Chapter 614: The Return of the King(1/2)

The surname of this Kuji layman is Yuchi, a child of the Yuchi family. At the age of seventeen, he became a monk and entered Dacien Temple.

In history, when emperors chose monks, they would choose from some heroes and aristocratic families and let them enter the temple to practice.

Even some concubines may enter the temple to practice.

After Kuiji entered the Dacien Temple, he admired Xuanzang and sought to join Xuanzang's disciple.

Xuanzang accepted many disciples, but the disciples of this era, their Buddhist names were all given by the emperor!

Often, the imperial edict ordered many people to go to the temple to practice, and the official gave them the Buddha's name. Therefore... it was not like that of later generations. Every generation of disciples had a ranking, such as Wukong, Wujing, and Wuneng.

This is the guest who is currently inviting guests, and the guests who are coming today are very unusual.

It turned out that King Li Ke of Wu and King Li Yan of Shu arrived.

The two brothers often come to this Dacien Temple. Every time such princes and nobles come, children from aristocratic families like Kuiji come in handy.

In fact, people like Kuiji were influenced by the aristocratic race, and the emperor personally issued an order to practice, and also had the intention of letting his trusted children master the temple.

These people are different from ordinary monks. They often have high knowledge and have seen the world. When other monks hear the princes coming, they are already trembling or don’t know how to deal with it. However, Kuji can always deal with it and chat and laugh with others.

Li Ke and Li Yan were obviously in a good mood. The prince was obviously very angry about the donation this time. Now the people on the street are praising the two brothers. When they talked about the prince, they couldn't help laughing.

The prince did not even have this majesty left, and he could only add a laughing stock, which made Li Ke feel speechless, but also felt a little expectation in his heart.

What they said was that they were laughing at the crown prince of this dynasty. If such a crown prince ascends the throne in the future, will the Tang Dynasty live as short as the Sui Dynasty?

What I am looking forward to is... maybe... After this blow, my father will have other considerations!

The two of them talked with Kuiji with great enthusiasm. They asked Kuiji for some knowledge in Buddhism, and Kuiji was able to deal with it freely.

As he was speaking, the little novice monk hurried in and said, "Master, Master."

The little novice monk seemed panicked and stumbling in.

In the Mingtang, Kuiji's face was a little surprised. Obviously, he realized that Xiao Sha Mi was rude, but at this time, he was still calm.

He smiled and said, "Just just now, the skin on a person is nothing but an old thing, just like a house. After a long time, it will naturally take years to be disrepaired. However, the skin is different, and the skin cannot be repaired. Therefore, we just want to promote Buddhism so that the people of the world do not have to care about the new and old of the house. What is important is...whether the person living in this house cares about this house? Isn't this the so-called selflessness? No self does not mean that there is no self, but that it does not care about this body of skin."

Li Ke and Li Yan couldn't help but admire Kuiji's calmness.

Li Ke said: "I've been taught."

But when the little novice monk saw that the master ignored him, he continued panting: "Master, there is someone outside..."

Kuiji turned a deaf ear, pronounced the Buddha's name, and continued, "But... people have lived in the house for a long time, and they will inevitably develop feelings over time. Not to mention a skin, even a house, how can people say they will give up? Therefore, people in the world always have many regrets, and regrets are the root of troubles? Because of this, the Buddha said: Purity. The word purity is the most rare. You need to remove the six senses, close your eyes, stuff your mouth, and cover your ears. People have the six consciousnesses, and it is so difficult to reach the point where the six senses are pure."

"My teacher Xuanzang made great aspirations because there were no true scriptures in the process of promoting Buddhism. He had to obtain the true scriptures. Isn't this the six senses not pure? Even my teacher is like this, let alone waiting."

Li Ke and Li Yan listened and continued to nod, with more and more admiration on their faces. Li Ke sighed: "Master Xuanzang is like a beacon. Although he died, I am still alive when I am here. This is a person with great cultivation and I can't wait. It's just a pity that they met too late and could not meet him."

The little novice monk on the side was sweating profusely. When they continued to talk to Xuanzang, they gritted their teeth and raised their voices: "There is a person outside who calls himself Master Xuanzang and asks the master to go and meet him."

Xuanzang...

Li Ke and Li Yan looked at each other.

Just now, what did you say about Xuanzang? Why did you say that Cao Cao will arrive?

Li Yan couldn't help but mutter: "How is that possible? Could it be that he was a hell?"

Li Ke glared at him, and Li Yan stopped talking.

After hearing this, Kuiji couldn't help but smile and said, "But I don't know which donor did a prank, and it's inappropriate to joke with my master."

But Kuiji was not angry. As a Buddhist, there are still some measures.

Kuiji bowed to the two kings and said, "Please wait for the two donors, so I will go and take a look."

"Let's wait." At this time, Li Ke stood up and said, "I will go and have a look."

Kuiji was a little embarrassed, but he nodded.

So, Guiji was in front, Li Ke and Li Yan were in back, and walked all the way toward the mountain gate.

Walking behind, Li Yan couldn't help but quietly say to Li Ke: "Brother, why did Xuanzang come back from the dead?"

This tone sounded like I didn't want Xuanzang to be alive.

"Nonsense!" Li Ke whispered: "If you don't say this, don't let people listen."

Not long after, Kuiji and others arrived in front of the mountain gate.

Li Ke couldn't help but shake his head when he saw a monk with short hair on his head from afar!

In his opinion, most of them were to cheat. He was about to step forward, pretending to be a prince, and scolding the wild monk fiercely.

But he didn't expect that Kuiji's body was shocked, he opened his eyes wide, looked at Xuanzang hard, and then his eyes turned red.

Then, Kuiji stepped forward quickly, fell to the ground, and choked and said, "My teacher is here, please accept a prayer from your disciple."

The two brothers Li Ke and Li Yan were all their eyes straightened.

Xuanzang...really resurrected from the dead!

Xuanzang said calmly: "No need to do this, no need to do this."

Even if you are a monk, you still have human feelings. The so-called purity of the six senses is just to cover your eyes and ears! But... the eyes covered will always have gaps, and you can always see light. A calm heart will eventually have worldly bonds.

Kuiji was so excited that he cried and said, "My teacher is not at Dashi... Dashi..."

"Is this a falsehood?" King Li Ke of Wu immediately stepped forward and frowned.

Xuanzang looked at Li Ke in confusion and said, "Dare you ask who this is?"

"Oh." Li Ke hurriedly said: "I am surnamed Li and named Ke."

Xuanzang still looked calm and saluted to him, "I am indeed in danger at Dashi."

"Did that great cannibal bring you back after that? This is luck..." Li Ke was speechless for a moment. He had been praying for so long in Chang'an City, but who expected that the person would really come back, what's the matter?

However... at this time Li Ke still expressed his demeanor of being a virtuous man. No matter what, Xuanzang is also a person who is highly regarded.

Xuanzang said truthfully: "It was not released by that big cannibal."

"Huh?" Li Ke was confused and said with confusion: "Why is that?"

Xuanzang said, "Someone rescued me."

Li Ke and Li Yan both took a breath, and Li Ke said, "The person who saved the wizard must be an amazing person. I didn't expect that there would be people who could make sense in the big food."

Xuanzang shook his head: "No, they are from the Tang Dynasty."

Li Ke became even more confused. The people of the Tang Dynasty... went to Dashi... This obviously doesn't make sense!

So he asked, "But I don't know which hero he is. I must ask for credit for him."

Xuanzang said: "The surname is Chen, and his name is Chen Zhenglei."

Li Ke was stunned at first, then thought of something, and immediately said in shock: "People from the Chen family?"

"That's right." Xuanzang said: "Thanks to them, dozens of people broke into the Dashi Palace that day, holding the Dashi King and many Dashi nobles hostages, and then... ordered the Dashi King to replace the monk. Otherwise, I would never be able to return to Chang'an at this time."

Li Ke felt that his legs were a little weak.

this……

How is that possible?

Just a few dozen people ran to Dashi? They even held the king of Dashi hostage...

This big food is not a small country, and even the Persians fear them. They claim to be armed with hundreds of thousands of armors, and they look like they are overlords.

Li Yan sneered, "How is this possible...it's simply a joke."

Obviously, such a thing is incredible.

Xuanzang said expressionlessly: "Amitabha, monks... don't lie."

These words made Li Ke and Li Yan completely speechless.

But Kuiji was already ecstatic and didn't care about this. For him, it would be better for his master to be alive! So he said, "It would be better for his master to return to Chang'an safely."

His scream alarmed many monks and novice monks.

When the pilgrims heard the word Xuanzang, they looked at the mountain gate one after another.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd said, "Monkey Xuanzang has returned to Chang'an."

For a moment, people were in full swing, and many people were in an uproar, and the crowds surged up.

Many monks came out in the temple, but when they saw that it was Xuanzang, they were at a loss.

The golden body has been reshaped and the money has been donated, but as a result... the person is back...

If you don’t know, you think Dacien Temple is cheating people of money.

At this time, many people greeted each other.

This news spread like a winged one.

The newspaper compiled it and ran away panting.

At this time... no one paid attention to King Wu Li Ke and King Shu Li Yan. The two brothers seemed to have become outsiders all of a sudden.
To be continued...
