Honghuang: God-level choice, start by taking over Zhao Gongming

On the streets extending in all directions, there was an endless stream of carriages, pedestrians, vendors, and nobles. They came and went, which made everyone in Jiang Liuer stare blankly.

Zhu Gangxi exclaimed, "I haven't encountered such a lively city for a long time, and I can have a good rest for a few days."

Monk Sha said in a deep voice, "Third Senior Brother, please don't forget what our responsibilities are. We'd better hurry up and leave as soon as possible."

"I was just talking, I didn't say I really wanted to live in the city."

Zhu Ganghe curled his lips, looking unhappy.

Jiang Liu'er said with a smile, "Most of our journey has been through barren mountains and ridges with sparsely populated areas. Now that we are in this prosperous city, it doesn't matter if we wander around a lot."

Zhu Ganghe's face was filled with joy, "Master should understand the situation. This Jinping Mansion is so prosperous, with countless fun and delicious places. Wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't go shopping?"

Jiang Liu'er and Zhu Gangxi wandered around the bustling streets for a whole afternoon before they stopped and were ready to find an inn to rest.

As soon as they walked to an inn, they saw an old monk with white hair and beard standing in front of them. Next to the old monk, there was a young novice monk.

The old monk looked at Jiang Liu'er and his party, slightly surprised, "Elders, are you all monks like us?"

Otherwise, the costumes of Jiang Liuer and others are too strange, very different from the monks of Jinping Mansion.

Therefore, although Jiang Liuer and his party looked very much like monks, the old monk did not dare to confirm easily.

Jiang Liu'er was about to speak, but Sun Wukong had already spoken in front of him.

"We are monks who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East. Following the decree of the King of Tang, we went to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. We traveled westward and came to Jinping Mansion. Seeing how lively the city is, we planned to stay there longer. A few days.”

The old monk nodded, "So that's it. We've also heard about the Tang Dynasty. We heard that the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was an unborn overlord with great talents and great strategies. His achievements in his life are shining through the annals of history, which really fascinates us. I admire you in my heart.”

After the old monk finished speaking, he sighed again, "It's a pity that the Tang Dynasty is too far away from here. Otherwise, I really want to visit the Tang Dynasty."

Jiang Liuer smiled and pointed to the inn in front of the door, "Master, do you know which inn has the best reputation and is suitable for living?"

The old monk looked confused, "Staying in an inn, several elders have come all the way. If you take out the customs clearance documents, even His Majesty the Emperor will personally summon the elders. Why go to the inn in the residential area?"

Jiang Liuer smiled and said, "We originally planned to play around here for a while. It would be bad if we showed the customs clearance document and disturbed His Majesty the Emperor."

The old monk nodded, "That's quite right."

He paused and asked, "The environment in our Ciyun Temple is not bad. If you elders don't mind, you can come with me to live in Ciyun Temple for a few days. The environment is quiet and very nice."

"Free food and free living?"

Zhu Ganghye's eyes suddenly opened wide.

The old monk smiled slightly and said straight to the point, "Our Ciyun Temple is, after all, the largest temple in the entire Jinping Mansion with the least amount of oil and oil. We only have some food and drink, and we can also lack some food for the elders. This is too disrespectful to me. Is it Ciyun Temple?”

Jiang Liu'er and others thought for a while before nodding, "Yeah, it's really better to go to Ciyun Temple to stay for a few days."

The master and the disciples reached the same goal and followed the old monk. Not long after walking, they arrived at Ciyun Temple.

Ciyun Temple is simple and elegant. It does not have the splendor of other temples. On the contrary, it has some Taoist-like otherworldliness and is not like the fireworks of the world.

Jiang Liu'er and his party walked into Ciyun Temple. There were not many novice monks inside, probably only a few dozen. Although there were not many people, they had cleaned the entire courtyard, which made people feel very comfortable when they saw it. .

The old monk took Jiang Liu'er and others to find a few clean Zen rooms and settled down temporarily.

In the next few days, many monks from Ciyun Temple and Jiang Liuer almost transformed the entire Jinping Mansion. The delicious food and fun made people linger and forget about Shu.

Compared with other countries on the westward journey, this Jinping Mansion is the real paradise. Anyway, Jiang Liuer encountered countless countries along the way, but none of them could compare with Jinping Mansion.

I stayed in Jinping Mansion for about ten days. I basically did all the things that I should do and tasted most of the things I should eat.

So Jiang Liu'er took the initiative to mention to the old monk, "Elder, we have been in your place for more than ten days, and it's time to leave. Thank you very much, Elder, for your hospitality these days. I can't thank you enough."

After Jiang Liuer awakened his true spirit, instead of becoming more bloodthirsty, he became calm and polite to everyone and everything. It was obvious that after countless reincarnations, his state of mind had greatly improved.

After hearing this, the old monk showed regret, but the Buddhist monk had already made up his mind and could only agree first.

But not long after agreeing, the old monk's face changed slightly, and he immediately said, "Elders, wait a moment, we still have something to say."

"What words?"

Jiang Liu'er and his group asked back.

"In two or three days, it will be the Lantern Festival. Why don't some elders like me to celebrate the Lantern Festival before leaving? During the Lantern Festival, there will be a gorgeous lantern festival, and Buddha will come to collect the oil. It's so hot.

It was so noisy. "

After hearing this, the Jiangliu children pondered for a while and couldn't help but wonder.

"Buddha came here to collect oil. I have never heard of any Buddha from Buddhism who likes to eat oil."

Everyone's curiosity was aroused and they stopped talking about going home.

After two or three days, the Lantern Festival finally arrived.

The old monk took Jiang Liu'er and his group to go shopping. There were lights and colorful decorations along the way, and it was very lively. What was surprisingly consistent was that at the door of every house, there was a vat filled with golden oil. Across the distance, A strong aroma has hit my face.

"Is this the oil offered to the Buddha?"

The little black dragon stepped forward, dipped some on his finger, and found nothing unusual.

The old monk said, "Yes, this oil is offered to the Buddhas. During the Lantern Festival, you are only responsible for putting out the oil. When night falls, the Buddhas will naturally harvest the oil. It is precisely because we, the people of Jinping Mansion, offer these oils every year that we can have good weather and live in peace and contentment.”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Liuer asked, "I dare to ask the elders, do you know which Buddha you worship?"

The old monk looked at Jiang Liu'er strangely, "Of course they are the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guanshiyin, Venerable Manjushri, and Venerable Samantabhadra."

"So that's it."

Jiang Liu'er nodded secretly. The so-called Buddha was probably a fake.

They traveled westward and had lots of contact with Guanyin. How could the three of them be so holy in Jinping Mansion? It was simply impossible.
