The next day, Liu Zhuang, the son of the Han Dynasty, held a great court meeting, at the court meeting, Dr. Bo Yi sent to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, more than ten ministers such as Cai Yin and Qin Jing have turned back, and brought back a large number of Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues, and are waiting outside the hall to be summoned

Liu Zhuang immediately announced Cai Yin, Qin Jing and more than ten other envoys to meet him. After Liu Zhuang saw the Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues brought back by the envoys, he was very happy, and he was extremely polite to the two eminent monks, Murten and Zhu Falan, personally received them, and arranged for them to stay temporarily in the "Honglu Temple", the official office in charge of foreign affairs.

When he met with the two eminent monks, Chem Morteng and Zhu Falan, Liu Zhuang learned that the scriptures they brought were in Sanskrit, so he asked the two monks to help translate the scriptures, and the two monks readily agreed.

Although Morteng and Zhu Falan agreed to help translate the scriptures, they said that they had left their hometowns, such as duckweed without roots, and had no roots in the Han Kingdom, and hoped that Liu Zhuang could let them build a Zen temple so that they could translate the scriptures with peace of mind.

Liu Zhuang generously agreed to the request of the two, and promised that the two monks would build a temple for the second by the treasury at their expense.

The two monks were glad to thank him, and said that he would find a good land (feng shui treasure land) to establish a Zen monastery around Luoyang as soon as possible.

"I heard that the Buddhist scriptures sent by the Buddha Gate are mainly the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra", as well as more than a dozen Buddhist scriptures such as the "Ten Lands Broken Sutra", "Buddha Bensheng Sutra", "Buddha Benxing Sutra", etc., but they are all Sanskrit, and they must all be translated into Chinese, I am afraid it will take forty or fifty years.

"Forty-two chapters, what the hell is this, does Buddhism have this scripture?" asked the macaque king, scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Haven't you heard of this Buddhist scripture?" said the Jiao Demon King's eyes.

"I've never heard of this scripture in Buddhism. The Bull Demon King also frowned.

"Poof!" Chen Xian spurted blood directly, and said in his heart that the "Forty-two Chapters of the Sutra" is not the scripture with a treasure map in the "Lu Ding Ji"? Uh, by the way, it seems that I had also checked the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra" on the Internet at that time, and it is said to be the first Buddhist classic to be introduced to China.

"The Forty-two Chapters Sutra, the full name of the "Buddha Says Forty-two Chapters Sutra", there is no one for the time being, it is the two people who called a certain passage said by the "Buddha" as a chapter, a total of forty-two paragraphs, compiled into this "Buddha Says Forty-two Chapters Sutra". He also painted the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha to make offerings, so that the three treasures of the Eastern Buddha, Dharma and Sangha are sufficient, which is the beginning of the introduction of Buddhism into China. The Forty-two Chapters of the Buddha's Sutra is a collection of 42 quotations from the Buddha on matters such as keeping vows, forbearance, abstinence, perseverance, and contemplation of emptiness. Throughout the text, the importance of keeping precepts and forbearance is repeatedly emphasized. It was thought that it was to please the Han Emperor and make the foolish scriptures that made the believers endure humiliation, and to strengthen the rule of the imperial power, so that Buddhism could be supported by the imperial power in the eastern territory. Chen Xian saw that several elder brothers were all struggling with the matter of the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra", and couldn't help but explain.

"It was Se Mo Teng and Zhu Falan who compiled the Buddha's words on keeping precepts, forbearance and humiliation, and abstaining from desires into sutras, which was indeed conducive to the rule of imperial power and could win the support of the rulers. Eh, since this scripture has not yet come out, how do you know the contents of it?" The Bull Demon King nodded and said, saying that he suddenly found that something was wrong, this book has not been made yet, how can Chen Xian know what is written in it, and he couldn't help but ask with some doubts.

"I'm from the future. Chen Xian said in his heart and said with a smile: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed!"

"The Buddha's Honsheng Sutra, a sutra that talks about the deeds of Shakyamuni in his previous life and proclaims his greatness, the Buddha's Travels, and a sutra that narrates the Buddha's deeds and proclaims Buddhist teachings in poetic style, with the addition of The Forty-two Octopuses. Tsk, the Buddhist scriptures sent by Buddhism this time do not seem to be dry scripture teachings, and it seems that they do not plan to enter the east in a big way, but only to lay the foundation for early propaganda. The Jiao Demon King said with a smile.

"There is no five spirits corresponding to the gods, men and ghosts of heaven and earth, and Buddhism will not be able to enter the east in a big way. The Bull Demon King shook his head.

"It really made the second brother right, the two bald donkeys of Morteng and Zhu Falan really planned to stay on it, and even forced the Han Emperor to promise to establish a Zen temple for them on the grounds that they were homesick and could not concentrate on translating the scriptures. At this time, the macaque king's ears moved, and he smiled.

"Shameless!" the demon kings scolded after hearing the news from the macaque king. The strong man of the half-step Daluo actually said that he couldn't translate the scriptures quietly, wipe it!

"Although this Buddhist scripture is only to lay the foundation for Buddhism's large-scale eastward movement, but to lay a solid foundation, it is necessary to choose a feng shui treasure land, but you know where they chose, let's go and send them a big gift!"

"If you want Buddhism to lay a solid foundation, you must choose an excellent place for feng shui, either a dragon's nest or a phoenix's nest. There are only a few in Luoyang, it depends on whether the Han Emperor gives it or not, and the Taoist priests in Taishitai are not dry rice. The Bull Demon King laughed.

"Old lion, you don't have much friendship with Buddhism, what are you doing with giving them big gifts, it's better to give them to me!

"Phew, you stinky monkey with no conscience, I feel that every time you celebrate your birthday, the birthday gift I give is accepted by the dog? Okay, if you really want the things I send to the Buddha Gate, you can give them to you, are you sure you want it?"

"Yes, of course!" Monkeys like to be cheap, and they don't take advantage of it, that's a bastard, after listening to the lion camel king's question, the macaque king directly ignored the previous sentence of scolding him, and nodded again and again.

"The ritual vessel of the Buddha Gate has a dusk drum and morning bell, I plan to send a big bell to the Buddha Gate, since you want it, then I will let my subordinates send it to your peach mountain with great fanfare!"

The macaque king had a black line on his head and said sarcastically: "This good thing, you should give it to the Buddha Gate!"

After a day of laughter and laughter, the next day there was news that Morteng and Zhu Flange had chosen the address to establish the Zen Temple, which was in the north of the Sanli Imperial Road outside the Xiyong Gate in Luoyang.

The two monks of Mo Teng and Zhu Falan had just been sent to Liu Zhuang in the early dynasty, and Taishi Ling, the chief of Taishi Tai, who was in charge of recording history, calculating the calendar, and observing celestial phenomena, immediately came out to oppose it, saying that it was one of the dragon veins of the Han Dynasty, which was related to the national fortune, and if Buddhism established a Zen temple there, it would swallow the national fortune of the Great Han Dynasty, and the Great Han Kingdom would not last long.

As the emperor of the feudal society, in the world full of gods and Buddhas, Liu Zhuang would rather believe that the feng shui national fortune is not credible, but the king has no jokes, and has promised to take Mo Teng and Zhu Falan two monks, where to fancy, it will be funded by the treasury to build a temple for it, and it is not good to veto it directly, just say it again.

"Three miles outside Xiyong Gate, that's really where the dragon vein of the Han Dynasty is. It seems that the Buddha Sect is not only satisfied with a dragon's lair, but also wants to use the fortune of the Great Han Kingdom to replenish its own qi?" said the Bull Demon King with a smile.

Chen Xian, who came from later generations, knew that the site of the White Horse Temple was three miles outside Xiyongmen, and it was reasonable to say that it was really related to the national fortune. After all, there were fourteen emperors before and after the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the country was passed on for less than two hundred years (195 years), and the Tang Dynasty, which was posthumously crowned as the ancestor and Taoism as the state religion, was passed on for nearly three hundred years, while the Xia, Shang and Zhou, which had no sect, were handed down for more than four hundred years, and the Eastern Han Dynasty was indeed not long. However, Buddhism developed rapidly, after taking Morteng and Zhu Falan, there were Tianzhu monks who came to preach, built temples, and translated scriptures, and in less than two hundred years, there were three or four hundred more temples, and hundreds of scriptures were translated.

Behind the prosperity of Buddhism, is the weakness of the Han Dynasty, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Buddhism was extremely prosperous, there was an emperor who wanted to become a monk, well, the Northern and Southern Dynasties were never unified.

In this way, Buddhism, which does not pay taxes, seems to be a moth of the state, sucking the state dry and fattening itself?

Chen Xian held his chin and thought, of course he knows that this is unscientific, although the rise and fall of a country has something to do with sects, but it is not certain, and Buddhism cannot be beaten to death with a stick.

"It seems that in a short period of time, there will be no major disputes between the two sides, and they will only fight for the land in the future. Chen Xian said.

"Do you want to say it in the next sentence, it's not lively, let's disperse, and then you can go and accompany your female friend? Sure enough, it's a heavy color and a light friend!" the Macaque King teased with a smile.

"I didn't say anything about breaking up, Brother Monkey, don't wronged me!" Chen Xian did have that idea once, but he didn't say it, he didn't want to be guessed by the macaque king, but he couldn't admit it, so he hurriedly defended.

"Hmph! The wicked man sued first, and he dared to slander me and wronged you!" said the Macaque King with a smile.

Fighting, time passed, and in the evening, the Peng Demon King also rushed back, and the demon kings were celebrating again.

For a month in a row, both the Taoist and Buddhist sides were very quiet, but Chen Xian was bored, and every day he went out to fight the landlord with a few brothers guessing the fist, which was to hone his martial arts, and his days were very monotonous.

During this period, the Demon King went back to Cuiyun Mountain to visit his wife and children, but he quickly turned around, which made Chen Xian very suspicious, and several demon kings invited him to see if the Taoist Buddha was fighting, and it was true that he had a plot in Luoyang.

However, Chen Xian is not curious, and he does not delve into it, and every day he sees that the four demon kings, Jiao demon kings and macaque kings have either been famous for a long time, or the demon kings with their hands and eyes go out early and return late, and the guess in his heart is becoming more and more firm. The most important thing is that he found that the great monks in Luoyang City also came more and more, like rushing to the market, proving that his guess was not groundless.

After Chen Xian knew this, he didn't often stay in Luoyang City, he had nothing to do, he also went around Luoyang, and occasionally went to Luoshui to have a tryst with Mingxi.

Spring is going to summer, and the weather is getting hotter. On this day, Chen Xian and his five brothers chatted in the shade of the tree, and when they talked about the frequent appearances of the Luoyang monks recently, the Lion Camel King asked, "Brothers, is there anything that is going on with us?"

The Bull Demon King waved his hand and smiled: "The matter has not yet been clarified, it is difficult to say!"

"Listen to it, it's okay to guess, let's have a bottom in our hearts!" the Lioncamel King continued.

Although Chen Xian and Yu Tamarin King did not speak, they also stared at the Bull Demon King with burning eyes, wanting to know the unit.

The Bull Demon King held his chin and groaned for a while before saying, "It's okay to tell you about this, but you just listen to it, and don't take it too seriously!"

"Brother Niu, don't learn from the monkey, tell us quickly!" the Lion Camel King urged.

"This matter is also speculation, there is no conclusive conclusion, Luoyang has been full of dragon spirit recently, and there are rumors that the ancestral dragon will sleep nearby. The Bull Demon King said.

"The ancestral dragon has fallen hundreds of Yuanhui, and my physical body is afraid that it has turned into a mountain, what does it have to do with us?" asked the Tamarin King.

"Although the body of the ancestral dragon has been ossified, the dragon ball that has been cultivated for hundreds of millions of years must still shine, it is not inferior to the supreme treasure of the top innate spirit treasure, and it has the breath of the ancestral dragon, which can suppress all spirits, which is comparable to the innate supreme treasure. The Bull Demon King explained.

"This thing is unreliable, the three innate powers of the ancestral dragon, the phoenix ancestor, and the unicorn king, who are dominating in the chaos, the strongest under the saints, since they have left a legacy, must be preparing for the resurrection, how can it be easy for people to find out the clues?"

"If you want to say that the patriarch of the three clans, the one with the greatest chance of resurrection is still Feng Zu, and if you want to say that there is a vision about them, then the image of Feng Ming should also appear first. The Lion Camel King also said.

"The ancestral dragon is the strongest among the three, and it is not necessary to be the first to resurrect and show a vision!" the Jiao Demon King retorted.

"Let's discuss the reason for the dragon's anger, it is suspected that it is the ancestral dragon's relic, how can it become a debate about who will be resurrected first among the patriarchs of the three clans?" Chen Xian asked with his hand over his forehead and with a headache.

"There is also the possibility of the resurrection of the ancestral dragon, after all, if there is chaos today, it is the best time for those dead powerhouses to return. "The Bull Demon King said.

"Oh!" Chen Xian replied lightly, thinking that if the three clan patriarchs were really resurrected, they would inevitably change the pattern of the world, and I don't know what Journey to the West would become?

"But it's not easy for them to resurrect, they're too strong, whether it's the physical body or the primordial spirit, even if they start to recover, there is no time for the primordial meeting, don't think about moving. The Bull Demon King shook his head.

"Damn, it will take a Yuan Hui to revive the light ......" Chen Xian's scalp was a little hairy, and he secretly said If the saint is killed, how long will it take for the Dao to resurrect him?

"Okay, let's not talk about this, after all, it's a shadow, just listen to it, don't take it too seriously. Let me tell you something, I just heard from me that Buddhism wants to occupy Wutai Mountain and turn it into a Buddhist holy place. The Bull Demon King waved his hand.

"Although Wutai Mountain is not as good as Wuyue, it is also a good cave blessed land, and there are many monks cultivating there, how can it be given to the Buddha Gate?

"Buddhism is now full of saints, and there are good reasons, it will definitely be able to take Wutai Mountain, provoke successfully, and cause a fight. The Bull Demon King laughed.

"What is the reason?" Chen Xian asked curiously, although he knew that Wutai Mountain was eventually turned into a Buddhist holy place, he was still very curious about the reason for the other party to stay in Wutai Famous Mountain.

"There is a stupa of Emperor Ashoka on that mountain, and Manjushri lives there......"
