The Adventure of All Worlds Starting from Doupo
Chapter 995: There must be something fishy going on!
The first stage of the Qin pilgrim's journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures is simply running. After all, they have to go to the Leiyin Temple to seek the true scriptures, and a weak body is not enough. They might get sick and die along the way.
As a result, many old monks heard it and started pounding the ground. After all, they had been chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha all their lives and had never exercised at all.
The journey is not particularly long, only about 30 miles round trip.
Only the top 100 are qualified, and the rest are eliminated directly.
In order to win the first level, the Buddhist monks had to risk their lives.
Of course, there are also some monks who practice cultivation among this group of monks, and most of them can even fly over eaves and walk on walls.
The most powerful old monk among them had already reached the peak of the celestial being. His moving figure was as fast as the wind and he could complete a round trip in less than ten breaths.
The monks of Da'an Temple were running out of breath, and the old abbot's legs were almost broken. It was not that he did not want to go west to meet the Buddha, but he really was powerless!
Looking at the top 100, even Xuanzang couldn’t squeeze in.
The Bodhisattva Guanyin in the sky frowned. More than 80 people had already passed the first level, but Xuanzang had not yet completed one tenth of the journey.
Finally, Guanyin closed her eyes and gently waved the willow leaf in her hand. A few drops of liquid with rich life force dripped onto Xuanzang's bald head.
For a moment, it seemed as if the Ren and Du meridians were opened, and Xuanzang's feet involuntarily began to run quickly.
Just when the final 100 were about to be announced, Xuanzang finally crossed the finish line.
An elder from Daan Temple asked, "Junior Brother Tianye, do you think it is possible that Xuanzang is the one who sought the scriptures?"
As the monk Tianye, who had just made a bet with Xuanzang, his face turned blue and purple. He couldn't really let such an elder eat shit!
"That's impossible. He must have just been lucky. Just wait and see. He will probably be eliminated in the next round!"
The second round will start soon, and simply speaking it will be based on appearance and age.
A group of old monks were eliminated directly, with no room for negotiation.
An old monk with a white beard exuded an astonishingly powerful aura and said unconvincedly:
"I protest. With my current cultivation, I can live for hundreds of years without any problem. Why do you want to eliminate me?"
The examiner simply glanced at the old monk and said with a sneer:
"Don't you even look at your own appearance? You should know that the pilgrims represent the reputation of our Great Qin. Don't go and embarrass yourself, you old bald donkey!"
The old monk refused to accept and wanted to continue making trouble, but he was quickly pulled down by two earth immortal-level guards.
The third level is also the most important one, which is mainly to see all the monks’ understanding of Buddhism.
However, the examiner had already received the emperor's secret order, so all he had to do was let Chen Xuanzang pass.
Over the next three days, the 100 monks took turns to compete in the order in which they passed the first level.
Many of them were very proficient in Buddhist scriptures. When they recited, golden light appeared. Even the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the sky smiled and nodded.
In the end, only Xuanzang was left. He was one of someone's incarnations, so of course he knew that the person who sought the scriptures was none other than him. So no matter how he performed next, he would be the final winner.
The examiner nodded and said calmly, "Master Xuanzang, it's your turn!"
In fact, the examiner was also very curious about how high the attainments in Buddhism were for the monk who was chosen by the Western Buddhist sect to be a pilgrim, and how he compared to the previous eminent monks.
Xuanzang put his hands together and performed a Buddhist salute in front of everyone, and then...
"Amitabha, I seem to have forgotten the Buddhist scriptures. Could you give me some time to go back and read them a few more times?"
The expressions on the examiners' faces froze. The Guanyin in the sky and the powerful Buddhists felt the inner demons surging in their bodies.
The monks who had performed before couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Even with this level, he still wants to compete with them for the identity of the one who obtains the scriptures.
The group of monks from Da'an Temple who were watching from behind couldn't help but cover their faces with their sleeves.
Monk Tianye said with resentment: "I told you he was no good. Now it's good. I guess our temple will be famous throughout the Qin Dynasty. Our reputation will be ruined!"
The examiner patted the table and shouted to everyone in the audience: "Please wait for a moment, I will be back soon!"
After walking to an empty corner, the examiner stopped pretending. He himself had the cultivation level of an early stage celestial being.
With a simple flight of clouds and mist, they soon found the Buddhist group in the sky.
"Buddha, this Master Xuanzang is so terrible, I really have a hard time dealing with him!"
Guanyin also smiled and said a few words, after all, Jin Chanzi's behavior was really embarrassing.
If this method could be adopted, the other monks would surely be dissatisfied.
He gestured to the arhat next to him, and a top-grade jade pendant emitting fairy spirit was handed to the examiner.
"Please, sir, as long as Xuanzang passes, it will be considered that your emperor has completed the mission, and we can also go back and report to the Buddha!"
Back on the ground, the examiner announced with a dark face that Xuanzang was the final winner.
After the results came out, of course, there was a commotion. Those monks who were dissatisfied no longer cared about the laws of the Qin Dynasty and even directly threatened the examiners.
"There must be a shady secret!"
"I'm going to sue the officials. The invigilator must have taken bribes. If the government doesn't do anything, I'll kneel at the gate of the palace until I die!"
"Yes, let's go to the palace together and definitely send this corrupt official to jail!"
……
Xuanzang came before several elders of Da'an Temple amidst the gazes of the other monks who seemed to want to strangle him to death.
"It's too easy. The other competitors can't do it!"
Abbot Tianyun closed his eyes and chanted "Amitabha". He could already feel the anger in the eyes of his fellow monks.
Monk Tianye was in a dilemma. He had always kept his promises in his life, but to really produce and sell the products in public was a bit...
The next day, a group of monks sat cross-legged in front of the palace and they also hung banners.
Severely punish corrupt officials!
Re-elect the person to obtain the scriptures!
Your Majesty is wise, long live the Qin Dynasty, we want fairness!
……
Emperor Qin Zhen, who had just finished playing with several beautiful concubines sent by Buddhism at night and was in a state of mental exhaustion, was awakened by the noise outside the palace early in the morning.
"Who is wailing outside? Do you think my sword is not sharp?"
Immediately, an old eunuch came up and explained the situation outside. The emperor was furious after hearing it, and immediately ordered the guards to chop all the monks outside to death.
In the end, it was those beautiful concubines who persuaded him, thus avoiding the brutal massacre of the few eminent Buddhist monks in Qin.
Finally, the emperor told the group of monks outside in his own name that the candidates to be sent to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures had already been decided, and if they still had any questions, they could ask Guanyin Bodhisattva and Buddha themselves.
Finally, under the threat of a group of Qin soldiers armed with machetes, the monks had to leave in a hurry.
