Chapter 50 Western Zen Sect!

You must know that the Zen Sect of the Western Regions is different from the Xuanmen Tao Sect. The Xuanmen Tao Sect still has a close relationship with Dayuan. It is said that Taizu Taizu of the Dayuan once sought immortality from the Xuanmen Tao Sect.

Therefore, Xuanmen Taoism may also take into account the relationship with Dayuan.

It won't really kill Li Ping'an.

However, the relationship between the Western Zen Sect and Dayuan has always been poor, and they can even be regarded as rivals.

The reason is that Zen wanted to spread the word to the Central Plains more than two hundred years ago, but Taizu of the Yuan Dynasty was unwilling to let them in. The angry Zen took action and had a fight with Taizu.

Although the outcome of this battle is unknown, the matter of Zen preaching has been put on hold.

Nowadays, the power of Zen Buddhism in the Western Regions spreads all over the world, but there are only a few temples in the Central Plains. One can imagine the attitude of Zen Buddhism towards the Yuan Dynasty.

This is a dispute over orthodoxy. Unless one party compromises, there will be no room for relaxation.

It's just that Zen Buddhism has been suppressing it for so many years.

It is not surprising that Prince Dayuan retreated completely when he blocked the door of Xuanmen Dao Sect, but if he dared to block the door of Zen Sect now, he would really be dancing on the tip of a knife.

……

... 0 ...

While the outside world was still skeptical about the source of this news, Li Ping'an had already arrived outside the Western Region Zen Sect.

Zen Buddhism is located in a flat Gobi Desert. The towering standard buildings are more magnificent than the imperial palace of Yuan Dynasty. Bodhisattvas and Buddhas are depicted everywhere in them.

They sit cross-legged on the ground, with either kind eyebrows and kind eyes, or with angry eyes wide open, or with a solemn appearance.

Thousands of people have thousands of faces, and so does Buddha.

Li Ping'an stood at the door without saying a word, but just looked around. The splendor of Zen Buddhism and the yellow sand-filled Western Region are two completely opposite sides.

In the pagoda, the faces of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are coated with thick layers of gold powder. Their kind-faced eyes and solemn appearance look like the true Buddha coming to the world from a distance.

Outside the pagoda, the north wind blows the white grass on the ground, and countless people work as slaves and maids, acting as the lowest level of labor force.

They had no personal freedom and no self-cultivated land. Once they became serfs, they would remain the private property of Buddhist temples and farmers for life. Their children and grandchildren would be kept in captivity like livestock, and they would never get ahead.

Li Ping'an didn't take a closer look, and he didn't dare to take a closer look.

If we really want to say that any place in this world is a paradise, then Zen Buddhism must be a paradise, because outside of it is the hell of countless poor people!
  Li Ping'an sighed and murmured: "Buddha said that all living beings are suffering. If the so-called Buddha really treats the world like this, then how can all living beings be suffering? They are simply living in hell!"

The commanders of the several shadow guards behind him were about to take over the conversation when they heard this, but they couldn't help but suddenly tensed up. They held down the swords hanging on their waists with one hand, and they all felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Looking along their gaze, Li Pingan saw an old monk with white beard and hair.

The old monk had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, but even his eyebrows were empty. He clasped his hands and saluted Li Ping'an, and said slowly: "The donor came from afar, why did he speak so rudely in front of my Buddha?"

Li Ping'an raised his eyebrows: "Your Buddhist temple is built with great style, but the Western Region is a poor place. How much blood and tears were buried behind such a huge project?"

"If this can be considered rude, I also know why Taizu didn't let you bald donkeys take over the Central Plains." Although the land annexation in Dayuan was also very serious, after all, there was still a land to follow the law. place.

Ordinary people will not be deprived of their qualifications to be human beings, even if they are of lowly status.

But here, once the people become slaves, they are no different from animals and beasts. They can only be regarded as the property of the farmer and cannot be counted as human beings at all.

When it comes to peeling skin and cramps, breaking bones and sucking marrow, the landlords of Dayuan were not as ruthless as these bald donkeys. The capitalists of later generations shed tears when they saw it.

Being ridiculed by Li Ping'an, the old monk raised his eyebrows, but he could not see any emotion. He bowed again and said calmly: "The donor's words are wrong. I, the Buddha, save all sentient beings and never distinguish between rich and poor. , noble or low, Zen Buddhist temples were built brick by brick by the people who were saved by our Buddha. How can we talk about bloodshed and tears?"

"What a spontaneous construction!" Li Ping'an sneered: "Don't you think it's ridiculous to say such high-sounding words in front of me?"

"Tens of millions of people in the Western Regions support your family, but in the end they end up as slaves and handmaids; you rats who don't do anything to give birth and just sit on the mountain empty, shout to save all sentient beings every day, but every one of them is full of fat. It’s really the most ridiculous thing in the world!”

"The donor has too much prejudice against me as a Buddhist. If we continue to talk about this topic, there will be no results." The old monk muttered a Buddhist scripture and continued: "What is the reason for the donor to come all the way? If nothing happens, the old monk will We can only thank guests behind closed doors."

Li Ping'an no longer had any desire to break up with the old monk.

He took out a box from his arms, took out the True Dragon Elixir, and said, "Come on, let me see the power of the Thousand Years Zen Sect!"

The old monk glanced at the True Dragon's Elixir in Li Ping'an's hand, and a pair of eyes that were originally calm flashed with a ray of light: "The donor already has two treasures in the world, the True Dragon's Elixir and the Ancient Martial Arts Tea Tree. The foundation of martial arts is enough, so why come to my Buddhist school to ask for Bodhi Tree Heart?"

Li Ping'an's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "Since it is the most precious treasure in the world, how can there be too much?!"

The old monk recited another Buddhist scripture and calmed down the restlessness in his heart before he spoke: "Greed, anger, and ignorance are the three poisons. These three poisons harm the body and mind, causing people to sink into the cycle of life and death. They are the root of evil. The donor has a sign. Got it!"

Li Ping'an stared at him for a long time, then sneered and said: "It's useless to talk more. Fight or not fight. If not, I will go to the ice-free port in the far north."

The old monk's expression remained unchanged, he bowed his head and saluted, "In that case, I must have offended you a lot!"

As soon as the words fell, the old monk's skinny palm hidden under the monk's robe suddenly reached out and grabbed the small box containing the immortal dragon medicine in Li Ping'an's hand.

Obviously, although he said he didn't want it, he was actually already salivating for the True Dragon Elixir.

It is rumored that the true dragon elixir has the effect of making people immortal. Although this rumor is most likely false, otherwise the Great Yuan Taizu would not have disappeared inexplicably, let alone the original injury.

But even if it is rumored to be seriously adulterated, the true dragon elixir can extend one's life for hundreds of years without any pressure.

Old Brown has been a martial arts master for hundreds of years, and his lifespan is long gone. He usually relies on sacrificing boys and girls to keep his body's energy and blood from declining.

Now I heard that Li Ping'an was wandering around with the real dragon elixir.

How could you possibly let it go?

The feud between Zen and Dayuan has been going on for a long time, and it doesn’t hurt to add one more thing today!
