Dugu Xiang was also strange. She had always been quite hostile to Ye Qingyao. She became jealous when she saw her and Jiang Shuo together. However, she was very attracted to Li Zhuer, a cold beauty. When she saw Li Zhuer leave, she was a little reluctant to leave. .
Jiang Shuo also had complicated feelings towards Li Zhuer. He really couldn't tell when she was real and when she was fake. Watching her lips move, he finally didn't even say goodbye.
At this moment, apart from the three sects of the Central Plains, only the Manichaean sect remains on Douji Peak.
Manichaeism had a bad reputation in the Tang Dynasty, but it was also ruined by Feihongzi and Yihai Apo. Moreover, Azhan and Seji were from Persia and rarely spoke Chinese. Therefore, no religion wanted to interact with them. After a while, all the other religions went down to the peak, leaving them alone on the peak.
There were quite a few Manichaeans on the Douji Peak, but except for Er Mucha and the personal guards they brought from Persia, everyone else was held captive by disciples of the Kongtong Three Sects with swords. The atmosphere on the peak was very awkward for a while.
Ruixi bowed to everyone and said, "Because of Yihai Apo's rebellious behavior, you all have a lot of misunderstandings about Manichaeism. In fact, Manichaeism was founded five hundred years ago and has been widely spread in the Western Regions. It is all about persuading people." To be good, believers should uphold the five pure precepts of good deeds, refrain from killing or harming living beings, refrain from eating alcohol or meat, live in poverty and enjoy the Taoism, change clothes every year, and receive food every day, this is really not a cult."
Sima Qingyun said: "The teachings of Manichaeism are certainly good, but what they actually do is killing people. I'm afraid we can't just blame Feihongzi Homushi and Damu Jiayihai Abo, right? "
Ruixi said: "The believers accepted by Yihai Apo are not in line with Manichaean teachings. This can be seen by respecting An Lushan as a god and holding a cruel and murderous person like Cui Qianyou in an important position. Now the chief culprit is being executed by Zheng Benqingyuan. opportunity."
Zhuge Jingxu said: "However, at this moment, the Manichaeism is leaderless, and there are no less than ten million people in the Wutang tribe. The bandits are gathering in the Central Plains. I'm afraid it will only become more chaotic."
Manichaeism is divided into five halls: "Purity, Wonderful Wind, Mingli, Wonderful Water, and Wonderful Fire". Ruixi is just the master of the Mingli Hall among them, and is called Moxi De in Manichaeism.
A Zhan saw Ruixi talking to Sima and Zhuge. He didn't know what they were talking about, so he couldn't help asking. Before Ruixi could speak, Ye Hu started to interpret. It turned out that he also knew Persian.
A Zhan was startled at first, and then nodded in approval to Ye Hu. After hearing what he said, he looked happy and laughed loudly. After hearing this, Ruixi was shocked and fell to the ground, as if he was begging for mercy. .
Jiang Shuo pressed the hilt of his sword and said, "What did Persian Mu Zha say? Does his intention go against Elder Ruixi?"
Although he and Ruixi have known each other for a short time, he knows that Ruixi is a gentleman. Not only does he have a simple life, but most of the believers in Mingli Hall are real poor people who help each other and are indeed practicing what Ruixi said. According to Manichaean teachings, if Persia's second Muja wanted to embarrass Rui Xi regardless of the facts, Jiang Shuo would definitely take action to stop him.
But Ye Hu said to Jiang Shuo: "Brother Su, you have misunderstood. Azhan Damujia said that the concerns of the two saints Sima and Zhuge were not difficult to solve. He appointed Ruixi as the new Dongfang Damujia. From now on, he will preach in the Central Plains. All matters are decided by Ruixi Damuja."
Only then did everyone realize that Ruixi was not asking for mercy, but saying goodbye.
Cheng Qianli said: "This is a good thing. How can Elder Ruixi refuse?"
Dugu Wen also said: "If Elder Ruixi is in charge of Manichaeism, maybe he can really put the Demonic Sect on the right path."
Although Sima Qingyun, Zhuge Jingxu and others did not know Rui Xi, after hearing his words and deeds today, they knew that he was not on the same side as Fei Hongzi and A Po. Manichaeism cannot be left alone, and it is always better for him to be Damucha than the sinister one. Otohai Awa felt much better, and they all tried to persuade him to accept it.
Manichaeism has a total of twelve Mujas. According to the teachings of Shangying, the twelve permanent Baoguang Kings around Mingzun include six Dharma protector Mujas and six missionary Mujas. Sergi ranks sixth among the Dharma protector Mujas. , Ajanze ranked second, and his status could be said to be respected, and he was indeed able to appoint the Eastern Dharma Master.
Seji also tried to persuade Ruixi. Seeing that Jiang Shuo and others were curious, Ye Hu translated to them: "Seji Damujia told Elder Ruixi not to be too humble. Now they already know that they have been deceived by Abo all these years, and now they want to re- For the Zhendongfang Religion, the best candidate is Ruixi."
Ruixi finally agreed, prostrated himself on the ground, prayed and praised Ming Zun.
A Zhan and Seji each took out a Holy Fire Token, pressed it on Rui Xi's shoulders, and prayed together. A Zhan shouted loudly, and Ye Hu hurriedly said: "Everyone, get out of the way!"
As soon as everyone jumped away, they saw that the two Mujia each sprinkled a handful of white powder, but it was bright salt. The bright salt fell on the Holy Fire Order and immediately burst into blue flames. This was a Manichean ritual. The new teacher If a person does not burn when exposed to fire, it means he has the approval of the Ming Zun.
Of course, this is just a cover-up. When the bright salt meets the Holy Fire Order, it will ignite cold flames, and no one will be burned. If the law enforcers use another kind of powder, the real flames of hell will rise, and those who encounter it will be Li Burning is actually all under the control of those who enforce the law. There are countless things that can be done by Ming Zun Xian Sheng Yun Yun.
After a while, the cold flames dissipated and Ruixi stood up. Azhan nodded to Seji. Seji turned over the Holy Fire Token in his hand and handed it to Ruixi. Ruixi was shocked when he saw it.
It turns out that although there are twelve Holy Fire Orders, they are not one for each of the Twelve Mujas. After the Twelve Holy Fire Orders were cast, two of them were engraved with the second and third lines of the fundamental teachings of Manichaeism. The four are engraved with various precepts such as the Seven Benefits, the Ten Precepts, the Three Seals, and the Five Pure Precepts.
These six Holy Fire Tokens are enshrined in the main altar. Only the unengraved Holy Fire Tokens are used as protective instruments. Each of the six Dharma Protectors holds one. However, the Dharma Protector Muja does not grant the Holy Fire Token. I don’t know why. Today, Sergei will carry two Holy Fire Tokens, and he actually gives one to Rui Xi.
Azhan explained to Ruixi that through Ye Hu's interpretation, everyone knew that the land of Persia had been occupied by the cannibals as early as the Zhenguan period, but the white-clothed cannibals at that time were quite tolerant of the original religions in Persia. In recent years, there has been a rise in the "black-clad food" in Khorasan, the hometown of Persia. The black-clad food is from the Shia sect, which is not so tolerant of various religions.
Last year, on the orders of the black-robed Imam, Abu and Boshilim led a mob to revolt in Khorasan and expelled the white-robed governor. Abu Boshilim proclaimed himself the governor of Khorasan. It was the so-called "Governor Abu" whom Nao Wen bumped into, Jiang Shuo and the others.
Abu has massacred all non-Islamic sects. Manichaeism has been repeatedly attacked by black-clad eaters, and the main altar has been moved several times. Just a few months ago, the Manichaean main altar was defeated by black-clad eaters. , one of the six major guardian Mujas died and two were injured. Seeing that Manichaeism is becoming more and more difficult in Khorasan, the general altar has been planning to move elsewhere.
After Manichaeism was introduced during the reign of Empress Zetian, its missionary work in the Tang Dynasty did not go smoothly. During the Kaiyuan period, it was even designated as a heresy by Jin Sheng. Therefore, the main altar has never been very concerned about Eastern religious groups. Now the situation has changed. Forced, I looked east again. At this nine-sect conference, the Manichaean sect produced two major Dharma protectors, which shows that it attaches great importance to the Eastern religious groups.
Only then did Ruixi know that he had not only become the Great Eastern Muja, but also one of the six Dharma protectors. He was in charge of a Holy Fire Order. He suddenly felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier. He took the Holy Fire Order and looked at the black semi-transparent I don’t know what to say about the phantom of flying flames in the impermeable Holy Fire Order. Azhan smiled bitterly at him and said, maybe the main altar will be moved to the east in the near future, Ruixi Damucha really has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Of course, in front of people from the Central Plains, these words cannot be said too clearly. When Ye Hu interpreted the last words, he also deliberately omitted many of them, but how could people like Sima Qingyun, Zhuge Jingxu, and Ge Ruliang fail to hear the words of Er Muchu? He couldn't help but frown at the hidden meaning behind his words.
If Manichaeism really moved into the Central Plains on a large scale, it would be a real headache. However, the Tang people were open-minded, tolerant and open-minded. It seemed that it was not in line with the style of the Tang Dynasty to prevent Manichaeism from spreading eastward.
After the teaching was completed, everyone congratulated Ruixi. The second muja from Persia nodded to the people of all religions in the Central Plains and left without caring about others. Ruixi could not ignore the Manichaeans who were being held by swords. He put them away. The Holy Fire Order bowed to everyone, and then said to Sima Qingyun: "Can the Three Saints of Kongtong raise your noble hand and release these Manichaean disciples?"
Sima Qingyun frowned and said: "Most of these people are Abo's subordinates, and many of them are disciples of the 'Western Shaolin' founded by Feihongzi. Ruixi Damujia, although you plead for them, they may not accept your mercy." .”
Ruixi said, "Most of the people who join Manichaeism are poor people, and they were deceived by these two people. Now that the culprits have been eliminated, we should teach them with correct faith and give them a chance to change their ways."
When the Manichaeans heard this, they all knelt down. Some said: "I am willing to follow Ruixi Damucha, strictly abide by Manichae's teachings, and never do unjust things again." Some said: "Sage Sima, spare your life!" "Sage Zhuge, spare your life!"
Many disciples of Western Shaolin are also disciples of Pingliang City at the foot of Kongtong Mountain. The Three Saints of Kongtong are based in Pingliang and must not massacre local people. It is better to reconcile.
Sima Qingyun hesitated for a moment and said: "It is not easy for us to comment on the internal teaching affairs of your sect. Qingyun only has two requests. One, Feihongzi has seized the Hunyuan Peak in Kongtong and it must be returned. There will be no more Western Shaolin in the world. The other is, I hope Damucha can fulfill his previous promise and strictly restrain his followers. If any believers do evil and rebellious things, I, a famous sect in the Central Plains, will not forgive them."
Ruixi crossed his hands and said: "What Taoist Master Sima said is reasonable. Please give Ruixi half a month to deal with it properly. Ruixi swears here that after half a month, we will burn down the temple and lead everyone to leave."
Sima Qingyun and Zhuge Jingxu looked at each other and said in unison: "I hope Damuji will not violate this oath."
The people of the three religions did not dare to let the Manichaeans go on Douji Peak. Instead, they escorted them down the mountain via iron cables and then handed them over to Rui Xi to take them away. Huaijin already knew Rui Xi's successor at the foot of the mountain. Dongfang Damuchan hurriedly came forward and knelt down, Ruixi helped him up.
Pei Luo, the bone strength, said to everyone: "After the things here are done, we won't stay any longer. We will continue heading north back to Shuomo."
This Uighur hero has actually been using Jiang Shuo. This time he helped to eradicate Feihongzi and Yihai Abo. It seemed that he was on the side of the Tang people, but it could not be said that it was also the interests of the Uighurs. If it was beneficial to him, I'm afraid there would be no consequences. He betrayed various religions in the Central Plains without hesitation, and Jiang Shuo respected and feared him.
Ye Hu and Yi Dijian had no choice but to bid farewell to Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang, and left with their grandfather.
Jiang Shuo turned to Ruixi and said, "Ruixi Damuchan, we had an appointment before..."
Ruixi hurriedly said: "In retrospect, of course our agreement has been fulfilled. I have just obtained the antidote for bright salt from Erda Mujia, and there is no need to work hard to prepare it. So I asked Huaijin to go back to various places in the Central Plains to distribute it and inform them. I am determined to change and seek forgiveness from all factions."
Jiang Shuo wondered: "But there is also a girl Qingyao who is seriously injured. If we don't rush to Lanzhou Jincheng earlier, I'm afraid..."
Some people died, but not completely...
