Chapter 160 The Immortal Self(2/2)
It's just that something that gains the power of faith in this way will not become a heretical dharma. At most, it will only derive spiritual wisdom and give birth to a Holy Spirit.
And suppose that thing is held by a certain person, or represents a certain person.
The villagers offered that thing because of that person.
Then the power of faith born from them will be directly attached to that person and will have nothing to do with what is being worshiped.
Simply put it's like.
Buddha statues enshrined in temples.
When people worship those Buddha statues, they are not worshiping the piles of gold-painted stones, but they believe in the gods and Buddhas behind the Buddha statues.
The power of their faith will be directly passed on to the gods and Buddhas behind each Buddha statue.
The Buddha statue is just a medium, no one will believe in that pile of broken stones.
Naturally, it is even more impossible to derive the heretical dharma.
Follow the inference in the manual.
If a person believes in gods and Buddhas, he also believes in the pile of stones on which Buddha statues are made.
Then it is possible for the Buddha statue to gain the power of faith and eventually evolve into a heretic dharma.
But everything is just speculation.
Throughout history, there are only a handful of people who have truly accomplished this.
"Now it seems that I am really lucky, but I didn't expect that among my followers, there would be those who believe in that pile of stones."
While Lin Qiye was rejoicing, his face couldn't help but look a little strange.
The purpose of believing in him is to seek peace and wealth. Then what is the purpose of believing in that pile of stones?
It's like asking someone to do something for you, only to end up asking for his or her photo.
What Lin Qiye didn't know was.
Because he has never appeared in front of anyone other than the villagers of Tata Village.
Therefore, most outside worshipers think that the statue is the true body of the Holy Spirit in Tata Village.
Belief in the "noumenon" of the Holy Spirit and belief in the wisdom within the "noumenon" coexist without conflict.
Most of the existences that had second deities in the past had similar experiences of being misunderstood like Lin Qiye.
However, this misunderstanding is so wonderful that even the immortals cannot achieve it in their dreams.
After having a deep understanding of the origin of the heretic dharma.
Lin Qiye probably had some idea in his mind.
Just when he was about to continue reading the rest of the manual.
Bursts of noisy sounds came into his room.
"What happened? Is this still the Yingsheng Temple?"
"Oh my God! This is a miracle! A miracle has happened!"
"It must be the merits of Lord Holy Infant that have moved Heaven. Heaven is congratulating Lord Holy Infant!"
…
"Something happened, sir! Come out and have a look!"
The voices of Chang Shi and others sounded in the courtyard.
Lin Qiye frowned and pushed open the door.
When the scene outside the house came into view, he was stunned for a moment.
The small courtyard that was originally only about 20 square meters has now expanded to more than 100 square meters.
There are many things in the courtyard, but the space has been expanded several times.
After a brief daze, Lin Qiye suddenly remembered.
Last night the fat monk told him that the immortal would bless and reward him.
Is this it?
"Sir, please go and take a look at the temple. The whole thing has changed a lot now. It is said outside that you moved the heavens, so I specially blessed you with rewards."
Chang Shi and others looked a little excited, obviously they had seen the changes around them when they came over.
Lin Qiye was also a little curious.
His figure flashed and appeared above Yingsheng Temple.
Looking down.
Lin Qiye suddenly showed a look of surprise.
It can be seen that the Yingsheng Temple, which originally had only a few branch halls, has expanded to thousands of square meters. The number of branch halls has not changed, but the temple area has increased significantly.
There are also large open spaces inside the temple, which seem to be the foundations for future buildings.
also.
The layout of the entire Tata Village has changed accordingly.
The temple is placed in the center of Thatta Village.
Although the buildings of the surrounding residents were moved outward due to the expansion of the temple, no one was damaged.
The Buddha's light shines everywhere, and the immortal charm surges.
The entire Tata Village is enveloped in a peaceful atmosphere.
"This is a real miracle, sir!"
Chang Shi and others followed Lin Qiye, all of them seemed very excited.
Able to accomplish such a feat of reconstruction without disturbing anyone.
Besides miracles, what else can explain it?
Lin Qiye took a deep breath.
I can't help but have a new understanding of those so-called immortals.
At least such methods were unimaginable during his most powerful period.
"Sir, you see, the name of our Yingsheng Temple has also changed. Now it has the word City God."
Hou Tu pointed to the plaque at the main entrance of the temple and said.
Lin Qiye turned around and looked.
Sure enough, the original plaque of Yingsheng Temple was gone, replaced by a plaque twice the size with the words "Yingsheng City God Temple" written on it.
Magnificent, solemn and solemn.
Looking at the excited Chang Shi and others, Lin Qiye smiled.
"You guys should move in too in the future. There are a lot of open spaces in this temple, and it would be ugly to have them idle."
Chang Shi and others were stunned at first, then overjoyed.
"Thank you for the gift, sir!"
Several people rushed to the open space below excitedly.
Even the butcher could not hide his excitement and began to discuss with Chang Shi and the others how to allocate the locations.
However, there are still two people who have not taken action.
One is Luo Xiaobei, who is about to break through to the Hedao realm and is about to leave to carry out Lin Qiye's mission.
The other one is Gu Yue.
She stood next to Lin Qiye and looked at him sadly.
Lin Qiye seemed to have realized something. He turned around, looked at Gu Yue and said:
"Why don't you go pick it out?"
Gu Yue bit her red lips and her face turned red.
What's going on with this guy!
I bullied others like that last night, and now I'm pretending like nothing happened!
"Don't go!"
She tilted her head and tried her best to express her dissatisfaction.
After what happened last night, she finally realized it.
What exists in Lin Qiye's petite soul is definitely not an ignorant baby.
Those torture methods are simply skillful.
