Datang unsigned for six years, only to know that it is Journey to the West

Elder Jinchi was a little startled.

He didn't expect Su Chen to know so many things.

I also know that he came here to wait for an opportunity.

I just don't know, whether Su Chen knows what this opportunity is.Of course, Elder Jin Chi himself didn't know, he only knew who to wait for.

"Fellow Daoist, can I take a step to speak?"

Elder Jin Chi also gave Su Chen a high look, and immediately invited him aside to discuss in detail.

Su Chen chuckled, that's what he wanted.

He said, "Why not?"

Immediately, he let Elder Jinchi lead the way, and he and Xiong Wei followed, and soon changed to a secluded Buddhist temple.

Here, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it is rare that there is no smell of copper.

However, it is full of resplendent and magnificent.

The decoration is very luxurious, the tables, chairs and benches are all made of high-quality stone, and the teacups and fruit plates are all porcelain handed down from the Tang Dynasty.

Elder Jin Chi caressed very preciously, and said with a smile: "The poor monk has never been to the Tang Dynasty. I heard that these porcelains are everywhere in the Tang Dynasty?!"

Su Chen said: "Master was joking. Not everyone in the Tang Dynasty can afford porcelain. These are handmade by famous masters, and ordinary people have never seen them."

Elder Jinchi's eyes lit up, what he wanted was that others didn't have it, and this made him full of vanity.

Then he said: "The poor monk has a tin staff made of bronze, how about the bronzes of the Tang Dynasty?!"

Su Chen said: "There are quite a lot of bronze wares in the Tang Dynasty, but ordinary people don't have them. Most of them are made of iron and wood."

Elder Jinchi was elated.

The monks around are also honored.

Su Chen then said: "The people of the Tang Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment. Although there are wealthy people, most of them are low-key and well-off families."

"That's why the rich merchants of the Tang Dynasty are so luxurious. They are extremely luxurious. Porcelain and silk, as well as various bronze and gold and silver vessels, are everywhere and can be seen everywhere."

Elder Jinchi was dumbfounded.

The monks around were also dumbfounded, unable to believe it.

In the hands of the rich merchants of the Tang Dynasty, the precious treasures they have here can be seen everywhere, and there are countless of them.

All of a sudden, their imagination of the rich merchant's family in the Tang Dynasty has reached its peak.

Some monks even wondered whether the rich merchants of the Tang Dynasty used gold hoes to plow the land, and whether the steamed buns they ate were all made of gold!
Elder Jinchi said: "I thought the old monk lived for more than 270 years, but I didn't expect that he was not as good as one ten-thousandth of the wealthy businessman in Datang."

Su Chen said: "The master is a monk, so there is no need to compare with those ordinary people."

Elder Jinchi's mouth is parched, he just wants to compare, if people don't compare, if they don't compete, what's the use of living.

He choked up and said: "The old monk has lived for so long, in fact, he just doesn't want to lose to others, otherwise it is not the old monk who loses, but the face of Buddhism."

Xiong Wei sneered beside him.

Elder Jinchi couldn't hold back his face, and the monks around him were very angry.

Su Chen also glared at Xiong Wei, and said, "Naughty animal, don't be rude, why don't you back down?"

Xiong Wei bowed his body and took a few steps back.

But in the glance of his eyes, he didn't pay attention to Elder Jin Chi, nor did he pay attention to those monks.

Elder Jin Chi said: "It's no wonder that Taoist priests look down on high-ranking disciples, and this old monk is left behind."

But Su Chen said: "The master is just maintaining his true temperament. This is a great state, and many people can't do it."

Elder Jin Chi was overjoyed immediately, thinking that Su Chen was really a good person.

Su Chen continued: "However, the rich merchants in the Tang Dynasty only have some gold, silver and jewelry, and they have no reputation in the territory of the Tang Dynasty."

Elder Jinchi was taken aback for a moment, and said, "How can you be considered to be on the stage?"

Su Chen said: "The nobles of the Tang Dynasty all have some treasures to house their houses. It is noble to carry the treasures with them. Mere gold, silver and jewelry are not worth mentioning."

The monks all looked at each other and gasped.

Do you have treasures on you?

Elder Jinchi was also surprised: "How can it be regarded as carrying a treasure with you?"

Su Chen said: "For example, the eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty wore silk and precious robes, brocade cassocks, nine-ring tin rods, and purple gold bowls!"

"The wooden fish knocked are all carved from thousand-year-old sandalwood, and the scriptures read are even copied by contemporary literati on rice paper given by the emperor."

The eyes of the monks were straightened, and Elder Jin Chi couldn't help crying.

Su Chen said, "Master, why are you crying?"

Elder Jinchi said: "The old monk has lived his whole life, but he has never enjoyed such a luxurious life. Just thinking about it makes him envious. Perhaps, that is the real Paradise of Ultimate Bliss."

The monks also nodded one after another. The world of bliss in their eyes is nothing more than that.

Su Chen was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Master, you don't have to be envious, it's just passing by."

Elder Jin Chi shook his head and said, "That is my Buddhist Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, how can it be said to be a flash in the air? Isn't the purpose of our practice to reach such a state!"

Su Chen was speechless for a moment.

Then Su Chen talked a lot, telling about the places where some eminent monks practiced in Shaoqing Temple, and all the things they enjoyed, which was enough to make Elder Jinchi and other monks envious.

All of a sudden, I was even more envious, thinking that they were still ascetic monks, and the monks in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty were really in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.

After an hour, Su Chen got up to rest on the grounds that he was tired.

Elder Jin Chi got up quickly, and said: "Hurry up and send the Taoist priest to rest, Taoist priest, the old monk will disturb you after a while."

Su Chen said: "I didn't expect the master to be so hospitable, that's all, there is a jade pendant here in Pindao, which was given by the nobles of the Tang Dynasty when he was traveling in the clouds. Give it to the master."

He casually took off a jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to Elder Jinchi.

Elder Jin Chi could feel the difference just by holding it in his hand. He only felt that this jade pendant was really a rich and luxurious treasure, with a powerful aura.

"What a jade pendant!"

"It's not a big deal. The alms bowls used by the eminent monks in Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty are also made of jade, and even the beds they sleep on are also made of jade."

hiss!
Elder Jin Chi's eyes were red, and he suppressed tears, so he didn't let himself cry.

Compared with the eminent monks and masters in Chang'an, I am really in hell.

That is the real paradise where eminent monks live, it is so enviable.

Next, Su Chen and Xiong Wei were led by the monk to rest in the guest room, because the benefits were given out, so the guest room was the best.

But compared with Chang'an, it is nothing.

Su Chen also gave a piece of silver to each of the monks who led the way, which was so generous that the monks nodded and bowed.

"Daoist, please rest well, if you have something to do, please tell me."

"Elder Immortal, rest well. If necessary, we also have some female pilgrims here, and they are happy to serve Elder Immortal."

Su Chen chuckled and told them all to retreat.

Close the door.

Xiong Wei couldn't bear it any longer, and said: "Master, these monks are all money-hungry bastards, and you still indulge them, I really don't understand."

Su Chen said: "If people are to perish, they must be crazy."

Xiong Wei is not stupid, upon hearing this, he suddenly understood, and said: "Master wants to deal with them? But, just kill them directly, they have deceived many pilgrims along the way."

Su Chen said: "They still have some uses, and someone will naturally deal with them."

In fact, Su Chen didn't have any good feelings for the people of Guanyin Temple. Regardless of the original trajectory, those monks would be blinded by money, and would kill people to seize treasures when they saw treasures.

In the original trajectory, Monkey King and his party passed by here, exposing the treasures, causing the monks to kill people and steal the goods when they saw the money, and then set fire to their own monastery and burned the elder Jinchi to death.

The other monks were all accomplices, but nothing happened.

Afterwards, Sun Wukong and Xuanzang did not blame them, and even comforted them, telling them to reform themselves.

Ha ha.

The country is easy to change and the nature is difficult to change.

Su Chen never believed that these people would change, so this time he planned to do it all at once.

However, if he can take advantage of it, he still wants to use it.

"Why did Master give away that jade pendant? Could it be another bait?!"

"That's right, the bait is thrown out, and the next thing is to wait for the fish to take the bait."

He began to rest with his eyes closed, waiting for the moment.

It won't be long before the other side of the monastery is already noisy.

"Is what this person said true?"

"Is Datang really so rich?"

"It's absolutely true, otherwise, why would you be willing to give away such a precious jade pendant?"

"This Taoist priest claims to practice hard work, but the results are so rich. The eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty really live in the Paradise of Paradise. Why do we deserve to suffer?!"

The monks were all aggrieved.

Then someone proposed to go to Chang'an as well, but it was quickly rejected because they did not have a customs clearance certificate.

Someone proposed to go to the monster of Heifeng Mountain for help, but it was rejected again. They were afraid that the monster of Heifeng Mountain would know that they had the jade pendant and would snatch it away.

While arguing endlessly, Elder Jin Yuan said in a low voice: "Brother presiding officer, that Taoist priest probably has real skills. I also have some Taoist skills, but I can't tell how deep he is."

Elder Jinchi nodded and said: "I have already seen that the Taoist priest's cultivation is extremely profound, and there are few mortals who are his opponents."

As a person who has lived for two or three hundred years, Elder Jinchi naturally has a cultivation base, but most of them are drug addicts, and now they also have the realm of real people.

But he couldn't see the depth of Su Chen.

"I'm afraid that Taoist is an expert from the Tang Dynasty, and he can pinch and count. If you pass by here, if you make good friends, there will be a lot of benefits."

A disciple said: "Why don't you set fire to him and take the opportunity to take his treasure?"

Many monks nodded their approval repeatedly.

Elder Jin Chi said: "Nonsense, the treasures he brings with him are definitely not as valuable as his wealth. If we make friends with him, we may be able to go to Datang in the future and get more."

Then he ordered everyone to leave.

His eyes flickered, he thought more, hesitated for half an hour, and pushed open the door of Su Chen's room.

Su Chen smiled, his fish was hooked.

Elder Jin Chi put his palms together when he entered the door, "Amitabha, Taoist priest, have you rested?"

Su Chen said, "Have a good rest."

Elder Jinchi closed the door, and there were only three of them left in the room.

Su Chen said, "What's the matter with the elder?"

Elder Jin Chi burst into tears and cried, "Master Daoist, the old monk has lived for more than 270 years, and it was all in vain."

"I have been in hell all my life, and I have never seen the Paradise of Bliss. I don't know if I can still make a fortune in this life."

Su Chen said: "Isn't the elder just waiting for a chance, just wait."

Elder Jinchi said: "Opportunities are nothing but illusory, whether they are real or not is uncertain, and whether they can bring wealth and glory to the old monk is even more uncertain."

Su Chen remained silent.

Elder Jinchi said: "Master Daoist, you said before that you can pinch and count. You are well-known in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. Can you count as a lottery for an old monk?!"

Su Chen smiled and said, "What do you want?"

Elder Jinchi's eyes lit up, and he said without hesitation: "Old monk, I would like to ask, what will happen to the future of this old monk?!"
