Liaozhai: Starting from Inheriting Taoism

Chapter 293

"Please take it to the attic."

The student turned around and left after hearing the words. Not long after, Guanyin came in. At this time, Guanyin did not transform, but only restrained her own breath.

Yuanzheng had already prepared tea, when he saw Guanyin coming in, he made a gesture of invitation and poured a cup of tea for him.

Avalokitesvara was not polite either, and sat directly opposite Yuanzheng. In fact, it was the first time she saw Yuanzheng's true face. Although she was beaten by Yuanzheng last time, Yuanzheng still used Yuanqi song to project What the human form did, seeing Yuanzheng this time, looking at his elegant temperament, his aura is so ordinary to the extreme that no one can associate him with a quasi-sage powerhouse anyway.

Returning to the basics, this is a sign of cultivating the literary arts to an extremely deep level.

While Avalokitesvara was looking at Yuanzheng, Yuanzheng was also looking at Avalokitesvara. In fact, he still admired Avalokitesvara very much. In order to become stronger, he gave up some things appropriately. In fact, there was nothing wrong with it. It was just that his personal views were different, and there was no need to criticize anything. Apart from other opinions, Guanyin’s ability is very strong. In Buddhism, her strength may not even rank in the top ten, but when it comes to Buddhist beliefs, apart from the two saints and the Tathagata Buddha, Guanyin must be counted. .

This is the embodiment of Guanyin's wisdom and hard work. In the past, Manjushri and Puxian were afraid of leaving grandchildren, but it was far behind.

"Her Majesty Guanyin, this is the tea I personally planted, and it's a bit unique, you might as well give it a try."

Yuanzheng made a gesture of invitation, and Guanyin then turned his attention to the tea. He was thinking about something and didn't notice it, but at this time, Guanyin noticed that the steaming hot tea was filled with a fragrance. Wen, there is actually some refreshing feeling.

I couldn't help picking up the teacup, and took a sip. It was slightly sweet in the mouth, but it was endless aftertaste in my throat, with a hint of sweetness. The most important thing was that when the tea entered my throat, it seemed that my thinking became clearer. Can help enlightenment, what kind of tea is this!

Guanyin looked at Yuanzheng in horror, tea that can help her in this realm is rare.

"How about it?"

"Good tea."

Yuan Zheng smiled slightly.

"It's just the tea I grow myself. It's not good. It's just more attentive. If Venerable Guanyin likes it, you can take some with you when you leave."

Guanyin looked at Yuanzheng's face, as if he wanted to see whether Yuanzheng was sincere or not, but he didn't seem to see the slightest bit.

At this time, Guanyin couldn't help but secretly sighed in her heart. Before she came, she thought about what to do if Yuan Zheng died on that day. That kind of caressing, not to mention the fact that Yuanzheng entered Taoism through literature, and he still opened his own door in literature Taoism. His mind may be broader, and his thoughts are even more different from others.

"Then thank you, fellow daoist."

After drinking a cup of tea, Guanyin saw that Yuanzheng still didn't ask her why she came, she couldn't help it after all, alas, the initiative rests with the other party after all.

"Fellow Daoist, this time the poor monk came here, and I want to discuss two matters with Fellow Daoist."

"Honorable Avalokitesvara, please speak."

Guanyin thought for a while, "The last time I came to see fellow daoist rashly, I was really offended. The first thing I did this time was to apologize to fellow daoist, and hope that fellow daoist can settle down with fellow daoist."

"This is a trivial matter. Venerable Guanyin doesn't need to worry about it. Just treat it as a friendly exchange between fellow daoists. It's just that fellow daoists were too hostile at the time, but it almost made my school disappear. I hope that fellow daoists will meet again in the future." Only the disciples of the academy can be merciful."

Avalokitesvara's face froze, she couldn't understand Yuanzheng's meaning, it meant that she was bullying the small with the big, and she couldn't refute it, her mood was indeed affected that day, now thinking about it, if she was really on the spot that day After destroying more than ten thousand school disciples, I am afraid they will be possessed on the spot.

"Fellow Daoist is right, the poor monk was really reckless last time," said Guanyin, stretching out one hand, and a bottle appeared in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, in this bottle is the innate water essence, Sanguang Shenshui, which has the ability to remove the bones of the living dead and create all things. I give it to you as an apology for your last recklessness. Please accept it."

Yuan Zheng looked at the bottle in Avalokitesvara's hand. He had already guessed that Avalokitesvara had found the source of the Sanguang Shenshui, and now it seems to be a real hammer.

Smiling and nodding, this is a good thing, don't let it go for nothing, "Honor Guanyin has a heart."

Seeing that Yuanzheng accepted the Sanguang Shenshui, Guanyin also heaved a sigh of relief. With this foundation, we can start talking about the second matter.

"What do fellow daoists think about the amount of robbery?"

Hearing this, Yuanzheng also guessed the purpose of Guanyin's coming, and shook his head with a smile, "This is the only way for the heaven and earth to run. When the prehistoric era was first established, the fresh air rose and the turbid air fell. At that time, the prehistoric world was still the same The innate aura is the main one, but now even the acquired aura is dissipating, which is far from enough to supply so many practitioners to practice. Therefore, the interval between this calamity is getting shorter and shorter. The test is actually just to clear up some moths in the world, to make up for the inadequacies if there is more damage, this is the great way of heaven and earth."

It was the first time for Guanyin to hear such a straightforward and unique opinion. Although he wanted to refute it, he didn't know how to refute it. In the end, he could only acquiesce in this statement.

"Fellow Daoist really understands people. If the calamity is coming again today, and the great prosperity of the Buddhist sect is on the rise, it is better to avoid the calamity. It is inevitable. Therefore, the Buddha wants to actively guide the change of the calamity through planning, and make the world The casualties in the room were minimized. My Buddha has already reached a consensus with the dragon and phoenix clans of the three religions, heaven, earth, mansion, and other clans. Even the fellow Taoists in Huoyun Cave knew about it. It’s a matter, now I’m going to make up for it, I hope fellow Taoists can make a living for the common people in the world, and open the door of convenience.”

Sure enough, she has stayed in Buddhism for a long time, and her opening is awe-inspiring and righteous, but is she just a fledgling Xiaobai?

Yuan Zheng looked at Guanyin with a half-smile, sipped tea, and shook his head endlessly.

Guanyin's heart sank, and she also knew that she was wrong again. Although Yuanzheng was born not long ago, his ability is more powerful than most people he has seen before. I am afraid that this way of my own will not work. It seems that I still have to Pay some price?

"Of course, my buddha will not let fellow daoist help in vain. If you have any requests, it's okay. As long as my buddha can do it, I will definitely consider it."

This is the truth.

Yuanzheng put down the teacup, looked at Guanyin and said, "I heard that there is a golden lotus in Buddhism called Twelve-Rank Merit Golden Lotus?"

Avalokitesvara flinched when she heard the words, but she was angry in her heart. Yuan Zhengzheng is really a lion. It is the ultimate innate spiritual treasure of Buddhism to suppress luck. It has not recovered to its peak because it was swallowed by the mosquito before. But the lifeblood of Buddhism, Yuanzheng actually wanted to play Jinlian's idea.

Yuan Zheng noticed Guanyin's face, and knew that Guanyin had misunderstood him.

"Honorable Avalokitesvara, don't misunderstand me. I don't want your Buddhist treasure, but I just want a lotus seed. There should be three lotus seeds left in the twelfth-grade golden lotus. I don't want much, just one of them. "

It turned out to be the case.

Guanyin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words. Although lotus seeds are also very precious, they are much easier to accept than the twelve-grade golden lotus.

"Fellow Daoist, this poor monk can't be the master in this matter. We still need to send a letter to the Buddha. He will make the decision. Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist."

Yuanzheng was not in a hurry, and nodded.

Afterwards, Avalokitesvara sent a letter to Tathagata with a slight movement of Yuanshen, telling him about the matter.

a long time.

"Promise him!"

After getting a response, Guanyin returned to his seat again, "My Buddha has already responded, and my Buddha can agree to this request. I only hope that fellow Taoists can also follow the agreement, and open the door of convenience for my Buddhist sect to benefit the world."

Yuan Zheng smiled and nodded in response, "It's natural, the general trend is rolling, and Yuan Zheng doesn't want to go against the trend if it is not necessary."

After another conversation, Guanyin left the Zhengqi Academy and continued walking towards Chang'an City with Mu Zha.

Since Tang Wang Li Shimin was sent back to the palace by Black and White Impermanence, he has been restless. Thinking of the scenes in hell, he really wanted to do something for those dead souls to resolve their grievances and alleviate their pain.

"Father, maybe you can ask the teacher's opinion on this matter. With the teacher's ability, he will definitely be able to point out the way for the father."

That's right, what are you struggling with here, just ask Won Jae directly.

"What Gan'er said is true, but it's the father who is in trouble. In this case, you go back to the academy first, tell Yuan Zai that the father wants to visit him, and ask Yuan Zai if he has time."

Li Chengqian nodded quickly when he heard the words. Ever since he came back from the academy, he has started government affairs as the crown prince. He has been busy all the time, and he has no time to go back to the academy to see the teacher, but now it is just right.

After leaving the upper study room, Li Chengqian sent someone to prepare gifts and headed towards Zhengqi Academy.

After Yuanzheng heard Li Chengqian's words, he didn't refuse, but just changed the lotus seeds of the twelfth-grade meritorious golden lotus.

"Prince, go back and tell your majesty that the door of the academy is always open for your majesty. If your majesty has time, feel free to come."

Li Chengqian was overjoyed when he heard the words. This Zhengqi Academy is probably the most special place in the entire Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin can come and go freely in other places, but only Zhengqi Academy needs the teacher's permission if he wants to come.

After returning to the palace, Li Shimin was overjoyed when he got the response, and quickly ordered someone to prepare a gift and set it up in the Zhengqi Academy.

In the academy, Li Shimin was sitting opposite Yuanzheng, sipping green tea, feeling rare peace and relaxation.

"Yuanzai, in my sleep the day before yesterday, I saw that I was suddenly lured to the underworld by the black and white impermanence of the underworld, where..."

Li Shimin told Yuan Zheng what he had seen and heard, but he saw that Yuan Zheng was not surprised at all. Apart from being amazed in his heart, he also cared more about Yuan Zheng's opinion.

"If Your Majesty wants to resolve the grievances, it's actually not that difficult. It's rare that there is a perfect way to eliminate the grievances accumulated in the Great Tang. I know there is a way to do this."

"How?"

Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked.

"Dharma."

"Buddhism?"

"Dharma."

Thinking of the magic of Buddhism, if Li Shimin realizes something, this is indeed a good way.

"Also ask Yuanzai to teach me."

"Your Majesty can call a person who is profound in the Dharma in Chang'an City, and open an altar to preach, and use the Dharma to resolve grievances. As for the effect, it depends on the ability of this Buddhist."

Li Shimin knew what Yuanzheng meant. Looking at Yuanzheng, he actually felt that Yuanzheng was more suitable than Buddhists. Before he came, he also wanted Yuanzheng to come out of the mountain, but seeing Yuanzheng's meaning, he had no such idea. Now that Yuanzheng has given a solution, you might as well give it a try. If the effect is not good, just ask Yuanzheng to help.

Making up his mind, Li Shimin did not delay, and after bidding farewell to Yuan Zheng, he returned to Chang'an City.

At this time, Guanyin also turned into an old monk, and walked into Chang'an City with Mu Zha.

"Have you heard? Master Xuanzang, the eminent monk of Ci'en Temple, is going to open an altar to give a sermon in the temple. Let's go and have a look."

Xuanzang?

After Guanyin heard it, her heart moved. She had a premonition that Xuanzang, who was mentioned by the passers-by, might be the person she was looking for.

Then he followed the passers-by and walked towards the Ci'en Temple. At this time, the Ci'en Temple was already overcrowded. It seems that Master Xuanzang is indeed profound in Buddhism and respected by others. He opened the altar to preach, and he was able to attract so many letters.

Guanyin's heart moved, and a cassock and a Zen staff appeared in his hands.

The cassock and Zen staff were of high quality, and they looked extraordinary at first glance. People around quickly noticed the extraordinaryness of these two treasures, and a man who looked like a wealthy businessman stepped forward and asked.

"Master, the cassock and Zen staff in your hands are extraordinary. I wonder if you can sell them to my subordinates and make offerings at home?"

Avalokitesvara smiled when she heard the words, "Of course it is possible, it just depends on whether the donor is destined or not?"

"Oh, what is fate and what is no fate, don't those with more money have fate, and those with less money have no fate, right?"

There was something in this person's words, and the people around heard the words and pointed them out, thinking that Guanyin was really going to be auctioned.

But Guanyin would not care about these, just continued, "Those who are destined will not get a penny, and those who are not destined will not be easy."

The man did not give up, "Then master, see if I have such a fate?"

As he said this, this person also took out a large handful of banknotes from his pocket, it seemed that he insisted on using the banknotes to seek fate.

The people around were also amazed by the man's handwriting. Although the cassock and Zen staff were extraordinary, they didn't seem to have much effect in holding them, and it seemed a bit unworthy to spend such a price.

All the onlookers looked at Guanyin, wanting to see how she would respond.

Guanyin didn't look at the bank note in the man's hand, but just shook his head at the man, "The benefactor has nothing to do with this cassock and Zen staff, don't you need to force it?"

"What if I absolutely want this treasure?"

"Three thousand gold."

"Three thousand gold!"

Why don't you go grab it? The man cursed inwardly. He would be an idiot if he really spent three thousand gold to buy the cassock and Zen staff. Come and ask yourself if you have fate.

The noise grew louder, but it caught the attention of Xuanzang who had just come out. When everyone saw him coming, they made way for him. Xuanzang came all the way to Guanyin, and saw that the cassock and Zen staff in his hands were also the same. Startled, he could tell with his eyes that the cassock and Zen staff in Avalokitesvara's hands were both high-quality Buddhist treasures.

"Amitabha, this is?"

Xuanzang looked at the two Guanyins in surprise, not knowing why they came.

"Master, can you see if Master Xuanzang is related to these two treasures?"

The onlookers shouted suddenly, Guanyin was also looking at Xuanzang at this time, the person in front of him was the tenth reincarnation of Jin Chanzi he was looking for.

"Master Xuanzang, you might as well try it on."

Try it on?Xuanzang was a little confused.

"Senior brother was joking, but the poor monk has no money to buy it."

Avalokitesvara shook her head and smiled, "Those who are predestined will not get a penny."
