Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5509 Rebellion

The monk's expression relaxed a little.

"Since we can't make a decision for the time being..."

"Let's put this matter aside for now."

"Maybe when you didn't notice..."

“You have your answer.”

……

"Don't force it."

“Don’t get stuck in a rut.”

The monk smiled.

“Don’t let yourself go.”

“Listen to what others say.”

“And listen to your own thoughts.”

"Listen to both sides and you will be enlightened, but listen to only one side and you will be in the dark."

……

The young scholar's expression gradually became thoughtful and soft.

"……OK."

"Grandmaster."

"I see."

"Thank you, Master."

……

The monk shook his head.

"The donor is very polite."

"I didn't do anything."

"I have long understood my own limitations."

I also came to terms with myself.

"You found a way for yourself."

“I hope you can continue along this path.”

“Until the end.”

……

"I will."

The young scholar nodded.

“I hate people who don’t keep their promises.”

“I won’t be that person.”

……

The monk smiled and nodded.

……

The woodcutter, the woman, the young scholar and the monk said goodbye.

They walked towards the temple gate.

Passing by the main entrance hall, several people stopped at the same time.

Look at the golden Buddha statue in the main hall.

……

"Light some incense."

The woodcutter walked towards the hall.

……

The woman and the young scholar followed behind.

……

Several people burned incense very piously.

Recite your wishes silently in your heart.

……

Stepping out of the hall again, everyone looked more relaxed.

……

"younger brother."

The woodcutter looked at the young scholar.

"The last time."

"For the next three months, we won't take you anywhere or do anything unless you ask for it."

……

"it is good."

The young scholar nodded.

He turned around.

They were now at the threshold of the temple.

The upper body of the golden Buddha in the main hall was blocked.

Only the lower half of the body, which seemed to be shrouded in mist, could be seen.

There is a constant stream of pilgrims visiting the temple.

Looks pious.

Full of expectations.

……

Wasn't that how they were then?

The young scholar smiled slightly.

……

"younger brother?"

The woodcutter called out, "What's wrong?"

He took a few steps and realized something was wrong. He turned around and saw the young scholar standing at the door in a daze.

He felt somewhat doubtful.

……

"fine."

The young scholar shook his head.

He turned and walked towards the woodcutter and the woman.

"It just occurred to me that..."

"never mind."

The young scholar shook his head.

“This idea is extremely rebellious.”

"No more."

……

what?
The woodcutter and the woman looked at each other.

what?
Treason?
……

"what?"

The woodcutter asked,

"What is this treason?"

Wouldn’t the young scholar’s ​​words make them even more curious?

This is extremely treasonous...

Such a serious word...

……

The young scholar shook his head.

"nothing."

"It was just a whim of mine."

……

"younger brother."

The woodcutter pretended to look stern.

……

Curiosity also appeared on the woman's face.

Saying half and keeping half really arouses people's curiosity the most.

...The young scholar took a few steps and found that the woodcutter and the woman were still staring at him, as if they would not give up until they heard the answer. He felt helpless.

"It's nothing really."

"It's just my own random thoughts."

"You will definitely laugh at me when you hear this."

.....
"will not."

The woodcutter was firm.

"We will never laugh at you."

"We promise."

"Can you tell me?"

……

“…You want to know so much?”

The young scholar looked at the woodcutter and then at the girl.

……

The two nodded at the same time.

……

The young scholar looked up.

Looking at the blue sky, I smiled for some unknown reason.

"Ok."

"I'm telling you."

……

For some reason, the woodcutter and the girl felt a little nervous.

They pricked up their ears.

Waiting for the next words from the young scholar.

……

The young scholar squinted at the sun.

"I just saw how pious everyone was towards the Buddha..."

"Buddha is their spiritual sustenance."

“They believe in Buddha so much…”

"Will..."

"Some people also saw the Buddha..."

Wasn't it said that he wanted to succeed in the exam so badly that he imagined a being to bless him with success?
Those who come to the temple to pray...

Aren’t we also coming here with a strong desire, begging, expectation... in our hearts?

The young scholar looked at the woodcutter and the woman.

"like me."

"But no one else saw it except him."

"He will also be suspected of being..."

"Got crazy-"

……

"younger brother!"

The woodcutter interrupted the young scholar loudly.

After saying this, the woodcutter immediately suppressed his nervousness, pretended to be indifferent, and glanced around.

……

Indeed, there were a few passers-by who were startled by the woodcutter's sudden shout.

But he just looked at the woodcutter curiously for a few seconds, and then looked away when he found nothing unusual.

……

The woodcutter breathed a sigh of relief.

"younger brother!"

He looked at the young scholar.

"Don't compare the two!"

Buddha is Buddha.

Monsters are monsters.

are you crazy?
Equating Buddha with a monster?

……

The woodcutter looked shocked and angry.

The woman's face turned pale with fright.

……

The young scholar shrugged slightly.

"I have warned you..."

"That's what you must ask."

……

woodcutter:……

Who knows if what this guy said is true...

It turned out to be such a rebellious statement...

The woodcutter turned and looked.

I felt relieved.

They were some distance away from the temple.

There is no need to worry about the monks in the temple hearing what my brother just said.

Although……

People who don't know my brother's situation probably wouldn't understand what he just said...

but……

Just those vague words...

It was enough to make the monks in the temple feel offended.

……

They clearly came to the temple today to ask the master for help.

He didn't want to end up angering all the monks in the temple and having them apologize in embarrassment.

……

"But……"

The young scholar looked up at the sky again, "It really looks like..."

"Isn't it?"

……

"do not talk!"

The woodcutter shouted in a low voice.

"It doesn't look like it!"

“Not at all!”

Monsters are the imagination of young scholars.

He is the culprit that caused the young scholar to fail the exam!

Buddha is the embodiment of great compassion who protects all living beings.

There is no comparison between the two!
……

Putting them together is an insult to the great Buddha.

……

"younger brother."

The woodcutter spoke sternly.

"There will be no second time."

"Just keep these words rotting in your stomach!"

Do not……

"You don't even want it!"

"Do you understand?!"

"Don't tell anyone else!"

……

"……understood."

After opening and closing his mouth several times, the young scholar nodded.
