Zhang Feng smiled. Xuanzang finally understood. He looked at Xuanzang seriously and said, "Xuanzang, the first thing you need to do when you go to India is to make friends with the local Buddhists. You should know that Buddhism is the national religion in India. You can participate in national and political affairs. As long as you make friends with the local Buddhists, you might be able to get some information."
"This …"
Xuanzang was hesitant.
He was a monk, and a monk who adhered to his principles.
It was indeed difficult for him to make friends with the Buddhists in India.
Zhang Feng saw Xuanzang's hesitation and quickly said, "Xuanzang, don't you want to save the people of the Tang Dynasty? You must know that your information could save tens of thousands of lives and soldiers. It might even resolve the conflict between the two countries. "
Save tens of thousands of lives and soldiers?
Resolve the conflict between the two countries?
Xuanzang was shocked. He felt his blood boiling.
Why did he become a monk?
Wasn't it to save the people?
If what Master said was true, then he would have done a great service.
He nodded without hesitation and said, "Master, I am willing to go."
Zhang Feng was overjoyed. He smiled and said, "Good. When the time comes, Master will arrange for guards to protect you."
Xuanzang nodded. His heart had already flown to India, wandering in the world of salvation.
Li Shimin gave Zhang Feng a look of admiration. To be honest, this was the first time he met someone who was so good at talking. Even the officials in the imperial court were not as good as Zhang Feng. Moreover, Xuanzang actually believed him. It was really strange. However, this was a good thing. As long as Xuanzang went to India, it was equivalent to stabbing a thorn in India's side. It would be impossible to pull it out in the future.
"Master, since the matter is settled, I will take my leave."
Xuanzang stood up. He had to go back and prepare for his trip to India.
"Leaving so soon?"
Zhang Feng looked reluctant. In fact, he had long wanted this guy to leave. Although this cheap disciple was a good person, he was a little dull and talkative. Zhang Feng couldn't stand it, but he couldn't show it because he still needed this guy to go to India. He could only force a smile and said, "I wanted to talk to you through the night. I didn't expect you to leave so soon."
Xuanzang put his palms together and said sincerely, "Master, I have to go back and prepare for my trip to India. I will listen to your teachings when I come back."
"When you come back?"
Zhang Feng deliberately raised his voice and looked at Xuanzang with a sad face, "We have just met today and we have to leave. How long do I have to wait?"
Li Shimin's mouth twitched as he watched from the side. He didn't believe that Feng Zi would have such deep feelings for Xuanzang on their first meeting. He even put on a sorrowful expression. He was obviously trying to bribe Xuanzang.
When he looked at Xuanzang, the corners of his eyes were moist. He looked at Zhang Feng and said, "Xuanzang appreciates Master's kindness. But for the sake of imparting the Buddhist scriptures, I have to go to India. When I return in the future, we can reunite."
"Wait."
Zhang Feng stopped Xuanzang and said sincerely, "Xuanzang, I didn't expect you to be so sincere to me. Let me give you a big gift."
After that, he didn't wait for Xuanzang to respond and shouted, "Old Du, prepare me a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone."
Xuanzang was a little confused.
What was this cheap master trying to do?
He was about to leave, but he stopped him and said that he was going to give him something. And it looked like it was going to be calligraphy.
He had heard of his master's calligraphy in the past. It was said that every piece was thought-provoking and priceless. What would it be this time?
Just as he was thinking, Du Ziteng walked in with the four treasures of the study in his hands.
Zhang Feng took the brush and ink and looked at Xuanzang. He smiled and said, "Xuanzang, I know that your journey to India is very long. It's a good thing that I know the route. Today, I will draw a map for you …"
Boom …
Xuanzang's mind exploded.
Did he hear wrongly?
His master knew the way to India?
How was that possible?
That was a distance of fifty thousand miles!
How did his master do it?
Could it be that his master had surpassed mortals?
He was a little confused and a little in disbelief.
At this moment, Zhang Feng stretched out his hand and started writing on the paper.
Xuanzang's pupils shrank. He realized that what his master said was true.
His master had really drawn a route to India?
Li Shimin also had a look of disbelief on his face.
He widened his eyes, as if he didn't want to miss a single detail.
He didn't think that Feng Zi would know the way to India.
That was a distance of fifty thousand miles.
How did this kid do it?
Just as he was puzzled, Zhang Feng said, "Xuanzang, if you depart from Chang 'an, you'll probably have to pass through Gaochang, Jiabishu, Chi Jianguo, and a few other countries. Then, you'll reach Qiuci City, and then Sahu Jianguo …"
