Chapter 605: News from the Northeast
After greeting Jinglian, Su Wen asked Xinghui to bring 500 copies to the broken temple where Jinglian originally lived on the outskirts of Yuzhou.
At the same time, let Xinghui find the woman who had been taking care of Jinglian, and ask her to help inform the others that if you want Jinglian, you can get it yourself.
Anyone can go and retrieve it, and if all the scriptures are taken away, Suwen will ask people to continue to place the scriptures there.
On the other hand, Su Wen asked her if she would like to work in the East China Sea.
There is still a shortage of manpower on the side of the martial arts school.
Su Wen is not only grateful to this woman in his heart, but also likes this woman's heart, and can't bear to see her continue to stay in that industry.
If she goes to the East China Sea, no one knows her past, and she can have a decent job and live an ordinary life.
The woman got Xinghui's message, but she just said to think about it.
At the same time, there was another sentence for him to bring back, not for Su Wen but for Jinglian: "I memorized the scripture you taught me." ”
Jinglian laughed very happily after hearing this.
Xinghui finished his business in Yuzhou and did not return to the temple, but rushed directly to Wuzhen Temple and sent the five meetings over.
After asking about the situation, the temple did not immediately give a conclusion, but left it to be studied by the monks and elders of the temple.
After Xinghui left, Jing Zhen left one for himself, and he asked people to give the other books to the elders of the temple and Jing Jue and other Dharma masters who had profound Buddhist cultivation.
Su Wen nodded after getting Xinghui's reply, as long as the book is delivered, it is also necessary to study.
However, in Su Wen's opinion, there is a commendable place in this meeting, and it would be a pity if it was buried.
Therefore, it is directly allowed to be collected and placed in the Scripture Pavilion for others to read.
A few days later, Suwen received another call from Igab and the front and back feet of Hengshan Temple.
Igab is talking about something that has happened recently.
After Liu Xingwang's last clash with the Catholic local church in Binzhou and the defeat of both sides, the personnel in the Binzhou area began to shrink, and according to Igabu's suspicion, they asked for help from other dioceses or foreign sources.
In the end, the facts also proved that her guess was completely correct.
This time the Catholic Church was different from the slow action of the struggle with Taoism in the south, and in just a few days, more than 30 deacons and priests arrived in Binzhou, and there was even an archbishopric level inside.
In addition to them, there were more than a hundred monks and nuns as an entourage.
In Catholicism, the lay people are called laity, and above them are monks, nuns, and above are deacons.
The deacon was originally the sixth rank of the gods, also known as the "six ranks", and his duty was to assist the priest.
Further up is the priest, the head of a parish.
Above is the bishop, the presiding officer of a local church, the head of the diocese.
Then there are the archbishops and cardinals. Among them the archbishop is the abbot of the province.
Originally, the Catholic Church only had one diocese in Ben Cheng in the northeast, but this time it sent an archbishop, and the significance is self-evident.
In addition to this, Igab also found some more hidden things.
Originally, Catholicism was divided into seven categories of clergy, namely the first rank (priest), the second rank (chanter), the third rank (exorcist), the fourth rank (auxiliary priest - the ceremonial member), the fifth rank (the deputy priest), the sixth rank (the assistant priest, the deputy deacon), and the seventh rank (the priest - including the priest and the bishop).
Today, although it has been changed to three levels: deacon, priest, and bishop, part of the original structure of the church still exists.
For example - the exorcist. Now they are divided into deacons, but they are still doing what they have always done.
This was the case with many of the deacons who came this time.
From the personnel sent to support this time, it can be seen that the Catholic Church is preparing to solve Liu Xingwang and other people who are preparing to block the road in one fell swoop, and after spreading northward, it will establish a religious province, and then radiate the entire northeast with the religious province as the core.
However, how to act, whether it is slowly eroding or expanding strongly, depends on what they do in the future.
The day after Igabu's call, Suwen received a call from Hengshan Temple.
Once again, Catholicism clashed with Liu Xingwang. After all, in order to take revenge, Liu Xingwang never stopped, and made the disciples in Binzhou restless. As long as someone dares to come forward, it will definitely suffer that night.
It is precisely because of this that the Catholic priest fought with the Qingfeng Tablet King sent by Liu Xingwang, and both sides lost.
Now that there is support, he immediately fought with Liu Xingwang again.
It is not known exactly how Hengshan Temple was located, but the Catholics went straight to Liu Xingwang's house the next day.
Recently, a few disciples of Hengshan Temple have been left in the vicinity, and they rushed to it as soon as they received the news.
One of these disciples had practiced martial arts when he was a child, and although he was not a master, three or two ordinary people still couldn't help him.
A few people thought that this time they were going to stop them, and there should be no problem.
Unexpectedly, before a few people stopped each other and said a few words, they were knocked to the ground by a middle-aged man among the other parties. The disciple who had practiced martial arts was knocked out with a punch before he even walked on a round.
Then those people rushed to Liu Xingwang's house, and even smashed the entrance of the hall, Liu Xingwang wanted to stop it, but he was punched by the man and fainted directly to the ground, and now he is still in the hospital and has not woken up.
It is said that there were deacons who did something in Liu Xingwang's hall at that time, combined with what Liu Xingwang had done, it should be related to those stele kings Qingfeng. It is estimated that the details will not be known until Liu Xingwang wakes up.
Later, Hengshan Temple found out that the middle-aged man who knocked down all the disciples of Hengshan Temple with a few punches that day was called Connie, who used to be a middleweight boxing champion, and later inflated himself and degraded himself after winning the gold belt, and later disappeared into the boxing world.
I don't know when I actually entered Catholicism and became a real clergyman.
With such a figure here, it will be difficult for Hengshan Temple to block Catholicism as before, and no one is his opponent.
Of course, there is another way, which is to call the police.
After all, it is a fact that Catholics forcibly broke into Liu Xingwang's house, and it is also a fact that Liu Xingwang was injured.
However, it doesn't make much sense to do this, even if a few people are arrested for ten days and half a month, it doesn't matter to the other party.
The other party's purpose is to stop Liu Xingwang, or to break his hall so that he is no longer able to interfere with Catholicism.
From this point of view, the Catholic Church has learned a little about these disciples.
And the other party also did something in Liu Xingwang's mouth, thinking that their goal had been achieved.
As long as the Xuancheng demons have been punished, and Liu Xingwang can no longer harass them, then it will become an established fact, and those believers will be more religious.
Su Wen listened to the Venerable Sexual Contemplation on the phone, and reassured: "The Venerable Master can wait and see what happens to those people first. If there is any need, the poor monk can arrange for the monks in the temple to go. ”
Hearing this, the sexual outlook was immediately relieved.
After all, the strength of the Pure Heart Temple can be said to be second to none among all the temples within the Buddhist Gate, and the three masters in the temple, Zhishen, Tanzong, and Yixuan, are all well-known masters.
Although the use of force to solve problems is never a good way to solve problems, and it is not advocated by Buddhism, it is one of the best ways to deal with friction between such sects.
In other words, there are usually only two types of conflict between sects: negotiation and force.
This method was used in the first conflict between Catholicism and shamanism.
