These 10,000 people are the special forces formed by Li Shouxi. After layers of selection, the most elite soldiers with martial arts level 4 or above are included in them.
The difficulty of making heavy armor is several times that of other armor, not to mention that a set of heavy armor weighs at least seventy kilograms.
Therefore, the selection criteria are extremely strict.
In order to increase the defense of the Iron Pagoda, Li Shouxi also used black iron as the material for casting heavy armor. Technically, it may not be as refined as the Black Armor, but it is definitely much better than ordinary fine steel heavy armor.
It can be said that once the Iron Pagoda appears, it is like a meat grinder on the battlefield.
"Namo Amitabha"
In Chengtian Temple, after Liao Fan finished meditating, he looked at the official report in his hand and couldn't help but feel depressed.
He could already imagine the difficulties that Buddhism was facing in Liaodong.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan does not play by the rules at all. There was the horrific explosion last night, and then there was another big bomb this afternoon.
Two hundred thousand soldiers?
Now that the threat on the grassland has disappeared, who are these two soldiers and ten thousand soldiers targeting? Anyone with a discerning eye can see it clearly.
The most important thing is that according to Li Shouxi’s recruitment standards, all of them are natives of Liaodong, leaving them no chance to infiltrate.
There is no possibility of these Liaodong natives rebelling because of their belief in Li Shouxi.
Moreover, these natives are from the north, real seven-foot or eight-foot strong men. Therefore, once they enter the army and are trained as soldiers, they will definitely be the elite among the elite.
It is common sense that the South has never been able to defeat the North since ancient times.
"Master Liaofan, is it really impossible to win over His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan?"
A voice as ethereal, beautiful and moving as a wind chime rang in Lu Fan's ears.
Then, a solitary white shadow appeared outside the Zen room. As stunning as a fairy from heaven, it floated gracefully across the water. Its stunningly beautiful face was sacred and could not be desecrated.
The person who came was none other than the contemporary saintly lady master Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai.
Besides coming to inspect Liaodong this time, he also hoped to win over Prince of Yan Li Shouxi and work together for a great plan.
However, judging from the attitude of the Prince of Yan's Mansion towards Buddhism, especially the articles in the Fengtian Gazette promoting atheism and self-reliance in the world, it was obvious that Li Shouxi could not be won over by them.
As for the temptation of beauty?
This is a method often used by Cihang Jingzhai.
The Demon Sect's "Heavenly Demon Strategy" can increase one's own charm and enchantment, hence the name of the Witch Demon; and Cihang Jingzhai's "Cihang Sword Classic" can make practitioners more sacred and ethereal, as holy and otherworldly as the Goddess of Wushan or the Goddess of Lingshan.
Therefore, even some martial arts masters who were not interested in women fell at the feet of Cihang Jingzhai.
When Shi Feixuan found out that Li Shouxi had been practicing Pure Yang Boy's Kung Fu for the past twenty years and was surrounded by many beautiful women, she gave up her plan of showing up.
For someone who can practice the Pure Yang Boy's Skill to perfection and remain calm even when surrounded by top beauties, it is impossible for him to give up Liaodong or join the game without reason because of her.
However, after seeing the terrifying firearms in Prince Yan's Mansion last night, Shi Feixuan began to pay attention to Prince Yan's Mansion again.
That kind of firearm with terrifying lethality is definitely a weapon of war.
It may not be enough to deal with experts, but once it is fired, it can definitely directly break the morale of the enemy's army.
If the number is sufficient, a complete demolition is enough to wipe out the enemy army.
This is especially true during a siege, as a rocket can directly blow open the city gate.
It was so magical that even Shi Feixuan saw its value.
"Amitabha!"
Faced with Shi Feixuan's expectations, Lefan simply shook his head.
As a great Buddhist monk, how could Liaofan not hear Li Shouxi's dissatisfaction with Buddhism?
This dissatisfaction is not directed at the Buddhist teachings, but at the Buddhist greed.
Is Buddhism greedy?
Le Fan could say that he was not greedy, because he really was not greedy for those yellow and white things.
But Liao Fan knew that his greed was not for material things.
Therefore, he knew that Li Shouxi's resistance to Buddhism was not just about those few acres of land and a few mountains.
And that kind of mental control lies in endless greed.
"Don't worry, nephew. His Royal Highness Prince Yan has a clear mind. Our scheme is not worthy of being mentioned.
What's more, it's not as simple as you think. If you say that Your Highness doesn't know the purpose of Cihang Jingzhai, I will never believe it. The contempt revealed in his eyes made me look like a clown, as if he had seen through everything. "
Chapter 109: The Thousand-Year-Old Pagoda Zen Master Wuming
"It's really like mounting paper and building a memorial archway!"
Suddenly, a clear, lively and charming chuckle spread throughout the temple, causing Shi Feixuan's face to change slightly.
Who else could have made such a contemptuous and direct mockery, except for the old rival Yingui Sect?
When Shi Feixuan was looking for the other party's position, a rainbow shadow flew away like a ghost. Shi Feixuan did not doubt it and quickly followed it. It was so lonely and looked like a big bird flying in the sky.
When Shi Feixuan chased out, Lefan also sighed.
Where there are celestial beauties, there are naturally demon beauties. These two mortal enemies are not only equally matched in talent, but also in appearance and methods.
Moreover, his coming here was no secret, and how could the Yingui Sect not know the news of Cihang Jingzhai.
However, when Le Fan was about to leave, a figure suddenly appeared in the temple.
"Amitabha, Liao Fan meets Manager Cao!"
Cao Shaoqing of the Prince of Yan’s Mansion!
The famous Demon Sword Master in the martial arts world.
He appeared here silently at this time, which made Lu Fan feel curious.
Logically speaking, the attitude of Prince Yan's Mansion towards Buddhism is extremely bad, and it is impossible for it to have any disputes with Buddhism, let alone this ancient temple that is hundreds of years old.
450 However, Cao Shaoqing did not come here to look for Lefan. He just glanced at Lefan, nodded, and went straight to the depths of Chengtian Temple, and came to an ancient tower deep in the mountains.
This is an ancient stone tower. Judging from its dilapidated state, it seems to be crumbling.
But at this time, the sound of wooden fish chanting scriptures came from the ancient pagoda, which made people concentrate and calm their minds.
And Lefan, who came with Cao Shaoqing, was also surprised when he saw the dilapidated ancient tower in front of him.
Because this is a seven-story pagoda!
It seems to be quite old. He has been resting here for a while without even realizing it.
This is a famous scenic spot.
"Old Zen Master, the prince asked me to come and get the treasure."
After returning to Daliang, Li Shouxi returned to Fengtian City and asked Cao Shaoqing to enshrine the Sword of Wisdom and the Buddhist relics there.
Because this is a real thousand-year-old tower.
The current Chengtian Temple was built on the basis of the original ancient temple, and the ancient pagoda became a forbidden area. Legend has it that there are Buddhist treasures hidden inside.
However, over the past hundreds of years, the masters of Chengtian Temple have searched this place again and again but have not found it.
The old Zen master that Cao Shaoqing mentioned was none other than the master who abbotted Chengtian Temple.
It has been guarding this thousand-year-old tower for more than sixty years.
As for the reason why Li Shouxi enshrined the Zen sword and the relic here, it was to help the old Zen master take the last step - the Great Celestial Realm, and be promoted to the Dual Realm Grand Master!
Yes, Li Shouxi hates Buddhism, but that doesn’t mean Li Shouxi won’t recruit Buddhist masters to serve him.
The most important thing in Buddhism is self-realization.
What is Mahayana Buddhism? What is Hinayana Buddhism?
Whether it is Cihang Jingzhai or Jingnian Zen, they seem to be practicing the Mahayana method, but in fact they are too selfish and are just the path of Hinayana.
The true Mahayana Buddhism not only saves oneself, but also saves others!
The most important thing is to put aside sectarian views and the distinction between Buddhism and Taoism, to help others solve their problems, and to encourage them to do good, only then can we save others!
Instead of manipulating the world and promoting Buddhism for personal gain.
To help people become Buddhas, isn’t that the same as helping them enter Buddhism?
This is the biggest difference between Luofan and others and the old Zen master, and this is also the important reason why Li Shouxi is willing to help the old Zen master overcome this hurdle.
When Li Shouxi came here to look for treasure, he met the old Zen master for the first time.
"Namo Amitabha!"
A low and old Buddhist chant was heard. To Luo Fan's shock, a thin, white-haired old man who seemed to be dying slowly walked out of the pagoda.
At the same time, inside the pagoda, two burly monks in their forties or fifties followed closely behind, each holding a pestle to subdue demons and a pure gold Ashoka Stupa in their hands.
The unfathomable old man and the two Vajra realm masters made Luofan terrified.
I didn't expect that this seemingly simple Chengtian Temple actually hides such a terrifying background, and it is also related to the Prince of Yan's Mansion.
They really couldn't understand, since the Prince of Yan's Mansion had connections with Buddhism, why did it reject Buddhism so much?
At this time, the old man looked at Cao Shaoqing, bowed his head and said:
"Manager Cao, sorry for the long wait!"
“Old Zen Master, you are too polite. Shaoqing just arrived here as well.
This time, the prince has ordered that the old Zen master be invited to sit in Baiyun Temple and enshrine the Buddhist treasures in Baiyun Temple for the people to admire. "
"Namo Amitabha, may your Majesty have mercy!"
The old man looked respectful and did not hesitate at all.
As for Baiyun Temple?
However, there is a place in Fengtian City where people burn paper to pray for blessings and fulfill their ancestors' wishes. There are only two small temples in the nunnery.
At this time, Li Shouxi directly placed a huge Buddha in the temple. It was not only a mockery of Buddhism, but also had deeper reasons.
Although Li Shouxi resisted Buddhist incense, those who believed in Buddhism were not ordinary people, but the families of the gentry and wealthy families, especially the old ladies.
Instead of letting those ancient temples make the money, it is better to let these people give the money to Li Shouxi.
"Haha, isn't the old Zen master curious?"
"Your Highness's action must have a profound meaning. I dare not speculate!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Shaoqing smiled and bowed, congratulating:
“Congratulations, old Zen master, the time has come for you to become a Buddha.
The prince planned to develop a temple street in Fengtian City, that is, to set up a place in Fengtian City specifically for burning incense, praying, and resolving worries and doubts.
This street needs a Buddhist monk to take charge and attract people.
Once this street prospers, at least thousands of jobs can be created. Especially with the income brought by Temple Street, at least thousands of families can quickly become rich and live a well-off life.
In addition, all the income from Baiyun Temple in Temple Street will be invested in the orphanage to take in more orphans.
According to your highness's estimation, as long as everything goes well, the annual incense offerings from Baiyun Temple will be worth at least ten thousand gold coins."
"Namo Amitabha!"
The old Zen master was shocked when he heard this. He never expected that a small Baiyun Temple could have such merit.
Even Luo Fan was shocked beyond words by Li Shouxi's amazing operation!
He was not a monk who only knew how to chant sutras, and he soon realized the damage that Baiyun Temple posed to Buddhism.
A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.
It doesn’t matter how big a temple is, as long as there is Buddha there, it will be magical!
The old Zen master may indeed have become famous, and Buddhism may have become more popular, but it is Baiyun Temple that is popular, and it is the old monk who is respected, rather than the kind of popularity that they want.
In a sense, Li Shouxi divided their destiny.
And it was an open conspiracy.
Even looking at the two great Vajra Realm behind the old monk, plus the old monk who seemed to be dying but was actually unfathomable, this was definitely a giant Buddha! .
