After Tongjing left the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, he went straight to the Zen room where the abbot Tongyuan Qingxiu was repairing, and the abbot Tongyuan got up and greeted him: "Senior brother is back." ”

Tongjing nodded, turned around and closed the door of the meditation room, and the two came to sit opposite each other on the futon.

Tong Yuan couldn't help frowning after hearing this, and said in a low voice: "This Hu Xiaotian is actually so stubborn? ”

Tongjing said: "What's more, he also said wildly, saying that even if we dig three feet into the ground in Tianlong Temple, we will find out the assassin, which is really unreasonable." He turned blue with rage.

Tong Yuan said in a low voice: "Senior brother, don't be angry, what do you think is the reason behind this incident?" ”

Tongjing said: "I think nine times out of ten, they are deliberately creating trouble, they keep saying that there are assassins infiltrating, but who saw it? Why didn't anyone see so many monks in our Tianlong Temple? Aren't so many pairs of eyes as sharp as theirs? ”

Tong Yuan nodded and said: "The matter of Rift Cloud Valley has not yet been clarified, but now it has been revealed that an assassin has infiltrated the Fuxian Courtyard with the intention of assassinating the emperor, which is really not peaceful." ”

Tongjing said: "Hu Xiaotian is just a royal guard, if the emperor didn't support him, he wouldn't dare to have such a big courage to act so arrogantly in Tianlong Temple, the emperor first sent him to Rift Cloud Valley, and now he instructed him to search around in Tianlong Temple to create trouble, in my opinion, it is the emperor who really wants to get along with us!" ”

Tong Yuan's eyes lit up, as if he blamed his senior brother for not saying this, but he also had a general idea in his heart. Now it seems that the purpose of this Dakang Tianzi coming to Tianlong Temple is not to transcend the dead, let alone to chant the Buddha for any reason, he must have other intentions in Tianlong Temple.

Tongjing said: "I don't know what the emperor's plan is?" ”

Tong Yuan said: "What is there in Tianlong Temple that is worthy of his scheme?" Our monks have no wealth or power, and what we have is nothing more than Buddhist classics, and the emperor will not be interested in those scriptures. ”

Tongjing said: "Could it be that what he wants is the martial arts cheats of Tianlong Temple?" ”

Tong Yuan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Three hundred years ago. Tianlong Temple was once destroyed in the hands of the imperial court, and most of the Buddhist scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion were transported away by the imperial court, so it can be said that it was the biggest disaster since the establishment of my Tianlong Temple. Later, although Emperor Gaozong gave my temple a proper name, but that time it made the temple a great injury, and many classics were left behind, including the temple treasure book "Wuxiang Shengong". ”

Tongjing sighed and said, "Actually, our monks shouldn't have anything to do with the imperial court in the first place. At this point, we are not as good as Wujiguan. ”

Tong Yuan shook his head and said, "Cultivation doesn't care where you are, but where your heart is. ”

Hearing this, Tongjing was ashamed, although he was a senior brother, he was far inferior to this junior brother in the comprehension of Buddhism, which is why the previous abbot chose Tongyuan as his successor.

Tongyuan said: "Tianlong Temple can have today's scale is not easy to come by, the previous abbot entrusted the monks of the temple to me, I feel a deep responsibility, no matter how much it costs." I also want to ensure the safety of the temple, and I also want to ensure that the flame of Tianlong Temple will be passed on forever. ”

Tongjing said: "What is the secret in the Immortal Buddha of the Rift Cloud Valley?" ”

Tong Yuan shook his head and said: "I don't know very well, but since the emperor values it so much, it must be that the Immortal Buddha should hide some unknown secrets, and our monks don't care about these things, so it seems that I have to go to Fuxian Temple in person." ”

Tongjing nodded and said, "It should be so, it's time to find out what he means, if he really has a plan." As long as it is not against the rules of the temple, there is no need for us to turn against the court because of this. ”

In the afternoon of the same day. Tong Yuan, accompanied by two monks, came to visit the old emperor. He also heard that after the assassin infiltrated last night, the guards guarded at each intersection had been withdrawn, and the current focus of the defense was all around Fugenyuan.

Tong Yuan smiled and said: "The poor monk Tong Yuan specially came to visit His Majesty!" ”

Several guards glanced at each other, and someone had already run in to report. After a while, Kung Fu Zuo Tang came out from inside, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Abbot!" ”

Tong Yuan was really a little crying and laughing when he heard this, he was the abbot, but he was not an adult.

Zuo Tang said: "Wait a minute, let's go and report to Lord Hu." ”

Tongyuan was slightly stunned. He has also been here once in the past half a month, but it shouldn't be Hu Xiaotian's responsibility last time, and besides, he wants to see the emperor, not Hu Xiaotian, does he have to get Hu Xiaotian's permission first if he wants to see the emperor?

When he spoke, Hu Xiaotian led a team of guards from the direction of the bamboo forest in the distance and walked back, today they launched a search near the Fuxian Courtyard, Hu Xiaotian's real intention is of course to be familiar with the terrain, and finally had such a reasonable opportunity, how can he make good use of it, this day obtained more information than the previous half a month combined, after all, there was no such opportunity to search around openly in the past, now it is different, under the banner of looking for the killer, almost the entire west courtyard of Tianlong Temple, If you don't understand it, you can be regarded as discerning people, and Hu Xiaotian was chosen to help him do things, but others really don't have the ability to do it.

Hu Xiaotian saw Tongyuan in front of the door from a distance, and he laughed and said, "Master Tongyuan is here, why are you blocking Master Tongyuan from the door?" Don't you know who is the master of this place? What a bastard, get out of the way. ”

A group of guards hurriedly moved out of the way.

Tong Yuan didn't rush in, and waited for Hu Xiaotian to come close and smiled: "Lord Hu has worked hard." ”

"It's not hard, in order to ensure the safety of the emperor, even if you sacrifice your life with blood and sweat, didn't the Buddha say, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? I've always been the first to suffer and suffer! ”

Tong Yuan said with a smile: "Master Hu's words are full of Zen principles, admire and admire!" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "The abbot has lifted me, how can I know any Zen principles, just some of the most basic principles of life." ”

Tong Yuan smiled and said: "Actually, both the truth and the Buddha are the same, and Master Hu really has a wise root." ”

Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "When the abbot said this, I have the intention of becoming a monk, but it's a pity that a group of wives and concubines are waiting at home, if I don't go back, won't it cause them all to become widows?" This kind of cruel thing, the Buddha probably won't allow me to do it. ”

The two monks beside Tong Yuan frowned unconsciously, their expressions looked a little disgusted, thinking that it was really disrespectful for Hu Xiaotian to say such things in front of the abbot.

Abbot Tongyuan didn't mind, and said softly: "Lord Hu has compassion, which is really a great good!" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "If you are a monk and must break the dust, but you have to make your relatives sad and your lover sad, you should have escaped into the empty door to seek mercy and save people, but it hurt your own family, abbot, I really can't figure it out, can you explain it to me?" Although Hu Xiaotian said that the matter is simple, it is indeed the biggest contradiction for Buddhist disciples, and almost every monk will experience the torment of this level.

Tong Yuan said calmly: "Everything in this world is small and big, and depending on what angle and position Lord Hu wants to stand in, the boss is not you, of course I don't know Lord Hu's entanglement and pain, and Lord Hu is not me, how do I know that the boss is at ease and calm?" ”

Hu Xiaotian secretly praised in his heart, after all, he was the abbot of Tianlong Temple, and his cultivation was not the same as that of Tongji and Tongjing.

Tong Yuan said to Hu Xiaotianheshi: "Lao Wei went to see the emperor first. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "I'll take the abbot over." ”

Tong Yuan said to the two monks who followed him: "You are waiting for me outside. ”

Hu Xiaotian led Tongyuan to the fake emperor's meditation room, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the abbot is here!" ”

The voice of the old emperor came from inside: "Please come in, master." ”

The door opened from the inside, and the little eunuch Yin Zheng came out and invited Tongyuan in. He and Hu Xiaotian exchanged a knowing look, and neither of them spoke to each other.

Master Tongyuan walked into the meditation room, and the old emperor was still sitting cross-legged in meditation and said to Tongyuan: "Master, please sit!" ”

Tong Yuan sat down on the futon opposite him: "The poor monk came to apologize to the emperor in person, what happened last night was really the temple's negligence in taking precautions, so that the thieves had a chance." ”

The old emperor smiled indifferently: "On the contrary, I want to apologize to you, because it is really a sin to disturb the peace of the monks in the temple because of my affairs." ”

Tongyuan said: "The poor monk has asked people to check, there are only seven hunchbacked monks in the entire Tianlong Temple, as for the chicken breasts, there are only two chicken breasts, and there is only one left who is both hunchbacked and chicken breasts, and the poor monks have asked people to find them all, and his majesty can send someone to identify them to see if there are any suspicious characters among them." "It's better to be active than passive, don't you want to check? We took the initiative to find all the people for you to check, and if there is no one you are looking for, see what else to say.

The old emperor said: "I didn't want to publicize it, I didn't want to make a big deal about it, and I didn't want to disturb your peace, but these imperial guards insisted on finding out the infiltrator for my safety, which made people panic and disturbed your peace, and I didn't expect it." ”

Tong Yuan said: "This morning, Lord Hu went to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to search, and said that he had served the emperor's will. ”

The old emperor flatly denied it: "I didn't let him go to the Scripture Pavilion, the Scripture Pavilion is the forbidden place of your Tianlong Temple, why is he so ignorant?" Come on, call Hu Xiaotian in for me! ”

Tong Yuan didn't expect the old emperor to come to this hand, without his order, would Hu Xiaotian dare to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion? It's really weird.

Hu Xiaotian quickly walked in, and said in his heart, what tricks does this fake emperor want to do?

The old emperor pointed at Hu Xiaotian's nose and scolded angrily: "Bastard, who let you lead people to trespass into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion?" ”

The third more is sent, knowing that the brothers have done their best, but the octopus still has to shout, there is a monthly pass? It seems that if you want to protect the chrysanthemum successfully, you need at least 600 monthly passes, and the octopus fights, and there will be another one tonight! (To be continued......) R1292
