Journey to the West begins with a full-level Tang monk

Chapter 1279 The So-called Rules

Xuan Yi agreed, then got down and mixed into the official way.

What surprised Tang Seng was that those passers-by were not surprised that a monk came down from the sky.

Instead, he chatted with Xuan Yi with his normal expression.

Tang Seng knew it at the time, and he was sure that these people were well-informed. They have seen this kind of situation a lot, so they will naturally get used to it.

After a long time, Xuan Yi, who made a big circle on the official road below, flew back to the sky again.

"Abbot, abbot, I have already asked clearly."

"Okay, let's talk about the situation!" Tang Seng nodded slightly.

Xuan Yidao: "The disciple asked several people, and they all said the same thing, so there should be no problem. They said that the reason why there are so many people is because there are two big events in Xiliang Mountain."

"What's so exciting? Then don't we seem to be here to catch up with the excitement?" Huixin asked curiously.

Xuan Yidao: "The abbot is really right. Don't think we don't know the excitement here, but since we are here, it has something to do with the excitement here. Don't interrupt, listen to me slowly, the first thing is excitement, the disciple thinks it is true." It is an opportunity for us at Puji Temple."

As expected, Huixin didn't interrupt, but just listened carefully.

Although Tang Seng looked ahead, he also paid attention to what Xuan Yi said.

Only Xuan Yi continued to say: "Dabei Temple is a sacred place of Buddhism, Xiliang Mountain is full of incense, and there are a lot of believers and pilgrims here, so there are some temples that move incense here every year."

"In the beginning, in order to increase its influence, the Dabei Temple always refused to accept visitors. As long as you pay the fee, you can choose a place to build a temple in Xiliang Mountain. The larger the size of the Buddhist gate here, the more prominent the Dabei Temple will be. status."

"But later, because more and more monasteries moved here, Dabei Temple was not so easy to talk about. They only chose some powerful monasteries to build temples, so as not to affect the reputation of Buddhist holy places due to the uneven quality of monks in each monastery."

Hearing this, Hui Xin interjected again: "I have been to the Great Compassion Temple before, can I not know about these things? You just say the point is, what is the excitement?"

"Abbot, don't worry, won't we talk about it right away? Everything has its ins and outs!"

Xuan Yi said, and then continued: "Later, Dabei Temple established a rule that it does not usually recruit temples to enter Xiliang Mountain. It only recruits once every ten years. If this is the case, anyone who wants to move into Xiliang Mountain There is a horizontal comparison of the monasteries.”

"That's not to mention, in order to be able to practice Buddhism normally as soon as the new temple enters Xiliang Mountain, Dabei Temple welcomes the site selection in advance to build a large-scale temple in Xiliang Mountain. As long as it passes the examination, it can afford If you don’t pay the temple fees, you can live in the temple directly, without the need for each temple to build itself.”

"Five days later, there will be a recruiting conference held every ten years, so many monks appeared in the city. Do you think this is an opportunity for Puji Temple?"

Tang Seng heard his words, but he had a different idea in his heart.

Could it be that the task given by the system is for this matter? Could it be that once you arrive at the Dabei Temple in Xiliang Mountain, after completing this task, the next task is to obtain a recruitment quota, and then settle in Xiliang Mountain.

Most likely!

"What's the second excitement?"

Tang Seng asked.

"Abbot Xuanzang, it's like this. Three days after the recruiting meeting, there will be a grand meeting for recruiting disciples in Xiliang Mountain. Each monastery can recruit disciples individually in this temple, or at a place designated by Dabei Temple. Of course, in the The venues designated by the Great Compassion Temple will be recruited uniformly, and a site fee must be paid to the Great Compassion Temple."

Xuan Yi continued: "This grand event for recruiting disciples was only held in the past ten years. It can be said that it is the first grand event for recruiting students. Although there are different paths for cultivation, Buddhism is relatively poor and there are many precepts, but there are also some who have a heart for Buddha. There are quite a few monks and mortals, I asked briefly about it just now, and there are quite a few people who are ready to join the Buddhist sect. However, the recruitment of disciples is held in Xiliang Mountain, and each monastery must hand over the disciples to the Dabei Temple for affirmation. The cost of the quantity. After all, the Dabei Temple has a lot of expenses to prepare such a grand event."

"So, abbot and abbot, do you think these two events are related to our Puji Temple? It seems that they are specially prepared for us."

"Hmph, this Dabei Temple, as a sacred place of Buddhism, why does it ask for money everywhere? It's fine to buy the temple. It's fine to use his place to recruit disciples. He also needs money to recruit disciples. If you can't recruit disciples, you will be compensated." No?"

Tang Seng said with a cold snort.

"Xuanzang, this is Xiliang Mountain, and it's their territory. For example, in Fandu City, the Dabei Temple is forbidden to fly. No one dares to fly without saying a word. They are big, so they set up rules, which is very important." normal."

Huixin was really worried that Xuanzang would be upset and destroy the Great Compassion Temple. For Xuanzang, it would be just a matter of gestures.

"What's more, the disciple hasn't finished yet!"

Xuan Yi continued to say at this time: "The reason why Dabei Temple puts so much effort is to build a Buddhist community, which is the so-called Buddhist alliance. All monasteries and monks who settle in Xiliang Mountain can spend a certain amount of money. , to enjoy the resources of the Great Compassion Temple, but at critical times, these temples must obey the command of the Great Compassion Temple."

"That is to say, Dabei Temple will tie all the temples to his chariot, and become the only boss." Tang Seng nodded slightly.

"It should be like this, the holy land of Buddhism, the Great Compassion Temple says nothing!" Abbot Huixin nodded accordingly.

"Hehe, it's okay to listen to him if he's right, but if he's wrong, it depends on his strength!"

Tang Seng murmured, and began to think in his heart.

Dabei Temple is located in the center of Xiliang Mountain, two or three thousand miles away from the foot of the mountain. When Tang Seng and his party flew to about a hundred miles away from the location of Dabei Temple, several yellow figures flew in the distance.

"Buddhist holy land, no flying!"

Those were five drinking priests in yellow monk's robes. Their figures flashed and stopped in front of Tang Seng.

Tang Seng had noticed this before. There are also some monks and monks who can go up and down in the sky. They also all reached this position, and they automatically fell down and walked.

Since it is a family rule, Tang Seng has no intention of breaking it.

After all, Dabei Temple is a landlord, if you don't want to abide by the rules, you don't have to go.

He glanced back at the monks and took the lead to fall down.

"Hmph, I really don't understand the rules, I have to stop before going down."

One of the yellow-clothed monks glared at the monks in Puji Temple before turning around and leaving with them.

Tang Seng didn't say anything, but his impression of Dabei Temple was getting worse and worse.
