Chapter 527 Second Uncle, I'm here!
Chapter 527 Second Uncle, I'm here!
It seems that some changes have indeed occurred during the time they were away from the Sealed Heaven Continent.
"Benefactor Lin, you've arrived..."
Just as Lin Que was about to chat with Jing Ning, an old monk slowly walked out of Lotus Temple, causing a group of monks coming and going to make way for him. It was Abbot Huixuan of Lotus Temple.
"It's been a long time, Abbot Huixuan." Lin Que greeted him with a smile, but quickly became puzzled: "Judging from your tone, Abbot, did you know I was coming?"
Upon hearing this, Huixuan stroked his snow-white beard and smiled, "No, it was my senior brother who told me."
"Just half an hour ago, my senior brother said that a distinguished guest was coming, but I didn't expect it to be Benefactor Lin."
"I just wonder what brings Benefactor Lin here this time?"
Abbot Huixuan's senior brother...
Lin Que's eyes lit up immediately!
Without hesitation, he immediately pulled Wangchen forward and embraced Abbot Huixuan, leaving all the monks around him dumbfounded!
"Hehe!" Lin Que chuckled and said, "Something's up, something's up!"
"We've come to see the abbot, your senior brother!"
"Come on, let's go inside and talk!"
"It would be best if I could personally chat with your senior brother, the abbot, hehehe!"
"In that case, please come in with me, Benefactor Lin." Abbot Huixuan was not offended by Lin Que's actions. Instead, he smiled and invited Lin Que and Wang Chen to go to Lotus Temple together.
This scene left the surrounding monks even more bewildered!
The way Lin Que was embracing Abbess Huixuan was simply unbelievable!
"I have to go in now!" Lin Que turned around and waved to the little nun Jingning, who was already wide-eyed and looking adorable. "I'll visit your temple again when I have time."
After entering Lotus Temple, Lin Que and Wang Chen followed Abbot Huixuan through the temple's long corridor and headed straight to the back of the temple, arriving at a courtyard that the two had never been to before.
Unlike the hustle and bustle outside, this courtyard, though also within the Lotus Temple, was exceptionally tranquil, bringing a sense of peace and comfort.
Moreover, there is a thousand-year-old apricot tree in the courtyard, and the golden apricot leaves that fall from the tree from time to time have painted the ground of the courtyard with a layer of autumn colors.
However, while Lin Que and Wang Chen were still sighing, an old figure appeared on a stone platform and bench in the courtyard.
The figure appeared silently, without the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy, causing Lin Que to unconsciously rub his eyes.
"Senior brother, this must be the distinguished guest you mentioned." Hui Xuan led Lin Que and Wang Chen forward and said to the old figure.
Upon hearing this, the aged figure slowly turned around, revealing a pair of calm, unwavering eyes beneath his graying temples.
However, it was precisely these eyes that made Lin Que feel somewhat uneasy, as if he were about to be seen through at any moment. But this feeling disappeared in an instant, clearly due to the old monk.
"Please sit down, benefactor." The old monk raised his hand and gestured for Lin Que and Wang Chen to sit down. He then continued, "My Dharma name is Huian, and I am Huixuan's senior brother."
"May I ask what brings you here today, benefactor?"
Seeing this, Abbot Huixuan originally wanted to leave to give them space to talk, but Huian kept him there and gestured for him to sit down and listen.
Hearing the other party's direct question, Lin Que naturally did not choose to delay, but said sincerely, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lin Que. As for why I came to Lotus Temple this time..."
"I want to invite a Tribulation Realm expert from Lotus Temple to accompany me on this trip."
Upon hearing this, Hui'an did not speak, but instead raised his hand and waved it, and four cups of steaming hot tea appeared out of thin air on the stone platform in front of each of them.
Hui'an picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said in a calm yet peaceful tone, "Benefactor Lin, what is the reason for this?"
His eyes remained calm and still, as if nothing could stir any emotion within him.
Lin Que also picked up his teacup, took a sip, and uttered a single sentence...
"For the sake of fifty years from now..."
In an instant!
In Hui'an's calm eyes, the pupils suddenly widened, and a glint of light flashed across them!
The tranquility of the past is gone forever.
Even Huixuan, who was sitting and listening nearby, became interested and waited for Lin Que to continue his narration. Both of them knew that Lin Que had not finished speaking.
As expected, after Lin Que finished his tea in one gulp, he slowly began to tell them about the Illusionary Demon Continent...
As time passed, the expressions of the two old monks gradually changed from initial curiosity to complete astonishment!
a long time......
The two old monks, Hui'an and Huixuan, gradually recovered from their shock and looked at Lin Que with complicated expressions.
Hui'an spoke up, "Benefactor Lin, you want this humble monk to accompany you on a trip to the Illusionary Demon Continent, right?"
“That’s right!” Lin Que nodded and said, “To prevent any major mistakes, the more powerful people like you, senior, the better.”
"Someone from the Immortal Pavilion has also extended an invitation."
"Since that's the case, may I have a little time to consider this?" After pondering for a moment, Huian said, "How about this, Benefactor Lin, please tell me your departure time. If there are no other important matters at that time, I will accept your invitation and accompany you on the trip!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que immediately burst into laughter!
Although Huian's meaning still needs to be considered, Lin Que clearly believes that it has succeeded.
As he had guessed, it was relatively easy to invite the powerful figures of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom. After all, it concerned the future fifty years from now, and the Buddhist sect was a powerful force dedicated to the teachings of all sentient beings, so it was difficult for them to refuse.
"Of course, no problem!" Lin Que smiled and agreed on a departure time with Hui'an. They would meet at Frost Moon Ice Valley.
After he finished speaking, Lin Que suddenly remembered what the little nun Jingning had said to him outside the Lotus Temple.
With the emergence of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom and the Immortal Pavilion, their presence has become felt across the Sealed Heaven Continent.
If we want to completely integrate the power of the Sealed Heaven Continent, wouldn't that mean...?
Upon realizing this, a glint of light flashed in Lin Que's eyes, and a plan immediately formed in his mind!
Without hesitation, he immediately smiled happily at Hui'an and Huixuan and said, "By the way, seniors, I have heard that the Lotus Buddha Kingdom and the Immortal Pavilion have already emerged and entered the Sealed Heaven Continent to establish their religions."
"Well, I was once a member of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom, and I have a plan I'd like to discuss with you two seniors."
"Rest assured, seniors!"
"It's all for the greater good of humanity!"
......
They talked for an unknown amount of time until it gradually got dark, at which point Lin Que walked out of the Lotus Temple alone, while Wang Chen did not follow him out.
It wasn't that Lin Que didn't want to take him along, but Wang Chen was inexplicably left behind by Hui An, and Lin Que didn't know the specific reason.
Hui'an only told him that he would bring Wangchen with him when they met up.
Moreover, at the time, Lin Que didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that the "distinguished guest" that Hui'an mentioned was not him, but Wang Chen.
But it's strange that Hui'an didn't keep Wangchen when he came to Lotus Temple alone before!
Could it be that Wang Chen was once a "distinguished guest"?
Lin Que shook his head, unable to understand.
never mind!
Then I might as well stop thinking about it.
After leaving Lotus Temple, Lin Que immediately took to the air and sped towards the direction of Sealed Heaven Continent.
Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to stay here any longer. As for the donation box... it seems that it can only be done next time, because Lin Que has a very important thing to do now.
"Hehe~!"
"Second Uncle, I'm here!!!"
