after I eliminated the Sect Master of the Golden Lantern, I smashed all the statues of the Holy Ancestor by myself, returned to the mountains and forests, and followed the path of immortals, and never changed, this oath cannot be broken. After you go back, you will remove and destroy all the statues of the Holy Ancestor in the temple, and in the future, the faith and will of thousands of believers in Jiangnan will be put on you, and you will be a veritable Golden Lantern Sect Master!"

"Master!" An Luoyi is stupid, that's a lot of willingness! With just one sentence, at least 10 million believers can be mobilized to donate money and materials, and even sacrifice their lives! With these wishes, the primordial spirit can be extremely powerful, ascending to the sky, stepping on the earth, waving his hand, the wind and clouds surge, and the sky and the earth will crack! Liang Xingyang actually said that if you don't want it, you don't want it!

"Just do as I say." Liang Xingyang thought for a moment and said, "I also want to know, apart from my question, what will you do after you become the real Golden Lantern Sect Master in the future?"

An Luoyi said, "I will definitely abide by Master's teachings of 'making up for what is lacking.'"

"What should the rich do if they refuse to give in to the poor?"

"I have the blessings of thousands of believers, and I can do what I say, who can disobey?"

"Well, but what would you do if the rich people ran away?"

"Ran away?"

"Yes, the rich man has the secret recipe for alchemy, the blueprint of the refining weapon, the experience of domesticating demon beasts, and the ability to build a big ship at sea. What are you going to do if they all run away?"

"This ......" An Luoyi was stunned, and then humbly asked, "Master, what ...... How?"

"As a sect leader, you must have the highest level of alchemy secret recipes, the most advanced refining blueprints, and the most powerful animal taming experience...... You will be stronger and richer than them." Liang Xingyang said, "I think, whether poor or rich, if you really believe in you, then they are all your believers, our goal is not to kill all the rich, and in the end everyone will be poor together, but that the poor can also become rich, and eventually become rich. I can't explain the scale of this, as well as the specific means of operation, for a while, and I will have to explore it in practice in the future."

An Luoyi nodded: "Remember!"

"Finally, let me say one more thing. I haven't practiced true Shinto, I used to be a fellow practitioner of the immortals, but I was a believer in worship, and then I got the secret book of the Golden Lantern Sect and changed my perspective, but he was a cult after all. I fused the two and realized that you are the leader of the sect, and you should be comrades with your followers, with one heart and one mind, and it is good for you to walk with the same initiate.

For example, the two of us have the same ambition, so we naturally got together and did this great thing. Now you and I are working together to work out the next strategy and get things done together in the future. The so-called heart-to-heart, self-induction, never forgetting, there will be repercussions, all of which are the same. You can be of the same mind as your believers, so that you can empathize with what they are going through and know what they need.

In fact, on the other hand, if your believers are of the same heart with you, the will will will will be stronger, and the sense will be stronger. If you can understand this truth, it will be very helpful for you to run your religion in the future and for your Shinto practice. After you go back, you can use this as a foundation and compile another scripture for the believers, so that you can share the same wishes and fellow practitioners, and in the future, maybe you will really have the opportunity to enter the world full of immeasurable light together."

An Luoyi pondered, "Is there really a world of Elysium?"

Liang Xingyang smiled: "Isn't it over if you turn this world into a world of bliss?"

An Luoyi suddenly realized, and intuitively suddenly figured out a lot of questions, originally he was the Holy Son and the Sect Leader was also a fake, after the Battle of Phoenix, he became the Sect Leader, in charge of tens of millions of believers in Jiangnan, but his heart was still empty, because he had Liang Xingyang, and he had the Golden Lantern Holy Ancestor to rely on, and now Liang Xingyang provided him with an ideological foundation, which could be used as the foundation for him to officially cultivate his gods and officially become the leader of the Golden Lantern!

"Thank you, Master, for your advice! I understand!"

"Go ahead, take care of those who believe in you and are willing to go with you, I, the Golden Lantern Saint Ancestor, have always been illusory, and only the Dharma Manifestation has appeared two or three times. For them, you are real, you are more reliable than me, more suitable to rely on them, and more able to give them light and warmth." Liang Xingyang explained, "There is no need to give the money of the northern court, we have already given enough, and it is useless to give it again, it is better to use it to build bridges and roads, improve land, build schools, and do some practical things." The north is about to be in chaos, so you have to prepare early and send more people to Jiangbei to find out the news. In addition, there are the intertwined family sects in Jiangnan, and you come up with a complete plan to deal with them."

An Luoyi responded to all of them one by one, and then went back to Quyang City, before leaving, Liang Xingyang handed him the Tiangang Evil Diagram: "These families and sects in Jiangnan are all ruthless, greedy and ruthless, you have to be careful that they attack you, this picture will give you self-defense for the time being, and the one hundred and eight star gods above can also ...... I will be your protector."

An Luoyi left with Tiangang and Di Xuan, and after returning to Quyang City, he immediately began to make drastic reforms, first dismantling and destroying the statues of the Holy Ancestors in each sect one by one, replacing them with the statues of his sect leaders, and telling the believers that the female cadres in the sect in this world have been killed, and the Holy Ancestor has gone to other worlds, and the Holy Ancestor has been gone for tens of millions of years, everyone will practice hard, and meet the Holy Ancestor in the bright world in the future.

Many believers could not accept it, and they wept and went to the monastery to bow down and pray, "Even if the Holy Ancestor is gone, there is no need to take the statue of the Holy Ancestor away...... Just leave it here, and we'll continue to worship!"

A large number of believers guarded the statue of the Holy Ancestor, holding the statue of the gods, blocking the door frame, and preventing the warriors of the golden lantern from carrying the statue away.

When the Golden Lantern Warrior finally carried the statue of the Holy Ancestor outside, poured oil, and asked the Golden Lantern Master to set it on fire, some believers threw themselves on the statue of the Holy Ancestor, hugged it with open arms, and swore desperately to protect it.

So later, An Luoyi issued an order, changed to act at night, and quietly transferred the statue of the Holy Ancestor, originally he also wanted the believers to say goodbye to the Holy Ancestor, but now it can only be done in secret, and when the believers find out that the statue of the Holy Ancestor is gone, it is too late.

However, after a month's effort, all the statues of the Holy Ancestor in the academies in the south of the Yangtze River were demolished, and the statues of the sect leaders that were originally placed in the side hall or the front hall were moved to the original position of the Holy Ancestor statues.

However, many believers still have small statues of the Holy Ancestor in their homes, or half-foot statues, or one-foot statues, or busts, and they are afraid that they will be searched and destroyed, so they carefully hide them, and kneel in front of the statues at night to pray, and they must swear to the death

Protector of the Holy Ancestor.

There are also those families who left themselves on the walls of others when Liang Xingyang showed saints to save people, and they all built another wall outside to block the original wall inside, so as not to be demolished.

In fact, An Luoyi didn't care about that at all, he just demolished the big statue in the academy.

However, in the apse of the Quyang Mansion Academy, there is also a large statue, made of pure gold, as high as three zhang, ten arms, each pinching a different method, majestic, and solemn.

Whenever An Luoyi felt depressed, he would come here, kneel in front of the statue of ten hands, and meditate silently......

Just in front of this statue, he compiled another scripture, called "The Golden Lantern Holy Ancestor Says the Heavenly Way Sutra", which wrote the words "The Way of Heaven, the loss is more than enough to make up for the deficiency", and wrote that the Golden Lantern Sect Master made one hundred and eight grand wishes, the first of which is, May the world be full of light. The second is that all sentient beings may be free from their afflictions and enjoy bliss......
