Creation Color Master

Chapter 545: Promise to Take Action

Abbot Jianzhen clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name.

With a pair of kind eyes and a hint of pleading, he slowly asked Yao Guangxiao, "Master, I wonder if you will agree to my request?"

Yao Guangxiao pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Since the abbot has repeatedly urged me, it would be inhumane if I don't agree. I will agree."

"But I have three requests, and I hope the abbot will agree to them."

Seeing that Yao Guangxiao finally gave in, a smile appeared on Abbot Zhen's face and his voice became even more cheerful.

"Master, please tell me what you want. As long as I can obtain the inheritance left by my master and my Qingzhao Temple retains a trace of incense, I can agree to anything."

Yao Guangxiao nodded slowly and stated his request directly.

"Abbot, my first request is that when my colleagues and I undergo the test of inheritance, you must summon all the monks in the temple to be present, even the menial disciples."

Jianzhen immediately understood what Yao Guangxiao was thinking. Taking the treasure in public would only allow him to be supervised by all members of the temple and prove his innocence.

Moreover, Abbot Jianzhen also knew clearly that when they were accepting the test, they were also accompanied by supreme opportunities. If someone could gain enlightenment from it, Qingzhao Temple would have more foundation, which would be a hundred benefits to Qingzhao Temple and would not cause any harm.

He agreed immediately.

Seeing that he agreed, Yao Guangxiao then made his second request.

"Abbot, my second request is that you need to convince all the elders and fellow disciples in the temple. I don't want what happened today to happen again."

Upon hearing this, Master Jianzhen was very ashamed and said, "This matter was caused by my negligence. I will explain it to all my fellow disciples later. This matter will not happen again."

Seeing the abbot's promise, Yao Guangxiao nodded happily and then made his last request.

"This time, I and my colleagues volunteered to comprehend and break the formation. If we are lucky enough to pass the test, we will not take any of the treasures stored by our ancestors. Everyone present will witness it."

Abbot Jianzhen was slightly stunned when he heard this. He never thought that Yao Guangxiao would not take a penny and would not ask for any reward at all.

Seeing that Zhen hadn't come back to his senses for a long time, Yao Guangxiao immediately drove him away and said, "I'm afraid the abbot won't be able to sleep well tonight. Whether it's the mysterious death of the little monk or fulfilling Yao Guangxiao's request, it will be extremely difficult."

"If you have nothing else to do, Abbot, go and take care of your own business. I think your fellow apprentices are waiting for you."

Looking at the people who were ordered to leave, Jianzhen opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into a sigh, and he bowed solemnly to Yao Guangxiao and others, then left the room.

It was late at night and a cloud blocked the bright moon. The guest room returned to its former tranquility.

Now that everyone in the room is their own, Li Yinzhi asked Yao Guangxiao with some confusion.

"Daoyan, I don't believe you don't know that the inheritance of Qingzhao Temple is a hot taro. Why did you agree to Abbot Jianzhen?"

Yao Guangxiao smiled slightly and said, "Since we entered Qingzhao Temple, everything that has happened is like a tangled thread. We have no clue at all. The big hand in the dark is even more secretive."

"If you want to break the situation, you have to get involved yourself."

At this time, Shi Zuqin said, "Daoyan, this matter has nothing to do with us. Why don't we take this opportunity to leave here?"

Yao Guangxiao shook his head and said, "It's not that easy. The death of that little monk is an example. Do you think they will let us go?"

"Now, joining the game is the best solution."

"Everyone, no matter what happens next, just follow my instructions."

"There is one more thing, that is, you must ensure the safety of the lord during this period."

Chu Mo watched how Yao Guangxiao dealt with everything, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Li Yinzhi, Shi Zuqin and others might be indeed extraordinary in their Buddhist practice, and might be on par with Yao Guangxiao's Buddhism, but when it comes to conspiracies and tricks, they still have to rely on Yao Guangxiao alone.

Time flies, and it is already three days later.

During this period, Chu Mo and others stayed in the guest rooms of the Buddhist temple for various reasons and did not go out.

Fortunately, Abbot Jianzhen arranged someone to deliver meals.

During this period, Elder Jianzhen also came once and brought the news that he had persuaded his fellow disciples. He also told Yao Guangxiao and others to make preparations in advance and strive for success.

While everyone was chatting, Chu Mo also asked whether the cause of the little monk's death could be found out.

Abbot Jianzhen just glanced at Chu Mo indifferently, thinking that the reason why Chu Mo was so concerned was related to the previous injustice he suffered, so he didn't think much about it.

The answer he gave was that the death of the little monk was too strange. Even if he used his supernatural powers to investigate the cause of death, he could not find out anything. It seemed like a wrongful case.

Chu Mo saw everything and found that Abbot Jianzhen didn't care about this matter. Chu Mo just said it was human nature. After all, the death of a little monk could not compare with the future fate of Qingzhao Temple.

Even though Abbot Jianzhen has profound Buddhist knowledge, he is not a saint. Since he has emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, it is normal for him to have selfish desires.

The sun rises, clouds rise from the mountains, and even the Buddhist temple is shrouded in golden light.

Today is the day we have agreed to meet with Abbot Jianzhen to comprehend the clues of inheritance, and Yao Guangxiao and others have already made preparations.

At this time, the sound of the temple door being pushed open was heard. Chu Mo looked outside through the window and saw Abbot Jianzhen coming with the four elders Jianzhi, Jianhui, Jiankong and Jianling.

Five people came together, Yao Guangxiao and others went out to greet them, and everyone stood in the courtyard.

After the greetings, Abbot Jianzhen went straight to the point, obviously impatient.

"Greetings to Master Daoyan and Master Yinzhi. I wonder how the masters are preparing. How about we go to the pagoda now?"

Yao Guangxiao gave Li Yinzhi a cryptic look, then nodded and said, "Then we will give it a try, but whether it will succeed is still unknown. The abbot must not hold too high hopes."

At this time, Jianhui in the team was about to step forward to speak, but was stopped by Jianzhi who was standing beside him and shook his head at him seriously.

In fact, everyone originally thought that Chu Mo and others came for the inheritance of their Qingzhao Temple, so they had a hint of hostility towards Chu Mo and others.

But when they learned of the request made by Yao Guangxiao, they all felt a little guilty. Now when they met, there was a hint of gratitude in the eyes of several elders when they looked at Chu Mo and others.

Of course, there was only one exception. Chu Mo hid behind everyone and secretly observed and found that Elder Jian Hui still had strong hostility towards them.

Because no matter what, they are all part of Qingzhao Temple and they all hope that Qingzhao Temple will get better.

Return to the days when believers were everywhere and incense was prosperous.
