Section 106 The west wind is gradual
may have been frightened by the hawker's rhetoric, a few old Taoist priests who had seen the wind and waves actually held the teacup and held it, and the hot tea burned to the chest before reacting, and quickly beat it with his hands, and he didn't forget to ask, "Senior brother, don't be joking, live for forty or fifty thousand people, where is there such a big Taoist temple?" ”
The peddler puffed his cigarette and said, "Is forty or fifty thousand a lot?" We have a lot of universities, not as big as yours, can't we still crowd down to 70,000 or 80,000 people? Everything is only what you can't think of, there is nothing you can't do, the cement and steel bars I brought have also heard of it, and we will build a Taoist temple in the future and take that thing to cover, hey hi like a hungry sin mother [Ihaveedream!], to build the highest Taoist temple in the world, the light steps have to be 10,000 steps, and resolutely do not install elevators! No matter who you have to climb, what is this called, this is piety!"
The peddler shouted Martin's quote to the sun with a teacup, and the sun shone on his face, as if he had descended to a god, but if you saw this scene, you would definitely say, "Death of a turtle!" Sure enough, the enthusiasm of the summer sun kept the glorious image of the hawker for less than two seconds, and he had to stay cool!
Find a cool place to sit down, and the vendor looked at Elder Wang, "By the way, uncle, didn't I tell you last time that some religions in the West use only one scripture to generalize many believers?" At that time, you still didn't believe it, but today I brought you their scriptures, and I will take a look at them, brothers! As he spoke, he took out the Bible and the Koran from his bag and handed them to the people seated.
"There are still a few people who remember that these books are absolutely not allowed to be passed on at the moment, and they are only available to a few people who think that they are absolutely loyal to the Daomen!" It is not unreasonable for the hawker to give such a cautious explanation, because the earliest Christian God in history should be introduced to the Celestial Empire. The founder of Silan is still alive and well, this product has already brought other people's scriptures, in order to avoid trouble, it is better to be cautious!
A few people nodded, after getting the book, the first time to open it to read, to say that the cultural exchange between the East and the West in these years is indeed a problem, unlike the east wind and the west wind in later generations, if it comes together, it will become a tornado, the people who blow it lose their minds, the hawkers drink tea leisurely, a few people look at it and frown, sure enough, as they think, a traditional Taoist person, the first time he sees this strange monotheism in the West, it seems that he is disgusted!
Liu Shuqing suddenly raised his head, "Dabao, I don't know this word!" ”
"Poof" I don't know you said earlier, I hurt myself for a long time, the vendor quickly put down the tea, "Bring it to me, I'll help you read a passage first, in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth, the earth is empty and chaotic, the abyss is dark, and the spirit of God runs on the water..."
"How about Uncle Shi, are you familiar with the content of this scripture?"
Wang Laodao opened his mouth, "This, this is also a scripture?" “
"Uncle Shi, look at what you said is not a scripture, you see how interesting it is written!"
"I'm phew" the old man was angry, "We three-year-old children know that heaven and earth were born in chaos, I don't know that hundreds of millions of years were born Pangu, Pangu opened the world, the pure qi rose and turned into the sky, the turbid gas sank into the earth, and Pangu's eyes turned into the moon and the sun after his death, these are all common sense things in our place, is anyone reading these in the scriptures?" “
The peddler nodded awkwardly, "There are really a lot of people watching this, Uncle Shi, you think, our Taoist scriptures always make some obscure language, don't you mind if I say a word of punishment, how much literacy do we have in Datang?" And how many of those literate people are willing to study our scriptures, whether they can be promoted and rich, or can they solve doubts and doubts? “
Senior brother Wang Xingzong took over the conversation, "Senior brother, if the scriptures are written simply and everyone can easily understand, then there will be more people who are rising in the daytime, which does not meet the requirements of heaven's selection of gods!" “
The peddler pouted him, and he hadn't figured it out yet! Still thinking about the ascension of the day, don't you look at how many people can soar from ancient times to the present" Senior brother, I don't dare to agree, I only know that all living beings are equal, I think the gods have already set all kinds of heavenly laws, as for who to discover that it can be pursued completely by creation, not by basic scriptures, it must require the efforts of all sentient beings, so the simpler the scriptures, the better, for example, if the previous scriptures are studied after the ascension rate is one-tenth, but only 10,000 people can learn, then the result is that only 1,000 people can ascend, If the scriptures are simple, and the ascension rate is one in a thousand, but if the whole Datang can learn it, then there may be 10,000 people who will soar in the future, which is more than 10,000 or 1,000, and the account of senior brother can still be calculated! “
Senior Brother Wang was stunned for a while, "Dabao, your algorithm is a novelty, but it is difficult to make everyone in the Tang Dynasty have a Taoist scripture, and I am afraid that it will cost tens of thousands of dollars, where can we find so much money?" “
"Senior brother, remember one sentence, the problems that money can solve are not called problems, and we didn't expect to let the Tang Dynasty have a scripture in their hands all of a sudden, the meal should be eaten one bite at a time, and the road should be taken step by step, do you see that Kong Laoer's thought has also developed to the present achievement after nearly a thousand years, so don't worry, the thing in front of you is to refer to these two scriptures, and synthesize our myths and legends, you also try to improve a comprehensive scripture, this one will be given to the people to see, you think, The stories that a person has listened to since childhood are all mythical characters of our Taoism, so which religion will he believe in when he grows up? “
Grandpa Deng taught us to start with the doll, the hawker thinks that if you have been exposed to the myths and stories of Pangu opening the world and Nuwa creating people since childhood, in the future, you will tell him about the creation of heaven and earth by many gods, he still doesn't believe it at the root, don't believe it, ask the people around you, believe that Pangu opened the world or believe in the Western gods and understand!
"What the junior brother said is all the same way, but what about the scriptures written by the sages before our Daomen? Don't you want to study in the future? “
The peddler sighed, you look at one of the shortcomings of the Chinese people and it has appeared again, that is, overkill, everything is either black or white, not left or right, either holding back and not letting you live or encouraging you to have a few more "Don't, I just said, the simple one is for ordinary people to see, if someone is really interested in the Taoist scriptures, then directly pull in for further study, then the time will need those obscure scriptures for their reference, so this needs another reform of our Daomen, what about the future, Taoist priests should be divided into professional and amateur, professional is specialized in the study of the great truth, amateur just understand a little bit, how to get it later, you first read through the scriptures of these other religions, let's talk, no matter how much you say now, it's useless! “
In fact, this reform was later done, that is, the bullish Wang Chongyang did it, he divided the Taoist priest into a monk Taoist priest and a fire Taoist priest, it is estimated that he learned from the monk after the Tang monk came back from the scriptures, after all, this time whether the monk or the Taoist priest is not a monk, but later the monk played six pure tricks, so that the number of believers in the world multiplied, Lao Wang saw that this is not good, so let's learn a little, so we came up with the rules of Taoism that we are familiar with later, but this will say that this is a bit ahead, The hawker is afraid that this group of people will not be able to accept it, so it is better to take it slow.
PS: What time is it today?
