Master Zhenyuan sat quietly in his Quiet Room, meditating. Soon, his mind entered a state of meditation, yet his thoughts were plentiful and varied.
With a pretext, all the Scripture Seekers had stayed at Wuzhuang Temple. Although Xuanzang had appeared quite happy, which was baffling, Master Zhenyuan gave it some thought and realized that Xuanzang had no reason to be happy at all, right?
Considering this, could it be that his happy demeanor was deliberately displayed to gain an advantage through retreat, to make me change the method of punishment?
"Humph, his reaction is quite swift. However, the more a thief's conscience is guilty, the louder he speaks. Similarly, since he made a special effort to appear so happy, he must be all the more anxious inside," Master Zhenyuan mused.
