Later, the Emperor Taishang was invincible on the way to expand his power, and he also had a lot to do with Falla and others. It can be said that Falla has made many contributions and made immortal contributions in assisting the Emperor Taishang to ascend the throne and become emperor. Two years earlier, however, Falla had been persecuted.

"Two years ago, Falla was forbidden to enter the palace to meet the Emperor Taishang, so he went to Pei Lianpei's house to have a discussion. This was caught by someone with a heart, and he immediately framed the crime to Falla, saying that he tried to deceive the courtiers with evil words, and now His Majesty heard the words and executed Falla. Master Pei was also implicated in this matter. ”

Ruqi was very uncomfortable when he heard such a cruel secret, he swallowed the words choked in his throat, and thought: ...... It turns out that this is the reason why they are so secretive.

"There are no Zen doctors in Chang'an City who are willing to go, so the poor monks come from thousands of miles to seek advice, after all, Master Fa Lin has dealt with His Majesty Xià and can feel His Majesty's temperament." The middle-aged monk said, bowing his hand deeply to Master Falin.

I saw the other party shake his head and said: "The companion is like a tiger, but the poor monk is lucky that he didn't put himself in, but he also got the name of the master of Longtian Temple." ”

The middle-aged monk praised Farin as an example for everyone in the Buddhist sect, and then said: "In fact, the poor monk thinks that it is a good choice for the master of the pure industry temple to enter the palace. He is a well-known Zen doctor in Kannai, but his achievements in Buddhist precepts have gradually overshadowed his medical skills. Having said that, he has always been very principled in his work, and he does not listen to people's advice at all. Convincing him to answer the edict is much more difficult than going to the West to meet the Buddha Amitayus. ”

Ruqi silently pondered for a long time, as if he had made up his mind greatly, raised his clear eyes and looked at the middle-aged monk: "The little monk has roughly studied medicine for a year, although his foundation is shallow, he wants to enter the palace to share a share of his majesty's worries."

“…… Is this true? The middle-aged monk was overjoyed, and his expression revealed a hint of brightness.

"Monks should not speak falsely." Ruqi nodded in affirmation of his mind.

In fact, it is just a pretense to say that it is a pretense to share worries for His Majesty. He just wanted to enter the palace to see if he could be lucky enough to meet Qin Ying.

The middle-aged monk sighed after hearing this: "It is rumored that Dao Xuanshi is not good at talking, but the elder beside him is a warm-hearted and kind person. ”

Master Falin's eyebrows narrowed slightly, and he taught with a straight face: "You are not a noble act of 'I don't go to hell, who will go to hell', but 'I know that there are tigers in the mountains, and I prefer to go to the tiger mountains'." Well, since you've made up your mind, no one can stop you. However, you must always know in your heart that the danger of entering the palace is far greater than you think. ”

"Isn't it? Taoist priest Qin Ying entered the palace after the Qingming Festival, and now it is almost June, and he has not received any news from that person in the palace. "The middle-aged monk cited Qin Ying's incident as an example to prove that what Master Fa Lin said was true and not mixed with water at all." According to the humble opinion of the poor monks, this time the Buddha sect could not produce a bhikshu. At least two people must enter the palace together, so that everything can be taken care of. ”

"You're right." Master Falin felt that the middle-aged monk was very thoughtful and exhaustive, and added on his basis, "When you return to Chang'an, you will go to the big temple one by one to ask if there are any monks who have voluntarily entered the palace." I don't want him to be a clever Zen doctor, as long as he reads the scriptures well and memorizes the rituals well. ”

"Why is that?" The middle-aged monk suddenly lost his head.

"At the beginning, you said to the poor monk, and after the Taoist priest Qin Ying entered the palace, he made a ceremony for the prince to pray for the prince. Based on this, the poor monk guessed that His Majesty was likely to ask the monks who entered the palace to confer ordination on the crown prince to verify whether the two of them were capable of it. "Master Fa Lin has been around His Majesty in the past, and he can guess His Majesty's mind so that he is not far from ten.

The middle-aged monk finally turned around the bend, touched his chin and said in surprise: "Ordination? Could it be that His Majesty would let the prince convert to Buddhism? ”

"This poor monk can't be cut off lightly." Master Fa Lin slowly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "However, judging from the situation of His Majesty Xià who was sick and rushed to the sect, I don't know if His Majesty wanted to seek all kinds of gods and Buddhas to protect his eldest son." The abacus is really wonderful, but whether the mind can be realized or not...... he didn't say the latter words, just lowered his eyes and drank a sip of tea soup to moisten his throat.

The middle-aged monk said silently in his heart: Because all the gods and Buddhas are fighting with each other in one place, there is no extra effort to protect His Royal Highness the Prince.

The seven in this compartment were shrouded in clouds and fog, and the middle-aged monk in that compartment had already thought of a "reasonable" explanation.

"After receiving your teachings, the poor monk's heart opened up a little. Early tomorrow morning, the poor monk will go back to Chang'an. He saluted Master Pharain, got up and said goodbye, and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

"It's rare to come to Zhongnan Mountain once, and leave in a hurry without looking for the fellow practitioners of Zhongnan Mountain Temple?" Master Falin put down the thin-glazed teacup in his hand and asked in a faint voice.

The middle-aged monk sighed helplessly and said: "You don't know, a few years ago, the poor monk was elected by others to serve as the chief monk of Hongfu Temple. The affairs of the temple must not be delayed for too long. This sigh has the flavor of falling into the mundane and involuntarily.

Master Pharain waved his hand noncommittally and replied, "In this life, there are only a few decades in total. In the first ten years of last year's ignorance, and the last ten years of old age and decrepitude, there are less than half of the days left after removing the daily diet and sleep. Cultivation is the most important thing that cannot be delayed. Don't forget your original intention of ordaining you. ”

After listening to this general persuasion, the middle-aged monk felt a thrill all over his body, and then his mind was clear, and he felt like he had been empowered by Master Falin.

“…… What you said is extremely true, Zhongnan Mountain, the land of the Crouching Tiger and Hidden Dragon, the poor monk will leave tomorrow in a hurry. Tomorrow, the poor monk will go to the Pure Industry Temple to visit the great virtue of the Vinaya Dao Xuanshi, and the day after tomorrow will go to the Caotang Temple to find the famous three sages to discuss the three theories. ”

Master Falin nodded approvingly.

When the middle-aged monk exited the room, Ruqi asked, "Master Fa Lin, do you know what 'good is immortal bones, and affection is the heart of the Buddha'?" Ruqi explained the cause and effect of this sentence.

Master Fa Lin heard the sound outside the strings, but deliberately did not touch him, and only replied: "Dao Xuan Master is teaching you in his own way, I will not interfere, you realize that it is yours, I tell you that you know, this truth is still mine." Got it? ”

Seeing that Qibi replied respectfully, Master Fa Lin stroked his beard and said, "The son can be taught." After speaking, he stretched out a thin index finger and pointed to the medicine bag on the table, "When you go out, put it in the back kitchen by the way, and send someone to boil it out." ”
