Chapter 1166 The Mother of God
Chu Huan smiled bitterly and said, "In this way, the King of Xichang, who was missing back then, hid here." He sighed, "To be honest, this is really an excellent hiding place." Then he said in confusion: "Since you are hiding here, why are there so many dead bodies outside? Could it be... the Qin army finally found this hiding place?"
Liuli shook her head and said, "I won't know anymore. I remember my father said that the Qin army attacked Shuoquan for several months. Although the Xichang army resisted desperately, it still could not withstand the Qin army's strong attack... My father also said that when Shuoquan was surrounded, the one who commanded Xichang's troops was Yun Dingtian. Just when Shuoquan was about to fall, the King of Xichang even personally climbed the city to boost morale... After the Qin army captured Shuoquan, in order not to let the King of Xichang escape, the city gate was sealed. Although it was a mess, no one could go out. However, the King of Xichang and many civil and military officials in Xichang disappeared. They were like evaporating from the world. The Qin army spent energy and finally it was difficult to find their traces."
"The King of Xichang will not live without seeing anyone or corpses, so the emperor will naturally feel uneasy." Chu Huan sighed softly.
A snake cannot do without a head, but if it leaves the leader, it is possible to make a comeback at any time. His Majesty the Emperor naturally does not allow such a thing to happen.
"At that time, except for the King of Xichang and the Prince of Lu escaped after the city was broken, the other princes were all captured by the Qin army." Liuli's voice was very soft, and she recalled the past, "After the Prince of Lu escaped, he even made a comeback, and once joined forces with the Western Tang that had not yet fallen to counterattack the Qin army. Unfortunately, the Western Tang was unable to fight again. The King of Xitang went out of the city to invest, and the Prince of Lu's army was disbanded and could only retreat westward. Feng Hanxiao personally led thousands of troops to chase and finally captured the Prince of Lu, and in accordance with the will of the emperor, Lingchi was executed...!" Speaking of this, a strange color flashed through Liuli's eyes, and his blue eyes were deep. Chu Huan could not detect the strange color flashing by. Only Liuli's gentle and gentle voice continued: "The Prince of Lu is dead, and the only hidden danger in the northwest is the King of Xichang, who is hard to find."
Chu Huanqi said: "As a matter of this, until today, the court has never known that King Xichang is here?"
"If I knew that the remains of King Xichang would not be preserved so intact." Liuli sighed quietly: "The battle here has been many years since the present... Gongfu, in your opinion, what would the battle in the stone chamber outside be like?"
Chu Huan said: "I always feel that since there is a stone gate where there is a man who can pass through thousands of men, it should be difficult for the enemy to attack. If it is really an enemy who kills in... Well, the remains of King Xichang are still impossible to be so complete."
Liuli tilted her head slightly and said, "What Gongfu said is very true, so Liuli thought that this stone chamber was indeed a fierce battle, but... it was not necessarily caused by the enemy."
"Madam means...!" Chu Huan was thinking, then his body shook and understood, "Can... the subordinates of King Xichang kill each other?"
Liuli sighed: "This can only be our guess. What is going on? The past has been covered with dust for a long time, and I'm afraid no one can tell us."
Chu Huan also sighed, then frowned and asked, "Madam, Yao Weng set up a mechanism to let us fall into this grotto. Is it just to let us discover this dusty past?" He said in surprise: "If this is the case, Yao Weng must know the existence of this secret. What is the relationship with the King of Xichang? He lived in Yao Gu for a long time, did he really study medicinal materials here, or did he use this as a cover to protect this secret?" He stared at Liuli, "What's even more strange is why Yao Weng wants to tell Mrs. Yu now? What's the connection between the madam and this dusty secret?"
Liuli shook her head, and her beautiful face was also confused, "I don't know why Yao Weng... Did he just want me to know that there was this past?" It felt unreasonable. If Yao Weng really protected this secret here, then it would be impossible to easily inform outsiders of this secret, but now he wants to reveal it to Liuli, and Liuli seems to have nothing to do with Xichang Country, so everything becomes more confusing.
Chu Huan was also confused, and his eyes moved to the peacock's screen picture on the wall, and finally asked: "Madam seems to know the origin of this painting."
When he asked this, his heart had already raised it. This peacock picture has always been an unsolvable mystery in Chu Huan's heart. It involves a lot of things and is unsolvable.
He was afraid that Liuli would shake his head, so the secret would inevitably be confused, but when he saw Liuli's eyes slightly and his head slightly dotted, Chu Huan suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Madam really knows the origin of this picture."
Liuli thought for a moment, and she frowned and thoughtful expression, and was extremely beautiful. Soon, Liuli said: "Prince Fu knows the Buddha Sect, so how many sects does the Buddha Sect divide into?"
Chu Huan thought that this painting was indeed related to the Buddhist sect, and said solemnly: "As far as I know, there are Zen and Tantric sects."
"The Gongfu said it right." Liuli said softly: "People in Middle Earth do know that the Buddha sect are divided into Zen and Tantric Buddhism. The main thing that is spread in Middle Earth is Zen. The Tantric Buddhism was originally spread in the northwest, but Tantric Buddhism is far from the influence of Zen in Middle Earth...!" After a pause, he asked again: "Then does Gongfu know that there are other sects in Buddhism besides Zen and Tantric Buddhism?"
Chu Huan was silent for a moment and asked back, "Madam, is it that there are other sects in Buddhism besides Zen and Tantric Buddhism?"
Liuli nodded and said, "That's right, it's just that another sect has never spread to the Middle Earth, so people in the Central Plains know very little, even those in Buddhists may not know it."
"See your advice!"
"Daxin Sect!" Liuli said slowly: "Your Mahjong is unknown. In addition to the Great Zen, Great Tantric Sect, and the other branch of the Buddha Sect is the Great Heart Sect founded by the Great Polo layman!"
Chu Huan sighed in his heart, how could I not only have the Daxin Sect? If I really want to say that Master Gui is a disciple of Daxin Sect and I have the title of Master Gui and Master Gui, I can be considered a member of Daxin Sect.
"Although Daxin Sect is very little known in the Central Plains, it has many believers in the Western Regions...!" Liuli said slowly, thinking about it, "Buddhist Zen Buddhism first had believers in the Central Plains, and then it was Tantric Buddhism. However, Daxin Sect is different from Zen Buddhism and Tantric Buddhism. Since the Central Plains has been occupied by Zen Buddhism and Tantric Buddhism, the Xin Sect has not spread to the east."
“The doctrine is different?”
Liuli sighed, "Actually, this is also what I know from my father. I don't know very well. I just know that Daxin Sect is much more mysterious than Zen and Tantric Sects. Moreover, Xin Sect takes the Dharma protector as the foundation, and the Dharma protector is mainly based on cultivation...!" He frowned slightly and said, "Liuli doesn't know much, but as far as I know, after Xin Sect has many believers in the Western Regions, because the Western Liang had not blocked the business route and there was still trade between the Western Regions and the Central Plains, the merchants in the Western Regions began to spread the teachings of Daxin Sect to the east...!"
"But the people in the Central Plains have hardly heard of the existence of the Daxin Sect. Has it not been introduced to the Central Plains at all?" Chu Huan asked.
"The spread of Buddhism in the east is a very difficult thing, not to mention that the Zen teachings taught earlier have been accepted by people on the way to the east. It is not easy to spread a new teaching." Liuli shook his head and sighed: "The original purpose of those merchants is not to spread the Dharma, but to do business. Therefore, although the teachings of the Daxin Sect were brought to the east by merchants many years ago, few people could accept the Daxin Sect. Until then, the Daxin Sect sent disciples to follow the caravan to spread the Dharma, gradually developing believers to the east. According to my father, the Buddhists of the Daxin Sect were about to step into the Middle Earth to spread the Dharma, but when they passed on the Xin Sect Buddhism to the Xiliang territory after a long period of hard work, the Western Liang had become the most powerful country in the west, and they also blocked the business paths between the Western Regions and the Middle Earth, and at the same time prevented the Xin Sect from continuing to advance eastward..."
Chu Huan suddenly realized and understood, "Madam, the footprints of Buddhists in Daxin Sect's teachings came to abruptly when they arrived in Xiliang?"
Liuli nodded and said, "Father said this back then, it should be like this. My father said that there should be many believers of the Xin Sect in Xiliang, but Qin and Xiliang have always had evil things and know very little about each other. Now, no one knows how many believers of the Xin Sect are in Xiliang." His eyes finally turned to the peacock's screen map and said softly: "And this peacock picture is the god of the Xin Sect!"
"God?"
Liuli nodded and said, "Do you know about the great peacock king?"
Chu Huan touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "It seems that he has heard of it. He only knows very little about Buddhism, so he doesn't know much."
"The Great Peacock King, also known as the Buddha Mother." Liuli stared at the peacock picture and said solemnly: "It is said that the Buddha Shakyamuni traveled to the Great Snow Mountains and was swallowed by the peacock's mouth and whale, swallowing his golden body into his belly. Shakyamuni had no choice but to break his back. Later, Shakyamuni thought of this and had a grudge in his heart and had a murderous intention. After the Bodhisattvas knew about it, they immediately persuaded that the peacock's parents were phoenixes, which were earlier than Shakyamuni's becoming a Buddha. Moreover, the peacock had the same golden-winged great roc, which was also supreme magic power. The Bodhisattvas persuaded Shakyamuni. He came out of the peacock's body and hurt his body as if he was hurting his mother. Shakyamuni then destroyed the murderous intention and appointed the Peacock as the Great Peacock King Bodhisattva!"
Chu Huan knew that there was such an allusion and nodded, "Madam means that the Great Peacock King Bodhisattva is the one who worships the Great Peacock King?"
Liuli nodded and said, "It is precisely. The Great Paladin founded the Great Heart Sect. It is said that he was enlightened by the Great Peacock King Bodhisattva, and all kinds of supernatural powers were taught by the Great Peacock King Bodhisattva. Therefore, the Great Heart Sect has always worshipped the Buddha mother, Peacock King!"
