"More than a hundred years ago, a traveling monk with a profound cultivation set foot in this temple. That night, the Buddhist temple suddenly showed a golden light and it lasted until midnight. The monk and the old monk in the temple said that there was a Buddhist connection in Jinshan Temple, and that a great master and earth-shaking monk would definitely come out in the future, so he decided to stay here. The old monk in the temple naturally welcomed him, and the monk stayed in the temple and entered my Jinshan Temple and changed his name to Faming." Zen Master Haishi continued.
"Elder Faming!" Chen Luo's eyes moved. Lu Huaming had told him about this person before. It turned out that this person had such a origin.
"The Patriarch Faming has a high level of cultivation. After entering this temple, the original old abbot quickly gave him the position of presidency. After the Elder Faming took power, he strongly supported his fellow disciples and spread the Buddhist teachings he practiced to everyone. This temple was then resurrected. The Patriarch Faming had the virtue of recreation in this temple, and everyone in the temple admired him, but he did not accept disciples, saying that he had no chance, which disappointed many people in the temple. It was not until more than ten years after the Patriarch entered the temple, one day he was playing the piano at the foot of the mountain, and suddenly heard the sound of the baby crying. A wooden basin drifted from the river at the foot of the mountain, and a baby and a blood book were placed in the basin. The ancestor rescued him ashore, and only after seeing the blood book did he know his origin. It turned out to be the posthumous son of Chen Guangrui, the top scholar in Liuzhou, so he took his nickname Jiang Liuer, raised him and accepted him as a disciple." Zen Master Haishi said.
"This person is Master Xuanzang." Lu Huaming said after hearing this for a long time, his expression gradually became focused and no longer anxious.
Chen Luo suddenly realized that Master Xuanzang's name had already spread throughout the world, but he only knew about Master Xuanzang's search for the Western scriptures, but he knew the origin of his uncle. It turned out that he was born like this.
"Yes, just as Elder Faming said in his early years, Master Xuanzang later entered Chang'an and was named the Imperial Brother by Emperor Taizong. After fearing the danger of going to the West, he went to the West after 72 difficulties to retrieve the true scriptures. Only then did my Jinshan Temple become famous all over the world, and it was the reputation of today." Zen Master Haishi glanced at Lu Huaming, nodded, and then continued.
"Zen Master Haishi, you took the initiative to interrupt. According to the time when Master Xuanzang went to the West to seek the sutra, you must have seen him, right?" Chen Luo suddenly interrupted and asked.
"When I entered the temple, Master Xuanzang had already gone to the West to seek scriptures. However, when he returned to Jinshan Temple, he and I met him. Master Xuanzang once told the monks in the temple some experiences of going to Lingshan. The story of obtaining scriptures in the West that spread throughout the world was spread from Jinshan Temple." Zen Master Haishi glanced at Shen Luo and nodded.
"When Master Xuanzang told about his experience in obtaining the scriptures, did he mention a woman with the plum blossom mark and a monk from the Western Regions?" Chen Luo immediately asked again.
"The woman with a wristband and plum blossom mark? Master Xuanzang is a Buddhist. He rarely mentions women on the road to the West. As for the many Buddhist countries in the Western Regions, Master Xuanzang has said some monks he met on the road. I wonder which monk the donor is talking about?" Zen Master Haishi asked in surprise.
Lu Huaming was also surprised that Chen Luo suddenly asked about this and looked at Chen Luo.
"This person should be filled with demonic energy, which caused great trouble for Master Xuanzang to go west to seek Buddhist scriptures." Chen Luo hesitated for a moment and said.
"A monk who is contaminated with demonic energy? I have never heard from Master Xuanzang about this." Zen Master Haishi thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Is that true..." Chen Luo looked disappointed and thought to himself, could it be that Master Xuanzang and his party had never encountered the five reincarnated demon souls when they visited the scriptures?
"Oh, when the donor talks about the demonic energy, I remember something. Master Xuanzang said something. When they passed by the Wuji Kingdom in the Western Regions, his eldest disciple once felt a strong demonic energy." Zen Master Haishi's gray eyebrows suddenly moved and he said.
"Oh, where did Master Xuanzang encounter this demonic energy? How did he later?" Chen Luo's eyes lit up and he immediately asked.
"Master Xuanzang did not explain this matter in detail, but only mentioned it slightly, because there were countless monsters encountered on the way west, but the demonic energy rarely felt it. The powerful demonic energy made him feel a little uneasy, and told me to be careful of demonic matters in the future." Zen Master Haishi said.
He let out a sigh of relief, his eyes flashed, and he stopped talking.
"Elder Hai Shi, I have something to ask about. Master Xuanzang mysteriously disappeared shortly after returning from the Buddhist scriptures. Do you know what's going on? People in the world say they have been reincarnated. Is that true?" Lu Huaming, who was standing beside him, also asked.
"We don't understand this. Master Xuanzang returned from his journey to the scriptures and handed over his majesty the work, then returned to Jinshan Temple to practice. But soon he suddenly disappeared. The monks in this temple were looking for it in many places, but there was no clue." Zen Master Haishi shook his head and said.
"Since that's the case, why is there any statement that he has been reincarnated?" Lu Huaming said strangely.
"Short after Master Xuanzang disappeared, the old monk took over as the presidency. The old monk practiced the slaughter Zen, which was about being clear-hearted and few desires. He often went to places where people rarely visited to sit and practice. Once, when he was practicing at the river at the foot of the mountain, a wooden basin drifted along the water, and there were two babies in swaddling clothes on it." Zen Master Haishi continued.
"Oh, two more babies are floating?" Lu Huaming's eyes were filled with surprise.
"These two are Jiang Liu and Chan'er. At that time, there was a string of Buddhist beads hanging around Jiang Liu's neck. I had listened to Master Xuanzang's teachings in person and recognized that the string of Buddhist beads was the Buddhist beads worn by Master Xuanzang. Everyone in the temple thought that he was the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, and even gave him the common name of Jin Chanzi in his previous life." Zen Master Haishi continued.
"So that's it. The saying that the reincarnation of the golden cicada came from here." Lu Huaming nodded slowly.
Chen Luo ignored the others. He heard that Zen Master Haishi finally talked about Jiang Liu, and his eyes suddenly condensed.
"How did you do it later?" he asked.
"After Jiang Liu was a little older, he realized the Buddhist principles and bloomed lotus flowers at the Dharma Assembly. He never participated in the sutra debate in the temple. Although he was very familiar with the affairs of Jin Chanzi, he was not as good as Master Jin Chan. He was arrogant and domineering, and he liked luxury and enjoyment. Most of the magnificent buildings in the temple were forced to rectify." Zen Master Hai Shi sighed.
"Zen Master Haishi, you are the host of Jinshan Temple. Why do you allow the river to make trouble? Jinshan Temple has become like this now, which will definitely attract a lot of criticism. Moreover, I see that many monks in the temple are frivolous and restless, proud and arrogant, as if they are imitating the river. If this continues, it will be very unfavorable to Jinshan Temple." Lu Huaming said.
"Jiang Liu Daoshi is profound and has a strong temperament. With his identity as the reincarnation of Jin Chan, most of the elders in the temple highly respect him and obey his words. Although I am the host, I can no longer restrain him." Zen Master Haishi said.
After hearing this, Lu Huaming couldn't help but be speechless.
"Zen Master Haishi, is the reason why Master Jiang Liu is unwilling to go to Chang'an is related to his temperament?" Chen Luo heard that Zen Master Haishi said that until now, he never mentioned the reason why Master Jiang Liu refused to go to Chang'an, and couldn't help asking.
