Chapter 237 Khan Has a Buddha in His Heart

Master Baotongzi felt vaguely a little sore in his balls, although he no longer paid much attention to this extraneous object since serving the Buddha.

But today, he suddenly felt an inexplicable pain between his legs, as if someone had grabbed his balls and pulled hard.

The person who made the head of Nalanda Temple feel sore was a man wearing a strange blue robe opposite him. This was the envoy sent by Juer Khan.

The messenger held his head high, and because he was already tall, from the short and thin Master Baotongzi, almost all he could see was two thick nostrils, and the smell of pagans gushed out from his nostrils.

Yes! It smells like a pagan. As the head of the Nalanda Temple in the era of the decline of Buddhism, Master Baotongzi is very familiar with this expression and temperament.

Because those Brahmins who believe in Shiva often look at them with this expression.

"Thanks to His Majesty Ju'er Khan's great love, I was given a treasure from the East. I can't repay it in this temple, but I dare to send an envoy to observe the teachings of Yogi."

Master Baotongzi waited for a moment and saw that the messenger still had no intention of lowering his nostrils, so he could only take the initiative to speak.

Zhang Zhao did send many gifts through Guo Guangsheng, mostly Shu brocade and a small amount of extremely precious porcelain.

Especially these pieces of porcelain. Although in China, a piece of Shu brocade can buy more than a dozen pieces of this kind of porcelain, but here in Tianzhu, after traveling tens of thousands of kilometers, even an ordinary porcelain bowl costs thousands of gold to be transported here.

Therefore, when Master Baotongzi said that he received a generous gift from Zhang Zhao, he was not being modest, but what he said was actually a test.

"The Treatise on the Yogacara" is the fundamental treatise of the consciousness-only school of Mahayana Buddhism and the Dharmaxiang Sect. It is said to have been oralized by Maitreya Bodhisattva, a disciple of Sakyamuni Buddha, and compiled without records.

More importantly, "Yogashi Earth Treatise" is one of the most important scriptures that the Tang monk Tang Sanzang took back from Tianzhu.

There is a volume of "The Treatise on the Earth of the Yogi" in Nalanda Temple, which was copied by Sanzang of the Tang Dynasty. It is of great significance.

Whenever a Dharma-seeking monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty comes to Nalanda Temple, the first thing he does is to seek a view of this sutra.

But if you are not interested in this book at all, or do not know its origin, you can basically conclude that there is a high probability that you are not a disciple of Buddhism.

Sure enough, things went completely in the direction predicted by Master Baotongzi. The messenger turned his nostrils to the sky and snorted softly.

"Looking at the scriptures, there will be plenty of time in the future, and I am here for the two families to join forces.

His Majesty Juer Khan personally led an army of 50,000 tigers and wolves to pacify the Shahi Kingdom. Hearing that the Rajputs from the Balihar Kingdom were bullying the monks and destroying the scriptures, Khan hated them with gnashing of teeth and wanted to punish the thieves. His Majesty the King is unknown.

, are you willing to join us in the expedition?"

King Rajyapala of the Pala Dynasty first looked at Master Baotongzi, and then they both shook their heads slightly at the same time.

Apparently everyone felt that this messenger did not look like a Buddhist, but rather like a pagan with ulterior motives.

However, when Rajayapura looked at the group of fifty warriors outside the palace in the distance, he felt a little frightened.

It was not that he was afraid that the fifty warriors brought by the envoy could do anything to him. No matter how inferior the weapons of the Polo Dynasty were, they would not let just fifty warriors do anything to him.

Rajyapala actually saw what was behind these fifty warriors.

He had been entertaining Ju'er Khan's envoys and deputy envoys here for almost half an hour. The fifty warriors were just standing outside with their helmets and armor on, guarding them all the time. Not to mention taking off their armor and sitting down to rest, they didn't even have room.

Move, still standing upright.

His Majesty the King actually has some understanding of the battle formation.

In his more than 30 years of life, he had never heard of, let alone seen, a warrior who could stand in the sun for half an hour with his helmet on and his back straight.

From this point of view, even if Ju'er Khan's 50,000 warriors cannot all be like this, as long as there are three or two thousand, it is scary enough.

"Uh..., this... I want the envoy to know that our country has always advocated peace. In addition, floods and droughts have been quite frequent in recent years, and it is difficult to collect food and grass. I'm afraid it will be difficult to send troops."

For the first time, Rajyapura felt as if his tongue was tied up, and he stuttered when he spoke. He was suddenly a little afraid of Juerhan's arrival.

Although the Rajputs are hateful, the two sides have been fighting for so many years and they still know the basics.

Especially after he used the lying method, the strength of the monks in the country was fully brought into play. They could not defeat the Balihar dynasty of the Rajputs, but self-protection was no longer a big problem.

But this Ju'er Khan has such a warrior under his command, and he doesn't seem to be very pious to the Buddha. Why should he provoke such a demon star?

There is a Balihar dynasty standing in the middle, so it seems to be safer.

However, he didn't want to provoke, but he certainly didn't want to offend Ju'er Khan, so he used more tactful words and did not get angry because of the envoy's impoliteness.

"Huh!" A cold snort suddenly burst out from his nostrils, and Rajya Polo was stunned and stunned.

Unexpectedly, his hesitant deliberation only made the messenger on the other side even more rude, and even snorted coldly at him.

No matter how good-tempered this person is, he is still the leader of a country. Rajyapala's face turned dark immediately.

Fan Shun, who was behind Guo Guangsheng, almost laughed out loud. I didn't expect that Guo Guangsheng acted so well. It was really hateful.

"Your Majesty the King, Master Tripitaka, it is getting late today. We have traveled day and night to come. The warriors outside the palace are also tired. Why don't we retreat and rest for the night and come back to see you tomorrow?"

"That's fine!" Rajyapala nodded with a dark face. Only this one looked decent. He endured his anger and stood up and made a gesture to see off the guests.

"Then please ask the envoy to go down and rest first!"

....

The Vedic Court of Nalanda Temple is one of the eight courtyards of Nalanda Temple. It covers an extremely large area and is also a quiet place for entertaining distinguished guests.

Fanshun, who said he wanted to go down to rest, had already been brought to King Rajyapala and the first master Baotongzi.

"The deputy envoy is here, but do you want to apologize to Master Baotongzi?"

Rajyapala leaned on the throne and looked really angry.

Although he asked Fanshun if he wanted to apologize to Master Baotongzi, he was actually asking Fanshun if he should apologize to him.

Fanshun nodded, then shook his head, cupped his hands and said, "If I'm just talking about you, I really offended His Majesty the King today, I'm afraid it's just an apology, but it still lacks some etiquette.

But no matter what happened today, Angel Guo came on behalf of His Majesty Juer Khan. Although he acted rudely, he did not apologize. The great Khan of Khans does not need to apologize to anyone."

"Then please tell the deputy envoy to tell the envoy that we will set off tomorrow!"

Rajyapra waved his sleeves, what did Juerhan think of himself?

Did he regard himself as King Harsha who unified Tianzhu? Or did he regard himself as his subordinate?

In this case, what else is there to talk about?

"Alas!" Fanshun sighed, closing his eyes and recalling the deeds of Dr. Qu, King Zhuge Wuling and other loyal ministers in his mind, and then slowly opened his eyes, with a look of compassion in his eyes.

"Does His Majesty the King and the First Grand Master know that His Majesty Ju'er Khan will leave Tianzhu in June next year at the most?"

Rajyapala and Master Baotongzi looked at each other, wondering what Fanshun wanted to do by saying this? Finally, Master Baotongzi asked.

"Since Ju'er Khan has conquered the Xiaxi Kingdom, why did he still retreat? The land's natural resources are excellent, so why should they be better than those in Huwen City?"

Although he stayed in the lower reaches of the Ganges River, Master Baotongzi actually had some knowledge. He knew about the grievances between Xia Xiguo and Huwen City, and he could probably guess where Ju'er Khan came from.

Fanshun slowly shook his head, "The first master thought that Ju'er Khan only protected Wencheng and other places. If so, how could he be called Ju'er Khan?

That’s ridiculous! His Majesty Ju’er Khan actually owns the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty, Hexi, Anxi, Khotan, Shule, Broken Leaf in the River, Pakhanna and Samarkand. The territory is far more than ten thousand miles, and the people under his rule are more than hundreds of millions!

Xia Xi is a small country. If he had not attacked and harassed Huwen City several times, the Great Khan would not have led his troops to conquer it.

Now that it has been pacified, we can just take the king and his concubine back to Samarkand to punish her. How can she stay here forever? Alas!"

After Fanshun finished speaking, he let out another long sigh, making the two of them even more confused.

When Fanshun said that Ju'er Khan was going to return to the north, Rajyapala's thoughts became more vivid. If Ju'er Khan really had such a large empire and looked down on the Xiaxi Kingdom and was too lazy to rule it himself, that would be the case. Believable.

"Why is the deputy envoy always sighing and sighing? If you have anything to say from your heart, you might as well say it freely!" Rajyapala began to persuade.

"Okay! I will make an exception today if I can come to this holy land of the Buddhist Kingdom. If I can save the Nalanda Temple, the head of thousands of garlands, I will finally have a great merit."

Fanshun clenched his fist tightly, as if he had made great determination.

"Your Majesty, the first master, Fan has believed in Buddhism since he was a child, and his family is even more pious. He has always thought that the land of Tianzhu is the Buddhist country on earth, and he has truly longed for it.

But when I arrived, I realized that the Dharma in the ancestral land of the Buddha in Zhu today is declining, the believers are scattered, and the monks are being bullied. There is a hint of collapse!"

Rajyapala's face turned dark, and Master Baotongzi was even more ashamed.

Yes! Believers outside Tianzhu still think that Buddhism is still as prosperous as before in Tianzhu. In the past, Nalanda Temple alone had tens of thousands of monks, dozens of monasteries, and more than a hundred Dharma preaching podiums. Those who came here came here because of their fame. Thousands of miles away.

Not only did he teach doctrinal classics, he also taught astronomy, mathematics, and medical knowledge.

Nalanda Temple is not only a sacred place for Buddha, it can also be called the light of civilization in India. However, such a Buddhist kingdom on earth no longer exists.

"Your Majesty and your Majesty may have discovered that Guo Zhengshi is not a follower of Buddha, but is actually a follower of Daqin Dharma (Nestorianism).

Thousands of his comrades surrounded Juer Khan day and night, and all they said was to persuade His Majesty Juer Khan to abandon the Buddha and convert to Araha."

"That's it! Why is this Guo Zhengshi so arrogant? There is such a reason."

Master Baotongzi's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed something. It seemed that the struggle between Buddhism and Daqin's Dharma in the court of Ju'er Khan was already very fierce.

"Fortunately, His Majesty the Great Khan is surrounded by thousands of followers of the Buddha. This time the Great Khan sent an envoy here, in fact, he hopes that after punishing the Balihar Kingdom, he can go to Nalanda Temple and pay homage to the Buddha's teachings. land.

If His Majesty the King lets us go back like this, the people of Da Qin Dharma may vigorously slander His Majesty and the First Grand Master.

If one day the Great Khan converts, the most powerful supporter of the Buddha outside of India, he will cease to exist."

The message that Fanshun strongly outputs is nothing more than two points. First, although Juerhan's belief is firm at present, it may also change.

Second, Buddhism in Tianzhu is declining, and strong foreign aid must be provided, otherwise the overthrow is not far away.

Now, it depends on whether the two people in front of him can fall into the trap.
