Inside Daleiyin Temple, Tathagata sits cross-legged on a lotus throne in the middle.
On the left and right sides are Bodhisattvas, Arhats, Bhikkhus, etc., which is very impressive.
Not long ago, the clone of Guanyin self-destructed. The other angry Guanyin had just reported Tang Sanzang's evil deeds to Tathagata.
"Buddha, please hurry up and rescue Jin Maoyu and punish that bastard Tang Sanzang."
"Don't worry, the golden retriever has been rescued. They will be here soon."
His consciousness swept out, and after a moment Tathagata said with a smile.
Guanyin was stunned and curious. Who saved him?
Not long after, King Kong from outside ran in and reported that Samantabhadra wanted to see him.
Tathagata naturally smiled and let him in, and soon Samantabhadra and Jin Maohuang entered the hall.
"Puxian, why did you come back and learn magical powers from that bookstore?"
Looking at Samantabhadra expectantly, Tathagata did not ask about Jin Maohuan.
Hearing this, Samantabhadra pretended to be regretful and shook his head: "Back to the Buddha, no, the disciple came back with good news to report."
"Oh, what's the good news?"
Tathagata's eyes suddenly lit up and he said excitedly.
Puxian replied: "I begged the shopkeeper, and he agreed to let me, a Buddhist, in."
"Really? Hahaha, that's great. Samantabhadra, you have experienced great achievements. This Buddha must reward you well. Tell me, what treasure do you want?"
The ecstatic Tathagata jumped down from the lotus platform regardless of his image, paced back and forth, smiling from ear to ear.
In the bookstore, Yang Xiao was speechless. Is there any need to be so excited?
Isn't it just to come to the bookstore? Besides, Tathagata, you know what this bookstore has, so why are you so excited?
By the way, the excited Tathagata was a little cute at this moment. Yang Xiao suddenly thought, should Tathagata and Buddhist people come to the bookstore in large numbers?
Not long after the idea came to mind, Yang Xiao quickly shook it out of his mind, this is not possible.
He now remembered how Tathagata and his friends treated Ksitigarbha, controlled and tortured Kong Xuan, and even came to bombard his bookstore.
How could we forget what he had done just because he saw the excited Tathagata looking a little cute? This was absolutely not allowed.
After doing this, how he explained to Ksitigarbha and Kong Xuan would only make everyone who came to the bookstore disappointed with him as the owner.
"Buddha, although the shop owner agreed, I feel that he agreed very reluctantly. He may not be allowed in when the time comes. My suggestion is to find some people to test the shop owner first."
"After contacting the shop owner, I found that he is very caring and likes small animals, such as Guanyin's mount Golden Retriever, which is very good."
In the Great Leiyin Temple, looking at the excited Tathagata, Puxian twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and continued.
I just don’t know what the Buddha would think if he knew that the shop owner didn’t really want his Buddhist people to go there.
"Are you agreeing reluctantly? How can that be unreasonable? This Buddha... Huh, I think this Buddha is too impatient to eat hot tofu. If you want to improve the shop owner's impression of me as a Buddhist, you must take your time."
"Puxian, what you said is very good. Doesn't this shop owner like small animals? Let's send some small animals to try it first to see his attitude."
Tathagata was stunned for a moment and became furious, but then he thought of something, took several deep breaths, and forced himself to calm down.
His eyes glanced at the golden-haired animal that Pu Xian had mentioned, and Tathagata agreed with Pu Xian's proposal.
Jin Maoyu, who was standing next to Puxian, had a confused look on his face. Even if I were to be counted as a demon king, what kind of little animal could I be?
"Let's do this, Guanyin, let your golden-haired tiger, the black bear guarding the mountain, and the yellow-haired marten brought back by Lingji go."
After pondering for a moment, Tathagata quickly came up with an idea.
Guanyin nodded: "Yes, Buddha."
In the bookstore, Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment, with a smile on his lips.
Yes, yes, these three guys are all monsters on the way to seek Buddhist scriptures. Unexpectedly, Tathagata actually planned to send them to him together.
If you can instigate rebellion, hehe, Tathagata will never die without crying.
When the time comes, it seems very good to use these guys to deceive Buddhism.
The black bear mentioned by Tathagata is the Black Wind Mountain, the black bear spirit who stole Tang Sanzang's cassock and was finally taken by Guanyin to serve as the guardian of the mountain.
The yellow-haired marten is the Yellow Wind King of the Yellow Wind Cave, the monster who knows the divine wind of Samadhi.
Among the monsters, the strength of the two is pretty good, especially King Huang Feng, whose Samadhi Kamikaze is definitely one of a kind.
"Buddha, I have another question."
At this moment, Samantabhadra in Daleiyin Temple said again.
Tathagata looked over and said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Back to Buddha, although the store owner lets people enter the bookstore, he does not let people read the secret books of magical powers and techniques for free in the bookstore."
"The shopkeeper will charge a certain fee every day, and it is worth a lot of money. I would like to remind you."
Puxian answered with a smile, and then said: "Although I can substitute, I have been in the bookstore for many days, and my money is already a little shy."
Listening to Pu Xian's words in the water mirror, Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment and shook his head in amusement.
Good guy, Samantabhadra actually learned how to deceive people. Is he already good at it, or was he forced out by coming to the bookstore?
With Samantabhadra's wealth, he can read books for a long time. This move is obviously to get more treasures and buy magic weapons and other things in the bookstore!
"So that's what happened. If I had told you earlier, if you were doing things for my Buddhist sect, I would have asked you to pay for it out of your own pocket."
"Kasyapa, go to the treasure house and bring out two sumeru bags of heavenly materials and earthly treasures for Samantabhadra."
Tathagata waved generously, without even thinking about making arrangements.
Puxian smiled and thanked him, saying that he must understand things well and live up to the Tathagata's expectations.
The happy Tathagata asked about the fee. Samantabhadra exaggerated and told Tathagata. Anyway, he knew that Tathagata couldn't get in.
"No wonder, that boy came to our Great Leiyin Temple and defrauded me of so many treasures. That's not right. He is the shop owner. Why does he want the treasures?"
After understanding the situation, Tathagata thought of something and his eyes flashed slightly.
Puxian replied: "I heard from the shop owner that he also needs to use treasures to buy things in the bookstore, and he doesn't just take them whenever he wants."
"I see. I, the Buddha, felt strange early on. How could that boy be the master of such a magical place with such poor strength? It turns out he is just a servant."
The suddenly enlightened Tathagata seemed to be talking to himself and conversing with Samantabhadra.
When Yang Xiao in the bookstore heard this, his face turned black and he was so angry that he cursed.
"Dog Tathagata, you are the servant. I am the shopkeeper and the host. Even you, an old man like me, don't understand."
Yang Xiao was huffing and felt very unhappy.
Soon, Kassapa came back and handed the two Sumeru bags to Samantabhadra.
Yang Xiao had seen this kind of Sumeru bag before when he was brought to Daleiyin Temple by Tathagata.
At that time, more than ten Xumi bags were filled with more than half of the Leiyin Temple, worth more than 38 million book coins.
Counting these two together, there are still seven to eight million.
What's more, the things inside may not be the same as the things in the Xumi bag given to him, and maybe the value will be higher.
After all, it is naturally more than seven or eight million.
Samantabhadra took the things and waited for a while. When Guanyin brought the black bear, he took the three demons all the way to the bookstore.
