Chapter 1062 Bodhi Temple

Tianlong Zen Master is the respectful title given to the abbot by people, because what he is best at is controlling the golden dragon to subdue demons and monsters.

If nothing unexpected happens, Fahai will inherit this magical power and the household name in the future.

“Is there another Jinshan Temple?”

Amber asked back with a smile.

The little monk's expression visibly improved. "Hey, it turns out to be you, Senior Brother. It was a misunderstanding, really a misunderstanding."

"Oh? You're not afraid of me killing people anymore?"

Amber asked with some amusement when she saw him like this.

"Ugh, scared!"

The little monk's smile froze, but he immediately continued, "But first of all, you are a senior disciple of Jinshan Temple, and your Buddhist practice must be higher than mine. Another thing is that Mr. Zhou is not a good person, and he deserves this retribution."

Amber shook his head at these somewhat self-evident words, but now was not the time to talk about these things. He needed to find out what was going on in Qiandeng Town first before he could plan the next step.

If it is really hopeless, then we have no choice but to use some other methods.

Because before coming here, his plan was to use his six-foot-tall golden body to show off his magical powers, and then plan some things to fool the people in the town.

But after a day of contact, Amber found that this alone would not have any effect at all.

"I am Fa Ming, a disciple of the Fa generation of Jinshan Temple. I have been ordered by the abbot to come to Qiandeng Town to convert the townspeople."

"Greetings, Senior Brother Fa Ming!"

The little monk immediately bowed respectfully, but when he raised his head, his expression was a little strange: "I'm afraid these townspeople are not so easy to convert."

"It's okay. Where there is sincerity, even metal and stone can be broken."

Amber smiled slightly, "Junior brother, you haven't introduced yourself yet."

"Ah, this monk is called Xingzhen."

The young monk was flattered. "Brother Faming, are you here to stay? The Bodhi Temple is small. If the hospitality is not good enough, please forgive me."

"It's okay. Monks don't care about these things."

Amber took the wine gourd at his waist in his hand and gulped down a mouthful.

Just at this moment, Sanhua, who was hiding in the bag, popped out his pointed little head and stared at the little monk.

"Wine? Wine!"

Xingzhen was stunned, and his small worldview suffered a huge impact.

"Hmm? You want to drink?"

Amber raised the gourd and said, "No one can touch my wine. If you really want to drink it, I'll take you to the town to taste it when I have the chance."

"Amitabha!"

Xingzhen immediately chanted the Buddha's name.

"I don't drink alcohol. Brother Fa Ming, please don't drink. It's against the rules and regulations!"

"I just killed something."

Amber touched his little bald head and said, "Okay, okay, take me in to have a look."

Xing Zhen was helpless and didn't dare to say anything more. He turned around, opened the mountain gate completely, and led the way in front.

The Bodhi Temple is very small and is completely different from the Jinshan Temple. Only one main hall is decent, while the rest are just thatched huts made of mud bricks.

"There is no incense in the temple, so my master and I live on the few acres of land in the back mountain."

Xingzhen introduced to Amber: "On the left is the dining hall for eating, and on the right is where we sleep. There happens to be an empty room inside. I will go and clean it up later, and you can stay there."

"Well, there's no rush."

Amber found a stone bench to sit down and took the calico cat out of the bag.

As soon as the latter's feet touched the ground, he ran away.

The young monk Xingzhen stared blankly until it was completely out of sight before he looked away.

“This cat is so cute.”

He whispered, "I also raised one before, but it died of old age. I buried it behind the meditation room, and grass grew on it." "Sanhua is not afraid of people. When you come back, you can be intimate with it."

Amber smiled.

"okay!"

Xing Zhen was startled, but seemed to have thought of something, and said seriously: "The rich man Zhou has some connections in the town, and his brother-in-law is the mayor's steward. Brother, convert him, and I'm afraid there will be some trouble next."

"That's a small matter."

Amber waved her hand nonchalantly, "Tell me about what's happening in town. Before I came here, the abbot told me that he wanted me to spread Buddhism here. Do you have any suggestions?"

"Well, to be honest, the people in Qiandeng Town are all faithless. They only recognize silver and fists."

Xingzhen said cautiously: "I heard from my master that if you want to convert the townspeople in this town, you must be the reincarnation of Buddha."

This answer did not surprise Amber.

Fortunately, he himself had no intention of really following the example of those great monks and doing things like cutting flesh to feed the eagle and warning the world.

What means are used in the end depends on how stubborn the people here are.

After all, Amber never thought that she was really a monk. Everything she has now is just an identity.

Similarly, he wanted the Tathagata Palm, which was his goal, and converting the townspeople was just a means to achieve his goal.

This is very important.

"Is there any good house in town with a good reputation?"

"That's really not the case."

When Xingzhen talked about this, his face was full of helplessness. "Brother, you may not be impressed just by what I say, but you will know if you just go to the town and walk around more."

Amber nodded when she heard this, and without continuing the topic, she stood up and followed him towards the meditation room.

There was indeed a small empty room inside, but it was filled with a lot of miscellaneous items. A bed made of wooden boards was placed against the wall, with many clay Buddha statues on it.

"Brother, you take a rest first, I will clean it up."

"Let me help you with it. Let's finish it sooner and rest earlier."

"Then, Senior Brother, please put the things on the bed outside first. I'll go get you a blanket."

After a busy period, by the time the room was completely vacated, it was already noon.

Xingzhen was covered in dust, but there was a smile on his face.

"I'm going to prepare the vegetarian meal. Brother, please sit down for a while."

"Just make your own."

Amber shook her head and said, "I'm going to go walk around town."

Xing is really a little envious.

After all, I am still young and I still yearn for the prosperity of the outside world.

"Want something to eat? I'll bring you something."

Seeing him like this, Amber smiled and spoke.

“Zhou Ji’s vegetarian buns!”

Xing Zhen responded subconsciously, then realized what he had said, and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, brother, go eat by yourself."

After saying that, he ran out as if he was avoiding some ferocious beast.

Seeing his panic, Amber smiled and shook her head. She put down her things and went out with the silver and wine gourd in her pocket.

The temple was quiet and there was no sign of Xingzhen. He stood there and waited for a while, but when he didn't see Sanhua come back, he left the temple alone.

It takes about a quarter of an hour to walk from here to the town. There are many teahouses on the roadside, but business is not very good and they are all deserted.

Amber wanted to go over and talk to him, but before she could get close, the boss who was sitting on the stool stood up with a gloomy face.

"Go away, go away. I haven't opened the shop yet, don't come over here to get scolded, you monk!"

With this attitude, no wonder they haven't opened yet at noon.
