Daci'en Temple.
In a Buddhist hall, Hui Chu sat cross-legged, with a dark and uncertain expression on his face.
There was killing intent in his deep eyes.
A debate about Buddhism outside Nancheng not only brought shame to the Daci'en Temple, but also to the entire Buddhist sect. After this matter was fermented and promoted by the court, it was foreseeable that the people would be in an uproar and all would belittle Buddhism.
The imperial court will definitely take this opportunity to further issue decrees and policies to deal with Buddhism.
Response measures must be considered.
Especially when it comes to Lin Feng, Huichu's murderous intention is even more serious. This time Buddhism suffered an unprecedented blow. Not only the abbot Xuan Ku died, but also Bian Ji died. Even Xue Zhishan died. Buddhism was completely reduced to a laughing stock.
It was all caused by Lin Feng.
If Lin Feng is not killed, Hui Chu's heart can hardly swallow this breath.
Huichu thought carefully. At this time, a monk came in and bowed: "Uncle, Zen Master Hui'an of Yufeng Temple wants to see you. In addition, Abbot Zhishan of Baoxiang Temple also came to visit."
"please!"
Hui Chu gave an order.
When the group left Nancheng before, they all took their own teams and returned to their respective temples for resettlement. After the matter was settled, Hui'an and Zhishan came together to discuss it. After all, something big happened, and the three major temples needed to take measures to deal with it.
Hui'an and Zhishan entered in a hurry, and they sat down directly.
Hui'an got straight to the point: "Huichu, today we lost the debate with Lin Feng about Buddhism. There are two things that must be resolved immediately. First, we must avenge Lin Feng, otherwise where will the face of Buddhism go?" ?”
"Secondly, there have been rumors in the court that they want to suppress our Buddhist sect. Especially if we fail to defend Buddhism today, the court will have an opportunity and will definitely use an excuse to take action. What should we do? Although there were some discussions before, they were not specific enough and there was no detailed response. measure."
"Things have really come to pass, and we must respond and take action in advance."
Hui'an said: "Strike first and be controlled by others later. Our Buddhist sect is already at a disadvantage and cannot miss any more opportunities."
Zhishan echoed: "What Zen Master Hui'an said makes sense, and we must respond. Zen Master Huichu, you are good at planning, and you are also the leader of our Buddhist sect. How do you think we should arrange things this time?"
Huichu said slowly: "Since you asked me, my idea is simple. First, spread the word to various places and let Buddhist monks in various places encourage them, saying that the imperial court wants to suppress Buddhism and that the imperial court has been bewitched by traitors."
"The people are boiling and the local area is in chaos. If the court wants to suppress it, it is impossible."
"In addition, we cannot act alone and need the cooperation of the powerful. So when it comes to the second point, the powerful people should also ask them to take action and let them make some noise. Without the help of the powerful people, it is not easy or even impossible for the court to stabilize the situation. "
Huichu said: "In short, if the court wants to touch us, we must be prepared to fight to the death. Buddhism is not that easy to bully."
Hui'an can become a great master, and he is also a master who is not afraid of heaven and earth. He does not take the imperial power in his eyes and echoes: "According to Huichu's plan, we will cause earth-shaking this time."
Zhishan said to Amitabha Buddha, nodded and said: "This poor monk should follow these two Zen masters."
The strength of Baoxiang Temple is weaker than that of Daci'en Temple and Yufeng Temple.
Therefore, Baoxiang Temple can only follow.
Zhishan changed the subject and said: "When it comes to powerful people, Tian Ziyun is a representative. Should Tian Ziyun be invited to discuss the matter? Although what happened to Tian Changle happened, the poor monk still believes that Tian Changle was not arranged by Tian Ziyun. This person , the poor monk has some understanding."
"No need!
Huichu flicked his sleeves and refused directly.
He said forcefully: "Tian Ziyun is so domineering and self-righteous. Even what happened to Tian Changle today, he didn't reflect on his own mistakes, he directly criticized us, made us an enemy of Buddhism, and even shirked responsibility."
"Why cooperate with such a person?"
"When this battle between Buddhism and the imperial court is over, we will deal with Tian Ziyun. He thinks he is from the royal family, so he is self-righteous. In fact, he is not worth mentioning. In the eyes of the old monk, he is just a chicken and a dog."
Hui Chu had murderous intentions in his heart.
Furthermore, he also wanted to kill Tian Ziyun.
Hui'an said: "The old monk also agrees that Tian Ziyun was so conceited this time. He should pay the price for being like this."
Zhishan actually had a bad premonition in his heart.
I feel this is inappropriate.
But when Zhishan saw that Huichu and Hui'an were determined, he felt that this should be no problem.
Both of them are great masters, so that's okay.
Zhishan said: "What about Lin Feng?"
Huichu said: "Lin Feng is now in Linzi City, protected by Xuanzhen and Li Cihang, so it is impossible to assassinate him. Furthermore, Lin Feng can protect himself by arranging the master to rob and kill him. If you want to kill Lin Feng, you have to wait. There will be a chance when Lin Feng leaves. By then, without Xuanzhen and Li Cihang around, Lin Feng will definitely die."
Zhishan said: "Everything depends on Zen Master Huichu."
Hui'an nodded, stood up and said: "Now that the plan has been agreed upon, the poor monk left and went back to make arrangements. Starting tomorrow, Qi State will make waves. Starting with Linzi, and then the entire Qi State. The old monk wants to Let the emperor be greatly shocked. Let all the civil and military officials in the dynasty know that I, the Buddhists, cannot be offended."
"Farewell!"
Hui'an turned and left.
Zhishan also stood up and said, "Zen Master Huichu, I'm also taking my leave."
The two of them said goodbye and left.
Huichu sat alone in the Buddhist hall, thinking quietly.
Time passed, night fell, and it became dark in a blink of an eye. At around midnight, Lin Feng, Li Cihang, and Xuan Zhen had arrived outside Da Ci'en Temple.
Daci'en Temple is located in Linzi City and covers a vast area. Now that night has fallen, Lin Feng and the others are hiding in the dark, and no one can see them.
None of the three spoke.
Waiting quietly.
At two o'clock in the Xu hour, Langya King Tian Yu personally led ten thousand forbidden troops to the outside of Da Ci'en Temple.
Lin Feng brought Li Cihang and Xuanzhen to join them directly.
Tian Yu said: "Lin Feng, when it comes to Huichu, leave it to your two uncles."
"I promise it'll be okay."
Lin Feng answered firmly.
Just Hui Chu, for Li Cihang and Xuan Zhen, it is easy for the two of them to work together to kill each other.
Tian Yu nodded and said: "In that case, that's fine. Next, there will be the killing tonight."
"Lu Hu!"
Tian Yu gave an order.
"exist!"
Lu Hu, wearing armor, stood up in one step.
He is the commander-in-chief of Qi's imperial army. He is powerful and has become a master. He is over forty years old and in his prime. This time, Lu Hu was specifically asked to lead the troops because he considered that this battle must be won, so Lu Hu was the one to lead the troops.
Tian Yu ordered: "Send out troops and sweep away the Daci'en Temple. Kill all the monks without leaving a single one behind."
"Here!"
Lu Hu answered immediately.
"Everyone listens to the order and attacks."
Lu Hu gave the order loudly.
Ten thousand soldiers of the Forbidden Army, all wearing armor, quickly rushed out with Lu Hu and went straight to Da Ci'en Temple.
Lin Feng heard Tian Yu's order to kill everyone, glanced at Tian Yu, and did not interfere with the order. Da Ci'en Temple and the imperial court are incompatible. If they want to destroy Da Ci'en Temple, the imperial court will definitely sweep it away, so it is normal for them to kill it completely.
Lin Feng only needs to follow without interfering.
Lu Hu led the people to the gate of Da Ci'en Temple. He did not attack directly, but asked someone to knock on the door first. As soon as the door opened, the soldier slashed with his knife, and the blade fell on the monks.
With one stab, the monk was killed.
"Kill!"
The soldiers in the Forbidden Army shouted, and a group of people had already entered.
Lin Feng took Li Cihang and Taoist Xuanzhen and followed Tian Yu in.
In a short period of time, the imperial army went back and forth in the temple to kill monks who came out at night. The noise and shouts of killing soon spread, and the clanging gongs sounded in the Daci'en Temple, and the sound quickly echoed in the temple.
The monk who was on duty at night had already arrived quickly. However, the intervention of these monks was still not enough, and they were quickly killed by the imperial army. More and more monks were killed, and the news spread in the temple and reached the courtyard where Huichu lived.
"Uncle Hui Chu, something serious has happened."
"The officers and soldiers are coming. The officers and soldiers entered our Daci'en Temple and killed everyone they saw."
The monk entered Huichu's room directly and shouted loudly, his voice even more panicked and extremely nervous.
The officers and soldiers of the imperial court arrived.
Can it be blocked?
Huichu turned over and stood up. He stared at the monk who came to report and said in a deep voice: "What are you talking about, the officers and soldiers are coming to kill you? Who has the courage to raid our Great Ci'en Temple at night?"
The monk said: "They are really officers and soldiers. These soldiers are all wearing armor. They are extremely powerful. There are too many people coming, densely packed. At a glance, they are all human figures. You can't see the edges at all. There are thousands of them at least."
brush!
Hui Chu's complexion changed drastically.
how come?
The officers and soldiers dared to directly attack Da Ci'en Temple. Aren't they afraid of triggering a rebellion in the world?
"Let's go and take a look at the front."
Hui Chu quickly put on the monk's clothes and walked out.
He wanted to see who dared to bring an army to kill Da Ci'en Temple. What he can do now is to cut through the mess quickly, adopt the strategy of capturing thieves and kings, and kill the generals and soldiers, so that he can have a chance to solve the crisis in Daci'en Temple.
Then, consider subsequent arrangements.
