Lord Liuli is one of the three fundamental incarnations of Medicine Master Liuli Light Tathagata, and is the outward manifestation of his majesty.
In other words, Venerable Liuli's identity is neither too big nor too small, just right. By suppressing him in the Buddha Prison, he can intimidate the rest of the Bodhisattvas and Arhats.
Even some low-status Buddhas are frightened by the Buddha Prison and do not dare to have other thoughts.
In addition, although the Buddha Prison is protected by the saint's magical power, there are still many areas that can be improved. Now that Liuli Venerable is in hand, Jiang Chen plans to integrate it into the Buddha Prison to turn the Buddha Prison into a magical weapon.
In this way, even if Jiang Chen is not in Xiniu Hezhou, the Buddha Prison can still exert its full power, enough to suppress the innate Taoist Master.
…
Tao Zun's supernatural power is beyond imagination. With one step, Jiang Chen can be said to be so close to the end of the world, not even thousands of miles away. One moment, he was still in Cangshan Mountain, but the next moment, he came to Xiniu Hezhou.
Instead of rushing to Dawei Tianlong Temple, Jiang Chen stopped and fell to the ground below.
Taking advantage of his free time now, he planned to travel around Xiniu and Hezhou to appreciate the local customs and customs.
By the way, let's see what changes the emergence of Tianwei Tianlong Temple has brought to this place, and whether it can inspire the resistance of the human race here.
I still remember that when Jiang Chen first came to Hezhou, Xiniu, the life of the human race here was in dire straits. If that was all, then that would be it. As long as hope is still there, suffering will eventually end.
But the fact is that the people here have become numb and have completely lost their will to resist. When faced with the coming disaster, they do not resist in anger, but blame themselves, thinking that it is their failure to practice good deeds that has caused today's disaster.
Then, they will go to the temple more devoutly to ask for the blessings of Bodhisattva Buddha and pray that they can be reborn in a good family in their next life.
this is too scary.
This is a dead world, where people are numb and without any hope at all.
Jiang Chen wants to change this situation, even if it is difficult, he has to change this if he wants to become an enemy of Buddhism.
As an ancestor of gods, Jiang Chen believes that believers and gods should achieve mutual success. The faith of all living beings is the source of god's power. Therefore, if gods want to remain strong, they need to protect all living beings.
If all living beings believe in God, God will protect all living beings.
This is fair and in line with the concept of justice.
In order to maintain their faith, Buddhism not only sat back and watched demons harm people, but also deliberately allowed the demons and ghosts raised by its subordinates to harm the people.
In Jiang Chen's opinion, this move is against the way of heaven, runs counter to the divine way, and is no different from a demon.
Therefore, Buddhism is guilty!
No, it is not Buddhism that is guilty, it is the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Venerables, and Arhats who sit on the spiritual mountain, ignore the sufferings of all sentient beings, and watch demons harm people.
Among Buddhists, anyone who sees people in trouble and fails to rescue them is guilty and should be thrown into Buddhist prison.
"Buddhism's 'disease' has penetrated deep into the bones. In serious cases, strong medicine is needed, so I, the 'doctor', have come to cut open the 'flesh' of Buddhism and scrape its bones to cure the poison."
"But just scraping the bones to cure the poison is not enough. It treats the symptoms, not the root cause. If we want to cure the root cause, we must completely clean out some people from Buddhism."
While looking at the scenery along the way, Jiang Chen thought about how to solve the Buddhist problem.
There must be something wrong with the human race in Xiniu Hezhou, and if you want to change them, the first thing you have to do is arouse their resistance.
easy to say, hard to do.
Being strong in strength is not the real strength. The strength in the heart is the real strength.
In order to make the human race in Xiniu Hezhou stronger, the first thing to do is to make them overcome the fear in their hearts and make them lose their awe of gods and Buddhas.
A long time ago, Jiang Chen discovered that the people here respected Bodhisattvas and Buddhas far more than demons and monsters.
In other words, as long as their fear of gods and Buddhas is eliminated, the demons and monsters will be nothing to them.
Just thinking and perfecting his plan, Jiang Chen walked forward. Soon, Jiang Chen passed by a city.
Without paying attention to the name of this city, Jiang Chen walked in directly.
Well, it can be seen that this is a very prosperous city. The spacious and clean streets and the flow of people coming and going all indicate the prosperity of this place.
Following the flow of people, Jiang Chen soon arrived at the most prosperous place in the city.
temple!
Yes, in Xiniu Hezhou, no matter what city it is, the most prosperous place must be the temple.
If not, then this city probably won't exist for long.
When Jiang Chen rushed to the temple, there seemed to be some activity being held here.
Countless people wearing gorgeous clothes walked into the temple with smiles. Behind them, many people dressed as servants carrying boxes after boxes also walked in.
As soon as his heart moved, Jiang Chen knew what was going on.
This is where believers build a golden body for the ‘Buddha’ they believe in. The boxes contain countless gold and silver.
The Buddha relies on the golden body, and the horse relies on the saddle.
In which temple is the Buddha not shining in golden color? How can a clay statue of Buddha look like that?
Believers donated some gold and silver to build a golden body for the Buddha. Whether it was good or bad was the fault of the Buddha and had nothing to do with Jiang Chen.
But the next scene made Jiang Chen feel angry and wanted to take care of this matter.
After those people in gorgeous clothes entered the temple, a group of people in ragged clothes also came here. However, they did not receive the same treatment as the previous group of rich people and were welcomed into the temple by the monks.
I saw them walking to the door of the temple, kowtowing step by step, and bowed to the statue of the gods in the temple from a distance, with very pious expressions.
Immediately, they stood up and put all the wealth they had into the merit box in front of the temple.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen couldn't bear it anymore. He stepped forward, stopped those people, and asked them: "Looking at you, the poor can hardly afford to eat, why don't you keep your money for use?"
Come to improve life, but donate it all instead?”
"You know, no matter how much money you donate, the Buddha and others will not be able to see it or use it. In the end, the money will only fall into the pockets of the monks to satisfy their selfish desires."
Jiang Chen was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and his status was obvious at first glance. When these people saw him blocking the way, they knelt down quickly, but they did not dare to answer.
But the monk on the side saw it and replied for them: "Sir, be careful, Buddha is watching. Buddha knows how much money they donated."
"When they die in the future, the Buddha will remember their merits and will let them join a good family so that they will not have to suffer today."
This sentence really made Jiang Chen laugh. He was really bullying ordinary people who didn't understand anything, right? The Buddha looked at it and knew what he was doing.
What the hell did he see? Is the Buddha so idle? He does nothing all day long and just counts money there?
"Haha!" Jiang Chen sneered twice, and did not pay attention to the monk who was talking, but continued to ask those people: "Why don't you go into the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, instead of worshiping from a distance outside the door?"
This time, the person who was stopped by Jiang Chen finally spoke.
He replied cautiously: "Sir, you are joking. What qualifications do we, lowly people, have to go in and see the Buddha?"
When Jiang Chen heard this, he immediately frowned and said displeasedly: "In front of the Buddha, all things are equal, so how can there be distinctions between high and low?"
On the other side, the monk who had spoken before heard Jiang Chen's words and said quickly: "Look at how dirty they are. If they dirty the main hall and make the Buddha feel disgusted, what should we do?
?”
Just as the monk finished speaking, a child stood in front of Jiang Chen and said boldly: "Those who insult the Buddha will go to hell, and those who are disgusted by the Buddha will go to hell. So we dare not go in for fear of dirtying the Buddhist temple."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Chen became completely angry and asked loudly: "Who said this? Which Buddha said it? How could he be so bold?"
"Tell me, who is he?"
"I want to see if he dares to let me go to hell after I scolded him?"
At this time, the monk who spoke was sure that Jiang Chen was here to cause trouble, and immediately shouted: "Buddhist holy land, no noise is allowed."
While speaking, the monk focused his magic power on his arms, grabbed Jiang Chen's shoulders, and wanted to throw him out.
However, how could his meager magic power be compared to Jiang Chen? Just one look scared him so much that he froze in place, unable to move.
Ignoring the monk, Jiang Chen walked up to the child, lowered his body and asked him in a friendly manner: "Child, what is your name? Can you tell me who said those words just now?"
Strange to say, the child was not afraid of Jiang Chen at all, but said a little cautiously: "I don't have a name, and I don't know who said those words just now, but everyone said so. Over time, I
Just remember it.”
It's normal to have no name. In this world, people without identity don't even deserve a name.
"Don't you know?" After muttering to himself, Jiang Chen continued to ask him: "My child, do you think it is reasonable to offer gold and silver to the Buddha?"
These are things that shouldn't be asked of a child, but by some strange combination of circumstances, Jiang Chen asked them.
The child was a little scared, but he looked around and said boldly: "Of course it's unreasonable. The poor don't have gold and silver, only the rich do. If Buddha accepts the service of gold and silver, does that mean he only protects the rich?
Instead of protecting the poor?”
“If Buddha is really like this, then it’s okay if you don’t believe in such a Buddha.”
This kind of remarks, at this time, can be called treasonous and unethical, but Jiang Chen said hello after hearing it.
"It's well said. A Buddha who measures his followers by the amount of gold and silver, or the status of his followers, is not a Buddha, but a demon. Not only should you not believe in him, but you will also want to defeat him."
"My child, although you are young, you have a Buddhist heart. Your future will shine brightly on Lingshan Mountain."
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, an angry voice came from the temple.
