"Why did the old courtyard master give such a big gift?" Xuanzang quickly stepped forward and helped him up.

The old courtyard master's eyes faintly revealed a look of envy, and he clasped his hands and said: "The kind people here who read the scriptures and recite the Buddha are all counting on cultivating to your Chinese life." Only then did I see that the mage was richly dressed, and it was really cultivated in the previous life, so he could be used for it, so he worshiped now. ”

"Panic! The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, where there will be a fate, the old master has practiced Buddhism in Ciyun Temple for a lifetime, and he must have his own experience!" Xuanzang replied with a smile.

The old courtyard master pulled Xuanzang's sleeve, his face was full of enthusiasm, "The master is really a pearl of words, and his wisdom is profound, please come into the temple, stay for a few days, preach Buddhism with the disciples in my courtyard, and talk about Chinese things again, so as to strengthen their hearts of kindness!"

"No, no, the poor monk is still in a hurry, so he won't bother!" Xuanzang refused, in fact, there were still a few rhinoceros essences to be cleaned up here, and he really didn't want to preach any Buddhism.

Could he have told the young monks that he himself did not believe in Buddhism?

The old master continued to convince him: "The teacher will stay for a day or two, and after the Lantern Festival, it is okay to go on the road again." ”

"Today is the thirteenth day of the first month, and the lights will be tried at night, and the fifteenth day of the first month will be the next day, and the square lights will not be thanked until the eighteenth or nineteenth. I have a good family here, this house is too guarded by the lord and loves the people, and the lights are high in various places, and the flute is played all night. There is also a golden lamp bridge, which is handed down from ancient times and is still abundant. The lord stayed for a few days, and I can afford to stay in the barren mountains......"

Looking at the old master's face full of warm invitation, Xuanzang couldn't bear to say anything to refuse, so he had to nod and agree: "Then disturb the old house owner!"

The old courtyard owner's face showed joy, threw the broom in his hand to the side, and then pulled Xuanzang's sleeve and walked inside.

"Old courtyard master, I have a few apprentices who are still waiting at the bottom of the stairs, waiting for me to call them up!" Xuanzang turned around and called after speaking: "Wukong, you guys should come in too!"

Sun Wukong and the others were looking left and right, looking around at the strange things and novel food sold on the street, and after hearing Xuanzang's call, they immediately hurriedly went up the steps and walked towards the top of Ciyun Temple.

"It turns out that there are a few more elders, please come in quickly!" the old courtyard master greeted warmly.

At this time, because there were too many people, Zhu Bajie and Xiong Likui accepted the demon appearance, which did not make the people on the street feel scared and terrifying.

After entering the Ciyun Temple, I saw: "The Zhenlou is magnificent, and the throne is magnificent." Outside the high clouds of the Buddha Pavilion, the monk's room is quiet in the moon. Danxia is ethereal, and the green trees are gloomy and clear. ”

The incense burner was full of smoke, the high platform was full of lamps, there was a hoarse chanting sound in the monk's room, and the little novice was playing halfway with an empty bucket, and when he saw the old master, he immediately gave an honest salute and walked away quickly, as if a mouse had seen a cat.

Seeing this scene, Xuanzang couldn't help but recall his experience in Jinshan Temple, and his heart surged for a while.

Thinking of the approaching Lantern Festival, he vaguely remembered the rice balls he had eaten on the earth in his previous life, and a strange feeling of homesickness came to his heart.

I wonder when I, Jiang Qiyu, will be able to find the coordinates to return to my hometown...... Can we go back?"

"Maybe after becoming a Taoist, you can find your way home......

"At that time, it can be regarded as the strongest Dao Lord returning to ......the city, right?"

Xuanzang's heart was a little uneasy, because he stopped thinking about things, the old courtyard master next to him pulled Xuanzang's sleeve and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

"Seeing the smile, the poor monk just thought of the time when he was also a little novice, and in a blink of an eye, he was so old, and he couldn't help but be in a trance!" Xuanzang replied with a smile, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

The old courtyard owner felt the same way and sighed: "The mage is still young, and at the age of the old man, everything is in the past. All I think is a memory......"

"Hehe, this kind of idea is not like a disciple of Buddhism, no wonder the old man can't cultivate an Arhat, and he can't get the true meaning!"

Xuanzang was silent, only feeling that if the Buddha had no feelings, then he would not be himself, and he had become a member of the Tao for the sake of the Tao.

In the end, he was assimilated and became not himself, so what was the use of living for thousands of years?

As the old courtyard master arrived at the Buddhist hall, several people sat down to talk about the Buddha, and that day they did a Buddhist scripture preaching, and those little monks were more interested in the appearance of the Chinese Tang Dynasty.

Xuanzang probably introduced some things to them, the territory of the Tang Dynasty, customs, culture and religion, specialty food, etc......

Xiao Shami listened to it the most, and those young monks couldn't help but yearn for the heavenly kingdom, and asked one or two questions from time to time, and Xuanzang also answered them one by one.

At night that day, Xuanzang and others were arranged to rest in the guest room, which had wide wax and white candles to illuminate the room.

Before the curfew at Tsz Yun Temple, a group of small novices came and took off the slender Buddhist beads around their necks and gave them to Xuanzang, hoping that he could bring the Buddhist beads he had worn for many years to the country they longed for.

Xuanzang felt the heart of this group of children, and accepted it very solemnly, and then put it into a corner of the Chaos Bead.

After nightfall, the bed where Zhu Bajie was located was painted with a circle of soundproofing prohibitions, and through the moonlight entering the water, you could vaguely see that Zhu Bajie's mouth was closed one by one, and there must be snoring like thunder inside.

Xuanzang sorted out his thoughts, his mind moved, and his soul entered the avenue space.

The three thousand Great Dao stars were flowing with light, blooming with their own brilliance above the pitch-black curtain.

Among them, there is a black avenue star, the light is far beyond the others, and the star is relatively large, and the body exudes a dazzling clear light.

As soon as the spirit approached, he could feel a breath of intimacy, and there were bursts of sounds from inside the stars.

"Force, force, force!"

Xuanzang grabbed a part of the source power of the Great Dao here, turned it into a thin stream of water, and slowly injected it into the stars of the Great Avenue of Force.

"Buzz!"

The stars of the Great Dao seemed to be moved, and many phantoms were revealed on the surface, and then the whole body shook violently, revealing more bright lines inside, and the clear light around the body was even worse, Xuanzang felt that the strength of his physical body was even stronger.

The spirit returned to the physical body, and the feeling of becoming stronger became clearer.

The big golden characters in my mind changed slightly, and two more small words were added to the end.

[Strength]: The pinnacle of the Law Sage.

Since the last time he cultivated the Law of Life in the Negu World, his physical strength had been directly driven to the point of the middle stage of the Law Saint, and this breakthrough in the Law of Force had directly made his strength reach the peak of the Law Saint.

It is worthy of the law of force!

Xuanzang could clearly feel that even if he was under normal conditions, his strength could easily defeat a saint who had cultivated to the peak of a single law, and if he was in a state of anger, even he himself did not know what kind of strength realm it would be.

Avenue Sage?

Unlikely, there is still a long way to go from the Great Dao Saint.
