Chapter 2667 Why Bother?

After getting along with Xu Yi for a long time, Xu Yi's normal thoughts can rarely be hidden from Luang Mei.

Of course, if Xu Yi wanted to be evil, Luo Mei, who considered himself honest and kind, could not escape the trap of this ignorant person.

Xu Yi snorted coldly and cursed, "Don't come up with bad ideas, just take it one step at a time."

………………

The dark blue city wall towers into the clouds, and nearly ten miles away, the huge city comes into view.

A middle-aged man in Tsing Yi with a humble smile on his face said to Xu Yifen who was standing at the head of the flying dragon boat, "Your Majesty, this is the largest city in our East Continent, Chang'an City. As far as I know, in terms of scale, It is also the largest city in the entire four continents. The city is full of clothes and has a great literary style. As far as I know, your Majesty is also a literary talent. His famous poems and poems that he once lived in Beizhou have been passed down to our East Continent, and are praised by the young men of the world. . Foreign officials also admire me..."

The middle-aged man in Qingyi who spoke was an envoy from Dongzhou's Ministry of Rites.

Dongzhou is known as the fertile land of China, where the imperial way is flourishing, the majesty of the emperors in the world is not diminished, and the world of cultivation is prosperous with Confucianism and Buddhism.

The top powers include the White Horse Temple of Buddhism and the Qinglu Academy of Confucianism. These two are similar to the ancestral court and the pope in Xizhou, but they are not as antagonistic as the ancestral court and the pope. , one who upholds the orthodoxy of the imperial way and cooperates more than opposes.

In addition to White Horse Temple and Qinglu Academy, there is also something similar to Biyou Academy in Dongzhou, which is called Xiaocheng Mountain.

Calculated in this way, the six major forces occupy two continents respectively.

In order to facilitate communication between each other, the three major powers in each continent have set up permanent units in each other's places.

This time, Xu Yi, as the new master of the ancestral court, can be regarded as the most distinguished guest to visit. He just led the team to enter the world of Dongzhou. The Dongzhou Imperial Court sent accompanying envoys to travel thousands of miles away. Welcome from outside.

Along the way, the accompanying envoy introduced the Eastern customs and customs in a unique and interesting way, which made Xu Yi feel open-minded along the way.

Entering the sky above Chang'an City, Xu Yi ordered Elder Zeng, the second person in charge of the ancestral court's trip this time, to lead a team to stay at the An embassy. He descended from the dragon boat and started touring Chang'an City.

This place is indeed a prosperous place for culture and education. Every time you walk through a street market, you can hear the sound of reading. The residents in the city are mostly gentle and polite. There is an academy or Buddhist temple almost every few hundred steps.

It can be seen from this that the two schools of Buddhism and Confucianism have truly sunk to the lowest level. The power gathered in this way must be huge. No wonder there is a rumor in the world that "the west is not as good as the east."

When Xu Yi was visiting Chang'an City, a silent bird floated silently in the sky thousands of feet above his head, following him closely.

The Tranquility Bird is almost invisible. Unless you get very close and observe carefully, you can barely see that every moment, there is a tiny wave of air flowing in the air.

"Master Qi, I measured it with a scale and found that this person only melted one fire seed. I really can't figure out how this person got to this point with such a low level of cultivation."

In the dark Buddhist chamber, Xuanzhuang was sitting cross-legged. There was a strong sense of ascetic beauty on Baoxiang's solemn handsome face. A man fell down in front of him and reported.

Looking carefully, the man was dressed in green clothes and was about forty years old. He was the envoy who had introduced Xu Yi earlier.

Xuanzhuang's handsome eyebrows slightly furrowed and he said, "Go and inform Master Cao that we can start taking action."

The middle-aged man in Qingyi bowed once more before taking his leave.

The middle-aged man in green clothes came out, and a middle-aged monk came out from behind the navy blue curtain. He sat down opposite Xuanzhuang and said warmly, "Junior brother, today is different from the past. This person's climate has become mature and his status is noble. If he is not handled properly, We will be extremely passive, after all, those Confucian scholars don’t want to get into trouble.”

Xuanzhuang said, "Senior brother, do you know why I entered the Jialan Ancestral Forest when I came back from Xizhou that time?"

The middle-aged monk said, "Junior brother sent Da Hongyuan to the Jialan Ancestral Forest, was baptized by the light of ten thousand Buddhas, and experienced unbearable tribulations for ordinary people. In a short period of time, three seeds were melted. Such great wisdom and courage are reflected in the entire White Horse Temple. esteem."

Xuanzhuang recited the Buddha's name, "Senior brother, you are wrong. Xuanzhuang knew that he was not a courageous person. He risked his life and entered Jialan Ancestral Forest all because of Xu Yi. In the past, my master sent me to lead an important mission to Xizhou. , all because of my son’s interference, I finally fell short. My master was generous and never blamed me, and even comforted me."

"But Xuanzhuang felt really guilty, so he entered the Jialan Ancestral Forest and was baptized by the light of ten thousand Buddhas, and he became what he is today. Now that this son has come, God has given him a good opportunity, and Xuanzhuang cannot let it pass. What's more, I can see that, because Xu The matter that Yi joined and got mixed up is extremely important to Master. Xuanzhuang has received great kindness from Master in this life, and he has nothing to repay, so why should he cherish this life."

The middle-aged monk suddenly became solemn and said, "If it concerns Master Xuanzang, it is a matter of great importance and cannot be taken too seriously. In this case, if I can do this with confidence, everyone at White Horse Temple will give their full support."

Xuanzhuang waved his hand and said with a smile, "Xu Yi is just a man. Although he has cunning and can be considered a hero, he is not worthy of the solemnity of our White Horse Temple. One Xuanzhuang is enough."

The middle-aged monk nodded and said, "I have always known about the talents of my junior brother. However, since this matter is related to Holy Master Xuanzang, I have to ask. Even if the leader knows, he should also ask his junior brother. After all, Holy Master Xuanzang is a Due to the glory of my White Horse Temple for thousands of years, I am known as the person closest to the earthly immortal in the world. Senior brother cannot be too careful with such existence."

For this reason, Xuanzhuang could not refuse, so he had to explain the cause and effect.

The middle-aged monk was surprised and said, "Uncle Huineng agreed? I, the White Horse Temple, only got a wisp of such a treasure."

Xuanzhuang said with a smile, "Compared with Master's great cause, that treasure is nothing."

The middle-aged monk nodded, "That's the truth, but it still requires perfection. Your strategy is good, but it will be difficult to implement. The Pope and Biyou Academy may not cooperate."

Xuanzhuang said, "I invited Liu Jingtian from Xiaocheng Mountain."

The middle-aged monk twisted his beard and smiled, "Liu Jingtian has a lot of connections. If we invite him, the matter will be 80% settled. The next 20% will be decided. The key is that this person has a distinguished status and is rumored to be extremely aggressive."

Xuanzhuang smiled and said, "He is not of high status, so I would not set up such a situation. He is aggressive? In such a situation, whether it is soft or hard, I can't even tell him to play it."

Xu Yi wandered around the city for two days, and his interest remained undiminished. The painted boats on the Tusu River and various poetry and literary activities made him unable to return.

That evening, he was on a boat, watching a group of scholars compete in poems, compositions, and bets with oirans. He was in a good mood. Suddenly, there was movement in the Ruyi Pearl, prompting the ban to be lifted. However, it was Elder Zeng who sent the news. "Your Majesty, Master Xuanzhuang of White Horse Temple came to visit with everyone. He said that Mr. False Master is his old friend and came here to visit to reminisce about old friendship."

"I know, I'll be back right away, treat you well, don't neglect."

Xu Yi replied, closed the Ruyi Pearl, looked into the distance, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and murmured, "Why bother?" Then he stood up and left.
