The old monk was stuffed into the incense burner, and his limbs kept flailing around, but he was like a turtle with his belly up. He couldn't turn over, but instead raised up the incense ash all over the sky, choking him half to death.
"Spare your life! Spare your life!!"
The old monk was no match for Yan Shouyi. Seeing that the situation was not right, he could only cry out and beg for mercy.
"Shut up!"
Yan Shou was upset when he heard this, so he simply grabbed a handful of incense ash and stuffed it into the old monk's mouth.
This plug was indeed effective. The old monk was busy spitting incense and ashes and had no time to shout.
The two monks stumbled to their feet at this moment. Seeing Yan Shou's hand being so cruel, they did not dare to step forward for a moment.
Yan Shouyi said coldly: "Bring my friend to see me, otherwise I will fill every hole in this old bald donkey's body with incense ash!"
After hearing this, the old monk kept shouting, apparently reminding the two monks not to give up on him.
The two monks gritted their teeth and said to Yan Shouyi:
"Donor, we can't be the master of this matter!"
"Who can make the decision?" Yan Shou turned around and looked at the old monk, "You?"
The old monk quickly shook his head, his eyes almost sparkling with anxiety.
Fortunately, the monk was sensible and hurriedly said: "We all obey the abbot's orders. If the abbot doesn't nod, even if you beat us to death, we won't dare to let him go!"
"What do you mean, this old bald donkey is not the abbot?" Yan Shouyi was confused.
"Abbot Haixin was the previous abbot..."
Yan Shouyi frowned.
The abbot and the abbot are different. The abbot is just the person who manages the affairs of the temple, large and small, and has greater power, while the abbot is the spiritual leader. Although the actual power is not as good as the abbot, his prestige is higher than the abbot.
If there are differences of opinion between the two, the abbot will definitely have a greater say.
There must be an abbot in the temple, but there may not be an abbot, and under normal circumstances, there is a high probability that the abbot and abbot will be the same person.
But the old monk in front of him, whose name is Hai Xin, is obviously called the abbot, but he is also the former abbot. He should have a high prestige, but now it seems that his status in the Side Temple is not high.
This Four Virtues Temple is actually full of weirdness.
No matter so much!
Yan Shou said to the two monks: "Call your abbot out to see me!"
The monk looked embarrassed.
"Isn't this okay?"
Yan Shouyi's face turned cold, he turned around, grabbed the incense ashes, and said to Abbot Haixin: "Master, when you arrive in the Paradise, remember to say hello to the Buddha for me!"
"Don't! Don't don't!"
Abbot Haixin finally spit out the incense ash just now, no matter how bitter and astringent his mouth was, he quickly waved his hand: "Everything can be discussed!"
"Are you sure?"
"That's natural. Monks don't lie!" Abbot Haixin said quickly.
"But I think you, a bitch like you, would lie to me."
"If I lie to others, I will be struck by lightning from heaven!"
Yan Shouyi still didn't believe in Abbot Haixin, so he thought of a way to test whether Abbot Haixin was a real monk.
Yan Shouyi grabbed Abbot Haixin's collar, hung the hand holding the incense ash in front of him, and threatened:
"Recite the Diamond Sutra once and I will believe you. If you can't recite it..."
Abbot Haixin turned pale with fright, but instinctively clasped his hands together and began to recite the Diamond Sutra.
"I heard that at one time, the Buddha was in the Solitary Garden of Sāvatthi Province, together with a group of 1,250 great bhikkhus. At that time, the World Honored One, while eating, put on his clothes and held an alms bowl, and went to the great city of Sāvatthi to beg for food..."
It's quite smooth to carry.
Yan Shouyi observed Abbot Haixin and reluctantly believed that he was a true monk.
So he pulled Abbot Haixin out of the incense burner, but still held on to him and didn't let go:
"Okay, stop carrying it. Why can't your abbot come out to see me?"
Abbot Haixin said with a bitter face: "The donor doesn't know something. The abbot is huge and can't leave his house. Even if we go there in person, we can't lift him out... If the donor is willing, I can take you to see him."
Abbot, it’s just..."
"Just what?" Yan Shou frowned.
Abbot Haixin gritted his teeth: "I can see that the donor is not an ordinary person, but I still hope that the donor will not cause too many troubles. I will go in later to intercede. If the abbot is willing to let him go, the donor will quickly take your friends and leave the money."
Let’s go to Lu Zhen!”
Unexpectedly, Abbot Haixin actually had some kindness.
However, Yan Shouyi did not completely believe in Abbot Haixin.
He must come back. As for the abbot, it is Yan Shouyi who has the final say on how to deal with it. The premise is that he must meet with him first.
So he let go of Abbot Haixin, patted the ashes on his body, and said loudly:
"lead the way!"
Abbot Haixin limped out, and two monks quickly helped him.
The three of them looked back at the one-eyed Yan Shouyi, with a hint of expectation in their hearts.
"Donor, please..."
Under the leadership of the three people, Yan Shouyi walked around the main hall and went to the backyard. After walking through a winding path, he came to a room that was only one size smaller than the main hall.
All eight doors of the house are open, and there are large and small incense burners placed inside and outside. Each incense burner is lit with incense. The strong smell of incense is almost suffocating.
As soon as Yan Shou saw it, Brother Yang was kneeling on the futon in the room. His hair had been shaved, and he was knocking his head on the ground very "sincerely" and mumbling something.
As soon as Yan Shou walked to the threshold, he asked Abbot Haixin: "Where is the abbot?"
Abbot Haixin lowered his head and said, "Isn't the abbot inside?"
Hearing this, Yan Shou looked up, and then his pupils shrank slightly.
What he saw in front of Brother Yang was a huge "meat ball". The meat ball expanded and contracted rhythmically. If you looked closely, there was a large black hole, inside which was accumulated filth and stench.
This is a fat pig monk who is as tall as a mountain. He needs to lower his head when sitting in the room, otherwise the ceiling will burst. He is half-clothed, with fat piled up all over his body, and his body looks like a heavy
The turtle shell and limbs can even shrink into the fat.
At this moment, the "abbot" was sleeping soundly, snoring like thunder, and his saliva flowed into a small river, flowing past Brother Yang.
Is this the abbot of Sidoku Temple?
Yan Shouyi narrowed his eyes.
No wonder Abbot Haixin said just now that the abbot cannot come out to see me. The abbot cannot even leave this room.
There are so many tribute incense burned here, probably to cover up the sour smell of the abbot... Well, I didn't notice it before, but now that I'm closer, I can smell it a little bit.
The smoke of these incense masks not only the sour smell of the abbot, but also the evil spirit!
Yan Shouyi also discovered that the abbot's appearance looked a bit like the inner demon he saw in Master Miaohui's world of illusions.
