Chapter 1438: Monks from Outside Chant the Sutra (Part II)

Before Guo Yelin left Chang'an, the two Buddhists and Taoists in Chang'an City were basically evenly balanced. The Buddhism led by Master Xuanzang pressed the Daomen on the people, but Li Chunfeng was the protector of the Tang Dynasty, and the Daomen pressed the Buddha on the official face! Now that there is a Luo Ersa wife, Guo Ye is not optimistic about Li Chunfeng's situation!

Zhang Xindao: "You asked Li Chunfeng? He's also a protector! But the name has been changed! ”

"How do you change your name?"

"Your Majesty has a decree, Li Chunfeng Dao Chang has been changed to the left protector of the country, and the monk Luo Er Suo Po is the right protector of the country! You know, our Datang respects the left, and this time Li Chunfeng didn't suffer a loss! ”

Saying that, Guo Ye knew in his heart that the loss of Daomen this time was not small! It turned out that the Daomen family was dominant in the official face, but now that the Buddhism has Luo Ersa Po in the official face, the advantages of the Daomen are minimal!

More importantly, His Majesty Li Er's tendencies, before His Majesty Li Er still wanted to cut off the Buddhism, but under his own persuasion, it was changed to the Central Plains Buddhism Gate East Crossing Fusang Plan! Before he left Chang'an, he had relocated more than 100,000 monks, and only the monks in Chang'an had not moved much. Why hasn't it been a year, and His Majesty Li Er's policy towards Buddhism has changed so much?

Guo Ye said: "Thank you Lord Zhang for solving my doubts!" However, even if the monk Luo Ersa Po becomes a protector, for me Guo Ye, he is not a person who cannot be offended! Why did you just say that I was in trouble! ”

Zhang Xin sneered and said, "Pingyang County Prince, the size of this power does not depend on the official position, but also on the attention of His Majesty!" Now the divine monk Luo Ersa is in the ascendancy, and you, the envoy to Goguryeo has not met His Majesty for so long, and the affection has faded! Do you think you can beat the monk Luo Ersu? ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Xin said mysteriously: "Moreover, let me tell you one thing, now Your Majesty is also a disciple of my Buddhist family!" ”

Guo Ye didn't believe much about this, and said, "How can you see it? ”

"In the spring of this year, His Majesty issued a holy decree to restore 392 ancient temples of famous places in the world, and pray for the blessing of the eldest grandson and queen! That's a lot of money! There was a lot of noise in the court, and how many officials lost their positions and resigned! In the end, I couldn't twist my arm around my thigh, and I passed! You said that Your Majesty does not believe in Buddhism, can he spend so much money on the Buddhist family? ”

As soon as Guo Ye heard this, he knew that the plan of the Central Plains Buddhism to cross to Fusang was completely stranded, but he still said stiffly: "Your Majesty, this is called burning incense in the temple and kowtowing to the gods!" But just peace of mind! You want to say that Your Majesty worships Buddhism alone, but it's a bit too much! ”

"Come on, if Your Majesty treats Buddhism and Taoism equally, why do you just repair the temple, and there are three hundred and ninety-two temples in one repair? There are so many Taoist temples, why is he disdainful? Pingyang County Prince, I heard that you are good friends with Li Chunfeng! However, I advise you, don't be disliking to listen to it, don't believe in Buddhism, and convert to Buddhism as soon as possible! If you want to be promoted and make a fortune, you have to be consistent with Your Majesty! ”

Guo Ye listened to the boss's displeasure and said, "In this way, your family is because of this belief in Buddhism?" ”

"That's nature! Otherwise, why do you think it is? We Zhang Xin are loyal and patriotic, we like what Your Majesty likes, we hate what Your Majesty hates, and we believe in whatever Your Majesty believes! Pingyang Jungong, do you say there is something wrong with me? ”

Guo Ye secretly thought in his heart, it seems that this Zhang Xin is still a sullen sycophant! But if you want to refute it, it's really hard to say! If you scold him, you have to involve His Majesty Li Er, this trouble is not small! Forget it, don't worry about him! Let's get down to business!

He changed the topic and said, "What is the relationship between this Sun Wuchang and Luo Ersuo?" How could he have His Majesty's decree? ”

Zhang Xindao: "This is a long story!" Think about it, if the monk Luo Er Suo Po can only see a doctor, then he can't be a monk, at most he can be a doctor! ”

"I know, didn't you just say that? Calling for wind and rain, scattering beans into soldiers, turning day into night, summoning thunder ......"

"That's what I said, no one saw it, did I? I'll tell you, it's not these spells that are the most powerful thing about this Rassa! ”

"What's that?"

"Longevity! Even if you know how many spells, Your Majesty is a rarity. This immortality technique is incredible! Not to mention Your Majesty, it's just an ordinary person, who wants to die if you can live? The reason why the divine monk Luo Ersa Po became a divine monk is because he has the art of immortality! ”

Guo Ye snorted slightly: "Longevity? This thing is like a ghost, everyone says it has, but they have never seen it! How do you know if this monk really has immortality or is he lying to you? ”

Zhang Xin smiled slightly: "Of course, there is empirical evidence!" Guess how old this monk is now? ”

"How do I know that?"

"Guess it, guess high!"

"So he's seventy or eighty years old? Eighty or ninety years old? No matter how tall you are, you won't be one hundred and twenty years old, right? ”

"Oh, to tell you the truth, this old man is exactly two hundred years old this year! According to his old man, he has been studying the art of immortality for more than 100 years! ”

Guo Ye always felt that this matter was not very reliable, a foreign monk who didn't know where to jump out, and there were no relatives or neighbors to testify, he said that two hundred years old is two hundred years old? It's so unreasonable! But this kind of thing is that if you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you won't. If you want to insist that he is not 200 years old, there is indeed no hard evidence!

He asked again, "Even if Luo Ersa is a master of the life technique, does he still want to spread the word to his disciples?" This Sun Wuchang is his protΓ©gΓ©? ”

"You could not think of it! Come to think of it, this is an immortal technique! What can ordinary people learn? Even if the old god monk is willing to teach, others can't learn it! However, the immortality technique that the old monk has studied for a hundred years is not in vain, and now there has been a major breakthrough! ”

"What breakthrough?"

"As long as you refine an elixir, after taking it, you can live forever!"

Guo Ye looked at Zhang Xin like a fool and said, "Do you believe this?" Don't all charlatans cheat money like that? ”

"Pingyang County Prince, what are you talking about? Can the words of the monk Luo Er Sa be fake? I tell you that not only did I believe, but the people of the whole city believed, and a great man also believed! ”

An ominous premonition surged into Guo Ye's heart, and he said, "Are you talking about Your Majesty?" ”

"Yes! How do you think Sun Wuchang's holy decree came about? It was given by His Majesty! His Majesty has already sent the divine monk Luo Ersa Po to refine the elixir of immortality for him! However, the Immortal Pill is too difficult to refine, not to mention the cost, and a large number of rare treasures are needed! The monk couldn't keep himself busy, so he recruited a group of people to help him, and he was responsible for purchasing goods in various places......"

Guo Ye frowned and said: "Then you can't find a ...... like Sun Wuchang" After speaking, he regretted it a little! The idlers in Chang'an City are still the majority of Sun Wuchang, and he also has two sworn brothers who are Sun Wuchang's relatives, and in this regard, he is not more clever than Luo Yipo!

Zhang Xin said: "Alas, Sun Wuchang's character is not good. But you can't offend him to death, it's up to the owner to beat the dog! If this matter spreads, it will be known that Sun Wuchang has offended your tiger power. If you don't know, you have to say that you look down on the monk Luo Ersava! Master Luo Er Suo is now in the limelight for a while, and you have lost face, do you say that he can give up with you? ”

It seems that this is really the case, Guo Ye nodded and said, "Thank you Lord Zhang for solving my doubts!" But I, Guo Ye, don't like to cause trouble, and I'm not afraid of it. If this Luo Er Suo really wants to trouble me Guo Ye, hehe, let him see how powerful my Guo Ye is! ”

"Don't mess around, the monk Luo Ersa is a celebrity in front of His Majesty, if you go against him, there will be no good fruit to eat!"

"Needless to say!"

……

……

Early the next morning, the chariot, Ma Xiaoxiao, Guo Ye and his party were full of spirit and went straight to Chang'an City!

Guo Ye thought to himself, no matter what impeachment of your guards' families, no matter what Luo Ersa Po, anyway, today, I will let go of everything, as long as I enter the city, I will go straight to my home, and enjoy the joy of family first. All of this will be said tomorrow!

He thinks well, but the sky doesn't obey people's wishes!

When they arrived at the city gate, they should naturally have officials from the Ministry of Etiquette come to greet them! Last time, it was Fan Guogong Duan Zhixuan who was the leader, but that was a special case, and it was not accurate! To Guo Ye's surprise, this time it was a special case!

I saw a great monk standing in front of the greeting procession, chanting the Buddha's name: "Amitabha!" Pingyang County Prince, the poor monk Luo Ersa, this is polite! ”

Wipe!

Why did this old bald donkey come here?

Could it be that he is looking for a place for Sun Wuchang?
