C804 (1/2)
The emperor was still immersed in his memories, and Lin Mu was feeling uneasy.
Only when a young eunuch entered the palace to give his report did the Emperor come back to his senses.
Another expert had entered the palace. This time, he was not from a sect, but from a buddhist sect. He had a bald head and nine scars on it.
The buddhist disciples were benevolent. Li Dao did not find it strange that there were monks that could lift the emperor's banner. He just did not know if the other party had the ability to deal with the plague.
The origin of the Buddhist Sect was naturally a spiritual mountain. It was large and small, with countless temples. It could be said that it was even more prosperous than the Daoist Sect.
The other party was dressed in a crimson cassock embroidered with golden threads. His right hand held the Sentinel Wand, while his left hand held the Vajra Bowl. With a single glance, he looked extremely rich.
”Great Sage Temple's Yuan Zhou kowtows to our Emperor. Long live our Emperor!”
The monk was sixty to seventy years old. As soon as he entered the palace, he immediately bowed down to the floor and shouted, ”Long live the monk!”
This monk's cultivation level was a bit higher than Lin Nightmare's. He was already at the Core Formation stage and was not a proper monk.
Regardless of the Dao or the Buddha, they were all cultivators that could not be left out of the human realm. It wasn't strange for them to have this kind of behavior.
However, Buddhist people had always been thick-skinned, and this was something they had inherited from their ancestors, so it couldn't be faked. There were more believers in the Buddhist Sect than the Daoist Path, and that was because the disciples of the Buddhist Sect were more capable of deceiving them.
The emperor didn't seem to have a good impression of the monk. He lightly glanced at the old monk called Yuan Ye and said indifferently, ”Since you are a high monk, then dispense with the formalities.”
The monk stood up, not caring much about the emperor's attitude. If the emperor had been very cordial from the start, it would have been weird.
The buddhist faith in the buddhist faith was numerous, but in the past dynasties, there were very few emperors who believed in Buddhism. Instead, there were quite a few emperors who detested Buddhism.
There were many overlords who suppressed Buddhism. The most famous one was Emperor Liang Wu who exterminated Buddha. And in the near future, this emperor would also support Lin Xixing's act of exterminating Buddha. It was just that the monk in front of him did not know about it.
Ever since the old monk entered the hall, Lin Nightmare's face darkened, showing her hatred for the monk.
Lin Li had no parents when he was young, and had once been toyed with by monks for the sake of beggars. Later, Lin became Su Dongpo's errand boy and learned many truths from Su Dongpo. Under the influence of Su Dongpo, Lin Li felt even more ill for the Buddhist sect.
Until he became a disciple of the Divine Firmament Chapter, roamed the world, and got used to seeing the dirty nature of the majority of the buddhist disciples, his hatred towards the buddhist faith became even more intense.
The struggle over the Dao had been going on for a long time, and after Lin Mu changed his name to Lin Lingxiu, he was favored by the emperor. He had suppressed the Buddhist sect many times and almost succeeded in exterminating it.
As the inheritor of the two Western Sect, it was naturally not easy to suppress it. The teachings of the people, the teachings of the people, and the interception of the teachings did not succeed.
Of course, it was impossible to exterminate the Buddhist Sangha. If the two pope from the west did not fall, the Buddhist Sangha would never fall.
Li Dao didn't have any ill feelings towards Buddhism, probably because he didn't have any dealings with Buddhism. Moreover, he had once received the Six Golds Golden Body from Old Man Buddha, so he had no objections to the Buddhist Sangha.
Looking at the three masters in the great hall, the emperor coughed and said, ”During this time of chaos, plagues will arise everywhere, and life will be difficult for the people. As the ruler of a nation, I can't sleep or eat at night when I see my people in the midst of water and fire! Therefore, I have posted the royal name list on the city wall. I only wish for the help of the experts to save thousands of people in the midst of fire and water! Who can help me pass through this crisis? I will treat you as an Imperial Advisor. I wonder how the three experts are going to teach me? ”
The Emperor changed the subject and brought the topic back to the plague.
Now that the plague was everywhere, the group of doctors were helpless. Millions of people died from the plague every day, causing the people's resentment to boil. It would be strange if the emperor wasn't in a hurry.
In the long run, the government would not be able to solve the problem. The refugees would definitely rise up, and the government would fall into a crisis.
Even if no one rebelled, when most of the citizens died, what meaning would the emperor have in front of others?
The doctors had no way to deal with the plague, so the emperor placed his hopes on the experts. Many of them had taken down the imperial rankings and entered the palace, but none of them had the ability to deal with the plague, allowing the emperor to behead them.
