Chapter 153: Return
readx; I have to say that for the sake of the scriptures, Xuanzang can be said to be aggrieved, and originally thought that after finding the Buddha, he could punish the two Venerables, but Rulai's attitude gave him a great blow, because Rulai didn't want Buddhism to cross to the east at all, and it was perfunctory to the extreme.

This makes Xuanzang, who yearns for the Pure Land of Bliss in the West to the extreme, have a feeling of broken worldview, where is this Pure Land, it is clearly red dust.
Xuanzang remembered that he was in the Tang Temple, although the monks of the Tang Dynasty did not have such a word as ascetics, but they were definitely not deceitful and famous.
Because of the competition between Taoism and the perfection of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the monks there have achieved true virtue, and the best of them is himself.
Maybe because of the monster, Xuanzang looked a little cowardly on the way to learn the scriptures, but this could not erase Xuanzang's heart to the Buddha.
Now the image of the Buddha is shattered in Xuanzang's heart, which makes him feel extremely confused for a while.
But the Buddha would not care about Xuanzang's thoughts, because the golden cicada of that year relegated him to the mortal dust for the sake of contempt for Buddhism, and experienced the suffering of ten lifetimes of reincarnation.
If you really get the love of Rulai, then it will definitely not be like this.
Xuanzang set off from Datang to West Tianling Mountain, it took fourteen years just to go all the way, and if he went all the way back, it would take at least ten years.
Naturally, such a long time is not possible, so under the command of Rulai, the Eight King Kongs sent Xuanzang back to the Eastern Tang Dynasty along the way.
Walking against the wind is not much faster than walking, even the white dragon horse can't be compared at all, but in a few days, Xuanzang returned to the Dongtu Tang Dynasty from Lingshan.
Once again, I saw the hometown scenery of the Tang Dynasty in the East Soil, Rao is Xuanzang's firmness, and I couldn't help but burst into tears, this is not a tear of fear when facing monsters, but moving.
Familiar buildings, familiar mountains and rivers, familiar local sounds, familiar temples, Xuanzang finally returned to the Jinshan Temple that raised him.
This is his starting point, if it weren't for the elders of Jinshan Temple who picked him up from the river, he would not be where he is today.
Fourteen years have passed, Xuanzang, who was still a young man, has entered middle age, don't look at Xuanzang's sleeping in the open along the way, but he does not show his old state, he is still so magnificent, and he has a little more stability of a real monk.
After so many tribulations, Xuanzang is no longer the existence that can only get the name of a monk in the way of debate, and has a lot of his own understanding of Buddhist scriptures.
What's more, he successfully returned from learning from the scriptures and brought the general trend of traveling to the west, which was enough to start a mountain and establish a faction immediately.
Xuanzang walked lightly to the gate of Jinshan Temple, after fourteen years, this familiar temple seems to have not changed, it is still the same.
knocked on the temple door, and a small novice came out of it, obviously young, but he had a calm bearing, holding a broom in his hand, and looked at Xuanzang.
From this little novice, Xuanzang seemed to see himself back then.
"I've seen the mage." The little novice clasped his hands together in front of Xuanzang and bowed, full of politeness.
"The poor monk Xuanzang, who was a monk of Jinshan Temple back then, finally returned from learning the scriptures, please inform the abbot." Xuanzang didn't have any disrespect just because the other party was a little novice, after all, this was where he grew up.
"Mage, please come in, I'll let you know." As soon as Xiao Shami heard that this monk with the bearing of a high monk had practiced in Jinshan Temple in the past, he knew that the other party had returned from his travels.
For monks, it is rare and not uncommon, and it is generally the patent of high monks, who learn from each other's understanding of the scriptures and make progress together.
The little novice ran into quickly, and after a while, an old monk walked out quickly, saw the middle-aged Xuanzang, and was moved beyond measure.
Xuanzang was the same, looking at each other fixedly, his eyes moist.
It turned out that this old monk was the Faming monk who picked him up from the river back then, and now he is the abbot of Jinshan Temple, the longest-lived one of his peers.
This master, for Xuanzang, is a real person who is also a master and a father, that is, the other party will pull him up, teach Buddhism, and make him famous as a master in Beijing.
The sensation of Xuanzang stepping on the road to the west to learn scriptures has long been forgotten by people with the passage of time, even if it is Li Shimin.
Only Monk Faming still remembers the Xuanzang he cultivated, and is waiting for the other party's return, even if there is hope in case, he is not willing to give up.
Fourteen years have passed, and he finally waited for Xuanzang's return.
The news of Xuanzang's return spread like the wind to all the temples, because the matter of Xuanzang's learning scriptures in the west caused a huge sensation among the monks.
Now that I have returned from the scriptures, I immediately recall the memories of that year, and the monks of that festival have now become the backbone of the temple and have a different influence.
In order to grow Buddhism, these temples began to promote the influence of Xuanzang's return from the scriptures, and in less than a month, Xuanzang once again became famous in Beijing, and even entered Li Shimin's ears.
Li Shimin still has a vague memory of what happened back then, after all, that time, Guanyin came, and he personally ordered Xuanzang to learn scriptures from the west.
I thought that the monk had died on the way to learn the scriptures, but I didn't expect that he really succeeded.
Now Jinshan Temple has become the most sensational temple in the world, and all the monks who have heard that Xuanzang has returned from learning scriptures have gathered here.
Xuanzang's customs clearance documents have been passed on by officials and come to Li Shimin's desk.
And the 5,000 and 48 volumes of the "Three Tibetan Sutras" have become the most important proof of Xuanzang, and it is also the original Sanskrit language, which needs to be translated by the majority of monks.
The vigorous translation activities were carried out in Jinshan Temple, and all those who participated in it were truly eminent monks, including even some Taoist people.
What is strange is that in the fourteen years since Xuanzang left the Tang Dynasty, Theravada Buddhism has been widely spread, and its own Buddhist system has been established, and Zen Buddhism is even more famous all over the world.
Among these translators of Buddhist scriptures, Zen Buddhism is the most important force, among which the main purpose of "the mind is a Buddha" and "seeing nature to become a Buddha" has opened up a new school of Buddhism, which has become one of the most important branches of Buddhism, and has differentiated the luck of Buddhism.
Time passed slowly, Xuanzang's main job was not to translate the scriptures, but to write down what he saw and heard, forming a "Tang Dynasty Western Regions Chronicle", making Chang'an Luoyang paper expensive, and the magnificent mysteries made everyone dreamlike.
Because of Xuanzang's three apprentices as proof, everyone has seen the bloodthirsty cruelty of Xihe Niuzhou, the monsters are rampant, and the so-called Pure Land of Bliss also has all kinds of unspoken rules rampant.
Lingshan is not as beautiful as imagined, which undoubtedly shatters the ultimate dream of too many monks, not only did not let Mahayana Buddhism spread in the eastern land, but hit everyone's dreams. (To be continued.) )
