The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 765

Edith and Casey came to the door of the small temple. The door was closed tightly, so they didn't know if there was anyone inside.

"Is there anyone else?" Edith shouted.

"Perhaps it is a deserted temple, otherwise the tour guide will definitely introduce this place just now. There are very few people here. Probably no one is in this temple." Casey said.

Edith nodded, feeling that what Casey said was very possible.

But not long after Casey finished speaking, the door was opened. Two monks came out from inside.

The two monks bowed to Casey and Edith. One of them said, "This sir and lady, it is your blessing to discover our little temple. Our abbot has laid down the rules. Anyone who finds our temple will get blessing. Please come in with us."

Edith was full of joy. She didn't expect to she could get blessing after finding this small temple. Although she didn't believe in Buddhism, she couldn't completely ignore this kind of metaphysical things. Since they could give her blessings, why didn’t she take it? So she happily walked in.

Upon seeing this, Casey also followed. They two went into the small temple together.

The incense in the temple was lingering, which seemed to be just lighted. A not too big Buddha statue was enshrined in the center. Some tributes that had wilted were placed in front of the table.

A monk wearing a yellow monk robe was sitting cross-legged in front of the Buddha statue and meditating. The two monks walked up to him and one of them said, "Abbot, the destined person has arrived."

The monk opened his eyes. Then he stood up from the ground, turned his head to look at Casey and Edith, with a smile on his face.

"Look at you guys, something good will happen to you two lately, especially this lady. You look so happy. There must be something happy recently." The abbot said.

Edith immediately lowered her head and smiled shyly. Being able to be with Casey was the happiest thing for her.

"Since you came here today, I can give you some gifts to help you guys get much luck. This lady, please come with me."

The abbot made a gesture to let Edith come with him, and then walked in toward a small door inside.

Edith nodded, and followed the abbot toward the inside.

Casey wanted to follow, but was stopped by the two monks.

"Only one person can enter at a time. Please wait outside."

Edith turned her head and glanced at Casey, saying, "It should be over quickly. Just wait here first."

Casey didn't think much, so he nodded. He thought that this temple was not big, so maybe it couldn’t contain too many people inside.

After watching Edith follow the abbot in, Casey walked around the temple. He noticed that there was a lot of dust in some corners of the temple, as if the monks here only cleaned some obvious places.

Looking at the Buddha statue in the temple, the paint on the Buddha statue had fallen off in some places. It seemed that it had not been repaired for a long time. Casey didn't know if this was regarded as disrespect to the Buddha.

Not long after the abbot took Edith in, the two monks followed in. Only Casey was left in the hall. This made Casey feel that these monks were a little unreliable. They made things so mystery just for getting some incense money.

But as long as Edith was happy, he didn’t mind giving them a little money.
