Reborn Jinshan Temple

Chapter 1 Elder Faming

Jinshan Temple has a lot of fame in history, from the water flooding Jinshan in the legend of White Snake, to Liang Hongyu's drum-beating battle on Jinshan in history, which one is not popular, but now, Li Yi looks at the temple at the end of the stone steps, but his heart is bitter At the extreme - I actually became a monk in the Jinshan Temple in the Tang Dynasty!
He didn't study much, and always thought that Jinshan Temple was only in the Song Dynasty, so when he learned from the brothers in the temple that it was in the Tang Dynasty, he went to the town down the mountain to confirm it himself.

The result is that this is not only the legendary Tang Dynasty, but also the Tang Dynasty during the Zhenguan period.

Return to vulgarity, must return to vulgarity.

This is the only thought in his mind now.After finally returning to the prosperous Tang Dynasty, who would think about being a monk Laoshizi.

Although, this monk seems to know some legendary martial arts, the kind that can fly over walls.

However, Li Yi twitched his mouth when he remembered that his original master was actually practicing Tongzi Gong, and walked quickly along the stone steps.

……

The layout of Jinshan Temple is close to the mountain, with rugged mountain roads.

However, Li Yi's 20-year-old boy kung fu was not practiced in vain. He almost moved to the front of the temple with a movement of his body.

The two monks guarding the gate clasped their palms together, and said, "I have seen Senior Brother Xuan Yi."

Li Yi's body is a monk of the Xuan generation in Jinshan Temple. Because he is the oldest among his peers, he was given the title "Xuan Yi".

Thinking of the Xuan 29 who had always had a good relationship with him in his memory, Li Yi felt that the name "Xuan Yi" was actually not bad.

With a casual "um", Li Yi, who had decided to return to vulgarity, suddenly stopped and asked one of the monks: "Where is my master?"

As a big brother of the Xuanzi generation, Master Xuanyi worked very hard on weekdays, perhaps a little too much. When he broke through the seventh level of the boy's skill, he became obsessed, which gave Li Yi an opportunity to come. to this world.

Perhaps it is for this reason that what Li Yi got from Xuan Yi was only some scattered memories.

For example, what is his master's name, where does he live...he doesn't know.

But the two gatekeeper disciples didn't think much about it.

"Brother, Elder Fa Ming is shaving Jiang Liu'er in the Guanyin Pavilion." The monk being questioned said, pointing to an attic in the temple.

Li Yi thanked him, turned around and walked towards the Guanyin Pavilion.

After walking a few steps, he finally came back to his senses.

"Elder Fa Ming...Jiang Liu'er..."

The names of these two people are very familiar, and when they are connected together, it makes people feel familiar.

A flash of light flashed in his mind, Li Yi finally found a vague figure from the broken thoughts left by Xuan Yi, and muttered to himself: "Jiang Liuer, it can't be such a coincidence..."

……

Although Elder Faming is not the abbot of Jinshan Temple, he is the most respected monk in the temple. There are rumors in the world that this old monk has cultivated the truth and enlightened the Tao, and has obtained the secret of lifelessness.

As for that Jiang Liu'er, it was an abandoned baby rescued by Elder Fa Ming from the riverside 18 years ago. Because it flowed through the place along the river, he got a baby name, Jiang Liu'er.

And today, Jiang Liu'er was formally ordained and prepared to become a monk in Jinshan Temple.

When Li Yi arrived at Guanyin Pavilion, the shaving had officially started.

The monks are lined up on both sides, and the Buddha's voice is chanting, everything seems to be in a dream.

On the high platform, Elder Fa Ming personally held the knife, and while shaving off the long hair on Jiang Liuer's head, he muttered something in his mouth: the first knife, cut off all evil; the second knife, wish to cultivate all good; the third knife, Vow to save all beings...

Jiang Liu'er closed her eyes and said nothing, just let her hair fall down, and as her hair became less and less, it seemed that a faint radiance rose from her whole body.

Li Yi rubbed his eyes vigorously, and found that the brilliance on Jiang Liu'er's body not only did not decrease, but also gradually increased.

He subconsciously glanced at the monks on both sides who were reciting Buddhist scriptures, but all he saw were pious expressions.

"Could it be that my eyes are dazzled..." After muttering silently, Li Yi couldn't help but look at his cheap master again, and a more brilliant mysterious light was appearing from time to time between the monk's brows.

Fa Ming, who was shaving Jiang Liu'er, seemed to have noticed someone else's peeping. He looked up at Li Yi, and when he found out that it was him, he smiled at him.

Li Yi only felt that his whole body was like a spring breeze. Listening to the Buddhist voice singing in the temple, he actually gave birth to the idea that everything is empty, seeing through the world of mortals, and always being with the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng.

Almost at the same time, a quaint bell sounded in Li Yi's mind, driving all this away.

Li Yi came back to his senses, and before he had time to check the source of the bell in his mind, he heard that Elder Faming on the stage had completed the entire shaving process, looked at Jiang Liuer kneeling at his feet with a kind face, and said with a smile : "Jiang Liu'er, you are a real monk from now on, I hope you can practice Buddhism diligently in the future and cherish all beings..."

"Disciple would like to follow Master's instruction," Jiang Liu'er kowtowed in thanks, and then looked at Fa Ming expectantly, "Master, I have become a monk now, so I should have my own Dharma name..."

A few young disciples nearby couldn't help laughing, Jiang Liu'er scratched his head habitually, touched the smooth scalp, and put his hand down in embarrassment.

Jiang Liu'er grew up in Jinshan Temple, and the monks in the temple took good care of him, but sometimes he would go to the town below the mountain, meet children of the same age, and when he mentioned his name, he would always get ridiculed by others, so, Ever since he was sensible, he has always wanted to have a dharma name of his own, even though, judging from the previous examples, this Elder Faming's ability to obtain dharma names is really not very good.

Faming looked at Jiang Liuer in front of him with some amusement, "I will give you the Dharma name Xuanzang."

After hearing this, Li Yi said in his heart, "I didn't expect to come to the Tang Dynasty in Journey to the West, but I don't know what the bell that rang in my mind just now is. Could it be the golden finger that the traveler must have... ..."

He wanted to think about it, but to find the source of the bell, it was at a loss for him at the moment.

Shaking his head, the monks in the hall have already started to leave one after another.

Li Yi walked to Faming unknowingly while greeting these brothers and sisters.

"Xuan Yi, did you come to see me as a teacher for something?" Master Fa Ming said with a kind face.

However, having had previous experience, Li Yi was full of vigilance for this cheap master in front of him. After he bowed his palms and saluted, he glanced at Xuanzang who was still immersed in the joy of getting the title, and said respectfully: " Disciple heard that today is the day when Xuanzang's younger brother Moding received his precepts, so he came here specially to have a look."

Xuanzang raised his head when he heard the words, and said to Li Yi gratefully: "Thank you, big brother, for your concern."

Elder Faming was naturally relieved when he saw the harmony among his disciples, but Li Yi, who had always been wary of him, noticed the disappointment in the old monk's eyes.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old monk said, "Haste makes waste, don't force yourself too much about the exercises..."
