Su Li had absolute reason to believe that Huichang Temple was extremely fat.
In the history of the Three Martial Arts and One Sect's Buddhist Extermination, which one of them did not confiscate a large amount of wealth?
When Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty exterminated Buddhism, the number of monks ordered to return to asceticism was as high as 300,000, and the number of handymen ordered by the monastery was as high as 500,000.
Did Buddhism have money now?
The answer was definitely yes!
Although Li Er claimed to be a descendant of Laozi, he had never done anything to suppress Buddha.
And what was the greatest advantage of Buddhism?
Compared to the obscure and profound classics of Taoism, the teachings of Buddhism were simpler and easier to accept.
Buddhism also emphasized putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot, which led to many temples hiding people with cases.
However, Taoism was different. Ever since the Western Han Dynasty's Taoism was smashed by Confucianism, Taoism had gradually been absorbed and integrated from the original school of governing the country.
The classics and thoughts of Taoism had also completed a major sublimation.
At the same time, it also greatly increased the difficulty of entering Taoism.
Under such circumstances, it was not unreasonable for the local sects to be defeated by the foreign sects.
Of course, the large number of people also caused a big problem.
the good will wither and not be in harmony.
In fact, most members of Buddhism were far less educated than Daoists at that time, and there were even some people who put down their butcher knives.
Under such an environment, naturally, many temples focused on amassing wealth were born.
He even acted like a tyrant, constantly annexing land, just like a new landlord.
Even in modern times, some temples would still resort to anything to make money, let alone in ancient times.
Huichang Temple was one of the most famous temples in Chang 'an. In the early years, even Li Er personally went to pay his respects.
And the famous monk Bian Ji who had an affair with Gao Yang in history also practiced here.
The amount of wealth that Huichang Temple had accumulated over the years was probably unimaginable.
The evidence of Su Li's crimes already showed that the Huichang Temple's back was covered in blood debts, so what about this money stained with blood?
Had he become a golden Buddha statue sitting in the Great Buddha Hall, or had he entered the Buddha's stomach?
Or was it taken by some monks?
Li Er was a very poor man. Six years ago, the Turks invaded the Central Plains and emptied more than half of his treasury.
Three years later, even though he had successfully destroyed the Turks, Li Er had given them generous rewards to appease the surrounding countries in order to calm the hearts of the small countries on the border.
Other than successfully taking revenge, he did not earn anything and lost more than half of the national treasury.
Zhenguan's golden age was still two years away, and Li Er's belt had been tightened over the years.
In order to show his frugality, Li Er was reluctant to part with the delicacies.
If such a poor man raided the Huichang Temple, what would he do?
Destroy Buddha? No, there was no need.
Su Li did not need Li Er to destroy Buddha.
As long as they were treated fairly, the number of temples in the world would be reduced by half.
Where did the money that Buddha Annihilation got come from? Did he expect these monks to behave themselves in the Tang Dynasty?
Forget it, even in the modern era, they were not well-behaved.
As long as they were investigated fairly, it would be enough to make the Buddhist Sect breathless.
Furthermore, there was still the compilation of Taoist classics.
According to Su Li's idea, the compilation of Daoist classics should be divided into different levels.
For example, if it was too difficult for beginners to learn, it should be listed as an advanced course.
Beginners should learn simple and easy to understand principles.
In this way, it could greatly reduce the entry level of Taoism.
So here was the problem?
What if everyone went to information path?
If the privileges of priests were abolished, then what was the difference between an ordinary person in the information path and an ordinary person?
After all, Taoist priests didn't need to shave their heads.
Moreover, after Taoism absorbed and integrated the Taoist classics that had been smashed into pieces during the Western Han Dynasty, there were really articles on governing the country.
Su Li could completely list them out and divide them into a new category.
He might even be able to use this operation to give the Daoists a dirty earth reincarnation and fight the Confucians for another 300 rounds.
It was not that Su Li hated the Confucian school. After all, no matter how dark it was, after a long period of development, the Confucian school had successfully become an indispensable part of the culture of the Xia.
The scholarly faction's current status had been achieved through hard work. The scholarly faction's fighting strength was strong enough, and their leaders were ruthless enough.
However, that was the Confucian school of the past.
That was the scholarly faction that had been struggling to survive in the cracks of the Hundred Schools of Thought, not the current scholarly faction that had nothing to worry about.
After a period of peace, the Confucians successfully controlled the fishing rights and political power. They began large-scale internal strife, ignoring the bottom line to cater to the rulers, and even shamelessly distorted the will of the sages.
Some of the annotations of the Analects of Confucius could probably make Confucius jump out of his coffin.
No matter what field of knowledge it was, there would only be progress if there was competition.
When the scholarly faction had dominated the commanding heights, they had personally sculpted the golden bodies of their predecessors that they were most unwilling to see and worshipped them as gods. From this moment onwards, the scholarly faction had already begun to fall into desolation.
(The Confucianists were actually quite strong when they had competitors. Unfortunately, after the Confucianists had finished fighting outside, they started an internal war, and then they were all f * cking finished…)
In addition, Daoism and Taoism were not the same thing. During the Western Han Dynasty, Daoism was beaten very badly. Later on, it inexplicably began to lean toward the dark side, and then it became more and more mysterious…
He could have resisted a little, but in the end, he played himself to death…
Then, Taoism and Taoism became one family, and everyone happily began their journey of cultivation…：……
