Faced with the middle-aged Taoist priest who wanted to calculate future compensation for himself, Lin Mo flatly refused and stated his purpose without any secret: "I want to know why so many Taoist priests and eminent monks have gone to the capital recently." Middle-aged Taoist Priest 1 Before he could react, he blinked blankly and turned his eyes to the flag with the word divination written on it beside the table. He stayed for a moment and then asked in surprise: "Little brother, are you sure you don't want to? Although the poor Taoist is not as good as the real He is a master of Taoism, but he still has some confidence in the way of calculation!" Lin Mo smiled and shook his head: "I don't need it, either to the Taoist priest or to me, and the calculation may not be interesting. Bad results. "Although the method of divination does not require high levels of cultivation on the part of the practitioner, as long as there is a unique method, even a mortal can understand it, but if the user is not strong enough, he will do something that is beyond his ability. According to the calculation, there will be a backlash. For example, it is very common in myths and stories that Taoist priests calculate the fortune of the country and their life span is suddenly reduced by twenty. This is the case. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? It¡¯s pretty much the same now. Although he deliberately hid it, the Taoist priest couldn't see Lin Mo's true identity and just thought he was a young man traveling alone. But once he really calculated it, he immediately realized that something was wrong. It was a minor matter to vomit blood on the spot - a mortal For practitioners who measure the realm of spiritual transformation, haha, it would be great to be alive! The middle-aged Taoist priest didn't know Lin Mo's good intentions, but since the other party declined the calculation and divination, there was no need for him to continue doing it, right? It was just to repay a tea money, and there were many ways. So he simply took his palm back from his arms and said with a smile: "Little brother, it seems you don't know yet. Pindao and all of you are here because of the *conference!" "The *conference?" Lin Mo Raising his eyebrows: "I really don't know about this. I wonder if the chief can explain it more clearly?" The middle-aged Taoist priest immediately nodded: "It's all right." It turns out that seven days ago, Emperor Qianyang, the current ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty Suddenly an edict was issued to inform the world that a political conference would be held in the capital, and people from all sects in the world were invited to attend. At that time, regardless of origin. Regardless of the sect's views, as long as you can perform well, you will be rewarded by Emperor Qianyang. Even if this performance is outstanding enough, such as defeating the crowd or convincing Emperor Qianyang, he will enjoy the same treatment as that 'Cihang Pudu' and be appointed as the national advisor! Lin Mo listened. He couldn't help but frown: What does this mean? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????This is a big deal, and the purpose can¡¯t be guessed. It¡¯s impossible that Emperor Qianyang really had a whim and wanted to repeat what happened ten years ago. Find an expert from all over the world to become your disciple. Does Cihang Pudu¡¯s Imperial Master not care about it Wait, such a strange move came out of nowhere. It seems unlikely that it was Emperor Qianyang¡¯s idea. Maybe? Could it be said that the national master was also involved? Or was this just his idea? There wasn¡¯t much information. Lin Mo thought about it for a while, but couldn¡¯t get any results. "The poor Taoist is still self-aware, and he doesn't think about the imperial master." At this time, the middle-aged Taoist priest had already continued to talk with a smile: "But such a grand event is rare in the world. Hundreds of years have passed since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty. I've never seen it before. Wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't take part in it?" Lin Mo smiled: "But from what I've seen so far, the Taoist priest might actually be able to get the title of National Master. "This is the truth. Along the way, he has never seen any other practitioners except Lin Mo himself. And among mortals. The one in front of me can be considered the most powerful one. So if only these people held that conference, maybe this Taoist priest would get the highest reward. Although the middle-aged Taoist priest knew that this possibility was very small. But when he heard these words, he still laughed: "Then I will take my little brother's good advice!" The two of them were laughing. But he didn't want to hear the others who were unhappy after hearing this, so he immediately stood up, pulled out the tin staff beside him from the ground, and walked over quickly. "Amitabha! Two benefactors, it's better not to talk nonsense." With the Buddha's name, the monk who was sitting on the other side walked to Lin Mo's table, first glanced at Lin Mo and stepped forward, and then cast a sidelong glance at the middle-aged Taoist priest. : "Especially this donor, although you are not a member of my Buddhist sect and are not subject to the rules and regulations, it is better to refrain from lying." Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows: This is religious confrontation! For practitioners, this may not be a problem. For example, Master Yan Chixia and Baiyun do not care about the differences between them, but in the eyes of ordinary people, Taoism and Buddhism are completely important matters that must be distinguished! The middle-aged Taoist priest also reacted, immediately suppressed his smile, and said with a calm expression: "Master, you don't have to worry about it anymore. Besides, are there any rules? Although your eavesdropping is not a violation, it shouldn't be. What a good thing!¡± ¡°The poor monk is just telling the truth.¡±The monk said unceremoniously: "The current national master is a member of my Buddhist sect. He has profound magical power, just like the donor. It is better to give up those unrealistic thoughts early." When the middle-aged Taoist heard this, he was immediately stunned and even a little bit. Embarrassment - Although Cihang Pudu's identity as a monster is certain in Lin Mo's opinion, ordinary mortals still don't know it. In their view, the fact is that a Buddhist monk has been recognized by the imperial court and even Emperor Qianyang, becoming Become a national teacher that everyone respects. So naturally, the superiority of Buddhism over Taoism was established. However, this was not impossible to deal with. The Taoist priest immediately had a response: "In this way, your master, the Dharma is really profound. Otherwise, how could the world be like this today?" Although he has not embarked on the path of spiritual practice, he still It is impossible to see the strange situation between heaven and earth, but the simplest situation of dilapidated people's livelihood in the ordinary world is indeed real. The Taoist priest used this as an attack point, which really made the monk stunned and speechless. "In short, if this benefactor has any worries, he can go to a temple to worship. I, the Buddha, will definitely be able to guide the benefactor." In the end, the monk simply ignored the Taoist priest and spoke directly to Lin Mo: "That's it. "The poor monk said goodbye." Lin Mo didn't say anything, but quietly watched the monk leave quickly with his tin staff in hand, his eyes slightly narrowed. ¡®Monk, you still don¡¯t know that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas no longer exist! ' The middle-aged Taoist priest who had been disturbed had no intention of saying more at this time. He stood up and said: "Little brother, in this case, I will also leave." The matter has been clarified, and Lin Mo did not keep him. Meaning, he naturally nodded gently and said goodbye. It was not until the figure of the Taoist priest quickly disappeared on the official road that the thoughts in his heart were confirmed. "It seems that this *conference has stirred up all these mortal guys. Even if it hasn't started yet, they have already started to fight subconsciously. Otherwise, looking at these two guys who have a lot of experience, how can they not If you don¡¯t know what to say, I won¡¯t deal with it.¡± ¡°Then maybe, I¡¯ll go check out the situation?¡± (To be continued)¡
