The cycle of cause and effect, the principles of heaven are revealed, and good and evil are rewarded......

No matter when, no matter where, no matter what sect, they like to put this sentence on their lips.

They said, "Do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and you will be blessed in the future."

But can a good person really have a good reward?

The good man relieved the beggar, but the beggar led the thief to destroy the whole family of the good man, is there still a lack of things?

And the wicked really have evil retribution?

Chu Yujia himself knows that he is not a good person......

Although he didn't do it himself, more than a million people died because of him.

But isn't he alive and well now?

In his view, the Buddhist theory of karma is nothing more than your cause, my effect, my cause, and his effect......

But in these troubled times, what is the use of this so-called theory?

Chu Yujia didn't have the leisure to talk to this little monk, nor did he have the patience to explain everything to him.

After leaving the village, Arcan continued to lead the group.

It wasn't that Arcan didn't know what was going on in the village, but he was smart enough not to ask anything.

After all, he is also a person who walks the rivers and lakes, and he has seen everything on the road, and this kind of killing people is not uncommon, and it is not uncommon for him to be killed, and he has long been surprised.

Even for Arcán, this is a good thing, after all, he didn't have much gold and silver here, and he got what he wanted.

On the next road, the little monk was also like losing his soul, although he did not leave Chu Yujia, he didn't say a word, and he didn't talk about Buddhist words such as poor monks.

Apparently, he has now developed a certain doubt about his beliefs.

On the second day, the team arrived at a relatively large town.

The town is very lively, and there are countless business travelers and monks.

You don't need to ask everyone to see that something big is going to happen here recently.

Of course, Chu Yujia didn't have the spare time to deal with things and people that had nothing to do with his goals.

So he didn't ask anything more about it.

Next, the group arrived at a post station, where they were going to rest and wait for the water and food needed on the road before setting out.

The inside of the post station is mixed, and the lobby on the first floor is full of all kinds of people.

Some of these people are from Gumo, some are from the Mingwu Empire, and some are from further afield.

Reading between the lines, you can tell that there was a very grand Buddhist meeting recently, and on the day of the Buddhist meeting, a very famous ascetic monk would come and debate with a local master.

"I heard that this master who is coming recently is a master who has had an epiphany in the bitter cold land......"

"Yes, I've heard that this master was very famous before he had an epiphany. ”

"Not only that, listening to the rumors of business travel in the past, this master is not only able to purify sentient beings in Buddhism, but also has the ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons, I heard that this time I came here not only to debate with Master Guangli, but also to decide with Master Guangli in martial arts......"

All these people present were discussing these things.

After all, this time the stakes are very high, and the battle between the two Buddhist masters, if one is not done well, let the foreign master have the upper hand, and the local master will come to an end.

But in Chu Yujia's eyes, it's just a group of boring people doing something boring......

Buddhism, crossing people and crossing oneself, a body of Buddha nature, tens of millions of Buddhas in the world, thousands of temples in the world......

There are countless Buddhist disciples and countless inheritance temples in Gumo country, all of which are headed by one person in one temple......

Listening to the words of everyone present, an old man said: "There is no need for everyone to be so pessimistic, our Master Guangli may not necessarily lose, maybe how he came, how he will go back." ”

He is also a somewhat famous figure in the local area, but unfortunately at such an age, he is still mediocre, although he is not famous, but his ability is not big.

However, he had great respect for Master Lian Guangli.

"That is, Master Guangli, whether it is dialectics or martial arts, will not necessarily lose to that newcomer, according to me, that guy may be a deceitful and famous person......"

As soon as these words came out, the believers of Master Guangli present spoke up one after another.

It seems that the guy who came to argue the law just humiliated himself without taking his own strength.

The Mingwu Empire is not without Buddhism, but it is not welcomed, and it has always been one of the suppressed ones.

Even in many vassal states, there were also actions to exterminate Buddhas.

It is also because the Mingwu Empire does not offer Buddhism, and in the eyes of the people of Gumo, the Mingwu Empire is a place where there are no gods and Buddhas.

A godless place is destined to not go far and is destined to perish.

Even in the Mingwu Empire, there are many people who are scolding the royal court behind their backs......

For these, even Chu Yujia, who had a weak temperament, couldn't help but want to say a few words about them.

Do they understand what the rules of survival are and what are troubled times?

Occupy the mountain to build a temple, divide the land for governance, reclaim it on the spot, and do not collect taxes from the gods and Buddhas......

They are not allowed to marry, they are not allowed to have children, they occupy the labor force of men, they also occupy the land, the believers offer incense oil money, and they have not paid taxes......

Even in some countries, some men choose to take refuge in temples in order to escape military service......

When the Buddha was destroyed in Western Chu, the minister said: "The world is very wealthy, and the Buddha accounts for seven ......."

Ten of the world's wealth, Buddha accounts for seven or eight ......

This means that tax revenues have been reduced by seven or eight percent......

No matter how strong a country is, it is easy to say that its income will be reduced by seven or eight percent at the beginning, but if it is too long, the country's finances will enter a vicious circle......

Many things that benefit the country and the people also need start-up capital, so without a source of income, all this is empty talk.

Of course, what about military service in addition to these?

A large number of young and middle-aged people have gone to become monks, and the grassroots soldiers will be exhausted.

A large number of young and middle-aged people have gone to become monks, and the grassroots soldiers will be exhausted.

Without the army, without income, what will the country do?

When you see the crux of the problem, you can only attack them.

It is also because of this that so many princes and kings will join forces to destroy the Buddha with full tacit understanding.

Chu Yujia knew the truth of this, and he naturally didn't have a good impression of Buddhism.

At this time, when I heard the praise of these people in the post station, I also thought that these people were interesting, and chuckled slightly.

But just like that, he was seen by a person next to him.

Maybe it's because he looks good-looking and feels jealous.

Maybe he's looking for something.

Seeing Chu Yujia laughing, the man said, "What are you laughing at?"

Chu Yujia raised his eyebrows, replied, and said, "I love to laugh, can you manage it?"

"Hehe......"

"The Ming warriors also deserve to eat at this station?"

The man smiled coldly and said, "I see that you laughed just now, obviously dissatisfied with Master Guangli. ”

Suddenly, the entire hall was silent, and everyone looked at Chu Yujia.

The face of the old man who was the first to open his mouth to praise Master Guangli changed on the spot, and he walked towards Chu Yujia with a step: "Who is dissatisfied with Master Guangli?"
