Monk Tang got off his horse and entered the court with all the people.
Tang Seng led the dragon horse, put down the burden, and stood under the jade steps with Lin Yun, Wukong, Bajie, and Shaseng.
This is respect for the emperor.
Although Taizong was not a king, he was still the greatest emperor after all.
Taizong didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly announced: "My younger brother and all the disciples go to the palace."
Afterwards, a few people were given to sit, and Tang Seng sat down for Xie En and taught people to carry the scriptures.
Then pass it on by the servant.
When Taizong saw it, he was actually not very interested in the scriptures, as long as he had them, he just asked, "How many scriptures are there here? And how did you get them?"
Speaking of this, Tang Seng said, this is a long story!
Then he used the method of flashback, first said: "When the minister and monk arrived at Lingshan, he saw the Buddha. The two Venerables Mengcha Anuo and Kaye first led him to the Zhenlou to give food, and then to the Baoge to preach the scriptures."
"It's just that the venerable man needed to ask for personnel, so he didn't send him because he didn't prepare it. He didn't say much, and he gave me the scriptures. We should thank the Buddha for his kindness and go east. Suddenly, the demon wind snatched the scriptures away. Fortunately, my disciples Some supernatural powers are chased away, but they are all thrown away loosely. Because of the exhibition, they are all empty books without words!"
"What? Empty copy without characters?" Tang Taizong was startled. If it was empty, wouldn't it mean that he wanted to be cool?
"The ministers were also shocked, and they went back to pray and beg, but the Buddha said: 'When this scripture was accomplished, a bhikkhu sage went down the mountain to read and recite it at the elder Zhao's house in Shewei State, to ensure the safety of his family's survivors, The deceased was detached, so he only asked him for three buckets and three liters of rice grains and gold, which meant that he was selling it cheaply. Later, his descendants had no money to use it.' We knew that the two venerables needed to ask for personnel. There are 35 volumes of this scripture, and several volumes have been retrieved from each volume, totaling 48 volumes, and this number can be combined into one collection.”
After Taizong heard this, he was relieved, very happy, and hurriedly ordered: "Guanglu Temple has a banquet, and the East Pavilion will be rewarded."
Suddenly seeing the four of Lin Yun standing at the bottom of the steps, their appearance was unusual, so he asked again: "Are all the high-ranking disciples foreigners?"
Speaking of this, Master Tang is still quite grateful from the bottom of his heart, after all, it is really difficult to go on this journey without them.
Then he introduced: "My great disciple's surname is Sun, his Dharma name is Wukong, and I also call him Sun Xingzhe. He was originally from the Shuilian Cave of Huaguo Mountain in Aolai Country, Dongsheng Shenzhou. , was trapped by the Buddha in the stone box of the Liangjie Mountain in Xifan, and was persuaded by Guanyin Bodhisattva to be good, and he was willing to take refuge. It was a minister who went there to save him, thanks to the protection of this disciple."
"This is Lin Yun, who started with Wukong, and usually helps a lot. It is also thanks to him along the way."
Lin Yun was a little embarrassed to hear that, after all, Lin Yun had been waiting for Tang Seng to be arrested so many times...
"My second disciple's surname is Zhu, his dharma name is Wu Neng, and I call him Zhu Bajie. He was born in Yunzhandong, Fuling Mountain. Because he made trouble in the old village of Wusi Zanggao, he was persuaded by the Bodhisattva to be good. Thanks to Wukong and Lin Yun's efforts to collect them, they were able to shoulder the burdens along the way and made great achievements in wading through the water."
"The third disciple's surname is Sha, and his Dharma name is Wujing. The officials also called him Monk Sha. He was born as a monster in the Liusha River.
"And that horse was not given by His Majesty."
Taizong said strangely: "The pornography is the same, why not?"
"I went to the Snake Pan Mountain and waded in the Yingchou stream. The original horse was swallowed by this horse. Thanks to Lin Yun and Wukong, I asked the Bodhisattva to ask the Bodhisattva about the origin of the horse. It turned out to be the Dragon King of the West Sea. Because of his guilt, the Bodhisattva rescued him and taught him. It is the same as the foot strength of the minister. At that time, it was transformed into a real horse, and the hair piece was the same. Fortunately, he climbed mountains and ridges, trekked ruggedly, and when he went, he rode and came.
When Taizong heard this, he was full of praise, but he asked Lin Yun again: "Gaozu looks like he came from the Central Plains, but he is from the Tang Dynasty? But why is he wearing a Taoist uniform?"
Lin Yun was thinking about what to do after returning to Leiyin Temple, and was taken aback when asked, but then he said: "Go back to the Son of Heaven, I am also a member of the Central Plains, but I am not a Tang Dynasty, but a Dahan, and I was destined to become the God of the River at that time , and presided over the canonization of the patron saint of the twelve zodiac signs. Later, he was punished for recklessness in the North Sea. Later, he became the river god of the two realms. Miaoyuan Qinghua Xiansheng Zhenjun Yunyao Shangxian was added as the river god of Tongtian River and the river god of two realms."
After saying a word, everyone was shocked.
Lin Yun said, now that the effect has been achieved, can this incense belief also be arranged?
Chapter 328 Talk about the future in the middle of the night, see all the flowers in Chang'an in two days
"So that's the case, I didn't expect to have such an identity!" Tang Taizong was also surprised.
Then, to Lin Yun's surprise, there was no more after that...
Tang Taizong directly ignored the past, and asked again: "Yudi and several high-ranking disciples have traveled far to the west. How much distance have they traveled in total?"
That's it?
Lin Yun said that I said a lot, and you were surprised and then disappeared?
Yes, it's gone. Li Er is not a fool, so he can naturally hear that Lin Yun introduced so much because he wanted something, so he just stopped talking.
Speaking of this, Mr. Tang had a lot of emotions. After sorting out his memories, he said: "I still remember what the Bodhisattva said. The imaginary number is one hundred and eight thousand miles away. I didn't count the number on the way. I only know that I passed it seven times. Cold and heat. Mountains and ridges every day, the forest is not small, and the water is wide and flooding. During the period, several kings passed by, and all of them had their seals."
Seeing Tang Taizong's confused face, Master Tang said that the customs clearance document also had an effect at this time.
So he said: "Wukong, quickly get the customs clearance document and hand it over to His Majesty."
Wukong didn't say much, and he did what he heard. This is the highlight moment of Master Tang. After all, it's a master-student relationship. At this last moment, we still have to support each other.
This customs clearance document was handed over, and Tang Taizong took it to read. This front page is recorded on the first three days of September 13, Zhenguan [-]th year.
Taizong also said with a smile: "It's been a long time for you to work far and wide, and it has been many years now."
Open it again carefully, and there are the seals of Baoxiang, Wuji, Chechi, Xiliang Nu, Jisai, Zhuzi, Lion and Camel, Bhikkhu, and France There are also Fengxian County Seal, Yuhua Prefecture Seal, and Jinping Mansion Seal.
After Tang Taizong read it, he felt that this thing was not bad for collection, but he didn't comment, but put it away directly.
At this time, an official came here to report that the banquet was ready, and he also had the demeanor of a virtuous and corporal. The lower hall walked with Tang Seng's hand, and asked again: "A few high-ranking disciples, can you be considerate of etiquette?"
Tang Seng was not used to it, so he also said: "Except for Lin Yun, the rest of the young disciples are all monsters in the mountain village and wilderness, and they are not familiar with the etiquette of the Chinese holy dynasty. I hope you will forgive me."
This sentence is wrong, these three are all descended from the Heavenly Court, so don't be too clear about the etiquette.
However, since the lower realm is a demon, it is a bit more willful and free and easy.
Taizong smiled and said: "Haha, no problem, no problem, let's invite Dongge to the banquet together."
After all, this is the emperor of the human race. A simple question and answer, but it made Master Tang confused.
Tang Seng took the merits of learning the scriptures, but was controlled by Taizong's few words, so he thanked him again, greeted several disciples, and all went to the pavilion to watch, and he lost his high spirits just now.
I have to say that even this banquet is different from the previous ones. After all, it is a big country of China, so this level is much higher.
Looking around, the door is hung with colorful embroidery and the ground is lined with red felt.
Looking at the delicacies on the banquet, they are even more fragrant and fresh.
The tableware is also exquisite, amber cups, glass cups, inlaid with gold and green; gold plates, white jade bowls, inlaid with brocade and flowers.
First, some desserts, rotten boiled mango, sweet taro.
The exotic mushrooms served afterwards tasted sweet, and the sea vegetables were even more exotic.
Ginger-spicy bamboo shoots, honeydew sunflower, gluten-free toon leaves, fungus tofu skin, asparagus celery, dried fern powder, radish boiled with peppercorns, shredded melon mixed with mustard.
These vegetarian dishes came up one by one.
Tang Seng and his disciples were stunned, how can this Su Zhai be so rich?
Of course, in addition to vegetarian food, several kinds of exotic fruits are also competing for beauty.
