Under One Person: With unparalleled comprehension, I become the Celestial Master!

"If you lose, can't I just run away? Who can stop me?"

Zhang Daoran: "..."

Zhang Daoran nodded, giving a thumbs-up, thinking to himself that this move was indeed brilliant!

That's so clever, they've completely lost all sense of shame!

Amitabha!

But at that moment, a Buddhist chant rang out!

Immediately afterwards, a tall, burly, bald monk carrying a staff arrived at the mountain gate.

Monk Baowen!

With a calm expression, he glanced at the master and apprentice, then opened the door!

"Despite the heavy snowfall, you two benefactors still came to worship Buddha. Your presence is truly admirable!"

"May I ask where you two come from?"

Upon hearing the question, the old master smiled and was about to say something when...

But Zhang Daoran slightly clasped his hands and said:

"This humble Taoist priest comes from the Celestial Master's Mansion on Longhu Mountain in the East, solely to seek the true scriptures here!"

Upon hearing this, Monk Baowen was taken aback.

After taking a closer look at the old Celestial Master and Zhang Daoran, a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes!

"May I ask if you are the Celestial Master?"

“Exactly!” The old Celestial Master smiled and said, his hands behind his back.

Monk Baowen was taken aback, then a hint of respect appeared in his eyes!

It was the first time he had ever seen a Celestial Master, and he was extremely shocked!

He thought to himself, "No wonder this old man in front of me gives me such a powerful feeling!"

So it turns out that after all that, it was a top-tier peak!

"This humble monk, Baowen, greets the Venerable Celestial Master. Please come inside!" said Monk Baowen.

"The master is entertaining guests. Please come in!"

The old master nodded, then followed behind with his hands behind his back.

Seeing this, Zhang Daoran followed.

It was faintly visible that the entire temple was deserted and the surrounding trees were covered with a lot of snow!

Bathed in the Buddha's light, it possessed a subtle sense of holiness.

The further you go in, the more you can feel the essence of Buddhism!

Soon, with the monk Baowen leading the way, the master and disciple arrived at the Mahavira Hall!

It is faintly visible that two figures are sitting cross-legged in front of the Buddha inside the hall.

The monks around him had solemn expressions and were chanting Buddhist scriptures.

The mighty and powerful force was as awe-inspiring as a resounding bell!

The old Celestial Master, who had arrived here, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise when he saw this scene.

He turned and looked back at Monk Baowen, saying:

"Whom is Master Jiekong trying to save?"

Upon hearing the question, a hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the monk Baowen!

He sighed, unable to speak of his unspeakable troubles, and shook his head slightly.

This made Zhang Daoran's eyes light up with curiosity!

As the chanting of Buddhist scriptures continued, the surrounding snow began to melt!

An invisible aura suddenly emanated from these monks!

Even Zhang Daoran, who was outside the hall, clearly felt calmer!

It's as if the Buddhist scriptures before me can cleanse the soul and bring enlightenment!

Amitabha!

Soon, as a deep Buddhist chant rang out, the chanting of Buddhist scriptures subsided.

The monk Jiekong, dressed in the abbot's robe, sighed, glanced at his good-for-nothing disciple in front of him, and a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes!

He looked up at the visitors not far away, then got up and walked outside!

"Old Celestial Master, you've come from afar. I, Jiekong, have failed to greet you properly!"

Upon hearing the question, the old master couldn't help but smile slightly.

Looking at the monk Jiekong, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, he then teased:

"Old monk, it's been a long time! You've gotten even fatter!"

"Tell me the truth, is it that Buddha resides in your heart, while wine and meat pass through your intestines?"

Upon hearing this, the monk Jiekong couldn't help but laugh heartily.

He glanced at the old Celestial Master before him and Zhang Daoran, and said:

"Old Celestial Master, you jest. May I ask what brings you to Lingyin Temple this time?"

The old celestial master nodded and then recounted his experience of going down the mountain for training.

After he finished speaking, he looked around Lingyin Temple and smiled, saying:

"Old monk, my disciple and I have come all this way, you can't refuse us, can you?"

"Let us stay here for a few days and have a good exchange and discussion with you!"

Monk Jiekong nodded slightly, his kind face full of smiles!

He glanced at Zhang Daoran indifferently and said:

"Young Celestial Master, it seems that he, like the old Celestial Master back then, is also practicing the path of cultivation in the world!"

Upon hearing this, the old master couldn't help but laugh.

He nodded, hands behind his back, then patted his stomach and said:

"I'm hungry! My stomach is growling, get me two bowls of vegetarian rice! Hahaha!"

Monk Jiekong nodded and then followed him forward.

Just as Zhang Daoran, who was following behind, was about to follow, a figure in the main hall suddenly caught his attention!

It is vaguely visible that this person is not wearing monk's robes, but rather a jacket and jeans!

He had a buzz cut, regular facial features, and wore glasses.

Coupled with those deep, melancholy eyes, Zhang Daoran was taken aback!

Xiao Zizai!

Feeling incredulous, he paused, wondering why this person was here.

Logically speaking, shouldn't he be working as a temporary worker during this period?

Just then, Xiao Zizai also looked over!

Their eyes met, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in their eyes!

A moment later, in the Zen temple.

The old Celestial Master looked at the vegetarian meal on the table, his eyes full of smiles.

Just as they were about to start eating, they saw Zhang Daoran already wolfing down his food!

In no time at all, he finished a bowl of vegetarian food!

He smiled, still feeling unsatisfied, wiped his mouth, and said:

"Can I have another bowl? I'm so hungry!"

"No! Three more bowls, three bowls each! Hehe!"

Old Master: "..."

Monk Jiekong: "..."

The two people, stunned by what they saw, were filled with embarrassment!

The old Celestial Master, in particular, wished he could find a place to disappear into!

He glanced at the rebellious disciple and said with a smile:

"I'm sorry you had to see this. He's only eight years old and doesn't know any better!"

Monk Jiekong nodded, glanced at Zhang Daoran, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

He coughed lightly, seemingly unconcerned, and then started chatting casually.
