(I didn’t go home until 9:30 after finishing the matter. Sorry for the late update, but the matter has been handled. I will return to the normal update time as soon as possible tomorrow!)
…
When the dark night passed, the sun once again filled the earth.
Qingfeng Temple is located at the top of Qingfeng Mountain, where it is bathed in sunshine for the first time every day.
Guo Lin got up early in the morning with anticipation.
After all, it was expected that the sect's station could be upgraded today. He always wanted to know what kind of benefits he could get by upgrading to a level 4 sect station.
As soon as I got up and put on my clothes, the game system sent a message of willingness:
[Congratulations on gaining 6 points of willpower!]
[Congratulations on gaining 5 points of will power!]
[Congratulations on gaining 4 points of willpower!]
【……】
This is the power of wishes provided by Xie Qingyang and those who pray in the morning.
Guo Lin looked surprised when he saw the row of prompts. The 6 points of wish power provided by Xuanyun before were the highest.
Except for Xie Qingyang’s 5 points, everyone else’s score is 3 points.
Now there is an additional 6-point Willing Power and a 4-point Willing Power.
Needless to say, one of the people who watched the illusion of heaven and earth and stone walls yesterday to increase his piety was Xie Qingyang.
As for the other person, he must be one of the highly devout believers such as Lin Ze'an and Wang Yang.
As for which one it is, it's hard to tell.
Guo Lin came out to the main hall, and people like Xie Qingyang also came to greet him one after another. As the attractive fragrance of the blessing rice spread, it was time for breakfast.
After breakfast, Xie Qingyang also led people to pray again.
Guo Lin also began to receive reminders of his vows again. This time, he paid special attention to them and asked believers such as Lin Ze'an and Wang Yang to pray individually.
Although believers like Lin Ze'an were confused, they still did it, thinking that it had some profound meaning.
In fact, it was Guo Lin who wanted to identify the other person who could increase his piety.
Finally, he determined that it was Wang Yang who had increased the piety level, and now it has a piety level of 4.
When Xie Qingyang finished praying with others, a couple walked in, and Guo Lin recognized Chen Xin. After all, he had been behind the scenes to get the other party a Taoist plaque.
When Chen Xin and his wife saw Guo Lin, they immediately came forward respectfully: "I've met Taoist Guo!"
The awe deepened even more. Last night, the couple learned about Lao Yushu Yuqian and Mr. Li's daughter's stomach cancer from a rich man they knew.
The news is really shocking.
The elm money grown from the same tree can obviously cure Mr. Li's daughter's stomach cancer, but when other wealthy people took it for testing, there was no substance that could cure stomach cancer.
Now everyone is sure that it was Taoist Guo who asked Mr. Li's family to pray nine times, so that the money was blessed with special energy.
But they can also be sure that the prayer is definitely not a simple prayer, there is something mysterious that outsiders don't know.
Really, the more you know about Taoist Guo, the more shocked you will be.
"Well, the donor is polite." Guo Lin also returned the favor, but that was all. The previous insider manipulation was just because he liked the other party and needed to let others know about the Taoist cards.
When Chen Xin saw Taoist Guo, he didn't pay much attention to him and didn't get entangled. After all, he didn't have much friendship with Taoist Guo.
Besides, what is he in front of the other party? This Taoist priest has no need to pay attention to himself.
Chen Xin thought about taking his wife to offer incense.
[Congratulations to you for getting 3 points of will power! 】
[Congratulations on getting 2 points of will power!]
When Guo Lin got the prompt from the game system, he looked at Chen Xin and his wife who were burning incense in surprise. One of the couple actually had 3 points of wish power?
Why do I feel that it is easier for rich people to increase their piety than for ordinary tourists? You must know that those rich people now also have 2 points of willingness.
Chen Xin and his wife did not know that their piety had increased, so they went to the quiet room after offering incense.
The baptism effect of the quiet room is also very attractive to couples.
Seeing this, Guo Lin didn't let the couple pray again.
Because Xie Qingyang and Xuanyun were both in the quiet room.
After that, the two of them should have a better division of labor and cooperation. After all, as the elder of Yiguan, he no longer needs to do things such as personally guiding people to offer incense and pray for blessings.
It’s not that he’s making a show, or that he’s arrogant, but that the Taoist sect has its own division of labor, such as welcoming guests, staying in the dormitory, treasury, account, scripture, canon, hall, and number. Each has its own function and has its own person to handle it.
Even if there are only three big fish and small fish in Qingfeng Temple now, it is condescending to be guided by the elders to offer incense. At least, unless the blessing is deep, the merit is not spread widely, and the person is not necessary, he will not be blessed to enjoy this treatment.
.
Therefore, the Taoist sect has this rule, and there is no need for him to break this rule just for the sake of 2 points of wish power.
After all, he is no longer the only one in Qingfengguan.
Naturally, those large-scale Taoist temples can be further divided into "three capitals, five masters and eighteen heads".
It's just that these are too far away from Qingfeng Temple.
After all, Qingfeng Temple is still a completely small Taoist temple.
As Xie Qingyang led people to baptize in a quiet room, Guo Lin's wish reminder kept ringing in his mind, and it was getting closer and closer to the sect's station upgrade to level 4.
Not long after, Chen Xin and his wife came again, and they still bowed respectfully to Guo Lin.
"Have the two benefactors enjoyed the blessings of the Quiet Room?" Guo Lin still politely returned the greeting.
"I'm very benefited, and even more shocked." Chen Xin nodded immediately, and then asked with a request: "Daozhang Guo, actually there is one more thing I want to ask you."
"Donor, please tell me," Guo Lin said.
"Daozhang Guo, are those top-quality flowers at the entrance of the Taoist temple from the flower garden on the mountainside?" Chen Xin asked respectfully: "My wife usually likes to raise some flowers, so I want to buy some and take them back to cultivate. I wonder if there are such high-quality flowers there.
flowers?”
The wife next to him also looked at Guo Lin respectfully, with expectation on her face.
She had noticed these flowers before. Each one was a top-quality flower, and they were all new and mutated varieties that she had never seen before.
In fact, she usually likes to raise some flowers, but the matter with her husband has not been resolved yet, so she never mentioned it.
Now that her husband knows that Taoist Master Xuanyun does not need anything in return from him, and has also received a piece of Qingfeng Guantao plaque, she is in a good mood. Naturally, she is interested in these top-notch flower plants and wants to buy a few to grow.
That's why I asked my husband to inquire.
Guo Lin could hear the other party's words and said: "Two donors, the flowers at the entrance of the Taoist temple are a bit special. Maybe you can't buy them, but there are still very good flower plants in the mountainside flower garden. You can go and have a look!"
"
The flower garden is already a meritorious property of Qingfengguan, so he also explained it.
After all, the flower garden will earn merit money for Qingfeng Temple!
Wealth, Dharma, Couple, Land, and Practice 4. Wealth also plays a large part.
It is said that domestic Taoist temples and temples have become philistines, looking after money and supporting the rich.
But that’s not all!
There is such a great Taoist temple in China. They don't care about the money of their believers at all, because they have their own merit industry, and the industry is in compliance with modern laws, and the industry is very large.
Therefore, their attitude is, no matter whether you have money or not, you can come to my Taoist temple if you like, but it is impossible for me to support you.
On the contrary, if you don't worry about money for cultivation, you can practice better. There are two famous heavenly masters there.
There are even many dignitaries who come to see the Celestial Master, something that even Taoist temples and temples cannot do.
The dignitary here means literally.
Therefore, although Guo Linjue's Qingfeng Temple is a small Taoist temple, it should be on par with the other party, and he did the same.
Those rich people were arrogant when they came, but didn't he clearly let those rich people know that it is best to be honest when coming to Qingfeng Temple?
In fact, this is the reason why ancient Taoist sects can produce so many masters. Ancient Taoist temples basically have their own merit industry.
Even in many cases, those wealthy people and wealthy businessmen who go to Taoist temples to donate merit may not necessarily have as much money as Taoist temples.
Otherwise, the resources required by those Taoist masters in ancient times for cultivation were extremely terrifying. How could they do it without money?
In many mythical and mysterious stories, those cultivating sects have shown all this vividly, and their industries have even controlled several princes and countries.
Therefore, if you have the opportunity, you can get some more meritorious properties for Qingfeng Temple in the future.
First, it can give Qingfengguan the capital to regard money as dirt.
Secondly, it does require merit money to upgrade the sect’s base.
What we need now is only a few hundred thousand merit money. Who knows how much it will cost in the future?
"Thank you, Master Guo. Let's go down and have a look." Chen Xin received the reply, bowed deeply, and left with his wife.
After leaving Qingfeng Temple, the two went straight down the mountain to the flower garden on the mountainside. As soon as they entered the flower garden, the couple was surprised.
Chen Xin doesn't know much about flower planting, but once you see the flowers inside, you can see that they are very beautiful and very ornamental.
"These are the best flowers!" The wife was surprised.
Although these flowers are not as good as those at the entrance of the Taoist temple, they are definitely top quality and rare outside. One flower costs tens of thousands and is definitely needed.
The key is that if there are too many, there won’t be a single one that is bad.
How did the owner of this garden cultivate it?
Walking further inside, the couple overheard a conversation.
That was Zhao Moxin and her three daughters entertaining a florist.
"Three Mr. Zhao, the sales of the previous batch of flowers were very good. Because they were new varieties and of excellent quality, they were very popular among female customers who were somewhat sentimental. They were basically sold out as soon as they were put on the market!"
"That's good, I've prepared 500 more plants for Mr. Hu in this batch!"
"The relationship is good, but I found that none of the three Mr. Zhao's flower plants have been sterilized. If they are sold, aren't you afraid of being cultivated?" The florist looked at the flower plants and seemed to be reminding them intentionally.
In business, he has a good partner, and he doesn't want the other party to suffer in this regard.
Zhao Moxin and the three girls couldn't help laughing when they heard this and looked at each other.
They know very well that these flowers rely on spiritual spring water. Without spiritual spring water, they cannot be cultivated outside. Therefore, why should they be sterilized and destroy their ornamental value and beauty?
Neutered flower plants really don't look as good as those that have not been neutered.
Therefore, Zhao Moxin also said: "Mr. Hu, these flowers should show their most beautiful scene. We are all flower lovers. We should not worry about being cultivated by others and destroying the most beautiful state of these flowers.
If someone can really be cultivated by this, then we will also congratulate them!"
The righteousness of these words made the partner stop talking. The other party had already spoken to this extent. What else could he say?
But I have to say that he really admires their broadmindedness.
Not only him, but Chen Xin and his wife who came in all had to admire Zhao Moxin's open-mindedness after hearing Zhao Moxin's words.
The wife even wants to make friends with him.
Perhaps only such an open-minded person can cultivate this superb flower.
Guo Lin didn't know this, he had been paying attention to the prompts of Yuli in his mind.
Finally, after Xie Qingyang recited the prayer sutra again, the game system sounded prompts one after another:
[Congratulations on getting 3 points of willpower!]
[Congratulations on getting 2 points of willpower!]
…
[Congratulations on reaching 2000 willing power, meeting the conditions for upgrading the sect’s station! 】
[The martial arts station is being upgraded...]
[Congratulations, the sect station has been upgraded to level 4, and the special secret realm function of Shushan Swordsman has been opened. The first-level secret realm Qiankun is being opened...]
Almost at the same time, Qingfeng Temple was seen to light up with bright light again, and then it converged over Qingfeng Temple, and then formed a light mask that spread.
This time, unlike before, it did not only cover Qingfeng Temple, but seemed to cover the entire area of Qingfeng Temple.
Moreover, when Guo Lin looked at the diffused blazing light this time, he clearly found that there were phenomena that had not appeared before, and there was actually a special kind of twisted ripples in it.
This kind of distortion ripples out, and it seems that the surrounding space begins to become distorted.
Yes, Guo Lin felt a sense of surprise when he looked at it.
He guessed that this must be related to the secret realm Qiankun. Could it be like the Emei secret realm in Shushan Swordsman?
There were tourists coming in from outside. When they saw Guo Lin, they were all confused:
"That's Taoist Guo. What is he looking at?"
"Is there something up there?"
"..."
The tourists looked up and saw a blue sky and white clouds. The weather was very good. Other than that, there was nothing else!
Another update is that I will try my best to code. Even if I stay up late, I will code it out before going to bed!
