Chapter 0817 Journey to the West begins, Jin Chan is calculated
Early the next morning, hundreds of officials gathered outside the west gate of Chang'an City, and the current emperor, Tang Taizong, walked out with Jin Chanzi in hand.
As the two of them walked, Li Shimin began to give instructions to Jin Chanzi: "Brother, this trip to the west is extremely difficult. This is another customs clearance document for you. When you arrive in every country, take this thing out and report it."
I am my Imperial Disciple of the Tang Dynasty, so I believe that people from those countries will not embarrass my Imperial Disciple!"
"There is a little bit of softness here. Although my dear brother, you are a monk, you can still be useful along the way. I specially ordered someone to build the saddle. Remember not to reveal your wealth, and hide it under the saddle!"
"This is a steed, named Yezhao Jade Lion. It is the heir of Zhao Zilong's mount during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Once in danger, my younger brother would ride on it and escape quickly, traveling thousands of miles in a day!"
"..."
Listening to the words spoken by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Jin Chanzi couldn't help but nodded heavily, clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, your Majesty, don't worry, Xuanzang will definitely retrieve the true scriptures during this trip and benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty."
Hearing this, Tang Taizong's face suddenly showed a knowing smile, he clapped his hands, and immediately someone came forward with a wine glass.
Reaching out to pick up the wine glass, Tang Taizong handed one of the glasses of wine to Jin Chanzi and said: "Brother Yu, I know that your Buddhist sect has a precept to abstain from drinking, but today is the time when you are leaving, but this glass of wine is necessary no matter what."
Drink, this is not just a glass of wine, but the practice of the people of Chang'an towards you!"
Hearing this, Jin Chanzi glanced at the wine glass in front of him, stretched out his hand to take the wine glass, and said: "In this case, that poor monk is more respectful than obeying his orders."
After saying that, Jin Chanzi just raised his head and drank a glass of wine without any hesitation. Tang Taizong was stunned for a moment.
After all, it is an iron rule for monks to abstain from alcohol, so what Jin Chanzi did was really too embarrassing for him.
Involuntarily, a trace of complexity flashed across Tang Taizong's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination, and he said: "Okay, my dear brother, be careful along the way!"
After saying that, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty drank the wine in his hand and said: "All the officials obey your orders and respectfully send me off to the west!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials around him, and even the people of Chang'an City bowed and saluted, and said, "Farewell to Master Xuanzang!"
In response, Jin Chanzi nodded, turned over and rode on the Yuzhaoye Lion, clamped his legs, and said: "Let's go!"
In an instant, the Yezhao Jade Lion flew up, carrying a cloud of dust, and left quickly, not even taking along the guards Li Shimin had arranged for him.
Watching Jin Chanzi leave, the smile on Tang Taizong's face gradually faded. Next to him, Xu Maogong slowly walked forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's done!"
Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Tang Taizong's eyes, and he said: "Mr. Mao, you can send a message to the immortals of Tianren Sect. I have completed what they told me. I hope they will keep their promise and teach me the method of cultivation."
.”
After saying that, Tang Taizong turned around, got on the sedan, and started towards the palace with the support of civil and military officials.
…
Speaking of Jin Chanzi, after leaving Chang'an, he immediately galloped towards the meeting point Zhu Tianpeng mentioned yesterday.
But as time passed, Jin Chanzi realized something was wrong.
An evil fire surged up in his lower abdomen, and his body temperature increased at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if he was under the scorching sun, breathing rapidly, and looking at the surrounding path with his eyes, he became a little confused.
In a daze, Jin Chanzi passed out, lying on the back of the lion with Yu Zhaoye, and kept running.
At the same time, in mid-air, figures appeared quietly.
I saw these people wearing Taoist robes, holding whisks, each with an immortal air, but with a proud smile on their face.
Seeing the Jade Zhaoye Lion galloping on the avenue below and the golden cicada on its back, one of them had a trace of ridicule in his eyes, and said with a ferocious smile: "Student, I want to see what this Buddhist practitioner does after breaking the precepts."
What would a person be like?"
"The first is to abstain from killing, the second is to abstain from stealing, the third is to abstain from sexual intercourse, the fourth is to tell lies, the fifth is to abstain from drinking alcohol, the sixth is to wear incense, the seventh is to sit and lie down on a high bed, the eighth is to eat out of season, the golden cicada just now has been drinking, and the wine
He has already been given Hehuan Powder and has broken the precepts one after another. This sutra seeker must have an unstable heart. When the time comes, we will use the secret technique of Xuanyin to induce him to break the other six precepts. Then the sect master will definitely reward us greatly."
"Even if this matter is investigated, it will only be traced to Tang Taizong at most. It has nothing to do with us at all. The Western Church will only suffer a loss this time."
Obviously, these people are plotting against Jin Chanzi.
Moreover, the calculation was very vicious, not only to break Jin Chanzi's Taoist heart, but also to destroy the Western religion's journey to the west.
The most important thing is that the time and place they chose were extremely subtle. Jin Chanzi left the city before he arrived at the Two Realms Mountains and had not rescued Sun Wukong. The guardians of the Western Sect had already left. This was an opportunity that could be taken advantage of.
when.
At this moment, one of these Taoists looked down and discovered that on the avenue, a jade lion was galloping in the night light, but the golden cicada on its back was nowhere to be found. He was immediately surprised and said:
"Hey, where's the golden cicada!"
As soon as these words came out, the Taoists beside him immediately came back to their senses, and without caring about anything else, Jiayun chased after him.
Soon, the group of people caught up with Yuzhaoye Lion, but Jin Chanzi was nowhere to be found. In an instant, the faces of several people turned gloomy.
I thought it was a sure thing, but now Jin Chanzi is missing, which makes several people furious.
After a while, one of the Taoists became furious and punched out. With the surge of magic power, he directly leveled a mountain to the ground. He roared angrily: "Damn it, who is it? Who dares to do anything bad?"
The plan of the Taoists!"
As this man finished speaking, several Taoists beside him also looked ugly.
They had been planning for so long and were about to succeed. Now Jin Chanzi disappeared under their noses. This was simply a slap in the face.
Immediately afterwards, one of them seemed to have thought of something, and immediately started calculating with his fingers.
After about an hour of burning incense, the man stopped his calculations and said with a pale expression: "Damn it, the journey to the West has begun, the heavens are in chaos, and I can't calculate where Jin Chanzi is."
Hearing this, the faces of the Taoists beside him became even more livid. After looking at each other, one of them said, "Fellow Taoists, what should we do next?"
In response to this, one of the leading Taoists pondered for a moment, and then said: "Let's go to Liangjie Mountain. No matter who takes that Jin Chanzi away, he will definitely go to Liangjie Mountain to find Sun Monkey!"
As soon as these words came out, he immediately aroused the approval of several Taoists around him. Immediately, the group hurriedly flew in the direction of Liangjie Mountain in the clouds.
