Zhu Tianjun, also known as Leifu Guan, the unbeliever, the evil witch who beats life and death, the black-faced god General Zhu.
He has a black face and sinister appearance, ringed eyes, red hair and raised head, a soap robe and golden armor, carrying an iron rod in his right hand, an iron rope in his left hand, carrying a soul-catching bag on his back, and straddling a black tiger.
Zhu Tianjun once made a great vow to eradicate the evil spirits and evil spirits in the world, save all kinds of people, and eliminate evil spirits and all things that harm the people.
Zhu Tianjun is the marshal of the Lei Mansion. He is in charge of the law of unbelievers in the world and helps us to establish the right religion.
In Bianhuang County, demons are raging and evil arts are rampant, which affects Zhu Tianjun's duties.
Zhu Tianjun's appearance as a saint was to promote Taoism and promote religion.
In other words, if Chu Chen and the Taoist mountain chiefs perform meritorious service in teaching and make the righteous path in the southwest prevail over the evil witches and demons, they will be rewarded by Zhu Tianjun.
"Chief of the mountain, I wonder what reward Zhu Tianjun will send down?"
Chu Chen couldn't help but feel curious.
"There have also been stories of Zhu Tianjun appearing as a saint in Dajiuzhou. In the past, Tianjun would reward meritorious deeds with golden light."
Qingzhu layman smiled, his face full of joy. As the head of the state Taoist temple, he is in charge of education. If the roads of border counties and counties where evil magic and magic are prevalent are really prosperous, and he has merit in preaching, he will also have merit.
.
When Chu Chen heard this, he immediately understood why layman Qingzhu was so happy.
Merit is also meritorious deeds, but the golden light of merit is condensed and formed by the rules of the Tao, and is not an illusory Yin Gong. Merit deeds are more rare and precious than ordinary meritorious deeds.
In the future, whether it is flying to the upper world and entering the netherworld, enthroning gods in the human world, or breaking through the realm, fasting and offering rituals, etc., the golden light of merit will be of great use.
Zhu Tianjun's appearance as a saint is a great benefit to the chiefs of all the great avenues in the eight southwest states.
Layman Qingzhu said with deep words:
"Ling Xiao, there is an expert from the Immortal Court doing divination this time. Zhu Tianjun is here for you, the county Taoist mountain chief, to give a lecture on scriptures and Dharma."
"It may take as little as seven or eight days, or as long as ten or so days, and the Heavenly Lord will give you a reward."
"There are still some days. During this period, preach and teach the Dharma well and try to get more golden light of merit. This will be very helpful for you to break through the realm of great supernatural powers in the future. This is a big opportunity and should not be missed."
The news that Zhu Tianjun, who controls the world and does not believe in Dharma, has appeared in the southwest has spread like wildfire.
Previously, the headmasters of various Taoist temples successively held sutra lectures and Dharma meetings in order to recruit disciples and promote the reputation of each Taoist temple.
As the work of recruiting disciples has been carried out one after another, most mountain leaders will no longer continue to give lectures on sutras for a long time, but will hold sutra lectures and Dharma meetings occasionally.
First, the Taoist mountain chiefs of each Taoist temple should focus on cultivating Taoist disciples.
Secondly, giving lectures every three days was too frequent, and the reserve of attainments in Confucian classics and alchemy was simply not enough, and it would not take long for them to be exhausted, and finally it became a cliché.
The best situation is that the water flows slowly, running the Taoist temple on weekdays, training disciples, and occasionally holding sutra lectures and Dharma meetings for Taoist friends from all walks of life.
But now, Zhu Tianjun, who controls the world's disbelief in the Dharma, is expected to appear as a saint and bestow "golden light of merit", which suddenly makes the situation even more lively.
The chiefs of the various monasteries, no matter what their background, showed their talents one after another, and used their skills to press the box, and once again held a forum to lecture.
As Juan Wang, Chu Chen was not in a hurry.
A sharpened knife will keep you from chopping wood,
Following the instructions of Senior layman Qingzhu, he rushed to the Wanquan Dao Altar and studied the Taoist annotations in the Immortal Court Treasure House.
Ordinary people sharpen their guns in battle, but they are of little use.
However, layman Qingzhu was very confident in Chu Chen's understanding. He unexpectedly studied the Taoist annotations of senior Taoist masters. He believed that Chu Chen would be able to improve his Taoism in a short time.
Chu Chen also has confidence in himself.
He has a high level of understanding and has a heart to help him understand the Tao. He can study the Taoist scriptures in the treasure house of Immortal Court. This is not a sharpening of skills in battle, but an ordinary accumulation of scriptures knowledge.
Before, Chu Chen had not thought of going to the Xianting Treasure House to exchange for the Taoist annotations left by the seniors of the Taoist sect, and he even consulted about it.
Annotation of a Taoist scripture, one can comprehend fifty immortal tributes once.
Moreover, there is a time requirement, and you can only meditate for one hour.
It is far different from the Taoist scriptures given by the Crown Prince at the Shanzhang meeting. They are the original Taoist scriptures and there is no time limit for meditating on them.
Comparing the two, Chu Chen simply ignored them.
In order to recruit disciples and make Wanquan Taoist Temple famous, he was a little reluctant to spend a large sum of immortal tribute.
The point is it's not necessary.
He has the magical power to teach Xiaguang [Heart-Complaint Divine Transmission]. Thinking about it, his preaching effect is the best among all the commanders and chiefs, as can be seen from the fact that he has successfully recruited a large number of disciples from the Taoist Academy.
Before, Chu Chen didn't pay much attention to this, thinking that as he steadily improved his attainments in Confucian classics, he would definitely be able to train the disciples in the courtyard to become talents in the future, so as not to mislead others.
But now, after hearing that Zhu Tianjun showed his sage and was expected to send down a golden light of merit, Chu Chen immediately changed his mind.
Many side sects, and even evil cultivators, are not born to follow the devil's path, but by mistake, they have transformed the orthodox Taoist mystical skills into a mess of devilish skills and evil methods.
Chu Chen had killed many demons in Qingzhou before and obtained their cultivation methods. He thought they were some evil magic skills, but what happened was that they were all superior immortal methods, such as the "Ancestor Chen Tuan's Hiding Dragon Technique" and "The Method of Slaying the Dragon".
"Spirit Sword Son", one by one they have mastered the magic skills, which is sad.
If a Taoist master preaches the scriptures and spreads the true Taoism and Dharma, allowing the monks from other sects and monsters to perfect their practice and convert to the right way, then it is a great merit and virtue, and it will be easy to win the favor of Zhu Tianjun, who will then give him rewards.
What's more important is that the fifth and sixth grade Taoists are among the masters and strong men in the world of spiritual practice, and they have the status of "preaching" teachers everywhere.
A monk who mistakenly enters a side sect and converts to the righteous Taoism means that a sect or a family behind him converts to the righteous Taoism.
This is a great merit in the eyes of Zhu Tianjun, who controls the world and does not believe in Dharma.
Chu Chen wants to educate Xia Guang in the Xin Temple. As long as his attainments in Confucian classics improve, he will hopefully teach the demon monks from the side sects of the fifth and sixth grades of Taoism and guide them to the right path.
In order to gain Zhu Tianjun's favor, Chu Chen was not stingy this time.
He had one hundred and forty immortal tributes on his body, and borrowed ten more from the senior layman Qingzhu. He collected the one hundred and fifty immortal tributes and directly exchanged them for three "Huangting Sutra", "Lingbao Sutra" and "Qingjing Sutra".
Commentary on the Book of Buddhism.
After some enlightenment, Chu Chen's attainments in Taoist scriptures greatly improved, and he began to lecture on the scriptures again, competing with a group of Taoist temple chiefs.
In a blink of an eye, half a month passed by.
During this half month, the eight southwest states were extremely lively, with sutra lectures and Dharma meetings happening one after another in various places.
Especially now that the tide of evil is sweeping across, many lower-level Dharma practices are becoming more and more difficult, and it is extremely easy to go astray. Those heretical and demonic monks are going to listen to the scriptures one after another, and the whole southwestern Dharma is booming.
At the entrance of Wanquan Taoist Temple, a group of side gates even appeared, where demon monks were stationed there. Among them, there were many masters of fifth and sixth grade Taoist cultivation.
"Shan Chief, you have been teaching more and more profound things about Taoism and Sutras in the past half month. Senior Brother Qingdu and I are having a hard time listening."
Fairy Rouyun said with emotion, a trace of respect flashed on her face.
"That's right, Master Shan. In the past half month, there have been thousands of monks stationed here to listen to the scriptures, including many of them who are of the fifth or sixth grade."
After the Qingdu Taoist Master finished speaking, he cupped his hands and congratulated: "This time the Heavenly Lord appears, the mountain master will definitely gain a lot."
Chu Chen smiled: "Thank you Qingdu Taoist friend for your kind words."
Rouyun and Qingdu showed envy on their faces. The golden light of merit is a good thing. If they have this thing, even if they die in battle in the future, as long as the Yin God does not fall, they will not have to queue up for the gods and fiefdoms. The benefits are self-evident.
"Chief Shan, when will you go to Yunzhou City?"
"When the Dharma Conference is over, I will rush to Yunzhou City."
After saying that, Chu Chen couldn't help but look forward to it.
After preaching the scriptures for a month, we finally arrived at the critical moment when the Heavenly Lord appears. Tomorrow, when Mr. Mingjing, the Heavenly Master, presides over the fasting ceremony to worship Zhu Tianjun, a golden light of merit will descend.
It is impossible to tell how the Taoist masters of various Taoist schools preach the scriptures, and people have different opinions.
But now, when the Heavenly King appears, everything will be clear. Whoever preaches the scriptures well will have more merits and golden light.
It's a mule or a horse, it's time to pull it out and run around.
