Outside Jingnian Zen Temple, Su Cheng came here alone. Even if he was standing outside the Zen Temple, he could sense the vigorous blood of thousands of monks inside it.
In addition to the four great Vajras with the great masters and the master's cultivation level, there is no need to say more about first-class masters. Judging from the aura in the temple, there are actually five masters at the level of masters.
In other words, Jingnian Zen Temple alone is enough to sweep the entire Luoyang City. Even if Wang Shichong and Yinkui Sect work together, it is impossible to resist the Buddhist offensive.
"It's really terrifying, no wonder there are often acts of destroying Buddha..."
Su Cheng shook his head gently. In the original plot, Ning Daoqi had not appeared. Xiao Sheng alone could scare Zhu Yuyan and others away, and he could know the deterrent power of the Grandmaster, just like a nuclear weapon in later generations, although it would not be easy.
Touched, but no one dares to ignore it.
"Amitabha, the donor has finally arrived."
The voice came from far to near, and then a middle-aged monk came to the gate of the Zen temple with hundreds of monks.
"You met a special person, luck 6."
"You met a special person, luck 3."
...
The handsome middle-aged man in the head of Gao Ting was the presidency of Jingnian Zen Temple. A few of them were of the same age as Ning Daoqi. They were in their seventies or eighties. They looked so young at this time because of the martial arts he practiced.
Behind Lekong were four burly monks, all of whom were white, about sixty years old, wearing blue monk robe, with different expressions and heavy aura, so that they were not angry, not greedy, not ignorant, not ignorant
The Four Vajras in the Zen Temple.
After the four great Vajras, there were hundreds of monks wearing gray monk robes, each with a boiling blood and awesome momentum. Not to mention anything else, just offering these people was a small expense.
"I have met all the masters in the Sucheng of Quanzhen."
Su Cheng's eyes narrowed. In his senses, the place where Lekong was located was filled with endless Buddha lights. Although he was just standing there peacefully, it was impossible to underestimate him at all. He was also convinced that Lekong did indeed have it.
The cultivation level of the Grand Master.
But I had doubts in my heart. The original plot was so close that I should still be practicing meditation at this moment. Why did I speak at this moment?
"The donor follows me into the temple. No matter what happens, you can negotiate."
Leaning his body sideways, he takes Su Cheng into the temple, with respect in his words, which has nothing to do with anything else. Facing a great master, this is necessary respect.
Su Cheng did not have any concerns. Although Jingnian Zen Temple was indeed terrible, with his cultivation level, it was extremely simple to leave. Although Lekong and others were powerful, they could not keep him.
After entering the Zen temple, Su Cheng quietly observed the surroundings and found that this place is indeed a holy place in the world. Not to mention the thousands of monks, hundreds of buildings are also on a considerable scale.
"The 480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, and there are so many towers and rain. There are at least tens of thousands of Buddhist temples at their peak..."
"Even after several suppression, when Emperor Ruizong of Tang Dynasty Li Dan's period, there was still such a saying: Buddhas occupy seven or eight of the wealth in the world..."
Su Cheng put himself in his mind. If he was in the position of the emperor, facing such a huge force as Buddhism, he would inevitably have the intention of destroying Buddha. He would not be able to produce, have countless wealth, and there were monks and believers. This is enough.
Can influence the imperial power.
At this time, you will see the ridiculous act of Shi Feixuan in choosing the emperor on behalf of the heavens. You will find that this is not the rampant Buddhist sect, but that they really have the strength.
There were many thoughts in his mind, but Su Cheng didn't care too much. He was unintentionally involved in the disputes around the world, and Buddhism did not threaten him for the time being, so naturally he ignored these things.
There are two purposes for Sucheng's trip. One of them is to investigate the layout of Jingnian Zen Temple and find out the location of the Heshi Bi Hall so that it can act according to the opportunity.
It roughly sensed the layout of the entire Jingmin Zen Temple, but there was only one place with some abnormalities, which was a somewhat short temple, which was very different from other buildings in the Zen Temple.
After careful sensing, I realized that this was a bronze hall, about three meters in size and half a meter high. In this era, it was possible to build a temple with copper, which increasingly confirmed the wealth of Buddhism. Rong Fengxiang Luoyang
The title of the richest businessman is still somewhat different from that of Jingnian Zen Temple.
Lekong brought Su Cheng into the hall and shut down the other monks, with only four Vajras around him, and said:
"The donor came from Chang'an all the way and wanted to see me. I wonder what it is?"
With the terrifying strength of Buddhism, I have already found out the situation along Su Cheng's journey, so I will naturally speculate that Su Cheng's purpose of coming to Luoyang is that 90% of them came to Jingnian Zen Temple.
"Since the master is so direct, I will say it clearly. I want to understand some situations in Taoism. I wonder if the master can give me some advice?"
Su Cheng's sentence is half true and half false. If you want to understand the strength of the Taoist sect, there is no more suitable than Buddhism. Especially the relationship between Ning Daoqi and Buddhism is even more confusing.
In addition, this sentence is also to conceal Su Cheng's real purpose and avoid Kong's awareness. He came here to investigate the layout of the Zen Temple.
"Taomen..."
Lekong hesitated a little. In any case, he never expected that Su Cheng would ask such a question, shook his head and said:
"I understand the donor's meaning. Many people in the world are like donors, and they don't understand the situation of Taoism."
Taoist sect is a pure local force with a long development and long inheritance. Now it is not as strong as Buddhism. Not only now, but for a long time, Taoist sect has not been as powerful as Buddhism.
"The Taoist sect is based on dilution, advocates tranquility and inaction, and does not fight with the world. The inheritance also pays attention to opportunities and nature. It is better to lose it than to spread it in a nonsense. Therefore, the donor rarely hear about them. However, as far as I know, the Taoist sect has the power to do so, although it is known to me,
Not as good as my Buddha's kindness, but its potential power is not small, and there are endless masters. Sanren Ning Daoqi, Taoist Qihui of Daoguan, Wang Yuanzhi of Shangqing School, etc. are all great masters who are not inferior to you and me..."
Su Cheng frowned slightly. When he heard Kong's explanation, he also had some doubts in his heart while understanding some things. Why did he never notice so many great masters when he had observed the weather before?
Is it a problem with one's own realm, or is there another reason?
Su Cheng temporarily pressed his questions, and then continued to listen to Kong's story, and also had some basic understanding of the situation of the Taoist sect.
The Taoist sect does not develop believers like the Buddhist sect, and there are often only a dozen disciples. They pay attention to tranquility and inaction, and rarely move around the world. Although there are many masters among them, they are far inferior to those of Buddhism in terms of prosperity.
In addition, judging from the situation described by Li Kong, although there is friction between Buddhism and Taoist sect, there is no serious hatred, because Taoist sect hides its own actions and rarely interferes in the situation in the world. In the eyes of Buddhism, the Demon Sect
It's the thorn in the eyes.
This also explains why Ning Dodge's relationship with Buddhism is so subtle.
"The Taoist sect... is really like this. It's a bit like the ones in later generations. Like the leaders of the rebel army in various places today, there is really no one who supports the Taoist sect..."
Su Cheng nodded, slapped a question in his heart and put down his original conspiracy theory idea.
