Ximing Temple, is also one of the best temples in Chang'an City, its former site has been the residence of Sui Yangsu and Tang Wei King Li Tai, after the death of Li Tai, its homestead foundation was collected by the government, but soon Tang Gaozong recovered from illness because of filial piety to the prince, so he set up a temple here, named Ximing. Originally, Gaozong planned to set up a Taoist temple and a Buddhist temple in Yankangfang, but the person in charge reported that the foundation was too narrow, so it was all used to build Ximing Temple.

To the thirteenth year of the Great Calendar, Ximing Temple has ten courtyards with a total of 4,000 houses, has always been the largest lecture place in the Tang Empire, the tile in it, the caisson well, the murals, the calligraphy are all the first class of Chang'an, known as "the corridor hall and the platform, the flying surprise of the Han, the gold shop algae building, the dazzling glow...... The solemn prosperity, although Liang Tongtai, Wei Yongning, can not reach. Xuanzang, Fazang and other high monks have stayed here, the eighth day of the first eight ushered in the glazed Buddha bones, but also the temple is full of gold and jade to dress up the treasure tent, incense car, Hua, cover, in the main hall of the Buddha hall with the Buddha bone relics held by the glazed letter, it is really dazzling, the style is extraordinary.

At this moment, the monk Fajing, the head of the temple, is standing on the steps of the Buddha hall with a group of Ximing monks, and it is said that His Majesty the Emperor will send the prince and the county lord to come in person, and raise the broken hair in front of the glazed Buddha bones to worship the relics.

If even the prince is like this, then do you still have to worry about the Ximing Temple not being busy and the incense is prosperous?

When Fajing was immersed in a beautiful outlook, someone at the gate of the courtyard outside said: "There is a record of Honglu Temple to see!" ”

Before the voice was finished, a young man in a green shirt walked up to the treasure hall of the Buddha Hall, which was dressed by Liu Kaixian of Taofen Shed, claiming that he had come to observe the authenticity of the Buddha's bones first.

Fajing's mind didn't react for a while, he only knew that the crown prince and his daughter Tang'an County Lord would come soon, so he was full of thought that this "Honglu Temple Record" had come to arrange the matter first, so he hurriedly stepped forward with a group of monks to greet him.

"Where are the Buddha's bones?" This Liu Kaixian is also a bold person, looking at the magnificent caisson of the Buddhist hall of Ximing Temple, he swaggered and said to Fajing.

Fajing didn't know if there was such a person in the Honglu Temple of the imperial court, and after relaxing for a while, he asked the monk Fajian of Ximing Temple to take out the relics in the glass cup and give him an inspection.

As a result, the Honglu Temple Recorder frowned and said, "It's not that it's a bone relic, how can it be red?" ”

Fa Jing and Fa Jian were stunned for a while, and looked at the relics inside, they were obviously white and round, why did this record say that they were red?

"It's white."

"No, it's red, you see there's a red glow here." Liu Kai pointed first, and saw that all the monks had blank expressions, so he said impatiently, "Take out the Buddha bones and put them in my palm, I will point out to you where there is red, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the county lord will come soon, if they show them the poor pool at that time, it will be bad!" ”

Fajing was still ignorant, and Fa Jian's hand was faster, so he really took out the Buddha bone relics from the glass cup and held them in the palm of the "Honglu Temple Record".

"Excuse me, where are the red blemishes?"

"Whoosh!" A gust of wind almost lifted the monk's robes of Fajing and Fajian - the "Honglu Temple Record" grabbed the Buddha's bones with his backhand, turned around like a fly, and ran out of the Buddha Hall Treasure Hall frantically.

"Ahhhh Immediately, dozens of monks fell backwards in shock, and about a few seconds later, Fa Jing's head was covered with beads of sweat, pointing in the direction where Liu Kaixian ran away and shouting, "Chase, chase!" ”

Soon, the entire Ximing Temple jumped with chickens and dogs, and countless monks and tenants in the hall ran out from everywhere in a hurry, chasing Liu Kaixian, to snatch back the Buddha's bone relics.

And Liu Kaixian flexibly ran left and right in various buildings, leaving waves of people behind, and by the way, he took off his green shirt of pretending to be an official and threw it into the well of Ximing Temple (this well was dug by Yang Su), and then slipped out of the north courtyard gate of Ximing Temple, and actually rushed to Guangdefang.

The monks of Ximing Temple also chased after them, because they knew that if the crown prince came soon, if there was no such glazed Buddha bone, it would be regarded as a crime of deceit.

At this moment, the crown prince Li Shi and his daughter Tang'an County Lord are riding in the same car, surrounded by the East Palace Guards and the Eunuch Temple, and are coming to Yankangfang.

"What? Gao Yue's cheeky scoundrel not only hit the head, but also sentenced him to the same level, and awarded the official Jixian orthography! Hearing Huo Jingliang next to her say this, Tang An was almost about to collapse, did she think there was something wrong with the country's system?

So Tang An complained to his father, but Li Shi was not so excited, "Gao Yue is crazy, and he seems to have some real talents and practicality, don't underestimate him." ”

"My daughter saw him twice, the first time she cheated on me in Keju, and the second time she was by the Qujiang River in Shengdaofang, watching him seduce the little lady of the good family - it can be seen that this scoundrel is doing dirty deeds all the time." Tang An already had a bad impression of Gao Yue.

As soon as the result was finished, Tang An saw in the car that a tall white-clothed gentleman by the wall of the fang, carrying a bamboo hat on his back, was it Gao Yue? I saw him along the side of the street, hurrying towards Guangdefang, and disappeared in an instant.

"Dazzled?" Tang An rubbed his eyes, thinking that it wouldn't be such a coincidence!

In fact, Tang An didn't guess wrong, in the secluded bamboo forest next to the Jingzhao Mansion in Guangdefang, that Liu Kaixian stopped, holding the white and shiny Buddha bone relics in his hand, and there was a deep well next to him.

"Don't, don't ......" Fa Jian and other monks of Ximing Temple who were chasing after hurriedly stopped, stretched out their hands, and begged Liu Kaixian not to act rashly.

Behind Liu Kaixian, several men came out at this moment, with different costumes, some wearing Taoist feather robes, some wearing the colorful robes of the Shence Army, some wearing the soap robes of the Long March athletes, and some dressed as doormen, which dazzled the monks for a while, and they didn't know what the identities of this group of people were.

But they were all carrying big bamboo baskets, lined up on the ground, then Liu Kaixian smiled and spoke, "All the mages wear gold and silver, but we are hungry and frozen, if you want to return the Buddha's bones, please send two hundred yuan immediately!" ”

Fa Jian thought at this time that he must not back down, so he said, "This west side is the Jingzhao Mansion Mansion, and you are too bold to dare to blackmail Ximing Temple?" ”

The man in the shirt of the Shence Army laughed, blew the wooden flint in his hand, lit the torch, and Liu Kaixian quickly held the Buddha bone close to the flame.

"I can't help it!" Fa Jian and the other monks immediately shouted.

"How about burning this filth and throwing the sediment into the well spring!"

"No, never."

"Then take the money."

Fa Jian glanced at the left and right, and then made a plan to delay the army, "Please wait here for a while......

Before the word "wait" was finished, Liu Kaixian suddenly grew his mouth and raised the Buddha bone relic.

"N-to-ah!" Fa Jian and the other monks all raised their mouths and shouted these three words leisurely at the same time.

However, after the loud grunt, Liu Kaixian swallowed the relics without hesitation.
