Upon hearing this,
The incense guests were immediately all eyes and ears.
They hadn’t expected this incense offering trip to be so interesting.
First, they watched a fool hurt themselves for amusement, and now they could witness the legendary Daoist priest Xuanqing’s sermon.
It’s worth mentioning that
on the internet, the most popular videos about Xuanqing, besides the “Cloud Ladder”, are his sermon videos.
Yang Ying, upon hearing this, became even more excited.
She knew very well that the difference between watching videos online and listening to them in person was like heaven and earth.
The next moment,
she hurriedly took the wooden fish from the main hall, ran under the locust tree, and handed it over.
Here,
under the locust tree,
originally,
Xuanqing intended to sit down cross-legged after receiving the wooden fish and start preaching to the incense guests.
But suddenly, he remembered that although the place had been purified with a Purity Spell, sitting there and preaching would still make his heart a bit uneasy.
This feeling is like a bowl licked by a dog; even if it has been cleaned, you can’t help but feel disgusted, except for dog moms and dads.
At this moment,
the incense guests who were originally inside the main hall had all come to the courtyard, either standing or squatting, eagerly surrounding Xuanqing.
Xuanqing slightly frowned.
It seemed too late to set up a temporary preaching platform at this moment.
When his gaze fell upon the locust tree, an idea struck him.
Next moment!
Whoosh-
With a light step, he leaped into the air and landed gracefully on a branch of the locust tree.
Upon seeing this,
the audience’s eyes widened; they couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
Keep in mind,
they were all young people who had received at least nine years of education, and many had even attended higher education institutions.
Now they were witnessing such a scene that defied basic physics, and they could not help but be deeply shocked.
“Hiss”
The inhaled breaths of the audience echoed in the courtyard.
“This, this, this… Newton must be turning in his grave, right?”
“Ha, 1 knew Daoist Priest Xuanqing would have a Lightness Skill.”
“Is there anyone..”
As the people were discussing,
Thump-
With a strike of the wooden fish,
the mana-filled sound seemed to contain magical power, spreading in all directions.
Anyone who heard the sound of the wooden fish felt their heart pound intensely for a moment.
Thump- Thump
Accompanied by rhythmic wooden fish strikes,
A mysterious scripture emerged.
“The Supreme says: Fortune and misfortune have no gate, only man himself calls them forth.”
Hum-
At this moment,
all the people seemed to be under a Paralysis Technique,
no longer making noise or expressing surprise, even their eyes remained still, and their bodies stood motionless like poles.
“Good and evil rewards are like shadows following their forms… The gods responsible for calculating blessings and disasters in heaven and earth reduce them to poverty and affliction; all evil brings calamity… When calculations run out, death ensues.”
On the tree branch,
Xuanqing was sitting cross-legged.
With the wooden fish in his right hand, he rhythmically struck it.
Mysterious Scriptures flowed from his mouth,
The sound was not loud, more like he was mumbling to himself.
But what was incredibly strange was,
the incense guests felt this faint sound echoing directly in their minds, clear as day.
Even.
The echoing scriptures in the mind do not need to be read, and one doesn’t even need to know the characters, to understand the meaning they express.
“To seek a Heavenly Immortal, one should establish 1,300 good deeds; to seek an Earthly Immortal, one should establish 300.”
“If one’s actions are unrighteous and defy reason.”
As the preaching gradually deepens, the meanings expressed become layer upon layer, and all the Incense guests feel as if clouds are being cleared to reveal the sky in their hearts.
What is worth mentioning is.
Some incense guests who are holding phones to shoot.
In this increasingly intoxicating atmosphere, they gradually forget themselves, even if some people drop their phones on the ground without realizing it.
Time slowly passes.
The “Supreme Sensing Chapter” recited by Xuanqing is also coming to an end.
This Taoist scripture is not long, and its main purpose is to admonish people to be good.
As the saying goes, for those who do good deeds, the blessings may not come yet, but the misfortunes have already departed, while for the wrongdoers, misfortunes may not come yet, but the blessings have quietly slipped away.
Of course.
People have their own destinies, and some people have good fortune, even if they do evil and lose their blessings, they can still be carefree, but when their fortune completely dissipates, it is time to be punished.
“Good and evil responses are all due to the cause and effect!”
With the final recitation completed.
The chanting is over.
At this moment.
Above Xuanqing’s head, there is a cluster of special golden light spots floating, containing a special power within.
“The power of incense fire?”
Xuanqing is astonished.
Generally speaking, the more incense one burns and prayers one offers throughout the day, the less incense fire is produced.
These incense guests had already offered incense in the main hall and already contributed their incense fire, but they could still produce so much incense fire.
“Could it be that after listening to my preaching, these laymen have devoted themselves to the faith, so they contributed another wave of incense fire?”
Although not entirely clear on the reason, the outcome of the situation is good enough.
“1’11 observe more carefully during the afternoon chanting!”
This is what Xuanqing thinks.
First, the mana on the body transforms into a phantom hand that scoops up the incense fire above the head.
“Exchange for Ingot!”
[Beep, lngot+652]
The next moment.
The silver and white light on the body flashes and disappears, already transformed into a Light Body.
With a light touch of the toe, Xuanqing gently drifts down from the branches of the old locust tree like a light breeze brushing the leaves.
At this moment.
In the courtyard.
All the incense guests close their eyes with an intoxicated expression, as if they are under a spell.
Even when Xuanqing has already come down from the tree and left, they have not yet sobered up.
Not until new incense guests step into the Taoist temple does the situation change.
“Oh, I’m so tired. I finally arrived at Qingping Temple.”
“Huh? Why are these people standing and sleeping in the courtyard?” The incense guest who just went up the mountain couldn’t help but exclaim.
It was only then that the guests in the courtyard awoke as if from a dream.
“All, has the preaching ended? Why can’t I see the Daoist Priest?”
“My legs are so sore.”
“Hey, why is my phone on the ground?”
“Sigh, it’s already twelve o’clock, we’ve been standing here in a daze for an hour!”
“What scripture is the Daoist priest reciting? It’s so touching; 1 want to go and do good deeds, and be a volunteer!”
They are in a flurry, and noisy chaos ensues.
At the entrance of the main hall.
After waking up, Yang Ying checks the phone she placed on a table, used for recording the video.
Seeing that it’s already recorded, she can finally relax.
She is very aware.
Once the Daoist Priest starts preaching, one will unconsciously be immersed in it.
If the video equipment is not prepared in advance, it’s impossible to even think about recording during the moment of immersion..
