Chapter 56: Dunhuang's Reaction
The day after Abdul Wahab and his caravan arrived in Dunhuang, the "joke" of a "miracle" outside Mingsha Mountain spread throughout Dunhuang City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Mingsha Mountain is not far from Dunhuang, don't ride a horse for half an hour. Some may believe the caravan's words, but many more scoff at it. Either the people of the caravan were lying, or they were so bewitched by the "devil" that they hallucinated.
It's not like I haven't been to Mingsha Mountain, many people have been there not long ago! How can a barren hill with no grass grow overnight become a beautiful mountain forest with towering green trees and gushing springs? As for Taoist temples, it is even more unlikely. Is it so easy to build a Taoist temple? Recently, I haven't seen anyone come to Dunhuang City to hire craftsmen and buy building materials to cultivate Taoist temples! How did they cover it? Could it be that the unbelieving and lowly Han people who do not believe in Allah are secretly playing tricks, ignoring Allah's will on the Mingsha Mountain dozens of miles away, and the friendly persuasion of Mu Silin (call out the asterisk, don't mind) to build a pagan temple privately?
Perhaps the people in Dunhuang City can be used as caravan people telling jokes, but as the highest imam in the entire Dunhuang City. When the preacher Abdul Gahar heard the news, he did not take it as a joke or as a distant thing. He did not believe that as a believer in Allah, a successful big businessman would tell such a clumsy lie.
"Gudamai, you go and help me find the merchant who is rumored to have a pagan temple on Mingsha Mountain, and I have something to ask him. After you find it, you take two more people to ride to Mingsha Mountain to have a look, and then come back immediately and tell me the results. Abdul Gahar summoned his servant and bodyguard, Qudamah, and commanded.
"Okay, master. Your command is my mission," Gudamai replied at the command of his master. Then he took his sword and went out.
As a servant of the Imam in the city, it was easy to find a merchant. Gudamah didn't have to look for it himself. As long as the news spreads, it is natural that countless people will be willing to immediately leave their work behind and help find it. In a few moments, Abd al-Wahab and his companions came to Abd al-Gahar.
"Noble Imam, may Allah (Allah) give you peace!" Abdul Wahab and a group of businessmen who were traveling with him immediately bowed down and greeted Abdul Gahar. As a follower of Allah, it is indeed a glorious time to be summoned by the Great Imam.
"The peace that Allah gives is in me and in you." After replying with a slight greeting, Abdul Gahar asked directly: "You said that you saw the Taoist temple on Mingsha Mountain not far from here, and it has become an oasis?" ”
"Truly, respected Imam, we can swear in the name of Allah that we are not lying." Abdul Wahab immediately replied respectfully.
When Abdul Gahar heard this, his face was very serious, and he did not speak for a long time. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Then tell me what happened to you!" I need to know a little bit about it. ”
"Yes, my lordship!" Abdul Wahab naturally did not dare to refuse, and immediately recounted everything that happened yesterday, and the businessman next to him also added a few words from time to time. Abdul Gahar's brow furrowed.
"Are you sure you're not seeing a fantasy in the desert?" Abdul Gahar asked.
Everything is incredible, how can a barren hill of sand and gravel turn into a verdant mountain forest in such a short period of time, even if there is a mountain spring there, it will not form an oasis in such a short time, let alone in this cold season.
If what these people say is true, then that Taoist temple cannot exist even more. This is the land that Allah given to all ******, how can there be a pagan temple?
"Go back first! Do not be deceived by the devil, for the only destination for Kafir's destination is Hellfire. Not only have you entered the temple of the heathen, but you have spoken too many praises to them. Nothing is Allah, so remember Allah's teachings and do not slack off! Abdul Gahar concluded, with a stern warning,
"Yes, yes, yes! We will certainly not be deceived by the devil and will always be the most faithful servants of Allah. When Abdul Wahab's group heard Abdul Gahar's warning, they were immediately frightened into a cold sweat and hurriedly promised to arrive. It wasn't until Abdul Gahar waved his hand that he carefully said goodbye and left. When I left, I couldn't even walk steadily.
"Shouldn't we tell the story of Mingsha Mountain?" Abdul Wahab asked his companion a little worried.
"But if we don't tell, they'll know!" The companion replied.
"Also, I can only hope that Allah is merciful and that the Great Imam can forgive that Taoist temple later." When Abdul Wahab finished speaking, there was silence. I hope so, but when this thing comes to this, what can they do?
Half an hour later, Gu Damai returned to Dunhuang City, and before he had time to wash off the sand on his face, he ran directly to Abdul Gahar and said, "Master, Mingsha Mountain has indeed become a mountain forest, and there is a pagan temple on it. ”
Abdul Gahar nodded after hearing this and said, "It's hard work, you go down first!" I'm going to talk to the other Acrees. You go and help me get them. ”

In the quiet room in the backyard of the Mingsha Mountain Taoist Temple, Lichen is meditating. Suddenly, I became vigilant and woke up in an instant. After pinching his fingers. Wei Ran sighed: "The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, why bother to send it to the door yourself!" ”
After sighing, he didn't do anything. Still meditating as if nothing had just happened.
Presumably, the Han people in Dunhuang City were obviously much more sluggish. Occasionally, they ask each other about it, but it's just a gonzo. No one is in the mood to go so far dozens of miles away to see what is going on. Compared to Musilin, Hermes-Epitek is much more peaceful towards religion, and rarely regards the gods as the whole of their lives, except for their ancestors.
In the Qing (Harmony) Mosque, after several Akron led the believers to do today's prayer class, they were all invited together by Abdul Wahab. Begin to deliberate about what to do with the pagan temple that pops up out of nowhere?
The Apros are not ordinary believers in the ecstasy below, and they have to think more about it in comparison.
What is the origin of that Taoist temple, is there a Ming official mansion standing behind it. If you knock on the door, will you be misunderstood by the government, and will it cause any disaster?
The prostrate people have been silent for a long time, and the trade-offs must be thought out clearly!
"O you who believe! Strike down the disbelievers that are near you, and make them feel your severity. You know, Allah is with the self-denying" After a man suddenly chanted a verse, he suddenly laughed and said: "Perhaps, we can do it to others, and the government will not find us on our heads." ”
