Chapter 526: Revenge when revenge is needed, grievance when grievance is needed, it's not that
Chapter 526: Revenge when revenge is needed, grievance when grievance is needed, it's not that I won't take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet
The so-called fighting without breaking, of course, means stepping on the opponent's bottom line repeatedly, being a thorn in each other's eyes and a thorn in the flesh, and laughing at the other party's dislike of themselves but unable to get rid of themselves.
"Master, go back and tell the Buddha that if he cannot tolerate me and has evil thoughts, come and kill me!"
Wen Rui's expression became serious, and he said word by word, "But he can't just kill me. He has to kill all my followers in the mortal world as well as all the mortals who have watched and spread those movies and TV shows."
"It is more difficult to stop the people from talking than to stop the river from flowing. If he thinks that his big palm can cover the sky and stop the people from talking, then he should give it a try!"
"Otherwise, you'd better clean up the mess and conduct an internal cleansing campaign with all your might, using drastic measures to purge the scum from the Buddhist sect."
At this point, Wen Rui calmed down, looked directly into the eyes of Taoist Duobao, and said, "Everything I do is to stand on the side of sentient beings. Which side are you on? Sentient beings or Buddhist scum? If one day, justice is fully upheld in the land ruled by Western religions, evil laws and evil ways are eliminated, and the humblest slaves can also be bathed in the Buddha's light, it is not because the Buddha has awakened, but because I have been here!"
Wen Rui's last sentence was so powerful that Taoist Duobao couldn't help but be moved, and his hand that was tightly holding the Earth-Splitting Bead slowly loosened.
"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. If you want to sit firmly on the moral high ground and despise all stupidity and dullness, then don't blame others for looking at you through a magnifying glass."
Wen Rui picked up the Earth-Splitting Bead and put it into his pocket with a clear conscience: "The three demons of Lion Camel Ridge have been wreaking havoc for no less than a hundred years and have eaten no less than a hundred thousand people. The five hundred Arhats didn't go to catch them earlier or later, but chose to join in the fun when I went to catch them. Just for this, I have whipped them for a year for dereliction of duty. This beating is not unjust, I even think it is too light."
Taoist Duobao remained silent, nodded, and with a wave of his robe sleeves, more than four hundred Arhat shackles hanging on the Immortal Locking Pillar were removed and fell to the ground one after another.
There was not a single scar on Luohan's body, but his mental state was on the verge of collapse.
The severe pain caused by Xia Yi's soul-stirring needles could make even the most lustful pervert stay away from the fairies, and they would retract their hands in pain at the mere touch. If they were treated as a form of punishment and whipped continuously for twelve hours a day, even the strongest King Kong would not be able to withstand it.
The scattered eyes of the Venerable Araka Kaundinya gradually focused, and he saw the Taoist Duobao in front of him clearly. He quickly put his palms together in respect and said, "Disciple pays homage to the Buddha Duobao. Please make the decision for us, Your Excellency..."
"No need to say more, follow me back to Lingshan."
Taoist Duobao said expressionlessly: "You all should take care of yourselves. When you go back, you must not have any resentful thoughts or revengeful intentions. If you cause trouble again, you will bear the consequences yourself!"
After reprimanding the aggrieved monks, Taoist Duobao raised his hand and a portal appeared out of thin air. This gate seemed to be taken from a pagoda. The archway slowly opened and led into the pagoda.
The arhats supported each other and followed the Venerable Arahant Kāśyapa, walking dejectedly towards the archway.
Wen Rui took a step forward and stood in front of the Arhats.
"look at me!"
He shouted loudly, and all the monks looked up in the direction of the sound, staring at him with complicated eyes.
"Remember my appearance, and also remember my name. I am Wen Rui, the Great Emperor Jie Tian. You must recognize me."
Wen Rui had a cold face and spoke calmly, as if he was stating a simple fact: "If you are dissatisfied, angry, or resentful towards me, you can come and seek revenge on me. If you are afraid that you cannot defeat me, go back and cry to your fellow disciples, masters, and fellow Taoists, and invite them to come with their families, and find a good opportunity to ambush and attack me. Perhaps there is still a chance to avenge your previous humiliation."
"Do you understand? I'm looking forward to your sweet revenge. I hope you can give me a little surprise."
All the Arhats lowered their heads, looked at their mouths with their noses and their hearts with their mouths, and chanted the Heart Sutra.
Venerable Araka Kaundinya clasped his hands together, bowed and said: "Your words are so hurtful that they destroy people's moral integrity and sow the seeds of evil. Those with strong minds will become angry and lose their virtues, while those with weak minds will become ignorant and lose their wisdom." He turned around and looked at the monks. Seeing that they were as quiet as chickens, he sighed secretly and turned back again: "We dare not offend the emperor again, and we will never have any angry or foolish thoughts. Please move aside and make way for us to return."
"Next time I give you a chance, remember to seize it in time. This time you have done the right thing. For the sake of my great master, this is only a minor punishment."
Wen Rui then reluctantly moved his feet and left the blocked door, but he also stared with wide eyes at the Arhats who walked past him with their heads lowered.
It seemed as if he was waiting for some unhappy person to look up and look back at him.
Taoist Duobao watched coldly without saying a word. When all the Arhats had entered the gate, he followed them in. After entering the gate, he turned around, looked at Wenrui, and said in a slow voice:
"In a quiet place, cultivate and control your mind, and remain still, like Mount Sumeru."
After leaving this verse, he closed the door. In an instant, the pagoda disappeared and the cell was empty again.
"Alas, I will have to enter permanent stealth mode again from now on."
Wen Rui's stern and majestic face collapsed, and he muttered in a hoarse voice: "Being on guard against being hit by a club has almost become an indispensable part of my life.
It is normal for Wen Rui to act majestically in front of people but sweat profusely behind their backs.
To offend the abbot is more dangerous than to offend the demon. It doesn't matter whether Wen Rui is important to the Western religion now, but he is very important to Tathagata.
Such domineering behavior has changed his principle of making a fortune in silence, but times are different now.
A snake cannot survive without a head, a bird cannot fly without wings. All the gods in heaven are counting on others to take up the Eagle brand's banner, but with Wen Rui's deception skills, it is totally impossible to do so.
The fine tradition of Taoism that a fellow Taoist would rather die than live has been perfectly inherited and carried forward even by those who have become immortals.
The gods' tendency to seek profit and avoid harm, and to avoid disasters have evolved into survival instincts after experiencing countless disasters and have been engraved into the steel stamp of their thoughts. Their enterprising spirit and creativity are far inferior to those of Western religions.
If you want to provoke a war between gods and Buddhas, you can only ask your strategists to take part in the game and win half the battle.
The risks are naturally huge. Wen Rui must be prepared to be robbed by the three great Bodhisattvas Manjusri, Guanyin and Samantabhadra suddenly jumping out while he is eating hot pot and singing.
However, the bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish.
If the normal trend of the Heavenly Dao, which is the rise of Western religions, is curbed, the Jie Religion will surely replace it.
The disciples of Jiejiao who are down-to-earth are a hundred times more capable of changing the world than the Western monks who are good at talking and can only advise people to find joy in misery.
By then, as long as Wen Rui is not killed by Tathagata, the system task of reviving the Jiejiao will definitely be completed.
Next, the only problem is how to avoid being killed by Tathagata and survive until the task progress bar is full.
Wen Rui took out the Earth-Splitting Bead and played with it in his palm.
