Chapter 195: "The Robe of Trouble"

The bell rang strangely, something that had never happened before in this solemn and quiet Guanyin Zen Temple, and the monks of all sizes in the temple ran out: "Who is hitting the bell?"

Sun Wukong jumped in front of the monk, emitted a divine breath, and shouted with grinning: "It's your grandfather who is playing with it!"

The monks suddenly saw an ugly monster emerge, and at the same time the air seemed to have turned into a monstrous wave, and a very strong mysterious pressure surged, and the monks were pushed backwards, frightened and frightened, and they couldn't get up when they stepped on the ground, and they all shouted in fear: "Grandpa Lei! Grandpa Lei......

"What is Grandpa Lei! Lei Gong is my great-grandson! We are the masters from the Tang Dynasty!" Sun Wukong smiled and bent over, collected his divine power, and had a cold face.

Tang Seng heard the commotion outside and walked out. The monks saw that Tang Seng was extraordinary, and his apprentices also had such great ability, so they didn't dare to slack off. The master of the Zen monastery walked out and said to the two: "Two masters, please go to the back meditation room to serve tea!"

Sun Wukong called himself the master, and the master of the courtyard did not dare to call him an elder anymore.

In the temple, the front Buddha hall is for the believers to worship the Buddha, and the back yard is where the monks live. There is a monk in the backyard of this Guanyin Monastery who thinks he is powerful, these two foreign monks are not simple, it seems that they have to invite that powerful character to take a look.

The owner of the courtyard let the horse lead the horse, and the luggage carried the baggage, invited the Tang monk and the two into the backyard to serve tea and entertain, and arranged a meal. After eating, we talked about Zen and sutras together.

Suddenly there was a coughing sound, and two little novices walked out from behind, holding an old monk.

This old monk is on a cane inlaid with beads and jade, and the monk's robe is covered with gold and silver threads, inlaid with precious jade, full of jewels, and his face is wrinkled like the bark of a 10,000-year-old pine, hunched back, and he walks steadily.

The monks in the temple all stood up to greet them, saying that the ancestor greeted the old monk.

The head of the hospital introduced the two sides. It turned out that this old monk was the highest senior elder in the temple, and he was known as the Jinchi Master.

Tang Seng stood up and bowed, and the Venerable Jin Chi returned the salute, and the two sides sat down.

The Venerable Jin Chi opened his toothless mouth and said, "I heard the little ones just say that there is a master from the Tang Dynasty from the Eastern Soil, I will come out and take a look!"

Tang Seng said humbly: "Walking monks, taking the liberty to visit Baoshan, I don't know what to do, where do you dare to be the word master, rude, and ask the old house master to forgive the sin!"

"Don't dare! How far is it from Dongtu to here?" asked the Venerable Jinchi.

"The poor monk went out of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, walked about 5,000 miles, crossed the Liangjie Mountain, and passed through the Hami Kingdom, and walked for another two or three months, about five or six thousand miles, before arriving at your land. ”

"Even if there are thousands of miles to go, my old monk has never gone out of the mountain gate in his life, he really sits in the well and watches the sky!" As the Venerable Jin Chi spoke, his dim old eyes suddenly opened, his eyes flashed, he glanced at Tang Seng, and squinted slightly.

Tang Seng was shocked in his heart, this old monk seemed to have profound Buddhism, so he asked, "The old master is longevity?"

"I'm two hundred and seventy years old. The Venerable Jin Chi raised his eyebrows.

Sun Wukong knew that the old monk was deliberately showing off, so he took over the conversation and said with a disdainful expression: "It's still my grandson of all generations!"

Tang Seng glanced at Sun Wukong and signaled Sun Wukong not to come nonsense in the Guanyin Monastery. Sun Wukong turned his head and pretended not to see it.

Sun Wukong's words were heard in the ears of the Venerable Jin Chi, obviously teasing and rude, his eyes were shining, he looked at Sun Wukong, and asked, "This master, I don't know how old you are?"

The eyes of the Venerable Jin Chi had the power of dementorship, and Sun Wukong was secretly amused in his heart. I wanted to give him a little color with fiery eyes, but suddenly thought: An ordinary monk will never have such a cultivation practice, and this Jinchi Master has lived for two hundred and seventy years, and it is not an ordinary person's lifespan, could it be that the Jinchi Master is a little weird?

Sun Wukong's heart moved, and he lowered his head and said: "Don't dare to say it, it's scary to say it." ”

Seeing that he didn't dare to look into his eyes, the Venerable Jin Chi thought that he was afraid of himself, so he stopped asking questions, and turned his head and ordered tea.

Two close-fitting little novices brought out the tea set. Sun Wukong saw that the tea set was very unusual:

A small novice holds a jade plate of mutton fat jade in both hands, the jade is crystal white and flawless, delicate and moisturizing like clotted fat. This kind of jade has always been only found on Kunlun Immortal Mountain, and on the sheep fat jade plate, there are three sapphires carved into a jade cup inlaid with gold, which is as clear as crystal.

Another small novice was carrying a white jade pot carved with algae patterns, which was not ordinary.

The two novices poured three cups of fragrant tea for the three of them.

Tang Seng exclaimed: "It's really a good tea!"

"I'm smiling! Master, you are from the Heavenly Empire, there are many treasures there, but there are no treasures? Where are these little things like me worth mentioning? My lord came from the Celestial Empire, I don't know what treasures he brought? I took them out and gave them to the old monk!"

Why is this Jinchi Master still so obsessed with hue after living for such a long time? When he said this, could it be that he had other meanings? Tang Seng hurriedly said: "Where! Where do I have any treasures in the east of the earth? Yes, poor monks come from thousands of miles, and how can an ascetic monk who has become a monk bring a treasure with him?"

Sun Wukong said beside him: "Master, you obviously have rare treasures, why do you say that there are no treasures? The robe hidden in your baggage is the treasure of Buddhism! The old courtyard master is so sincere, just take it out and show it to him!"
