Chapter 28 Behind the scenes of gods and Buddhas

The emperor's smile was ferocious, at least that's what Jiang Liu'er thought.

He showed his white teeth and said, "Do you have any dissatisfaction with being the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple?"

Jiang Liuer wanted to say that I was dissatisfied with everything in my body, but in the face of imperial power, he could only shrink back.

"Hey, Your Majesty, I'm just talking casually."

"Well, in that case, let's not waste any time and get tonsured as soon as possible!"

Jiang Liu'er could only sit on the futon without tears, watching the beautiful hair strands go away from her.

The ordained elder chanted various Buddhist precepts while shaving, which made Jiang Liuer almost roll his eyes.

After shaving his forehead, the emperor smiled to his ministers and said, "This head is not bad, and it can judge people. Oh no, if Hunyuan is in trouble, he is born to become a monk."

Jiang Liu'er cursed his mother in his belly, and another consciousness in his belly laughed loudly.

He touched his head and was about to stand up when the elder pressed him down again, almost releasing his nameless fire.

"The six roots are clean and need to be burned with incense. Please be patient, abbot."

What? Do you want some incense?

The hairs all over Jiang Liuer's body stood up. When the first stick of incense was lit on his forehead, it made his skin sizzle. It really made him sweat profusely and he clenched his fists to deal with it.

The emperor smiled and said: "Yes, yes, the six roots of purity are what it is."

Immediately after finishing all the scars, Jiang Liu'er felt that his whole head was going to be blurry. He raised his head and stared at the abbot of the Discipline Academy, keeping it in his mind and thinking about how to put on small shoes for him in the future.

Then, the elders changed Jiang Liuer into the abbot's cassock, put it on him, put on the Five Buddha crowns and Buddhist beads, and stood in front of the Main Hall. Although he had a droopy donkey face, he really looked like that.

thing.

Like a zombie, Jiang Liuer was guided by the elders to carry out all the ceremonies, and finally became the youngest abbot in the history of Daci'en Temple.

Several elders also smiled bitterly when they saw this. Of course they didn't want a scholar who was a common man yesterday to be the abbot, and the person himself didn't want to be an abbot, let alone a monk.

However, with the help of the imperial power, no one could resist and could only allow this extremely absurd thing to happen.

After the emperor finished worshiping the Buddha, he patted Jiang Liu'er on the shoulder and said, "Very good! I look forward to you being a member of the Buddhist sect and carrying forward your knowledge-only theory. This is what the Buddha would like to see!"

Although Jiang Liuer likes to read Buddhist scriptures and likes the idea in Mahayana Buddhism that everyone can become a Buddha, he still cannot purify the six sense organs, let alone become a monk.

Therefore, he could only smile bitterly, send the emperor and his ministers away, then close the temple door and return to the temple amid the pointing and pointing devotees.

Facing the pile of bald donkeys in front of him, Jiang Liuer's mind went blank.

"Then, then who, what are you going to do next?"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger at the abbot of the monastic discipline who had just ordained him, obviously intending to cause trouble.

The abbot of the Discipline Academy smiled bitterly and said: "My dharma name is Xuanming. From now on, senior brother Xuanzang can directly call me brother Xuanming."

"Huh? You call me senior brother? We are two generations apart in age, right?"

Several elders smiled bitterly, obviously knowing that Jiang Liu'er was making fun of them. With him as abbot, the days to come will be a lot of fun.

Fortunately, His Majesty will soon go west to seek Buddhist scriptures. This person has been specially appointed by the emperor and cannot escape this challenge.

The journey to the west is so dangerous, I'm afraid the young abbot may not be able to come back alive, so I'll just have to endure it for a few days.

After the emperor returned to the palace, he was flanked by Prime Minister Gu Tongguang and General Wang Chengsi.

"Does the Prime Minister think that my decision to appoint Yi Shuzi to serve as the abbot of Daci'en Temple is too ridiculous and ridiculous?"

Gu Tongguang nodded slightly and said: "The whole world belongs to your Majesty, and what your Majesty does is naturally for the sake of the common people in the world."

The emperor stopped and looked up at the sky, as if looking at the gods and Buddhas in the sky through the endless distance and billions of causes and effects.

"How powerful are gods and Buddhas?"

The prime minister and the general looked at each other, and the general Wang Chengsi said: "It is absolutely beyond the power of human power to resist."

There was a sarcastic smile on the emperor's lips, "So the laws spoken by gods and Buddhas must not be violated."

Gu Tongguang frowned and used his ability to transmit sounds into secrets to remind: "Your Majesty, be careful! No one here knows which one is the incarnation of the gods and Buddhas!"

General Wang Chengsi also said: "Although I know there is a conspiracy hidden in Journey to the West that we don't know about, but for now, we have to do it."

The emperor sighed and said: "Just because it can improve the chance of becoming an Earth Immortal, it has attracted the support of a large number of noble families and Jianghu sects. Who can really consider our Nanzhan Buzhou."

The prime minister looked behind him, and a group of ministers looked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, we can't stop here. Let's talk as we walk."

The emperor walked forward in silence, only to hear Prime Minister Gu Tongguang ask: "Is there anything special about Jiang Liu'er?"

The emperor smiled and said: "I have always practiced numerology. Although I don't have strong martial arts skills, I can calculate certain causes and effects as long as I spend a certain amount of life.

This person has a great cause and effect related to the journey to the west, and it is a blessing rather than a disaster, so no matter what this time, I will arrange for him to be involved!"

Wang Chengsi asked: "Your Majesty, do you think the journey to the West can be accomplished?"

The emperor looked up at the sky again and said: "If it is impossible, how could Dongsheng Shenzhou and Xiniu Hezhou be so active in promoting this matter? Even Chun Yangzi, the headmaster of Quanzhen Sect, would not hesitate to give up the position of national teacher, haha

, he is also a human immortal on the heavenly list, how can he suffer such humiliation."

Prime Minister Gu Tongguang said: "On the Heavenly List and the Blackboard, more than half of the human beings and immortals are controlled by gods and Buddhas, and some are even clones of gods and Buddhas. They seem to have planned a lot of things since there were emperors and Buddhas in the world."

The emperor nodded, "The human race is becoming increasingly entangled. Now, all hope may lie with the demon race..."



The seventh city, Tingyu Pavilion.

Liu Menghan couldn't help laughing when she heard Zhizunbao talking about what she saw at Da Ci'en Temple today.

"I still have some impressions of the scholar named Jiang Liu'er you mentioned. I really don't know what happened in the imperial examination, but he was actually appointed by the emperor to be the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple."

Zhizunbao said: "I climbed on a big ginkgo tree outside Daci'en Temple today and saw that it was really solemn inside. But among the old monks, there was such a young abbot Jiang Liu'er surrounding me, and I had to call him

Senior brother, I really laughed so much that my stomach hurts, how can such an out-of-the-box person become a monk?"

Liu Menghan and Zhizunbao laughed for a moment, and then said: "This is wrong. The current emperor is proficient in numerology and works hard to govern. He has pushed the country's power to an unprecedented level of prosperity, and the world has surrendered.

It's not like you are a fool, why would you do such a nonsensical thing? I always feel that there should be a deep meaning in it."

Zhizunbao scratched the back of his head and said strangely: "Human beings are really complicated, so what deep meaning can there be? I think Jiang Liu'er might have offended the emperor, so he was punished like this."

"Idiot, if it was punishment, how could he be allowed to become an abbot?

Well, I heard that this generation of scholars will be arranged to go west to obtain Buddhist scriptures. The journey will be difficult and dangerous, and they will have to cross the vast ocean of karma.

All these things make people feel very strange.

It just so happens that I have something important to do and I need to go to my hometown to tell my grandmother about what I saw in my dream. She is also in the west. Do you want to go with me?"
