I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

The next morning.

Qin Yao took the golden light and went to the Emperor of Fengdu to return the book. Then he opened the door to dimension outside the palace gate, traveled through time and space, and reached the fairyland of Lingshan.

Because the succession ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow, Lingshan is now decorated with lights and flowers. Many monks and Buddhists are in a hurry, each busy with the tasks assigned by their superiors.

Seeing that there were many people around and they were coming and going in a hurry, Qin Yao subconsciously held Jin Guangyu's hand and pulled her to mingle with the crowd, walking towards the Great Leiyin Temple step by step.

The Great Leiyin Temple is also undergoing renovation. Many exquisitely shaped lotus platforms have been moved in and placed in different locations according to the plan.

There was an aisle in the middle of the hall, and at the end of the aisle was a golden lotus platform that was many times larger than any other lotus platform. It was obviously the main seat.

At this moment, the two saints Jie Yin and Zhunti, as well as Sakyamuni, who will soon succeed as the master of Lingshan, were standing in front of the golden lotus platform, communicating with each other.

Seeing how devoted they were to their conversation, Qin Yao felt embarrassed to interrupt them, so he thought about taking Jin Guang for a walk around Lingshan first.

However, just as he turned around, Zhunti's voice rang out from behind him: "Shen Gongbao, now that you are here, why are you leaving?!"

Qin Yao turned around again with a golden glow and said with a smile, "I just saw you guys were busy and didn't want to disturb you."

While replying, he led his fellow Taoists forward, nodded at Sakyamuni, and then saluted the two saints.

"You guys chat, I'll go first."

Jie Yin said this with a dull expression, and without waiting for a reply, he instantly turned into light and left.

  Qin Yao slowly narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: Why do I feel that this Saint Jie Yin dislikes me more and more?

But after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what grudge he had with the other party.

  Having said that, we have only had a few contacts, so there is no chance for us to have any conflicts!

"Let's go out and talk. There are too many people here." At this time, Zhunti smiled slightly and said to the two juniors in front of him whom he valued the most.

The two of them had no objection to this, so including the Golden Light Mother, the three of them followed him silently, turning around and around, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at a quiet garden that exuded a faint fragrance, and headed straight for the canopy bodhi tree in the center of the garden...

After a while, Zhunti and the other three stopped under the shade of a tree. With a wave of his hand, four yellow cushions appeared on the ground: "Sit down."

Qin Yao, Jin Guang, and Shakya then sat cross-legged on the cushions lined up in a row, while Zhunti sat opposite them with his back against a tree and spoke again: "Shen Gongbao."

"Saint." Qin Yao bowed.

"I have already told him about your discovery of Sakya." Zhunti said.

Qin Yao was slightly startled and turned to look at Sakyamuni.

Coincidentally, Sakyamuni also looked up at him.

The two smiled at each other, and Qin Yao said slowly: "I have observed him for a long time. He will be a good leader and will surely lead the Western Church to prosperity."

"Thank you." Shakya clasped his hands together and said softly.

At this moment, his heart was full of goodwill towards the famous demon fairy in front of him, and even a hint of gratitude.

Qin Yao waved his hand: "It's okay."

Seeing the harmonious scene of the two of them, Zhunti's eyes flashed with a smile, and then he said seriously: "I also told Shakya about the Mahayana and Hinayana you talked about, and he was very interested in it."

Qin Yao's expression suddenly became strange: "Saint, this is inappropriate, right?"

Zhunti said: "The problem is right here, we can't just pretend it doesn't exist."

Qin Yao pondered and said, "In addition to the three Buddhas, Dipankara, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, and Cihang, how many people have you extradited from the East?"

In his opinion, if there are relatively few outsiders from the Eastern World, there is nothing to worry about. Mahayana and Hinayana can be distinguished by doctrines rather than by the attributes of disciples.

Zhunti said: "My senior brother and I worked together and probably collected more than two thousand."

"How much?" Qin Yao's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of shock.

He knew that Zhunti had been recruiting people all the time, but in his impression, apart from accepting Kong Xuan, it seemed that Jie Yin had not extradited many Eastern monks?

Zhunti said, "There are about 2,800 in total, of which I have more than 1,000 and Brother Jieyin has more than 1,000."

"When did the Saint Jie Yin extradite these monks?" Qin Yao asked blankly.

This was too sudden. He even wondered if the other party had tricked some immortal sect into coming.

Zhunti explained: "Do you still remember the more than one thousand demon immortals who survived in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation?"

Qin Yao understood it now, but he still had a question: "Those demon immortals devoured two great golden immortals. Can the Chan Sect let them go?"

"Brother, in exchange for helping with the cause and effect, he got these more than a thousand demon fairies." Zhunti said.

Qin Yao was silent.

There are nearly three thousand outsiders. The problem has indeed reached a point where we have to face it head on.

Sakyamuni looked at Qin Yao and said seriously: "I am going to do as you said, including changing Western religion to Buddhism.

Tomorrow, after I take over, the first thing I will announce is this, and the second thing is to divide the Mahayana and Hinayana into two groups. The two groups do not command each other, do not interfere with each other, but compete with each other, and make progress through competition. "

Qin Yao groaned and said, "You can do it better than me."

The same thing, done by different people, will inevitably lead to different results.

Jie Yin didn't like him in the first place, and was even more unhappy with him. What he was doing was exacerbating the conflict.

But Shakyamuni was taught by himself, and what he did was to solve the problem.

This is the difference!

Shakya said: "But you have a longer-term vision than me, and you have more ideas and suggestions. I would like to ask you, how can I make Buddhism flourish?"

Qin Yao really knows how to revitalize Buddhism.

After Journey to the West, Buddhism flourished. This is no joke.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Preach the scriptures."

The reason for his silence was that he had not decided whether he should be the one to break the window paper.

He stopped being silent because he suddenly realized that even if he didn't say anything, the trend of Heaven's Way would still flow in this direction.

Since this is the case, why not use it to create good karma and reap good results?

A ray of light flashed through Shakya's mind, but it was not very clear: "If we spread the scriptures to the East, it will inevitably cause a strong backlash and united resistance, right? Put yourself in their shoes, if a Taoist came to the West to spread the scriptures, he would also experience this kind of obstruction."

Qin Yao shook his head and said, "No one values ​​things that are easily obtained. Only those who have obtained them with untold hardships will know how to cherish them.

So, when I say spreading the scriptures, I don’t mean sending Buddha from the West to the East to recruit disciples and teach the way, but rather asking monks from the East to come to the West to seek the true scriptures. The more difficult this process is, the more valuable the true scriptures they bring back will be.”

A ray of light suddenly shone in Shakya's mind. Based on the other party's proposal, countless ideas flew out like snowflakes, and instantly condensed into ideas. Thinking of this, he immediately stood up from the cushion and said with a bow: "The Taoist priest is really an unparalleled strategist. I heard earlier that the Taoist priest had joined the game and changed the fate of Jiejiao against the will of heaven. I was a little skeptical, but now I believe it."

Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "Don't listen to unofficial historical rumors, they are all false. When the Conferred Gods War began, I was still a disciple of the Chan Sect, and had nothing to do with the Jie Sect at all."

Shakya smiled and said, "But it is true that you are now a guest of honor in Jiejiao, right? When you helped Dizang gain a foothold in Hell, the Ten Immortals came in person to protect you."

"That's true." Qin Yao smiled slightly.

Listening to their conversation, the Golden Light Mother, who was originally a member of the outer sect of Jiejiao, now looked at Qin Yao with eyes filled with broken starlight.

This light is worship, reverence, adoration, and pride.

In the more than three hundred years they have been together, she has never heard the other party bragging, but Sakya's praise at this moment is actually a real credit to him.

  The man she loves and sleeps with is a hero!

At this time, Shakya thought for a moment and asked, "May I ask, Master Dao, are you willing to become the Wisdom Buddha of our Buddhist sect? If you agree, I will announce tomorrow that the Wisdom Buddha will be listed alongside the Three Buddhas and share the fortune of Buddhism."

Qin Yao declined, "I am the type who has some skills, but not much. I can come up with some ideas, but I can't really plan for a thousand years or strategize, so forget it."

Shakya was a little disappointed, but then he felt relieved.

The other party doesn't even look down on the Lord of Lingshan promised by the two saints, so how could he be his military advisor?

I was just daydreaming, so why should I be disappointed?

Then, he looked into Qin Yao's eyes and said seriously: "Just based on what the Taoist said to me today and this idea.

As long as I am the master of Lingshan Mountain and the Buddha of Buddhism, the Taoist priest will be the guest of honor of Lingshan Mountain and Buddhism just like he was in Jiejiao.

If you have any instructions, you can come to Lingshan to find me at any time. What the Ten Immortals of Jiejiao can do, I, Sakyamuni, can do as well!"

Qin Yao smiled slightly and didn't care: "You are too kind."

He never believed in such oaths, only in common interests.

If one day, one's interests conflict with those of Buddhism, then even the best relationship will turn into enmity.

There is no need to cite examples from too far back. Before he turned against Jiang Ziya, he had a honeymoon period.

only……

This is not to say that Shakyamuni's promise is completely useless. In fact, it is still quite important, especially for the cause he wants to do.

  With the support of Buddhism, we will be even more powerful!

This wave of favors is selling very well...

the next day.

Lingshan has basically been decorated, with flowers and lanterns outside the Great Leiyin Temple, and solemn lotus platforms scattered inside the Great Leiyin Temple.

Qin Yao and Jin Guang stayed in the courtyard arranged by Sakya, looking at the white clouds floating in the sky, thinking about the flowers on the earth and the merits of the heavenly way in their minds.

He has already cultivated the celestial flower and the human flower, and only lacks the earth flower to complete the three flowers.

But Zhen Yuanzi was not at home. Even if he found out where he was, it would be inappropriate for him to block him just for the land.

Now I just hope that the old man will come to Lingshan to watch the ceremony tomorrow, and I can go to Wuzhuang Temple with him to borrow the Book of the Earth to have a look.

And the merits of heaven...

  Isn't Journey to the West in line with the general trend of Heaven? He himself proposed the concept of passing on scriptures and obtaining Buddhist scriptures, so why didn't Heaven say anything at all?

Could it be that the Heavenly Dao has determined that the prosperity of Western religion is not a benefit to the Three Realms? Unlike Ksitigarbha's entry into hell, which can contribute to the operation of the Three Realms?

But apart from this, where else can we obtain the merits of the Heavenly Dao?

  He really wants this stuff~

"Master Shen..."

Suddenly, the sound of lighting a lamp was heard outside the courtyard, pulling Qin Yao back from his reverie.

"Please come in." Qin Yao immediately stood up from the stone bench and said loudly.

The next moment, the wooden door was suddenly pushed open, and Randeng led the three great masters into the courtyard, bowed and said, "Master, long time no see."

"Please sit down." Qin Yao nodded and pointed to the stone bench beside him.

The four saints sat down obediently, and Randeng spoke again, "I heard that you had a secret conversation with the Saint Zhunti and Sakyamuni yesterday?"

Qin Yao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

Randeng sighed, "I have to ask, I have to come. Now there are more than 2,000 outsiders who are secretly led by me, and I can't really ignore them. After all, only by sticking together can we keep warm. So I came to find out what this Sakyamuni advocates."

Qin Yao said: "Don't ask me, I won't tell you. It's not that I don't treat you as my own people, but there is a limit.

What degree, what scale, is measure.

I refused to be the Lord of Lingshan, but I interfered in the internal power struggle of Lingshan at will. Is this reasonable?"

Ran Deng was silent, then asked sincerely: "Do you have any advice for us?"

Qin Yao thought for a moment and said, "You shouldn't stand on the stage, because people who stand on the stage often cannot cover their own bottom line.

To put it more bluntly, you have to leave room for maneuver.

Therefore, don't be tempted by your current leadership position, and be clear about your position.

As for the three great bodhisattvas, my advice to you is to regard Sakyamuni as your leader and not to plot against him as your enemy.

What the leader wants is balance, not monopoly.

Therefore, he will not help the local faction to suppress you. On the contrary, he needs you to check and balance the local faction. "

Hearing this, the Buddha and the three great bodhisattvas all felt relieved and the pressure was not as great as before.

At this moment, seeing how they obeyed his orders, Qin Yao suddenly realized where Jie Yin's dissatisfaction with him came from.

  Where else could it come from?

It comes from here!

But he had no good solution for this.

After all, he couldn't completely give up the power he had cultivated. He would have to use this power to force the Heavenly Court in the future...

After a while, Qin Yao escorted the three great bodhisattvas out of the yard, turned to look at the Golden Light Bodhisattva who was silently following him, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to become the first Bodhisattva of Lingshan after Sakyamuni?"

The Golden Light Mother blinked and said, "Do you need me to become the first Bodhisattva?"

Qin Yao laughed and ruffled her soft long hair: "You don't live for me, so you don't have to consider my situation."

The Golden Light Mother shook her head and silently clenched his hand. "Our destinies have long been linked together. We prosper together and suffer together. So if you need me to, I can try to do it. Maybe I won't do it well at the beginning, but I will definitely work harder."

Qin Yao gradually put away his smile and said thoughtfully: "Forget it, your personality is not suitable for being the chief. Live happily, I will protect you..." (End of this chapter)
