Journey to the West: Reform of the Underworld and the Start of Developing the Internet

"What? The Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark? Fengdu really wants to save face for the sake of worship!"

Yun Zhongzi was shocked. No wonder this junky thing can even connect to the sage's temple.

So the problem lies here.

"The Six Paths of Reincarnation lead to the heavens above and the netherworld below. There are only a handful of treasures in the Three Realms that can rival it in terms of communication. I have no other options."

After the initial anxiety, Xuandu is now a little bit ready to give up.

If he can't compete, then... rule by doing nothing.

"Are we just going to watch helplessly as the incense that originally belonged to us is taken away by the underworld?"

Yun Zhongzi was slightly annoyed, and was very dissatisfied with his senior brother Xuandu's inaction.

"The West is eyeing us covetously, and the underworld is now trying to seize the fortune of our Taoism. If we don't do something, how will our disciples look at us? How will the three realms look at our Taoism?"It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. One step back, every step back!

If we don't take countermeasures now, when mobile phones are truly popular in Dongsheng Shenzhou, it will be too late.

Even in Yun Zhongzi's opinion, the mobile phones of the underworld are even more terrifying than the Buddhist Journey to the West plan.

Incense and spiritual stones are allowed to be traded freely. The underworld is not only trying to collect the faith of mortals, but also plundering the wealth of monks.

In the long run, it is simply unimaginable.

After a while of thinking, Yun Zhongzi said:

"Simply lowering the price is no longer useful. If we want to reverse the current situation, we can only innovate."

Xuan Du asked puzzledly:"The Six Paths of Reincarnation is a genuine treasure. Unless the saint personally takes action, our communication talismans will always be inferior. How can we compete with it?"

"Indeed, we are not at an advantage in terms of communication, but the underworld is good at recording and communication, but not good at calculation."

"Now, all the monks in Dongsheng Shenzhou are like frightened birds, fearing that they will become the victims of others' fortune."

"There is yin and yang in this world, there is good and there is evil, yin and yang circulate, so that the order of heaven and earth can function normally"

"In order to maintain the stability of the incense market, it is time for us to make some changes to reduce the killing of creatures in the three realms."

"What do you mean, Junior Brother?"

Xuan Du suddenly felt that he could not keep up with his Junior Brother's thinking.

"The underworld has a book of life and death, so why can't the Taoist sect have a book of heaven's secrets?" Yun Zhongzi said confidently.

"Calculating the horoscope and predicting good and bad luck are what we are good at."

Xuan Du was slightly stunned, his mind was in a trance for a long time, and then he reacted!

"So... we need to forge a magic weapon for calculation!"

They don't have the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but if they want to refine some acquired spiritual treasures, wouldn't that be simple?

"That's right! The mobile phone launched by the underworld gave me a lot of inspiration. We only need to refine a special treasure for calculation, and we can sell the service to the monks to achieve the purpose of profit."

"Wonderful, wonderful, all actions of the cultivators are calculated by themselves, we are not involved in cause and effect, and we have solved the siege of the sect! It is really wonderful." Xuandu praised! He immediately took the responsibility and said:"We, the Human Sect, will be responsible for the refining of the magic weapon, and the other things will be handled by the Chan Sect, how about it?"

"Good!"

The two of them had a clear division of labor, and they hit it off immediately. They ended the communication immediately and started their own work.

Although the demon cultivators were hated by everyone in Dongsheng Shenzhou, everyone always paid attention to harvesting one crop after another and reaping the merits and luck in a cycle.

The underworld, the troublemaker, obviously broke everyone's tacit understanding.

Although there were many contradictions between the two religions, they had to stand together in the face of the dual pressure of Buddhism and the underworld.

……

Tang Dynasty!

Compared to the bustling Dongsheng Shenzhou, Nanzhanbuzhou was very peaceful. It was so peaceful that even Guanyin Bodhisattva had a bad feeling.

He quickly counted with his fingers, and his originally calm face suddenly changed.

"Oh no, the Emperor of Tang dared to destroy Buddhism, how outrageous!"

In order to make the Emperor of Tang surrender, Guanyin Bodhisattva played a little trick and gathered the locust plague that had just dispersed again.

Facing the locust plague, the Tang Dynasty, with an empty treasury, did proceed as she thought at first.

But since a small temple in Chang'an caught fire for no reason last night, everything has changed.

Just now, hundreds of thousands of treasures buried in the temple have been piled up in front of the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty.

"After a secret investigation by the Dali Temple, all the evidence and witnesses are now available at the Dafu Temple. The crimes committed are too numerous to list, which is enough to prove that Buddhism should be destroyed. My dear ministers, what else do you have to say about this?"

Li Shimin sat high on the throne, raised his eyes slightly, and spoke in a calm tone.

After waiting for a moment, seeing that no one present answered, he glanced at Xiao Yu:"Duke Song, do you have any objection?"

"Is Buddhism guilty? Think it over before you answer!"

When Li Shimin called out his name on the spot, Xiao Yu shuddered all over and knelt on the ground:"Your Majesty, I, your minister... I have no objection." As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yu collapsed to the ground as if his bones had been pulled out.

Faced with the various crimes collected by the Dali Temple, he could not refute them, and he understood Li Shimin's character even more.

Today, if he dared to say no, he would end up with blood spilled in the Taiji Hall.

Between his own life and his faith, he chose the former.

"Oh~ Should Buddhism be destroyed?"Li Shimin still didn't intend to let this old man go easily.

"Dang... Dang!"Xiao Yu closed his eyes deeply, his voice trembling.

"Good! Duke Song is indeed my loyal minister. This time, the Tang Dynasty’s anti-Buddhist campaign will be presided over by you personally. Please don’t let me down."

Li Shimin's knife-like gaze fell on Xiao Yu, who felt dizzy at the moment and fell to the ground.

However, he was quickly helped up by the generals behind him. Cheng Yaojin whispered enviously:"Duke Song, this is the credit given to you by the emperor for free. Why don't you accept the decree?"

Credit?

This is simply killing people and destroying their hearts.

Letting a Buddhist destroy Buddhism, is this still a human thing to do?

However, Xiao Yu did not dare to refuse.

Dragging his trembling body, he bowed again,"I accept the decree!"

Once the order to destroy Buddhism was issued, his identity as a Buddhist was over.

As Li Shimin issued the order to destroy Buddhism, Guanyin realized that it was too late. She kept calculating with her hands, trying to find out who was secretly against Buddhism.

Taoism, or the underworld?

Who dared to plot against them?

But in the end, she sadly discovered that the source of all the mistakes came from the wealth and greed of Buddhist believers.

It was the wealth of Buddhist temples that aroused the murderous intention of the Tang emperor.

Unexpectedly, her step-by-step pressure became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Guanyin sighed:

"This matter has been settled, so let's leave it to the Buddha Tathagata to make the final decision."

The whole matter was beyond her ability.

Even she could hardly reverse the decision of the Emperor of Tang.
