Chapter 788

As he said that, he took out two fairy peaches, one fairy pear, and some fire dates and placed them on the table next to him.

Leran and Xianyun looked at Juexian with complicated eyes, bowed slightly, and then opened with Wu Dongsheng.

Back at the ground, Wu Dong went directly to the Zen room to rest. After seven or eight days of continuous treatment, he was really tired.

He really slept for a long time, and when he woke up, it was already the next morning. As soon as he left the door, the Zongren came over and said, "Zu Wu, several ancestors are waiting for you in the hall."

Wu Dong nodded, washed his face, and came to the Main Hall of Shaolin Temple. In the main hall, all the monks with higher status were there, Xianyun, Mingran, Mikong, Puning, etc.

A monk sat in the middle, and it was Juexian. He changed into the robe of the moon white monk, his face calmly, and said, "Wu Dong, please sit down."

Wu Dong nodded and sat next to Yue Ran.

Juexian: "I have arrived. I was deviled and killed countless lives. Today I will return to Qingming Festival. Thank you for your help."

Wu Dong smiled: "You are polite to Master Juexian, it is all the things your disciples should do."

Juexian: "I feel deeply guilty. After today, I will practice Buddhism and atone for my life."

Wu Dong secretly asked Xianyun: "Master, what's going on today?"

Xianyun: "Master Juexian's awakening is of great importance. Shaolin will announce to the world. In addition, in three days, Shaolin will hold the "Songshan Conference", and then all the Buddhist practices in the world will gather here. Some giants from the world's cultivation will also come to congratulate them."

Wu Dong understood that this was Shaolin's desire to show his strength and become a Buddhist leader, so he said, "I will let Hong Sheng and the others come here at that time."

Xianyun: "They are already on the road, and it should be almost here."

At this time, I heard Juexian say: "Today's meeting is to discuss how Shaolin can gain a foothold in today's great world."

Juexian's eyes fell on Wu Dong: "Wu Dong, what do you think?"

Wu Dong was the one who woke him up. Juexian was very grateful to him, so he naturally had to ask for his opinion first.

Juexian's approach made many monks present dissatisfied. Some of them have been in Shaolin for decades, and some have been in hundreds of years. How long has Wu Dong been here?

However, their dissatisfaction was suppressed in their hearts and they did not dare to show it.

Wu Dong bowed slightly: "I am young and knowledgeable, and I dare not talk about major issues."

Juexian smiled "hehe" and said, "It's okay, just tell someone's thoughts."

Wu Dong was no longer polite and said, "Then let me tell you, what I said is wrong, please forgive me."

He paused slightly: "The world today is completely different from before. In the past, Shaolin could hold a corner without caring about foreign affairs, but now it cannot. In the future, Shaolin must take the initiative to attack, seize territory, suppress competitors, and stabilize its territory."

Juexian nodded: "Not bad. Then what do you think Shaolin should do next?"

Wu Dong: "The Songshan Conference a few days later is an opportunity. Shaolin can discuss the boundaries of the territory with the surrounding forces, and at the same time negotiate cooperation matters. Moreover, Shaolin must use this to consolidate its position in Buddhism. Today, Buddhists are the most influential with Pure Land Sect and Zen. Shaolin is the ancestral home of Zen, so we must give full play to this advantage."

"As for Shaolin's territory, I think we can go north to Yizhou and control part of the territory. To the west, we can control Hexi and monitor northern Chu. As for the Jianghuai area in the south, we control it, and the two sides can strengthen cooperation. To the east, it is Huanghai Province. The Kong family in the Huanghai area is very powerful, so we can negotiate cooperation to avoid conflicts. Wutai Mountain in Hedong is a Buddhist holy land, and can be our alliance. Wudang in northern Chu is a Taoist holy land, and the influence is not inferior to Shaolin. We can also contact it, and try to cooperate as much as possible."

"If you do these things well, Shaolin can be used as a springboard for Jianghuai and remotely control the south and the East China Sea. If you do it, Shaolin will be the strongest force in Zhongtu."

When Wu Dong said this, someone in the crowd suddenly said, "How can Shaolin be so competitive? If he does this, he will definitely lead enemies everywhere, which is really unwise."

Wu Dong looked at the person who was talking. The other party seemed to be an elder in the Bodhi Academy, a sect. The Bodhi Academy is a place where Buddhism is studied, and many eminent monks emerged.

Wu Dong smiled and said, "Zongqi, in today's world, if you don't go out, you will sooner or later be blocked by others. Shaolin did this for survival and to expand the Buddhist sect."

Zong Qi said lightly: "What Wu Zu did may not be for Shaolin, right?"

Wu Dong was stunned, then sneered, knowing that he would be targeted next.

really......

The next monk whispered loudly: "Saint Ancestor, I have something to say."

Wu Dong took a look and found that the monk seemed to be the elder of the Precepts Academy Qing Ku.

Juexian: "Say."

Qingku: "Saint Ancestor, my Shaolin's development has deviated from the right track recently. A large number of disciples left the temple and went to help other forces expand their territory. On the other hand, my Shaolin has been in existence for thousands of years, but has not yet been able to fully control the Central Plains. That's not all, Shaolin also needs to help others guard the territory."

As soon as Qing Ku spoke, Wu Dong knew that he was guessing. Isn’t this talking about himself? He narrowed his eyes, his eyes were already cold.
