Chapter 4596 Showing your trump card

Zhang Tianshi always felt that if Zhang Yu suddenly came to the Tianshi Mansion at this time, it would definitely not be as simple as simply improving the seal script. Yesterday, another foreign Taoist priest from England came to pay homage to the mountain. There must be a connection between this. But what exactly is going on, Zhang Tianshi has never figured out the reason.

Now that it's all right, Zhang Yu and John Brown came with their disciples to pay homage to them. What's going on should probably be explained clearly this time.

When Zhang Tianshi said this, Zhang Yinling immediately bowed and retreated.

After the girl left the back hall, Zhang Tianshi glanced at everyone present and said with a smile: "What is supposed to come has finally come... Let's see what tricks Zhang Yu can pull off..."

Zhang Tianshi and everyone were waiting in the hall. Less than ten minutes later, a disciple reported outside the hall that Zhang Yu and John Brown had led their disciples to pay homage to the Tianshi.

Sitting in the palace, one could already see Zhang Yu and a group of Taoist priests coming over and waiting not far from the palace door.

Zhang Tianshi looked at Master Zhang this time and made a gesture. Master Zhang understood immediately, stood up and came outside the temple, shouting loudly: "According to Tianshi's decree, please invite Wudang Taoist Temple Zhang Yu, and John Brown, the master of Yingji Sanqing Temple, to lead fellow disciples." Disciple, please enter the palace!"

Zhang Yu and others outside the hall stood very elegantly. Zhang Yu naturally stood at the front. To his left was John Brown, and to his right was Brighton. Behind the three of them, there were others.

After Zhang Tianshi finished speaking, Zhang Yu shouted loudly: "Thank you, Tianshi."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the palace gate.

When John Brown and Brydon saw Zhang Yu move, they also moved forward, and the others followed immediately.

Everyone entered the hall together, and Zhang Yu and others immediately paid tribute to the Heavenly Master according to Taoist etiquette. After the ceremony, Zhang Tianshi had to say some polite words to express condolences to the foreign Taoist priests who had come from afar.

After thinking for a while, John Brown took out a document bag from his arms and said: "Master Heavenly Master, since our Yingjili Sanqing Temple has been included in the Wudang Taoist Temple, its scale has grown day by day, and the number of disciples has gradually increased. Not only In this way, Taoism in Yingji has also become more and more prosperous. Here is the roster of Yingji Zhengyi Sect, as well as the information about Yingji Zhengyi Sect’s Taoist temples. I also asked the Celestial Master to review it and provide guidance."

"Oh?" Zhang Tianshi didn't expect that John Brown would actually bring out such an important thing. He immediately said: "Bring it to me for a review."

Zhang Zhenren, who accompanied Zhang Yu and others in, immediately walked up to John Brown, took the document bag, and then brought it to Zhang Tianshi, presenting it to Zhang Tianshi with both hands.

Zhang Tianshi opened the document bag himself and took out the information inside. I have to say that there is quite a lot of information here, a thick stack, including photos and descriptions of many Taoist temples, as well as lists of various Taoist temples.

Among them, the Sanqing Temple is the largest. Of course, when Zhang Yu went there, Sanqing Temple was really nothing. Later, after re-expansion, the scale has been far greater than before. Not only that, many people in towns and urban areas have begun to embrace Taoism and even converted to Sanqing Guan.

There are thousands of people who have taken refuge in Sanqing Temple alone. Not only that, there are also records about merits and merits, as well as the merits handed over to the Tianshi Mansion this year.

Naturally, the merits paid by Sanqing Temple are not much, far less than those of domestic Taoist sects. However, this is the first time that a foreign Taoist temple has paid merit to the Tianshi Mansion, which is absolutely unprecedented.

After seeing it, Zhang Tianshi couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, very good... I can't believe that overseas Taoist temples are developing so fast now... This is also a big breakthrough in cultural exchanges between the East and the West. ...John Brown, I don’t know if you have any difficulties over there. If there are any, just tell me...we at Tianshi Mansion will never stand idly by..."

This was originally a polite remark, but Zhang Tianshi did not expect that as soon as he said this, John Brown immediately said: "Then thank Tianshi first... To be honest, we belong to Wudang Taoist Temple and both belong to Zhengyi Sect. But we have never received the seal script... Since the Heavenly Master asked us if we had any difficulties, the disciples told us directly, we hope that the Tianshi Mansion will grant Wudang Taoist Temple the right to grant seal script overseas, so that our overseas Zhengyi Taoist temples, Then you can get the seal seal..."

Zhang Yu had previously brought Allardyce and the others to Yingtan, and then asked Wang Chunlan to take Allardyce and the others to Hongdu Airport in order to pick up John Brown and his party, and then go to the Tianshi Mansion to worship the mountain.

This time, Zhang Yu asked John Brown to make full preparations and fully bring him the current development of Taoism in England. Especially regarding the Three Purities Concept, all the information is needed.

Sanqing Guan developed very well, especially after Zhang Yu won the championship in the Eastern and Western Astrology and Feng Shui Exchange Conference. Many people in the town began to convert to Sanqing Guan. Of course, according to Zhang Yu, there is no conflict between Taoism and Christianity and Catholicism. They are all about advising people to do good, so they can be enveloped together.

As a result, many people in the town converted to Sanqing Guan.

When Zhang Yu came to the Tianshi Mansion this time, of course he wanted to ask for an explanation. But we can't let the Tianshi Mansion hold a new seal ceremony. That's obviously impossible. You can stop it with just one sentence.

Therefore, Zhang Yu simply used John Brown's words to ask Tianshi Mansion for the right to award seal script overseas. It cannot be said that the domestic Taoist sect is a Taoist sect, but the foreign Taoist sect is not. Everyone worships the Three Pure Ones and is also a Zhengyi sect.

Overseas Taoist disciples should also enjoy the obligation to teach seal scripts, and this task should obviously be left to Wudang Taoist Temple.

After listening to John Brown's words, Zhang Tianshi reacted immediately. He secretly said in his heart, "Hey Zhang Yu, it turns out you are waiting for me here."

Zhang Tianshi immediately said: "The right to grant seal scripts cannot be granted easily. It must have a lot of functions to obtain this honor. Wudang Taoist Temple has only been established for one year. Although it has made a lot of merits for our Taoism, it is far from enough to obtain this honor." Honor. However... those who belong to the Zhengyi Sect in overseas Taoist temples should also be awarded the seal script. I believe that when the seal script award ceremony is held next year, they can go to the Baimei Palace to receive the seal script as usual... or go to Tianshi Mansion will directly teach seal script..."

What he said was very clear. You don't have the authority to confer seal script in a Taoist temple. That's impossible. You're not qualified enough. However, disciples of Taoist temples overseas can receive the seal script, either by going to Baimei Palace, or directly coming to Tianshi Mansion, both are fine.

Zhang Yu had long expected that Zhang Tianshi would say this, so he followed up and said: "Qi Tianshi, there are many overseas Taoist audiences. Many foreign Taoist priests don't even know Mandarin, so they recite translated scriptures. In addition, when coming to China, the journey is long. It is far away, which may cause inconvenience. The disciples believe that if the seal-teaching dojo is located in England, it will not only be convenient, but it can also highlight the style of our Zhengyi Sect."
