Chivalrous Song Dynasty

Wrong way?Bai Sheng felt a little funny. He recalled that when he entered the police station because of a fight before time travel, the policeman uncle said the same thing, young man, you have good skills, but it’s a pity that you went the wrong way.

The same earnestness.

But he doesn't accept it.

If he really wanted to accept it, he would only accept the advice given to him by the police in future generations, not the advice of the present woman.

After all, in the stable society of later generations, picking quarrels and provoking troubles and fighting are not commendable things. No matter what the cause is, they are all unstable factors that affect social harmony and should be controlled.But what time is it now?Now is a troubled time, and now is an era where the weak prey on the strong, and if you don't kill someone, they will kill you. No one can be alone.

Although there is a certain phenomenon of the law of the jungle in the society of the later generations, it is not like now, after all, the flames of war are raging, and the corpses are everywhere. Almost the entire land of China is in the midst of war.

In this era, I, Bai Sheng, choose to be self-reliant and self-protective. You say I am on the wrong path?

So he replied: "Sister-in-law, I can't understand what you said, what's wrong with me?"

I wanted to call her Auntie, but after thinking about it, it would be more appropriate to call her a younger woman, after all, this woman doesn't look old at all.

Unexpectedly, when the sister-in-law called out, the woman immediately became displeased, and said slightly annoyed: "Pay attention to your address, I have never been married to a husband in my life, why do you say something about it?"

The chubby boy glared at Bai Sheng, as if he might make a move at any time.

"Uh" Bai Sheng was speechless.How do I know if you are married or not?Who would have thought that a woman would still be a virgin at your age?And just because of your good looks, can't you attract the successful men of your era to chase after you?How could it be impossible to get married?

Suddenly remembered the observation method that Concubine Wei Xian had taught him, so he took a closer look at the woman's eyebrows, and saw that the eyebrows were flattened, celibate?Then I'm sorry.

The woman didn't pursue this matter any further, but returned to the main topic and said, "To say that you are on the wrong path means that you are too willful in your actions and don't know how to follow the way of heaven."

"The Dao of Heaven?" Bai Sheng has always been troubled by such high-level subjects. Thinking of the content of the exercises that Huang Chang asked his son Huang Kunpeng to recite, and the Tao Te Ching he saw on the rock wall behind the Xixia Palace, he said: "Yes. Is there more than enough damage to make up for what is not enough? That is why the emptiness wins the real, and the insufficiency wins the more than enough.”

The woman shook her head slightly, interrupted Bai Sheng's recitation, and the gentle spring breeze returned to her face, and said: "I guess you don't understand, so today I will tell you what is the way of heaven, what you said It's just a minor detail in the Dao of Heaven, and it cannot be said that what you said was wrong, but the fact is that what you said is very incomplete."

Speaking of this, a look of surprise that was not easy to be noticed suddenly appeared on her face, and at the same time she raised her head and glanced at the night sky.

This expression was fleeting, and when he lowered his head, he returned to his previous expression, and continued: "In fact, the way of heaven is the way of heaven and humanity, also called the way of immortality. It is the law and principle that represents the will of heaven. Among them, the way of heaven is not the only way of Taoism. My Buddha Tathagata once said that all things in the world are divided into three realms, and there are six ways in them, namely, the way of heaven, the way of Asura, the way of humanity, the way of animals, the way of hell and the way of hungry ghosts.”

When it comes to the way of Asura, Bai Sheng can see that he doesn’t understand. After talking about the six ways, he added: “Asura way, you can understand it as the way of demons. I tell you these six ways to tell you , the last five of the six realms must obey the heavenly realm, so the heavenly realm comes first."

The meaning of this is to say that the gods in the sky are the masters of all things in the universe, and the will of the gods is the way of heaven. As long as you are not a god, then no matter which one of the other five realms you are in, you have to obey the will of the way of heaven, and you must obey the will of the way of heaven. It is to obey the management of the gods.

The woman's preaching continued: "All countries in the world have sons of heaven. The so-called sons of heaven are the sons of heaven. Their power is given by the way of heaven. Once some of them do not follow the will of the way of heaven to do things and cause certain evil results, the way of heaven will remove their power and replace them with another group."

Like a math teacher in the classroom in the later generations, the woman finished explaining the theorem and began to give examples: "For example, in the current Liao Kingdom, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom is no longer suitable for the position of acting as Tianxunshou, so someone else should take his place. The way of heaven is the most reasonable. As long as you work diligently and rejuvenate the country, you can overshadow the future generations with the position of emperor. On the other hand, if you are promiscuous, ruin the government, and cause resentment among the people, then you are not suitable to continue to be in charge The world is over."

Having said this, the woman stopped, as if she wanted to give Bai Sheng some time to digest her theory, and also wanted to see how Bai Sheng would react.

When Bai Sheng heard the woman mentioning the words "I, Buddha, Tathagata", he suddenly realized that this woman is Guanyin Bodhisattva!Then think of the big black man outside the door and the boy with the hairy hair next to the woman. Isn't this the black bear monster and the red boy monster?

No wonder I felt that the black fur monster's black-tasseled spear was a hundred times as powerful as the Golden Wushu's Golden Sparrow Axe. This black-tasseled spear could clink with Monkey King's [-]-jin Ruyi Golden Cudgel for a long time, Is it too weak?

No, I remember Lu Dongbin once said that if he insisted on destroying Xixia, wouldn't they send Monkey King to destroy me?Why didn't Monkey King come, but Guanyin Bodhisattva came instead?This sequence seems to be a bit wrong!

Or if Guanyin Bodhisattva doesn't come, just let the red boy and the black bear spirit come over. I guess I'm also the one who was abused by others. Is it necessary for such a big fairy to come to me directly?

But since Guanyin is willing to reason with me, it means that she doesn't want to kill me. Since you don't want to kill me, then I will reason with you.

Thinking of this, I followed the woman's topic and said: "I understand what you said. Indeed, these countries decayed by themselves before being swallowed by others. I understand this, but this is what Bai Sheng told me. What does it matter? How can it be said that I did not obey the way of heaven?"

I, Bai Sheng, did not cause the corruption of the Liao Kingdom, nor did I, Bai Sheng, initiate and participate in the Jin Kingdom's plan to destroy the Liao Kingdom. This has nothing to do with me!

The woman nodded and said: "Since you also know that the Kingdom of Jin wants to destroy the Liao Kingdom, it is an act in accordance with the way of heaven, but you want to protect Yelu Yanxi who disobeys the way of heaven, and kill Brother Wanyan Zongwang who is in harmony with the way of heaven, what do you say? What position is this standing on? Is it in accordance with the sky or against the sky?"

Bai Shengxin said that you were waiting for me here, but he argued, "I don't care what goes against the sky, I only know that Yelu Yanxi is my father-in-law, and I only know that Wanyan Zongwang is going to kill him." Me, shouldn't I protect my loved ones? Shouldn't I kill my enemies?"

The woman seemed a little impatient, and said with a slightly cold face: "That's why I said that you don't understand the way of heaven, and you also ignore the way of heaven. What you need to understand now is that whether your actions are right or wrong, they are all grievances in human nature, but Didn’t I just say that? Humanity must obey the law of heaven, you have to protect Yelu Yanxi and kill Wanyan Zongwang, this is going against the sky!”

Chapter 934 Avalokitesvara

Although what the woman said sounded like the truth, Bai Sheng was still unconvinced, what's wrong with going against the sky?According to God's will, I have to stick my head out and let them cut it?Do I have to ignore my wife's pleadings and sit back and watch my wife's family and country perish?If it is necessary to do this according to God's will, then it is better to die directly, so as not to be ashamed to be killed by others!

Thinking about it, a rush of blood rushed into my heart, and I said loudly: "What if I go against the sky? At worst, I die! The three of you together killed me?"

"Bold!" Before the woman could open her mouth, the long-haired boy's spear had already been stabbed out. As the point of the spear entered, Bai Sheng felt a hot breath rushing towards his face. This heat is by no means unique in this world. , Even the molten iron in the ironmaking blast furnace can't reach this level. To be more precise, when the tip of the gun was still a foot away from his face, he could already feel the smell of his own scorched hair.

He yelled inwardly that he was not good, and hurriedly performed Lingbo micro-steps. This step was extremely dangerous. Instead of avoiding further away, he slanted around behind the woman, betting that the woman would not make a move. Kill him.

As long as the woman doesn't make a move, then his move is a very clever way to dodge, because it is impossible for the suspected flaming spear in the hands of the suspected red boy to stab the woman, as long as he does not stab the woman, then he can pull it back To go first, either continue to fight or continue to hide, which is much easier for him to dodge in any other direction.

"Shancai stop!" The woman ignored Bai Sheng who was hiding behind her, but stopped the boy, who was named Shancai.

"Oh!" The boy Shancai put away the gun as he said, and gave Bai Sheng a hard look, which clearly meant to say: Wait, don't let me meet you alone.

The woman turned around and saw that the smile on Bai Shengshi's face had disappeared, and said coldly: "I've explained the truth to you. Since you insist on not being reasonable, I won't force it. I might as well tell you clearly. You, my disciples and I will not hurt you, as long as you insist on going your own way, someone will punish you when the time comes."

Bai Sheng also sneered and said: "Let me tell you, no matter who comes to be my enemy, I can't ignore my relatives, and I can't let others kill me without fighting back, let alone Wanyan Zongwang's family, even It is you Black Bear Monster and Red Boy Monster who want to kill me, and I have to fight to the death with you! Although I, Bai Sheng, am not an outstanding figure, I am not a lamb to be slaughtered! It is impossible to be beaten and not fight back! "

Now that you've turned your back on me, there's no need to hide it. You should say whatever you want, anyway, everyone knows it.

The woman was taken aback, and said with a sneer: "So you already know the origin of this seat, and you are really witty, but it's a pity" Unfortunately, you are in the wrong team, and the woman did not say this sentence.

This woman is Nanhai Avalokitesvara, and the big black man is also the black bear monster in the Black Wind Cave in Heifeng Mountain. The Holy Infant King, the red boy demon, is now the boy of good fortune sitting down by Guanyin.

Not long ago, the sinking of Xingkong Island alarmed the Heavenly Court, and naturally it also attracted the attention of Guanyin Bodhisattva. When Bai Sheng comes out, his martial arts will skyrocket, and he will go to assist the Liao Kingdom in fighting against gold.

It is said that the Jin Kingdom’s extermination of the Liao Dynasty was caused by the corruption and degeneration of the nobles of the Liao Kingdom, who intensified their enslavement of the Jurchens, which finally led to the Jurchens’ resistance. At this time, the Liao Kingdom has become corrupted and has become an empty shell, and there is no such thing as it used to be. It is also reasonable that Yelu Abaoji's combat power when he was in command of the eight tribes of Khitan was defeated by the brave and united Jin people.

It stands to reason that this is a war caused by the long-term accumulated grievances and grievances between two countries and nations. It is an armed struggle in which a rising power pushes a decadent ruling class. Such a war had nothing to do with Buddhism originally. But the truth is not so simple.

Today's Liao Kingdom is a multi-religious country, but it was not like this at the beginning. At the beginning of Yelu Abaoji's founding, the Khitan people believed in witchcraft, which is the Shamanism of later generations.

Wujiao helped the eight tribes of Khitan grow from small to large, from weak to strong, until the establishment of a country, and naturally they had to share the fruits.However, any emperor is unwilling to distribute the fruit to a sect, even if this sect has helped him a lot in enthroning and establishing a country, so he focused on suppressing it.

Suppressing one dominant shamanism freed up space for other sects in the world, so sects such as Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism took the opportunity to enter the Liao Kingdom, and took root in the land of the Liao Kingdom. Not to be outdone, the nuns entered the Liao Kingdom to develop their followers.

Later, the religious structure formed was that there were at least nine religious sects in the Liao Kingdom, and each of these religions had its own believers, and the nobles and commoners of the Liao Kingdom also had their own beliefs.It is known in history that the nine religions contend for the current.

Although the Liao Kingdom opened its doors to various religions and adopted an eclectic religious policy, the three schools of Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism must eventually develop and grow. There is no other reason. The emperor of the Liao Kingdom believed in these three schools the most.Do you dare not follow the emperor's faith?

The emperors of the Liao Kingdom all admired Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism very much.Advocating Confucianism is reflected in building Confucian temples all over the country; believing in Taoism is reflected in subsidizing Taoism to build Taoist temples, and among the three religions, Buddhism is particularly believed because they invested heavily in building Guanyin Temple on Muye Mountain.

Muye Mountain is the birthplace of Yelu Abaoji and the Khitan people. It is a sacred mountain in the hearts of Liao people. It was originally controlled by witchcraft.The construction of the Guanyin Temple here shows that the emperor of Liao Kingdom believed in Buddhism.

If the Liao Kingdom has maintained its original attitude towards Buddhism until today, then even if it has become rotten, Guanyin Bodhisattva will not have any aversion to it, at least it will not "follow the way of heaven" to help Wanyan Zongwang escape.

The problem lies with Bai Sheng's father-in-law, Yelu Yanxi.Yelu Yanxi is the only emperor in the history of the Liao Kingdom who believed more in faith than in Buddhism. This may have been influenced by Zhao Ji in the Song Dynasty. In short, he is the most Taoist among the three schools of Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism.

He not only believed in Taoism himself, but also named his grandfather Yelu Hongji as "Taoist". Everyone only said that Yelu Hongji was a generation of emperors who both believed in Buddhism and Taoism, but Yelu Yanxi didn't say that. It is said that when his grandfather Yelu Hongji was in power, he had more beliefs than Buddhism.

Yelu Yanxi not only listed the various benefits of Taoism, but also the various disadvantages of Buddhism. He also abolished the special expenses fixed over the years for repairing the Guanyin Temple in Muye Mountain on the grounds of the empty treasury and financial constraints. It is necessary to demolish the Guanyin Temple and build a Taoist temple, but building a Taoist temple also costs money. In his era, the treasury of the Liao Kingdom really had no money, so in the end, the Guanyin Temple was not demolished and the Taoist temple was not built, just in time for the rise of the Jurchen Wanyan Aguda , After one battle after another, this matter was put aside.
