Ordinary people are ignorant and not strong-willed, and they are not suitable for cultivating Buddhism's holy arts, but they have the advantage of being easy to control and having a large number of people. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Buddha and the king of the country of the country reached an agreement, promising to give the king of the country of the country safe protection, to give him a hundred lifetimes of wealth, in exchange for the status of the state religion of the Buddha, and the belief of all the people in the world in the Buddha, from the results of the view, this trick is really very clever.

After Buddhism gained a firm foothold, no matter how the king of the People's Kingdom changed, the new leader had to vigorously curry favor with the Buddhism and respect the status of the Buddhism as the state religion, otherwise the regime would not be sustainable, and the Buddhism became extremely powerful because of the support of millions of people.

Over the past 1,000 years, the dynasty has changed endlessly, more and more temples have been built, believers have come from all over the world, and the status of Buddhism has gradually climbed to the top. Under these circumstances, Buddhism became more closely related to the government and the local gentry, and together they governed the vast country and ruled over the vast number of people. The monks of Huayan Temple, Shen Fei, have seen it with their own eyes, they are helpful, work hard to cultivate, and accumulate good fortune for the next life, these people should be said to be on the side of the ordinary people, the purpose of their behavior is to help the ordinary people stay away from suffering, to accumulate good fortune for themselves, it can be said that they stand on the opposite side of the local gentry and local bureaucrats, these people who exploit the common people are a group; over time, there is a natural estrangement between the rulers of the human state, and continue to develop and then produce confrontation, there is no doubt that Buddhism is not afraid of the human state, but coexistence with the human political system is the interest of the Buddha, and Buddhism does not want to replace the human country, directly rule the worldTo rule over these ignorant people, the deepening of confrontation is not what they want.

In order to solve this problem, it is indispensable to appear such Buddhist scum as Changzang monks, who are actually specially used to deal with the ruling forces of the human world.

Take the example of a monk Changzang, who was born a scoundrel in the market, but was accepted as a disciple by a high-ranking monk who was the same as the presiding monk of Huayan Temple, why? Because scoundrels have the benefits and usefulness of scoundrels, only such scoundrels can deal with the local gentry and government without suffering losses, and can squeeze out the oil and water from them without affecting the relationship between Buddhism and the rulers of the world.

According to Shen Fei's speculation, it is estimated that whenever there is a shortage of incense money in the temple, a lack of food, clothing, housing and transportation, or no relief food for virtue and good deeds, the presiding officer of Huayan Temple will hand over the task of asking for food and clothing to Changzang monk to do, and only a wicked person like Changzang monk can really complete this task well, his existence is very necessary, and the attitude of the temple towards him has become tolerant, allowing him to have many privileges.

And the monk Changzang himself was secretly instructed by the temple, in the confrontation with the human forces again and again, accumulated his own contacts and methods, and cultivated a more arrogant and domineering personality, and finally came to this point.

So the monk is actually the scapegoat of the temple, that's all!

Xiao Er, who only looks at the superficial phenomenon, does not understand the hidden situation, but sees it through his eyes, and judges that the monk Changzang may take over the position of the presiding officer of Huayan Temple, but in fact, this is not possible at all. Compared with the fairy road, the temple may be closer to the world, close to the common people, but it is still transcendental, which can be seen from the fact that Huayan Temple was built outside the city of Ruyang and only opened twice a week. The things done in the temple are all good things, such as looking at the faces of ordinary people, seeking marriage, solving spiritual confusion, providing food to solve the problem of hunger, etc., in short, all good things.

The good things done in these temples need material support, and the rulers who benefit from the exploitation of the people are equivalent to using their majesty to grab meat directly from the bowls of the rulers of the world, and this behavior will inevitably cause the disgust of the rulers, and it will inevitably lead to the confrontation between the rulers of Buddhism and the rulers within the world to a certain extent, therefore, the Buddhism elects a person who is extremely guilty from within itself to threaten the rulers of the world, and gradually colludes with them in the process, thus forming the current pattern of Ruyang City, which is the meaning of the existence of Changzang monks。

After visiting Cuilanxuan, Huayan Temple, and Ruyang City and County Ya, Shen Fei felt that he had almost explored the model of the operation of the Buddha Kingdom in Ruyang City. Knowing his enemies was the first step in his missionary journey, because knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent was the key to victory.

Under the auspices of the current Yellow Emperor Tuoba Ye, the empire has implemented a policy of valuing commerce and agriculture for ten consecutive years, reducing and reducing taxes, which makes the people's lives relatively maintainable, and the merchants and gentry make a lot of money, and the government continues to be weak. In such cases, local forces are particularly strong and often dominate.

Shen Fei, the boss of Cui Lanxuan, has never seen it yet, he actually wants to meet this person, and he must be a very remarkable person to be able to host that show in such a remote city for nearly twenty years.

Walking slowly forward, Shen Fei observed the people around him attentively, saw a lot of carriages pulling huge boxes, and knew that it was not far from the start of the show, so he walked quickly towards Cuilanxuan.

He was still far away, but he had already heard the angry roar of Monk Changzang: "Why, why, what the hell is going on?"

Walking to the door to watch, seeing that Cuilanxuan had ceased business, the staff, including the old bustard, hid at the door from afar. Wooden chairs and porcelain jars kept flying down from the third floor, smashing to pieces, and it should be that the monk Changzang was going crazy.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Fei saw the handsome little second brother and patted him on the shoulder and asked.

The latter turned around impatiently, and when he saw that it was Shen Fei, he immediately put on a smiling face, and shouted, "Dao Master." ”

Shen Fei motioned for him to be silent, stretched out his hand, and pulled him outside: "What's the matter?"

"I don't know, as soon as I came, I couldn't wait to catch a little girl and go up to the third floor, and then I was furious, threw things, and dug the ground, and it was estimated that the girl would not survive. The little second brother replied truthfully.

"Got it. Shen Fei nodded. Intuition told him that Monk Changzang was so angry, it must have something to do with the shot of the clothed guest, and when he thought about it, his shot was so fast that he and Monk Changzang didn't notice it at all, and his strength was really powerful.

"Go back. Shen Fei sent the little second brother away, raised his head, looked at the height of Cuilanxuan, looked at the closed doors and windows and smiled faintly, went around to the back of the restaurant, changed into clothes that he didn't wear on weekdays, covered his face with silk, and went up to the top floor.

The fourth floor of Cui Lanxuan has always been closed, and it will only be opened when the show is performing, and Shen Fei is curious about it.

On the fourth floor, climbing the outer edge of the window, Shen Fei probed the immortal power in, and found that in the huge empty room, there was a person sitting very quietly, the windows and doors on all sides of the room were closed, and there were no candles lit, which Shen Fei was very sure of, but someone was sitting in it silently, did it prove that this person was not normal, or was he enjoying the loneliness to the fullest?

Shen Fei felt incredible, because the monk Changzang, who was only one layer away from this person, was yelling.

The boss of Cui Lanxuan is really a weirdo! Shen Fei hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to leave.

Changed his clothes, returned to the front door, listened to the sound of Monk Changzang yelling, and saw the little girl who was too frightened and ran out of her clothes intact, Shen Fei felt a little surprised, and said in his heart Monk Changzang What is going on?

But I heard the other party roaring angrily: "Why, why, why is this!"

Monk Changzang was furious: "Old bustard, come here, quickly roll over for me." ”

"Holy monk, ...... are you" The old bustard was very scared of Chang Zang, and he was reluctant to do a hundred things in his heart, but the other party had already spoken, so what could he do, and he said fiercely to the little girl who escaped from the hands of Chang Zang: "You dead girl, how did you offend the holy monk, come truthfully, see how I will clean you up later!"

"Mom, I didn't do anything, it's him ......"

"Boom!" The coffee table was thrown down from the third floor, shattered, and the monk Changzang roared: "Come up for me!"

The old bustard was frightened, and said in his heart: What is the matter with the holy monk, why did he suddenly move the wrath of thunder.

He glanced at the girl viciously again, went upstairs, and walked into the house, everyone only heard a "bang", and the monk closed the door angrily. I could no longer hear what the two of them were talking about in the house, nor could I see what they were doing.

The crowd privately discussed: "You say that the bustard's life will not be in danger, right?" ”

"Hey, little girl, what did you do to the holy monk to make him so angry. ”

"It's okay with me. The little girl said tremblingly.

"How could it be okay. ”

"It really doesn't matter. The little girl trembled, "I didn't do anything, it was him who ......" The little girl's words seemed to be heard by the monk Changzang, the door was slammed open again, and the bed flew out entirely: "If you don't want to die, just shut up Lao Tzu!"

Monk Changzang's hand suddenly softened, which also surprised everyone, "Old bustard, go quickly, bring the things, and do what I say." ”

"Holy monk, don't worry, I will do everything according to what you say. The old bustard came out intact, but his actions were sneaky, and the smile on his face looked a little weird, looking like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and everyone didn't know why.

With Shen Fei's keen mind, he couldn't tell which one they were singing, and he said in his heart, what happened to Monk Changzang? Why did he suddenly look yin and yang? Yu Guang swept to the corner of the street, and the figure of the clothed guest immediately walked over. The clothed guest seemed to be waiting for him intentionally, and when he saw Shen Fei finding himself, he turned around and walked forward, leading Shen Fei into an inn one after the other.

There are not many people in the inn, the restaurant on the first floor, the accommodation on the second floor, Xiao Er saw the guests enter the door, and wanted to lead to a position with a wide view by the window, but the guest walked straight to the shadow of the corner, Shen Fei followed his heels, went in together, and sat opposite him.

"A bowl of noodles. "The cloth guest asked for food.

"One more bowl. Shen Fei followed.

"Okay!" the little second brother ran out.

Shen Fei arched his hand to him: "Dare to ask the senior, but is it Chaohua Peak Scattered Immortal Wang Shuo?"

"Yes and no. The clothes guest's gaze came out of the hat, blazing, in stark contrast to the down-and-out beard, which reminded Shen Fei of Uncle Yun, who was once so down-and-out that he was accompanied by wine every day.

"Yes is yes, no is no. Shen Fei said.

"A good yes is yes, no is no. Lingyike's eyes changed, "You are Li Yizhi's disciple!"

Shen Fei was stunned by his question, and asked him so rhetorically, which really took him into the army.

"Noodles are coming!" Fortunately, the little second brother came over in time, which temporarily alleviated his embarrassment, "Two bowls of noodles, guest officer, your two things are ready." ”

"Thanks, go ahead. Shen Fei threw some copper coins to him, "Don't bother us if it's not a big deal." ”

The second brother accepted the copper coin and replied happily: "Okay, you are discouraged." Then he left.

Shen Fei waited for him to leave, and arched his hand towards the clothed guest: "Sure enough, it is Wang Shuo's senior, Shen has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he is polite here." ”

"How can you tell that I am Wang Shuo?" asked the clothed guest.

"I can easily see that my master must be a person who is familiar with the main peak of the master, and Ruoxue once told me that Wang Shuo's predecessor once competed with Yin Qiushui, and he was the son of the former peak master of Chaohua Peak. ”

"It turns out that the little girl is Nalan Ruoxue, the daughter of Mingzhu, no wonder she feels familiar. After so many years, her eyes are still as clear as when she was a child, and she and her mother are really completely different types. As a scattered immortal, Lingyike said bluntly, "That's right, I am Wang Shuo, Wang Shuo, who fought with Yin Qiushui for the position of the peak master of Chaohua Peak twenty years ago and failed to leave the main peak. ”

"Seniors, please bow to Shen Fei. Shen Fei knelt down and kowtowed in front of so many people, which really made Wang Shuo unexpected, and he was stunned for a short time, and then said with a wry smile: "You know that I am a failure, why do you have to do this......

If you want to talk about sycophants and please these seniors, then there is really no one who can catch up with Shen Fei, he kowtowed three times in a row, did not stand up, and ignored the gazes of the people around him, looked up at Lingyi Ke and said: "Since it is a senior in Shushan, there is no such thing as failure or not." ”

"Hehe, get up, there are so many people watching, we need to be careful. Seeing that Shen Fei still didn't get up, the cloth guest supported him with his own hands, and then he helped him up.

The two sat down again, Shen Fei turned his head sideways, and his eyes swept over the spectators at his table, who lowered their heads one after another, and didn't dare to look at him anymore, and then said, "Senior, you came to Ruyang City, but for that special program?"

"Don't ask me just yet. The clothed guest leaned forward, "I heard by chance that the head of the sect personally ordered a disciple to go down the mountain to preach, but is there such a thing?"
