Time flies, flowers bloom and fall, and four years have passed in a blink of an eye.

After Li You entered the depths of the Taiyin Star, he was silent again, and this time it was four years.

In the past four years, according to the strategy decided with Li You that day, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin began to vigorously promote the sages of the human race, the three emperors and five emperors, and the hundred schools of thought, etc., so that the belief of hundreds of millions of people in gods and Buddhas was greatly reduced.

Li Shimin arranged many storytellers, organized various memorial ceremonies, and other means emerged one after another.

During this time, people have a clearer understanding of the Terran sages, their merits, and their contributions to the entire Terran race.

This has led to many people no longer worshipping gods and Buddhas in their homes, but instead replacing them with incense positions of the sages of the human race!

Of course, there are many more people who worship the immortals, gods, Buddhas, saints and the sages of the human race, juxtaposing the two!

Li Shimin was unequivocal, and directly built the sculptures of the sages everywhere, which were more majestic and extraordinary than the statues of gods and Buddhas in the past.

The result of this is that the luck of the Heavenly Court and the Buddha Gate has suddenly decreased by half!

Although the general reverence of the human race for the gods and Buddhas has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is difficult to really change it for a while, and it cannot hurt the foundation of the two major forces, but this is also a provocative thing after all, and it is intolerable to the high gods.

Especially now that Li Shimin has begun to weaken the influence of the Immortal Buddha on the human race.

The emperor seemed to be a little impatient, and he gradually began to rectify the Taoist temples and temples in various places, so that many places of incense worship were affected, and countless black materials were dug up.

The emperor took advantage of these appalling scandals to further deteriorate people's senses of the gods and Buddhas.

For example, in a certain Taoist temple, there is a Taoist priest who kills people and sets fires.

In a certain Buddhist temple, there were monks who raped and plundered, colluded with bandits, secretly robbed people with no background, and also broke into the homes of ordinary people, and the few belongings were robbed.

And so on and so forth, there are countless such things, it is simply terrifying, and it is filthy to the extreme!

It even caused many hot-blooded people to angrily smash these places where filth and dirt are hidden!

----------

On this day, the dark waves are turbulent, and there are torrents hidden under the calm.

Heavenly Treasure Palace.

The Jade Emperor sits on the throne of heaven and earth, and the Lingxiao Treasure Hall below is also full of fairy shadows, and the immortal aura is full of immortal energy in the majestic hall that has not changed for thousands of years, and there is a white-clothed figure standing on the white lotus, standing calmly among the gods.

This figure has a ** De Jinlun behind his head, a little red in the middle of his forehead, his face is stunning, his posture is graceful, and his expression is full of compassion, it is Guanyin Bodhisattva of the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea!

A grand and majestic voice sounded, "Venerable Guanyin, now that the Journey to the West is at a critical moment, what did the Buddha actually let you come here in person?"

The gods and immortals separated from the middle, and at this time, they were all looking at Guanyin.

She said calmly: "The Great Heavenly Venerable and all the fellow Daoists must have already felt the loss of Heavenly Court's luck, and the Buddha Sect is naturally the same. ”

"This matter was caused by the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, and it was for this reason that the poor monk came!"

The Jade Emperor sneered, "Buddhism has always acted neatly, and this little matter still needs to be discussed in Heavenly Court?"

"If it's just the Tang Emperor, naturally there is no need for this. But there are cultivators in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty who can defeat the five directions to reveal the truth......"

Speaking of this, her bright eyes couldn't help but be in a trance.

After parting in the Batu Caves four years ago, she didn't know what she thought, and she didn't report Li You's matter to the Buddha, maybe because the threat had an effect......

Guanyin took a deep breath, calmed down the messy mind, and continued:

"Tang Emperor Li Shimin has always been stable, and all of a sudden he acted like this, presumably because of this monk!"

"Oh, is that so?"

The Jade Emperor couldn't help but calm down.

The five directions are all characters in the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, proficient in Buddhism, if you want to defeat them easily, you must at least be a strong person at the peak level of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

For example, the brother-in-law of the Jade Emperor, Guan Jiangkou Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun Yang Jian......

Now that such a strong man has appeared in the human race, and his heavenly court knows nothing?

The Jade Emperor's face was unhappy, "Your Buddhism is powerful, isn't it easy to deal with a little Taiyi Golden Immortal?"

Guanyin knew that the Jade Emperor thought that Buddhism was huge, and he was not happy to understand this information before Heavenly Court.

"Da Tianzun didn't know, this person suddenly appeared to interfere in the matter of the journey to the west, and the Buddha sent the five parties to investigate, but he was easily defeated by him, and he almost failed to return to Lingshan!"

"What? It's so powerful?"

The Jade Emperor looked shocked.

"Great Tianzun, this matter is not only like this, this monk instigated the Tang Emperor to clean up the Dao Buddha, causing the luck of the Heavenly Court and the Spirit Mountain to drop greatly, its harm is too great, and it should be measured!"

Guanyin's expression was calm, but there seemed to be different fluctuations in the depths of his eyes, and there seemed to be a little wave in his heart.

"What does Venerable mean by this?" the Jade Emperor said thoughtfully.

"A Taiyi Golden Immortal, although his combat power is good, he has not reached the level of Da Luo Golden Immortal after all. ”

"What the Buddha means is that I, Lingshan Manjushri Bodhisattva, will lead the eighteen Arhats to subdue the demons, hoping that the Great Heavenly Venerable can send heavenly soldiers and generals to provide a little support!"

After saying that, Guanyin stood quietly in place, waiting for a reply.

Does this mean to show off your might, to show the profound heritage and strong strength of Buddhism?

The Jade Emperor secretly speculated in his heart about Guanyin's intention to go to heaven this time, and always felt that the West had bad intentions this time!

At the beginning, Sun Wukong made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, but he had already lost the face of Heaven and even Xuanmen, so he couldn't make jokes again.

However, he also paid attention to what happened in Datang recently, and it was impossible to escape the eye of heaven, and many big actions in the nether realm affected the mind of this co-master of heaven and earth.

But it can't be interfered with directly, after all, the emperor is in charge of the human race.

He didn't want to interfere unless it was necessary, and he didn't bother to care about those trivial things.

But paradoxically, the human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth today, and the luck is abundant, and the heavenly court must also pay attention to the human race and keep planning.

Therefore, he decided to obey the will of the Buddha, no matter what, the luck of the heavenly court cannot be damaged, and that little Taiyi Golden Immortal also has to be educated!

"In that case, I can't let His Holiness come in vain. ”

"When the time comes, we will send 100,000 heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, plus Li Jing, the Heavenly King of Tota, and the four generals of the Demon Family to help out!"

Guanyin suddenly relaxed, smiled and said, "Amitabha, good, good." ”

"The poor monk thanked the Great Heavenly Venerable for the Buddha. ”

The Jade Emperor also nodded.

With this happening, the plan for Chang'an City was thus decided, and the prelude to the coming storm began!
