At the group of heroes, the masters performed, and the more and more strange, so that the eight hundred heroes opened their eyes to each other, knowing that there are many capable people and monsters in this world, and they are fortunate to have this opportunity...... Most of the heroes invited to this conference are good at what people can't do, involving a wide range of people from various industries with various skills.

For example, the well-known folk "Clay Man Zhang" and "Sugar Man Li" are among the invited heroes. The heroes will not talk about the rich and the poor, and the status of the heroes will be respected, especially the heroes, but also Zhao Chen, Zeng Ping and others have insight, know that no matter what kind of business, there are dragons and tigers to hide, and they want to invite all the talented people in the world. The successor of the "clay man Zhang" is called Zhang Pei, who secretly touched the appearance of 800 heroes, and privately pinched out 800 clay figures, the shape is realistic, and you can see who is who at a glance, which makes the heroes amazed. Zhao Chen was particularly surprised when he saw it, and immediately collected these 800 clay figurines in Baguio Villa to commemorate the group meeting.

The meeting lasted for three days, and 217 people took the stage to perform their performances. During the event, Baguio Villa sent more than 10 chief writers to record the surnames of 800 heroes, talents and skills, and recorded in detail, not in the ranks, and combined with a "Heroes Genealogy". There are also talented wise men, who wrote more than 100 poems and songs to commemorate this grand event. On the fourth day, Baguio Villa was all open, inviting the heroes to enjoy the scenery and get to know each other, which pushed the atmosphere to the top.

There was a Henan celebrity, named Guan Zhongling, who invited more than a dozen people to "Ningyuan" to visit Lian Qiying, Sun Qi and other people, because he wanted to see the chess array outside the Dushikou Pass to help the hall block the Jurchen 200,000 iron horsemen on chess. Lian Qiying happily agreed, and introduced Fang Guohuan to everyone, Guan Zhongling and the others were amazed when they saw that Fang Guohuan turned out to be a young man. When the news spread, the heroes came to "Ning Yuan" to see Fang Guolian, and witnessed this person who could get out of his great skills in chess and give birth to another ability. Fang Guohuan was overwhelmed for a while, and he was also happy to get acquainted with the heroes of the world. Lian Qiying, Fa Wu and others were particularly pleased to see that Fang Guolian was admired by the heroes.

After visiting Baguio Villa, the group of heroes meeting was also over, and the group of heroes dispersed and said goodbye one after another. Because of Xiaoquan, Fang Guolian was invited by Zhao Chen's father to stay in Baguio Villa for a few more days, and prepared to take Xiaoquan and Fa Wutong back to Lianyun Mountain Tianyuan Temple a few days later. Lian Qiying, Sun Qi, Liu He and other people said goodbye and returned to Poyang Lake first, accompanied by Mrs. Chrysanthemum and Jiangnan chess king Tian Yangwu. Although Luo Kun, Bu Yuan, and Lu Zhufeng were reluctant to leave Fang Guolian, they were reluctant to leave.

Fang Guolian sent away the people in the hall, and then sent Zhong Shiyuan and Wei Chi Yunlu away, and then Gu Sichen, Tong Shiru's master and apprentice, Ruan Fang, Mi Qian, Mei Yinan, Xu Gong, Zhao Jie and others also left one after another, Zeng Ping and Xiaosheng were the last to leave. The grand group of heroes will end smoothly, and Baguio Villa has returned to its former calm, only Song Luyang is dealing with some things after the meeting.

The heroes dispersed, only Fang Guolian and Fa Wu stayed in Baguio Villa, preparing to take Xiaoquan back to Tianyuan Temple three days later. Fang Guolian and Zhao Chen have agreed that Xiao Quan will return to Baguio Villa after living in Tianyuan Temple for a period of time, and as for the fact that he is the reincarnation of Lamaism, the little living Buddha will be discussed later.

At this time, Fang Guolian, Fa Wu, Zhao Chen, and Zhao Mingfeng were drinking tea and chatting in the Qiren Palace, and Xiaoquan was called by Han Xing'er to brew Baihua wine in the Baihua Hall. Talking about the strange things at the Heroes Meeting, Fang Guohuan sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that there are so many talented people in the world, and this Heroes Meeting is really eye-opening." ”

Zhao Chen said: "This conference is also beyond my surprise, I didn't expect it to be such a success, although it cost more than 100,000 taels of silver, but it is also worth it." Fang Guohuan said with a smile: "Uncle Zhao does things, every feat in his life, when he built a ship and went to sea, and today's group of heroes are at the conference, this kind of courage is not something ordinary people can do." ”

Fa Wu said: "Mr. Zhao's pride is not like that of a rich family, the ancients also had rich people, who were more indulged in their own pleasures and shined in front of others, but not like Mr. Zhao, which can make the pride swagger in the world." Zhao Chen said with a smile: "The two of you have won the award, life is in the world, you should make a difference, as long as you try your best to do it, success is second, the main thing is to let your own heart have no regrets, no regrets." ”

At this time, a Zhuang Ding came in with a letter and reported: "Master, some lamas from outside the village asked if Fang Guozhuan was in the village, and the villain said that he was there, and a lama handed over a letter, saying that it would be presented to Fang Gong and he would know it at a glance. "Looking for me?" When Fang Guohuan heard this, he was greatly surprised. Zhao Chen asked, "But I can ask clearly, where did the lama come from?" Na Zhuang Ding said: "It is said that he is from the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa City." ”

"Jokhang Temple!?" Fang Guohuan was startled and said, "Could it be that Lama Anmu sent someone to welcome Xiaoquan?" "Wouldn't it?" Zhao Chen was stunned and said: "It hasn't been long since Gong returned to Jiangnan, and it hasn't been a few days since he recognized Xiao Quan's identity, so why did Lama Anmu send someone so quickly?" ”

Zhao Mingfeng said on the side: "Could it be that the Anmu Lama was in a hurry to wait and sent someone to urge?" Otherwise, how could they know that their little living Buddha had been found. Fa Wu had heard Fang Guozhuan say about Xiaoquan, and said at this time: "Master Anmu has a letter, and the junior brother will know the reason when he sees it." Fang Guohuan hurriedly took Zhuang Ding's letter and hurriedly opened it.

Zhao Mingfeng was suspicious at this time: "It's strange, how do those lamas know that the virtuous brother of the country is in my Baguio Villa?" Fa Wudao: "Maybe it's the heroes who will attract it." Zhao Mingfeng nodded and said: "It makes sense, in the name of the chess of the virtuous brother of the country, it will appear at the group meeting, and those lamas are also smart, and they will find it when they get the news." ”

Zhao Chen saw that after Fang Guohuan finished reading the letter, he sat silent, especially embarrassed, and hurriedly asked, "Fang Gong, I don't know what Lama Anmu means?" Fang Guochuan sighed and said, "Anmu Lama Guo sent someone to welcome Xiao Quan, but Xiao Quan doesn't know anything at the moment, how can he accept this reality?" Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, and Fa Wu were shocked when they heard this, and Zhao Chen was surprised: "That Anmu Lama is a god and can't do it, and he knows it so quickly?" ”

Fang Guochuan said: "Lama Anmu is a high-ranking monk who seems to know all the reasons in the world and has a foreknowledge of things. When I first met the Anmu Lama in Tibet, he knew that the search for the Little Living Buddha would be on me, and that there would be results as soon as I returned to the Han Land, so he sent people to him, and these Anmu Living Buddhas had already explained in the letter. ”

Zhao Mingfeng was surprised: "It seems that Xiaoquan is a reincarnated little living Buddha of the Lamaist Sect, it is already true, is he really leaving?" Fang Guochuan sighed and said: "Yes, Xiao Quan's previous life was a very high-status lama in the Jokhang Temple, where did he come from, and where did he go back." This matter is unbelievable, I wonder if Xiaoquan can accept it? ”

Zhao Chen said: "The matter has come to this point, so I have to explain everything to Xiaoquan and try to persuade him." Since those lamas have arrived outside the village gate, I will go to receive them first, and Xiao Quan's side can only be explained by Fang Gong. Fang Guochuan said: "That's fine, settle those lamas first, and I will take your time." Subsequently, Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, and Fa Wu went to receive the lamas who came from the Jokhang Temple, and Fang Guohuan hurriedly looked for Xiaoquan.

The arrival of the lamas of the Jokhang Temple surprised Fang Guolian, he didn't expect it to come so quickly, although An Mula explained everything in the letter, Fang Guolian still felt sudden. Since Fang Guochuan experienced an adventure in Tibet, he knows that the secrets between heaven and earth and man themselves are profound and incomprehensible, but he also has some insights. This time, Xiaoquan unexpectedly became a reincarnation of Lamaism, which made Fang Guohuan even more confused, and especially added some curiosity, which seemed to touch a vague wish that he had earlier.

Fang Guolian went to the Baihua Hall to find Xiaoquan but couldn't find it, so he returned to "Ning Garden", there was not much time, and Xiaoquan also came back. As soon as he saw Fang Guolian, Xiao Quan smiled and said: "Brother Fang, a group of monks called lamas just came to the village, it seems that they were late to participate in the group of heroes, but they went a long way and rushed to a late meeting, which is ridiculous." ”

When Fang Guohuan heard this, he shook his head and sighed: "Xiaoquan, sit down, I have something to tell you." Xiao Quan said: "But what about going back to Tianyuan Temple tomorrow?" I also want to be like Brother Fang, and cultivate the supreme chess path in Tianyuan Temple. Fang Guochuan shook his head and said, "Xiaoquan, you can't go to Tianyuan Temple, there is a new place for you to go." ”

Xiao Quanwen was shocked and said, "Brother Fang, this ...... What's going on? As he spoke, his expression was in a hurry. Fang Guohuan sighed and said, "Xiaoquan, I didn't expect things to progress so quickly, let's be honest with you, those lamas you just met are here specifically for you." "Coming for me?"

Xiao Quan was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled: "Brother Fang always says some strange things these days, and I don't know those lamas, how did they come for me?" ”

Fang Guolian said: "These lamas came to the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, and they came to Jiangnan this time to welcome back to a little living Buddha who was reincarnated in Han China. When Xiao Quan heard this, he became more and more dazed and said, "What does this have to do with me?" Fang Guochuan patted Xiao Quan's shoulder and said, "Because you are the little living Buddha who was reincarnated in Lamaism." ”

"Me!?" Xiao Quan was taken aback and said, "How could it be me?" Could it be that those lamas made a mistake and grabbed people indiscriminately to make up for the number? Fang Guohuan shook his head and said: "This matter is very bizarre to say, no wonder you don't believe it, I'll tell you from the beginning." The rosary in your hand is from the Jokhang Temple, that is to say, it should be on you to recognize people by this object. ”

Xiao Quan was surprised when he heard this: "Brother Fang is saying that this string of prayer beads that I am familiar with is from the Jokhang Temple with those lamas?" Fang Guochuan said: "Yes, when I was stranded in Tibet with your eldest brother Luo Kun, I got acquainted with a senior monk of Jokhang Temple, Anmu Lama, and everyone called him a living Buddha. Lamaism has the theory of reincarnation, which is similar to the reincarnation theory that is prevalent among our Jiangnan folks, but the reincarnated people of Lamaism are all high-ranking monks who have practiced in previous lives. When I left Tibet and returned to Han China, Lama Anmu entrusted me with one of the things they had taught, to find a reincarnation of one of their teachings, and to use this string of prayer beads as a basis. ”

Xiao Quan was surprised and said, "There will be such a thing?" "I couldn't help but be stunned.

After a while, Xiao Quan shook his head and said: "No, where in the world can there be such a strange thing, although I am very familiar with this bead, I am also happy with it, maybe I have seen it in a dream, I can't conclude that I am the person that those lamas are looking for, Brother Fang might as well return this bead to them, I will not go with them." ”

Fang Guochuan shook his head and said: "No, since this matter should be on you, there must be a reason, don't shirk it easily." I don't know anything about Lamaism, and I don't know its mysteries, so I can't go into it with you, but I want to tell you one thing, you are a person with a special wisdom root aura, and according to Lamaism, you are a reincarnated Buddha body. ”

Fang Guohuan slowed down for a moment and said: "The religion in the world, whether it is Lamaism, or Buddhism and Taoism in the earth, in addition to many factors such as society and history, the most important thing is the human being, that is, the pursuit of exploring the mysteries of life and understanding the truth of everything in this world. Although there are many false theories in religion, not all of them are nonsense, and some mysteries can be solved and understood by human wisdom. ”

Fang Guochuan then said earnestly: "Xiaoquan, in life, you should make a difference and explore the truth of some things." Brother Fang wants to use chess to spread all things, but although chess can show all physics, he can't understand the cause and can't reach its roots, and it still has its limitations. You are different, you can return to your old teachings, take advantage of the internal and external conditions, and personally comprehend and comprehend the mysteries of the world. When Brother Fang took you in, he hoped that you would make a difference in the future, but I didn't expect that you had a special opportunity to be the reincarnated Buddha body of Lamaism, don't you want to understand the mystery of this? In addition, I escaped a shipwreck in the Western Ocean back then, and I went through many strange things, and thus proved your special identity, all of which seem to be a coincidence, but in fact there is some kind of inevitable connection. In a sense, religion is a way to explore the mysteries of the great road between heaven and man, and since you are a reincarnated person of Lamaism, you naturally have a different kind of spirituality, so you should seek to understand why all this truth is so, and know why it is, so as not to lose your chance. ”

Xiao Quan looked at Fang Guohuan in surprise at this time, he didn't seem to understand, he slowly shook his head and said: "Brother Fang, Xiao Quan is not going anywhere, I don't want to achieve those ways of Buddha immortals, I just want to follow Brother Fang to travel the world, even if I suffer a lot, I am not afraid, I beg you, Brother Fang, don't leave Xiao Quan alone." As he spoke, he burst into tears, and he was obviously very sad.

When Fang Guohuan saw it, his heart was sour, and he almost shed tears, looking at Xiaoquan's pitiful appearance, Fang Guohuan couldn't help but hesitate. Fang Guohuan and Xiaoquan have a deep relationship, and they can't bear to have such a sad parting. Fang Guochuan pondered for a moment, and suddenly made up his mind and said: "Xiaoquan, Brother Fang doesn't want to force you, this matter is up to your own family, if you don't want to follow the lamas who come to welcome you to Tibet and convert to Tibet, I will send them away, and then go to the Jokhang Temple in person to explain to Anmu Lama in the future, Brother Fang doesn't want to force you to change your wishes." ”

When Xiao Quan heard this, he was immediately moved to tears. Fang Guohuan stepped forward and comforted: "Actually, Brother Fang is reluctant to give you up, okay, you can think about this matter at home, I will go to meet those lamas first, and listen to your final decision tomorrow morning, Brother Fang promises that he will never force you." Xiao Quan nodded with tears in his eyes, Fang Guohuan smiled and sighed secretly.

Fang Guochuan met a lama named Soli Buzha in the Qiren Temple, and the two had also met in the Jokhang Temple before. Sori Buzha first thanked Fang Guolian for finding a little living Buddha for the Lamaism, Fang Guozhuan shook his head and said: "Teacher, don't thank me first, although the little living Buddha of your sect has been found, he may not be willing to go with you." ”

Sori Buzha said: "This matter Anmu Living Buddha has long anticipated, specially prepared a Buddha statue, this portrait is the little living Buddha in the previous life Xisang Living Buddha meditated and practiced often faced, as long as the little living Buddha saw it, there is a thought of returning." With that, Sori Buzha took a scroll from his sleeve and offered it.

When Fang Guochuan opened it to see, he saw that it was a portrait of a Buddha, simple and solemn, and it looked old. Sori Buzha said: "Anmu Living Buddha has a law, the little Living Buddha was reincarnated in the Han land, suffered a lot, and his nature was lost. ”

Fang Guochuan nodded and said, "Anmu Living Buddha knows human feelings, which is really rare. Zhao Chen said at this time: "Are all your sects looking for reincarnated people like this?" Sori Buzha said: "This sect has special rituals for finding reincarnated spirit children, which are very strict, except for this time to find the reincarnation of the Xisang Living Buddha is an exception, and I don't know about this opportunity." ”

Fang Guochuan took the Buddha statue and saw Xiaoquan, and said to him: "This Buddha statue was brought by those lamas, and it seems to have an enlightening effect on you, so you have enlightened yourself." And when he had finished speaking, he did not disturb him, but went away on his own. Xiao Quan opened the scroll and suddenly saw this Buddha statue, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It's strange, I seem to have seen it somewhere, I ...... Am I really the reincarnation of the living Buddha? ”

Xiao Quan was puzzled, and pondered: "It seems that what Brother Fang said is true, I am really a Lamaist person, what is the reason for this?" Xiao Quan then hung the Buddha statue on the wall, sat on his knees according to the Buddha statue, held the string of prayer beads in his hand, looked at the portrait and slowly calmed down, and unconsciously settled down. I don't know how many times later, Xiao Quan suddenly realized and said with relief: "I know who I am!" He hurriedly got up to find Fang Guozhuan, and when he went out of the room, he realized that it was the early morning of the next day.

Fang Guohuan had just gotten up, when he suddenly saw Xiao Quan coming in and saying, "Brother Fang, I know who I am and where I came from." When Fang Guohuan heard this, he was surprised: "Xiaoquan, ...... you?" ”

Xiao Quan sighed with emotion: "Brother Fang, I understand, it's better for me to go back with them." Fang Guochuan was surprised, and said happily: "Xiaoquan, congratulations!" Xiao Quan sighed and said: "This world is very strange and strange, I want to go back to the original place to find out and leave today." ”

Fang Guozhuan said: "I'll send you." Xiao Quan shook his head and said: "Don't work Brother Fang, as long as Brother Fang has the opportunity to see me in the future, Xiao Quan will be satisfied." With that, tears flowed. Fang Guohuan said excitedly: "Xiaoquan, Brother Fang promises you that he will definitely go to the Jokhang Temple to see you in the future." ”

Xiaoquan wanted to enter Tibet and convert to Tibet with Sori Buzha and other lamas, and immediately shook the Baguio Villa. Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, Han Xing'er and his wife sighed and gave away a large number of gold and silver utensils. In order to welcome back Xiaoquan, Sori Buzha and other lamas also brought the Lamaist Jinluan honor guard, which was very grand.

When the lamas saw Xiao Quan, they all bowed without crowns, and Xiao Quan also went all over the top of the lamas, and then changed into monk's clothes and hats. Xiao Quan endured his own sadness, and gave a deep salute to Fang Guolian, Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, Fa Wu, Song Luyang and others, and said goodbye with tears, and the lamas supported Xiao Quan's return to Jokhang Temple. Later, Xiaoquan became a senior monk of Lamaism.

After sending Xiao Quan away, Fang Guolian was stunned, and on the second day, he said goodbye to Zhao's father with Fa Wu and set off to return to Tianyuan Temple in Lianyun Mountain. The pearl plaque inlaid with the word "chess fairy" also came with it and was ready to be collected in Tianyuan Temple.

Fang Guolian and Fa Wu turned back to Tianyuan Temple in Lianyun Mountain, and they were late this day, and when they arrived at a small town, the only inn in the town was overcrowded. Fa Wu asked Fang Guohuan to eat and kill Xihou in a tea shop, and went to find a place to live by himself.

A pot of tea, Fa Wu turned back, and the other party said: "There is a family with a spacious house in the south of the town, but it is also clean, I and the master's family two dollars of silver, agreed to stay for one night." Fang Guochuan said: "It's already dark, and you can live somewhere." Then the two brothers went out of the tea shop and came to the south of the town.

When he arrived at the front of a family's house, Fa Wu opened the courtyard door, led Fang Guolian into a room in the west, put down the pearl plaque and said, "The master's house has rested, let us make it convenient for us." ”

Fang Guolian saw that this room was also simple, with two beds in the east and west, a table on the ground, an oil lamp, a pot of tea, and some household goods piled up in the corner. Fa Wu drank a bowl of tea and rested on the west bed. Fang Guohuan extinguished the oil lamp and lay on the east bed, thinking that he was about to meet the senior brothers of Tianyuan Temple, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Fang Guolian's bed is against the east wall, the wall is made of wooden boards, not very thick, so it is not very soundproof, occasionally heard the sound of men and women talking in small voices next door, Fang Guohuan knew that it was the master and his wife, so he ignored it, turned sideways, and urged his family to sleep.
