Two days later, the Huiwen Hall was full, and under the auspices of Chai Rong, the king of Jin, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism each sent three people to participate in the debate, and others observed.

The three people sent by Confucianism were led by the scholar He Ning, supplemented by Cui Cheng and a great Confucian of the Confucian family.

Buddhism sent Master Kongyuan of Shaolin, the famous Zen monk Mingyi Zen Master, and Master Youtan of Baihua Mountain.

The lineup of Taoism is also strong, the twentieth generation of Shangqing Sect Master Cheng Yanzhao, the first generation of Gao Dao Xu Ziping, and Qingcheng Mountain Jingping Zhenren.

There are two main themes of the debate: first, the doctrine of the parties is superior or inferior, and this issue has been debated since the three religions were established, and it is doomed to be fruitless;

The theme of the second debate was the relationship between preaching and people's livelihood, as well as ethics and normalcy, and it was obvious that it was to determine which of the three religions was more conducive to the implementation of the national policy of the Great Zhou.

Confucianism has advocated entering the WTO to practice, self-cultivation, family harmony, and assisting the king to stabilize the society, which undoubtedly occupies a great advantage, which is also the reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism and Taoism.

Taoism advocates non-action, mainly cultivating one's own body, obeying the mandate of heaven, and not interfering in national politics and laws.

The three eminent monks of Buddhism expounded on the role of Buddhism in educating the people, which contributed to the stability of the country.

After each side made its own stance, the three sides attacked each other, and the main problem of Confucianism was that Confucianism used literature to disrupt the law; the main problem of Taoism was that it relied on martial arts and Taoism to disrupt order; the main aspect of Buddhism being attacked was that it did not regard morality, because the population had plummeted due to the war in the past century, and a large number of people had fled into the empty gate, which was not conducive to population growth; in addition, the various temples were crowding out land and not paying taxes to the state were also the targets of attack.

Among the three parties, Confucianism had the most correct attitude, saying that Confucianism did not play much role in troubled times and would act according to the rules; Taoist representatives also promised to restrain Taoist disciples from interfering in politics, and said that if the state was in need, they could assist the government to bring those Taoist people who committed misconduct to justice.

At this time, Tan Guohua sighed in his heart: these old monks still can't recognize the situation, King Jin is probably trying to find a reason to hold this debate, if they are willing to give in and make some concessions, then there is still room for redemption, otherwise it is certain that they will be severely sanctioned in the future, but he also knows very well that Shaolin will not die out.

At the end of the debate, the Taoist and Confucian families tacitly pointed the finger at Buddhism, and in the end, the only loser in this debate was Buddhism, and the results they would face can be imagined.

After the event, Cui Cheng implemented the function of joining the army in Huazhou, and stayed in Bianliang for half a month because he needed to raise a batch of grain and grass.

In the past half a month, Tan Guohua recited various scriptures and meanings on his head, and his pain was not over until Cui Cheng escorted the grain and grass on the road.

In fact, he went to Huazhou to pass through Huangchi County, but he had his own plans, so he didn't go home, but went all the way west and became a ranger.

In the last life, I read a lot of martial arts novels, he longed for the life of a ranger, hoping that one day he could carry his bags and wander around the world, and now that wish has finally come true, but there is always a gap between reality and ideals, not to mention sleeping in the open along the way, and will encounter various situations, especially now in troubled times, bandits are rampant, he walked for more than ten days, and he encountered two robbers, and the second bandit was enough to have hundreds, fortunately, he stepped on the snow without a trace and became more and more sophisticated, and ran more than ten miles to get rid of the bandits.

The most troublesome thing is to be sick, when walking in a wilderness, it rained heavily, and it was late, he ran for a long time, he didn't see a village, and finally dug a small cave under a mountain to avoid the rain, and he became ill at night, there was no medicine, even hot water, if it wasn't for the internal strength to get rid of the cold, maybe he would die in this wilderness.

After this lesson, when he passed through the town, he bought some finished potions, and asked the tailor to make a portable tent according to his design, and then spent five dollars to buy a gray donkey as a means of transportation.

On this day, he rode the small gray into the boundary of Xinzheng County, it was not early, if you rushed to the county seat, it may take half an hour, just next to the official road stood an inn called "Zhangjia Old Store", the flow of customers here is not large, but the business travel is not small, Tan Guohua felt a little hungry, so he was ready to stay for one night.

"Are you going to eat, or are you going to stay at the hotel?" came up to greet a woman in her thirties, with a rather bewitching figure, but her appearance was average, and her smile was a little exaggerated.

"Bring me a clean room, and get me some food, and the donkeys should be fed good fodder.1"

"Are you alone, or..."

"I'm the only one!"

"There is no one in the Tianzi room on the second floor, a hundred copper for one night, there is hot water, what do you want to eat for dinner?"

Tan Guohua didn't bargain with her, "Let's have three bowls of noodles, and then fry the dishes that you are good at!"

"Okay, master, three bowls of noodles, two specialty dishes!" the woman arranged the room, and then shouted downstairs.

Tan Guohua looked at the room, thought it was not bad, took another sip of tea, opened the window to breathe, and then waited for the food to be served.

Suddenly, he noticed through the window that there was movement in the firewood room in the backyard, it was already dark, and it was impossible to see with the naked eye, and the door of the firewood room was closed, but he had the eye of the sky to see things at night, and now his eye of the sky was a little farther away, and he could just observe the situation in the firewood room.

Out of curiosity and caution, he began to look up, and found that a well-dressed young man had been thrown to the ground with a rag in his mouth.

Seeing such a situation, although he couldn't judge that this must be a black shop, he didn't dare to take it lightly, poured out the tea he had drunk, waited for the food to be delivered, sent the proprietress away, closed the door but ate dry food, and did not forget to pay attention to the door.

As he expected, after a while, the proprietress quietly went upstairs and eavesdropped on the movement outside the door.

By this time, everything was obvious, and he gently poured out some of the food and pretended to be unconscious.

"Guest, would you like to get some more tea?"

There was no reaction for a long time, the proprietress opened the door, twisted her waist and walked over, patted Tan Guohua's shoulder first, and found that there was no response, so she became bold, and at this time, a stout man with a full face also walked in, "Hun family, have you succeeded?"

"Well, I don't know whose child it is, let it out as a ranger at such a young age!"

"Hehe, the more rookies, the better, I'll deal with this and the firewood room later!"

"Let's see how much money this kid is carrying!"

One of the two was responsible for inspecting the package and the other was searching.

With a "poof", the man who was about to search his body showed an unbelievable look on his face, and at the same time, his pupils dilated.

The woman was about to turn around when she heard the movement, a finger was poking at the Fengchi acupoint behind her head, and the person fainted on the spot, this is the method of winding the silk acupoint, otherwise, Tan Guohua could only knock him unconscious with a heavy fist.

After tying up the woman, he did not interrogate her, but searched inside and outside the shop, and found only a few scattered pieces of money at the counter, no more than two or three times in total, and he did not believe that this was the only thing in the dark shop.

So he used the eye of heaven again, searched for a long time, and finally found the underground wine cellar, when he saw the gold and silver soft with half a jar, and a jar full of copper coins, his face couldn't help but smile, he didn't expect to meet the black shop but made a windfall, these money is enough for him to buy a large number of medicinal materials, so that Xiuwei can be upgraded to another level.

He found a cloth bag and put them away, and suddenly he noticed that there was a package in the corner of the wall, and a sword was pinned to it, and he knew that it was not a mortal thing just by looking at the gems set in the scabbard.

When he opened the package, he was even more surprised, there were not only more than thirty taels of silver under the clothes, but also two gold leaves, and a medicine bottle.

When I opened the medicine bottle, there was a high-quality gold sore medicine with no price.

After putting it back together, he picked up the sword and looked at it, drew its blade, and a cold light flashed through the cellar.

"Good sword!" he couldn't help but sigh in admiration, only at the chill emanating from the sword's body, he knew that it was not ordinary metal that forged this sword.

Thinking of the young man in Chinese clothes who was tied up in the firewood room, he had a guess in his heart.
