Being favored by evil gods, I became sick and weak and became the Bone Bodhisattva.

King Sang suddenly bowed to the little girl and said with a tearful voice: "The war in the country is not going away. Now only the magician can save the people from the fire and water."

Huh?

Seeing Tangtang's confused look, the queen sighed and told the story.

"..."

"With everyone fighting like this, is it still useful for Tangtang to make peace now?" the little girl asked, scratching her head.

"Alas, Xiao Wang's misunderstanding has just led to today's disaster."

"Please ask the mage to give it a try. No matter whether it succeeds or not, Xiao Wang will burst into tears of gratitude!"

Chapter 164 Master Tangtang

Without any bodyguards, and without even asking Yao Bingshi to follow her, the little girl came to the place where the 'monk chaos' was at its worst, all by herself.

"The demon monk is causing chaos in the country!"

"Bah, King Sang falsely claimed to be the Buddha King, but now he is openly committing an act of destroying the Buddha. He will definitely be punished someday!"

The officers and soldiers are fighting with the militia organized by the monks. The former is better because of its strong organizational discipline, and the latter is better because of the strong generals who can fight ten or a hundred.

Rukong is bare-chested and dances like a tiger with a bronze Japanese melon hammer in his hand.

Wherever he went, people fell on their backs, and he was stunned to defeat a hundred-man squad of officers and soldiers by himself.

At this time, if the militiamen could swarm forward and tear apart the battle formation along the gap opened in the sky, then the officers and soldiers would be defeated in this battle.

It's a pity that the militiamen may sound like militiamen, but in reality they are just farmers who have just put down their hoes.

Not only did they fail to seize the opportunity to win, but because they ran too slowly, they put too much distance between themselves and Rukong, so that he was deeply trapped in the enemy's formation!

'Well, if my old brothers were still here, they would have won by now. '

I feel that there are more and more officers and soldiers around me, and the copper hammer in my hand is getting heavier and heavier. Ru Kongxin's head can't help but feel sad.

Originally, everyone's plan was to scare King Sang, and then find Master Tangtang to mediate.

It's okay for him to give in, as long as he takes back the king's order.

But I never expected that not only Master Tangtang was missing, but King Sang was also like the bastard who ate the weight, regardless of the external threat from the Cang Kingdom, he was determined to fight them to the end.

So far, all his old friends have been killed, Ruhai has been seriously injured, and the monks in other monasteries have already lost their strength and want to surrender.

If not for the breath in my chest...

hiss--

Leng Buding was stabbed in the waist. Ru Kong tightened his muscles and kicked the attacker away.

"The demon monk can't swing the hammer anymore, kill him, kill him and get three levels in a row!"

Ru Kong gasped and threw away the Japanese melon hammer, picked up two long knives and glared at the generals in the distance to encourage morale.

"Upgraded to three levels in a row? Grandpa will kill you first!"

The man was not afraid when he saw Rukong coming towards him.

After all, the great monk is at the end of his strength, and now he may not lose even if he is one-on-one.

"Senior brother, retreat quickly, don't show off your strength——"

This, this voice is, Junior Brother Ruhai?

When Rukong turned around, he saw his junior brother, wrapped in gauze, rushing over on a horse.

...........

Ru Kong and Ru Hai joined forces and managed to break out of the siege.

Today is another invincible situation, but both of them know in their hearts that their side can't hold on much longer.

"Senior brother, wait until night, and we will escape under the cover of darkness."

Ruhai whispered: "If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. King Sang's rebellious behavior has made Buddhism angry, and the masters of the first- and second-class temples will not be able to sit still. Let's find a big temple to take refuge in and wait for the weather. There will always be a day when I can reach the palace."

When Rukong heard this, he suddenly forced out a smile that was even uglier than crying: "Junior brother, killing the king's palace will certainly relieve the hatred. But on that day, how many people will die in the turmoil in Sang country?"

Ruhai was stunned for a moment, then heard Rukong continue: "I originally became a monk because I was tired of the life of licking blood from the knife edge. I am fighting with people every day, and sometimes I can't distinguish the peaceful life in Jikong Temple in the past. Is this life a dream after all?”

"Brother..."

"Furthermore, these people on the battlefield put down their hoes and sacrificed their lives to protect the Buddha after listening to our words. I can't just leave them."

Ruhai fell into complete silence. He didn't want to leave Rukong and run away alone, nor did he want to stay here and die in vain.

For the current plan, the only way is to wait until Rukong falls asleep and knock him out, then tie him up and run away together.

"Junior brother, don't think about touching the bedside at night and knocking me out. I'm afraid I'll misunderstand that someone is trying to take my life at night, so I'll stab you to death with a backhand knife."

Ruhai laughed forcefully and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed a very familiar little girl walking from a distance.

It’s Master Tangtang!

The two quickly got off their horses and ran to the little girl anxiously.

..............

"Oh, Tangtang finally found you."

The little girl wiped her sweat and directly stated her purpose: "Your Majesty, please ask me to come over to make peace. Can everyone please stop fighting?"

"..."

"........"

Rukong looked ecstatic, but Ruhai immediately covered his mouth.

"Ahem, even now I can't say I won't fight if I don't fight. The king has to show some sincerity, right?" Ruhai said with a frown.

"He said he would return all the sealed monasteries to you."

Rukong pulled away Ruhai's hand covering his mouth and was about to agree, but the latter quickly took out a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Master Tangtang, are you the guarantee for this?" Ruhai asked seriously.

"Yeah, Tangtang guarantees it."

The little girl put on a serious expression: "If he doesn't keep his word, Tangtang will let Xiaobai hit him."

A stone finally fell to the ground in my heart, but Ruhai still didn't agree immediately.

Regardless of Rukong winking at him, he said thoughtfully: "In addition to returning the temple, we have two conditions."

"what?"

"First, the king must respect Master Tangtang as his guru; secondly, His Highness the Prince must worship Master Tangtang as his teacher and tell the world."

Subjectively speaking, Ruhai just wants to gain benefits for the little girl and let Jikong Temple really embrace Master Tangtang's lap.

But objectively speaking, these two conditions created favorable conditions for the further development of Buddhism in Sang Kingdom.

The first condition is fine, but the key is the second condition.

No matter how many children the queen has, the eldest prince will always be the first heir to the throne.

And throughout the history of the Sang Kingdom, there has never been a Sang King who worshiped any eminent Buddhist monk as his teacher!

................

Unexpectedly, both of Ruhai's conditions were related to her, and the little girl couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Master Tangtang, returning the temple is not a sign of sincerity. If King Sang really wants to make peace, please agree to the last two conditions."

"Yes, please make sure he agrees!" After swallowing the dough, Ruhai also said quickly.

"Okay, Tangtang, go back and talk to him now."

Tangtang took out her beloved little paper horse and rode it back to the palace.

Without much hesitation, King Sang agreed to the two conditions proposed by Ruhai.

Rukong and Ruhai can now be said to be the leaders of the revolting monks. As soon as they gave up, and King Sang also surrendered, the turmoil in other parts of the Sang country quickly calmed down.

The monks returned to their monasteries to live their own good lives, King Sang and Queen no longer had to worry, and the people no longer had to endure the pain of war.

Everyone in the Sang Kingdom was extremely grateful for Master Tangtang's mediation.

Chapter 165 Prince Shakya

King Sang and the people of Sang have respected Master Tangtang as their guru, but the prince's appointment as a guru has not yet been implemented.

It's not that King Sang wanted to go back on his word, he wished that the matter of becoming a disciple could be concluded as soon as possible. It was the Queen who advised him not to take the matter lightly and to treat it seriously.

"We can take this opportunity to invite the mages to watch the ceremony, so as to ease the tension between the king and the Buddhist sect."

The queen's idea was good, but King Sang was a little worried.

"Do you want to invite the mages from the third-class temples as well? If so, what if they take the opportunity to assassinate you?"

The king's courage seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. Thinking like this, the queen persuaded him nicely: "With Master Tangtang here, the king doesn't have to worry about being in danger. Besides, the prince's apprenticeship is undoubtedly a Buddhist event. Which master?" Are you willing to destroy?”

Under the Queen's persuasion, what was originally a small apprenticeship ceremony was transformed into a grand ceremony.

The auspicious day of the zodiac must be chosen, eminent monks from all walks of life must be invited, and the whole country must celebrate.

"Wow--"

On the day of the apprenticeship ceremony, looking at the palace decorated with lights, looking at the gathering guests, and listening to the joyful and lively sounds outside, Tangtang thought it was some kind of grand festival.

After marveling, she couldn't help but ask Yao Bingshi beside her: "Sister Yao, what festival is today? Everyone looks so happy."

"It's not a holiday yet, but this day may really become a special holiday every year in the future."

Yao Bingshi smiled and pushed Tangtang forward: "Come on, everyone is waiting for you."

"Master Sugar!"

"Good, good."

"Meet the Master"

Along the way, Tangtang saw many familiar faces.

Chong Guan, Ming Xin, Huizhen, Ru Kong, Ru Hai, Enlightenment, Sun Qi...

Even after the destruction of Honglian Temple, Chongguan, who had always looked bitter and hateful, had a smile on his face today.

.............

When the little girl arrived on the stage, the apprenticeship ceremony officially began.

The queen came to Tangtang with her little prince in her arms, while King Sang held her son's hand and presented a bowl of apprenticeship tea to Tangtang.

"hey-hey"

Although she doesn't usually drink tea, today Tangtang happily drank the bowl of apprenticeship tea in one go.

"It's just a small gift, please accept it, Master."

According to tradition, King Sang presented seven treasures (gold, silver, colored glaze, crystal, coral, pearl, agate) as the prince's apprenticeship ceremony.

"Well, Tangtang also has a gift for the prince."

With that said, the little girl covered the little guy with the brocade silk with the "Miaoxiang Glaze Sutra" written on it.

"Practice diligently from now on, and you won't get sick."

"Thank you, Master, for your generous gift." After thanking him, King Sang said solemnly, "I also ask Master to give Wang Er a dharma title."

Huh?

Dharma, Dharma name.

Tangtang thought hard for a long time, and finally had an idea of ​​a fruit she ate this morning.

"Sakyamuni, the Buddhist name is Shakya."

After the title was given, the apprenticeship ceremony was successfully concluded.

The name of Sakyamuni spread from the palace and quickly spread throughout the royal city.

"Prince Shakya!"
