Chapter 715: A Monk from Outside

"The poor monk has passed on your mantle, is it because he still doesn't want to call me Master?" asked Master Xuanzang.

Chu He was a little stunned, originally thinking that Master Xuanzang should not care about these red tape people.

That's a bit hard to answer.

If Master Xuanzang's methods come true, and the "Three-Body Theory" is infinitely circulating, it will be equivalent to one person turning into four Da Luo Jin Immortals, and Chu He will call him a master, and it will not be a loss.

Just when Chu He hesitated, a gust of wind suddenly blew.

kept knocking on the door of Master Xuanzang's meditation room.

Master Xuanzang sighed and got up to open the door of the meditation room.

But there was no one outside the door.

Only the moonlight bent into the meditation room and fell on Master Xuanzang's bald head, as if raising a halo.

Gradually, the moonlight faded, Master Xuanzang turned around, his expression was a little strange, and he frowned and said to Chu He: "You go back to the room to rest first! I passed on your scriptures, you should remember them all, don't forget them." ”

Chu He nodded yes, but his heart was full of doubts.

The moonlight was strange, but Chu He opened his eyes to see it, but he couldn't see anything, as if it was really just a natural vision.

After that, for a long time, Master Xuanzang never summoned Chu He again.

did not continue to write the Tang Dynasty Western Regions, and at the same time continued to advance the journey to the west.

Chu He is not in a hurry, he has only comprehended some of the fur in "The Theory of the Three Bodies", and he wants to use this skill to change the direction of the plot characters in the Journey to the West, which is too reluctant.

It is under this gentle daily life that time flows slowly.

In the twenty-first year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin, who was getting older, missed his second son more and more, and despite the prevention of the Manchu ministers, he insisted on resealing the second son Li Tai as King Pu and recalled him to Chang'an.

For a while, Chang'an, which was originally calm, began to have a strange atmosphere.

Of course, the matter of the court does not involve Buddhism for the time being.

No matter how those princes and nobles, civil and military ministers thought of Li Tai's return to Chang'an, it seemed that the purity of Buddhism had been preserved.

It's just that when Li Tai re-entered Chang'an, the peace of Buddhism was quickly broken.

This prince, who was once only half a step away from the position of the crown prince, was sent to a remote place, and everyone thought that he would definitely become more and more emaciated, and Li Tai, who was not in good health, should have almost run out of oil.

But this former King of Wei and now King Pu are not only vigorous and radiant, but also have a swollen and fat body in the past, but now he has also lost weight healthily, looking much more handsome and dignified, and has a little bit of Li Shimin's youthful demeanor.

Officials with shallow eyes and a political sense that can only be regarded as reluctant breathed a sigh of relief.

This King Pu behaves like this, and it seems that he has no intention of taking the throne. Otherwise, it will definitely make itself more miserable, so as to win Li Shimin's sympathy.

But the really smart people are more vigilant.

Being in the temple, Chu He got very different news.

When Li Tai entered Chang'an, he came back not only himself, but also a group of wives and concubines, as well as a few monks from Tianzhu.

These monks seemed to be particularly courteous to Li Tai, and the monks of some temples in Chang'an also took the initiative to visit after hearing about it, but they were all turned away.

One of the monks from Tianzhu even said frankly through the door that in the entire Tang Dynasty, except for Master Xuanzang, there was no second monk who was qualified to exchange Buddhism with them.

When he heard the news of these Tianzhu monks, for some reason, Chu He thought of the strange moonlight that night.

And these days, Master Xuanzang's behavior has become more and more strange.

Chu He, dressed in white and with most of his head wrapped in gauze, was sitting upright under the plum tree and comprehending the "Three-Body Theory".

After half a year of practice, Chu He finally grasped some of the true meaning of this scripture.

I also have some ideas on how to change the direction of Journey to the West and change the plot, just waiting for the opportunity to practice.

Just when Chu He was thinking about whether to go to Cheng Yanjin again and ask him to help urge a change.

Two full-armoured, burly soldiers broke into the Zen monastery of the Chu River all the way.

"You're a debate monk?"

"Lu Guogong has an order, let you go over!"

What a coincidence!

Chu He frowned, in the past six months, Cheng Yanjin had never taken the initiative to contact him.

What is the purpose of calling people to spread it like this now?

Chu Hezhi is not worried that Cheng Biting Jin will not be good for him.

Although that guy was by no means good at stubble, if he really had the heart to deal with him, it would not be two soldiers who came at this time, but hundreds of special armor soldiers who were in groups, heavily armed, and specially aimed at monks.

When he came to the Lu Guogong Mansion again, Chu He was directly led to the study.

Although Cheng Yanjin is a big old man, he is not without ink, and he has more books in his study than many civil officials.

And judging by the many yellowed pages, it's not just decorative items.

"You're here! Sit! Drink tea... Cheng Yanjin beckoned to Chu He, and the maid who had already fried tea on the side, brewed a bowl of tea with a strange taste and even more strange color, and handed a bowl of tea to Chu He.

Looking at the green onions, ginger, dates, orange peels, dogwoods, mints and other things floating in the tea bowl, where did Chu He have a little appetite.

Although Chu He promoted the so-called 'Buddha tea' in the temple as early as a few months ago, which is actually 'clear tea', it is only in some temples that it has received a little attention. Mo said that it was the entire Tang Dynasty, even many upper-class nobles in Chang'an looked down on Chu He's 'vulgar' way of drinking tea.

Obviously, Cheng Yanjin asked Chu He to drink tea, and he also meant to 'mention' him and wanted to correct his mistakes.

Otherwise, with Cheng Biting Jin's usual style, he should have asked Chu He to drink at this time.

As for the precept that monks can't drink alcohol, it's bullshit at Cheng Biting Jin.

"I won't drink the tea, the princes and nobles are busy, and I don't know what is the matter with summoning the little monk?" Chu He asked straight to the point.

Master Xuanzang was quiet and quiet, just practicing penance behind closed doors every day, translating Buddhist scriptures.

Master Xuanzang, who once caused an infinite sensation in Western countries and eloquently cultivated five thousand monks and Buddhas, returned to the Tang Dynasty and returned to Chang'an, but he lived in a simple place. did not carry a huge advantage, popular throughout the country, at the invitation of many people with a heart to Buddhism, to take charge of the head of the Middle-earth Buddhism, set off a religious revolution, and Taoism wrestled wrists, and even fought for secular power.

As a result, Cheng Yanjin, who was always keeping an eye on Master Xuanzang, gradually relaxed his vigilance under the instruction of Li Shimin.

Chu He, the so-called internal response and secret agent, seems to have gradually gone underground and entered 'dormancy'.

And today, Cheng Biting Jin summoned such a high-profile summons, Chu He was very sure that it was not for Master Xuanzang's business.

Sure enough, Cheng Biting Jin put down the wolf pen that was stained with ink, but had not started writing for a long time, and stared up at Chu Daodao: "In Chang'an City, a few Tianzhu monks have come recently, do you know?"

Chu He's heart moved, nodded and said, "I really know." ”

Cheng Yanjin said again: "Then do you know that they presented the elixir from Tianzhu to Your Majesty. ”

"King Pu has already tried it, but it has worked wonders. ”
