After saying this, Fang Jian left Tongshou Mountain again and continued on to the next Taoist temple.
After visiting Kong twice in a row, Fang Jian no longer had any hope for the next temple, but he still came to the "Xiong'er Mountain" where the temple of Bodhidharma, the "Bodhisattva who saves people", was located.
"Who are you?" A young monk saw Fang Jian and immediately shouted to him.
Fang Jian bowed and said, "Please inform the Bodhisattva of the Master of Humanity that Fang Jian, the Heavenly Monarch of the Western Heaven Prefecture, has come to visit you."
"Ah?" the young monk covered his mouth in surprise and said, "You...you...you are Master Hongqing?"
Fang Jian nodded and smiled, "Exactly."
The young monk quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This humble monk pays homage to Master Hongqing."
"No need to be so polite. Is the Bodhisattva who saves people in the mountains?" Fang Jian said.
Upon hearing this, the young novice monk immediately shook his head and said, "The Bodhisattva settled in the Thirty-Six Heavens, and after establishing a temple here in Hanchong Miaocheng Heaven, he went to Jambudvīpa and has never returned."
At this point, the young novice monk continued, "If True Man Hongqing wants to see the Bodhisattva, he can go to the Buddhist country of Tianzhu in the southern continent of Jambudvīpa. The Bodhisattva is currently discussing the Dao with the Taoists there."
Discussing the Dao? Perhaps we should discuss it with fists?
However, Fang Jian's visit this time was a complete failure. The Buddhist meeting had no results. It seemed that the strategy he had reported to the Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Palace would be difficult to implement for the time being.
After leaving Xiong'er Mountain, Fang Jian rode on the Third Prince and went down to the mortal world, while wondering whether he should go to pay a visit to the last two Buddhist saints, one was the founder of the Dharma Characteristics School, Sandalwood Merit Buddha, and the other was Manjushri Bodhisattva, the founder of the Huayan School.
But after thinking about it carefully, Fang Jian gave up the idea of continuing the visit. He decided to wait for the receipt of the imperial edict first. Without the receipt, there would be no point in visiting.
"If Buddhism does not cooperate in establishing the Xiniu Hezhou Buddhist Association, then I will have to find another way." Fang Jian thought to himself.
...
But when Fang Jian entered Xuantai Pingyu Heaven from Chonghan Miaocheng Tianxia Realm, a loud voice suddenly came from behind him: "Master Hongqing, Master Hongqing, please stay."
When Fang Jian heard the cry, he immediately turned his head to look behind him, and saw a Taiyi Xuanxian in Taoist robes and with disheveled hair flying down from the sky at a rapid speed on the clouds.
"Master Quanyi?" Fang Jian looked at the Taoist priest in front of him with a hint of surprise. "Master Quanyi, why did you call me here? What advice do you have for me?"
The person who came was none other than the Taoist immortal, Quanyi Zhenren Zhang Sanfeng.
Zhang Sanfeng stopped in front of Fang Jian and smiled when he heard what Fang Jian said, "No, I dare not give instructions to Master Hongqing. I originally wanted to go to Xitian Mansion to seek an audience with Master Hongqing, but I didn't expect to see Master Hongqing right after leaving Xitian Gate. This is really a coincidence."
Fang Jian was slightly surprised when he heard this and asked, "What does Master Quanyi want from me?"
Zhang Sanfeng bowed and said, "I have a favor to ask."
Fang Jian said, "Please speak."
Zhang Sanfeng asked, "Does Master Hongqing still remember Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang?"
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Of course I remember. His disciple had an affair with a fairy and I personally arrested and executed him. What happened?"
Zhang Sanfeng sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang was struck by the Xuanjiao's annihilation spell in the Southern Continent. His entire lifelong cultivation and foundation were completely destroyed. He has almost run out of energy and is dying. However, he still has a wish that he has not yet fulfilled, so he has asked me to seek mercy from Master Hongqing."
"Oh?" Fang Jian's expression turned serious and he asked, "Why do you ask me?"
Zhang Sanfeng said, "Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang wishes to see the child before his reincarnation, but she is now imprisoned in Lei Ze, and her time limit has not yet expired. Therefore, I beg Master Hongqing to show mercy and help, and let the child come out to see fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang one last time."
"So that's how it is." Fang Jian said slowly.
Zhang Sanfeng looked at Fang Jian sincerely, then bowed and said, "Please, Master Hongqing, have mercy on me."
After hearing this, Fang Jian paused for a moment and said, "I am no longer the God of Justice. You can go to the Ministry of Thunder to ask for mercy."
Zhang Sanfeng sighed upon hearing this and said, "I have already gone to the Thunder Department to look for him, but the gods in the Thunder Department said that the criminals in Lei Ze Prison are serious criminals and cannot leave Lei Ze without the order of the Five Thunder Emperors. I went to see the Five Thunder Emperors again, but they
The Thunder Emperor refused to grant my permission, so I came to you, Master Hongqing, hoping you could help me."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian slowly said, "If the Five Thunder Emperors don't approve, it's useless for you to come to me."
Zhang Sanfeng immediately said, "I only ask for the help of Master Hongqing. Even if it fails, Daoist Yuan Tiangang will have no regrets."
Fang Jian sighed slightly upon hearing this and said, "Now that things have come to this, I'll go to the Ministry of Thunder. If the Five Thunder Emperors approve, I'll personally bring the child to see Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang. By the way, where is Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang's dojo?"
Zhang Sanfeng was delighted when he heard this and immediately said, "If True Man Hongqing takes action, it will surely be successful. Fellow Daoist Yuan Tiangang's temple is in Ganhe Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou."
"Okay." Fang Jian nodded in response.
Zhang Sanfeng bowed towards Fang Jian and said, "Thank you very much, Master Hongqing."
Fang Jian waved his hand and said, "Daoist friend, please return to Ganhe Mountain and tell Daoist friend Yuan Tiangang to hold on for at least three days."
"Okay." Zhang Sanfeng bowed and said, "Then I'll take my leave first."
After Zhang Sanfeng finished speaking, he left Xuantai Pingyutian and turned into a ray of fairy light and left.
After watching Zhang Sanfeng leave, Fang Jian also turned the Third Prince's horse around. With a loud shout, the Third Prince galloped out in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a jade-colored fairy light and rushed into the West Heaven Gate.
After Fang Jian entered from the West Heaven Gate, he went straight to the Thunder Department. After dismounting in front of the Thunder Department Palace, Fang Jian came to the Divine Thunder Jade Palace and met Yun Zhihong, the True Lord of the Jade Palace.
"Please inform the True Lord that Fang Jian from the Western Heaven Palace is here to pay his respects to the Five Thunder Emperors." After Fang Jian and Yun Zhihong greeted each other, he said to Yun Zhihong.
Yun Zhihong nodded, ordered someone to serve tea to Fang Jian, and issued an imperial edict ordering someone to report to the Five Directions Thunder Emperor.
