The strongest Taoist priest: the beginning is a fairy

Chapter 418 Chapter 410 Eight, the unknown person in Shushan
"My Buddha has no credit but hard work. Why does he treat me like this?"

The old monk was still struggling with this matter, but he didn't find the problem at all.

The feeling of taking it for granted made Li Wei feel a little terrified.

When I was reading "Hou Tang Shu" before.

Li Wei can also get a glimpse of the power and arrogance of Buddhism in it.

Buddhism reached its peak during the period of Wu Zetian, "the wealth of the world is very rich, and the Buddha has seven or eight."

According to the "Old Tang Book", the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty raised more than a hundred monks to read scriptures in the palace, and the eating utensils of the monks were "extremely rare", and all the expenses were paid by the state.
"Most of the Toyota Merits in Gyeonggi belong to temples and temples, and officials cannot control them."

"Don't drag monks and nuns."

"Princes, princes and commoners, rush to give alms, lest they be left behind. There are people who have ruined their businesses, bankrupted, burned their heads and burned their arms, and ask for support."

Under the name of an eminent monk, there are fertile fields and beautiful maidservants.

These are not the key points. After all, religious figures in which era and country have no money.

The important thing is that Buddhism has become overheated in this era, and many young people are eager to worship Buddhism, even surpassing the attainment of fame and military exploits.

For the country, these are the labor force lost in vain. Without the labor force, the economy is also collapsing.

With the collapse of the economy, more and more people choose to 'seek Buddha', which is an iron rice bowl with more money and less work, forming a cycle, which is definitely not a virtuous cycle.

At that time, the influence of Buddhism had almost reached the point of corruption.

This is the most fundamental reason for the extermination of Buddha, other secondary reasons.

Buddhism has money and land.

So for Li Yan.

This Buddhist local tyrant is fat enough.

If I don't hit you, who will I hit?

It's just that there are things that are not fully recorded in the history books.

For example.

The Buddha behind those Buddha statues is a Buddha with supernatural powers.

They are not so easy to smash, they really have supernatural powers.

Li Wei looked at the Buddha statue in front of him again, the head was cut off evenly, and murmured.

"Like being chopped off by a sword."

In fact, the effect of exterminating the Buddha is indeed good.

A large number of laborers have been liberated and returned to productive positions, instead of simply accepting offerings, cultivating the golden Buddha, and eating incense and fire salary.

Even for those monks with considerable assets, their wealth has flowed back into the society, or they are businessmen. In short, in the late Tang Dynasty, the last revival happened in this era.

It's a pity that Li Yan's lifespan was too short.
If he is still alive, maybe he can make Tang Shimingyue great again.

It's just that history has no ifs.

Li Wei is retrograde on the road, a passerby of this era.

Coming and going, there is nothing empty.

At this time, Li Wei did not conceal his aura, or in other words, the aura of monkey hair on his body.

As long as Dou Victory Buddha is still in this era, you can feel this aura and come to find yourself.

At this moment, Li Wei found that the people around him were all gathering towards one place.

The merchants and peddlers, their feet and teeth, all put down what they were doing.

Li Wei was slightly curious, so he asked the peddler beside him: "Brother, what's going on over there, where do you want to gather?"

"Don't you even know Daoist?"

The peddler had a good attitude towards Li Wei.

During Li Yan's period, the practice of exterminating Buddhism was friendly to Taoism, and everyone in the whole country knew this.

Naturally, his attitude towards Li Wei was not bad.

Li Wei felt a little emotional, if this continues, if Li Yan does not die, the Taoist sect may become the next Buddhist sect.

History is a circle.

"Pindao is a wandering Taoist priest, so he doesn't know what happened."

"Hey, people from the official family are here to tear down the Foguang Temple on Wutai Mountain." The peddler smiled and said.

It is human nature to join in the fun.
Li Wei is also unavoidable.

"Let's take a look at that poor man too."

At this time, Li Wei also walked up Wutai Mountain, and found that many soldiers from the official family came to march to demolish the temple.

The mighty, dark aura of swords and guns.

It can be described as terrifying.

Some elderly monks sat quietly in protest, standing in front of the fighting.

"Amitabha. Please think twice, my Wutai Mountain Temple. Will it be demolished?"

"Aren't you afraid of retribution for being so disrespectful to Buddha?"

The old monk was crying with blood in his eyes, and trembling with tears.

"Master, please step aside."

The leading young general said lightly: "Retribution is not retribution, I don't know, I only know that since His Majesty's extermination of Buddha, people's lives have become better, more people are willing to work, and more money has been taken away." It is used for disaster relief food and salaries, not for the construction of the Great Buddha Temple.”

"The cause and effect of this life will be reported in the future!"

"That's a matter of the afterlife. If you can't live well in this life, what's the use of pursuing the illusory afterlife?" The general said, "Master, let's make way. My mother worships Buddha. I also don’t want to do anything to the eminent monk.”

Afterwards, he changed the subject and continued.

"However, if you are obsessed with your obsession, don't blame me for waiting."

He took out the long sword behind him, but pointed at the monk and at the Buddhist temple.

Point, Buddha.

If a hundred years ago, who would dare to disrespect the Buddha, who would dare to point the sword at Buddhist temples?

"What an obsessed person. Today, the old monk is obsessed with obsession. How dare you treat me like this?"

At this time, the old monk sat cross-legged and recited the Jialan Sutra.

The scriptures flowed, but there was a majestic Buddha appearing in the world behind him.

There is also the misfortune of King Kong who is glaring at him, trying to defeat these soldiers with strength.

"Buddhism is boundless!"

When the Buddha appeared, some of the people around him knelt down.

This is a Buddha, a great Buddha, manifesting a sage in the world!

Yu Wei is still there, able to overwhelm the world.

Even the young general who had just uttered wild words couldn't help being a little bit shy when he saw this mighty law.
The Buddhadharma is boundless and the teachings are infinite, how can it be approached by ordinary people.

At this time, the young general had no intention of retreating, but took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Jian will rely on you next."

But I saw an old man in a black Taoist robe coming out.

The old man's temperament is ordinary, and he only has a thin sword in his hand.

The golden-bodied arhat straddling the sky spit out the Buddha's words: "It's still too late to turn around now."

"Is turning back the shore?"

At this moment, the old man said indifferently: "Now I am turning around and beheading you so-called Buddhas."

"Who are you?"

"Shushan, the nameless one."

"Shu Mountain."

When he heard the word Shushan, the expression on the Arhat's face changed suddenly.

Even, a little twisted.

This made everyone understand one thing in a trance.

It turned out to be Buddha.

It would also be scary.
