Chapter 2

It is said that Xue Zheng led Huiyuan to his study, sat down for tea, and then Xue Zheng retreated.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Huiyuan didn't gossip anymore and went straight to the point.

Huiyuan specially explained to Xue Zheng that the reason why he came to Jinling and found the ins and outs of Xue Yan. He first said in a nostalgic tone:

"My family had a prophecy before my death, saying that there would be a 'nobleman' in Jinling. ”

Of course, Xue Zheng knew who Huiyuan's master was, and he knew even more about that one's reputation in mathematics. However, his understanding of the word "nobleman" is obviously a little "deviated" from what Huiyuan wants to express.

Yes, as soon as Xue Zheng heard "Jinling is a nobleman", his thinking immediately rushed in the direction of "whose girl in Jinling has a great future in the palace", "What kind of girl of the right age is in the Xue family", etc......

But before Xue Zheng finished thinking nonsense, he listened to Huiyuan's continued narration, who listened to the words of his ancestor and came to Jinling before the fifth day of May this year, but he waited to no avail.

"It happened that the poor monk happened to get an evil thing, so he invited all his colleagues in Jinling to gather together to discuss the way to deal with it," Huiyuan lightly brought the evil and Jinling monks, and as soon as the words changed, he mentioned Xue Yan, "It was at this time that the little son of Xue Shi's family came-presumably it was Xue Xiaogongzi who felt that Jinling was evil and troubled, and came to help."

Amitabha. However, based on this alone, the poor monk was not sure that Xue Xiaogongzi was the noble person that the ancestor said......"

......Hearing this, Xue Zheng realized that the noble man did not mean "that kind"! Oh, no, it turned out that Master Huiyuan came to the Xue family last time to confirm whether his youngest son was a "nobleman"?

But how do you know that?

Xue Zhengzheng was puzzled, so he heard Huiyuan continue: "So the poor monk specially came to visit. After talking with Xue Xiaogongzi, the poor monk felt that Xiaogongzi's intelligence was really not like that of ordinary children......

Presumably, this son is the noble person mentioned by the ancestor. ”

When Huiyuan said this, he recited the Buddha again.

――Speaking of which, Huiyuan's remarks are actually similar to what he said to Xue Yan last time. Although he clearly explained the reason why he went to Jinling first and then gathered the monks, things such as the "evil spirit" and the influence of Xue Yan on the "evil spirit" were all quickly skipped.

Not a word was leaked out of what shouldn't have been said. ――

Xue Zheng here listened to Huiyuan's narration, and although he couldn't understand the nobleman's identification criteria, he finally figured out the situation!

If the youngest son is the "nobleman" that Huiyuan said...... Xue Zheng contacted the previous account of the eldest son and the steward servant to the younger son. What he couldn't understand before that, such as the younger son reciting scriptures and why he went to the village, can be explained.

Xue Zheng was even shocked by the sentence "Smart is not as smart as an ordinary child".

-- Due to the "monastic crisis" of his youngest son, Xue Zheng deliberately went to learn about all aspects of Buddhism in the past few days.

He already felt that this matter was not simple, but now judging from those materials, this matter is far beyond his imagination:

It seems that they are born with the ability to recite sutras, and they are not as intelligent as ordinary children - there are such examples in Buddhism!

Therefore, it is said that human imagination is infinite. You don't see that Huiyuan's side didn't make any inducements in words, Xue Zheng's side had already come up with an "answer" and exclaimed:

"Great, master, could it be my youngest son, the ...... 'reincarnated spirit child'?"

――If Xue Yan knew that the name that was basically linked to him in the future was still given by his own father, I don't know how he would feel?

Anyway, this Xue Yan won't know.

In the face of Xue Zheng's verification, Huiyuan just said "Amitabha" indifferently, which seemed to be saying to Xue Zheng in his eyes, "Yo, you understand it very well"!

Xue Zheng, who thought that his conjecture had been confirmed, was completely stunned. A passage came out of his mind: "Reincarnated spirit children" have appeared since then, and they have all been taken back to Buddhism one by one!

- His youngest son!!

Sure enough, Xue Zheng saw Huiyuan open his mouth and drop a "bomb":

"Master Xue, the poor monk Guan Xue Xiaogongzi has a fate with the Buddha and wants to accept him as an apprentice-"

Xue Zheng was stunned and immediately returned to his place when he heard this. He was about to refuse loudly, but he didn't expect to open his mouth and not make a sound at all! So he could only watch Hui Yuan continue:

"But after some conversation that day, the poor monk knew that the little boy is now unfinished-"

Xue Zheng: "......"

...... Ay?

What Xue Zheng just wanted to say, he swallowed it back into his stomach like this, and the whole person suddenly choked.

However, as if he hadn't noticed Xue Zheng, Huiyuan slowly said his ultimate goal:

"In this way, the poor monk intends to accept the little prince as a lay disciple first-I don't know what Master Xue thinks?"

Xue Zheng was speechless for a while.

According to the principle of "one drum, then decline, and three exhaustion", Xue Zheng experienced such a high-end triple attack, and by this time there was no momentum, and people were even a little dizzy.

Fortunately, although the person was dizzy, in the face of the request of the "lay disciple", he did not immediately respond to it, but only thought about it carefully.

Huiyuan probably understands this psychology of being a parent, and he doesn't say much to urge.

After a few more words, Huiyuan said goodbye happily.

After Huiyuan left, Xue Zheng ignored his wife and children, who were already so curious that they were about to turn the sky upside down, and locked himself in the study alone.

He began to sort out the causes and consequences of the whole thing and the circumstances of all parties, and thought about the construction of this "lay disciple".

- Xue Zheng initially hoped that Huiyuan would listen to his advice as a father. But now that people have really come to ask, he feels that his head is too big.

can say that "the fate of the dust is not over" and become a "lay disciple" first, it can be seen that the master of the family does not have to force his youngest son to become a monk.

This alone made Xue Zheng's heart settle down a little.

With his mind settled, Xue Zheng's habitual thinking as a businessman appeared, and he unconsciously began to analyze the pros and cons of this matter.

First of all, the nobleman's statement is beyond doubt - the name of Huiyuan's ancestor and Ming Fei's numerology number is too loud!

Xue Zheng once deliberately wanted to ask for a hexagram, but at that time, the master wandered away, and even after returning to Daming Temple, he never gave anyone another fortune.

Moreover, the reputation of this "reincarnated spirit child".

Xue Zheng knew the intelligence of his youngest son. Although it doesn't look like a "smart demon", there will be all kinds of worries when you are a parent.

If the youngest son is a "reincarnated spirit child", that wisdom will have a basis, and it will be passed on, and he will not be afraid of being talked about by others!

And, to be honest, this reputation is good for the Xue family and for his youngest son......

But why did he always feel uncomfortable in his heart? Xue Zheng asked himself.

If you think about it in a bad way......

――This lay disciple already has it, will the beginner disciple be far away?

Ah, the other party really wants his youngest son to be a genuine monk!!
