"If the master still doesn't want to, then forget it. I will leave now and return this Vairocana Seal to its original owner."

Lin Jichen spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

The elders were delighted after hearing this, thinking that Lin Jichen had a change of heart.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin. On behalf of the entire Buddhist righteous path, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to you."

"Mr. Lin is really a kind-hearted bodhisattva and has a chivalrous spirit. I just misunderstood you. I am sorry. Amitabha."

"Such a great thing, I think it must be treated solemnly. It just so happens that our temple has purchased a lot of fireworks a while ago. Let's take them out to celebrate. What do you think?"

"Good idea! Must be set off!"

"Yes, I'll go get it now!"

....

Several elders chattered and smiled, completely different from the iron-faced and selfless appearance just now.

Lin Jichen saw them laughing so happily, and he also laughed.

"Why are you so happy, masters?"

The fat monk answered as if it was natural: "Mr. Lin is willing to return our Buddhist treasures without asking for anything in return, so of course we are happy."

"That's right!"

"That's right!"

Lin Jichen raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said: "Masters, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't say I would return it to you."

"Uh, didn't you just say that the property should be returned to its original owner?" The fat monk was puzzled.

"That's right." Lin Jichen nodded and said, "Return the property to its original owner. This Vairocana Seal was not taken by your Putuo Temple. How can I give it to you?"

The fat monk suddenly felt something was wrong and asked tentatively, "May I ask, Mr. Lin, where did you get this Vairocana Seal?"

Lin Jichen grinned and said, "It was taught to me by Shengyuan, the eldest disciple of Tianyin Temple in Muxianzhou."

"What????"

Instantly, the atmosphere at the scene dropped to freezing point, and the faces of several elders turned black in an instant.

Good guy, I said that this brat had bad intentions!

Shengyuan has now escaped into the devil's way, and the entire Buddhist sect is hunting him down. Giving it to him is not the same as giving it to the devil cultivator?

How can this be possible!

The fat monk's eyes were sharp, and he said in a muffled voice: "Don't joke, Mr. Lin."

Lin Jichen tilted his head, with an innocent look on his face: "How can I joke? I speak from the bottom of my heart. I said that the property should be returned to its original owner, so it must be returned to its original owner."

"You are deliberately making an enemy of my Buddhist sect!" The fat monk's tone was very cold. He was hot-tempered and wanted to fight in the next second.

Lin Jichen smiled and said: "No, no, I just returned the money, with an open mind and a clear conscience."

"You are looking for trouble!" The fat monk couldn't bear it anymore and was about to take action, but was stopped by the old monk.

The old monk walked out slowly from behind and stopped in front of Lin Jichen. His turbid eyes were calm and there was no joy or anger on his face.

Lin Jichen did not act rashly. He was always on guard, afraid that the other party would suddenly attack.

But after waiting for a long time, the old monk did not take action, but unexpectedly agreed to his request.

"Mr. Lin, I agree, but let me make it clear in advance that if Huangfu Yi does not want to leave, you must not pester him again."

Lin Jichen decisively agreed: "Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back."

"That's great, please go in."

The old monk made an invitation gesture, agreeing to let him go in to recruit people.

It is estimated that he did not believe that Lin Jichen could take Huangfu Yi away. After all, the other party did not even listen to his own brother, so how could he listen to a junior like him.

Lin Jichen was straightforward and directly handed over the jade slip with the seal of the Great Sun Tathagata.

Seeing this, the old monk smiled and joked, "Mr. Lin, aren't you afraid that I will regret it now?"

"I'm not worried at all. If all the masters of Putuo Temple are like this, then I think the Buddhist sects in the world are just like this." Lin Jichen laughed and did not forget to secretly criticize Buddhism.

The old monk was not angry, and took the initiative to lead the way.

Lin Jichen followed him into the strongest Buddhist sect in the world. Compared with the magnificent and magnificent Tianyin Temple, the decoration of Putuo Temple seemed a bit shabby in comparison.

There were no golden Buddhas or golden palaces, but only ordinary temples. The disciples along the way were not as arrogant as the disciples of Tianyin Temple, and they did not wear luxurious brocade monk robes.

They were all busy with their own affairs in ordinary monk robes. Most of the disciples were practicing seriously, and the martial arts field was full of angry shouts.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jichen's impression of Putuo Temple also improved a little.

"Mr. Lin, what did you see?" The old monk suddenly asked.

Lin Jichen was silent for a moment and replied: "I saw the Buddha's energy."

"Oh? What is the Buddha's energy?" The old monk became interested..

Lin Jichen confessed: "It is the temperament of a true Buddhist practitioner. It is not formed deliberately, but the aura that comes with long-term practice of Buddhism. It seems that every disciple here has it."

The old monk smiled when he heard this and praised: "Mr. Lin is indeed quite predestined with Buddhism and can easily sense the root of Buddhism. My senior brother told me about your discussion with him at the Buddhist Mountain. I was also quite inspired after hearing it. I am ashamed of your understanding of Buddhism. I am ashamed."

"How can I compare with the master? I just heard others say it casually." Lin Jichen hurriedly said modestly.

"Mr. Lin is too modest. To be honest, our Buddhist sect does not want to be enemies with Mr. Lin. After checking the previous incident, it was indeed the fault of my useless junior brother Zhiyuan. Now that the truth is out, I apologize to you on behalf of the entire Buddhist sect. In fact, for someone like Mr. Lin who has a deep affinity with Buddhism, our Buddhist sect prefers to make friends rather than enemies."

"Master, you are too polite. In fact, I also respect the real Buddhist masters. The main reason is that I was disgusted by Zhiyuan and his disciples before. It's not that I really have any opinions about your Buddhist sect. I still like to make friends, haha."

Lin Jichen said with a smile. Who would take the initiative to make enemies with the Buddhist sect when they are full and have nothing to do? It would be best if they could turn enemies into friends.

Of course, Lin Jichen did not believe all the words of the old monk, mainly because he was afraid of being cheated.

I thought the atmosphere would continue to be so harmonious, but I didn't expect that the old monk's words in the next second almost scared Lin Jichen to death.

"Master Lin, are you serious about your relationship with my junior sister Jingyi?"

Lin Jichen's pupils shrank slightly, and he looked like he had seen a ghost. After his brain crashed for a few seconds, he opened his mouth and said, "Fuck, Master, don't talk nonsense!"

"I...I...When did I have anything to do with Jingyi Shenni? We are serious friends. Don't talk nonsense. I will sue you for defamation. Really, I will sue you for defamation."

Lin Jichen felt so fucked up. What was this old monk thinking? How could he be in a relationship with Jingyi Shenni? This was clearly defamation!
