One Punch Tang Monk

Chapter 533 Three Thousand Bullies!

All the ministers looked at Hong Miao who was kneeling on the ground, and they did not conceal their disgust at all.

"Several emperors of the Chechi Kingdom believed in Buddhism. Buddhism is still the state religion in the Chechi Kingdom. The incense is very popular. There are many temples throughout the country. The Zhiyuan Temple, which was built by the Emperor, occupies a very large area, with glazed tiles and white jade platforms. It was magnificent for a time. "Xiu Li looked at Tang Sanzang, paused, and continued: "However, these monks, relying on the favor of the late emperor, after being honest for a few years, began to show their true nature. First, they continued to occupy the houses near Zhiyuan Temple. Fortunately, the rebels were wounded at the slightest, and directly killed at the worst, so there were not a few people whose families were destroyed. In just three years, the area of ​​Zhiyuan Temple, which originally occupied an extremely large area, doubled. It is the largest building in Chechi Kingdom."

Tang Sanzang frowned slightly, Zhiyuan Temple's actions are no different from those of powerful landlords, but if it's just like this, it shouldn't be so resented by the people of the whole country, right?
Xiuli seemed to see Tang Sanzang's doubts, and continued to speak: "If that's the case, then it's fine. The late emperor respected Buddhism quite a lot, so the matter was settled later, and even the occupied houses were not returned. , just verbally warned Zhiyuan Temple not to expand further. After this incident, Zhiyuan Temple stopped for a while, but it should be that the late emperor connived them, so they became more and more ignorant of Wang Fa, forced pilgrims to donate, and even sent The female relatives who come to offer incense, this kind of thing happens even more frequently, but this Zhiyuan Temple has a gold medal for avoiding death, and the people dare not speak out, even those officials who know about this matter are also open-eyed. Close your eyes, for fear that you will be contaminated by these things, and you will not be able to escape yourself."

"In just a few years, no fewer than a hundred women were raped. Many of them committed suicide at home despite the abuse. Many originally harmonious families were separated from their wives and children, and the people had deep grievances. Moreover, Zhiyuan Temple is the Buddhist temple of Che Chiguo. You know, other temples have also followed suit. Che Chiguo talked about the monks' distaste. As long as the monks appear, every family will stay behind closed doors, and women will wrap their heads with thick gauze when they go out, for fear of being taken captive into the temple. It's better to die. And if there are business people from other places who come to Chechi country, those monks will lead them into the temple with kind words and good intentions, and stay in the dark shop until midnight, killing people and keeping their property, no different from bandits The ruling and opposition parties turned a blind eye to this, and even if someone dared to speak up occasionally, they would inevitably be beaten severely and lose their official title."

"After nearly a hundred years like this, the common people are in great pain, but they have nowhere to redress their grievances. Many people leave their homes, leave Chechiguo, or hide in deep mountains and old forests to avoid this man-made disaster. Finally, the sky was angry and people complained. Fifteen years ago, an event after three When the severe drought of the year came to Chechi country, these monks squeezed the people even more crazily. However, when the late emperor asked them to pray for rain, the grains did not fall, and finally angered the late emperor. At this time, the three of us just learned the Tao and achieved some success. , Seeing that the people of Che Chi State are suffering, so they went on stage to pray for rain, and prayed for a torrential rain, which relieved the crisis of Che Chi State."

"The severe drought that year was not an ordinary natural disaster, but a punishment from the heavens because of the great resentment of the Chechi country. The late emperor finally realized that what these monks did was harmful to the sky, so there was the so-called extermination of the Buddha later, and the whole country will be destroyed. All the monks were captured in Che Chiguo, and those who committed the most heinous crimes were not killed on the spot, but let them, the monks who have been pampered for many years, also taste the feeling of being bullied and tortured. Therefore, they are all people who deserve what they deserve, not pitiful people .”

After Xiuli finished speaking, the entire palace fell into silence. The faces of those ministers were full of expressions that could not be recalled. Many of them had experienced it and knew what kind of dark days it was. It can be said that if there were no With the arrival of the three national teachers, Che Chiguo died that year, and I don't know how many people will survive.

And those monks are like blood-sucking worms attached to Che Chiguo, taking root deeply, and almost sucking out the blood of Che Chiguo.

Tang Sanzang's complexion changed several times, the more he heard it, the more frightened he became. It's not unheard of that one side is powerful and the other side is evil, but in a country like Che Chi, because of the favor of the monks, it has bullied the people for a hundred years. From top to bottom, not only Zhiyuan Temple, but almost all the monks participated in it. Three thousand bullies, what a terrifying number, how desperate the people must have been back then, those innocent women who died... How pitiful again.

"This kind of monk, damn it, damn it!" Zhu Tianpeng also clenched his fists, looking coldly at Hong Miao who was kneeling on the ground. From the very beginning, they were deceived by the pitiful appearance of these monks, and they have been using their pitiful psychology all the time use.

"So, have we all been deceived?" Luo Xi looked at Hong Ji and Hong Miao, and was also a little angry. If all this was as Xiu Li said, then what they did was not helping the evildoers.

"Senior Sister, what you said is quite right...Although they are pitiful, they are even more hateful. Even if they die ten thousand times, they are not worth saving." Ao Xiaobai looked at Sun Wukong and nodded seriously, as if he understood Sun Wukong. The meaning of what I just said.

"It's not like this, it's not like this... We didn't do these things, we are wronged, Master Tang Seng, we are wronged, please take us out of Che Chi Country, let us live, let us go. "Hong Miao looked up at Tang Sanzang trembling all over, struggling to hug his thigh, her body trembling slightly, she had just come out of hell, now she fell back again, and this time Tang Sanzang had no possibility to reach out to them, Maybe they will kick them back.

Tang Sanzang took a step back, not wanting Hong Miao's dirty hands to touch him. Hong Miao lived to be 120 years old, and he has experienced all the days when Zhiyuan Temple was evil for a country, and he still has decades to serve as the leader of Zhiyuan Temple. The abbot of support can say

The astonishment on Hongji's face was not less than that of Tang Sanzang and the others. After listening to Xiuli's words, it was as if he was listening to someone else's story. In those years, he had been studying the scriptures in the Zen room, not knowing what was going on outside the window, until he was accompanied The brothers and sisters in the temple were arrested, and the master and some uncles in the temple committed suicide in the pagoda forest. I have never understood why they were arrested and why they had to endure these sufferings. Now it suddenly dawned on me that the Zhiyuan Temple It is such a place, those senior brothers who looked at the kindness actually did these outrageous things, knelt down on the ground, clasped their hands together and murmured: "It turns out that we committed such crimes back then, Amitabha, we should die to apologize." As soon as it fell, it slammed its head directly to the ground.
