Chapter 66 - 66: There Are Mysteries in the Buddhist Scriptures
The bark that belonged to the human face began to fall off and fell to the ground. It was like a withered old tree that was heading for extinction.
When he looked again, the position of the face had returned to normal, as if it had never appeared.
“If the strangeness dies, the locust tree will be normal. “Xu Bai thought.
The small courtyard returned to silence once again. It was no different from before. It looked ordinary, and this locust tree no longer had any bewitching effects.
If ordinary people came in again, they would not be affected by the locust tree.
Xu Bai stood there for a while, then turned around and went back to his room.
The next day.
When the first ray of sunlight shone into the streets of Shengxian County, people began their busy day.
The streets slowly became lively, turning from quiet to noisy in just an hour.
On both sides of the street, the commoners were still busy making a living, setting up stalls and opening shops.
Yesterday, County Magistrate Zhang was beheaded. This matter had caused a sensation in the entire county. However, life was still life. The most common thing was to chat during dinner.
Other than that, the impact on the people was minimal.
Ever since Magistrate Zhang’s death, Sheng County lacked a parent officer, but it did not affect the daily activities of Sheng County.
According to the efficiency of Great Chu, the new officials were already on their way and would take office soon.
To the commoners, it was a lively scene at that time, but as time passed, they would slowly forget about it.
On both sides of the street, the sound of peddling could be heard from time to time. In the middle of the street, the green-robed monk, No Flower, was slowly walking.
Today, he was not here to shop, but to go to the Dragon Conqueror Bodyguard Agency.
There was no other reason. He wanted to persuade Xu Bai, and he had brought something with him.
The scripture that the abbot had copied when he was young was placed on his chest. To be honest, Wu Hua was still a little reluctant.
“Almsgiver Xu is a person who loves Buddhism. He will definitely like this Buddhist scripture.”
With this thought in mind, Wu Hua walked even faster. Before long, he had already reached the entrance of the Dragon Conqueror Bodyguard Agency.
At this moment, the people from the escort agency were still training.
When someone saw No Flower enter, they thought that he had business and hurriedly went forward to ask.
“I want to see your escort master.” Wu Hua pressed his palms together and said.
Even though he was still young, in the eyes of the bodyguard, this monk still looked kind.
Liu Er happened to be at the side. After hearing No Flower’s words, he asked No Flower to wait in the front yard. He ran to the connection between the backyard and the front yard and shouted.
“Brother Xu, a monk is here to see you.”
Atter saying tnat, ne 100Kea at tne locust tree In tne Dacwara witn some rear.
At this moment, Xu Bai had just woken up and was about to go out for a walk.
Hearing Liu Er’s shout and hearing that it was a monk, he knew who it was without guessing.
“Let him come to the backyard.” Xu Bai said through the door.
“Alright.” Liu Er agreed and told No Flower to go in by himself.
They did not dare to enter the backyard. That tree was very strange. Their lives were more important.
“Thank you.” No Flower bowed slightly to thank him.
Liu Er waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing.
Only then did No Flower step into the backyard.
As soon as he entered, No Flower stopped and looked at the locust tree in the backyard with a hesitant gaze.
He seemed to have thought of something and stayed where he was for a while.
However, he remembered that he was here on official business. He did not stay long and went to the largest house in the backyard.
“Almsgiver Xu, I am here to disturb you.”No Flower knocked on the door.
No one opened the door for him, so the door opened automatically.
When No Flower walked in, he saw Xu Bai in casual clothes pouring water.
“I don’t have any good tea here. Just drink some water. “Xu Bai poured a cup and pushed it to No Flower.
Almsgiver Xu is polite, monks and nuns don’t pay attention to the desire of food and stomach.”No flower backhanded the door closed, walked to Xu Bai in front of them, picked up the boiled water on the table, drank a mouthful.
He had serious business to attend to, so he didn’t waste time on small talk. After putting down the cup of water, he took out a Buddhist scripture from his pocket and handed it to Xu Bai.
“What do you mean?” Xu Bai focused slightly.
In Xu Bail s opinion, this book had no cover and no words. Other than the creases left by frequent flipping, it looked ordinary.
Normally, Xu Bai wouldn’t even look at him, but it was different now.
There was a golden progress bar floating above the book, which was very eye-catching.
Another golden progress bar?
Xu Bai pondered for a moment and pretended not to know anything.
It was really like a flower planted deliberately did not bloom, but a willow planted unintentionally made a shade.
He was now worrying about where to get the progress bar. He had even made up his mind last night to set his goal aside from upgrading the county.
He didn’t expect to receive a progress bar today.
It was comfortable!
However, there must be a reason for everything.
There was no free lunch in the sky, so Xu Bai asked.
He also liked the idea of free prostitution, but there were very few people who could really do so.
“This is the Buddhist scripture copied by the abbot of the Titanium Temple when he was young. At that time, although the abbot was only a little monk, his Buddhist teachings were already outstanding among his peers. I saw that Almsgiver Xu liked Buddhist teachings.”No Flower said slowly.
There was a hint of heartache in his tone.
This is not an act.
Just as Liu Xu had said, when the abbot of the Titanium Temple was young, he liked to copy Buddhist scriptures. There were thousands of them in the Sutra Depository, and there were many of them.
But that didn’t mean it was worthless.
This thing was like an antique. Its function was not to do anything but to
collect it.
This book was especially good for Buddhist disciples.
With the support of the status of the abbot of the Titanium Temple, everyone wanted it.
In fact, the Titanium Temple had even had the idea of using the abbot’s scriptures to connect with other Buddhist sects, but the abbot immediately rejected this idea.
No Flower didn’t know why, but he didn’t understand why the host had such a strange expression on his face when he rejected him.
Just like… Awkward.
He couldn’t figure it out, and neither did Xu Bai.
If Xu Bai knew about this, he would definitely tell No Flower that they almost killed the host club.
In this day and age, who didn’t do something stupid when they were young? It was only when they were old that they regretted it.
For example, when he was in junior high school, he liked to post his own updates, and the updates he posted were extremely awkward.
For example, they would moan or complain about the heavens and earth, pretending to be depressed.
When they grew up and found out, they would spend the entire night deleting all the content.
“Now, your Titanium Temple actually wants to use the stupidity of the abbot in his early years to contact the Buddhist sect. The abbot didn’t give you a slap because he has a good temper.
“Tell me your conditions.” Xu Bai took the Buddhist scripture and caressed it lovingly.
The progress bar was too fragrant.
This appearance made No Flower confirm his thoughts. He secretly thought that the benefactor was indeed a person who worshipped Buddha.
Following that, No Flower said something that made Xu Bai confused.
“I didn’t expect Almsgiver Xu to be not only a person who worships Buddha, but also a person who keeps a low profile. It turns out that he has long wanted to destroy the Extreme Life Sect..”
