The publicity work of Fawang Temple has been done for a long time.

Dozens of monks of all sizes in the temple travel around the countryside and towns every day, performing rituals for free, and then promoting the miracles that appear in the Fawang Temple. A temple fair will be held on the eighth day of the seventh month, and the miracle will be consecrated.

Over the past period of time, many people have indeed gone to Fawang Temple to burn incense, but the back area of ​​Fawang Temple is forbidden to enter, and it is said that there is a miracle hall that fell from the sky.

Everything was carried out according to the plan of Fawang Temple, and everything seemed to be beautiful.

The only thing that is the only drawback is that the Shaolin Temple once again came to a miracle yesterday. It was a bell tower, and it arrived on the spot under the attention of hundreds of people.

Although the miracle of Fawang Temple is a main hall, it is not something that people see when it arrives. In this way, messages are inevitable. Many people say that the miracle of Fawang Temple is fake. Look at the Shaolin Temple and the miracle of the day, it is impossible to do it.

Things began to develop in a direction that was not conducive to Fawang Temple.

In desperation, Fawang Temple introduced a new measure to serve porridge.

Anyone who comes to attend the Dharma King Temple Fair can receive free rice porridge and steamed buns, and the visitors will have a share.

At that time, there were still many poor families. I heard that going to burn incense not only allowed you to see miracles, but also received free meals, which immediately mobilized the enthusiasm of many people.

No matter whether his miracle is true or false, as long as he can eat something.

In addition, the promotion of Fawang Temple was long enough, and the entire entrance to the south mountain of Shaoshi Mountain was occupied by vendors in advance. Just after the Chinese Valentine's Day, before dawn, people were already in great fun.

The monks who came out of the Fawang Temple also announced great news, that is, the abbot of the Fawang Temple, Likong, the senior brother of the Fawang Temple, and the abbot of the Daxiangguo Temple in the capital, will personally attend the miracle consecration ceremony of the Fawang Temple.

Daxiangguo Temple was regarded as the first Buddhist temple in the prosperous Tang Dynasty because it was a royal temple. On weekdays, the royal rituals were done by Daxiangguo Temple.

Perhaps Daxiangguo Temple is not the best in terms of martial arts and martial arts status, but in terms of popularity, Daxiangguo Temple, as a royal temple, is indeed the best.

Generally speaking, temples have abbots, but there may not be an abbot. Abbots are not only of Buddhism and are profound, and those with high virtue and respect cannot be held. There are only ones who serve as an abbot at a young age like Huo Yuanzhen.

But let alone abbot of a small temple like Huo Yuanzhen, even the abbot of the Fa Wang is incomparable to the identity of the abbot of Li Zhi.

The abbot of Daxiangguo Temple, as the second-person in the temple, did not need a great gift when he saw the emperor. What an identity he was, actually came to Henan in person to participate in the consecration of the miracle of Fawang Temple. It seems that the miracle is not fake.

The monks of Fawang Temple spread the news as quickly as possible. Soon, the people who came to participate in the consecration ceremony heard about the news.

In order to see the monks with your own eyes, people rushed forward. The already lively place is now crowded with people, and the small vendors doing business are so happy that they can't stop.

Not only did the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple come, but even the prefect of Zhengzhou Prefecture come to participate, because the prefect and his wife are both Buddhist believers and often burn incense and worship Buddha at the Dharma King Temple.

The prefect also spoke out that Fawang Temple is the holy place blessed by Buddha. As for the recently-proclaimed Shaolin Temple, it is just a group of flower monks who cheated on it.

He also said that after the miracle of Fawang Temple is consecrated, military troops will be sent to investigate the newly emerged temple of Shaolin Temple. If there is any place where behavior is wrong, this turbulent temple will be immediately destroyed.

With the support of the eminent monks and prefects in the capital, the Fawang Temple was in full swing, and more and more people gathered at the southern mountain of Shaoshi Mountain to watch the Consecration Ceremony.

The ceremony is scheduled to start at noon, which is also the strategy of Fawang Temple, because tourists and pilgrims can receive more incense money by staying in the temple for a while. During this period, the pilgrims of Fawang Temple have been deserted, and with free ritual promotion, they have indeed invested a lot and urgently needed new funds to enter Fawang Temple. Otherwise, the normal life of monks will be difficult.

************************************************

Huo Yuanzhen also received an invitation from Fawang Temple.

This invitation was very surprising, but when Huo Yuanzhen received the invitation, he smiled.

The invitation book reads as follows: "The young monk Yijie of Shaolin Temple is Qi, and I am the abbot of the Fawang Temple, and I am the abbot of the Fawang Temple. I am 72 years old. I have been studying Buddhism since I was five years old. I can recite all the Heart Sutras at the age of nine. I took the precepts and became a formal disciple of the Fawang Temple. I performed rituals for people at the age of seventeen. I was praised by all directions. I became the abbot at the age of thirty and became a residence in the abbot at the age of forty and forty-two. I have read countless Buddhist scriptures and have understood the true meaning of Buddhism. I can understand all the bad things that the Buddha thinks."

"Even so, you dare not speak out of bad news and communicate with the Buddha. After being a young monk who is less than 20 years old, you dare to speak out and deceive the people and deceive the neighbors for two days. This abbot intends to scold you, but you are not a disciple of my Fawang Temple. However, the Buddha said that monks do not lie. Even if you are not a disciple of the Fawang Temple, but are in Shaoshi Mountain, how can I see you for harming the countryside without asking any questions, so I pray for the Buddha day and night to ask for the blessing of heaven, and the Buddha will give mercy. The Great Hall of Heaven came to the Dharma King Temple to expose your painted skin and demonstrate my Buddha's true meaning."

"On the eighth day of the seventh month, our temple held a ceremony of miracles and consecration. Our abbot came to you with the compassion of guiding you to be kind, to see the original works of the Buddha and to cleanse your sinful hearts. I hope you will come to our temple at that time to listen to the teachings and to correct your body and mind."

After Huo Yuanzhen finished reading a scattered persuasion and an arrogant precept book, he handed it over to Guan Shanyue and read it again.

After Guan Shanyue finished watching it, she was so angry that she tore the invitation to pieces on the spot, but was blocked by Huo Yuanzhen.

"Yichen, how about it? Do you think we should go?"

Guan Shanyue snorted coldly: "Abbot, you are the one who can really communicate with the Buddha. What is his Dharma King Temple? If you go there, you are too proud of them. So the junior brother will go there and burn their dilapidated temple."

"Why do you have to do this? In that case, we have been in vain for the arrangement last night."

Hearing Huo Yuanzhen's words, Guan Shanyue smiled knowingly, "Yes, they want to consecrate, let them open it and see how they ended in the end."

"We should really go and get together so much."

"But abbot, we have just come back."

"It's okay, put the white horse on the car, and we will return to Fawang Temple now, otherwise we will ask those colleagues to laugh at us as timid."

The two of them put the white horse on the carriage again. Huo Yuanzhen told the white horse where to go in his heart. Then the two of them slept in the carriage. The white horse was spiritual and could take the two directly to the Dharma King Temple.

Even with a carriage, the speed was faster than that of ordinary people. Without a driver, he ran all the way and arrived at the foot of the Fawang Temple in half an hour.

In fact, the Fawang Temple deliberately sent an invitation to Huo Yuanzhen late, so she didn't want Huo Yuanzhen to come. However, the bad news was encouraged by Li Xuan, who had a gap between Huo Yuanzhen and borrowing, so she wrote an insulting invitation to go there. In order to disgust Huo Yuanzhen, they thought that even if Huo Yuanzhen came after receiving the invitation, the consecration ceremony here would probably end.

But they did not expect that Huo Yuanzhen not only came, but the consecration ceremony had not yet begun, and even Huo Yuanzhen and the others came before the monk who went to Shaolin Temple to deliver the letter came.

However, when Huo Yuanzhen came, the people from Fawang Temple did not know about his arrival. There were too many people here and they were too busy to receive him, so people could only do it themselves.

Huo Yuanzhen and Guan Shanyue followed the crowd into the courtyard of Fawang Temple. When the others saw the two, they thought they were also monks from Fawang Temple, and no one cared about it.

I walked to the vicinity of the intermediate courtyard before I stopped because further inside was the main hall of the backyard of Fawang Temple, which was about to be consecrated.

"Abbot, let's wait here, it's probably about to start."

"Why do you have to wait? Don't we have invitations in our hands? Go in directly."

Huo Yuanzhen didn't want to wait in the crowd, so he and Guan Shanyue came to the door of the intermediate courtyard to the backyard, where several young monks from Fawang Temple were guarding it.

Those monks had seen Huo Yuanzhen's invitation, and their faces showed strange expressions. I wonder if I should let Huo Yuanzhen enter.

"What? Do you know the rules or not? You dare not stop the guests invited by your abbot!"

Guan Shanyue yelled beside her. The little monks were a little afraid and still gave up the road.

Huo Yuanzhen and his two men successfully entered the backyard. There were not many people here. In the distance, the entire Main Hall was covered with red silk. The cost of this silk alone cost hundreds of taels of silver and almost all the red silks from the nearby satin shop were bought.

In front of the Main Hall, there is a row of tables and chairs, which should be the main characters sitting, but no one is there yet.

There are several rows of tables and chairs below, all of which are seated by those who received invitations. Now there are many people sitting, all of whom are high-ranking officials and nobles. They often come to Fawang Temple and are invited to support them.

Further behind, there is a wide open space for those who watch the ceremony.

Huo Yuanzhen and his wife took the invitation, so naturally they came to the table and chairs where the guests sat, waiting for the consecration ceremony to arrive.

The crowd around were discussing the consecration of the miracle that was about to begin, and there were also words that belittle Shaolin, and Huo Yuanzhen laughed it off.

On the contrary, Guan Shanyue was a little impatient on the side and kept trying to argue, but was stopped by Huo Yuanzhen.

"Don't worry, look at the monks wearing cassocks over there, they don't seem to be from the Dharma King Temple."

Guan Shanyue followed and saw that several monks wearing big red cassocks were sitting in the front row. Although they didn't speak, they had a sense of arrogantness, as if they were above the identities of the people around them.

"It should be a monk from Daxiangguo Temple. He came with Zen Master Lizhi, and everyone else said that."

Huo Yuanzhen nodded and narrowed his eyes slightly. Someone from Daxiangguo Temple has arrived. This time, the incident has become more and more exciting and interesting.
