Three days later, in front of the Erlang Temple, Yang Jian led the seven brothers of the Mei family to stand in front of the temple with a solemn expression. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The auspicious clouds were floating in the sky, and a white-headed and white-bearded old man stood in the air with a white head, unfolded a golden holy decree, and read: "In accordance with the edict of the Great Heavenly Venerable to supervise the edict of Zhang Lingguan of the Three Realms: Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun Yang Jian sits in the mouth of the Guanjiang River, respects the heavens and the people, repeatedly defeats demons and evils, and has made outstanding achievements.
This white-bearded old man is Tai Bai Xing, he was ordered by Zhang Muxian to come to Guan Jiangkou to preach and recruit Yang Jian into the heavenly court to preside over the overall affairs of the heavenly court. His voice is not loud, but it is like the sound of the Great Dao, and it can be heard in the Three Realms.
In the Heavenly Court, only extremely important wills can be written on this kind of holy decree, and then it is staked by the list of gods, and the Three Realms can hear it, which is the most authoritative appointment of the Three Realms.
After Tai Bai Xing finished reciting the holy decree, Yang Jian took the holy decree and followed Tai Bai Xing to heaven.
Yang Jian entered the heavenly court to replace Zhang Muxian as the picket spirit officer, supervising the affairs of the heavenly court, Zhang Muxian retreated in the picket spirit official yamen, indicating that Yang Jian's era had arrived.
At this time, the battle of Weishui had ended for many years, and the chaotic situation in the human world was gradually brought under control.
In the south, Song Yu, a commoner-born general, gradually seized power in the army, and he was unbearable to the incompetence of Emperor Sima, and gradually became interested in replacing him.
In the north, the Tuoba tribe gradually rose to prominence with the help of the king, receiving the political resources and territory of the Qin Dynasty one by one, and once again realizing the unification of the north.
A situation of antagonism between the north and the south has been formed, with the south being the base camp of Taoism and the north being the base area of Buddhism. Because Zhang Muxian killed the ancestor of the Styx River and killed Zhuan, the two sides of Buddhism and Taoism were shocked and did not dare to act rashly, so the two sides of Buddhism and Taoism entered a period of temporary peace.
After Yang Jian moved into the Heavenly Court, he still continued the method of competition for posts and elimination of the last position left by Zhang Muxian. presided over the competition for the Big Dipper Monarch, and four immortals from the Heavenly Court, three Buddhas from Lingshan and one hermit from the human world stood out and held the throne of the Big Dipper Seven Star Monarch respectively.
Yang Jian didn't like luxury, he didn't like publicity, and all the work of Heavenly Court entered a stable period, and Heavenly Court's influence in the Three Realms was further weakened.
After being quiet for a period of time, the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism saw that Yang Jian only cared about the internal affairs of the heavenly court and had no intention of interfering in the power of the human world, and gradually began a new round of struggle for power and profit.
Sixty years later, the Bodhisattva was secretly reincarnated in the Xiao family of Moling County by the order of the Buddha, and was named Xiao Yan. At this time, the Southern Song Dynasty had been replaced by the Xiao family and established the Southern Qi Dynasty, and Xiao Yan's father Xiao Shunzhi was the younger brother of Emperor Gao.
Xiao Yanyin is the reincarnation of Buddhism, he has been very smart since he was a child, and he likes to read, he is a knowledgeable and talented teenager, especially in literature.
Thirty years later, Xiao Yan was already an important minister of Southern Qi because of his talent and family status, Emperor Xiao Zhen of Qi Wu was seriously ill, and the minister Wang Rong advocated supporting Xiao Ziliang, the king of Jingling, in order to control the government, and later the matter was revealed, Wang Rong was imprisoned and died, and Xiao Luan, who was supported by Xiao Yan, ascended the throne.
After Xiao Luan ascended the throne, he did not forget Xiao Yan's scheming skills, and promoted him to Zhongshu Shilang, and later to Huangmen Shilang. Xiao Yan's status is even more prominent.
In the following ten years, Xiao Yan gradually mastered the military and political affairs of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and had the strength to depose the emperor, and finally abolished the Southern Qi Emperor at the age of forty-two and ascended the throne to stand on his own.
After Xiao Yan ascended the throne, he gradually revealed his thoughts of degrading Taoism and worshipping Buddha, and wantonly suppressed Daomen and built Buddhist temples throughout the Southern Dynasties.
Rulai's plan surfaced, and all the southern forces of Daomen fell, and there was almost no place to stand. Daomen successively sent masters to assassinate Xiao Yan more than 500 times, but all of them were annihilated. The Great Trend Bodhisattva is the top of Da Luo Jin Immortal, who in the world can kill him?
Xu Jingyang, Ge Xianweng, and Wei Cunhua, among the four great heavenly masters of the Daomen, were reincarnated successively, and threw themselves into the home of the powerful in the human world, manipulating the authority of the human world, and attacking the status of Buddhism with secular imperial power.
In the following decades, there were tragic battles between the two gates of Buddhism and Taoism, and the Buddha was destroyed several times, and countless Buddhism and Taoist masters fell.
Yang Jian stood outside the Nantian Gate, looking down on the human world, often motionless for a whole day. The Four Heavenly Kings and the rest of the Heavenly Court Immortals did not dare to step forward to disturb them.
The human world is changing, the world is gradually chaotic, people are not as good as dogs, Yang Jian sees it in his heart, but he has a weak heart. After Zhang Muxian's retreat, Yang Jian independently supported the situation of Heavenly Court, although he had the cultivation of Golden Immortals and proved the Tao with strength, but sitting in Heavenly Court not only required strength, but also required a certain amount of skill.
In the face of the yang and yin of the two immortals of Buddhism and Taoism, coupled with the fact that he is not like Zhang Muxian, he has the support of the sect members, and the identity of the nephew of the Jade Emperor has made him drift away from the teachings, except for more than 1,200 brothers under his command, he has fallen into a situation where no one is available.
"I have the heart to do something for the Terrans, but I can't do it. Now I understand how difficult it was for my cousin to support the situation of the Heavenly Court alone after my uncle went into retreat. The longer he sat in Heavenly Court, the more Yang Jian admired Zhang Muxian in his heart.
After Zhang Muxian returned to the Jade Emperor's retreat, he implemented the method of competitive appointment and elimination of the last position, which directly threatened the status of some immortals with ulterior motives, so that they did not dare to be disrespectful. If it weren't for taking advantage of the remnants of Zhang Muxian's legacy policy, Yang Jian even suspected that Heavenly Court had already split.
"If you come, Zhang Daoling, you can make a fuss. If the Terrans fall because of the two of you, see how you end. "For example, if there are constant wars and chaos today, and the population of the human race is decreasing, the weather is no longer as good as when Zhang Muxian was in retreat.
Yang Jian stood outside the Nantian Gate every day, not for anything else, but to watch the luck of the human race.
"If my cousin is here, what will he do?" Yang Jian thought hard, but sighed. He can think of a way to break the situation, at this time the Buddha Dao is deadlocked, he only needs to release the land of the mountain god to the human realm, he can deter the two factions of Buddhism and Taoism, so that they dare not act rashly, but he does not dare to make up his mind.
"It's easier said than done!" Yang Jian sighed again. He was not good at calculating, and he could see that the release of the land of the mountain gods to the human realm would have a significant effect in the short term, but he could not make a long-term calculation, so he hesitated.
When a person has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, every decision he makes is a thousand thoughts and plans, for fear of causing bad consequences. Yang Jian fell into this situation at this time, and there was no one who could be discussed, his 1,200 brothers were experts in fighting on the battlefield and slaying demons.
"Cousin, when will you be able to get out, the burden of Heavenly Court is too heavy. Yang Jian silently missed Zhang Muxian in his heart.
