At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 254 Building the most effective temple in history 【Subscription】

Among the crowd, Qianmian practiced Buddhism hard in order to fool Luoyang officials...

Although it is not superb, it is much better than everyone else.

"Your Dharma name Yuanji at White Horse Temple can no longer be used. When you get here, use a new Dharma name." Xu Mu thought for a while.

Qian Mian clasped his palms together, with an indifferent attitude: "Please grant the title of the Dharma, my lord."

Since practicing Buddhism, to be honest, Qian Mian's mentality has indeed changed a lot.

Peace of mind, no struggle and no desire.

Xu Mu glanced at him, only a few months, a person has changed so much...

We can see the horror of Buddhism.

Chanting scriptures day and night, the effect of brainwashing is astonishing.

"Your Dharma name is called Dharma Difficulty. It is up to you to set off this Dharma Difficulty."

With his hands behind his back, Xu Mu turned around and looked at the line of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas around the main hall...

For the Buddha, he said something that was rebellious and immoral.

……

After the host of Xianyou Temple was confirmed, Xu Mu began to recruit monks.

He originally wanted Qin Shubao and all the special soldiers he taught to be ordained, to be like Shaolin monks or something.

But Qin Shubao and others vowed to die.

It means that the body, hair and skin are received by parents and dare not damage them.

Xu Mu also knew the importance of hair in this era, so he didn't force it, and asked Fan Zhu to find a group of people who wanted to become monks...

Guide them into Xianyou Temple.

In this era, people who have read books pay more attention to hair.

But the common people are different.

For them, as long as they enter the temple, they will have free fasting meals every day, and they can also be exempted from corvees and taxes...

For those people who can't survive, joining a temple is the best destination.

Anyway, they can't even afford a wife, so they just join the temple, abide by the three rules and six precepts, and stay with the ancient Buddha with green lanterns for the rest of their lives.

After preparing all the necessary monks...

Xu Mu began to pretend to be... ahem, a miracle was created.

For a traveler, creating a miracle is not difficult at all.

……

In Chang'an City, all major temples stopped construction.

Li Yuan's attitude was extremely ambiguous.

After all the temples have entered the gloom.

With the appearance of miracles one after another, coupled with the entrustment of Fan Zhu's employment, he continued to build momentum in Chang'an City, and the reputation of Xianyou Temple rose.

In the streets and alleys, people are discussing about Xianyou Temple.

"Have you heard? There is a real Buddha in Xianyou Temple!"

"It's been the third day in a row! The Buddha statues glow every night, and the entire mountain is shrouded in the light of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas!"

"What is this! I heard that someone went to Xianyou Temple to pray for blessings, and there were words in the wordless scripture enshrined in front of the Buddha!"

"A Wordless Book? What is that?"

"You don't know this? There is a new abbot of Xianyou Temple, named Fa Nan. According to him, this wordless book is what he got in a dream. It is a gift from the Buddha. It is made of white jade! What instructions does the Buddha have? , will be displayed in the Wordless Book!"

……

Under the marketing strategy formulated by Xu Mu, and heavily publicized...

Xianyou Temple exploded completely!
The most important thing is the Wordless Book he packaged!

Taking advantage of the common people's psychology of watching fun and listening to stories, Xu Mu packaged a book... a wordless book made of white jade paper!

The pretense is a gift from the Buddha!
Enshrined in the center of the hall.

As long as someone prays sincerely, if the Buddha has instructions, then... the traces of the Buddha will appear in the wordless heavenly scriptures!
So as to give guidance to the world!
The common people are superstitious and easy to follow the crowd. When a commoner sees the handwriting on the wordless scripture...

After some publicity, the news that there is a real Buddha in Xianyou Temple quickly spread throughout Chang'an.

……

"Is there a true Buddha?"

In Wulou Temple, Fa Ya frowned slightly after listening to the report from her disciples.

Xianyou Temple is relatively remote, and he has never spent much time in the temple.

But... If you want to talk about the real Buddha, then he doesn't believe it.

He has worshiped the Buddha for decades, and he has never seen the Buddha appear.

"It's true! I saw it with my own eyes!" The disciple under the door looked adoring, and said with great certainty, "Master, at that time, the disciple was sincerely praying to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and a line of words appeared on the wordless scriptures, which was exactly what the disciple was thinking. , just solved the doubts in the disciple's mind!"

"If it wasn't for the manifestation of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, how can this be explained?"

His disciple went to Xianyou Temple once, and after returning, he kept saying that he had seen the real Buddha.

When Fa Ya heard this, her brows were almost wrinkled into the word Chuan.

"Forget it, I will go and have a look in person."

After a little hesitation, Fa Ya decided to go to Xianyou Temple in person to find out.

He wanted to say that Xianyou Temple was pretending to be a ghost, but...

After all, he is also an eminent monk who has attained the Tao, so it is not easy to say that the manifestation of the real Buddha is just pretending to be a ghost.

The next day.

Fa Ya came to Xianyou Temple.

The Xianyou Temple at this time, after Xu Mu's packaging, is completely different from before.

An endless stream of pilgrims, believers coming and going...

Even more prosperous than his Wulou Temple!

Seeing this, Falla became jealous for a moment.

"No wonder the incense in my Wulou Temple has decreased a lot during this time."

He walked into the mountain gate calmly, entered the main hall, and looked at the gods and Buddhas in the sky...

It's no different from when he sold Xianyou Temple before.

The only difference is that there is an additional incense table in front of the futon where the pilgrims pray.

On the incense table, a book without words is neatly placed.

Falla stepped forward and took a closer look. It was indeed a wordless scripture.

Not a single word on it.

"I want to see if this Wordless Heavenly Book is so effective!"

In the spirit of testing, he first recited sutras and bowed to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and finally began to pray.

The question he asked was...

Li Yuan's attitude towards Buddhism.

After burning incense and praying for a while, he slowly raised his head and looked at the wordless book in front of the incense table.

In his shocked eyes, a line of handwriting slowly appeared on the wordless book.

Falla leaned over and looked carefully.

He was shocked on the spot.

Looking around blankly.

There are only pilgrims around.

Obviously, there is no possibility of counterfeit substitutions.

And this handwriting appeared under his nose.

"Could it be... is it really the Buddha's manifestation?"

Falla fell into a life of doubt for a while.

Kowtow to the Buddha continuously.

Moreover, the Buddha explained his question very clearly.

If there is a Buddha in the world, wouldn't everyone know that he sold the temple at will?

"Buddha, Xianyou Temple was in the hands of a disciple before, but you didn't show your true spirit. Do you blame the disciple for being dishonest to the Buddha?"

Falla kept chanting and praying, begging the Buddha for forgiveness.

For a time, he became the most devout believer.

This time, he recited the scriptures until the sky was getting dark and it was approaching night.

Immediately after...

The pilgrims around the hall became excited and looked at the Buddha and Bodhisattva devoutly.

"Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are about to appear! They are about to shine!"

A group of people waited eagerly.

They stayed in the temple until night just waiting for this...

Waiting for the Buddha to appear, the Buddha's light shines everywhere, bathe in the Buddha's light, and dispel the evil spirits...

Hearing this voice, Fa Ya also raised his head slowly, looking at the statues of Buddha and Bodhisattva in the night.

Not long after, a faint light was emitted from the statue.

As the night darkened, the light became brighter.

Against the backdrop of the night...

The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the hall all appeared!

The people were very excited.

They knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Pray to Buddha and Bodhisattva to bless them.

Seeing this scene, Falla was even more astonished.

Not a word could be said.

He could only kneel on the futon piously and keep chanting.

There is only one thought in my mind...

His 15 pens are still sold at a loss...

……

In this way, after several days of deliberation, the news that there is a real Buddha in Xianyou Temple has been thoroughly spread throughout Chang'an.

Inside Xianyou Temple.

After the pilgrims dispersed.

Wang Xuance and others looked at Xu Mu and were also shocked.

Although I know that the lord is going to pretend to be a ghost.

But none of them thought that the lord's pretense would be so big!

Made such a big battle!
The Wordless Heavenly Book is still illuminated by the Buddha's light, if they didn't understand the reason, they might have to bow their heads when they saw this scene in the temple.

"My lord... my lord, how did you create this wordless book and the universal light of Buddha?" Qian Mian and the others were full of curiosity and curiosity.

The corner of Xu Mu's mouth twitched: "In the future, Wanmincheng University will create a branch of Mohism, which will teach the study of physical chemistry. You will know after listening to the class."

These are but the most basic applications of physical chemistry.

But at this time, it seemed like a miracle to the ignorant people.

Even as a reader...

Except for those who don't believe in ghosts and gods, I'm afraid they all have to accept their heads and worship!
Qin Shubao, Wang Xuance, Qian Mian and the others nodded thoughtfully, keeping the word Moxue firmly in mind.

Sure enough, only by reading more can you gain insight!

They look like a farm slave who has never read a book...

Then, Wang Xuance was quick-witted, pointed to the wordless heavenly book, and couldn't help asking: "The words on the wordless heavenly book are written in advance, and the questions of those believers are all kinds of strange, why are they..."

He was puzzled by these believers and pilgrims, each of them prayed differently.

Why was he so excited after seeing the contents of the wordless book.

As if they really answered their questions.

Qian Mian clasped his hands together, and couldn't help but said: "Faya came and saw the contents of the Wordless Heavenly Book, and I couldn't be more excited. Ordinary pilgrims are also, I wonder what the lord wrote on it?"

Xu Mu laughed and said, "A universal answer."

As he said that, he explained briefly: "Pilgrims come to pray, mostly to ask about their future and marriage, etc., so in the answer on the wordless book, I wrote that the future is not far away, the future is bright, and there is no need to worry about waiting for the answer."

When everyone hears...

This came to my mind.

Most of the pilgrims are preconceived, especially when they see the manifestation of the wordless heavenly scriptures and the instructions of the Buddha, they are naturally extremely pious.

A few simple words can make them think of many things.

For example, if you ask about marriage, if the date is not too far away, the person who comes here will think that...the marriage is coming soon.

The same is true for the future.

"My lord...he is really the reincarnation of a god and man, and he can come up with such a method!"

After figuring it out, everyone admired him one after another. This omnipotent answer was actually found by the lord.

In this way, I am afraid that no one will doubt the authenticity of the Buddha's instructions.

Say it elegantly.

At this time, Fa Ya, after receiving the instructions, was about to enter the palace and go to find Li Yuan.
