chapter 13

Facing a pair of reverent eyes, Xuanxin calmly maintained an unfathomable demeanor of a divine monk.

Xuan Yuan at his side also understood at this time.

Looking at Xuanxin, his eyes were full of fanaticism.

That was a kind of unparalleled devotion … …

Now that he thought about it, he found that the abbot's every move had a deep meaning. Every word he just said was full of Buddhist principles.

Every word contained great wisdom.

Mahayana Buddhism, great compassion to save the world.

Buddha to save the world, in the end how to save the world, in the end who was the benefactor? Junior Brother Abbot Zhang was personally teaching him.

Just drinking a mouthful of the best and sweetest rice soup he had ever drunk in his life, all kinds of inconceivable magical changes occurred in his body.

It helped him to cultivate the Virgin Buddha Embracing Technique in one fell swoop, and also promoted a martial arts realm, his martial arts strength reaching the acquired seventh stage.

In the end, Junior Brother Abbot used an inconceivable divine ability to cure a seriously ill old man.

Although Xuan Yuan did not know how the abbot did it.

But he knew that the abbot was the real Buddha, the reincarnation of the real Buddha. Under his leadership, Shaolin would certainly rise.

"It seems that Little Junior Brother is wearing a kasaya and holding a Buddhist staff."

"And this alms bowl, they are my, Shaolin's, most precious treasures!"

Holding the purple gold alms bowl, Xuan Yuan at this moment could not help but tremble with excitement.

"Divine monk, this is my donation to Shaolin Temple, someday I will certainly go to Shaoshi Mountain to worship Buddha and burn incense."

"Master, I don't have much money, only this fruit, please accept it … …"

"Master is an enlightened senior monk, I also don't have much money … …"

"I only have flatbread, master you must also accept it."

… …

… …

The street suddenly became lively, more than twenty people surrounded Xuanxin and Xuan Yuan.

This was especially true for Xuan Xin, who was greatly sought after and respected.

Some took money, and some directly took food or fruit.

Fortunately, Xuan Yuan stood up and opened the sack, whether it was money or food, they were all collected.

"Amitabha."

After chanting the name of Buddha, Xuanxin took a step forward, and the crowd in front of him automatically made way for him.

Under the admiring and respectful gazes of the crowd.

Xuanxin left.

Xuan Yuan followed closely behind, carrying a big sack full of loot.

…

…

He found a teahouse, booked a private room, and ordered some food.

All of this was done by Xuan Yuan.

"Abbot, have some tea."

Xuan Yuan, who was busy serving them, handed over the freshly brewed tea.

Xuanxin ate the snacks and drank the tea brewed by Xuan Yuan.

In his mind, however, he was thinking about the development of Shaolin. Originally, Shaolin was just a small temple on Shaoshi Mountain that no one knew about.

However, after going down the mountain to beg for alms this time, the Shaolin Temple's reputation would spread throughout the Fallen Immortal Town in just a few days.

As long as he had a good reputation, he would be able to have a lot of followers in the future.

[Abbot Sign-In System]

Sign-In Value: 85200

Merit Value: 369

Opening the attribute panel, Xuanxin found that his sign-in value had increased by more than 40 points.

By increasing the Sect's incense, luck, faith, and accumulating merit, one's sign-in value could be increased.

Xuanxin guessed that the Shaolin Temple's reputation had spread to a certain extent.

If it became famous, then Shaolin's luck would also increase.

Therefore, his sign-in value had increased.

In addition, Xuanxin had also accumulated a lot of merit. With more than 300 merit points, Xuanxin could feel a little more at ease.

However, when he saw the merit points, Xuanxin thought of the old man with great luck.

Through his Golden Eye of Luck, Xuanxin saw that the old man had endless merit points and was about to condense into a nine-story Tower of Merit.

This was inconceivable. How could an ordinary old man accumulate such boundless merit?

"Nine stories …"

Xuanxin frowned. That old man had great luck, that was for sure.

But an ordinary person couldn't accumulate so much merit points no matter what, unless this old man was a great philanthropist who had lived nine lifetimes.

That immeasurable amount of merit points was accumulated over several lifetimes.

But no matter what, if he could convert this old man into Shaolin, Xuanxin would accept him as a third-generation disciple of Shaolin.

Then, Shaolin's luck would increase greatly, and he would receive a lot of sign-in values …

"Abbot, I just counted. We received a total of 36 silver taels as a donation."

"There are also more than ten kilograms of rice, more than thirty kilograms of noodles, eight cakes, and some fruits …"

Seeing so much money and supplies, Xuan Yuan, who was used to being poor in the Shaolin Temple, couldn't help but grin from ear to ear.

In his impression, the Shaolin Temple had never been as rich as it was today.

And it had never been as glorious as today, when it was respected by the people.

These were all things he didn't dare to think about before.

"Got it."

Xuanxin nodded expressionlessly. What he was thinking about was renovating the few temples in the Shaolin Temple.

This would cost at least a hundred taels of silver.

For example, building a road down the mountain and erecting a Buddha statue for the temple, it would cost at least a few thousand taels of silver.

What could these 36 taels of silver be used for?

It wouldn't even be enough to repair those dilapidated houses.

"Xuan Yuan, tell me about the biggest family in the Fallen Immortal Town."

Xuanxin went down the mountain this time to accumulate merit. Secondly, he wanted to understand karma and infinite healing. But his main goal was to get money to repair the temple.

Of course, he had to target the rich families in the town.

He had also accumulated a lot of merit points. He also understood the nine-ringed monk staff and the purple gold alms bowl, the so-called karma and infinite healing.

Now, he only had to get some money to repair the temple.

"Abbot, the Fallen Immortal Town is just a small town."

"The Xiao family is the biggest family. It is also the only martial arts family in the Fallen Immortal Town."

In this world where martial arts flourished, not everyone was talented in martial arts. Most of the people were just ordinary people.

Just like the Fallen Immortal Town, it was just a drop in the ocean in this world.

Here, ordinary people's daily lives were just oil, salt, and vinegar. They worked hard all day to make a living.

Real martial arts were very far away from them. It was like another world.

It was very difficult for people without martial arts talent to come into contact with them.

"Let's eat something. Then, we will go to the Xiao family."

Xuanxin's thinking was very simple. If he wanted to take advantage of the rich, he had to take advantage of them.

He didn't lack merit points now. He had memorized the Mahayana Buddhist Sutra. Plus, he had the super cool CG skill, Golden Light Illumination.

Although his martial arts strength wasn't very good.

However, it wouldn't be a problem to fool the small Xiao Family.

Xuanxin's dressing alone, the luxurious and noble robe, the majestic nine-ringed monk staff, and the purple gold alms bowl.

Just by relying on this card, as well as his temperament and bearing, he would be able to control the situation.
