Chapter 257： : All those who raised their hands will be eliminated!

Because of the hot weather recently, Li Chengfeng usually asks Eunuch Wu to bring a hand-operated electric fan when he goes out.

Soon, everyone got into the carriage and headed south all the way to Tianshan Temple in Chang'an City.

Li Chengfeng came here once before, when he came to Tianshan Temple with Li Shimin to pray for blessings, but Li Shimin made a mistake and brought back the old thief Shikong?

But this time, Li Chengfeng will definitely choose a suitable master and return to the palace to be the host!

…

Traveling all the way south, the three of them arrived at Tianshan Temple in the afternoon.

The host of Tianshan Temple is called Master Shi Ran, and there is also a very powerful abbot in Tianshan Temple called Master Tianxing.

It is said that the monks of Tianshan Temple are all backed up by word.

The first gear is Tian, ​​the second gear is Shi, the third gear is Wu, and the fourth gear is Xuan.

In the entire Tianshang Temple, the most powerful person is Master Tianxing.

The second is the masters of Shizi seniority, who are basically Buddhist hosts.

Moreover, Master Shi Kong, who was thrown into the prison by Li Shimin in the palace, is Master Shi Ran's younger brother.

The relationship between the two is very good.

When the presiding officer Shi Ran heard that the Eighth Prince from the palace had arrived, so he rushed out to greet him.

Master Shi Ran knew that the emperor would send a thousand gold incense money to Tianshan Temple every year, so he did not dare to neglect the arrival of the eighth prince Li Chengfeng.

As soon as Master Shi Ran came, he took a group of monks who had understood characters and went out to meet Li Chengfeng.

Master Shi Ran clasped his hands together, nodded and bowed, and said, "And Amitabha, I respectfully welcome the arrival of the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty! I'm not far away, but I don't know what the Eighth Prince is doing when you come to Tianshan Temple this time?"

Li Chengfeng stepped down from the carriage, clasped his hands together, and bowed slightly to show his return.

Li Chengfeng continued: "Master Shi Ran, to tell you the truth, your younger brother, Master Shi Kong, who stole meat in the palace, has been caught by my father and thrown into the dungeon!"

"Ding, surprise from Master Shi Ran, naughty value +99!"

"Ah? There is such a ridiculous thing?" After listening to the presiding officer Shi Ran, he was shocked for a moment, then closed his eyes tightly, and kept chanting 'Amitabha, so good'!

The so-called appearance is born from the heart, the first impression Shi Ran gave to Li Chengfeng was that he was a benevolent old monk.

Although he didn't say he was an eminent monk, Li Chengfeng was quite satisfied with his pious and kind appearance.

Immediately afterwards, Li Chengfeng said again: "Master Shi Ran, if there is such a scum in your Tianshan Temple, it can be considered that my father helped you to clear it up! However, there is still a shortage of temple directors in the current palace, so the emperor sent me to come and see you." Come to Tianshan Temple and choose a qualified master to be the host again, may I ask, Shi Ran host, do you have anyone to recommend?"

"Hey, the matter of Shi Kong, I feel sorry for him, but there is nothing I can do! But I will definitely complete the task entrusted to me by the eighth prince, and I invite you, the eighth prince, to come with me!"

"OK!"

"The Eighth Prince, please!"

After finishing speaking, Master Shi Ran brought Li Chengfeng, Wei Zheng and others to the temple of Tianshan Temple.

…

In order to welcome the arrival of the Eighth Prince, Master Shi Ran ordered the kitchen to prepare six dishes and one clear soup.

All are vegetables, no meat.

Master Shi Ran clasped his hands together, and continued: "Eighth Prince, it is a big taboo for monks to eat meat, so there is no meat in the temple, please let the Eighth Prince do it!"

"Well, it's okay, it's okay!"

Li Chengfeng picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

In fact, for Li Chengfeng, it is not a problem not to eat meat for one or two meals.

After all, his family used to be poor, and when he was a child, he could only eat a meal of pork during the Chinese New Year.

Therefore, Li Chengfeng has a strong adaptability, he eats whatever dishes are available, and he is never picky about food.

Seeing Li Chengfeng eating a big piece, Master Shi Kong nodded heavily, expressing his appreciation for Li Chengfeng's approach.

"The eighth prince is quick and quick, but he is a true temperament. In the future, he must be the king of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Haha, then accept Master Shiran's auspicious words!"

After lunch, Li Chengfeng continued: "Master Shi Ran, when will you recommend me to take Master back?"

Master Shi Ran nodded slightly, and said: "Quickly, the old man has ordered people to go to the Buddhist temple to select the most outstanding disciples of Tianshan Temple, and they will come before the Eighth Prince soon! If the Eighth Prince takes a fancy to that Disciple, you can take it back with you!"

"okay!"

…

After a while, a monk in gray-green cloth came to Li Chengfeng with a group of monks in gray cloth.

Master Shi Ran looked at the group of monks, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Eight princes, these are the most outstanding disciples of Lao Na Tianshan Temple! Moreover, they have entered Tianshan Temple for more than ten years. ! If the Eighth Prince takes a fancy to someone, you can bring him back to the palace to be the host!"

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'm not going to be polite!"

Li Chengfeng suddenly stood up from the bench, and said: "Hello, masters, may I ask, is there anyone among you who would like to go to the palace with my prince and be the presiding officer of the temple? If there is one, please raise your hand!"

The monks immediately looked left and right with shock on their faces.

Because Li Chengfeng's selection method is too random, right? As long as you raise your hand, you can go to the palace with the eighth prince and be the abbot of the temple in the palace?

For a moment, these monks were puzzled and did not dare to raise their hands.

And Li Chengfeng said again: "Don't miss this opportunity If you miss it, you won't come again! I will ask again for the last time, who is willing to go to the palace with this prince to be the host of the palace temple? If so, Please raise your hand!"

The monks were sure that Li Chengfeng's words were correct. In an instant, a row of monks clattered and raised their hands high, looking at Li Chengfeng excitedly.

Although, in the troubled times, the temple is indeed a safe place.

But a mortal will have selfishness.

Who doesn't want to be rich and prosperous? Who doesn't want fame and fortune?

If it wasn't for Master Shi Ran getting old, he might have wanted to go back with Li Chengfeng and become the temple presiding officer.

However, with so many monks raising their hands, Shi Ran looked at Li Chengfeng in distress, and said, "Eighth prince, didn't you say to take one back? Now that so many people want to go back with you, what should you do?"

"Slap!"

Li Chengfeng snapped his fingers and said, "It's very simple! Those who raised their hands are all eliminated!"

"What? All those who raised their hands have been eliminated?"

"Ding, the surprise from Shi Ran's host, naughty value +111!"

"Ding, surprise from Wei Zheng, naughty value +112!"

It wasn't Li Chengfeng himself who said it, anyone who wants to go back with him should raise his hand? But people raised their hands? But Li Chengfeng eliminated them all again?

"Eighth Prince, why are you doing this?"
