Chapter 997: You are not a person with an affinity for my Buddha

~4 min read 688 words

Although the Nine-Ringed Monk Staff could not be used as a weapon in Cheng Yaojin's hands, it was a good thing for a collection.

Besides, the Tang Huang Li Shimin now valued Buddhism, and as a favorite general of the Tang Huang Li Shimin, collecting a Nine-Ringed Monk Staff was also responding to the call of the Tang Huang Li Shimin.

"This Master, I wonder if you could part with the staff in your hand?"

Cheng Yaojin did not look down on them because the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han had transformed into a beggar.

After all, being able to hold such a heavy Nine-Ringed Monk Staff as if walking on flat ground, his strength could not be underestimated, which was why Cheng Yaojin had such an attitude.

"Five thousand taels of gold, and you can take the Nine-Ringed Monk Staff in my hand."

Facing Cheng Yaojin, one of the twenty-four meritorious officials of the Great Tang's Lingyan Pavilion, the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han increased the price by dozens of times again.

After all, unlike the previous foolish monk, Cheng Yaojin, as a founding meritorious official of the Great Tang, could easily produce five thousand taels of silver.

Therefore, in order not to let this Nine-Ringed Monk Staff fall into Cheng Yaojin's hands, the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han had to raise the price to make Cheng Yaojin retreat in the face of difficulty.

"What kind of thing is actually worth five thousand taels, and it's gold!?"

Cheng Yaojin, hearing the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han's quote, also gasped.

Even as a founding meritorious official, Cheng Yaojin would be severely hurt if he had to produce five thousand taels of gold.

Not to mention, just for an ordinary Nine-Ringed Monk Staff, Cheng Yaojin was naturally unwilling to pay such a high price.

"Then tell me, what exactly is it about this Nine-Ringed Monk Staff that makes it worth five thousand taels of gold? If you can't say it, hmph hmph!"

Cheng Yaojin clenched his fists, making a gesture to threaten the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han.

To this, the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han acted as if he hadn't seen it, but he still explained it to Cheng Yaojin.

After all, the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han now wanted to enter the Water and Land Assembly without using magic power, which could only be done through Cheng Yaojin's leadership.

Therefore, the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han had to use this matter to draw closer to Cheng Yaojin.

"This Nine-Ringed Monk Staff naturally has aspects that make it worth five thousand taels of gold."

The Dragon-Subduing Luo Han began to introduce the spiritual treasure refined by the two Western Sages, Jieyin and Zhunti, to Cheng Yaojin.

"I want to hear what exactly it is about this Nine-Ringed Monk Staff that makes it worth five thousand taels of gold!?"

Cheng Yaojin listened to the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han's determined tone, and the interest in his eyes grew even stronger.

"If you hold the Nine-Ringed Monk Staff of my Fomen, you will not enter the Netherworld after death, but will be directly led by my Buddha to the Western Pure Land."

"Or you will not suffer from curses, erosion by evil ghosts, and other unfavorable conditions. General Cheng Yaojin, tell me, are these benefits worth five thousand taels of gold!"

The Dragon-Subduing Luo Han said this while shaking the Nine-Ringed Monk Staff in his hand.

"If this is truly the case, five thousand taels of gold is completely worth it, but how can I believe that what you say is the truth?"

Cheng Yaojin, hearing what the Dragon-Subduing Luo Han said, also agreed very much, but the only thing that made Cheng Yaojin feel puzzled was, does the Nine-Ringed Monk Staff in the beggar's hand really have such ability?

"It seems, General Cheng Yaojin, that you are not a person with an affinity for my Buddha."

"If you were a person with an affinity for my Buddha, you would not question the Fomen magic tool. In that case, General Cheng Yaojin, if you were to hold this Nine-Ringed Monk Staff in your hand, not only would it not have the effect I mentioned..." ===== CHAPTER 999 =====
