My clone is on the other side of the starry sky

Although there were some twists and turns, after this battle, Lu Xuan obtained three relics, and the Guiyi Sect also gained a fourth-level master who could be absolutely trusted. For Lu Xuan, not only was there no loss in being trapped this month, On the contrary, the strength has further grown.

In the meeting hall, everyone looked at Zen Master Yuan Zhen who was sitting under Lu Xuan. Although they all knew what was going on, a big bald man who was still a fourth grade suddenly appeared in the crowd, and they felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Everyone knows about Zen Master Yuanzhen, Fourth Senior Brother." Lu Xuan looked at everyone and said with a smile.

"Here!" Li Xingzhi stood up and said.

"In the future, Buddhist schools will also be established in Guiyi Sect's academies to allow the spread of Buddhist theories."

"Yes." Li Xingzhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. There were many problems in Buddhism that actually had a negative impact on a country, but he believed that Lu Xuan knew what he had in mind, so he didn't rush to say it in public and prepared to discuss it with Lu Xuan privately. Let’s talk about this.

"But Zen Master, I don't want the followers of my Guiyi Sect to go and believe in Western Buddhism. The Guiyi Sect accepts Buddhism, but does not accept Buddhism. There is a Buddha in the heart, everything is a Buddha, and everyone can be a Buddha. Also, in this world In order to develop, marrying a wife and having children is also the law of nature and human relations. The Buddhas of our Guiyi Sect cannot help but marry and have children. Some of the ideas imposed by Buddhism do not need to be implemented in the Guiyi Sect. Since Buddhism wants to spread in our Jiuzhou, it must conform to the people of Jiuzhou and guide it. People can be kind, but if this leads to laziness in people's minds and affects the growth of the country's destiny, then there is something wrong with the Buddha." Lu Xuan looked at Zen Master Yuan Zhen and said.

When Yuan Zhen heard the words, he frowned slightly and performed a Buddha salute to Lu Xuan: "Amitabha, leader, Buddha saves people in the world and has supreme supernatural powers. If everyone in the world is a Buddha, what is the meaning of a Buddha?"

"The only person in this world who can save people is the person himself. How does the Buddha save people? How does he save people from suffering? Do they give money directly? The money will be used up one day. What should I do if it is used up?" Lu Xuan asked.

Yuan Zhen shook his head: "Of course it's not that simple. Buddha saved the world to let people understand that the fruits of this life are sown in the previous life. If you sow good causes in this life, you will get good results in the next life..."

Li Xingzhi shook his head and smiled: "Master, what you said is wrong. Who can really see that illusory afterlife? Even if there is an afterlife, what does it have to do with this life? I have no memory of this life in the next life. Even if I have one soul, I have no memory. Is the other self still myself? Why should I suffer and suffer in this life for the enjoyment of another unrelated person?"

"The donor's words are too selfish." Yuan Zhen shook his head.

"Everyone has selfishness. If there is no selfishness, they are called sages in Confucianism. But how many people in the past and present can be called sages? It is precisely because people's hearts are selfish when we preach and study, so there are Buddhas in Buddhism and sages in Confucianism. There is no order in the Tao, and those who achieve it come first. The so-called Buddha saves the world. In Buddhist terms, the Buddha is on the other shore, and the rolling world is a sea of ​​suffering. If you can see through the illusion, cross the sea of ​​suffering, and not be happy with things or feel sad for yourself, then naturally everyone will They are all Buddhas. Buddhas do not have unparalleled supernatural powers, nor are they immortal, but they have a state of looking at all things in the world. Just like our Confucian sages, they are a state. As long as they reach it, they are sages, not specific people. The Buddha that the master talks about is not selfish."

"I heard that all the Buddhist countries in the Western Regions use blood to judge the superiority and inferiority. What the master said about this life and the next life is just to appease the people at the bottom to be willing to suffer and put their hope in the afterlife. This is to paralyze the world, rather than to save people. Three hundred years ago, I, the Confucian The reason for destroying the Buddha is because Buddhism wants to turn Daqian into a Buddhist country."

In terms of debating scriptures, Confucians are already experts. In addition, the movement to exterminate Buddhism three hundred years ago was not just about killing people. Confucians were already the first to deal with Buddhist doctrines. Now Lu Xuan’s All Living Beings are Buddhas to Li Xingzhi. It provides a good idea. At this moment, Li Xingzhi used Lu Xuan's theory to demonstrate Western Buddhism from the structure to the bottom, almost completely denying Buddhism.

As a Buddhist Zen master, Yuan Zhen is not bad at debating scriptures, and his rebuttals are well-founded, pointing out the shortcomings of Confucianism. Each school of thought has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own system. Sometimes the advantages and disadvantages are integrated, and they are discarded. The shortcomings are often discarded together with the advantages. Taking the essence and discarding the dross is only an ideal state, but in fact it is impossible to achieve.

At first, Lu Xuan and everyone listened with interest, but as time went by, Lu Xuan, Yan Danfeng, and Yang Ao couldn't hold it any longer. Even Lu Xuan, who was good at debating and catching the loopholes in the enemy's words, was the same. After all, there were many academic things. The threshold is so high that I can’t even understand, let alone interrupt.

Lu Xuan glanced at Yan Danfeng and Yang Ao, and the three of them took out the Shui Jian in a tacit understanding and typed directly without speaking.

Now that the structure of Huangzhou is basically completed, Lu Xuan will next maximize the advantages of this war. Since both the Xie family and the Murong family are involved, they must treat them equally and win Wuzhou. In this way, Lu Xuan had the basic foundation for rebuilding Tiandu. As long as the fortunes of Huangzhou, Dongzhou and Wuzhou were digested, although he could not occupy all the nine states, due to the differences in the overall structure and the interests of officials, they were different from those during the Great Qian Dynasty. The essential difference is that the luck gathered in these six states may exceed that of Daqian at his peak.

This is because the population of Daqian has dropped sharply after so many years. If the population can also increase, the luck brought by these six states alone will be enough for Lu Xuan to ignore the threats from the Taoist Alliance and Buddhism. Therefore, the top priority is Take Wuzhou as soon as possible. Buddhism takes action. I am afraid that the Taoist League will not be able to sit back and watch the Guiyi Sect take Wuzhou, so it must be fast. He will ask Dongzhou to support him and make a decision to take Zhangzhou first. momentum.

Of course, at the master level, the Dao Alliance has an absolute advantage, so attacking in the east and west may not work. They are fully capable of sending masters to both sides. Nascent Soul masters are precious to the princes, but not so precious to the five sects of the Dao Alliance.

After the three people made a simple plan, they immediately started to make arrangements. First, Yang Chong led the army into Wuzhou. Then, after ensuring stability, the troops of Huangzhou gathered in Wuzhou, and Yan Danfeng led them to follow. The Zhantang disciples in the state were led by Yang Ao and went straight to Jiangyang County, where the Murong family was in Wuzhou. At the same time, Shenfengtang and Yinsha promptly provided Lu Xuan with information about various prefectures in Wuzhou. Over there at the Shenji Camp... It’s a little more difficult, and I’ll try my best to keep up with the logistics.

After the Battle of Huangzhou and the Battle of Dongzhou, Shenji Battalion's reserves over the years have been almost depleted. At present, other supplies in the army are fine, but consumable supplies such as the Po Gang Arrow are unable to keep up. For the sake of Unity Sect, I believe Zhang Yuanrou can understand.

In the hall, only Yuan Zhen and Li Xingzhi were still arguing eloquently. This debate between Confucianism and Buddhism did not end until Lu Xuan returned from Wuzhou...

Wuzhou, Jiangyang County, Gusu City.

A tall and tall woman descended from the sky. Her eyes glanced at Murong Yan and Murong Xing who were already waiting here. She simply nodded to Murong Fu. The woman looked at Murong Xing who was standing aside: "Is something wrong with my second brother?"

"Yes." Murong Xing nodded and said, "The news just came back from Huangzhou. The second brother, Cui Jinxing and Cui Ruiyuan of the Cui family, and the new master Cui Yu all died in battle. Shan Hongfei, Liu Chunhua, and Zhang Wang surrendered. Now that the Guiyi Sect's army has entered Wuzhou, the fourth child has gone to the front line to command the army to resist the Guiyi Sect. Now is the time of life and death for me, the Murong clan, Yunmei, it's time for me to abandon my prejudices."

After obtaining the seal of the mountains and rivers, both Murong Fu and Murong Yan regarded themselves as the orthodox members of the Murong family and refused to give in. In the end, Murong Yun followed Murong Fu to Liuzhou, while Murong Yan obtained most of the assets of the Murong family and settled in Wuzhou. The situation is similar.

"Hmph, when the Cui family planned the Guiyi Sect, they did not think of me, Murong. Now that the plan failed and was defeated by the Guiyi Sect, I remembered it." The woman is Murong Yun, who is of the same generation as Murong Cheng and Murong Xing, and is also a big brother. Qian was a rare woman of fifth rank, and her reputation in the Jinjiang River area once surpassed that of several of her brothers.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. The Guiyi Sect is so ambitious that it has annexed Huangzhou and Dongzhou one after another. The Xie family has sent a letter asking for help. The Guiyi Sect seems not to be satisfied yet. Judging from its momentum, it seems that it wants to take this opportunity to unify Kyushu, we have to fight this battle!"

The fifth-grade master sent to support the Cui family died and surrendered. For the Murong family, the top combat power could be said to have suffered a devastating blow. If they could not fight this battle, the Murong family would also be able to deal with the loss in the Huangzhou battle. They can swallow it, but the question now is not whether they are willing to fight, but the Guiyi Sect forcing them to fight.

The number of masters in the Murong family and the Xie family has dropped sharply, while the Guiyi Sect already had many masters, and now it has conquered Zhang Wang and Liu Chunhua. At the master level, even if the two families combined are not enough to fight each other, the Guiyi Sect is now coming fiercely. , the military morale of the Murong family is somewhat unstable now.

"In this battle in Huangzhou, there were six fifth-grade masters in the Cui family. How could they be defeated?" Murong Yun wondered, how could this situation be reversed?

"I don't know. Maybe the problem arises in the incarnations of Zhang Wang and Liu Chun. Don't forget that Cao Jingzhong is Zhang Wang's adoptive father, and he and Liu Chunhua were also core figures of the eunuch party at that time. If these two betrayed each other at a critical moment, It may indeed lead to the loss of everything." Murong Yan said worriedly: "Looking at the number of fifth-grade people now, even if my aunt comes here, I'm afraid it won't be enough to resist the Guiyi Sect."

Murong Yun thought for a moment and then said: "In the past few years, I have made several Taoist friends from the Qingyun Taoist Sect. I may seek help from the Qingyun Taoist Sect, but I don't know if I can invite them."

"If there is an expert from the Taoist Alliance who is willing to help, why not be afraid of Guiyi Sect!" Murong Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said quickly: "Please contact Qingyun Taoist Sect as soon as possible."

"But Fu'er once said, be careful with Taoist alliances. It's easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away! The people in Liuzhou believe in the Qingyun Taoist Sect, and they are competing with us for luck!" Murong Yun hesitated. Murong Fu has been in charge of Liuzhou these years. I have realized that this Taoist alliance is not as uninterested in fame and wealth as imagined, but what they want is something that everyone could not see before. Now that I have the mountain and river seal in my hand, I can detect the true intention of the Taoist alliance.

"Now that we have reached the moment of life and death, we can no longer care about these things." Murong Xing sighed. No matter what the Dao Alliance wants, it is better than the annihilation of the Murong family. Other matters can be discussed slowly, and there will always be a solution.

While Murong Yun was hesitating, suddenly someone from the Murong family came to report that the Guiyi Sect's army had broken through the frontline army. Wherever the frontline passed, the force was overwhelming, and now the target was pointing directly at Jiangyang.

"But the fifth grade of the Guiyi Sect takes action!?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this and asked quickly.

"There are no fifth-grade soldiers taking action, only enemy soldiers, and at most sixth-grade warriors, charging into the formation."

Everyone looked at each other after hearing this, and saw the look of surprise in each other's eyes. How could they have defeated their frontline army so quickly without a fifth-grade attack?
