When Song Que heard that Song Xing wanted to take action against the Jing Nian Zen Sect, he did not say anything to stop him. He just said with some confusion: "There is one thing that I haven't figured out yet."
Song Xing said: "The Lord of the Valve is strange, why the Jing Nian Zen Sect has always followed Cihang Jingzhai and waved its flag, but why this time it went against the norm and took the initiative to attack Zuo Youxian, provoke Laojun Guan, and put the blame on the Lord of the Valve ?”
Song Duo nodded: "Yes, I have met Monk Lokong, the contemporary leader of the Jing Nian Zen Sect. Of course, the Four Elements are empty, but he is also a man without fame and fortune. In Buddhism, he can be called a virtuous eminent monk."
A sarcastic smile appeared on Song Xing's face: "A virtuous monk? Monks pay attention to transcendental practice. The monks' energy is mainly used in studying and practicing, studying the doctrines and teachings of Buddhist scriptures, and worshiping the Buddha devoutly. I can't see this from them. "
"The so-called practice of Buddhism in grand events and the search for the Lord of enlightenment in troubled times, in my opinion, is still a dispute between Buddha and devil. After all, it is just that sentence. If you do not follow the Lord of the country, it will be difficult to establish the Dharma, so why put yourself in it? In the place of the savior.”
As for the Demon Sect, although Song Xing doesn't like those people who do evil things nowadays, it doesn't mean that he has much favorable impression of the Buddhists in this world.
Cihang Jingzhai, the so-called holy land of martial arts, claims not to interfere in Jianghu and court affairs, but the problem is that it is their intervention that makes things more complicated.
The way these nuns who lead religious practice are very simple in intervening in world affairs is to use their beauty as bait to marry old men in the world to achieve their own goals. Bi Xiu's heart was with Shi Zhixuan, and Fan Qinghui was with Song Que.
Song Xing knew in his heart that when he unified the Demon Sect, even if he did not seek trouble from the Buddhist Sect, the Buddhist Sect would do everything possible to cause trouble for him.
Seeing that Song Xing had no good impressions of Cihang Jingzhai and Jing Nian Zen Sect, Song Que did not bother with the issue of Kong's moral character. Instead, he asked: "To deal with you this time, the Demon Sect has mobilized almost all its masters, but... I don’t see Shi Zhixuan, do you think he was the one who provoked the Jing Nian Zen Sect to take action?”
Song Xing did not answer Song Que's question, but instead asked him: "The clan leader knew Shi Zhixuan when he was young. What kind of person do you think he is?"
Although he had captured Shi Zhixuan's disciple Yang Xuyan before, to Shi Zhixuan, the value of this disciple's existence was just a chess piece for him to overthrow the Sui Dynasty. He didn't know much about his master, and he didn't even know him. An identity hidden for twenty years after disappearing.
Seeing Song Xing ask, Song Que pondered for a moment and said: "When he was young, Shi Zhixuan was good at painting and addicted to alcohol. It would be an exaggeration to call him a romantic and talented man, but he had a unique proud temperament, which was the unruly and unruly temperament flowing in his bones. , that one is never willing to be inferior to anyone, even if a person faces the whole world, he will not raise an eyebrow and be unruly."
Song Que has always been a very proud person, and the talents that can catch his eye are really limited, but now he uses the word pride to describe Shi Zhixuan, who has illuminated an era like him.
"When he was at his peak, he could even be like you, unifying the Demon Sect and completing the unfinished obsession of the Demon Sect's ancestors for hundreds of years."
A trace of confusion flashed in Song Que's eyes: "But no one expected that at the peak of his life, he would give up everything and disappear from the eyes of the world. Some people even thought that the evil king had died in Heyin Queen In the battle for the number one person in the Demon Sect.”
"Now it seems that not only is he not dead, he must have made a breakthrough in martial arts, and he has come out to stir up trouble again."
Because of the battle just now, the area where Song Xing was standing seemed to have been swept by a hurricane. There was no place for either person to sit down, so the two had to stand in the ruins and talk.
Song Xing said: "The news I got is that at the beginning of Emperor Yang's succession, this person used the pseudonym Pei Ju and served as an official. He managed the Western Regions for the Sui Dynasty and merged horizontal and vertical lines. In just a few years, he split the Turks into Eastern Turks. and Western Turks.”
This was the first time Song Que heard this secret, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes: "What, Pei Ju is actually the incarnation of Shi Zhixuan?"
After thinking about it, this man is one of the best in the world in terms of his talent, culture, skills and military skills, so it seems that it is not surprising that he has accomplished such amazing deeds.
"He also once transformed into a great Buddhist monk, secretly learned Buddhist teachings, and integrated the martial arts of Huajian Sect and Butian Pavilion. He is hiding behind the scenes to plan this matter. I think it may be him who instigated the Jing Nian Zen Sect."
Song Que said: "In this case, he is secretive and you are secretive, will it cause any constraints to you?"
Song Xing shook his head: "It doesn't matter, the situation has been established, and a few scabies are not worth mentioning. Since he wants to provoke Jing Nian Zen Sect and Lao Jun Guan to confront each other, then I will simply do what he wants."
...
The Jing Nian Zen Sect was founded by Tian Monk. It is initially estimated that it was established during the Eastern Han Dynasty, because the 10th year of Emperor Yongping of the Han Ming Dynasty was the year when Buddhism was introduced to China.
The founders of the Jing Nian Zen sect and the Ci Hang Jing Zhai sect, the Heavenly Monk and the Di Ni, are brothers and sisters of the same sect. They are destined but not identical. However, their ideas are very similar, that is, they are not limited to one religion or one sect.
They all take it as their mission to study the world's religious sects, hoping to find a way to understand life and death, and it is also a place to practice Buddhism.
In order to prevent his disciples from being distracted, he has been strictly forbidden to get involved in the world and politics, so that he can focus on the study of the way of heaven and man. However, after passing down to later generations, his original intention has changed.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Jing Nian Zen Sect was located in the southern suburbs of Luoyang. The buildings in the temple totaled more than hundreds of rooms, making it look like a small city. In the middle, there were seven main halls and a small copper hall that was three feet wide and one foot high.
Except for the Bronze Hall, all buildings are covered with three-color glazed tiles, and the color is as new as new. In front of the Bronze Hall, there is a platform square that is as wide as 100 feet, made of white stone and surrounded by white stone railings. In the center, a statue of Manjusri Bodhisattva riding a golden lion is enshrined. There are bronze statues of three generations of Buddhas including Medicine Master, Sakyamuni and Amitabha beside the niche.

The colorful sculptures and gold ornaments are quite impressive. In addition to the four stone steps at the entrance and exit, there are five hundred Arhats evenly distributed, all made of gold and copper, and each one has a lifelike expression.
But this once pure land has now been plunged into a sea of fire. Hundreds of monks carrying buckets of water were panicking to put out the fire. A group of monks gathered in front of the main hall, watching the two people in front of the hall with eager eyes.
"Master Song, why did you break into my Jing Nian Zen Sect for no reason?"
There are three old monks with white beards standing in the front. The one standing in the middle is Liao Kong, the contemporary leader of the Jing Nian Zen Sect. Because he practices closed-mouth Zen, the one who speaks is the old monk next to him, Liao Kong’s junior brother. The understanding monk.
Song Que looked at Kong and said, "Abbot Kong, why do you pretend to be ignorant? You killed Zuo Youxian and blamed my Song family. You should have expected the consequences you would face after being discovered."
Ming Ran frowned, with a puzzled look in his eyes: "What are you saying, Zuo Youxian, blaming the Song family? I have no idea what you are talking about."
Song Xing, who was beside Song Que, took a step forward with a look of disgust on his face. He looked at it clearly and said: "That's why I'm most annoyed by you monks, who are pursuing profit under the guise of saving the world, and wearing the guise of Buddhism." The cloak, the fact of being a politician, religion and righteousness are just gimmicks, hypocrisy is your true face."
Song Xing's harsh and vicious words made all the monks who were originally calm-faced change their expressions at the same time. Miao Ran even angrily shouted: "Who are you, how dare you slander our sect like this!"
"I'm too lazy to talk to you," Song Xing didn't say much to this group of monks. He was here to cause trouble today. "Hand over the mastermind behind the scenes, otherwise the Jing Nian Zen Sect will become history today!"
After the words fell, Song Xing raised his hand to press. Although there was no overwhelming force, it caused the expressions of Kong and others to change drastically. They felt that the air in front of them was stagnant and their breathing began to become unsmooth.
