Northern Dynasties

Master Tan Jing was able to survive the series of calamities that happened between Heluo and Heluo back then, and after arriving in Longyou, he was able to flourish again, so he was naturally not an ordinary person.That is to say, his profession limited his performance, otherwise he might not be worse than the Beizhen military leaders.

Naturally, he will not be led by the nose by Li Tai, and he has his own opinions in his heart. When he realizes that the actual situation is different from his prediction, he should calm down and stop showing his eagerness, just expressing the matter It still needs to be discussed and weighed, and there is no immediate answer.

Li Tai was not surprised by this, and was not worried that the fish would get unhooked.He could see that the old monk was a very thoughtful person and coveted his official position and power. Now that he was eyeing him, he would not give up easily.Just as he also made up his mind to let the Guangming Temple go bankrupt, and if he couldn't steal it secretly, he would grab it openly.

When the old monk was sent out of the state capital, a state official on the other side was leading several monks to the state capital.Seeing this scene, Li Tai subconsciously turned around to cover himself, but Master Tan Jing was already looking thoughtfully at the few monks who came to this trip.

"Praying for my close relatives and hoping for a reunion is the top priority for me. I really hope that it can be as comprehensive and perfect as possible. The Dharma here is prosperous. In order to avoid any omissions in the plan, I have widely collected the Buddha's words and sages, and I specially invite ten thousand Buddhas. The Master Tang came to inquire, not to question the Master."

Seeing that Li Tai couldn't hide it, he said to Master Tan Jing with a dry smile.You old monk, even if you want to increase your status, you have to be careful, don't keep me waiting, there are many masters in Longyou, but I am the only one who is handsome and looking for my father!
Master Na Jing's eyes flickered slightly after hearing the words, and then leaned forward and said: "Your filial piety is sincere, and it is human nature to have such a plan. One person thinks about the short, and everyone thinks about the long. After the old monk returns, he will also gather together." The monks and disciples in the temple pooled their wisdom and gave the envoy a satisfactory answer as soon as possible, so as to make this matter perfect and impeccable!"

"Then I will thank the mage first!"

Li Tai saluted the old monk again with a smile, and then signaled the officials to lead the old monk out, while he warmly greeted the masters of Wanfo Hall.Whether it is the local tyrants or these monks, let them roll if there are competitors, and continue PUA if there are no competitors.

Master Tan Jing could still maintain the Buddha image with kind eyebrows and kind eyes in front of people, but after boarding the car, his face suddenly fell, and he said angrily: "I wonder why this Li Changshi wants to add more images and cut off the ceremony. It turns out that there are ten thousand Buddhas behind him." All the evil members of the hall tried to persuade them. It seems that they are still ruthless and want to regain Duwei's post!"

There are many temples in Longyou, and each of them is good at different fields.Venerable Tan Jing studied the Fa in Luoyang, and was good at lectures and debates and Buddhist rituals.The Wanfo Hall was born on the basis of the Maijiya Grottoes, so it is the Buddhist temple that is best at statues in Longyou.

Venerable Tan Jing had already seen that Li Tai knew nothing about Buddhist rituals, but the changes he proposed just now were detailed and specific. There were detailed standards for the regulation, shape, and materials of Buddha statues. Humans can never come up with such specific and detailed requirements.

He didn't know that Li Tai copied Hongfa Temple, the largest Buddha statue production base in Weibei, and got a large number of Buddha statues at the same time, and got all the craftsmanship standards in his hands, so he subconsciously regarded it as the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall Take the initiative to report to Li Tai's industry standards.

Naturally, Li Tai would not be too free to read these statues. He knew that Longyou Shamen was prosperous, so he brought these materials with him for emergencies. This caused a beautiful misunderstanding. Resounding, so stubborn that it moves the world.

"This matter is really tricky. Li Changshi himself does not have much money to worship, but he has many requirements and strives for grandeur. Even if the monks from the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall join in, it will be difficult to cook without rice. Since he has already If we don't trust others, then we might as well get out and enjoy peace."

The abbot monk who was in the same car heard the words and said that his interest in this matter has dropped sharply.

"Nonsense, in this position, there are some things that can be avoided? This Li Changshi is not only a famous student, but also the son-in-law of Hanoi. He raised his breath. He prayed for his father because I was the one who moved his heart. If I folded my hands and watched, how could I be able to assume the position of Duvina? If this position is removed, the people in the county can still respect and fear me like in previous years?"

Master Tan Jing couldn't help but reprimanded after hearing this: "You have been with me for many years, but your schemes are still so mediocre, how can I pay you all the temple affairs!"

"But, but such a grand Buddhist event must consume a lot, and Li Changshi is unwilling to contribute..."

After being reprimanded, the abbot couldn't help but whispered again.

This is indeed a difficult problem. After pondering for a while, Master Tan Jing said: "Li Changshi promised to entrust the camels of various families to mortgage the temple, so as to make up for the expenditure of materials. When things progress gradually and the momentum spreads, the masses When the attention is unstoppable, he can no longer show others that he is stingy and stingy.

Household savings may be short, but official materials are abundant.There are several workshops for the manufacture of Buddhist utensils in Wudu Temple. If they can be incorporated into the temple, the creations will be sold well in Hexi when the commercial roads are opened.So the concern right now is not the amount of advances, but absolutely not letting him give up me and take him! "

"But it's just my own plan. If Li Changshi refuses to agree, or goes back on his word..."

Although the mage had explained it very clearly, the abbot still felt a little risky.

Hearing this voice of doubt, Venerable Tan Jing said coldly: "There are hundreds of monks in the temple, most of them are the children of the strong clan in the county, and there are more than ten thousand believers in the city. The Buddha also has King Kong, the strong man who protects the Dharma and defends the Way! You can have no officials here, but you can't have no Buddha, how dare he insult the Buddha!"

Speaking of this, he looked at the abbot with dissatisfaction and said: "After you return to the temple, you will hand over the temple affairs and transfer to the scripture hall to compile scriptures."

When the abbot heard this, his face collapsed immediately, and he repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, but Master Tan Jing didn't intend to give him another chance, and even drove him out of the car halfway.The other monks couldn't help feeling awe-inspiring when they saw this. Master Tan Jing may not have achieved the right result, but in this Guangming Temple, everyone's fate can be decided with one word.

After returning to the temple, Venerable Tan Jing summoned another group of deacon monks to discuss the renovation plan proposed by Li Tai. What was discussed was not whether it was feasible, but how the plan should be implemented to ensure a better Good results.

However, relying solely on Guangming Temple's own strength, this plan is a bit difficult, because statues are not the director of the temple.

However, Venerable Master Tan Jing, as the capital of the county, has the power to dispatch the slaves of all the temples in the county. Of course, he must also give the corresponding temples a certain amount of remuneration, unlike his own temple slaves who can be sent at will.

Master Tan Jing even planned to take this opportunity to include a group of temple slave artisans who are good at making statues in the Wanfo Hall into his own temple. As long as Li Tai, the prefect of the county, turns a blind eye to this, he can guarantee that the Ten Thousand Buddhas The church can't make any troubles in Samana and the village.

That's why Master Tan Jing was so dissatisfied with the abbot. His short-sightedness did not see the great benefits in it.

The previous Longyou chiefs mostly focused on stability, and would not mobilize too much government power to interfere with the order of the monks, but Li Tai's style of work was obviously different from the previous ones. He had already done many things that no one had done before in the town. As long as we can find the same point of interest, we will be able to carry out in-depth cooperation with each other.

Master Tan Jing thought that he was accurate in judging people, and also felt that his style of acting was more tactful and sophisticated than Li Tai. While the monks were discussing the implementation, he sent someone to tell Li Tai to fully accept his revision plan, but he needed to write it himself. Write an article about making a wish and praying to the Buddha, and the preparations for the Buddha ceremony can be started immediately.

Of course, this request was to completely tie up the personnel. With Li Tai's own endorsement of the article, they could launch various campaigns to eliminate other potential competitors, and through the attention of the masses, Li Tai would have no way out.

Li Tai also wanted to buy some time for the crew in Chang'an, and it would take at least ten days to go back and forth. In addition, it would take a certain amount of time to conceive any heroic and powerful chapters, so he simply didn't agree to the old monk. .

However, in Master Tan Jing's view, this meant that he was confident and indifferent, so he planned to use his own method to cut off Li Tai's retreat, leaving him no other choice.

On this day, all the monks and disciples of Guangming Temple gathered together to form a team of Buddha statues, carrying a newly cast, copper-tin-gilt statue of Venerable Damulian, and the master of the temple, Master Tan Jing, walked along the south bank of the Weishui River. Go to Zhoucheng.

Such a grand travel team naturally attracted the attention of the masses.Especially for a great virtuous and eminent monk like Master Tan Jing, if it is not a senior supporter in the town, it is difficult for ordinary believers to see it. Today, he personally presides over the Buddha statue tour ceremony, which will attract the masses to follow him even more.

When the team arrived outside the state city, they first walked around the state several times, attracting the attention of countless people inside and outside the city, and Master Tan Jing ordered the monks to go straight to the state capital in the city.

In the state mansion, Li Tai had already received the report from his subordinates. He stood in front of the mansion gate and watched Master Tan Jing and his party walking through the city.

"The old monk did not dare to slack off when Mr. Shi visited the temple the day before yesterday. He prayed diligently for the past few days, and finally got enlightened on the day when Venerable Mulian's dharma was cast, so that Mr. Shi could find the heir of his benefactor who could not be found anywhere. "

While speaking, Master Tan Jing waved behind him, and his own disciples led a young man who was clean in bath and neatly dressed but dark and thin from the team, and led him directly to Li Tai.

"Your name is Yan Zheng? Yan Xin, Sun Xi of Yan Ming Mansion?"

When Li Tai saw this young man, he was a little curious for a while, so he pointed to the young man and asked, Yan Huaide, who was also in the state capital, rushed forward, pulled the young man and said excitedly: "Not bad, not bad, this is exactly my hard life Nephew!"

The onlookers don’t know the relationship between Li Tai’s family and the Yan family, but the monks of Guangming Temple brought by the old monk tried their best to tell the public how Li Tai repayed his kindness, asked the master, and with the help of the master, Next, the benefactor's heir was found.

This kind of story of one drink, one peck, good cause and good fruit can really poke the pain points of the masses. For a while, all the people present were full of emotion. It is natural to praise Master Tan Jing for his profound Taoism and great magical powers!
