The first thousand and fifteen chapters of the abnormal Taoist saint
On the top of Kunlun Mountain, in front of the Taoist Palace, seven figures floated down.
Under the leadership of Zhuang Zhou, a group of mermaids passed through the front and middle halls and reached the back mountain.
As usual, the Taoist sage sat cross-legged on the grass, closed his eyes and meditated, wandering in the sky, and a transcendent charm emerged spontaneously.
Under the leadership of Zhuang Zhou, everyone saluted to the Taoist sage and said loudly: "Disciple (junior monk, below) pays homage to the teacher (Taoist sage)."
The Taoist sage opened his eyes, first nodded to Zhuang Zhou Linze and others, then glanced at Meng Ke, Maitreya and Ksitigarbha, and frowned slightly: "Zhuang Zhou Linze, why did you two bring all the Buddhist and Confucian Taoist friends here today?
Already?"
Zhuang Zhou immediately replied: "Reporting to the teacher, my junior brother is always good at eloquence, so it is better for him to explain to you."
You are the eel. Lin Ze rolled his eyes at Zhuang Zhou, with a smile on his face, he bowed his hands and said, "Teacher, this is a long story..."
In the middle of the conversation, Taoist Saint interrupted: "Then sit down and talk slowly. Speaking of which, I haven't seen you for a few months. There are some things that we should have a good chat about."
Lin Ze chuckled and said, "I will obey my master's orders."
After Lin Ze finished speaking, he found a relatively clean piece of grass not far from the Taoist Sage, sat down calmly facing the Taoist Sage, and at the same time greeted Meng Ke, Maitreya and others, saying: "You guys find a place to sit on your own. My master is a kind-hearted person and very kind-hearted."
It’s easy to get along with everyone and you don’t have to be too restrained.”
As if to cooperate with Lin Ze, Tao Sheng showed a kind smile just right, like a kind old grandfather.
Sit on the ground?
Meng Ke, Maitreya and others looked at each other, looking a little helpless and a little angry.
When treating guests normally, is there any reason to ask them to sit on the floor?
The resentment only stayed in the minds of the three of them for a short time. As the saying goes, if a person is under the roof and faced with saving his life, what does it mean to be slighted and wronged?
Don’t you see that the Taoist saints are all sitting on the ground? Just think that the Taoist palace behaves like this, and you are just doing as the Romans do.
The three of them looked respectful and bowed their hands: "I didn't expect Taoist Saint to be so approachable. We admire him."
The three of them then found a place with relatively lush flowers and plants, and sat down calmly, not caring about the dust getting on them.
Lin Ze had a panoramic view of the performance of the three of them, and said slowly to the Taoist Saint: "While the teacher was in seclusion in the Taoist Palace, many things happened."
"A year ago, the Buddhist giant Buddha Guanyin disappeared without any reason. It was suspected that something had happened to him. Some clues were left behind, which vaguely pointed to the Buddha as the murderer."
"Some time ago, the Confucian sage Yan Hui disappeared. It has been confirmed that he encountered an accident. The sage Meng Ke suspected that the Confucian sage was responsible."
"After these two incidents happened, the Buddhist and Confucian people were panic-stricken. In order to save their lives, they had no choice but to seek refuge in the Taoist palace."
The Taoist sage frowned and suddenly interrupted: "Master, listen to your words. Unfortunately, the Confucian sage Buddha lost his holy position, so he lost his mind and went crazy to kill his own disciples?"
Lin Ze nodded seriously and replied: "The disciples have no way of knowing whether the Buddha and the Confucian saints lost their minds. However, I think it is not impossible to say that they are crazy."
The Taoist sage said disdainfully: "It's nonsense."
Lin Ze coughed slightly, pointed at Meng Ke and Maitreya and replied: "This is not just a rumor. If the teacher doesn't believe it, you can ask them who have experienced it personally."
"If they were not on the verge of despair, how could several Buddhist and Confucian Taoist friends be willing to bear the infamy of betraying their sect and seek refuge in the Taoist palace in exchange for the protection of Senior Brother Zhuang Zhou?"
Upon hearing this, the Taoist sage looked at Meng Ke, Maitreya Ksitigarbha, pointed at Meng Ke and said calmly: "Meng Ke, tell me why your teacher, the Confucian sage, wanted to harm you?"
When Meng Ke heard this, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, he lowered his head and whispered back: "Report to the Taoist Saint, and we will return to the same Taoism."
As soon as Meng Ke said these words, Taoist Saint's originally calm expression suddenly turned cold, and he said in a stern tone: "Are you serious about this?"
Meng Ke bowed his hands, sighed slightly and said: "My master had the gift of enlightenment from Meng Ke. Although he is a master and disciple, he is better than his father and son. If my master had not wanted to go against the grain, how could Meng Ke betray him?"
The Taoist sage's attitude completely changed, and he said in a cold tone: "You don't have to say it, I know it in my heart, and I will find out the truth when I turn around. If your Confucian sage really dares to practice such evil methods, I will die for your fellow disciples.
Seek justice.”
"If I find out that you deceived your master, destroyed your ancestors, and slandered your mentor, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will personally send you to reincarnation."
"Meng Ke, you must think clearly. If you are really sent to reincarnation by my own hands, I am afraid that you will never be able to recover. If you are not sure about some things, it is still too late to change your mind now."
The Taoist sage's last sentence hinted at the suspicion that Meng Ke was lying.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Taoist sage, it would be difficult for the Confucian sage to make such a stupid move.
Meng Ke felt as if he had been greatly insulted when he heard this, and said angrily: "If the Taoist sage doesn't believe me, I can send you to reincarnation now, why wait until later?"
"My master intends to join the Taoist movement, and the Buddha also plotted to kill eminent Buddhist monks. If all saints are like this, I doubt the Taoist saint..."
The Taoist Saint suddenly glanced at Meng Ke coldly. Meng Ke felt that a disaster was coming. He was completely silent and couldn't say anything else.
Lin Ze, who was sitting aside, understood. When Meng Ke saw that the Taoist sage defended the Confucian sage, he actually suspected that the Taoist sage was like him and secretly plotted to return to the same path.
Taoist Saint's reaction was extremely violent, and it was a bit more of a cover-up.
To be honest, since the first time he heard from Meng Ke that his Taoist disciples had returned, Lin Ze had suspected that Taoist Saints also had this tendency.
After all, Zhuang Zhou was secretly promoted to the saint realm after waiting for him to descend from the sky.
Even a heavenly person like Lin Ze, who has a weak foundation in the Dao, knows that it is extremely dangerous to advance to the saint realm. If there is someone to protect the law, the safety factor will be much higher.
Zhuang Zhou would rather take the risk than ask the Taoist sage to protect him when he ascended to the saint realm. If there was something fishy in it, Lin Ze would not believe it even to death.
Suspicions were suspicions. Lin Ze did not intend to investigate further until he had the strength to resist Tao Sheng's attack.
So when Meng Ke suspected Taoist Saint, Lin Ze didn't show any abnormality on his face and pretended not to hear Meng Ke's hidden meaning.
Besides, if a Taoist saint wants to advance to the transcendent realm through the evil method of returning to the same way, the first target must be Zhuang Zhou, who is in the saint realm. There is no reason to "replenish" Lin Ze, who is a weakling with such strength.
While Lin Ze was thinking wildly, the Taoist Saint turned his cold eyes to Maitreya Ksitigarbha and said indifferently: "You two suspect that the Buddha harmed Guanyin?"
Although Maitreya Ksitigarbha was frightened, he still bravely replied: "The two young monks dare not speak nonsense. Avalokitesvara's cultivation is not weak. Except for the saint, I am afraid no one can kill it silently."
"A year ago, Taoist Saint was in seclusion in the Taoist Palace. Obviously he could not be the murderer. Zhuangsheng had countless opportunities to kill us before, and there was no enmity between him and Avalokitesvara, and he would not waste any time. He would let go first and then kill us.
."
"The Master of the Confucian Sage Tongtian Sword has lost his holy position and his strength is not as good as before. If he wants to kill Guanyin, who is good at medicine, he may not be able to do it."
"After screening all the way, the only person who has the strength and motivation to kill Guanyin is the Buddha. After all, not long ago, the three of us betrayed the Buddhist sect and established our own sect, which has already offended the sect. It is really reasonable for him to clean up the sect."
"As for whether the World Honored One killed Avalokitesvara purely to vent his anger, or to return to the same path, I dare not say for sure."
"The Dao Sage's vision of the two young monks is far higher. I wonder what the Sage thinks?"
Lin Ze secretly praised after hearing this. These two monks were quite capable. In just a few words, they actually kicked the ball back to the Taoist Saint, perfectly avoiding falling into the same situation as Meng Ke, who was forced by the Taoist Saint Dudu.
The Taoist Saint glanced at the two of them coldly: "This matter concerns the Buddha. I will find a way to find out the truth. If it is the Buddha, that's it. If it is someone else, I am worried that evil demons will appear in the world."
"If an evil demon comparable to the saint is born, it is very likely that a bloody storm will occur in the world."
Zhuang Zhou said in surprise: "Evil demons? Teacher, weren't all the evil demons eliminated by that person tens of thousands of years ago?"
The Taoist Saint sighed quietly: "Who can guarantee that no new evil spirits will appear in tens of thousands of years?"
