Chapter 2788 Buddhism wants to fight and is greedy for small beans

The next day, the Buddhist envoy Master Du'e came to the temple. He proposed to discuss Taoism and Dharma with Jian Zheng, and the bet was the Tianji Pan and the Diamond Sutra.

There is a battle between Si Tianjian and Buddhism to determine the winner. This immediately caused a sensation in Kyoto City, and countless people are excited. If Buddhism wins this fight, Jian Zheng will lend himself If Buddhism loses, it will lose the Diamond Sutra. It can be said that there is no room for loss.

Just after noon, Emperor Yuan Jing was studying the Taoist scriptures at Lingbao Temple, listening to the female imperial master expounding the profound meanings of the classics, but he could not calm down and was distracted.

"Your Majesty, are you worried about the battle?"

When Luo Yuheng saw this scene, he wondered why Emperor Yuan Jing was upset and asked softly.

Emperor Yuan Jing hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his concerns and worries.

"Although I have full confidence in Jian Zheng, Buddhism comes prepared this time. If we lose the battle, where will Dafeng's face be?"

"The warlock system is rather special. It is not very safe if it does not prioritize combat power."

Luo Yuheng nodded slightly. This beautiful Taoist leader of the human sect is a second-level Taoist master in the realm of transcending tribulations. He has strong cultivation and is also one of the protagonists in the battle between heaven and man after March.

When Taoist practitioners are in the second-level realm, the Yang Shen has achieved great success and can condense the Dharma. The Taoist dharma has the four powers of earth, wind, water, and fire, and initially controls the four elements of heaven and earth. This realm is the process of integrating the two paths of Jindan Yuanying and Yin Shen Yang Shen. At the second level of Dzogchen, the four major dharma are merged into one, preparing to deal with the five heavenly tribulations: Jindan tribulation, wind and thunder tribulation, landmine tribulation, water and thunder tribulation, and thunder and fire. Tribulation. The fifth heavenly tribulation is divided into two stages, corresponding to the two major abilities of land gods, and lasts for thirteen days. After surviving these five heavenly tribulations and integrating the Yang God with the physical body, one can achieve a first-class land god realm.

What Luo Yuheng said is not unreasonable. Among all systems today, the warlock system was established the latest. Only two people have entered the first-level realm. There has never been a super-level existence. Its combat power is also the weakest. What it is good at is The field is not personal combat power, but the enhancement of national power.

The reason why the Dafeng army is invincible is one of the key factors. Excellent armaments are one of the key factors. Those uncanny siege equipment, artillery, crossbows, magic weapons, etc. are all researched and refined by the white-clothed warlocks of Si Tianjian. This is No other system can do this.

The ninth-level doctor can save lives and heal the wounded, the eighth-level qi-watcher and the seventh-level feng shui master can understand the earth's veins and improve feng shui. These are extremely powerful auxiliary skills. Even fourth-level formation masters are actually auxiliaries. What they are best at is not fighting, but refining magic weapons.

Warlocks need to be attached to the dynasty. The two have a symbiotic relationship, and their role in promoting the national strength of the dynasty is inexhaustible.

Upon hearing what Luo Yuheng, the Taoist leader of the human sect, said, Emperor Yuan Jing became more worried. He no longer had the intention to study the Taoist scriptures, and he had a sad face.

"Your Majesty, among the major systems nowadays, martial arts are the strongest, but in terms of which system is the most complete and has no shortcomings, it is Confucianism. Confucianism can cope with all situations. No matter how superb the Buddhist methods are, Confucianism can also handle it."

Emperor Yuan Jing's eyes were slightly bright, and his face showed a bit of joy. Dafeng's unique system was Warlock and Confucianism. When Confucianism was strong, it beat the Buddhists to the point where they were running away, but he was just a younger brother. He had no power to fight back. It's a pity that since Two hundred years ago, Neo-Confucianism was born, Confucianism declined, and so did Confucianism and Taoism.

Emperor Yuan Jing thought for a moment, then shook his head and said helplessly.

"National Master, last year I intended to ask Dean Zhao of Yunlu Academy to serve as an official, but he refused."

"I'm afraid Yunlu Academy will not agree to help. After all, for the past two hundred years, the students of Yunlu Academy have been excluded from the court, and their official career is not smooth. How can they contribute to Dafeng?"

Emperor Yuan Jing still had self-awareness. When he didn't need others, he would shout and kill them. Now when he needs others, he wants them to work hard and die. How is this possible? Confucians are not fools, how can they do stupid things? .

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten Xu Zisheng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who took action yesterday? Although Yunlu Academy is Confucian orthodoxy, the number one Confucian and Taoist person today is still above the imperial court!"

Luo Yuheng's mind flashed to yesterday's shocking sword strike. The awe-inspiring righteousness enveloped the entire Kyoto city and suppressed the aura of all practitioners. The domineering and upright second-grade Confucian was indeed terrifying. No wonder Confucianism was able to overwhelm other cultivation systems back then. If you don't have a head, you are all rubbish and younger brothers in front of it, and you need to look up to this big brother who takes the lead.

"Xu Zisheng?"

When Emperor Yuan Jing heard the name, his brows tightened. The blade he personally selected was so sharp that even he didn't dare to hold the handle. How could he influence Xu Zisheng's thoughts? It’s already very respectable.

"This person is too rebellious and sharp, and he will not agree to take action!"

Emperor Yuan Jing denied Luo Yuheng's proposal. He knew that Xu Zisheng would never give him face, so he had better not ask for trouble.

Luo Yuheng was helpless when she heard this. She also knew that Emperor Yuan Jing did not like Xu Zisheng, and Xu Zisheng did not respect the great emperor. It’s a breakup.

During the conversation, the old eunuch hurried in, saluted respectfully, and reported to Emperor Yuan Jing.

"Your Majesty, Chu Caiwei from Si Tianjian has been ordered to see you."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuan Jing pondered for a moment, fearing that something might happen to the Imperial Master, then he spoke.

"Let her in!"

The old eunuch took the order and left. Emperor Yuan Jing looked at Luo Yuheng and said.

"Jian Zheng sent his disciples here probably for the purpose of fighting. Imperial Master, please listen and help me with my advice."

Although Emperor Yuan Jing was a noble person, his moral conduct was low and he had no independent opinion. Luo Yuheng is needed to provide opinions and analysis.

Chu Caiwei walked through the courtyard with light steps and entered the quiet room, her skirt swaying gently. In the quiet room, Emperor Yuan Jing and Luo Yuheng sat opposite each other across a coffee table. On the coffee table were a Taoist classics and an incense burner, with thin green smoke rising.

Chu Caiwei glanced at it and saw that there were no delicious pastries on the table. She looked away in disappointment and bowed her hands.

"I have met His Majesty and the Imperial Master."

Emperor Yuan Jing looked at Si Tianjian's little junior sister. Her almond-shaped eyes were big and bright, her face was round, sweet and cute. She was a pistachio that could make people happy unconsciously. She had no scheming and was innocent.

"The supervisor asked you to come to see me, why?"

"It's like this. Third senior brother Yang Qianhuan accidentally went crazy while practicing yesterday. Second senior brother is not in the capital, and senior brother Song and I are not good at fighting!"

Hearing this, Emperor Yuan Jing frowned, feeling as if the house was leaking and it rained all night. He interrupted Chu Caiwei and exclaimed.

"What, Yang Qianhuan went crazy while practicing kung fu?"

Luo Yuheng raised his eyebrows and stared at Chu Caiwei with gleaming eyes. This was not like Jian Zheng's style. She was a little confused about what medicine Jian Zheng was selling in his gourd.

Chu Caiwei didn't panic. She had the same reaction when she heard the news before, and said softly.

"Teacher Jianzheng asked me to borrow a man from Your Majesty to fight with the bald donkey from the Western Region on behalf of Si Tianjian."

Borrow someone? The scheming Emperor Yuan Jing did not agree immediately. A figure appeared in his mind. He was unruly and dressed in a Confucian shirt. He looked like an immortal in the world. However, this person was unruly and he was afraid that he was powerless. He said awkwardly.

"Xu Zisheng is too unruly, and I can't do anything about it?"

Chu Caiwei's pretty face was stunned, and she looked at Emperor Yuan Jing with her big eyes, and asked in confusion.

"What does this matter have to do with Xu Zisheng?"

"Isn't he the person the prison is trying to borrow?"

Emperor Yuan Jing had a surprised expression on his face. Could it be that he had made a mistake? Is there a more suitable candidate for Dafeng than Xu Zisheng? No matter how Buddhists fight, as long as Xu Zisheng takes action, he will never lose.

Chu Caiwei thought of the time when Xu Zisheng deceived her about a piece of sugar cane. She frowned slightly and said with some unhappiness in her almond-shaped eyes.

"The teacher won't borrow that bad guy. He's too arrogant, and the teacher doesn't dare to trouble him!"

Chu Caiwei thought of her teacher's cautious attitude towards Xu Zisheng, and knew that the guy who cheated her of sugar cane was extremely powerful and had a distinguished status. He could stand shoulder to shoulder with the teacher. Si Tianjian didn't have such a big reputation to drive this Confucian and Taoist number one. people.

The quiet room suddenly became quiet. After a long time, Emperor Yuan Jing looked at the innocent Chu Caiwei and asked again.

"Who exactly does Jianzheng want to borrow?"

"The watchman, Silver Gong Xu Qian."

Chu Caiwei's voice was clear, and a name came out of her mouth that once again made Emperor Yuan Jing frown.

"Another one that makes people uncomfortable!"

Emperor Yuan Jing frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy. Why were all the talents in Dafeng so disgusting?

"Why Xu Qian."

Chu Caiwei's big eyes widened, revealing innocence, she shook her head honestly and said.

"I don't know either."

Emperor Yuan Jing felt helpless. This girl was simply silly and cute. He slowly exhaled a breath and waved his hand.

"I understand, please go back first."

"OK."

Chu Caiwei walked away briskly. She planned to go to Princess Huaiqing's Dexinyuan to have tea and cakes, and share her knowledge by the way.

After Chu Caiwei left, Emperor Yuan Jing held the teacup, pondered for a long time, and asked Luo Yuheng in a heavy tone.

"National Master, what do you think about this matter?"

"Xu Qian's talent is certainly good, but as a martial artist, he has no chance of winning in a fight with Buddhism."

Luo Yuheng's facial features are exquisite and dignified. When her face is expressionless, she looks like a jade goddess. Nothing seems to move her.

"However, the Tianji Disk is a magic weapon accompanying the prisoner, and he will definitely not lend it out. Maybe he chose Xu Qian for another reason."

Emperor Yuan Jing sighed, pinched his brows, felt a little tired, and said helplessly.

"Forget it, leave him alone. This old man has a deep scheming mind, and I have never been able to see through it. I have something else to do, so I will go back to the palace first."

The person Emperor Yuan Jing originally disliked the most was Jian Zheng. He looked down upon all the civil and military officials in Dafeng. Even Luo Yuheng, the Taoist leader of the Renzong, treated him as a fellow Taoist and were on an equal footing. Only Jian Zheng was the one he really wanted. Emperor Yuan Jing couldn't see through the person he was looking up to.

However, there has been one more person recently, and that is Xu Zisheng. He usually doesn't take Emperor Yuan Jing seriously at all, and denounces the emperor. For an emperor who holds supreme power, this is very uncomfortable.

After getting on the chariot, Emperor Yuan Jing relaxed his body and gave instructions to the old eunuch outside.

"It is said that Xu Qi'an came to the palace to see me."

There was a sea of ​​people outside Si Tian Prison. Countless people from Kyoto City and Da Feng Jianghu people surrounded the place, wanting to watch the battle between Buddhism and Jian Zheng. The Royal Forest Army was guarding outside Si Tian Prison, and only some dignitaries of the day could enter. In the Si Tian Prison, watch the fighting at close range.

Pergolas were built near the Star Observation Tower, the most luxurious of which was a resting platform wrapped in yellow silk cloth. There were tables and cases at the bottom of the shed, with members of the royal family and clan sitting at the tables.

The Queen and Concubine Chen, who almost had their brains knocked out in the harem, also came. Everyone was talking and laughing, as if they had always been harmonious sisters without any discord.

The four princesses arrived, Princess Huaiqing sat at the head, and Princess Lin'an sat next to her. Among the princes, except the prince who is still in confinement and unable to go out, the rest of the princes are here. For the royal family, this fight is not only a lively event, but also about the face of the court and the royal family.

In another pergola next to this resting platform, the chief minister of the cabinet and the six ministers were watching here. Xu Zisheng closed his eyes and rested. He sat below the chief minister Wang Wenzhen and Wei Yuan. It can be seen that he is now in a higher position in the court. Xu Zisheng is enough to rank in the top three.

Suddenly, a little bean sprout ran in front of Xu Zisheng, staring directly at the pastry preserves in front of him. There was a glint in the corner of his mouth. He hugged Xu Zisheng's calf without fear, and asked with longing in his eyes.

"Brother, can I eat what's in front of you?"

Xu Zisheng slowly opened his eyes, which were gleaming with light and as gentle as jade. He looked at the little girl with bright eyes. He shook his legs and the little girl hugged her tightly, unable to shake him off.

He has a plain appearance, but he is very strong and courageous. He has a round head and round head, and is chubby. He looks like a small glutinous rice ball. His eyes are staring at the candied pastries on the table, full of longing.

Xu Zisheng recognized this child as Xu Qian's little cousin. Xu Lingyin, who forced the four gentlemen of Yunlu Academy to swear that they would never educate children again, was a snack foodie who was obsessed with food and had a huge appetite. A small rice pail.

Wei Yuan, who was next to Xu Zisheng, frowned slightly when he saw the girl. I don't know where such a little girl came from, but she actually broke into this place without knowing the etiquette.

"Eat it!"

Xu Zisheng picked up the preserves on the table, handed them to Xu Lingyin's eyes, and said with a smile.

Xu Lingyin is a girl who only has room for food in her eyes. She grabbed a piece of candied fruit with her chubby little hands, stuffed it into her mouth, and swallowed it in a few times, like a starving ghost reincarnated.

Wei Yuan frowned again, a little displeased, and said in a deep voice.

"Master Xu, this girl is vulgar and rude, why do you have to be so kind and just ask her to be taken away!"

Xu Zisheng turned his head and glanced at Wei Yuan, with a strange look in his eyes, which made Wei Yuan confused. He didn't know why Xu Zisheng looked at him like this.

"This girl is Xu Qian's sister. Hasn't Wei Gong seen her before?"

Wei Yuan's expression froze when he heard this, his eyes immediately became much kinder, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he praised Xu Lingyin.

"This girl is not afraid of life and is very courageous. She will become a great person in the future!"

Sure enough, Xu Qi'an was Wei Yuan's biological son. He loved the house and the bird. He immediately changed his tune and praised Xu Lingyin, which made Xu Zisheng roll his eyes.

Wei Yuan ignored Xu Zisheng, looked at the little girl with gentle eyes, and said to her kindly.

"You don't eat candied fruit like that. You put it in your mouth. The longer you hold it in your mouth, the sweeter it tastes!"

Xu Lingyin was still a little girl with a clear mind, and she looked at problems from a different angle than ordinary people. She looked up at Wei Yuan, frowned, and said somewhat unhappily.

“When the sweetness is over, the candied fruit will be eaten up by others.

"As long as I keep eating, my mouth will always be sweet!"

Wei Yuan's mouth twitched when he heard this. This girl was very similar to Xu Qian's temperament. No matter whether she could eat it or not, she had to take it first.

Xu Lingyin was not interested in Wei Yuan, so she looked at Mimei again, and said to Xu Zisheng crisply.

"Brother, I still want to eat!"

Xu Zisheng nodded and liked Xu Lingyin a little more. This girl had a future. At such a young age, she knew that eating more and taking more was the right way to go.

Xu Lingyin ate several pieces of candied fruit in a row, and seemed to feel a little embarrassed. Then she looked up at Xu Zisheng, her big eyes were bright, and asked.

"Brother, don't you want to eat?"

Xu Zisheng shook his head and said with a smile.

"I don't like sweets, just eat them!"

Xu Lingyin smiled brightly when she heard this. She liked people who would not compete with her for food. She blinked her innocent and clear eyes and cautiously tried.

"Brother, you didn't like them, so I ate them all!"

The little girl has a big belly, her eyes greedily looked at the pastries, candied fruits, melons and fruits in front of Xu Zisheng's table, and her mouth watered.

Xu Zisheng glanced at Xu Lingyin's belly, laughed and said.

"You can eat as much as you want, no worries!"

Xu Lingyin smiled brightly as if hearing the sound of the sky. She kept grabbing cakes, candied fruits, and fruits with her two chubby little hands, stuffing them into her mouth, and enjoyed eating them.

Xu Zhiping, who was in the distance, realized that his little daughter was missing. He looked around, and his eyes suddenly froze. Seeing this scene, a numbness shot up from his tailbone to his head. He quickly took steps to avoid his daughter. Causing big trouble.

"Master Marquis, my little girl is naughty, don't be like her!"

Xu Pingzhi came over bravely, bowed his waist, tried his best to keep his voice from shaking, and spoke carefully.

Xu Zisheng liked Xu Lingyin's character very much. He waved his hand, picked up a bright yellow pear from the table and handed it to the little girl, and said to Xu Zhiping very gently.

"Don't worry, just let this little girl stay with me!"

Xu Zhiping quietly looked at Xu Zisheng's face and saw that he was smiling and very kind. Then he felt relieved and glared at his daughter to signal her to be more honest.

It's a pity that the flirtatious look given to the blind man had no effect at all. Xu Lingyin was struggling with her head down, gnawing on the sweet pear with her little mouth, the juice flowing, and she didn't notice her father coming over at all.

Unknowingly, time has passed and the show has begun!

Master Du'e, who was meditating cross-legged under the pergola, opened his eyes, looked into the Star Observation Tower with a loud voice, and shouted.

"Jian Zheng, do you know that Xumi Na mustard seeds?"

"It's just a little trick!"

Above the nine heavens, Jian Zheng's sneer came, with disdain in his voice, not caring about the Buddhist methods.

Everyone present, no matter the dignitaries or the common people outside, were in high spirits and excited, it was finally about to begin.

"boom!"

Master Due looked calm, took out a golden bowl from his arms, and tossed it gently. The golden bowl weighed more than a thousand kilograms. The stone slab it hit cracked and was deeply embedded in the ground.
