Chapter 5: Return to the Palace (1)

When it was time to make an appointment with Elder Zhengming and Huang Taiji, that is, when Huikong was eighteen years old, Huang Taiji came to pick up his son from the Shengjing Palace more than 20 miles away and walked out of the mountain gate with a grand ceremony, and gave him a very auspicious common name: Fuyou. I hope that he will be blessed with the blessings of the gods from now on, and he will have nothing to do with the weak Logge when he was a child.

I still remember that on the day when Huang Taiji came to Longyun Temple in person, Elder Zhengming led the monks of the whole temple to greet the Great Khan, and Huikong also followed to greet him according to the elder's arrangement. At this time, he was already a heroic young monk and a martial arts teacher. He has a strong physique, tall and tall, but not very mature, and his handsome face has some babysliness. He was a little curious, and thought to himself: "I heard that this Great Khan is a real dragon emperor, a heavenly khan, if he looks like a dragon in a painting, it doesn't seem to be very good-looking, I have to take a good look." ”

When the Great Khan was hugged and arranged to sit down in the main position of the main hall, Huikong smiled dumbly: "Hey, this Great Khan is not only not a little dragon-like, but also quite handsome." But what did he do when he came to the temple? ”

Next, Elder Zhengming led the monks of the temple to chant sutras, and then appointed Huikong to lead the monks in the temple to perform Shaolin Kung Fu to the Great Khan. When Huikong closed the momentum, he saw the Great Khan applauding very excitedly, and tears were in his eyes. He thought, "It can't be so good, right?" The khan seems to be the biggest official in the north, why can't he even stand up? ”

"Huikong!" Elder Zhengming called his name, "You come near, the Great Khan has something to ask you!" ”

Huikong was taken aback: Could it be that some action was done wrong? Suspiciously, he took a few steps forward, came to the Great Khan, and folded his hands: "Poor monk Huikong see the Great Khan." “

The Great Khan beckoned to him and said in a gentle tone, "Come to me, come!" ”

Huikong Cheng was terrified, not knowing what to do, and looked at Elder Zhengming. Elder Zhengming smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, come to the Great Khan, the Great Khan has something to ask you." ”

Huikong took a few more steps with trepidation, and came to the Khan's side, feeling that there was no place to put his hands. Suddenly remembering the teachings of Elder Zhengming, he hurriedly folded his hands and said to the Great Khan, "The poor monk is the head." ”

The Great Khan took Huikong's hand, pulled him to his knees, looked him up and down for a long time, stood up and compared his height with Huikong, turned back to Elder Zhengming and said, "Master, look, he is taller than Ben Khan!" ”

That kind of kindness from elders is something that Elder Zhengming does not have and has never felt. Da Khan stroked his face, his shoulder, and gently tapped on his strong chest, and then looked at his left ear seriously, stroking the soybean-sized "bolted horse stake" where the ear stopped, and nodded with teary eyes.

Da Khan sat down and asked with a smile, "Does Little Master remember what happened when he was a child?" How did you become a monk? ”

"Back to the Great Khan, the poor monk was a little vague when he was a child, and he didn't remember much, but he only remembered that a very young and well-dressed man handed over Huikong to the elders."

Huang Taiji couldn't hold back any longer, stood up with a "whew", and hugged Huikong in his arms: "Son, I am your father, your father Khan!" I'm here to take you back to the palace, and if you don't go back, your mother will want to die! ”

Huikong seemed to have fallen into the foggy weather all of a sudden, and he was confused: "This Manchurian Son of Heaven is actually his own father?" And Eniang, is she a person with both parents? The Great Khan is the emperor of the Manchurians, and Huikong is also the Manchurians? Since he is the son of the Great Khan, how can he make himself a monk? "It's no wonder how many things a two- or three-year-old can remember?

Seeing that his son was stunned, and knowing that he did not believe and could not bear this sudden fact, the Great Khan sat down, took Huikong's hand and said, "Who do you say I am?" I am the Great Khan! We love the Xinjueluo family as the most noble bloodline, is it possible to recognize a son casually? You let Elder Zhengming talk about it. ”

Elder Zhengming approached and said with a smile: "Huikong, haven't you asked Master several times why you only shave your ordination and not take the ordination, there are several reasons for this: first, you are not a person in Master's Method, and your real Master will come to you in the future, because you have a deep Buddha relationship and a good foundation; Second, you came to Longyun Temple just for fitness, not really a monk; Third, your fate is not over, you have to return to the world, and you have to marry a wife and have children. Indeed, you are the son of the Great Khan, and you are in his blood, how can you confess it? Follow the Great Khan back, as long as you have the Buddha in your heart, you are a Buddhist disciple everywhere, and becoming a monk is only one of the forms of cultivating the Buddha. Master and the Great Khan agreed that you would return to the palace at the age of eighteen, and it was already time, so Master could not prove that you were the son of the Great Khan? ”

Huikong no longer doubted, he knelt down and kowtowed to the master three times, and said with tears: "Disciple Huikong thanks the master for his nurturing grace and earnest teaching. ”

Elder Zhengming hurriedly picked up Huikong: "Elder brother can't be so gifted. ”

At this time, an old man with white hair and white eyebrows walked out beside the Great Khan, unfolded a piece of yellow brocade embroidered with a golden dragon, and said loudly in a high and sharp voice: "Second elder brother blesses and listens to the order!" ”

How does Huikong know who Fuyou is? I didn't know what the holy decree was, and I looked at Elder Zhengming in a daze. Elder Zhengming hurriedly whispered to Huikong, "Call you, quickly kneel down!" ”

Huikong then remembered that the master had said that he would have a common name in the future, and he didn't take it seriously, and thought that the master was joking with him, so he used it? Since Master told me to kneel, then kneel.

“…… The second elder brother is blessed, because he was weak and sick when he was young, so he was sent to Longyun Temple to be raised by the abbot of the temple, Elder Zhengming, and then in order to make the elder brother healthy, he was sent to the Shaolin Temple in Songshan to practice martial arts. Chin this! ”

The white-eyed old man held the holy decree in front of Huikong with both hands, and Huikong was stunned and at a loss. Elder Zhengming hurriedly whispered, "Take it with both hands and kowtow to thank you." ”

Huikong hurriedly took it with both hands and kowtowed: "Thank you!" ”

Everyone laughed, and Huang Taiji couldn't help laughing: "Son, you are really a blank sheet of paper, very good, very good." Father Khan still has something to say to the elders, you go and say goodbye to your senior brothers and brothers, pack up, change your clothes, and we will go back to the palace. ”

A eunuch beside Huang Taiji carried a tray with a stack of luxurious elder brother clothes on it.

"Yes, Huikong obeys!" Huikong folded his hands and took the clothes.

Such a sudden change made Hui Kong very sad. I always thought that Longyun Temple was my home, and my senior brother and brother were my relatives. After living together for more than ten years, they have established a deep relationship with each other. If you are not prepared at all, you have to leave them and go to live an earthly life, how can you get used to it?

When Huikong was surrounded by his brothers and sisters and returned to the meditation room, the meditation room was full of chatter.

"Senior Brother Huikong, you are really good, you hide it so closely! How could you be the son of the present Great Khan? They don't look like each other, don't be mistaken, right? ”

In the minds of these monks, the Huikong Sect in front of them, who was superior in martial arts, couldn't connect with the elder brother of the python robe and jade belt, and everyone seemed to be discussing other people's affairs. Until now, they can't accept this eternal and harmonious brother, who has no delusions and hatred, who has always been diligent in worshiping the Buddha, who has a very high understanding and strong martial arts, and the senior brother turned out to be an extremely noble elder brother!

For this sudden event, Huikong still felt that he didn't believe it in his dreams. He didn't think that the identity of the elder brother was noble, but he was very reluctant to leave here! Looking at the luxurious clothes in front of him, there was no joy at all from a "poor monk" to a "brother", his heart was sour, and tears were rolling in his eyes. But he didn't dare to disobey the master, nor did he dare to disobey the Great Khan. Even if he grew up in the temple, he also knew that the Great Khan had supreme power, and if he did not listen to his holy decree, the entire Longyun Temple would suffer.

He didn't know how to explain the questions of the senior brothers and disciples: "It's not that Huikong deliberately conceals the senior brothers and junior brothers, before the Great Khan came to the temple, Huikong didn't know about it at all, he really didn't know." ”

Indeed, the elder didn't even reveal the slightest bit of tone, which made Huikong and the senior brothers and junior brothers a little unbearable. But in order not to make him too sad, these senior brothers and sisters who get along day and night deliberately pick some light topics, in fact, they are also very reluctant.

A slender monk said: "Senior Brother Huikong, after you go back with the Great Khan, you will be the prince and grandson of the prince, if you become a great official, you won't forget us, right?" ”

Huikong said anxiously: "What kind of official should I be?" The monk still wants to be an official? ”

A short and fat monk said to Huikong: "You are no longer a monk, the holy decree said that you will marry a wife and have children when you go back, and what else will make a contribution, you must be a big official in the future, wait for us to go to you to make a fortune, don't pretend not to know us." ”

Huikong blushed: "What are you talking nonsense about?" It's you who miss your daughter-in-law, see if I don't tickle you! As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to start. Xiaopang was so frightened that he screamed and ran out of the door, who doesn't know how strong Huikong is, that's an authentic Shaolin disciple, ten years of work!

Senior brother Huiwu took Huikong's hand, didn't know what to say, just looked at him. Suddenly hugged him: "Huikong, senior brother is sorry for you, do you remember ......"

"Oh, brother, what did you say? When did you excuse me, forget it! ”

At this time, Elder Zhengming came in, and he handed Huikong's usual monk's stick to Huikong and said, "Leave a thought." ”

Huikong took it with both hands, bowed to the master again, and bowed his head. Elder Zhengming helped Huikong up and said earnestly: "Huikong, you will be rich and honorable soon, but don't forget the fundamentals of being a human being. It is the place where the dragon and the crouching tiger are hidden, and it is also the place where the filth and dirt are hidden. Remember, the Buddha is in his heart, and every qiē in the earthly world is illusory, that is, when you become an elder brother, become a general, or have a higher position, don't forget that you are a cultivator. Take this life step by step, and walk the road of return innocently. ”

"Yes, disciple remember Master's teachings!"

All the senior brothers and brothers were reluctant to hold Huikong's hands and clothes and refused to let go. They knew that although they were not far apart, they were no different from saying goodbye. They will survive in two completely different worlds and live very different lives.

The life of a monk is monotonous, but the heart of man is pure and kind. They were really reluctant to be empty, and their tears rippled one by one, choking up.

"Senior brother, if you pass by here, you must come in to see us!"

"Senior brother, if we meet on the road, don't pretend not to know us!"

"Senior Brother......

"Senior Brother ......"

"Rest assured, as long as I have time, I will come to see everyone, I will not pass by the mountain gate and not enter, and I will not pretend not to know, so what kind of person have I become?"

On the occasion of leaving the mountain gate, Huikong, who was dressed in Agohua's costume, hugged and said goodbye to his master, senior brothers, and junior brothers with tears in his eyes, and boarded the imperial chariot of his father Khan in the hunting of flags and the whining of horns.

Huikong, no, it should be called Fuyou, sat on the imperial chariot with his father Khan, and gradually walked away, waving goodbye to Elder Zhengming, senior brothers, and junior brothers. Looking at his journey of only twenty miles, he felt that he had traveled a long way, that once extremely warm home, and tears blurred his eyes. He didn't dare to imagine what kind of life and destiny would meet him. Or what kind of family and parents is that? Do the brothers and sisters get along well......

Huang Taiji has been quietly observing his son, very satisfied with his purity, but also worried about his purity.
