Just when the Song army led by Zhong Jianzhong approached Fugong City.

Outside Lanzhou City, sandalwood was swaying, and countless Han and foreign soldiers and civilians were worshipped on both sides of the road.

Dozens of monks wearing white monk robes, holding their feet and bowls, chanting scriptures in their mouths, and moving forward piously.

Among these monks was an old monk who had a white beard and had a kind-hearted and kind-hearted old man.

The old monk was wearing a purple robe given by the emperor, holding a bowl made of gold in his hand, and was walking barefoot.

Next to the old monk was a cart led by a pure white yak.

On the car, gold foil was decorated with lit sandalwood, red flowers were sprinkled with bright silk, and many treasures were decorated with carriages.

There are several cars and horses accompanying this big carriage.

"Namo Amitabha!"

The believers crawled on the ground as the old monk and the treasure car passed by, clasped their hands together for ten weeks.

At this time, the old monk would always reach out to grab a little water from the bowl and sprinkle it on the crowd around him.

Every time at this time, believers around the world, both Han and Fan will be excited.

There are even those who are crying.

Because this time, Master Puji Huaien not only brought the Buddha's tooth relics dedicated to the Zisheng Zen Temple in Mabang Mountain.

It also brought the rain and dew that the monks in Zisheng Zen Temple brought under the pagoda in the past year.

These rain and dew are nourished by Buddha's tooth relics and have extraordinary effects and merits.

If sentient beings receive this sweet rain, as long as they worship Buddha devoutly, they can eliminate disasters and diseases, eliminate demons and demons; they can also bless their ancestors and protect their descendants; or even eliminate all sins, and they will not suffer from hell after death, and can go straight to the Western Paradise!

In short, it's all-powerful!

As long as you worship Buddha devoutly and respect Buddha, the Buddha will be blessed.

As for what is devout worship of Buddha? What standards should be met in order to receive relevant blessings?

This is determined by the heart.

Believers should ask themselves whether they are sincere?

In short, it is a set of sayings that are mixed with the concepts of Pure Land Buddhism, Zen Buddhism and Tantric Buddhism.

This is also the characteristic of this era - the concepts and ideas of Pure Land Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, and Tantric Buddhism are now mixed or referenced.

The effect is really good!

On the top of Lanzhou city, Zhao Qing, wearing military uniforms, looked at all this from afar and couldn't help but say, "This monk Zhiyuan is really a wonderful person."

"It's not in vain that the official family is enthroned as Master Puji Huaien!"

Listening to the left and right, they all laughed.

They all knew the inside story, and they even planned the direct participants in the "Buddha Tooth Relics Tour Xihe".

So it is very clear that everything you see in front of you has been carefully planned and designed.

"Mr. Li Hao, the deputy envoy of Xihe Road, who had been by his side, was silent, and was also the governor of Lanzhou, suddenly asked: "After today, will the influence of the Zisheng Zen Temple in Xihe be difficult to control?"

The Song Dynasty suffered from religion.

And I'm still eating now!

In the Jiangnan area, the Food and Vegetable Demon Cult grows like vines on the bottom of the countryside and cities.

So much so that in places where the power of the Food and Vegetable Cult is powerful, even local officials have to compromise and cooperate with it.

Otherwise, you won't be able to do anything!

"And, the lower official also heard that Master Puji Huai'en will reincarnate and rebuilt in Huangzhou in Wenxi's heart in the future..."

Li Hao said worriedly: "In this way, I am afraid that the monks on Mount Mabang will not abide by the law and even bewitch the people..."

Li Hao is a person with more complicated experience among the generals of Xihe Road than Zhao Sheng.

He was from Guanxi, and his father was Li Ding and Di Qing's general. He followed Di Qing to fight against Nong Zhigao and became the chief of the Guangxi Military Control Commission. Therefore, he spent his youth in Guangxi. After his father's mourning, he returned to his hometown and mourning for three years in Suizhou. Then he traveled around and went to various places.

Unfortunately, the imperial examination has always been unfavorable. If it is normal, if a martial artist like him who has no background and backing, and without the promotion of noble people, the ceiling will destiny that it will be difficult for him to break through the ambassador.

Fortunately, Wang Anshi's reform brought an unprecedented opportunity.

He took the opportunity to go to Bianjing, and relied on the basis of the Western Army and familiar with the virtuality and reality along the border to present "An Bian Ceremony" to Wang Anshi, so he was recommended.

He was immediately appointed as Guan Goujun and his troops ascended in an instant.

What's even better is that at this time, a man found him and said to him: Young man, let's do it with me!

This person is called Zhang Dun.

So Li Hao followed Zhang Dun to the two lakes and started with Chenzhou.

In a few years, he made many military achievements and became the number one general in Zhang Dun's opening of the two lakes. After Zhang Dun succeeded, he listed his name as the first place of the meritorious general.

In this way, he, a young envoy who was unknown before Xining, was appointed as the commander of the Xihe Road military commander in the tenth year of Xining, and was promoted to the high position of introducing deputy envoys!

Then the wind blows again, and five directions attack Xia. He followed Li Xian, rushed fiercely, regained Lanzhou, and went down to Tiandu Mountain, so he was the military minister to govern Lanzhou.

In the following five Lanzhou battles, he won a big win.

Relying on the courage of powerful generals such as Wang Wenyu, he has made meritorious service and promoted.

Now he is one of the highest military ministers among the generals of Xihe. Last year, after entering the capital to report his duties, he was promoted to Zhongzhou Defense Envoy for his military achievements. This is the official military minister! There are no more than ten official military officials in the national dynasty!

Therefore, he was appointed as the governor of the military affairs of Lanzhou and served as the deputy envoy of the Xihe Lanhui Road Administration.

As a military official, the next step is to return to Beijing to serve as a military officer, then the cavalry and infantry army, the personal guards, and the second officer of the Palace Front Office.

For a military minister, if this is possible, then he can marry the royal family like those heroes, and retire, and learn from the Zong family, Yao family, and Zhe family, and become a famous general family of the Western Army.

And the martial officials who have reached this point are actually full of ownership!

Why?

Because they and their descendants' wealth have been completely bound to the Zhao Guan family.

Theoretically, if the Song Dynasty is immortal, their descendants will not worry about wealth and honor!

And Li Hao has seen the terrible religion.

When he was young, he traveled to Yangzhou and saw with his own eyes how the local temples in Yangzhou used believers to rampantly.

When he followed Zhang Dun to open the two lakes, he had seen the power of religion even more.

A few monks, in a few words, could make the natives on the mountain take the initiative to walk down the mountain and accept the registered households and people.

The monks just promised that the government would build a temple in the local area.

Naturally, he could see the terror of Zisheng Zen Temple in Mabangshan.

Before Zhao En could speak, Xiang Zonghui laughed and said, "Zhifu (Li Hao's name is a prose) don't worry about this!"

"The official has given gold bottles and jade signs. In the future, the descendants of Zisheng Zen Temple in Mabangshan can only be selected by the imperially given gold bottles."

"In addition, the reincarnated Master Puji Huaien needs to go to Bianjing to practice in Daxiangguo Temple or Huguo Temple before he becomes an adult."

These are two insurances to ensure that Master Puji Huaien from Mabangshan will always follow the official family.

The former ensures that every generation of Puji Huaien must come from a family that is closely related to the Song Dynasty.

The latter ensured that every generation of Puji Huai'en would be close to the court.

After listening to it, Li Hao finally understood what the imperial gold bottle is for?

Suddenly, he bowed back to Xiang Zong with conscience: "So that's it, thank you for your business to resolve your doubts."

He bowed toward Bianjing and said, "The true saint is the emperor."

Xiang Zong smiled back and remembered a message from Bianjing City - Di Qingzi Di Yong, who has become a military officer, has adopted his daughter as his adopted daughter and is named the county lord.

Li Hao's father was Di Qing's old subordinate.

With this relationship, you can get closer to Li Hao in the future.

Maybe, it will be used in the future!

...

The monk Zhiyuan held a Dharma meeting in Lanzhou City that day under the arrangement of the Lanzhou government.

Tens of thousands of Lanzhou military and civilians participated in the Dharma Assembly. During this process, Zhiyuan ordered people to carry Buddha's tooth relics and take the Buddha water moistened by Buddha's tooth relics brought from Zisheng Zen Temple to bless the military and civilians present.

Lanzhou City suddenly seemed to have been put on a layer of BUFF.

The morale of the military and civilians is greatly boosted!

The next day, under the escort of Lanzhou officers and soldiers, he went to the cotton fields outside Lanzhou and among the forts, where he was picking cotton, and blessed the people of all ethnic groups who "worked" in these places.

I have to say that this old monk's body is really strong.

For two consecutive days, I walked barefoot in all directions and blessed the people of all races, but my face remained unchanged.

Not to mention that he is an old man, even a young man may not have such a physique.
