Several headmasters nodded: "I didn't expect that the court's thorough investigation would be so meticulous, and there would be those disciples who didn't live up to their expectations. They didn't even know that our reputation was ruined."
"I have been practicing in the mountains for many years, but I still can't resist the temptation of red, pink, gold and silver in the world."
"However, I suggest that it should not be as simple as it should be. After all, there are back and forths in discussions."
Li Chunfeng and Wuyouzi nodded: "Yes, it should be like this."
"good"
People from the first district gathered around and began to analyze each clause, removing some of the clauses they wanted that the court must deal with, leaving some that could be disputed.
For example, the number of priests
Taoist land
number of Taoist temples
The scope and strength of the assessment
The Taoists just want to get more benefits and give them good treatment. Li Mingda is not stingy with money, nor will he take the initiative to take away their beliefs and territory. He just wants them to admit it verbally and enter his own world. No matter how much I try to run away from the bowl, I can't escape.
The gods are displayed there, and the mythological stories are also hung there. You worship the Sanqing Dao Ancestor. I am the Supreme Being of Ten Thousand Immortals. No matter how you calculate it, I am bigger than you. This condition remains unchanged.
Then just say
The Taoist holy statue remains unchanged, but Li Mingda's star, sun and moon must be painted on the back, and if conditions permit, Li Mingda's Mingzun statue must be built.
First of all, the main teaching of each mountain should be completed within one year, and the small Taoist temples in various places should be completed within two years.
The advantage is that when cleaning up religions, the proportion of property given to Taoism is 2 times higher than that of Buddhism at the most and four times at most, which is too much.
Then there is the issue of official disc reading, and the personnel should also be the same, just more than those bald heads.
It seems like a angry child here.
They didn't even know how cruel Li Mingda was going to be, and they wanted to restrict religion to the limit, so that they wouldn't have to drag people to the temple if they met the donors and just said "you are destined to the Buddha".
I also don’t want to encounter those who throw scavengers, piranhas, snapping turtles, and spring water into the river, which not only destroys the natural environment but also adds a lot of trouble to the government and people’s livelihood work.
The two sides negotiated smoothly
It ended quickly
Taoism recognizes the dominant position of Mingzun Holy Cult, and recognizes and merges it into the Great God System. While maintaining the independence of the faith, it accepts the paid deployment of Mingzun Holy Cult. Mingzun Holy Cult must ensure that Taoism purifies religion in the court. This piece gives enough benefits and status.
As for wanting to continue being the state religion, Li Mingda said that if you work hard, you don't have to think about it if you get the position.
They didn't expect Li Mingda to take over, so they didn't push too hard at all. If they found out, they would definitely cry and faint in the toilet. By the time they found out, it would be almost too late.
After the negotiation between the two parties, they had a cheerful meal and chat. Among the three Zhang Jiao brothers, Zhang Jiao was the most powerful in knowledge and directly impressed the masters of each mountain.
Things went so smoothly
Old Li was stunned
Damn, I thought how long the conversation would take.
Taoism was taken over, leaving only Buddhism, which obviously couldn't afford to cause any trouble.
After sorting out and revising the contents of the negotiations between the two families, he informed the whole country. Li Mingda also relied on the imperial system to spread the news to all the lands of the Tang Dynasty.
After the news came out, the monks in the temples in Chang'an City who were still chanting about Bodhisattva's blessing and Buddha's blessing went crazy.
ヾ(｡｀Д´｡)
Why did it become like this?
The promised dispute between Buddhism and Taoism
The court, you can't do this.
that
Can we also go and talk?
However, by the time they decided to go to the Shaolin Temple to recruit reinforcements, it was already too late.
Shaolin Temple
Holy places in various martial arts myths and legends
Some people are chasing the holy places in the hearts of Buddhist believers
Now the mountain gate has become unusually deserted
There are fewer and fewer pilgrims and believers coming and going in the past. In addition, their new abbot fell down the cliff a few days ago. His mentality has changed a lot. His behavior is very strange, but the Dharma is quite profound. Rarely, he often speaks words that are difficult to understand and contain Buddha nature.
Today, the monk Jie Chi who was in Chang'anli to make a stop at the Shaolin Temple hurried back. The Zhike monk Jueming at the door saw Jie Chi and greeted him: "Amitabha, is this Master Jie Chi?"
In the past, Jie Chi didn't realize that he hurried up the mountain today and realized that the location of the Shaolin Temple was a bit high. If he had something important to do, he would have to climb for a long time. He wiped the sweat from his face and said hello to Jueming: "Well, Jueming, I want to see the abbot, senior brother"
Jueming nodded: "Uncle, come with me. Uncle, let me remind you."
Jie Chi: "What?"
Jueming scratched his head: "Master had a hard time with his brain a while ago, and his spirit is different from before. Please pay attention when you speak."
Jie Chi looked worried: "Don't say these useless things, these are trivial matters, hurry up."
The Taoists are all together with the gangsters in the court, and they want to clean up Buddhism in the world. It doesn't matter if they fall or not, as long as people don't die, it will be over. Take the time to find a solution.
Jie Chi, who hurriedly walked in without even bothering to say hello to his brothers, nephews and others on the way, arrived at the door of the abbot's house in a hurry.
Jueming came in and said, "Master, uncle Jie Chi is here."
A young voice from the door said: "Jie Zhi, let me think about it, if I didn't think of it, let him come in."
The corners of Jueming's mouth twitched unnaturally and he nodded: "Yes, Master"
He called Jie Chi to the door and whispered: "Buddha bless you" and then looked at Jie Chi deeply as if to bless him.
Jie Chi didn't notice Jue Ming's eyes and walked in in a hurry.
Come in
I found that it seemed like nothing happened.
In front of me is still the abbot who was caught by his master on the way and turned into their senior brother inexplicably.
Jie Chi: "Senior brother? Senior brother Jie Se?"
Quit sex
Yes, it was the name of his senior brother that was half-revealed. Although Jie Chi was puzzled, he must listen to his master's words.
Jiese sat there expressionlessly, pointing to the futon in front of him.
Jie Chi sat down obediently and told the Taoists about the Ming Zun Holy Sect and the court's treatment of Buddhism and Taoism. Then he asked Jie Chi who looked calm: "Brother Abbot, what should we do~!"
Jie Se brought a basin of water from the side and pointed it at Jie Chi.
Jie Chi looked at it for a while and suddenly realized: "Senior brother, are you saying that your mind should be as calm as water, calm and calm, and let the rain and wind blow?"
Jie Se looked at Jie Chi with a look of disgust: "That basin of water shines on your face. People must be self-aware. How can we, a group of monks, defeat the Tang Dynasty with a million troops?"
Jie Chi looked blank: "What should we do?"
Jiese took out an official disc and said: "The news has been sent to the court. Just eat and drink when you should. Anyway, it is not your turn to be expelled. The remaining dishonest people should be eliminated, which will save the country." A lot of heart”
Jie Chi: "Master was indeed right. Senior brother has great wisdom."
Jingse's hands trembled involuntarily: If I hadn't made a mistake back then, I wouldn't have wanted to wear the cassock. I promised to travel through time and get the benefits of being granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister. Young ladies, I have no chance with you in this life. ~!
Jie Chi, who had no idea about the situation, still admired his senior brother's wisdom from the bottom of his heart.
