1099. Chongsheng main hall

Zhang Hongwei led the Tianji Army to the Ershui Sea and began military exercises.

The army is arranged in a square array.

Zhang Hongwei didn't know if anyone was watching in the dark. As soon as he lined up the array, he asked the grenade launcher to set up a cannon and fired at Ershui.

There were more than a hundred grenade launchers in total, and they fired fires into Ershui one after another. You can imagine how shocking this kind of formation was.

The rumbling cannon sounded across the Dali Imperial City.

Each ten grenade launchers fire at the same time.

A total of twelve consecutive sounds.

Although the cannon sound lasted for only a few minutes, it must have been enough to cause a great shock to the people in the Dali Imperial City.

Grenade launchers are a symbol of invincibility in this era.

In Chongsheng Temple, Liu Zhuwen's eyes were faintly smiling.

Since the sound of cannons came here, he thought that the monks in Chongsheng Temple would know how to make choices.

The Song Dynasty did not have the strength to conquer the entire Dali with force. It was just unwilling to do that. If these monks from Chongsheng Temple were still unwilling to let them enter the temple, then Liu Zhuwen had to consider whether to advise the emperor to conquer the entire Dali with force.

At that time, the people of Dali may not be greatly hurt. It is a delusion that Buddhism still wants to maintain such a transcendent status in Dali.

First rituals and then troops.

Liu Zhuwen has given these Dali Buddhism enough room for choice.

After a while, the little novice monk ran back again.

His dark face was a little rosy and sweaty, and he was panting. He went to Liu Zhuwen and others and said, "Dear donors, hosts, please come in."

Liu Zhu and Miao Cheng looked at each other, then laughed and nodded, "I'm sorry, I'm not here to go."

They followed the bluestone steps in the woods and followed the little shaman to the mountain.

The gate of Chongsheng Temple is at the foot of the mountain, and the main hall must be above. Even behind the three towers, you need to bypass the bell tower and the shadow pool.

Along the way, Xiaoxiaomi, Liu Zhuwen and others did not speak.

Liu Zhuwen and others were just watching the buildings in Chongsheng Temple.

In other words, in places like Dali, where Buddhism is respected, large temples like Chongsheng Temple appear. In the Central Plains, there are only a handful of such temples.

Counting several Buddhist holy places, the only one that can be compared with Chongsheng Temple in terms of magnificence is probably Shaolin Temple, which is a master of Buddhism.

Go to the main hall behind Chongsheng Temple.

This place enshrines Guanyin and several Dali emperors who became monks in Chongsheng Temple.

Only Dali can have this situation.

In the Central Plains, few emperors would become monks.

However, Liu Zhuwen and others did not go directly to the main hall because more than ten monks were waiting at the door.

They were all wearing red robes with gold wire, and they were quite old and looked kind and gentle.

These monks are all presided over the Chongsheng Temple, and they all enjoy extremely high holy names in this Dali Buddhist temple.

From a certain level, their words are even more effective than the words of Duan Xingzhi and Duan Qilin in Dali.

Only Buddhists cultivate their minds and nature and rarely interfere in the state affairs of Dali. It is even because of their existence that Dali has maintained general peace for so many years.

Otherwise, with the situation where so many tribes in Dali are divided, they will probably have to conquer them every year.

"Amitabha."

As soon as Liu Zhuwen and others arrived, more than ten monks bowed and sang the Buddha's name.

The head of the head of the chief minister had white hair and beard, and he looked eighty years old. He said, "All the generals are polite."

“The master is polite.”

Liu Zhuwen bowed and returned etiquette.

The soldiers bowed back to the Miao Cheng on the side and the worshipers behind.

This is a preliminary greeting. On the surface, both sides are quite harmonious.

Only after Zhu presided over, some young monks looked at Liu Zhuwen and others with a slight bad look.

Although the Song Dynasty did not poison the people of Dali, it was an indisputable fact that they attacked Dali. They were invaders to the people of Dali.

Not every monk can cultivate to the state of mind that you preside over.

Furthermore, even if these hosts were in the situation where Dali had enough strength to resist the Song army, they were afraid that Mo would contribute to Dali. After all, they were born and grew up to Dali.

However, Liu Zhuwen and others would not care about the eyes of those monks.

If you just arrived in Dali, you can win the recognition of the people and the people in Dali Buddhism, that would be impossible.

The host said again: "Are you generals going to the main hall to burn incense first, or go straight to the reception room?"

Liu Zhuwen said: "We come to burn incense, of course we should go to the main hall first."

Then he walked towards the main hall.

The host said to a host next to him: "Go and get the incense and candle."

Liu Zhuwen and others entered the hall.

Theirs alone almost made the main hall scattered.

Liu Zhuwen's eyes swept over the golden statues of the gods, Bodhisattvas worshipped in the main hall, as well as the Dali emperors who had originally become monks in Chongsheng Temple, and finally fell back to the Yu Tong Guanyin.

How many years has this Chongsheng Temple been, and how many years has the golden body of Guanyin worshipped?

This always makes the main hall have a strange atmosphere. Perhaps it was subtly produced by the power of faith for many years.

The statue of Guanyin, which is compassionate to all living beings, always makes people feel the urge to worship from the top and bottom.

However, Liu Zhuwen did not believe in Buddhism, so he did not kneel down. He just bowed to the statue of Guanyin.

A little novice monk came in outside the door holding an incense candle.

Liu Zhuwen and Miao Cheng took the incense and candle and burned incense to Guanyin statue.

There is nothing much to say about this.

The monks were just watching outside, with different expressions.

Some of them were probably sarcastic about Liu Zhuwen pretending, but some were lucky.

No matter what, Liu Zhuwen and others came to Chongsheng Temple to burn incense, and always gave him enough face to Chongsheng Temple.

Just imagine, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty are invincible in the world. The Dali National Army is in name only. Even if Liu Zhuwen and others don’t come to burn incense, what can they do?

Although there must be masters in Chongsheng Temple, can those masters still be opponents of the three Great Song Imperial Guards?

After all, the masters of the martial arts world can only be the help of the army. Without the army, they cannot make any achievements on the battlefield.

After celebrating incense and bowing, Liu Zhuwen and others left the hall.

The host of Chongsheng Temple said, "My generals, please follow me to the reception room!"

His voice was Gu Jing Wubo, and after he said that, he led more than ten hosts to the reception room.

Liu Zhuwen and Miao Cheng followed with hundreds of people.

They are really afraid of death.

After all, no one knows what kind of thoughts these monks in Chongsheng Temple are holding.

If these enshrinements were not brought by their side, there would be monks in Chongsheng Temple to take action, and Liu Zhuwen and Miao Cheng were not opponents.

Liu Zhuwen doesn't know how to fight at all.

Miao Cheng has martial arts practice, but he is only at the Zhongyuan level. He is already quite old now, and his strength is no longer at its peak.

Until the reception room.

Only then did Liu Zhuwen and Miao Cheng ask the worshippers and guards to stay in the yard, and follow Zhu Chongsheng Temple to the reception room.

The host and guest sit down.

Some novice monks serve tea.

The host asked Liu Zhuwen, and Miao Cheng said, "Didn't the two commanders come just to burn incense?"

This is certainly impossible.

The host must have wanted to get Liu Zhuwen and the others to have other purposes. He just asked this on purpose to open up the topic.

Miao Cheng didn't say anything, just chuckled.

Liu Zhuwenze said: "The master is indeed as wise as a torch. Chief Miao and I came to visit rashly, but we had something to ask for."

The host said, "What's the matter?"

Liu Zhuwen whispered: "I heard that there are 100 acres of fertile land in Chongsheng Temple, and I think we should stockpile a lot of food. However, our army rushed to Dali, but there was not much surplus food in the army. If this continues, there will be a danger of food being cut off, and the soldiers can only starve to death. Please be kind to the master and help us with some food."

Some of the hosts in the reception room changed slightly, and some even snorted coldly.

Liu Zhuwen asked for food, and anyone could tell that the drunkard's intention was not wine.

There are still many forces in Dali who are still waiting and watching, and the same is true for the people. If Chongsheng Temple lends grain to the Song army, wouldn’t it mean to express his attitude of joining the Song Dynasty?

This will inevitably have an extremely far-reaching impact in Dali.

Many people will no longer revenge the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty because of their Chongsheng Temple.

And there are many people who are afraid that they will even hold grudges and complain about Chongsheng Temple.

The situation of Chongsheng Temple may become extremely embarrassing.
