Six pairs of eyes met, and all of them suddenly said in unison, "Amitabha, I can't find my Buddha Beads, it seems they have fallen into one of the bowls, so I came to look for..."
The words hadn't been finished when they suddenly froze, the Buddhist disciples took two more steps forward with their companions, and upon clearly seeing the faces before them, they let out a sigh of relief.
"Oh my, really, Brother, I didn't expect it to be you, why are you here too?"
The fellow disciple coughed, glanced at his companions, and then straightened his expression to say, "I couldn't find my Buddha Beads during the Buddhist feast earlier, so I thought to see if they fell into this dish, which is why I came to have a look."
The Buddhist disciples were stunned, then exchanged glances with their companions without uttering a word.
Seeing that they remained silent, the fellow disciple coughed again and asked, "What's wrong? Why have you suddenly shown up here at this hour?"
