As soon as Su Chen walked in, he was ready to say hello to His Majesty Li Er, but was attracted by a dazzling light.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a shiny head.
The owner of the head is a man in coarse linen clothes, with his eyes closed and a plain look on his face, chanting something, and constantly turning the beads in his hand.
Without thinking too much, Su Chen knew the identity of this bald man. He was definitely Xuanzang!
Yes, Lao Li's efficiency is so high that he found it so quickly.
Su Chen looked at Xuanzang with satisfaction and gave His Majesty Li Er a thumbs up in his heart.
Seeing Su Chen come in, His Majesty Li Er said: "I have found a man for you. You can talk to him yourself about the arrangements you have planned."
After saying that, His Majesty Li Er sat aside and drank tea leisurely.
As soon as Xuanzang arrived at the imperial study, His Majesty Li Er grabbed him and asked him many questions, but he did not find any useful information.
This is a plain, ordinary monk. Why does Su Chen want him by name?
This made His Majesty Li Er very confused.
"The young monk has seen the Lord Protector!"
Xuanzang saluted Su Chen.
When Xuanzang learned that His Majesty Li Er summoned him because the Lord Protector was looking for him, he felt very uneasy.
Although he was somewhat famous among Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty, he was not worthy of such a solemn summons from the Lord Protector.
During this time, he had been feeling uneasy.
Because the standard with which he was treated was so grand!
First, a special car rushed to receive it without stopping, and Baiqisi secretly protected him. Even the daily meals were pretty good.
In this way, with all kinds of inexplicable preferential treatment, Xuanzang came all the way from Luozhou to
He was a little confused as to why Su Chen mentioned Xuanzang's name specifically.
I don't even understand the arrogance on Su Chen's face.
Xuanzang had just spent the night resting in Honglu Temple, and the next day he was directly summoned by the Emperor!
What an honor it is for me to actually meet the current Holy One directly!
When Xuanzang heard that it was the Lord Protector who wanted to see him by name, Xuanzang became confused.
According to what His Majesty Li Er said, it seemed that the Protector had arranged something important for him to handle, so he was looking for him so eagerly.
Then Xuanzang was completely confused.
It seems that I have never had any connection with the Protector, so how can I be worthy of such an important task?
Due to his high concentration of energy, Xuanzang's muscles are now somewhat stiff, and he recited Buddhist sutras just to relax his mind.
Seeing a small layer of sweat forming on Monk Xuanzang's forehead, Su Chen said kindly: "Yes, I do have a task to give you when I come to you this time, but you don't have to worry too much."
"Master, do you know anything about Buddhism in Tianzhu?"
While talking, Su Chen carefully talked about this famous monk.
He found that the monk who was the prototype of "Tang Monk" seemed to be... just an ordinary monk with a popular face. How could he be worthy of being remembered by so many female fairies in "Journey to the West"?
However, although Xuanzang looks a bit ordinary, his Buddhist temperament is indeed quite eye-catching, and he is worthy of being a successful monk in the future!
"The young monk has never been to Tianzhu, so he has only heard of their Buddhism but not seen it."
Xuanzang continued cautiously: "According to what I heard, the Buddhist teachings in Tianzhu are extremely profound, so the young monk once had the idea of going to Tianzhu to see if he could obtain Buddhist scriptures, so as to improve our work in the Tang Dynasty.
Buddhist scriptures.”
Hearing this, Su Chen immediately became interested.
Xuanzang actually had the idea of going to Tianzhu already. This was like giving him a pillow if he wanted to sleep!
And when His Majesty Li Er heard that Xuanzang actually had the idea of going to Tianzhu, he felt very strange.
Is there such a coincidence in the world?
Su Chen and Xuanzang gradually had no contact or connection. It is really worth pondering that the two people can have similar thoughts.
Could this kid really be able to read minds and predict the future?
Although His Majesty Li Er is almost used to Su Chen's prophecy, he is still very curious about how Su Chen did it.
I must let this guy explain it carefully in a while.
His Majesty Li Er had already made up his mind and sat there drinking tea alone.
On the side, Su Chen also saw some of His Majesty Li Er's thoughts, so he came up with the words he had prepared all morning.
"I had heard about you before in Wannian County, saying that Master Xuanzang might be planning to go to Tianzhu to collect Buddhist scriptures, so I asked your Majesty to call you for questioning. I didn't expect it to be true."
"It just so happens that Your Majesty and I have a big plan recently, which may require the cooperation of a mage."
Hearing this, Xuanzang definitely had not won over Su Chen, but His Majesty Li Er believed it.
Elder Su Chen had predicted the change of dynasties before, so it became reasonable to know that Xuanzang wanted to go to Tianzhu.
"Please tell me, Lord Protector. If there is anything I can do to help you, young monk, I will be happy to help you."
Xuanzang said quickly.
"Okay, His Majesty and I have this plan..."
Immediately, Su Chen explained his plan to control religious beliefs to Xuanzang.
After listening to this, Xuanzang felt that his three views were on the verge of being broken.
In his mind, Tianzhu was a giant empire that could compete with the Tang Dynasty, but why was it as easy as killing an ant in the words of the Protector.
And looking at His Majesty Li Er on the side, it seems that even His Majesty feels the same way!
In the past, when Xuanzang heard the story about Su Chen, the protector of the country, he did not believe it too much and thought it was an exaggeration.
But after having a face-to-face contact with Su Chen, he realized that it turned out that he was too small!
There really are immortal-level people in this world who can turn their hands into clouds and turn their hands into rain!
Seeing that Xuanzang was in a daze, Su Chen asked, "Do you know what I mean?"
Hearing this, Xuanzang immediately came to his senses and responded quickly.
"Xiao Monk understands, it's just..."
"The young monk is worried that he is not capable enough to take on such an important task. If he fails to live up to the expectations of His Majesty and the Lord Protector..."
Before Xuanzang could finish his evasive words, he was interrupted by Su Chen waving his hand.
"You don't have to worry too much. This matter is not as difficult as you think. You just need to concentrate on studying the Buddhist teachings of Tianzhu when the time comes, and then make a name for yourself."
"As for the rest of the work, I will arrange for others to do it, and you still have enough time. It will start in about a year."
