The World of Reincarnation Starts from the Apprenticeship of the Ninth Uncle

With such careful training, Dong Machi is not only proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, the method of observation, but also proficient in human relationships and worldly judgments, making him a qualified judge and detective.

A few months later, a monk came to the gate of the government office.

This monk came to visit Su Ze, and he said a word: "Can the benefactor return the Buddhist scriptures to me?"

"How long is it?" Su Ze said with a smile, "The thirteenth year of Zhenguan, hasn't it passed yet?"

"The benefactor, why are you joking, the thirteenth year of Zhenguan will be over if the Buddhist scriptures don't leave home again!" the monk said in a deep voice.

"That's fine, whatever, you can do it yourself." Su Ze smiled, "I won't take care of it."

Then the monk showed his true face and smiled: "Namo Amitabha, the old monk would like to thank the benefactor for giving me this face."

After speaking, go to the backyard.

On the second day, Dong Machi's eyes were red, and he said to Su Ze: "Master, my father suddenly became seriously ill, and my mother met an eminent monk, who cured my father's illness."

"But the disease has not gone to the root. I have to become a monk and pray for my father to keep my father safe."

"It's absurd to say this, but my mother firmly believes that I am also willing to be filial to my father. I also hope that the master will allow me to become a monk."

Su Ze smiled slightly and said, "This day is still here."

Is this day still here?

When Dong Machi heard this, his heart sank. With his current wisdom and detective thinking, he immediately understood that there must be a reason behind his becoming a monk!

what is the problem?

Su Ze didn't explain, but said, "You go, your mother is right. It is indeed a good thing for your parents that you became a monk."

Since Dong Machi was suspicious, when he heard this, he became suspicious again.

Why is it "this day" that I became a monk long ago?

Why is it good for my parents if I become a monk?

Thinking of how quickly his father's illness came and went, he secretly had a guess in his heart.

If he refuses to become a monk, will his parents suffer from this sudden illness again?Doesn't that mean that the eminent monk is the one who controls the disease?

This conjecture is really absurd, and Dong Machi is dubious: This is the mansion of the magistrate of Jiangzhou. The number one scholar Su Ze has been here for more than ten years. If you have surplus food, you can eat some meat every month.

Will such a prefect of Jiangzhou, who is highly popular among the people, be threatened by monks?

For the safety of his parents, and to find out what was going on, Dong Ma Chi followed the eminent monk to become a monk. When he arrived at Jinshan Temple, he abandoned his lay name and took the Buddhist name Xuanzang.

Of course it wasn't Chen Guangrui and Yin Wenjiao's child, Xuanzang whose nickname was Jiang Liu'er.

But it was the same Jin Chanzi who was reincarnated as Xuan Zang.

When he arrived at Jinshan Temple and came into contact with the teachings of Buddhist scriptures, Dong Machi immediately indulged in them, as if he had glimpsed the truth that most suited him.He can recite Buddhist scriptures at a glance, and even draw inferences from one instance. The meaning of the scriptures exceeds that of monks who have studied hard for many years, which caused a sensation in the entire Jinshan Temple.

Even the pilgrims who went up the mountain to worship Buddha heard that a stern and very handsome ten-year-old monk came to Jinshan Temple. His words and deeds were like the reincarnation of the Buddha, and his speech and behavior were even more convincing.

In the twinkling of an eye, another two months have passed. When Xuanzang looked at the Buddhist scriptures and tasted the meaning of the scriptures, he unexpectedly thought of Su Ze's teachings, as well as the world of mortals and all things that he saw with his own eyes, and the living things that move. , Those who cannot move are living beings and so on.

Can't help but let out a long sigh: Although the Buddhist scriptures are good, they can only be indulged in for a while, and they can't solve the many troubles in the world and the world.

After sighing, the eminent monk Faming who led him to Jinshan Temple appeared at the door.

"Xuanzang, why are you sighing?"

Xuanzang replied: "People in the world are ignorant, and we are also ignorant...everything in nature operates in an orderly manner. When we practice Buddhism and recite scriptures, it is neither beneficial nor harmful to the world. Why do we exist?"

Fa Ming laughed and said, "Idiot! All things are born, so we are not all things? Words and deeds are predestined by cause and effect, and we can't break free. This is the reason for cultivating Buddha, cultivating body and mind."

"The world of mortals has something to say, but don't worry about your future if you do good deeds. This is practice. We lead people to be good, so why not practice? Leading people to be good is the best practice. How can it be useless in the world?"

Xuanzang immediately understood and nodded slightly.

But he said in his heart: A monk is also a human being, he can do good deeds and also do bad deeds, such a compromise is ultimately useless and harmless.If it is to lead people to be good and punish the wicked, it may not be a kind of practice.

If I didn't care about the safety of my parents and the master, I would rather go to the Jiangzhou government office to be a catcher or a judge to catch those villains.

Faming said again: "I heard that today's sage is recruiting monks in Chang'an City to ask about karma and reincarnation. If he can answer correctly, our Buddhist school will be famous for a while and teach people to be good. Xuanzang is willing to go?"

"Go now." Xuanzang said in response.

Seeing his promise, Faming was overjoyed, and quickly arranged for the monks to pack up, and led Xuanzang and other monks to Chang'an.

The whole journey lasted for more than one day. When the monks were about to enter the city, Xuanzang suddenly felt a gaze staring at him. When he looked back, he saw Su Ze, the prefect of Jiangzhou, emerging from a carriage. smiley face.

"Little Ma, why did you come to Chang'an City?"

Xuanzang walked out from among the monks and bowed to greet him: "My lord, you have also come to Chang'an, but are you going back to Beijing to report on your duties?"

Su Ze nodded slightly: "Naturally, when he was admitted as the No. [-] scholar, he was released to the prefect of Jiangzhou. In a blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and it is time to return to Beijing to take up his post."

Xuanzang greeted the old lady and his wife well, and asked about his parents. Su Ze told them about their situation, and Xuanzang also told about his own situation.

When Xuanzang returned to the monks, the two groups parted.

The carriage took Su Ze and Yin Wenjiao to the residence of Prime Minister Yin Kaishan. Xuanzang and other monks from Jinshan Temple went to Daxiangguo Temple to wait for the emperor to summon them.

"Benefactor, you shouldn't intervene in such matters, right?"

A voice came from the west and reached Su Ze's ears.
