"Ti … Junior Brother Ti Pu, you … Who did you say achieved Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit?" Liao Ming was extremely surprised and looked at Xiao Hua with an inconceivable gaze.
Xiao Hua naturally knew that this Buddha light was the Buddhist decree of Leiyin Temple. It was the news of Ci Hui achieving Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit. He no longer concealed it and said with a smile, "Naturally, it's the news of Great Master Ci Hui.
If Senior Brother doesn't believe it, you can quickly return to Jietai Temple to take a look! "
"Good, good, then this poor monk will take his leave!"
Hearing this, Liao Ming unconsciously became anxious. He put his palms together and hurriedly rushed towards the temple without waiting for Xiao Hua to return the greeting.
After all, the addition of a new Bodhisattva in the Pure Land World was a major event in tens of thousands of years. Not to mention the entire Pure Land World would celebrate, even every temple would organize a certain ceremony to celebrate.
Xiao Hua didn't dare to be negligent. He still turned around and put his palms together to send Liao Ming off, thanking him for leading the way.
When Liao Ming's voice disappeared, Xiao Hua raised his eyes and looked at the magnificent scenery of the Pure Land World. He secretly sighed in his heart.
Although he didn't know how Ci Hui achieved Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit, Xiao Hua could guess a thing or two from Guzhen's words. It should have something to do with the Ancient Buddha Fruit.
"My Dao Sect has a secret technique to condense knowledge treasures. Buddhism Sect has Ancient Buddha Fruit. The effect of condensing knowledge treasures is limited. It is useful for cultivators below Nascent Soul stage. This Ancient Buddha Fruit is extraordinary. It can directly allow people to achieve Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit."
Xiao Hua stood in the air and thought to himself, "Moreover, Little Monk Ci Hui … No, it should be Bodhisattva Nanwu Wisdom Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit. Right now, he is only in the Bright Buddha Realm. His strength is somewhat similar to Dao Sect's Jindan. Such a low level of cultivation can actually achieve Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit?
Either Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit has nothing to do with strength, as I said to others before, or Bodhisattva Buddha Fruit will greatly increase his strength and make up for the lack of cultivation!
Also, Buddhism Sect's cultivation is really mysterious. Karma, reincarnation, faith, and so on are all mysterious things. They can actually use them for cultivation. It seems … Buddhism Sect is not simple!
Since this Xiao has obtained the inheritance of the Little Exquisite Temple, I should properly comprehend it and grasp the secrets within. "
Thinking up to this point, Xiao Hua turned around and was about to leave. But right at this moment, Xiao Hua was suddenly startled. "Aiyo, that's not right. There's something else!
The cultivators of the Dao Sect cultivate their entire lives to attain the Dao and become immortals. Once the cultivators of the Dao Sect reach the peak of their cultivation in the mortal world, they will naturally be able to ascend. However, what is the purpose of the Arhat of the Buddhist Sect?
Didn't they want to achieve fruition?
Now that Ci Hui had attained the Buddha Fruit, why didn't he … ascend?
Could it be that the Buddha Lord and Bodhisattva of the Buddhism Sect … did not need to ascend?
If she ascended, how could Ci Hui possibly ascend with her strength? "
The more he thought about it, the more chaotic Xiao Hua's heart became. There was actually some sweat on his forehead. In his heart, he vaguely felt that this was probably another great secret of the Buddhist Sect. It was just like the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth after he broke the seal on Wang Biafei's mysterious dark clouds a few days ago. It was far from what he could know with his current strength!
"Forget it …" Xiao Hua looked at the night sky and sighed. His gaze moved away from the lingering Buddhist light in the sky and looked at the Jinshan Temple that was sent flying by the bat. He thought to himself, "I really have a lot of burdens. Today, I'll quickly settle the matter of Jiang Liuer's death!"
Because he had a favor to ask of the Jinshan Temple, Xiao Hua didn't dare to be too rash. He didn't release his Buddhist sense and flew above the Chen River. After a brief glance, he landed on the riverside. Then, he came out of the river and washed his hands and face. He looked around and looked at the steps from the riverside to the gate of the Jinshan Temple. Putting his palms together, he walked step by step from the foot of the mountain to the gate of the Jinshan Temple.
Looking from midair, the Jinshan Temple wasn't very high. But when he really walked, it still took Xiao Hua nearly the time it took to eat a meal.
Seeing the gate of the Jinshan Temple in front of him, Xiao Hua frowned.
Because when he walked from the riverside to here, he didn't use his Buddhist sense. Moreover, although it was already dark, it wasn't night yet. The gate of the Jinshan Temple was still closed.
In particular, just now, the Buddhist bell of the Jinshan Temple rang 19 times. Everyone in the Jietai Temple knew that there would be a ceremony to celebrate in the temple. Although the Jinshan Temple was smaller than the Jietai Temple, the abbot of the Jinshan Temple was Great Zen Master Jimie. His seniority was much higher than that of the Jietai Temple's Xin Chan. How could the Jinshan Temple not celebrate?
What if there was no ceremony?
Xiao Hua frowned and pondered. He had already arrived in front of the gate of the Jinshan Temple. The gate of the Jinshan Temple wasn't bright and couldn't be compared with that of the Jietai Temple. But it definitely wasn't shabby. It seemed that the incense was good.
Looking at the bronze door knocker that didn't move in the wind, Xiao Hua raised his hand and was about to slap it …
At this time, Xiao Hua suddenly smelled a pungent wine fragrance. Within the wine fragrance was a very tempting mellow fragrance. Xiao Hua was absolutely familiar with this fragrance, but he hadn't smelled it for a long time. It was the ordinary fragrance of meat in the mortal world.
Xiao Hua wryly smiled. His hand immediately froze in the air. "Creak …" The gate of the Jinshan Temple opened, revealing a small gap. A tall and fat monk with a lotus leaf pouch in one hand and a wine jar under his other arm opened the door while looking back. He was tiptoeing out of the temple.
Xiao Hua saw this and was about to speak. The fat monk just happened to turn his head and saw Xiao Hua's hand. He unconsciously screamed, "Ah!!" It seemed that he was scared. The lotus leaf pouch and wine jar in his hand immediately fell down …
Seeing that the wine jar was about to shatter and the meat in the lotus leaf pouch fell into the dust, Xiao Hua helplessly waved his hand and the two landed smoothly on the ground.
"Little Monk … you want to scare me to death!
Do you not want to live anymore? "
At this time, the fat Monk Jiu Rou regained his wits and immediately became furious. He raised his alms bowl-sized fist and smashed it towards Xiao Hua's nose!
"Amitabha …" Xiao Hua extended a finger and pointed it at Monk Jiu Rou's fist. Monk Jiu Rou immediately felt as if he was struck by lightning. All the fat on his body was rapidly trembling.
Monk Jiu Rou's eyes were filled with horror. He hurriedly kneeled on the ground and cried: "Grandpa, spare me, spare me …"
"Get up …" Xiao Hua coldly shouted: "This little monk is Ti Pu. Today, I came to see Great Zen Master Nirvana!"
"Greetings Junior Brother, Martial Uncle!"
Monk Jiu Rou hurriedly got up from the ground and clasped his hands together: "This little monk Ming Shen greets Martial Uncle!"
"Okay." Xiao Hua nodded: "Why aren't you going to help this little monk inform him?"
"This …" Ming Shen opened his mouth and wanted to say something. However, he saw Xiao Hua slightly lowering his head to look at the wine jar and lotus leaf bag on the ground. How could he dare to talk back? He whispered: "Martial Uncle, please wait a moment. This little monk will immediately help you inform him!"
Saying this, he revealed a charming smile and lowered his head to grab the wine jar and lotus leaf bag. He quickly ran past Xiao Hua's side and rushed into the forest next to the temple.
Not long after, he hurriedly ran back and rushed into the Jinshan Temple. When he ran past Xiao Hua, he didn't forget to whisper: "Martial Uncle, please wait a moment. This little monk will immediately return."
Sure enough, not long after Ming Shen entered the temple, an old monk came over with a lantern in his hand. This old monk's eyes were muddy. He was clearly not a senior monk who specialized in Buddhist arts.
The old monk walked in front of the temple door and opened it. He looked at Xiao Hua who was respectfully standing at the door and asked: "Little Monk, you are called Ti Pu?"
"Yes, this little monk is called Ti Pu. I came to visit Great Zen Master Nirvana." Xiao Hua clasped his hands together and didn't dare to be negligent.
"Amitabha, this old monk is Yong Zhong."
As soon as the old monk opened his mouth, Xiao Hua was startled. This "Yong" character's seniority was really high. He didn't even know how to address him.
"Hehe, you can just call this old monk Martial Uncle!"
The old monk Yong Zhong seemed to like this kind of surprise very much. He smiled and said: "Did you come to the Jinshan Temple for a visit?"
"Ah?"
Xiao Hua once again bitterly smiled. Although this Yong Zhong was not as old as the old monk of the Exquisite Temple, his ears were just as bad. He could only say again: "Okay, Martial Uncle knows. This little monk came to visit Great Zen Master."
"Oh, you haven't eaten yet. Come, little monk, come with this old monk. Ming Shen and the others have just eaten. There is still some left in the vegetarian restaurant. You can eat to fill your stomach!" The old monk Yong Zhong smiled and stretched out his hand to grab Xiao Hua's wrist.
Xiao Hua was surprised. As long as it was a cultivator, even if they were very familiar with each other, it was impossible for them to hand their wrist to others.
Who knew if others had other thoughts? As long as they got close, his life might be in great danger.
However, Xiao Hua didn't bat an eyelid. He stretched out his hand to hold the old monk's arm and smiled: "Martial Uncle is old, let this disciple help Martial Uncle!"
"Okay, okay!"
The old monk Yong Zhong smiled. He took the lantern and turned around. With Xiao Hua's help, he walked into the temple and said: "Nowadays, there are very few sensible little monks like you. This old monk is busy in the temple all day long. I don't see Ming Shen and the others helping this old monk … Alas, it's really getting worse with each generation!"
Xiao Hua smiled and didn't speak. He looked around and roughly looked at the front yard of the Jinshan Temple.
There was nothing special about the front yard of the Jinshan Temple. It was similar to the Jietai Temple and even the Little Golden Temple. It was just a large open space. Facing the temple gate was the main hall. On both sides of the main hall were side halls. At this time, except for the faint candles in the main hall, the side halls were dark.
What made Xiao Hua laugh was that when he looked towards the side hall, the monk named Ming Shen was squatting down and sneaking past the front of the side hall. He was fleeing towards the temple gate that had yet to be closed.
After walking through the main hall, the sound of chanting could be heard. Xiao Hua's gaze swept across the hall, only to see a golden statue of a Buddha covered in red cloth beside it. Below the statue, there were two large red candles. One of them was only burning halfway and had already been extinguished, while the other was about to burn out, its flame already dim.
In front of the altar, a dozen monks of different ages were sitting cross-legged in an uneven manner. These monks were sitting crookedly, and each of them looked listless.
