Rebirth: Taking Away the 10 Billion-Dollar Assets of His Bad Dad
Chapter 219 Zhang Xiaoyao's Trouble
Nangong Yan nodded and said:
"Yes. Humans are the weakest right now, and the most easily influenced."
Yang Qing rubbed his chin:
"In that case, then I can't touch the Immortal Realm? At least I can't break off relations with the Immortal Realm right now!"
Nangong Yan sighed:
"That's right. If you break off relations with the Immortal Realm now, you will most likely have to face both the Immortal Realm and Western Buddhism at the same time. Furthermore, your mere presence poses a threat to both the East and the West."
Yang Qing was in a dilemma. He had read Journey to the West. The fairy world was divided into Taoism and Buddhism. Taoism was the main religion in Daxia, while Buddhism was the main religion in the West.
In the beginning, Buddhism, in an effort to gain entry into Daxia, aggressively suppressed the Human Emperor, discrediting him and attempting to eliminate him. However, realizing this lack of success, they deliberately sent a wicked monkey to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace. The entire Celestial Realm was helpless against this monkey, and it was only after the intervention of the Tathagata Buddha of the Great Leiyin Temple in the Western Heaven that the monkey was temporarily suppressed, thus securing Buddhism's entry.
After Tathagata subdued the monkey, he returned to Lingshan and passed away.
Later, Buddhism discovered that the people of Daxia did not believe in Buddhism at all. Instead, they preferred to believe in demons, ghosts, land gods, mountain gods, and yellow-skinned fox spirits.
Buddhism was speechless, but was unwilling to let go of the opportunity to gain incense at the cost of Tathagata's life, so it sent Tathagata's disciple Jin Chanzi, who transformed himself into a little monk and lurked in the temple for more than ten years. During this period, he also helped others and exchanged a bundle of firewood for a fisherman's fish, and then released it.
Relying on this little bit of accumulation, he has created an image of a living Bodhisattva in the eyes of the world.
This character eventually reached the ears of the then king Li Daming. Driven by curiosity, Li Daming went to the temple in person to find out.
On the night before his departure, Buddhism entered Li Daming's dream through the god of sleep, suggesting that this monk was related to the destiny of the Tang Dynasty. As long as this monk gave a lecture, the Tang Dynasty would surely prosper.
As expected, Li Daming and the little monk hit it off at first sight and became brothers on the spot.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva appeared at the right time and announced the truth about the country's destiny, which was that Mahayana Buddhism must be taught. However, at that time, there was only Hinayana Buddhism in Daxia, and Mahayana Buddhism was only available in the Lingshan Great Leiyin Temple in Curry Country.
Li Daming was bewitched by him and believed his words. He sent his monk brother to the West to obtain the scriptures without hesitation and gave him the name Tang Sanzang! This is how the Journey to the West came about!
To change the Daxia people's belief in mountain spirits and monsters, Buddhism assigned Tang Sanzang three traitors from Heaven to serve as his disciples. Among them were the mischievous monkey, the greedy and lustful pig, and the conformist river monster. Along Tang Sanzang's journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures, they spread rumors that eating Tang Sanzang's flesh would grant him immortality. This lured the mountain spirits and monsters into chasing Tang Sanzang, making the people believe that the mountain spirits and monsters were evil beings who were hindering the country's destiny and committing numerous evil deeds.
Soon, the mountain spirits and monsters were beaten to the point where there were few left. So, in order to discredit Taoism, Buddhism asked Taoism to send its own mounts to the mortal world to pretend to be mountain spirits and monsters to hunt down Tang Monk. These mounts were actually transformed from spirits and monsters, and their strength was stronger than Tang Monk's disciples. The team encountered obstacles at every turn, and Tang Monk even encountered life-and-death crises many times. In the end, Buddhism came to the rescue.
This arrangement is intended to dilute the image of Taoism in the minds of the world and strengthen the impression that Buddhism saves people from suffering.
As a result, Tang Monk went through many hardships to retrieve the true scriptures, and people naturally flocked to him. Buddhism thus took root in the land of Daxia, and Buddhism also took away most of the incense from Taoism.
Buddhism has gone to great lengths to enter Daxia. Now that the Human Emperor has reappeared, how could Buddhism be willing to hand over the incense to the human race?
Nangong Yan analyzed it briefly, and Yang Qing frowned instantly:
"Then I can't hide!"
Nangong Yan nodded:
"The best way now is to join forces with one party and defeat the other!"
Yang Qing smiled:
"How could it be so easy? Just look at the Journey to the West. Although there was discord between the East and the West, on the surface they were still harmonious. It was clearly a two-on-one situation."
Yang Qing sighed helplessly.
Suddenly, a black mist appeared in the study:
"Who said you are alone?"
Yang Qing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the strange black fog, feeling a sense of disbelief in his heart.
Wu Ming's figure slowly walked out of the fog, with a faint demonic aura surrounding him and a playful smile on his lips.
His eyes are deep, as if he can see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts.
Wu Ming smiled gently, walked to the desk, picked up a book and started reading it. His movements were elegant and leisurely, as if he was the owner of this study.
"Yes, although my demon race has long lived in the dark, its strength should not be underestimated. Wouldn't it be a pleasure to join forces with the human race to fight against the aloof immortal world and the hypocritical Buddhism?"
His words carried an alluring charm that drew people involuntarily.
Yang Qing laughed out loud:
"That's right! Humans will never be slaves!"
Yang Qing's eyes were determined as he stood side by side with Wu Ming in front of the study window. The night was as dark as ink, dotted with stars.
The two of them whispered to each other, planning a countermeasure against the fairy world.
Yang Qing tapped the window frame with his fingers, and after thinking for a moment, he said:
"The Immortal Realm has a profound foundation and requires wisdom to conquer."
Wu Ming raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a cunning glint flashed in his eyes as the devilish energy swirled around him:
"What are you afraid of? If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth. At worst, you and I will imitate the monkey and attack the heaven!
I will go back and gather the powerful demons outside to help you!"
After saying that, Wu Ming turned around and hid in the black fog again.
When Yang Qing and Nangong Yan walked out of the study, it was already dusk. After dinner, Nangong Yan said goodbye and left. She also had to go back to prepare something.
Yang Qing sent Nangong Yan out the door and glanced towards the direction of the imperial capital. The matters above could be dealt with later, but the affairs of the human race could not wait!
In the early morning, the king sat in the main hall, with all the civil and military officials kneeling below. During the morning court session, the national teacher once again mentioned Yang Qing's incident at Longhu Mountain:
"I am the Imperial Master, and I have devoted my life to defending Great Xia against foreign enemies. However, my Longhu Mountain was attacked by evil people, and my son Daoran's cultivation was completely destroyed!
If the Lord doesn't deal with these evil thieves, I will resign as the Imperial Master!"
Elder Qiao bowed and said:
"Report to the Lord! This is not what the Imperial Master said. We discovered the entrance to the Demon Tribe. Mr. Yang voluntarily entered the Demon Realm to investigate, despite the danger. Zhang Daoran volunteered to go with him, but he brutally killed Mr. Yang in the Demon Realm, intending to make him his mortal enemy!
After Mr. Yang escaped from the predicament, he finally found Zhang Daoran to blame! Everything has its own cause and effect, and this is simply Zhang Daoran's own fault!
I believe that although Mr. Yang's behavior is inappropriate, the world of cultivation is a place where the strong prey on the weak and the strong take advantage of the weak. We must not interfere in this matter!"
The king had a serious look on his face and he didn't want to get involved in this matter. However, Zhang Xiaoyao was the national teacher of Da Xia, and he wanted to resign from the position as soon as he opened his mouth. If he really walked away, the fortune of Da Xia would definitely be damaged!
Just as he was in a dilemma, a voice came from the void:
"Gratitude is not gratitude, resentment is not resentment! It's fate, there is cause and effect!"
