Chapter 3 Glass Statue

In the next three days, Bright Sky Rose spread all over the entire Lanruo Temple, connecting all the animals and plants in the entire temple, and then, Chen Xiang evenly moistened every animal and plant with his true qi, making the entire Lanruo Temple like his doppelganger.

There are four creatures in Lanruo Temple, one is an old vole in his thirties, which is the first mouse to show intelligence to Chen Xiang, and the other is a forty-one-year-old sparrow, which is also very clever, but he still has some kind of wariness of Chen Xiang, and the last one is actually a seventeen-year-old earthworm, although the body contains a good aura, but it has not yet given birth to spiritual intelligence, but it is just a stronger, big earthworm the size of a cauliflower snake. The last one is a lotus flower in the pond of Lanruo Temple, this lotus flower is actually three thousand years old, but it has not yet given birth to any spiritual intelligence, and the aura is also very ordinary, which makes Chen Xiang feel very strange, but he doesn't know much about the formation of monsters, so he doesn't pay attention to it.

These four guys will be the focus of Chen Xiang's development, and every day Chen Xiang will use his true qi to nourish the tricks of these four little guys, wash their tendons and cut the marrow over and over again, and want to cultivate them as soon as possible. But obviously, this work can not be completed overnight, if you want to cultivate new monsters as soon as possible, it will still take a long time, anyway, this Lanruo Temple has completely become Chen Xiang's territory, as long as he is willing, he can spend his true qi on these small animals all day long, and keep nourishing them, so that they can become monsters as soon as possible. Nevertheless, the vole and the sparrow were already at his disposal, and he could command them like a puppy.

The days passed so peacefully, and on this day, another outsider came to this Lanruo Temple, which was also a scholar. He looks handsome and has a calm temperament, which is very much in line with the appearance of a good scholar. He very politely held the firewood and looked at the ancient Zen temple hidden in the dense forest and grass.

Xu Ziling happened to be working nearby, and after hearing the knock on the door, he went to the door to open the door.

Standing in the door, Xu Ziling asked, "Who is here?" Why did you come to our Lanruo Temple? ”

The scholar outside the door also carried a bookcase on his back, which was made of thumb-thick bamboo as a skeleton, and coarse cloth as the surface to make a box that was high for one person, and on top of it was a simple awning about the size of a book. Covering the scholar's head, it is obvious that in this bookcase, there is the scholar's change of clothes and books, which are for him to study.

"My name is Ning Caichen, I am a person from the neighborhood, I came to Jinhua to study, because I am shy in my pocket, I can't live in the city for a long time, and I can't stand the hustle and bustle of the city. So I want to find a quieter place nearby to study with peace of mind, and I happen to see that your temple is quiet and far away, which is really suitable for me, so I take the liberty of asking. Don't know if you can stay overnight? I'm willing to pay some money...... It's just not too much......"

Xu Ziling is also a humble gentleman, seeing this scholar so polite, he also likes it in his heart, and a strong surge suddenly swells in his heart to tear the throat of this young man. The desire to suck his blood fiercely, fortunately, he was very determined in his heart, and quickly suppressed this sudden desire. With a faint smile, after opening the firewood and inviting him in, he said: "Brother Ning, please come in first, this temple is presided over by my eldest brother, although I have the heart to keep you, but I must ask him first, it's better to do this, Brother Ning will come with me to meet my eldest brother!" ”

Ning Caichen nodded, and calmly walked towards the inside of the temple with Xu Ziling, as early as when Ning Caichen appeared, Chen Xiang and Yan Chixia had already felt it, Chen Xiang's heart moved, and he seemed to be a little surprised, because this Ning Caichen's luck was very upright, full of a sense of fortitude, and at the same time, there was a hint of red luck in it, which showed that his official position in this life could reach the county level, and it was a good seed for reading.

In Yan Chixia's eyes, this Ning Caichen is white-haired, showing that he is a pure reader who has read the books of sages and cultivated a heroic spirit, and he can't help but appreciate it very much, and while appreciating it, he also secretly has a vigilance, wanting to protect this young man and be thorough, and he must not be damaged in the hands of these monsters.

After Ning Caichen put forward his request, Chen Xiang was already prepared in his heart, and said: "Brother Ning, the small temple is tired, the incense is insufficient, but the rice and vegetables can be self-sufficient, we don't need any entanglement and money, we just need Brother Ning to pious worship for us every day on a pillar of incense, if we can promote more of our bright Arhats' beliefs, it would be even better!" ”

When Ning Caichen heard about this so-called Bright Arhat for the first time, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned and said, "This ...... I don't know much about your gods...... It's really a bit ...... to pay tribute to the incense."

Chen Xiang smiled, took out a volume of Bright Bible, and handed it to Ning Caichen, this Bright Bible is printed out of modern white paper and printing, very clean and neat, and the layout is proper, very exquisite, Ning Caichen received this Bright Bible, he was very surprised, you must know that in this era, it is very difficult to buy a book with beautiful engraving and no mistakes at all, and the price is very expensive, and you can't buy a good book without a few dollars of silver.

Therefore, every reader has different degrees of reading hunger, and is more eager to read any fresh print than modern people squatting in the toilet, and has a strong preference for every beautifully printed book!

Ning Caichen swallowed his saliva dryly, like a big pervert seeing a stripped beauty! Hurriedly but extremely gently, he took this snow-white book, and began to read it hungrily!

This bright Bible is written by the top talents in several worlds, and after more than 30 major revisions and discussions, especially the important contributions of many demon masters in the Tang Dynasty Shuanglong Biography, there is finally the current version, with the equality of all beings as the main concept, with the Xiangwang Hou Ning as the main argument, and the Buddhist karma as the theoretical support, the new interpretation of the interests and inferiority, and the promotion of relying on their own hard work to strive for a happy life in this life.

These ideas are all based on the content of Buddhism and historians, and there is nothing strange about it, but the conclusions deduced are earth-shattering, overthrowing the Confucian etiquette and humility for thousands of years, and giving the poor people a new path at once!

These theories are particularly in line with the ideas of the people at the bottom, and Ning Caichen happens to be a poor scholar, who has been very uncomfortable suppressed by this class society. As soon as I read this book, I was deeply shocked by the ideas in it, and I have deeply accepted this set of ideas, and began to progress in the direction of Mingjiao.

Just after reading the first few pages of the Bright Bible in a hurry, Ning Caichen couldn't wait to continue reading, and immediately agreed: "Okay, no problem!" I will sincerely offer incense to the Bright Arhat every day, and I will also spread these thoughts to my classmates at the right time, so that the Bright Arhat's incense will flourish again! ”

Yan Chixia was not as easy to fool and deceive as Ning Caichen, and said solemnly: "Wait! What a light arhat. Why haven't I heard of it? If it's a false god, then you can't worship it! If you worship, you will lose your own good fortune! ”

Chen Xiang said with a smile: "Mr. Yan, let me ask you, all the righteous gods in the world, but did the heaven and earth exist when they were first born?" If this god and Buddha are really beneficial to the people, why not let the people worship? For the way of God, there is no such narrowness as you! ”

Ning Caichen has been fascinated by the ideas in the Ming Sect, and he just wants to read this beautifully bound Bright Bible. He didn't have the time to argue with anyone, so he said, "You have all right, but I have to read the following Bible carefully before I can do it." How do I know if this deity is good for mortals? As he spoke, he took this bright bible in his hand, and Xu Ziling took him to the renovated house next to him, and settled down as quickly as he could. Then he began to devote himself enthusiastically to the study of the Light Bible.

Chen Xiang smiled faintly. said to Yan Chixia: "Whether a way is right or not depends on whether passers-by are willing to walk it, and whether a river is the mainstream." It depends on whether the stream is willing to join it. Now Brother Ning has begun to judge whether this god and Buddha of the Bright Arhat is worthy of devotion and worship. I have other light Bibles here, I wonder if Mr. Yan is interested in studying and choosing them? ”

Yan Chixia was secretly vigilant in her heart, knowing that this group of demons and monsters liked to devour people's blood and eat people's hearts and livers the most, there was no ordinary person in this Lanruo Temple before, so they were still in peace, but now that this ordinary person lives in Lanruo Temple, it is like a drop of cold water injected into a hot oil pot, which will definitely cause an uproar!

No, you must inform this young man of the danger, otherwise, this excellent scholar is very likely to die without knowing how he died!

Faced with Chen Xiang's inquiry, Yan Chixia's heart was full of doubts, and Chen Xiang smiled again: "Since Mr. Yan is already scared, then I will no longer be reluctant." ”

Yan Chixia said angrily: "Where would I be afraid!" Isn't it just a scripture?! That scholar is not afraid, what do I have to be afraid of! I'd like to see what's going on in a book! After speaking, he snatched a bright Bible from Chen Xiang's hand.

After returning to her room, Yan Chixia didn't have time to look through the bright Bible, but lay on her bed sullenly, the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and the more uneasy she became, she still wanted to save the life of the nerdy scholar.

Yan Chixia walked to Ning Caichen's room, knocked on the door, and asked directly, "Brother Ning, do you know about monsters?" Ning Caichen was reading the bright Bible, and when he saw this sturdy black-faced scholar asking, he couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and asked, "Why did this brother say this?" Yan Chixia didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "There is an old saying: "If the valley of Zhongshan, the monster thing, is not the so-called Tianxiang." "Generally speaking, for a long time, self-channeling and intelligent creatures may become monsters. The saying that plants and trees become essence is "vine spirit tree monster", this truth also comes from the Taoist yang god can be "gathered into shape, scattered is zero", and even into essence including stones, anything with aura can be changed and formed. But although the formation of monsters is very interesting, the results after their formation are not very happy, because for their own cultivation and survival, these monsters will eat people's hearts and livers, drink people's blood, and some will also absorb the souls of enslaved mortals, so that people will never be able to turn over! ”

Ning Caichen shrugged his eyebrows, and the sense of vigilance in his heart had risen, because although he was still inexperienced, he also knew that the liars in the rivers and lakes were particularly fond of sensationalism, scaring people with ethereal but unfalsifiable things, and waiting until the two wars that the victim was afraid of, and then let the victim "break the fortune and eliminate the disaster". Fraudulently taking money from others.

Originally, I thought that this black-faced scholar was also upright, and he shouldn't be a bad person, who would have thought that he was also a liar? Ning Caichen couldn't help but spit on Yan Chixia a little in his heart, and said with a cold face on his face: "Such monsters are also rare, I don't think there will be any monsters in this temple land, otherwise this benevolent brother would not have lived until now." So I'm still not afraid. I'm going to take a bath and rest, so please stay away from this brother for a while! ”

When Yan Chixia heard that Ning Caichen actually regarded him as a liar, she was angry and anxious in her heart, and said, "I don't cheat you out of your money!" I just want to save your life! If you think about it for yourself, this temple is so big. Why are there only a few monks who are not monks, and the temples that are not vulgar and unorthodox are here? Why is there no incense at all? If you don't believe me, if you have time to go to Jinhua City and ask, did I lie to you! I put this sword bag here with you, and if something happens, it can save your life, so that I can learn to save you sooner! As he spoke, he couldn't help but say, and hung an old sword bag on Ning Caichen's bedside. Turned and left his room.

Ning Caichen touched the old sword bag, and felt that there was a palpitating murderous aura in it, and he instinctively felt a little afraid, but the aura of Haoran was stirring up again. Standing in his heart, I thought that I have my own heroic righteousness, no matter what demons and monsters I am not afraid of! After cheering himself up again, Ning Caichen began to look through the bright Bible that told the miraculous truth.

By the next day, Ning Caichen had finished reading the Light Bible all night with the help of the oil lamp in the incense hall. He has become a devout disciple of the Light Arhats! In particular, all scholars should understand history and look at it against history. The truth in this Bright Bible is the true truth, so he lit three incense sticks very religiously and offered incense to the Bright Arhat Buddha statue in the main hall.

And this Bright Arhat Buddha statue is a virtual shadow compiled by the Bright Golden Pagoda with the runes on his body and Bright Sky Rose, shrouded in the original Buddha statue of Shakyamuni, which has been dilapidated, and it is not a real image!

Suddenly, in Chen Xiang's silent and cold heart, a faint but never dissipated cigarette rose, and he sighed very satisfied, just like drinking a large cup of hot milk tea in the cold winter, and felt that his heart was still much more comfortable.

At the same time, among Ning Caichen's originally somewhat thin luck, some of them were allocated and pinned on the Buddha statue of the Bright Arhat, which made Ning Caichen's own luck thinner, seeing this scene, Yan Chixia snorted coldly, and Chen Xiang was surprised, this Ning Caichen's own quality is very good, and his luck is also quite high, which is enough to become a county order's luck, if you want to quickly gain a foothold in this world, then the best way is to find a spokesperson, can speak for himself in the world of normal people, this Ning Caichen is the spokesperson he has chosen!

If his luck is insufficient, and in the end, he will not be able to do things well, and he will not even be able to achieve his original achievements, it will be a very huge loss for Chen Xiang! Chen Xiang didn't want this to happen either! After seeing this happening, Chen Xiang found Ergou in a private occasion and told Ergou about what he saw today, Ergou is a senior grass-headed god who has a deep understanding and attainment of these mortal things.

After listening to Chen Xiang's speech, Ergou narrowed his eyes, thought carefully, and said: "Master, you must know that everything in this world is balanced, a little more in this place, a little less in that place, and nothing can ever be created out of thin air." Now this luck is only us and Ning Caichen, I am like a low-lying area, Ning Gongzi is like a mountain and flowing water, his luck is naturally going to flow to us, if you want to make up for Ning Gongzi's luck, or even supplement his luck, it is no wonder to take the technique of Heavenly Dao, and make up for the deficiency! And if we want to make more incense in our temples, one is to find those who are not originally worshipping gods and Buddhas to worship us, and the other way is to attract believers from other temples to worship us, which is also indispensable to compete. If we want to make those ordinary people think that our temples are more effective than other temples, can give the government here more profits and smoothly govern the people, then we can compete with others. We have some advantages in this regard, but we can't be hostile to the local gods at all, so it is also important to obtain the approval of the local gods. For example, to become the land god of this land, or to become a city god, or to become an ancestor worshiped in the ancestral hall, you can do it.

And luck is nothing more than wealth and manpower, or popularity, as long as there is wealth, there is influence, then luck will naturally come, in addition, if you get the canonization of the official position of the government, you will also have luck, but these luck are obtained from the dynasty, can only be regarded as a temporary loan, and once the official position is gone, luck will naturally disappear. If you only need to start from these places, you will naturally be able to get luck.

The other is to stimulate luck. That is, this person should have had a lot of luck in his life, but it was evenly distributed in every period of his life, so life seemed plain and bland, but it was peaceful. But if he can stimulate his luck, he can make him consume some luck, and in a period of time, he will instantly burst out of eight or seven points of luck, and he will go on great luck, but in the end, he will lose his luck in the second half of his life, and finally die of poverty. If this kind of person can get the support of other luck in the future, he can still make up for it after a few years of interest rate cuts, which is like borrowing usury to do business, once he wins, he will get rich, but if he loses, he may not even be able to save his life! ”

After listening to Ergou's words, Chen Xiang also fell into contemplation, he really didn't expect that there were so many Taos in this god-worshipping luck, it seemed that he still needed to plan well.

The next day, Chen Xiang stopped Ning Caichen from continuing to worship the Light Arhat, but asked him to work together and build a small cave as quickly as possible, and then Chen Xiang asked Ning Caichen to purchase some clean river sand on his behalf, and burned and refined it with holy fire in this small cave.

Yes, Chen Xiang is to refine glass, he knows that there is already glass in this world, it is a kind of precious items such as agate-like gemstone ornaments, although the value is not comparable to gold, but it can also be compared to the same weight of silver, but this technology is monopolized in the hands of a few people, so it has no price.

Although Jinhua City has been washed by several wars and its population has been greatly reduced, its economy is still very prosperous, and valuable items such as glass can still be consumed.

Chen Xiang's holy flame is taken from the firepower in his own golden pill, as early as when the foundation was built, Chen Xiang used the energy of the light nuclear fusion reactor, which is comparable to the temperature of the sun, up to hundreds of millions of degrees, how can it not even be fired in glass? On the contrary, Chen Xiang had to carefully control the temperature so that the temperature in the kiln was not too high, and all the clean river sand was burned and evaporated!

After a night of hard work, Chen Xiang finally succeeded in making a colorful glass Guanyin statue, but this Guanyin statue is not wearing a monk's costume, but a Taoist costume, this Guanyin statue intercepted Chen Xiang's understanding of the Cihang Pudu Sutra, and also integrated a phantom of the pure heart mantra rune in it, which can be said to be vivid, and has a charm that people have to admire!

Chen Xiang even transformed the Buddha statue in the main hall into the image of Cihang Daoist, that is, the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva when he had not yet turned from the Tao to Buddha, and it is also the source of inheritance of the Jinxian Avenue that Chen Xiang is walking now, so it is not a transgression.

Under the shroud of the Bright Sky Rose and the Bright Runes of the Golden Pagoda, this statue of the Cihangdao people is very sacred, full of power that makes people feel calm and happy.

And in the side hall, it is the statue of Chen Xiang's own Bright Venerable, which is also a divine light, which makes people feel high and full of positive energy when they see it. (To be continued......)
