Chapter 675: The Night Storm (4)
At the beginning of the fierce fight with Helan Gong, Wei Ye knew that this kind of sect that pretended to be one god but was actually the duality of good and evil had the most moths.
This was true in Zoroastrianism in the past, and it is also true in Manichaeism today.
It's just that compared to Zoroastrianism, which is not adapted to the West Asian sect, Manichaeism can be regarded as a strange flower. It belongs to a branch of the Apocalypse religion, and its own establishment has absorbed a lot of elements from Zoroastrianism and Christianity, but it has also developed towards East Asia and South Asia.
As for the patriarch Mani, he followed the example of Muhammad, proclaimed himself the last prophet, and then pulled all the ancestors of the sect into his own unsuccessful predecessors.
Although Orthodox Manichaeism fell out only a few hundred years later, there were no fewer branches of its dispersion. It is not as good as the consistent harmfulness that was banned in the post-classical era, and its main deity "the childless old mother is clearly God", that is, the Manichaean Da Ming Zun put on a mother's vest.
It's just that why didn't the mother turn into a cute girl, but the mother turned into a mature and rotten mother image. This matter can only be blamed on the main god originally constructed by Luo Qing, the founder of the mountain, who has always been harmful to humanity, is the mother god of the earth who embraces life.
The Manichaean activity is more secret and difficult to detect than the Zoroastrians, the believers who sang the praises of peace by blasting and cutting off Kafel's head, the resolute refusal not to compromise with Kafel, and to completely dissociate themselves from others in terms of food, clothing, and writing.
When they call themselves Mingzun and Ming Wang, and worship the Buddhas of Light, in addition to those scholars and monks in Buddhism who study the scriptures all the year round and come to judge the teachings, those ordinary monks and good believers who only know how to recite a few words of the Guanyin Sutra know which Bodhisattva they worship in front of them!
Similarly, the method of facing the sun and the moon and worshipping the Beidou in the Daomen has been quietly changed by Manichaeism, and the five stars of the sun and moon have been replaced by the Manichaean sun and moon law boat, which does not seem to be a difficult matter.
At the beginning, Wei Yeping suppressed the Qiang rebellion, it was because the Xiliangqiang people and the Zoroastrian religion had alienated themselves from the people in advance, and they wanted to sweep them away and suppress them, and the goal was really obvious.
But Manichaeism, which has the ability to mix the Taoist and Buddhist sects, unless, like these monks in the Yongle Monastery, reveals this true seed of the core of the Dharma, who can guarantee that they can be seen at a glance?
Holding the more than ten white Tibetan beads in his hand, Wei Ye's face did not move, and Xiao Gao was making a report through the communication channel: "If you want to talk about intelligence, the information on this Yin Demon is simply pitiful. I counted them, and there were just a few of them. First, since more than ten years ago, the senior monks of the Khitan country have all passed away like a big explosion, and there are only a few monks with magical powers left in the Buddhist sect, and even the Khitan Tianzuo Emperor is also very anxious, but the arhat-level monks are not cabbage, how can it be said that there is? For a while, the honor of Buddhism has cooled down a little......
"Second, more than 10 years ago, there was such a monk called Pufeng - this Dharma name is quite familiar - what kind of ability to call the wind and rain, guess things on the partition, and take a bath in the oil pot performed one by one, and suddenly Tianzuo Emperor Long's heart was happy, and he was named a national teacher, the abbot of Yanjing Dahao Temple. Third, although the knowledgeable monks in Buddhism have found that what this Pufeng national teacher has learned is not correct, and he is closer to the outer way, but he can't bear the supernatural powers of others. In addition, those who have not cultivated into an arhat fruit, but have mastered the Buddhist method of Buddhism, have died a lot for a while, and they have died a lot for some reason, so it will be even more impossible to stop this Pufeng monk from expanding his power......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Gao added: "According to the confession, this Pufeng monk is not only very favored in the Khitan Kingdom, but also those Jurchen tribes along the Yalu River, and they also worship him as a Buddha. Wanyan's subordinates have already become his refuge disciples, which can be regarded as big news. ”
Wei Ye snorted coldly: "In front of the Khitan national teacher, but secretly colluding with the Wanyan Department? This business is very well-done, while eating at home, while developing the lower limit, it seems that everyone knows that the end of the Liao State is already doomed, even if it is on this rotten ship, it is also here to scavenge for benefits." ”
Speaking of this, Wei Ye raised his hand and sent more than ten white Tibetan beads over: "In this batch of white Tibetan pearls, not only are the same kind of Yin Demons forbidden, but even Mingzi, who is symbiotic with them, is also inside, but it is still troublesome for you to take a confession." Note that Wei not only wants information, but also asks you to sort out what magical abilities these Yin Demons and Mingzi have, and give me the detailed data. Naturally, as long as you do a good job, Wei will not hesitate to use bonds!"
......
.........
Wei Ye was collecting information, in front of Liu Xianzhu's temple, Xu Xuanling shook the banana leaf fan, shook his head and said: "Yizhou Longxingguan, I don't want to go back to that place, although it is also a good thing to return to my hometown, but Poor Dao now has no such state of mind to fight bravely." The two of you are going, and I am happy to see it come to fruition as a teacher, but your little mana is too far behind that of a teacher, but I can't rest assured. ”
As he spoke, he untied the iron sword on his back and handed it to Cen Taizhen and said, "Take out this sword and take a look." ”
Cen Taizhen followed Xu Xuanling's words, and pulled the hilt of the sword, but saw that the iron sword in the sheath was a pair of swords, and the dark and blue sword body was covered with silver threads into flowing clouds, faintly rising with water vapor.
Xu Xuanling pointed at this pair of iron swords with a banana leaf fan and said: "This pair of moire double swords was refined by the teacher in the mountains, and there are also mysteries in them. As a teacher, I learned a set of sword and sword combination methods from Hu Jiaoxi, but you practice with two swords, and you also have some power. Now I might as well pass it on to you. ”
Cen Taizhen handed over a moire sword to Shen Qingning, and the two knelt down towards Xu Xuanling and said, "It's so easy for the apprentices to reunite with the master, and they would rather accompany the master day and night to fulfill their filial piety, rather than go to Longxingguan." ”
On the side, Lu Lao Daoren also persuaded: "Senior brother, now that you are expected to become an immortal, it is precisely because you should stay with them and enjoy the blessings, why let the two of them travel hundreds of miles?"
Xu Xuanling secretly said in his heart: "Whether it is the mountain lord or the real person in charge, they all pay attention to merit, not a clean road in the mountains, since I am under the two disciples, how can I learn from Chen Luzhen to lie on Huashan? Seeing that the mountain lord is coming down the mountain this time, he is faintly concerned about the situation in Song Liao, Zhuozhou and Yizhou are both the gateways to Yanjing, so it is natural to take precautions for the mountain lord first and lay down the means. ”
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said: "Learner of the Dao, what good is it if you don't accumulate a little external strength? In the future, when I return to the mountain to discuss merit, my face will also be full of brilliance, and go, and go, don't be this little child here again!"
When Cen Taizhen and Shen Qingning saw the master say this, they glanced at each other, kowtowed to Xu Xuanling three times, and then said, "The apprentices hope that the master will take care of the immortal body, and we will go here." ”
After that, the two of them carried the moire double swords for each other, and wrapped them around each other, and then they were reluctant to give up, and turned back to the road step by step.
