"Is it possible that it was done deliberately through some means..." Emperor Chenghe thoughtfully played with a white jade Pixiu paperweight on the table.

"Your Majesty clearly saw that I also had such suspicions at the time. However, through technical means and subsequent investigations, it has been possible to rule out intentional human intervention..."

"Oh?" Emperor Chenghe sat up straight after hearing this, and leaned his upper body slightly forward in Liu Quan'an's direction: "Maybe you are sure?"

"I have called experts in this field to check it, because it is certain." Liu Quan'an considered his words and said: "In addition to my Luan Yi Division, the Investigation Bureau (the abbreviation of the Special Crime Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Justice) has nothing to do with this matter. ) have also started investigating the matter there, and as far as I know, their conclusion is the same."

Emperor Chenghe nodded slightly, thoughtfully: "Is there anything else?"

"I have also brought some video information here. I wonder if Your Majesty would like to take a look at it?"

Seeing the emperor nodding in agreement, Liu Quan'an walked aside and pressed the button somewhere, and saw an instrument rising from the ground.Immediately afterwards, light was projected into the void above, quickly forming a blue light curtain.

Liu Quanan took out a small magnetic chip from his pocket and inserted it into it, making some adjustments. Then, he saw images begin to appear on the blue light screen in the void above...

I only heard a female voice that was extremely excited and even had a broken voice saying loudly: "Friends from the audience, I am currently on Cisheng Road outside the gate of Linzhou Yongji Hall. In front of me is Linzhou Yongji Hall. Please take a look at the inpatient department building..."

As she explained, she could see the 32nd floor of the tall building in front of her. A clear light had already penetrated from the building, rushing straight up to the sky and into the clouds above...

The camera then pointed upward at the clouds in the sky, and saw that the thick clouds were getting lower and lower at this time, and the surging clouds seemed to press on the top of people's heads, accompanied by flashes of electricity from time to time, which was a spectacle.And that beam of light, which was several meters in diameter, was about to penetrate the sky!

"Look! Look!!"

"Blessed Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate!"

"What is that? Come on, take a picture!"

"…………"

There were a series of exclamations all around, and all kinds of exclamations were endless...

........................

...............

"This scene was taken by a TV reporter outside the stadium at the time." Liu Quanan introduced.

Then, the screen switches.

Then he saw a corridor appearing on the black and white screen, and there was a time displayed on the side of the screen. It was obvious that this was a surveillance video.

"This is a surveillance video from the corridor on the 32nd floor of the inpatient department of Linzhou Yongji Hall when the incident occurred. Unfortunately, the mourning hall where the incident occurred was previously a training classroom and no surveillance equipment was installed."

The brightness in the video gradually increases, and you can see clear light coming from the wall.Soon, a group of Taoist priests were seen walking out of one room and trying to open the door of another room.

The door seemed to be locked, and it could be seen that the Taoist priests could not open it even with a key after several attempts.

At this time, the clear light became brighter and brighter, and the video was almost completely white. After that, the brightness decreased, and only then could the people in the corridor be seen again.

"Here we adjusted the brightness of the picture through technical means." Liu Quanan explained.

At this time, it can be seen that not only the Taoist priests, but also the nurses and caregivers who stayed on this floor have gathered, and everyone is looking at the closed mourning hall.

Immediately afterwards, after a brief discussion, the Taoist priests present, led by an elderly Taoist priest, began to line up in two rows and began to chant sutras.

Several nurses and medical staff present also stood aside respectfully.That respectful look, even if they are not physically present at the moment, you can still see their awe...

..............................

………………

The screen switched again, and the perspective changed at this time. It was obviously a scene of the earth taken from space, somewhat similar to a weather cloud map.

"This is the satellite image received by the Songjiang Luoshan Satellite Data Receiving Center at 2:33." Following Liu Quanan's introduction, he saw that the camera angle on the screen began to adjust, aiming at the sky above Linzhou, and began Keep zooming in...

On the screen, a small cloud layer gathered in an abnormal state, and at the same time, there was some kind of strong beam of light that faintly penetrated the cloud layer...

........................

...............

When the video ended, the virtual screen in front of him also dropped. Emperor Chenghe still maintained the posture he had when watching the video just now, his gaze penetrated the front, and he remained silent without making a sound.

Naturally, Liu Quan'an next to him couldn't interrupt the emperor's thoughts, so he pretended to be a clay puppet.

Chapter 211: Edicted as ‘Mr. Tzu Chi’

After a while, the emperor suddenly said: "Is it true that this Xuanmen can transform into an immortal?"

Liu Quan'an on the side was suddenly shocked when he heard this. This question seemed simple, but it was actually a bit difficult to answer.After all, throughout the ages, emperors who sought immortality and enlightenment did not know who they were. However, most of them had a bad reputation after their death, and even worse, many died and their country was destroyed.

Even though the modern era is no longer the era of "everything in the world is the king's land, and the land is the king's ministers", as long as the emperor shows a clear tendency to be close to religion, I am afraid there will still be ministers who come one after another to advise him. , after all, it definitely belongs to some kind of "political correctness".

This also makes it so that as long as he caters to the emperor's question at this time, as long as this answer is spread, he, Liu Quan'an, will be known by thousands of people tomorrow as a "fool", "traitor", and "everyone will punish him"...

But if you say no, it will inevitably lead to the suspicion of telling lies with your eyes open, which will inevitably make the emperor feel grudge. And for me, a confidant of the emperor who is in a sensitive position, it is even more troublesome than being a "traitor" .

Almost instantly, Liu Quan'an's back was wet with cold sweat.He glanced at the emperor's attendant who was standing in the corner of the palace like a wooden sculpture from the corner of his eyes, and then lowered his head and said:

"I am stupid and have never done much research on religion. However, thinking about the thousand-year inheritance of Xuanmen, there must be some extraordinary methods..."

"I remember that in the case in Jiangling not long ago, the old man "Cheng Xuzi" who appeared was also suspected of being a member of Xuanmen, right?"

"Yes. At that time, His Majesty also asked me to investigate the matter. I also mobilized capable personnel to investigate the identity of the old man, but nothing has been gained so far."

The emperor nodded slowly, thought for a while, and then ordered: "Continue to investigate, you will personally investigate this matter, but pay attention to the method. Also, I don't want to hear any noise from outside."

"When I receive an edict, I must investigate carefully and act in a low-key manner."

The emperor nodded, waved his hand and said, "In that case, you can go down."

Liu Quan'an then said goodbye and bowed out.

After sitting alone at the table for a while, Emperor Chenghe waved to the invisible attendant who had been standing in the corner. The middle-aged female officer immediately took a few steps forward and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Has the Queen left the palace to offer incense recently?"

"Back to your Majesty, your Majesty will go to Puji Palace to offer incense at the end of every month as before." The female officer lowered her head and said respectfully.The Puji Palace she refers to is the imperial Xuanmen palace used by the imperial family. It is not far from the Forbidden City and is where the nobles in the palace come to offer incense and pray for blessings.

Perhaps it was because the previous dynasty Daqian believed in Buddhism. After this dynasty gained the world, although it did not have a clear national religion like the previous dynasty, nor did it set up national teachers and other instructors, from an ideological point of view, the royal families of all dynasties were more It is an indisputable fact that people tend to lean toward Taoism.

The emperor nodded, silently walked back and forth for a few more steps, suddenly stopped, and said: "Let the Academy of Academic Affairs draft the edict, and the abbot Xiao Zhenren of Dinghai Yunxiao Temple, posthumously bestow 'Mr. Tzu Chi', and let them draft it later." Watch with me."

"In addition, let the queen consider the gift list and send people to Yunxiao Mountain to express condolences in the name of the royal family."

"Well, okay...ok, um, yes, I've seen it, and the holiday starts on the 28th..."

"Well... I have passed the exam and performed well. Okay... I won't tire myself..."

"Don't worry... I feel pretty good recently... Well, I won't... I'm taking the medicine, don't worry, I won't miss it..."

In the dormitory, An Huiling was absentmindedly talking on the phone with her mother while searching for information about the history of Xuanmen on the Internet.

"No, you don't have to pick me up... You really don't need it, I can just come back by myself, I'm not a child anymore..."

"Yeah, um, okay, okay, okay...I know, I'll let the bodyguards follow me."

"Well, I'll call you before I come back..."

"……………………"

After soothing her increasingly nagging mother, An Huiling took a deep breath and closed her cell phone. She subconsciously glanced at the small medicine bottle that had not been opened for a long time on the bookshelf nearby and stuck out her tongue. .

Looking back, those days of illness and disaster seemed like a lifetime ago.However, An Huiling has not thought about how to explain to her parents that she suddenly recovered from her illness.

Take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, just say that you have recently believed in Tianzun, and then when you wake up, you suddenly feel better...

It's amazing, isn't it!

After all, there are always some miracles in this world, right?

Although the school's official holiday is scheduled for the 28th, after the final exams are completed, many students have already started to leave school early, and many of them have made detailed holiday travel plans.

And the rest who claim to be waiting for their grades in school are mostly playing games in the dormitory or having sex with the opposite sex. In short, there are not many who really stay in school and study hard from an academic point of view.

An Huiling and her parents said she would go back after the holiday on the 28th. In fact, according to her original idea, she wanted to spend the entire holiday practicing. However, she didn’t know what her mother had in mind. She actually said that she wanted the whole family to be together. Travel to the Spice Islands.

To be honest, An Huiling doesn't have much interest in traveling nowadays. Is traveling as interesting as cultivating? ! !

However, An Huiling also knew that it was impossible not to go back during the winter vacation. After all, her parents would not trust her to stay in school alone.After all, in their eyes, they were suffering from an incurable disease.

Sighing, An Huiling felt that she could only follow her mother's wishes...

"Hello Professor Wu, have you seen the video we just sent you? Many viewers know that you have always been against religion, especially traditional religion. Your popular science blog has always been on the Internet. With great influence, I wonder what you think of Master Xiao’s emergence this time?”

"I just watched the video you posted. Regarding the death of Master Xiao, the deceased is the most important. I don't want to say anything more. As a condolence for the death of an elder, here I wish Master Xiao a good journey. "

"As for the video you mentioned, I just took a brief look at it. However, what I want to mention here is that at that time, apart from the people from the hospital and the palace, no other reporters entered the building to conduct the interview. Filmed on location?”

"I think, with the level of development of modern technology, if you want to achieve such a visual effect, there may be more than one solution, right? Of course, I am not targeting anyone here, it is just a discussion. If you want to achieve such light and shadow in the video, As for the effect, I think any film and television special effects team can come up with a plan, it’s just a matter of cost.”

"In addition, my personal position has never changed on the issue of traditional religions and Western religions. From the perspective of modern folklore, my country's traditional religions are polytheistic, and their cultural connotations cannot be separated from the nation and lack supra-nationality. , from the perspective of civilization, polytheism has not been able to get rid of the category of animistic worship. Its theory is relatively primitive and rough, and its level of sophistication is far less than that of Western monotheism. In addition, there are also answers to life and death, and monotheism has more answers than polytheism. System... All in all, I personally have always been relatively objective and rational on academic issues, and will not change my views because of one or several videos..."

"……………………"

Professor Wu Licheng put down the mobile phone in his hand. Feeling a little unhappy, he stood up and paced back and forth in the office.

He just accepted an interview from a local newspaper. As a popular science V with considerable influence on the Internet, Professor Wu Licheng has always attracted the attention of many fans with his relatively high-profile image.

However, his "anti-religious" views, especially his view that "traditional religion is backward and no longer suitable for the development of modern civilization", have always been controversial, and many people even commented on his social page Threaten to beat him up.

However, Professor Wu Licheng has always scorned such threats, and he has never been troubled by controversy.In the era of jokes and eyeballs, there will be no attention without controversy. Professor Wu has always been very clear about this.

However, this so-called "Master Xiao's Emergence" incident, combined with the recent "Song Tianshi Appearance" incident, has suddenly amplified the voices of some religious figures in society.For ordinary people, this is nothing more than an anecdote after a meal together, but for a popular science V like Professor Wu, whose arguments are almost "labeled", it is like hearing the sound of drums before a battle.

Could it be that those "withered bones in the grave" have switched to new preaching methods and begun to use certain scientific and technological means to fight for the right to speak in public opinion?

Professor Wu Licheng squinted his eyes and sneered slightly in his heart, "talisman water cures diseases", "throwing beans into soldiers", "invulnerability"... For thousands of years, changing the soup without changing the medicine is nothing more than changing from the acrobatic tricks in the past to what they are now. Sound and light special effects are used. This method can deceive those ignorant men and women. They want to hide it from my eyes...

Humph, I can tell right away that there is something fishy about you!

What about becoming an immortal? I believe you are the only ones with ghosts...

PS: Regarding the title of the emperor, I have synthesized some information from previous dynasties on this point. Generally speaking, the internal servants of the Jokhang Palace addressed the emperor as Huang Ye, while the foreign ministers used the title "Your Majesty". There are some differences in the titles inside and outside.

Chapter 212 Dharma Name Zongxuan

Not to mention, Professor Wu also secretly received funding from some non-governmental organizations, mostly in the direction of popularizing science, and also from some foreign NGO organizations, hoping that he could properly refute the bad roots of traditional religion and culture.

Of course, Professor Wu does not think that he has been influenced by such organizations. This is all his academic point of view. As for accepting funding, isn't this a very common thing in academic circles?

Therefore, regardless of money or reason, he has no reason to let those scammers fool around...

Professor Wu decided to write a new article to set the record straight...

"Hmm, um... ok, hahaha, that's good, ok, you can send it to me later."

"Well, well...I should go back to my hometown to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, and I won't be back until the next year."

"Um...Okay, call me before you come."

"Um, um, haha... OK, bye."

Zhang Jing turned off the mobile phone in his hand. It was Wei Hanxin who called him just now, telling him with joy that he had found a suitable band for the previous song and was currently in the process of recording the sample song.

After chatting quietly with him for a while about how he was working with the band and recording music in the past few days, Wei Hanxin also asked about his plans for the New Year. After hearing that he was not planning to spend the New Year in Linzhou, he proposed that he would meet after the New Year. Come and visit him.

Her full energy could be felt through the receiver. Zhang Jing smiled slightly and felt that his mood seemed to be much better.

He, Zhang Jing, was sitting behind the desk in the study. After placing his cell phone on the edge of the desk, he summoned the wishing book...

"I obtained a 'figurine' that has not yet been opened during my recent adventure. I made a wish that I will soon meet a 'soul' who has just died and is in the bardo state to use it to construct this 'figurine'. A person's personality. Regarding the specific direction of choice, I need him to have careful thinking ability and wisdom, and to have a very in-depth understanding of Taoism and the religions of this world, so as to be as helpful as possible to my future plans.

The wish has been fulfilled.

Deduct 20000 wish points. "

"In the early morning of January 1, the abbot of Yunxiao Temple in Dinghai Yunxiao Mountain conferred the title of Yuanli Xuanmiao Wuwei Yanjiao Zhuang Jingpuji on the real person.
