Chapter 541

~4 min read 697 words

Li Er knew about this, but didn't care.

He thought it was built by the believers who offered incense.

But now, after Qin Mu's guidance.

Li Er finally realized the truth.

The monks in these temples didn't truly save all living beings; they also like gold and silver jewelry!

It's just that these hypocritical people used another set of rhetoric.

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

Fine beads of sweat seeped from Master Xuanzang's forehead, and he shook his head non-stop, trying his best to deny everything he heard.

He must deny it!

If he didn't deny it, it would mean that the theory he had painstakingly studied for so many years would collapse completely.

So many days and nights of effort would all turn into bubbles.

No matter who it is, they certainly wouldn't be able to accept it.

"Master Master Xuanzang, now I can state the question I want to ask." Qin Mu didn't care about Master Xuanzang's excited emotions and asked calmly: "Since you are so certain that Buddhism can guide people toward happiness, then I would like to ask, is the so-called guidance exploiting the people to praise your Buddha?"

A light sentence, like a sharp knife, stabbed fiercely into Master Xuanzang's heart, stabbing him until he was covered in blood and in unbearable pain.

Master Xuanzang's expression became worse and worse, and his face became paler and paler...

Li Er and Fang Fang Xuanling on the side both had a trace of sympathy in their eyes.

Understand!

Understand too well!

This kind of mood of Master Xuanzang has happened to them countless times.

At this very moment.

When Li Er saw another person being driven almost crazy by Qin Mu, he finally understood what kind of experience this was.

"This... No! I absolutely don't believe it! I want to go to the temple and ask the abbot!"

Master Xuanzang shook his head stubbornly and ran wildly toward Jin Shan Temple.

Watching his stumbling back, the expressions of the group were quite complex.

"Sigh! He is also a pitiful person! Being brainwashed by the so-called Buddhism so severely, his life is probably over."

Empress Empress Zhangsun said with pity.

After all, as the Great Tang Empress, she truly cares for every common person.

It's just that, sometimes this care also needs to be selective.

If someone must die, Empress Empress Zhangsun would never stop it.

"He deserves it!" Princess Changle pouted her small mouth and said indignantly: "Who told him to be so self-righteous, thinking he is some great figure, actually daring to preach in front of brother-in-law!"

In this little girl's heart, Qin Mu is the person she admires the most.

Princess Changle dislikes anyone who dares to show off in front of Qin Mu, even if it is this eminent monk.

"I don't think things are that simple! Your Majesty, don't you want to go to Jin Shan Temple and watch the excitement?"

Li Er looked at Master Xuanzang's departing back, and he indeed had another plan in his heart.

This Jin Shan Temple will never be as simple as it looks.

As the number one temple in the Great Tang capital, the number of monks in Jin Shan Temple reaches tens of thousands!

The number of believers is countless.

Many high-ranking officials or wealthy young ladies in Changancheng often come to Jin Shan Temple to offer incense and pray for the safety of their families.

The thing they lack the least is money.

Sometimes, in order to express their sincerity, they even send out hundreds of taels of silver at a time.

Not to mention others.

Even Li Er and Empress Empress Zhangsun have come to Jin Shan Temple to pray for blessings.

Coupled with these ten thousand acres of fertile land, the income of this one Jin Shan Temple alone is already immeasurable.

Li Er really wants to see with his own eyes.

What kind of tricks there are in this Jin Shan Temple.

"Alright, anyway, since we are here, we might as well treat it as coming to enjoy the scenery."

Qin Mu felt that what Li Er said made some sense.

He had long been eyeing Jin Shan Temple.
