Just when Que Xuan's bloodline was awakening and things were going crazy, Yu Xian was also making final preparations.
If even Tao Qian can know his movements and send people to inquire about the news, then Zuo Rong, who has other plans for Xuzhou, will know faster.
Yu Xian's stance towards Buddhism was clear to Zuo Rong before.
Outside the city of Luoyang, Zuo Rong even teamed up with Zhilou Jiajue and An Shigao to secretly trick Yu Xian in an attempt to transform him into the Buddha of Great Freedom and Joy in Buddhism.
Now this Taoist priest came to Xuzhou during the most important Buddhist ceremony, and it was obvious that he wanted to cause trouble.
The collision between the two sides on the Buddha's Bathing Day has almost become a famous thing.
If he understood this, Yu Xian would not go there to pay his respects stupidly.
In addition to the trump card of the emperor's daughter Ba, Yu Xian had another trick up his sleeve. He used the new face of Xu Shu to set up an eight-door golden lock array outside the Futu Temple.
The diagram of the eight formations that Yu presented to Xu Shu was incomplete, but as long as he supplemented the materials at the key formation points when the battle began, Yu Xian could immediately activate the power of the eight-door golden lock formation.
As the Buddha Bathing Festival approaches, believers continue to come from all directions.
On the roadside to the Buddha Temple, people in ragged clothes were kneeling and worshiping everywhere.
When the day came, when Yu Xian and Xu Shu went to Futu Temple, they saw along the way, and Xu Shu couldn't help but feel emotional.
He asked Yu Xian calmly, "Uncle, do you know why so many ignorant people here are bewitched by Buddhism?"
Yu Xian had already thought about this problem.
"Because others have no way for them to go, they can only hope for the next life."
He thought about it and sighed.
"There are no stupid people in this world, and who would want to live in rags? They want to live a better life, but they have no hope... No one will be surprised if they do anything unintelligent."
Yu Xian thought of the thousands of people with their heads wrapped in yellow scarves and rushing forward in a daze, and he couldn't tell how he felt.
Aren’t all the mistakes that grow crazily because too few of the right things are done?
Yu Xian thought of this and glanced sideways at Xu Shu.
"What do you Confucians think?"
Xu Shu put his hands in his sleeves, with no expression on his face.
As soon as the two of them approached Futu Temple, a tall man in brocade clothes with a dark complexion and short beard stopped in front of them. It was none other than Zuo Rong, who had fought against each other last time.
When he arrived, Zuo Rong looked at Yu Xian for a few times, and said with a smile, "This Buddha bathing is a grand event for me in Xuzhou. The national master is a Taoist, so why come here to be boring?"
Yu Xian rolled his eyes, folded his hands and said, "What kind of Imperial Master? Xia Pixiang recognized the wrong person! Pindao is just an ordinary passerby. What? Can't you go in and have a look?"
Zuo Rong laughed after hearing this, and stretched out his hand to indicate, "In this case, it's not impossible for me to open the door for convenience."
Yu Xian plotted against Buddhism, how could Buddhism not plot against it?
For this grand event, hundreds of thousands of people have gathered outside Xiapi City in the past few days alone.
The strong belief and will of these hundreds of thousands of people is more useful than the Buddhist countries far away in the Western Regions.
When the two sides fall out later, if there are sentient beings willing to help, Yu Xian will inevitably be doomed.
Seeing Zuo Rong's confident look, Yu Xian felt a little nervous, wondering if the emperor's daughter Ba would be able to calm down the situation later.
As soon as I stepped into the Buddha Temple, I saw people kneeling everywhere, and two old monks with high noses and deep green eyes stood like mountains in front of the Nine Mirror Pagoda.
When the two old monks saw Yu Xian, they unexpectedly did not directly use the "teaching of other minds". Instead, they opened their mouths like a bell and spoke in jerky Chinese.
"I didn't expect that the Buddha of great freedom and joy would come here in person to help me in this grand Buddhist event. Please also ask the Buddha of great freedom and joy to return to his throne!"
As soon as the words fell.
The monks in the courtyard all knelt down and worshiped Yu Xian, as if they had practiced it for a long time.
——"Namo is the Great Self-Rejoicing Buddha!"
The people in the pagoda temple also knelt down one by one and chanted along.
——"Namo is the Great Self-Rejoicing Buddha!"
The people who were waiting expectantly outside the pagoda temple were at a loss. When they heard the name of Buddha being announced loudly in the temple, they began to pray one after another.
——"Namo is the Great Self-Rejoicing Buddha!"
The Buddha's image on Yu Xian's body was activated almost immediately.
The huge phantom of the Buddha loomed over him in the soft Buddha light.
Yu Xian had made use of the Buddha's Dharma many times before. Although he could not say that he could use his hands like an arm, he could still get a glimpse of the ways.
It was just that the image of the Buddha that jumped out at this moment made him feel completely unfamiliar.
At this moment, Yu Xian suddenly realized a difficult problem.
In the past, when he fought against the Buddha's Dharma, he relied on the mutual checks and balances between the Emperor and the Buddha's Dharma. But now, the Emperor and the Buddha are already on their way, so...
Will she come here to help him out?
Just when Yu Xian realized that things were a little out of control, Zuo Rong shouted to the two monks.
"What are the two venerables waiting for? Now is the time for the three Buddhas to stand side by side, open up the Taoism, and establish the Eastern Paradise World!"
Hearing Zuo Rong's words, An Shigao and Zhilou Jiajue, who had already planned it, did not hesitate and each released their own dharma bodies.
An Shigao had auspicious clouds and purple mist rising into the sky.
The Dharmakaya stands in mid-air, with eighteen arms and twenty-four heads. Each hand holds various Buddha treasures, including a necklace, an umbrella cover, a flower pot, a fish intestine, a blessed pestle, a precious file, a golden bell, and a golden bell.
Bows, silver halberds, flags, seven treasure trees, six tranquil bamboos, etc.
As soon as the dharma body came out, in an instant there was a chorus of celestial music, a misty fragrance, and thousands of golden flowers in an endless stream.
The Dharma body of Zhiluo Jiaxie stood on a huge lotus platform, with a huge sutra pillar behind him, spinning diagonally in the air like a tornado.
There are endless rosary beads surrounding it, passing left and right.
Under the radiance of the three Buddhas, the Dharma body of Yu Xian's Great Freedom and Joy Buddha also reveals a ferocious and muscular image, and the concubine wrapped around his waist is as submissive and submissive as death.
Seeing this scene, hundreds of thousands of believers inside and outside the Buddha Temple worshiped fervently and praised the names of the three Buddhas.
As these Buddhist believers chanted and worshiped, many invisible and insubstantial beliefs fell like drizzle, bathing the Buddha's body.
Yu Xian was stunned and felt strange.
Those endless prayers and wishes that washed away should have quickly eroded Yu Xian's thoughts and turned him into what they worshiped.
But Yu Xian's true feelings were just like when he was hiding in Guo Jia's dream. A large number of beliefs and prayers for sexual bliss were around him, and they disappeared out of thin air. Only a very small amount of wish power corroded Yu Xian's body and mind.
Zuo Rong was at a loss.
Seeing that Yu Xian was standing still, and the powerful Heavenly Concubine in the Great Self Joyful Dharma did not resist, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and laughed loudly, "I am using the luck of the National Master in you to open my Pure Land of Bliss!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Nine Mirror Tower responded, illuminating the bronze mirrors on all sides with a dim light.
For a time, the scene of three Buddhas standing side by side, bathing in the prayers of believers, appeared over Kyushu out of thin air.
