Chapter 712: Poaching Successfully, but Only Half Successful
Rebirth in the Pure Land is the biggest carrot used by Western religions to attract believers.
Its attraction to believers is second only to suffering in this life and accumulating blessings to enjoy happiness after reincarnation.
Kong Xuan was disappointed when faced with this question. He shook his head and said, "Only Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, Dharma Protectors, and great monks are qualified to go to the Land of Bliss. I have made an exception for the more than 30 family members. Otherwise, even the mother of the Buddha's direct disciple can only enjoy the benefit of being lifted out of hell."
"Then how can the people of Xiniu Hezhou who believe in Western religion survive this disaster?"
Wen Rui's divine clone pretended to be surprised and asked, "Are we just going to watch them get sucked dry? No way, no way, the compassionate Buddhas and Bodhisattvas won't be so cold-blooded, right?"
"If you are sincere, you can be reborn in paradise after death..."
Kong Xuan argued in a low voice.
"What if you can't live and you can't die?"
Wen Rui broke the news: "The Taoist Mosquito has mastered the technology of gene modification and modulation. As smart as he is, he will not kill people to get their blood. It is not cost-effective. He will definitely transform the Western Religion human believers in Xiniu Hezhou into immobile long-lived blood cows, feed them to keep them immortal, and draw blood regularly."
"It is not impossible to create an immortal blood cow using genetic technology, such as introducing lobster genes and box jellyfish genes..."
"Tsk tsk, that feeling is probably not much better than suffering in hell."
Wen Rui smacked his lips and said with a tut-tut sound: "The butterfly witch's magical power of bewitching can also distort the cognition of living beings, causing people's three views to be distorted and common sense to be misplaced on the spot, and they will immediately fall into the devil's way and never be able to be reborn."
"Where is the chance to be reborn in paradise?"
Kong Xuan had no more excuses and was embarrassed on the spot. According to what Wen Rui said, the way the Western religion handled this matter was really a bit unkind.
Although Kong Xuan could also understand that there was a reason why the Buddha did not allow people with impure minds and who had not reached perfection to enter the Pure Land, the Pure Land was a world where matter and spirit were integrated. If a large amount of impure spiritual energy rashly poured in, the foundation that maintained the Pure Land would be shaken. In serious cases, the entire world might collapse.
If the Pure Land collapsed and the Western religion lost its last piece of pure land, that would be a true disaster that would destroy the religion.
Choosing the lesser of two evils is something that can be tolerated in the Dharma Ending Age. Sacrificing several generations of believers in the mortal world to endure the sufferings of hell is also something that cannot be accepted. Who told those believers to be insincere?
Buddha saves those who are destined to be saved. We can only say that these unlucky believers have no chance of reaching the Pure Land, and they cannot blame others.
But this is the truth, but it doesn't sound the same when Wen Rui says it.
Compared with the spirit of Jiejiao, who would rather die than give life to all living beings in the mortal world, it always feels inferior and not as great and glorious as advertised.
"It's the old saying again: I'm not afraid of opponents who are like monsters, but I'm afraid of teammates who are like pigs." Wen Rui's clone shook his head and sighed in disappointment: "Nuwa and Buddha are holding me back. If my plan is not fully implemented, it's the same as not being implemented at all."
"The Great Zhou Dynasty has a population of tens of millions, and Xiniu Hezhou also has a population of tens of millions. They won't allow me to dehydrate, and I will be left to the Blood Sea Demon Clan as military rations. This battle to defend the mortal world could have killed the enemy within a year, but now it seems that it can only be a long tug-of-war."
"I hope that when I drain the rivers, lakes and seas and the water resources in the three realms are insufficient, the breeding rate of the demon mosquitoes can be effectively suppressed."
"But they have 20 million human food reserves. Even if there is no water to breed new mosquitoes, they can support it for a very long time."
At this point, Wen Rui stepped forward and patted Kong Xuan on the back, as if to comfort him: "Brother Kong, don't worry, no matter what the outcome of the mortal defense war is, the safety of your wife, children, and all the dehydrated creatures in the warehouse can be guaranteed. Even if I die in the battle, this Jinchuang Island has been fully transformed into a space fortress, equipped with a super-giant jump engine, which can jump out of this secret realm and hide in the boundless star realm."
"This is the 'Wandering Golden Turtle' plan. As long as they find a habitable planet in the star realm, they can settle down and continue the Jiejiao civilization. Sooner or later, when technology has reached a certain level, they will return to the mortal world and take back everything they have lost!"
"You should go back first and wait patiently in Paradise. In a hundred years at the least, or three thousand years at the most, you will be able to reunite with your family again."
Kong Xuan shook his head heavily, but reached out and pressed Wen Rui's shoulder: "Boy, your father's brilliance was too dazzling before, and I never looked at you straight in the eye. I got to know you during this period of time, and I had a deep misunderstanding at first, but slowly I saw your true character."
Hearing him speak so emotionally, Wen Rui couldn't help feeling a little guilty, thinking to himself, "Don't really see through my true character. I'm really not a good person!"
"Five hundred years ago, I had a good impression of the fellow Daoists of Jiejiao. Although they all had their flaws, they were all sincere and genuine people. Fighting alongside them was such a pleasure!"
Kong Xuan's tone was full of nostalgia, and then he looked at Wen Rui's clone with a firm gaze: "I am not a Buddha, Bodhisattva, or Arhat. I don't understand the emptiness of form, emptiness, and reality. I can't let go of my obsessions and can't bear to leave sentient beings. I only know that the mortal world is my birthplace. Here are my family members who I care about, and there is also a successor to the will of Jiejiao who is willing to devote his life to protecting her."
"Brother, do you need help? Goddess Nuwa won't agree, right? You take me and your brother to go find her. I may not be able to defeat the saint who killed three corpses, but the saint of merit can still beat her!"
The surprise came too suddenly, and Wen Rui was a little uncomfortable for a moment. He waved his hands and said, "This is not good. After all, Nuwa is the mother of the human race. Last time I went to see her, I said a few wrong words and was almost expelled from the human race. It was a very bad situation... It would be very impolite for our local gang to knock on her door rashly."
"She's spoiled! We the Peacock Clan are known as the mother of Buddha, and I don't run to Buddha every day to force him to call me mom!"
Kong Xuan waved his hand domineeringly: "For the merit of creating human beings, the Heaven has already rewarded her with canonization. Does she really regard the human race as her private property? In terms of age and seniority, your eldest brother is no lower than her. If you are not convenient to say it, I will say it!"
"Then what about the Western religion..."
Seeing that his deception was successful, Wen Rui couldn't help but go further and continued to set up the seedlings.
"Uh……"
Kong Xuan paused, then smiled and said, "It's not that I'm afraid of Tathagata, it's just that my status is awkward and I can't get angry. Also, it's said that one of the two saints of the Western religion is living in seclusion in the mortal world. If we start a fight and alarm the saint, it won't end well."
"Well..." Wen Rui rolled his eyes at him and sighed, "This is another incomplete implementation. It's better not to implement it at all. There's not much difference between 10 million and 20 million, because humans can quickly breed artificially. If all the people can't be dehydrated, half of the 10 million people can be used as blood cattle to supplement military rations, and the other half can be used as breeding cattle. With the help of petri dish cloning technology, a large number of new populations can be born in a few years."
