Chapter 192: To Believe or Not to Believe
In the next 2010, the government will renovate the Xiangshan Temple, and on this vacant land, two magnificent halls and two large squares will be built, which will become another center of the Xiangshan Temple.
The four of them passed the Land Temple, and then looked at the Yuantong Hall and the Guanyin Temple, and finally saw the Wuliang Hall located on the high platform. It enshrines the Buddha of Amitayus, which is the absolute center of Xiangshan Temple. From a distance, there are many good men and women standing by the huge incense burner in front of the Immeasurable Palace, inserting the equally huge incense in their hands into the incense burner.
"Let's go, let's burn incense and worship the Buddha and pray for blessings!" Zhao Xiaoshi said excitedly, and pulled the other two girls to run to the Boundless Hall. Looking at the backs of the three girls in the distance, Tang Chen smiled and walked forward with them. Although he still doesn't believe in these things in this life, but at this time, the interest of the three girls is so high, he will not sweep away their interest.
Besides, isn't it just a matter of pouring incense and kneeling down to worship the Buddha, and it won't lose a piece of meat, so why not be "willful" with the three girls?
Followed by the three girls on the high platform, came to a place that sold incense next to the platform in front of the Wuliang Temple, bought four large incense sticks that were half a meter long and the thickness of a little finger, and walked towards the incense burner in the middle. It's not free, it's all about money.
In fact, some of these merchants can make a lot of money a year by selling incense and so-called souvenirs with "Dharma blessings". Especially during the "Three Major Festivals", it is crowded here, and it is difficult to make money or not.
There are gold and silver ingots in the incense burner that others have not burned just now, and the four of them light the incense one by one, and then stand in a row, silently make a wish in their hearts, and insert the incense into the incense burner after bowing three times.
"What wishes have you all made?" After burning incense, Zhang Haiyun, who was the most "gossipy", looked at everyone and said.
"If you can't say it, it won't work if you say it!" Zhao Xiaoshi said a little speechlessly.
"Yes, don't ask, why don't you sue us first?" Huang Qingya also glanced at her mouth.
"Tang Chen. What wish did you make?" Zhang Haiyun saw that her attack on the other two girls failed, so she pointed the finger at Tang Chen. Her long eyelashes flickered, and she was very cute.
"If you sue me first, I will sue you. Of course, Tang Chen will not be "confused" by her cuteness. So a quid pro quo was proposed.
"Hmph, don't talk about it!" Of course, Zhang Haiyun wouldn't tell Tang Chen, so he pouted and said a word, turned around and walked towards the Infinite Palace, leaving the three of them looking at each other.
"Wow. Come here, I found something very interesting!" Zhang Haiyun, who had just left and had not walked a few steps, suddenly stood in front of a stall selling incense and waved at them.
Tang Chen and the three of them walked over and found a piece of red paper pasted in front of the stall, and after a few people took a look, they knew why Zhang Haiyun was so excited.
It turned out that this was a place that sold lucky bags, but this was not an ordinary lucky bag. This lucky bag is a red triangular cloth bag with a red string that can be hung around the neck. These are very average, nothing special.
But it can write your wishes here. Then put it into the blessing bag, and then enter the immeasurable hall to worship the Buddha and pray for blessings, and then come out and seal the blessing bag with the needle and thread prepared here. In this way, this lucky bag becomes very meaningful. Because this blessing bag can be asked for for oneself or for others.
Think about it, if you can ask for a lucky bag for someone you like or have a crush on, write what you want to say to him in it, and give it to him. Even if he never knows the secret he hides inside, that's a different kind of sustenance, isn't it?
Lucky bags can still be played like this, why haven't you heard of it in your previous life? Tang Chen was a little surprised. In his previous life, he said that he was not interested in these. It's also a pleasure to come here. But since there is such a stalk, he doesn't know anything about it, right? But that's the case, in his previous life, he only knew that he could ask for a blessing bag here, and he didn't know that he could also stuff a note inside. And I haven't heard it from my classmates or friends.
Tang Chen remembered that when he was in high school, there was a girl who seemed to give him such a lucky bag on his birthday, saying that it could keep him safe. But he didn't pay attention to it at the time, and he didn't know that there was still a note in it. Could it be that everyone who knows it is keeping it secret, or that there was no such thing in the previous life?
It's a shame to say. Since Tang Chen never believed in these in his previous life, and he didn't pay attention to this, he didn't seem to have brought that lucky bag with him. Thinking about it now, it's really a shame to be so hard at home. Even if you don't know if there is a note in the lucky bag, it's someone else's heart, isn't it? Compared to those rag dolls, notebooks, or gloves, scarves and other gifts, this is the most attentive, isn't it?
"Well, this is fun! How much does it cost to be a boss?" Zhao Xiaoshi deserved to be the girl who was called the two "playful" flying girls with Zhang Haiyun, and immediately asked about the price.
"Three dollars a piece!" replied the owner, a woman in her thirties, with a smile on her face.
"Oh, it's not very expensive, or we want four, write our wishes into it!" Zhao Xiaoshi turned her head and said with a shiny look in her eyes.
"Okay!" Zhang Haiyun needless to say, she was the first to raise her hand in agreement.
Huang Qingya's eyes flickered, and she agreed.
"Hmm!" Tang Chen said, and then directly took out twelve yuan and handed it to the boss. In fact, he thinks it's good that this lucky bag can be played like this. Although they are all asking for themselves at the moment, it does not affect their enthusiasm at all.
In a few years, it doesn't matter what our respective lives are like, and it doesn't matter if our wishes come true today. If your lucky bag is still there, when you see it, you can't help but giggle when you think of you today, right?
The four of them took the lucky bags and wrote their wishes one by one with the pen and small notes prepared by the boss. During this period, when Tang Chen wrote, Zhang Haiyun still wanted to peek at it, but Tang Chen didn't show her. This made the little girl very dissatisfied, and she kept muttering in her mouth, probably scolding him.
Several people came to the immeasurable hall, there were many futons in it, and each of the four took one, and knelt down on the main hall together. Looking at the three girls beside him who closed their eyes and prayed seriously, Tang Chen couldn't help but correct his attitude and prayed seriously.
Believe it or not, the Buddha is here. Faith, Buddha in the heart. Don't believe it, the Buddha is in the temple. Either you don't do it, or you already worship it, you have to be serious! This is Tang Chen's code of conduct!
After praying, the four of them bowed three more times, then exited the Immeasurable Hall and came to the incense boss. Zhang Haiyun and Zhao Xiaoshi were the most active, and they ran over together to seal them with needles and threads. (To be continued.) )
