The Daxiong Treasure Hall of Wuxian Temple is not big, and the statue of the Buddha is certainly not golden and a little tattered.

This gap is very big, you must know that in Liu Minghua's heart, the Great Ci'en Temple is splendid, solemn and magnificent!

Grandma Liu began to incense at this time, which is called a solemn sù mu, which is really respectful like a god!

Liu Minghua smiled bitterly. This will not be the case with future temples! In the future, no matter what kind of gods and Buddhas the temple is, at least the decoration is splendid! Pay the money first when you enter the door, otherwise you will not be eligible to worship. Those so-called monks just regard the Buddha as a cash cow.

In comparison, the monks of the Tang Dynasty at this time were very dedicated.

Grandma Liu knelt reverently, chanting words in her mouth, lest a trace of disrespect would provoke the Buddha to blame.

Liu Minghua sighed and knelt down to bow. Thanks to him for crossing the Tang Dynasty, there will be such relatives and family members.

Next, it is necessary to complete the last procedure of worshipping the Buddha from ancient times to the present - that is, incense money!

When a box full of money was taken out, the poor monks immediately smiled.

Grandma Liu smiled and let out a long breath. After worshipping the Buddha and making a wish, the old man had a heart.

Now, with her grandchildren around her and Grandma Liu in good spirits, her body will definitely live a long and healthy life.

Liu Minghua was in a good mood when he saw his grandmother so happy. This is a happy family!

At this moment, the master said that Xuanzang is back?

When Liu Minghua saw Tang Xuanzang, he stepped forward excitedly and said, "Oh, this is Master Xuanzang?" It's a blessing! Well. What about your apprentices? ”

Tang Xuanzang was a little dizzy and said, "This donor ...... My apprentice? ”

Liu Minghua nodded and said: "Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk, White Dragon Horse!" ”

"Huh?" Tang Xuanzang was stupid, looking at Liu Minghua's gaze, a little bit like that. Who is this?

Liu Minghua patted Tang Xuanzang's shoulder and said, "Come on, Master Xuanzang, you and I hit it off at first sight, let's have a long talk!" Well, you can tell a story, a story of learning from the West! ”

"Story?" Tang Xuanzang looked at Liu Minghua and was confused.

Liu Minghua coughed. Said seriously: "Let's talk about the Sui Dynasty era." There is a little monk called Tang Seng! When this Tang monk grew up, he wanted to go to the west to learn scriptures. It's just that in the early Tang Dynasty. The state is preliminary. Boundaries are unstable. Leaving the country is not permitted. In the first year of Zhenguan, Tang Seng applied several times for 'customs clearance documents' to travel west to seek the law, but was not approved. This incident did not dispel Tang Seng's idea of traveling west to seek the Dharma. He was determined to look for an opportunity to travel west. But the punishment for private border passes is heavier than private border passes, so his decision is very dangerous.

In the third year of Zhenguan, Chang'an suffered a catastrophe and allowed the people to find their own way out, and Tang Seng took the opportunity to sneak out of the customs among the victims. That year, Tang Seng was just twenty-seven years old. From this day on, he embarked on a path full of unknowns.

When Tang Seng arrived at the boundary of Liangzhou, he lived for more than a month, and spoke for the altar of the local monks, which was very popular. Liangzhou is a metropolis in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu Province and is an important town. At that time, in order to prevent the invasion of the Turkic army of Jieli Khan, Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, received a holy decree from the imperial court: to block the border pass and prohibit people from traveling west. When Tang Seng planned to continue westward, the officers and soldiers guarding the pass in Liangzhou did not dare to open and close the passage on their own initiative, so they had to report to Li Daliang in advance. Li Daliang knew Tang Seng's reputation and asked his subordinates to convey his order: not allowed to travel west to learn scriptures, and return to Beijing immediately.

Tang Seng suddenly fell into a dilemma. But there is no endless road, and there is a monk named Huiwei in Liangzhou who helped him. Huiwei is the leader of Buddhism in the Hexi area and is very authoritative. After Huiwei learned of Li Daliang's restrictions, he decided to help Tang Seng. He sent two disciples, Hui Lin and Dao Quan, to escort Tang Seng out of the customs secretly. During the day, the officers and soldiers were very well defended and could not get out of the pass, so they found a no-man's place in the middle of the night and sneaked out of the city along the ropes.

Tang Seng was escorted by two monks, Hui Lin and Dao Quan, and slept in the open air along the way, traveling day and night, and arrived in Guazhou a few days later. Duguda, the assassin of Guazhou, respects Buddhism, and hears that Master Tang Seng has come and is warmly welcomed. At this time, the official document of Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, who visited Tang Seng, soon followed. They became suspicious of Tang Seng's identity. An official named Li Chang privately showed the official document to Tang Seng and asked, 'Is this the person?' Tang Seng hesitated and didn't dare to answer. Li Chang said again: "Please tell the truth, if you are Tang Seng, I will find a way for you." Tang Seng had to tell the truth. Li Chang, who knew the truth, was moved by Tang Seng's actions and spirit, tore up the documents in front of Tang Seng, and let him set off as much as he could.

After leaving Guazhou, Tang Seng did not dare to openly follow the official road in order to avoid the investigation of the government, but he had to follow the official road to avoid getting lost, but there was a danger of encountering officers and soldiers at any time.

Before in Guazhou, although Tang Seng also encountered difficulties, it was basically a smooth journey. The nine-hundred-mile journey from Guazhou to Yiwu was the most difficult part of Tang Seng's westward journey to seek scriptures.

The biggest natural features of Guazhou are deserts and high winds. After Tang Seng said goodbye to Li Chang, the situation was very bad. First of all, the horse he rode when he came died, and the two monks from Liangzhou also left him one after another, plus the road ahead was difficult, no one was willing to risk leading the way for him, Tang Seng was worried. At this moment, there was a Hu man, Shi Pantuo, who was willing to walk with him. However, this Hu man was not a faithful companion, and after entering the desert, because of fear, he left Tang Seng halfway and went back. Helpless, Tang Seng had no choice but to sneak through the five beacons alone and enter the eight-hundred-mile desert - Mohe Yanqi Desert. During the crossing, he was almost shot by the soldiers who guarded him. After entering the desert, although there is no threat from officers and soldiers, it is more dangerous and terrifying. The unique mirage phenomenon in the desert is like a ghost shadow, which haunts Tang Seng from time to time, and the desert wind and sand that covers the sky pass by him from time to time. At this time, the only water bladder unfortunately fell to the ground, and there was not a drop of water left. Tang Seng thought of retreating, and really retreated. He walked back more than ten miles, but eventually turned back and headed west. Five days later, when there was no water and he got lost, Tang Seng miraculously walked out of the desert and arrived at the first stop in the Western Regions - Yiwu, and after a few days, he arrived at Gaochang Kingdom

In Gaochang, Tang Seng once again encountered obstacles.

When the king of Gaochang heard that Tang Seng was coming, he sent an envoy to greet him and became a brother with Tang Seng. He hoped to keep the learned monk in front of him by his side with hospitality. Tang Seng's westward journey was once again blocked, and he protested with a hunger strike to show his determination to go west.
