Hanba Descends, A Thousand Miles of Bare Land
"It seems that the Great Cyclic Pellet has been consumed.”
"Xuchen's future is boundless. He has become a first-rate expert at such a young age.”
Many monks in the Dao College were already familiar with Xu Chen. When they saw Xu Chen's aura, they were a little envious. Just as they said, to become a first-rate expert at such a young age, his future was limitless.
However, they didn't know that Xu Chen didn't eat the Recover Pill, nor did they know Xu Chen's true level.
Otherwise, his jaw would definitely drop.
"Xuchen."
Suddenly, a voice came from the Dao Verification College. It sounded very familiar. In the next second, Xu Chen knew who it was. He retracted his aura and turned around.
The other monks, including Xu Jing, quickly stood still and put their palms together before bowing.
"Abbot Xuan Ci."
"Greetings, Abbot Xuan Ci."
Xuan Ci responded to them with a smile. His kasaya sparkled as he walked in front of Xu Chen, followed by the old monk, the head monk of the Dao College. Unlike Xuan Ci, he looked like he had lost his parents. His brows were tightly knitted as if he was about to cry at any moment.
"Abbot." Xu Chen bowed.
"Xuchen, you don't know how to weigh the consequences. If you take the Great Cyclic Pellet alone without anyone to protect you, it will be very dangerous, especially at your age.”Xuan Ci feigned anger as she rebuked.
What he said was the truth. Although his tone was blaming, there was also concern.
Protectors were Protectors.
Most importantly, I didn't eat the Recover Pill.
Xu Chen thought, but he couldn't say it out loud. He just smiled and said,"Abbot is right."
Xuan Ci reached out to stroke his smooth head and said,"You can't do such a dangerous thing next time.”Xu Chen nodded. Then, Xuan Ci said a few more words to the Dao Verification Court's president before leaving together.
Xu Jing also went to do her homework.
"A thousand miles of bare land has been decided."
"Unrewarded Demon!"
"Merciful and good…"
Looking at the two old monks in kasayas walking away with seemingly slow but actually fast steps, Xu Chen heard some words floating in the wind and could not help but fall into deep thought.
"It seems to be talking about monsters…?？”
"Looks like something big has happened recently.”
Xu Chen murmured to himself.
He didn't think too much about it.
After the abbot and the head of the Dao Verification Court disappeared at the end of the road, he withdrew his gaze and walked toward the courtyard.
His progress in learning Buddhism was very fast. He believed that after a while, he would be able to debate scriptures with these old monks in the Dao Verification Institute. Although it was an illusion, his Buddhist studies had indeed reached a certain level. Therefore, he wanted to speed up his learning and strive to reach his goal as soon as possible.
Time passed slowly.
In the blink of an eye, the golden crow sank to the west, and multicolored light filled the sky.
Half a day passed. Xu Chen left the Dao College and returned to his residence in the Prajna Hall.
"Senior Huiren, did you hear what those people from Arhat Hall said just now? Something big has happened!"
"Oh? I didn't hear it. What's wrong?”
"Let me tell you. Recently, there have been many refugees from Shaoshi Mountain. I heard that Hanba has descended from Yuezhou! A thousand miles of barren land, causing the commoners to have no harvest! The local people had all fled!”
"Hanba? There's such a thing?"
"Isn't that so? And our Abbot, after discussing with the many First Elders, decided to open the granary to give porridge to those refugees. This is a great deed."
"Amitabha. Good, good."
In the corridor, Xu Chen heard a few monks discussing something.
After listening carefully and connecting it with some of the information he had heard at the entrance of the Dao Verification Court in the morning, he finally understood the cause and effect. After understanding, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Many refugees?"
"This can definitely earn merit points!”
"This is a good opportunity. I can't miss it."
After understanding the whole story, Xu Chen made up his mind.
The peak period for the monks in Shaolin Temple to cultivate Eighteen Arhat Fists had passed, and his merit points were pitifully low. He had to think of other ways to earn merit points.
This time, a large number of refugees had swarmed to the foot of Shaoshi Mountain. This was a good opportunity!
Soon, Xu Chen found out about the matter of going down the mountain to give out porridge.
Opening the granary to distribute porridge, Shaolin Temple was prepared to send many monks from the hall down the mountain to do this. The number of people was at least about a thousand. As for those who were not selected, they could also voluntarily register.
"They will definitely choose young and strong monks and martial monks. I'm still young, so they definitely won't choose me. Looks like I'll have to register myself." Xu Chen thought to himself.
Xu Chen left the Prajna Hall and walked toward the Arhat Hall before it got dark.
It was said that Arhat Hall had dispatched the most people this time, so the registration address was also at Arhat Hall.
The setting sun was big and round.
A few crows with ear-piercing cries flew across the dusky yellow sky. Xu Chen stepped through the gate of Arhat Hall and came to the field. The incense burner in the center was burning, and a faint smell assaulted him.
"So many people."
Xu Chen glanced at the field and found many monks and martial artists gathered in a circle. They were all talking noisily, and there were many people from the Chores Yard among them. Xu Chen also saw a familiar figure.
