[Journey to the West] So I am Monk Tang
Chapter 3
I always thought that I was just wearing ancient clothes in an ordinary way, and my requirements for myself were to eat well, wear warm clothes, and obtain a certain social status.I am currently studying scriptures and Sanskrit with Master Faming, and I feel that I am making good progress. If everything goes well, I don’t want to be famous in history like Tang Sanzang, but I am satisfied as long as I leave a footnote in the official records.
What a pragmatic person I am.
However, being so down-to-earth and never ambitious, I have greatly shaken my previous life goals.
There are monsters in this world!In front of my eyes, a monster who was knocked out with a stick and then transformed into its original shape!
I feel that what I traveled through is not the Tang Dynasty in the history books.
As a science student, I studied in the School of Vehicles in my university. It is no problem for me to design models, but if you want to ask me about history other than history books, I can only look at you with a confused face. In fact, I had no interest in this before.Well, to be honest, I don't actually remember much from the history books.
But if I skip my superficial knowledge of literature and history, I think of another story that happened in the Tang Dynasty and the reigning emperor was also Li Shimin.
"Journey to the West".
Then my train of thought got stuck here.
In modern times, when walking on the street, you can pull random passers-by, from sixty to seventy, down to five or six years old, and ask them about the plot of "Journey to the West", most of them can give a general idea.This is citizenship.I can also give a general idea. Although in middle school, homework will be assigned to read the four great classics every year during the winter and summer vacations, but that time is not enough to go out. I basically never finished it. The speed of ten lines at a glance is basically Read it today and forget it tomorrow.However, I have watched a lot of TV series and cartoons, and I have watched them many times. I think I am still very sure about the outline of the plot.
And then what?It's gone.
I know about learning scriptures from the west, I know ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, I know a hundred and eight thousand miles, and all I know is that they have a difficult journey. Tang Seng is pious but lags behind. 'Brother, Master was captured by the goblin!Senior Brother, Master and Second Senior Brother were captured by the goblin! '.I don't remember any more details.
When the book is used up, I hate it less.
I finally understand the meaning of this sentence.
Master Fa Ming saw that I was out of focus all day long, and even the progress of my studies was slowed down, so he dragged me to talk heart-to-heart.
I told him that I never thought there were monsters in the world, and I didn't believe them until I saw them with my own eyes.So, since there are monsters, do ghosts and gods also exist?
Amitabha, monks do not lie, but I have not officially become a monk, so I have no psychological burden at all.
Master Fa Ming was taken aback for a moment, probably because he didn't expect me to ask this question.I understand why he was in a daze, because I grew up in Jinshan Temple and was smoked by the atmosphere in the temple for several years, so I don't believe in ghosts and gods.But Master Fa Ming quickly recovered and told me a story.
That was 11 years ago, before I was born.The emperor at that time was already Li Shimin. For a while, he recruited Taoist monks. Although he didn't say what it was for at the time, after so many years, there were always some rumors.
The palace was haunted at that time, and the emperor couldn't sleep well at night.So, why is it haunted?Because the emperor broke his promise, he promised to intercede with a dragon king in his dream, but he didn't take it seriously after waking up, and that dragon king was beheaded by Wei Zheng like this.Of course the Dragon King is not reconciled, Wei Zheng, you are a courtier, your emperor said he would spare my life, yet you actually killed me!The most hateful thing is the emperor, who agreed to intercede but failed to keep his word. If I don't settle accounts with you, who else can I turn to?The emperor, who couldn't sleep well, had to ask Qin Shubao and Yuchi Jingde to guard the door for him, and then asked Wei Zheng to guard the back door for him.
Going on like this is not a solution. Later, the emperor decided to go to the underworld to solve this problem.The people in the prefecture gave him face very much, and he promised to give a thank you gift after he settled the matter.Li Shimin, who had suffered a loss of promise once, took it seriously this time and did not break the appointment.After settling this matter, he felt refreshed, pardoned the world, and opened a recruitment list.This is normal, but another thing he did is a little puzzling.
The emperor married Yumei to a widower, Liu Quan.
It's not right to be in the wrong household. If there is no trick in it, who will believe it.
But the widower Liu's family is rich and he is still a talented person recruited on the recruitment list, so everyone has no objection.And the reason why Master Faming was able to tell me this story was because Yumei Li Yuying drank too much alcohol at the party one day and told the story. Even my master knew about it.
Regarding what the emperor has experienced, I am actually not interested, because when Master Faming told me, I vaguely remembered this story, and what I can't accept is what happened to Yumei Li Yuying .
Li Yuying is actually not Li Yuying.
This sentence is a bit of a mouthful, isn't it?The matter had to start when Li Shimin came back from the underworld and Amnesty opened the recruitment list for the world.The purpose of opening the recruitment list is to select talents for the imperial examination, and secondly, to recommend sages from all over the world and let them go to the underworld to deliver the melons and fruits promised by the emperor.Living people cannot go to the underworld, so it is said that offering melons and fruits is actually asking the person to swallow poison to die, and then the soul leaves the body and goes to the underworld.
Liu Quan is a sage, but he recommended himself.
As I said before, this Liu family is very wealthy. Once when he came home, he saw his wife leaving the inner courtyard and talking to the monk at the gate.He was very upset, so he stabbed his wife a few words, and the words were not very pleasant. The wife couldn't stand the irritation, so she hanged herself, leaving only a son and a daughter.Then Liu Quan regretted it.
When I heard this, I simply wanted to say that this man is a wonderful flower.Oh, in the matter of his wife committing suicide, he was wrong, and he regretted it after death.Shouldn't one normally bring up one's children with guilt?In the end, he didn't, he heard about the recruitment list, so he took the initiative to send him to his death.
Those sons and daughters were reincarnated into his family, and they really did not cultivate in their previous lives.
But later development proved that I still think of people too simply.After this Mr. Liu Quan arrived in the underworld, he first offered melons and fruits, and then when he was inquired, he told his experience and regrets, and then wanted to meet his wife's soul again.Yan Wang checked the life and death books, but found that Liu Quan and his wife were all long-lived people, and the death date had not come at all, so he was going to let them return to the sun.However, the body of Liu Quan's wife, Li Cuilian, had been buried in the ground long ago, and her soul could not return to its original place at all.
How to do this?
Yan Wang quickly came up with an idea, the royal sister Li Yuying should die suddenly, so it is better to borrow her body to let Li Cuilian return to the sun.
Li Shimin is also a good-hearted man. After knowing this, not only did he not blame him, he also made them a husband and wife again, and gave Liu Quan the dowry, costumes, and jewelry that originally belonged to Li Yuying, and let them go home to live.
I feel that if I have such a good brother, I will definitely be a ghost and never let him go.
But Li Shimin is not my brother, but a golden thigh that I will never let go if I have the opportunity to grab it, so I don't make any comments on his actions.
Although the story that Master Fa Ming told me was too much to talk about, his goal has been achieved. I am 12 sure that there is no shortage of gods, ghosts and ghosts in this world.
"So, master, you also have supernatural powers?" I was actually pleasantly surprised, "Just like how you dealt with that spider spirit that day, do you have the means to restrain her?"
Who doesn't have a fairy dream in mind?
"There are only half a volume of fragments, and I recite them every day, and I feel that I have gained a little." Master Fa Ming didn't hide it from me. I read the fragments of scriptures he showed me, all written in Sanskrit, and I stumbled. I don't know much about it, but Master Faming takes me to read it every day when I do my homework. "Your Buddha's relationship is deeper than being a teacher. I hope you can find the complete book one day and fulfill my long-cherished wish."
This is completely different from the cultivation cheats I imagined, but in order to be able to fight when I unfortunately encounter monsters one day in the future, I still nodded cautiously.
Master Faming added homework to me, and I hardly had time to think about it.When you fall asleep almost as soon as you touch the pillow every day, it is difficult to think about other things.I originally thought that I might be excited that Brother Hou and I were in the same era, but then I thought about it, unless I was the monk Tang who was destined to go to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures, Brother Hou and I actually had no chance to meet.That's not right, if Monk Tang came back after receiving the scriptures, maybe I would also get out by then, so I can think about it at that time.
As for the idea of establishing friendship with Monk Tang in advance, it's not that I haven't thought about it. Everyone knows that it is a good potential stock, but also, who knows where he is staying in now?Who knows if he has a dharma name now, I know he used to be called Jiang Liu'er, but this name is a bit popular.For example, I, who was almost called by this name, or the youngest son of the woodcutter who lived at the bottom of the mountain. His mother happened to be washing clothes by the river the day he was born, and she gave him the same name after giving birth.
Well, cheap names are easy to feed.
I once doubted myself.You see, the abandoned baby was picked up by a monk by the river, almost named Jiang Liu'er, but now he is called Jin Chan.If I wasn't a time traveler, I would have almost believed it.
Brother Hou has such a great skill that he didn't even climb the Wuzhi Mountain of the Tathagata Buddha. It's hard for me to believe that I have such a great skill to take away his disciple Jin Chanzi's house.
So, this can only be a coincidence.
Until one day, the original plaque in the temple was a bit worn out, and a good person donated a new plaque.I looked at the three golden characters of Jinshan Temple on the new plaque, as if struck by lightning.
Jinshan Temple, flooded Jinshan Temple.
Could it be that what I'm waiting for is not Brother Monkey, but Lady White?Speaking of which, my master is from the generation of Fa, and there is an uncle named Fa Hai.
I almost floated back into the room.
That night, I listened to "Wait Once in a Thousand Years" sung by the White Snake all night, and when I woke up, I gave myself a slap in the face.
The white lady was moved by Fanxin during the Song Dynasty, and I have been wrong for hundreds of years.
What a pragmatic person I am.
However, being so down-to-earth and never ambitious, I have greatly shaken my previous life goals.
There are monsters in this world!In front of my eyes, a monster who was knocked out with a stick and then transformed into its original shape!
