The abbot of Jinshan Temple is about to pass away.

Since the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, there are few eminent monks in the world. This old monk has always been worshipped by believers as a living arhat.

One is to admire his virtues, and the other is to respect his achievements.

The old monk has practiced for dozens of years, and has subdued countless demons and saved countless people from danger.

Therefore, after the news spread, believers came to Jinshan Temple every day to burn incense and pray to the Buddha to allow this great man to stay in the world for a few more days to benefit the villagers.

Of course, good wishes are just wishes after all. No one can keep those who are supposed to leave, and no one can stop those who are supposed to come.

The old abbot is destined to leave, so the choice of his successor is very important.

Although monks are said to have pure six senses, inheritance is a matter of utmost importance. If entrusted to the wrong person, the great reputation and foundation of Jinshan Temple would probably be destroyed.

Originally, this was not a big deal a year ago, because among all the disciples of the Fa generation, no one could be compared with Fahai.

But ever since Fa Ming, who was at the end of the Fa generation, had an epiphany last year and built the six-foot-tall golden body that no one had achieved in Jinshan Temple for a hundred years, there is one more choice for the successor.

Fahai is the popular choice as the eldest brother. Whether in terms of Buddha nature or cultivation, he is the best choice.

However, the six-foot-tall golden statue is related to the unique skills that have been sealed for many years in Jinshan Temple, which is of great importance and also very important.

The matter of succession suddenly became suspenseful.

Seeing that the old abbot's cultivation was getting weaker and weaker, and the Buddha's light on his body was getting stronger and stronger, everyone knew that time was running out.

If you don't make a choice quickly, good things may turn into bad things.

early morning.

Outside the meditation room of Jinshan Temple.

"Brother! Brother! Brother Fa Ming!"

The little monk stumbled in, shouting loudly and looking around: "Brother Fa Ming, where are you?!"

After searching for a while and not finding anyone, he was so anxious that he stamped his feet and almost cried.

"What are you arguing about?"

Fa Ming glanced at the little guy lazily and said, "Why do you have to make me go?"

"Oh, this is a big deal, how can you be so careless?"

The young monk slapped his thigh and said, "Brother Fahai left early in the morning."

"If he goes, he goes. What does it have to do with me?"

Fa Ming, or rather Amber, turned around and pointed his butt at the little monk, "No, no, no."

"well!!"

The young monk stamped his feet, knowing that he could not persuade the man, so he had to go back and report obediently.

Hearing the footsteps gradually fading away, Amber sat up straight again and continued to drink her wine.

Buddhist practice is different from Taoist practice. Supernatural powers and spells are closely related to the cultivation of the mind. No matter how much and how deep the Buddha power you accumulate in your daily life is, if you have not realized the true meaning of Buddhism, you are just a layman.

And if you understand it, your practice will improve by leaps and bounds.

The original owner of this body, Fa Ming, had been in the temple for more than ten years, from a young novice to a formal monk. His cultivation had just reached the Mingxin level, and he could only control the Buddha's power to deal with some weaker demons.

In comparison, Fahai not only had already realized his true nature long ago, but was also only one step away from attaining the status of an Arhat.

If you can cross it, the sky will be vast and the sea will be vast, and you will no longer be troubled by life and death. If you cannot cross it, you will still be a great monk, and your methods of exorcising demons and monsters are absolutely perfect. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the best monk of the Fa generation.

But now, after Amber brought other powers into the space, his mind and character have long been perfect, but it is not a complete Buddhist foundation, it is quite complicated.

Fortunately, this thing cannot be seen from the outside, and the monks in Jinshan Temple only thought it was the manifestation of his sudden enlightenment.

As for strength, once his six-foot-tall golden body is activated, even the abbot in his prime cannot break his defense. He also has other magical powers at his disposal. Although he cannot be said to be invincible in the world, he definitely has few rivals in the mortal world.

All these factors made Amber have no interest in the so-called abbot position of Jinshan Temple.

Becoming a monk is already a last resort. If you really want to become an abbot, how can you drink and eat meat?

Only a fool would do that.

After taking another comfortable sip, Amber lay on the eaves with her eyes closed, watching the clouds rolling in the sky, and she couldn't help feeling a sense of freedom in her heart.

Just as I looked, the clouds and the wind turned into a smiling Buddha holding a flower.

He was so frightened that he quickly opened his eyes wide and drove the illusion from his mind.

Bad luck! Really bad luck!

"Brother Fa Ming!"

At this moment, a mellow voice sounded from below the Zen room.

Amber turned around and was immediately even more disappointed.

I saw a young monk with a bald head, handsome eyebrows and upright features looking at me with a smile.

"Brother Fahai, I have no interest in the position of abbot. That position belongs to you!"

"Can everything in this world go as planned? Junior Brother Faming, you have a deep Buddhist nature, and your cultivation is even higher than mine. It is only natural that you become the abbot."

Fahai shook his head gently, his tone very gentle, like an older brother looking at his naughty and ignorant younger brother: "Besides, let's put aside the question of whether to be the abbot or not. The abbot has called on all the brothers to discuss matters together, and you should not be absent."

"Stop, stop, stop. Can't I go?"

Amber waved her hands repeatedly, jumped down from the roof, and landed in front of Fahai very lightly: "Stop talking, it's just a waste of time."

Fahai smiled and shook his head, with a hint of doting in his eyes.

"Fa Ming, among all the brothers, only you and I can take on big things, so don't be too lazy."

"I know. Let's go."

Amber followed him with a headache on her face.

It seemed like Fahai had long been accustomed to his attitude. Not only was he not angry at all, but he seemed a little happy instead.

The two left the meditation room and walked towards the main hall together.

On the way, Fahai suddenly thought of something and said, "Fakong and Fazhen are both very stupid. Junior Brother Faming should avoid associating with those ordinary people in the future, otherwise you will regret it when your Buddha nature is tarnished."

"Hmmmm."

Amber nodded perfunctorily.

Fahai is no longer the extremist who would destroy any demon he saw and shout "Great and Mighty Heavenly Dragon". He is now a very gentle person and is very nice to other monks in the temple.

But only the abbot, who was about to pass away, and Amber knew that this guy was an extremely proud person.

He divided the monks into two types: one was the Fakong Fazhen mentioned earlier and the monks of Jinshan Temple, and the other was Amber and the abbot.

The former is ignorant and needs to be approached with compassion, while the latter is his fellow traveler like Fahai.
