Doupeng smiled slightly: "Yes, this person meets my requirements very well, especially when Tao Yuanming, a former great public official, joins the officialdom and does not have such high credibility, I will find someone who is not afraid of power and does not love power in the eyes of the world.
The saint has come to take on this role. In this Guangzhou city defense battle, if Huiyuan can give confidence to the soldiers and civilians in the city and support them in defending the city, his status in people's hearts will be as high as Qianli's return to Jiankang.
Liu Yu, who has won the defense battle, is neck and neck. At this time, I can use Huiyuan in various ways to fight against Liu Yu. Of course, this requires your cooperation and support. "
Kumarajiva laughed: "How can I influence him? You just saw how stubborn Huiyuan is, even if he doesn't care about his life. I want him to go against Liu Yu and become an enemy. How is it possible?
What? He himself also said that he believed that Liu Yu was a true hero who could bring peace to the world. Liu Yu's army would not harm the people like the Han warlords and Hu chiefs in troubled times. Even Lu Gu, an old classmate, he
I also feel that they are not as good as Liu Yu and their Beifu Army."
A cold light flashed in Doupeng's eyes: "Yes, he is a man with strong beliefs and compassion. He is different from Master Luo Shi, who is in Buddhism but thinks about fame, wealth and power. Sorry, I said
It doesn't sound very nice, but between you and me, there's no need to be so polite."
Kumarajiva's old face turned slightly red, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't really care about power, but I have had enough of giving it to this king or that emperor to attack the city and destroy the country, and then take all kinds of people and monks.
In the days when my life is threatened, only by having a status that is truly not dominated by these human rulers can I better preach and preach, and can I realize my great wish to become a Buddha. I want to become a Buddha, so that I can save all sentient beings.
That's right, unlike your cultivation, even if all the people in the world die, you won't hesitate."
Doupeng smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Master, don't be excited. Our goals are not conflicting. I don't insist on the death of all the people in the world. If they don't hinder our ten thousand-year peace plan, I will still be happy for them to live.
Okay, it can keep our incense going. However, now we have met Liu Yu, an atheist. In his opinion, whether it is our Tiandao League's practice of cultivating immortals and seeking enlightenment or your Buddhism's journey of saving all sentient beings.
He will not allow us to compete with him for human, financial and material resources, so he will be a public enemy of the aristocratic family, our Divine Alliance, and your Buddhist temple."
Kumarajiva said in a deep voice: "But since Liu Yu can compromise and make concessions with the noble families, there is no need to kill Buddhism. Huiyuan has now cooperated with Wu Yinzhi to defend the city, and he can also defend Liu Yu in the future.
He is not the kind of person who wants to open Buddhist temples everywhere and raise monks. He is still thinking of going to Tianzhu to pray for Buddha and learn Buddhist scriptures, so he may not have a direct conflict with Liu Yu."
Doupeng's face changed slightly, and he turned to smile and said: "Well, we need our help. People will change. Huiyuan used to practice hard in the mountains and didn't care about worldly affairs for decades. Although in the Buddhist world,
He is famous, but not many people in the world recognize him. Moreover, if he defends the city of Guangzhou, he will be regarded as a living Bodhisattva by thousands of people. Even if he himself is not willing, those who come to him and want to become his disciples will definitely not
No less. When the time comes, with the help of his defense, he will also put forward conditions to Liu Yu to allow him to open a temple to preach Buddhism. In other words, many disciples of Tianshi Dao who have nowhere to escape after the defeat will face danger.
If he is liquidated and executed by the Jin army, he will definitely become compassionate and plead for mercy to accept these people, just like he still doesn't want Liu Yu to take Lu Gu's life."
Kumarajiva smiled and said: "This is the teaching of our Buddhism. Saving a person's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. It can make a great evil person turn around. That will be a supreme merit. Master Huiyuan should also really believe in it."
By relying on these, he wanted to become a Buddha in the flesh and ascend in the daytime. Because he claimed to have experienced the Buddha's appearance and had a miracle that allowed him to survive, so he felt that he had an obligation to become the spokesperson of the Buddha in this world.
, to save all sentient beings, if the so-called opening of more Buddhist temples is to protect the lives of those members of the Celestial Master Tao who are about to be executed, then it is entirely possible."
Doupeng nodded: "That's it. If Tianshi Dao is defeated this time, there will be tens of thousands of party members, together with their families, at least more than 100,000 people, who will face the revenge of the Jin army soldiers, and the end will never be the same.
Well, just look at this time in Guangzhou, in just a few days, Wu Yinzhi and others killed thousands of registered disciples of Tianshi Dao who were reported. These were just wealthy households in the city, just because they had some donations and cooperation with Tianshi Dao.
Without their lives, not to mention the troops led by Lu Xun and Xu Daofu, Guangzhou is the hometown where Tianshi Tao has been operating for nearly ten years, whether it is the powerful Han people in the city or the barbarians in the mountains and forests.
There are hundreds of thousands of tribes who have contact with Tianshi Dao. Now Liu Yu has returned to Jiankang, leaving his generals to clean up the remaining forces of Tianshi Dao. For the sake of military glory, these people will definitely let the prisoners of Tianshi Dao
His head will become the credit for killing the enemy!"
Kumarajiva frowned: "Won't Liu Yu explicitly prohibit it? Didn't he say that the culprit will be punished and threats will never be asked? I think north of Wuling, even the nearest Leichi and Zuoli, Liu Yu
Yu didn’t go on a killing spree, right? Didn’t all the new followers of Tianshi Dao who surrendered on their own initiative be let go?”
Doupeng laughed and said, "This is Liu Yu's brilliance. Yes, he said he wanted to be benevolent and righteous and not to go on a killing spree, but he knew in his heart that the last time he was benevolent, he let Lu Xun go.
He and Xu Daofu went into the sea, which resulted in today's huge disaster. This time it was barely suppressed, but who knows whether these old Tianshi Dao tribes who were let go will rebel again one day? Even if this is not considered, Jin
Military officers and soldiers, how many people from the Beifu Army brothers died in the Tianshi Dao Rebellion in the past two years? How could their desire for revenge be abandoned just because the other party surrendered and collapsed?"
"To the north of Wuling, it is indeed possible to suppress everyone's murderous intentions and only kill those who have been with the Three Wu Dynasties, or the old thieves who were in the Tianshi Tao army before Lingnan launched the army. But what about Lingnan? This place has always been loyal to Tianshi.
Almost all the Taoists had some relationship with Tianshi Tao. Liu Yu returned to Jiankang himself, but let the generals continue to hunt Xu Daofu and Lu Xun. They were the ones who made the distinction between evil and coercion.
Does it count? In Guangzhou, we started to kill everyone who had cooperated with Tianshi Dao and reported it to the locals. Not to mention the tribes and prisoners outside Guangzhou City, they would definitely become many handsome generals in order to be promoted.
At the top of the list of military exploits at that time. When the time comes, our Master Huiyuan will see a bloody storm with his own eyes, and even the terrifying skeleton temple will reappear." (End of this chapter)
