Hongdao demoted Buddha!
This was the Goat Immortal's request!
However, it was also the common request of the three Great Immortals!
They were truly devoted to Taoism!
He also looked down on the Buddhist Sect with disdain.
Thus, the Goat Immortal made this request.
The Tiger Immortal and the Deer Immortal nodded in unison, clearly disapproving of the Goat Immortal's words!
This made the ruler of Che Chi Country feel a little awkward.
After all, before this, Che Chi Country was still a country where Buddhism was the main religion. There were many temples in the country and there were as many as 2,000 monks.
However, at the same time as he was in a difficult position, the ruler of Che Chi Country also felt some resentment in his heart.
One had to know that before Zhang Wenle and the others prayed for rain, Che Chiguo had placed his hopes on the Buddhist monks.
He had held countless Dharma meetings, offered countless offerings, and invited monks from all over the country to pray for rain.
In the end, after this operation, the drought in Che Chi Country did not stop at all. Instead, it made things worse!
Under such circumstances, everyone in Che Chiguo was slightly resentful.
It would be impossible to say that the ruler of Che Chi Country didn't have any thoughts.
Therefore, the country ruler was hesitating.
"What? Could it be that the country ruler still wanted to keep those monks?”
The Tiger Immortal immediately asked,"Did those monks pray for rain for Che Chi Guo?”
The Deer Immortal nodded."On the contrary, monks do not engage in production. They only chant scriptures all day long. A monk often needs ten or more commoners to support him!”
"And how many monks are there in Che Chi Country?”The Goat Immortal turned to the ruler of the Chi Nation and disdainfully said,"How much manpower and resources do these require?"
”
"Without these monks, how much manpower and resources could Che Chi Guo save?”
"Moreover, how many people can be spared from the hard labor if these monks do it again?”
The three great immortals spoke one after another. After this, the ruler of Che Chi Country had nothing to say.
Because everything they said was on point!
Even the ruler of Che Chi Country had to admit these principles!
In the past, the atmosphere caused Che Chiguo to have no choice but to have such a belief.
But now, Che Chi Kingdom had an Imperial Advisor and respected Taoism as the national religion…Under such circumstances, what use was there for a monk?
Compared to the self-improving and serious Taoist priests who could turn magic into talismans and cure illnesses, what advantage did the monks of Che Chi Country have?
The answer was none!
On the contrary, they were chanting scriptures all day long. All their food, clothing, and necessities were taken from the people without knowing it.
Where were the Taoist priests? They had to know how to draw talismans to cure illnesses, and they also had to know how to catch ghosts and ferret souls…It could be said that the existence of Taoist priests often took care of many occupations that people needed.
The only thing that was not as good as monks was that most Taoist priests did not have the intention of constantly preaching or all kinds of dirty thoughts. They only wanted to cultivate themselves and strive to become immortals.
Now that Taoism was respected, the monks in Chechi Country were not of much use.
Even if these monks were able to use flowery words and glib tongues, what was the use?
In the past, when Che Chi Country was peaceful, the monks could still fool people.
But now, in the entire Che Kingdom, who wouldn't be disappointed in the monks? Some resentment?
"The Imperial Preceptor is still useful, and Taoism is still powerful.”
The ruler of Che Chi Country also had this thought.
Thus, the ruler of Che Chi Country looked at Zhang Wenle, this Grand Imperial Preceptor whom even the three immortals did not know of, he wanted to see what Zhang Wenle meant.
However, Zhang Wenle remained silent.
Keeping his mouth shut and not expressing any opinions already represented Zhang Wenle's intentions!
Even though Zhang Wenle wanted to stop the three demons and immortals from going too far, he did not want to be killed by that monkey twenty years later.
However, Zhang Wenle found it hard to refute the facts that the three Great Immortals had listed!
Under such circumstances, Zhang Wenle was in no position to stop them.
In Zhang Wenle's heart, he found such an excuse."In any case, there are still 20 years before the Journey to the West team arrives here. In these 20 years, there's no need to pretend.”
Coming from the real world where information was developed, he had received all kinds of education and information.
This made Zhang Wenle understand how detestable a bunch of monks who were not involved in production and were taking public resources at the same time were.
If the country was strong and peaceful, it would be fine. It would be able to let a hundred flowers bloom and accommodate all of this.
However, Che Chi Country was only a small country, yet there were so many monks. This was not normal, and it was definitely not beneficial to the entire Che Chi Country.
Seeing Zhang Wenle's 'silent acquiescence' attitude, Che Chi Country's ruler immediately made a decision.
Once he had made his decision, Che Chi Country's ruler no longer hesitated and directly said,""Since that's the case, let's do as the Imperial Preceptor said!”
Che Chi Country's ruler directly said to the guard at the side,""Pass down the order to drive all the monks in the country out of the temple. They will no longer enjoy the offerings and will be forced to do hard labor!”
"There will definitely be some monks who resist," the Tiger Immortal added.”
"Good!"
The ruler of Che Chi Country also agreed without hesitation.
The next day, throughout Che Chi Country, the news of Hongdao demoting Buddha spread.
What was rare was that there was almost no objection in the entire Che Chi Country!
These people had been severely affected by the drought, and they were all on the verge of death.
Under such circumstances, if the Taoist prayer for rain succeeded, the monk was nothing. What else could be said?
Many ordinary families directly threw away the Buddha statues worshiped in their homes.
There were also many people who walked onto the streets and spread the word of joy, celebrating the birth of the Four Great Imperial Preceptor in Che Chi Country.
Even the dumbest civilian would know what this meant!
With the state preceptor, would Che Chi Country still experience a drought in the future?
The answer was no!
On the other hand, if he continued to believe in Buddhism and provide for the monks, would there be a drought next time?
The answer was yes.
Buddhism was nothing!
In this environment, the ruler of Che Chi Country specially held a ceremony to crown the four Imperial Advisors.
At this point, the names of the four Imperial Preceptor had spread throughout the entire Che Chi Country and were praised and respected by everyone.
