Looking south to Buzhou, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the main hall of the imperial palace.
At this moment, Tang Sanzong felt dizzy.
After regaining consciousness again, I took a closer look and saw that the surrounding environment was not the dining table exuding a rich aroma, but a simple but magnificent hall.
Aren’t you eating hot pot and drinking wine? Is this...drunk? Dreaming while asleep?
But after a slight adjustment, I felt something was wrong. How could a dream be so clear?
I felt clearly that there was a mosquito bite on my buttocks, which caused obvious pain and itching.
On both sides of the hall, two groups of civil and military personnel stood on the left and right, all wearing red robes and black hats, all with purple ribbons and gold medals.
On the red carpet in the middle, there is a majestic middle-aged man, wearing a soaring crown, an orange robe, a Lantian jasper belt around his waist, and golden shoes.
It was none other than Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty Li, the Son of Heaven.
Li Shimin looked at the two leprosy monks opposite him, an old man and a young man, in confusion, and said:
"Five thousand taels of cassock? Two thousand taels of nine-ringed staff? Do you think only those with great virtue are worthy of it? I'm afraid Master Xuanzang is the only one worthy of it!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden burst of applause in the hall.
"Pa~~"
Everyone looked for the sound, and the one who made the sound was none other than Tang Sanfu, who was still confused after traveling through time, that is, the mage Xuanzang!
At this moment, the virtuous Tang San was scratching his mosquito-bitten buttocks, wiping off the bloody mosquitoes on his monk's clothes, and then smiled at everyone.
Everyone was also confused.
What does the sound that the Archmage made just now... mean?
I thought about it vividly for a moment, suddenly understood, and then I clapped my hands and applauded.
This move caused all the civil and military officials in the court to "understand".
They all clapped their hands and applauded, thinking that His Majesty wanted to buy the cassock and the nine-ring staff at a high price and give them to Master Xuanzang. This move should be celebrated with applause.
Tang San was still a little confused. He swatted a mosquito and scratched his butt. What was there to applaud?
Li Shimin also didn't understand why the Master took the lead in applauding?
But now that the atmosphere has reached this point, it seems that...it won't work if I don't buy it and give it to Master Xuanzang.
Seven thousand taels, just because Tang Sanfu swatted a mosquito, Li Shimin's seven thousand taels were wiped out.
Li Shimin was smiling on the outside, but was he thinking...
"Old monk, I bought your cassock and nine-ring staff..."
"Master Xuanzang, come here and put it on for me to see." Li Shimin said with a smile.
At this moment, Tang San Burian had already reacted.
This is really not a dream...
And this plot is very familiar, right?
Could it be... Jia Baoyu of the Three Kingdoms went to Liangshan to fight three white-bone spirits?
No, my mind is still a little confused~
Journey to the West, Guanyin is looking for an unofficial Buddhist scripture collector?
Is he...Master Xuanzang?
At that moment, my brain seemed to restart.
Actually traveled through time?
Damn it, I was eating hot pot and singing, why did I suddenly travel through time?
At the same time, a cute lolita voice sounded in his mind:
"Ding, welcome to the world of Journey to the West. This system is called the 'Bandit System' and we will serve you wholeheartedly!"
"Ding, the system will assist the master to travel westward, subjugate demons, go to Lingshan Mountain, seize territory, go to heaven, unify the three realms, and become the most powerful bandit in the world of Journey to the West."
"Ding, the master can travel westward and check in at ninety-nine and eighty-one locations to get rewards and strengthen himself."
…
Tang San was stunned for a moment, shocked in his heart:
"System? Have you really traveled through time? Have you become Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty? I just said that with my good looks, I must be the chosen one."
"system?"
"Ding, what's the problem, Master?"
Tang San was stunned for a moment: "Are you fucking gone now? Where's the gift package for beginners? Do you think I haven't read the novel?"
"Ding, don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors, don't make rumors!"
Tang San was buried: "Damn, let others think you can't afford a big gift package. Hurry up and get one."
"Ding, this really doesn't exist..."
"Are you eating shit? You have nothing, how can you be a part of the system? How can you come out to hang out?"
system:"………"
Sure enough, I chose the wrong gangster!
“Ding~~
Name: Tang San Burial (Tang Monk, Tang Xuanzang, Jiang Liuer)
Spells: None
Weapon: Nine-ring tin staff
Magic weapon: brocade cassock
Level of practice: None yet
Level of gangsterism: beginning to take shape
Level of lust: outrageous”
Looking at the virtual board that suddenly appeared in front of him, Tang Sanzhan stared at the level of lust and said angrily in his heart:
"False accusation, you framed me!"
…………
Under the service of his attendants, Tang Sanzong put on a brocade cassock and held a nine-ringed tin staff. His whole temperament changed.
All of a sudden, he went from a college student to a great mage.
All the civil and military officials present praised him, and the eyes of the palace ladies on both sides shone brightly.
One word: handsome and scumbag!
I just don't know why, but it always looks a little bit vulgar.
It must be a problem with his clothes. How could Master Xuanzang be so obscene?
Looking at the old monk again, he nodded with satisfaction, and then said:
"Although you have the intention of worshiping the Buddha and trying to ward off misfortune, your use of Hinayana Buddhism to teach you is of no use. I know that there is profound Mahayana Buddhism in the Great Leiyin Temple in the west of Tianzhu. It can help you overcome misfortune, dissolve hatred and save lives. People..."
Tang Sanzong sneered in his heart, Buddhism really knows how to develop business.
The so-called learning of Buddhist scriptures is nothing more than a marketing tool to develop Buddhism business in the Tang Dynasty.
As for Buddhism resolving suffering...
Throughout Journey to the West, the Tang Dynasty was peaceful and peaceful, with few monsters.
As soon as the Tang Dynasty came out, there were demons everywhere!
The closer you get to Lingshan, the more ferocious the monsters become.
But instead he said that the Lingshan Buddhist Sutra could save the people of the Tang Dynasty?
If there is no Buddha in the world, the devil is not a devil.
If there were no demons in the world, where would the Buddha come from?
Do we need Buddha only when there are demons, or do we need demons only when there are Buddhas?
It's a pity, how could Li Shimin understand the routine here?
He needs the power of governance to cover up his flaws.
I heard that this Mahayana Buddhism can make the country peaceful and the people peaceful, so I hurriedly said:
"I dare to ask if I can go get this sutra."
The old monk smiled. His goal was achieved, and his body suddenly transformed. His abrupt feet grew into lotus pedestals. Suddenly, plain clothes and white robes were added to his body. From a limp monk, he transformed into the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva with the Buddha's light shining all over him.
I saw the Bodhisattva holding a pure vase in one hand and holding flower fingers in the other. His unparalleled face was revealed in the Buddha's light. He knelt down and worshiped, and the monks called him Guanshiyin.
His Majesty Li, the king of Tang Dynasty, also lost his composure and shouted:
"Bodhisattva~~What a Bodhisattva..."
Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled and spoke slowly:
"Now, in accordance with the decree of my Buddha, the Tathagata, the World Honored One, I have gone to the Eastern Land to find a trustworthy scripture collector. After ninety-nine and eighty-one eons, I will enter the Great Thunder Sound Temple to obtain the Mahayana Sutra, so that I can overcome the misfortune and relieve the suffering, and let the people of the Eastern Land live in peace and contentment. …”
Li Shimin was overjoyed and said:
"I don't know Bodhisattva, who can I go to get the sutra? I ask Bodhisattva to show me!"
Avalokitesvara asked: "You guys, who do you think has great virtue and perseverance and can take on this great responsibility to obtain the true scriptures?"
For a moment, all the officials in the court looked at each other, thinking this was an opportunity.
At this time, Tang Sanzun stood up and said calmly:
"I don't know if I, Tang San, am buried as a person of Buddhist scriptures. Who is in favor of it and who is against it?"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence.
