Chapter 1259: Chapter 1260: Everyone Is a at Eater Chapter 1259: Chapter 1260: Everyone Is a at Eater “Of course, how could a feast proceed without good wine, good at, and fine dishes? Monks are people too, they need to eat at, especially Buddhist scholars from foreign lands like Lord Buddha. They must drink wine and eat at. Bring the roast chicken on plates; leave these wilted vegetable leaves to you!”
Ergouzi stated matter-of-factly, as this was a test. Back in the city of Jinlun, they had already noticed that every monk was drinking wine and eating at. Now, they wanted to see whether the monks of Heavenly Dragon Temple were truly devout or just pretenders.
“Amitabha, indeed, heroes think alike. Soone, bring forth the eight-treasure chicken platter for Master Nicholas to taste!”
Upon these words, the atmosphere in the grand hall beca much more relaxed. Monk Ling Jue gestured to a young novice outside to bring in another plate.
This was originally their midday al, which had been hastily prepared with so Spirit Grass after Ergouzi’s arrival. Little did they expect that the guest was also a at lover.
It seems that everyone here is of the sa path, all tarred with the sa brush!
Since we are all compatriots, then there is nothing we cannot openly discuss.
“Yes!”
The young novice bowed respectfully and brought out a tray carefully.
Monk Ling Jue lifted the cover, and in an instant, the hall was bathed in radiant colors, revealing a precious chicken for all to see.
“Master Nicholas, are you satisfied?”
Abbot Bobozi asked with a beaming smile.
“Hmm, not bad, not bad at all. This is indeed a fine thing. Is this the standard fare at Heavenly Dragon Temple?”
Ergouzi’s eyes shone brightly; this chicken was no ordinary chicken—it was clearly a top-notch ingredient, which could significantly benefit one’s cultivation level after consumption!
“The master jests. While Heavenly Dragon Temple cannot be considered wealthy, it is far from poor. An eight-treasure chicken is easily within our reach. We have designated areas on our temple’s rear mountain specifically for rearing this eight-treasure chicken. If the master approves, I will have so packed and presented to you!”
“The eight-treasure chicken is a nourishing delicacy. This one here has been fed Spirit Grass and elixirs, possessing a Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation level. Eating it grants trendous benefits, fortifying one’s foundation. However, for those present with your levels of cultivation, it seems it can only serve as a feast for your palate!”
Abbot Bobozi said cheerily.
“In that case, Lord Buddha is in for a treat.”
Ergouzi grinned broadly, almost drooling, without any pretense. He tore off a chicken leg and began to feast with great relish. Ji Wuqing watched with a pained heart, eyes closed and overco by a profound sense of sorrow.
Li Xiaobai was also sowhat surprised. These monks were living too lavishly, casually consuming Heavenly Immortal Realm chickens; what’s crucial is that these chickens, nourished by dicinal herbs, required a substantial expenditure of Heaven and Earth Treasures. No wonder they were so affluent in this core area temple, each one wealthy as can be!
“Amitabha, Master Wuhu is indeed a spirited individual. Since we are all on the sa page about eating at, there’s nothing we can’t discuss. You have all co from afar, deliberately choosing Heavenly Dragon Temple to lecture and preach—what exactly is your purpose? Speak freely, let us hear!”
Master Pipizi, the temple moderator, said with a light smile, while the monks of Heavenly Dragon Temple hadn’t yet touched their chopsticks, staring straight at Ergouzi.
They had already categorized Ergouzi as one of their own, and it was better for everyone to speak openly.
“Although not of the human race, Lord Buddha too grew up in a poor mountain village and knows the fear of poverty. My coming to Heavenly Dragon Temple today has but one goal—to secure resources. And the Lord Buddha does not seek the ager resources of the poor.”
Ergouzi wiped the grease from his mouth with his paw and said coolly.
“Whose resources does the master wish to acquire?”
Master Bobozi asked.
“Whoever has resources, I will earn from them.”
“Then who has resources?”
“You have resources. Look, a Heavenly Immortal Realm chicken you eat without a second thought; how rich one must be! If I don’t earn from you, who should I earn from? The Abbot’s resources are easy to make and aren’t hot to the touch.”
Ergouzi spoke slowly.
“So master, how exactly do you plan to make resources? Don’t tell you plan to rely on preaching scriptures to enlighten the world?”
A smile appeared on Master Bobozi’s face, but his eyes seed sowhat cold.
“The Buddha has already ntioned earlier that a set of mature Magic Treasures has been refined for the use of all people to cultivate, which can enhance one’s enlightennt in a short ti. Coupled with the unique Power of Faith from the Buddhist Sect, breaking through cultivation levels is just a simple task.”
“As long as Heavenly Dragon Temple agrees to join hands with , we can create our business empire right here in this monastery, and the entire monastery’s monks will benefit. Due to our actions, we elevate the cultivation level and collectively ascend, imagine the imnse rit behind this. If we can achieve this feat and extend it to the Great Thunderclap Temple and Bodhi Temple, we are not only talking about re millions of rits but even tens of millions are within reach!”
“This is a golden opportunity to gain both fa and fortune. The Abbot must seize it!”
Ergouzi smiled with a mysterious air.
“May I ask what kind of treasure it is that can affect the monks of the entire Heavenly Dragon Temple? Could it be so Formation technique?”
Master Bobozi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. He intuitively felt that there was more to it, but he couldn’t figure out any flaws, as the visitor hadn’t shown any slip-ups during his short ti in the temple.
“This item is called Huazi, please feel free to evaluate it.”
Ergouzi took out a Huazi, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled a cloud of smoke before snuffing it out. Just a single puff of white smoke could enhance one’s enlightennt and clarity of mind, and was not enough to dissipate the Power of Faith, so there was no need to worry.
A wisp of white smoke wafted through the air, drifting to the noses of the monks. It was very faint, but every single one of them widened their eyes. Although it was only second-hand Huazi smoke and just a thread of it, the effect was genuinely potent, and there was no doubt that with that wisp of smoke, they felt a complete enlightennt.
They felt thoroughly transparent. The scriptures they recited daily in their minds gradually beca clearer, and many principles were self-taught at this mont, naturally forming.
“This… this is a divine item!”
“It indeed has the effect of enhancing enlightennt, and judging by the Abbot’s expression, it is also effective for those in the Saint Realm!”
“Its value is imasurable!”
The monks inside the hall were slightly agitated and noisy. Most of them had only Half-Saint Cultivation Levels, and it was not easy for them to be affected. But to their surprise, both Master Bobozi and Master Pipizi, the Disciplinary Monk, looked utterly intoxicated, seeming imrsed and enjoying themselves, which ant Huazi could enhance the enlightennt of those in the Saint Realm!
“Master Nicholas, how much of this treasure do you have? I will buy it all!”
A mont later, Master Bobozi slowly opened his eyes, his whole person radiant and spirited.
“As much of this treasure as you want, but it can’t be sold to just you alone. It must be sold throughout the entire monastery, opening shops everywhere to make sales.”
“If Master Bobozi agrees, we can start issuing and selling from tomorrow. If you do not wish to share with all the people, then I, the Buddha, will have to try my luck at the neighboring Bodhi Temple!”
