"Donor Lu, why should he be so aggressive? Could it be that he has forgotten that when a hidden dragon comes out of the abyss, does a strong dragon have any regrets?"
The monks looked at Lu Zhi sitting in front of them and couldn't help but look embarrassed. An old monk spoke up and mentioned the prophecy left by ancient Pei Yuan, hoping that Lu Zhi could retreat despite the difficulties.
"The prophecy left by my master may not be accurate. Moreover, if a dragon emerges from the abyss, it may not mean that the dragon has regrets, but it can also advance and retreat freely."
Zhao Peng stood behind Lu Yan. There was no need for Lu Yan to speak. He, the Qingtian Supervisor, would do it for him.
"Zhao Peng, are you standing with this monster, do you want to rebel?"
Seeing Zhao Peng and Lu Zhi standing together shocked many people. Even Mu Tiantong, who was sitting aside and listening, raised his head slightly, but seemed not surprised by the result and stretched out his finger on the table.
Move three inches laterally, and when you touch the tea cup on the side, pick up the tea cup and put it to your mouth.
"The saint allows everyone in the world to participate in the grand ceremony, so why can't I come? As for whether I am guilty or not, let the saint decide. Since you are not an official of the imperial court, you have no right to interfere with me."
"You!! You are trying to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors, and everyone will kill you if you get it!"
After an old monk said this, he looked at Mu Tiantong aside, only to find that Mu Tiantong was just drinking tea and didn't pay any attention to it.
Seeing this, the old monk's face suddenly turned bright and dark.
Buddhism has grown stronger over the years with the support of saints and warriors, but its influence in the court is too small, far less than that of Taoism, which is the state religion and also has a foundation in the court.
Although Mu Tiantong was ordered to listen, he was not on the Buddhist side.
After drinking a cup of tea, he raised his head and looked at Lu Zhi: "Now that Master Lu is here, he must be ready to sacrifice his life for righteousness."
"If you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening!"
Lu Zhi nodded with a smile, to which Mu Tiantong silently picked up the tea cup and said nothing.
As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.
The conversation between the two was so mysterious that outsiders could not understand it.
On the towering heaven behind the Ming Hall, Wanrong in a gorgeous dress watched the fight condescendingly. Hearing this from a distance, she couldn't help but sigh. When the maid on the side saw this, she couldn't help but ask: "Why is Zhaorong sighing?"
"Wen Dao Xi is going to die in the morning, Lu Zhi has no intention of going back alive. What he wants is the luck of Buddhism. Who can stop such a person who is determined to die?"
"Send the order and ask Shenwu Mansion to please come out of the town. If necessary, give this leader a ride."
After saying that, she took out a piece of jade from her waist and put it in the hand of the maid. The maid took the piece of jade with both hands, not daring to be careless. She knew that this object was one of the Nine-Yam Astrolabe, one of the three major treasures of the imperial court.
.
As for the other eight sides, they were in the hands of the other eight commanders of the Shenwu Guards. After the maid stepped back and sent the message, the Wanrong girl looked towards the direction of the Drum Tower in the distance to the east, but for a moment she didn't know what she was thinking about.
.
At this time, the atmosphere in front of the Mingtang was tense to the extreme.
Several old Buddhist monks broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads, chanting Buddhist sutras silently in their hearts, praying for the Buddha to appear so that Yuan Si could break out of the predicament as soon as possible and come to support.
"Why is the first seat in the Buddhist grand ceremony vacant? It could be because there is no one in the Buddhist sect. If so, our national master is also proficient in Buddhism. I think it is better to let our national master take the first seat."
As soon as Ashina said this, the expressions of all the Buddhist monks suddenly changed.
Several elderly monks were so angry that their lips trembled, but they didn't know whether they were angry at Ashina's words or because their own Buddhist sect was full of rats. At the critical moment, no one could shoulder the responsibility alone.
Mu Tiantong frowned, put down the tea cup in his hand, and was about to speak.
"Who said there is no one! I'm here!"
Suddenly, a long roar interrupted Mu Tiantong's thoughts, and attracted everyone's attention. Everyone followed the sound, and all the Buddhist monks in the hall stepped out of the way, revealing a young and handsome monk.
“Who is this person??”
A group of Buddhist disciples couldn't help but whisper when they saw the person coming. They didn't know where this person came from, and they looked very strange.
Even the old monks sitting on the seats were like this. They faced each other, but no one recognized them.
On the contrary, those who were not from the Buddhist sect recognized the person at a glance.
"It's him!!"
Mu Tiantong picked up the tea cup that he had just put down, put it to his mouth and took a sip. His gauze-covered eyes looked back and forth at Xu Tong, and the more he looked at it, the weirder he felt.
"It turns out to be the prince. I didn't see him last night. I didn't expect that the prince has already become a monk. Is he really going to escape into Buddhism?"
Ashina stood up with a bright smile on his face. He already had murderous intentions in his heart. The one he was most worried about was Xu Tong.
One of the two teammates quit the script and the other died. This result deeply surprised Ashina and made him even more afraid of Xu Tong. He did not want him to participate in the Xuantan Dharma Assembly in case he was activated by this kid.
task, all the efforts will be wasted by then.
After Ashina said that, he walked forward and stopped in front of Xu Tong.
"Step aside!"
Xu Tong glanced at Ashina and said expressionlessly.
"What if I don't let you!"
Ashina's eyes became increasingly murderous, but Xu Tong suddenly raised his palm and punched Ashina.
“Well done!!”
Ashina's eyes were filled with joy when she saw this, and the muscles on her body suddenly bulged, and her skin seemed to be completely metalized, reflecting a metallic texture.
In terms of defense, I may not be as good as this kid, but in terms of strength, I have an absolutely overwhelming advantage.
However, the next second, the joy in Ashina's eyes was replaced by horror.
I saw Xu Tong's fist flashing with brilliant golden light, the Buddhist Vajra Seal, but the difference was that when the Vajra Seal was activated by Xu Tong, the Vajra Dharma appeared behind him.
The King Kong's whole body was brilliant and dazzling, but it had the appearance of an ordinary evil ghost, with three heads and six arms, and a magic eye on its forehead. As Xu Tong punched, the King Kong followed him like a shadow, raised the demonic pestle in his hand, and smashed it down on Ashina's head.
"Zheng!!"
There was a sound similar to the collision of swords, and Ashina's body flew upside down like a kite with its string broken.
"Great God Vajra!"
All the monks stood up from their chairs and stared at Xu Tong in front of them in stunned silence.
Those who were shocked were speechless. Buddhism has the theory of dharma body, sambhogakaya and response body.
The Dharma is invisible and is also called the Dharmakaya Buddha. Only when one has reached a certain level of the realm of the Dharma can he display his magical powers.
Just like the great protector Yuan Xiang, who has a five-foot golden body, he is enough to overwhelm the heroes.
The powerful Vajra behind the Crown Prince is also the Dharmakaya. At the beginning of the Diamond Sutra, there are eight Vajras. No one will admit this.
But...why is it the Vajra Dharma??
A group of monks were puzzled that although the Dharma was invisible, it still had high and low levels.
As long as you study Buddhism to a certain extent, the Dharma will be your own understanding of Buddhism and correspond to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
The Diamond Sutra is an entry-level scripture, and few people can study it to such an extent. It is like studying a pistol, but it is not as powerful as a Gatling.
Facing the horrified eyes of everyone, Xu Tong wiped the blood from his fists with his cassock expressionlessly, and looked at Ashina who fell to the ground with contempt: "If you don't get out of the way, I will beat you until you get out of the way!"
Ashina has never suffered such humiliation. Although he is a player, the world of his script is not a house. He has walked all the way, with a golden sword and an iron horse. He dare not call him a hero, but he can still be called a hero. When he heard this, his eyes filled with anger.
Pentium jumped up from the ground and planned to fight Xu Tong desperately.
But just as he was about to take action, a palm landed lightly on Ashina's shoulder. The seemingly weightless hand made Ashina unable to move.
He looked up and found that the person who took action was Lu Zhi.
"Don't do it, you are no match for him."
Lu Zhi squinted at Xu Tong. Although he didn't know why this boy's strength improved so quickly, since he could summon the magical power of Dharma, he had reached the Taoist realm, but...
Lu Zhi felt strange in this place. This kid only had one Taoist fruit, and he was still far away from reaching the Taoist realm. In terms of realm, he was not as good as Zhao Peng!
Although he felt strange in his heart, Lu Zhi was not in a hurry and pulled Ashina to sit down again. Before he could do anything, he didn't believe how long this kid could hold on.
"As Taichang Shaoqing, I have come here with orders to salute on behalf of Heaven. I am sitting at the top of the table. Do you have any objections?"
Although he is wearing a cassock, his official authority is not diminished at all.
The words were like thunder and lightning, which made all the monks present perk up. They looked at the young monk and felt as if they had a stronghold in their hearts.
"Amitabha, your son was born with the body of a Buddha, and received the inheritance of the Great Protector. He performed homage on behalf of heaven according to the holy edict. He should be honored as the first one. We have absolutely no objection."
Several old monks finally came to their senses this time and recognized Xu Tong. Even if they didn't recognize him, they knew the name of the crown prince Li Zheng.
After all, Xu Tong's three poems were widely circulated and had a profound influence.
Xu Tong shook his cassock, held a tin staff, and sat straight on the head seat.
But as soon as he sat down, he heard a faint laugh: "The way of heaven has been damaged and there is more to make up for. If the prince tries to improve his cultivation like this, I'm afraid his life will be at risk!"
Xu Tong followed the sound and saw an old man sitting on the table next to him, his eyes covered with a ribbon, holding a teacup and slowly drinking tea one mouthful at a time.
This man was wearing a Taoist robe, and although his eyes were blindfolded, he was not blind. Thinking of Wu Fan's words just now, Xu Tong combined with Li Zheng's memory to learn the identity of this man, one of the best in the world, Tiantong Taoist, Mu Tiantong.
It is said that this man was born with magical eyes. No wonder he could tell at a glance that he had taken drugs.
"Just now, didn't Master Lu say that I can die if I hear Dao in the morning? If he can die, I can die too. If I'm afraid of death, I won't come!"
Xu Tong didn't have the ability to transmit secret messages, so everyone could hear what he said. They all showed strange looks in their eyes, and soon they focused on Mu Tiantong.
Several old Buddhist monks had long been dissatisfied with Mu Tiantong. When they heard this, they secretly cursed Mu Tiantong, the eighteenth generation ancestor of Mu Tiantong. You didn't even fart just now, and now you start to pry at the base of my house? You didn't even try to pull the strings.
You did it like that!
Mu Tiantong noticed the unkind looks from around him, but he didn't care at all and just drank tea.
Seeing this, Lu Zhi thought for a moment, put the tea cup to his mouth and took a sip, but his eyes never moved away from Xu Tong. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he understood something; "That's it, Prince
It’s a good idea, but how long can you last like this!”
Others who heard this were naturally baffled.
Xu Tong glanced at Mu Tiantong and saw that Mu Tiantong was still drinking tea with a teacup in his hand, as if it had nothing to do with me.
"You old man, sooner or later I'm going to burn down your Chongxuan Hall!"
Then he looked back at Lu Zhi, clasping his hands flat on his chest: "Amitabha, how about a bet between this poor monk and Donor Lu!"
"What are you betting on?!"
Lu Zhi's eyes were as bright as lightning, and his fingers were already ready to move.
Xu Tong suddenly raised his head, his eyes clear and firm, and Yu Luzhi looked directly at him: "Bet I will live longer than you!"
