Chapter 50: Longquan Temple

"The Legend of Cultivating Immortals in the Infinite World" went to Sanjiang, asked for a few Sanjiang tickets, thanked the brothers for their support, I didn't ask for a monthly pass, and it wouldn't make me too ugly......

Master Wen began to ask them, "What is the matter with the city-state built on a hill that has been working against you?"

When this topic was mentioned, these crocodile people all shouted one after another, looking very angry.

What they said was something that only the Great Master Wen could understand. Ushirumani accepted the relationship with the power of the sun god, and if she was able to understand a little, the others would not understand it at all.

They waved their fists and spoke with righteous indignation. How evil the so-called city-state was, constantly plundering their population, and even driving the poisonous fog against them.

If it weren't for the presence of the crocodile god and the vast swamp, they would have been slain by those evil demons.

It can make these ferocious crocodile people like savages grit their teeth with hatred, but there is no way to get that city-state. You can imagine how powerful they should be.

Ushirumani was able to understand a little, and the more she listened, the more surprised she became, and suddenly she came to her senses and exclaimed, "Tezkapolipoca, is the city-state you are talking about the Fog Demon?"

Wen Fei nodded, I'm afraid so. Although there is no evidence, the descriptions of these crocodile people only seem to be somewhat similar. But his own feelings are more accurate than the world's qiē!

"But didn't you say that the city-state had been swept away by the flood in the rain, and that even the patron gods of the city-state had been killed!" said Ushirumani in horror.

Great Heavenly Master Wen shook his head: "It's not that simple, I'm afraid these fog demons are not just one." Those who believe in the god of the dead. I'm afraid there won't be just one city-state!"

"Are you saying that there is more than one Mist Demon Man?" Hearing the words of the Great Celestial Master Wen, Ushiru Mani even shuddered a little.

Those fog demons were terrifying enough, and listening to Wen Fei's words, it seemed that there was more than one. That's even more frightening.

Wen Fei smiled: "I'm afraid so." "I thought about it in my heart, I originally thought that the so-called god of the undead would be killed so easily, and I thought it was too much of a coincidence. Now it seems that it should not be so simple.

I thought that when the samurai of the Red Spot Clan were sent out to hunt down and kill Imanada Rotu, they met these Fog Demons, were they in the same group as Imada Rotto, or did the unlucky ghost of Imada Rottu also meet these Fog Demons and fell into bad luck?

Interesting......

Wen Da Tianshi was out of the customs for a year and defeated the Jurchens. Then he patrolled the grasslands until the North Sea, and then returned.

The news suddenly spread like a storm throughout the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. Especially in the north, it was even more shaking. In the place where the army of Wenda Heavenly Master passed, countless fathers and old squires were eating and drinking to welcome the army.

Wherever he passed, Dajun Qiu did not commit any crimes. Military discipline is strict. It's amazing. Along the way, never disturb the people. Wherever the army went, they began to release food for disaster relief. It also spread the reputation of the army under the rule of Wenda Heavenly Master.

However, behind the Wenda Heavenly Master, there is the desperate support of the powerful and wealthy businessmen from all over the north, supplying the needs of the army, as well as the materials needed for disaster relief.

However, the more he did, the more shocking it was for Master Wen to see. The drought was so severe that in many places the rivers were almost cut off and the crops withered.

It has just entered the boundary of Hebei in the later generations. I saw that the sky suddenly became dark, as if there was an extra layer of dark clouds.

It is the army of a hundred battles under the command of the Heavenly Master of Wenda. They were all horrified. The layer that covered the sky and left a large shadow on the earth was actually locusts.

They perched on top of a meadow that was still somewhat green, making a scalp-tingling sound. Then, when he flapped his wings and flew again, a large piece of grassland with a radius of dozens of acres became a single inch of grass.

At this time, Hebei was still under the jurisdiction of the original Liao State Nanjing Dao, and the population was naturally not as dense as in later generations, and there were large tracts of land that had not been cultivated.

The Liao State realized the two systems, and the original Han lands such as Nanjing Road and Xijing Road were naturally subject to the Han cultivation system. Other nomadic lands practiced nomadism.

In addition, the organizational capacity of the Liao Imperial Court is quite limited, and the population size of both cities in the land of Yanyun is not large.

There are still large tracts of land that have not been cultivated, and still retain their original forms, meadows and woods.

The flying locusts were still shocking, even though they were not in the fields.

This is the first time that Wenda Heavenly Master has encountered such a flying locust, and there is no very good way to deal with these things, even if it is a modern time and space. Unless pesticides are sprayed by airplanes.

However, the current Wenda Heavenly Master can't bear these things to wreak havoc in his own realm. He gave an order: "All the soldiers, follow me to fight the locusts." ”

As he spoke, he pounced, took off his robe and began to pounce on the locusts. These soldiers were all worshiped by Master Wen as a god, and they were originally very afraid of such a scene, but now when they saw Master Wen Tian doing it himself, they were no longer afraid, and their morale was great, and they followed the culling.

5,000 elite soldiers are exterminating locusts, and the efficiency is also extremely high. It took a day of hard work to cull this group of flying locusts cleanly.

Then, it was fried in oil and sent to the army as a food and vegetables. I didn't dare to eat it when I saw this thing's scalp numb, and I watched Master Wen eat it with relish, and I also ate it.

Since then, this famous dish of fried locusts has spread. Even the royal banquet of the palace is indispensable for this dish. It is even more spread all over the country, so I don't know if it is the credit of the celebrity effect.

This is just a small episode, showing the attitude of the Heavenly Master of Wenda. Originally, the government issued an order to cull locusts and forbid anyone to sacrifice to the locust god, but most of the people were in disobedience, and almost no one was willing to obey it.

At this time, the army returned, and even killed locusts halfway, and the news of using them to accompany the meal was even more spreading. The people and the government in many places did not dare to slack off this time. They all took action and began to extinguish the flying locusts.

But at this time, in the Longquan Temple. An old monk with a white beard and hair sat in the first place, with his eyebrows and eyes open, and he didn't look angry and arrogant.

"It's too unusual, it's too unusual. Some people really should go down to the eighteen layers of hell, suffer from the skin and frying, the sword mountain and the sea of fire. The old monk was full of anger and shouted loudly.

I didn't feel that I had committed any resentment after all, and Longquan Temple was built in Yanjing West Mountain. Although it is a year of great calamity, it is still surrounded by greenery.

The temple has thousands of acres of fertile land and a large pasture. Its wealth is famous throughout Tsubame Kyoto.

At this time, the sound of cicadas is endless. But he couldn't suppress the old monk's angry exclamation: "Flying locusts are also lives, how can they be killed indiscriminately? Hundreds of thousands of lives are killed at once, all of them are killed, how vicious the means are, and how can the conscience survive?"

"Yes, yes. All beings are equal. Although the locusts are small, they are also like me, and they are all life, and there is no high or low. How can you be so quick for yourself for a while, and kill so wantonly, do such a thing, it is simply madness!"

The monk below chimed in.

But the lay people sitting in the lobby, Tan Yue, were silent one by one.

These people are all big businessmen and big landowners in Yanjing, and the Liao State believes in Buddhism. Most of these people are also Buddhists.

Especially in Yanjing, it is often headed by Minzhong Temple and Longquan Temple. Minzhong Temple is the oldest existing temple in Yanjing, built for the Tang Dynasty Son of Heaven to pray for the blessing of the soldiers who died in battle, and the scale is grand and magnificent.

And Longquan Temple is not small, according to legend, after the Buddha died out, there are two Buddha teeth left in the world, one to Sri Lanka, one to the then Wuchang country, and then from the Wuchang country to Khotan.

The Southern Dynasty monk Fa Xian traveled west, and invited the Buddha's tooth from Khotan back to the capital of the Southern Qi Dynasty to worship. Since then, the tooth has been passed down and worshipped by dynasties and Buddhists.

During the period of the Five Dynasties, the Central Plains was in turmoil, and the Buddha's tooth was transmitted to Yanjing, the capital of the Liao State in the north at that time, and the mother of the Liao Prime Minister Yelu Renxian, the wife of Yanguo Tai Zheng, built an octagonal ten-story brick tower in the Longquan Temple of Xishan to worship the Buddha's tooth relic. It has been passed down to the present day.

With this Buddha treasure pressure array, this Longquan Temple is naturally not sorry for the Zhong Temple. has been fighting openly and secretly with Minzhong Temple, competing for the status of the largest temple in Yanjing.

This is not just a false name, but also has countless interests that are not to be declared. For example, more believers, more donations......

It's just that Wenda Heavenly Master single-handedly took down the entire Yanjing City. Minzhong Temple actually played a big role in it, and it also took out the rice and grain saved by the temple's property to share the worries of the Song Dynasty.

This behavior made the monks of Longquan Temple hate it to the bone. You must know that the Heavenly Master of Wenda is the so-called enemy of the Buddha.

The originally thriving Buddhism was forced to be pressed down by the Wenda Heavenly Master, so that the Buddhism in the Great Song Dynasty was even more suppressed, and it was known as a side branch of the Daomen.

Originally, the Northland Buddhism, although there were some cold lips and teeth, were more of a joke watching the fire from the other side. It's still a pseudo-religion in the Southern Dynasties, and only my Northern Dynasty Buddhism is authentic......

No one thought that Feng Shui would turn around so quickly, and the originally powerful Great Liao would collapse so quickly, and the court of the Great Song Dynasty and the Heavenly Master would actually come to Yanyun.

What is even more hateful is why the Heavenly Master Shangfu didn't come to our Longquan Temple for help at that time, but went to Minzhong Temple instead?

This makes Longquan Temple, which now has no way to surrender, hate it to the bone. No wonder now even the abbot Fa Cheng began to ignore the attitude of the monk, and shouted.

Those Tan Yue and the lay people all seemed to have cultivated their minds one by one, and their tempers had become extremely good. (To be continued......)
