Lecturer Deng couldn’t figure out how to preach these days, so he went to Hangzhou’s most popular Buddhist temple of the Three Generations to learn Buddhist scriptures.
The first is the Notre Dame Church. Although scholars still think of Western religion or Christianity, in the eyes of ordinary people, the huge statue of the Virgin Mary at the door is where everyone believes.
The palms of the Virgin Mary statue have been rubbed until they are shiny. Because it is said that touching the Virgin Mary’s head is to ward off disasters, many pilgrims go over and rub their heads to rub the Virgin Mary’s palms.
There is a large water tank next to the statue of the Virgin, which is already filled with more than half of the tank's copper coins. Unfortunately, in the water, if you reach out to grab it, it will naturally get wet, and the secret will be exposed. < /p>
Deng Cong, amidst the strange looks around him, threw a copper coin into the water tank and finally escaped safely.
The current pilgrims to the Notre Dame Church are quite devout. Many of them were former refugees who survived after receiving relief from Western religions. Now that they have settled down, they naturally come to thank Our Lady every time they take a break.
Of course, some merchants from the sea trade came to fulfill their vows, especially those red-haired ghosts from the West. They all worshiped in the inner hall, and it was still difficult for outsiders to enter.
It took a year to lay the foundation for the main hall of Notre Dame Church, and I don’t know when it will be repaired and completed. The statue of Our Lady outside is so lively now, and I don’t know how prosperous it will be after it is completed in the future.
As soon as Deng Cong turned around at the door of the Notre Dame Church, tears of unfulfilled envy flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Afterwards, Deng Cong wiped away his tears, bought a big pork sesame cake on the roadside for lunch, and went to the most famous Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou while eating.
Women and Confucian scholars are the two main sources of customers in Lingyin Temple. From a distance, you can see groups of people entering and leaving in groups outside the mountain gate.
The main business of Lingyin Temple is seeking children and studying.
The former ensures that a woman can conceive, give birth, and give birth to a son, so that the woman will not suffer the crime of seven births. The prices increase gradually.
Generally speaking, it is cheaper to chant sutras in batches in the main hall. It is much more expensive for eminent monks to lead devotees to a private room in the back garden to practice magic and chant sutras one-on-one. As for whether it works or not, we don't know. Fortunately, I can give alms again. Giving alms many times will always be effective.
As for those who want to learn, Lingyin Temple basically relies on two tricks. The first trick is various bizarre Zen koan stories. In these stories, there is an opportunity and an epiphany, which are very attractive to scholars.
Another trick is to learn it. It is not a formal academic society, mainly because officials from various ministries and departments in Hangzhou like to come here for outings due to the local Confucianism and teachings. Therefore, the temple also organizes garden tour societies based on poetry, calligraphy and painting. What these people were talking about might be the test questions for the provincial examination, government examination, and college examination. Even if there are no exam questions, it would be good to get acquainted with these officials in advance.
In a high-end game like Lingyin Temple, DengCong basically despaired after just one look and couldn't play at all.
Previously, it was confirmed in the Notre Dame Church that large-cost investment such as relief was not feasible, but now there is only one Taoist door left.
Deng Cong's mind was full of melancholy. If the Taoist side still couldn't do it, then he would have no choice but to pass on the position of leader to the saintly niece and avoid the bad reputation of being the leader of a dead cult. Even if I die, I won’t be unable to see all the previous leaders.
In this way, Deng Cong walked towards Baopuguan with the last glimmer of hope.
