Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 686 Successfully built the foundation, about to practice and become a real Tang monk
"Hahaha……"

In the Chengxiang Hall in Chang'an City, His Majesty Li Yuan held the dragon's blood cup in one hand and played with the stone image in the other. While watching these young ladies dancing in cool clothes, singing and dancing, he let out a hearty laugh Voice.

"So, have all these guys from the Buddhist sect found Pei Qing at your house?"

"exactly!"

Pei Ji smiled wryly, and made a helpless expression towards His Majesty Li Yuan.

"The sage doesn't know something. As long as the old minister returns to the mansion now, within a quarter of an hour, a certain virtuous and eminent monk will come to visit and tell the minister about his interests, saying that King Qin's actions have shaken the hearts of the world, etc. I hope the old minister can Please ask the sage to dissuade King Qin from continuing to pursue the matter."

"Then Pei Qing, aren't you very proud these days?"

Li Yuan casually threw the stone image in his hand on the table, and looked at Pei Ji with a smile.

"I know that you like to talk about scriptures, but I have no interest in it. Now every day, great virtuous monks come to accompany you to talk about all things are empty. Isn't it right in Pei Qing's arms?"

"If they come to talk about Buddhism, the old minister is indeed very willing..."

Pei Ji smiled wryly again.

"But now each of them is saying that there is a catastrophe in Buddhism, that King Qin's move endangers the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and so on. What they say inside and outside the words is to ask the old minister to persuade the saint, so the old minister can only thank you for not being sensitive!"

"Then Aiqing, you can also listen to them, come and persuade me!"

Li Yuan held the dragon's blood cup, raised it to Pei Ji, and continued.

"You and I are brothers and sisters, maybe I will listen to your advice..."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Pei Ji had a grateful smile on his face, but was speechless in his heart.

My good friend is really too much!

Every day when you look at the list of properties that the King of Qin sent to the state treasury and the internal treasury, you can’t even close your mouth with a smile. You look like you want to end up in person and follow the King of Qin to rob those Buddhist monks...

Don't talk about me, Pei Ji, even if your favorite lady Dou is alive now, will you listen to her advice not to rob the monk?
"The saint's words really ashamed the old minister!"

Pei Ji looked serious and bowed to His Majesty Li Yuan.

"The old minister is favored by the sage, and he has a lot of trust. He is an extremely human minister, and the old minister will repay himself. But this time, he thoroughly investigated the case of Monk Puying's assassination of King Qin. Since the saint decided to investigate to the end, how could the old minister do it at this time?" How about exhorting the sage to stop?"

"Hahaha……"

After hearing Pei Ji's words, His Majesty Li Yuan showed a satisfied smile on his face, and then he pointed at Pei Ji with his finger.

"Pei Qing's words are full of sincerity. I can't turn a blind eye to it... How about it! I give the lawyer and Linhai's son a title of county magistrate as a reward, Pei Qing, for caring about me so much."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Pei Ji was overjoyed. He got up and quickly walked out from behind the desks, and knelt down on the ground.

"Thank you, old minister, for the special encounter with the saint!"

"Free! Free!"

Li Yuan waved his hand in a good mood to tell Pei Ji to stand up, and then casually changed the topic to another side.

"Pei Qing, I sent someone to ask Qing Wei, that Big Dipper is really from Pei Juqing's family. I really envy him, he regained his youth after death, alas! I really want to regain my youth and live him for 500 years !"

"The old minister thought..."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Pei Ji immediately spoke up.

"For other emperors, even the first emperor may not be able to return to youth, but it is not the case for you, a saint. After all..."

Pei Ji looked left and right, then walked to His Majesty Li Yuan's side, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Which emperor in the world can be like you, a saint, with such a supernatural son-in-law who can even give you such a magical thing as the castle in the clouds. What's the problem with returning to youth?"

"Hahaha……"

After hearing Pei Ji's words, His Majesty Li Yuan burst into laughter.

"Pei Qing, what you said, I don't know that because of the relationship with the dragon's energy, the golden elixir, which has been used since ancient times, has no effect on the emperor?"

"That doesn't work for others!"

Pei Ji said to His Majesty Li Yuan solemnly.

"The old minister said just now that you, the saint, are an exception..."

……

In fact, it is not accidental that Pei Ji is now being targeted by Buddhist eminent monks, because the King of Qin's recent campaign against Buddhist monasteries that can be described as despondent (dry) minded (beautiful) crazy (beautiful) has led to the current situation in Beijing. Zhao's group of "eminent monks" started to jump around, looking for people to move around, trying to end this catastrophe of Buddhism.

Not to mention people like Pei Ji, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda who are originally Buddhist believers, even the Taifu Qing Liu Shilong, who doesn't believe in Buddhism at all, has eminent monks in his home. What's more exaggerated is that even the anti-Buddha fighter Qing Wei In the Qingdu temple, a genuine eminent monk was unexpectedly welcomed.

"The poor Qingdu temple is already a place like a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair in the hearts of the Buddhist monks in Chang'an. Master Xuanzang, you still have the courage to throw yourself into the trap. You really deserve to be a Tang monk who has to go through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships!"

After hearing Kong Qing's words, the fat monk in front of him, who was still a bit dark, suddenly felt a little confused, and didn't know how to answer.

He understands what the other party said, but if they are connected...

Even if it is called Wisdom Langzhao by others, any classic can be mastered at a glance, and it can be mastered as soon as it is learned, but it is still completely incomprehensible!But roughly based on the literal meaning, it seems that the other party is praising himself... Maybe it is like this!

Shouldn't he be humble then?
Looking at the dazed Tang Seng in front of him, Kong Qing's heart suddenly surged with the joy of having succeeded in his evil intentions. He raised his hand, and with a bang, he had a brain collapse on the top of Tang Seng's head.

"Come back to your senses, Tang Seng!"

good!Feels good!
This is a flag he set for himself when he watched "Journey to the West" when he was a child in his previous life. He must avenge the poor Monkey King and let Tang Seng try the headache. Now it has finally come true.

Although the Xuanzang in front of me is not the same as the master of a certain monkey, but everyone is Xuanzang, and the careless ones can just get along.

"By the way, Pindao heard that Master Xuanzang, you haven't been busy looking for various Taoist collections and historical books for the past two years, and repairing the problem of private goods after the spread of Buddhism to the east. Why do you have time to hang around here in Pindao?"

"Oh!"

After hearing Kong Qing's words, the Tang monk immediately reacted.

"Qingwei Tanyue, the poor monk came to visit today to ask Tanyue to make amends in front of King Qin, so that his subordinates will be merciful and spare these innocent monks in Chang'an."

It seemed that he felt that he had not been to the door for many years, and when he came, he was asking for such an embarrassing thing, which made Tang Seng somewhat embarrassed, so after saying these words, Tang Seng then bowed deeply to Kong Qing.

"By the way, in the past few years, Tanyue has sent people to the poor monk many times to bring the needed Taoist historical books. The poor monk has visited the door several times to thank him, but he has never met anyone from Tanyue. Today is just a special thank you."

"It's nothing, helping Tang Seng to learn scriptures is what every Tang person should do!"

Kong Qing waved his hands with a smile, and did not answer what Tang Seng said earlier about asking him to go to King Qin to make amends, but continued following Tang Seng's words.

"Not long ago, Pindao also heard that Master Xuanzang refuted an article by Monk Falin that refuted Taoism, saying that the Buddhist scriptures quoted in it were fake works by Buddhist monks in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. I heard that once the article was published, Monk Falin is going crazy, he almost came to the door with a knife and stabbed you to death, is there such a thing?"

"There is but there is..."

After hearing what Kong Qing said, Tang Seng nodded honestly, and then replied.

"However, this matter is also very strange for the poor monk. Originally, the poor monk wrote the article to discuss the origin of a certain issue with the great monk Falin alone, but he did not expect that the next day this article would be inexplicably rejected. The temples in Chang'an are covered with placards, and everyone knows them all at once..."

After hearing Xuanzang's words, Kong Qing silently revealed a smile that concealed his merit and fame.

But Tang Seng was very kind after all, and he didn't realize the deep meaning in Kong Qing's smile.

"The poor monk later heard that Zhang Daoyuan, the city god of Chang'an City, had done this with an organization called the Quan Yaolian. Then the poor monk went to the Temple of the City God to question Zhang Daoyuan why he did this, but he ignored the poor monk."

Speaking of this, Tang Seng quickly added another sentence.

"But in the end, the poor monk apologized to Monk Falin, and he has already forgiven the poor monk!"

"Xuanzang, did Falin forgive you?"

Kong Qing blinked with a smile, and said somewhat narrowly.

"But as far as Pingdao knows, in the end you and monk Falin held a Dharma meeting in Xingshan Temple and debated with each other for three days. In the end, after Falin was exhausted by your facts and reasoning, no one can be sure of what you said. The monk in the Northern and Southern Dynasties pretended to be false, so it couldn’t be the absurd words passed down to him after the Bodhisattva manifested himself, can this also be called forgiveness?”

"Hmm! After the Fa conference, the poor monk apologized to Monk Falin..."

Tang Seng nodded honestly again, and continued.

"After all, it's just some academic disputes. Great Monk Falin was also deceived by some fabricated classics. He is still very gentle and refined. After the poor monk apologized, he immediately forgave the poor monk!"

"Okay! If you say forgive me, forgive me..."

Kong Qing smiled and picked up the teapot in front of her, poured Tang Seng a cup of tea, and continued.

"How about it? Recently, comparing Taoist scriptures and Buddhist scriptures, plus the background when translating Buddhist scriptures, do you have any insights, Master Xuanzang?"

"There are indeed some, but it's still vague, it feels very broken, and it doesn't form a routine..."

Monk Xuanzang picked up his teacup meticulously, and thanked Kong Qing.

"However, the poor monk feels that he has indeed found the answers to the questions that puzzled the poor monk before. Indeed, as you Qingwei Tanyue said, when Buddhism spread in the Middle Earth, it borrowed from the classics of Taoism or Confucianism, and then the monks at that time did not Instead of mastering it, but directly annotating yourself with foreign classics, over time, it will lead to conflicts between various Buddhist sects."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Kong Qing looked at Monk Xuanzang with a smile on his face.

"Do you still want to go to Tianzhu to learn Buddhist scriptures and find the most original Buddhist classics for reference?"

"It was indeed the poor monk's plan before...."

Monk Xuanzang put down the teacup in his hand and said firmly.

"However, after studying for this period of time, the poor monk has faintly realized some truths that there is no truth outside the heart, the true nature is inside the body, and there is no need to seek it from the outside. What the poor monk needs now is to seriously sort out his own experience. As for looking for other Buddhist classics for comparison, let’s wait until the poor monk sorts out his own income!”

Seeing that Monk Xuanzang gave up his plan to travel to the West, Kong Qing couldn't help but feel very curious about his future, so he silently moved his mind and threw out an identification technique.

But just after Kong Qing glanced over Monk Xuanzang's steadfast face, his eyes froze.

Because at the bottom of the introduction, Kong Qing suddenly discovered that Xuanzang had practiced a self-created Taoist spirit preservation technique, and successfully built the foundation in just over three months. There is only one step left.

Young birthday!Tang Seng practiced Taoism!
Then when we talk about Tang Seng in the future, does it become Tang Dao?
