Journey to the West: Moral Heaven

"Oh? For whom?"

Li Zhi said in surprise.

Chen E said: "Jinshan Temple presides over Faming!"

"Tell me!"

Li Zhi looked at Chen E in confusion.

Chen E bowed deeply: "I thought about it for a long time a few days ago. Although Fa Ming missed my son, there is always a teacher-student relationship. If I treat him harshly, my son may bear a bad name, so please forgive me! "

"Um"

Li Zhi nodded: "It's rare that Aiqing has such a heart, no matter what, I will spare him once!"

"Holy One is merciful!"

Chen E bowed again, and said: "Buddhism has always used many methods. Although the Holy One is the Son of Heaven recognized by the Dao of Heaven, Buddhism dare not reveal it, but it may not be able to secretly harm the Holy One. I think that the Holy One must invite gods to protect him." , so as not to catch it."

Li Zhi recalled that his soul was taken away by the underworld, even if Buddhism dared not harm him, who would want to go to the underworld every night?Or the Bodhisattva cast a little magic on him to make him suffer unspeakably, so he murmured: "Aiqing's words are reasonable, but I don't know any gods, can Aiqing recommend me suitable ones?"

Chen E knew that Li Zhi was simple and honest on the outside, but actually shrewd on the inside, he didn't dare to be fooled, and said honestly: "Yesterday, the three holy mothers and ministers said that they missed his elder brother, and the ministers asked the emperor to set up a shrine in Chang'an to worship him." , I thought about it, it just so happens that the holy majesty also needs the protection of gods, so I mentioned it to the holy majesty."

Li Zhi was obviously satisfied with Chen E's frankness, and said with a smile, "Who is San Shengmu's elder brother?"

Chen E said: "Erlang is a sage and a true king. This god has profound magic power and is unparalleled in battle. The Jade Emperor dare not give him a strong order. The six sages of Meishan under him are all strong in martial arts, and they all have the talent to stand alone."

"Oh? Zhenjun Erlang? Sanshengmu? So, there is a boss in his family?"

Li Zhi asked unexpectedly.

Chen E was very surprised by Li Zhi's ingenuity, and then sighed: "The boss of the Yang family is named Yang Zhao, and he is the eldest son of Fairy Yunhua and Yang Tianruo. The family of five was originally harmonious and beautiful, but unfortunately The good times didn't last long, because Fairy Yunhua went down to the realm privately, so the Queen Mother dispatched heavenly soldiers and generals to capture her. The father and son of the Yang family fought with him.

Brothers and sisters Yang Jian and Yang Chan escaped by chance and were rescued by Nvwa. They devoted themselves to practice and returned to the heaven to rescue their mother. The Jade Emperor was so angry that he released ten suns and sunned Fairy Yunhua to death. He turned his head to appease Yang Jian. Yang Chan named Yang Jian as Xiansheng Erlang Zhenjun, and Yang Chan as the Three Holy Mothers. The brothers and sisters had no hope of revenge, so they had to become wild gods in the lower realm. "

Li Zhi was silent for a long time, and then sighed deeply: "It makes me very angry, so will the Jade Emperor pursue the two brothers and sisters again?"

Chen E said: "How dare the thoughtful ministers of the immortal family think about it? But as far as I know, Erlang Zhenjun was originally sealed in Guanjiangkou. Appear."

"Oh?"

Li Zhi's eyes flashed slightly, he knew the number, and asked again: "I heard that there is a Yunhua Fairy Temple in Jiangzhou, but is that so?"

"Exactly!"

Chen E arched her hands.

Li Zhidao: "In that case, let Fairy Yunhua be invited to Chang'an to set up a sacrifice, and I will make Yang Jian the Qingyuan Miaodao Protector of the Country and the Holy Lord. Ai Qing will tell the Three Holy Mothers that if the Holy Lord can protect the fate of the Tang Dynasty." , I and future generations will keep him offering sacrifices!"

"The minister leads the decree to thank you!"

Chen E saluted deeply.

After leaving, Chen E immediately told Yang Chan about the incident. Yang Chan was overjoyed and gave back 250 moral points to Chen E. Immediately, she couldn't wait to pass the good news to Yang Jian who was still suffering in Jiangzhou.

"Oh?"

When Yang Jian received the letter, an uncontrollable joy appeared on his face.

"My lord, why are you so happy?"

Kang Anyu couldn't help asking.

Yang Jian was quite emotional, and said with deep meaning in his eyes: "Chen Zhuangyuan spoke to Emperor Tang and invited me to sit in Chang'an, and Emperor Tang has canonized me as Qingyuan Miaodao Protector of the Country and Demonstrating the Holy Lord!"

"Okay, okay, Chen Zhuangyuan insists on it!"

Zhang Boshi applauded loudly.

Li Huanzhang also stroked his beard and laughed, "Finally, I don't have to hunt wild food outside anymore. The sacrifices I offer are more delicious than the wild animals I brought here!"

The rest of the saints nodded.

Immortals also need to eat blood. When Yang Jian was in Guanjiangkou, he led his subordinates to fight. Although it could satisfy his hunger, it was just food. It didn't improve his cultivation, it only served to satisfy his appetite.

The offerings are different, embodying the pious beliefs and spiritual strength of the people, and they are foods with special bonuses. If you eat offerings for a long time, your morality and merit will increase accordingly.

Just like Bajie, after learning the scriptures, he was named the envoy of the altar. It seems to be a job of eating leftovers. All you can eat are offerings. You eat offerings every day. Most gods and Buddhas do not have this kind of treatment. Yuanwailang, a member of the Ministry, is a typical lowly and important position, and others can't ask for it. At least it is much better than Tang Seng's Zhantan Gongde Buddha and Wukong's fight against Buddha.

These two Buddhas are not enshrined, and no incense can be obtained. In terms of benefits, they are not as good as the Eight Precepts.

Yang Jian and his men seldom ate offerings at Guanjiangkou, but since they came to Jiangzhou, they had a lot of incense for performances, and they began to spend extravagantly. The taste of offerings was more than a hundred times better than that of wild food. The Dream Bubble Dafa performed by Avalokitesvara spread to them, and the incense was dwindling day by day, and the offerings were not enough to eat, so they had to make a living by beating again, and their life was dull and tasteless.

And now that he has received a letter of approval to go to Chang'an, how can he not be excited?

Seeing the excitement of his subordinates, Yang Jian waved his hand and said, "Don't be too happy, because Emperor Tang has decided to destroy Buddha, so when we go to Chang'an, we have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting Emperor Tang's safety, that is to say, There will be a conflict with the Buddhist sect, everyone thinks it through carefully before talking."

"No need to think about it!"

Kang Anyu waved his hand fiercely: "The Emperor Tang has issued an edict, if the true emperor does not obey the edict, wouldn't his reputation be weakened?"

"Not bad!"

Li Huanzhang nodded and said: "At the time when Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Emperor Wudi of the Northern Zhou Dynasty exterminated Buddhism, the Eastern land had not yet been unified, and the Western Buddhas could only watch helplessly and did not dare to intervene. Now that Emperor Tang is the Son of Heaven, how can Buddhism dare to directly To deal with him, at most we can do some small tricks in private, we just have to be careful, we will never confront Buddhism directly."

Zhang Boshi also said: "The great catastrophe will come in 3000 years. Without merit, how can we overcome the catastrophe? Moreover, the Tang emperor exterminated the Buddha. The common people have no Buddha to worship, so they are not allowed to come to worship the real king? This is a golden opportunity!"

The rest said yes.

"it is good!"

Yang Jian shouted loudly: "We are ready, once the temple in Chang'an is built, we will move there immediately and enjoy the incense offerings!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"The imperial decree has arrived, and the monks of Jinshan Temple will accept it!"

A group of soldiers and horses surrounded Jinshan Temple, and an eunuch held the imperial decree and shouted.

Headed by Faming, hundreds of monks were brought out and stood on the square in front of the Daxiong Hall.

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty has an imperial edict: Tangyu has no Buddha to seek national security, and Qiliang has temples, but those who lose their jobs are not in line with the way, but if they benefit the people and the country, they will have the heart of the Buddha, and those with the heart of the Buddha will be based on great compassion and peace. Hansheng will never be a slave to the people

Today, the world is stable, but monks are becoming more and more numerous, Buddhist temples are being worshiped more and more, laboring manpower for construction work, stealing people for gold and precious ornaments, leaving the king and relatives as teachers, violating spouses between precepts, breaking the law and harming people, nothing more than this Dao, and one husband does not have a field, some suffer from hunger, one wife does not have silkworms, and some suffer from cold, there are countless monks and nuns today, all of them wait for agriculture to eat, wait for silkworms to wear clothes, and temples recruit them. , are all cloud-constructed and decorated, impersonating palace residences, Jin, Song, Liang, and Qi, withered material resources, and deceitful customs.

I often feel pain in my heart, and when will I forget it, so I punished the source of the ages, became a law of hundreds of kings, benefited people and benefited everyone, and from the day the imperial edict came, Buddhism was abolished, scriptures and images were all destroyed, monks were banned, and ordered return to the people.All sexual sacrifices are also prohibited, and those not recorded in the rituals will be eliminated."

"what?"
