Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Buddha's Affairs, Great Vows(1/2)
Under Zhang Shuming's narration, Cui Heng finally learned what this weird purple-black insect was.
During the Dayan Dynasty three thousand years ago.
People from the Tianxu Realm suddenly appeared, and the Dao First Palace was attacked extremely brutally. In the end, the Patriarch had to "fly up" to the upper realm and became a member of the upper realm, thus avoiding the catastrophe.
But three thousand years ago, there were actually many heavenly beings and even immortals in the Daoyi Palace. It was not easy to defeat such an extremely powerful sect and force it to ascend.
The reason why Dao Yigong was defeated so quickly back then was because of this "Tianxu Evil Insect".
This is a poison unique to the Tianxu Realm. Its specific origin is unknown. It is used as a rare and secret treasure by the nine immortal sects in the Tianxu Realm.
The Tianxu Evil Insect's own power is extremely weak, but its spiritual power is comparable to that of an Earth Immortal.
And there is also a kind of weird and evil ability pollution!
As long as they are not immortals, once they come into contact with such Tianxu evil insects, there is a high probability that their souls will be contaminated, and they will become irrational, kill crazily, and like to devour the souls of living beings.
In the original Taoist Palace, there were many heavenly beings and earthly beings polluted by the evil insects of Tianxu. Even the heavenly beings and the heavenly kings were helpless and had no choice but to compromise in the end.
"It turns out to be a poison from the Tianxu Realm."
Cui Heng nodded lightly, but was a little confused, "But why are there Tianxu evil insects in the outer world? Could it be that the evil insects in Tianxu world are actually obtained from the stars in the universe?"
"It's not impossible." Zhang Shuming nodded and said, "It is rumored that the stars outside the sky are extremely dangerous. Only powerful people at the level of Tianjun can go out to explore. There may be some reasons for this."
Having said this, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's a pity that the ancient books of our Dao First Palace were seriously damaged, otherwise it would definitely not be like now, and we can only have a vague understanding of some situations."
"That's enough." Cui Heng smiled and said, "After the immortal Buddhas from the Tianxu Realm arrive, I can also ask them personally."
Although Zhang Shuming didn't provide many clues, it was enough to let him figure out the danger level of the evil insects in Tianxu.
And there is an unexpected surprise, that is, the danger level in the starry sky does not seem to be high.
Tianjun can go out and explore.
This is equivalent to the late stage of foundation building or the peak of foundation building.
Of course, it is also possible that warriors at this level are unable to detect the real danger.
It would be better to wait until you reach Nascent Soul or become a God in cultivation before trying to explore the void of the universe.
"By the way, do you know what the realm of Buddha is as mentioned by Huitong Bodhisattva?" Cui Heng asked Zhang Shuming again.
"Buddha is a very strange realm." Zhang Shuming thought for a while and said, "A hundred years ago, I heard the founder of the sect say that although the Buddha in Buddhism is above the heavenly king, he is still the third realm of the immortal world.
"At that time, I had doubts in my heart. Since the Heavenly Lord is already at the top of the three realms of the immortal world, why is there a Buddha above the Heavenly Lord in the third realm? The Patriarch answered me that the different paths of the Buddha's path are not completely equivalent.
"Even if we are in the third realm of the immortal world, there will be various differences due to different cultivation methods and concepts. Although the Buddha is above the heavenly king, it is extremely difficult to achieve it, because the Buddha is above the great Bodhisattva."
"So that's it." Cui Heng was stunned when he heard the words, and said thoughtfully, "On top of the great Bodhisattva is the Buddha. Such a span is a bit huge."
He already knows what realm this Buddha is equivalent to.
Tianjun is most likely equivalent to the late stage of foundation building.
If the Buddha is above the Heavenly King, he should only be at the pinnacle of foundation building.
But if this is the case, the Buddhist cultivation method in the third realm is ridiculous.
The Great Bodhisattva is equivalent to the early stage of foundation building, while the Buddha is equivalent to the peak of foundation building.
The difference is as vast as the sky, like clouds and mud.
If the Great Bodhisattva is the Buddha, it means that the Buddhist warriors will jump directly from the early stage of foundation building to the peak of foundation building.
This is almost impossible to do.
The span is too big.
"Well, the difference is indeed huge."
Zhang Shuming nodded and said: "Therefore, there are rumors that if a great Bodhisattva wants to become a Buddha, he must make a great wish. Only by fulfilling the great wish can he become a Buddha."
"Is there such a thing?" Cui Heng frowned. It seems that it is not easy for this Buddhist warrior to practice.
"I don't know if it's true or not. When the Patriarch told it, he just told rumors." Zhang Shuming shook his head and looked a little ashamed. It was rare for the immortal to ask questions, but he couldn't give an accurate answer, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
"This Buddhism is quite strange." Cui Heng sat down again, and at the same time motioned for Zhang Shuming to sit down, and said with a smile, "After the immortal Buddhas from the Tianxu Realm arrive, we should really communicate with them."
…
When Cui Heng returned to Changfeng Prefecture and asked Zhang Shuming.
The news that the barbarian army was marching outside Yunshu County and was about to march south to attack Fengzhou had just reached the imperial city of Zhongzhou.
This immediately caused the whole court to explode.
Wei Yi, who originally made it clear that he wanted to be a subjugated king after angrily denounced his ministers, came out to court again.
There was no way, Chu Yuanliang had "recovered" and returned to the court.
This "King of Subjugation" could not withstand the Prime Minister's persuasion, so he had no choice but to stand up again.
However, although Wei Yi stood up, he only planned to deal with it.
He was still lying crookedly on the dragon chair, with his eyes half-opened and half-squinted, as if he hadn't woken up, and he said vaguely: "Everyone, isn't it just the barbarian Chen Bing, what's the big deal?
"Don't you already know that I have given Fengzhou to Huzheng Chanyu? It's not wrong for him to want to take back his own land. Why is he wrong?"
This is completely messed up.
"Your Majesty! The emperor protects the land for the ancestors on behalf of the herdsmen. This is the destiny and must be done!" Chu Yuanliang stepped out and said loudly, "Your Majesty's edict to grant Fengzhou to the barbarians violates the laws of the ancestors and should be invalid.
"Now the barbarians are marching outside the city of Yunshu County. The prefect Meng Zhang has only a few thousand old soldiers in his hands, who are unable to fight. Even now, it is too late to send troops to rescue. The only option is to send troops over to meet the barbarian soldiers and conquer Yunshu.
Only then can Fengzhou not fall into the hands of thieves.spanstyle>Valley/spanstyle>
"I would like to ask your Majesty to appoint Cui Heng, the Mu of Fengzhou, as the General of Zhenbei. He must recruit troops throughout Fengzhou to resist the barbarian army, so that the entire territory of Fengzhou can be defended."
"Huh?" Wei Yi was still napping, but he was stunned when he heard the name Cui Heng.
He remembered that this seemed to be the county magistrate who defeated the Fengzhou Yan bandits, but now he was actually the Fengzhou Mu?
How many months has it been?
"Your Majesty, no!" At this moment, Jiang Wanshan, the Supervisor of the Zhongshu, suddenly jumped out, bowed and said, "I hold the position of Taiwei, and I also know military affairs.
"Now Zhou Mu is already a prince who cracks the earth. If he is appointed as a general again, he will be able to raise his flag to rebel. The country, the country, and the country will be overturned in an instant, and the sacred weapon will hang upside down!"
"Oh?" Wei Yi's eyes widened when he heard this, and he suddenly became more energetic. He put his hands on his hands and laughed, "How could there be such a good thing?"
Then, he looked at Chu Yuanliang, nodded and said, "Prime Minister, I am sure about this."
There was a sudden silence in the court hall.
Jiang Wanshan looked even more stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Now everyone understood that the His Majesty on the Jade Steps had not just said angry words when he said that he would be the king of the country's subjugation.
He really wants to be the king of subjugation!
In fact, the so-called edict to cede Fengzhou to Huzheng Chanyu only gave the other party a reason to go south, and the final ownership of the territory could not be determined until a battle was fought.
But now to directly appoint a state pastor as the general of Zhenbei is clearly digging his own grave.
If there is really a change of dynasty, these courtiers will be doomed.
So the courtiers came out one after another, knelt down under the jade steps, bowed their heads and begged Wei Yi to take back his orders.
Jiang Wanshan also reacted, and quickly led the courtiers around him to start angrily yelling at Chu Yuanliang.
In Chu Yuanliang's view, if he wanted to protect Fengzhou from losing its territory and prevent the people of Fengzhou from being ravaged by barbarians, the only way to do it was to let Cui Heng lead troops to resist.
Anyway, the imperial court has long lost control of Fengzhou. It would not be much different from the current situation to confer a general to Zhenbei. It can still defend the territory, so why not?
But the court officials didn't think so, and under the leadership of Jiang Wanshan, they persisted in confronting Chu Yuanliang.
Wei Yi stood on the jade steps and watched the courtiers quarreling with a sarcastic expression.
Say nothing.
This situation lasted for three days in a row.
It was on this day that the latest news about Yunshu County finally reached the capital court.
The bizarre result of the death of the Chan Yu and the annihilation of the barbarian army of 300,000 was presented to all the courtiers.
The whole hall was shocked!
Jiang Wanshan and others were speechless, but Chu Yuanliang was also shocked.
No one expected this result.
Considering the situation of the defenders of Yunshu County, can they still win?
Not only did they win, they also won a great victory, wiping out the entire barbarian army!
And just when everyone was surprised, Wei Yi, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly spoke.
Emperor Jianyan issued an edict that made everyone feel numb.
"The Fengzhou Shepherd disregarded the friendship of neighboring countries, used weapons and weapons, and brutally killed 300,000 people on the grassland. This is a violation of heaven's morality, and the crime is unpardonable. We order all the Shepherds from all over the world to punish him!"
Chu Yuanliang was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and passed out.
