Wu Neng replied without thinking: "Of course, it is the Bodhidharma Patriarch, who brought the Dharma to the Shenzhou Continent. ”

"It's really Patriarch Bodhidharma!" Zhan Chen couldn't help jumping up and asked, "Where is Patriarch Bodhidharma now?"

Gono shook his head and said, " I don't know, more than 3,000 years ago, he drove to the capital of the Tang Dynasty in China, Daning City, where he established a temple to spread Buddhism, and opened the altar to preach the Dharma on the fifteenth day of each month, and cast spells, like everyone to show all kinds of miracles, and cast spells to help the poor people, gradually my Buddhism is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, more and more believers, and finally even alarmed the emperor of the Tang Dynasty Li Xuan, he personally summoned the Bodhidharma Patriarch, talked all night, the next day Li Xuan announced that my Buddhism is the state religion of the Tang Dynasty, since then my religion has taken root on the mainland of China, and has developed so far, there are more than 800 large temples in the Tang Dynasty alone, we are still a small temple here, not into the stream。 ”

"So where did Patriarch Bodhidharma go later?" Zhan Chen asked.

Wu Neng shook his head and said: "I don't know, no one can tell when Patriarch Bodhidharma left and where he went, but I know that he has lived in Daning City for about two hundred years, and one day, he left, leaving behind a sentence 'Now that the Shenzhou Continent has spread our Dharma, I will go to other places to teach Buddhism again, so that Buddhism can blossom everywhere in the world.'" With that, he departed, and has not been seen since. ”

Zhan Chen fell into deep thought, he had also read the works of Patriarch Bodhidharma, and knew that the world he was talking about meant the entire universe, and he couldn't help muttering: "It seems that Patriarch Bodhidharma's cultivation has reached a height that I can't imagine, it's unbelievable, he was just a martial artist with a waste spiritual root." ”

Wu Neng listened to him muttering something he didn't understand, and asked, "Donor, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhan Chen stood up, bowed to him, and said, "Master, thank you for telling me this, I'm leaving." ”

Wu Neng nodded with a smile and said, "It seems that you have found what you are looking for." ”

"Yes!" Zhan Chen strode out of the door, looking at his departing back, Wu Neng stroked his beard and muttered: "It seems that this Zhan Shi Master is also a person who is proficient in immortal law, maybe he is from the same world as our Dharma Patriarch." ”

Bidding farewell to Wu Neng, Zhan Chen returned to the road, because he had learned the language of this world, so there was no obstacle in talking to others, and he inquired about the specific location of Daning City, the capital of the Central Tang Dynasty, and searched all the way.

Zhan Chen had only walked for half a month to reach his destination, and he was still in the condition of retaining his strength, because the land where the Shenzhou Continent was located was too fragile, as long as he moved his fingers at will, he could cause the exaggerated effect of overturning the river and the sea, and the land collapsing and destroying the mountains, so Zhan Chen did not dare to reveal his true strength at all.

Standing in front of Daning City and watching, Zhan Chen sighed leisurely, this is probably the most compact royal capital he has ever seen, and its scale is the same as that of a small county on the Beihai Continent, or even worse.

The walls are only a dozen meters high, and the length and width are only more than 5,000 meters, so it is good that such a capital can accommodate more than 100,000 people, but there are many towns and villages around the city, where a lot of people gather.

However, this is not the focus of Zhan Chen's concern, at this moment he just wants to quickly find the temple where Patriarch Bodhidharma has stayed.

So he entered the city, grabbed the people, and asked, "Do you know where the temple where Patriarch Bodhidharma stayed?"

The person who was caught by him glanced at him up and down and said, "Brother Tai, you are the first to come to the capital." ”

Zhan Chen nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"No wonder I don't even know the famous Bodhidharma Monastery, let me teach you, go straight down this road, turn right after passing the third alley, and then keep walking through the alley, you can see. ”

"Thank you!" Zhan Chen saluted him and hurried away, and then he followed the man's instructions to him and finally found the Dharma Monastery.

Bodhidharma Monastery is located in the southeast of the capital, the scale is not small, there are dozens of buildings towering, the temple incense is prosperous, and there is an endless stream of tourists and worshippers.

Standing at the door for a while, Zhan Chen tidied up his clothes again, and then walked into the Zen courtyard, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a statue of Bodhidharma Patriarch set up on the square at the door, he was sitting on the lotus platform and preaching, lifelike.

Zhan Chen hurriedly stepped forward and saluted the statue, with reverence in his heart.

Then he entered the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the Daxiong Treasure Hall was full of people, Zhan Chen looked around, and then locked on a monk standing in front of the Buddha statue wearing a robe, although he was not the host, but he must be a low-ranking and noble person in the temple.

Zhan Chen walked over to him, made a Buddhist salute, and said, "My name is Zhan Chen, may I ask what the master is called?"

The old monk returned a Buddha salute and said, "The poor monk recites Zhen." ”

"It turned out to be Master Nian Zhen, and I am fortunate to meet it. ”

"May I ask what the donor is looking for me?"

"I am here today mainly to donate a sum of money to renovate the monastery. Zhan Chen said.

He didn't say that he wanted to see the place where Patriarch Bodhidharma practiced as soon as he came up, because if he did, he would probably not be able to do so, so he had to find a reason to have a good relationship with the monastery first.

Nian Zhen made another Buddha salute and asked, "How much does the donor donate?"

Zhan Chen replied, "Can you and I take a step to speak?"

Nian Zhen said, "Please come with me." So they led him to a secluded house in the back.

Zhan Chen took out the gold and put it on the table, which was a hundred taels.

Seeing that Nian Zhen was slightly stunned, he hurriedly said: "Donor, you took out so much money at once, I-"

"Master don't need to excuse me, I am a devout Buddhist believer, use this gold to reshape the golden body of the great Buddha in the temple. ”

Nian Zhen glanced at him seriously, and said, "Donor, I'm afraid you didn't come here today just to give money, right?"

Zhan Chen was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "It seems that I can't hide the master's insight, okay, I'll just say it bluntly, I came here mainly to see where Patriarch Bodhidharma practiced." ”

"The retreat place of Patriarch Bodhidharma is an important place for our Buddhism, and now it has been sealed, please refuse to visit, donor, please forgive me for not being able to do anything. ”

Hearing his words, Zhan Chen was disappointed, but he had an idea, and said, "Then can I stay here for a few days and burn incense to worship the Buddha?"

Nian Zhen smiled and said: "Donor, you can live as long as you like, just the one hundred taels of gold you sent today are enough to build another meditation room." ”

Zhan Chen smiled: "Thank you, Mage, please arrange a place for me to live." ”

Nian Zhen nodded, and shouted to a little novice standing at the door, "Cihou, come over and find a clean meditation room for this war benefactor to live in." ”

Cihou replied, "Yes!"

So, Zhan Chen followed Cihou out of the door, and before he went far, he tried to ask, "Your name is Cihou." ”

"Yes. ”

"How old are you?"

"I'm thirteen years old. ”

"Do you know where Patriarch Bodhidharma is practicing?" Zhan Chen tried to ask.

"I don't know much about that, but I've heard that it's in the southwest corner of the monastery, and it's guarded by monks, and no one is allowed to approach it. ”

"I see. Zhan Chen nodded.

After a while, Tzu Hou took him to a deep and secluded meditation room and said, "Donor, if you need anything, just come to me, I will live next door, and if you want to eat, you can go to the east canteen of the monastery." ”

Zhan Chen nodded and smiled: "I understand, you go out first, I want to rest for a while." ”

So, Tzu Hou left.

Zhan Chen lay on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, and when it was late at night, he suddenly stood up and quietly walked out of the room.

At this time, the monks in the monastery were already asleep, but in order not to disturb them, Zhan Chen still used his psychic body magic power to shrink his body to the size of a grain of rice, so that no one could find him at all.

"The southwest corner of the temple, I'll go over and take a look!" A gleam flashed in Zhan Chen's eyes, and he walked quickly in the direction Cihou said.

After a while, he came to a courtyard in the southwest corner of the monastery, and found that several monks were patrolling at the door, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and muttered: "In this courtyard, I'm afraid it's the place where Patriarch Bodhidharma retreats and cultivates." ”

As soon as he slipped through the smoke, he broke into the courtyard, and the monks guarding the door naturally didn't notice anything unusual.
