I will practice more in the heavens

Chapter 142 An Unwinnable Debate
"Don't be impulsive. This is the capital of Yuan Dynasty. The elites and masters of the imperial court gather here. Even if Daoist Zhang comes, once he is surrounded, it will be difficult to escape!" Liu Bowen said.

Where is Yuandadu?
The capital of a country.

There are [-] elite imperial guards practicing "Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu", plus countless martial arts masters, as well as the national teacher Ba Siba whose martial arts are unfathomable and even comparable to Zhang Sanfeng.

With such a preparation, it is enough to besiege and kill Zhang Sanfeng.

In fact, Ba Siba was worried about Zhang Sanfeng's troubles, not because he was worried about his immediate actions, but because he was worried about his secret actions to save people, otherwise, once exposed to the public, martial arts masters would not be able to fight against the army at all.

Even stronger than Zhang Sanfeng can't.

"I'm different, as long as I want to leave, no one can stop me!" Li Xing said.

Perhaps in terms of strength, he is not as good as Zhang Sanfeng, but in terms of ability to escape, he feels that Zhang Sanfeng can't catch up with him even if he flatters a horse - he has learned "hole drilling" from Captain Mojin, and relying on his great strength, he can even fight under the pressure of a mountain. hole out.

No matter how strong the capital of Yuanting is, is it better than a mountain?
In addition, he also learned the "illusion technique" from Zuo Ci, which may not be effective against martial arts masters, but it is absolutely accurate when used against ordinary people, and can make the guards open the city gate and let him go out directly.

"But this, this..." Liu Bowen seemed to have something to say, but hesitated.

"what happened?"

"Can you bear with it for a while and wait until the 'Taoist-Buddhist Debate Conference', at least the 'Wen Debate' is over, before you make a move?" Liu Bowen asked.

This made Li Xing immediately interested: "Do you want to take action?"

"This...Brother Li is not an outsider, so let me just say it straight!" After hesitating for a while, Liu Bowen gritted his teeth and said, "This is related to the cooperation between Daoism and Mingjiao. It's one of them."

Li Xing became more interested when he heard this.

After some inquiries, I roughly understood the specific situation: Not long ago, Monk Peng, one of the "Five Scattered Men" of Mingjiao, supported his disciple Zhou Ziwang's uprising, and was defeated and suppressed.

Not only was he seriously injured, but his disciple was also captured alive and sent to Yuan Dadu.

He was supposed to be executed, but it coincided with the second "Taoism-Buddha Debate Conference", Emperor Yuan specially approved him to participate in the debate on behalf of Mingjiao, and if he won the debate, he would be acquitted.

This is a conspiracy by Yuanting.

On the bright side, Mingjiao is used to deal with Taoist sects and attract firepower, while in the dark, he is used to draw out rebellion and wipe out all of them.

In response to this conspiracy, the Daoist sect also came up with a solution, that is to join forces with Mingjiao to rob people, even if they fail to succeed, they can make a certificate of honor, and unite against Yuanting in the future.

Generally speaking, the two parties have their own calculations and ideas.

"Yuan Ting wants to catch us all, but we also want to use our tactics, not only to save people, but also to assassinate Yuan Ting Guoshi'Basiba' who is the host of the meeting!" Liu Bowen said.

Li Xing was also a little surprised by this.

There is still hope for saving people, but for assassination, with Ba Siba's martial arts, it is probably useless to kill as many people as possible, right?

Unless Zhang Sanfeng makes a move, there is no one in this world who is his opponent.

"We have a secret weapon, come with me!" Liu Bowen said, leading Li Xing into the city, turned around several times, and finally came to a temple.

"Who is this?" the monk in charge asked.

"I met a person of the same kind on Wudang Mountain, and Zhang Zhenren is a friend who has forgotten the years." Liu Bowen said.

Hearing this, the monk frowned, but he didn't say much, and led the two into the temple.

Open the mechanism and go to the dark room.

Eventually saw a young man with a child, and a "cannon".

Yes, that's right, the cannon.

Although this is the "Yitian" world, some things follow history, such as the "Hongwu Cannon" that defeated the Mongolian cavalry.

Although it is not called by that name at this time, such things as cannons do exist.

Your martial arts are so strong that the twelve layers of golden bell cover are invulnerable?
But when the cannon fires, no matter how awesome you are, it's useless!

"This is Li Xing, a very powerful master. His martial arts are not inferior to Zhang Zhenren and Yuan Ting Guoshi!" Liu Bowen introduced.

As soon as these words came out, the three people in the secret room were startled.

"But Li Xing, who defeated the masters of the five major sects in the Zhenwu Hall a few days ago?" The monk's eyes lit up, he bowed his body and said, "My lord, Zhu Yuanzhang, has seen Li Daxia."

Then, the young man with the child also said: "Chang Yuchun, I have seen Li Daxia."

For Li Xing, the two had admired for a long time.

Killing the four major sects with their own power is something they have always wanted to do, but they couldn't do it.

"Zhu Yuanzhang? Chang Yuchun?" Li Xing looked confused.

Look at Liu Bowen who brought him in.

Ok!

These three guys seem to be the ones who can make things happen.

But this time, they seem to have failed—if I remember correctly, in the original book, when Zhang Sanfeng took Zhang Wuji down the mountain for treatment, he happened to meet Chang Yuchun who was hunted down by Yuan soldiers.

The "young master" he was carrying also died because of Yuan soldiers' pursuit.

……

The Taoist-Buddhist Debate Conference will start soon, and the venue will be in the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang used his status as a monk to mix in Buddhism and was responsible for arranging retreat for everyone, while Liu Bowen mixed in with his status as a "Jinshi" and was ready to respond at any time.

There were others who didn't show up.

How that "cannon" got in, Li Xing didn't know, but even he felt a little bit of danger in the field.

It's the feeling of being aimed by a cannon.

At this time, a young monk was debating with an old Taoist priest.

"I think your 'Taoism' doesn't exist at all. From birth to death, Lao Tzu never mentioned anything about 'Sanqing Patriarch'." The young monk said: "Taoism is just a liar under the guise of Lao Tzu. Created a rebel organization, nothing more!"

These words are to beat Taoism to death.

However, the old Taoist was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.

"The "Tao Te Ching" is also full of nonsense. How did 'water' benefit all things? Are there still few people who drowned in rivers throughout the ages?" The young monk asked again.

In this regard, the old Taoist refuted: "Drowning is too much, and water benefits all things, but it should not be too much."

This is a normal argument.

However, it was judged a failure.

Because among the people sitting in the referee's seat, only one did not wear Buddhist beads.

But that person is the national teacher "Basiba".

A "living Buddha" who no longer needs to use Buddhist beads to express his piety!
"Buddhist disciples are debating below, and the 'Living Buddha' is on stage to preside over it. The contestants and referees have all done it. This so-called 'Second Taoist Debate Conference' is nonsense, right?" Li Xing was completely speechless.

In such a debate, it would be strange if the Daoist sect could win!
