"Master Imperial Master, are there any hidden dangers after the Dharma Assembly?" Zen Master Baoshu asked with a frown.
"It is related to Zen Master Jiang Liu, so let him speak for himself." Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said so.
When everyone heard this, their eyes fell on Chaner.
Zener's face was solemn, completely different from usual. He raised his palm and bowed to everyone present before speaking:
"That day, I believe you all saw the phantom of the monk who helped me to lead away the ghosts, right? That was not because of any magical power I had developed, but because he was a remnant of the soul of my previous life, Master Xuanzang."
"That shadow turned out to be Master Xuanzang?" Zen Master Baoshu asked in surprise.
There was also a flash of shock in the eyes of Elder Zheshi, Zen Master Kongdu of Huasheng Temple and others.
They all knew that Master Xuanzang walked out of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda inexplicably and disappeared from Chang'an City. He was later found and the longevity lamp left in the pagoda was extinguished, which led to the reincarnation of Master Jiang Liu.
"How can a soul that has already been reincarnated still have some remnants left?" Zen Master Kongdu asked puzzledly.
"Maybe it was the reincarnation of a residual soul, so I couldn't wake up for a long time. This time, the evil blood left in the Buddhist beads was at work, which allowed the residual soul to wake up and tell me something." Zener continued.
"I wonder what Master Xuanzang said?" Elder Zheshi asked hurriedly.
"It's not a big deal, but a request. The remnant soul of my previous life wants me to go to the Western Regions, saying that an extremely important thing was left there, and he hopes that I must retrieve it." Zener said.
"What is it?" Everyone was very curious.
"I still don't know what it is. The remnant soul of my previous life didn't tell me what it was specifically. He just said that this thing is related to common people, and asked me to get it back without fear of danger." Zener shook his head and said.
"We didn't tell it because we wanted to conceal the secret and prevent anyone from discovering it, thus implicating Chaner. This is enough to illustrate the importance of this thing. The National Master helped to deduce it afterwards, but he could only infer that after leaving Chang'an City, Master Xuanzang followed the journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures and returned to the vicinity of the Kingdom of Wuji, and finally died there. As for what exactly happened, there is no way to deduce it." Cheng Yaojin frowned and said.
"If that's the case, we should send someone to the Kingdom of Wuji to investigate the matter." Zen Master Baoshu frowned.
"No, this matter is unusual. I think it would be better for a few of us to go there in person." Elder Zheshi said.
"This is what I asked you to do in my previous life. I will go and verify it myself, but the journey is difficult... I hope to ask Donor Lu and Donor Shen to accompany me." Chan'er said, looking at Shen Luo and Lu Huaming.
Obviously after the previous experience in Jinshan Temple, Chaner has already trusted Shen Luo and the others quite a bit.
Lu Huaming naturally had no objection and followed Cheng Yaojin's lead in everything.
"Your Excellency the Duke, I wonder if there is any progress on the person with the plum blossom mark who I asked you to investigate earlier?" Shen Luo thought for a moment and did not agree immediately, but asked in a voice transmission.
Cheng Yaojin heard this, paused for a moment, and replied in voice transmission:
"The results won't come out so quickly. Even if the Ministry of Revenue arranges officials to check the household registration files, it will take a while to get the results. Moreover, for some people whose household registration is unknown, they still need to check at their homes."
