After lunch in Huasheng Temple, Master Xuanzang continued to give a lecture on Buddhism on the high platform in the afternoon, leading more than 1,000 Tang monks to chant scriptures, and transcending all kinds of grievances in the underworld.

Although he didn't understand Buddhism, Li Shimin and the ministers still persevered until the afternoon, and after finishing their vegetarian food in Huasheng Temple, they drove back to the palace with Mu Changsheng.

The first day of the water and land conference passed like this, but Mu Changsheng still did not wait for Guanyin to act, and sold the two treasures of the brocade robe and the nine-ring tin rod given by Rulai.

The second day was still the same, but the pastor was not in a hurry, because he knew that it was not him who should be most anxious now.

Buddhism carefully planned this land and water conference, in order to let Xuanzang appear in front of Li Shimin's eyes, and then arrange for Xuanzang to go to the west to learn scriptures.

But if he misses this water and land conference, then Xuanzang will have to go back to Jinshan Temple to practice.

Sure enough, after Master Xuanzang finished his lecture on the fifth day, Li Shimin drove back to the palace, and after the hundred officials returned home, Li Shimin's Prime Minister Xiao suddenly asked to see him.

At this time in the palace, Li Shimin was asking Mu Changsheng to practice some things and practice experience in cultivating innate pure yang gong, and Li Shimin still preferred to listen to Mu Changsheng's practice experience than listening to Xuanzang talk about Buddhism

After all, after practicing the innate pure yang gong, although his longevity growth cannot be seen or touched, his internal strength cultivation has made great progress than before, and he can definitely be regarded as a first-class master in the world, so how can Li Shimin not be confident?

Soon the prime minister came to the main hall, but he was accompanied by an old man and a young man, two scabies monks with bare heads and bare feet, and wearing ragged robes.

Among them, the old monk holds a golden nine-ring tin staff, and the young monk holds a brightly colored brocade robe that is extraordinary at first glance.

When Mu Changsheng, who was sitting on the left side of the main hall, saw the two of them, he immediately recognized them as Guanyin and Hui'an, and when he looked at the two, Mu Changsheng also felt that their eyes also fell on him.

Mu Changsheng looked calm, nodded to the two with a faint smile on his face, seeing this, the old monk's pupils shrank, and a trace of doubt and thought flashed in his eyes, and finally responded.

Seeing this, Li Shimin glanced at the two monks and said in surprise: "Xiao Qing, if it is too late today, you still come to ask to see you, but what is the important thing to start?"

"Your Majesty, on the way home, Fang Caichen happened to meet these two scabies monks on the street in the city, selling two treasures, this robe and a tin staff. ”

Prime Minister Xiao knelt down and said: "The minister saw that these two treasures were absolutely extraordinary, so he thought that he could give such treasures to Master Xuanzang to wear, so he led them to ask to see His Majesty." ”

"Oh?"

Li Shimin listened and looked at the robe and tin staff, and saw the treasure light flickering on the two treasures, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he asked with great joy: "Monk Leprosy, don't you know how to sell this tin staff and robe of yours?"

The old monk didn't salute either, but said in a leisurely voice: "The robe is five thousand taels, and the tin staff is two thousand taels." ”

"Huh?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he was taken aback, and said, "Monk Leper, what's so good about your robe, that it actually sells for 5,000 taels?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know, my robe is an ice silkworm silkworm, a skillful craftsman turns over the thread, a fairy is weaving, the goddess is machined, there are wishful beads, mani beads, dust beads, wind beads, and the red agate, purple coral, night pearls, relics and other treasures are embellished. ”

The old monk stroked his beard and said with a smile: "A wisp of the dragon can avoid the disaster of the Dapeng silkworm devouring; the crane hangs a trace of transcendent sanctification, but there are ten thousand gods in the place where it sits; and there are seven Buddhas with him in every action...... It's just that this robe has to be folded in leisure time, and it can only be worn when it meets the saint. ”

Listening to the old monk talk about the wonders of the robe, Mu Changsheng couldn't help nodding secretly, and with his eyesight, he could naturally see that Guanyin's description of the robe was not false.

Although the robe and tin staff she held were treasures, if it were worth it, the robe was far above the tin staff.

Because this robe is a very powerful Buddha treasure, it is not only decorated with those treasures, but also carries a very powerful mana.

It's just that maybe it's to test Tang Seng, so Guanyin said that this robe can't be worn at ordinary times, and can only be worn when it meets a saint, which also makes Elder Tang, an obedient baby, suffer a lot along the way.

But come to think of it, Buddhism has planned this journey to the west for thousands of years, and it doesn't matter if you don't prepare anything, if you are ready, how can you just take some stalls to fill the number?

"Oh, if this robe is so wonderful, it is indeed a treasure. ”

Li Shimin nodded, looked at the tin staff and said, "Then what's the point of your tin staff?"

So the old monk boasted about the tin staff again, but this time the introduction was not as detailed as the robe, but it was so casual and even a little perfunctory to praise a few sentences.

Next, Li Shimin ordered someone to unfold the robe, and sure enough, he saw that the robe treasure was gorgeous, and it was dotted with relics and wind beads, which was definitely a good baby.

"Sure enough, it's a good baby. ”

At this time, Mu Changsheng clapped his hands.

"Since the national teachers have said so, then this is definitely a treasure, come and give them gold and silver. ”

Li Shimin said with a smile: "I am now a great opener, and the water and land cultivation conference transcends the world and the underworld, and the two treasures of the robe and tin staff are just bought and given to the great monk Master Xuanzang." ”

"Your Majesty, take the gold and silver slowly, the old monk, I have a rule for selling these two treasures: those who are destined will not take a penny, and those who are not destined will not sell ten thousand gold. ”

At this time, the old monk's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said: "Since Master Xuanzang is a virtuous person, then this treasure is not for money, but is willing to give it to Master Xuanzang." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked away after glancing at the pastor, without dragging his feet in the slightest.

"Hey, you ......"

Li Shimin was about to stop the two when he saw them leaving, but he was stopped by Mu Changsheng with a raised hand, and when he looked again, the two had disappeared.

"National Teacher, why are you stopping me?"

Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "They sold thousands of taels of treasures, but now they give them to me empty-handed, if it is known, wouldn't it be said that I bully the weak with the strong?"

Mu Changsheng smiled, lowered his head and calculated, seeing this, Li Shimin also knew what kind of heavenly opportunity Mu Changsheng was counting, so he didn't dare to disturb.

"Your Majesty, Lao Dao has calculated that there have been changes in the water and land conference in the past few days, so don't move these two treasures for the time being. ”

After a while, Mu Changsheng's eyes flashed, and he said, "It's not too late to give it after the water and land conference is over, and then it can be regarded as His Majesty's reward for his seven days of hard work......

Li Shimin thought about it for a moment and was overjoyed: "The national teacher is really a good idea, so I will do what the national teacher says." ”

Mu Changsheng smiled slightly, these two treasures appeared, and the person who learned the scriptures was not far away.

The next day, it was the sixth day of the water and land conference, still by Xuanzang on the high platform to give a lecture, Li Shimin led the pastor Changsheng and civil and military officials, to the Huasheng Temple to watch, during which there were no waves.

Soon the seventh day, the last day of this grand land and water conference, arrived.

On this day, Li Shimin also specially ordered two soldiers to drag a brocade robe on a tray and a tin staff with a nine-ring tin staff to come to the Huasheng Temple, ready to reward Master Xuanzang at the end.

In the morning, Xuanzang was lecturing on the high platform, but I don't know when two scabies monks suddenly appeared in the field.

In the stunned eyes of everyone, the old monk went straight to Xuanzang's high platform, patted the table and asked Xuanzang sharply: "Master, why do you only talk about Hinayana Buddhism, but can you talk about Mahayana Buddhism?"
