The Adventure of All Worlds Starting from Doupo
Chapter 1001 Selling Robes
Elder Jin Chi tried to touch the brocade cassock with one hand, but failed.
Xuanzang put away his cassock again and said in a vague tone:
"Okay, just take a look at this treasure, but don't damage it, because I will wear it to see the Buddha in the future!"
When he heard about the Buddha, Elder Jin Chi became even more curious and kept asking questions.
Xuanzang explained the whole mission of obtaining Buddhist scriptures, his eyes full of sincerity, which made Elder Jinchi, a centuries-old old man, excited.
Buddhism spread eastward, and people could also go to the Great Leiyin Temple to meet the Buddha.
What an honor it is for a monk!
A blazing fire of jealousy burned in Elder Jin Chi's belly, and he beat his feet and stamped his chest in hatred.
Why wasn't he the one who went to seek the scriptures? Was it because he wasn't a monk from the Celestial Empire?
If you become a pilgrim, you will not only be respected by the Buddha and Bodhisattvas, but you will also be able to obtain treasures such as brocade robes.
"Woooooooo..."
The old monk just started crying in public, and he looked so sad, just like a child who was hundreds of years old.
The other monks in the Zen temple came forward one by one to persuade him. In fact, some of them were jealous of Xuanzang's identity as a pilgrim.
Although traveling west may be a dangerous thing and there will be many difficulties and obstacles along the way, if you can really complete this task, even if you can't become a Buddha right away, it shouldn't be a problem to go to the Great Leiyin Temple and become an Arhat messenger or something like that.
Xiao Zhen, who was far away in Heaven watching on, listened to the chat group members' suggestions. Ye Fan actually wanted to see if something interesting would happen if he brought Elder Jin Chi into the team.
I have to say that the ideas coming from modern people are just weird.
Soon, this news was transmitted to the mind of Xuanzang's incarnation through the system.
With a slight smile on his lips, Xuanzang helped up the sad Elder Jinchi.
"Why are you so sad? Why don't you come with me to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West? If you can retrieve the true scriptures, it will be a great merit!"
Elder Jin Chi was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect that he would be recruited.
At the same time, the gods and Buddhas in the sky who were monitoring...
"What's the matter? Elder, don't you want to go to the West with us to meet the Buddha and Bodhisattva?"
Patting Elder Jinchi who had not yet come to his senses, Xuanzang asked with a smile.
"No, no, no..."
Shaking his head repeatedly, Elder Jin Chi kept looking at the wrapped brocade robes and said in a weak voice:
"I am already an old man, and I usually just practice some health-preserving methods. The road to the west is long, I am afraid I can't get there!"
Xuanzang's face turned serious and he said seriously: "How can you think so? As long as we set out on the journey to the West, even if you fall down on the way, we will take your share with us to the West, or you will wait for us in the West."
Elder Jin Chi smiled awkwardly and said, "Master Xuanzang, why don't we talk about the robes? I really like your precious robes. Although they were given by the Bodhisattva and are of great significance, if you are willing to sell them, I am willing to exchange all the money in the temple for them."
Xuanzang shook his head and looked at the statue of Guanyin not far away.
"This treasure was given by Guanyin Bodhisattva. If you want to pass it on to someone else, you still need the Bodhisattva's consent!"
Then, under the confused gaze of others, Xuanzang walked to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva and silently took out a copper coin from his arms.
Elder Jin Chi asked in confusion: "Master, what are you doing?"
Xuanzang explained: "I will throw this coin in a moment. If the front side faces up, it means that the Bodhisattva agrees that I can sell you the brocade robe. If the back side faces up, then I can do nothing about it!"
Elder Jin Chi also put his hands together and performed a Buddhist salute.
"Amitabha, then I'll have to trouble Master Xuanzang."
Before the coin was thrown, Elder Jin Chi sent several young monks under his command to count the property.
Xuanzang threw the bag of copper coins high up in front of everyone, and after the copper coins fell to the ground, they continued to roll.
Elder Jin Chi's heart began to beat faster and he almost held his breath.
The Guanyin herself can see the entire scene through her statue.
She was really tired. Why was it that this Golden Cicada was becoming more and more difficult to deal with after his reincarnation?
The brocade cassock is not just a cassock, to some extent it also represents the status of the pilgrim. Now it is being exchanged for money.
A trace of magic power flowed out from the statue, and the copper plate stopped rolling, with the back side facing upwards.
Elder Jin Chi’s eyes widened and his old body collapsed to the ground.
Sun Wukong also felt the fluctuation of magical power just now, and he knew that it must be the Bodhisattva who took action.
Xuanzang picked up the copper coin on the ground and said helplessly: "Elder, this is the will of the Bodhisattva. I can't help you. Where can I find a soulmate in the world? You don't have to worry about my unique brocade robe."
Hearing this, Elder Jin Chi cried even more sadly.
Two hours later, it was completely dark.
Elder Jin Chi lay on his bed, tossing and turning but unable to fall asleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, the image of the precious cassock appeared in his mind.
The corners of his eyes gradually became moist, and just as he was about to get up to go to the bathroom, he heard someone knocking on his door.
After lighting the light and opening the door, he found that the person coming was Xuanzang.
"Master, you come here so late at night, I wonder what you are doing here!"
Xuanzang put on a look of compassion and said helplessly:
"When I saw you looking sad, Elder, I felt really bad too, so... I figured it out!"
Figured it out? What did you figure out?
Before Elder Jin Chi could say anything, Xuanzang said righteously, "The precious cassock is just a thing outside of my body. Since you like it so much, I will reluctantly give it up and sell it to you for 10 taels of gold!"
Elder Jin Chi was shaking all over and had difficulty breathing.
10 taels of gold. His Guanyin Temple is not a bandit’s den. Even if he robs around, he can’t steal so much money!
In this world, gold is a very precious metal.
Moreover, gold can be made into special currency and used to exchange things with those immortals.
Even if some people with great supernatural powers can turn stones into gold, it is just a fake.
If someone keeps turning stones into gold, it will disrupt the monetary laws between heaven and earth, and then heaven will punish him, so this is also a taboo.
Elder Jin Chi explained tremblingly: "Master Xuanzang, it's not that I don't want to spend money to buy the precious robes, but 10 taels of gold, even if you sell the entire Zen temple, you can't get it together!"
Xuanzang asked, "Then please give me a price. How much can you offer?"
Elder Jin Chi counted with his 10 wrinkled fingers and said awkwardly, "If we convert the money in the temple into gold, there will be about 1 taels. If we sell the land deeds and other things, we should be able to collect more than taels."
Xuanzang was a little disappointed. He thought that the Guanyin Temple would be very rich, but he didn't expect it to be so poor.
"Well, my disciple and I will stay here for a few more days. If you can find a way to get me 20,000 taels of gold, the cassock will be yours!"
