Chapter 167: Gu Zhenzai is a Buddhist?

The spread of the Internet in Xiniu Hezhou is much faster than Gu Yunli expected!

The Internet, with its extremely rich content, is like opening their eyes to the world for the people of Xiniu Hezhou, who have been in a closed state for a long time.

The convenient landing of prayer wheels also accelerated the process of dissemination.

In fact, many ordinary people don’t care about Buddhism or not.

It's more of a psychological comfort.

The Internet login tool in Xiniu Hezhou is designed to look like a prayer wheel. The localization should not be too successful.

For many people, logging on to the Internet means praying to God.

What Gu Yunli didn't expect was that the main force in spreading the news was not the Buddhists, but... demons!
For the sake of their faith, Buddhists allowed evil spirits to wreak havoc, but unexpectedly, this ended up benefiting the Southern Continent's network, especially the Internet.

For demons and evil spirits, spreading the word online and logging into magic tools is faster and more lasting than eating humans to absorb Yang energy, or disguising themselves as the evil god Mao Shen to gain faith and merit.

The timid spread of the lightless mandala;
Boldly spread the Jambu network.

As the leader of the network alliance, Gu Yunli has done his job conscientiously. He coordinates the major networks, refines and even distributes composite login instruments, formulates publicity strategies, divides the scope of dissemination... and so on.

The so-called scope of dissemination refers to the promotion personnel sent by major networks, not a strict geographical area division.

Faced with this pile of trivial matters, Gu Yunli finally realized that this man was not a head coach at all, but just a handyman!

After working for a long time, he didn't want to do it anymore. Unfortunately, it was not easy for him to quit, so he simply set up a private office and left all the trivial matters to his subordinates.

Apart from sending him important matters, let them handle other repetitive work according to precedent.

At the same time, the energy sharing plan is also in full swing.

It is just right for calculating the metaverse.

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

However, while the Internet is doing well, other networks are suffering.

Especially for the large and small second-rate networks represented by Yuejing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to subsidize the dividends from network login instruments.

Their only way out at this time was to preach in Xiniu Hezhou, Dongsheng Shenzhou, and even Beijuluzhou.

Under the leadership of Emperor Qingxu, the online alliance established to prevent internal friction is loose and has little binding force, but under the political framework of Xuanmen disciples, everyone at least maintains a certain tacit understanding.

Because there is no vicious competition, at least in terms of the dividends from online login instruments, it still maintains a relatively low level.

Under this general trend, all that will be left in the southern continent are the armillary sphere, geomancy, water mirror, and the Internet.

Everything was developing as Gu Yunli had expected.

Unexpectedly, a sudden post interrupted Gu Yunli's rhythm and made his scalp numb.

The post title is:
[Do you think Gu Zhenzai is a Buddhist disciple? ]

I just said it casually, just for fun.

I always felt that Gu Zhenzai’s style of doing things was not quite like that of an orthodox Xuanmen disciple.

First of all, regarding Gu Zhenzai’s background, the information available now only covers the first five years before the creation of the Internet, and many people have seen him.

What about before that?

How come there is no information at all?
There is only one possibility to explain this problem, that he is not from Jambudvīpa.

In fact, Gu Zhenzai’s speaking style, especially his naming, also shows that he is not from Jambudvīpa.

——The Internet, online courses, videos, communities... too many to list.

I don't think a traditional Taoist disciple could come up with so many strange names.

In addition, Buddhism creates incense through suffering, but few people know that stimulating desire is also one of the means to restrain incense, such as the Laughing Buddha.

Look at the Internet again, how many people have been dragged into endless joy and desire?

……

Finally, don’t you think that the Internet login instrument resembles a prayer wheel?
If you are not a Buddhist disciple, how could you think of this?
In fact, the General Chamber of Commerce produced the network login instrument earlier than the Lightless Mandala. It is pure nonsense for Gu Zhenzai to say that he was inspired by the Lightless Mandala to create the network login instrument.

In short, there are too many unsolved mysteries about Gu Zhenzai. I have reason to suspect that he is not a disciple of Xuanmen, and it is very likely that he is a disciple of Buddhism.

——The post ends here. It is very long and I wrote a lot.

Although most of the descriptions were groundless, some details still made Gu Yunli sweat profusely.

"Someone is trying to mess with me!"

Of course not. Logically, such conspiracy posts should be drowned in endless data.

Who would have thought that it would become popular all over the Internet in an instant, with people everywhere watching the fun, commenting, and even copying and forwarding it.

After it was widely spread, we can’t even find which network or forum the original post came from.
Gu Yunli was the first one who didn't believe that there was no trick.

"You can't beat the Internet, so you decided to resort to tricks?"

Gu Yunli narrowed his eyes and was thinking about how to resolve the situation when, with a ding-dong sound, Venerable Jinglian sent a message.

"Master, have you noticed the public opinion online?"

"Thank you for your concern, I already know about it."

"Do you want to return to Lingshan?"

"It's fine for now. If I am exposed, how can the Immortal Court let me get away with it?"

"There is no wind without waves. I'm afraid this is a temptation from someone with ulterior motives."

"Then you have to stay calm. Buddha said: If I don't go to hell, who will?"

"Amitabha, well, Master, please be careful."

"Can Buddhism lend me a helping hand?"

"Please speak frankly, Master!"

"With public opinion spreading like this, how can Buddhism remain indifferent? If I were Gu Yunli, what would Buddhism do?"

Gu Yunli's question caused Venerable Jinglian to fall silent.

After a long while, he replied: "I understand. If I end up making things worse..."

Gu Yunli: "It would be even more strange if the Buddhist sect did not take action."

Venerable Jinglian: "Well done, well done!"

After finishing the conversation, Gu Yunli suddenly stood up and paced around the room. After a long time, he let out a sigh and had already come up with a response plan.

……

……

"Hey, did you read the hot headlines today? Gu Zhenzai is a Buddhist? Hahaha..."

"Since I entered the Audit Department, I realized how big the world is and what a variety of things there are!"

"Everyone, but don't tell me, I feel like what's said above makes sense, right?"

"That makes sense, what kind of brilliant person doesn't have some qualities that ordinary people don't have? If he were an ordinary person, would he still be a big shot?"

"It makes sense."

In the Cyber ​​Palace Audit Department, a group of disciples who were preparing to hand over their shifts took advantage of the break before the handover to chat.

The topic inevitably turns to today's hot headlines.

A group of people were chatting happily when suddenly someone shouted, "Fuck, there's something even weirder!"

Everyone looked over and asked, "What's going on?"

The disciple from the Audit Department said in disbelief, "There is a post saying that Gu Zhenzai is one of the incarnations of the Three Pure Ones!"

"what?"

"Where is where?"

The disciples looked at each other in bewilderment, then quickly logged onto the Internet and followed the instructions. They saw a post with an extremely bizarre title pinned to the top of the forum.

[Gu Zhenzai is one of the incarnations of the Three Pure Ones. I have evidence!!!]
