Chapter 606: Theocracy and Imperial Power

"Is this a Taoist temple?"

"Wucao, if it's a Taoist temple, forget it. I heard that Mr. Qin Hao's master is the master of Tongtian, and he is also a Taoist!"

"That's right, if it's a Taoist temple, forget it!"

Although everyone was addicted to smashing temples, they immediately reacted when they heard what the Taoist said.

They came to smash temples, not Taoist temples. Besides, Qin Hao is inextricably related to Taoism. Although he is not a Taoist himself, he still has the roots of Taoism.

This point, many people are very clear.

The middle-aged Taoist breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard what everyone said, and his uneasy mood calmed down. He nodded in relief. That's right, our Taoist school has something to do with Qin Hao, so you won't smashed it?

"No, although he is a Taoist priest, who knows if he is in disguise? I think it's safe, let's go in and have a look!"

"That's right, Wai Yi was pretended by those bald donkeys?"

At this moment, someone in the crowd said wittily.

Hearing this, the face of the middle-aged man changed slightly, Wucao, if I let you in, and a few random people come to me a few times, can I still have this Taoist temple?

"No, everyone, I am really a Taoist!"

The middle-aged man wanted to save it, but obviously, those people ignored him at all, pushed him aside, and walked in.

But what reassured him was that although these people were a bit rude, everyone was cautious when they entered. Obviously, when they were not sure, these people still thought that this place was a Taoist temple.

"The statue of Sanqing is enshrined here!"

At this moment, someone exclaimed, they didn't see the shining golden Buddha statue, but they saw three statues of Sanqing made out of mud.

As soon as these words came out, everyone put away the laughing expressions on their faces, and immediately looked solemn and solemn, and even became cautious when walking.

Then everyone looked up together, and saw that in the innermost part, it was a shrine, and there was a statue of the Sanqing God on it. They just wanted to compare it with the shining golden Buddha statue. The statue of the Sanqing God looked a little miserable.

Because it is made of mud!

"Look, this is the Taoist Sanqing. Look at the so-called Buddha, Misty Grass, each of which has a golden body, even Bodhisattvas and Arhats have golden bodies, and the Taoist Sanqing is the highest position? It’s made of mud, isn’t the gap too big?”

"No, as a Taoist Sanqing, how can it be so miserable? We have to contribute, to atone for our sins, we must donate money!"

"Yes, those who have no money donate less, and those who have money donate more. We must replace our Master Sanqing with a good place!"

After seeing Ni Sanqing, everyone immediately exploded with anger. Isn't this so unfair?

Why do those outsiders in Buddhism have golden bodies, while the highest Taoists are just made of mud?

Therefore, everyone has to donate money to replace Master Sanqing with a good place. At the very least, this body must be replaced with the best materials!

The middle-aged Taoist priest was always worried, for fear that these guys would smash the Taoist temple.

But now, he stared blankly at this group of people. At first, he thought this group of people were hideous, but now, it smells so good!

These people are simply the cutest people in the world!

I saw this group of lovely people coming in front of them one after another. Everyone took out banknotes from their sleeves. The denominations were different, but he could feel that this was their intention!

"Taoist, you are very good. In such a difficult environment, you can still persevere. It shows how firmly you are in Taoism!"

"Yeah, it's not easy for you. These are our thoughts. Next time, we don't want to see such a difficult environment, especially the statue of Sanqing, which is the highest god of Taoism. Look at what has become now What does it look like?"

Everyone nodded in unison, and even expressed sympathy for the middle-aged Taoist priest.

Taoist priest:"."

He was very moved. He thought it was a bit too much when he heard this group of people smashing the temple.

But think about it now, if Buddhism hadn't gone too far, would this group of lovely people have done that?

Obviously, no!

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at the bank notes in his hand. The sum of these coins was enough to renovate the Taoist temple from the inside to the outside, and there was even a lot left.

"Okay, work hard, you are the last one here, and I want to tell you some good news, that is, the entire temple in Tang Dynasty has been smashed by us, you should know how to do it?"

Everyone looked at the Taoist priest who was about to cry, and comforted him with a smile.

Hearing this, the Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes burst into a strange light. He naturally knew what this sentence meant. Obviously, now that all the temples in the Tang Dynasty are gone, their Taoist temples are about to take off!

Although Taoism was well-known in the Tang Dynasty in the past, Buddhism has become more and more prosperous because of Tang Sanzang's learning of scriptures in recent years, so Taoism seems a bit weak.

But now, the opportunity has come!

"Pindao naturally understands!"

The Taoist priest nodded with a serious expression on his face.

"Hehe, then we can rest assured, okay, let's leave now!"

Seeing the appearance of the Taoist priest, everyone immediately laughed.

This day can be said to be a disaster day for the entire Tang Temple, because basically all the temples were not smashed, and the voices of crying father and mother sounded from everywhere.

The most disturbing thing is that there are too many of those people. As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, and Li Shimin deliberately favors those who make troubles. In the end, those who caused troubles were not punished too severely. At most, they were closed for a few days. .

"Hahaha, it's really fun! I'm making Buddhism arrogant, now I know someone will punish them!"

Inside the Tang Palace, Li Shimin looked excited. Before, he could not do anything about Buddhism. Even if he wanted to eradicate the influence of Buddhism, he had too much power, and he, a mortal emperor, did not dare to act rashly.

But it's different now, he didn't do anything, but those ordinary mortals did it, even if the Buddhist master wanted to investigate, there was nothing he could do.

"Your Majesty, this time Buddhism is in a slump. Now is the time to tell Mr. Qin Hao the news!"

Beside, Empress Changsun smiled softly.

"No, no, it's far from the time yet. Although the Buddhist forces in the Tang Dynasty have disappeared, the Buddhist forces in other countries have not been eliminated. I think we can take this opportunity to get rid of those things!"

Li Shimin shook his head when he heard the words, his eyes shone brightly.

In the mythical world, the competition between theocracy and imperial power begins here!
