The news that Emperor Tang Li Shimin wanted to sacrifice to the Jade Emperor Haotian and pray for victory in the war soon spread in Chang'an City.

Compared to court officials who think that it is worrying to not ask the people and ghosts and gods, ordinary people feel much more at ease.

The emperor asked heaven for help, things would definitely improve.

In addition, this incident has also attracted the attention of both Buddhist and Taoist schools. Since the saints today will seek help from heaven, they may not necessarily seek help from immortals and Buddhas.

This is exactly when they spread the sect.

...

Monk Faming was walking on Chang'an Street, with sorrow hidden between his eyebrows and eyes.

Beside him was a little novice monk who looked only seven or eight years old. He looked handsome and cute, with a jade-like appearance. He was staring at his big eyes and looking left and right, his face full of curiosity and excitement.

"Master, that, is that the legendary candied haws?" The little shaman pulled Faming's sleeve and pointed at a stall on the street.

"Well, it's candied haws." Faming nodded and sighed: "Along the way from Jinshan Temple to Chang'an, I have seen most of the poverty. Even outside Chang'an City, there are refugees everywhere. It's really like a sea of ​​suffering. But I never thought that there would be such a situation in Chang'an City."

For most parts of the Tang Dynasty at this time, candied haws were called luxury goods, but there were still ordinary vendors selling them in Chang'an City.

The atmosphere of the imperial capital is really extraordinary, which makes the Dharma Ming, who has seen the sufferings of the world, feel deeply moved.

"What is the master talking about?" Xiaoxiaomi scratched her head, looking ignorant, "Why can't I understand?"

"You will understand when you grow up." Faming smiled and said, "The world is like a sea of ​​suffering. People in the world are so ignorant, lustful, happy and misfortune, killing and fighting more. We need Buddhist practitioners to save all sentient beings and save suffering."

"If there are chaos today, can the master solve this suffering?" Li Heng happened to pass by. Hearing the words of Monk Faming, he stopped and asked him.

"Just respect the name of my Buddha and Tathagata, you can encourage others to do good and the world will be peaceful." Monk Faming looked solemn and solemn.

"Would you please come to the court and go to the border to praise your Buddhist name, persuade the Turks to do good, and withdraw the troops immediately?" Li Heng sneered.

"This..." Monk Faming was speechless for a moment.

"If the road to the border is long and the master is inconvenient to go, can you ask the master to go outside Chang'an City to recite your Buddhist name and fill the refugees' womb?" Li Heng asked again.

"This..." Monk Faming was silent, his hands folded, "Amitabha."

"Ha! It's ridiculous." Li Heng glanced coldly, walked away with his sleeves, and ignored the monk.

"Master, I think the person said just now makes sense." The little shaman suddenly looked up and said to Faming: "We do not know anything except chanting Amitabha Buddha."

"Amitabha!" Faming recited the Buddha's name again, and at the same time covered the little novice monk's mouth, "I have great magical powers and great supernatural powers, but I need to recite the Buddha's name sincerely to have blessings. You are still young now, and you will understand in the future."

"Wuwu?" The little shaman was covered with his mouth and could not speak, but there was still a deep sense of doubt in his eyes.

...

There is no response to seeking immortals and worshiping Buddha.

Li Heng has confirmed this many times, and it is precisely this reason that makes him think that there are no legendary immortals and Buddhas in this world.

Even if there are Buddhist and Taoist religions here, and monks and Taoist priests, they are just ordinary ancient religious people, a group of people who rely on religious means to capture people's hearts and provide spiritual comfort to specific groups.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Whether as a prince or as a host of the Human Emperor Palace, Li Heng has never met a truly magical practitioner.

They are all just chanting Buddha's name and seeking immortality with empty mouths, and have no effect on the sufferings of reality at all.

Therefore, after hearing Monk Faming's words full of compassion, Li Heng felt extremely hypocritical and couldn't help but sarcastic.

If Buddhism is really so powerful, you can go to the front line of the border to cross the Turks, and you will have infinite merits.

Unfortunately, so far, no great monk has stood up to "save all living beings".

Back at Prince Shun's Mansion, Li Heng called his maid Xiaohuan and said, "Has the jade I asked you to prepare before ready?"

"Report to Your Highness, you are all ready." Xiao Huan said obediently: "A total of nine pieces of mutton fat white jade, each piece weighs nine taels and nine cents, and they have been placed in your study."

"Well, it's done very well." Li Heng smiled and rubbed Xiaohuan's head. He felt much better. "Go and rest."

"Thank you Your Highness to praise you." Xiao Huan bowed respectfully and said withdrew.

Li Heng came to the study and saw nine jade pieces neatly placed on the desk. He was very satisfied and said to himself: "The materials are ready, and I need to use my qi and blood to warm it up next. It will take about ten days before I can start making the 'Daji Imperial Talisman'."

"Daji Imperial Talisman" was a very magical method he obtained before signing in.

You can directly make the wasteland within a few miles full of mature grains and grains, and within three months, you can't eat them all - you will grow new immediately and mature instantly after eating them all.

However, this method is particularly limited.

Only those who must have the position of emperor can induce the "Daji Imperial Talisman" after sacrificing the Human Emperor.

Li Heng can't use it himself.

Li Shimin must be promoted.

Although Li Shimin did not intend to sacrifice to the Human Emperor Palace now, Li Heng was not in a hurry.

Because that day will come soon.

After all, there has never been any response, whether it is to worship the Jade Emperor Haotian or the Saint Ancestor Emperor Xuanyuan.

Finally, Li Shimin must have asked to come to the Human Emperor Palace.

...

At night.

A graceful figure appeared in a dark alley opposite the Shun Palace.

She was staring straight at the gate of the Shun Palace.

If Li Heng was here, he could recognize him at a glance.

This is the female pilgrim who always says that her husband is not at home and her heart hurts.

"You handsome little prince, you have come out of the Human Emperor Palace." The female pilgrim spit out her lilac tongue, skillfully rotated it a few times, and licked her tender and delicate lips, "I can greed for you for too long."

As she said that, the outline of her face began to flicker, and in a blink of an eye it turned out to be the "Hongshang" who was drunk this year.

"A little prince without martial arts cultivation has been infected with the luck of the Human Emperor Palace. It's really a delicious food." Hong Shang's face was flushed, and her delicate body twisted in the shadow of the deep alley, "I'm here now~~"

At this time, in the Shun Palace, Li Heng cut off his left wrist.

Let the blood flow onto a piece of jade.

He was warming it up and preparing for the production of the "Daji Imperial Talisman".

Suddenly, Li Heng felt a flash in front of his eyes, as if layers of pink mist appeared out of thin air, but it disappeared in an instant.

"What's going on?" Li Heng frowned slightly and said to himself: "Is it because he had hallucinations because he shed so much blood for the first time?"

Because it was just an abnormality for a moment, he didn't care and continued to warm up the jade.

At the same time, in a dark alley three miles away from Shun Prince's Mansion.

Hongshang held the wall with a pale face, feeling that his head was about to explode, and the power in his body was also scattering everywhere, and his internal organs were burning by flames, and they were extremely painful.

"How is this possible? How is this possible? He is obviously just a little prince who does not understand martial arts. Why is his soul so terrifying? Why does he show a glorious figure like an immortal god?!

"I, I just want to use illusion to fool his mind and replenish it, but I was actually shattered on the spot with three souls and seven spirits?! Why, why is this happening..."

With full of doubts and confusion, and endless resentment, Hongshang collapsed on the ground and never woke up again.

The next morning.

Someone passed through this dark alley and was surprised to find a snow-white fox corpse. He immediately took it home, peeling the flesh and removing bones, making a fortune.

A few days later, news of the disappearance of the Huagu Hongshang in the drunken flower shade came out.

If it were in the past, this would have caused quite a stir, but now it cannot cause any trouble.

Nowadays, the people of Chang'an City have no time to pay attention to such gossip news.

The Tang Emperor's sacrifice to the Jade Emperor Haotian God seemed useless. The war report from the border was still a series of defeats, and it also required a large amount of resources, food and grass.

The number of refugees outside Chang'an City has also surged to 30,000.

There may be chaos at any time.

The people in the city live in anxiety every day.

All the civil and military officials in the court were helpless about this.
