The early spring sun was already warm, spreading a faint golden radiance.
On the balcony of the second floor of the mansion, Tang Wan brewed a pot of English black tea and gave it to Yang Cheng, Jane, and Hsiao Chih-ching to savor.
These days, other than going to the company to deal with some necessary business, Tang Wan didn't return home. She lived with Yang Cheng and his daughter, taking care of Lanlan and enjoying the rare intimate time.
Because her mother was here, Tangtang would always come to visit. Of course, it was inevitable that she would get along well with Lanlan.
Although it had only been two years since she first got to know Yang Chen, TangTang had matured a lot. She was no longer the crazy problematic high school girl from back then. When she brought Lanlan out to play, she looked like a big sister.
This made Tang Wan always show a satisfied and happy expression, as if she treated the two girls as her own. This made Yang Cheng feel helpless. This woman's motherly love was overflowing.
At this moment, Yang Cheng was holding a piece of news material that Jane had brought. It was a report from various newspapers that Jane had extracted from the Internet.
There were pictures in the report. The content was a red and gold object the size of a pigeon's egg. It looked a bit like a human heart.
Looking at the densely packed English and Korean words, Yang Cheng asked curiously, "Buddhist Heart Sarira discovered by Korean archaeologists? What is this, a Sarira? "
"It's not as simple as a Sarira." Jane took a sip of the black tea and gave Tang Wan a thumbs up. She explained, "Usually, after a senior monk passes away, the Sarira left behind is a Buddhist Bone Sarira.
In essence, the Buddhist Bone Sarira is made up of many phosphates and carbonates. It can also be said that it is the product of carbon rearrangement under high temperatures.
However, this newly discovered Buddha Heart Sarira was formed from the heart of an enlightened monk. This discovery has shocked the Buddhist associations around the world. "
"You and Qinger have been studying it for so many days. Do you think that this Sarira can help me subdue the Chaos?" Yang Cheng found it unbelievable.
Hsiao Chih-ching said sternly, "Hubby, if this Sarira is real, then it's very likely that it's not just an ordinary Sarira.
I once read some books about Buddhist cultivators in ancient times. The real Western Buddhist sages, Great Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and even Golden Arhats all walked the path of Mahayana Buddhism.
The Mahayana Buddhist Dharma emphasized that achieving the Dao by oneself was a small Dao, while saving all living beings was the Great Dao.
Those who attained the Great Dao and delivered all living beings from suffering would be able to attain the Zhang Six Golden Body, immortal and indestructible, able to change and transform, vast and divine.
In other words, a true Buddhist Great Venerate wouldn't just have their bones turn into sariras. Their organs, limbs, and bones would all transform into Buddhist Golden Bodies.
The Buddha-nature was the Buddha-heart. In order to cultivate the Golden Body of Buddha, the first step was to cultivate the Buddha-heart.
If this Sarira was really the Buddha-heart, then it was very likely that it was left behind by a Buddhist Great Venerate who hadn't attained immortality and indestructibility.
Even if he was already dead, the Buddha-heart could still be left behind. It was enough to show that it already had the Buddhist Karma to deliver all living beings from suffering.
As I said before, although Chaos can devour all living beings and is almost immortal and indestructible, it's ultimately too violent. It can't abandon its mortal thoughts and doesn't understand the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, it can only be ranked together with the other three ferocious beasts as the four great ancient ferocious beasts. It's hard for it to truly be conferred as a god.
If hubby could have the Buddha-heart condensed from the Mahayana Buddhist Dharma to protect your body, you might be able to suppress Chaos. After all, Chaos hasn't recovered its heaven-reaching ferocious power from ancient times. "
Yang Cheng's eyes lit up. Being able to meet Hsiao Chih-ching was indeed a great favor from the heavens. So there was such a saying.
He didn't have the chance to go to the hidden clans to read the ancient books and records passed down from ancient times. Fortunately, Hsiao Chih-ching told him.
But then, Yang Cheng thought for a while and frowned. "I'm worried that it's not fake. After all, you haven't seen it with your own eyes."
Jane shrugged. "This relic was sent to the nearest research institute for testing as an unknown object. The Korean scientist who tested it, Zhang Ru, happened to be my student. I've already asked her, and she wouldn't dare to lie to me.
It's hard to determine the specific age of this relic. It was found in a noble graveyard more than 2,000 years ago, but the relic was obviously formed earlier than that era.
Although it was found in Pusan, Korea, the tomb was the tomb of an ancient general of Hua Xia. It should be a general at that time who took this Buddha Heart Relic to protect his own safety. "
Hsiao Chih-ching giggled. "Hubby, do you know that Korea has been making a big fuss? They said that the Buddha Heart Relic is in Korea, and the root of Buddhism is in Korea.
And the Koreans also said that Vairocana is also from Korea. Guanyin, Dipankara, and even Shaolin's Patriarch Bodhidharma are from Korea. I'm dying of laughter! "
Yang Cheng covered his forehead. He didn't think there was anything strange about this. Korea would definitely deny the news that this general was from Hua Xia. How could the Koreans give up such a good opportunity to "show the prestige of their country"?
However, with the news being reported by the major media all over the world, Yang Cheng felt that it was more difficult to deal with it.
"This thing … If it's real, it might indeed have extraordinary power. After all, the ancients would only put valuable things in the tomb. And at that time, cultivators didn't live in seclusion like they do now. It's not impossible for some high-ranking officials and dignitaries to get some treasures. "Yang Cheng sighed." It's just that … Now the whole world is staring at this Buddha Heart Relic. If I go and snatch it directly, it might cause trouble. "
Just thinking about the Buddhist Association all over the world looking for him to reason with, Yang Cheng felt like he was going to collapse. He couldn't possibly become the enemy of all the Buddhist believers in the world, right?
Hsiao Chih-ching rolled her eyes cutely, "Idiot hubby, do you only have robbing and killing in your mind? Can't you approach the relic legitimately? "
"Legitimately?" Yang Cheng blinked, "Qing Er, you want me to buy it? That's too ridiculous. No matter if it ends up in Korea or some holy land of Buddhism, they won't sell this thing. "
"There are Buddhist associations all over the world, and no one is willing to give it up. I think in the end, the Korean government can only place it in some important Buddhist temple. Since that's the case, hubby, why don't you contact the Korean government directly and let them take a closer look at it? "Hsiao Chih-ching smiled mischievously.
"It's fine if it's useless, but if it's useful, then wouldn't I have to snatch it away?" Yang Cheng spread his hands.
At this time, Jane shook her finger, "My dear husband, Yang Cheng, don't worry. I have already thought of a countermeasure."
Looking at Jane's secretive smile, Yang Cheng felt a headache coming on. What the hell were these two women thinking of …
But no matter what, he still had to go to Korea. Yang Cheng didn't want to let go of any opportunity. If he didn't recover his cultivation, God knew when Hongmeng would come to seek revenge and rob him. He couldn't stop them.
Jane also went with Yang Cheng. Firstly, she wanted to see her student, Zhang Ru, and secondly, she was the one who could help the most.
Because Hsiao Chih-ching didn't have much ability to protect herself, and she was afraid that Mother Wang would worry, she had to give up. Anyway, they could contact each other by phone at any time.
With Tang Wan taking care of them at home, Yang Cheng didn't think that Lanlan would need his "useless" father. It was just a few days away.
Apart from saying that she wanted a lot of gifts with a serious face, the chubby little girl didn't say anything else, such as "Daddy, I will miss you very much" and so on. This made Yang Cheng feel hurt. Which bastard said that daughters were sweet little cotton-padded jackets?
The plane was flying to Seoul. Naturally, Yang Cheng couldn't help but think of Zhenxiu. This girl called him once before the New Year, but when Yang Cheng called back, the person who answered was Eunjung.
Later, Zhenxiu didn't call again. Yang Cheng himself had things coming one after another, so he didn't care too much. After all, he wasn't a person who liked to call, and he didn't have the habit of calling his women.
He didn't know if Lin Ruoxi had called Zhenxiu, but he didn't hear the woman mention it, so he guessed that she didn't.
At this moment, Zhenxiu didn't call again. Yang Cheng thought that the girl should be busy in college, or she listened to her grandfather's words and decided to marry Kim Jip.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The little girl who used to be a vendor would have such a day. Yang Cheng couldn't wait to see how she was.
However, Yang Cheng didn't call in advance to inform her. Instead, after flying to Seoul with Jane, he asked her student, Zhang Ru, to pick them up and then give Zhenxiu a surprise.
