Westward Journey into Dragon

Chapter 479 Jizhou Tripod Movement

That old Taoist is called Taishi, and Taishi's duty is to record history, so the writing style is naturally extraordinary.After he returned to Luoyang City, he immediately wrote a memorial called "On Buddha" and submitted it.

"Buddha Theory" cites Shemo Teng and Zhu Falan's chanting and disaster relief ceremony today, and discusses in detail that the two monks used this as a cover to refine the dragon veins of the Han Dynasty, but they were backlashed by the luck of the dynasty. Bring disaster and catastrophe.First, a crow left its stool on its head as a warning, but the two monks ignored it. Finally, poisonous bees descended from the sky, resulting in eight deaths and one injury.Then there is criticism, the nib of the pen hides the Buddha like its image, but it is just a golden and jade appearance, and the meaning of it is ruined.

At the end of the "Buddhism" memorial, the old Taoist really put forward the idea of ​​choosing a geomantic place for Buddhism and building a Buddhist temple. He clearly stated that the Hu monk came from outside and did not understand the geomantic omen of the Central Plains.

After Emperor Liu Zhuang read Taishi's memorials, he was a little shaken in his idea of ​​vigorously supporting Buddhism.However, as an emperor with the posthumous title of "Ming", Liu Zhuang's political vision is very sharp. He saw that the Buddhist doctrine of persuading people to endure is very helpful for maintaining the rule, so he hesitated for a while.

The emperor hesitated, but without his instructions, the treasury did not dare to allocate funds without money and food support, and the White Horse Temple project, which was to start immediately, also temporarily stopped.

As a result, the two eminent Buddhist monks, She Mo Teng and Zhu Falan, who were shouldering the mission of teaching the Dharma, were in a hurry, and they came to the palace the next day to ask to see Emperor Liu Zhuang.

This time, Liu Zhuang did not rush to summon the two monks Shemo Teng and Zhu Falan. He needed to think about how to deal with the transmission of Buddhist scriptures.Permission is certain, but it must be limited, and it must be made to better serve one's own rule.

Three days later, Liu Zhuang summoned Shemo Teng and Zhu Falan in the Imperial Study Room, and they talked in detail for an afternoon. Because of the strict security and the formation of an enchantment by an eminent monk, only the person involved and Liu Zhuang's favorite eunuch knew the content of the conversation, and outsiders did not know what they were talking about. something happened.

One day later, the emperor ordered to build a White Horse Temple in the selected place for two eminent monks, Shemo Teng and Zhu Falan, to practice and live.

With the order of the emperor, the construction of the White Horse Temple was very fast. It didn't take long for a majestic and majestic Buddhist temple to rise from the ground.Because it is to commemorate the achievements of the White Horse and Camel Sutra, there are stone carvings of the White Horse and Camel Sutra in the temple.

Because the White Horse Temple was built with funds from the national treasury, it was equivalent to a national temple. Liu Zhuang managed it very strictly, dispatched commissioners to manage its income and expenditure, collected taxes from it, and had strict audits on those who entered the temple.

Liu Zhuang did this obviously because he only wanted to spread the teachings of Buddhism and teach the people to be tolerant, but he didn't want the power of Buddhism to grow and its tail to grow, causing disasters.

In addition to attacking the White Horse Temple, Liu Zhuang also ordered a review of all the temples and Taoist temples in the country, counting the heads, and verifying that there is no criminal record before issuing a certificate and paying taxes on a head-to-head basis.

In short, Liu Zhuang borrowed the wind of Buddhism and took advantage of the casualties before the construction of the White Horse Temple to integrate the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism and strengthen the rule of the government.

"It's really dog-eat-dog. It's a mouthful. In the end, no one ends up well. It's ridiculous to be the emperor of the world for nothing!" After Liu Zhuang's imperial decree to investigate Buddhist temples and Taoist temples came out, the Bull Demon King who was drinking with the crowd put down his wine glass , very disdainfully sneered.

The Bull Demon King was born in the Shangqing sect who was beaten to pieces, and he doesn't like the Taoist and Buddhist sects who are now competing for the orthodox humanism in Nanfangbuzhou. Several people understand his cynicism.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Jiao Demon King put down his wine glass, stroked a strand of green beard on his chin, and said, "I feel that the dragon aura around Luoyang is starting to shrink. I think it's the master who has recovered and started to restrain his aura."

"I have the same feeling." Chen Xian nodded and said.

"Could it be that Zulong really wants to be resurrected, wouldn't that cause chaos in the world?" the macaque king muttered to himself.

"Chaos is good. Only in this way can we break the current situation where the Buddha is strong and the monsters are weak. It is best to turn the world upside down." Niu Mo Wang laughed.

Chen Xian saw the expression of the Bull Demon King fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and he was slightly startled. He suddenly remembered that in "Fengshen Yanyi", after the defeat of the Master of the Tongtian Sect, after the defeat of the Ten Thousand Immortals, he had made up his mind to change the world again. Ancestor Jun noticed this thought and came out to stop it. It was hard to imagine what would happen.He secretly wondered if the Bull Demon King was thinking about waiting for these great powers to come out, and then fight and smash the world to pieces. At that time, the sage would need to come forward to solve it, and the leader of Tongtian would come out, right?

"Although the dragon aura is very majestic, it is not necessarily the ancestor dragon, maybe it is the descendant of the ancestor dragon. Their blood comes from the ancestor dragon, and they can also exude a bit or two of the majesty of the ancestor dragon. For us, it is fundamentally different. I can’t come out. I’m afraid no one in this world can tell whether the dragon’s aura is from the ancestor dragon or not, except for the sage, Fengzu, and Qilin King.” The Peng Demon King rubbed his sharp nails with a delicate nail file, and some Said leisurely.

When the nail file rubbed against the Peng Demon King's nails, sparks flew everywhere, and the already sharp nails were even more lethal, and the cold light reflected was daunting.

When Peng Demon King talked about Zulong's children, Chen Xian suddenly thought of Ao Hong'er, who had disappeared for a long time, and thought to himself that the little girl called herself the seventh princess of Zulong, and she was so proud. She is practicing here?
"Such a majestic dragon aura covering three hundred miles, if it is not an ancestor dragon, it would be a quasi-sage, tsk tsk..." King Yurong tsk tsk praised.

"Quasi-sage?" Chen Xian recalled, although Ao Hong'er gave him an unfathomable feeling at the beginning, but now that he thinks about it, he is only a big Luo Jinxian, who is only one level higher than himself now, and it is impossible to become a quasi-sage so quickly. St.

"Hey, maybe it won't be long before I can hold that chick under me, Da Luo Jinxian..." Chen Xian pulled a wicked smile from the corner of his mouth.

"If they are the children of the Zulong, then they are probably the nine sons of the Zulong." The Jiao Demon King was also full at this time, put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, picked up a cup of tea, and said while drinking.

"Didn't the nine sons of Zulong be sealed by Dayu with the nine gongs when they caused trouble during Dayu's time? How could they still release their breath?" King Yurong held a banana and gnawed it while asking questions.

"The nine sons of the Zulong are sealed in the nine shrines as a whole. As the source of the power of the nine shrines, they protect the Kyushu in the Central Plains with the strength of the nine sons. The stronger the nine sons, the stronger the power of the nine shrines, so the nine sons can practice in it. Constantly becoming stronger. The nine sons are all rebellious and rebellious, and they will be vengeful. How can they be trapped, they must struggle, and there is nothing strange about the leakage of breath." Jiao Demon King put down his teacup, thought for a while, and added: " Well, if the records are correct, this area of ​​Luoyang used to be the capital of Xia, and Ba Xia, the boss of the Nine Sons, should be sealed nearby. As the boss of the Nine Sons, Ba Xia has the strongest cultivation, and when he was sealed, his strength was close to that of a quasi-sage. I have stayed in Jiudingzhong for so long, passively doing good deeds, and gained a lot of merit. I should have become a quasi-sage and want to come out, but it's a pity..."

"What a pity?" King Yurong asked.

"Unfortunately, His Majesty Yu's seal on Jiuding is too strong, and with the blessing of Jiuzhou's power, even if he becomes a quasi-sage, he will not be able to get out." Demon King Peng said this time.

"That's not all. The power of the Jiuding seal comes from the Jiuzi. If the Jiuzi wants to break free from the sealed egg, it's tantamount to fighting against himself plus the power of the Jiuzhou. If he can come out, he will be a ghost, unless there is external help." Jiao Demon King said.

"You said, if Ba Xia released the dragon energy, he knew that there was nothing he could do, so why did he go on for so long?" The Macaque King suddenly asked.

"It should be to send a message and let someone come to save him, right? It's just that the talents of the dragon clan are withered now, who does he ask for advice?" the Flood Demon King scratched his head.

"Even if the talents are at their peak, I'm afraid no one is willing to save them? I heard that the Nine Sons are not welcomed by the clan because they can't become dragons, but because of their strength, they kill cruelly and have a bad temper. The nine brothers share similar tastes and are close to each other, but no dragon is willing to be close to them, who do they turn to for advice?" The macaque king asked again.

"Don't keep asking, you are the Great Sage of Ventilation, and you should be the one to explain our doubts to us. Why do you keep asking us?" the Flood Demon King annoyed.

"Hehe..." The macaque king smiled, scratched his head and said, "Just curious."

"Jiu Ding..." The Bull Demon King put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile, "This is a top-notch acquired treasure. Because of its existence, when the saints clashed, the world was torn apart, but the land of China was not affected. "

"It's a treasure. Its merits and virtues are comparable to those of the Three Emperors, and its strength is also the first among the Five Emperors." The Flood Demon King laughed.

"The dragon energy has dissipated. It seems that there is nothing to look forward to. Why don't we go to the East China Sea to play? I heard that there is an island near Penglai Island. The peaches are very delicious. They are just ripe now. Let's try it together?" The macaque king suggested .

"Kiwi fruit?" Chen Xian asked with a smile.

"Peach!" The macaque king said angrily.

"Oh!" Chen Xian responded, and said with a smile, "I'm free."

"I'm still waiting. I always feel that this matter will not end like this. The dragon spirit has been buoyant for so long, and there is no movement to justify it." Bull Demon King said.

"Then let's go together after the dragon's energy subsides completely." The macaque king waved his hand.

"If I have time to accompany you to the East China Sea to eat peaches, I might as well go back to the cave to sleep. Let me make it clear that I won't go when the time comes." Lion Camel King said.

"We don't just eat peaches, shark fins, abalones, sea cucumbers, lobsters, sea crabs...all of them, how about we have a seafood feast?" the macaque king said.

"Hmph, with you, dragon liver and phoenix marrow taste like chewing gum in your mouth, and fine nectar and jade liquid fall into your mouth like drinking bad water." The lion camel king said.

"I said you are a big cat, you are in a good mood and you still speak badly after eating a big meal, are you asking for a beating?"

"If the lion doesn't show its power, you will treat me as a sick cat. Don't go away and give me a hammer."

"Yeah, give me a stick."

As expected, the monster was full of energy, and now that he was full of food and drink, and had nothing to do, the lion and camel king and the macaque king, who were at odds with each other, immediately started fighting.

"The sun is so bright..." Chen Xian looked up at the sky and opened his mouth.

"I'll go for a walk." King Yu Tamarin said what Chen Xian wanted to say in Chen Xian's voice.

"Eh?" Chen Xian rubbed his nose, and after apologizing to his elder brothers, he covered his face and left, thinking in his heart that his excuses had been exhausted, and when he was about to go out for a tryst next time, it seemed that he had to change his excuses.

After escaping from the mansion, Chen Xian disappeared directly, drove a cloud to the edge of Luoshui, split the waterway, and dived directly into the water.

………………

Time flies, the black rabbit races (Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit), you chase each other, and the days pass by like this.

"Huh?" Today Chen Xian was chatting with Mingxi in Luoshui Water God's Mansion, when he suddenly found that the dragon aura around him suddenly dissipated, disappeared, and he didn't know where he went, so he couldn't help being surprised.

"What's wrong?" Mingxi asked.

"It's nothing." Chen Xian shook his head and said, the disappearance of the dragon aura is none of his business, whether it is the resurrection of the ancestor dragon's remnant, or the breaking of Ba Xia's seal, he has no direct interest in it, so he is too lazy to investigate, it is better to stay Chatting with Ming Xi here, talking about some nasty jokes is a pleasure.

"Rumble..."

Just when Chen Xian was thinking of telling another nasty joke to amuse Ming Xi, the water mansion suddenly shook violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Chen Xian was slightly startled, secretly thinking that he must have been planted by the Bull Demon King, the guy who released the dragon energy really had to make some noise before he was reconciled.

Worried that Mingxi would collide with each other, Chen Xian quickly hugged him in his arms, channeled his energy, and protected the two of them.

How could Chen Xian waste such a golden opportunity, and started to walk dishonestly around Mingxi's body.

Just when Chen Xian was about to put his hand into Ming Xi's arms, the vibration suddenly stopped, and he was pushed away by Ming Xi who was blushing.

"Shameless!" Ming Xi gave Chen Xian an angry look.

Mingxi's slightly angry and slightly angry look was very charming, Chen Xian couldn't help teasing and said, "Why am I toothless, didn't your tongue touch it when we kissed?"

"Damn it!" Ming Xi groaned, and asked after beating Chen Xian's chest twice: "I don't know what happened, the water house shook, this is the first time I have encountered it since I took office!"

"There's an accident outside, you stay in the water mansion well, I'll go out and have a look." Chen Xian said, and disappeared with a movement of his body.

The reason why Chen Xian left in a hurry was because he suddenly felt a lot of powerful aura rising up and flying towards the east of Luoyang City.

After thinking for a while, Chen Xian also flew in that direction. After flying for dozens of miles, Chen Xian found that those strong men stopped flying and stopped in the air.He looked around, and after finding the large army, he immediately followed.

Looking around, Chen Xian found that the place faces Yinghe River in the south, Jishan Mountain faces each other, Songshan Mountain in the north overlooks the Yellow River as a screen, there is a dangerous pass in the southeast, and there are strange stones like sheep in front of the pass, and Xuanyuan Pass, which is a heavy military grave in the northwest, is really Luoyang. , Xuchang's throat.The terrain is flat, the climate is mild, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is pleasant.Surrounded by nine hilltops, it turned out to be the famous Kowloon Arrival Resort.

"Here is the face of the imperial capital... Tsk tsk!" Chen Xian immediately praised the prime minister when he saw the Kowloon arrival.

"This is Yangcheng, the capital of Xia, so of course it looks like an imperial capital!" The macaque king rolled his eyes and said.

"Uh, uh, this is Yangcheng, hehe, it is magnificent, and it is indeed the first capital city of the human race." Chen Xian smiled, but thought in his heart, if he said so, the pass with the strange sheep stone should be Shiyang Pass .

"The huge earthquake just now came from here, most likely it was made by Jizhou Baxia Ding under the town of Xiadu..."
