Datang Library

Chapter 919
Everyone in front of the Dali Temple only dared to yell, and did not dare to contradict Bai Fan too much, Bai Fan said loudly: "The imperial court will not take people for no reason. Half a year ago, when my Tang Dynasty was in a naval battle with the Tianzhu Kingdom, Xuanzang was in the middle of the sea. Tianzhu practiced Buddhism to learn Buddhist scriptures, but he defected to the enemy and helped the Tianzhu navy plan a night attack on our Datang navy, which caused our navy to lose more than 1 elite soldiers in World War I. It is not an exaggeration to kill ten times for this crime. How dare you do it He complained about grievances? Could it be that they are all his accomplices?"

Everyone was frightened by the news. They only heard that Abbot Tan Bei from Shaolin Temple said that he was arrested innocently. He didn’t hear that there was another episode. Well, it turned out that the abbot of Shaolin Temple concealed information and tricked us into the game!Everyone was furious.

There are also people who are skeptical. If this is the case, wouldn't the court have revealed the reason a long time ago?
"There is no evidence, how can we believe this? Master Xuanzang is a virtuous and eminent monk. You need evidence to judge the case and arrest people."

Bai Fan laughed and said, "Okay, that makes sense. We have already notified the King of Yue in the south to go to Tianzhu to collect evidence. Witnesses and testimonies will be available soon. On that day, when the Tang Navy defeated the Tianzhu Navy for the second time, an enemy general was captured. He personally admitted the matter to General Hou Junji, and when he arrived, the truth of the matter would naturally come to light.

As for whether you said that I, Bai Fan, was cowardly and self-serving, today I also tell you clearly that the battle between me and Xuanzang in Chang'an City will be held as scheduled, and I will give him justice no matter whether he wins or loses.

If you dare to stay here again to mess with the public, don't blame me, Bai Fan, for being rude. The imperial court's hundreds of thousands of troops are not cold, and it's not like they can't kill people who rebel in the country. "

The call made everyone sweat, and they all rushed to salute and fled in a hurry. The Dali Temple Minister greeted him hurriedly with a smile, and took Bai Fan in.

The time soon came to the day of the battle of martial arts agreed by the two parties, and the stadium outside Chang'an City can be said to be full of people and very lively today.

Originally, Bai Fan wanted to close the door to sell tickets, but seeing the popularity, if he dared to sell tickets, the stadium would probably be demolished, so he might as well start a game of handicap to have fun. Those who set up snack stalls made a fortune.

There are a lot of people coming from the Taoist side, basically all the sects inherited from Taoism have come. Countless elders from the Taoist sect who are rarely seen come out of the mountain to pay attention to this once-in-a-century Buddhist and Taoist battle.

On the other hand, people in the Buddhist sect seem to be very withered. There are not even 1000 Buddhist monks who can occupy a seat. There are only a few hundred people, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. After the age of 50, young people need to serve the country and cannot be family members.

And those martial arts people who are not firm and close to Buddhism, in this environment, can only be reduced to spectators, and basically dare not stand on the side of Buddhism. If the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism affects themselves, it will be a disaster .

In the middle of the stadium, headed by Xuanzang, all the old monks sat on both sides of him, but there was only one person on the opposite side. The Taoist sect did not send many people to show off, only Baifan's young disciple Lingzhen was alone, but now Lingzhen can't be regarded as Little monk.

At that time, Lingzhen was 13 years old, and now seven or eight years have passed. Lingzhen is in his 20s, a young man. After realizing that Buddhism is everywhere, he is not obsessed with becoming a monk or not, and even Bai Fan wants to arrange a marriage for him.

"Bai Fan, the poor monk is challenging you, why don't you dare to send a doll?" Xuanzang said loudly.

After listening to Abbot Tanbei say that Lingzhen has a heart-to-heart connection, Xuanzang felt a little fear of Lingzhen, and even ignited the fire of jealousy in his heart. We monks did not understand the supreme supernatural power of Buddhism, but let a Shura What an irony that the apprentice has completed his cultivation!
He thought it was a trick for Bai Fan to send this disciple to play, and he changed because he couldn't win, so he opened his mouth to run again.

"That great monk, he is justified, and his teacher is full of peaches and plums. You are no match for any one, and you still want to fight against him? Today, I, my little brother, will fight on behalf of the teacher. If you win, I will count as you winning my master. Could it be that you are afraid? I used to be a young monk, and I am also proficient in Buddhism. I don’t know if you have practiced Buddhism in Tianzhu for ten years, can you beat me, a junior who has studied in Tang Dynasty for ten years?” Ling Zhen said loudly, his whole body With half-step peerless martial arts, he speaks with such air that the audience can hear it.

Bai Fan also opened his mouth and said: "Buddhism has a good mood to sit down and discuss Taoism, so I will send a disciple to meet you for a while. Bai has something to say first. If you win me, my disciple, then I, Bai Fan, will lose. I will never deny it. All fellows in the world will do it." a testimony."

Many reputable people around nodded their heads one after another, and the apprentice took the place of the teacher to fight, which was in line with the rules of the world.

Xuanzang said to Li Erlang who was on the stand: "Your Majesty, the poor monk came back and heard that it was the Marquis of Lantian who led people to flatten the big temples, which caused the world to misunderstand my Buddhist sect deeply, and many monks were displaced. Please, if the poor monk wins the fight by chance, can he give justice to the monks who suffered innocently back then."

Du Ruhui sternly shouted: "Monk is bold. Even though Lantianhou took the lead in promoting many temples back then, he was also ordered by the court to investigate the case. All the cases have evidence to check and have been judged by the people. Do you want to give those criminals Can the monk overturn the case?"

Xuanzang shook his head and said: "The poor monk dare not, anyone who breaks the law before the national law shall be punished.

It’s just that the imperial court listened to Lan Tianhou’s words and revised the decree that believers in Buddhism must be 50 years old before they can become monks. "

Li Er's face remained motionless, and after he casually glanced at Bai Fan, he said loudly, "I'm sure."

Looking at Xuanzang's every move, Lingzhen suddenly seemed to see through something, and shouted: "Old monk, your mind is not pure, not only leaking secrets to the enemy navy to let them attack Datang, but also wanting to The enemy invaded the Tang Dynasty to avenge Buddhism? Which country are you from?"

What? ? ?Everyone around was shocked, what happened?
Especially Hou Junji, who would have stepped forward to kill Xuanzang with his sword, why didn't he know about this, how could he have survived to this day if he had known?
Li Ji standing next to him stopped immediately, and it was not his turn to act before His Majesty.

Basically, everyone knew that Bai Fan had a young disciple who was born in Buddhism and had the ability to understand his mind, so many people immediately believed it. Even Li Er blushed with anger, what a monk.

Xuanzang's face remained unchanged and he said, "You are just like your master, you are an apprentice, you don't dare to discuss the Dharma directly, and you do all kinds of nasty things that can't be put on the table, how can the poor monk do such things as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty? I am a monk, how can I help the enemy country to make suggestions? Is this how you slander me and talk nonsense?"

At this time, Bai Fan said: "Lingzhen, if he wants to fight, he should win him a fair fight, and we will talk about other things later."
