Chapter 268 Theft
After Wang Xuance translated Narāl Suopomei's words to Li Er, Li Er's breathing became rapid!
"Are you serious? Can you really live another 500 years?" Li Er couldn't believe it.
Wang Xuance translated Li Er's words to Narāl Suopomei, who nodded and said, "More than 500 years, as long as you can keep taking the elixir I refine, immortality is not a problem."
After listening to Wang Xuance's translation, Li Er was overjoyed. As long as he could live forever, the Tang Dynasty would be able to live forever under his rule!
"Okay, from now on, you will refine the elixir for me. I will order people to collect the necessary medicinal materials. You will refine the elixir for me in Jinbiaomen." Li Er said, and arranged the Indian alchemist.
Wang Xuance took Naluoer Suopomei out to thank him and then took him to Jinbiaomen. From now on, Naluoer Suopomei's food, clothing, housing and transportation would all be provided by Jinbiaomen, and there would be someone to take care of his daily life. Naluoer Suopomei
only needed to refine the elixir of immortality for Li Er, and Wang Xuance would act as his translator.
Li Er was worried about Naluoer Suopomei and was afraid that he would deceive him. In addition to Wang Xuance, Li Er also sent Cui Guoli, the Minister of War, to supervise him in refining the elixir of immortality.
Li Er sent people to search for rare medicines and stones all over the country to refine the elixir of immortality.
When Li Chengqian heard about this, he smiled and said nothing. He knew in his heart that there was no elixir of immortality in this world.
It seems that Li Er really died from taking this so-called elixir of life.
No one stood up to dissuade Li Er from his crazy behavior. Now Li Er is obsessed with alchemists to the point of being obsessed.
He no longer listens to anyone's advice. If anyone dares to give him advice, Li Er will definitely regard the other party as someone with ulterior motives.
Therefore, many people know that the elixir of life is fake, but no one dares to stand up and advise Li Er. No one wants to die miserably.
As for Li Chengqian, it is even more impossible! As long as he persists for a while longer, Li Er will definitely die, and then he will be the new master of this empire.
Why should he anger Li Er, who has already gone crazy, at this time? It would be a loss.
In addition to ordering people to refine the elixir of life, Li Er also ordered people to invite Xuanzang to preach to him.
Xuanzang naturally would not miss this opportunity to promote Buddhism. After all, only by dealing with Emperor Li Er, Buddhism could flourish in the Tang Dynasty.
But then again, Naruluo Suopomei's deception skills were really amazing. Within two days, the Minister of War Cui Guoli was directly deceived!
Cui Guoli tried his best to speak well of Naruluo Suopomei in front of Li Er, saying that he was proficient in Buddhism and had great skills.
Naruluo Suopomei was simply a master of MLM in the northern school, otherwise he would not have deceived Wang Xuance and Cui Guoli and others into becoming his fans.
On the other hand, Princess Gaoyang sneaked out of the mansion to meet her lover, the monk Bianji. They had not seen each other for a long time since Bianji went to Tianzhu with Wang Xuance. As
soon as they met, they were attracted to each other. They were like lacquer and glue, and they made love. It was the so-called a short separation is better than a new marriage.
Princess Gaoyang and Bianji snuggled together and told each other about their longing for each other. Fang Yiai felt a little jealous.
"You have no conscience. Since you left Chang'an for Tianzhu, I have been worried about you every day, but what about you? What are you doing?" Princess Gaoyang complained.
"Of course I miss you, especially after I was caught by Alonashun, I was thinking about you all the time, and I was afraid that I would not be able to come back..." Bianji said.
"Don't say anything! As long as you have me in your heart, that's enough!" Princess Gaoyang stretched out her hand to stop Bian Ji from speaking.
Princess Gaoyang got up and dressed, took out her jade pillow and said, "This is something my father gave me. I treat it as a treasure and never leave it. I'm giving it to you today."
"How can I accept such a precious thing? No, no!" Bian Ji waved his hand and refused.
"Just take it. When I'm by your side, take it out and look at it, just as if I'm by your side." Princess Gaoyang forced the jade pillow into Bian Ji's hands, not allowing him to say anything more.
Bian Ji put the jade pillow away carefully, and then reluctantly sent Princess Gaoyang out of the door, looking at Princess Gaoyang's figure going away.
Bian Ji turned and left this secret place where they had met, and returned to the temple. He still had to help Xuan Zang translate Buddhist scriptures.
"Where are you going so early in the morning?" As soon as he entered the temple, Bian Ji met Xuan Zang, and Xuan Zang asked.
"My disciple has been feeling a little depressed recently, so I went down the mountain for a walk!" Bian Ji said, trying his best to cover it up, for fear that Xuan Zang would see something.
"Are you feeling better now?" Xuan
Zang asked. "Much better. I don't feel so depressed after going down the mountain for a walk." Bian Ji said.
Bian Ji followed Xuan Zang to the meditation room. After Xuan Zang poured Bian Ji a cup of tea, he preached Buddhism to Bian Ji.
This lecture lasted for half an hour. Xuanzang said, "You should meditate on the true meaning of Buddhism here! I hope that one day you can realize the emptiness of the four elements and understand the true meaning of Buddhism. Then you will be close to becoming a Buddha!"
Xuanzang said, and got up and left the meditation room. He only gave Bian Ji half an hour to comprehend Buddhism. Whether he could finally understand Buddhism depends on his own luck!
How could a person like Bian Ji, who had a worldly mind and incomplete six senses, realize the emptiness of the four elements, let alone realize Buddhism!
After half an hour, Bian Ji put the jade pillow given by Princess Gaoyang under his pillow, and went to help Xuanzang translate Buddhist scriptures.
As soon as the debater left, a thief sneaked in. The thief had already scouted the spot in the past few days and took action today.
Although there were no valuables in the temple, there were still some valuables. The thief searched the rooms one by one, but did not find much money.
After working for a long time, he only found three copper plates. The thief felt that this trip was in vain.
Such a big temple, but there were only three copper plates, not as rich as ordinary people.
If I haven't stolen anything valuable, I will leave here and steal somewhere else, the thief thought to himself.
The thief searched the room and found a jade pillow under the debater's pillow.
The thief's eyes lit up immediately. The jade pillow was in good condition! It should be able to be exchanged for a lot of silver.
The thief entered the room happily and slipped out of the temple before anyone noticed. He was anxious to sell the jade pillow and exchange it for a lot of silver so that he could live a carefree life.
