Although they haven't known each other for a long time, Fushimi Ayaka has always firmly believed that Kohoji Temple's abbot Kosuke Aoyama is a man who can constantly surprise her, from the initial idea of providing the god "The Handsome Monk Who Fell in Love with Me", to the shock of the Buddha's face, to the various magical legends about Kohoji Temple that she has heard and seen recently, and even she thinks that it would be a good idea to draw a manga based on the story of Kohoji Temple.

But what she didn't expect was that after just one day of not coming, there were two more things in Kobo Temple that shocked her, the first thing was that she found that Miss Mariko Shinoda, who was also helping out at Kohoji Temple, seemed to have changed her relationship with Master Kosuke Aoyama, yes, Although neither of them said it explicitly, but with her woman's intuition and the cartoonist's attention to detail, she almost judged at a glance that the two of them were no longer ordinary friends, but became boyfriend and girlfriend, but obviously it wasn't like this yesterday, could it be that the two of them were ...... last night

Although this discovery made Fushimi Ayaka feel a trace of indescribable loss and sourness in her heart, she still quickly adjusted, after all, the two of them knew each other much earlier than herself, and she was not sure of her thoughts about this handsome monk before, the only thing that was a little unhappy was that Mariko actually found an excuse to take herself away after the lecture conference yesterday.

After shaking her head and not thinking about it, Fushimi Ayaka focused her attention on the second discovery, which was that Koboji Temple actually had an extra member, but this member was not a human, but a small, cute corgi.

Fushimi Ayaka, who likes puppies very much, immediately pounced, and while trying to pick up the puppy, she asked Aoyama, "Master Aoyama, where did this puppy come from?"

Before Aoyama could stop it, Fushimi Ayaka's hand had already reached out in front of the puppy, and then she saw the puppy's eyes glare, and a terrifying feeling arose, as if what was in front of her at the moment was not a small corgi, but a fierce Bengal tiger, and a terrible tiger that could be devoured by choosing people!

Affected by this feeling, Fushimi Ayaka couldn't help but retreat again and again, and almost sat on the ground, but Aoyama, who was fortunately on the side, hurriedly supported her, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Xiaotian's temperament is fierce, and no one is close to me for the time being." By the way, Xiaotian is its name, I just bought it this morning. ”

Fushimi Ayaka patted her plump murder weapon and said in fear: "It was so scary just now, I feel like I saw a big tiger!"

Aoyama's eyes involuntarily moved up and down twice with the beating of Fushimi Ayaka, and then he said calmly: "Eh, that may be your delusion, but Xiaotian is indeed very fierce, but it's okay, as long as you don't touch him, he won't have such a big reaction." ”

"Yes, actually, I was startled by him when I first came in the morning, but now you see that even if I pass by him, nothing happens, and I think it's good to have a dog like this in the temple, in case a troublemaker comes, Xiaotian alone will be enough to scare him away. Mariko added with a smile on her face, and then glared at Aoyama with displeasure.

For Mariko's glance, Qingshan felt a little aggrieved, didn't he mean it just now, and Xiaotian is not used to scare people, Qingshan, who failed to stay at Marizi's place last night, didn't do anything else after returning to the temple, and all the time was spent studying Xiaotian, the spirit beast that protects the temple.

By the way, in fact, Xiaotian is not the real name of this temple protection spirit beast, his name is actually Roaring Heaven, but Qingshan is afraid that this name is too shocking, so he uses the homonym Xiaotian. And his real ability is quite terrifying, according to Qingshan's test, Xiao Tian can smash a half-meter-thick bluestone in the courtyard with a single click, and he can also automatically sense whether there is hostility around him, and he is definitely worthy of the name of the temple protection spirit beast.

Hearing Mariko's persuasion, and seeing that Xiao Tian no longer looked at herself since she retreated, Fushimi Ayaka's heart finally settled down a little, and then she asked curiously: "Then Master Qingshan, aren't you worried that Xiao Tian will hurt people?"

"Don't worry, without my order, Xiao Tian will scare people like just now, and what you said is right, I'll let Xiao Tian stay in a relatively remote corner later, so that no more curious pilgrims will tease him and be frightened again." ”

Just when a few people were chatting, suddenly a breathless Buddha name came from outside the door: "Amitabha!"

Qingshan looked up, only to see several middle-aged monks in robes, big shoulders and round waists, Shi Shiran walked in under the leadership of an old monk with a lewd face, as soon as he came in, the old monk frowned and looked Qingshan up and down a few times, and then asked Qingshan in a condescending tone: "You are the abbot of Hongfa Temple, Hongsuke Aoyama?"

Aoyama nodded and replied, "That's right, I am, may I ask how many of you are?"

"This is Master Inamoto of the RB Buddhist Association, you little monk don't hurry up and pay a visit!" a stout monk beside the old monk introduced him, and this so-called Master Inamoto seemed to enjoy this kind of flattery.

But Qingshan was unmoved, just simply clasped his hands together and asked in a light tone, "May I ask why Master Inamoto came to the small temple today?"

Aoyama's attitude made this Inamoto master very dissatisfied, so he snorted coldly and said, "I heard that your Kobo Temple has been selling noodles called Buddha noodles recently?

"That's right, it's true, it was launched to the pilgrims on the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva a few days ago......"

Before Qingshan could finish speaking, the old monk Inamoto shouted angrily: "Abbot Qingshan, you are so bold, you actually put the name of the Buddha on a mere noodle, you are blaspheming the Buddha, can you be guilty?!"

Faced with the accusation of the old monk Inamoto, Aoyama smiled disapprovingly and said: "Adding a Buddha character to the noodles is blaspheming the Buddha? Then there are too many people who commit this crime now, you can go to the market or on the Internet to see how many products have words such as Buddha, gods, immortals, etc., ah, by the way, there is a demon king ramen not far away, according to you, should you remove the demon guard?"

PS: In fact, the largest Buddhist consortium in RB is the All-RB Buddhist Church, but it is always taboo in the book.
