The envoy of Yixiangzong who came to ask for a visit was a monk in his thirties. He wore a black monk's robe. When he saw Masayoro, he clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, my monk Mingcheng, is the junior brother of the abbot of Benden Temple. Master Mingxin. I heard that your party had ended the civil strife in the Imakawa family, so I specially ordered me to come and congratulate me."

Zhengliang nodded and said, "I am honored. Master, please come in and talk in detail."

"Thank you."

In the evaluation room, Zhengliang and this Master Mingcheng sat down with the guest and host.

Zhengliang leaned his right pillow with a slanted pillow against the table, thinking about the other party's purpose in his heart.

As the saying goes, you will not go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Monks of the Hondenji Temple in the Sankawa Kingdom of Tokaido have no friendship with Masaru and even the Imakawa family, even the enemy. Although the Sankawa Yixiangzong has not yet had any evil with the forces of the Luo family at this time, judging from the relevant laws of the Luo family that the Luo family is preparing to gradually implement in the Imakawa family, they will sooner or later have conflicts with the other party because they touch the other party's interests. Of course, now that the other party has come, Masaru wants to see what the other party's purpose is.

Immediately, the two sides started to talk nonsense. As an omnipotent time traveler, Zhengliang also had some research on Buddhism, so he first discussed Buddhism with Master Mingcheng. However, the difference between the Buddhist principles of later generations and the Buddhist principles of Master Mingcheng was obviously too big.

This Master Mingcheng originally said to convince Zhengliang from the perspective of a Buddhist expert, but he was often thrown out some strange Buddhist Zen questions, which made him dizzy. For example, what is the finger of the moon, using the metaphor of taking a taxi or ox to meditate.

This Master Mingcheng was asked by Zhengliang for three questions. In fact, the Pure Land True Sect is not as focused on sudden enlightenment as Linji Sect, and does not pay attention to Zen meditation. The monk Benden Temple only cares about chanting Namo Amitabha all day long, so the monks in the temple are not very skilled in Buddhist principles. It is a bit difficult to fool the people for a while, but it is a bit difficult to fool Zhengliang.

However, it is precisely because of the simple doctrine that the sect has always accepted the threshold and has a wide audience. It allows ordinary people in the Warring States Period who cannot read the big words at this time to join, so it has a broad mass base.

This is more superior than the Tiantai Sect, Linji Sect, and Faxiang Sect, which emphasize the profound and mysterious Buddhism. What they tell you all day long, all appearances, wonderful minds, and a thought of three thousand, and the sky is filled with splashes and golden lotus flowing in the ground. It is useless if you don’t understand it. That is what the warriors and ministers at this time can afford to play with.

But the sects are different all the same. As long as you know the six words Namo Amitabha Buddha. OK, you have already met the conditions for believers in the sect. After death, the Western Pure Land of Bliss will be destined to be with you. In fact, any successful religion can achieve success from the comfort of dissatisfaction with the present society. As long as there is a way to practice, you can ascend to a better world after death to enjoy it, allowing people to accumulate blessings in this life and achieve bliss in the next life.

Since the Yingren Rebellion, wars have been rampant, which has provided countless people who are dissatisfied with the present world. The simple practice methods of Benden Temple. In addition, when he was a monk, there was no need to observe any precepts such as marriage, murder, drinking, and eating meat. Thinking about it, it was Dohapi's life. Therefore, the sect of the Clan has gained so many believers among the lower class people.

So this is also the place where Masara was afraid of the Son Sect. For example, Oda Nobunaga, who was so crazy in history, can be said to be that his opponents who caused trouble in his life were not Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshi, nor the Mori family, Asai family, Asakura family, Mihao family, and Hexao family. And it was precisely these monks of Son Sect.

Master Mingcheng from Honden Temple was a little interested in what Masayoshi said about Middle Earth Zen. Seeing that Masayoshi talked about it for a long time, Master Mingcheng had lost his patience. If this situation continues, Masayoshi could have been involved for another two hours.

So Master Mingcheng decided to go straight to the point, get back to the topic, and take the initiative to his own side, so he immediately said:

"Sir, I admire my understanding of Buddhist principles. I just don't know, sir, what do you think of my Pure Land True Sect?"

Zhengliang sneered secretly, thinking that he had finally revealed his fox's tail, so he shook his head in front of him and said directly: "I'm sorry, I don't know much."

Ai Cheng smiled slightly, and then asked directly: "Since that's the case, let me explain it to you." In fact, Ai Cheng's original idea was to directly ask for a visit to the Imakawa family's governor, Imakawa, but he was suddenly received by the mysterious master in front of him.

Akisu only knew that the other party suddenly appeared recently, directing the Imakawa family to end the civil strife of the Imakawa family and unify the Imakawa family again. Not long ago, he defeated Takeda Shingen, who attempted to invade the Suruga region in the name of supporting the Imakawa family. He can be said to be an important official among the Imakawa family's important officials.

However, the only thing that made Akisuke feel depressed was that no matter how he sent someone to inquire, he could not get more information from this adult, as if the adult seemed to have suddenly popped out of the stone (in fact, Masayoshi suddenly appeared in the Imakawa family during this period, and then suddenly disappeared soon afterwards, which indeed caused great topics to the powerful people in the nearby areas and the general public. In later generations, the legend of the legends he established in the local area during this period was left. Many people even regarded him as the incarnation of Hachimanta Bodhisattva, and specially established shrines and statues for him).

Moreover, from the first meeting with this master, Mingcheng felt that this time he had met a guy who was inconvincing, but even so, he did his best no matter what. Now that this secret master does not know the history of Yixiang Sect, let himself spread it well to it. So Mingcheng began the origin of Yixiang Sect from the beginning.

A sect of the world was born in the Japanese Buddhist holy land of Beiling, Hirashiyama, Yanli Temple, which was set on fire by Oda Nobunaga in history. Yanli Temple was the Tiantai Sect. A monk Faran, originally from the Yanli Temple of Hirashiyama, founded the Pure Land Sect with the doctrine of "teaching in Tiantai and returning to Pure Land", and established the Honan Temple.

The name of the Honun Temple comes from the 18th vow of the forty-eight vows of the Amitabha Sutra. I recite the vow of rebirth. I choose the vow of the original vow. The vow of the three hearts of the original vow. The vow of the sincere faith and the vow of the heart. Later, the eighth generation master of the Pure Land Monastery, Lianru, fled to Echizen Yoshizaki Mountain in order to avoid the pursuit of the Honun Temple in Yanli Temple in Hiramayama. When the believers heard this, they gathered in all directions and stationed in Yoshizaki Mountain, becoming the base camp of the Hokuriku Honun Temple, Yoshizaki Ofang.

Later, the influence of Hokuriku Honan Temple gradually expanded. In the Kaga Kingdom approaching Echizen, it launched a terrifying peasant riot of the Ikki Uprising. Countless people who were temporarily armed, thundered the loud Buddha name of "Namo Amitabha" and directly attacked the residential city that guarded Daimai Tokumasa, and forced the shogunate to appoint a country to protect Tokumasa to commit suicide.

The monks who have always sected the precedent in Japanese history since then, completely pushing the Kaga Kingdom into an ungovernmental territory, realizing that the people turn their backs on their own and take charge of their families and the people’s autonomy. When they said this, Aosuke couldn’t help but show a hint of pride. At the same time, he looked at Masayoro meaningfully.

Masayoshi is naturally aware of this. The dignified daimyo was overthrown by a peasant riot by a word from the Honenji Temple. How much does your Imakawa family have? You can weigh it carefully and whether you should throw yourself into the arms of Honenji Temple.

Zhengliang really felt a little ridiculous about this. Even if you have always been a great man, in Kyushu and Xiguo, have you been taught a lesson by my Luo family and even removed it directly? However, now is not the time to turn against each other, so Zhengliang has to continue listening.

After that, Kaga Kingdom was already the base camp of Honanji in Hokuriku, and the power of Honanji was still expanding in all directions. Their goal was also very funny, which was Hirora.

Well, that's right, the Kyoto Dayufang was built, and the shogunate place was placed on the shogunate, and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss was spread throughout the world. What generals, governors, daimyos, and everything in my eyes were filled with clouds. In the name of religious wars, the believers of Kaga Yixiangsect picked up their own kitchen knife and wooden board, and recited the name of "Namo Amitabha" just like they were injected with chicken blood.

There is only one goal, Kyoto! Kyoto! In the end, Kagamoto Yoshizo Son organized a large army of 300,000 (the number is too exaggerated) in one breath. Unfortunately, Yixiangzong's grand career failed in the Battle of Jiutou Longchuan. The famous general of the Asakura family defeated the Shangluo army in a battle, and the 300,000 army collapsed and scattered. The Shangluo Dayi was shattered.

After that, Kaga Isaicun has been fighting against the Asakura family in this direction, but there is no progress. Yisaicun's offensive was frustrated, so he had to change to Nodeng, Juezhong, Hida, and other three countries. In the Tokaido area, since Yisaicun in the Ise area has been hit by the Oda family with all his strength, he plans to start with the Mikawa Kingdom and prepare to continue to expand in Tokaido.

The Imakawa family where Masara is located is one of the targets of the infiltration of the Tokaido. Today, Akisumi from Hondenji said that he was here to visit Masara, but in fact he was trying to test his attitude towards Masara. If Masara had malicious intentions towards Masara, then it was a pity that Masara would soon fall into the vast ocean of people's war.

Mingcheng's next words meant a little bit that those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. He wanted Zhengliang to express his opinion. How about it? Should I follow my always-Sectarian sect?

"So, as long as you believe in my Pure Land True Sect, we will be a family, so you can get a lot of support and help."

Zhengliang sneered secretly. Of course, he would not join the Pure Land True Sect. Buddhism is not a worldly science, and it is not a specialty in the world. These monks have obviously deviated from the original teachings and used the ignorant people of the lower class to sacrifice and bleed to achieve their own interests and ambitions. What's more, he is a Buddhist enemy in the eyes of Yixiang Sect in Kyushu and Xiguo. If Yixiang Sect in Tokaido learned his true identity, many unexpected changes will naturally occur.

However, this place is not the base camp of the Luo family in Kyushu area. The Luo family will continue to develop secretly in Tokaido under the guise of the Imakawa family, so Masaru naturally cannot refuse in person at this time, and he cannot rashly establish a great enemy like Yixiangzong. Even in Masaru's plan, he has the plan to unify Sanhe again. At that time, maybe Yixiangzong may be his arm helper, so Masaru cannot offend the monks of Hondenji Temple.

Zhengliang smiled slightly and said, "I admire and appreciate the purpose and Buddhist principles of your sect, as well as the aspiration of the Dharma Master to save all sentient beings."

Mingcheng was overjoyed and said, "Sir, do you really think so?"

"It's true." Zhengliang nodded and said, "It's just a pity that I have believed in other sects, so I'm only very sorry for the invitation from your sect."

"So that's it." Mingcheng nodded. Since Zhengliang had already believed in other sects, he could not force it. However, since he had gained Zhengliang's kindness to the sect, it would not be a waste of time for him to come here.

So Mingcheng stood up and said goodbye. When Masayoro saw that he had sent away the trouble, he was relieved.

However, just after sending away the big trouble of Yixiangzong, another trouble arose again.

That night, Masayoro was about to return to the backyard to discuss his life with Noki who was following him, but suddenly received an urgent report from the Intelligence Pavilion.
