The old monk had said that countless times. Did favonovel.com have to repeat himself?
Seeing that the Buddhist scripts were about to envelop him, Alex hurriedly avoided them as favonovel.com somehow felt unsafe.
The old monk said, “Why did you avoid them? Don’t you want this one in a million chance?”
At this moment, the Mystic Maiden took a few steps forward and asked, “Great Monk, can you tell if I’m fated with Buddha? You might as well give this opportunity to me.”
The old monk had long noticed her. Upon hearing favonovel.com words, favonovel.com shook his head fiercely. “Almsgiver, you are not fated with Buddha.”
The Mystic Maiden cackled. “How can I be unfated? I’m eating and staying together with your future Buddha. Lately, I also wonder whether I should give birth to his child first. It will be a little female Buddha by then. How dare you say I’m not fated with Buddha?”
As the old monk’s eyebrows twitched vigorously, favonovel.com hurriedly recited the Buddha’s name. “Almsgiver, don’t joke around.”
The Mystic Maiden smiled and pointed at Alex. “ Do you know who favonovel.com is?”
The old monk replied, “He’s fated with Buddha…”
The Mystic Maiden said, “He’s the future Buddha.”
The old monk lowered his head and was about to recite the Buddha’s name again. Then, favonovel.com heard the Mystic Maiden say, “He’s a disciple of Ksitigarbha. Ksitigarbha said that favonovel.com would be the future Buddha. Do you believe it?”
The old monk was instantly shocked and stared intently at Alex in disbelief.
Alex blushed abashedly. “Sis Mystic Maiden, don’t talk nonsense. I already have a wife and told favonovel.com that we would grow old and live together till the end of time. So how can I be the Buddha?”
The Mystic Maiden said, “Who said that the Buddha can’t get married and have children? You can ask the old monk..”
The old monk closed his mouth and chanted softly.
The Mystic Maiden snorted. “There are many kinds of Buddhist cultivators. I’ve been to the Land of Bliss before. Buddhism over there doesn’t prohibit marriage, so one can get married and have children.”
The old monk said, “The Buddha can’t do that.”
The Mystic Maiden said, “Pooh! You’re just an alarmist! Even Sakyamuni had a wife and a son!”
“That’s the past.”
“Great Monk, I think your cultivation level in Buddhism isn’t high enough. You were mired in deluded conceptions, so you could only stay in the dilapidated Shoraionji Temple. The former Buddha no longer got married nor had children for the sake of meditation practice. He wasn’t tainted by karma because of his cultivation. Everyone has his cultivation, the future Buddha has his cultivation, and the Buddha would face the tribulation of love affairs. Just get married if you want to. Just have children if you want to. This is called natural colossal cultivation… Think about it. If Buddhism unifies the world someday and everyone becomes a Buddha, everyone will stay single, and women won’t give birth to children by then. How will you have the eternal kingdom of Buddhism? All of you will become old folks and eventually die out.”
“Amitabha..!” The old monk’s eyebrows twitched vigorously, but favonovel.com did not know how to refute her.
“Which one are you?” the Mystic Maiden suddenly asked.
“Maha, one of the five Revealers!”
“Oh, so it’s you!”
Alex knew favonovel.com at this point. He was one of the five mighty deities in the Buddha realm.
Meanwhile, the Mystic Maiden pointed at the Buddhist scripts that Revealer Maha had unleashed. “Put them away. I know what these things of yours are. They are traps.”
Then, favonovel.com said to Alex, “If you were to accept these Buddhist scripts, all your love affairs would be over.”
Alex asked, “What do you mean?”
The Mystic Maiden said indifferently, “By wearing the shackles on your own, you will sever your love affairs and break away from love and lust. You’ll become a lonely old geezer for life, just like him.”
“Damn it!”
Alex, who felt great lingering fear, immediately cursed out loud and lambasted the old monk.
Revealer Maha pinched his nose and said, “Forget it. Forget it. I only have good intentions. You can only reach the other shore by focusing on the cultivation of Buddhism. Since you’re addicted to this, you aren’t fated with Buddha. I’ll keep this opportunity for someone else. Both of you, please leave Shoraionji Temple!”
Just then, a crisp voice was heard. “Little Revealer, you think that you aren’t getting enough bumps on your head, don’t you?”
There was a flash of red, and a lady’s beautiful figure suddenly descended.
