Chapter 100 Buddhist Instruments Under the organizational structure of the Immortal Court, there is a force that obeys the orders of the Immortal Court but is independent of power is so great that it dominates an entire continent. This force is none other than Lingshan Buddhism. He looks very much like the princes of the human dynasty. He only obeys orders and not decrees. Even the Immortal Court is wary of him. Rumor has it that evil spirits are rampant in Xiniu Hezhou, and the people are living in misery, and can only rely on Buddhism to survive. Therefore, most of them are illiterate and easily bewitched by evil spirits. However, Buddhism solved this problem through an ingenious instrument. This ritual instrument is the prayer wheel. This object resembles a rattle and a spindle. There are scriptures engraved inside the prayer wheel. People turn the prayer wheel with a pious heart. Each turn is equivalent to reciting the scriptures once. Reciting Buddhist scriptures is equivalent to atonement in Buddhism. Therefore, this item quickly became part of believers' daily lives and became a fidget spinner for their leisure time.
It also makes it difficult for the various evil spirits to erode faith. As a practitioner, Gu Yunli naturally knows the essence of prayer wheels, which is an alternative form of incense. So he suddenly had an idea. If he could understand the secret, engrave the Internet spell into it, and make it into a rotating gear ring, the picture would be so beautiful. From now on, just flick your thumb, turn the ring, and ding, the Internet is opened. That's the effect. Even if Zhuyou magic comes, you have to give in! By then, not only will the problem of the inconvenience of burning incense be solved, but it will also be able to increase the amount of incense burning. Most importantly, this item is exclusive. As long as his Internet is better than Shuijing, people will naturally vote with their feet. Once they buy the "Internet Ring", they will naturally become fans. Of course, the idea is beautiful, but the risks are also huge. If Emperor Dongyin gave out rings for free, then this business war would become a simple price war. Of course, it’s too far-fetched to think about this now. The most important thing for Gu Yunli right now is how to crack the core secret of the prayer wheel and replace the Buddhist scriptures with Internet mantras. "Logically speaking, since this thing can be mass-produced, the principle should not be difficult." "Unfortunately, I know nothing about refining weapons. Even the simplest ones are like reading a heavenly book to me." Gu Yunli looked at the prayer wheel in his hand, and after some study, he had to give up the idea of specialization. "Could it be possible to ask someone else to help decipher it?" "inappropriate!" "This thing involves the future of the Internet and must not be left in the hands of outsiders. Otherwise, once it is leaked, the consequences will be disastrous." Gu Yunli pondered for a moment, then put away the prayer wheel and started searching on the Internet.
He planned to join a weapon-refining sect and learn the method of weapon-refining himself. You don't need to be proficient in it, but at least you have to understand the principles of refining, the cost of refining, and even the efficiency of incense conversion... and so on. Only by fully understanding these can he make a rational judgment and decide whether to improve it and make it Chinese-style and release it to the public on a large scale. Otherwise, he would rather shrink the Internet, slowly endure the days, and wait for an opportunity to break through. Before long, Gu Yunli sorted out the more famous weapon-refining sects in Southern Continent. After he pondered for a while, he immediately stood up and left. …… There is a temple in Bian County, Shun'an Prefecture, named Pu'an Temple. The temple occupies a huge area. They worship the Three Pure Ones, but offer sacrifices to the ancestor Pu'an. If you ask who is the ancestor Pu'an? Many people looked confused. If we mention Lu Ban, everyone will probably suddenly realize it. Little did people know that Pu'an was Lu Ban's teacher and the god of the civil engineering construction industry. On this day, the abbot of Pu'an Temple was giving a lecture to some young people when suddenly a Taoist boy came with a message, saying that the True Lord of the Domain on the Internet wanted to see him. The master of Pu'an Temple was so shocked that he quickly called the senior officials of the temple to come out and greet them and welcome them into the guest hall. The host and the guest sat down and exchanged some pleasantries. Then Gu Yunli talked about business: "To be honest with you, Master Zhou, I came here because I want to join your temple and learn the art of refining weapons. I am willing to pay 50,000 incense sticks every year. Is that possible?" "This……" The master of Pu'an Temple was surprised, his expression changing constantly, and with a smile on his face, he took out a jade scepter and presented it: "Pu'an Temple is small and cannot afford to worship the Internet Master. This is the "Essence of Refining Equipment", so I will give it to Gu Master. I hope Gu Master will forgive me!" Gu Yunli's eyes flickered when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he accepted the jade scepter, returned the gift, and bowed to say goodbye: "I'm sorry to bother you. See you later!" After that, he stood up and left. The top leaders of Pu'an Temple quickly escorted him out of the temple. When he saw Gu Yunli flying up into the sky, the Taoist priest asked in surprise, "Master, why did you reject Gu Zhenzai?" Master Pu'an looked at Gu Yunli who disappeared into the sky, and sighed, "Before the Water Mirror was released, Gu Zhenzai became my disciple, and I naturally welcomed him very much! Now that the Internet and the Water Mirror are fighting, it is actually a battle between the Earth Official and the Water Official. Are we getting involved in this mess because we think our ancestor's position is too stable?" The Taoist who preached the scriptures was speechless. …… After Gu Yunli left Pu'an Temple, he visited five or six temples in a row, but was rejected by all of them. He suddenly became extremely depressed.
He even considered whether he should change his identity and secretly join the sect. However, after thinking about it, I decided to give up! Firstly, his cultivation was too low, so he might not be able to hide it from others; Secondly, he couldn't afford to lose this person, let alone waste his time. In this world, it is not easy to enter the Tao and learn the Dharma. It is common to cultivate the mind for three years and recite scriptures for five years. The purpose is to observe whether the disciple is suitable? If he had followed the normal path to become an apprentice, it would have taken him an unknown amount of time to learn real kung fu. "Could it be possible that I should go back and read the book to comprehend it?" Gu Yunli was a little conflicted. It is definitely not as fast as having the guidance of an expert if you try to figure it out on your own. "Try a few more." Gu Yunli gritted his teeth and continued to go to the next old law firm according to the compiled list. Judging from the information he collected, Lao Lu Temple is a typical polytheistic temple. Almost all the gods, big and small, from the immortal world are enshrined in the temple. The skills passed down are also very diverse. The art of refining equipment is only the main subject of one of the branches. However, word of mouth is quite good, and many gods from the immortal palace will come down to earth to ask for magic tools. Gu Yunli knocked on the door, entered the main hall, and went straight to the point. "To be honest with you fellow Taoists, I came here to learn from a master and comprehend the way of refining weapons. I am willing to pay 50,000 pillars of tribute every year. Is that possible?" After these words were spoken, the old Lu temple master and a group of high-level people looked at each other in surprise. After a while, the old Lu Temple Master bowed and said, "Please wait for a moment, Gu Zhenzai. The Taoist Lingbao Taoist Academy of Refining Equipment is in charge of my junior brother Ji Zhixian. I have to ask for his opinion on this matter." When Gu Yunli heard this, he didn't hold out much hope, thinking that he was looking for an excuse to go out and discuss things, so he immediately said: "Master Cao, please do as you wish." The old master of Lu Temple nodded and immediately led a group of senior executives away. After an incense stick of time, Master Cao and his companions returned. An old man with a goatee appeared in the crowd. He stepped out of the crowd and bowed, saying: "I am Ji Zhixian, and I am here to meet Gu Zhenzai." "You're welcome. I've heard a lot about you!" Gu Yunli stood up and returned the greeting. "I heard that Gu Zhenzai wants to practice the way of weapons. Is that true?" "Of course I take it seriously."
"For two hundred thousand sticks of incense every year, I will teach you everything I have learned. If you are not satisfied, you can leave at any time!" As soon as Ji Zhixian opened his mouth, he smelled of money. (End of this chapter)
