Fang Jian looked at the silent monks and spoke again: "If there are Taoists who don't accept the first point I just said, I will not force you to accept it. But I just want to trouble you Taoists to leave the Shaluo Kingdom. , you can go to other places in Xiniuhezhou outside the Shaluo Kingdom to rebuild temples, but what I want to tell you is that the Shaluo Kingdom is not the last, let alone the only place to be rectified. Even if you go elsewhere, sooner or later you will This day will come.”
After finishing speaking, Fang Jian said to the monks: "Those who accept the rectification should not move. Those who do not accept the rectification please stand up."
After Fang Jian finished speaking, there was a burst of noise below, and then more than 20 monks stood up one after another. They looked at each other, and then said to Fang Jian: "Master Hongqing, these poor monks cannot accept it."
Fang Jian nodded and said: "Okay, leave the location and name of your respective departments, and you will be required to move out of Shaluo Kingdom within one month. I have a bad word in front of you. If you have not moved out after one month, Xitian Mansion will force you to move out. Execute it, and when that time comes, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
The more than 20 monks came forward immediately after hearing the words, and then wrote the location and name of their monastery on the jade slips, and were received by the general beside Fang Jian.
In the blink of an eye, only 90 of the 118 monasteries were left, that is, 28 temples were gone.
As for the remaining ninety temple abbots, their eyes were all focused on Sang Mojie, and Fang Jian also noticed this.
It seems that Sangmojie has extremely strong control over the Buddhist forces in the entire Salo Kingdom. There are actually 90 abbots from 118 temples following Sangmojie. This shows that there is more to it than meets the eye. So simple.
But this is fine, as long as Sang Mojie is willing to cooperate with him, then this situation will be very beneficial to Fang Jian.
"Okay, the remaining Taoist friends all accept the first article. Next is the second statement of the Encouraging Good Dharma Conference." Fang Jian glanced around and then said: "The second law, Sha The newly integrated temples in each county of Luo Kingdom are equal to Bu Kong Temple and have no affiliation. However, all temples including Bu Kong Temple, no matter which Buddha or Bodhisattva you worship, must have a separate hall in the temple dedicated to it. The memorial tablets of Xitianfu are enshrined, and the abbots of each temple automatically obtain the position of 'Ke Qing' of Xitianfu. From now on, the edicts issued by Xitianfu, as long as they do not violate Buddhist teachings, must be followed by all Buddhist disciples in Shaluo."
Fang Jian said this and said to the monks: "If you agree, Xitian Mansion will sign an oath with you and will not violate each other. If Xitian Mansion issues an edict that violates Buddhist teachings, you can reject the edict based on the oath and your position as 'Ke Qing' of Xitian Mansion." .
However, if the edict does not violate Buddhist teachings, but there are Buddhist disciples who do not follow it, they will be punished according to the law of heaven! "
Everyone was confused when they heard this second statement. They seemed to understand it, but they didn't seem to understand it.
Especially the position of guest minister of Xitian Mansion that Fang Jian mentioned. What is the use of this thing? Moreover, a separate hall must be built in the temple specifically to enshrine the tablet of Xitianfu. There is no precedent for the Buddhist temple in Xiniu Hezhou to enshrine the temple of the Heavenly Palace.
If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it, so the ninety abbots who stayed turned their attention to Sangmojie again. The boss is here, just listen to the boss!
Sang Mojie seemed to feel the gazes of the ninety people behind him, so he stood up slowly and said to Fang Jian, "The poor monk has no objection."
As Sang Mojie spoke, the ninety people behind him immediately stood up and worshiped Fang Jian in unison: "We have no objection."
Fang Jian suddenly smiled, and then he nodded and said: "In that case, we can now enter into the discussion of integrating the temple and recommending the abbot, and Taoist friend Sangmojie will preside over it."
After hearing this, Sang Mojie immediately bowed and said, "Yes."
Subsequently, Sangmojie began to preside over the integration and merger of ninety temples, of which every fifteen were merged into one temple, and one of the fifteen abbots was elected as the abbot and the remaining fourteen as elders.
An hour later, the results of the integration came out. The six newly merged temples and their abbots were: Master Miaoyan of Bodhi Temple, Master Yeling of Jingkong Temple, Master Zhikong of Miaogai Temple, Master Yezhen of Moran Temple, Guangdu The temple's Beiji Divine Monk and Master Yunxiu'an Jingqing.
Then, Fang Jian signed an oath with Sangmojie and the above six abbots. The content of the oath is: "No matter which Buddha or Bodhisattva is enshrined in each temple, a separate hall must be dedicated to the Xitianfu tablets in the temple, and each The abbot of the temple automatically gets
Obtained the position of "Ke Qing" in Xitian Mansion. From now on, as long as the orders issued by the Xitian Mansion do not violate Buddhist teachings, all Buddhist disciples in Shaluo must abide by them and do not violate each other after the oath is signed. If the edict issued by the Xitian Prefecture violates Buddhist teachings, the abbot of each temple can reject the edict based on the oath and the status of the "guest minister" of the Xitian Prefecture. However, if the edict does not violate Buddhist teachings, but there are Buddhist disciples who do not follow it, they will be punished according to the law of heaven! "
As the seals of Fang Jian and the seven abbots were imprinted on the oath, the oath officially came into effect. Because the oath was signed at Fuku Temple, it was later called the 'Fuku Temple Alliance'.
After Fang Jian signed the oath, he sent a memorial letter back to Xitian Mansion, which was then delivered directly to the Heavenly Court by Xitian Mansion.
Then on the next day, Taixuan Chengwu Lang Qin Yi Zhenren came to Bukong Temple with the imperial edict of Dongji Qinghua Emperor, the chief envoy of Taixuan Province.
Qin Yi Zhenren read out the imperial edict in front of Fang Jian and Sang Mojie, allowing Fang Jian to establish the position of "Ke Qing" in Xitian Mansion, and ordered Tiangongyuan to refine the Ke Qing talisman and send it to Xitian Mansion.
The imperial edict of Emperor Qinghua of Dongji further stabilized the foundation of the Fukuji Alliance and fully affirmed Fang Jian's work in Xitianfu.
However, because Fang Jian was too busy, Qin Yi did not reminisce with Fang Jian, but returned to heaven after passing on the imperial edict.
After Master Qin Yi left, Fang Jian was happy, but the monks were worried. Except for Sang Mojie, every monk who participated in the persuasion ceremony had a sad face.
The Heavenly Court's instructions to Fang Jian must have come, but the Buddhas of Buddhism did not give them any instructions. Even the Northern Buddha, whom they had worshiped for a long time, did not pass down any instructions to them from the beginning to the end.
Not even a Bodhisattva's decree has arrived, which makes the monks not worried. They must know that if the Buddha and Bodhisattva of Buddhism do not approve, other Buddhist disciples can treat them as traitors.
But Sang Mojie was not worried at all, and always had a calm and indifferent expression. When other monks saw that he was so calm, their inner anxiety was relieved a lot.
Finally, on the third day, the Buddhist edicts came, but they did not come from the North Buddha, but from two edicts from the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan.
When the excited monks listened to Sangmojie read out the contents of the two decrees, the excitement on the faces of the monks gradually turned into confusion.
Because of these two decrees, one comes from the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng, and the other comes from the Buddha from the East, which is the future Buddha Maitreya.
As we all know, although the ancient Buddha and Maitreya Buddha of Randen are equal in status to Sakyamuni Buddha, one is an ancient Buddha and the other is a future Buddha. In the final analysis, the two of them only have an extremely noble status in Buddhism and do not have any actual authority at all. .
Because Sakyamuni Tathagata Buddha is the 'present Buddha', and only the present Buddha is the Buddha who holds the true authority of Buddhism.
However, despite this, for the monks of the Sharo Kingdom, having the ancient Buddha and the future Buddha endorse their Fuku Temple Alliance can already reassure them, because this means that within Buddhism, there is no They regard him as a traitor.
In fact, their worries are groundless. If signing a covenant with Heaven is betrayal, then Buddhism is Heaven's biggest rebellion.
This is why Sang Mojie is not worried at all, because he has already overcome many things, including some conflicts and struggles within Buddhism.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of broken gold objects and the sound of objects falling to the ground in the entire Fu Kong Temple.
In the blank eyes of the monks, Sang Mojie slowly raised his head.
At this time, a monk from Fu Kong Temple hurriedly rushed into Sang Mojie's meditation room, and then said to Sang Mojie and the other six abbots: "Abbott, it's bad, all the golden bodies of Buddha Buddha Buddha, The Buddha statues...all collapsed.”
This is the response of Buddha Amitabha to the Encouraging Dharma Assembly and the Alliance of Buddha Temples. Not only Buddha Temple, but also all the temples that have agreed to the Alliance of Buddha Temples, all the golden bodies and statues of Buddha Buddha inside are collapsed at the same time.
In other words, Buddha Buddha no longer recognizes these monks as his dharma transmission, and these monks can no longer enshrine his Buddha statues, including his disciple Sangmojie, and his dharma transmission in the human world, Fu Kong Temple.
"Master, what should we do now?" The monks who had reacted hurriedly asked Sangmojie.
Sangmojie clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name, and then said: "From now on, all temples will enshrine the golden statue of the third generation Buddha."
The so-called "vertical" Buddhas of the third generation are the ancient Buddhas of Lantern, Sakyamuni Tathagata Buddha and Maitreya Buddha.
In Buddhism, if you don't have a Buddha to worship, then you only need to worship the Buddha of the Third World, because strictly speaking, all people in Buddhism are disciples of the Buddha of the Three Worlds.
...
After Fang Jian learned that the golden body of Buddha Buddha had self-destructed, he directly issued an edict in the name of Xitian Mansion. It was forbidden for any monks in Shaluo to worship Buddha Buddha privately. If he found that the altar should be destroyed and the temple was destroyed, he would be punished according to the laws of heaven. .
Since you are so powerful that you allow your own disciples to destroy the Buddha statues enshrined by you, then fine, then don’t receive even a shred of worship anywhere under my control.
On the fifth day, Fang Jian announced that the Dharma Assembly for Encouraging Good Deeds was officially over. All the abbots from various temples who came to participate in the Dharma Assembly for Encouraging Good Deeds returned on the same day. They were going to complete the integration and merger of the temples in various counties, and then reunite with Sangmojie. Let's go to Xitian Mansion to discuss matters.
Fang Jian, on the other hand, began to lead a group of heavenly and divine generals to search for traces of the general who was captured and killed. As the captured general of Xitian Mansion and a second-grade general in heaven, he wanted to see people alive and his corpse when he died. He must not be inexplicable. disappear.
On the sixth day after finding it, the divine general responsible for guarding the Heavenly Eye Mirror in Xitian Mansion reported important news to Fang Jiantong. When they checked the past records of the Heavenly Eye Mirror, they discovered traces of the capture and killing of the general.
After Fang Jian received the notice, he immediately ordered the general to carefully investigate the whereabouts of the general who was captured and killed, and then sent the general to trace the area where the general's whereabouts were left as shown in the Sky Eye Mirror.
But just when Fang Jian led the heavenly and divine generals to search for and kill the general, an extremely explosive news instantly shocked the entire Xiniu Hezhou cultivation world.
It was a spiritual light shadow, a spiritual light shadow that lasted for ten hours, and the information revealed by the person who spread this spiritual light shadow was even more shocking, just because the male protagonist in this spiritual light shadow was Xi Luo Tao, the general who captured and killed Tianfu.
That's right, this spiritual light spread throughout the Xiniu Hezhou cultivation world in just five days, recording the happy life of Xitian Mansion's capture and killing general Luo Tao and the five female demon immortals.
Moreover, this spiritual light shadow is ten hours long, and there is no other superfluous content in it. It is all about capturing and killing the general and the five female fairies!
In an instant, the entire Xitian Mansion was plunged into a vortex of huge scandal and public opinion storm. Even the provinces of Tianting and Taixuan were alarmed by this spiritual light.
When Fang Jian got this spiritual light and looked at it carefully with General Cutting the Tan, General Breaking the Temple, and Transferring the Order, the three generals instantly fell into silence.
Fang Jian's eyes were fixed on the five female fairies within the shadow of the spiritual light. Watching the five of them fighting with the general who captured and killed, while constantly emphasizing his identity as the general of Xitianfu, Fang Jian's left hand directly pressed the button. On the hilt of the Taiyi Golden Light Sword at his waist.
"You bastard who doesn't know how to live or die!"
Fang Jian looked at the five female fairies in the aura image and said in a cold tone.
Soon, Taixuan Capital Province directly issued an edict of accountability to Xitian Mansion, and the edict was soon sent to Fang Jian from Xitian Mansion by the gods.
After Fang Jian read the edict, he passed it on to the three generals.
When the three generals of Fatan read the edict, their faces became very ugly. The envoy holding the edict held the edict in his hand and said with a sad face: "The words of the great envoy are very harsh."
Emperor Qinghua of Dongji, who had only praised Fang Jian two days ago, issued a very strict edict this time, and ordered Fang Jian to deal with the matter as soon as possible and properly, otherwise it will cause huge damage to the majesty of heaven.
"Remove the blockade of Bukong Temple, and immediately dispatch all the divine generals of Xitian Mansion to seal off all borders of Sharo Kingdom! At the same time, we will search all the monks and demon fairy caves in Sharo Kingdom. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed!"
Fang Jian put away his spiritual light, and then issued an order to General Cutting the Tan, General Destroying the Temple, and Transferring Envoys.
When the three heavenly generals heard the words, they immediately bowed solemnly and said: "I will obey the decree of the law!"
Later, Fang Jian found Sang Mojie and issued a decree, ordering all Buddhist cultivators above the True Immortal level in Bu Kong Temple to dispatch to participate in the search, rescue and capture of the general and the five evildoers in Xitian Mansion.
Naturally, Sangmojie had no objection, not to mention that the general who had been captured and killed had disappeared from Bu Kong Temple. Now that this happened, Fu Kong Temple was also responsible.
Moreover, the Fukuji Alliance has been signed, and the two orders issued by Fang Jian, namely, 'rescuing people' and 'catching monsters', are completely in line with Buddhist teachings.
In this way, all the monks above the True Immortal Realm of Fu Kong Temple were dispatched under the decree of Sangmojie!
