Chapter 116: Grabbing the Lottery Ball
The whole theater-style preaching palace is a combination of ancient and modern architectural techniques, and although it is very different from the design drawings, it is more majestic and more exquisite.
The entire pulpit palace uses a lot of solar panels that can provide electricity to the entire pulpit palace. A dark chamber was dug deep underground, and a diesel generator with amplified power was installed to provide electricity at night. Especially deep underground, separated by more than ten meters, it can completely isolate noise. There will be no more sudden noises to be heard as before.
When Wen Fei preached at the Dharma meeting again, he could rely on the various sound effects in the preaching palace, but the effect was much stronger than that of the outdoor in the open air.
It's just that what Wen Fei didn't expect at all was that his crystal palace caused an unknown amount of effect. Imagine what a great shock a glittering glass building can cause in a world lit only by candles and oil lamps......
Almost at night, most of the city's population is drawn in. The Palace of Preaching was designed to accommodate more than 5,000 people at a time, but it could not accommodate such a large number of people in any case. In fact, if it is a little later, you don't have to go to Daxiangguo Temple, and all the intersections are blocked by crowded people.
Fortunately, Wen Fei didn't plan to preach every day, even if he was so diligent, but the electricity couldn't support it. He didn't want to be a porter, so he was busy carrying diesel fuel in modern times every day, and finally ended up with an overwork death......
Several merchants from Hebei were stunned to look at such a dream-like building that they had never even dreamed of. Everyone had straight legs and wanted to kneel on the ground. In fact. There are many believers who are kneeling in the direction of the crystal palace and constantly bowing and kowtowing.
There were even people who carried the patient who was paralyzed on the bed, dying. Carried to the vicinity, hoping to be illuminated by the colored light emitted by the crystal palace, it was thought that this colored light had a special divine power and could revive the patient......
Countless powers of faith floated in the air like flying flotsam, slowly turning into white mist and concentrating towards the Crystal Palace. It's dense, it's like a fog!
"I turn the virtuous into the virtuous and the ignorant into the foolish. Chen Niwan stood by a transparent glass, looking at the countless people and believers outside who were obsessed with kneeling and bowing, and muttered to himself: "My avenue is to teach those believers. Attached, detached. It seems that it is very contrary to the original intention of our Dao to make the people ignorant and superstitious in this way!"
Lin Lingsu, who was standing beside Chen Niwan, said with a smile: "Brother Dao thinks too much, in the past, my Taoism was not good, and those people went to believe in Buddhism. Now I am a Taoist monk. It is also appropriate for these people to believe in our Dao Law. What's more......" he sighed, "the matter of detachment from the Tao." It was originally the most difficult thing in the world, but how much can be accomplished throughout the ages? Only when my Taoism flourishes, opens up the blessed land, and protects these hundreds of millions of believers from the suffering of the cycle of life and death, it has already made immeasurable merits!"
Chen Niwan smiled bitterly: "How can I listen to you, but I feel like a Buddhist monk......
Lin Lingsu also smiled bitterly: "Since ancient times, although my avenue has a method of detachment. However, there is no convenient method to protect hundreds of millions of believers, so it has been suppressed by Buddhism! When you want to build your own Elysium, you should bless all the good believers. ”
The two chatted for a while, and then heard a Taoist boy come over to report in a low voice: "Two gentlemen, the time has come." Is it time to throw colored balls?"
Chen Niwan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is another method that the junior brother came up with, making the two of us like young ladies from a big family, throwing hydrangeas and picking sons-in-law...... But it's fair!"
As he spoke, he took the one handed by the boy and sewed it with leather, which looked quite like a keju, but there were many colorful feathers decorated on it, and it looked like a conspicuous colored ball. Smiled: "Let's have one by one!"
As he spoke, he threw it out of the window, he was a big master, and it seemed that he was just throwing it at random, but he threw it far away, far behind the crowd gathered at the gate of the Crystal Palace. happened to be picked up by the youngest among the few Hebei merchants.
He looked at the colored ball in his hand in amazement, and he didn't know what it meant. I saw that the nearby crowd was all around, looking at the colored ball in his hand with fierce eyes, and his eyes were full of longing and envy. Let this smallest merchant feel very uncomfortable.
Soon, a Taoist priest came over with a few officials lined up in the crowd and shouted, "Who grabbed the colored ball?"
The young merchant, who seemed to be in his teens, looked very young, and ducked behind an older merchant. The older man covered the young man behind him and said with a smile: "Everyone, my son is not sensible. You shouldn't mess with things......"
"Sanqing is above!" The Taoist priest pronounced a Buddha name and said with a smile: "This good believer doesn't need to panic, your son has a fate, and when he receives this colored ball, he can enter the preaching palace, see the Heavenly Master with his own eyes, and hear the Heavenly Master preach with his own ears." I don't know how many people can't ask for such a good thing!"
Several Hebei merchants were stunned, but they saw the Taoist priest stretching out his hand and leading: "This good letter who caught the colored ball, please come!"
The young merchant followed a few steps in a daze, and suddenly turned around and gave his father a big smile: "Daddy, I will definitely ask the Heavenly Master to bless me and cure my mother's illness!"
The surrounding spectators discussed: "It's really a filial son, no wonder there is such a fate, you can borrow color balls." It's really a blessing accumulated in the previous life, and I can enter the Crystal Palace in person. If I can enter the palace of the immortal family once, it will be worth dying immediately!"
Someone next to him immediately sneered: "Then you must have not accumulated virtue and done good deeds in your previous life!"
At first, the man laughed at himself: "Maybe it's because you don't do enough good, I heard that except for the one who received the colored ball." Even if the other princes and nobles want to enter the crystal palace to hear the sermon, they will need a thousand pieces of silver. How can our family have that blessing......"
"Yes, yes. These colored balls are thrown to us ordinary believers, and even if those princes want to enter the Crystal Palace to listen to the sermon, they have to pay money!"
Someone even continued: "Not only those princesses, even if the official family wanted to go in just now, they also gave enough money......
As he was talking, a cheer suddenly rang out from the crowd not far to the right: "I have received the colored ball, I have received the colored ball! I can go in and listen to the sermon......
The lively ones who were still foaming at the mouth just now suddenly became cold, and it took a while for someone to say sourly: "What good luck!" "The fastest way to read novels and read books,/book/dazhuzai/
