43 Baishi Universal Deliverance

No matter how glorious Reimei Temple had been in the past, the past was the past. History was buried and forgotten. Right now, Reimei Temple was reborn as a small temple in Tokyo. 

Although its scale was not comparable to the past, at the very least, it had a lot of genuine ancient scriptures and records. 

This was all the old abbot's effort. No matter how tough his life was, he did not put the knowledge, the most precious treasure, up for sale.

As Baishi Shū admired the old abbot, he also realized the reason why the old abbot chose to keep those ancient scriptures and records. 

It was a kind of anticipation. After all, a temple, land, or even fame were nothing but worldly possessions. It was only by preserving the scripture and ancient records that the foundation of Reimei Temple could be safeguarded. 

There was no need to rush everything. Step by step, he was certain that he would be able to bring Reimei Temple back to its glory one day.
