Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 491 Being the King of People

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the power holders of successive dynasties also saw the power of Taoist masters. This is the way of slaying dragons. Therefore, they became more and more afraid of Xuanmen Taoism.

Taoist cultivators, after this incident, even more shy away from the fate of the dynasty in the world.

Even Zhang Jiao, the descendant of Zhuangzi, a great virtuous teacher with an "unfathomable" cultivation level, couldn't stand the backlash of luck, and eventually ended up an ordinary monk who died of illness. How could he take the initiative to provoke him again?

As for the many emperors in the future, they only wanted to prevent the Taoist rebellion, and they also wanted Taoists to refine the elixir of immortality, not to mention that the emperors could not live forever. Even if they could, it would be wishful thinking.

The vast majority of emperors always seem to be too worried about the stability of their throne.

Doubt whether this courtier is unfaithful, whether another family wants to rebel, and what are the movements of those who are in opposition.
Even the Taoists, who have always been indifferent, have been holding back for hundreds of years to explode a thunderstorm, so what will happen if other families get their minds up?

Confucianism, Legalism, and Military Strategies are already inseparable from the dynasty, but schools like Mohism, Zongheng, and Yin-Yang have never been peaceful people.

After the Qin and Han Dynasties, these three families gradually disappeared. If it is said that the Yin Yang family fled overseas after the death of Ying Zheng; The Mohists, who were not bound by the imperial court, directly cut off the inheritance.

Regarding these matters, in the Huoyun Cave, Fa Hai also discussed with several human kings what kind of decision would be made if such things happened during their rule?
At that time, Dayu laughed directly and said: "Since I am a human king, naturally everyone in the world must obey my orders, whether they are immortals or demons in the world. There are no exceptions. All schools of thought are originally the schools of the human race, so naturally they must obey the human king order."

"What if they don't listen?" Master Sanzang asked. After all, all schools of thought are competing for the status of prominent scholars in the world. On the other hand, they are also fighting for the fate of the human race. Once they gain power, how can they not suppress other schools?

Such a thing as the peaceful coexistence of various schools of thought, I am afraid that even Confucius dare not boast that Haikou can achieve it, because many of their ideas are fundamentally in conflict.

However, it is a pity that Confucius taught all things with Confucianism, and his mind is inclusive of all rivers. It is a pity that people's lifespan is limited, and there were many outstanding people in the world at that time.

At the end of the final limit, it was a great surprise to be able to ascend to the Huoyun Cave. But on the other hand, it was really uncomfortable to sit in the Huoyun Cave and watch the suffering of the world, but not be able to help.

Although Confucianism is respected in today's world, Confucius knew very well that if Dong Zhongshu hadn't "perfected" the theory of the relationship between heaven and man, it would be a matter of time before Confucianism would be dismissed by the court.

It was at this time that Confucianism began to continuously absorb the theories of various schools for its own use and to serve the emperor's imperial power. This formed the situation of "dismissing all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone".

Regardless of whether Confucianism really regards the Son of Heaven as the supreme in their hearts, in short, the superficial writing is very beautiful. It is not like other schools of thought, which blatantly restrict the monarchy.

For example, when the emperor heard that "the son of heaven breaks the law and the common people are the same crime" and "three cardinal guides and five permanent principles", no matter how reasonable the former is, the emperor must choose the latter.

But most emperors often say the previous sentence to show their sageness.

"Actually, the reason why the Human King is the Human King is because our power seems to be invincible in this world and can protect the human race to a certain extent." Shaohao said with a smile: "But in fact, among the human race, it is definitely not what we say. Under the King of Humans, there are leaders and patriarchs of various tribes, and they also have decision-making power in many matters. Among them, it is not only the human race."

For this Great Emperor Shaohao, Fa Hai still knew a thing or two about the rumors that the Bainiao tribe all worshiped him under his command, and this was the only collective surrender of the Birdniao tribe after the Phoenix returned to the southern border.

From this, it can be seen how powerful the great Emperor Shaohao was at that time.

Emperor Zhuanxu also laughed and said: "Actually, the gods didn't want to listen to my order back then, so I asked them to stay in the sky and not come down, as for the evil spirits."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Emperor Zhuanxu didn't say anything further, but all the human kings present laughed boldly and recklessly. Obviously, when the human kings ruled the world, life was not easy for the evil spirits, and Dayu's fierce power is still there today.

Xuanyuan Huangdi said with some regrets: "Back then, the hundred schools of thought were the outstanding figures of my human race. It is a pity that internal conflicts continued. If someone can join the hundreds of schools to serve in one place like Yingzheng and the Six Kingdoms. Our human race today It's hard to imagine what a grand scene it is."

"In this way, the actions of the first emperor are more like the means of a king." Fa Hai sighed.

"It's not the right time for Ying Zhengsheng." This sentence was said by Emperor Fuxi.

Obviously, the ancestors in Huoyun Cave fully recognized His Majesty the First Emperor. From their expressions and words, it can even be inferred that if Ying Zheng hadn't been born 1000 years earlier, he might also be a human being. king of people.

It is a pity that when he was born, the human king had already withdrawn from the stage of history, and the pattern of the emperor ruling the world had already taken shape, which could not be shaken by human power.

This is also one of the reasons why His Majesty the King felt sorry for this outstanding junior.

Dayu also revealed a secret that no one in the world knows: "He was unwilling to go all out, and wanted to fight hard. Therefore, he used the Jiuding as a base to smelt twelve golden men, intending to gather the luck of the human race and break through forcibly. The fate of the son of heaven, and then return to the king to rule the world. It is a pity that the success fell short and died of the backlash of heaven."

Emperor Shun even pointed out, "That Heavenly Khan is not a peaceful person either. He compares himself with Emperor Qin and Hanwu. Even Emperor Ziwei incarnated in the lower realm, but it seems that he has escaped the control of Emperor Ziwei. You Returning to the human world. If we can help him, maybe he won't be able to follow Ying Zheng's footsteps."

Of course, this imperial brother himself is restless. He really wants to prove the Daoist King and ascend to Huoyun Cave!
After Li Shan's mother entered the mountain gate and formally took her seat, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun led the prince, princes and princesses, and officials into the temple in the end.

It wasn't that Li Shimin deliberately wanted to come last, in fact, he rather wanted to come earlier, after all, knowing that there would be so many gods and bodhisattvas coming today, even if he was the Son of Heaven, he would inevitably have some curiosity.

This is Fahai's arrangement, and it is also an expression of his position to the three realms of practice, heaven and Buddhism. He Tang Sanzang is a member of the Great Tang Dynasty, and he will protect the Great Tang Dynasty in the future.

At first, Li Shimin expressed his concern to Yudi vaguely, "If I show up at the end, wouldn't it be considered disrespectful to the gods and Buddhas?"

"Your Majesty, the gods and Buddhas will bow their heads and salute when they see the king of men." At that time, Fa Hai only said this sentence, which immediately made his blood churn, and even faintly broke through a small realm, and the power of his blood surged endlessly. interest.

This emperor's temperament, Fa Hai has also been touched, at least in this aspect of "great success", he is definitely a model among emperors in the world.

Especially when he knew that he was aiming at the Huoyun Cave, it was easier to be sure. On brother's face where emotions and anger were not shown in the past, it is rare to see envy.

As for jealousy, Fa Hai didn't feel it.

The opening ceremony was presided over by Fa Hai himself, so he waited for all the guests to arrive before he dressed up to attend.

Wearing a brocade cassock and holding a tin rod with nine rings, the appearance of this school of eminent monks, the brilliance of the Buddha is indeed a well-deserved holy Buddha of the Three Realms.

Some monks who came to join in the fun, it was the first time they saw Master Sanzang, and they couldn't help but have the idea of ​​converting to my Buddha just by looking at it. Heshi, knelt on the ground, and worshiped in the direction of the holy Buddha.

One move, and the second follows
When the people gathered in the city to watch the excitement saw the "immortals and Bodhisattvas" all kneeling in the direction of the Sanzang Master in the temple, they stopped standing. Even the Sanzang Master had issued a "decree" before, and they were not allowed to kneel and worship. At this moment, he knelt down directly and said: "Holy Buddha is merciful."

In fact, the real people hesitated for a long time, and those who really knelt down decisively were those goblins who came after hearing the news, especially on the westbound road, who were let off by Master Sanzang and crossed by the "White Dragon Bodhisattva". Transformed goblins.

It was their worship that led the people in Chang'an City to worship the holy Buddha together.

Even the chant of "Holy Buddha's Mercy" was first shouted by these little demons and then passed on to the surrounding people, and it was out of control.

Originally, there were only scattered and scattered shouts, but after shouting and shouting, for some reason, the rhythm of the crowd became completely consistent, and the people of the whole city came to watch the ceremony. The little demons who have never discussed it before, but now they seem to be one, with a huge momentum, and they go straight to the sky.

over nine days.

Although the Jade Emperor did not go down to earth in person, he was still in the fairyland, watching the founding ceremony of Master Sanzang's Consciousness-Wei Sect with the Queen Mother.

Master Sanzang can be regarded as a sudden emergence. In just a dozen years, a Buddhist learner who went west from the Tang Dynasty has become such a revered holy Buddha of the Three Realms. It is impossible for the Jade Emperor not to consider the relationship with this holy Buddha How to deal well.

Fortunately, Erlang Zhenjun, who is now acting on behalf of the Heavenly Court in the Three Realms, and Master Sanzang are inseparable, and this is an excellent start.

Seeing the scene in the lower realm, the queen mother on the side suddenly said with emotion: "I don't know if you and I in the lower realm will also induce all living beings to worship like this."

"Hehe—" It was also because there were only the two of them in the Yaochi, and there was no one else, so the Jade Emperor couldn't help but chuckled a few times when he heard the words, as if to say: You're just talking about dreams, right?
But seeing that the Queen Mother's expression was a little stiff, the Jade Emperor subconsciously explained: "Let's not mention the rest of the races, just talk about the people of the Central Plains. They say that they pray to immortals and worship gods and Buddhas, but in fact, most people don't care about gods and Buddhas." Respect is superficial at best."

"Superficially respectful?" The Queen Mother shook her head, "A few days ago, there was a mad student who was angry and scolded the sky because he failed in the lower realm's scientific examination. People like this probably don't even have superficial respect. "

"Curging the heavens is a capital offense. Since the empress already knows about this matter, what happened to Kuangsheng?"

"That crazy student was taken away by the people from the Temple of Justice. Meishan's sixth son, in the name of God, punished him to finish a thousand sets of imperial examination questions, saying that letting him die is too cheap for him. It's better to let him live than die."

"Oh?" The Jade Emperor had never heard of this before, "What happened later?"

"Later? He rushed to the exam again in the second year and became the number one student in high school. But he is no longer as arrogant as before, and he has become more humble. Now he is the county magistrate under the rule of Datang Yi. The government is clear and good. Of course. , he naturally never scolded the thief again."

Jade Emperor: .
Nether.

Even with thousands of reminders, things still developed in this direction. Even though Fahai had expected it beforehand, he really didn't expect it to be such a big scene, and even he couldn't control it for a while.

"Amitabha."

The Bodhisattva chanted the Buddha's name, and said to the Tathagata beside him: "Please look, Buddha, this Chang'an city is full of magnificent scenery that people's hearts desire."

Dainichi Tathagata also sighed for a while, and then said to Guanyin Bodhisattva: "It seems that when we come to the world to show our holiness, there are also scenes of people worshiping, but... it is really difficult to gather such pure vow power."

Guanyin Bodhisattva pretended to be curious and asked back: "Could it be that the Buddha has never seen such a scene before? Has he received such vows?"

Dainichi Tathagata immediately stopped talking. There is no such thing as making fun of people!
When the surrounding Arhats and Bodhisattvas saw this scene, they couldn't help but still secretly laughed, and said in their hearts: The Guanyin master is naturally different from ordinary Buddhas. The Guanyin master is compassionate and saves all living beings. That's not true I am just joking.

"Have you ever seen it?"

This sentence is also said by the Bodhisattva. The goal is that all the Arhats and Bodhisattvas present will have exactly the same expressions as the Dainichi Tathagata.

"Actually, what all sentient beings want is not high." Taking this rare opportunity, the Bodhisattva taught by precepts and deeds: "It is nothing more than seeking rewards for good deeds and evil deeds. If there is no response to good deeds, then there will be fewer and fewer good deeds; On the contrary, the evil ones will not receive retribution, but the evil ones will only increase in number and become more and more ruthless. In this world, if the evil ones overwhelm the good ones, then do you have to rely on those evil people to offer your incense?"

"Don't say they are unwilling to worship, even if they kowtow loudly in front of your golden body, the incense burns uninterruptedly. But you, do you dare to accept it openly?"

Bodhisattvas seldom see such a solemn appearance, which makes Arhats and Bodhisattvas dare not speak loudly.

With such an uncontrollable situation happening right now, Fa Hai did not panic. In order not to disappoint the people of the whole city, he directly rode a cloud into the air and said, "Everyone please stand up, this poor monk will say it again, I don't need to see you in the future." bow down."

"Holy Buddha is merciful!"

The sentient beings shouted again, and this time they all got up together.
