Chapter 32 Tang Seng

"Qiangzi, Qiangzi, there is a monk who opens an altar in Chang'an City to preach the Fa!" Qin Xian rushed towards Li Qiang, who was on the throne of General Lang's Mansion and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Qi Xu chased after him and grabbed Qin Xian: "How many times have I told you that I want to call Lord Lang in the mansion." ”

"Lang...... Lord Lang Jiang, the monk is in such a big formation, I heard that there are more than a thousand monks who listened to his lectures alone, and all the people of Chang'an City have gone. ”

Ding Liang also asked: "My lord, do you think that monk will be Tang Seng?"

Before Li Qiang heard Lu Guogong Cheng bite the gold, the emperor found a monk who had attained the Tao and wanted to go to the West Heaven to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures, wanting to seek Mahayana Buddhism and resolve the anger of the Three Realms.

Counting the days, it should be almost gone.

The monk who opened the altar to preach the Dharma is the monk who is going to go to the West to learn scriptures last time I heard Lu Guogong Cheng bite Jin, and some people who have seen it say that this monk is quite handsome.

It is estimated that before leaving, he will give another lesson to the monks of Chang'an City.

All indications indicate that this monk is likely to be Tang Seng.

Li Qiang said to a few people: "I also think it's Tang Seng, anyway, it's nothing, let's go and have a look." ”

After simply handling the things at hand, a few people went out and found that the entire Chang'an City was boiling today, with the momentum of a superstar holding a concert.

No, it's higher than the momentum of the superstar concert.

I heard that today's Miaofa Conference, the emperor will bring hundreds of civil and military officials to participate!

Li Qiang and Qi Xu came to the venue of the conference, when the Huasheng Temple on Suzaku Street. The inside and outside of the Huasheng Temple are already overcrowded, and needles cannot be inserted or water splashed in. The people of Chang'an who came to watch had already surrounded the team nearly a mile outside the Huasheng Temple.

Several people relied on their youth, squeezed for a while before squeezing to the door, and mixed into the temple with the waist cards of Yifu Lang and the captain.

I asked people in the temple of rebirth, and I learned that today's festival is called the Waterway Conference.

Speaking of the origin of this waterway conference, it is quite legendary.

Today's Tang Emperor Li Shimin is an immediate emperor. When he was still the king of Qin, he had already led the troops in command, and he defeated most of the Tang Dynasty.

After he ascended the throne, he once sleepwalked in the underworld and died in vain, only to encounter the sixty-four roads of smoke and dust and seventy-two grass cowards that he had killed. After these people died, they turned into powerful ghosts and entangled Li Shimin, making him unable to return to Yang.

In the end, it was Judge Cui of the underworld who lent the thirteen treasury of gold and silver stored in the underworld by an old man who sold water to Tang Emperor Li Shimin, and Li Shimin scattered the gold and silver to the ghosts before he was able to get out.

After Li Shimin woke up, he held a sewer meeting to thank Judge Cui for his help and to overcome the unjust souls of the dead city.

As a result, the Waterway Conference has become the highest standard and unprecedented scale of Buddhism and Taoism in Datang.

This waterway conference, starting from the third day of September in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, was held for seven days. There are 1,200 monks who enter the temple to discuss the law, and Chen Xuanzang, the world's great explanatory master, opened the altar to preach the law, and the Tang Emperor led hundreds of civil and military officials to attend. 1,000 Xuanjia troops and 3,000 Jin Wuwei were dispatched to maintain order at the venue.

As for the people and adventurers who came to Chang'an City to watch, I don't know how many there were, if it weren't for Li Qiang and a few of them who had the identity of the guards of the East Palace, they wouldn't even be able to enter the temple gate of Huasheng Temple.

"Your Majesty is offering incense. Qin Xian saw from a distance Li Shimin, who was wearing a rolling dragon robe and worshipping incense from a distance.

Li Shimin worshiped the Buddha and made incense in front of the incense case, and after the three turns were completed, he changed the hundred officials to worship the incense. For a time, the incense was booming, and the fragrant clouds were curling, rising more than ten zhang high.

After the incense was served, the fruit table was placed, and the fresh fruits were placed on the vermilion plate, and all kinds of sugar crisps were placed next to it.

"Tang Seng is out!" Qi Xu saw the monks coming in from the side of the dojo.

A mage wearing a brocade robe and holding a nine-ring tin staff led a group of monks to pay homage to the emperor. After the prostration, each entered the meditation position. The monks began to chant and preach the law, and the Tang Emperor listened to the ears of the civil and military people under the colorful phoenix fan.

"It's really Tang Seng, his robe is similar to what I watched on TV. ”

"Your Majesty is so magnificent, and the banner behind him is as tall as a two-story building. ”

"I heard that today is the first day, and the emperor may not have participated in the future. ”

"I heard that after the festival, Tang Seng is going to learn the scriptures. ”

"Yes, yes, I heard that I am going to take some Mahayana Dharma and purify all sentient beings. ”

"If we don't follow along, maybe we can meet Sun Wukong. ”

......

Qi Xu, Qin Xian, and Ding Liang exchanged the information they heard, and the expressors expressed their feelings and opinions.

They were not interested in the Dharma preached by the monks in the ashram, but they paid close attention to the flags and canopies in the hall, and the news and gossip outside the hall.

After a group of eminent monks chanted and preached the Dharma, Chen Xuanzang, the world's great exposition, walked to the center of the dojo, sat down on a futon, and began to preach to the monks. The monks listened carefully, solemn and solemn, and Tang Emperor Li Shimin was also on the side, hearing the wonders, and from time to time he was amazed.

After another period of time, after Chen Xuanzang, the world's great expositional master, finished chanting and preaching, Tang Emperor Li Shimin went to the center of the dojo, pulled Chen Xuanzang up, and entered the main hall of the temple together, and bowed four times in front of the Buddha.

"Are they bowing their doors? Your Majesty and Tang Seng are bowing!"

"Haven't you read Journey to the West? Otherwise, why would the daughter king call Tang Seng and his brother?"

"Hey, I was looking at the monkey at the beginning, who paid attention to this. ”

When the two of them came out, they returned to the center of the dojo.

Master Xuanzang said: "The poor monk is favored by heaven, and when the Dharma is over here, he will choose an auspicious day to go to the west to seek the true scriptures." If you don't go to the western sky, you can't have the true scriptures, and even if you die, you won't dare to return to China, and you will fall into hell forever. ”

After speaking, make incense in front of the Buddha and swear by it.

Tang Emperor Li Shimin was overjoyed, and immediately announced the draft decree and customs clearance documents of Hanlin. After a few strokes were written, they were shown to all the monks and officials present.

It was a little far away, Qi Xu and the others couldn't see it clearly, and asked Li Qiang urgently: "Qiangzi, you have good eyes, what is written on it?"

Li Qiang condensed, and while watching, he read: "The special master Xuanzang, who traveled thousands of mountains and asked for scriptures. If you go to the countries of the Western Provinces, you will not destroy the good karma, and you will be allowed to go according to it. Those who must go to the Tang Dynasty Zhenguan 13 years, the autumn auspicious day, the imperial text. ”

"Master Xuanzang! Chen Xuanzang! It's really Tang Seng!"

"We saw Tang Seng. ”

Originally, everyone just deduced from their looks and robes that the person in the middle of the dojo was Tang Seng, and now the imperial document has come out.

It is clearly written that Chen Xuanzang is Chen Xuanzang, who went to the West to learn scriptures!

Everyone was surprised and delighted for a while, this trip to the Huasheng Temple was not in vain! Even if they squeezed at the door for so long, it was definitely worth the money.

This is the real Tang monk, the royal brother of the Tang Emperor, the reincarnation of the golden cicada under the Buddha's account, the master of Sun Wukong, and the meritorious Buddha in the future!

This experience can be blown for a lifetime!

After the holy decree and the imperial document were shown to the public, they were handed over to Tang Seng. After Tang Seng bowed down to receive the order, Tang Emperor Li Shimin took a group of civil and military officials out of Huasheng Temple, ready to drive back to the palace.

At the end of the official, a voice came from afar: "Master Xuanzang, no matter where you are, the Tang Dynasty and the army are your strong backing!"

"Who is this? How does it sound like a player's voice. ”

"Players can also evolve the Temple of Life today?"

Qi Xu and the others were surprised.

Only Li Qiang knew who the owner of this voice was.

Cheng Huaimo, the eldest son of Lu Guogong of the Tang Dynasty, didn't expect him to come......
