Chapter 215 Westward Journey
Seeing that the old monk was the manifestation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, everyone in the imperial study room was shocked. They immediately rushed out of the hall under the leadership of Li Shimin, bowed down and saluted.

After Guanyin Bodhisattva left, Li Shimin straightened his body, straightened his dragon robe, and asked Xuanzang who was equally excited: "Master, Guanyin Bodhisattva said that there is Mahayana Buddhism in Daleiyin Temple hundreds of thousands of miles away. Take it to save the people of our Tang Dynasty?"

Xuanzang saw Guanyin Bodhisattva coming to the world with his own eyes. He was very excited. Hearing the words, he said together: "Your Majesty is willing to go west, please rest assured. I will definitely get the scriptures back. If you don't get the scriptures, you will not return them to court!"

"it is good!"

Li Shimin said hello, and taking advantage of his emotions, he and Xuanzang became Jinlan brothers, saying: "My ancestral surname is 'Chen', and now I am traveling west, shouldering the destiny of the country, I will give my virtuous brother a surname of 'Tang', I wish you My brother will not forget my heart, and return to court early."

Xuanzang folded his palms together to thank him, and Li Shimin asked again: "Besides the Dharma name 'Xuanzang', does my good brother have any other name?"

Xuanzang replied: "Young monk, I have taken refuge in my Buddha, so I dare not title him."

Li Shimin pondered for a while, and said: "The Bodhisattva said that there are Tripitakas of Mahayana Buddhism in the western heavens. If you don't think so, you can use the name 'Tripitakas'." Xuanzang again received an order to thank him.

On the one hand, Yin Kaishan has seen the matter so far, his grandson Xitian and his party are going to make a decision, thinking that he became a monk at the age of eight, and rarely reunite, and now he is farewell, let alone when he will see him again, and the road ahead is dangerous, life and death are unpredictable, he can't help feeling sad come from.

Li Shimin was about to choose a strong bodyguard for Xuanzang to accompany him. Seeing this, Su Can hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I will go west for a journey of one hundred and eight thousand miles. I don't know when I will return. Master Xuanzang is a monk, and he is dedicated to the Buddha. Then Forget it, how could Your Majesty have the heart to separate those young and old soldiers from their wives and children?"

Many soldiers in front of the hall heard the words and cast grateful glances at Su Can. Li Shimin knew this, but he couldn't let Xuanzang go on the road alone. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Su Can leap onto the roof and then jumped down again , "crash" a big hole was stepped on the floor,
With Su Can's current cultivation, it is no problem to level the Five Sacred Mountains at once. The reason why he stepped on the ground and made so many precursors is just to show that he is not so anti-human.

Su Can pulled his foot out of the floor and said: "Your Majesty, Su is quite powerful, why don't I go west with Master Xuanzang, take care of him, and check out the customs and customs of the countries going to the west for your Majesty, so that in the future All countries are friendly states."

At first Yin Kaishan was quite dissatisfied with Su Can when he heard Su Can's objection to Li Shimin's selection of bodyguards for Xuanzang. Hearing this, he was immediately infinitely grateful.

Su Can's ability was admired by all the people present, not to mention anything else, he was able to avoid countless dangers along the way ahead of time, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than a few guards with only courage?
Li Shimin was also moved in his heart. In recent years, the national power of the Tang Dynasty has been booming, which is fully enough to support the army to fight several big battles. If Su Can goes to collect the climate, terrain and folk customs of various countries, when he comes back, based on his collection, the army It's not impossible to go west.

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more excited he said, "Okay! Mr. Su's righteousness, I admire him very much, so I appointed Mr. Su as the Tang Dynasty envoy to travel with Master Xuanzang to various countries."

Su Can handed over his command, and Li Shimin immediately asked Su Can to create an identity token symbolizing "National Envoy" for Su Can overnight, and prepared all kinds of things for the two of them to go west.

In the early morning of the next day, Su Can and Xuanzang were about to set out on the road, and Li Shimin led a group of civil and military officials to see them off. At the end, Li Shimin brought three cups of vegetarian wine, and he took one cup, and poured them into the cups of Su Can and Xuanzang. Sprinkled a little soil, said: "I hope you two would rather love a piece of soil in your hometown than ten thousand taels of gold in other places."

The two of them agreed and drank all the wine. Then they left Li Shimin and beat Ma Xi.

In Lingshan of West Heaven, just when Li Shimin parted with Su Can and Xuanzang, and the two officially embarked on the road to the west, Guanyin Bodhisattva, who had already returned, said to the Tathagata Buddha sitting on the lotus platform above: "World Honored One, if you really go all the way to visit the immortals, Walking with Jin Chanzi, how can the many disasters on the road be counted as disasters?"

Tathagata Buddha said: "Don't worry, everything is arranged by the number of days."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva doubted: "For the matter of Journey to the West, the way of heaven has long stipulated the candidates for the robbery, so what about the immortal kings who are patrolling..."

Tathagata Buddha shook his head: "The number of days is not fixed, sir, you can count again."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva heard the words and used his supernatural powers. As a result, the number of days has changed. Apart from the one man, one monkey, one pig, one water monster and one white dragon who were originally scheduled to travel west, there was another Su Can. In such a catastrophe, since the person who will enter the catastrophe has been determined, how can he change it at will?"

Tathagata Buddha said: "The way of heaven is fair, but immortals are not."

Guanyin Bodhisattva thought about it: "The World Honored One is talking about the ancestor?"

The Tathagata Buddha kept silent, and Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva immediately woke up, said the Buddha's name, and stopped talking.

At the same time, the Jade Emperor and Taibai Jinxing were also having the same conversation in the heavenly court. After the two of them talked about Hongjun's ancestor, they also tacitly changed the topic. Taibai Jinxing said:

"Your Majesty, since the Immortal Patroller and Jin Chanzi are traveling together, a swarm of monsters such as General Nayin, Lord Xiong Shan, and Special Officer outside the pass will not be able to cause Jin Chanzi any trouble if they want to come. Do I still need to go down to the lower realm?"

The Jade Emperor said: "All catastrophes are determined by the number of days. Even if there are changes, it is difficult to change the number of days. You will go down to earth as usual and wait for the opportunity." Taibai Jinxing took the order and left.

In the mortal world, Su Can and Xuanzang bid farewell to Li Shimin and others, each rode a horse, and traveled all the way. After a while, they encountered a steep mountain, and the road was rough. Walking on a mountain road is like walking on flat ground.

Xuanzang was very envious at the side. After waiting for a while, he didn't see Su Can helping him, so he took the initiative to say: "Mr. Su, why don't you use this technique for the poor monk to get off his horse?"

Su Can shook his head and said: "Master Xuanzang, you and I are very different. You are going to the west to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. You have to go through untold hardships along the way to show your sincerity and impress the Buddha. How can you be lazy and vain? easy?"

"And I am envoys to various countries under His Majesty's order, but I happen to be with you, but I don't need to suffer much."

Xuanzang felt ashamed when he heard the words, closed his eyes, folded his palms together and recited "Amitabha" a few times silently, then opened his eyes and said to Su Can: "Thank you Mr. Su for your guidance, the poor monk knows his mistake."

Su Can nodded: "It's okay, people always grow up, and this journey westward to seek scriptures is a great test for you."

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said reverently: "The poor monk understands, Mr. Su understands the truth, if there is something wrong on the way, Mr. Su, please point it out in time and correct it."

Su Can laughed and agreed.
