Journey to the West: People in Heaven, 9 to 5

Tang Sanzang glanced at the extremely powerful abbot, and said lightly:

"Old abbot, this poor monk is being polite."

"I was originally a monk in the Tang Dynasty. I was ordered by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to go to the west to seek scriptures and verses. I passed by your courtyard and came here to burn incense and worship Buddha. I also asked the old abbot for guidance."

The faces of all the people present at Guangming Temple were full of strange expressions.

This bald thug is actually a monk? !

And he came from Datang?

No wonder, I have heard of the great land of the Tang Dynasty, which is full of outstanding people. I never thought that a monk could grow so tall and strong. Good guy, is this the demeanor of a powerful country?

Everyone in Guangming Temple looked at the abbot one after another.

The old abbot was not worried at all, and his face was full of arrogance, "Want to worship Buddha? Yes, but you must abide by the regulations of my Guangming Temple!"

"Don't think that you can run wild here because you are monsters. The God of Yaksha has come here. If you act recklessly, you will be decapitated!"

Everyone present at Guangming Temple couldn't help but get excited when they heard what the old abbot said. No wonder the old abbot was able to face the three monsters so calmly. It turned out that he had already successfully invited the Buddha!

This time, everyone in Guangming Temple also breathed a sigh of relief, and returned to their usual unruly and arrogant look.

They understand very well what it means for God to come here.

The Guangming Temple used to collect the merits of vows here before, and there are monks and soldiers trained in the temple, which cannot be attacked by mortals.

Recently, the Guangming Temple accepted Buddhism again, allowing them to forcibly convert mortals, ordering them to come over to pay merit money and burn high incense. The monsters couldn't stand it any longer, and came directly to attack Guangming Temple, but with this hand, the god will descend, making Guangming Temple invincible.

It is impossible for mortal monsters to defeat the regular army of the Liuliguang World, so the Guangming Temple can do whatever it wants, even the king can't control them.

The old abbot has the protection of the gods and generals, so he dares to be so confident.

Seeing that the old abbot was so confident, Tang Sanzang probably knew what was going on with the so-called asking Buddha to protect the courtyard.

Tang Sanzang looked back at Zhu Bajie, Zhu Bajie nodded slightly, and Sha Wujing also nodded.

The tacit understanding between the master and apprentice is self-evident.

The corner of Tang Sanzang's mouth raised a sinister smile, which was fleeting. He looked at the old abbot and said, "Then please ask the old abbot to take us to worship Buddha and burn incense."

However, the old abbot showed a sarcastic sneer on his face, and pointed to the merit box in the distance, "No hurry, I want to worship Buddha, first go to the merit box to donate money..."

Tang Sanzang, his master and his disciples looked over, but they froze in place.

What the old abbot was referring to was a huge pond, which was already filled with many gold and silver treasures, which was extremely dazzling!

Zhu Bajie twitched the corners of his mouth,

"What kind of merit box is this? Isn't this a merit pool? I'm familiar with this!"

Sha Wujing didn't speak, but was already exercising his muscles.

Tang Sanzang remained indifferent, clasped his hands together and said:

"Donating merit money has always been voluntary. I didn't expect Guangming Temple to be so popular and able to gather so many treasures. It shows the effectiveness of Guangming Temple."

"However, the poor monk didn't bring much money today, so I won't donate it today, please trouble the old abbot to take me to worship Buddha."

However, the old abbot waved his hand, and all the monks and soldiers unsheathed their swords and pointed at Tang Sanzang, full of murderous intent!

The old abbot's face was full of arrogance,

"Oh, the rule of my Guangming Temple is that everyone must voluntarily hand over all their belongings! No resistance!"

"You monk, the tin rod and cassock on your body seem to be worth some money, so donate all your belongings!"

Tang Sanzang raised his eyebrows slightly, his face full of doubts,

"What kind of rule is this? Isn't this robbery? The poor monk is just here to worship Buddha."

Zhu Bajie also sneered and shook his head,

"My old pig has burned incense and worshiped Buddha for many years, and I have never seen such a rascal rule."

"Is this Buddhist monastery of yours enshrining bandits?"

The atmosphere on the field instantly became tense, and swords were on the verge of breaking out!

Chapter 1002 Kowtow in front of the Buddha, not asking for blessings, but begging for mercy

Hundreds of monks and soldiers on the field, and the generals in the dark are ready to attack.

The old abbot had a sneer on his face, with a faint killing intent,

"Here, I have the final say! This is also a rule issued by the Buddhas of the Western Heaven."

"Those who enter the temple donate merit money and burn incense to bless them. If they do not donate money or burn incense in the temple, it is disrespectful to the Buddha!

Anyone who refuses to obey is slandering Buddhism and humiliating Buddhism, and should be dealt with according to the etiquette and law of Xiniu Hezhou! "

"I, Xiniu Hezhou, belong to the land of Buddha. Slandering the Dharma is a death sentence! Many people have committed such crimes. I advise you not to mistake yourself! Amitabha."

The old abbot clasped his hands together, his eyes were narrowed, and his face was full of threats.

Zhu Bajie felt that it was almost time to make a move.

However, Tang Sanzang was still indifferent, just clasped his hands together, and said expressionlessly: "Since this is the case, we naturally have to abide by the regulations."

"It's just that the poor monk still wants to wear cassocks, hold a tin staff, and go to worship the Buddha neatly. After the worship, he should donate all his belongings to your house."

"For the sake of you and I being monks, I ask the old abbot to accommodate you."

The nine-tooth nail rake that Zhu Bajie was going to take out, quickly took it back and shrunk it down to make a comb to comb his hair.

The old abbot seemed to be determined by Tang Sanzang, and said arrogantly: "Yes, you can't escape anyway."

"Come with me, to pay homage to the Buddha! Remember, your life is given by the Buddha. If you dare to disrespect, you will fall into the endless purgatory!"

Immediately, the old abbot swaggered and led everyone into the hospital.

Along the way, Tang Sanzang asked very calmly:

"By the way, old abbot, I don't know when the Buddha's decree was issued, and which Buddha issued it."

The old abbot made no secrets and said bluntly:

"It was issued a few days ago, and it was agreed by the three thousand Buddhas."

"And my Buddhist monastery enshrines the leader of the Eastern Pure Glass World, Medicine Buddha!"

"The Twelve Yaksha God Generals under the Medicine Buddha's command have special guards for my monastery. Everything we do is approved by the Buddha himself! Do you have anything else to ask now?"

Tang Sanzang frowned,

"That is to say, the Buddha already knew about these things, and even these were ordered by the Buddha?"

"Why is this, I have never heard of it being so strict before."

The old abbot didn't care, and continued:

"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and evil spirits are rising. I am hanging from the west sky and living alone, guarding one side alone."

"West Paradise is doing such a righteous thing, but it lacks the contributions of believers, so the Buddha ordered that everyone should contribute selflessly together."

"This matter is a great good thing, but those unruly people don't even cooperate. They just donate some merit and offer incense. They all resist, so I can only use some means to get everyone to cooperate!"

"Hmph, I really don't know what is good and what is bad. If there is no Buddha to protect our world, this world would have already fallen into hell. It is an unforgivable crime for those uncooperative people not to cooperate!"

Along the way, the old abbot complained to Tang Sanzang about the uncooperative people, but during the conversation, the old abbot's treasures always caught Tang Sanzang's eyes.

Tang Sanzang's face was indifferent, but under the calm face, Tang Sanzang only felt that his heart was about to erupt like a volcano!

What a Buddha who protects the living beings of all worlds, it is really difficult for them to loot such righteousness!

The old abbot continued to chatter along the way, and sneered at Tang Sanzang: "You monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty must not know the peace of our Xiniu Hezhou, but it is also normal.

In Nanzhanbuzhou, there were many killings and the people were in dire straits, but we in Hezhou, Xiniu, were not greedy or killed, and cultivated energy and potential spirit, all because of the efforts of our monasteries. "

"Without our monastery's suppression, God knows how rebellious and disrespectful these unscrupulous people would be!

What a bunch of damned thugs, that is, my Buddha is merciful, otherwise they would have fallen into endless purgatory! "

Tang Sanzang listened all the way, the veins on his forehead popped out, but he took a deep breath to suppress the fury.

Zhu Bajie was so angry that he almost burst out laughing.

What shameless words, thanks to the old abbot who can speak out without shame.

But looking at the luxurious cassock of the old abbot, and the gold, silver and jade falling all over his body, Zhu Bajie also understood why he was able to open his eyes and talk nonsense.

Finally, under the leadership of the old abbot, Tang Sanzang and his disciples came to the main courtyard.

In front of you, there is a main courtyard that can be called vast, with a three-foot-tall golden Buddha sitting in the middle!

Tang Sanzang was stunned by such a scene.

It was the first time I saw such a luxurious and luxurious scene. The Golden Buddha was ten meters high, and beside it were twelve three-meter-high golden statues of the God of Yaksha!

All the temples Tang Sanzang visited in his life were not as luxurious as this one!

And under the golden Buddha, there are rows of believers kneeling, kowtowing non-stop, looking from a distance, they seem to be very pious.

However, when I got closer, I saw rows of believers with chains on their bodies, like prisoners chained together one by one, and all of them were sallow and emaciated, and their heads were already bleeding. The bones are visible deep, but they still keep kowtow.

Just when Tang Sanzang arrived, a row of believers who had been kowtowing fell down. More than a dozen people had already died, and there was a pool of black blood under their heads. Obviously, they kowtowed themselves, and they were alive. Knocked to death.

Seeing this, Tang Sanzang's eyes flickered with disbelief,

For a moment, shock, pity, anger, and killing intent welled up in my heart!

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing's eyes were already filled with endless anger, even monsters, they couldn't stand it anymore. They had never seen such a horrible scene. Under the golden Buddha, they knelt down and kowtowed in a row. Dead believers!

"Why are you doing this to them!" Tang Sanzang suppressed his anger and almost squeezed the words out between his teeth.

The old abbot didn't care, but replied with a smile:

"These unscrupulous people just didn't donate merit and didn't burn the high incense in the temple, so I punished them to kowtow and chant sutras in front of the Buddha,"

"It only takes a thousand kowtows to spare them the crime of disrespecting the Buddha, and they will not be held accountable."

"My Guangming Temple is the kindest temple in Baoxiang Kingdom. If it were any other temple, it would have been pulled out and chopped down."

"This is also the best destination for these unscrupulous people. They just died and did not enter the endless purgatory. My Buddha is merciful, Amitabha, so good."
