Li Tai was dumbfounded, and suddenly the whole person was stunned.

This monk is really planning to go to the west?

Xuanzang once again gave the Buddha salute and said: "Amitabha, how did His Royal Highness King Wei know what was going on in the heart of the poor monk?" ”

Li Fangchen sent someone to take out the entire volume of Journey to the West that had been written and handed it to Xuanzang, "You are not allowed to take it away, let alone promote Buddhism, only you can read it." Otherwise, this king doesn't mind killing a monk! ”

Xuanzang suddenly felt that the book in his hand weighed a thousand catties, and perhaps all kinds of mysteries before could be solved through this.

"I don't know if the little monk can talk in the village for a few days, just a bowl of cooked rice a day."

"That's right."

Li Fangchen pulled Li Tai away, and Xuanzang sat directly in the hall, opened Journey to the West and began to read it.

This reading was seven days, eating and sleeping, and never putting the book down.

This is a story written by King Qin, and the story written in the book is also closely related to Buddhism.

Although it is a biography, the story in it is not thought-provoking.

Respect the Tao and suppress the Buddha? Respect the Buddha and suppress the Tao?

No, in Xuanzang's eyes, this book completely exposes the cruelty of the world.

Why do some monsters have a backstage and can sit back and hurt people's lives, why are they obviously learning scriptures from the West, but the difficulties along the way are set up by Heaven, Taoism, and Buddhism.

Among them, the Zen master of Guanyin Academy, who is most memorable to Xuanzang, conspired with the bear monster because of his greed for robes.

And what about Datang?

Buddhism is not governed by the world, but it secretly continues to promote Taoism and attract followers.

Why was King Qin so disdainful when he saw himself performing Buddhist rituals, does all of this illustrate a problem.

King Qin, no, it should be in the eyes of the royal family, who is only afraid of disgust more than joy for Buddhism, right?

To use a more appropriate word to describe Buddhism, I'm afraid it is a moth!

Look at Taoism, since Li Tang founded the country, because of Yuan Tiangang's relationship, it was suppressed in the early days.

Later, it was collected by His Royal Highness King Qin, and made indelible contributions to the subsequent development of the Tang Dynasty.

In the gunpowder workshop, there are still three adults, from Taoism.

In addition, Taoism also has a living immortal Sun Simiao, and in the realm of Sun Laodao, Xuanzang can only sigh.

And what about Buddhism?

Collecting money, collecting money, or collecting money.

In addition to money, how sincere are those who are dedicated to the Buddha?

Don't say that other temples, just Daxiangguo Temple, the involvement of it makes Xuanzang feel cold.

In the past, I always felt that to serve the Buddha, it was natural to take the best things.

At this moment, Xuanzang seemed to have an epiphany, got up and called the waiter, asking to see King Qin again.

I was told that His Royal Highnesses King Qin and King Wei were fishing in the fields at the moment.

So under the guidance of the messenger, Xuanzang walked out of the other courtyard and traveled all the way to the field.

At this moment, the kings of Qin and Wei were dressed as farmers, rolling up their trouser legs and groping for something in the rice field.

"Alas! Second brother, I caught it. Quick, Basket! ”

Li Fangchen hurriedly came to his side and turned around to reveal the wooden basket behind him.

Li Tai grabbed something from the mud with both hands and put it in the basket.

Although Xuanzang is not farming, it is only what it is.

The rice fields in Qinwangzhuang are irrigated by river water, and naturally there will be loaches by the river into it, and catching loaches is also one of the few pleasures that Li Fangchen and Li Tai have on weekdays.

Seeing Xuanzang arrive, Li Fangchen straightened up, beckoned to him, and motioned for him to come over.

Xuanzang hesitated slightly, and his foot was full of mud, but his Buddhist robe was spotless.

He hesitated, but stepped into the mud.

It was a little uncomfortable to walk, and it took a long time to walk to Li Fangchen's side.

"Your Highness......"

"Carry it!"

Li Fangchen directly handed the basket behind him to Xuanzang, and at the same time blocked Xuanzang's mouth in disguise.

After catching a few more loaches, Li Tai laughed, "I can improve my food tonight!" ”

Xuanzang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had an idea in his heart to pour out all the loaches in the basket and release them.

But reason told him that he couldn't do that.

Li Fangchen saw Xuanzang's discomfort and said with a smile: "Why, can't you get used to killing?" ”

"Amitabha, the Buddha told me that if you don't open the precept of killing, everything has a spirit."

"Then your Buddha doesn't eat meat?"

Xuanzang shook his head, "The Buddha feeds the eagle with his body." ”

"Since everything has a spirit, why does your Buddha eat grains?"

Xuanzang explained: "Grains are a godsend, why don't you eat them? ”

Li Fangchen smiled: "God-given grains? As far as this king knows, the grains were determined by generations of human ancestors. If you push back another thousand years, is there something wrong with the sticky hair and blood of the human race? ”

Xuanzang didn't answer these words, but raised his hand and pointed into the distance, "Your Highness, in those houses, there are cattle, sheep and other animals, right?" ”

"Those? That's not it, your ears aren't bright! ”

Seeing what Xuanzang was referring to, Li Fangchen couldn't help but laugh, referring to the greenhouse.

"Qingque, let's go ashore and take Master Xuanzang around Qinwangzhuang."

"Okay!"

At present, bean sprouts are raised in the greenhouse, because the eldest grandson loves to eat, and he has to send a batch to the palace every few days.

When Xuanzang saw it, he was a little surprised, he never thought that without the moisture of the sun, he could still grow vegetables.

Through Li Fangchen's introduction, what is even more amazing is that this dish only matures for a few days.

Followed by the barn, the house of chickens and ducks, which made Xuanzang feel a little uncomfortable, and then in the cattle and sheep house, Xuanzang couldn't help but sigh and said: "Your Highness, without the sky, they are not free." ”

It seems that Xuanzang is still a member of the ancient animal protection organization?

Existence is reasonable, although Li Fangchen is not satisfied with Xuanzang's opinion, he will not reprimand the other party for fake compassion.

"What is freedom with them? Life and death are not in your own hands, so why do you need to be free? ”

Out of the barn, Xuanzang sighed and said, "Your Highness, if you lock people in it, I'm afraid you will already go crazy." ”

Li Fangchen said: "But this king will not lock people up in it, since Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, and this king raised them, why can't they repay this king?" ”

"Such a reward will cost them their lives!"

Li Fangchen stopped, "So what?" Natural selection, if it is not the human race that stands in front of you and me today, but the tiger and leopard, do you think they will reason with humans? ”

"But we are the spirits of all things!"

"Have all things ever agreed? The reason why people can come to this day is only because people have more wisdom and knowledge! ”

"Your Highness......"

Xuanzang never thought that His Royal Highness King Qin was so decisive and not kind to all living beings.

"Wait until the king has changed his clothes, and then I will argue with you."

It's not that Li Fangchen doesn't want to continue talking, but the mud on his body gets in the way.

After waiting for a stick of incense in the main hall, Li Fangchen reappeared, it seemed that he had been scrubbed, and the mud on his hands and face had long disappeared.

On the other hand, Xuanzang is quite dilapidated, the monk's robe has been stained with mud, and there is still a lot of dirt on his body.

is different from Master Xuanzang of the Great Xiangguo Temple when he came, Xuanzang today is more pure and more like a Buddhist monk.

"Sit and drink tea."

"Your Highness."

I didn't see the figure of His Royal Highness King Wei, it seems that His Royal Highness King Qin didn't want His Royal Highness King Wei to know about the next words.
