Early Tang Dynasty Concubine

Chapter 442 Tang Monk Comes
"Chu Rui, do you think Xiao Wu can really become a grand master? You must know that there are only a dozen of my Great Tang Grand Masters. Which one is not a person of high morals, can that crazy girl Xiao Wu do it?" Li Xiuning asked Cheng Churui at night.

"I don't know about this. It depends on which direction this little girl develops. If she is dedicated to studying, she must have a place in the master. But if this little girl finds the person she loves in the future, and is devoted to husband and child, then It must be the blessing of the family. But if this little girl develops in another direction, it will be hard to say."

"Another direction?" Li Xiuning asked a little puzzled, Cheng Churui just smiled and said: "Go to sleep! If my guess is right, the Yu family will definitely not give up. I don't know what that old man will do tomorrow."

The next day, Yu Shinan did not wait for a monk to come, a young monk, and when he heard the monk's name, Cheng Churui screamed like a thunderbolt, and he must have blurted out his name "Xuanzang" when he guessed it!It is the Lord who can live forever if you take a bite.

"Xuanzang, a little monk, meets the benefactor!" Xuanzang was young, handsome, and polite, and he was well-known in Cheng Churui's heart, so Cheng Churui's attitude was much better.

"Master Xuanzang is very polite!" Cheng Churui returned the salute, Xuanzang was also a little puzzled, his master and uncle said that this son-in-law is not a good talker, why he seems to be a good talker.

"The little monk came here this time to send some things to the benefactor entrusted by the master!" He said and took out a brocade box. When Cheng Churui opened it, he saw a lot of land deeds!It seems that this old man has really figured out a lot.

Cheng Churui was not too polite, he looked at them one by one, and then made a plan in his mind, this time the other party would take out at most one-tenth of the land deed, or less, although it seemed like a lot, it was actually not much!
"Thank you, Master, but please go back and tell Master Ling, I will not make it difficult for him, just take out five equal shares! I will help him with his help!" This time Xuanzang really saw The son-in-law's lion opened his mouth wide.

"My little monk will definitely bring it!" Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Xuanzang still said seriously.No wonder there is such perseverance, I have to say, this guy still has a few tricks.At least this kind of determination is rare at his age. Anyway, Cheng Chu now feels that he is about the same age as him, but he is a person who sees fire.

"The master is a guest from afar, and I happen to have some Buddhist teachings I want to ask you, why don't you have a meal with me?"

"Yes!" Xuanzang originally wanted to leave, but when he heard what Cheng Churui said, he also wanted to know more about this son-in-law. He expressed that he didn't really believe that this son-in-law said that he could solve his Buddhist problems. would like to ask.

"Master Xuanzang, I wonder how far you have reached in your Buddhist practice?" Cheng Churui asked curiously.

"The little monk is stupid. Mind, Buddha, and sentient beings are all empty. The true nature of phenomena is empty. There is no enlightenment, no confusion, no sage, no ordinary, no giving, and no receiving."

After listening, Cheng Churui nodded, suddenly picked up the teacup in his hand and poured a cup of water on Xuanzang Jieyi's monk's robe, Xuanzang was also a little overwhelmed by this cup of water, not understanding Cheng Churui's reasoning, But when he saw the stain on the monk's robe, he was angry and was about to stand up and ask Cheng Churui's reason loudly, when he heard Cheng Churui say:

"Since everything is empty, where does the anger come from?"

Xuanzang calmed down instantly after listening to the sound of thunder. Only then did he realize that the smiling Cheng Churui was looking at him. Only then did he realize that this person is very powerful.

"Young monk has been taught!" Xuanzang said as he stood up and clasped his hands together.

"It's nothing. I just want to see the monk's concentration. The monk's robe is already dirty. Let someone change it for you!"

"Everything is fine!~" Xuanzang's eyes became much clearer at this time, Cheng Churui nodded and did not insist.

"One thing I don't understand, my Buddhist school is facing a hundred years of catastrophe. Since the benefactor has the method, why didn't he teach me?" Finally asked, Cheng Churui nodded and said:
"Let me tell you a story. A person went to a temple to pay homage to Guanyin Bodhisattva. After a few kowtows, the person suddenly found that a person next to him was also worshiping, and his appearance was exactly the same as that of Guanyin Bodhisattva on the altar. The person was puzzled and asked softly: "Are you Guanyin Bodhisattva? The man replied: "Yes." The man was even more confused, and asked again: "Then why do you still pay homage?"What do you think the Bodhisattva would say? "

Xuanzang had never heard of this story, thought for a while and said, "I don't know."

"The Bodhisattva told the man: Because I know very well that it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself! That's why I want my reward, and what I do is what I deserve. Although in your eyes I just move my mouth, you monks don't talk about it. Is it cause and effect? ​​Then what about the cause and effect I have to bear?

First of all, I am not a Buddhist. Don’t force your ideas on me. I don’t believe in others but in myself. Daoism was suppressed by your Buddhism at the beginning, and I got my due reward for my idea. This is the cause and effect of Taoist suppression.

Similarly, I also bear the revenge of Daomen against me!This is also cause and effect. Now, do you think it is appropriate for me to ask for a reward? As for how much I want, that is my own business. I did not force you. Bodhisattvas know that asking for others is worse than asking for yourself. , then something has to be paid! "

Although Cheng Churui's words were a bit forgiving, with Xuanzang's intelligence, he still understood the key point.

"What the benefactor said is right! Xuanzang has been taught again, and he never thought that such a small thing would have such a Zen meaning in the benefactor's mouth. You and my Buddhism are destined."

"Stop, Master Xuanzang, what do you think will happen if I really become a monk?" Cheng Churui's question made Xuanzang a little confused, but he still answered honestly: "Of course it is very good. In a few years, my Buddhist sect will have one more wise man."

"Thank you for your compliment first. If I'm not a monk, you can solve the current problem without using magic tricks. Of course it's great. It doesn't matter if you are a wise man or not. You can also introduce a wise man.

But at the same time, have you ever thought that if I really become a monk, your Buddhism will really come to an end. You must know that my wife almost caused the Taoism to be destroyed overnight because of me. How do you think you compare with the Taoism in its heyday? "

Xuanzang was frightened into a cold sweat...

Cheng Churui frightened Xuanzang away, and then Cheng Churui smiled and remained silent.I thought to myself, these land deeds are a bit tricky, and it is the best policy to give them to Li Shimin...
