The King of Fortune

Chapter 402
The news of the chaos in Lingshan spread like wildfire. After the Jade Emperor learned about it, Long Yan was overjoyed, and quickly ordered Han Rong to be called to Lingxiao Palace.As soon as he saw Han Rong, the Jade Emperor couldn't wait to tell his plan to use troops against Xiniu Hezhou.

Buddhism submits to heaven, Tathagata is the Buddha of the West, his own courtiers, how could he not care about such a big incident in Lingshan, sending troops to crusade against demons is justified.

The Jade Emperor has long been thinking about the land of Xiniu Hezhou, but the forces here are intricate, there are monsters entrenched, there are also Zhenyuanzi's Longevity Mountain, and there are two forces of Buddhism and Taoism. He can only wait in secret.

All the monsters in Luzhou in Beiju were killed, and the territory was firmly controlled by the heavenly court, while there were three other continents in the lower realm. In addition to Dongsheng Shenzhou, the Jade Emperor also wanted to take over the territories of Xiniu Hezhou and Nanfangbuzhou.

Influenced by Han Rong, he wanted to learn from the Han Dynasty. In the whole world, is it the land of the king, and the guests of the land are the ministers of the king.Dongsheng Shenzhou has been painstakingly managed by Taoism for thousands of years, and it is deeply rooted. I can't take it down for a while. With the current powerful forces in Heaven, I will never allow a second Taoism to appear.

Han Rong said: "Your Majesty is wise, but why not use a knife to kill someone."

With the current strength of Heavenly Court and the name of an excuse to send troops, it is not difficult to win Xiniu Hezhou, but in this way, it is inevitable to contact with Buddhist forces. If you are afraid of Buddhism, you must also prevent the fish from dying and the net from being broken.It is more appropriate to entrust such difficult matters to Taoism.

Once a war breaks out between the two families, it is fine for the Heavenly Court to reap the benefits of the fisherman, or to mediate as the boss.

The Jade Emperor's eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean to borrow the sword from Taoism."

Han Rong nodded, and said: "That's right, Sanqing has recommended talents in front of His Majesty all these years, and His Majesty has also arranged corresponding immortal classes for the three of them because of their identities, but these people are not small and have nothing in their hands. Real power. Sanqing is well aware of this, but seeing that my court is powerful, they have no choice but to acquiesce in this situation, and gradually put their focus on Dongsheng Shenzhou over the years."

The Jade Emperor said: "Sanqing tried his best to arrange these people, so we have to guard against them."

Those who belong to us are more at ease. Those disciples of Taoism will only obey the orders of Sanqing.

"Your Majesty's approach is right, but if the defense is too ruthless, Sanqing may lead all Taoist disciples to withdraw from the Heavenly Court, which is not a good thing for my Heavenly Court."

In recent years, Taoism has become more and more active in the lower world. If you learn Buddhism and use Dongsheng Shenzhou as your base, then Heaven will lose control of Taoism.

Too much is too much, the fairy world is a big piece of fat, and this piece of fat is in the hands of the Jade Emperor, but no matter if it is Taoism or Buddhism, everyone wants to take a bite.But the Jade Emperor didn't give them a chance to get involved at all, and it was hard to guarantee that the two would join forces to deal with the Heavenly Court together.

The Jade Emperor frowned when he heard the words. Although the Heavenly Court has grown in power after more than 1000 years of development, he still has to weigh a few times if he wants to completely tear himself apart from Taoism.

"So you take this opportunity to ask me to give Taoism some benefits and eliminate Sanqing's dissatisfaction."

Han Rong said: "That's right, this minister has exactly that intention."

"Okay, I will listen to your opinion, just to give Sanqing some benefits."

The Jade Emperor has always acted decisively. Otherwise, when he learned of the chaos in Lingshan, his first reaction would be to send troops to take the territory of Xiniu Hezhou, smashing Buddhism's plan for great prosperity in one fell swoop.

Han Rong said frankly, "Your Majesty, among the people Sanqing valued the most, there is the Great Emperor Zhenwu. This person has a high level of cultivation and came from behind. He is not inferior to the great mage of Xuandu. If Sanqing agrees to send troops, he will be named Nine Heavens Slayer Demon" Patriarch."

The Jade Emperor nodded.

……

Lihentian, Sanqing was discussing important matters.

Yuanshi Tianzun said: "Brother, the Jade Emperor borrowed a knife to kill people, and his intentions are not sinister."

Yuanshi Tianzun is a master of maneuvering. He has a clear understanding of the Jade Emperor's thoughts. Using troops against Xiniu Hezhou is a hot job. One carelessness directly leads to a war between Buddhism and Taoism.

Lao Tzu said: "I don't know what you said, but this is the first time that the Jade Emperor asked me for help from Taoism, and promised benefits. If we don't send troops, it will be unreasonable due to emotion and reason."

Yuanshi Tianzun said: "A mere Nine Heavens Demon Slayer Patriarch wants my Taoist to work for him. This wishful thinking is sound. If we want us to send troops, we can, but we should give more benefits."

Laozi nodded and said: "On this point, I will go talk to the Jade Emperor. Tongtian, what do you think about this matter.

Master Tongtian murmured: "I don't have any ideas, it all depends on what the two elder brothers plan. However, there are two ends to worry about. Now we live in the Heavenly Court, and we also ask the Jade Emperor. Naturally, the Heavenly Court is the main one."

As for Buddhism, Tongtian Sect Master still rejects it as always.

"Since that's the case, I'd like to trouble you, brother, to call all the disciples to Lihentian, so that I can announce the candidates for the troops."

After Lao Tzu ordered, Tong Tian left the Immortal Palace.Laozi glanced at Yuanshi Tianzun and said, "My dear brother, don't you have anything to tell me?"

Yuanshi Tianzun was not surprised, and said: "There is one thing I want to tell my brother. The poor Taoist played a role in fueling the chaos in Lingshan." At the beginning, Mosquito Taoist was beaten away by Han Rong and others. He stopped him and gave him another magic weapon, which laid the groundwork for the chaos in Lingshan.

Lao Tzu said in a deep voice: "My dear brother, I knew it was you, and you are the only one who has such a great ability to accomplish this great event quietly. It's just that although you did it in secret, the Tathagata is not someone who waits for you. , I’m afraid they already suspect us.”

Yuanshi Tianzun said indifferently: "So what, Buddhism has just experienced a great turmoil, which has hurt its vitality. The Jade Emperor is planning to use troops against Xiniu Hezhou again, and Buddhism will make things worse. If the Tathagata is afraid of dying in Lingshan, it is difficult to care about us. Besides, Just allow Brother Tathagata to plot against my Taoism back then, why not allow us to plot against his Buddhism?"

"This is the end of the matter, and it's hard for the poor to say anything. It's just that my brother, I hope you don't hide it from me about such a big event in the future."

Lao Tzu knew that Yuanshi Tianzun had always been obsessed with power, and it was fine with some ordinary things, but for such a big matter, if he spared himself, he felt somewhat uncomfortable, so he wanted to beat Yuanshi Tianzun.

Yuanshi Tianzun said: "What brother said is very true, after all, you are the leader of the Taoist sect."

Lao Tzu said: "Taoist Mosquito can't be kept, so I ask my virtuous brother to find a way to make him disappear in this world. Otherwise, people will know that I am one of the Taoist Sanqing, and join forces with evil spirits to deal with Buddhism. Not only the three of us have the dignity It will also affect the reputation of Taoism."

Yuanshi Tianzun said indifferently: "Don't worry, brother, I have long been concerned about this matter. Back then, I tampered with Taoist Mosquito. No matter where he is, if I want to find him, it will be easy for me."

"That's good."

The old man nodded in satisfaction.
