The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

"This is the Buddha's bones." Emperor Xianzong of Tang said lightly.

"Master Puxuan, I want to give this treasure to the Prince of Guiyi. What do you think?"

Master Puxuan clasped his hands together.

"On behalf of Prince Guiyi, I thank Your Majesty for his grace."

"I will definitely fulfill my mission and deliver the Buddha's bones to the hands of Prince Guiyi."

That's how it was decided.

The Tang army dispatched troops to Hexi to attack Tubo in support of the Anxi army. As for Master Puxuan, he took all the rewards and Buddha bones and, under the escort of some Tang troops, once again returned to the Western Regions via Huihu.

As for the Tumo envoys in Chang'an...

First fool

Buy time for the army to assemble.

In this way, the Tumo envoy was confused in Chang'an City.

Want to see the emperor?

I'm sorry, Your Majesty has to worship Buddha recently.

You know, worshiping Buddha is very important. Please wait a little longer.

that……

Your Majesty has caught a cold recently and has been unable to get out of bed. Let's discuss the alliance later.

When will the alliance take place?

what--

Things seem to have changed a bit.

Many ministers made death-defying appeals, saying that an alliance with Tumo must not be formed.

Although our Majesty is willing to form a brotherly alliance with the Tumo Empire.

But the ministers are all against it, so...

Please wait a little longer.

It was not until the Shen Ce Army and the armies of some local vassal states had assembled that the Tumo envoy suddenly realized what was going on.

not good!

be cheated!

But at this moment, it was too late for them to spread the news.

They could only watch helplessly as hundreds of thousands of Tang soldiers divided into several groups and marched towards Hexi.

The defenders of the Tumo Empire were caught off guard and suffered successive defeats, losing prefectures and counties one after another.

Tianzhu.

A certain state.

"Heavenly soldiers are coming!"

"The Black Lotus Buddha is here!" When the Tang Dynasty flag fluttered outside the city, the whole city was filled with excitement.

Whether it was the king, the common people, or the monks, they all knelt on the ground trembling with fear.

"Your Majesty, are we really not going to resist at all?"

The queen had a bitter face.

"Even if you want to surrender, can't you negotiate terms first?"

She was so heartbroken. All the gold, silver and treasures had been given away. How could she live a normal life in the future?

“…” The king glared at the queen fiercely as if she were an idiot.

"resistance?"

"What are you resisting?"

“That’s the living Buddha!”

"I've never seen any reference to the Black Lotus Buddha in any book." The queen was not convinced.

"and--"

Besides, they don’t really believe in Buddhism.

"Haha..." The king pointed imperceptibly at the flying lions and the fierce armored war elephants.

"See? Whether it's a lion or an elephant, they all bow down to him..."

“The birds in the sky are guiding him.”

"If this isn't the living Buddha, what else could it be?"

Of course, these are not important. What is important is the string of zombies behind Shu Yichao——

Those are all guys who want to resist!

Many of them are famous monks and kings, even Devabarona is among them.

Because they were enemies of the Tang army, their entire clan was wiped out, their land was divided up, and there was no possibility of them making a comeback.

Therefore, Shu Yichao must be the Buddha.

It can only be Buddha.

We are not cowards, we are respecting Buddha.

Anyone who dares to disrespect will die.

No Black Lotus Buddha?

Wouldn't it be enough to just let those monks make one up?

"Everyone surrendered?" Shu Yichao scratched his head.

"Forget it, let's just scrape the ground."

Next, we need to thoroughly clean up the ground.

After all, Shu Yichao now has a lot of expensive warrior figurines to raise.

He even spared no effort to take the gold foil on the Buddha statue.

"Your Majesty..." The queen was completely dumbfounded when she saw that even the magnificent Buddha statues had been shaved bare by the Tang army.

"You call this Buddha?"

"The queen is obsessed." Before the king could speak, a monk came to the defense of Shu Yichao.

"This is actually the Black Lotus Buddha telling us personally not to indulge in worldly enjoyment and to be content with poverty..."

He couldn't let the queen start making a scene.

The Black Lotus Buddha even shattered the Nalanda Temple, let alone small temples like theirs.

As a Buddhist center, Nalanda Monastery is still quite arrogant.

They wanted to stop Shu Yichao from using the temple as an ATM, and even sent out three thousand eminent monks to debate with him.

However, the Black Lotus Buddha's method of debate is a charge of war elephants—

The monks died in such a tragic way.

Doing so will undoubtedly greatly shake people's devotion to Buddhism...

Buddha can’t even protect his own temple?

Can he really save people from suffering?

Therefore, Shu Yichao must be the Black Lotus Buddha.

Mortals should not care about the fight between gods, and everyone should continue to believe in Buddhism.

And you see, many people with devout faith have already received blessings, right?

The Black Lotus Buddha has allocated land to them!

As for the debate in many places about whether to believe in the Golden Lotus or worship the Black Lotus...

As long as we close our eyes it is dark.

“These temples are incredibly wealthy.”

Shu Yichao took a look at his remaining money and sighed repeatedly.

"It is better to rob a temple than to scrap ten palaces."

"Some of the settings in this mod are so damn realistic..."

Religion has been a lucrative and money-making activity since ancient times.

I don’t know how many foolish men and women live frugally and can squeeze out money from their teeth.

But once they stepped into the temple, they burned incense, made donations, and spent huge sums of money without any regret.

Those glittering golden statues in the temples of India are the result of countless believers who have spent years grinding gold into thin gold foil and sticking it on the statues one by one.

This is the case with statues of gods, not to mention other ritual instruments, incense burners, and sacrificial vessels.

In a word, the temples in India are rich, very rich, extremely rich.

But now it all benefits the Black Lotus Buddha.

"Eh?"

"What happened in Beiting?"

Chapter 207 - Teammate Pressure

"What's wrong, jerk?"

Miya Zola asked as she got closer to Shu Yichao.

"What are you yelling about again?"

Now, seeing Shu Yichao staring at the air in a daze, talking to himself and making strange noises, it no longer felt strange at all.

"Huihu, these bastards."

Shu Yichao's eyes turned red.
