"My son doesn't believe in Buddhism, so why call yourself a believer?" Xuanzang had vaguely guessed Li Yin's identity, but he didn't show any strangeness, instead he directly pointed out that Li Yin's words just now were lying.After saying this, he turned his head to Liu Rengui next to him: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Governor Liu still has the same demeanor."

But Liu Rengui said respectfully: "Master, you are welcome!" Then he went back behind Li Yin and stopped talking.

Li Yin knew that Xuanzang would recognize Liu Rengui, so he was not surprised, but he was a little surprised by the previous few words, "Oh? How did Master Xuanzang know that Yang didn't believe in Buddhism? Could it be that the Buddha told the master ?"

"When believers come to the Buddha Tooth Relic, they are naturally devout. How can they be like the young master? They all look like they are playing around, and they don't show any respect to the Buddha Tooth Relic." Xuanzang said with a smile .

But Li Yin was taken aback when he heard this, and then burst into a hearty laugh. He just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect that Master Xuanzang's observation skills were so keen that he could even spot such small details. And he also exposed him face to face, which is far from the image of the bad guy in Journey to the West in later generations.Capital Datang 581

After Li Yin laughed, Xuanzang continued, "Although the young master is not a believer, meeting the poor monk at the Buddha's Tooth Abode shows that he is destined for the Buddha. If you don't mind, you can go Go sit in the meditation room of the poor monk."

"Since the master invited me, Yang would be more respectful than obedient, but I don't believe in anything related to the Buddha, otherwise I would be scolded by my ancestors!" Li Yin said half-jokingly.

Xuanzang was taken aback when he heard the last sentence, and then he realized it.At the same time, the guess about Li Yin's identity became more certain in his heart. The Li family claimed to be the descendant of Lao Tzu.I believe in Taoism, so naturally I am not interested in Buddhism.It seems that I also made a mistake just now.

However, Xuanzang's Buddhism is profound, and he didn't care about these details, so he quickly returned to normal, and then invited Li Yin to his meditation room for a talk, Li Yin naturally would not refuse, and followed him out of the Buddha Tooth Abode. After turning a corner, we came to a medium-sized temple, and after entering through a corner gate, we finally came to a small independent courtyard.A huge linden tree covers the entire courtyard from the sky, and a simple meditation room stands under the linden tree.

Li Yin followed Xuanzang into the meditation room, and found that the layout of the meditation room was really simple, except for a low table and a few futons, there was nothing else.But when Li Yin, Xuanzang and others were seated, a young novice soon brought a pot of tea and several teacups.

Only then did Xuanzang smile and said, "This is a fine hair tip that a believer gave to the poor monk a few days ago. It can just be used to entertain distinguished guests. Please taste it, Your Highness and the Governor-General!"

Li Yin was not at all surprised that Xuanzang revealed his true identity.After all, Liu Rengui could accompany him in person, and he was named Yang Liu. Yang was Li Yin's mother's surname, and he was the sixth.Therefore, as long as there is a caring person, I am afraid that Li Yin's true identity can be analyzed from it.

"Good tea, the soup "color" is orange-yellow and bright. The aroma of pine smoke is strong and fragrant. This should be the "Maojian" produced in Weishan." Liu Rengui picked up the teacup.Smell its fragrance first, and then observe its color.Then after tasting it, he opened his mouth and said.

Although Li Yin invented fried tea, he is not very proficient in tea tasting. He can only tell whether the tea is good or bad, but he can't judge which kind of tea, so he has no interface on this topic.

"Master Xuanzang has lived in Tianzhu for many years, so he must be very familiar with the situation in various parts of Tianzhu?" Li Yin asked with a smile after taking a sip of tea.

When Xuanzang heard Li Yin's question, he shook his head and said: "I'm afraid this will disappoint His Highness. Although the poor monk has been to various places in Tianzhu these years, he has been devoted to seeking Buddha and has not paid much attention to other matters at all. I only know a little bit about the situation in various countries."

Li Yin was not surprised after hearing this, and then asked: "Master's concentration on Buddhism is indeed admirable, but I don't know when the master will return to China. If necessary, this king can send a fleet to escort the master back."

Xuanzang pondered for a while and replied: "Thank you for your kindness, the poor monk planned to return to Tang Dynasty two years ago, but now Ceylon Island belongs to His Highness's territory, which is no different from that of Tang Dynasty. In addition, here is another pure land of my Buddha, so the poor monk plans to stay here for two more years, translate some Buddhist scriptures, and then ship them to China for printing and distribution!"

"This is a good idea. Buddhism is prosperous here in the Buddha City, and the atmosphere is much stronger than that of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, if the master has any needs, he can also ask Rengui. As long as this king can do it, he will definitely not Decline!" Li Yin said boldly, but he didn't have any good ideas in mind.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Xuanzang was very calm. Having reached his level of cultivation in Buddhism, he has already taken foreign things very lightly. Because of this, he didn't feel too much when facing Li Yin. nervous.

But Xuanzang hesitated for a while after finishing speaking, and then said: "Your Highness, King Jiang and His Royal Highness King Yue have landed on the Tianzhu Continent, and they are also launching wars against the countries in the south of Tianzhu. I interrupted, but as the saying goes, God has the virtue of good life, I wonder if His Highness can advise the two His Highnesses to let them stop fighting early, so as to save the world from suffering?"

Li Yin almost laughed out loud when he heard Xuanzang's words, because he finally saw the good side of the other party, but this matter was not discussed, and he did not intend to let Li Yun and Li Zhen stop fighting, so he saw He opened the mouth and said: "Master, I'm afraid you don't understand the purpose of the seventh and eighth brothers' trip. You must also know the situation in South Tianzhu. There have been wars there for many years, and countless people have been displaced because of the war, even those who survived." , lived a precarious life.”

Li Yin paused at this point, and then went on to say: "So after the seventh and eighth brothers knew about this situation, they made a great wish to unify Tianzhu and end the local chaos that was even worse than the Warring States Period." The situation can be said to be a good deed to relieve the people, so it cannot be said that they want to invade Tianzhu, but that they came with peace and civilization, and specially rescued the people living in dire straits in Tianzhu!"

After listening to Li Yin's call, Xuanzang was stunned. He probably never imagined that people can be so shameless. He is no longer a three-year-old child. If he believed Li Yin's nonsense, he would be called hell. Woolen cloth.Capital Datang 581

However, although Xuanzang knew that Li Min was talking nonsense, he had nothing to do. After all, he was just a monk, and it was a taboo to interfere with such important military and political affairs. It may cause the dissatisfaction of His Royal Highness Qi Wang.

Considering the above, Xuanzang sighed, and did not persuade any more, but said with a compassionate heart: "It turns out that the two Highnesses have some ambitions, but the poor monk is a little short-sighted, but the same sentence According to the words of the sage, God has the virtue of loving life, I hope that the two Highnesses will show more kindness in the process of unifying Tianzhu, and try to avoid killing as much as possible!"

"It's natural, my two brothers are not bloodthirsty people, and they came here for peace, so as long as the people of Tianzhu live under their rule, they will definitely not suffer from the flames of war again!" Li Yinyi Deputy Dayi said with a dignified attitude.

However, Liu Rengui, who was next to him, smiled wryly after hearing this. Speaking of which, Jiang Wang and Li Yun are more benevolent, but that Yue Wang Li Zhen is a natural general, and he is naturally easy to kill. During the conflicts with neighboring countries some time ago, Many enemy troops surrendered, but they were still slaughtered by him. This is somewhat similar to some generals of the Tang Dynasty. He really deserves to be a high-achieving student who graduated from the Chang'an Military Academy.

Although Xuanzang knew that Li Yin's words were not to be trusted, he had no choice but to do so, after all, this matter was beyond his ability.And Li Yin also felt that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so he asked the other party some of his experiences from the Tang Dynasty to Tianzhu, as well as some customs and customs in various places in Tianzhu.

Regarding Li Yin's questions, Xuanzang naturally opened his mouth, and Li Yin listened with great interest. Although some things he learned from the other party were not as weird as Journey to the West, they were better than a truth, especially Or speaking from the mouth of the person involved, it makes people feel more immersive.

Li Yin talked with Xuanzang all afternoon, during which he had a fast meal with the other party. He didn't get up to leave until the sun was setting, and when he said goodbye at the end, Li Yin also told Xuanzang not to patronize the translator. Buddhist scriptures, we must take some time to write down his experience of traveling from Tang Dynasty to Tianzhu, and the more detailed the better.After all, few people in later generations know what scriptures Tang Xuanzang brought back from Tianzhu, but they all know that he wrote a book "Da Tang Western Regions", which later evolved into "Journey to the West", which has influenced countless people. .

When you first come to Buddha City, you may still feel very fresh, but after staying for a long time, you will feel a kind of boring, because here is not only a temple, but also a temple, and the food is mainly vegetarian, especially the curry rice. The prototype of the dish is to use various spices and food to "randomly" cook it all at once, and it tastes mixed with various aromas, and it feels particularly weird, which makes Li Yin, who has a mouthful, not used to it.

Of course, the Buddha City is not useless. There are also many attractive highlights here, such as the new Buddha City that is still under construction. Compared with the old city, this port city is much more open and lively. In addition, there is a very Attractive place, Li Yin had heard its name before coming here, and now he has finally come here.
