With Master Hongdao¡¯s agreement, Xuansheng put his hands together and said, ¡°Thank you, senior brother.¡±
Guangfa and Guangzhen also said: "Thank you, Master Hongdao."
Xuan Sheng said to Zhao Ran again: "I have a heartless request, and I hope the envoy will approve it. Please let me pay my respects to Senior Brother Xuanci."
This is to see the meaning of Xuanci Hongti. Returning the Xuanci Hong Body was the only mission of Zhao Ran's trip, but how to return it and when to officially return it, Zhao Ran had already discussed a specific process with Tianlongyuan through Mingjue.
Xuanci Hongti will be officially unveiled at the Tianlongyuan Dharma Assembly. It will not go through a second hand during the process. It will be put into the altar for worship after being taken out. This is respect for the nirvana monk, the Tianlongyuan Dharma Assembly, and the entire Buddhism. respect.
" It was against the agreement reached with Buddhism to casually announce it to others on the road. What's more, he hadn't received compensation from Buddhism yet, so taking it out at this time was against the rules. But the request was made by Xuanci's relatives, a junior brother and two apprentices, which was reasonable.
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment and turned to look at Hongdao. This is an internal matter within your Buddhist sect. You can discuss it yourself. Anyway, there is no benefit to be gained. Xuanci's rainbow body cannot be easily shown to you.
Hongdao shook his head gently and signaled Xuan Sheng not to do this: "Junior Brother Xuan Sheng, why are you in a hurry? When we get to Tianlong Courtyard, we will naturally see you at the Dafa Ceremony."
But Xuansheng insisted: "I also know that Tianlongyuan has already planned this, but after all, this is Senior Brother Poor Monk. If we can meet him as soon as possible, Poor Monk and these two nephews can also feel at ease soon."
"This" Hongdao was very embarrassed and turned to look at Zhao Ran again.
Zhao Ran thought for a while and decided to help the old monk Hongdao solve the problem. He knew this old monk quite well, so he respected him very much. It would be good to have a good relationship with him, so he said: "Tianlongyuan has an agreement that Master Xuanci's rainbow body is not allowed to be shown in front of others before the Dharma Assembly. Therefore, Neither Master Xiaodao nor Master Hongdao can do anything about it. However, there is also a way to consider, which is to replace Master Xuanci¡¯s rainbow body with a relic. A few masters can worship the relic and fulfill their wishes a little. I don¡¯t know what?¡±
Of course this is possible, Xuan Sheng immediately asked: "Didn't you say that my senior brother's golden Arhat tower and cassock have been damaged?"
The two Buddhist treasures used by Master Xuanci are not among the items to be returned. The reason given by Taoism is that they have been damaged. Xuansheng didn't know whether it was damaged or not, but he knew that according to the usual practice, it would be difficult to get it back. The only thing the Taoist sect agreed to return this time was this rainbow body, and the magic weapons and weapons used by Xuanci were not included in it.
Zhao Ran said: "It is true that the Golden Arhat Pagoda and the cassock have been damaged. There is nothing false about this. However, I still have a relic here. It is not a magic weapon, does not contain magic power, and does not come from Master Xuanci, but it is destined to Master Xuanci. It is the source of the master¡¯s nirvana.¡±
So, he told the story of Xuanci's sudden enlightenment after seeing the Golden Bowl and his nirvana.
After Zhao Ran finished speaking, Xuan Sheng, Guang Fa, and Guang Zhen all bowed and clasped their hands to him: "Thank you so much, distinguished envoy." This was to thank Zhao Ran for helping Xuan Ci achieve nirvana. But Zhao Ran didn't expect the other party to really thank him. He was one of the accomplices who "besieged and killed" Xuan Ci. From his true heart, although he was "destined", he had "bad intentions".
Xuansheng added: "If my senior brother really achieves nirvana because of seeing this golden bowl, then he really deserves to pay homage to it."
Hongdao on the side was also very curious: "If this is indeed the case, it will be a great blessing for our Buddhist sect. Please show this thing to your distinguished envoy."
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Zhao Ran took out the golden bowl and held it in his hand. After Xuanci ascended to the throne, Zhang Laodao had no clue about this golden bowl. Qingjun once said that since this object was destined to the old monk, he would give it to the old monk. Zhang Laodao then placed the object on Xuanci's knees. Go up and signal Zhao Ran to put it away together and return it when the time comes.
Of course, Zhao Ran will definitely not talk about this old thing at this moment, and he will not explain the ownership of this thing. He just wants to see if he can take advantage of it.
Sure enough, as soon as the golden bowl came out, it immediately attracted the attention of several great monks present. Xuansheng and Hongdao are both eminent Buddhist monks who have reached the top of the Bodhisattva realm. They immediately used Buddhist methods to detect and gain something immediately after observing.
Xuansheng put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, you are destined to be my senior brother."
Hongdao also nodded: "It is indeed the object of Master Xuanci's realization of Nirvana."
Zhang Laodao and Patriarch Long Yang didn't see the clue that day. Qingjun even kept the golden bowl for hundreds of years without knowing what it was. Unexpectedly, these two Buddhist monks could figure out the secret of it after just checking it. It seemed to be Buddhism. caused by the difference between Taoism and Taoism.
Zhao Ran also hesitated a little at this moment, but it was just a matter of passing thought. It still has to be returned. Firstly, it is useless to keep it. Secondly, this is something Zhang Laodao personally ordered. How to return the law??Now it seems that we can discuss it further.
Guangfa and Guangzhen immediately took action, photographed the surrounding stones, and built a mani pile on the spot. Zhao Ran took out a piece of silk and covered it, and placed the golden bowl on top of the mani pile. Then Xuansheng, Hongdao took Guangfa, Guangzhen and other monks to chant sutras and pay homage.
After the rituals were completed, Xuan Sheng and Hong Dao looked at Zhao Ran with reluctance, took back the golden bowl with a smile, and each sighed.
Hongdao asked: "Your envoy just said that this is not a relic of Master Xuanci? But I don't know where it came from?"
Zhao Ran nodded: "This is an old object that has been passed down for hundreds of years in the cave of the Lord of Qingshan. I don't want it to be exactly what Master Xuanci saw, so I can prove it."
Hongdao and Xuansheng were both virtuous and eminent monks in the Bodhisattva realm. They were hesitant and embarrassed to continue asking, but Guangfa couldn't help but asked, "Is this thing included in the return list?"
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t want to talk nonsense, but he also didn¡¯t want to just accept it so easily, so he said, "Haha" and smiled without saying a word.
All the monks were silent and speechless for a long time.
The team continued to move forward and entered Animaqing Pass in the evening. Tianlongyuan has already arranged the itinerary, and will stay in a temple in the mountain pass that night.
This was the first time for Zhang Juzheng to enter the Xia Kingdom, and he seemed very excited. After checking in, he came to find Zhao Ran, and talked a lot with Zhao Ran, nothing more than his views on the Xia army, the Buddhist monks, and the terrain of the Xia Kingdom.
He said a lot, but in Zhao Ran's opinion, it was all a bit vain. It's no wonder. After all, he was a "silly young man" who had just won the lottery. How could he be said to be "talented" without experience? Zhao Ran dealt with it with a smile. On the one hand, he couldn't bear to dampen Zhang Juzheng's enthusiasm. On the other hand, he also looked for opportunities to give a few words of advice. Whether he would listen or not depends on Zhang Juzheng's personal understanding.
After finally sending the over-excited Zhang Juzheng back to his room to rest, and checking the escort sergeant's duty again, Zhao Ran returned to his room and waited slowly.
As expected, as soon as we sat down to have tea, the sergeant on duty came to report that Mingjue had come to see him.
Inviting Mingjue in, Zhao Ran poured him tea. Mingjue took the tea cup but had no intention of drinking it. Instead, he asked: "Taoist Master Zhao, I wonder if the golden bowl of Master Xuanci's nirvana and enlightenment can be included in the return of the relics?" List?"
Zhao Ran took a sip of tea, smiled "haha", and still said nothing.
Mingjue and Zhao Ran had had many confrontations over the return of the rainbow body. They already knew his behavior and knew that he was waiting for him to make an offer, so he said: "This object is not a Buddha treasure and has no magic power at all. Taoism Because it is useless, to the Taoist priest, it is just an ordinary object, and I hope the Taoist priest will part with it."
Zhao Ran said leisurely: "If there is no magic power, how did the two masters detect it? To put it ten thousand steps back, even if there is no magic power, it is not a Buddha treasure, but after all, it is the object of Master Xuanci's enlightenment, and it is quite commemorative value. . It will also be a treasure that will be passed down to future generations."
