Four hundred and fortieth chapters wind and rain are coming
…
"Have you heard that the outsider invited by Juxian Pseudo-Buddha is about to hold a sermon in a border town and preach three new Buddhist teachings at once? He is really audacious and extremely arrogant."
Savatthi City, in a restaurant in the urban area, many people were whispering to each other.
There are also people who are talking loudly and making judgments.
But it is no surprise that these people all have a certain hostility towards the new Buddhism. When they discuss it, they are either angry or filled with righteous indignation, saying that they are incompatible with the false Buddhas and are incompatible with the new Dharma.
"Good guy...junior brother is really amazing."
Beside a dining table, Qingli grabbed a piece of dry biscuit, tore it into pieces and put it into the soup. He picked up a chopstick of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. After swallowing it, he continued: "He told the teacher before that he could learn from Buddhism and practice it."
When it comes to Confucianism, the teacher is still doubtful, thinking that foreign learning is not worth mentioning, and only dabbles in it, so that now he is neither above nor below, not even a minor sage. If the teacher could humbly study Buddhist scriptures with his junior disciples, I am afraid that now..."
"I'm afraid you've shaved your head now and changed Qingshan Academy into Qingshan Temple, right?"
Zhong Wen rolled his eyes at Qing Li.
"Pfft..."
Someone nearby laughed.
It was Liu Sandao who had a scar on his face. Next to him sat Tao Yao, dressed in black and disguised as a man.
Su Wen had caused so much trouble in the Royal Court of Rouran. After all, the two of them were worried about Su Wen's safety and tracked the old shaman. Finally, they learned from some grassland extraordinary people that Su Wen had been taken to the Buddhist Kingdom.
information.
After Zhong Wen and Qingli lost Long Aotian, they met the two of them on an oasis. After they recognized each other, Liu Sandao took the three of them to find the caravan that Daliang Kingdom had planted in the desert.
With the help of the team, he sneaked into Savatthi State.
It was only when they arrived at Savatthi City that they discovered that Su Wen had caused great trouble here again. The Buddhist kingdom, which had been peaceful for thousands of years, suddenly formed a torn opposition with the appearance of Su Wen.
The situation and the battle between each other are going on almost every moment.
On the day they entered Savatthi City, they saw several Arhats struggling at the top of the city. After asking the people who were watching, they found out that they were a monk. After listening to evil teachings, they suddenly had an epiphany and became Arhats.
But the temple where the monk was working quit, thinking that this new Arhat was a heretic and wanted to abolish his Buddhist practice. This Arhat was not willing to be captured without any help, so he fled while fighting, and was eventually surrounded on the top of the city.
Then several friends of the new Arhat came to help, and the two sides fought fiercely. In the end, both sides suffered casualties. The new Arhat finally escaped with the help of his friends.
This scene shocked several people.
However, they soon discovered that this kind of thing was not uncommon. They could see it several times every day, and they gradually became numb to it.
"If Dean Qian is ordained as a monk, what will you do?"
Liu Sandao said carelessly: "You can't let a Buddhist become the head of a Confucian academy, right?"
"Ah……"
Qingli gave Liu Sandao a cold look. This guy was such a fool, he even dared to make jokes about his mentor.
"The Buddhist Kingdom is no longer peaceful. We will leave after we find our junior brother."
Zhong Wen quickly finished the food in the big bowl, wiped his mouth and said, "We can't let these bald donkeys harm him."
"...Well, there is a saying. Su Wen has always been the only one who harmed others. How could anyone harm him?" Liu Sandao originally picked up a big bowl and was about to drink the leftover soup when he heard Zhong Wen's words.
However, he couldn't help but said: "Look, he went to Guixu. The lobster man's nest was exploded. He went to the Royal Court. It is said that Kunluo Great Chanyu has returned to Zuyuan Ranch to recuperate. Look again.
The current Buddhist country..." Liu Sandao recounted Su Wen's various behaviors as if they were family treasures.
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute."
Taoyao said with a bad look on her face.
"oh……"
Liu Sandao followed his example, picked up the big bowl, drank the remaining soup and water in a slurping manner, and even stuck out his tongue to lick the bottom of the bowl.
"Liu Sandao's words are rough, but Su Wen is really good at twisting things and won't get into trouble easily."
Although she could see the danger Su Wen encountered, she was the calmest among everyone.
She knows better than anyone how many trump cards Su Wen has.
Just the mysterious and terrifying walnut... Although she couldn't see where the walnut was, Tao Yao was very clear that once Su Wen faced a life or death crisis, the walnut would definitely protect him.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Liu Sandao's greasy, scarred face.
The scratches that Walnut left on Liu Sandao's face are still there, but they are so shallow that they are almost invisible.
But she knew that the scars left by walnuts contained terrifying power. Every time Liu Sandao encountered a danger that he could not overcome, it was the power left in the scar that reversed the crisis.
If she hadn't been in the form of a black smoke when she was at Qingshan Academy, she would have tried to find a way to let the walnut leave some strength on her face, so that when she encountered a strong enemy, she would give him an unexpected surprise.
"Border Town... we'll go there after we finish eating."
Zhong Wen dropped a piece of silver on the table, wiped his lips and said, "If I had known this, we would have stayed in the border town. Why go through this trip."
They also entered the pass from the border town and entered the Sravasti State from the Jingjue Kingdom.
At that time, people heard that there was a rebellious Arhat who was preaching the so-called "revolutionary Buddhism." Zhong Wen was quite interested and listened to the crowd for a while. As an extraordinary scholar with both Confucianism and Mohism, he felt that
What the True Mortal Arhat told him was very much to his liking.
If the war was not about to break out and Qingli dragged him away from the border town, he would have looked for an opportunity to have an academic discussion with this real arhat and explore the commonalities between Confucianism's universal unity, Mohism's universal love and non-aggression and revolutionary Buddhism.
What he didn't expect was that after going around in a circle, he would eventually go to the border town.
Qingli also said at this time: "Let me just say... When I listened to the 'revolutionary Buddhism', I felt that this statement was somewhat interesting, and felt that it was consistent with the 'revolution of heaven and earth' mentioned in the Ge Gua Tuan in the Book of Changes.
And the words "Four Seasons Completed, Tang and Wu Revolutions, Follow Heaven and Respond to Man" are quite consistent. Now that I think about it, this theory may have been tinkered with by my junior brother."
Everyone nodded and agreed with this statement.
"Now that he is making a big show of saying that he wants to preach more Buddhism in the border town, it will inevitably attract the intervention of the Lord Buddha. It is very dangerous, so we have to protect him!" Zhong Wen tightened his grip on the rusty machete in his hand.
"I said...don't roll your eyes at me."
Liu Sandao suddenly thought of something at this time, and hesitated before saying: "Su Wen said so many Buddhist teachings... How did these Buddhist teachings that have never been found in the Buddhist country come from?"
"What...what do you mean?"
Qingli glanced at him.
"What I mean is... could it be that he has been ordained as a monk and has achieved great enlightenment... If he escapes into Buddhism, will he still be considered your junior brother?"
Liu Sandao's voice was hesitant.
He wasn't deliberately looking for trouble, but he was worried about Su Wen.
The opposition between hundreds of schools of thought has become serious. On the surface, they are harmonious, but in private, there are many things going on.
And the gap between hundreds of schools of thought and Buddhism will only become deeper.
If Su Wen abandons Confucianism and joins Buddhism, what attitude will these two senior brothers from Qingshan Academy have towards him?
Should we let things go, or should we clean up the door?
"You think too much."
Qingli burst into laughter and said: "Junior brother is extremely intelligent and can learn from many others' strengths. The extraordinary path of the historian is his way out. Buddhist thoughts are too pure and egoistic, which is incompatible with his personality. He wants to suddenly understand the Buddhist path, which is very rare.
."
"Then how can he explain his sudden enlightenment on so many Buddhist scriptures?"
Liu Sandao felt a little relieved, but he still had countless questions in his heart.
"Heavens and humans have their own divine teachings." Qingli said calmly: "When the Shi family's extraordinary people are promoted, they can see a lot of mysterious knowledge that ordinary extraordinary people have when they are promoted. It is the blessing of Buddhism that my junior brother can obtain this knowledge and benefit Buddhism."
"All right……"
Liu Sandao was not satisfied with Qingli's explanation, but it was the only reasonable explanation.
After all, extraordinary historians are synonymous with magic, and nothing that happens to them is surprising.
"Taoyao, do you have a different opinion?"
Zhong Wen saw Tao Yao's strange expression and asked.
Taoyao shook her head and said she had no objection.
Of course she has opinions, but it's just impossible for her to say them out.
She could only accept half of Qingli's explanation.
She was more willing to accept that Su Wen was the favored one of Walnut and received a gift from this ancient mysterious existence, which enabled Su Wen to gain knowledge and power beyond the entire era.
Su Wen's Buddhist knowledge may have come from ancient times, and the true transmission of the true Buddha has long since disappeared, or it may be a trivial theory that Walnut came up with after pondering the principles of Buddhism.
Taoyao didn't care what the truth was.
…
border town.
A simple pulpit was built outside the city, but the surrounding area was crowded with monks, people, and untouchable untouchables listening to the teachings.
It's just that around this pulpit, people, regardless of high or low, are confused with each other, listening to the people on the pulpit preaching scriptures.
However, many monks relied on their extraordinary strength to squeeze out of the crowd to a favorable position, closer to Su Wen, or where they could see Su Wen clearly.
These monks all held something similar to writing seals in their hands.
Through such instruments, the Dharma preached by Su Wen can be spread in a timely manner.
It is not known who is listening to the Dharma on the other side of the instrument.
"In broad daylight, how dare you proclaim this false Buddha's teachings, preach heresy, and do the opposite!"
When Su Wen began to preach the Avatamsaka Sutra, someone suddenly rose up in the crowd and launched a sneak attack.
It was two Arhats who made a sneak attack, but they were stopped by the True Mortal Arhats. They were soon knocked unconscious by the Silver Light Bodhisattva and taken away.
Su Wen was not surprised by this.
He knows very well that as time goes by, more and more enemies will appear and they will become stronger and stronger.
The storm is coming, and the color of the sky and the earth will change.
