Chapter 112: Bullying My Little Brother?
Zhang Zichen is already immune to the words "something happened", and some time ago, the star officer on duty liked to tell him "Your Majesty, something happened!" or "Your Majesty, something is wrong!", but every time he didn't turn the danger into a disaster, did he solve it smoothly.
Immunity is immunity, but Zhang Zichen is still very helpless, every time the star officer on duty called him in the past, there must have been something tricky happening, such as the time when Yang Jian made a fuss, Zhang Zichen wiped his face and played a scoundrel, so he collected five million catties of spiritual liquid from those high-level immortals.
For this reason, it was also put on the table by those people, obviously it was a matter of military salaries in the heavenly court, and those black-hearted immortals did not have obligations to enjoy benefits, and they also transferred these "donations" into his Jade Emperor's personal debts.
Finally, the star officer on duty hasn't called him for a long time, and who knows that the two guys around him have become those mouthy crows again.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Zichen is not in a hurry, looking at the faces of the two of them, there should be nothing too big.
"That's your majesty, when Lao Zhao and I went out for a walk today, we happened to pass by a small Taoist temple, this Taoist temple is the Jade Emperor Temple dedicated to the statue of His Majesty, because of the incense, it has been very ruined, but there are still a few believers in my heavenly court who are sticking to it.
These believers have persevered in the world for decades in the end of the Dharma era, but this time they have encountered big trouble, I heard them say that a developer in the west of the city has taken a fancy to the location of the Jade Emperor Temple and wants to take it down for commercial use.
A few believers refused, so the bully boss hired a group of pundits and pestered them all day long, and today they even forcibly broke into the Jade Emperor Hall and smashed the statue of Your Majesty!
Such lawless, ignorant mortals who have no fear must be punished, and it is up to Your Majesty to decide how to punish them. ”
Zhao couldn't help but say emotionally, and it could be seen that he was very angry.
"It is easy to punish such ignorant mortals, but what I have seen today shows the severity of the end of the law, and my Heavenly Court's faith has declined to such a point!"
The old Zhao Dezhu thought more far-reaching, brushing his beard and expressing his worries.
"Forced demolition on Lao Tzu's head?"
Zhang Zichen listened to Zhao Zhuzhu's report, and the first reaction in his mind was like this.
Regarding the belief of the heavenly court in the world, he also knows a little about the Taoist temples dedicated to the various gods and goddesses of the heavenly court, and the incense they worship will eventually reach the heavenly court with the incense, and the power of faith will be blessed on the gods who are enshrined, accumulating their merits and cultivation, and the aura contained in the incense will be concentrated in the hands of the god of wealth Bigan, and finally distributed according to the subsistence allowance of Yulu.
This is the method used by the former Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen in order to alleviate the contradictions in the Heavenly Court, but with the advent of the end of the law era, the belief in the Heavenly Court has declined to such a point, and the effect of this method is minimal, so the former Jade Emperor ran away in debt.
Since Zhang Zichen succeeded to the throne, he found another way, changing the idea of passively accepting incense from the heavenly court in the past, and instead actively entered the WTO, making up for the deficit of the heavenly court's aura through buying and selling and borrowing from the high immortals, so that the decline of incense was temporarily shelved.
It wasn't until Lao Zhao mentioned it today that this matter appeared in Zhang Zichen's sight again.
No matter how Zhang Zichen obtained the aura, he couldn't sit idly by and watch the Jade Emperor Guan being smashed this time, this was not only a matter of Heavenly Court's beliefs, but also a matter of the dignity of Heavenly Court and the current Jade Emperor Zhang Zichen.
If you don't punish these mortals who have no reverence, how can you show the cycle of heavenly principles and the majesty of heaven!
What's more, the Taoist priests in the Jade Emperor Temple are believers in the Heavenly Court, and they worship the statue of the Jade Emperor, from another aspect, since these believers believe in the Jade Emperor, they are equivalent to the younger brother of the Jade Emperor, and they should be protected by the Jade Emperor.
Although this Jade Emperor Concept was established during the period of the former Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen, and the enshrinement was also the former Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen, but Zhang Zichen became the Jade Emperor, and the power of faith in the Jade Emperor Concept of the world will automatically bless Zhang Zichen's body, and it is also the cause and effect of the current Jade Emperor.
Now someone bullied him, a believer in the Jade Emperor, and smashed his temple, which is something that must not be tolerated.
Zhang Zichen didn't regard himself as the Jade Emperor at the moment, but more as the boss of a church gang, the younger brother was bullied, and when he was the boss, he naturally had to find a place for them.
"Bully my little brother?"
Zhang Zichen said indignantly in his heart, his realm has now reached a higher level, and some magic powers can also be used.
I saw that his mind moved, his hands pinched, and he quickly figured out who the few gangsters who smashed the Jade Emperor Temple, and even more calculated who the developer boss in the west of the city was.
"Walking, destination, Jade Emperor View!"
Zhang Zichen sat up and walked, and with an order, he was going to lead Lao Zhao and the others to the Jade Emperor Temple, of course, before going out, it was inevitable to report to the Queen Mother of the East, and suddenly let half of the majestic momentum go down.
The three of them soon arrived at the Jade Emperor Temple, which is a Taoist temple in the depths of the downtown area, and outside the door is a lively and noisy commercial pedestrian street, where people come and go, and it is very lively.
The Jade Emperor View is located at the end of this commercial street, with trees and onion cages inside, which is very quiet.
But this tranquility has a bit of a bleak meaning, unlike the lively streets and beautifully decorated shops outside, the Jade Emperor Temple reveals a kind of lonely decay from the inside out.
The walls and temples are mottled and crumbling, and they look almost in ruins.
It can be seen that this Jade Emperor Temple should not have been repaired for decades, and it is not difficult to understand this phenomenon in combination with the decline of incense.
Walking into the Jade Emperor Temple, Zhang Zichen found that the feeling inside and outside were different, although the Taoist temple was dilapidated, but it was very clean up and down.
The bluestone road is refreshing and refreshing, and there is no trace of dust and fallen leaves, so we can see that although this temple is ruined, the people in the temple are noble and elegant, and are not affected by foreign objects.
When Zhang Zichen came in, he saw a Taoist priest in his fifties cooking porridge in a pot in the open space outside the main hall, and another Taoist priest of the same age was kneeling on the ground, holding an older Taoist priest with a white beard in his arms.
The old Taoist priest was very weak, but he burst into tears, looked at the sky with his eyes, and said some words of repentance:
"The believers are incompetent and cannot protect the position of the ancestor god, causing the statue of the Jade Emperor to be desecrated, and the crime deserves death!"
It can be seen that the other two Taoist priests in their fifties are also sad and sad.
When he got closer, Zhang Zichen heard what the old Taoist priest said, and his eyes suddenly moistened.
In the era of the end of the law, most of the sentient beings lost their faith, but in the declining temples on this side, there were still believers in the heavenly court, and their beliefs were ruthlessly trampled on, and their bodies and minds were also bullied by capital, how helpless it was!
"Master, you see, it's the two good believers who helped us this afternoon!"
