Chapter 20 Magical Powers [Double monthly tickets have started, if you don't vote for monthly ticket
Three days later, Chen Hengzhi took Yang Ren, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling out of Luoyang City and headed to the southern suburbs of the city.
On the way, Chen Hengzhi said nothing. Yang looked at the surrounding scenery and asked, "Master, where are we going?"
Chen Hengzhi said in a deep voice: "Three days ago, my master gave the Buddhist ultimatum to hand over the imperial seal. Unexpectedly, these bald donkeys were so stubborn. Humph, if you don't eat toast, you will be punished for wine!"
"These thieves!"
Yang Neng said in the same indignation: "Master, are they hiding outside the city?"
Chen Hengzhi nodded and said, "Yes, Buddhism is headed by two major forces, one is Cihang Jingzhai in Zhongnan Mountain, and the other is Jingnian Zen Temple outside Luoyang City.
The founders of the two, Tianmeng and Di Ni, were once brothers and sisters, so the relationship between the two forces has always been very close.
The master sensed that the breath of the imperial seal appeared faintly outside Luoyang City, and it was hidden in Jingnian Zen Temple in almost every ten years.”
Yang Qing suddenly realized: "So that's it!"
After walking for a stick of incense, Chen Heng and his fours finally arrived at a valley in the suburbs.
The valley was inconspicuous and looked ordinary. When I walked closer, I found that there was a very large area of flat land on the cliffs, with magnificent temple courtyards hidden in the mountains and forests. The buildings totaled more than hundreds of them, like a small city.
Except for Chen Hengzhi, Yang and the other two were all shocked. Unexpectedly, such a large temple was hidden in this inconspicuous valley.
Following the mountain road down the hillside, I came to a square of hundreds of feet wide, made of white stone and surrounded by white stone railings. In the middle, I enshrine a bronze statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva riding a golden lion, and there are three Buddhas such as Medicine Buddha, Sakyamuni and Amitabha next to the niche.
Colorful gold ornaments are quite bold. In addition to the four stone steps, there are five hundred arhats evenly distributed, all of which are made of gold and copper, and each of them looks lifelike.
Standing at the entrance of the square, you can see that there are seven main halls around the square, and a small bronze hall with a width of three meters and a height of half a meter.
Yang Yan trembled all over and said, "Minister's fat! This is a dirty place made of Minister's fat! After Nian returns, he will definitely report back to Grandpa Emperor and completely eradicate Buddhism!"
When you are in a different position, your thoughts and thoughts are naturally different.
In Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's view, this luxurious temple was just extremely exquisite, and the Buddha statues appeared vividly.
But in the eyes of the emperor, Yang Neng, he saw the dirt behind the temple and the sadness of the people at the bottom.
According to his estimate, the cost of this temple would cost at least one year of the total tax value of the Sui Dynasty. What does this mean!
The annual tax revenue of the Great Sui Dynasty was 33.6 million stones of grain, of which 27.24 million stones of grain were 6.36 million stones of Yi Cang; 2.05 million pieces of silk and 2.5 million pieces of linen. (One piece of silk is 4 zhang, one end of cloth is 5 zhang, and 6 tills of cotton is 1 trunk. The grain paid in Yi Cang is calculated based on the households in the middle.)
It is converted into currency, about 5.58 million guan.
But only three sprigs of copper coins are enough for a family of five to live a whole year.
From this we can see that since the establishment of Jingnian Zen Temple, we have plundered countless wealth and ointments, and we have divorced our wives and children, and our families have been destroyed.
The book continued last time, Yang Ren was full of righteous indignation and rebuked him. Chen Hengzhi refused to comment, and saw that the temple had a god.
Unexpectedly, an old monk suddenly appeared and was extremely fast.
The old monk was wearing a white monk's robe, with all his beards and hair and a childish face. He uttered the Buddha's name: "Amitabha! Be careful of your words for the little donor!"
Yang Qing opened his mouth and was about to speak. Chen Hengzhi reached out to stop him and said, "You are the monk, right? Hand over the imperial seal!"
"Amitabha!"
The old monk clasped his hands together: "I have done everything. As for the jade seal of the donor, I have never seen it before."
"Haha! Haven't seen it before?"
Chen Hengzhi sneered: "Don't tell me, is the Buddha's relics enshrined in that bronze temple?"
He pointed to the exquisite bronze hall in the center of the end of Baishi Square and questioned.
Monk LeJian's face darkened: "Does Master Emperor really want to kill him? Can't you get along with the hundreds of thousands of monks in my Buddhist sect?"
"laugh!"
Chen Hengzhi smiled, and he carried his hands on his back and said leisurely: "Buddhist is not engaged in childbirth, does not engage in childbirth, does not pay taxes, and does not strip civilians, which is a cancer! He also tries to control the magical artifact of the country and elects emperor for all the people of the world. Chen is not able to get along with your Buddhism. What should you do?"
After all the old voice rang out: "Amitabha! Master Emperor is obsessed with it, and has fallen into the devil's path. For the sake of the people of the world, I hope Master Emperor Emperor will stop his horse and stay in my temple. He listens to the Dharma every day to wash away the anger in his heart!"
His wrinkles were everywhere on his face, with a compassionate expression, and his pale beard on his chin added a little more vicissitudes, which made people know that he was a monk who had at a glance.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw monks in yellow scrubbing out of the halls around the square. They held long sticks in their hands, and their temples were bulging high, which was obviously twice as powerful as martial arts.
The leaders were four strong men, born tall and mighty, wearing blue monk robes, and obviously had a higher status than the monks behind them.
They surrounded Chen Hengzhi and the other four, either standing, half-squatting, or leaning against each other, with different postures. The position seemed messy, but in fact it was an extremely clever formation.
Chen Hengzhi looked around and said indifferently: "Why, so these people want to keep me? Could it be that they forgot how the four old bald donkeys died?"
The four strong monks shouted: "Strange, the Buddhist sect is important, don't be arrogant! Let you see my Buddhist 'One Hundred Single Eight Vajra Array' and set up the formation!"
"yes!"
The monks responded in unison, and then each made movements. They raised the long stick in their hands high, forming a net of sticks to cover them in the middle.
Chen Hengzhi was calm and his hands were swept, and the fluorescent luster appeared in the air. In an instant, he pointed to the sky and shouted: "Let you see my new fusion of magical powers! Imperial!"
A ray of light soared into the sky from his hand and went straight into the sky.
"Little Five Elements Magical Power·Meteorites Camera"
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a roar sounded between heaven and earth.
I saw that the sky, which was originally clear and cloudless, suddenly there were lightning and thunder, dark clouds, strong winds everywhere, and then sand and stones were flying, making people unable to open their eyes.
Razer dances wildly, and the sky is so powerful!
Everyone present changed their faces. Is this a magic trick?
Monks: I will compete with you in martial arts, do you play fairy arts with me?
Monks: Coach, I want to report it, someone here is cheating!
I saw hundreds of fiery red lights falling from the sky in the dark clouds, rushing straight downwards.
Meteorites with a diameter of dozens of feet fell down with fire.
"Boom! Boom!" The sound was endless.
