'Purple Qi comes from the east', 'Qi Luck Transforms Zhizhi'!
As soon as 'Zhang Tianshi' appeared on the stage, it condensed the luck of the Taoist school in the Central Plains, and the 'Buddhist luck' and 'Li Tang Guoyun' competed with each other and fought against each other.

What 'Huang Shaohong' didn't expect was that the prosperity of the Daoist sect was slightly better than the latter two.

'Huang Shaohong' couldn't help but sighed in his heart. You must know that he had seen a real celestial master. In the world of 'The Cabin in the Woods', he saw the last celestial master of that world.

At that time, the "Tianshi Zhang" had no luck to speak of, but he was just an old man who was dying and waiting for the end to come.

Then look at the 'Tianshi Zhang' in front of him, with great luck, like the sun in the sky, this is the majesty that the leader of Taoism in the world should have.

But 'Huang Shaohong' couldn't help sighing in his heart. Three days later, the Water and Land Dharma Assembly will be held, which will be the beginning of Mahayana Buddhism's eastward spread. From then on, the rise of Buddhism may be unstoppable.

Since then, the luck of Taoism has gradually declined, and it will even be suppressed by Buddhism. In folk beliefs, people often worship Guanyin and Maitreya at home, and how many people worship the righteous gods of Taoism?
Even if there are, they are dedicated to the God of Wealth and Guan Gong, such gods who are in charge of wealth or deter evil spirits, such as Sanqing and Jade Emperor, except for their respective Taoist temples, it is basically difficult to enjoy the incense in the world.

Thinking of this, 'Huang Shaohong', who considered himself a Taoist, couldn't help sighing silently.

He sighed so lightly that countless high roads in the street didn't notice it, but that 'Zhang Tianshi' who had just got off the carriage, for some reason, swept his eyes here and locked on 'Huang Shaohong'.

"what"!
After seeing 'Huang Shaohong' clearly, 'Zhang Tianshi' didn't feel anything at first, and was about to turn his eyes away, when he suddenly let out a light snort, and then whispered something to a middle-aged Taoist who was following behind him, and then waved his hand to let the kneeling A group of Taoist priests got up.

Let everyone enter the 'Dragon Inn' narrative.

At this time, countless believers shouted for the celestial master to pray for blessings. Although the words of "Zhang celestial master" were interrupted, they didn't think about it.

Immediately, he picked up the fly whisk, but he didn't see how he was making any gestures, nor did he see how he was pinching his hand, he just waved it towards the sky, and a beam of light shot straight into the sky.

Strange to say, it was sunny at this time, with only a few white clouds floating in the sky, and it was supposed to rain at all, but with the flick of the dust whisk by 'Master Zhang', the next moment, the sky began to drizzle.

Not to mention the rain on a sunny day, there was even a little bit of golden streamer in the drizzle.

The rain fell on everyone, and the streamer entered the body. Some believers who were in poor health and looked bad immediately felt refreshed.

Believers who have sickness on their bodies will become less severe and the mild symptoms will disappear. People with scabies will be cured immediately after being exposed to rain.

The miraculous scene immediately produced a sensational effect, and everyone became excited, shouting 'Longevity of the Heavenly Master', and even shouting 'Live Immortal'!

Someone next to him immediately corrected him, saying that gods are not as honorable as celestial masters!

Immortals are also divided into three, six, and nine grades, and celestial masters are the leaders of Taoism in the world. They are higher than the gods and the highest rank.

'Huang Shaohong' stood under the eaves of the inn and watched from the steps. Originally, the rain couldn't touch him, but now he stretched out his hand to catch some rainwater, and immediately saw the mystery.

It is the 'Golden Light Curse' of the 'Tianshi Mansion'!
This 'Heavenly Master Zhang' can actually cast golden light mantras in groups, blending into the sky and turning them into rain. This kind of magic power is no less than that of the immortals in the sky.

'Zhang Tianshi' was invited into the inn like the stars and the moon, and was surrounded by those big and small Taoist priests.

Many came to welcome, and famous believers were invited in to speak, those who were not invited were all outside the inn, kowtowing to "Tianshi Zhang" to thank him.

These believers kowtowed from the bottom of their hearts, they all really benefited from the rain of golden light just now, and now they all feel light and healthy, energetic, and naturally grateful.

'Huang Shaohong' saw that the Taoist priests entered the inn, which was already overcrowded, so he couldn't help but shook his head.

It seems that the inn is impossible to live in!
When he was thinking about renting a residence nearby for his convenience, he saw a middle-aged Taoist priest walking towards him with a smile. It was the same Taoist priest who had followed behind 'Zhang Tianshi' before.

The Taoist priest approached and bowed his head:

"This benefactor invited!"

'Huang Shaohong' was slightly taken aback, and then asked curiously:

"The Taoist priest is very polite. I don't know if you have something to do with me?"

The Taoist whispered:

"Benefactor, please come with me. My celestial master is meeting Gaozhen from all over the world at this time. His old man asked me to invite you in. He said that he will meet with the benefactor later and has something to say!"

"Master Zhang wants to see me?"

'Huang Shaohong' couldn't help being surprised, and the Taoist nodded with a smile.

To say that although 'Huang Shaohong' is not from the Zhang family, he has indeed received the inheritance of 'Tianshi Mansion', so he naturally has a good impression of 'Zhang Tianshi', not to mention he is also curious about what Zhang Tianshi asked him to do.

Even if he agreed, he followed the Taoist priest into the inn!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

'Tianshi Zhang' came to Chang'an from the west, aroused the luck of Taoism to gather, and fought against Buddhism and Li Tang Guoyun, which naturally alarmed people from the other two sides.

In "Huasheng Temple", eminent monks from all over Qianer, in their respective Zen rooms, either chant scriptures, participate in Zen meditation, or perform dharma.

When the purple energy came from the east, many eminent monks felt it and came out to watch.

Seeing the purple air from the east turning into Ganoderma lucidum, all the monks recognized that it was luck from the Daoist sect, and they naturally knew that the Taoist master Zhang Tianshi had arrived!
More than a thousand eminent monks all have different expressions, some are disdainful, some are indignant, and some have smiles in their eyes!

The master abbot of the "Xinxiang Temple" in Mount Wutai, "Monk Diankong", was the one who was indignant, and he said angrily:

"My Buddhist event, what's the matter with his Taoist sect, but I also want to join in the fun!"

This "Xinxiang Temple" was first built in the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty, and it was only more than [-] years ago, but this temple is famous in later generations, and it is the "Wenshu Temple" of Mount Wutai in later generations!
Of course, no matter how famous the 'Wenshu Monastery' is, it will be in later generations, but now the temple has been built for a short time. The abbot 'Head Kong Monk' is not very advanced, so he would not have been invited to participate in the puja.

He was invited to participate in the Dharma meeting because the 'Xinxiang Temple' was built by the royal family in the Sui Dynasty. It can barely be regarded as a royal temple, and it has a transcendent status in Buddhism.

It is precisely because the 'Headspace Monk' has not cultivated enough and has no background as a teacher, so he doesn't even know that the Mahayana Buddhism is spreading to the east and the Buddhism is about to flourish.

Master Huiguang from the "White Horse Temple" in Luoyang is an eminent monk in the world. He has cultivated into a flesh-body Arhat. Once enlightened, he will be able to become a golden body of Arhat. At this time, he smiled and said:
"Master Head Kong, don't worry, let him be arrogant for a while, after three days, it will be the time when my Buddhism rises!"

'Headspace' and some monks who were similar to him were all confused and asked why.

The other eminent monks who knew the inside story all looked enigmatic, smiling and silent!

In addition to the Buddhist side, in front of the 'Manna Palace', Tang Emperor 'Li Shimin' stood with his hands behind his back.

Although the emperor Li Tang is not as powerful in combat, he is also in the realm of a martial saint, and he can also see the luck of the sky.

At this time, he saw that the luck of that sect faintly overwhelmed Li Tang's dynasty luck, he couldn't help feeling unhappy, and snorted coldly:
"Master Zhang! The leader of Taoism in the world! Hehe, if you don't invite me, you will be domineering. What a majesty!"

Sheng Tianzi's tone was full of dissatisfaction and cynicism.

At this time, 'Yuan Tiangang' and 'Li Chunfeng' were accompanying him. Both of them are Taoist disciples, although their status is comparable to that of a national teacher, they command the world's Taoism.

(Note: This is from the perspective of the imperial court. Xuanmen generally refers to the practice sects, including Taoism, Buddhism, and other scattered sects.)
Although the two are in command of the Taoist sect, their status in the Taoist sect is incomparable with that of the "Tianshi Zhang". orders.

Strictly speaking, they are Taoist people first, and then the courtiers of 'Li Shimin'!

So at this time, when the 'Son of Heaven' mentioned 'Taomen' and 'Zhang Tianshi' with a mocking tone of dissatisfaction, both of them were embarrassed, not knowing how to deal with themselves.

But today 'Li Shimin' was accompanied by the king, not only the two of them, but also an old monk in cassock.

This old monk is the abbot of Huasheng Temple, Zen Master 'Kongci'. Hearing the words of the Holy Son of Heaven, the joy in his eyes flashed away, and he clasped his hands together and said:
"Taoism has always advocated cleanness and inaction. Zhang Tianshi is so powerful, it is not Lao Zhuang's way!"

'Li Chunfeng' said anxiously at the side:

"What the monk said is just like the so-called dragons and clouds and tigers and winds. The celestial master is the leader of Taoism in the world. He gathers the luck of the Taoism. He travels west to Chang'an and attracts the sky, just like the old man when he left the customs. It's a feeling from the heavens, not my own will, how can I say it so powerfully!"

'Kong Ci' chuckled, clasped his hands together:

"What Li Daoyou said, he will do so. My Buddhist sect is empty of all four elements, and the old monk will not argue!"

"you"

Both 'Li Chunfeng' and 'Yuan Tiangang' hated each other so much that their teeth itch, so don't argue, you've stumbled, okay?

Sure enough, 'Li Shimin' showed displeasure on his face, and waved his hand to interrupt Yuan and Li who were about to speak:
"Okay, Master Kongci is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao. He is not popular in business affairs, and his words are inappropriate. The two real people should not haggle over every detail!"

'Yuan Tiangang' and 'Li Chunfeng' were so aggrieved that they vomited blood, but it was even more unreasonable to say it at this time, so they could only scold their mothers in their hearts, and said respectfully on the surface:

"Naturally!"

'Li Shimin' ignored the two, and asked 'Kongci':
"Master, your Dharma is profound, how do you view the Daoism of the Central Plains today?"

When 'Li Chunfeng' heard that the Son of Heaven asked a monk what he thought of Taoism, it was just nonsense. He was about to speak immediately, but was secretly pulled by 'Yuan Tiangang'. When he turned his head to look, he saw the latter Shaking his head slightly at him.

'Kongci' looked at Yuan and Li with a smile, then bowed to 'Li Shimin' and said:

"Since the Son of Heaven asked the question, the poor monk dared not answer. Now the Taoism is prosperous and luck is like a rainbow. Among the Xuanmen of the Central Plains, it can be said to be unique, but this is just not in line with the Yin and Yang of the Taoism!"

'Li Chunfeng' couldn't bear it anymore when he heard this, and blurted out: "Nonsense!"

'Kongci' said with a smile: "The Taoist priest is right, the poor monk is talking nonsense!"

'Li Shimin' said to 'Li Chunfeng' very displeased:

"If the Taoist priest is tired, go down, I will talk to Master Kongci myself!"

'Li Chunfeng' was suffocated when he heard the words, and his face was extremely ugly. You must know that the 'Holy Son of Heaven' used to treat them as guests, and he spoke very politely. He called them either 'Real Man' or 'Mr.'. He has never had such an attitude like today.

But although he didn't like it, of course 'Li Chunfeng' refused to leave. He and 'Yuan Tiangang' were here, and this 'Kongci' was still a hindrance to the Taoism.

'Li Chunfeng' made up his mind not to leave, but wanted to hear what other slanderous lies this old monk had to say.

He immediately said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, it was Chunfeng who lost his temper just now!"

'Li Shimin' nodded, noncommittal, and then said to 'Kongci':
"The master went on to say, I will listen quietly to the lecture!"

'Kong Ci' laughed as usual:
"The monk, I'll just talk nonsense. If it's wrong, don't blame the emperor!"

Seeing 'Li Shimin' nodding his head slightly, 'Kong Ci' continued:
"If I use the principles of Buddhism to talk about Taoism, I'm afraid I will be scolded, so I use Taoism'Yin Yang' to talk about today's Taoism!"

"As I said before, the Taoist sect is too prosperous now, and it stands alone, but it just doesn't fit the way of yin and yang. The so-called solitary yin will not grow, and solitary yang will not grow. Therefore, the heaven and the earth are matched with yin and yang. This is the Taoist saying, monk also agree"

"It can be seen that in the Xuanmen of the Central Plains, Taoism is at the height of the sky, high Taoists and real people are emerging one after another, and the other sects are overwhelmed. This is a disaster rather than a blessing for the imperial court!"

The eyes of 'Yuan Tiangang' and 'Li Chunfeng' almost popped out. They didn't expect that this famous eminent monk would start soliciting rumors and suppressing Taoist sects as soon as he entered the palace.

Just as the two of them were about to refute, they saw 'Li Shimin' nod his head slightly: "Then according to Master's opinion?"

Monk 'Kongci' didn't beat around the bush, and said directly:

"The poor monk's humble opinion is that it is better for me to sit in the right position of the Qintian Supervisor. My Buddhist sect is empty of all four elements and has no worldly affairs in my mind. My Buddhist sect will lead the world's Taoist sects, which is exactly in line with the Taoist saying !"

"When my Buddhist school has a strong luck, I will fight against the Taoist school, and it just fits the Taoist theory of yin and yang. I think the world will be safe when I come here, and an unprecedented prosperity will be achieved!"

'Li Shimin' was noncommittal after listening, but nodded thoughtfully.

'Yuan Tiangang' and 'Li Chunfeng' became impatient. They thought Buddhism would flourish, but they didn't want to be so aggressive.

And this monk 'Kongci' actually quoted the wonderful principles of the Taoist school and suppressed the Taoist school every sentence, which is really abominable. They always heard that all the eminent Buddhist monks are good at sophistry, and now they have really learned the lesson.

'Li Chunfeng' hastily bowed and said:

"Your Majesty, don't listen to this monk's gossip to confuse the public. My Taoism comes from the Han family, and his Buddhism started from a poisonous barbarian."

'Yuan Tiangang' is not good when you hear it secretly, this holy emperor himself has the blood of Hu people, you mention Hu people, isn't it just asking for fun.

Sure enough, there was nothing before 'Li Shimin', when he heard 'Li Chunfeng' say the word 'Huren', he immediately said in a deep voice:
"Okay, I think what the mage said is correct. Even if there is no theory of Tai Chi, it is not good for a Taoist family to dominate. Thinking about the grand occasion when a hundred schools of thought contended in the Spring and Autumn Period, I also yearn for it!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

'Huang Shaohong' was taken by the middle-aged Taoist priest into the Tianzi No. [-] courtyard of the inn, and he waited for half an hour before 'Zhang Tianshi' finished dealing with the Taoist masters from all over the place and met him.

As soon as we met, the first words that 'Zhang Tianshi' said surprised 'Huang Shaohong'.

Then listen to 'Zhang Tianshi' say:

"Fellow Taoist, did you get the inheritance of my Heavenly Master's Mansion and take the 'Dragon and Tiger Great Pill'?"
