Chapter 250: Your temple's king is not clean
Brother, I am suffering!
As soon as Prince Chengxi saw his senior brother, he immediately started to complain and said how difficult the past few days had been for him.
If there were no other monks watching around, he would hold on to his brother's thighs and not let go, recounting his suffering from that moment until sunrise tomorrow.
Abbot Chenghai frowned slightly, glanced at his junior brother who was about to cry with disdain, and finally did not say the words "let go and go away".
After sending away the monks around them, the two men entered the room, and Prince Chengxi finally calmed down.
"Keep calm and don't panic. How can you set an example for other monks if you behave like this?"
The abbot of Chenghai gently scolded Prince Chengxi and told him to stand further away and not come close to him.
"Brother, it is enough for our temple to have you as a role model. I am not born to be that kind of person."
"Stop being funny and get to the point."
"I am worried that Master Padmasambhava will come again. He seems to have discovered the truth about the Chakravartin."
Abbot Chenghai was very calm about this, "The Chakravartin has always been the only real one. No matter how capable Master Liansheng is, he cannot change this fact."
"But the Wheel King does not have such powerful magical powers, which is somewhat inconsistent with what is described in the scriptures."
"Are you obsessed too?"
Abbot Chenghai looked at his junior fellow apprentice with disdain and said, "Who said that only those with great supernatural powers and great magical powers can be true wheel kings?"
"When the King of Wheels awakens his consciousness, just like the newborn Buddha girl, he needs to practice again to achieve the status of Buddha or Bodhisattva."
"What we at the Chakravartin Temple need to do is to assist the Chakravartin to regain his position of enlightenment and subdue everything."
Prince Chengxi nodded silently, indicating that he understood.
"As for Master Liansheng... there are more people who want to target him than just our Lunwang Temple. Sooner or later, he will be unable to take care of himself."
Just as the two were discussing matters related to Master Liansheng, a monk knocked on the door.
"Master, there is a monk in front of the mountain gate who calls himself Liansheng and wants to visit the temple."
Liansheng?
It’s the Master Liansheng from Tokyo!
Abbot Chenghai and Prince Chengxi hurried out of the room and led a group of monks to the mountain gate.
In front of the mountain gate, under the bright moon.
Leading the group was a young man in a monk's robe, followed by two men and one woman. The girl held a sword case in both hands.
Master Liansheng, are you really so young?
When Abbot Chenghai and Prince Chengxi saw Pinggong Qianye for the first time, they both felt something strange in their hearts.
They had only heard of Master Liansheng or seen his photos circulated on social media, but had never seen him in person.
Now, when I face him face to face, I realize that Master Liansheng is really too young.
How could such a young monk be able to fight with the Wheel King for two nights?
Prince Chengxi of France was confused in his heart but his face remained calm.
"Master Liansheng, what is the important matter that brings you here so late at night?" Host Chenghai spoke first.
"I have come for the Chakravartin in the temple."
"Master Padmasambhava wants to pay homage to the Chakravartin. Why doesn't he come during the day?"
"Today is Friday and I have classes during the day."
"..."
Abbot Chenghai was stunned for a while, then smiled and said, "Since Master Liansheng is here in person, you can pay homage to the King of Wheels. Please come this way."
Pinggong Qianye did not correct the word "worship" in his words, but followed Abbot Chenghai all the way from the mountain gate to the hall where the Wheel King was enshrined.
On the way, he carefully looked at the surrounding scenery and silently activated the "Fate Vision", making sure that this was the place that the "Fate Vision" had sensed.
In other words, there were monks involved in planning the murder of monks.
Before entering the main hall, Abbot Chenghai stopped, turned around and faced Pinggong Qianye.
"Master Liansheng, are you here just to pay homage to the Chakravartin tonight?"
"There's just one little thing to sort out."
"Can our temple help Master Liansheng?"
"can."
Pinggong Qianye nodded calmly, "I came here to find the conspirator of the murder of the monk on the banks of the Arakawa River."
The smile on Master Chenghai's face faded a little, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Master Liansheng, do you suspect that this matter is related to our Lunwang Temple?" "Yes."
"Heh, this place is far away from Arakawa. How could the monks of our temple be involved in the so-called killing of monks?"
"It's not too far, just a few hours' drive."
The atmosphere around him grew noticeably colder, and the monks who were following him and behind him showed obvious anger on their faces.
Abbot Chenghai's smile disappeared from his face. The Dharma Prince Chengxi beside him raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "Master Liansheng, we respect you as a great monk in Buddhism, but this does not mean that you can speak nonsense in the pure land of Buddhism and wrongly accuse the monks of our temple!"
"I have cultivated the Fate-Seeing Skill."
Pinggong Qianye just responded calmly, leaving Prince Chengxi speechless for a moment.
"The ability to know past and future" is one of the six supernatural powers in Buddhism. It can know the past and future of all living beings and enjoys a very high status and credibility in Buddhism.
When the monks of the Chakravartin heard about the past lives, they silently put aside their suspicion and anger and began to think about whether there really were monks involved in the killing of monks thousands of miles away.
Abbot Chenghai was calm and said in a gentle voice, "Master Liansheng, have you used the Fate Vision to see which monk in my temple was involved in the killing of monks?"
Pinggong Qianye did not answer, but looked towards the hall in front of him.
The wheel king who had fought with him for two nights was now enshrined inside.
He has already prepared himself for a conflict, and is absorbing the power of incense and faith from the entire Rinno-ji Temple, intending to wake himself up in a stronger state.
The abbot from Chenghai should also know this, so he deliberately stopped and blocked himself outside the hall, trying to delay time.
"The Chakravartin enshrined in your temple is not clean."
Heimiya Chiye's words shocked the monks of Rinnoji Temple and caused most of them to be confused and wondered what the words meant.
Only a small group of trusted monks vaguely knew what Pinggong Qianye was referring to.
"absurd!"
Prince Chengxi took a step forward, showing an angry look, and shouted: "The King of Wheels is the Buddha enshrined in my temple, and you will not be allowed to slander him!"
As he spoke, some monks followed suit and shouted.
Some monks even rolled up their robes, ready to pick up brooms, shoulder poles and other items in the temple to drive out these uninvited guests.
They are believers of the Wheel King. If the Wheel King they worship is not clean, then they are also not clean.
This is blatant blasphemy!
Just when Pinggong Qianye was about to demolish the hall, the phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and calmly answered the call.
"Hey, Hiramiya-san, we're ready to go. How are things going over there?"
“It’s being processed.”
"Is there any danger?"
"Can't talk about it."
"Am I interrupting you now?"
"Fortunately."
After a brief chat, Horii Suzune on the other end of the phone realized something was wrong, said "Be careful", and hung up in a hurry.
The call lasted only about 20 seconds, but it made the originally noisy scene suddenly quiet.
Pinggong Qianye put away his phone and looked at the Prince Chengxi who had just spoken, "Where were we talking about just now?"
"..."
The corners of Prince Chengxi's mouth twitched a few times, and he took a deep breath before scolding again in an angry tone, "My temple king is not someone you can slander!"
He did not slander the Chakravartin of Chakravartin Temple, he was just stating a fact.
It's just a fact that they are unwilling to accept.
Hiramiya Chiye nodded and looked behind him. Iori Fubuki naturally took two steps forward with the sword case in his hand and came in front of Hiramiya Chiye.
Under the gaze of many monks from Rinnoji Temple, Heimiya Chiye reached out and slowly opened the sword case, shouting softly.
Manjushri raises his sword!
Manjusri's sword moved, rolling up a tail of golden light, soaring into the air, and lightly drew it through the air. The golden sword energy rushed forward like a surging wave.
With just one sword, he shattered the palace in front of him!
The sharp sword tip pointed directly at the statue of the Wheel King sitting in the center!
