Chapter 791: True and False Scripture Learners
"Have you heard? Master Xuanzang of Jinshan Temple was appointed by the Buddha as a scripture learner!"
"What is a scripture learner, what is a scripture, and where can I take it?"
"You don't know who is learning the scriptures, let me tell you, this scripture is to go to the Western Da Lei Yin Temple to retrieve the Buddha's Sanzang Sutra!"
"What's the use? Does it have anything to do with me?"
"The relationship is big, once Master Xuanzang retrieves the true scriptures, I wait for the people to recite them day and night, and the demons and monsters will no longer be able to harm us, and then the Tang Dynasty will be peaceful!"
"Yo, there's such a good thing, then I can read it in the future!"
......
"Not only that, but this Sanzang Sutra can also overcome all suffering, and it can also allow the dead to ascend to heaven!"
"Really, then I'm going to Jinshan Temple in a hurry, and I'm going to have a good fate!"
.....
I don't know when the matter of Xuanzang and the scriptures has spread throughout Chang'an City.
No one knows how the news came about, as if the news appeared in everyone's mind out of thin air, because it is so special, so everyone believes it.
"Master, there are too many people coming to worship the Buddha today, and our high incense has been burned!"
"Master Xuanzang, Li Yuanwai, Qin Yuanwai came to Jinshan Temple to give alms, so magnanimous!"
"Host, our Jinshan Temple has been surrounded by water, how should this be good!"
.....
As soon as Xuanzang woke up, he found that the sky had changed, and the originally deserted Jinshan Temple was overcrowded all of a sudden, and the thresholds were trampled on.
"What the hell is going on!" Xuanzang was very puzzled, although he had been working hard to brush up the prestige of Jinshan Temple, he would definitely not be able to do it to such an extent as he is now.
"Master, now that it's crazy outside, are you really a person who learns scriptures from heaven?" asked Shitian.
"What the hell is going on?" Xuanzang was even more puzzled.
He only learned about the scriptures from Wang Yan's mouth yesterday, how could it be that after a night's work, the entire Li De people in Chang'an City knew about it, and there must be something strange in it!
At this time, the Zen master Zhishang of Huasheng Temple and the holy woman of Cihang Jingzhai were also caught off guard by the fact that Xuanzang was a scripture learner.
Originally, the Mandate of Heaven was a two-choice person, and Zhishang Zen Master could not resonate with the nine-ring tin staff and the brocade robe, so Xuanzang's chances of winning were greater, but because of the relationship between Cihang Jingzhai and Huasheng Temple, the saint made the decision to let Zhishang become a scripture taker.
"It's only been one night, and the purpose of my birth will not be known to anyone other than you, how can it suddenly be rumored that Xuanzang has become a person who learns scriptures from the mandate of heaven!" The saint couldn't figure it out, and it vaguely seemed that someone was deliberately working against her.
Last night, after she carefully probed the surroundings and made sure that no third party was present, she revealed the secret of her westward journey to Zen Master Zhishang. Before she could build momentum for her westward journey, it was rumored that Xuanzang was the person who was destined to learn from the scriptures.
"Holy Maiden, please rest assured, I didn't divulge a word to the public!" Zen Master Zhishang couldn't figure it out, originally he also wanted to replace the Mandate of Heaven to learn the scriptures to achieve positive results, but he didn't expect that the heavens were not as good as people wanted, this may be the destiny of heaven!
Seeing that Zhishang was a little frustrated, the holy woman immediately cheered up and said: "Uncle Zhishang, you don't have to care too much, the matter of going west to learn scriptures is no longer a secret in the heavenly court, Lingshan and the demon world, but the human world doesn't know, this Xuanzang doesn't know where to know the news, and wants to increase the prestige of Jinshan Temple as a scripture learner, see how I can expose the crime of this liar!"
It doesn't matter who is the person who is destined to learn the scriptures, and it doesn't matter who is real, because everything is just a word from her holy daughter.
"Bold and evil monks, for their own selfishness, pretending to be a scripture taker to deceive the world, confusing the heavens, Xuanzang! You are guilty!" The ethereal voice of the saint spread throughout Chang'an City and outside Chang'an City.
Xuanzang is sitting at home, the disaster comes from the sky, just now he was still thinking about the identity of the scripture, and he was warned at this time!
"What kind of thing is this!" Xuanzang wanted to cry without tears.
The saint, he saw it last night, on behalf of Cihang Jingzhai, because the Tang Dynasty was established, Cihang Jingzhai at this time still has some residual power, she said that Xuanzang is an evil monk, then he is really an evil monk.
Xuanzang's strength is naturally not comparable to that of the saintess, and he can't shout in the air, so he can only acquiesce sadly.
"I am the holy daughter of Cihang Jingzhai, now I am looking for the person who takes the mandate of heaven by the order of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Master Xuanzang is a disciple of Buddhism, his greed has not been eliminated, and he is trying to deceive the world, which is really disrespectful to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and I hope the people must not be deceived by it!"
"What! Xuanzang turned out to be a fake scripture learner, isn't this a lie?"
"I lost my incense money, Nima~ I will never come to Jinshan Temple again!"
"Hmph, Master Xuanzang of Jinshan Temple is this kind of goods, it seems that Jinshan Temple is not very good!"
.....
The two words of the saint directly blackened Xuanzang, and even the prestige of Jinshan Temple was dealt a fatal blow.
"Holy Maiden, is it possible to slander people out of thin air just because you are a holy woman?" Xuanzang said unconvinced, he has been doing good deeds and accumulating virtue for many years, in order to correct the name of Jinshan Temple, and the saint's behavior is to kill his dreams.
"That's right, just because she's a saint, I can slander you!" said an indifferent voice.
"Who!" Xuanzang frowned, he didn't perceive anyone's existence, "This voice... You are Wang Yan!"
"That's right, it's me!" Wang Yan said with a smile.
Xuanzang suddenly thought of something, and said angrily: "Didn't you do all this, you just told me yesterday about learning scriptures, and today this matter will be spread all over the city!"
"That's right, it's me!" Wang Yan admitted very dryly.
"You... Why are you hurting me so much!" Xuanzang said angrily.
Wang Yan still said in a breezy tone: "I'm helping you, learning scriptures is a profession that everyone yearns for, once you succeed in learning scriptures, you will be able to achieve positive results immediately, and then your Jinshan Temple will definitely become a holy place for Buddhism!"
"Hmph, don't say it so nicely, I only know that the prestige of my Jinshan Temple is over, and all this is thanks to you!" Xuanzang said coldly.
"As long as you promise me to go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, I can reverse this situation, and I can even guarantee that you will become a Buddha!" Wang Yan said lightly, "Hurry up and choose, if you don't agree, then I will go to Zen Master Zhishang, it is estimated that he is more willing to become a Buddha!"
"....." Xuanzang stopped talking, and he was also thinking about this gain and loss.
Now the prestige of Jinshan Temple can be said to have been wiped out, if his strength alone may not be able to achieve Nirvana rebirth, but should I believe in Wang Yan?
"Wang Yan, I promise you to go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, but I don't want to become a Buddha, I just ask you to help me strengthen Jinshan Temple!" Xuanzang finally chose to compromise, anyway, the situation will not be worse than now.
"Congratulations, you have made the smartest choice in your life, cheer for yourself, your life will be different from now on!" Wang Yan said with a smile.
"Hehe!" Xuanzang didn't think there was anything to congratulate.
Wang Yan got Xuanzang's promise, one of the four protagonists of Journey to the West has been finalized, and the heavenly machine is one step clearer, which makes Wang Yan feel very good.
"The demon girl of Cihang Jingzhai, you dare to falsely spread the will of Guanyin Bodhisattva, you are guilty!" A deafening voice spread throughout the entire Tang Dynasty.
"What's the situation! Some people say that the holy woman of Cihang Jingzhai is a demon girl?"
"Falsely spread the will of Guanyin Bodhisattva, what is going on here!"
"This voice is so majestic, isn't God angry!"
....
The fire of gossip in everyone's hearts immediately burned.
