"More than a hundred years ago, a wandering monk with advanced spiritual skills settled in this temple. That night, the Buddhist temple suddenly showed a golden light that reached the sky and lasted until midnight. The monk and the old monk in the temple said that Jinshan Temple has Buddhist connections, and something will definitely happen in the future. He is an eminent monk with an astonishing reputation, so he decided to stay here. The old monks in the temple naturally welcomed him, and the monk stayed in the temple and became a senior member of Jinshan Temple, changing his name to Faming." Zen Master Hai Shi continued.

"Elder Faming!" Shen Luo's eyes moved. Lu Huaming had told him about this person before. It turned out that this person had such an origin.

"The Patriarch Faming has a high level of cultivation. After entering the temple, the original old abbot quickly gave up the position of abbot to him. After Elder Faming came to power, he vigorously supported his fellow disciples and spread the Buddhism he practiced to everyone. This temple has The founder of the temple had great virtues in reinvention, and everyone in the temple respected him. However, he did not accept disciples, saying that he was not destined to be a disciple, which disappointed many people in the temple. Until more than ten years after the founder entered the temple, there was a disciple. One day, he was playing the piano at the foot of the mountain, and suddenly he heard a baby crying. A wooden basin floated from the river at the foot of the mountain. There was a baby and a blood book in it. The ancestor rescued him and found out its origin after seeing the blood book. , turned out to be the posthumous son of Chen Guangrui, the number one scholar in Liuzhou, so he took his nickname Jiang Liuer, raised him and made him his disciple," said Zen Master Hai Shi.

"This person must be Master Xuanzang." Lu Huaming said after listening for a long time, his expression gradually became more focused and he no longer felt anxious.

Shen Luo suddenly realized that Master Xuanzang's name had been spread all over the world, but he only knew about Master Xuanzang's acquisition of the Western Scriptures, but his origins were unknown. It turned out that he was born like this.

"Yes, as Elder Faming said in his early years, Master Xuanzang later entered Chang'an and was named the imperial disciple by Emperor Taizong. After that, he went to the West without fear of hardships and went through seventy-two difficulties to retrieve the true scripture. This is the name of Jinshan Temple. It was only through spreading it throughout the world that he gained his current reputation." Zen Master Hai Shi glanced at Lu Huaming, nodded, and then continued.

"Zen Master Hai Shi, I would like to interrupt you. Based on the time when Master Xuanzang went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, you should have met Zen Master Hai Shi, right?" Shen Luo suddenly interrupted and asked.

"When I entered the temple, Master Xuanzang had already gone to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. However, when he returned to Jinshan Temple later, I met him once. Master Xuanzang once told the monks in the temple some stories about going west to Lingshan. Experience, the story of seeking scriptures from the West is spread from Jinshan Temple." Zen Master Hai Shi glanced at Shen Luo and nodded.

"Did Master Xuanzang ever mention a woman with a plum blossom mark on her wrist and a monk from the Western Regions when he recounted his experience of seeking scriptures?" Shen Luo immediately asked again.

"A woman with a plum blossom mark on her wrist? Master Xuanzang is a Buddhist and rarely mentions women on the road to the West. As for the many Buddhist countries in the Western Regions, Master Xuanzang mentioned some monks he met on the road. I don't know which one the donor is talking about. A monk?" Zen Master Hai Shi asked with a look of surprise on his face.

Lu Huaming was also surprised that Shen Luo suddenly asked about this matter and looked at Shen Luo.

"This person should be carrying demonic energy and caused a lot of trouble for Master Xuanzang when he went west to obtain scriptures." Shen Luo hesitated and said.

"A monk infected with demonic energy? I have never heard Master Xuanzang talk about this." Zen Master Hai Shi thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Really..." Shen Luo looked disappointed, secretly wondering whether Master Xuanzang and his party had not encountered those five reincarnated demon souls when they were studying for Buddhist scriptures?

"Oh, when the donor mentioned demonic energy, I remembered something. Master Xuanzang said that when they passed through the Wuji Kingdom in the Western Regions, his great disciple once felt a very strong demonic energy." Zen Master Hai Shi is gray. His eyebrows suddenly moved and he said.

"Oh, where did Master Xuanzang encounter this demonic energy? What happened next?" Shen Luo's eyes lit up and he immediately asked.

"Master Xuanzang did not elaborate on this matter, only mentioned it briefly, because he encountered countless monsters on the way to the west, but he rarely felt the evil energy. The powerful evil energy made him feel a little uneasy, and asked I have to be careful about demons in the future," said Zen Master Hai Shi.

Shen Luo groaned, his eyes flashed, and he said no more.

"Elder Hai Shi, I also have something to ask. Master Xuanzang mysteriously disappeared shortly after returning from Buddhist scriptures. Do you know what happened? People say he has been reincarnated. Is this true?" Lu Huaming on the side also asked.

"We don't know the reason for this matter. Master Xuanzang returned from studying scriptures, handed over errands to His Majesty, and then returned to Jinshan Temple to practice meditation. But not long after, he suddenly disappeared. The monks in the temple searched for him in many ways, but there was no clue." Zen Master Hai Shi He shook his head.

"In that case, why is it said that he has been reincarnated?" Lu Huaming asked strangely.

"Shortly after Master Xuanzang disappeared, the old monk took over the position of presiding. The old monk practiced Zen Zen, which emphasized purity of mind and few desires. He often went to various inaccessible places to sit and practice. Once he meditated at the foot of the mountain and by the river. At that time, a wooden basin floated down the river, and there were two swaddling babies on it," Zen Master Hai Shi continued.

"Oh, two more babies came here?" Lu Huaming looked surprised.

"These two people are Jiang Liu and Chan'er. At that time, Jiang Liu had a string of Buddhist beads hanging around his neck. I listened to Master Xuanzang's teachings in person and recognized that the string of Buddhist beads was exactly what Master Xuanzang was wearing. Everyone in the temple Everyone thought he was the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, and gave him the common name of Jin Chanzi's previous life, Jiangliu," Zen Master Hai Shi continued.

"So that's it. This is where the idea of ​​Jin Chan's reincarnation comes from." Lu Huaming nodded slowly.

Shen Luo ignored the others. When he heard that Zen Master Hai Shi finally mentioned Jiang Liu, his eyes suddenly froze.

"What happened next?" he asked.

"When Jiang Liu got a little older, he understood Buddhism wonderfully, and his tongue bloomed like a lotus flower at Dharma meetings, but he never participated in the sutra debates in the temple. Although he was very familiar with Jin Chanzi's affairs, his behavior was not at all like Master Jin Chanzi. He is domineering and prefers luxury. Most of the splendid buildings in the temple were renovated under his command," Zen Master Hai Shi sighed.

"Zen Master Haishi, you are the abbot of Jinshan Temple. Why do you let the river run wild? Jinshan Temple is now like this. It will definitely attract a lot of criticism. Moreover, I have observed that many monks in the temple are frivolous, arrogant, and seem to be imitating that. Like a river, it will be very detrimental to Jinshan Temple in the long run," Lu Huaming said.

"Jiang Liu's Taoism is profound and his temperament is high-spirited. Coupled with his identity as the reincarnation of Jin Chan, most of the elders in the temple highly respect him and obey his words. Although I am the host, I can no longer restrain him." said Zen Master Hai Shi. .

Lu Huaming was speechless after hearing this.

"Chan Master Hai Shi, is the reason why Master Jiang Liu doesn't want to go to Chang'an related to his temperament?" Shen Luo couldn't help but ask after listening to what Zen Master Hai Shi said until now. He never mentioned the reason why Master Jiang Liu refused to go to Chang'an. .

Lu Huaming was distracted by what Zen Master Hai Shi said. After hearing Shen Luo's words, he suddenly recalled the purpose of the two coming tonight, and immediately looked at Zen Master Hai Shi.
