Debate Machine (20)
After the translation of Hongfu Temple, the nine great virtues required by Xuanzang were determined within three days, as determined by Lianyin, and the debate machine was impressively listed.
Not only that, but in the translation field, Xuanzang debated with him for the longest time and the most intensely. The two of you come and go, which is enough to open the eyes of the other people present, and also benefit a lot.
After discerning the scriptures, Xuanzang also specially inquired about the debate in detail, and his words were undisguised with appreciation.
Because of Xuanzang's appreciation and love, the appointment document that finalized the selection of the nine virtues came out on the second day, and when the appointment document was delivered to Huichang Temple in the morning, the debater was writing down the content of yesterday's debate with Master Xuanzang. At first glance, he heard that he was lucky enough to be selected, but he couldn't react.
It was only when the novices and monks of the whole monastery came to congratulate him that he came back to his senses.
Then in the afternoon, almost all the monks in Chang'an City knew about it, and the general holding temple, as the monk of the debate machine, naturally also sent someone to congratulate the debate machine, and at the same time, Lian Yin also heard the news and came to the Huichang Temple.
When Lian Yin saw the debate, he had just sent off the monks of the Great Shoji Temple.
After the morning of disbelief, the debate machine has returned to its desireless and plain appearance.
Lian Yin was full of smiles, happier than himself, "What do I say, you must be fine, right?" You see, now the Nine Great Virtues, you are the first candidate to be determined by Master Xuanzang, which shows how good you are. ”
The debate is the reason for the female benefactor's enlightenment. He also said, "I have a lot of thoughts about the debate." ”
"I don't need you to be grateful, you just need to remember."
The debater continued to salute and did not answer her words.
Lian Yin ignored his silence and said, "You're moving to Hongfu Temple tomorrow, right?" I've got something for you today. After speaking, she went to call Lu Qiba, who was standing far away.
Today, I specially supported Cheng Youcai and didn't let him come over.
Lu Qiba, as the only laborer, carried two big burdens in his hands, and now he was summoned by Lianyin, so he hurriedly came over and presented the two burdens to the debate machine, and then left far away again with the ease of shaking his hands.
The debater looked at the two burdens suspiciously, not knowing what was inside, or Lian Yin took the first step to solve his doubts.
"I think, since you are helping Master Xuanzang compile the scriptures, then you must have a lot of time to hold the pen every day, so I brought you a set of four treasures of the study. Plus, there are some vegetarian pastries that you can take to Kofukuji Temple. "Two baggage, one is the four treasures of the study, and the other is full of vegetarian pastries, and they are untied and shown to him one by one.
The debater looked at the items in the two baggage, and she could always think of something else and make him wonder what to do.
Lian Yin didn't care what he didn't know at the moment, he wrapped up the untied burden again, and said two regrets in his mouth, "After you go to Hongfu Temple, I can't come to talk to you like this." But don't worry, as long as there is a way, I will definitely come to see you. You've got to think about me. ”
Debate: "......"
The debate machine's eyes were still on the two burdens, and he held back for a long time before saying, "Thank you for this kindness from the female donor, but please forgive the debate machine for not being able to accept it." ”
"Why?" Lianyinshou was still on the burden, and when he heard the words, he asked him strangely.
The debate machine didn't go into details, but only repeated what he just said, "The debate machine can't stand it, please ask the female donor to take it back." ”
Lian Yin looked at him speechlessly, and after being silent for a while, her shoulders collapsed, and she said helplessly, "I specially prepared it for you, but you don't want it." After pouting, he said, "Why don't you do this, you can leave a burden down." As for which one to keep, ...... might as well keep this one. She pointed to the bag that contained the four treasures of the study.
The debate machine still wanted to refuse, but Lian Yin took the first step to carry the burden into his arms, "Just take this one, you can use it, really." Then he brought up the vegetarian bag himself, "Okay, I'm here for this, you should have a lot of things to do tomorrow, so I won't bother you." ”
As when she came, she left in a hurry, pinching the four treasures of the study, and sighed secretly.
Weighing the weight in his hand, he remembered what he had just seen, a set of four treasures of the study in the baggage, all of which were complete, and the materials were all of the highest quality, but they were not very exquisite, but simple and generous, which was very suitable for a monk like him.
It can also be seen from this that the legato is really attentive.
What the debate machine didn't know was that Lianyin had been preparing for several days, just waiting to be sent out today.
***
At night, the debate machine packed up all the clothes and other belongings, and prepared to take them to Hongfuji Temple tomorrow.
Naturally, the four treasures of the study room were not left behind, and at the same time, the debate machine also included the spring scene on the wall into the luggage.
Hongfu Temple will be the debate machine where the Zen room is arranged not far from Xuanzang, it is said that this is still Xuanzang personally requested, because he is very satisfied with the debate, so Xuanzang for the convenience of finding him, it was arranged closer, as for the other Dade who was selected together, there was no such treatment.
The debate machine came the earliest, and after he finished packing up his things, Xuanzang sent Xiao Shami to find him to talk.
The two talked for a long time in Xuanzang's meditation room, Xuanzang's love for the debate machine has been thinking about it since the first translation of Hongfu Temple, and after asking him some questions this time, he went straight to the point and said that he wanted to teach him Buddhism in person, and asked the debater if he was willing.
In Shamen, disciples are all looking for a teacher and asking the master to teach their own Dharma, but I have never seen a teacher personally looking for a disciple and asking the disciple if he is willing.
The debate machine looked at Xuanzang in surprise, and was directly stunned. But when he came back to his senses, he didn't say a word, and directly knelt down to worship Xuanzang, and shouted "Master" in his mouth.
Xuanzang's smiling beautiful eyes are kind.
When all the nine embellishments settled in Hongfu Temple, the news that Xuanzang accepted the debate machine as an apprentice has also spread throughout Chang'an City.
Even after Cheng Zhijie found out, he couldn't help but nod appreciatively.
But how good would it be if the debater wasn't a monk?
Hongfu Temple is not a big temple, the environment in the temple is quiet, and there are not so many good men and women who come to pray for blessings all day long, which provides a lot of help for Xuanzang's translation industry, and it is Fang Xuanling who supervises the translation of these people.
Fang Zai is also dedicated to Xuanzang and others, and he will come over to sit down every day to see if there is anything needed, so for this reason, the prime minister's second son Fang Bereavement will occasionally come over with him to have a look.
While translating the text, Master Xuanzang did not forget Li Shimin's explanation, and at the same time undertook to teach the debate machine the Dharma, so he decided to let the debate machine write it, and after he dictated, he put all the things he had seen and heard in the past ten years on paper and presented them to Li Shimin.
