Chapter 246: Kofukuji Temple
The land of Song City, a radius of thousands of miles is fertile soil, there are hundreds of thousands of people, and there is the protection of the city god before, so it has been very prosperous here, and there are people from all walks of life in the city.
In the early morning of this day, several people in Suzhou City left the inn separately and searched for news from all over Songcheng in front of them.
Su Cheng and Zhao Min walked around the city together, and finally came to the south of the city unconsciously.
"Su Lang, you see there seems to be a temple in front of you...... Kofukuji Temple? I see that there are a lot of believers here."
Zhao Min was dressed in men's clothes, holding a folding fan, and suddenly pointed ahead.
Su Cheng raised his eyes and saw a dozen zhang away, bustling people in and out of a temple, this temple looks magnificent, cigarette smoke, the plaque outside the door is written Xingfu Temple three big characters.
The moment he saw this temple, Su Cheng thought of those monks, and then when he looked at Zhao Min, Zhao Min nodded calmly, obviously the two of them thought about the same.
"Let's go in quietly and take a look, whether it is related to those monks or not, this is a place of Buddhism, and we should know about it."
Su Cheng said softly, unless the monks in Xingfu Temple are ordinary people, they must know something.
Subsequently, Su Cheng and Zhao Min mixed in with those believers and quietly entered the Xingfu Temple.
On both sides of the aisle in the temple, one or two monks appeared from time to time, but unfortunately, in Su Cheng's induction, these were really ordinary people, and they didn't have any mana.
In the end, Su Cheng and the others arrived at the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and stood behind those believers, and saw a monk in a red robe from a distance, followed by several monks, talking with the believers inside.
"Host, my child has always been frail, is there a solution?"
"Presiding, there has been some restlessness in the family these days, and there seems to be evil cults, so please be merciful."
……
Su Cheng stood on the side, and after listening quietly for a while, he understood the identity of this monk, who was the presiding officer of Xingfu Temple, Zen Master Huiran.
Zen Master Hui Ran is fifty or sixty years old, tall, compassionate, white hair and beard, looking like a monk who has attained the Tao, and it is no wonder that he is deeply trusted by believers.
The most important thing is that Su Cheng sensed the fluctuation of mana from Zen Master Huiran's body, and it was obvious that this person was not a mortal.
Suddenly, Zen Master Huiran looked at Su Cheng and Zhao Min, then smiled faintly, and then looked at the believers in front of him.
"Looks like they found us...... But I don't feel any hostility, and it seems that we have something to talk to him."
Su Cheng said lightly, but he didn't worry too much, he acted cautiously, but he was not timid and afraid, since he didn't perceive the danger, he was naturally willing to stay and talk.
Although there are some scum in Buddhism, Su Cheng believes that there are also many virtuous monks among them, just like Guanzi Bodhisattva, if it were not for the real great compassion, there would not be so many believers.
It didn't take long for Zen Master Hui Ran to talk and play with the believers, nodded to Su Cheng and the others, and then left the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and Su Cheng and Zhao Min followed closely behind, and finally came to a wing room in the backyard.
Zen Master Hui Ran stood on the side of the chamber, looked at Su Cheng and Zhao Min at the door, looked at it for a while, folded his hands and said with a smile:
"The two donors are here today, I don't know why?"
Now Songcheng is a place of wind and clouds, many people have come here, in addition to the matter of the test city god, there are also monks and all kinds of people, before the identity and intention of Su Cheng and the two people are clear, Hui Ran Zen Master will naturally not speak easily.
"Zen Master, let's be honest, we are here to take the Chenghuang test, and a friend of ours is involved in it, so I want to inquire about the details of this matter, I wonder if you can give us some advice?"
Su Cheng arched his hand and said, the first time he dealt with him, he didn't know the temperament and position of Zen Master Huiran, so naturally it was impossible to directly talk about those monks.
"Kao Cheng God...... The old man can only say, if you can, take your friends away as soon as possible, this place is not suitable for long."
Zen Master Huiran's face became sad for a moment, his white eyebrows trembled, his expression was even more complicated, and after being silent for a moment, he said:
"Kaocheng
The matter of the god is very involved, and you are also cultivators, so you should understand the danger, but it's a pity that Zhao Chenghuang is ......
Su Cheng's heart moved when he heard this, judging from the words of Zen Master Huiran in front of him, he obviously knew something, and he didn't seem to be the same traveler as those monks, otherwise he wouldn't have to remind them.
"Please also ask the Zen master to be merciful, he can tell us some news, and if possible, we are willing to do our best to solve the matter here."
Su Cheng bowed down and said, at this moment, their group is already destined to meddle in the matter of taking the city god, and they can't give up leaving, they can only prepare as much as possible.
"Hey, the local Zhao Chenghuang before was actually a scholar from the previous dynasty, and later when he went to Beijing to catch the exam, he was killed by demons on the way to this place, so I don't know how long it took, this Zhao Chenghuang may have had an adventure, somehow became a local Chenghuang, and did a lot of things, and the old man also had a few conversations with him, and he is a good Chenghuang who has a heart to do things."
Zen Master Hui Ran let out a long sigh, he originally had no mana, if it weren't for the old relationship with Zhao Chenghuang, he would still be a mortal, and then continued:
"Later, it was rumored that Zhao Chenghuang got a broken secret realm, and then a person named the Void Belly Ghost King came to snatch it, and it was suspected that there was a master behind him, and he actually trapped that Zhao Chenghuang.
For this reason, there is the matter of testing the city god, once someone gains a trace of authority from the city god, whether it is to get Zhao Chenghuang out of trouble or kill that Zhao Chenghuang, they can do it."
I see, Kao Chenghuang is still involved in so many things.
Only then did Su Cheng understand why at this moment, there was a matter of taking the Chenghuang test.
I just don't know which side of the scholar who invited Ning Caichen before.
"Zen Master, thank you so much, then do you know how to succeed in the Chenghuang test?"
Su Cheng was now left with only this one question, and he believed that once he could rescue that Zhao Chenghuang, then the current crisis would also be solved.
"I don't know, but ...... Only certain people should be able to do this."
Zen Master Hui Ran shook his head, if he really knew the solution, he would not stay here.
Su Cheng recalled Ning Caichen's specialness, if he was really different from others, then he would only be the protagonist.
"I just don't know, Zhang Wuji, Kou Xu, and a few others, can they also do it?"
Su Cheng suddenly had such a thought in his heart, but at the same time, he also knew what to do next.
"In that case, Zen Master, let's leave first, the examination of the city god is about to begin, and we have to make some other preparations."
Now that they had gotten the news they wanted, Su Cheng and Zhao Min did not stay any longer, and then left Xingfu Temple directly.
