Chapter 958: Counting on others is not enough, we can only do it ourselves
Just when Monk Zhiwei and Old Monk Zhiyue came together again to the door of the best monastery in Yunjing Temple, and planned to knock on the door to enter, they heard a burst of laughter coming from the courtyard.
"Hahaha……"
"master……"
After hearing the laughter, Monk Zhiwei and Monk Zhiyue looked at each other, then opened the door and entered, bowing to a certain handsome old monk who still had a smile on his face.
"I wonder why you are so happy today?"
"Zhiwei...and Zhiyue, you are back, come and sit here!"
The initiation monk raised his head, smiled and waved to his beloved disciple and the monk Zhiyue behind him, and then after the two of them sat down, the initiation monk spoke again.
"Today at the Chongxuan Office, after the candidates for the Ten Great Virtues were finalized, Monk Zhishi from the Dilun Sect actually made a suggestion that made people laugh. Even thinking about it now makes me laugh!"
"oh!"
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, the monk Zhiwei immediately came up with a compliment about his good cultivation and asked a question.
"Master, I don't know what the suggestion is, so funny?"
"He actually proposed to let Li Shimin's idiot publicly lead the officials to worship the ten great virtues at the canonization ceremony of the ten great virtues..."
The initiation monk said with a smile.
"Do you think this is ridiculous?"
"..."
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, both Monk Hengjiang Zhiwei and Monk Hajiang Zhiyue showed the same expression as Master Shi Sengyan after hearing the news.
Just kidding!
This Zhishi monk actually plans to ask Ziweixing Lord Li Shimin to worship the Ten Great Virtues... Is he stupid? He can make such suggestions that are obviously troubling and pulling out the tiger's beard.
"This... wasn't it Li Shimin's Hu'er who was destroying Buddha before?"
Monk Zhiwei asked with some confusion.
"Is Monk Zhishi crazy for asking an emperor who seeks trouble to destroy the Buddha to worship the monk? Master, didn't you stop him from seeking death?"
"On the contrary!"
After hearing the words of his beloved disciple, a smile suddenly appeared on the face of the initiation monk.
"Not only did the old monk not stop him, but he fully supported his idea. Now the seal from the Chongxuan Department should have been placed on Li Shimin's desk!"
"ah……"
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, the old monk Zhiyue on the side was a little puzzled.
"Uncle Master, since you know that the other party's suggestion is ridiculous, why do you still support him?"
"hehe!"
The initiation monk smiled and then spoke slowly.
"Old monk, of course I want to support you. I don't want these Buddhist sects in the north to do anything that would make Li Shimin angry. How can they sincerely support our Fahua Sect, just because everyone is of the same Buddhist lineage?"
"oh!"
When they heard the monk's unabashed words that he was going to send Buddhist monks to the north to be stabbed, both monks Zhiwei and Zhiyue looked like they were suddenly enlightened.
"Master (Uncle Master) is indeed brilliant!"
"Haha... this is just a casual move!"
The initiation monk waved his hand casually and then asked.
"By the way, you two went to see Shi Sengyan of the Lian Sect today. How did he reply to you?"
"Report to Master!"
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, Monk Zhiwei immediately leaned forward and answered.
"Shi Sengyan told me and Brother Zhiyue that he had previously rescued the two orchids who had practiced the "Chantan Gandharva Transformation Sutra", but he was just acting out of righteousness. He was not very familiar with the two orchids. Moreover, He left after rescuing people, so he doesn't know exactly where the two Hu Ji are now!"
"oh!"
After Monk Zhiwei finished speaking, Monk Enlightenment frowned slightly.
"Is that true?"
"It should be true!"
Monk Zhiyue on the other side also explained.
"I can also feel from Shi Sengyan's words that he has no intention of getting involved in the Chantan Gandharva Sutra. In fact, I even feel that he is not interested in the "Explanation of the Lotus Sutra". It’s bigger than the Chantan Gandharva Transfiguration Sutra, because when Junior Brother Zhiwei and I were chatting with him, he was always asking about the subtle meaning of the Lotus Sutra..."
"The old monk has heard this news before!"
After hearing Zhiyue's explanation, the initiation monk nodded slightly.
"It is said that although Seng Yan is a disciple of the Lotus Sect, he has a special liking for the Lotus Sutra and recites it non-stop every day. He has recited it thousands of times now... Well! So it seems that this It really has nothing to do with him!"
Having said this, the initiation monk pondered for a moment and then asked.
"By the way, where are the two Hu Ji who practiced the "Chantan Gandharva Transformation Sutra" now? Have you found them?"
"There are some clues..."
Monk Zhiwei continued.
"It seems that the two Hu Ji came to Chang'an from the Western Regions to find the sacred object Zihuang Jie in their tribe. It is said that this object was stolen by someone from Kong Kong Jingjing and handed over to a person next to Kong Kong'er. Female companion...so the disciple thinks that the two of them should be lurking near Kong Kong'er."
"Uncle Master!"
Monk Zhiyue on the side also continued.
"Isn't Kong Kong Jing Jing capable of anything if he has money? Then can we pay to ask Kong Kong'er for a favor..."
After hearing their words, the initiation monk pondered for a moment, and then slowly shook his head.
"No...Although Kong Kong Jing Jing is an organization that uses money to eliminate disasters, Kong Kong'er is unpredictable and moody. The old monk is worried that telling him will endanger the lives of the two Hu Ji, which will lead to the last book What happened to the Eight Parts of the Dragon Achievement Sutra?"
Having said this, the initiation monk thought about it carefully and then said.
"It's up to you to wait for this matter..."
Before the initiation monk could finish his words, he suddenly heard the voice of the current abbot of Yunjing Temple from outside, that is, monk Hui Hao, who had been eliminated by Fu Yi and Kong Qing together but could not be solved.
"To the great monk who initiated the initiation, a woman outside the door just now sent a letter, naming her by name and saying that she wanted to deliver it to you, the great monk!"
"oh!"
The initiation monk stopped what he said before and raised his head in confusion.
"A woman is sending a letter to an old monk...it's strange! Huizhen, please bring the letter in!"
"yes!"
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, the monk Huizhen outside the door agreed, then came in with a letter in his hand with a respectful expression, and raised it towards the initiation monk.
"This is it, great monk, please!"
"Thank you!"
The initiation monk nodded and smiled at the monk Huizhen, then reached out to take the letter from the other person's hand, tore it open in front of them, and took out the letter.
"Oh...it turns out it was sent by Master Zhanran's disciple...what?"
After reading a few lines of words, the face of the initiation monk who was originally calm and composed suddenly changed color, and his body suddenly stood up.
"Master Zhanran was actually killed by Kong Kong'er...this...where do you start talking about this?"
"What?"
After hearing the news, Monk Zhiwei and Monk Zhiyue, who were not aware at all, were instantly confused.
"Yinniang was actually taken over by Kong Kong'er... We invited both of them to come from the Taishi Bureau..."
"Zhiwei, calm down!"
Before Monk Zhiwei could finish what he blurted out, he saw that the Initiation Monk had scolded him sternly. Then the Initiation Monk turned his head and tried his best to look gentle, facing the confused man standing aside.
Monk Huizhen said.
"This man has passed away. It's really... Huizhen. The old monk is so confused right now that I won't leave you here. Go and do your work!"
"Ah...yes!"
After hearing the words of the initiation monk, Huizhen realized what he was saying and hurriedly saluted to him.
"The poor monk will leave first..."
Looking at the retreating figure of Monk Huizhen, Monk Zhiwei continued what he had just said.
"Master, aren't Yinniang and Kong Kong'er the ones we invited to retrieve the "Eight Parts of Tianlong Achievement Sutra" from Yunzhong City of the Taishi Bureau? Why did the two of them start fighting each other?"
"well……"
After hearing these words, the initiation monk suddenly let out a long sigh.
"According to what Zhan Ran's disciple said in the letter, the previous Jing Jing'er before Kong Kong Jingjing died at the hands of Zhan Ran, so this time Kong Kong'er killed him directly after meeting Zhan Ran..."
"its not right!"
Monk Zhiyue frowned and continued.
"Don't Kong Kong Jingjing always claim that as long as there is no money, they will turn a blind eye even to the murder of his father and his enemies, but as long as it is a wealthy business, even brothers will be killed for you? Why is Kong Kong'er because of Jingjing?
Where is Yinniang angry about your son's death?"
"That's why the old monk said just now that Kong Kong'er's temperament is unpredictable and moody..."
The initiation monk looked at the letter in his hand with a look of regret and shook his head gently.
"This matter is the old monk's miscalculation. It's so painful!"
"Master!"
Monk Zhiwei looked at the sad old monk in front of him and asked cautiously.
"Now that Yinniang is dead, Kong Kong'er must not be intact. So what should we do about obtaining the "Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon Achievement Sutra" from Qingwei?"
"Um……"
The initiation monk let out a long breath.
"It seems that you can't count on others. In the end, we have to take action ourselves!"
…
"These thieves are so brave!"
Just as the initiation monk was discussing the next action with Hengha Erjiang, Li Shimin, who was in the hall, was furious and threw a watch in his hand on the ground of the hall.
"How dare you let me, the destined emperor, Lord Ziweixing, take all the civil and military officials to worship the ten great virtues? Do they want to ride on my head and dominate me?"
The next moment, Li Shimin, still angry, turned to look at a chamberlain in the corner of the palace.
"You...go to Zhongshu Province now and find me Xuanling, Ruhui and the auxiliary machines. Go quickly!"
