Chapter 87 Venerable Fusheng
Zhou Zhilu's heart trembled when he heard this. He originally thought that the so-called new Buddhism was just a new interpretation and new branch of Buddhist philosophy.
But now it seems that if Buddhism in the past showed the world mostly the kindness of a bodhisattva, then what this Venerable Fusheng wants to show is the wrath of Vajra.
I only heard Venerable Fusheng slowly say: "When I was traveling down the mountain, I rescued an elderly couple and their daughter.
“They asked me how to express their gratitude, and I pointed out the nearest temple to them, saying that burning a stick of incense would be enough.
“Three years later, when I passed by there again, I couldn’t find the family. After checking, I discovered that the temple was actually a fake one!
"They used money and connections to gain access to the temple, and under the pretext of Buddha's blessing, they wantonly insulted hundreds of female believers who came to worship.
"And that girl also lost her life because of my guidance. The abbot of the temple then used the girl's name to defraud the elderly couple of their wealth, causing them to commit suicide..."
Venerable Fusheng took a deep breath and said, "Amitabha, I flattened that mountain range, but no matter how profound my Buddhist teachings are, I cannot save those who have passed away.
"From then on, I understood that Buddhism was originally founded to save people from suffering, so naturally, a compassionate heart was needed. But the world is different now. What is needed is the wrath of a diamond!"
Zhou Zhilu was silent for a long time. In his opinion, the new and old laws of Buddhism were ultimately just internal matters of Buddhism.
What he cared about was whether Venerable Fusheng had chosen inappropriate means to achieve this goal, such as... relying on the power of Gu E.
After careful consideration, he said, "Your Excellency, whether it is a new law or an old law, its original intention is to serve the people. Don't let evil forces taint this original good intention."
Venerable Fusheng showed no sign of confusion, but said softly, "Power has no good or evil. My mind is my Dharma."
After saying that, Fusheng waved his hand towards Zhou Zhilu, and a golden Buddha light instantly penetrated into Zhou Zhilu's body.
Zhou Zhilu was shocked and hurriedly stepped back to check his body, but found that there was nothing wrong with the Buddha's light, it was just healing the injuries in his body.
Zhou Zhilu looked up in surprise, only to find that Venerable Fusheng had already turned and left.
"Amitabha……"
With the chanting of Buddha's name by Venerable Fusheng, a transparent film covering the two people dissipated.
Only then did Zhou Zhilu realize that the conversation between the two had been covered up long ago.
Judging from the conversation just now, Venerable Fusheng is probably already relying on the power of Gu'e.
But...why did he come all the way to say these things to me?
The other party should have known that Zhou Zhilu and others were investigating this matter. Was he suddenly revealing himself at this time as a provocation?
Even if I expose myself, you can't do anything to me?
Zhou Zhilu shook his head. Judging from the fact that the other party treated him, he didn't think that Venerable Fusheng was such a boring person... But it was possible that he was a Buddhist disciple.
After this incident, Zhou Zhilu didn't have much energy to continue waiting here. He just wanted to go back and discuss the matter of Venerable Fusheng with Lord Wu Hou, Fusu and others.
When he reached the twenty-seventh floor of Mount Lingshan, he happened to see Fusu arguing with a group of people.
Opposite Fusu, there were two human youths, a gray-skinned Rock Tribe member, and a Shura Tribe member with six arms.
It's actually one against four?!
Seeing this, Zhou Zhilu hurried over.
"Fusu, my request is not high. Fight with me. No matter whether you win or lose, I will never come to you again. How about it?"
One of the young men, wearing a blue robe and holding a long sword, spoke aggressively.
Fusu was displeased: "You say to fight? Who do you think you are? In two days, the Buddhist and Taoist discussions will begin. During this period, I will not fight with anyone else. Please go back."
A young man from the Shura tribe interrupted, "Want to discuss the Dao with a Buddhist disciple? That depends on whether you have the ability. Fight me first. If you lose, don't embarrass yourself in the Buddhist world and go back to your Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible."
Fusu frowned and was about to retort when Zhou Zhilu's voice suddenly came.
"If I heard correctly, this Shura clan member probably just said to go back to your Song Dynasty, right?
"Hiss~ From what you said, it seems you don't belong to the Great Song Dynasty? I wonder if you represent the Shura clan or the Buddhist world?"
Zhou Zhilu slowly walked over and stood beside Fusu. He looked at the Shura man and said grimly, "But no matter who you represent, I'm afraid there won't be enough heads to chop off. You'd better think before you speak next time."
The Shura tribe member looked at Zhou Zhilu with a frosty expression, but he also knew that his previous words were problematic. He turned and asked, "Huh, who are you?"
Zhou Zhilu ignored him and looked at Fusu curiously: "What have you done that has angered heaven and man? Why are so many people coming to attack you?"
Fusu said angrily: "How should I know? This group of people suddenly said they wanted to challenge me for no reason. I was wondering."
However, Fusu said that, but judging from the fact that he was unwilling to take action from beginning to end, it shows that the people in front of him are probably quite powerful and cannot be solved with just one palm.
Zhou Zhilu clasped his fists and said, "I am a Sixth-Rank Night Guard, Zhou Zhilu. May I know your names?"
A young human wearing a khaki short-sleeved shirt on the outermost side quickly took a step back, waved his hand and said, "Uh, don't get me wrong, I'm just here to watch the fun, I don't want to fight.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Lu Chuan, the fifth best man in the capital. I had the honor of sparring with Brother Fusu before."
