Xuanzang's understanding of Tianzhu is actually very limited, some are from some of the notes left by the predecessors of Tianzhu, and some are from some monks and Hu Shang to hear the news, these news are either outdated, or have been intentionally or unintentionally added to many other factors, so it can only be used as a reference, as for the real situation in Tianzhu, he does not dare to judge.

"This ...... I know a little bit about Tianzhu's situation, but it may be a little inaccurate, if you want to hear it, I can talk about it! Li Xiu thought for a moment before he spoke, his understanding of ancient India is indeed limited, after all, later generations of Chinese generally do not take India to heart.

"The horse is too polite, please advise!" Xuanzang heard that Li Xiu did know some news about Tianzhu, which also shocked his spirits, and he couldn't even feel the physical pain.

"Although Buddhism originated in Tianzhu, in fact, it was only popular in Tianzhu for a period of time, and the dominant position in Tianzhu has always been a religion called Brahman, this religion is very complicated, I don't know much, I only know that they seem to have three main gods, in charge of creation, protection and destruction of three kinds of divine power, in addition they also divide people into four classes, among which the Brahmins who hold the divine power are the highest, and the kings and warriors and other nobles are Kshatriyas, in the second class, both of which belong to the aristocratic ......"

Li Xiu introduced Brahmanism, that is, the predecessor of Hinduism in later generations, but all the Hinduism introduced by Li Xiu was what he understood in later generations, so there must be some differences from the more primitive Brahmanism, but it is generally the same.

Xuanzang also listened very seriously, he had heard of Brahmin before, after all, a lot of the information he collected also had the introduction of Brahmin, but Li Xiu spoke in more detail, and there were some things he had never heard of. Especially when Li Xiu talked about the "untouchables" outside the four classes, that is, the so-called "slut" class, he had a better understanding of Tianzhu.

"Now Brahmins still occupy the main religious position, but a few years ago there was a young monarch in the north of Tianzhu, called King Jieri, this person unified in the north of Tianzhu, although he is a Brahmin, but the attitude towards religion is very open, especially the support for Buddhism, which also makes Buddhism in Tianzhu to be revived, these years we have a lot of monks in the Tang Dynasty, it is related to this!" Li Xiu finally continued.

"I see, thank you for the puzzle!" After listening to Li Xiu's introduction, Xuanzang thanked Li Xiu again.

"You're welcome, Master Xuanzang, you want to go to Tianzhu, this journey is too far, I think you might as well prepare for a few years before making plans!" Li Xiu spoke again at this time and persuaded him, he also admired Xuanzang very much, and with Xuanzang's wisdom, even if he didn't go to Tianzhu to learn scriptures, he could become a generation of famous monks in the future.

"The poor monk understands the good intentions of the horse, but I am ready for this matter, and everything will be done according to the poor monk's plan!" Xuanzang heard Li Xiu's persuasion, first thanked him, and then said calmly.

Hearing Xuanzang say this, Li Xiu couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, Xuanzang had already made a grand wish to go west to learn scriptures, even Li Shimin couldn't let him turn back, let alone himself, and if Xuanzang changed his mind so easily, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to get the scriptures.

Thinking of this, Li Xiu didn't say anything, and then said goodbye to Xuanzang and left, this medical hall is located in Chang'an City, and it is very close to the imperial city, when Li Xiu pulled Xuanzang out of the imperial city, he immediately placed him in this medical hall, but he didn't expect him to wake up after a day of coma.

In the next few days, Xuanzang recuperated in the hospital with peace of mind, Li Xiu would also visit him when he had free time, and by the way, he also talked to him about the westward journey to learn scriptures, and from Xuanzang's answer, Li Xiu found that the westward journey has become an obsession in Xuanzang's heart, which is both an opportunity and a dilemma for cultivators, and if you want to get rid of this obsession and seek a higher realm, Xuanzang must complete this westward journey to learn scriptures.

Ten days later, Xuanzang's body also recovered most of it, this day Li Xiu did not visit him, but stayed at home to give lectures to the mothers, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai also came, but just after noon, Li Xiu suddenly received a report from his subordinates, Xuanzang actually took the initiative to visit him.

Hearing the news, Li Xiu also hurried to the front hall, only to see Xuanzang standing in the hall, and saw Li Xiu hurriedly saluting him and saying, "The poor monk sees the horse!" ”

"Your body hasn't fully recovered, why don't you recuperate for a few more days?" Li Xiu said to Xuanzang with a smile at this time, and at the same time asked him to sit down, and then someone immediately served tea.

"The poor monk's body is no longer harmed, and he actually came here today to ask for a horse!" I saw Xuanzang first salute with his hands together, and then directly explained his intentions, he was frank to anyone, and he never seemed to tell lies, nor would he beat around the bush.

"Oh? What's up? Li Xiu didn't rush to agree when he heard this, but asked rhetorically, he was afraid that Xuanzang would ask him to help out of the customs, although he could indeed help in this matter, but he didn't want to help Xuanzang get out, after all, this might anger Li Shimin, and it was not in the interests of Datang.

"The poor monk wants to see someone!" Xuanzang spoke again.

"Huh? Who do you want to see and ask me for help, is it a dignitary? Li Xiu asked again in surprise when he heard this.

"The horse misunderstood, this person is not a dignitary, but a prisoner of the ranks!" Xuanzang said with a calm face.

"Prisoner? Who is this person? Li Xiu couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said, There are many kinds of prisoners, if it is a prisoner who is not very important, it is naturally nothing to take Xuanzang to meet him as him.

"This person has actually heard of it, and it is the one who dedicated the fake Buddha tooth to the prince." Xuanzang said solemnly at this time.

"That monk, you say? I understand! Li Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood that the person who offered the diamond as a Buddha's tooth to Li Shimin was a monk from the lion country, and the lion country and Tianzhu are close together, and since he is a monk, he must have some understanding of the Buddhist situation in Tianzhu, which is why Xuanzang wants to see that monk.

However, the monk committed the crime of bullying the king, and now it is estimated that he has been sent to the prison of Dali Temple, and he has no acquaintances in Dali Temple, and it may be difficult to see the other party, which also makes him a little worried, but at this moment, Li Xiu suddenly patted his head, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Look at my head, why did you forget them?" ”
