If too many crops are planted on a piece of land, it will become increasingly barren, food will no longer be able to grow, and crops that were originally growing well will have to stop growing.
How to do it?
Someone has thought of a way. Wouldn't it be better to cut down more than half of the crops and throw them into the ground to be used as fertilizer?
In this way, with new fertilizer supply, those crops that are growing well can achieve high yields.
This is the situation facing the fairy world now.
There are too many monks, and the spiritual energy of the immortal world is consumed in large quantities, and the spiritual pressure is reduced, causing the ancestral veins of the Nine Provinces to turmoil, seep outward, and have a tendency to burst the blood vessels.
Shiji is now blocking the vent of the ancestral veins at the foot of Wuling Mountain, and the situation has temporarily eased. However, how long can this method of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause persist?
As the spiritual pressure of the immortal world further decreases, the osmotic pressure of the ancestral veins to the outside will become greater, and it is uncertain how many places like Wuling Mountain will appear.
When the Jiuzhou Ancestral Veins exploded, it affected the entire immortal world. The violent ancestral vein aura swept across the immortal world. It was unknown how many monks would be affected and how many mortals would die.
So, we still have to find a way.
And this method is to restart the calamity.
After a great battle, the cultivation of the vast majority of monks was returned to the world. In this way, the spiritual pressure of the immortal world was balanced and the turbulence of the earth's veins was suppressed.
Moreover, war can also balance the fortunes of all parties, allowing the major forces to reshuffle their cards and redistribute their interests.
The last battle of calamity measurement and interpretation was based on this principle.
After the war, the fairy world did live a stable life for a long time.
Later, when Buddhism and Taoism flourished, the land was divided into many plots, all of which were covered with crops and the growth was gratifying.
There is one part of Heaven, one part of Buddhism, and one part of Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. Everyone’s crops are growing well, but anyone with a discerning eye can see the hidden dangers.
There is not enough fertilizer.
What should I do? Is it necessary to fertilize crops again?
Okay, then who should be chopped?
Of course, I don’t want to cut down my own crops. It’s better to cut down other people’s crops. I also hope that these crops will have a good harvest.
Therefore, several forces have started fighting openly and covertly, and they all want to cut down other people's crops to make fertilizer.
Fighting is inevitable.
Of course, there are also some forces who are interested not in the crops in the field, but in the land itself.
Buddhism was also eager to try at this time. Lingshan Buddha convened an emergency meeting of ten thousand Buddhas, convening all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhat Vajras above Da Luo Jinxian for a meeting.
Heaven has started a war with the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons. Should Buddhism intervene at this time? If so, who will it help?
On the surface, Buddhism and Heaven have a very close relationship. They are good neighbors and friendly. We are all good friends. We even went on a journey to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures. We borrowed fertilizers from each other to meet our urgent needs. But when it comes time to cut down crops, we must also have to do it.
Face-breaking.
In the world of spiritual practice, there is no such thing as loyalty.
"Buddha, my disciples feel that the current situation is unclear, so Buddhists should not come forward easily, sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait for the situation to change!"
"Disciple agrees, there are two Heavenly Hunyuan strongmen behind Heavenly Court. If there is a real fight, Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom will definitely not be the opponent. At this time, it has not affected the Taoist and Buddhist sects. If the Buddhist sects come forward at this time, I am afraid that they will be dragged into calamity immediately...
"
"Let them fight and let us be the fishermen who profit, isn't it great?"
…
Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, each of you expresses his or her own opinions.
But everyone's opinion seems to be that they still don't want to go into this muddy water.
The Buddha sat on the lotus throne, very calm, and just listened quietly to everyone's opinions.
After a long time, he turned his gaze to the side and asked Tang Sanzang, the meritorious Buddha sitting next to him, "Sanzang, what do you think?"
Tang Sanzang has not expressed his opinion just now.
At this time, when I heard the Buddha's roll call, I couldn't hide, so I quickly announced the Buddha's name, "Buddha, my disciples dare not speak falsely!"
"But it doesn't matter!" said the Buddha.
"yes!"
Tang Sanzang responded, "Disciple feels that this opportunity is once in a lifetime, and our Buddhist sect should respond and choose the right time to join the war..."
Join the war?
The Buddhas were stunned. They thought Tang Sanzang would have the same opinion as them, but they did not expect that he would suggest joining the war.
Is this still Tang Sanzang? Is this still the benevolent Tang Sanzang?
"Oh? Tell me, why?"
The Buddha did not express his opinion, but asked Tang Sanzang the reason.
Tang Sanzang clasped his hands together and said, "The saints of the Hunyuan Realm of Heavenly Dao will not suffer calamities, and the strong ones in the Hunyuan Realm often have the ability to protect themselves. When calamities are measured together, they will not take action unless it is a last resort. The Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom has endured for many years."
, how much strength they have now, Heavenly Court doesn’t know, and I, the Buddhist sect, don’t know either, but since they dare to go to war with Heavenly Court, they must have a certain amount of confidence..."
"Besides, although there are two strong men in the Hunyuan Realm of Heavenly Dao standing behind the Heavenly Court, the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom is not simple. Those two Sansheng are also from the demon clan. I am afraid they will not sit back and watch the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom be destroyed...
"
"So, both sides will have scruples. In the final analysis, the monks below the Hunyuan realm will reshuffle the cards during this calamity. We Buddhists cannot be immune to ourselves, and sooner or later we will be dragged into the water..."
"Instead of being passively dragged into the water, it is better to take the initiative from the beginning. At this time, the three sects are working hard. They only need to unite with one party to absolutely suppress the other party, just like the dispute between the Three Puritans sects back then..."
"Buddhism must take the initiative and become the party that controls the war situation. Otherwise, if Heavenly Court and the demon clan are fighting each other and suddenly get together and join forces to attack our Buddhism, then..."
"Of course, the probability of this happening is very small, but there is no guarantee that someone will scheme like this. At this time, you must be especially careful!"
…
Everyone was a little angry at first, but when they heard this, their faces showed solemn expressions, and they stopped talking, waiting for the Buddha to express his position.
The Buddha pondered for a moment, "Then from Tripitaka's point of view, if our Buddhist sect wants to intervene, which party should we help?"
There is no need to ask, of course it is heaven.
Buddhism and Heavenly Court are already friendly, and behind Heavenly Court there are two saints in the Hunyuan Realm of Heavenly Dao who have very clear attitudes. Who else can we help if we don't help Heavenly Court?
Can we still help the demon clan?
You must know that Buddhism has been shouting and killing the demon clan in recent years, and the relationship is as tense as the heaven. If you go to help the demon clan at this time, how can you overcome this hurdle in your heart? What will the believers think?
Buddhism has always claimed that it is the duty to conquer demons. Now if you want to fight against the demon clan, you have to create some public opinion first, right?
All the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas looked at Tripitaka.
Since traveling to the west, Tang Sanzang returned to Lingshan, and Buddha paid more and more attention to his opinions.
At this time, Tang Sanzang said, "No matter who you choose, you have to choose a side. As for which side to choose, I believe that the Buddha already has the answer in his heart!"
