Chapter: 5239

For six centuries, the ancestors of the Lin family have indeed undergone great hardships. In between, there were many national crises and changes in the wind. Many noble families throughout history have had their lineages broken off, but our family has managed to continue its lineage until today. This is already a great stroke of luck, as seen by Lin Wen'er.

Meditating for a moment, Lin Wen'er inserted the three incense sticks into the incense burner and then suppressed her tears before entering the Daxiong Baodian.

Inside the Daxiong Baodian, a 10-meter-tall statue of Buddha stood at the center.

On the floor in front of the Buddha statue, there were three meditation cushions for kowtowing, and Lin Wen'er entered when one of the people on the left cushion just got up, so she walked forward and knelt down before the Buddha statue with her hands clasped together, eyes half-closed, murmuring to herself: "Buddha above, disciple Lin Wen'er, humbly request Buddha's protection, may I live for a few more years and take revenge on my father's killer. After taking revenge, I will return to the Foggy Temple to burn incense and restore my physical form!"

Just as Lin Wen'er was making her solemn vow, Ma Erhan entered the Daxiong Baodian with Xiao Churan's help, limping along.

Since Ma Erhan had broken her right leg, Xiao Churan supported her on the right side, leaving the middle and right meditation cushions empty, so Xiao Churan helped Ma Erhan walk forward to where Lin Wen'er was kneeling.

Ma Erhan's right leg was wrapped in a cast, making it difficult for her to kneel down, so she simply stretched her right leg behind her like an athlete taking off, with her left knee bent, looking rather comical but also showing her sincere devotion.

Subsequently, Ma Erhan opened her mouth with a pious expression and said: "Buddha above, please protect me for three days from now. Please protect my live streaming so that it can explode in popularity and bring in big money. Additionally, I hope you will open your eyes to see what kind of scoundrel that Qi Hongyan is right now! Let her turn over a new leaf. The gods also have an unbearable responsibility! Even the Monkey King in Journey to the West says that the Buddha above and Jade Emperor are very close friends, so please remind him about this, and if he doesn't open his eyes, I hope you can open them..."

Lin Wen'er was solemnly praying when she suddenly heard a woman nearby murmuring all these absurd things, causing her one eyebrow to involuntarily wrinkle. After she finished her prayer, she couldn't help but look up and see Ma Erhan standing there talking nonsense: "Buddha above, you don't know that Qi Hongyan is not someone you can mess with! It was she who nearly destroyed me at the beginning..."

Xiao Churan also couldn't help but glance at her mom, looking embarrassed and softly reminding her, "Mom... what are you saying here..."

Best wishes to all readers for a Happy New Year and all your endeavors!

Ma Erhan, who was praying, was suddenly interrupted by her daughter. She had a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, saying, "Ah, I'm asking the Buddha to bless me, what are you doing, really...?"

Xiao Churan whispered softly, reminding her, "You can't talk to the Buddha like that... If you want to seek wealth, just ask and let the Buddha help you achieve your wishes. What are you saying all those things for? Are you asking the Buddha to punish someone?"

"Yes!" Ma Erhan said sternly, her face dead serious. "I want the Buddha to punish her thoroughly! In this world of over 8 billion people, who can't become rich except for her?"

Ma Erhan continued, "According to what I understand, the Jade Emperor is in charge of our area. If Qi Hongyan becomes rich through means that are not his own, it's a failure on his part. He needs to be severely criticized by the Buddha above!"

Xiao Churan rubbed her temples in frustration, saying, "People say you should always do good and strive for goodness. Your negative thoughts towards others will be seen as improper behavior before the Buddha. How can the Buddha possibly bless someone with such behavior?"

"What?" Ma Erhan was indignant and refuted, "I'm not jealous of others being good; I'm just jealous that Qi Hongyan is being too successful! You should know that this Qi Hongyan is just terrible!"

Xiao Churan said, "She's bad because she's got issues with herself. You don't need to mention it here..."

Ma Erhan puckered up her face and said, "In life, you can even call 110 to report bad people or things. What's wrong with me talking to Buddha? Is Buddha not as good at doing something as a police officer? If he doesn't understand this kind of thing, then he's not qualified to be Buddha!"

Xiao Churan heard Ma Erhan's ridiculous reasoning and didn't know how to respond.

Lín Wánér standing beside her had already been stunned into silence.

She may have seen many things, but she rarely saw a woman as foolish and ignorant as Ma Erhan. She even went so far as to shout loudly in front of the Buddha's statue.

As soon as she thought about her impertinence and disrespect towards Buddha, Lín Wánér couldn't help but speak up: "The Buddhist path has three poisons, which are greed, anger, and delusion. Greed is seeking something that never satisfies, while anger is resentful of the current situation and hatred towards others. Delusion is a confused mind, being foolish and ignorant. Common people usually have one or two of these poisons, it's rare to see someone with all three, and Buddha has a spirit. How can he bless someone with all three poisons?"

Ma Erhan was taken aback, looked sideways at Lín Wánér, saw her hands clasped together and eyes slightly closed, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Hey, are you talking about me? Are you scolding me like this in front of Buddha's statue?"

Lín Wánér opened her eyes, looked at Ma Erhan, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, I was just muttering to myself in front of Buddha, possibly disturbing you. Please forgive me." JrNovels.com
