Chapter 58 Transactions Five Hundred Years Ago(1/2)
What's the matter?"
The ethereal voice of Shenshu sounded in his ears, and Xu Qian saw the thick fog, gathering and dispersing. He passed through the floating fog and saw a dilapidated temple, with the handsome monk Shenshu sitting cross-legged at the door.
"Master, it's okay. I just saw the big picture and wanted to come over and have a meal with you." Xu Qian said sincerely.
"In front of Buddhist masters, don't call my name in your heart." Shenshu warned.
"I understand, master, I won't hold you back."
Xu Qi'an recounted the scene that had just happened in the night sky in the capital, and said with emotion: "Jian Zheng's shielding technique is really powerful."
"Since it is a first-class one, it is naturally powerful." Monk Shenshu said gently: "However, it may be because of my incomplete memory. I don't remember the information about the warlock."
A hundred years before Monk E Shenshu was sealed, the warlock system only appeared, right? He didn't know that the warlock system was normal.
Xu Qian said: "Master, I tested the monks from the Western Regions a few days ago, and I have some understanding of your identity."
Monk Shenshu's gentle face revealed a solemn look, and he stared at him intently: "What's the result?"
Xu Qian replied: "The Buddhist monks said that you are a traitor to Buddhism. Because they could not kill you, they sealed you."
"Buddhist Traitor"
Monk Shenshu murmured, his expression gradually changed, sadness and anger flashed deep in his eyes.
The mist of this hidden world trembled, and the mist surged like a river.
"You did a good job, I remembered some past events." After a while, the monk Shenshu calmed down and nodded.
What's the past? Boss, can you share it with me? Xu Qianxin said.
As soon as the thought came to mind, the fog in front of me closed, covering the dilapidated temple and the Shenshu monk, and then the whole world began to fade away.
The scenery changed, the furnishings in the room came into view, and he came out of the mysterious world of Monk Shenshu.
"The old aunt has a connection with me. I will ask Taoist Jinlian later what kind of connection it is. Otherwise, I always feel like there is a lump in my throat and it is uncomfortable.
"The Buddhist mission doesn't know when it will leave. During this period, I try to keep a low profile. Master Du'e is stronger than I thought.
"My mental power has now reached a peak, and I can almost try to break through. However, after seeing the wonders of the Buddhist Vajra Shrine, I am a little disdainful of the copper skin and iron bones of martial arts.
"Master Shenshu's memory is incomplete. Without this skill, Hengyuan is a stepmother. It is difficult to learn such a profound and unique skill."
He was lying on the bed, letting his thoughts wander, when suddenly, a familiar feeling of heart palpitations came over him.
Xu Qi'an reached out and pulled out the fragments of books from under the pillow, stood up, lit the oil lamp, sat at the table, and checked the letter.
[1: Taoist priest, leader of the Western Region Mission, what grade is Master Due? 】
It's rare that screen-peeping madman No. 1 actually took the initiative to send a letter.
[Nine: Du'e is a second-grade Arhat, the one who kills thieves.]
Second-grade Arhat, this agrees with my guess, but what is the fruit of killing a thief? Xu Qian briefly recalled it and confirmed that there is no record of "fruit" in the official records of the yamen.
[Four: The so-called fruition status is a Buddhist theory. Arhat has three major fruition statuses, namely, killing the thief, not returning it, and Arhat. Among them, the Arhat fruition status is the highest, and "killing the thief" and "not returning it" are equal. 】
So even though I don’t understand it, I feel it’s very powerful! Xu Qian nodded slowly.
After explaining, No. 4 added: [However, I feel that the second Dharma image that appeared tonight is a bit ridiculously strong. 】
The first Dharma Appearance is the condensed result of Killing Thieves and is the power of Master Du E. The breath of the second Dharma Appearance is grander and thicker.
[Nine: That is the Dharma Appearance of Vajra Angry Eyes, one of the nine Dharma Appearances of Buddhism.]
[Four: No wonder, it turned out to be the Bodhisattva who took action.]
Bodhisattva, a first-class Bodhisattva?! Xu Qi'an hissed, and he subconsciously looked around, a chill running down his spine, as if a thief was terrified when he heard the siren.
If the one who came to the capital was a first-class person, Xu Qian felt that he would be in danger again.
Hold on, hold on, every system has its special features. Shielding secrets is a warlock's specialty. If he believes in Jian Zheng's strength, he can only comfort himself in this way.
At this time, Li Miaozhen got excited and wrote: "What are you talking about? What is the Dharma that appears tonight?"
No. 1 has always been at odds with No. 2. No. 4 wanted to "avoid suspicion" with her due to the dispute between heaven and man. Taoist priest Jin Lian did not react for the time being and stayed silent for a while. Finally, No. 6 Hengyuan sent a letter to explain:
[The Buddhist mission has entered Beijing and caused some commotion. Tonight, a Dharma image appears in the sky above the capital.]
A few seconds later, Li Miaozhen sent another message: [Come for the Sangbo case?]
The sealed object under Sang Bo involved Buddhism, and No. 3 had announced this within the Tiandihui. Thinking that Xu Qi'an had died, she suddenly felt a little sad.
【Six:Yes.】
Li Miaozhen wrote with emotion: "Buddhism is indeed powerful, and it deserves to be the largest religion in Kyushu."
I have never thought about whether Buddhism is the largest force in Kyushu. I will go to the Yamen tomorrow to check the information.
[4: Li Miaozhen, why haven’t you arrived in the capital yet? 】
[2: Hey, wouldn’t it be nice to let you live a few more days? 】
Hey, hey, girl, don’t speak so rudely, but convince others with your virtue! Xu Qian complained in her heart.
[Two: I choose to take the land route to the capital. Along the way, I can eradicate evil and kill a few corrupt officials and powerful people. 】
No one said anything in the Dishu group for a long time. Taoist priest Jin Lian bubbled up: [By the way, how is No. 5 doing lately? 】
No. 5 did not respond.
[Two: Taoist Priest, please send a letter privately to ask. I think something happened to this girl again.]
Taoist Priest Jinlian said helplessly: [Okay.]
The experience of No. 5 can probably be written in a book such as "The Wanderings of No. 5" and "The Bizarre Adventure of No. 5". Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Qian's lips curled up slightly.
After sleeping until dawn, Xu Qian rode a young mare and came to the watchman's office.
He went straight to the document warehouse, came to the document warehouse with the name "C", and told the officials in charge of the document warehouse: "Take all the documents related to Buddhism."
"One more cup of tea by the way," he said.
There is a vast amount of information related to Buddhism, and the stack on the table is taller than a person. After Xu Qian's screening, he excluded some strange people, strange things, and "legends", focusing on regional related materials such as "Geography of Kyushu" and "Geography of the Western Regions"
books.
About an hour later, he got what he wanted.
"Sure enough, Buddhism ranks first in Kyushu in terms of area. Buddhism is everywhere in the entire Western Region, and the territory of the Western Region is twice that of Dafeng, three times that of the north, and three to five times that of the northeast.
"Of course, the Western Region is vast and sparsely populated, so it is not a fertile land. Then, if you add the territory of one hundred thousand mountains in the southern border, which is the territory of the original Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom, the "land" of Buddhism will be too terrifying."
Then, he asked the officials to bring pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and began to write the words "Sangbo", "National Religion", "Destroy the Buddha" and other words on a piece of rice paper.
He remembered a piece of history that Taoist Priest Jinlian had told him, about the founding emperor.
In order to overthrow the decadent Central Plains dynasty, the founding emperor of Dafeng once borrowed troops from the Northeastern Wushen Cult at the cost of making the Wushen Cult the state religion.
According to records in "Geography of the Western Regions", Buddhism is also the state religion.
"Judging from the information that Princess Huaiqing and I found, Buddhism was blooming all over the Central Plains four hundred years ago, and it was clearly a trend to become a state religion. It's just that Confucianism at that time was in a state of "with all due respect, everyone here is rubbish"
peak stage.
"Directly promoting the extermination of Buddhism, Buddhism did not overreact and withdrew from the Central Plains. I have two guesses here: First, Confucianism was indeed so powerful that it was lawless. Second, Buddhism did not dare to fall out with Dafeng directly because it still relied on Dafeng.
Seal the gods.
"If Confucianism has not weakened yet, with the strength of Confucianism and Si Tianjian, Dafeng's national power will undoubtedly be the strongest among the nine states."
Xu Qian used his air machine to smash the paper, left the case library, and turned around and entered the Sitian Prison.
After getting the message, he climbed to the seventh floor. Wei Yuan's voice was not heard in the tea room. He looked towards the observation deck out of habit, and sure enough he saw Wei Yuan.
The eunuch with gray hair and disheveled hair, wearing a green robe, was lying on a lounge chair, taking a nap and leisurely basking in the sun.
"Did you kneel down last night?" the eunuch said with a smile.
"My feet didn't even shake." Xu Qian said disdainfully.
"Come here and pinch your head." Wei Yuan waved.
Xu Qi'an took a look first to confirm that Nangong Qianrou was not there, then stepped forward with relief, massaging the acupuncture points on Wei Yuan's head as if he was possessed by Teacher Tony.
"The escape of Sangbo's sealed object is Dafeng's dereliction of duty. The Buddhist monk is just throwing a tantrum. Don't worry about it." Wei Yuan consoled him.
He thought I came here because I was worried about what happened yesterday. Mr. Wei, you thought I was on the first floor, but actually I am on the eighteenth floor! Not only did I know that Bodhisattva took action yesterday, I also knew the whereabouts of Monk Shenshu. Xu Qian was quick and easy.
asked:
"Why does Da Feng help Buddhism seal evil things?"
To this day, he is already Wei Yuan's confidant, and many secrets that cannot be told outside can be disclosed openly.
"Did you find out something?" Wei Yuan was slightly stunned.
"When I was investigating the Sangbo case, I accidentally discovered a piece of history. Five hundred years ago, the prince was playing in Sangbo and accidentally fell into the water. He then contracted hysteria and died soon after.
"Five hundred years ago, Emperor Wuzong seized the throne. Five hundred years ago, Buddhism in the Western Regions suddenly spread its religion in the Central Plains. Within a hundred years, Buddhist temples bloomed everywhere, until a hundred years later Confucianism promoted the extermination of Buddhism.
"The formation under Sangbo is engraved with Buddhist inscriptions. Based on the clues, I speculate that the evil object was also sealed five hundred years ago."
Wei Yuan pondered for a long time and nodded slowly: "Yes, the sealed object under Sangbo originated from a transaction between Buddhism and Emperor Wuzong.
