Chapter 4486

Uchiha Xuan had already left the Netherworld, and Yu Wenling didn't respond no matter how he called.

"Yu Wenling, your devil training is about to begin."

Yu Wenling was a little helpless. The next step would definitely be very painful and he would experience many hardships, but Yu Wenling still had a good mentality. For him, the temporary pain would definitely lead to a qualitative leap in the future.

How could the fragrance of plum blossoms come to my nostrils without a bone-chilling chill?

Gen Uchiha left the Netherworld, and he was now going to visit Guanyin Bodhisattva in the South China Sea.

Journey to the West also said that Guanyin Bodhisattva would go to Chang'an City to present cassocks and tin staffs. He also wanted to go to Guanyin Bodhisattva to find out the news.

Now in Chang'an City, Li Shimin asked Wei Zheng to find an enlightened monk to preside over the Land and Water Conference to redeem the souls of those who died.

Wei Zheng asked Yuan Shouren to be the assessor. Now Yuan Shouren has assessed tens of thousands of monks, but he has rejected them all. No one has passed, even those who are pending.

This made everyone in Chang'an City feel a little surprised. Some people felt that Yuan Shouren was antagonizing Buddhism. After all, Yuan Shouren was from the Taoist sect. Isn't it a joke to let a Taoist sect be the evaluator of the Buddhism sect?

Wei Zheng was also a little confused about this, so he went to Yuan Shouren and asked him.

"Prime Minister Wei Zheng, I know that doing this will cause a lot of criticism, but I have no choice but to do so. Although there are many monks in the Tang Dynasty, there are very few monks who have the ability to save the souls of wronged souls. Since Prime Minister, you give this important task to If you leave me, I will never fool the court, and I must find a suitable candidate." Yuan Shouren said to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng nodded and said: "There are so many monks coming now, but we haven't found a suitable candidate. Priest Yuan Shouren, how long do you think we have to look for? Can we find one?"

Regarding this matter, Wei Zheng was also a little worried. If he could not find it, how should he explain it to His Majesty?

The majestic Tang Dynasty had a vast territory and a large number of people. If they couldn't find even one monk who could save the souls of wronged souls, it would be a real slap in their face.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister. I think there will definitely be some. The Tang Dynasty is also full of capable people. I believe it won't be long before someone will arrive." After Yuan Shouren counted with his fingers, he smiled slightly.

Wei Zheng also nodded, said nothing more, and returned to the palace to resume his duties.

At the Jinshan Temple outside Chang'an City, Xuanzang continued to practice every day as before, and sometimes wanted to go out for a walk. However, in recent years, his master, Elder Faming, did not allow Xuanzang to go out and travel, and only allowed him to be honest. Stay and practice in Jinshan Temple.

"Master, it's really boring to stay in this temple all day long. Why don't we let the disciples go out for a walk? After all, we can't stay in this temple all our lives. How can we understand this? What about revealing the Buddha's Dharma? What's the difference between doing this and doing it behind closed doors?" Xuanzang came to Elder Faming and said.

Elder Faming glanced at Xuanzang indifferently: "Look at you, how do you look like a monk? You are still so playful at such an old age. The master is also old. Now the master has passed on the abbot of Jinshan Temple. I gave it to you, but you are still like this, how can Master feel at ease?"

Xuanzang is now the abbot of Jinshan Temple. Five or six years ago, Elder Faming passed this position to him.

The monks of Jinshan Temple didn't mean anything to this. They all admired Xuanzang and Xuanzang had the ability to do it.

Xuanzang was silent on the sidelines. Every time he wanted to go out, his master would say this to him, and his ears were calloused.

"And what you said about reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, you don't have to worry about that. If you have the opportunity to travel thousands of miles in the future, there will be great opportunities to hone you." Elder Faming looked at it. Xuanzang said again.

"Really? When can we wait?" Xuanzang's eyes shone with joy. He hadn't gone out for several years and really wanted to go out for a walk.

Chapter 1,797: Work together to achieve salvation

Elder Faming glanced at Xuanzang and said: "When the opportunity comes, it will come naturally. You don't have to be too concerned about this matter. What you will encounter when the time comes is yours, and you can't escape. "

Xuanzang stopped talking and sat aside, flipping through the scriptures. He had memorized these scriptures when he was a child, and now he has fully understood them. All the books in Jinshan Temple have also been fully understood, and he does not want to read more.

"Have you heard of something recently?" Elder Faming said suddenly.

"whats the matter?"

"Now there is a land and water conference in Chang'an City, calling monks from all over the world to come to Chang'an City, but it has been several days, but not a single monk meets the regulations." Elder Faming said with a smile.

"Oh? Why is this? Could it be that those monks are just a bunch of people who eat hard food?" Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Not to be rude, most of those monks are dedicated to the Buddha. However, there is a condition for Chang'an City to summon monks from all over the world this time. They need to give salvation to the wronged souls in the underworld. Very, very few monks in the world have to do this for this. , almost none, so our Datang has not elected anyone these days." Elder Fa Ming said.

Xuanzang: "Isn't there something in our Buddhism that can be saved by others?"

"There is such a Buddhist teaching, but there are very few people in the Tang Dynasty who know it." Elder Faming said calmly.

"Does the master know how to do it?"

"I have taught you everything I know, what do you think?" Elder Faming said with a smile.

Xuanzang nodded. Naturally, he had heard of Mahayana Buddhism but had never seen it before. When Xuanzang traveled around, he was also looking for Mahayana Buddhism, but he never found it.

After Xuanzang sat with his master for a while, he left Jinshan Temple and headed towards Chang'an City.

Elder Faming looked at him leaving, and Xuanzang smiled slightly. He just said that because he wanted to arouse the senior's curiosity and let him go to Chang'an City.

In this case, Xuanzang would not think about wandering around, and maybe he could still get his chance in Chang'an City.

Xuanzang had never seen so many monks in Chang'an City. Before he entered Chang'an City, he saw many monks walking around there, and for a moment he felt that he had arrived in the country of monks.

Walking in Chang'an City, all Xuanzang heard was about the Water and Land Conference. Everyone was very enthusiastic about this matter, and many monks wanted to participate. However, this matter was difficult, because you want to save the souls of wronged people. Not everyone can do this.

There are many monks who think they can do it, but they fail to do it after testing.

This made the monks feel a little disappointed and had a great impact on their confidence.

When Xuanzang heard this situation in Chang'an City, he understood a lot.

Originally, Xuanzang didn't want to participate in this excitement, but now he was helpless to send people off. In addition, this was what his second brother Li wanted to do, so Xuanzang felt that he should help Li Shimin.

This was because Xuanzang himself didn't know how to achieve salvation, because he didn't know whether his own practice methods were useful.

In the Tang Dynasty, almost all monks practiced Hinayana Buddhism, and they had almost never heard of Mahayana Buddhism.

Therefore, it is very difficult to achieve salvation.

But Xuanzang still wanted to give it a try.

Now he did not go to Yuan Shouren's side for assessment immediately, but returned to Jinshan Temple. He wanted to ask his master Faming for help.

"Are you really going to do this?" Fa Ming looked at Xuanzang and asked.

Xuanzang nodded, his eyes so firm.

Fa Ming: "There is no Mahayana Buddhism in our Tang Dynasty. It is difficult to achieve salvation, but if you really want to do it, there is still a way."

"Please give me some advice, master." Xuanzang said with a smile. He knew that his master would have great methods.

Fa Ming: "It cannot be accomplished with the strength of one person. If possible, you can find more monks and let those monks who are dedicated to the Buddha unite to jointly launch the Dharma and remember those wronged souls in their hearts. His words will have some meaning." There are certain methods to save those evil souls, but this method can only save a part of the evil souls. If you want to save all the evil souls, it will be very difficult, so do it according to your ability."

Xuanzang nodded, understanding a lot in his heart.

After returning to Chang'an City, Xuanzang came to Yuan Shouren.

"Is this little master going to be tested?"

"Yes."
