Did a man become a god, or did a god become a man, or was that strange white-faced warrior the future image of the noble Taoist priest in soap clothes in front of him?
Xu Hongru saw this situation for the first time, and he could understand why everyone in Lishanhe paid special attention to Ji Xiang.
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Ji Xiang was only in the sixth level of supernatural power, and when he entered the Eastern Mahayana Temple, he actually entered two Eastern Mahayana temples. Ji Xiang was in the Yang Temple, and the two guys entered the Yin Temple.
The East Mahayana Temple is a temple with two sides in one body, a yin and yang temple. The Yin Temple is like the shadow of the Yang Temple. People with strong Yin Qi will enter the Yin Temple, and people with strong Yang Qi will come to the Yang Temple.
The Yin Temple is the nest of the disciples of the Nine Lotus Fox Demon. It is located in the earth realm. The so-called earth realm is a small world created by the earth gods and monsters. It has a limited scope and is closely connected with the Yang world. The method is also very simple. Cut off part of the space of the Yang world and hide it, and this kind of realm is formed.
In terms of behavior, it's almost the same as being cute in an enclosure...
It is easy to be exposed if there is no magic circle to cover it up, so it is also called a "secret place" in the practice world, which is actually equivalent to a small secret realm or secret base.
Ji Xiang looked at the bronze mirror. What was reflected in it was his white-faced Zhenwu Xingshen. He couldn't help but squint his eyes. This bronze mirror was indeed a treasure, but he didn't see the future...
"Fellow Taoist, the actual use of your thing is inconsistent with the propaganda. How can a monk lie?"
Xu Hongru was startled: "This... I don't know... I have a good look. Maybe there is something wrong with the mirror."
He took the mirror, put it in his hand and rubbed it, but what he was thinking about was that this Ji Xiang was indeed a bit mysterious. No wonder the people in the mountains and rivers paid so much attention to him. He was so profound that he didn't notice it. Even the condition of the two sides of the Yin and Yang Temple was different. I can't figure it out, but if it's abnormal, Ji Xiang also gave Xu Hongru a feeling that he was not easy to deal with.
I always feel like the person in front of me is here to cause trouble.
But this is the first time for everyone to meet, so there is no need to look at each other and cause trouble, right?
"How's it going, fellow Taoist, is there something wrong with the mirror?"
Ji Xiang asked, how did Xu Hongru know what was wrong? This mirror was also a magic weapon he picked up. Now that his magic power is low, it is difficult for him to develop all the wonderful functions of this Tang treasure mirror. It can reflect people's past and present lives, and transform the king's power and wealth. This is what he has done. The limit of what can be done.
The Eastern Mahayana Sect is a sub-sect of the Wenxiang Sect. Xu Hongru relied on this bronze mirror and a few heretical techniques to exorcise gods and summon ghosts, and cut paper into weapons. It was precisely because of this bronze mirror that he Only then could he step by step from a little person to his current position as the leader of the Eastern Mahayana Sect, with a great reputation in various folk teachings and the White Lotus Way.
"I don't know... Maybe Brother Tao will always serve Zhenwu in the future, so he has a white-faced divine form. This means that Brother Tao will achieve success... If this is the case, it would be gratifying... ..”
"I only hope that Taoist brother will practice diligently, be successful in practice in the future, promote magic, and save all sentient beings..."
Xu Hongru's words were very sincere. Ji Xiang could not find the problem for a while, and he had no reason to destroy the temple.
As for Little Fox and Feng Shusheng, they suddenly disappeared. Ji Xiang was sure that it was a problem with the temple and not because of the crowds.
The person in front of me suddenly came forward to talk to him. The root cause of all these problems might be their behavior.
Ji Xiang immediately thought of the people in the mountains and rivers. If he left Shuntian all the way, he might be like Tang Monk and have to go through the eighty-one hardships.
But this is just speculation, and there is still no actual evidence.
"Fellow Taoist, can you let me see the scriptures and classics of your sect? To be honest, I am from the Shuntian Mansion, and the current Holy Master has personally appointed me as the Grandmaster of the Taoist sect. As for my rank, I am not boasting about it, but it is indeed very high."
"If the Taoist teachings are correct and helpful to the king and the people, the poor Taoist should submit the scriptures to the court. Even if it is a folk teaching, it can become one of the orthodox teachings of our Taoist sect like the Lushan Sect."
"Don't you see that Patriarch Jingyang cut off the dragons to control the floods, erected nine large bronze pillars, and granted the title of divine power to the True Lord?"
The Lushan Sect was not a Taoist sect at first, but a shamanism, but later it became a lineage of the Taoist sect, and it is known as "the most domineering magician in the world"!
Of course he is overbearing. If he disagrees with you, he will stick a knife in his head. Then he will carry a mountain of knives, step on the sea of fire, and carry a firearm to fire at you. The spell has almost no defensive properties. The principle is that attack is defense. Who can resist this? You have to live there.
Ji Xiang had no way to formulate words directly, so he could only find a way to read the other party's scriptures and teachings. When Xu Hongru heard this, he was actually a little tempted. He learned Ji Xiang's identity from the people in Lishanhe, and understood that as long as he got into Ji Xiang's relationship, even if he betrayed King Lu, he would not have nowhere to go, and he could even change his identity. Become a legitimate Taoist dharma lineage.
And he was also stalling for time. The two people had not been sent to the casino yet, so he took out the scriptures. Ji Xiang felt a little familiar as soon as he picked up the scriptures.
This feel...isn't this the feel of the batch of paper charms from Shuntian Hanjing Factory?
"Where did the paper come from when you printed the scriptures? I just wanted to ask."
Xu Hongru was shocked. Of course he said it was printed locally and it was impossible to say that it was bought from the Shuntian Han Jing Factory. Anyway, the people at the Han Jing Factory would print anything as long as they were paid.
Ji Xiang hummed twice and read the scripture again. The Imperial Golden Pill Nine Lotus Zhengxin Conversion True Return Home Treasure Scroll.
The name is quite long. Ji Xiang read through the whole book and found that there are indeed methods of practice, but some of them did not reach the key points. This book does not have the existence of wishes, it is a simple printed matter.
"Throughout the three tribulations of the three religions, the formless kalpa, the solemn kalpa, and the constellation kalpa, this world is experiencing catastrophic changes...the end of the world...Belief in this religion can lead to liberation, but the method of liberation is It is Qigong guidance and a type of inner alchemy. This is the true skill..."
Ji Xiang frowned. This was indeed in line with some of the teachings, but it still had the shadow of the White Lotus Sect.
Because normal folk teachings attach importance to the Dharma but not the Sutras, and focus on practicality, the Dharma teachings are generally passed down from master to disciple without mass gathering of incense. Anyone who does this must have elements of the White Lotus Sect.
This kind of scripture is full of catastrophe from the beginning. The taste of White Lotus Sect is so strong that it almost overflows.
Seeing Ji Xiang's brows furrow, Xu Hongru knew that it was the words about disaster belief in the scriptures that made him unhappy, but he still had some thoughts, so he explained:
"Most of the so-called catastrophes are illusions, but they are all for the purpose of saving the world! People are born to be miserable. If we don't fabricate illusory catastrophes and let them believe that their suffering comes from tribulations, not from life, then They will have the motivation to continue to survive... For the court, isn't it a good thing that the people's hearts and minds are stable?"
"Some people are born humble. Even if they raise their heads and ask the sky several times, how can the sky respond to mortal inquiries? All people are like strong grass. No matter how strong the wind blows, they still survive tenaciously..."
By this time, the two of them had reached a remote place, avoiding some of the pilgrims.
As soon as Ji Xiang heard this argument, he laughed twice, combined the scriptures, and threw them to Xu Hongru.
"Have you ever heard of Ma Fei San?"
Xu Hongru said: "I know that it is the so-called Ma Fei Powder in Qing Nang Book, the medicine used by the miracle doctor Hua Tuo?"
Ji Xiang: "It is said in the Qingnang book that taking this medicine can make people anesthetized, making them unaware of people's affairs, and allowing others to split them without knowing the pain or itching!"
"Then do you know that there is any record in the Vinaya Miscellaneous Sutra brought by Master Xuanzang during the Tang Dynasty? Let me tell you, there is a strange flower native to Tianzhu. It is originally a medicinal material and can cure diarrhea. Diarrhea, but ancient Tianzhu people made it into pills, lit it on fire and inhaled its fragrance, which is addictive."
"In Vinaya's miscellaneous affairs, King Tianzhu suffered from a painful disease. In order to relieve his pain, the Buddha instructed him to smoke medicinal cigarettes. This medicinal cigarette is this kind of flower."
The name poppy actually existed in the Han Dynasty, but in order to prevent the White Lotus Sect from producing drugs, Ji Xiang used the name "weird flower" to refer to it and did not tell Xu Hongru the real name of the flower.
Moreover, the descriptions in the Buddhist scriptures translated by Master Xuanzang are very clear, and there are even instructions on how to make them.
At the time of Buddha, he was a mortal at first and had no knowledge of medicine. However, the poison of opium poppy can indeed relieve people's pain. That was in BC. People of that era cannot be expected to have an overly advanced understanding of medicine. After all, Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and died. Well, how can you know what this medicine is for if you don't take it?
Xu Hongru already understood what Ji Xiang was going to say, and Ji Xiang also said to him:
"Belief in nothingness, do not rise to the heaven, have a lazy spirit and a lazy body, only know how to indulge in illusions and forget about yourself, look forward to the enjoyment of the next life and ignore the true destiny of this life. If this is not an evil technique, what is it? !”
"Fellow Taoists must stick to their true intentions and don't confuse the people's hearts with illusory calamities. You may seem to have relieved their pain and allowed them to find their spiritual sustenance, but in fact you have led them into another spiritual abyss. "
"Fellow Taoists, you must also remember that according to the Ming Law, anyone who creates prophecies, demonic books, demonic words, or prophecies that mislead the public will be beheaded."
Xu Hongru was not convinced, and even forgot to guide Ji Xiang for a moment. He also knew that Ji Xiang's words at this time were a warning, but he felt a surge of anger rising from his chest. Instead, his eyes widened, and he argued with Ji Xiang unconvinced:
"Fellow Taoist, what you said is wrong! Could it be that if we use scriptures to save the world, we are deceiving people with evil words! The government has already admitted it! If according to what fellow Taoist said, there is no righteous magic outside of the three mountains and the eight places of Buddhism. This is evil!"
"You yourself said that even the Buddha once instructed King Tianzhu to take medicated smoke just to relieve his pain! If my teachings are like medicated smoke, you are not belittling me, but praising me. Isn't this right? That I am doing exactly what Buddha did?"
"The king can use medicinal smoke to relieve the pain. Who should these living people pray to for relief? Doesn't this just mean that Pindao is doing the right thing!"
"Everyone in the world will be saved. In this era of poverty and hardship, what kind of things will they do if they don't have spiritual support!"
Of course, Xu Hongru himself also colluded with the government, Prince Lu, and Li Shanhe, but the bottom line in his heart retreated again and again. He always warned himself that he was doing this purely for the sake of all living beings and the people. To achieve great things, he must rely on help. external force.....
It’s just a curve to save people! As long as you stick to your heart and do the key points without causing problems, isn't that enough?
Xu Hongru knew even more that when it came to cleaning up other sects, Taoist sects were regarded as the ancestors, and when they drew their swords, they killed the ghosts of the Six Heavens. But Xu Hongru even thought, since you want to use Buddha's principles to warn the world, then I I will refute you with the principles of Buddha. Let’s see how you bring up some Taoist ancestors and talk about your crappy principles. Let’s see if the believers believe you or me.
You say that the people should not seek spiritual sustenance, and I say that you are not close to the people; you say that the people should not anesthetize themselves, but the people just do their own thing and do not worship your righteous gods.
Just to see your impatient look, to see you scratching your head and scratching your head, and finally walking away; if you are a bit graceful, you will probably laugh at yourself, raise the price, and then walk out of the door with your tail between your legs.
If you are really capable and can correct all the believers in this temple so that they no longer believe in your own teachings, then you are truly capable!
After hearing his argument, Ji Xiang laughed again:
"Only when there are people who do evil, can we know the outline of kindness; only when there are crazy people, can we distinguish sane people; only when there are nobles and nobles, can we know the high and low; only when there are things that harm others, can we know what is good and evil difference."
"Moreover, after the effect of the medicated cigarette ends, it will become addictive. If you can't get the medicated cigarette for a day, then the person will become crazy and act like a madman..."
Xu Hongru's heart thumped loudly!
Just hearing Ji Xiang's voice was like a wake-up call, "Hong Zhong Da Lu!"
"Can alleviating pain solve pain? Don't you know? There is another paragraph in the scripture. The general meaning is that the king asked the Buddha if he could relieve his illness by taking medicine and cigarettes, but the Buddha did not listen!"
"Ting Xu means listening and promising. Buddha did not make such a promise."
"Suffering comes from heretics, and diseases are caused by changes in Qi. But if you are too indulged in fantasy and ignore the real pain and illness, you deserve to die, and you deserve to die!"
"Lieh Tzu once said: There is life and form, but they are all illusions! You have been staring at illusory things, but you still want to see the real truth, or even realize your real wishes? Ridiculous!"
"Good deeds do not come from heaven, and bad consequences are man-made! If you want to see the wonderful things come true, you must first get rid of the evil ways!"
"Everyone has weaknesses and hardships, so they are taken advantage of by you. Even if I save one person and save ten people, maybe some of these people will come back to worship you. Under the factors of laziness and ignorance, there are people in this world. Incorrigible man!”
"But I came to the world not to debate doctrines with you. Of course, even if we debate, you are not my opponent. Your reasons are difficult to justify and can only be taken out of context. You are destined to be unable to win verbally, but you are among the people. There are huge believers and incense among them, because the people can only see the life in front of them, which is the most important to them."
"Do you dare to take the oath of heaven and say that you have always done your best to serve the people without asking for anything in return?"
Xu Hongru didn't answer, and didn't know how to answer. In this world, the oath of heaven really was made, and it would really come true. Of course, he couldn't have a clear conscience. It would be better to say that it was precisely because saving people and doing good deeds was profitable, so he I firmly believe that after the spread of Wenxiang Sect, I and others can live a good life. If I am profitable, how can others not be profitable?
So I don’t answer.
Ji Xiang also said: "So, your behavior is destined to fail. There is no need to cover it up anymore. I hope you can rein in your horse and don't wait until the divine sword comes. You will be thrown into the Fengdu Hell and will never be reincarnated."
Through the previous dialogue, Ji Xiang already knew the nature of the other party's doctrine, and Xu Hongru was also in a mess. When he received the summons, he saw the paper-cut figure emerging from the ground. Xu Hongru told Ji Xiang:
"The two companions of fellow Taoist... are now at the Milong Casino. As for the location and the method of entry..."
Xu Hongru told Ji Xiang how to enter the Milong Casino and began to guide him. Ji Xiang looked at him deeply and left the temple.
Xu Hongru looked at Ji Xiang's back, in a daze, as if he had lost some important spiritual support, but gradually his face became ferocious again:
"No matter what you say, it is doomed to fail, but I am determined to win for you. When the time comes, the whole world will worship the Wenxiang Sect, and all Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism will bow their heads and be intoxicated with it every day. I will make all the mountains and rivers in this world... Falling into the illusion of fragrance, focusing on the illusory world, practicing in a place of madness and rebellion, and being confused and chaotic and unable to extricate yourself!"
Ji Xiang left the temple, his heart growing cold, and secretly thought that if he hadn't found a handle, he would have demolished the temple on the spot, caught the Taoist in front of him and punched him to death.
"The government actually thinks this sect is orthodox? I should go to the government and ask!"
The fear of attacking evil deeds and destroying temples is that the government will also become the opponent's accomplice. This will be difficult to handle. The national prestige is shrouded in the government... Unfortunately, the national prestige can protect against physical demons and monsters, but it cannot protect against the greedy and corrupt people's hearts. Fallen.
Therefore, the government colludes with demons. Once this happens, it is very serious, and the government often becomes a refuge for demons.
Ji Xiang was going to the casino according to the location given by Xu Hongru. Unexpectedly, a huge evil wind suddenly blew up halfway. At this time, the sky became dim like midnight, and the blazing red and black air floated like a flame, trapping Ji Xiang. In a world.
There was also spirit in these demonic winds. Ji Xiang unexpectedly saw the local land god, who looked sallow and thin, with a dazed look on his face. At this time, more and more people came to him, and they were polite to Ji Xiang and said with a flattering smile:
"King Mi Long has invited Taoist Priest to meet you at the casino! Taoist Priest, this is a very happy event! The little god first congratulates Taoist Priest, may you make a fortune!"
Ji Xiang chuckled and stared:
"What kind of evil god do you, the earth god, dare to worship? I have never heard of the Mysterious Dragon King!"
When the Earth God saw Ji Xiang's sneer, he didn't look afraid. Instead, he looked like a scoundrel: "The Taoist priest is here for the first time. I don't know the power of the Mysterious Dragon King. If the Taoist priest is unwilling to follow me, I'm going to have to suffer a little."
Ji Xiang raised his eyebrows: "It's interesting. I'd like to see what the Mystical Dragon King is. How dare you, a little god like you, dare to be so tough when facing a Taoist priest! Then lead the way!"
"No need to lead the way!"
The land god retreated into the red and black demonic wind, and a giant demon cast his magic in the sky. The sky and the ground were instantly darkened, and a burst of blood-red wind swept Ji Xiang away. At this time, Ji Xiang stood in the blood-red wind, surrounded by a strong demonic aura. , but it also carries a lot of incense. The blood-red monster in the wind is more than ten feet tall, shaped like a bat, with a head like a donkey, wings like mats, and eyes as bright as fire.
The inner scene god card gives the answer:
Flying Yaksha: This cloud is strong and strong, flying in the sky; it can swim for four days without any hindrance!
Oral recitation of the "Leng Yan Sutra" "The lands of the ten directions are bright and pure; like glass, with the bright moon hanging inside.", all the magic power of Feitian Yaksha will be blocked for a moment, and he will not be able to fly to the sky and travel around the earth. If those who practice Buddhism recite this, there will be a certain chance Inspire the kind heart of Feitian Yaksha.
Reciting "Seeing retribution will attract bad consequences. If you see karma, when you are about to die, you will see fierce fire, filling the world in the ten directions, and the consciousness of the deceased will fly down and ride in the smoke, and enter the endless hell." This will trigger everything that Feitian Yaksha does. The bad karma turns into karmic fire and burns it!
This monster is most afraid of firearms!
The blood-red wind was swirling in chaos, and soon it arrived at the Milong Casino. At this time, the underworld appeared, and Ji Xiang saw the way.
It was clearly a scenery in the underworld, but the surroundings flickered and the world changed. It was as if there were two heavens and earth in the underworld. It turned out to be another "secret place"!
The giant demons brought Ji Xiang here without using force. They originally thought there would be a fierce battle. At this time, they were whispering and preparing to watch Ji Xiang's show. After all, the next thing was the focus.
As soon as Ji Xiang entered the Milong Casino, everyone here was gambling, and he saw Yan Yingcai at a glance!
The local Taoist official was so obsessed with gambling that he had horse tags all over his face. Ji Xiang walked over and scolded:
"Did you give the talisman I asked you to give?"
"What talisman! Don't disturb me, I just want to make money now!"
Yan Yingcai looked as if he had taken drugs, looking ferocious and crazy, even more so. He opened Ji Xiang's hand, and Ji Xiang grabbed his collar and cursed: "You are a Taoist official of the Taoist Association. Dare you gamble in the casino opened by this monster!"
"What kind of monster? How dare you talk to me? You were brought here too. You just went away without making money, and you asked me for a talisman. Let's talk about it after I finish gambling!"
Yan Yingcai was completely bewildered and his personality seemed to have changed.
The next moment, Ji Xiang let go, and then the gambling table was directly lifted by Ji Xiang with one hand!
"How dare you touch my cards!"
Yan Yingcai was immediately furious. He rushed towards him like a demon. Ji Xiang hit him in the face with a backhand punch, killing him instantly!
In an instant, his brain exploded, and his headless body was blasted out of the door with the force of a punch. The humans who were playing cards around him were shocked when they saw that Yan Yingcai, who had been gambling heavily before, was beaten to death by his own colleagues. Separate!
There were monsters and monsters around. I thought that Ji Xiang lifted the table to teach this human race a lesson. There was a smile on his face. It depends on the internal strife of the human race. After all, both of them are Taoist officials. Unexpectedly, Ji Xiang started to take action and directly killed his fellow Taoist. Kill him on the spot!
The attack was so ruthless and decisive that the demons suddenly stopped laughing.
Ji Xiang clenched his fist, which was dripping with blood. He looked around and saw several Taoists, all of whom looked pale at this time.
"According to what Tian Tiao said!"
"Wherever the Dharma masters go to practice the Dharma, the Yang will be punished by the Yin, and those who are tired of the Dharma..."
"Destroy yourself!"
