"The Book of Songs" said: A hundred years of time like water flow, life career and other floating retting. Yesterday my face was peach-colored, but today there are snowflakes floating around my head.

The termites are old and broken, and the cuckoo's voice is eager to turn back. Since ancient times, Yin squid can prolong life, good at not asking for pity from heaven.

Following Judge Cui and Marshal Zhu, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty freed himself from his enemies and advanced for a long time before arriving at the place of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. He saw the cloud-riding figure wearing a robe, the goldfish hanging from the waist of the person who had received the talisman, monks, nuns, Taoists, laymen, birds, beasts, demons, ghosts, and monsters all running under the reincarnation and entering their own paths. "What do you mean?" asked the king. "Your Majesty," said the judge,"is wise enough to see one's nature. You must remember it and pass it on to the people of the world of the living. This was called the Six Paths of Reincarnation: those who did good would ascend to the immortal path, those who were loyal would reincarnate, those who were filial would reincarnate, those who were fair would reincarnate, those who accumulated virtue would reincarnate, and those who were vicious would fall into the ghost path.”When the Tang Emperor heard this, he nodded and sighed,"

Good ah, really good ah, do good fruit without disaster! Good heart is always sincere, and good Tao is widely opened.

Don't teach evil thoughts, you must be less cunning. Don't say there's no retribution. Gods and ghosts have plans.

The judge sent the Tang King to the reincarnated noble sect and bowed to the Tang King,""Your Majesty, this is the place to stand out. I have returned and asked Grand Marshal Zhu to send me off.”"Thank you, sir," the Tang King thanked him.”The judge said,"Your Majesty, when you come to the world of the living, you must hold a water-land meeting to ferret the souls of those who have no master. Don't forget." If there is no sound of revenge in the underworld, the world of the living can enjoy peace. All kinds of bad things can be changed one by one, and the world will be taught to be good. Discipline your descendants for a long time, and the country will be stable forever.”The king of Tang approved the memorial one by one, took his leave of Judge Cui, and followed Marshal Zhu into the gate. The marshal saw a sea horse in the gate, with a saddle and a saddle. He hurriedly asked the king to mount the horse. The marshal supported him. The horse moved as fast as an arrow and arrived at the bank of Weishui River. A pair of golden carps were jumping on the water surface. The Tang Emperor was delighted to see this, but he couldn't bear to part with it. The marshal said,""Your Majesty, hurry up and enter the city as soon as possible.”The Tang Emperor only cared about watching and refused to move forward. The Grand Commandant pinched his foot and shouted,""What are you waiting for?" With a thud, he looked at the Wei River and pushed off his horse, leaving the underworld and returning to the world of the sun.

The Tang Dynasty had Xu Maogong, Qin Shubao, Hu Jingde, Duan Zhixian, Ma Sanbao, Cheng Yaojin, Gao Shilian, Yu Shinan, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Xiao Yuyu, Fu Yi, Zhang Daoyuan, Zhang Shiheng, Wang Gugui, and other civil and military officials. They all protected the Crown Prince, Empress, concubines, palace maids, and attendants in the White Tiger Palace. One side of the discussion to pass the mourning edict, to tell the world, want to help the prince ascend the throne. Wei Zheng, who was standing by the side, said,"Everyone, please stay. No, no! If the state and county are alarmed, I'm afraid there will be accidents. Wait for another day, and my lord will come back to life.”"Prime Minister Wei, you are wrong," Xu Jingzong said. Since ancient times, it has been said that it is difficult to take back a spilled water. How can you still say such false words to confuse the hearts of people? What logic is this?”Wei Zheng said," I won't hide it from you, Mr. Xu. I have been taught immortal techniques since I was young. I am the most proficient in divination. I can guarantee that Your Majesty will not die."”Just as he was speaking, he heard a loud shout from the coffin,""Kill me! Kill me!" It frightened the civil officials and generals, and the empress and concubines were scared out of their wits. One by one-

Her face was like yellow mulberry leaves after autumn, and her waist was like tender willow branches before spring. The crown prince's feet are soft, and it is difficult to support the funeral staff to complete the mourning ceremony. How can I wear a beam crown and follow the etiquette of filial piety? The concubines fell down, and the colorful women fell down. The concubines were beaten down, but they were like hibiscus flowers blown down by the wind. The colorful girl was slanted, like a shower. The ministers were frightened and their bones went limp. Trembling with fear, I'm in a daze. The White Tiger Hall was like a broken bridge, and the funeral platform was like a collapsed temple.

At this time, all the palace people had left, and no one dared to approach the coffin. It was all thanks to the upright Xu Maogong, the righteous Prime Minister Wei, the courageous Qin Qiong, and the fierce Jing De who came forward to support the coffin and shouted,""Your Majesty, if there's anything you can't let go of, tell us. Don't play tricks and scare your family.”"It's not a trick," Wei Zheng said."It's the resurrection of His Majesty's soul." Hurry up and get the equipment!" Opening the lid of the coffin, he saw Taizong sitting inside, shouting,"I'm drowning!" Who saved her?" Maogong and the others stepped forward to help him up." Don't be afraid when Your Majesty wakes up. We are here to protect you."”Only then did the Tang Emperor open his eyes and say,"I had a hard time just now. I escaped from the evil spirits of the underworld and was killed by the water."”"Don't worry, Your Majesty," the officials said."What kind of flood is coming?”"I was riding a horse to the bank of the Wei River when I saw a double-headed fish playing. Marshal Zhu deceived me and pushed me off the horse. I fell into the river and almost drowned.”"Your Majesty's ghost aura has yet to dissipate," Wei Zheng said.”He was in a hurry to get the medicine from the Imperial Academy of Medicine and also arranged for porridge. Consecutive take a time or two, only to return to the original, know the human affairs. It was estimated that the king of Tang had died for three days and nights, and he returned to the world of the living to be king. The poem reads:

Ancient rivers and mountains have almost changed, and generations have been defeated and succeeded. There were many strange things in the Zhou, Qin, Han and Jin Dynasties. Who was like the Tang King who had died and resurrected?

It was late that day, and the ministers asked the king to go back to his bed, and each of them dispersed. The next morning, they took off their mourning clothes and changed into colorful clothes. They were all dressed in red robes and black hats, with purple ribbons and gold medals, waiting outside the court door for the summons.

On the other hand, Taizong had taken a calming potion and had several servings of porridge and soup. He was helped into his bedroom by the ministers and slept soundly for the night, maintaining his spirit until dawn. He was full of dignity. Look at how he dressed.

He wore a crown and a yellow robe. He wore a blue jade belt and a pair of worry-free shoes. His appearance is dignified, better than that of the current dynasty, and his prestige is strong, which is very popular today. What a peaceful and righteous King of the Tang Empire, and His Majesty Li who had revived the dead!

The king of Tang went to the Golden Palace and gathered two classes of civil and military officials. After the mountain call, they were divided into classes according to their grades. "If you have anything to report, come out and report. If you have nothing to report, leave the court.”Xu Maogong, Wei Zheng, Wang Bang, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng, Xu Jingzong, and the others flashed past the east chamber, while Yin Kaishan, Liu Hongji, Ma Sanbao, Duan Zhixian, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, Hu Jingde, and Xue Rengui flashed past the west chamber. They all came forward and bowed down in front of the white jade steps."Your Majesty, why did it take so long to wake up from the dream of the previous dynasty?”"When I received Wei Zheng's letter a few days ago," Taizong replied,"I felt my spirit leave the palace and saw the Imperial Guards inviting me out to hunt. As he was walking, there was no sign of his horse, and he saw his father fighting with his brothers. Just as I was about to solve the problem, I saw a man wearing a black hat and a black robe. It was Judge Cui Bang. He shouted at my brother to retreat. I passed Wei Zheng's letter to him. Just as I was looking, I saw a man in blue, holding a banner, leading me into the temple, to the Senluo Hall, and the ten generations of Yama sat down. He said that the Jing River Dragon falsely accused me of promising to save him and then killing him. He said that the three officers had already checked the case and urgently ordered me to take the life and death book and check my lifespan. At that time, Judge Cui handed over a book. The King of Hell read it and said: I have thirty-three years of heavenly salary. I have only lived for thirteen years. I still have twenty years to live. He immediately asked Marshal Zhu and Judge Cui to send me back. I bid farewell to the ten kings and allowed them to send fruits and fruits to thank them. Since I left Sen Luo Hall, I saw thousands of disloyal and unfilial people in the underworld who were not polite and righteous. They trampled on grain, deceived people openly and secretly, fought big and small scales, stole and cheated people, and deceived people by lewdness and evil. They suffered the pain of grinding, burning, pounding and filing, and suffered the punishment of hanging and stripping. It was not enough to see them. There were countless vengeful souls in the City of Vain Deaths. They are all the rebels of the sixty-four places of dust and the souls of the seventy-two bandits, blocking my way. Fortunately, Judge Cui acted as a guarantor and borrowed a treasury of gold and silver from the old minister of Henan to buy the ghost and move forward. Judge Cui told me to return to the world of the living, to hold a water and land meeting, to ferry the lonely soul without a master, and to say goodbye to him. After leaving the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Marshal Zhu invited me to mount my horse and fly to the bank of the Wei River. I saw a double-headed fish playing on the water. When I was happy, he pinched my feet and pushed me into the water. Only then did I come back to life.”When the ministers heard this, they all congratulated him, so they compiled a report, and the officials of the prefectures and counties all over the world did not write a memorial to celebrate.

Emperor Taizong issued a decree to pardon all sinners and to investigate the felons in prison. At that time, a judge ordered the Ministry of Punishment to hang and behead criminals, and more than 400 criminals were investigated and submitted to the court. Emperor Taizong pardoned him and returned home. He thanked his parents and brothers and entrusted his property to his relatives and nephews. He went to Cao Cao on this day the following year and still received the punishment he deserved. The prisoners thanked him and retreated. He also issued a notice to sympathize with orphans, and found that there were 3,000 old and young women in the palace, and issued an edict to send troops. From then on, both inside and outside the court were good. There is a poem to prove it. The poem says:

The king of Tang, a great country, was very kind and generous, and his morality exceeded Yao and Shun. Four hundred prisoners were released from prison, and three thousand resentful women were released from the palace.

Many officials in the world called it Shangshou, and all the officials in the court congratulated Yuanlong. A good heart should be blessed by heaven, and the shadow of blessing should be passed on to seventeen clans.

After Emperor Taizong released the palace maids and released the prisoners on death row, he issued an imperial notice and spread it all over the world. The notice said:

Heaven and earth are vast, the sun and moon are clear; The universe is broad and prosperous, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate treacherous parties. Use your heart to use magic, the result is only in this life; Good at spreading shallow knowledge, get blessing, stop talking about future generations. It is better to be a man of duty than to have a thousand clever plans. Ten thousand kinds of strong people, how can they be frugal with fate? Why do you need to read the scriptures when you are benevolent? If you want to harm others, you will read the Buddha's Sutra in vain!

From then on, there was no one in the world who could not do good. On the other side, there was a recruitment list, recruiting people to enter the underworld. One side will treasure a gold and silver warehouse, sent E Gong Hu Jingde to Henan Kaifeng Mansion, visit Xiangliang debt. A few days after the notice was posted, there was a sage who went to the court to offer fruits. He was originally from Junzhou. His surname was Liu Quan and his family had a wealth of 10,000 yuan. Because his wife, Li Cuilian, had pulled out a monk with a golden hairpin at the door, Liu Quan scolded him a few words, saying that he did not follow the woman's way and went out of the boudoir without permission. Li couldn't help but hang herself. Leaving behind a pair of young children, crying day and night. Liu Quan couldn't bear to see it, so he had no choice but to give up his life, abandon his family, abandon his children, and willingly sacrifice his life to see the King of Tang. The king passed down an edict, instructing him to go to the Golden Pavilion with a pair of pumpkin on his head, yellow coins on his sleeves, and medicine in his mouth.

That Liu Quanguo had died from poison. With a bit of spirit and a fruit on his head, he had already reached the gates of hell. "Who are you to come here?" shouted the ghost messenger guarding the gate.”"I was ordered by Emperor Taizong of the Great Tang to bring in fruits and fruits for the ten generations of Yama to enjoy," Liu Quan said.”The ghost messenger gladly received him. Liu Quan went straight to the Senluo Hall and saw the King of Hell. He brought the fruits and said,"By the decree of the Tang King, I offer fruits from afar to thank the ten kings for their forgiveness.”"What a trustworthy and virtuous Emperor Taizong!" King Yama was overjoyed.”So he collected the fruits. He asked the name of the person who entered the melon. Liu Quan said,"I am a citizen of Junzhou City, my name is Liu Quan. Because my wife Li hanged herself and left her children uncared for, I am willing to abandon my family and children and donate to serve the country. I have specially presented fruits and fruits to our king to thank you for your kindness.”When the ten kings heard this, they ordered Liu Quan's wife Li to be investigated. The ghost messenger quickly brought it to meet Liu Quan and his wife under Senluo Hall. When the King of Hell had finished speaking and thanked the ten kings for their forgiveness, he took out the Book of Life and Death and looked at it. The couple had the lifespan of ascending to immortality and had been sent back by the ghost messenger. "Li Cuilian has been dead for a long time," said the ghost messenger."Her body is gone. Where will her soul go?"”"Li Yuying, Tang Yu's younger sister, deserves to die," said the King of Hell. You can borrow his body and teach him to come back to life.”The ghost messenger accepted the order and brought Liu Quan and his wife back to life. He brought Liu Quan out of the underworld and the cold wind went all the way to Chang 'an, pushing Liu Quan's soul into the Golden Pavilion. He brought Cui Lian's soul into the inner court of the palace. He saw Palace Master Yu Ying walking slowly under the shade of the flowers. The ghost messenger pounced on him and pushed him to the ground. He captured his soul and pushed Cui Lian's soul into Yu Ying's body. The ghost sent him back to the netherworld without writing.

When the maids in the palace saw Yuying fall to her death, they hurried to the throne room and reported to the Empress,""Palace Mistress fell to her death!" The queen was shocked and immediately reported to Taizong. Taizong nodded and sighed."This is true. I once asked the ten kings of Yama,'How are the old and the young?”He said,"I'm all right, but I'm afraid your sister's life is short."'It's true." All the people in the palace came to mourn. When they reached the shade of the flowers, they saw that the palace master was slightly angry. "Don't cry, don't cry," said the Tang King. Don't scare him." He stepped forward and held his head with his hand, shouting,""Sister Yu, wake up!" The palace lord suddenly turned over and shouted,"Husband, slow down! Wait for me!"”"Imperial Sister," said Taizong,"we're here.”The Palace Master looked up and opened his eyes." Who are you? How dare you pull me?"”"It's your Imperial Brother and Imperial Sister-in-law," Taizong replied.”"How could I have any royal brother or sister-in-law?" the Palace Master said. My maiden name is Li, my baby name is Li Cuilian, and my husband's surname is Liu Quan. Both of us are from Junzhou. Because three months ago, I pulled out the golden hairpin and was a monk at the front of the door. My husband blamed me for leaving the inner door without permission and disobeying the woman's way. He scolded me a few times. I was so angry that I hung myself with a white silk belt and left my children behind. I cried day and night. Today, because my husband was sent by the King of Tang to the underworld to bring fruits, the King of Hell took pity on him and let us return. He was walking in front, and because I was late, I couldn't catch up with him and tripped. You are rude! I don't know your name. How dare you pull me!" When Taizong heard this, he said to the other palace officials,"I think the imperial sister has fainted. Nonsense."”The imperial edict ordered the Imperial Academy of Medicine to bring medicine and help Yuying into the palace.

When the King of Tang was in the palace, an official suddenly reported,"Long live, Liu Quan, the person who brought the fruits, has returned to his soul. He is waiting for the imperial edict outside the gate.”The king of Tang was shocked and quickly issued an edict to summon Liu Quan into the palace and bow down to the red steps. "What about the fruits?" asked Taizong.”Liu Quan said,"I carried the fruits and fruits to the gates of hell and led them to Sen Luo Temple. When I saw the Tenth Generation Yama King, I offered the fruits and fruits to express my king's sincere gratitude." The King of Hell was very happy and bowed to the King of Hell.'What a trustworthy and virtuous Emperor Taizong'!”"What did you see in the Underworld?" asked the Tang King.”"I haven't traveled far," said Liu Quan."I haven't seen much. I only heard the King of Hell ask me about my hometown and name. I told him about how I abandoned my family and son, how I was willing to come and offer melons because my wife hanged herself. He quickly sent a ghost messenger to lead my wife to meet me at Senluo Hall. On the other side, he checked the book of life and death and said that both my husband and wife had the longevity of ascending to immortality, so he sent a ghost messenger to send them back. I walked in front, my wife walked behind, and I was lucky enough to come back to life. But I don't know where my wife is going." "What did the King of Hell say about your wife?" Asked the Tang Emperor in surprise.”"The King of Hell didn't say anything," Liu Quan said.'Li Cuilian has been dead for a long time, and her corpse is gone.'King Yama said,"Li Yuying, the younger sister of Tang Yu, should die soon. Tell Cuilian to borrow Yuying's corpse to return to her soul."'I don't know where Tang Yumei is and where she lives. I haven't been able to find her.”When the King of Tang heard the report, he was filled with joy and said to many officials,"I bid farewell to Yama and once asked about the matters in the palace. He said that the old and the young were safe, but he was afraid that the imperial sister's life would be short. However, Yuying, the younger sister of the emperor, fell to her death under the shade of the flowers. I hurried to help her to see. After a while, she woke up and said,"Husband, wait for me!"'I only think he fainted and talked nonsense. She asked him for details, and he said the same thing as Liu Quan.”Wei Zheng reported,"My sister's life is short. She said this when she woke up. This is Liu Quan's wife's reincarnation." This matter is also true, please ask Palace Master to come out and see what he has to say.”"I've just ordered the Imperial Academy of Medicine to get some medicine. I don't know what's going on.”So he sent the concubines into the palace to ask for help. "What medicine am I taking?" The Palace Master shouted. This is my home! My house is a cool tile-roofed house, not like this yellow-infected house with fancy doors! Let me out, let me out!"

Just as he was shouting, he saw four or five female officials and two or three eunuchs supporting him up to the hall. "Do you know your husband?" asked the Tang King.”"What are you talking about?" Yuying said."We're husband and wife since we were little. We had a son and a daughter with him. How could we not recognize him?"”The king of Tang asked the eunuchs to help him down. The Palace Master went down the palace hall and reached the white jade steps. When he saw Liu Quan, he pulled him back and said,"Husband, where are you going? I fell down and was surrounded by those unreasonable people.”Liu Quan heard that he was talking about his wife, but he didn't dare to acknowledge him as his wife. "This is exactly what people see when mountains collapse and the earth crack, but it's hard to catch a life and die!"”What a righteous ruler. He had given Liu Quan all of his sister's dowry, clothes, and jewelry, just like dowry. He had also given him an imperial edict that he would be exempted from corvee forever, allowing him to bring his sister back. The husband and wife thanked him in front of the steps and returned home happily. There was a poem as proof:

Life and death were the front lines, and each had its own years. Liu Quan presented the melon back to Yang Shi, borrowed the corpse to resurrect Li Cuilian.

The two of them resigned from the king and went straight to Junzhou City. Seeing that their old family business and children were doing well, the two of them spread the good news without mentioning it.

Yuchi Gong took a warehouse full of gold and silver and went to Kaifeng Prefecture in Henan Province to visit Prime Minister Liang. He used to sell water for a living. His wife, Zhang, sold black pots and earthen ware at the door of the house to make a living. However, he earned some money and only used it for travel expenses. How many monks gave alms to buy gold and silver paper ingots and burned them in the warehouse, so he had such a good result. In the world of the living, he was a poor man who loved kindness, but in that world, he was an elder who accumulated jade and piled up gold. Yuchi Gong sent gold and silver to his door, scaring the husband and the prime minister out of their wits. He was also an official of the government. Outside the thatched cottage, chariots and horses gathered side by side. The old couple knelt on the ground like fools and mute, kowtowing and worshipping. "Please rise, old man," said Duke Yuchi. Although I am an imperial envoy, I have brought my king's gold and silver to return to you.”"I don't have any money to lend," he replied, trembling."How could I dare to accept this unknown wealth?"”"I also found out that you were a poor man," said Duke Yuchi."But you fasted and gave alms to monks. You spent as much money as you could, buying gold and silver paper ingots and burning them in the underworld. There are money you saved up in the underworld. It was me, Emperor Taizong, who died three days ago and came back to life. I borrowed a treasury of gold and silver from you in the netherworld. Today, I will return it to you in full. You can accept them one by one and wait for me to reply to the edict.”The two of them only bowed to the sky and didn't dare to accept it.""If I accept this gold and silver, I will die quickly. Although it is to burn paper to record the library, this is a matter of darkness; Besides, what proof did Grandpa Wansui have to borrow gold and silver in his lifetime? I dare not accept it." "His Majesty said that Judge Cui can vouch for the things he lent you. Please accept them."”"Even if I die, I won't dare to accept it."”Yuchi Gong saw that he refused bitterly, so he had to send someone to report. When Taizong saw this, he knew that Xiangliang would not accept gold and silver."This is a kind elder!" He immediately issued an edict to Hu Jingde to give him gold and silver to repair the temple, build a temple, and ask the monk to do good deeds, as if he should return it to him. When the edict arrived, Zhang Jingde looked at the palace gate to thank the emperor and read out the edict. Everyone knew about it. He then bought the gold and silver for a section of the city's foundation that was unobstructed by the army and the people. It was 50 mu wide. He started work on it and built a temple, named "Imperial Construction Xiangguo Temple". On the left is the temple of the prime minister and his wife. It is engraved with a stone tablet with the words "Yuchi Gong supervised the construction", which is today's Great Xiangguo Temple.

After the completion of the report, Taizong was very happy. However, he also gathered many officials, issued a list to recruit monks, built a water and land assembly, and ferried the lonely souls of the underworld. The list was spread all over the world, and officials from all over the world elected eminent monks to hold a meeting in Chang 'an. Within a month, many monks from all over the world arrived. The king of Tang issued an edict ordering Fu Yi, the governor of Taishi, to select eminent monks to carry out Buddhist activities. Fu Yi heard the emperor's will, immediately on the sparse to stop the pagoda, to say that there is no Buddha. Liu Biao said:

According to the law of the Western Regions, there is no monarch, minister, father and son. There are three ways and six ways to lure people into stupidity, pursue past sins, peep at future blessings, and recite Sanskrit in an attempt to escape. Besides, life and death, longevity and premature death are all natural, and punishment, virtue, power and happiness are all determined by the monarch. Now I hear that the laymen pretend to be Buddhists. Since the Five Emperors and Three Kings, there has been no Buddhism. The monarch is wise and the ministers are loyal, and the country is long. It was not until Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty that the god of the Hu people was established. However, only the Sangmen people in the Western Regions spread their teachings. It was indeed a barbarian invasion of the Heavenly Dynasty and was not worth believing.

When Emperor Taizong heard this, he threw the memorial to the ministers for discussion. At that time, there was a prime minister named Xiao Xing, who came out of the palace and bowed his head to report: "Buddhism thrives in many dynasties. It carries forward good and restrains evil. It helps the country in the dark. Buddha is a saint. Non-Saints are unable to do so. Please punish them severely." Fu Yi and Xiao Xing argued that the ceremony was originally to serve the monarch, but the Buddha abandoned his parents and became a monk, rebelled against the emperor as an ordinary man, and violated his parents by inheriting the body. Xiao Xing was not born in the empty mulberry, but followed the teachings of no father, which is the so-called non-filial piety, no parents. Xiao Xing put his hands together and said,"Hell is set up for this man.”Emperor Taizong summoned Zhang Daoyuan and Zhang Shiheng to ask them what the Buddha's blessing should be. The two ministers replied,"The Buddha is pure, benevolent, and forgiving. Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty divided the three religions into three levels: Dahui Zen Master has praise for the distant, through the support of many people, but there is no one who is not prominent; The reincarnation of the fifth ancestor was a phenomenon of Dharma. Since ancient times, it has been said that the three religions are supreme and cannot be destroyed or abandoned. I beg Your Majesty to judge me." "Your words are reasonable," said Taizong happily. If there are any more statements, you will be punished." So he asked Wei Zheng, Xiao Xing and Zhang Daoyuan to invite all Buddhas to choose a virtuous monk as the altar master and set up a Taoist temple. Everyone kowtowed to thank him and retired. From then on, there was a law that anyone who slandered monks and Buddhas would have his arm cut off.

The next day, the three officials gathered monks to check and choose one monk with virtue. Who do you think he is

Lingtong was originally named Golden Cicada, but because he had no intention of listening to Buddha's words, he was tortured by the secular world and was caught by the net.

Reincarnated into the earth to meet evil, not out of the previous evil party. His father was the champion of Haizhou Chen, and his grandfather was in charge of the court.

Born to offend the river star, along the river waves. The golden mountain on the island had great fate. Monk Qian 'an raised him.

At the age of eighteen, he went to the capital to ask for a foreign minister. The chief officer opened the mountain to mobilize the army, and Hongzhou suppressed the bandits and killed the vicious party.

The number one scholar, Guangrui, escaped from the sky, and his son and father met each other to congratulate him. I also pay my respects to the Lord's grace today, and the name of the wise man in Lingyan Pavilion is heard.

Enguan refused to accept, willing to become a monk, Hongfu monk will go to visit. His small name was Jiang Liu Gu Foer, and his Dharma name was Chen Xuanzang.

On that day, he cited Master Xuanzang to the crowd. This person had been a monk since he was a child. He had been fasting and receiving precepts since he was born. His grandfather saw that it was the current head of the court, Yin Kaishan. His father, Chen Guangrui, was the top scholar and was a Grand Scholar of the Wenyuan Hall. He does not love splendor, but only likes to cultivate death. They found out that he had a good background and a high moral character. There is nothing that cannot be understood in thousands of scriptures and scriptures, and there is nothing that cannot be understood in the immortal voice of Buddha. At that time, the three of them led him to the front of the emperor, raised the dust and danced, bowed and said: "We have received an imperial edict and have chosen an eminent monk, Chen Xuanzang.”When Taizong heard his name, he pondered for a long time and said,"Are you Xuanzang, the son of Scholar Chen Guangrui?”Jiang Liuer kowtowed and said,"Yes, I am.”Taizong said happily,"Indeed, you have done well. You truly are a monk of virtue and Zen." I give you the posts of Left Monk Gang, Right Monk Gang and Great Chan Du Monk Gang.”Xuanzang kowtowed to thank the emperor and accepted the official title of Dachan. He also gave him a five-colored golden cassock and a Vairocana hat. He told him to pay his respects to the wise monks again, arrange them in front of the class, write down the edict, go to Huasheng Temple, choose an auspicious day and good time, and start to perform the scriptures.

Xuanzang bowed again to receive the edict and went out. He went to Huasheng Temple to gather many monks, build a meditation couch, decorate the merit and music. A total of 1,200 monks were selected and distributed to the upper, middle, and lower halls. In front of all the Buddhas, all the objects are neat, and the heads are arranged in order. On the 3rd day of the 9th month of this year, the 49th day of the 49th day of the 4th day of the 49th day of the 49th day of the 4th day of the 49th day of the 4th day Emperor Taizong and his civil and military relatives and relatives of the imperial family all went to the meeting on time and listened to the lecture with incense. After all, I don't know what the emperor's will is. Let's listen to the next chapter.
