And when Wang Xuance saw such a pious Master Yuanrong, he immediately led all the envoys of the Tang Dynasty Mission to follow their example and perform these three prostrations. After the ritual was completed, the Tang envoys who had never seen it before also saw the clear image of the Buddha through this gap. Not long after they finished looking, when they looked inside, the image of the Buddha gradually became blurry and disappeared......

I only heard that this Yuanrong Master followed the three disciples to make a big bow to Wang Xuance in a dignified manner, and Wang Xuance hurriedly bowed and said, "What is the Master doing, Xuan Ce can't afford it?" ”

Master Yuanrong's eyes were filled with tears and said: "Since the old monk entered this Buddha Shadow Temple, it has been more than 50 years now, and for more than 50 years, although he has been getting along with this Buddha Shadow day and night, but such a clear image as now, this is the second time I have seen it." The first time was when Master Xuanzang came. In the following years, although I have seen it intermittently a few times, but it is vague, I never thought that Wang Changshi, as an ordinary layman, can have such a wish, which is not only the great fortune of my Buddhism, but also the result of Wang Changshi's cultivation. ”

These words flattered Wang Xuance and others, as for this cultivation, they really can't afford it, because before contacting Master Xuanzang, to be honest, this Wang Xuance doesn't know much about Buddhism. Since Master Xuanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty and sent these five Indias, he has more or less come to know and understand religion.

As for the reason, he didn't know what the reason was for him to measure the footprints of the Buddha and be able to see the clear image of the Buddha, but since he was facing the master's kindness, he didn't want to have too many excuses. So, with his words, after a polite greeting. I heard Wang Xuance say to Master Yuanrong: "One of the aspects of my mission to the Five India is to uphold a sincere heart, pay homage to the Buddha, and pray for the smooth wind and rain of the Tang Dynasty and the health and happiness of the people; Since I have seen such a magnificent scene in this Buddha Shadow Temple, I should give this purple robe and the Seven Treasures Ring Sword to your temple in accordance with Your Majesty's will to make offerings to the Buddha. ”

Between the words, he motioned to the two brothers, went and took out the two treasures, and presented them.

Wang Xuance immediately took the two treasures from the hands of the two brothers and handed them to Master Yuanrong with his own hands. In the face of the withering of Buddhism in this Wuchang country, we can see that the Tang Emperor personally sent an envoy to this Buddha Shadow Temple to present robes and precepts. Master Yuanrong was naturally quite pleased, and in response to such a favor, he accepted these two treasures in a dignified and solemn manner.

After everyone watched and saluted in this Buddha Shadow Cave again, they followed Master Yuanrong out of this Buddha Shadow Cave.

"Wang Changshi, I heard that when you sent me five India for the second time, Master Jiexian gave you this Buddha tooth relic to the Tang Dynasty, can you do this?" Master Yuanrong still kindly asked him about it.

Since they returned to the Tang Dynasty, this Venerable Master has told many eminent monks about this matter, so it is not a secret, and this Buddha tooth relic is also flowing into the Tang Dynasty. So this Wang Xuance replied dignifiedly: "That's true, at that time, I repeatedly shirked, but Master Jiexian always told that this Buddhism will flourish in the East, and this Buddha's tooth relic should be introduced to the East, so under his repeated requests, I brought it back to my Tang Dynasty, and now in the palace of my Tang Kingdom, it is safely enshrined and blessed by tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty." ”

"This Buddha treasure, what I am most afraid of is dust, since I can enjoy such treatment in this Tang Kingdom, the old monk is also content. I don't know if Wang Changshi can know that this Buddha tooth relic has also been enshrined in my Buddha Shadow Temple** for a hundred years? "Master Harmony, as he walked, said to them.

Hearing this, Wang Xuance was also taken aback, he never expected that this Buddha tooth relic would be so related to this Buddha Shadow Temple. Then he hurriedly said: "This Ring Sage Master didn't mention this matter back then, Xuan Ce really doesn't know, please don't blame the mage."

"Alas, how can I blame you for this, even if this Buddha tooth relic is still here, at present, my Wuchang country cannot carry forward the Dharma, and it is unintentional to stay. Go, there will be an old monk to take you, go to the place where the Buddha tooth relics were enshrined before, and have a look," Lisuo's words, as soon as he spoke, he immediately led Wang Xuance and others to the place where the Buddha tooth relics were enshrined before.

After this Daxiong Treasure Palace, come to the northwest corner of this main hall, a place of about 100 steps, there is a stupa about six zhang high, only to see that this stupa is all made of mountain stones of the same color, although each stone is different in size, but the pile is tightly seamless. Looking from afar, it is enough to see how old he is, only to see that after many years of wind and sun, many stones have been weathered, but he does not lose his due majesty and dignity.

"Arrived, this is the place where the Buddha tooth relics were enshrined before, this pagoda has been built for more than 500 years, when the king of our Wuchang country invited this Buddha tooth relic, it has been enshrined in this pagoda, more than 300 years ago, because of the withering of this Buddhism in my Wuchang country, this Buddha tooth relics fell into Central India, and finally somehow, they entered this Nalanda Temple, and enshrined until Wang Changshi brought it back to the Tang Dynasty" Master Yuanrong, between the words, led them to push open the door of this pagoda, I saw that there was nothing inside this pagoda, just an empty pagoda, but despite this, it was still clean and looked very comfortable.

When Wang Xuance heard this, he immediately respectfully led everyone and saluted sincerely, and learned more about the past and present lives of this Buddha tooth relic......

After viewing the stupa where the Buddha tooth relic was enshrined, Venerable Yuanrong led everyone to the northwest corner of the stupa and kindly told them that this was once a place where the Buddha walked, and that the Buddha had used to use this Buddha Shadow Temple as a Dharma propagation site since he subdued the Great Dragon King. As he spoke, he walked along the place where the Buddha had been walking and walked to another stupa.

"This is the place where the Buddha expounded the true nature of the Dharma and talked about the five aggregates, the eighteen worlds, and the twelve places, after the Buddha ascended to heaven, in order to thank him for his kindness, he built this stupa here, and this stupa is more than 300 years earlier than the pagoda that I just saw to enshrine the Buddha's tooth relic." Master Yuanrong once again explained to them the ruins of the Buddha Shadow Temple.

Of course, in the face of the relics of Buddhism, Wang Xuance and others also listened to it really, saw it clearly, and asked it thoroughly. After observing the place where the Dharma was preached, and then under the leadership of Venerable Yuanrong, I looked at a large rock not far from the mountain gate, which used to be the place where the Buddha washed his robe when he preached the Dharma again, and to this day, the traces of the robe are still faintly visible.

At this point, the observation of this Buddha Shadow Temple can be regarded as a temporary end...... And Wang Xuance still has a lot of doubts in his heart, how will Master Yuanrong answer them? Please see the next ......
