Ye Chen returned to Tang Seng's side and waited for the response from the temple. After a while, the gate of the Guanyin Temple was opened again, and an old abbot walked out, surrounded by monks.
"Amitabha. Are you Master Sanzang from Chang 'an City?" The old abbot bowed respectfully when he saw Tang Seng. Tang Seng was no longer meditating, so he quickly got off his horse and answered.
After the two of them chatted for a while, the old abbot invited the three people and the horse who were heading west into the temple. He got his disciples to feed the horse and brought Ye Chen, Sun Wukong, and Tang Sanzang into the main hall of the Guanyin Temple.
"How is my Guanyin Temple compared to the temples in Chang 'an City?" As soon as everyone sat down, the old abbot directly asked a question that Tang Seng didn't know how to answer.
"Abbot, your Guanyin Temple is magnificent. Compared to your temple, the temples in Chang 'an City are like fireflies competing with the bright moon. They can't be compared, they can't be compared."
Ye Chen smiled and answered the old abbot's question for Tang Seng. After Ye Chen finished speaking, the old abbot's face immediately lit up. "Amitabha. Bring me my tea set and serve tea to Master Sanzang and his disciples."
The monks under the abbot agreed and then walked down the main hall. After a while, they returned with a good tea set.
Ye Chen lifted his head to look at the tea set. Although the tea set was indeed expensive, it was nothing compared to the tea set that the emperor used in the palace that he saw.
However, Ye Chen didn't show this. He smiled and looked at the tea set brought by the monks, his eyes full of admiration and envy.
The abbot saw Ye Chen's performance and became happier. Ye Chen's compliment to him just now made him very happy. At this moment, seeing the admiration in Ye Chen's eyes, the abbot was even happier.
Although the abbot was a Buddhist, he was a greedy and treacherous villain who liked to show off his wealth. Ye Chen knew this very well, so he didn't want to have any conflict with the abbot.
The abbot took the tea set and poured tea for the three of them. During this time, the abbot kept bragging about the preciousness of the tea set in his hand, and Ye Chen also echoed.
However, Monkey King, who was sitting on the side, was very contemptuous of the abbot's behavior. He looked at the tea set in the monk's hand and wished he could slap all these tea sets to pieces to vent his anger.
"Monkey, don't take these people seriously. There's no need to. We can't become like them," Ye Chen reminded in a low voice. Monkey King was a lot more clear-headed.
After the abbot finished pouring tea for everyone, Ye Chen was the first to pick up the teacup and take a sip. He then nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, this tea is fragrant and elegant. I can tell at a glance that it's good tea. After drinking it, I feel as if all five of my organs have been refreshed. The abbot has really put in a lot of effort to entertain the three of us."
Actually, how could this tea be good tea? Ye Chen could tell that the tea was inferior the moment he drank it. The tea leaves in the tea weren't even as good as the tea leaves that Ye Chen drank in the hotel in Chang 'an City.
However, after the abbot heard this, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face. Ye Chen's compliment had won his heart. The more he looked at Ye Chen, the more he liked him.
However, although he liked him, the abbot's desire to compare himself didn't decrease at all. After drinking a mouthful of tea, he placed the teacup on the table.
"I wonder if the few of you who have come from afar have any treasures of the Eastern Lands? Why don't you take them out and let us poor monks like us see them? "
