Taizong has always been vigorous and resolute, and the next morning, Taizong asked someone to write a customs clearance document for learning scriptures and covered it with the Tang Dynasty jade seal. The Qintian supervisor calculated that today was the auspicious day of the zodiac, and it was best to travel far away, so he summoned Master Xuanzang to come to the Hajj.

Chen Xuanzang entered the Jinluan Palace and made a big salute.

Taizong said: "Brother Yu, today is a good day to travel, everything is ready, the customs clearance documents have been prepared, and there is another purple gold bowl for you to use on the road." I also selected two walkers with good martial arts and foot strength to accompany you to protect you, and a silver saddle BMW to do your foot strength. Don't delay the good day, royal brother, let's go!"

Chen Xuanzang thanked him, received the papers, bowls and other items, and walked out of the hall with two entourages.

Taizong led the Manchu Dynasty to send it directly to the palace gate pavilion. The monks of Hongfu Temple and Xuanzang's apprentices were waiting in the post pavilion, bringing Xuanzang's clothes and some dry food, handing them over to Xuanzang, and they all bowed goodbye to him.

Taizong asked Xuanzang: "What do you call the Royal Brother Ya?"

Xuanzang said: "The poor monk is a monk and has no title. ”

Taizong asked the concubine beside him to pour two glasses of wine, handed one to Xuanzang and said: "Guanyin Bodhisattva said that there are three Mahayana scriptures in the western sky. The royal brother refers to the number of the scriptures, the name of the law is Sanzang, and I will give you the surname of the country and the name of the monk, called Tang Seng, how about it?"

Xuanzang has the name and name of the royal gift, and since then he has been called Tang Seng and is known as Master Sanzang.

Tang Seng thanked him, took the wine and said: "Your Majesty, wine is the first precept of Buddhism, and the poor monk has never drunk wine, and he does not dare to drink." ”

"Today's situation is special, and this is a vegetarian wine, so let's drink a glass to express the meaning of my candied action!"

Tang Seng didn't dare not drink, and was about to raise his glass to drink.

Taizong waved his hand again and said, "Wait!"

Taizong lowered his head, bent down, stretched out his hand and twisted a small handful of soil on the ground, stood up, gently flicked into Tang Seng's wine glass, and instructed: "Brother Yu, you have drunk this cup of homeland wine, remember: I would rather love the soil of my hometown, and I would not love ten thousand taels of gold in my hometown!"

Taizong has repeatedly emphasized that Tang Seng must remember to take the true scriptures back to China, not to be tempted by the wealth on the way, and not to be obsessed with the prosperity of other places.

Tang Seng understood what Taizong meant, thanked him, raised his glass and drank it all, knelt down with the two walkers, bid farewell to Taizong, and walked to the west in the cool autumn wind.

On September 13, the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Tang Sanzang Master Tang Seng received the imperial decree of Taizong, took two walkers, three people and one horse out of Chang'an City, and went west to worship Buddha and seek scriptures in Xitian Daleiyin Temple.

All the way, on the third day, the three of them came to Famen Temple.

Famen Temple was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was built after the first reincarnation of the golden cicada, and it was built after passing the scriptures into the eastern soil, and it is called "the ancestor of Guanzhong Tower Temple".

The abbot elder of Famen Temple had already heard that the royal brother Sanzang Master went west to learn scriptures, and he was going to pass through here, leading more than 500 monks in the temple to greet Tang Seng in front of the temple, and please enter the temple to offer tea and fast.

After fasting, a group of monks talked about Buddhism under the Buddha lamp, and talked about going to the west to learn scriptures.

The monks of Famen Temple all said that this time to go to the west, the mountains are high and the water is long, the road is difficult and dangerous, tigers, leopards and jackals are in charge, and demons and monsters are rampant. Tang Seng knew that they had good intentions, so he was silent, just pointing his fingers.

The monk asked, "What is the meaning of the Master holding his fingers?"

Tang Seng said: "The heart is born, all kinds of demons are born, the heart is destroyed, all kinds of demons are destroyed." I once made a great wish to the golden body of the Buddha in the temple of rebirth, and there was no reason to retreat. This time, but with my heart, I must go to the West Heaven, meet my Buddha, seek the true scriptures, make our Dharma wheel turn, and bless me with the Tang Dynasty Emperor Yonggu!"

The monks were all admired.

It was already in the middle of the moon, and everyone invited Tang Seng to enter the meditation room to rest.

The next morning, Tang Seng put on a brocade robe, came to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and worshiped in front of the statue of the Buddha: "Disciple Chen Xuanzang, go to the west to learn scriptures, and make a vow here: on the way, you will meet the temple to burn incense, meet the Buddha and worship the Buddha, and meet the tower to sweep the tower." I hope that my Buddha will be merciful, appear in the six golden bodies as soon as possible, give the true scriptures, and leave them to the east!"

After worshipping, Tang Seng returned to the meditation room, used morning fasting, asked the two entourages to prepare the horses for salutation, and went to bid farewell to the monks of Famen Temple.

The monks of Famen Temple knew that after Tang Seng went, they were afraid that it would be difficult to return to the east again, so they had compassion in their hearts and sent Tang Seng out of more than ten miles before saying goodbye and returning to the temple.

It was late autumn and there were few pedestrians on the road. In the cool breeze, the lotus leaves in the pond have long withered, and the red maple leaves fall with the wind, occasionally hitting the faces of Tang Seng and his party.

Looking up, the jackdaw on the tree was frightened, and whistling, flapping its wings and flying away, and the few sparse leaves were shaky, as if they were about to be in a hurry to sprinkle into the dirt, dust to dust, dust to dust, dust to dust.

Although the two entourages were ordered by the emperor to accompany Tang Seng to the West Heaven, they couldn't help but feel sad in their hearts. Sneaking a glance at Tang Seng, Tang Seng's expression was solemn and resolute, and he had no choice but to continue to move forward silently.
