Chapter Twenty-Five: My Heart Is Ready to Be Happy
Jiang Liu's answer was not ordinary decisive, he blurted out instantly, without the slightest hesitation, extremely resolute, I don't want to, I won't go!
In an instant, everyone was shocked, Li Shimin, Princess Changle, and the old eunuch in the congenital stage.
Lord Li has already changed color, and he dares to refuse the emperor, he still feels very good about Jiang Liu, afraid that he will annoy His Majesty, and he is eager to give Jiang Liu a look, hinting.
Jiang Liu saw it, but didn't pay any attention to it.
Seeing that everyone was speechless in shock, he said: "Your Majesty, although it is a good thing to seek the true scriptures, it can suppress demons, and it can promote Buddhism to open up wisdom for the people of the world." It's not that I don't want to, it's that I'm not suitable at all!"
"I took the vows of meat and alcohol, and I wanted to marry a wife and have children, and I also killed people. I have triggered a lot of Buddhist precepts, and if you ask me to go, it is actually a great disrespect for the Buddha. And I'm already planning to return to Shimen Pure Land Temple in a while. Now I am studying Taoism, and I plan to join the Taoist faction. ”
"There are so many monks in the Tang Dynasty, there must be something more suitable. If you really can't find it, no, I have an uncle, for Fahai, a monk who has attained the Tao and is a person of great Buddha fate, so it's good to ask him to go. ”
Jiang Liu's words were like a thunderclap on the ground, which directly shocked several people, and they didn't know what to say with their mouths wide open.
In fact, Jiang Liu really wanted to ask, why did the Buddha already know about the monster, why didn't he just kill the monster? The Buddhist scriptures can, why not directly transmit the Dharma in a dream? Send it directly with great mana, why do you have to go all the way through the tribulation?
Jiang Liu knew that this was a phenomenon of the weakness of the human race, and that the status of the Three Realms had become unequal. Jiang Liu didn't ask Li Shimin, and even if he did, he couldn't answer it at all, and even if he knew that the answer could be answered, he didn't dare to answer.
"Your Majesty, why don't you set up a martial arts hall, spread martial arts to the world, spread the law to the world, and teach without class. Improve the overall physical cultivation of my Datang people, and when the time comes, everyone in my Datang will be like a dragon.
These people are all thinking of your goodness, and they all work for my Datang, why worry that Datang is not prosperous, and when the time comes, the monsters will be destroyed. Jiang Liu suggested with a very sincere expression.
Li Shimin's face softened slightly, sighed silently, and said in a deep voice: "I, I can see it, I know that you are a pious and pure heart, for the good of the Tang Dynasty." But there are some things you don't understand, so it's okay, I'm looking for other holy monks. ”
As if remembering something again, he said to the river:
"By the way, in the next few days, the Taoists will set up a formation, and for the monsters in the underground palace, use the purple gold gossip formation to strengthen the seal. And establish the Taiqing view with the yang eye, and the yin eye I want to build a great mercy and grace temple, and also look at Master Xuanzang, and then preside over the supervision of one or two. ”
"Xuanzang obeys the order!" just refused an order, and accepted this river, otherwise it would be too bad to give Tang Wang face.
For what Li Shimin said that he doesn't understand, Jiang Liu also understands a little. Everyone practices martial arts, and there are endless hidden dangers. Nowadays, the various sects are due to the cultivation of strong people, and the imperial power is already unstable, if you practice martial arts, everyone is like a dragon, and the imperial power will be even more unstable at that time, and it is likely to be destroyed.
Therefore, Li Shimin even planned to let fewer people cultivate, so he planned to vigorously develop Buddhism and slightly resist the trend of Taoism.
But throughout the ages, how can there be a strong person who is strong because others continue to become weaker, and he is strong. It's not all invincible to become strong. The dynasty is constantly getting stronger, and it is not impossible to become an immortal dynasty.
After a while, Jiang Liu left directly after receiving many medicinal materials such as Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, etc...
Jiang Liu walked on the road and looked at the whole Chang'an, no wonder there is no Great Ci'en Temple in Chang'an now, it turned out to be like this. There is a yin eye below.,Suppress monsters.,That's why it was built back and forth many times later.。
Since he is in charge of the overseer, how many floors should he build? Floor 5 is definitely too low, and although 9 is a very high number, floor 9 is also slightly lower. In ancient times, there were thirty-three layers of heaven, and if you built 34 floors by yourself, it should be very good, but will there be taboos in that way, and you will be punished by God or something.
Forget it, forget it, until the strength is not enough, let's keep a low profile. Only by secretly developing can we live for a long time, and we must not wave. This is a world of mythology.
Since this is the case, then the foundation of the underground, the tower body of three layers, but also in line with the Tao of one, one life three, three lives of all things to the rhyme. Then I was in the body of the tower, adding some Dharma golden lotus, Sanskrit is enough.
Li Jingfu, who was on the edge of the river, looked behind him and had already walked out of the palace. Hurriedly whispered: "Master Xuanzang, I really pinched a cold sweat for you, you scared me to death, how can you contradict the emperor." That's a big disrespect. Why do you refuse to do such a good thing?"
"It's okay, I'm not a contradiction, I'm really not suitable, I don't dare to deceive! I really plan to return to the layman, no, I've always been half a monk, and I've always been a lay disciple. Jiang Liu explained for Li Jingfu.
Li Jingfu wanted to say something several times, but he didn't say it.
Jiang Liu shook his head, didn't speak, and couldn't explain to him for a while, as for why?
If you tell me to go, I'll go, and I won't go. Let your benefits be like a mountain, and I am happy to buy them. And when I say this, you are persecuting me, and you are disrespecting the Buddha.
The most important thing is that if it is the law of the Tang Dynasty today, the law is not as good as the sect, and the law is not as good as the sect, so it is a big deal to return to the sect by yourself.
may be related to Jiang Liu's character, he is a casual person, he doesn't like others to arrange a set route, he wants to go his own way, even if it is a dead end. That's why I worked hard to obtain the Taoist method. Seek the Taoist immortals, and be at ease.
His strength is enough, and he can directly destroy the ancient monsters under Chang'an. For the benefit of the people, it is enough to directly teach the Fa to the world by himself, improve the foundation of the human race, and stand among the endless monsters of the wilderness. Better do it than wish it done.
For the vigorous construction of Buddhist temples, Jiang Liu knows that this is a means of balance. Today, Taoism is dominant, and Confucianism and Buddhism are weak. The emperor wanted to balance the side, restrict Taoism, and give himself more rights.
For example, today, the law is inferior to the sect, and the law is inferior to the teaching. This is not just talk. Although the imperial power is large, in this world, everything is about the supremacy of strength, and Datang can even be said to be a slightly larger sect.
Jiangliu's Shimen Pure Land Temple, where incense is offered, has always been self-collected and taxed? What is that? I have never heard of. In the territory of Datang, all sects and sects have hidden inheritances.
Some have even been inherited for thousands of years, and there will be new ones after the Tang Dynasty is destroyed, while the great heritage of the sect is still there.
As for their strength, Datang doesn't know, and for many of them, they can't move, or even dare not move at all. Therefore, Jiang Liu dared to say these words, he was a famous teacher, and he could be regarded as a Buddha in the lower and lower mountains among the three generations of disciples, and he was also considered by the Tang Dynasty.
Even if Li Shimin doesn't like what he says, he won't move himself.
Jiang Liu did not return to Ying Longwei's residence directly, and went directly to his Hongfu Temple. Jiang Liu felt a sense of crisis, he was going to retreat to recuperate from his injuries and cultivate, and he would never leave the customs until he entered the day after tomorrow.
