Chapter 164: Possessed by the Devil

The night is already dark.

In the low-level collective dormitory of Luohan Temple, there are many Zhike monks who are responsible for making small donations.

The house looks messy, but it actually hides a secret.

In the Datong bunk, which can accommodate ten people, each person's bed position is not fixed, but is ranked according to the performance of the month.

The further away from the door the bed is, the more 'distinguished' it is, and even the range of moving around is larger.

As for the 'best bed of the month' in the deepest part of the bunk, there are even curtains around it.

In this small dormitory, there is a small world that can barely hide the shame.

"It's almost the end of the month. I have three overdue 'merits' in my name that need to be collected by monks, but the 'merits' I've received are only tens of thousands. It seems that my bed space has to be moved out a few places. "

Monk Huiyin, who was lying on the bed near the door, sighed deeply in his heart, secretly worrying whether he could sleep in the narrow gap at the edge of the bunk.

At this moment, the door of the dormitory was pushed open with a creak.

Amidst the sobbing wind and rain, a tall and round monk walked in first, followed by a smiling Zhike monk.

Seeing this scene, before the great monk could speak, a row of round and shiny heads stood up on the bunk, looking at the monk who knew the guest with envy.

If Master Ketou can come to this low-level dormitory in person in such weather, the Zhike monk behind him may have placed a big order.

"Looking at your looks, you should have guessed what I'm going to say, right?"

A smile appeared on Master Ketou's calm and confident face, "That's right, Junior Brother Huichao released a sum of 'Xiangqian' worth two million banknotes today. Congratulations, everyone."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Ketou took the lead in applauding, and there were immediately a crowd of followers in the dormitory.

Amidst the warm applause, pairs of eyes with hidden jealousy fell on the Zhike monk with the Buddhist name "Hui Chao".

"okay."

Master Ketou raised his hand to stop the applause and said in a loud voice: "From today on, Junior Brother Huichao will be upgraded to an intermediate dormitory to live in, and will have the opportunity to enter the Arhat Buddha Kingdom to listen to the Buddha's voice and practice the Buddha's teachings."

Monk Hui Chao took a step forward, clasped his hands together, and bowed to everyone.

His expression seemed humble, but there was already a sense of pride and indifference in his eyes when he looked at the people in the dormitory.

It seemed that from this moment on, he had transcended and upgraded, and was no longer the same type of person as these low-level Zhike monks.

"Huichao actually promoted a mid-level Zhike monk. Damn it."

"Listen to the Buddha's voice?! Then wouldn't he have a chance to advance to the rank?"

"Hmph, even if the Buddha allows him to enter the Buddha's kingdom, he will still be able to get the lowest level of fruition. It's not that easy to stimulate the wisdom with that little causal calculation power!"

The small whispering sounds echoed in the dormitory.

The Wisdom Root of the Buddhist Kingdom

Words passed into Huiyin's ears one by one, stirring the desire in his heart.

"If I can enter the Buddhist Kingdom, with my qualifications, I will definitely be promoted to the rank!"

Huiyin's eyes were fiery and she murmured in her mouth, "Two million, only two million is enough to make the Buddha show mercy."

The host monk said loudly: "Junior brothers, as long as you save enough incense, the door of Arhat Buddha Kingdom will always be open for you. Amitabha Bodhisattva."

"Amitabha Bodhisattva."

Everyone chanted the Buddha's name loudly in unison, and Monk Huiyin also clasped his hands together with a pious expression.

At this moment, the prayer beads on his wrist trembled slightly, and the frequency was exactly the same as his beating heart.

"The Buddha showed mercy, and at this time, a benefactor actually came to fulfill his wish."

Monk Huiyin suppressed the restlessness in his heart and waited for Monk Ketou to leave. Then he quickly rushed out of the room under the surprised eyes of everyone in the dormitory.

When he opened the narrow side door, Zhou Youyou, covered in rain, stood under the eaves with an excited smile on his face.

"Master Huiyin, I'm sorry to bother you so late."

When Huiyin saw that the person who came was Zhou You, the smile on his face suddenly faded a bit. After looking up and down for a few more times, he could still see the deformed mechanical body under the other person's clothes, and the smile disappeared in an instant.

"My Buddha is compassionate and treats all living beings kindly. A small nuisance is nothing. Almsgiver Zhou comes to visit late at night. Is he here to repay next month's 'blessings'?"

Listening to Hui Yin's indifferent voice, Zhou You didn't take it seriously. He clasped his hands together, clamped the bank card in the tiger's mouth, and handed it over respectfully.

"Thank you for your understanding, Master. I came here this time to repay all the 'merits' I owe."

Repay the entire principal at once? Where did this poor kid get so much money?

Huiyin took the bank card doubtfully and put it on the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and a string of numbers immediately popped up on his retinas.

"You actually have so much money!"

Huiyin's heart skipped a beat, and the fire that had just been extinguished was ignited again.

Did this poor kid find some incredible way to make money? He was able to pay back the money many times in such a short period of time, more and more each time. Now he was able to pay off the entire principal at once.

Monk Huiyin rolled his eyes and had already made a calculation in his heart. He cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the donor, the 'merit' you asked for from the Bodhisattva has been repaid."

Zhou You, who was so excited at this moment, didn't even notice the weirdness that flashed across the other party's eyes. Hearing this, he said excitedly: "Thank you, master, for taking care of me during this period. Can I pick up my brother now?"

"It's logically possible, but" Hui Yin hesitated.

Zhou You's face suddenly froze, and he said in a hurry: "But what?"

"Donor Zhou, according to the contract your brother signed in front of the Buddha at that time, before the 'merit' is not repaid, he needs to enter the Buddha's kingdom and serve in front of the Buddha"

"I know all this, but I have already repaid the 'merit'!"

Hui Yin sighed and showed an embarrassed expression, "But a few days ago, when Donor Zhou's brother was serving a monk, I don't know if he was invaded by evil spirits or his own consciousness was disordered, and he actually attacked the monk."

"Although he did not cause any harm to the monk, he disturbed the purity of the Buddha's kingdom, which is a great sin."

Zhou You was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes full of vicissitudes no longer had the shrewdness of the past, but were full of horror and panic.

He couldn't help but take two steps forward and reached out to grab the monk's sleeve.

"Master, how is my brother?"

Monk Hui Yin stepped back and avoided Zhou You's hands.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou. Although that monk has the power of Vajra, he is compassionate. So your brother has not been punished. Instead, he has regained consciousness under the light of Buddha."

"Thank you, Lord Buddha, thank you, Master."

Zhou You thanked the monk repeatedly and bowed to the monk.

"Don't be polite, Lord Buddha. Although Luohan Temple can not pursue your brother's crime of attacking the monks, he has caused pollution to the Buddha Kingdom."

How could Zhou You not understand Hui Yin's meaning at this moment? He bowed his head deeply and said bitterly: "I will pay for his sins. I don't know how many incense sticks can redeem his sins? Please tell me, Master."

"One million and six hundred thousand treasure notes. And it must be offered to the Lord Buddha within this month. Otherwise, once the monk gets angry with Vajra, your brother may..."

Hui Yin lowered his eyebrows and eyes, with a compassionate look.

The 400,000 principal that Zhou You repaid this time, plus the 1.6 million, can make up 2 million, allowing him to be promoted to the intermediate monk and get the opportunity to enter the Buddha Kingdom.

Although this violated the rules of Luohan Temple, as long as he took good care of the guest master afterwards, he would naturally be forgiven.

After all, all he did was for the temple, and a Buddhist heart could reflect the sun and the moon.

"I understand."

The hope that was already within reach turned into an invisible abyss in the blink of an eye.

Even though Zhou You's will had been tempered to be tough enough, he couldn't help but lose his soul at this time.

Under the monk's burning eyes, the boy turned and walked into the darkness where the temple lights could not illuminate.

Click.

When the narrow side door closed again, Zhou You, who was staggering, turned around suddenly and stared at this magnificent Buddhist temple that was brightly lit all night.

One look was a night.

One night was enough to become a demon.
