Chapter 494: Nameless Ancient Corpse

When Dan Xuan said this, he sighed softly, and it felt like a woman sighing~~

"The teacher once told me that the house in this underground palace is Xuanzang's former residence, and the dried corpse inside has been handed down since a very early age, and no one dares to move, and no one dares to question it.

Buddhism is a quiet place, I like to go with the flow, I am never curious, and I don't like to get to the bottom of it, this body has been left from generation to generation, and no one knows who he is.

But the poor monk is a maverick person, he has never liked ambiguity, the poor monk must know the true identity of this dry corpse, who is it......"

After Dan Xuan's words were finished, Chen Zhi and Fat Wei unconsciously cast their eyes on the dried corpse.

The corpse looked too old, so old that he couldn't distinguish his facial features and bones, and from the outside, it looked like a black and slimy ball, but from the posture of the corpse, it could be predicted that no one had been coerced before the corpse died, and it should belong to a natural death.

The nape of the cadre's neck was a little protruding, it was the posture that had been sitting there for many years, and it should have been exhausted, and finally the body died on the table.

This way of dying is unimaginable for normal people, ordinary people will not have this perseverance, even if they are tired to death, they will not leave the table, which proves that this person no longer cares about anything except doing one thing at this time, and even puts life and death aside, or maybe for some reason, he does not want to leave this seat, so that he finally dies here.

On the table, there are four treasures of the study, quite in the style of the middle of the Tang Dynasty, and the inkstone has already dried and cracked into powder, and only a general outline can be seen. However, the brush is still relatively complete, and the position at the end of the pen is a faint golden yellow, which looks like it is wrapped in pure gold.

"Before he died, he was still reciting scriptures!"

Chen Zhi stared at the corpse and said softly:

"In my current reckoning, this place should have been a gathering place for monks, who gathered here to copy, translate, or copy these scriptures brought from the Western Heavens, a spiritual force that allowed them to endure the harsh conditions here.

Could this nameless corpse be one of the monks who copied it? ”

"I don't know, I don't know~~~",

Master Dan Xuan replied lightly, his appearance at this time was much more normal, and the strange aura just now had also dissipated, but his eyes were still a little dull, his eyebrows were frowning, and he looked at the corpse with some melancholy:

"I don't know, I don't know!

Everything is conjecture, everything is assumption~~

When I first learned of the existence of this corpse, my teacher told me not to care who it was. And don't go after who he is?

Everything is cause and effect, and it is all chance.

Buddhism is a quiet place, too much pursuit of the true image, will make Buddhism dusty, and monks like us will also destroy it~~

But I'm a persistent person, and that's my demon, and I always want to know, what happened in this house 1,300 years ago? ”

After Dan Xuan finished speaking, he gently stepped forward, shone the dry and blackened corpse with a torch, and said softly,

"In the secret record of our Tianfa Temple, there is such a record~~~

After the scandal between the former monk and Princess Gaoyang, Emperor Tang was angry and wanted to punish all the monks, even Master Xuanzang.

At that time, the people of Buddhism were panicked, and Master Xuanzang was afraid of the outflow of precious Western Heaven scriptures, so he sent them all to this underground palace, and then anxious to get the Taoist monks, secretly lived here, and copied all the scriptures.

It is said that a lot of strange things happened during that time, and many monks also quietly changed, and Master Xuanzang lived in fear all day long~~

But in the end, the Buddha blessed, the Tang Emperor weighed the pros and cons, and finally forgave the sins of Buddhism, Master Xuanzang finally became famous through the ages, and finally Tianfa Temple is still shining today.

But the place was hidden, like a little darkness in the midst of all the light.

I'm sure that something must have happened in this dungeon during that time, or that everyone had hidden something together, and in the end, everything dissipated, leaving behind this unknown corpse.

As you said, the poor monk also has intuition, and this is definitely not an unknown person, on the contrary, he is a very important person, so important that we must always remember him! ”

"Is this your inner demon?" ,

Chen Zhi turned his head to look at Dan Xuan and said:

"If you are obsessed with knowing his identity, the most useful thing is to look for DNA matches.

Nowadays, biotechnology is very advanced, and matching DNA can be found from the skin and hair of a person more than 1,000 years ago, and as long as you find his offspring in the current human, you can deduce who he is!

Even if the monk has no offspring, his siblings and relatives can find traces of DNA~~~"

"It's useless!" ,

Master Danxuan shook his head abruptly,

"I've tried all these years, but to no avail, and there's no record of this place other than a corpse.

And now in the DNA pool, I can't find any matching ......"

"There are other ways ......",

Chen Zhi looked at Master Danxuan,

"Is that what you're asking me to do?

If you just want to know the true identity of this cadre, I can do it in a few special ways! But it may be a little disrespectful to Buddhism~~"

"Amitabha, the donor looks down on the poor monk too much!"

Monk Danxuan laughed when he heard Chen Zhi say this, he clasped his palms together and bowed slightly to Chen Zhi:

"If it's just a few small spells, how can the poor monk bother the patriarch of the Jiang clan?

In fact, the poor monk has always had a wish, and he also asked the donor to help.

This matter has puzzled the poor monk for a long time, and if the donor can help, maybe the legend of China for more than a thousand years can be turned upside down......"
