150. The illusion collapses, the world is all illusion and only nature
After Xiahou Quan arranged Mo Xian's residence, someone from the palace invited Mo Xian to the banquet. Mo Xian was not happy about this, but as a representative of the Taoist forces, he had to go.
When he arrived, Bai Kaixin saw him and bowed. Mo Xian hurriedly stopped him and said, "Elder General, isn't this my life?"
The others were surprised, and Bai Kaixin said, "I, Bai Kaixin, are a servant, and I have never abandoned the immortal master. I have been taught that I am still a martial arts. Today, I will kowtow to my benefactor first and see my young master again."
He was busy kneeling for another person, saying that he was the master, but before he could kneel down, Brother Bai Shu hurriedly stopped him, and the others whispered, Mo Xian smiled.
"Amitabha, donor Mo, I haven't seen you for decades. I didn't expect you to be so young." He spoke in broad terms. He had entered the Sotapanna, which is the level of Taoist golden elixir. The little novice monk back then was now a kind-hearted monk.
"Broad Du, I didn't expect that you have become the abbot of Guhua Temple, where is your master?" Mo Xian said.
"The family master is in seclusion and is attacking the Arhat Fruit. I didn't expect to meet you twice, Amitabha Buddha." Guangdu bowed and followed a monk in his body. It was Hui Ming. Hui Ming was also a tribute to Mo Xian, and Mo Xian smiled and returned the gift. For decades, the cause and effect between him and Hui Ming had long been formed.
"Immortal Master!" A waiter came over to guide him. Mo Xian did it and found that it was close to the main seat. He knew that it was the seat of Emperor Changxing. The banquet was made by one person and one seat. In front of him was a table with wine utensils and tableware. Behind Mo Xian, there were four seats, but there were Jing Yue and others who came with Mo Xian. Moreover, there was a beautiful woman kneeling beside the table.
Mo Xian knelt down. The banquet was not big. There were only a few important ministers accompanying him. They were at the bottom of the lower seat, with the breadth of the seat on the right, while Mo Xian was on the left, which was in line with the Taoist saying that Shang Rou and Gui Zuo. It seemed that they had put some thoughts on it.
As soon as Mo Xian sat down, a minister immediately knelt down and stood up and said, "The immortal master does not care about the world. I am very lucky to be here today! I heard that the sect is good at practicing elixirs and can achieve life and death with flesh and bones. What are the other ones?"
Mo Xian frowned. This person seemed to be praising him, but in fact he contained evil intentions. He didn't know why he was for him, and said, "That's it! The secret art of immortals is beyond the imagination of ordinary people."
The maid next to her said, "This is still a Confucian giant Dong Yuan in the court. He is the one who is the Great Honglu, and he is the most opposed to immortals and Buddhas." She whispered, which made Mo Xian interested in her.
But he gave up with a smile. It was not that he was willing to come, but that Emperor Changxing invited him to come. What could corrupt scholars do to him?
"You people who call themselves foreigners are so kind, they make some golden elixirs, deceive the king, and they are talking about secret magic of immortals. Forget it, if I don't become this official, I will reveal your true feelings!" Dong Yuan was very angry, and the people behind Mo Xian were also very angry. Mo Xian waved his hand. Just as the few people were about to rise up, they were suppressed by Mo Xian. Even Guangdu's skin next to him moved. Huiming was old god, and the other ministers looked bad, and Bai Kaixin even slapped the table.
"Boy, what did you say?" Bai Kaixin looked down on Mo Xian.
"General Bai, forget it, Xia Chou cannot speak of Bing, just a corrupt scholar, don't care!" Mo Xian said lightly, he was not in a hurry. For him, everything in the world has long been taken lightly, and his pursuit is no longer imagined by people in the world.
"A charlatan who pretends to be a ghost!" Dong Yuan's face turned red and his whole body was shaking. He stood up and brushed his sleeves. Just as he was about to go out, the eunuch shouted, "The emperor is here!"
Everyone stood up, Mo Xian was no exception and bowed to each other.
"All the immortal masters and the family, there is no need to be too polite, please sit down!" Emperor Changxing spoke.
Everyone sat down, and Dong Yuan was very embarrassed. He became ruthless and suddenly knelt down: "Your Majesty, please take back the fate. Buddhism and Taoism are not the great way to govern the country, so it cannot be trusted. Those who believe in Buddhism and Taoism will often die and their country will be destroyed!"
Dong Yuan cried, but Mo Xian remained calm and watched coldly. Emperor Changxing was furious and shouted, "Come on, drag this guy down, and the court sticks twenty." He turned around and said to Mo Xian: "Master Mo Xian, are you okay?"
Mo Xian smiled and said, "What's wrong with me? I'm afraid of being cold to the hearts of those monks who are in the country!"
As soon as Mo Xian said this, the ministers immediately changed their color. When Emperor Changxing heard this, he drank: "Come on, put Dong Yuan in jail!"
Mo Xian immediately became the public enemy of the ministers. Although they did not speak, they had obvious bad eyes. Mo Xian sneered in his heart. Since the Taoist sect wanted to escape, it would be better. Mo Xian did not want to become a tool for the dynasty in the world. Moreover, this matter was a provocation of Dong Yuan for no reason. Mo Xian did not fight back, and he thought that Mo Xian was easy to bully. Taoism was originally good at borrowing the power of heaven and earth. Similarly, in the court, Mo Xian also borrowed the power of emperors, which was also a kind of power of heaven and earth.
Although Guangdu's face did not change, he could see that there was also a fire in his heart. However, Buddhism did not rely on the human king and could not preach. He just sighed in his heart. Since ancient times, the court had to use Taoism and Buddha, but the core of Buddhism was the word for forbearance. He silently recited Amitabha Buddha, with a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, Dong Yuan is also for the country, but he does not understand that the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are all established by saints. The world governs the country with Confucianism, and the world of Buddhism and Taoism are not biased."
Emperor Changxing said with a smile on his face: "I am very relieved to all the immortal masters and Buddhists who can work hard for my country. Master Guangdu said it well, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism should not be neglected. I came to all the immortal masters and ministers to drink this cup."
The maid next to Mo Xian had already filled Mo Xian with wine, but the table in the breadth was filled with vegetarian wine, and a table of vegetarian banquet, while the others were a table of meat wine, and everyone raised their glasses.
Emperor Changxing put down his cup and said to Mo Xian: "I have something unknown. Do you have two immortal masters of Mo Xian?"
"Your Majesty is joking. Mo Xian is only one person, how could there be two? Has Your Majesty met another Mo Xian?" Mo Xian said with a smile, with a peaceful expression.
"How is it possible? The last emperor once painted a portrait of a fairy master Mo Xian. Although he had some imaginations about the immortal master, his appearance had not changed decades ago. Could it be that the immortal master was really young and lasting?" said Emperor Changxing.
"It's not said that youth is always there. It's just a childish heart. The years in the mountains are free, so there is no old man." Mo Xian said lightly.
"I want to stay young, can the immortal master have a way?" Emperor Changxing asked again.
"Your Majesty, as the master of man, cares about all the people with every move. Your Majesty should not learn this trick of people in the mountains and fields."
"May I ask him the way?"
"There is nothing else, only desires and thoughts. The body transforms itself, and the body and mind are naturally one. My body and mind are the same as the big thousand." Mo Xian smiled. His words were not wrong, but it is easier to kill an emperor if you call him no desires, but these are impossible at all. You cannot have both fish and bear's paws.
