In the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the tall statue of Shakyamuni Buddha stands solemnly and erect, and his eyes look softly at the beings below.

The left and right attendants stood solemnly sideways, half of their eyes fell on the world-honored Shakyamuni, and half of their eyes fell on the beings below.

The whole hall is full of golden light, the lamps and candles are burning, the prayer flags are fluttering, and the light bowl is faintly sounding.

Clusters of believers entered in an orderly manner, burning incense and worshipping, praying and chanting, praying that their wishes would come true.

After the incense was burned by a nobleman in front, Li Xuan helped Liu Jinyu, took Liu Shubi and Liu Qiongyu, came to the statue of Sakyamuni, and knelt down carefully.

Li Xuan clasped his palms together, bowed slightly to the statue of Sakyamuni, bowed lightly three times, and sincerely chanted: "May Sanniang's mother and son be safe, mother healthy, all auspicious, peace of mind, and no Amitabha Buddha in the south." ”

"The king is not sincere, he doesn't kowtow when he sees the Buddha!" Ming Chongyan didn't know when, and stood beside Li Xuan.

The monk Huinuma on the side couldn't help frowning.

Buddhism is wide open and convenient, Ming Chongyan is a cronie of the Empress Wu, and it is not once or twice to come to the Great Ci'en Temple, but now it is like this, and it is the first time that he will speak disrespectfully.

Li Xuan's heart was calm, his palms were folded, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

The person was still kneeling on the futon, and Li Xuan said softly: "The master's words are wrong, sincere and insincere, all in this king, all in the Buddha, how can others know?" ”

Monk Huinuma looked startled, and looked at Li Xuan with a surprised face, this is quite Zen!

The corners of Ming Chongyan's mouth sneered slightly, and then said: "Is it possible, the prince wants to tell the world that the prince is also sincere to the Buddha?" ”

"The Buddha is a sage, and this king sincerely bows down to worship the sages. The glory of Buddhism shines on the world, purifying all sentient beings, infinite merit, and His Majesty is also particularly admired, how can this king be outside. Just wish that people's hearts are at peace, and then they can get the place of Buddhahood. Li Xuan let go of his hands, and then carefully helped Liu Jinyu up, and then continued: "Real person, Buddhism is also a way of the road, and it can lead to the road, which does not violate the hearts of the people, even if the Taoist ancestor comes, it is only gratifying." ”

"When the Buddha enters the Middle Earth, the Buddha enters the Tao, and it turns out that the prince is still the same heart as always." Ming Chongyan still provoked in front of him and refused to let go of Li Xuan easily.

Monk Huinuma's face had sunk.

Hui Nuan is the apprentice of Xuanzang, the disciple of Xuanzang, and the half master of the entire Great Ci'en Temple.

Li Xuan smiled lightly, turned to look at Monk Huinuma, bowed and said: "I don't know what others are kings, but Master Xuanzang, after thousands of miles away, took the Mahayana scriptures back to my Tang Dynasty, translated the scriptures, and spread them in all directions.

There are clouds in the Han book, and there are gods in the West, and the name is Buddha. Master, this king, please play Your Majesty, how about Master Xuanzang plus the name of Zhantan Meritorious Buddha? ”

Monk Huinuma was about to open his mouth to rebuke the absurdity, but for some reason, when the words reached the corner of his mouth, he suddenly changed his mouth and chanted: "Nan Wu Zhan Tan Merit Buddha." ”

"The Buddha of Merit in the South, in the northwest, his body is blue, his right hand touches the ground, and his left hand seals, holding the merit of the Buddha's name, can eliminate the past life, stop the sinful karma of the monks, Nan Wu Zhantan Merit Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha." Li Xuan clasped his palms together and bowed down in chanting.

Monk Huinuma did not hesitate at all, and immediately followed the chant: "There is no Buddha of merit in the south, and there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south." ”

When everyone present saw this scene, they were stunned and dumbfounded.

What did they see, canonizing the Buddha, fixing the Buddha, or praising the Buddha?

When the monk Huinuma followed the chant of "Nan Wu Zhan Tan Merit Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha", most of the people present had long forgotten what they were thinking in their hearts, and couldn't help but chant along with the chant: "Nan Wu Zhan Tan Merit Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha." ”

For a while, the sound of chanting kept ringing in the hall, and then gradually spread out.

……

In the inner hall, Li Xuan was sitting in front of the low table, and then in front of the abbot of Peeji and the monk Huinuma, he wrote it by himself, and asked the emperor to play Bing, and asked Master Xuanzang to be the Buddha of Zhantan Merit.

After the book was written, Li Xuan's expression was a little dazed, and he looked at the abbot of Peeji with some uncertainty, and said with some bitterness: "Master, will this king provoke the Buddha to blame if he does this?" ”

Let the emperor add Master Xuanzang as a Buddha, when Li Xuan was in the main hall, when he spoke, his mind was like a spring, and he couldn't stop talking, but when he calmed down, he felt the danger.

"The prince now knows that he is afraid, I am afraid that this matter has spread in the capital, if he does not send the music book to the palace immediately, His Majesty will inevitably treat the prince for the crime of false speech." Ming Chongyan glanced at Li Xuan angrily, to be honest, even if he thought of today's scene, he felt extremely ridiculous.

The abbot of Xuanzang, who is Xuanzang's apprentice and the host of the Great Ci'en Temple, bowed gently to Li Xuan, and then said: "The Buddha has no discriminating heart, no vain heart, if you can let the Son of Heaven and the people understand the inheritance of the Buddha and understand the Buddha's heart, there will be immeasurable merits." ”

Xuanzang's apprentices all said so, what can Li Xuan do.

"That's it, but master, whether Your Majesty can finally approve of this matter, this king can't guarantee, he can only say that he will do his best to persuade him." Li Xuan looked at Peeji and found a way out for himself.

Monk Peeki smiled and said, "The matter has come to this, everything is determined by heaven, Amitabha." ”

Li Xuan glanced at Peeji deeply, then handed the book to Li Zhu, and repeatedly advised: "Send it to Menxia Province immediately, and then play Your Majesty and the Queen of Heaven." ”

"Whoa!" Li Zhu immediately turned around and walked away quickly.

Looking at his solemn expression, I knew that the notebook in his hand was like a time bomb, but it had to be sent.

Watching Li Zhu leave, Li Xuan retracted his gaze.

In today's inner hall, only Li Xuan, Ming Chongyan, Abbot Peeji and Monk Huinuma, and the others are no longer there.

Sanniang Liu Jinyu, Siniang Liu Shubi, and Wuniang Liu Qiongyu have all been sent back by Li Xuan one step in advance.

Today's events have obviously become a big mess, and it is quite difficult to clean up, so I can only let them leave first.

"What are these things?" Li Xuan smiled bitterly somehow, and even glanced up at Ming Chongyan.

Ming Chongyan shook his head slightly, he saw everything before, right in front of him, if there was really something wrong, he would be the first to feel it.

But alas, no.

Li Xuan turned his head to look at the abbot of Peeji on the side, and asked with a little discussion: "Master, this king has a question, I don't know if to ask?" ”

"Lord Wang, please speak." Abbot Peeki looked at Li Xuan calmly.

Li Xuan thought for a moment and asked: "Master, the Tao is said to become an immortal, the Buddha is said to become a Buddha, and now that the catastrophe is great, the immortal road is cut off, is the Buddha road also cut off?" ”

Li Xuan said a word, and Ming Chongyan suddenly became solemn.

For example, today, no one has achieved Jindan for more than 100 years, at least not in the rumors.

The most recent one, who died in the process of achieving Jindan, was none other than the Tianyin Sect Leader Empress Yuan.

The path of Taoist cultivation is cut off, what about Buddhism, how is Buddhism?

"Daomen Jindan, Buddha Gate Arhat." The abbot of Peeji smiled slightly bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, if the poor monk said that the family teacher had achieved the Arhat fruit position in Tianzhu, I don't know if the prince is credible?" ”

Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Great Arhat, Arhat, Bhikshu, Shami, many fruit positions, Arhat is equal to Daomen Jindan, and Great Arhat is equal to Daomen Heavenly Immortals.

After thinking for a while, Li Xuan said: "Although this king has never heard of this, but let Master Xuanzang be, this king believes it." ”

"Thank you, Amitabha." Peeping Ji clasped his palms together, and then continued: "The family teacher returned from Tianzhu and watched the cultivation all the way, but after arriving in Chang'an, the arhat fruit position could not be maintained, and finally fell into the mortal dust, entered the silence, and was reincarnated. ”

Li Xuan nodded slowly and said, "This king understands, the Daomen Tribulation, the Buddhism Gate is also a Great Tribulation, and all living beings in Middle-earth are within the Great Tribulation. ”

Not only that, Tianzhu is also among the great tribulations, and there have been no arhats for many years, and even Buddhism has gradually died out in Tianzhu. The family teacher only went to Tianzhu to have a chance to make a breakthrough, but the latecomers were difficult to achieve. Voyeur sighed slightly, and said the truth that no one knew.

Since Xuanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty, although he gradually fell from the arhat position, he was once an arhat after all, and there are still remnants of all kinds of magical powers.

After the sects of Buddhism sought advice behind closed doors, they also concluded that Xuanzang was really an arhat, but his realm began to fall.

This matter is a top secret of Buddhism, but there are occasional rumors, so some people think that from the Tang Dynasty to Tianzhu, there is the possibility of becoming a Jindan and an arhat, I don't know how many people have been to the test for decades, but in the end, no one succeeded.

But everyone who has been to Tianzhu has recognized Xuanzang's achievement as an arhat, but he has achieved it, but after all, he has only achieved it.

After thinking for a while, Li Xuan slowly asked: "For many years, has the Buddha Gate always been in front of the Arhat Gate, and then it will return to silence and be reincarnated?" Li Xuan couldn't help but ask: "Master Xuanzang has become an arhat, has he never attained the body of immortality?" ”

"Returning to the Tang Dynasty from Tianzhu, walking all the way with only two legs, the prince feels that this trip is an arhat, after returning to Chang'an, there is still a few points of cultivation left, not to mention that after that, he has to translate the scriptures day and night, and the teacher finally ran out of body and returned to the west." Peeki sighed softly.

"It turns out that an arhat is not omnipotent." Li Xuan suddenly laughed helplessly, Xuanzang is an arhat even if he is an arhat, he is not a Buddha after all.

At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded outside the door, and a monk in a gray robe walked in briskly from the outside, and then said a few words in the ear of the abbot of Peeki with a nervous face, and the face of the abbot of Peeki suddenly sank.

After thinking about it for a while, the abbot finally spoke: "Go to Wannian County and ask the county order to send someone here." ”

"Go and ask for the Wannian County Order?" Ming Chong on the side was stunned, why was he still talking about arhats just now, why was he going to ask for the county order in the blink of an eye.

"One of the mages in the guest house has passed away." The abbot of Peeki folded his hands and bowed slightly.

"You don't have to ask for a prefectural order, do you?" Ming Chongyan was a little puzzled for a while.

Li Xuan opened his mouth at this time and said: "Real people might as well go and see with the master, Xiao Wang is here to read Buddhist scriptures." ”

Ming Chongyan instantly understood, how could it be a normal death, obviously something happened.

"Abbot, can you go and have a look?" Ming Chongyan stood up directly, looking at Abbot Peeji with blazing eyes.

The abbot of Peepji clasped his palms together and said softly: "Real person, please!" ”

……

Li Xuan sat in the main hall with a Diamond Sutra in front of him.

His eyes were slightly closed, and he whispered in his heart: "In this world, there are no immortal people, Buddhas, who will also be extinguished." ”

It's a bit of a self-congratulatory writing.,I'm already receiving it.,The next chapter will be over.
