Volume 2 Journey to the West Chapter 51 Three burials into the Tang Dynasty
"Okay, Wukong, the matter of Taoist couples still depends on fate and feelings, if you stay here, there will be Taoist couples to send you to the door, hurry up and go on the road, maybe, on this journey to the west, you can meet the other half who is suitable for you. Li Xiang, who had some thoughts, interrupted Sun Wukong's contemplation and said.
Hearing this, Sun Wukong came to his senses and said to Li Xiang: "Big brother, since this is the case, my old grandson will go first." The words fell, and he turned into golden light and rushed towards Nanzhan Buzhou.
looked at the back of Sun Wukong leaving. Li Xiang was full of emotion in his heart, although Wukong was full of confidence when he was there, but in fact, Li Xiang didn't have any bottom in his heart about this game.
In the Journey to the West world, those top bosses have not passed countless eras and led countless layout plans, and even if they count the time they have lived in the dungeon world, it is only a thousand years, and the conspiracy and tricks to deal with can really be said to be no, they all rely on invincible strength to crush the reckless past.
And now in this Journey to the West world, although his strength can be regarded as the top, but he does not have the ultimate strength, it can be said that the only thing he has is just a little bit of foresight, and he is also disrupted by his own indiscriminate interference, how will the future develop, Li thinks clearly, the only thing he can do is to do his best all his hand with sneer, and listen to the destiny of heaven.
Suppressing the complicated thoughts, Li Xiang was also ready to leave. After Chen Yi and Sun Wukong left, there was nothing to be nostalgic for in this Huaguo Mountain, life was too boring, and it was time to do something interesting.
……
Nanzhan Buzhou, Chang'an City...
"Master is really, he actually used his great magic power to move me over, as for such a hurry? Chen Yi, it should be said that the three burials sighed, helplessly looked at the mortals who behaved differently because of their sudden appearance out of thin air, and muttered to themselves depressedly.
While muttering, Chen Yi was ready to perform a Taoist ceremony, as soon as he raised his hand, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly changed it to a Buddhist monk ceremony, and said to a group of people: "Amitabha, poor Tao... The poor monks were buried three times, and the donors were courteous. ”
When the words fell, an old man in the crowd who had some insight stood up, made a Buddhist salute to Chen Yi, and said respectfully: "It turned out to be the master of the three burials, and I just saw that the master could suddenly appear out of thin air, so it must be a living Buddha with great magical powers." ”
"I... The poor monk is just a monk who knows a little magic, and he is not a great monk, let alone the name of a living Buddha. Suppressing what he was going to say, Chen Yi said stiffly.
Hearing this, the old man replied with admiration: "If you are really a great monk, you have such a miraculous power or a humble self-proclaimed little monk, you must be a monk who studies Buddhism hard every day, and if you don't see it clearly, you don't want to think that you know the Buddha and get the Tao." I don't know what the eminent monks are doing here? Are you here to open the altar to preach the Fa?"
Chen Yi: (⊙o⊙)
Looking at the old man in front of him who looked like I had seen through your brain and overdone it, Chen Yi replied speechlessly: "The poor monk heard that the Tang Emperor has been haunted by evil spirits recently, and he can't sleep peacefully at night, so the dragon body is not safe, so he came here to relieve the Tang Emperor's worries and overspend the evil spirits. ”
Chen Yi's words happened to be heard by the guards who had just come over to understand the situation. The news that the Tang Emperor was haunted by ghasts was actually a very secret thing. As the king of a country, the Tang Emperor's every move involves the overall operation of the Tang Dynasty, so it is not appropriate for the Tang Emperor to be in poor health and haunted by evil spirits, so as not to cause turmoil among the people and the court. If it weren't for the description of the monks in front of him by the people nearby, I am afraid that he would have been arrested for the crime of bewitching the people by this time.
After weighing it repeatedly, the leader of the guards stepped forward and said to Chen Yi respectfully: "This master, I have never heard of what you said about the Tang Emperor being haunted by ghasts, but with the master's ability, he should not let go of the ground, therefore, the wronged master will go with me and others, take me and others to report what the master said, and then act after ascertaining the facts, what do you think, master?"
Hearing this, Chen Yi said with a compassionate face: "Amitabha! The monks don't speak, this is the case, and the poor monks did come with good intentions, so it is not necessary to accompany you on a trip." A few donors, please lead the way. ”
The leader of the guards nodded with satisfaction and said, "More master understand, master, please come with me." ”
Chen Yi also performed a Buddha salute again, said "Amitabha", and then left with a group of officers and soldiers.
After walking a few steps, as if he remembered something, Chen Yi suddenly asked, "By the way, do you have food there?"
Hearing this, the leader of the guards glanced at Chen Yi in surprise and said, "Master rest assured, we will arrange food for the master and entertain the master." ”
Chen Yi bowed, recited Amitabha, and said: "Poor monks do not taboo meat and fishy wine, you don't have to bother to deliberately prepare food, just prepare some ordinary wine and meat." ”
Guards: →_→ ←_←
Looking at everyone looking at him with strange eyes, Chen Yi recited Amitabha Buddha again, and said: "As the so-called wine and meat pass through the intestines, the Buddha stays in his heart." Poor monks drinking and eating meat is actually a kind of practice, experiencing life in the mundane desires, and at the same time maintaining their own hearts, this method can strengthen the poor monks' hearts towards the Buddha. ”
When everyone heard the words and felt that what the master said was reasonable, they all let go of their previous skeptical gazes and looked at this eminent monk with respect.
Chen Yi watched a group of people successfully fooled by himself, and secretly sighed in his heart that his master was really knowledgeable, even the Dharma was so proficient, he could drink wine and eat meat, and say such a high level, he just used it as an excuse, but he didn't expect to be able to convince others, and whether the unfathomable image in his heart was raised a few points again.
After the head of the guard went back and arranged the three burial monks, he immediately entered the palace to report the matter, and some people in the public who knew about it heard about it, and immediately ordered the guards to bring the monk to the palace quickly, and the chief of the guard who received the instructions also sighed in his heart that he was prescient and did not neglect the monk, and continued to invite the monk non-stop.
Here, Chen Yi had just settled down, and he had just arrived at the meal, and was about to let someone prepare the meal, when he saw the chief of the guard enter the room in a hurry, and said to himself: "Master, Your Majesty is invited!"
Reluctantly, he gave up the idea of preparing to eat, and said to the leader of the guards, "Please lead the way." ”
Hearing this, the leader of the guards did not delay, and led Chen Yi all the way to the palace.
"See Your Majesty!"
"Amitabha! I have seen His Majesty the Tang Emperor. "Chen Yi.
"Get up. I've seen the master!" Emperor Tang first asked the guards to get up, and then hurriedly went to Chen Yi and made a Buddhist salute.
After the leader of the guards got up, he stood aside and waited quietly, and Chen Yi also politely replied to Emperor Tang.
Looking at the young and handsome monk in front of him, if it weren't for the report of his subordinates on the strangeness of the person in front of him, it would be hard for Tang Huang to believe that such a young and handsome little monk would be a high-ranking monk, even now, Tang Huang's heart is very bottomless, and in the midst of his thoughts, Tang Huang asked a little eagerly: "I heard that the master came this time to relieve my worries haunted by evil spirits, I wonder if this matter can be true?
Chen Yi replied in a gentle tone: "His Majesty the Tang Emperor doesn't need to call me any master, the poor monk is called three burials, and the Tang Emperor can call the poor monk three burials." The poor monk came this time, indeed to relieve the Tang Emperor's worries and surpass the evil spirit. ”
Hearing this, Emperor Tang showed a hint of joy on his face, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what high method Master Sanzang has to get rid of that evil spirit, how long will it take, and what will he prepare?"
Chen Yi still replied in a flat tone: "The evil soul does not go to the underworld to reincarnate, and the mortal world harms people, and the poor monk will naturally use Buddhism to transcend and let his soul return to heaven and earth." As for how long it will take, as soon as the ghast reappears, it will be destroyed in an instant... Exceed it. As for preparation, Your Majesty will first prepare a table of delicious food and wine, and then you can do it. ”
When Emperor Tang heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, if he didn't understand the meaning of the Sanzang Master in front of him, the so-called transcendence, is it to scatter the soul of the dragon king? Could it be that this monk is a monk like a Vajra Arhat? Looking at his face, he is kind and compassionate, and it doesn't look like it? And what does he mean by preparing a table of wine and food? If he doesn't understand, he asks, this is a great virtue that the Tang Emperor thinks he has, so the Tang Emperor directly asked curiously: "Master Sanzang, I don't know what you mean by preparing a table of wine and food?" Is it a sacrifice to that ghast?"
When Chen Yi heard this, he replied with a little embarrassment: "Amitabha, this... The poor monk came all the way in a hurry, and he was quite hungry and thirsty at this time, so this wine and food..."
Emperor Tang suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing heartily: "I see, but I think too much." I thought that a monk like Master Sanzang could already suck the wind and drink the dew to satisfy his stomach, and he no longer needed to eat this mortal grain food. ”
Chen Yi pretended to be profound and replied: "Normally, there is indeed no need to eat these things. However, the poor monk thought that the long-term inhalation of wind and drinking dew would make the immortals have a sense of superiority, and they were separated from the mortal beings, so how could they personally experience the pain of birth, old age, sickness and death, love, hatred, and ignorance? ”
Chen Yi's remarks shocked the Tang Emperor, who knew nothing about Buddhism, really felt that these remarks contained Buddhism, and the Sanzang Master in front of him was indeed a high-ranking monk. After pondering for a while, Emperor Tang respectfully said to Chen Yi: "The master is really a virtuous monk, every word makes people deeply feel the profound meaning of it, if you don't become a Buddha, you will fall into the red dust, this great perseverance is really admirable." ”
Chen Yi still kept his tone flat and modestly replied: "Amitabha, Your Majesty has praised it falsely. The poor monk was only instructed by the master to understand this way, which is not worthy of praise. ”
Emperor Tang replied with a smile: "Master don't need to be too humble, although I don't know much about Buddhism, I also know that the path of seeking Buddha in the form of a master is very dangerous, and if you are not careful, your future will be ruined." The master's courage to walk this path of seeking Buddha is enough to be admired. ”
Chen Yi continued to smile modestly, recited Amitabha Buddha, and at the same time tried a Buddha ceremony to the Tang Emperor, and then did not say anything more.
Seeing Master Sanzang smiling and silent, the spring didn't say anything more, but directly ordered to let people prepare the banquet and prepare to invite Master Sanzang to have a good feast together...
