The Temple of Mercy and Grace is still full of pilgrims. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the Buddha Bathing Festival has already passed at this time, there is the name of Master Xuanzang, and the people who come to the incense are still endless, and the carriages and horses in front of the door have to line up in a long line, waiting to enter the mountain gate.

The carriage in which the merchants were riding had already separated from the noisy crowd as soon as they turned into the alley, and drove directly to the back gate of the Temple of Mercy and Grace.

took out the jade plate given by Xuanzang in his hand and shook it in front of the little monk guarding the door, and the carriage drove into the backyard of Ci'en Temple unimpeded.

Holding Xiao Tao's hand and jumping out of the carriage, the merchant walked to Xuanzang's meditation room with a familiar car, looking sideways, the small hill that he had thought about at the beginning was still standing not far away, and the bare mountain was full of exposed boulders, without a trace of greenery, and it looked barren and pitiful.

After a moment's pause, the merchant's gaze paused briefly on the hill and then turned his head, and the sigh in his eyes flashed.

Approaching the familiar black lacquered wooden door along the bluestone path at her feet, the old trees around her cast a large area of coolness on her body all the way, and the sound of Sanskrit singing in her ears seemed to be a clear stream slowly gliding by, gradually calming down the original anxious and depressed heart of the merchant.

The gray-clothed monk guarding the door saw Shang Shang approaching, and subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop him, but when he saw the jade card in Shang Shang's hand, he stopped, bowed slightly, and said, "Su Jushi!" ”

"Master Xuanzang is here?" The merchant returned the salute and asked.

Before she came, she had already ordered someone to send a post, and at this time she opened her mouth to ask, but it was just a routine, and she didn't expect the little monk to answer anything unexpected.

"The abbot is meeting guests in the meditation room, can Su Jushi take a break?" The little monk replied respectfully.

"Visitors?" Shang Shang raised his eyebrows in surprise, who would be the one who would come to see Xuanzang at this time?

"His Royal Highness King Wu is asking the abbot for Dharma in the courtyard." The little monk's voice was a little immature, but the words he said made the merchant a little surprised.

What did King Wu do when he came to Ci'en Temple at this time?

Although he couldn't figure it out, the merchant still thanked the little monk, and walked along the path to the side of the meditation room where Xuanzang lived, and the monk pushed the door and led her in.

This is a small meditation room with a radius of only about 20 steps, which is simply placed with a few high tables and backrest bamboo chairs, and the scroll on the wall is written with a long scroll of Buddhist scriptures in thick ink, which is very clear on the gray-blue brick wall.

After the tea was served, the monk retreated, leaving the merchant here to wait quietly for Xuanzang to come and meet her after seeing the guest.

Listening quietly, the room next door seemed to be silent, and the merchant was holding a tea cup in his hand, but his mind was all focused on the next room, and his eyes were wandering around the long scroll on the wall without focus.

After almost a meal, the wooden door next to it "creaked" open, and Xuanzang's peaceful voice came from the door.

"Donor slow."

"The abbot stays." Li Ke bowed to Xuanzang at the door.

The merchant approached the window lightly, and looked out from the half-open window, just in time to see Li Ke's back, followed by Yuwen in white, and looked at the old monk in front of him quietly and expressionlessly.

As if sensing the gaze of the merchant, Yuwen looked vigilantly at the window where the merchant was standing, and there was murder in his sharp gaze.

The moment he turned his head, the merchant's gaze quickly swept over his thin cheeks, and he didn't feel sorry in his heart, and hurriedly lowered his head.

As soon as the two of them disconnected their gaze through the window lattice, the suspicious sense of peeping suddenly disappeared. Yuwen shook his head slightly and secretly said that he was suspicious, and then followed behind Li Ke and left the small courtyard without looking back.

It wasn't until the figures of the two of them left the courtyard gate of the small courtyard that the merchant walked out of the meditation room.

Xuanzang, who was standing at the door and had not yet entered, smiled slightly, and said to the merchant: "Don't come to harm!" ”

"The abbot is still so energetic!" The merchant looked up and down at the old monk wearing an ordinary gray monk's robe, and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

"The layman smiled!" Xuanzang smiled and led into the house, and the merchant followed his gesture into the door, leaving Xiao Tao waiting in the meditation room.

"I'm just telling the truth." The merchant smiled and sat on the futon opposite Xuanzang, looking around at the surrounding furnishings.

Xuanzang's meditation room has not changed, it is still so simple, the meditation bed against the wall even has the quilt from three years ago, the dark blue quilt has been washed a little white, but the Buddhist scriptures that were originally piled up in a room now don't look so much.

Although some wanted to ask Xuanzang what Li Kedu had said to him, Shang Shang swallowed back after thinking about it.

Looking at the merchant and looking around the room, Xuanzang just smiled and said nothing, the Buddhist scriptures he brought back from Tianzhu had already been translated, and he could be regarded as having fulfilled his wish, and now there is only some sorting work left, which is much easier than before.

"There's something I want to ask the abbot." Now that he has sat down, the merchant is no longer verbose, and directly said his request: "In addition to the death of the body, I want to ask the master to make a 7749 heaven dojo for him, which can be regarded as my heart." ”

Xuanzang looked at Shang Shang for a long time with a little amazement, and then said for a long time: "Laymen don't have to be like this, the debate machine went to Tubo, it was to promote Buddhism, and the old man of this dojo had already done it for him when he learned the news." ”

The merchant paused with his hand holding the teacup, and then smiled lightly: "It's okay!" With a master chanting for the debate, he must be able to get rid of the sea of suffering as soon as possible. ”

Xuanzang recited the Buddha's horn together, and then raised his head again.

"What the layman mentioned in the post, the old man has already instructed his disciples, come with me!" Xuanzang stood up, walked in front of Shang Shang and opened the door.

Thinking of the matter mentioned to her in Gaoyang Mansion, Shang Shang hurriedly put down the tea cup in his hand and followed Xuanzang to the meditation room where Xuanzang had lived.

This is a small Zen room, the walls are gray and gray, the bedding against the wall on the meditation bed, the bedding has been all put away and piled up in the corner of the bed, only an empty bed board is left, the table near the window is empty, the original pen, ink, paper and inkstone are also cleaned up, only a basket box is placed at the foot of the table, which is full of books and other things.

Xuanzang walked to the bookcase, opened the drawer under the tabletop, took out a dark red suede brocade box, took it in his hand and stroked it twice without a trace, and then turned around and handed it to the merchant.

"This box contains some things that have been used in debate machines, so take them if you think they're useful! Although everything is empty, some people can't let go, and there is no need to persuade them, and when the time comes, they will naturally understand. Xuanzang looked at Shang Shang and smiled.

He has studied Buddhism for many years, and he has long looked down on all life and death, although he also sighed a little about the death of the debater, but it is not as low as Shang Shang, and it is impossible to be as fierce and unacceptable as Gao Yang.

"Thank you, Master!"

Knowing that it was not easy for Xuanzang to make this choice, the businessmen were busy bowing down to thank each other.

Buddhism has strict precepts, and this kind of behavior of asking for objects is indeed extremely difficult for Xuanzang, but for the sake of a request from the businessman, Xuanzang still made an exception, which made her feel very warm.

"No thanks! All things have their own fate, and I hope these things can help lay people. Xuanzang said with a smile.

Thinking of Gao Yang's attitude, Shang Shang really had a feeling of wanting to leave it alone, so he had no choice but to sigh and walk out of the meditation room with Xuanzang.

The desire to bring Gao Yang to get close to the Dharma has been in vain, and I just hope that these relics can still make her think of some words of persuasion, a little scruples!

The merchant who turned around was about to leave, but suddenly remembered the green sleeves that had been given birth in the Chinese side of the house, and when he thought of the newborn baby who was as tender as a stamen, the merchant's face was full of smiles.

"I almost forgot something." The merchant turned around and smiled at Xuanzang, who was sent out of the door: "Master! My second sister-in-law happened to give birth and had a son, and I wanted to ask the master for a blessed baby talisman! Don't know if it's convenient? ”

"Amitabha! The old man didn't even know about it, but he wanted to congratulate the layman! Xuanzang smiled and congratulated Shang Shang, then lowered his head and thought about it, and said: "This blessed treasure has not been for a while, but since the monk said it, Lao Wei has a piece of jade Buddha here that has been carried for many years, I don't know if the monk can be satisfied?" ”

As he spoke, Xuanzang took out a crystal clear thing from his arms and handed it to the merchant.

When the merchant took it over to see, it was a small jade Buddha, I think it was brought on the body all the year round, the corners were already rubbed round and smooth, although the jade quality was not particularly good, but it was difficult to carve finely, the eyebrows and eyes of the jade Buddha were lifelike, and it was a good thing to know at a glance.

"This is the master's belongings, how can the merchant win people's love?" Looking at this jade Buddha, which had obviously accompanied Xuanzang for many years, Shang Shang felt a little embarrassed.

She originally wanted Xuanzang to help find an object to bless it, and the child Dai Yu was just a thought of warding off evil spirits and eliminating disasters, but when she said this, Xuanzang took out such a thing, which made her unacceptable for a while.

"It's just something outside the body, what's the matter?" Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the businessman, Xuanzang couldn't help laughing.

The birth of a new life is always something to look forward to and celebrate!

Seeing that Xuanzang insisted on refusing to take it back, the merchant had to thank him, put the Jade Buddha into his arms, and said goodbye to Xuanzang with the brocade box.

Xuanzang sent Shang Shang and Xiao Tao out of the courtyard all the way, and then turned back to his meditation room.

The merchant who got into the carriage again left the Temple of Mercy and Grace with his apologies to Xuanzang, and secretly reminded himself in his heart that he could not forget Xuanzang's entrustment. Although I don't know what kind of luck it is, if there is anything I really want her to help in the future, she will definitely do her best.

Stroking the brocade box in his hand, the merchant whispered to Wang Dayong, who was driving the car: "Go to Princess Gaoyang's mansion." ”

Wang Dayong agreed, and the carriage turned in the direction it had come.

Xiao Tao looked at Shang Shang with some surprise, she saw Shang Shang's face when she came out of the princess's mansion before, but she was going to go again at this time, I don't know why?
