Zhu Wushi has no ill feeling toward Buddhism. He has seen real eminent monks who really practice Buddha's mercy, Buddha's salvation, unity of knowledge and action. Although his strength is not high, he also admires it.
Chapter 226 Ultimatum!
"You are chanting mercy in this copper temple, where is the mercy, are you blushing?"
Zhu ignored the mockery on his face:
"You say mercy, but when you press the rent to collect debts, why do you think of 'mercy'?"
"One day, when one of you goes to the Western Paradise, will the Buddha still recognize you? Will you treat him as a demon and goblin and directly suppress him?"
Fang Zheng sighed: "Could it be that Master Zhu has enmity with my Buddha?"
Zhu Wushi took a deep look and said, "I have no enmity with Buddha, but Shaolin Temple is not equal to Buddha. Thousands of tenants in Shaolin Temple who are exploited by you have enmity with Shaolin Temple."
"Zhu benefactor's words are wrong, Shaolin Temple gave them a bite to eat."
clap clap~~
Zhu Wushi clapped his palms lightly, and said with a smile: "What a stealthy idea! But the tenants of your Shaolin Temple are living in more hardship than the tenants in other places. You wear cassocks and gild the body of the Buddha. You don't have to give birth, don't do business. Working, abiding by clear rules, sitting in precepts, but eating human flesh and blood, the golden body of the Buddha is coated with the blood and sweat of farmers."
"If it is truly compassionate, tenants in Shaolin Temple should live a little better than tenants in other places? How do you explain this? Why! Shaolin Temple, which promotes compassion! Tenants actually live in more hardship?"
Fangzheng bowed his head, just 'Amitabha', he didn't answer, maybe he didn't dare to answer, and he couldn't answer.
clang!
Zhu Wushi slapped the small Buddha statue hard, and slapped the small Buddha statue into a depression: "How much manpower and material resources do you need for such a copper temple with tens of thousands of delicate gold-plated small Buddha statues?"
"When the Buddha became a Buddha, he walked barefoot in tatters, ate a variety of meals, wore a variety of clothes, used the ground as a bed, and the sky as a quilt. He meditated under a tree and refused to be extravagant."
"Come to you, well-dressed, well-dressed, jogging horses in the temple to light incense, add oil in the middle of the night, burn incense day and night, arhats made of copper, dharma body plated with gold, extravagantly serving Buddha."
"If Sakyamuni is here! Maybe he will destroy the Buddha with his own hands!"
Fang Zheng shook his body, his face paled a little: "Si Jingwu, what do you want!"
Zhu Wushi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the small Buddha statues one by one.
After all Xiao Feng grew up in Shaolin Temple, he couldn't bear it, but now he is sitting upright, leaning towards the imperial court, he said in a deep voice: "The imperial court will not destroy Buddha."
Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"First, Shaolin Temple disbands [-]% of the monks!"
The monks in Shaolin Temple who hit the first stick were dizzy, and some monks couldn't help saying: "This condition is too harsh!"
Duan Tianya said coldly: "This is a notice, not a discussion with you!"
"Benefactor Xiao, let's continue." Fang Zheng said.
"Second, return [-]% of the fertile land!"
Fang Zheng sighed and said: "Benefactor Xiao, this is the ancestral property of the Shaolin Temple. Ninety percent of it is deprived. The Shaolin Temple can't even offer the sesame oil in front of the Buddha. The monks are afraid they will starve to death."
Xiao Feng continued: "Thirdly, all monks who become monks must be ordained and registered in the register, and it is not allowed to shave privately and be accepted into the temple."
"Fourth, all monks under the age of 60 must pay taxes!"
Fang Zheng's figure was already crumbling.
These four conditions are almost the same as exterminating Buddha.
What is a ultimatum?
The ultimatum contains details of monks and nuns' native places, common names, ages, monasteries they belong to, names of teachers, and joint signatures of those who are related to the government.
Monks and nuns hold a degree card, which can clarify the status of a monk, can get the protection of the government, and can also be exempted from land tax and remote labor.
Now the monks who hold the ultimatum are not exempt from tax.
If this continues, how many people are willing to be monks?
Many people become monks for tax exemption.
Just this one condition put an end to the idea of becoming a monk for the vast majority of people.
After the four conditions were finished, hundreds of monks in the copper hall fell silent.
"Benefactor Xiao."
Fang Zheng looked at Xiao Feng, with the intention of praying, and asked him to see if he could spare the old relationship.
"This is formulated by His Majesty, iron law." Xiao Feng shook his head and said.
Zhu Wushi waved his hand: "Okay, the ultimatum has been given to you, and you are only given one day to think about it. After one day, either destroy Shaolin Temple, or I will take over and inspect the fertile land of Shaolin Temple."
After all, everyone in Jingwu Division left without dragging their feet.
…………
"Brother Fangzheng! It's just too deceiving!"
"Yeah, when did Shaolin Temple suffer such grievances!"
"Can't agree to the conditions of the imperial court. What is the difference between such conditions and extermination of Buddha?"
"Inverted!"
"Da Ming can't stay anymore! Let's go to the Northern Song Dynasty!"
Fang Zheng turned the beads quickly in his hand, turning into a phantom, faster and faster...
wow~~
Buddha beads scattered.
He glanced at the monks in Shaolin Temple: "Resist, how can Shaolin Temple resist? Thousands of monks? Hit a stone with an egg."
"As for going to the Northern Song Dynasty, does Shaolin start from scratch?"
"After all, the imperial court did not kill them all. They took over [-]% of the fertile land, and there are still [-] mu."
"Brother Fang Zheng, do we just agree?"
"So what if you disagree?"
Silent.
…………
"Lord Xiao, you used to be the leader of the beggar gang, you are fully responsible for the affairs of the beggar gang, how about it?"
Xiao Feng was startled slightly, hesitant.
"Lord Xiao, what are you hesitating about? Missing old feelings? At least for now, what you are asked to deal with is not the Northern Song Dynasty's Northern Beggars' Gang, but the Ming Dynasty's Beggars' Gang."
The Northern Beggars' Gang was in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Beggars' Gang was in the Southern Song Dynasty. In fact, there were also Beggars' Gangs in Daming, but they were looser and closely related to the North and South Beggars' Gangs.
Zhu Wushi smiled and said: "As the former leader of the beggar gang, you should be most aware of what a dirty place the beggar gang is. There are tens of thousands of people who don't do production, but live by begging and extorting property."
"In the entire beggar gang, at least half of the gang members are cheating and abducting. They do all kinds of evil. They don't do big evil, but they keep doing small evil. For example, the northern beggar gang, because of a hero like you, they didn't become demons. Everyone shouted hit."
"Lord Zhu, please rest assured. I, Xiao Feng, am a person first, and then I am the former head of the Beggar Clan, a Shaolin disciple. I will distinguish right from wrong. The Beggar Clan is mixed with good and evil people. There are good people, good people, and great evil people. It is inevitable."
Xiao Feng's expression was complicated:
"Beggars, I will take someone to deal with it."
"Okay, I'm not embarrassing you, you know the beggars best, and it's a human being's best use to let you deal with the beggars' affairs."
Zhu Wushi patted Xiao Feng's shoulder and said sincerely.
Chapter 227 Terrifying!
In the crowd, a young mother was holding a three or four-year-old child. The child saw a vendor selling small candy figures and cried to eat.
The young mother could only stop to buy sugar figurines, letting go of her child's hand while paying.
After paying the money and holding the sugar figurine, the young mother lowered her head and was about to hold the child's hand when three beggars passed by quickly, and one of them hit her hard, causing her to fall to the ground.
A beggar blocked her view, and a beggar hugged the child and ran towards the entrance of the alley.
"my child!"
Seeing this scene, the young mother yelled, "Give me back the child!"
She hurriedly got up and gave chase, but the crowd was so crowded that she lost track of the beggars.
"Damn beast!"
Xiao Feng saw all this scene in his eyes.
He learned that a seven-bag elder was in the city, so he brought people to capture him, but he didn't expect to see the scene of a beggar robbing a child.
After he joined the Beggar Gang, he was Wang Jiantong's disciple. He was at the upper level of the Beggar Gang, and he had heard about the affairs of the lower level of the Beggar Gang.
But it was the first time he saw the disciples of the Beggar Gang rob children in public.
So unscrupulous!
Those Beggar Clan disciples were dexterous, holding their children and swimming through the crowd like fish, but they never left Xiao Feng's sight.
The few beggars entered the alley and then went to the end of the alley to push the door of a courtyard.
"My friend, what are you doing in my beggar gang?"
A big man came out of the yard, followed by a dozen children of the beggar gang.
This big man is only a little shorter than Xiao Feng, his skin is dark, his clothes are patchy but very clean, he is carrying seven sacks, obviously he is the helmsman.
"Are you the rudder master of the beggar gang?"
"Exactly, if this friend is fine, please leave!"
The big man issued the expulsion order, if he hadn't seen Xiao Feng's majestic body with eight people behind him, he might not have spoken so well.
"Are you abducting and selling children¨.?"
Xiao Feng frowned.
"Friend! Don't swear! You are looking for someone in the wrong place! Please leave!" the big man said coldly.
"If you don't leave again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"But I clearly saw him walk in."
"You are wrong!"
The big man showed fierceness in his eyes, threatening:
"Friend! Dogs meddle in other people's business with mice, and walk the rivers and lakes. You should understand the truth."
There is a trace of disdain on his face. He has been in the rivers and lakes for more than [-] years, and he has seen too many fledgling young heroes fighting for justice. They are full of enthusiasm and think that they can change the world by themselves. Going to take care of it.
But in fact, they are just an insignificant part of the world. They can't change the world, and they can't channel all injustices. There are even more than a dozen young heroes who died in his hands.
"Hand over the child, and I will spare your life."
Xiao Feng's voice became low and his expression was indifferent.
"Huh? For your face, you really opened a dyeing workshop?"
The big man narrowed his eyes, his eyes were stern, and he mocked: "Get out! If you don't get out, break your legs!"
The beggars behind him slowly surrounded him with their knives in hand, and at the entrance of the alley, more than ten beggars also appeared.
It turns out that this alley is the stronghold of the beggar gang.
"Mao Ruozhu, don't be polite to them!"
"He is tall and burly, I don't know how many times he can withstand a knife."
"How many heads do you have if you dare to come to the beggar gang to make trouble?"
"Don't go out and inquire about it, who dares to care about my beggar gang's affairs!"
The big man raised his right hand and dropped it heavily, his eyes shot fiercely: "Brothers, chop them up for me!"
After finishing speaking, he took a few steps back and let the beggar behind him rush out.
