The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled in the courtyard reflected everyone's different moods at this time.

Yang Ming's question made everyone fall silent, especially the old monk who was frowning and thinking about this question.

After a while, the abbot inadvertently saw Yang Ming's confident look, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Little donor Yang, I know that you have a gap in your heart, and I ask you to guide me!"

The old abbot's words made the eyes of the other monks of Shaolin Temple turn to Yang Ming.

Master Yang also looked at the disciple, although he didn't know what Yang Ming thought in his heart, but he thought of the set of guidelines that Yang Ming designed for the Wuji Gate, and it was estimated that the meaning that the disciple wanted to express this time was almost like that.

When Yang Ming heard the old abbot's words, he didn't shirk, coughed lightly, looked around at everyone, and then said slowly: "First of all, we have to figure out what is the purpose of making a movie about Shaolin Temple?"

"For money, or for fame, or for something else?"

The old abbot and the other monks couldn't help but show a thoughtful face when they heard Yang Ming's rhetorical question.

However, before they could react, Yang Ming continued: "As far as I know, Shaolin Temple should be Zen Buddhism, but among the Buddhist holy places in China, there is no Chongshan Shaolin lineage!"

At this point, except for the old abbot, the other monks couldn't help but look at Yang Ming viciously.

The four famous Buddhist mountains in China are Wutai Mountain in Shanxi, Putuo Mountain in Zhejiang, Emei Mountain in Sichuan, and Jiuhua Mountain in Anhui. It is known as "Golden Wutai, Silver Putuo, Copper Emei, and Iron Jiuhua". They are dedicated to Manjushri Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Fugen Bodhisattva, and Jizo Bodhisattva.

Wutai Mountain, Putuo Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, Emei Mountain, these four places are recognized as Buddhist holy places, are the four famous mountains. The most famous of these places is Mount Wutai, which serves as the ashram of Manjushri Bodhisattva, which is clearly recorded in Buddhist texts, and the other three places are the holy places of the Bodhisattva's manifestation.

In the previous life, Shaolin Temple used commercialization to promote Shaolin Temple to the world, but it could not change its embarrassing position in Buddhism.

It can only be regarded as a famous temple, not a Buddhist holy place.

In this life, with the influence of the Shaolin Temple now, it is even more unbearable than in the previous life.

The reason why Yang Ming said this was not to poke the sore feet of the Shaolin Temple, he glanced at the few monks in front of him with angry faces, and calmly continued: "On the grounds of martial arts and the carrier of movies, I can indeed increase the popularity of the Shaolin Temple a lot in a short period of time, but how can we maintain this influence, whether at home or abroad, how can we attract local people and let the Shaolin Temple grow to reach the height of your hearts?"

"The gorgeous and dazzling martial arts can make you happy for a while, but you can't protect the glory of Shaolin Temple, so what should you do when the people have passed the freshness of martial arts? Continue to use all kinds of novel martial arts moves? If that happens, it will not be what I want!"

According to the development process of Shaolin Temple in his previous life, he analyzed the ending of Shaolin Temple in the future, and it is not a long-term solution to rely on gorgeous martial arts alone.

However, Yang Ming also revealed a trace of his inner thoughts in his words.

The old abbot looked up at Yang Ming, his eyes were shining, and he said with a strange look: "Buddhism?

Yang Ming said happily when he heard this: "Not bad!"

"Buddhism has a long history, Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, if you use movies to package and promote, combined with Shaolin martial arts, it must have a unique charm, martial arts as the branch, Buddhism Zen as the foundation, so that you can go further!" Yang Ming said meaningfully.

"That's a great word!" the old abbot became, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he longed to go back to his room at this time, and quietly think about the idea by himself.

"You can learn from the development of Western religions!" Yang Ming thought for a while and added, "Western people can go to churches to pray for their sins, hold wedding ceremonies for newlyweds, and even pray for the deceased to be buried in peace, you don't have to learn all their functions, but it is necessary to study the system of Western religions!"

In fact, Yang Ming thought about the development of Western religion in China in his previous life, and felt extremely heartache.

Needless to say, Valentine's Day and Christmas are much more important in the minds of many young people than Qixi Festival and New Year's Day.

Western Christianity has also expanded dramatically in China, and even the old men and grandmothers in the countryside believe in Jesus, and they can donate hundreds of yuan in order to build Christian churches.

Marriage, funeral, prayer, there is nothing that a Christian church cannot do.

Yang Ming remembered that a friend in his previous life went to the church to get a marriage ceremony, and it took nearly 50,000 yuan to add all kinds of expenses together, and a priest alone included 10,000 red envelopes, as well as the cost of renting the venue.

Of course, this also varies depending on the situation in each place.

In fact, this is a kind of expression of the influence of Western culture on China.

This phenomenon is still relatively rare in this world, after all, the government in this world attaches great importance to the traditional culture and customs of China, and it is better to protect this area, and even strictly order the local government to set an example, which makes the traditional culture get the greatest protection.

But in the future, we can't rely on the government level to protect culture, right?

The progress of science and technology, the emergence of various high-tech, and the promotion of national culture through the media are also an important means in today's society.

Yang Ming hopes that through the carrier of guò movies, Chinese culture can be spread to every corner of the world, so that people all over the world can be infected by the advanced Chinese civilization and identify with Chinese civilization.

Subsequently, he built yì old abbot If the Shaolin Temple became famous, set up branches in various places, then the rules that must be formulated.

Here, Yang Ming took the Wuji Pavilion as a reference.

Wuji Pavilion represents Taoist culture, so what are the characteristics of Taoist culture?

Do nothing, the Tao is natural!

But these foreigners must not understand it at first! Then Yang Ming replaced these concepts with the meaning that foreigners can understand!

Advocating freedom, unrestrained!

When Yang Ming came up with the theme idea for the Wuji Pavilion for foreign people, it was promoted in the museum, and it immediately achieved good results.

Originally, foreigners have been shouting that they want to liberate their nature, want human rights and freedom, and protest even if they do something big.

Wujiguan's Taoist thought with 'freedom' as the core is very popular with martial arts students.

In other words, what students learn at Wuji Pavilion is not martial arts, but freedom!

Only in this way can the trainees be united into a rope, exert greater influence, and infect more people with common ideas.

When the old abbot listened to Yang Ming's introduction to the various rules of the Wuji Pavilion, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and before Yang Ming finished speaking, the old monk left Yang Ming and left, and then threw down a sentence:

"I'll go back and think about what kind of Buddhist thought our Shaolin Temple uses as the core of the museum!"
