Master Wu Chen was so angry that his face turned green. Although he did not know what the cottonseed oil that the eunuch mentioned was, he knew that it was nothing good. However, for the sake of all the monks in the monastery, he had no choice but to tolerate it. Jingnian Monastery had a noble status in the pugilistic world. It had never suffered such humiliation. If not for Zen Master Liakong being behind him, he would have already flared up.
However, when he heard the words' He Jade ', he could not help but turn pale even though he was well-educated.
Even Zen Master Liakong, who had been quiet all this while, could not help but grip the staff in his hand tightly.
Everyone in the hall fell silent. Only Kuo Zhong and Xu Zhiling were still in the mood to whisper, "So the He Jade that Mother mentioned is here! However, the monks are unlucky this time. Yang Guang knows that the He Jade is here. A man's wealth is his own ruin! He seems to be talking about the He Jade! "
"The He Jade is a treasure of destiny. Jingnian Monastery actually dared to possess it privately. This is a capital crime. No emperor will let them off!" Xu Zhiling sighed.
Kuo Zhong came to a realization. "Originally, they thought that Yang Guang was still an incompetent ruler. Even if he knew that the He Jade was in their hands, he could not do anything to the group of monks. In the end, Yang Guang changed and led the East and West Faction to kill all the disobedient officials in the world. This item rotted in his hands, resulting in such a terrible disaster!"
"Zen Master, leave quickly!" Wu Chen suddenly said, "Let us stop them first. Zen Master, take the He Jade and leave this place quickly!"
"Amitabha!" A Buddhist proclamation shook the entire hall. It was Liakong, who had cultivated silent meditation, who spoke personally.
"Zen Master!"
"Wu Chen, silent meditation is to calm your mind. Now that your mind is no longer calm, what's the use?" Liakong said in a low voice. His voice was like jade colliding, clanging loudly. "The two factions have already made arrangements. This place is completely surrounded. All the monks of Jingnian Monastery have fallen into the enemy's hands. What's the use of me escaping alone?"
He turned to Kuo Zhong and Xu Zhiling and said, "It's a pity that I've implicated all of you! Benefactors, other than the He Shi Bi, what Yang Guang wanted the most were the two big secrets in your hands. The Art of Longevity and Eunuch Yang's Warehouse are things that the incapable ruler is determined to obtain. I originally wanted to bring the two of you here to protect them and prevent them from falling into Yang Guang's hands, but who knew that we would end up dragging you down. "
"I overestimated Zen Monastery Jingnian. I never expected the strength of the Eastern and Western Factories to be so terrifying. The monastery couldn't even withstand them for a moment."
Liao Zhiling forced his voice into a straight line and whispered, "Behind the Golden Buddha statue in the main hall, there is a secret passage that leads straight to the back of the mountain. Benefactors, please take Lady Dugu and leave first. I will once again stop the East Faction Guards and buy you some time." Then, Xu Zhiling suddenly felt something hard in his hand.
He guessed that this should be the Heshibi.
"Benefactor, take the Heshibi with you. You mustn't use your martial arts. When you reach the secret passage, bury this thing anywhere on the ground, and then activate the mechanism to destroy the entire secret passage, burying it under millions of kilograms of soil and stones. In the future, when a wise master is born, he will come here to excavate! "
With that, he took a step forward and said to the eunuch, "Amitabha! What a sin! Benefactor, please let go of the monks in the monastery! This Penniless Monk is willing to take their place. They are all people who have become monks. All sins will be borne by This Penniless Monk. It has nothing to do with them. "
"Do you think it has nothing to do with you just because you say it has nothing to do with you?" The eunuch sneered.
"The laws of the Sui Dynasty originate from His Majesty's imperial court and are decided by the Supreme Court. Whether they are guilty or not, it is up to the Supreme Court and His Majesty to decide. Why are you interfering? Liao Kong, you have illegally preached for many years. You have created and spread superstition and heresy, organized, planned, implemented, and instigated a split in the Sui Dynasty, slandered His Majesty, spoke rudely, and subverted the stability of the imperial court. You have even privately occupied the Heshibi, a national treasure of great significance, in an attempt to overthrow the imperial court system. You have committed the most heinous crimes. "
"Moreover, this is not done by you alone. It is a collective crime of the entire Hu cult. According to our investigations, Mount Wutai, Shaolin Temple, Huayan Sect, and more than five hundred monasteries have organized and purposefully participated in your rebellious actions. With an organization called Cihang Jing Temple as the leader, they used sex appeal and emotions to deceive and bewitch others to expand the cult's influence."
"Inciting subversion and creating absurd arguments about choosing the Son of Heaven to save the people is simply outrageous! His Majesty is a brilliant saint who saves the world and the people. He is higher than all saints and Buddhas. He is the highest god in the world and the son of Haotian. How dare any demon or ghost slander him? "
The eunuch solemnly bowed toward the sky and said, "Now, with our East and West Faction monitoring the world's lawless traitors, punishing and dismantling the cult's temple doors, and capturing its leaders, not to mention you, the entire Jingnian Monastery, and even the tens of thousands of monks in the world, will pay a heavy price for your rebellious actions."
He pulled out the spring embroidery knife from his waist and sneered, "Don't worry. In the hands of our two factions, even stones will speak. The monks of Jingnian Monastery will definitely confess your accomplices in the rebellion and let us send them down to see you."
Kuo Zhong and Xu Zhiling had not found a suitable opportunity, but they had already met up with Dugu Feng. They were only waiting for Liao Kong to distract the eunuch and create chaos so that they could escape.
Liao Kong, Wu Chen, and the others revealed expressions of anger and grief. They held their staffs and scanned the East Faction's fanatics everywhere. They heard Liao Kong shout, "Eunuchs! Don't you know the cycle of life and death and retribution for your actions? Now that the incapable ruler is in power, there are difficulties for us Buddhism, but we are willing to sacrifice our lives for a righteous cause and will be reborn in paradise. As for you incapable rulers, you will forever fall into the hell of Avici, never to be reincarnated! "
"Well said!" The eunuch laughed.
"I'm relieved. Since you all died so happily, you must have no regrets. It's fine as long as we suffer in this world. I will definitely report it to His Majesty. Anyone who believes in paradise, heaven, and hell will be sent to enjoy happiness. Liao Kong, I know you have many believers. Don't worry, you will definitely see them when you reach paradise. You won't be lonely. "
"I remember that in the Buddhist scriptures, those who have the blood of Buddha can go to heaven to become a demon king. Liao Kong, when you reach paradise, you must curse me so that I can become a demon king after I die. I will follow His Majesty and surpass countless fools in the world. "
"I, Gu Da, will enjoy it!" He laughed wildly.
"Kill!" Gu Da raised his left hand up high. All the fanatics drew their blades, and they were waiting for his left hand to swing down. They drew their long blades, causing the blood of the monk soldiers' necks to splatter.
"Stop!" Wu Chen's eyes were bloodshot. He was the first to raise his staff and pounce forward.
Just as he was carrying the nameless fire of karma and the might of a thousand catties, he attacked Gu Da's head. A figure wielding a long sword pounced down from the sky. A sharp and unpredictable sword gleam slashed Wu Chen's sword back into the hall.
Wu Chi and the others hurried forward to help Wu Chen. A long sword wound stretched from Wu Chen's abdomen to his shoulder. If it was an inch deeper, his chest would have been split open. The person's sword gleam was so swift that it sent chills down one's spine.
