In just ten days, a turbulent situation formed in the Yuan Kingdom.
As long as there is no martial arts person who has heard about this Buddhist public case, there is no one who does not want to go to the capital to find out the ins and outs of this matter.
A Buddhist master attacked a pregnant woman, causing her to die in childbirth and giving birth to a child with a mutilated child. Such sinful things would be enough to attract the attention of people in the world in any era.
therefore.
During the ten days when the imperial court of the Yuan Dynasty issued an edict against Buddhism and heard Chen Sha ordered Shuiyue An to bring the chief culprit to Yuan Jing to see him for ten days.
After a serious discussion.
It was not just An Ruyue and a group of elders from Shuiyue Temple who went to the capital of the Yuan Kingdom.
Even people from many major sects and martial arts sects in the Yuan Kingdom all went to Yuan Jing in the same ten days.
And after these martial arts people arrived in Yuanjing.
But I was surprised to find out.
Before the people from Shuiyuean arrived.
Another holy land of Buddhism, it can even be said that the "Pure Land Zen" that leads Buddhism actually arrived first.
And there were quite a few people coming.
After watching these monks enter the city.
Someone secretly exclaimed:
"They are the four great elders of the Zen sect who protect the Dharma. They have not left the mountain for thirty years: the great wisdom, the great compassion, the great conduct, and the great wish. The four innate-level Zen sect elders."
"Although I have never seen the eighteen middle-aged monks following these four great Zen monks, looking at their number, they must be the eighteen Arhat monks of each generation of the Pure Land Zen Sect!"
For ten years now, he has been the mainstay of the Pure Land Zen Sect, and can be said to be the future abbot. The head of each palace is basically chosen from among them.
The Buddhist monks of the four great innate levels brought the eighteen Arhat monks down the mountain, which brought out almost half of the foundation of Pure Land Zen.
Are you here just to witness the Shuiyuean case?
When the news spread throughout Yuanjing.
People from various sects and nobles can vaguely smell the strong smoke of confrontation.
Buddhism is one of the three religions in the world.
Especially in the Yuan Kingdom, its power was so great and its foundation was so profound that it could be said to compete with the Yuan Kingdom's five-thousand-year-old imperial court.
Among the three sects, which one is not a sect that has been established since ancient times?
What's more, Buddhism has accumulated strength over the years. During Chen Shenxuan's thirty years, he endured humiliation and accumulated countless masters.
therefore.
All martial arts people can imagine that the Pure Land Zen Sect is also present this time, and it must be to support their fellow Buddhist sect Shuiyue An.
If Chen Sha can't produce evidence that can identify Buddhism.
I guess the Pure Land Zen Sect will never give up.
The relationship between two places in Buddhism, a Zen sect and a holy nunnery, is similar to the relationship between Dao Yi and the Queen Mother in Taoism.
…
After Chen Sha came to the Yuan Dynasty, he had been living in the "Honglu Temple" where Gu Xuannong received him as a minister.
When he heard that Shuiyuean did not come first, but the four great monks of the Pure Land Zen Sect arrived first, he couldn't help but smile indifferently:
"If you do it yourself, you won't have to call someone."
However, what he was waiting for was Shuiyue An.
…
Today is the last day of the ten-day period.
Emperor Gu Xuannong of the Yuan Dynasty had already set up a public trial venue for this major martial arts case in Yuanjing. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the venue was actually set up at the entrance of the Sanfa Si Yamen.
A huge torture hall was built.
It is more like a law ground, where the sins of Buddhism are to be publicly tried in front of everyone in the world.
The people in the capital saw the top figures in the court, such as King Shenji and General Xu Bingshu, sitting on the high chairs above. And behind these people, there was a faintly most noble person in the hall.
All the key figures from the Yuan Kingdom came.
But it seems that the key figures on both sides of this major martial arts case have not arrived yet.
Many martial arts people looked around, but no one saw the figure of Master Daoyi.
…
Not far from the high platform.
On top of a restaurant, a middle-aged man with red eyebrows and a beard was stroking his beard, looking at the high platform that had been built with a smile, and said:
"Old Wuji, I hope your Yuan Kingdom is not asking for trouble this time. Buddhism is deep in water, but it is far from as simple as you think."
Sitting opposite the bearded man was none other than Chen Wuji, the Prime Minister of the Yuan Dynasty.
He gently raised his wine glass and said:
"I didn't expect that you, a bearded man, would actually care about this Buddhist incident."
Yan Chimei chuckled and said: "If it's just the grudge between your Yuan Kingdom and Buddhism, I'm not interested at all, but if you add Taoism and Sect, then I'll be interested."
After all, he knew the Yuan Kingdom's family background very clearly. Even if the so-called three great Yuan Kingdoms were born together, he might not be able to move his muscles and bones. It could be said that he looked down upon them.
Chen Wuji remained silent.
The other party's bearded man ranks fourth in the world, and the only people who interest him are some of the top ten in the world.
The master of the Dao Yi Sect, who has been in the limelight in the world of martial arts recently and has a vague ambition to win the world, is naturally the most able to attract his attention.
However, Chen Wuji was still most concerned about the inside story of Buddhism that this person knew. He solemnly said:
"You said back then that you lost to an old Buddhist monk in a drinking contest. What was so great about that old monk?"
Yan Chimei took a sip of wine and said:
"Let's put it this way, before I met him, I thought there were only four people in the world who could defeat me..."
He slowly stretched out four fingers and bent them one by one:
"There is no need to say that Chen Shenxuan is dead."
"Today's world's number one Yuan is picturesque, not to mention."
Chen Shenxuan's Dahuangting and Yuan Ruhua's Half-step Domain are both the most unsolvable things in the world.
"Besides these two people, there are two others, namely Wang Zaixiang and Pang Sheng."
Yan Chimei bent down four fingers and clenched them into fists:
"But since I met with Nalanda monk a few times, I know that I am not the fourth in the world, I am only the fifth in the world. By analogy, everyone below me will be ranked next."
Chen Wuji was shocked and said, "Is that old monk really that powerful?"
If I lure this old monk out, will the Taoist Sect Master be sure to deal with it?
Yan Chimei smiled slightly and said, "When have you ever seen me tell lies?"
Before Chen Wuji could speak.
Yan Chimei said to herself: "However, I feel that Monk Nalanda may not appear in Yuanjing this time."
Chen Wuji immediately asked: "Why?"
Yan Chimei stroked his beard and said: "As far as I know about this old bald donkey, he only has eyes for the eminent monk Talin in the 'little Buddha city' of the Pure Land Zen Sect. At that time, I was also interested in another person in Buddhism.
I went to the Pure Land Zen Sect, but I unexpectedly provoked him, and then started fighting with him for drinking and strength..."
Chen Wuji wrinkled and trembled, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Another Buddhist?"
Why is there anyone in Buddhism besides this wine-fighting monk that Yan Chimei can care about? Is Buddhism really so rich?
His eyes, which were worried about the country, flashed with anxiety again.
Yan Chimei glanced at him and said: "Speaking of which, you Yuan Kingdom should be familiar with the person I'm talking about. Back then, Gu Hualong practiced the Qi-stealing method and was promoted to ninth in the world. What he took away was the Pure Land Zen Sect.
The position of the head monk who teaches ‘I hear’.”
"Then, Chen Shenxuan was attracted to come to the Yuan Kingdom to suppress Gu Hualong, and the new emperor Gu Xuannong who you assisted took advantage of this to ascend to power."
Of course Chen Wuji knew about this, and was shocked in his heart, saying: "You mean..."
Yan Chimei smiled faintly and said: "Thirty years ago, Yan was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he had only practiced martial arts for three or four years. Chen Shenxuan, who was only four or five years older than me, started to dominate the world, so I heard that he was very different from me.
They are people from two eras. Later, when Yan gradually achieved great success in martial arts in the past thirty years and gradually climbed to the top four in the world, I heard that the monk master had been forced to retire for thirty years under the pressure of Chen Shenxuan.
Time, even though I am from the Yuan Kingdom, I have never seen him show up again."
"But the "Nine Grounds of Great Zen Sutra" of the Pure Land Zen Sect of Buddhism has a special feature, that is, as you grow older, you will continue to practice martial arts forever. Your skills will become stronger and stronger, and your moves will become more pure. That is
Life-long learning."
"Therefore, it can be said that the older a Buddhist monk is, the more powerful he is."
"When Yan reached the fourth place in the world, he repeatedly challenged Chen Shenxuan, Yuan Ruhua, Wang Zaixiang, and Pang Sheng. After being defeated, he knew that he could not surpass these people in a short period of time, so he wanted to find a level similar to mine.
After thinking about it, I thought about the master of the Pure Land Zen Sect thirty years ago. As the leader of Buddhism, one of the three religions, after thirty years of retirement, his skills may not be inferior to those of the top five in the world.
…”
"So I went to the Pure Land Zen Sect and wanted to find this monk leader to try and get involved. Unexpectedly... I provoked a Doujiu Landa monk who was more powerful than me."
Chen Wuji heard this.
My heart has begun to tremble.
"In other words, in the past thirty years, Buddhism has been recharging its energy and strength. Within the Pure Land Zen Sect alone, there are two top five masters in the world..."
Yan Chimei smiled slightly and said, "Now you understand what Yan said."
The water in Buddhism is deep. If you haven't been in the world for thirty years, you will have long been hiding.
I hope Yuan Guo will not ask for trouble this time.
Chen Wuji couldn't help but feel uneasy and confused.
But at this time.
There was a lot of noise, and then someone came to the table and whispered to Chen Wuji:
"Prime Minister, people from Shuiyue Temple have entered the capital."
Chen Wuji raised his head: "Are you finally here? How many people are here?"
"There are two people in total, one is An Ruyue, the headmaster of Shuiyue Temple, and the other is an old nun who has never appeared in the world. Although there are only two of them, they both have great innate cultivation."
When Chen Wuji received the news.
At the execution ground at the entrance of the Sanfa Si Yamen, a group of people spread out and watched the two people at the end of the street walking towards here.
An Ruyue was dressed in a white shirt with hair and a white gauze on her head. As soon as she appeared, it was like a peaceful heavenly being descending into the world. With her footsteps moving, everyone who passed by felt their hearts calm down.
"Is this the headmaster of Shuiyue Temple?"
"If he is really like a Buddhist heavenly being with such a temperament, he will be as cruel as the Taoist Sect Master said. I don't believe it."
Some people couldn't help but be fascinated when they witnessed An Ruyue's temperament.
After An Ruyue appeared, she did not climb onto the high platform at first, but walked towards the four great monks of the Pure Land Zen Sect and announced the Buddha's name:
"Oh, I didn't expect that the four elders Lian Zhi, Bei, Xing, and Yuan would also come."
The four great monks of the Pure Land Zen Sect also proclaimed the name of Buddha to An Ruyue and the old nun behind her.
"Sect Master An, Junior Sister Jing Nian, since this attack is aimed at my Buddhist sect, Shuiyue of the Zen sect are all my disciples of the Buddha, and they are both glorious and prosperous, so how can we ignore it?"
The four great monks looked at Master Jingnian behind An Ruyue, and seemed to realize the purpose of her coming.
The great monk frowned and said, "Junior sister Jingnian, you..."
The old nun closed his eyes and clasped his hands in meditation: "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Daxing Shenxuan sent a message: "Don't talk about this. Even if it is really you, I don't think you have done anything wrong. Nagu Rusu and Chen Shenxuan committed adultery. According to our Buddhist laws, they should be severely punished. You will wait."
Go up here, I am here, and I want to see what the Taoist will do to you."
After the great monk Daxing finished speaking, the great wise monk on the side grabbed his wrist, shook his head silently and said: "You have such a hateful character, and it is easy for people to get tongues wagging. This is in public, and we in Buddhism are the target of public criticism.
Don’t speak out without warning.”
However, the great monk said coldly: "If it weren't for this, why would my three senior brothers and I come?"
Jing Nian old nun just shook his head and stepped onto the high platform.
An Ruyue followed beside.
After the two went up, they looked around and saw Yuan Emperor Gu Xuannong and three Yuan Kingdom innates in the distance, sitting in the dark.
The four directions are people from various martial arts clans and sects in the Yuan Dynasty.
They stood up now, in full view of everyone, just waiting for the man to come and pronounce his sentence on Shuiyue An.
