History’s Strongest Shopkeeper - Chapter 318
[318. Chapter 316 The Crisis of Buddhism]
Confucianism is the largest religion in Wanjie Tower. After Confucius, Xunzi and others acquired literary cultivation methods in the world of Journey to the West, Conquering Demons, Confucius’ identity as the leader of Confucianism was completely established.
Not only because Confucius is the founder of Confucianism, but also because Confucius has become the number one master of Confucianism.
“Headmaster, what should we do?”
In a spacious conference room of Wanjie Junior School, Xunzi frowned slightly, couldn’t help but slowly close the book in his hand, and looked up at Confucius, who had a calm expression.
Only those who have truly entered the world of Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons will know the importance of the cultivation environment.
A warrior in the world of “Journey to the West: Conquering Demons” may only need one year to reach the innate realm.
But in a martial arts world like Swordsman, it takes a lifetime, and in a world like Fengyun World, genius also takes about ten years.
After returning to the world of Fengyun, although the concentration of spiritual energy in the world of Fengyun is greater than that of the original world, it is still very different from the world of Journey to the West: Conquering Demons.
The speed of cultivation in the world of Fengyun in ten days is not as fast as one day in the world of Journey to the West: Conquering Demons.
If you haven’t experienced this huge gap, you may not feel it.
But only after you have truly felt it can you understand the pain.
“Shopkeeper, since the Xianxia World has not been opened, I have nothing to do. I have to wait for notification.”
Confucius looked at the various Confucian masters below who looked expectantly, and shook his head slightly.
“As long as you read more and cultivate your awe-inspiring spirit, your strength will naturally increase.”
Confucius took an encyclopedia in front of him in his hand and opened it gently. The world was really wonderful.
After Xunzi heard this, he took a deep breath and opened the book in his hand again, and the conference room fell into silence again.
Different from the quietness of the Confucian meeting, it can be said that the atmosphere in the Buddhist meeting room was gloomy and strange.
This atmosphere has continued since the end of Travel to All Worlds, and it has become even more profound.
“Should we continue to believe in Buddha?”
Under the auspices of the sweeping monk, the abbots of Shaolin Temple from different worlds looked solemn and their eyes were full of helplessness.
The great sun has come!
The shop owner slapped the golden body of the Great Sun Tathagata to pieces, and was suppressed under the seven-color mountain peak for five million years.
How can they believe in Buddha?
The great Sun Tathagata, who has great supernatural powers, turned out to be a bad debt in front of the shop owner, and the Mahayana Buddha even robbed the products of Wanjielou.
After returning from traveling to all realms, every disciple of Buddhism feels the contempt and deep ridicule from the people around him.
The Great Sun Tathagata you believe in is a big gangster, and the Buddha you revere is a robber.
From the sweeping monks to the ordinary disciples of Shaolin Temple, they all deeply felt the alienation from everyone in Wanjie Tower.
Even the aunt in the cafeteria ordered braised pig’s trotters for the sweeper and asked him if he wanted a roast duck.
Originally, the cafeteria of Wanjie Junior College specially prepared some vegetarian dishes because of the Buddhist monks.
Now, add some meat to every dish.
In their eyes, the monks have become flesh-eating worms.
The sweeping monk also discovered that the Shaolin Temple disciples he met recently had gained weight.
My roommate in the dormitory was originally a monk, so I didn’t usually study *********, but now it’s better, even the monks started to discuss *********, it’s time for us to make some changes. “
Master Fang Zheng, the abbot of the Shaolin Temple who is proud of the world, raised his brows in vain and looked a little depressed.
Now he only sees a rogue Buddha. If he sees a dark Buddha next time, their Shaolin Temple may really become a different person in the eyes of others. A demonic sect.
All the abbots of Shaolin Temple can’t help but envy the other sects in Wanjie Tower.
Even if another Laozi appears in the future, they will not recognize
the Wudang Sect as an independent sect .
Zhang Sanfeng believes that the Wudang Sect belongs to Taoism and is a relatively independent branch of Taoism.
Confucianism has Confucius, Mohism has Mozi, and military sects have Guiguzi…
Each sect has a unique leader, even if it appears in the future. The existence of evil will not have a great impact on them.
As for Buddhism, although the Buddhist teachings are profound and the martial arts are unfathomable, there are still some gaps as the leader of Buddhism.
As for Patriarch Bodhidharma, who claims to be Zen, he is unwilling to mix with Buddhism .
After just one incident, the prestige of their Buddhism in Wanjie Tower has plummeted.
All the disciples of Shaolin Temple are secretly glad that Wanjie Tower pays more attention to business and does not pay much attention to the distinction between good and
evil
. Later, other forces in the Wanjie Building may gather together to attack Buddhism.
“The Emperor of Qin has ordered that all temples in Daqin are not allowed to own land, are not allowed to cast golden statues of Buddha, and are even ordered not to believe in the Great Sun Tathagata. “Abbot Huicong of The Deer and the Cauldron had a bitter look on his face and deep helplessness in his voice.
If Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng hadn’t been worried about destroying the Shaolin Temple, he would have killed some customers who entered the Wanjie Building, causing resentment and panic among the customers of the Wanjie Building. , their Shaolin Temple may have been destroyed by the iron army of the Qin Dynasty.
Now the Shaolin Temple can only eat rice bran every day and live an ascetic life.
In less than ten days, less than 30% of the disciples of the Shaolin Temple are left .
, all others returned to secular life.
“The Emperor
of the Tang Dynasty also began to restrict Buddhism.” Zen Master Tianming from the Condor Heroes world frowned and his voice was hoarse. Their Shaolin Temple was not as wealthy as the Shaolin Temple from the Deer and Cauldron world.
The mountain had been closed for decades, and it had just begun to show some signs of prosperity. However, under the pressure of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin’s cavalry, he had no choice but to compromise.
“Although the Emperor of Han did not say it explicitly, I also feel the suppression of Shaolin Temple.” Master Kong Wen from the World of Heaven and Dragon Slayer said with a hint of joy in his heavy voice.
Among the three empires, Han finally entered the Ten Thousand Realms Tower and was the weakest.
The Shaolin Temple in “Eternal Dragon Slayer” entered the Ten Thousand Realms Tower very early, and the formation of the three Shaolin monks’ combined attack formation, the Vajra Buddha Demonic Circle, was already perfect.
As the strength of the three great divine monks, Duanhe, Duanjie, and Duannan, continues to increase, there is only one way to break through the demonic circle of Vajra Buddha, which is to break the force with force, otherwise you will only be trapped to death by the formation.
Among the powerful men in the Han Dynasty who could break through the demonic circle of Vajra Buddha, the only one who practiced the Human Emperor Code was Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
However, the possibility of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che personally breaking the formation was too small.
Therefore, the Han Dynasty only suppressed Shaolin Temple in secret.
It’s just that this kind of covert suppression will turn into forced suppression as the big man becomes stronger and stronger.
When other Shaolin temples heard this, they also had sad faces and desolate expressions. Who knew that Buddhism would fall to this level?
Because in other worlds, emperors of various countries also began to impose some restrictions on Shaolin Temple.
If any employee in the Wanjie Building revealed that the shop owner was dissatisfied with Buddhism, they could imagine that all the emperors would directly issue an order to exterminate Buddhism.
Under the encirclement and suppression of the major forces in the Wanjie Tower, for up to three days, I am afraid that there will never be a complete Shaolin Temple in the world connected by the Wanjie Tower.
The Qing Dynasty in the world of The Deer and the Cauldron was besieged by the Eight-Power Allied Forces, and the Eight Banners Army that dominated the world was completely wiped out. It still seems like yesterday.
During the Korean Ginseng Disaster, the kings of the Korean Kingdom in various time and space, under the strong pressure of the masters from the original world, could only obediently donate their treasured Korean ginseng.
In the Korean Ginseng Disaster, more than ten kings of Korea died tragically, and countless princes and ministers were looted, which is still vivid in our minds.
The tyrannical Mongols, under the iron cavalry, were majestic. However, under the threat of attacks from all realms, they retreated again and again, and could only stay in a corner.
·······
Their Buddhism will also face the same crisis.
“Why don’t we just practice Buddhism and not respect the Buddha.” In the dead silence, Abbot Huicong of The Deer and the Cauldron finally couldn’t help but speak first.
If we were to say which Shaolin Temple would be destroyed first, their probability would be 99%.
They faced the most domineering and powerful emperor, Qin Shihuang, and the Qin State only needed to send a thousand cavalry, and even the Shaolin Temple would not be able to escape the crisis of destruction.
The power gap between the two is too big.
Abbot Huicong’s words, just as he spoke, all the monks in the room fell into shock and confusion.
Failure to respect Buddha means that there is no need for the many Buddha statues in their temples to exist.
“Vote! Use the secret ballot method.” The sweeping monk said. As the nominal agent of Buddhism, if Buddhism is destroyed, he will definitely be the first person to be killed.
He also wanted to compete with Buddha.
