Huo Yuanzhen got down from the table and said to the two: "Two senior brothers, how is your income today?"

"Ahh、、、h

Huo Yuanzhen smiled secretly in his heart, everyone wants to eat, and the same goes for monks.

"Okay, two senior brothers, then let's divide the money on the spot, and then leave here."

The two monks glanced at each other, and the older one said: "This junior brother, I can't hide it, our senior brothers have long been out of the temple, and now they are wandering around, there are those who have not eaten, and they don't dare to go anywhere, just now I heard the junior brother say that you are from Shaolin Temple, presumably it is the Zen temple where you are, I don't know what is the situation of your temple?"

"It's coming!".

Huo Yuan was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was silent, and he muttered for a while: "Our temple is also newly built, and there are two people besides me."

"Those two people are Lingshi?".

"My master has already passed away a few days ago."

"Amitabha!".

The two monks bowed their heads, expressed their condolences, and then said, "Then I wonder if your temple can accept foreign monks?"

"Although there is no precedent for this, I have now taken over as the abbot of this temple, if it is a person with good conduct and is not greedy or possessive, it can naturally be considered."

"Abbot!".

The two monks were taken aback, but they didn't expect that the monk in front of them who was asking for food was actually the abbot, which was really unseemly.

"It turned out to be the abbot master, and the poor monk and brother were disrespectful."

The two monks hurriedly gave Huo Yuanzhen a gift, this time it was a real gift, not perfunctory, the Buddhists are very disciplined, what a noble identity the abbot is, how can they be compared to the two monks who don't even have a temple.

Huo Yuanzhen nodded slightly, and also made a mockery.

Seeing Huo Yuanzhen's reservedness, the monk hurriedly handed over all the money to Huo Yuanzhen.

"Master Abbot, our senior brothers have not contributed to the earning of this money, and it is useless, so you should take it back."

"Then what's so embarrassing? Let's say it's half for one person."

Huo Yuanzhen was polite in his mouth, but he took the money and didn't mean to let go at all.

The monk glanced at the copper plates and silver pairs, tried to retract his gaze, calmed his mind, and said to Huo Yuanzhen: " Master Abbot, although monks should not be greedy for money, but we also need money, but also to eat, after all, it is not safe to rely on karma alone, it is still a little bit of a spare, but we have been wandering for several years, knowing that money is not spent for a long time, even if the money is given to us, I am afraid that it will not last for half a year, we see that the abbot master is talented, and he will definitely be able to carry forward the Dharma in the future, and we are willing to join your temple, so as to settle down."

"Since that's the case、、、 well, seeing that you two admire me Shaolin so much, then I reluctantly agreed, you can follow me up the mountain today."

The matter was done, Huo Yuanzhen also took a little pinch and put away the money.

He really needs money now, not to mention that there is no food in the mountains, and he has several things that need to spend a lot of money.

The buildings in the temple can be drawn by drawing construction tokens, but there are a few items that cannot be drawn, such as the temple needs to be leveled, and then the bluestone is paved, which requires money.

Huo Yuanzhen's vision of Shaolin Temple is a temple with a huge area, and this paving is one that cannot be successful without a thousand taels of silver.

There is also the fence, which costs a lot of money.

In addition, there is a road up the mountain that needs to be repaired, at least bluestone steps, which is even more expensive than paving.

The matter was settled, and the two monks asked Huo Yuanzhen about his legal name.

"One precept for a poor monk".

"Amitabha, the abbot of the first precept is polite, and the poor monk's law is called Huizhen, which is the poor monk's brother Huiming."

"Well, let's do it, the two of you will enter my Shaolin Outer Gate first, and we will be commensurate with senior brothers for the time being, and wait until the future to see the performance of the two of you, and then decide whether you join the Inner Gate."

"The abbot is merciful, and the poor monks will never let the abbot down."

Hui Zhen Hui Ming gave a salute to Huo Yuanzhen again, this time they really had some attention, and the monks also attached great importance to face, and now that they have joined Shaolin, if they can't even enter the inner door, they are really ashamed of the bodhisattva heart of the master of the first ring.

They don't know at all, Shaolin Temple has no inner and outer doors at all, this is also Huo Yuanzhen temporarily came up with it, this mechanism should be feasible, there is pressure to have motivation, do not set up any reward and punishment system, these monks do not pay much attention to the actual interests, they value more is the false name, when the time comes, they will naturally strive for this false name, Huo Yuan really grasped their psychology, only temporarily began to formulate this mechanism, and in the future will be promoted in Shaolin.

With the two newcomers, Huo Yuanzhen began to purchase, because the market had dispersed, he could only go to those shops and purchase a lot of ingredients and supplies.

Hui Zhen and Hui Ming are also in good physical condition, and they seem to have practiced kung fu for a few years, and under the strong request of the two of them, Huo Yuanzhen is happy to be idle, and the two big burdens are all carried by the two of them.

After a busy day's work, the three of them went up the mountain.

After arriving at Shaolin Temple, it was already nightfall, and Yikong and Yijing were about to fall asleep, and found that Huo Yuanzhen had returned.

Originally, they didn't plan to come out to greet them, but when they heard that it was not a person who came back, they couldn't sleep.

You must know that this Shaolin Temple has been established since the temple, in addition to the four masters and apprentices, there are no more than ten outsiders, including three who ask for food, two who collect medicine, one who chops wood, and the shepherdess has come once, and there has been a thief, but Mao has not stolen one.

It's the middle of the night today, and there are still outsiders coming, so they naturally feel novel, and of course they want to come out to have a look.

Huo Yuanzhen introduced the four of them to each other, and told them that the two of them would also be Shaolin disciples from now on, and everyone would be called brothers in the future.

Yijing was better, he didn't care much about things other than martial arts, and his attention was quickly attracted by the two big bags of ingredients that Huo Yuanzhen brought back.

It's not the same when it's empty, if you want to say that they are three senior brothers, Yikong is a relatively normal monk, and a relatively normal person, who likes to put on old qualifications and put on the shelf of his senior brother, but these three people are too familiar, and they can't show off their majesty.

But now that he was a newcomer, and he seemed to be familiar with the Dharma between his words and words, he immediately felt threatened.

"It's not good, the position of the Dharma master is not guaranteed."

Yikong felt the pressure, and put on a cold posture, humming and humming to Hui Zhen and Hui Ming's greetings, so as to highlight his special status in the temple.

Hui Ming's temperament is also relatively gentle, and he doesn't care about it, but Hui Zhen is a little scheming, and when he sees Yikong's attitude, his attitude is also cold.

The two of them started talking for a few words, and then when it came to Buddhism, they actually debated with each other.

Seeing that the two of them didn't give in to each other as soon as they met, Huo Yuanzhen didn't interfere, so good, there is pressure when there is competition, although they go to fight, so Shaolin will also have a little more popularity.

However, all developments must be within one's control.

"Okay, in the future, the four of you will sleep in a room and rest early."

Although Ichikong wanted to say that it was crowded, he still knew that he respected the authority of the abbot in front of the newcomers, so he didn't speak.

Only Yijing, a stunned young man, seemed to want to say something, but Huo Yuanzhen glared at him and didn't speak.

After arranging the four monks who were not quite on the right path, Huo Yuanzhen returned to his room and lay down and began to calculate.

Shaolin's house is too tight, this small temple may not be able to retain people for a long time, the current top priority is no longer a matter of martial arts, but must expand the territory as soon as possible.

At least build two houses for everyone to rest, and it is not a problem to live in the Buddha hall all the time.

It all takes money.

Wait for tomorrow, tomorrow will be fine, after tonight and tomorrow morning, there should be many people coming to the mountain to listen to the story of Journey to the West.

With a sweet dream, Huo Yuanzhen spent another night on the wooden bed.
