Chapter 1661 Finalized in Secret!
"Xuan Zang, the young monk, has met Sun Dasheng." After hearing Li Shimin's words, Xuanzang immediately nodded to Sun Wukong and said with a smile.
"It turns out to be Master Xuanzang," Sun Wukong said calmly: "The King of Tang invited Master Xuanzang to come because I, the old Sun, told the King of Tang that I planned to personally select the Buddhist monks, so the King of Tang asked us to meet him first."
"Young monk understands," Xuanzang smiled and said, "Master Fang told me the reason when he invited me over."
When Sun Wukong heard this, he glanced at Fang Xuanling, and then said calmly to Xuanzang: "In that case, I don't want to talk nonsense anymore. I and Buddhism are incompatible. Now it is just because of calamity that we have to temporarily cooperate. That’s all.
When the pilgrimage to the West is completed, I, Lao Sun, will confront Buddhism again. If you don’t want to be in a dilemma then, you can give up now. "
"The great sage's words are wrong," Xuanzang's eyes flashed and he laughed softly: "If the great sage really plans to fight with Buddhism after obtaining the scriptures, the young monk thinks that it is a good idea for the young monk to go west with the great sage. It’s the best choice!”
"Oh?" Sun Wukong became interested when he heard this and said with a smile, "How do you say this?"
"What the Great Sage doesn't know is that the monk's sworn brother has always been dissatisfied with Buddhism. After all, there are many Buddhist temples, but those monks are not engaged in production and occupy a lot of land and money..."
Xuanzang looked at Sun Wukong and said with a smile: "Any wise king will never sit back and watch Buddhism become too big, because if Buddhism becomes too big, it will only be a cancer!"
"What does Master Xuanzang mean?" Sun Wukong was moved in his heart, but his face didn't show anything. He looked at Xuanzang and said calmly.
"The young monk's sworn brother plans to send the young monk to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West to take the opportunity to split the Buddhist sect!"
Xuanzang looked at Sun Wukong and said shockingly: "If the great sage really wants to go against Buddhism, the young monk thinks that the great sage may not have a better partner than the young monk."
Sun Wukong said nothing when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling.
Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling both nodded slightly, indicating that what Xuanzang said was true.
"Interesting," Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said softly: "In this case, it is not impossible for me, Old Sun, to escort you to the West to learn scriptures, but there is one thing, and that is that you must listen to my old Sun's command!"
"It should be like this," Xuanzang smiled and said to Sun Wukong: "After all, the little monk has no cultivation at all. He relied on the great sage to conquer demons along the way. How could the little monk not know what is good and what is good and make random comments?"
"In that case, I will escort you to the West to obtain scriptures, but..."
Sun Wukong nodded, and then a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Before that, I, the old grandson, have to lose the prestige of Buddhism!"
After saying that, Sun Wukong looked at Li Shimin and asked, "Prince Tang, don't you know that Guan Shiyin said that she will come to select Buddhist monks in a few days?"
"It is estimated that it will be five days later," Li Shimin looked at Sun Wukong and said sternly: "It will take almost five days for the eminent monks in the Tang Dynasty to gather in Chang'an City. After five days, it should be the time to select the people who want to learn the scriptures."
"After five days, I will come to Chang'an City again," Sun Wukong nodded to Li Shimin, and then said softly: "Besides, there is another private matter to get rid of the Tang Dynasty, that is, my junior sister is in Chang'an. If we are traveling in the city, please ask King Tang to send two people to lead the way for my junior sister."
