Big dreamer

"Thanks to the help of all the immortal masters, my son can return to the palace safely. I am here to express my gratitude." Jiao Lianmi took his son's hand and walked closer, took the initiative to perform a chest caressing ceremony and said.

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo and others immediately returned the favor.

Only Madman Zhanguo raised his finger and pointed at the crown on his head when he saw the king's attire, laughing loudly.

When the guards on the side saw this, they all wanted to step forward and take it down, but they were stopped by Jiao Lianmi.

He naturally knew the origin of Zhan Guo a long time ago, so he didn't care about it, and asked instead: "I heard that several immortal masters came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty? I was really negligent before, and I hope you will understand."

"Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this. You have been taken to the post house to rest since you entered the city, and you have been treated very politely during these short stays. There is no disrespect. We are also very grateful." Bai Xiaotian clasped his fists and said.

"I dare to ask the Immortal Master, what kind of monster was it that caused trouble earlier? How did you rescue my son? Has that guy been subdued before? If not, with Zen Master Linda here, he will be subdued." Jiao Lianmi asked. road. .

After saying that, he turned slightly sideways, and Zen Master Linda, who was standing behind him, immediately stepped forward and saluted Shen Luo and others with his palms together.

"It's just an ordinary sand demon. It has been killed. There is no need to trouble Zen Master anymore." Shen Luo returned the courtesy.

"That's very good. This young Zen master looks young, but his appearance is quite good. He seems to have great merits. I wonder which Zen monastery in China he came from?" Linda said slightly. Nodding, his eyes fell on Chan'er and he asked.

"The Zen master is so complimentary. The young monk became a monk at Jinshan Temple. He is just a young novice monk who has only been practicing Zen for a short period of time." Chan'er returned the courtesy.

"Jinshan Temple...could it be the Zen forest temple where Master Xuanzang became a monk?" Zen Master Lin Da's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly said in surprise.

Chan'er didn't answer, just nodded.

"No wonder the little Zen Master is covered with Buddha's light. He turns out to be an eminent monk from Jinshan Temple. Master Xuanzang went through all kinds of hardships and obtained the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures from the Buddhist Kingdom in the West, which has created countless merits and virtues. Now the little Zen Master has inherited the mantle of Zen Master and comes to our place again. In the Western Region, in response to the heavenly sign, the Mahayana Dharma Conference will be held in a few days. I urge the young Zen Master to come to the Dharma altar and lecture and recite the Dharma to hundreds of thousands of monks in the thirty-six countries of the Western Region." Zen Master Linda. Surprised, he bowed deeply again.

Seeing this, Chan'er seemed to be in a dilemma. He glanced at Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian respectively, and seeing that they both looked helpless, he could only say: "The young monk has little talent and little knowledge in Buddhism. He really cannot be a leader in the high altar. "

"When talking about Taoism, there is no distinction between high and low. As long as the young Zen master can come, even if he does not lecture to the monks, it will still be of immeasurable merit." Zen Master Linda said.

"Even so, it would be disrespectful for the young monk to refuse." Seeing that he couldn't shirk it, Chan'er had no choice but to say.

"It's a great honor." Zen Master Linda said again.

"After all, the post house is simple, so several immortal masters moved to the palace so that I can perform my duties as a landlord and repay you for saving my son." Jiao Lianmi said.

"Thank you for your kindness. We are used to living here. Moving to the palace will definitely require a lot of labor and labor. It is really not what we want. I hope your majesty will understand." Shen Luo hesitated for a while and then refused.

"Okay, okay, no crossing, no crossing..."

While everyone was talking, Zhan Guo went crazy again and started shouting randomly.

After Chan'er glanced at him, he turned his head and saluted everyone with his hands clasped together. Then he said goodbye and left. He held Zhan Guo's hand and walked back to his house.

"Little Zen Master, this is..." Zen Master Linda said a little puzzled when he saw this.

"Master Chan'er said that he should save Zhan Guo and help him wake up." Qi Lianmi heard this and said.

"Zhan Guo's body is full of karma. The young Zen master is really the eminent monk of Pudu Cihang. He can actually make a vow to save him. A poor monk can't be better." Hearing this, Zen Master Lin Da frowned and seemed quite surprised. But he soon smiled again.

Afterwards, everyone talked a few more times, and Jiao Lianmi led everyone out of the post house.

Before leaving, Qi Lianmi asked Shen Luo if he could come here to see them again, and Shen Luo nodded in agreement.

After seeing everyone off, Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian came outside Chan'er's house and knocked on the door a few times.

"Please come in." Chan'er's voice sounded from inside the room.

Shen Luo then pushed the door open and went in, and saw two futons on the floor of the room. Chan'er sat cross-legged on the left, and Zhan Guo sat slumped on the right, looking around the room erratically.

"Donor Shen, Donor Bai, I want to use the Pure Heart Mantra to enlighten him. Please help me look after him outside. No matter what happens inside, as long as I don't ask, you are not allowed to come in." Chan'er He looked at the two of them and said solemnly.

Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

"If there is any accident, we must be called in as soon as possible." Shen Luo said worriedly.

"Okay." Chan'er nodded.

After saying that, he stood up and took out an exquisite three-legged incense burner from the table, lit a stick of concentration sandalwood, and sat down again.

Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian exited the room, closed the door, and stood outside.

Soon, a sound of wooden fish tapping was heard in the house.

"Tuk tuk..."

Along with the unhurried sound of wooden fish, Chan'er's voice reciting scriptures also rang out.

Shen Luo and Shen Luo listened to the sound of Sanskrit across the door of the room, and gradually felt calm in their hearts. They subconsciously sat down cross-legged and began to close their eyes and regulate their breathing.

After an unknown amount of time, the surrounding sky had completely darkened, candles had been lit in the room, and little warm rays of light shone out from inside.

Suddenly, there was a "clang" sound in the house!

While meditating, Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian opened their eyes at the same time and stood up from the ground suddenly.

Bai Xiaotian subconsciously wanted to open the door, but Shen Luo raised his hand to stop him.

He approached the door and looked inside through the gap in the door. He saw a copper incense burner lying on the ground, and Zhan Guo, who was originally sitting opposite Chan'er, fell on Chan'er's side.

The facial features on his face were distorted and his expression was crazy. He was punching and kicking Chan'er with a completely ferocious look.

Chan'er closed his eyes tightly, knocked the wooden fish in his hand, and recited sutras in his mouth. He let Zhan Guo get beaten all over his body, and remained motionless, looking as stable as a Buddha statue.

After Zhan Guo beat him for a while, he seemed to feel a little unsatisfied. He turned around, grabbed the incense burner that rolled on the ground, and tried to smash it down on Chan'er's head.

Shen Luo's eyes suddenly shrank, and he was about to stop him immediately, but he saw Chan'er closing his eyes and gently shaking his head in his direction, indicating that he didn't need to worry about it.
