Taoist Zi Jin seized the opportunity and unveiled the plan he had conspired with Zhang Fan!
However, he did not tell the solution directly, but used an indirect and infiltrating method to let the prince and Niu Qing think about it themselves!
In this way, the karma that Taoist Zi Jin would be involved in would not be great, but the benefits that he could gain for the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth would still be considerable.
Li Chengqian frowned slightly, looking a little excited.
"Master Zijin, do you have a solution?"
Niu Qing, who was kneeling on the ground, stood up, patted his knees, and suddenly reminded.
"Your Highness, although we are still fighting for the human race...but whether it is the Purple Gold Taoist, Your Highness, or me, Niu Qing! We are no longer in the same camp. The Purple Gold Taoist's method may be useful, but Your Highness, I am afraid you will have to give up a lot."
Crown Prince Li Chengqian was even more confused. Everyone was fighting for the human race, so what was the harm even if they belonged to different camps?
Moreover, their common goal is to make the human race stronger. So, as a member of the royal family, what must he give up?
So he was full of doubts and looked at Taoist Zi Jin with deep inquiry.
"Your Highness, although the Three Realms today are not a place where many heroes compete with each other, there are some powerful people who intend to take advantage of the opportunity to soar to the sky. And the Buddhist sect has been testing the bottom line of the human race and the pawnshop of heaven and earth! Even though they paid a lot, they got everything they wanted. Compared with the major forces in the Three Realms, the human dynasty is not as stable as it used to be. Prince, you need to find a backer!"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyes twitched and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Taoist Zi Jin's words were very simple. With the humble strength of the human race, they are no match for any force in the Three Realms.
Or, join the saint's sect!
That is to say, to become someone who advances and retreats together with Niu Qing!
This will take time for Niu Qing to grow up, and the Tang Dynasty must also endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens! Wait until the saint has mercy, wait until the saint has compassion.
As for the other way, it is to advance and retreat together with the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth!
This road is extremely dangerous, and more importantly, it requires a very high threshold.
The owner of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth has a high-profile style of doing things, and now, with the support of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, the Dishu Realm has become a famous super sect in the Three Realms.
It can be said that it is a gathering place for all walks of life, and heroes do not care about their backgrounds and teach everyone!
If you join the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, then the Tang Dynasty will have to open its city gates, exchange what it has with the demon clan, the witch clan, and even the devil clan, and become allies.
By then, the human race will be weak and powerless! I am afraid that they will be replaced by stronger ones and become subordinates of other races.
Comparing the two, of course he felt a chill in his heart.
"Your Highness, we don't have time to think about it." Niu Qing sighed, "This time, it seems that we have survived this crisis, but if Your Highness is willing to go outside the city, you will see the hardship and helplessness of the people of the Tang Dynasty! This time, the ancient monster rebellion has turned big cities into small cities, and small cities into small towns, while those towns and villages are either intact or completely destroyed! This is the vitality of the human race of the Great Commercial."
Niu Qing's tone was filled with deep hatred, and a sense of powerlessness as if he had lost strength.
This is not a natural disaster or man-made calamity, it is just some ancient demons that have broken through the seal. For practitioners, this is not a disaster at all!
But for the human race, it has dealt a heavy blow.
No one will sympathize with the suffering of humanity; everything depends entirely on humanity’s own strength.
As a member of the Tang Dynasty royal family, the step you take now is of utmost importance!
It also determines whether the human race will be headed for destruction or rebirth.
"Your Highness, I know it's difficult for you to make a decision. So I won't force you to give an answer immediately!" The eyes of the Purple Gold Taoist flashed. The merits of the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop and the benefits it gained! He had already helped to plan it out.
Next, it's time to think about himself.
So he continued, "Your Highness, you must know that the spread of Buddhism to the East is the guidance of Heaven! No matter how we try to stop it, it will all come true in the end. But the Buddhist sect is not easy to talk to. Their purpose has long been clear! Everyone knows it. So if Your Highness can't make a decision, there is a trade-off!"
Niu Qing was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth but stopped talking!
He thought that Taoist Zijin was forcing Li Chengqian to make a decision, but he didn't expect that Taoist Zijin would be so devoted. If Li Chengqian made a choice, his mission would be accomplished! Why not live happily in the three realms from now on?
But... he provided another way, which shows that he still has some sincerity towards the human race and Li Chengqian.
When Li Chengqian heard what Taoist Zijin said, his eyes, which had been dim, lit up again!
"Zi Jin Taoist, the saint is far away in the sky. Although no one in the Three Realms dares to provoke him, he is too far away to reach you. Water from afar cannot quench a nearby fire."
When Li Chengqian finished speaking, Taoist Zijin raised his eyebrows! The prince had already given him the answer, but it was obviously not time to collude with the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop.
"Master Zijin, tell me your other idea. Don't worry, as long as we can help the human race get rid of the threat of Buddhism and settle down temporarily, I will definitely persuade my father to stand together with the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth."
Taoist Zijin nodded slightly: "Okay, I believe you!"
Niu Qing rolled his eyes. He had little patience with the prince's indecision. Since he had already made up his mind, why bother thinking about it day and night and looking back and forth?
It makes people anxious!
However, Niu Qing also understood that this matter was too complex and the prince could not make a rash decision.
"My other method is the Hundred Schools of Thought mentioned before! The prince should know that these Hundred Schools of Thought have been flourishing since ancient times! Although there are few true orthodox traditions, there are still descendants alive today. The Hundred Schools of Thought have always believed in their own academic disciplines, but they are never exclusive! Compared with Buddhism, open competition and covert scramble are more important to make the road to glory for the human race broad and bright! Therefore, the prince should take time to go to the Earth Book Realm."
"The Hundred Schools of Thought?" Li Chengqian opened his mouth, his eyes flickering, and he was a little hesitant.
"Your Highness, this is the only possible solution! After Buddhism spread to the East, it is not just one more school of thought! If we don't save it now, when Buddhism takes over the Tang Dynasty, does the prince really think that there will be other schools of thought in the human race besides Buddhism?"
"Niu Qing is right. The prince has never traveled in the Three Realms, so he doesn't know what happened in the countries near the Western Heaven! The only country worth citing is the Baoxiang Kingdom... The king of the Baoxiang Kingdom is a puppet of Buddhism. The whole country trusts Buddhism and worships Buddhism, but as far as I know, the country that suffered the most casualties and suffered the greatest losses during the ancient demon rebellion was the Baoxiang Kingdom."
