Chapter 383 Ru Kong’s plan

After Rukong learned the news, a bold guess came to his mind.

Could Puyan be a disciple of Buddha?

As soon as this thought appeared, Rukong could no longer sit still and fell into deep thought.

Recalling the time when he knew Puyan, although Puyan was only a child at that time, he was very famous and was rumored to be very strange throughout Buddhism.

Some people even say that Puyan is an excellent bone that is rare to see in a hundred years and will definitely become a pillar of Buddhism in the future.

However, Jiyuan has publicly stated many times that these are all fallacies and that Puyan is just an ordinary disciple who is somewhat smart.

After hearing the news, Rukong became curious and went to Hanshan Temple to meet Jiyuan in person, hoping to meet Puyan.

Unexpectedly, Jiyuan refused.

"My scoundrel is not as smart as the legend says. He is just an ordinary novice. Don't praise him."

"I have here a volume of "The End of the Law" that Master Zhu Falan personally copied. Senior Brother Rukong happened to come and review it with me this time."

While Jiyuan refused Rukong's request, he also took out precious Buddhist scriptures to show others, hoping to divert Rukong's attention.

However, Rukong appears to be more interested in the "Dharma Extinction Sutra", but in fact he is wary.

Why did Jiyuan refuse Puyan to meet him? Is there something fishy in this?

Ru Kong put the question in his heart, but his face didn't show anything strange.

In the next few days, Rukong always wanted to find an opportunity to meet Puyan, but the brothers Jiyuan and Jizhen were always with him, never leaving.

There was no way, until Rukong finally left Hanshan Temple, he was unable to see Puyan.

It was not until three years later that Rukong and his disciple Wu Sheng came to Hanshan Temple again and asked for a competition in the name of competition between disciples.

Now Jiyuan no longer had any reason to refuse, so he had to ask Puyan to come forward.

When Rukong saw Puyan, he felt happy.

This boy has a handsome appearance, his eyes are alert and alert, and his divine light is restrained. He is really a good young man. If he can be admitted to the White Horse Temple, then in 20 years Buddhism will have another eminent monk.

When Wu Sheng and Pu Yan officially competed, Pu Yan's performance surprised Rukong even more.

Among the disciples of his generation at White Horse Temple, Wu Sheng was considered a very talented person, but now he seemed a little inconspicuous in front of Pu Yan.

Puyan was so good that Rukong was very satisfied with it from every aspect.

If he could have met this son three years ago, he would definitely take advantage of White Horse Temple's status in Buddhism to take Pu Yan under his sect.

But it's too late to say anything now. Even if he takes Pu Yan as his disciple, I'm afraid the other party will regard Ji Yuan as his master.

Thinking of this, Rukong understood why Jiyuan refused to see Puyan.

But Rukong did not give up.

Since Puyan cannot be accepted as a disciple, he must be included in the White Horse Temple.

Hanshan Temple is just a small temple. There are only two great monks, Ji Yuan and Jizhen, in the temple, and the rest are all Ji Yuan's disciples.

White Horse Temple is a large Buddhist temple and is fully capable of bringing Hanshan Temple under its jurisdiction. In this way, Puyan will naturally become a member of White Horse Temple.

When the time comes for the spread of Buddhism to be successful, and once you start practicing Zen and martial arts, you will be able to become the pinnacle of the White Horse Temple's martial arts in a short period of time.

This can also withstand the pressure of Nalanda Temple.

Although the Buddhist sect will not use direct force, it is not monolithic. There will still be competition between Buddhist temples.That's why Rukong values ​​Puyan so much.

Just when Rukong was preparing to draw Hanshan Temple into the same camp as himself by holding an unobstructed conference at Jialan Temple, he suddenly heard the news that Yue Chunqiu had attacked Hanshan Temple.

Rukong's first reaction was how about Puyan?
When the exact news came, Rukong breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Pu Yan was fine, but he had already left Hanshan Temple.

In order to bring Puyan back to the White Horse Temple, Rukong sent his disciple Wu Sheng to take Puyan back to the temple.

But Wu Sheng came back alone.

When Rukong received the news brought back by Wu Sheng, his first reaction was a sudden realization.

It turns out that the reason why Ji Yuan guarded Pu Yan so closely was not only because Pu Yan was his favorite disciple, but also because of his special status.

When he thought of this, the last trace of complaint against Ji Yuan disappeared in Rukong's heart.

Thinking about it from his perspective, if he were Ji Yuan, he probably wouldn't let others see Pu Yan at will.

After all, he was An Le Gong's only son, a true member of the Zhu family's royal family, and his dragon energy was very strong.

The reason why Rukonghui thinks that Jiyuan has known Puyan's true identity for a long time is because there is a Buddhist secret here.

The people of the Zhu family are endowed with dragon spirit, so the throne can only be held by people of the Zhu family.

If the Zhu royal family becomes a disciple of the three religions and practices the three religions, they will develop special martial arts with the help of their own dragon energy.

For example, Taoism's "Holy Dragon Secret", Buddhism's "Eight Parts of Dragon Divine Fire", Confucianism's "Purple Dragon Covering the Sky" and so on.

Therefore, all three religions intend to recruit the children of the Zhu family as disciples, but unfortunately there is still an ancestor of the Zhu family alive.

Zhu Taisui would never allow the children of the Zhu family to become disciples of the three sects. As for why he did this, Rukong didn't know the reason.

Now Jiyuan actually accepted Zhu Jingyan's son as his disciple, which made Rukong even more determined to win against Puyan.

He must be allowed to worship in the White Horse Temple.

And when Rukong knew that Zhu Jingyan had ascended the throne as emperor, he was even more certain that Puyan was most likely the son of Buddha in the prophecy.

After all, Puyan possesses the aura of a dragon and has outstanding Buddhist cultivation and martial arts attainments. If he is not a disciple of the Buddha, then who could be?
Therefore, Rukong sent his disciples to pick up Puyan again. This time, just in case, he sent Wuxiang to follow him.

When brothers Wu Xiang and Wu Sheng arrived in the capital, they happened to meet Yan Ming.

It turns out that Yanming has been looking for Yang Qi's whereabouts since he changed his identity and fled the capital.

But for him alone, trying to find someone in the huge crowd is simply a fool's errand.

Strangely enough, the entire court seemed to have lost sight of Pu Yan's disappearance, and no one went to look for his whereabouts.

Especially Zhu Jingyan, since he came to the throne, he has ignored his son, who he finally found, and has not even mentioned it.

There was a strange tacit understanding between the whole court, and there seemed to be some unspeakable secret.

But Yanming didn't know this. He only knew that his senior brother was missing, so he had to look for him.

At this moment, a piece of news suddenly reached his ears: Puyan was now in Yuzhou City.

Therefore, Yanming planned to set off for Yuzhou, but happened to meet brothers Wuxiang and Wusheng outside the city.
