Chapter 18 Xuanzang

The above is what happened to Tianzhu so far, although it did encounter great difficulties in the early stage, but everything went smoothly in the later stage, in general, it is still developing on a good side, as long as things go smoothly next, not to mention the complete conquest of Tianzhu in a short period of time, but it is still no problem to recover the Ring Sun Dynasty.

As for the inclusion of Ah San in the Tang Dynasty national system, this doesn't matter, it's just a name anyway, as for being degraded to a slave, this is not necessary.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has conquered Nanyang, the number of slaves here can basically meet the consumption of industrial construction within the Tang Dynasty, and Li Zhen is not a murderer, but he has no hobby of turning people into slaves when he has nothing to do.

Ah San is indeed wonderful, but that is the later generation, it is only the seventh century, Ah San is still very good, especially now that Datang has just abolished their caste system, they are grateful to Datang, at this time, if Datang takes advantage of the situation and uses cultural means to assimilate Ah San, maybe it will not take a generation to turn these people into the ultimate supporters of Datang.

And to tell the truth, Tianzhu is in Li Zhen's plan, and there is no plan to include it in the country, sooner or later it will be divided out, Datang only needs to control a part of the southern port and the northern plain, as for other places, Li Chengqian will occupy a part, and the rest of Li Zhen will also find various names to divide it - to be honest, Li Zhen really doesn't like Tianzhu this place, and I don't know why, England wants to regard this place as its own forbidden land, And giving up Australia, which has more abundant resources, Li Zhen has never understood this.

However, his current focus is not on this, with the success of the Tang Dynasty on the Tianzhu battlefield, the first batch of loot was also sent back to Lingnan by the fleet, but with the delivery of the loot, Wang Xuance also sent Li Zhen a trouble that was not a trouble.

said that it was troublesome, because Li Zhen had just overshadowed other people's religions, and said that it was not troublesome, because Wang Xuance sent just a monk.

"The poor monk has seen His Royal Highness King Yue."

This is a monk who looks fifty years old, but Li Zhen knows that even if this monk is counted as a virtual age, he is only forty-one years old this year, and the reason why he looks so old is because on the westward journey, this monk has suffered a lot - this monk is called Xuanzang.

According to historical records, he was indeed in the Ring Sun Empire during this time period, and the King of the Ring Sun respected him very much, if there was no Tang Dynasty attacking the Ring Sun Empire, in the next Ring Sun King would take Xuanzang as the main commentator, and hold a Buddhist debate conference in Qunu City, 18 kings in Wuyin, 3,000 Theravada Buddhist scholars and 2,000 people from other ways participated. At that time, Xuanzang spoke and let people ask questions, but no one could criticize them. For a while, he was famous for five seals, and was revered as the "Mahayana Heaven" by the Mahayana and the "Liberation Heaven" by the Hinayana Celestial Heaven.

After the Buddhist debate conference, Xuanzang would resign to the king of the precepts, but the king insisted that Xuanzang participate in the five-year, 75-day uncovered conference.

After this conference, Xuanzang returned to China, and returned to Chang'an in the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, and was frantically welcomed by the people of Chang'an (Taoism and customs, dumping the city), and later lived in seclusion in Hongfu Temple, translating the scriptures brought back from Tianzhu, and compiling the "Tang Dynasty Western Regions".

But this is all a historical thing, in this time the king of the ring died early, Xuanzang only just got acquainted with the king of the day not long after Qunu City was occupied by the Tang Dynasty, Xuanzang stood up and asked the Tang army not to kill the ring as a Tang person, Wang Xuance was shocked for a while after learning about Xuanzang's experience, and gave him all kinds of preferential treatment.

After learning that Xuanzang wanted to return to China, he took it upon himself to arrange him on a cargo ship, let Xuanzang return to Lingnan by sea, and wrote a letter to introduce him to Li Zhen (as I said before, Wang Xuance is a very superstitious person, and he is different from others who only believe in one religion, he belongs to the kind of person who worships God when he sees him), hoping that Xuanzang and Li Zhen will establish friendship.

Li Zhen was also a little crying and laughing at this gift, but after all, this was the intention of his subordinates, and Li Zhen was also very interested in this legendary Tang monk, so he simply met Xuanzang.

"Master Xuanzang doesn't have to be polite." Li Zhen stretched out his hand and raised it falsely: "Master, please take a seat." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Xuanzang straightened up and sat down next to him.

"The master traveled west to seek scriptures, and traveled 50,000 miles of asceticism, which is really great perseverance and great wisdom, and this king admires it." Li Zhen is not polite in this remark, Li Zhen is really impressed by this high monk who has promoted cultural exchanges between the East and the West in history.

He doesn't like Buddhism, that's because Buddhism is mostly a place of dirt and filth, and how many heinous sins have been exempted from their sins and escaped the punishment of the law because of the sentence 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground'?

How many monks have made a lot of money in the name of the Buddha - only to see the Buddha gilded, not the Buddha to cross the people, although this is biased, but since this sentence can be recognized by most people, this proves that this is still reasonable.

However, although there are many fake monks in Buddhism, this does not mean that there are no good people in it - for example, Xuanzang, in order to find the true meaning of Buddhism, went out of the Western Regions, passed through Central Asia, spared a big one, and came to the Tianzhu Circle, with a journey of more than 50,000 miles.

At least Li Zhen thinks that she can't do it to Xuanzang's level, but it is precisely because she can't do it that she admires those who can do it.

"The poor monk is ashamed." Hearing Li Zhen talk about this, Xuanzang not only was not complacent, but laughed at himself: "It's all to blame for the poor monk who didn't collect good information before leaving, if the poor monk knows that it only takes half a month to take the sea route from Datang to Tianzhu, why should the poor monk run so many roads in vain?" ”

"It's no wonder that the master, after all, the development of sea routes was only started by this king last year, and no one knew that Datang and Tianzhu would be so close before that." Li Zhen said with a smile, this Xuanzang is really interesting, if it was someone else, he had done such a big thing, and he would have been mentioned by others, he would have been proud a long time ago, where would he be like him, he actually showed a remorseful expression.

What's more, you don't want to think about how you went abroad back then? You were smuggled out of the country back then, and you were caught by the generals, and if you weren't a Buddhist, maybe you would have been locked up in prison.

Do you still want to go by sea?

How do you go by sea without a boat?

Do you want to learn to be like this, drifting along the ocean current on a small sampan?

Are you sure you can drift to Tianzhu instead of the Wa Kingdom?
