Chapter 11 Quasi-Emperor Forbidden Artifact!
"This…"
Looking at the scene before them, both Ye Fan and Pang Bo widened their eyes in shock.
"Dalei Yin Temple!"
Pointing at the ancient characters on the ancient temple's plaque, Ye Fan blurted out with a shocked expression.
"What?"
"This is the Dalei Yin Temple from myths?"
"Then have we arrived at the Western Paradise?"
Hearing this, Pang Bo's expression changed drastically in alarm, and both of them turned to look at Lu Chen.
"Any questions can wait until later; for now, let's go inside and find treasures!"
After saying that, Lu Chen walked towards the inside of the ancient temple.
Hearing this, Ye Fan and Pang Bo immediately followed.
"Beneath the dust on the ground, there are quite a few Buddhist implements and Magic Treasures left behind by Sakyamuni. Take whichever one you like quickly."
After explaining, Lu Chen walked straight towards the position of the altar table.
On this altar table, only two things were placed: a stone Buddha statue and a Buddha lamp.
Lu Chen removed a string of prayer beads from the top of the stone Buddha statue's head. This string of prayer beads had a total of six beads strung together by an extremely thin, transparent silk thread, and each bead had a blurry figure of a Buddha on it.
This string of prayer beads was originally Liu Yiyi's Opportunity. Now, thanks to Lu Chen's reminder, Liu Yiyi avoided the suffering of displacement across the Star Domain, so this prayer bead was naturally accepted by Lu Chen on her behalf.
After putting away the prayer beads, Lu Chen picked up the Buddha lamp on the table and shoved it into Ye Fan's hands.
"I feel that this Buddha lamp is fated with you, take it."
Looking at the Buddha lamp in his hands, Ye Fan opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but ultimately stopped himself. However, the gaze he directed at Lu Chen was full of "bromance".
"Stop right there!"
"I'm a pure man; if you have any special hobbies, you can find Pang Bo."
Lu Chen said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ye Fan immediately raised his hand and punched Lu Chen on the shoulder, scolding with a smile:
"I'm a pure man too!"
On the other side, Pang Bo was already acting like a vacuum cleaner on the ground.
It was just unknown whether his luck was bad or if Sakyamuni was deliberately targeting him, but after searching the ground for a long time, Pang Bo ultimately only found half a broken Buddha brick.
Lu Chen did not stay here, but walked straight towards the side hall next to it.
After a period of rummaging, Lu Chen successfully found the target of his trip: a bronze Buddha statue with a few tiny cracks on its surface.
This was the only Quasi-Emperor Forbidden Artifact in this Dalei Yin Temple, a proper trump card.
In the original work, Li Xiaoman holding this Buddha statue had caused Ye Fan a lot of suffering.
Now Lu Chen naturally accepted it unceremoniously with a smile.
Besides this bronze Buddha statue, Lu Chen also found several other items, storing them all into his storage ring first regardless of whether they were useful or not.
Afterwards, Lu Chen returned to the main hall.
At this moment, monitor Lin Jia also walked in from outside. Upon seeing the three of them, Lin Jia immediately asked:
"Lu Chen, what temple is this?"
"Dalei Yin Temple."
Lu Chen said with a smile, and then began to search around the main hall as well.
Very quickly, Lu Chen found three more things: a fairly well-preserved alms bowl, a vajra pestle with only half remaining, and half a fractured wooden fish.
"Monitor, take this!"
"There might be danger here later, take this to defend yourself."
Lu Chen handed the vajra pestle to Lin Jia and said.
Having harvested a bountiful harvest, Lu Chen didn't care much about this half of the vajra pestle.
This vajra pestle was originally supposed to fall into Liu Yunzhi's hands, but instead, it was given to Lin Jia by Lu Chen.
Afterwards, without waiting for Lin Jia to say anything, Lu Chen dragged Ye Fan's arm and walked out of the ancient temple.
The treasures had been mostly found, so it was time to go look at the bodhi tree outside.
After all, the others were almost coming over. In the original work, no one paid attention to this bodhi tree, but Lu Chen couldn't guarantee whether any unexpected situations would arise.
Therefore, it was better to secure it into his bag early.
"Yezi, look over there to see if there is something?"
Arriving under the bodhi tree, Lu Chen pointed at the soil at the roots of the tree and spoke.
Following Lu Chen's guidance, Ye Fan also noticed the bodhi seed on the ground, and immediately squatted down to dig it out.
At the same time Ye Fan took away the bodhi seed, Lu Chen quickly stored the few unwithered bodhi leaves on the tree into his storage ring.
Regarding this bodhi seed, Lu Chen did not plan to intercept it.
This thing was considered compensation left by Sakyamuni to the Sacred Body lineage, and it still retained a trace of Sakyamuni's Divine Thought on it.
Moreover, even if Lu Chen needed to use this bodhi seed to aid in enlightenment in the future, he could completely just ask Ye Fan to borrow it directly.
However, after staring at the walnut-sized bodhi seed in his hand for a moment, Ye Fan handed this bodhi seed in front of Lu Chen and said:
"Brother Chen, I don't know what this thing is useful for, I'll give it to you."
"This is a bodhi seed; it has the effect of helping people attain enlightenment."
"Keep it for now. If I need it in the future, I'll just ask you for it."
Lu Chen shook his head and said.
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Ye Fan didn't say anything more and put the bodhi seed away.
Just in this short while, Liu Yunzhi and the others also walked over.
"Ye Fan, what are the things in your hands?"
Seeing the alms bowl and Buddha lamp held in Lu Chen and Ye Fan's hands, Liu Yunzhi asked.
Then, before Ye Fan could speak, Li Changqing, who was following beside Liu Yunzhi, immediately said:
"It must be the treasures they found inside this temple."
As soon as these words came out, the others couldn't help it either, and all of them ran towards the inside of the temple.
Lu Chen and Ye Fan did not go back in, but waited outside for Pang Bo.
Not long after, Pang Bo walked out with a depressed look on his face, obviously not having found any decent treasure.
However, upon stepping out of the temple gate, Pang Bo turned around to glance at the plaque overhead. Then he strode to the side, moved a few large stones to pad under his feet, and took down the bronze plaque engraved with "Dalei Yin Temple".
"Brother Chen, Yezi, how do you think this treasure of mine is?"
Dragging the plaque, Pang Bo came before Lu Chen and Ye Fan, boasting with glee, clearly very satisfied with this plaque.
At this time, the other classmates who had entered the temple also walked out one after another.
Since the vajra pestle was given to Lin Jia by Lu Chen, Liu Yunzhi this time only found half a broken ruler.
Zhou Yi held a broken bronze bell in his hand, and Li Xiaoman also found half a jade ruyi.
Among the remaining classmates, a few people also found some fragmentary Buddhist implements.
Just at this moment, everyone discovered that the temple behind them suddenly began to shake.
"The demons suppressed beneath the temple are about to come out, run quickly!"
After shouting, Lu Chen grabbed Ye Fan and Pang Bo and ran towards the direction of the five-colored altar they had come from.
Hearing this, the other classmates also immediately turned on their heels and ran.
Only two or three classmates seemed not to have reacted yet and were still hesitating on the spot.
Then everyone saw that, accompanied by a loud "boom", the stone Buddha inside the temple collapsed, and the entire temple subsequently turned into fine dust.
