Chapter 195 Moonlight Venerable

Moonlight Temple is dedicated to the Moonlight Bodhisattva and the Great Golden Peacock King.

After Zhou Yuan climbed up Wangyue Mountain and arrived at Yueguang Temple, he saw two distinct types of monks.

One type wears linen and white robes and is a meditating Zen monk; the other type wears yellow robes and is a warrior monk protecting the temple.

It is worth mentioning that the temple-protecting monks of Wolgwang Temple are relatively fierce, with fewer holding sticks and more holding swords tied to their waists.

The scabbards of those swords also have a square tassel flag, which is green, yellow, red and white in color and embroidered with the angry look of the Peacock King Ming.

Kong Jue did not lie. This temple has his traces everywhere, and he should have sent people to build it.

But there was one thing Zhou Yuan didn't understand. With Kong Jue's strength, why didn't he become the chief priest of the temple himself, and why should he honor the Moonlight Bodhisattva and live in the temple?

"Could it be that Kong Jue has some relationship with Moonlight Bodhisattva, or that he wants to use the name of Moonlight Bodhisattva to cover up his traces."

Zhou Yuan thought about it carefully, be it Moonlight Temple or Zhaohua Temple, using these names is indeed much better than using Jin Yaomingwang Temple.

As a result, others cannot determine which temples are related to Kong Jue using only the temple names.

“The donor neither worships nor observes the scenery, so why are you here?”

An old monk wearing a moon-white robe looked at the conspicuous Tianxin Purple Chen robe and knew that the person who came was by no means an ordinary person.

For this reason, two monks were recruited to accompany him, and they took the initiative to greet him and inquire.

"The master came just in time. I was just looking for someone to ask for directions when the master came. This is considered a fate.

King Zhaoling Kong Jue introduced me to the secret realm of the Moon Demon and asked the master to guide me. "

"Donor, don't be joking. King Yao Ming of Great Jin does not live in the mortal world, but is the protector of the pure heaven in the east. How can he recommend it to the benefactor?"

"Master is deceiving me. King Jin Yaoming suppressed the rebels a few days ago. Why can't he get acquainted with me?"

"I see, donor, come with me. The secret realm of the Moon Demon is behind the Moonlight Bodhisattva statue. Please don't be disrespectful to the Bodhisattva."

When the white-robed old monk saw that Zhou Yuan had told King Jin Yao Ming's common name and knew King Ming's whereabouts, he put down his intention to stop him.

"Don't worry, Master. King Ming has his own reasons for erecting the Moonlight Bodhisattva statue. How could I touch his face?"

"So that the donor may know that in the Oriental Pure Glaze World, Medicine Master Glazed Light Buddha has two accompanying Bodhisattvas.

One has the sun shining all over the place, and the other has the moonlight shining all over the place. They are named Sun Yao and Yue Jing.

The Moonlight Bodhisattva lives in the east and spreads all over the pure heaven, illuminating the boundless sky and taking in all the shadows. King Jin Yao Ming protects him. "

Seeing that Zhou Yuan did not understand the identity of Moonlight Bodhisattva, the old monk in white robe led the way and explained to Zhou Yuan.

In short, Moonlight Bodhisattva is the superior of King Jin Yao Ming. Even if he has friendship with King Jin Yao Ming, he cannot be disrespectful to the Bodhisattva.

With the old monk in white robe leading the way, Zhou Yuan successfully entered the backyard of the temple.

After walking a few steps in the courtyard, I met an acquaintance.

"Zen Master Mu De, why are you here? But you also want to take refuge in Yueguang Temple."

Master Huixing of Yunchi Shengguang Temple has changed his attire. Instead of the exquisite Qiyao Guangming cassock, he only has a linen moon-white robe.

"Master Hui Xing is well, I didn't expect Moonlight Temple to take you in."

Zhou Yuan admired Taoist Master Huixing's luck so much that he hid in Kong Jue's territory.

This is really in line with the saying, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

However, now that Kong Jue is the Lord of Jin Yao of Xingxiu Sect, Master Hui Xing and the others have found the organization by mistake.

"What Zen Master doesn't know is that our Yunchi Shengguang Temple has good relations with many star temples. Although we will not join in the murderous business, there is still no problem in taking them in for refuge."

When the white-robed old monk saw that Zhou Yuan and Master Huixing knew each other, he didn't say much. He just nodded slightly and motioned for Zhou Yuan to enter the hall together.

Zhou Yuan was a little curious about what Yueguang Temple was doing and couldn't help but ask.

"Why does Master dare to take in the monks of Shengguang Temple?"

"King Jin Yaoming was angry and killed, and Moonlight Bodhisattva showed his kindness. King Ming's palace could not accommodate the Shengguang monks, but there was no shortage of room for them in Moonlight Palace."

Well, I don’t know how many years it has been since Kong Jue returned to Moonlight Temple. Although the monks here remember his name, they respect Moonlight Bodhisattva.

It wasn't until Zhou Yuan entered the solemn and quiet Moonlight Bodhisattva Hall that he realized why the monks here respected Moonlight Bodhisattva instead of King Jin Yaoming.

The three-meter-tall Moonlight Bodhisattva statue is dressed in white, with its left hand as a fist, resting on the waist; its right hand holds a lotus flower with a half-moon on it, and the half-moon is transformed into three shapes.

What is important is not the soft light effect of the Bodhisattva statue, but the identity information on its head.

At this moment, Zhou Yuan was extremely confused. What did Kong Jue do to get such a statue?

Just based on what the white-robed old monk said before, we can know that Kong Jue, King Jin Yao Ming, cannot be the opponent of Moonlight Bodhisattva.

Even if the name of this statue is not Moonlight Bodhisattva but Moonlight Venerable, it still represents many things.

The Bodhisattva is a practitioner who has not yet become a Buddha, and the Venerable is an eminent monk and a great virtue; the Bodhisattva saves all living beings, and the Venerable teaches the Dharma to all living beings.

Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats have fruition status, and venerable persons also have lofty status.

"Master, I would like to donate gold and silver spiritual objects. Do you think I can ask this Bodhisattva statue to go?"

"Donor, don't do anything wrong. King Jin Yaoming is the protector of Moonlight Bodhisattva. He will start a fight when he finds out."

"What if King Jin Yaoming agrees?"

"My temple specializes in the Moonlight Bodhisattva mantra. Without the Bodhisattva statue, the mantra cannot be completed."

"I understand, the god of religion and the reason for seeking enlightenment cannot be borrowed."

Zhou Yuan was just shocked by the statue of Lord Moonlight and did not really want to take it for himself.

After all, the bosses of Taoyuan are all level 40. Who knows what level this Moonlight Venerable is?

If he really takes it for himself, and he suddenly revives one day to perform a compassionate salvation, Zhou Yuan estimates that he can't bear it.

Moreover, the connection between Moonlight Venerable and Kong Jue is too close. If anyone touches this Bodhisattva statue, it is estimated that Kong Jue will become furious.

"Master, this Bodhisattva statue is too precious. Has no one ever thought of it?"

"The Bodhisattva appeared here, the moonlight shines everywhere, and it is as immovable as a mountain. If you don't have the ability to move mountains and seas, how can you shake the Bodhisattva statue.

Except for Jin Yaoming Wang, he is the Bodhisattva guardian, who can move the Bodhisattva position and tour the universe on behalf of the Bodhisattva."

Zhou Yuan didn't believe the words of the white-robed old monk. He dared to bet that he could put the Bodhisattva statue into the inventory with one hand.

Facts proved that he was wrong. The moment he touched the Moonlight Venerable statue, the attribute panel gave feedback.

【Ding, unable to collect life units. 】

At this moment, Zhou Yuan's body was a little stiff. He couldn't believe that the Moonlight Venerable statue in front of him was actually alive.

"Donor, don't be rude to the Bodhisattva. The Moon Demon Secret Realm you want to go to is in the wooden door behind the Bodhisattva statue. Please follow me."

"How can I be disrespectful? I saw that the Bodhisattva statue was covered with dust, so I wiped it with my sleeve."

At this time, the Moonlight Venerable statue gave Zhou Yuan a very strange feeling. It was obviously in a similar state to the land god statue, so why was it a life unit.

"Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can receive incense. Could it be that these Moonlight monks have offered something to them?"
