Elder Yu waved his hand and said, "Let's take a look at that monastery. As long as Fangzheng keeps performing good deeds, we can open up some doors for him, and let the whole world see that China has a broad and open mind. We can accept everything, and we can adopt everything. At the same time, our culture is rich and profound. Not only can it be seen, we also have a living Buddha!"
He emphasized his words when he said "living Buddha", a cheerful skip in his tone as though he was making a joke.
The middle-aged man was amused, and he bade farewell.
After the man left, Elder Yu knocked on the table and said, "Qing'er, are you pleased now?"
A faint and elegant voice sounded from the room beside. "If he hadn't done well, could This Penniless Priest have changed your mind?"
"Haha! Qing'er, that's nothing like you. You wouldn't have said such words of flattery in the past," Elder Yu said with a laugh.
