"What's wrong?"
Su Shiming noticed Xiao Chen's abnormality and asked in a low voice.
"Giant."
Xiao Chen looked at the skinny old monk and slowly said two words.
"oh?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming's eyes flashed, but soon returned to normal.
"The monk king must be very strong... If he is a giant, it is normal."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked behind the skinny old monk, only to see three other old monks following behind him.
When he saw one of them, he smiled. Haha, a familiar face, Master Ajarn is here again.
"Welcome the monk king..."
The King of Siam stood up and smiled.
"I have met the King of Siam..."
The monk king stopped, clasped his hands together, and smiled.
Xiao Chen and others also stood up. No matter what, this was basic etiquette.
Although every one of them has a bad impression of Buddhism.
“It is indeed very strong.”
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai looked at the Monk King, then turned to look at Xiao Chen. He was no match for him.
“Master, wait for you to take another step, it will be easy to beat him.”
Xiao Chen whispered.
"hehe."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai chuckled and looked at the Monk King again.
At this time, the King of Siam had already exchanged a few words with the King of Monks and began to introduce Xiao Chen and others.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Xiao... Hello."
The monk king's skinny face was full of smiles.
"Monk King, I have long admired my name..."
Xiao Chen also smiled. He wanted to see how legendary this old monk was.
Hope is not a false reputation.
"Everyone please take a seat, let's sit down and talk."
The King of Siam greeted him and then looked at the eldest prince.
"Pulley, go tell the restaurant to start preparing."
"yes."
The eldest prince nodded and turned to leave.
"Mr. Xiao, we meet again."
Master Azan greeted Xiao Chen.
"Haha, it seems that Master Azan and I are really destined to be together."
Xiao Chen also smiled.
“…”
Hearing this, Master Achan felt a little embarrassed. After all, the last time they met, it was not a pleasant experience.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Xiao."
The King of Sangha seemed to notice Master Ajahn’s embarrassment and smiled.
"It's not much help, just a little help."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Besides, this is also for the sake of the royal family, so the monk king does not need to thank me."
“…”
Following Xiao Chen's words, the atmosphere at the scene changed slightly. These words did not give face to Buddhism.
"Haha, the relationship between Buddhism and the royal family is extraordinary. Mr. Xiao is helping Buddhism for the sake of the royal family."
The monk king’s smile did not diminish in the slightest.
"So, I still have to thank Mr. Xiao for his help."
“…”
Xiao Chen looked at the monk king deeply. This old monk was really not a simple person.
He said so. As a giant, he can have such an attitude.
Su Shiming also adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. No matter whether it was the King of Siam or the King of Sangha, none of them was easy to deal with.
However, he was not worried. After all, since he had known Xiao Chen, he had never seen this kid suffer any loss.
If you really make this kid angry, he can smash any lamp!
"Hahaha, yes, I have already thanked Mr. Xiao just now."
The King of Siam also laughed.
"The royal family and Buddhism are one family. It doesn't matter who Mr. Xiao helps, it doesn't matter who he helps."
As the King of Siam laughed, the atmosphere suddenly became much better.
Xiao Chen also smiled and nodded: "I have a grudge against the Holy See of Light, and I don't want to see them being arrogant... I hope that this time, you two can teach them a lesson."
"Haha, definitely."
The King of Siam smiled.
"Mr. Xiao, why don't you join in the fun?"
"I can't. I plan to leave the day after tomorrow."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Go back to China, there are still some things to do."
"Oh? Are you in such a hurry? You still want to keep Mr. Xiao in Siam for a few more days, so that we can show our hospitality as a good host."
Said the King of Siam.
"Haha, let's wait for the next opportunity."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Since we are already friends, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"Haha, okay."
The King of Siam smiled and nodded.
"I heard that you have been to the Jade Buddha Temple?"
After chatting for a while, the monk king looked at the ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and asked.
Someone nearby immediately translated it.
"Amitabha, I don't deserve it."
The ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai shouted the Buddha's name lightly. The Patriarch was the leader of the Siamese Buddhist community and held an extraordinary status.
Therefore, the title of 'senior brother' is not worthy, and it also gives him enough face.
Xiao Chen also looked over. Why did the Monk King ask this?
Could it be that this old monk has doubts about something?
"One of the reasons why I came to Siam is to visit this land of Buddha and communicate with you brothers... On that day, I went to the Temple of the Emerald Buddha and worshipped the Emerald Buddha."
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai said slowly.
"Haha, a Chinese monk came to Siam. We are being rude..."
The monk king chuckled.
"I wonder what Senior Brother thinks of the Jade Buddha?"
Listening to the monk king's words, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows slightly. Is he really suspicious?
Is this not the Hongmen Banquet tonight?
It shouldn't be the case.
However, if the matter of the Jade Buddha were to be exposed, how would Buddhism and the royal family react?
Take action?
There is no choice but to fight our way out.
At this moment, Xiao Chen even had the Xuanyuan Blade ready, ready to strike at any time.
Killing the Sangha King might be a little difficult, but killing the King of Siam... is still possible.
"When I saw the Jade Buddha, I felt a strong affinity with him..."
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai looked at the King of Monks and spoke slowly.
"I also proposed to stay at the Jade Buddha Temple that day...but I was rejected."
"So... my apologies."
The monk king said this, clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.
The three old monks next to them also made the same gesture.
Because there was a translator, Zhao Lao Mo, Lei Gong and others could understand what they were talking about.
Zhao Lao Mo looked at Xiao Chen. They both knew very well what the jade Buddha was like.
What Xiao Chen can think of, they can also think of.
Seeing Zhao Lao Mo looking at him, Xiao Chen shook his head slightly, indicating not to be impulsive.
"It's not impolite. Buddhists all over the world are one family, but there are differences..."
The ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai shook his head and clasped his hands together in response.
"The monk king doesn't need to worry about these things."
"good."
The monk king nodded.
"The Emerald Buddha is the most precious treasure of Siamese Buddhism, but now it is lost... I have made a great wish to find the Emerald Buddha in my lifetime."
Xiao Chen looked at the monk king. Is this old monk serious?
No doubt?
If you have no doubt, you will probably have a hard time in your lifetime.
However, that’s not necessarily the case. If the jade Buddha was useless, he might not keep it.
When the time comes and he's in a good mood, it's not impossible that he will return it to the Siamese Buddhist sect.
So it is still possible in this lifetime.
"It is admirable that the monk king can make such a great wish... I believe that one day, the Jade Buddha will return to Buddhism."
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai said slowly.
"Um."
The monk king nodded.
"Monk King, if we can defeat the Holy See of Light this time, the Jade Buddha will have a chance..."
The King of Siam said to the King of Sangha.
"Now that the Dark Church has joined us, we have a better chance of success... I believe that the Buddha will also bless us."
"Yes."
The monk king clasped his hands together with a pious look on his face.
“…”
Xiao Chen looked at the Supreme Patriarch, then at the King of Siam, feeling a little confused.
After all this talk, is it doubtful or not?
If in doubt, act early.
Without any doubt, I can enjoy the feast with peace of mind.
He thought about it and looked at Su Shiming.
With his father-in-law around, he doesn't have to worry about it.
Su Shiming saw Xiao Chen looking at him, chuckled and shook his head.
Xiao Chen felt relieved. If his father-in-law said it was okay, then it must be okay.
Afterwards, everyone chatted, and the King of Monks started chatting with the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai.
The two no longer talked about the jade Buddha, but instead talked about Buddhism.
Su Shiming was quite interested, and the King of Siam was also listening carefully.
In the end, it was Xiao Chen and the others who felt a little bored.
Fortunately, at this time, someone came to report that the restaurant was ready.
"Let's go to the restaurant and talk while we eat."
The King of Siam stood up and said.
"good."
Everyone nodded, stood up and walked out.
"Third brother, are you sure everything is alright? Is this a Hongmen Banquet? Wait a minute, I'll sit next to you."
Zhao Lao Mo lowered his voice and said.
"Huh? Why are you sitting next to me?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
“It’s safe.”
Zhao Lao Mo said seriously.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Well, Old Zhao was determined to keep his fear of death.
"I think this old monk must be very powerful..."
Old Devil Zhao said one more sentence.
"Big guy, how can you not be awesome?"
Xiao Chen glanced at the Monk King.
"And it's not the sixth heaven, it's probably the seventh heaven."
"Seventh Heaven... Damn it, can I not eat? I want to take an imperial bath."
Old Demon Zhao was a little panicked.
"It's too late... Aren't you afraid that you'll be beaten up by them when you go back alone?"
Xiao Chen was scaring Zhao Lao Mo.
"Well, forget it. It's safer to be with you."
Zhao Lao Mo said immediately.
"If anything happens, you have to protect me."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. When Lao Zhao became ruthless, he was really ruthless. When he was afraid of death... he was really afraid of death.
Arriving at the restaurant, everyone sat down.
Zhao Lao Mo originally wanted to lean on Xiao Chen, but there was no room.
He thought about it and went between David and Lei Gong. He thought this location was good and safe enough.
"Today, I invite all the distinguished guests to taste Siamese delicacies... some of which are hard to find outside."
The King of Siam said with a smile.
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Soon, the dishes came up one after another, including everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, and swims in the water...
"Come, let's raise our glasses together. First, we have distinguished guests, and second, we want to celebrate our victory in advance."
The King of Siam picked up the cup and said loudly.
"Haha, it's time to celebrate."
Xiao Chen smiled and clinked glasses with the King of Siam.
After drinking, everyone started to enjoy dinner.
"What is this? A pig's nose?"
Zhao Lao Mo looked at the dish in front of him and asked curiously.
"No, that's the trunk..."
Master Hongchai smiled and introduced.
"trunk?"
Old Demon Zhao's eyes lit up slightly. He had eaten pig trunks before, but this was the first time he had eaten elephant trunks.
Not to mention Old Devil Zhao, even Xiao Chen and Su Shiming had not eaten many dishes.
In the words of the King of Siam, it cannot be eaten outside...only the royal family can eat it.
This made Xiao Chen sigh that being a king was actually quite good.
