In order to compete for the popularity of incense, different religions compete with each other, and have come up with a variety of high-profile activities. Such as land and water dharma meeting, altar pilgrims, Christmas celebrations and so on. This sage is not another sage, and refers to the sanctity of both Buddhism and Taoism, such as Buddha, Daojun, and Niangniang.

Then, after seeing the endless stream of people who came to participate in the event, clever hawkers found business opportunities to make a fortune and created various small stalls to meet the needs.

There are religious activities led by the temple, and the market venues created by the merchants, and finally developed into the current temple fair.

Temples and fairs are indispensable.

Why does no one call the gathering of every five and ten a temple fair? Obviously the scale is similar, and it is the same lively.

To put it bluntly, it is because the elements related to temples are missing from the collection.

"So there is such a saying..." Nodding, looking at the tour guide with a little more approval, Shi Xiaolei continued to ask: "What activities are there at Baiyun Temple? I mean those are related to religion. of."

From the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty to the present, Tianjing was the capital of China.

There are not a few dignitaries and nobles, and they give much more money for sesame oil than ordinary people. This source of income has greatly promoted the development of temples and Taoist temples.

Moreover, the actions of dignitaries and nobles will play a role in the up and down, causing some ordinary pilgrims to come here.

In the end, these big figures, by virtue of their own or family power, support their favorite temples and Taoist temples like a protective umbrella.

It’s easy to get money, not bad for popularity, and you don’t have to worry about the trouble of coming to the door... Those who sincerely want to become a monk and practice, can’t do without food, drink and Lhasa. It could not be more ideal. For those who have ulterior motives and want to fish in troubled waters to benefit themselves, such a good opportunity should not be missed.

With the soil on which to breed, the development process will be much smoother than in other places, and the results will not be worse.

To this day, in this area of ​​the capital, there are more than one place where the first month temple fair will be held.

Ditan and Longtan Temple Fairs in Dongcheng District, Changdian and Daguanyuan Temple Fairs in Xicheng District, Chaoyang Park Temple Fair in Chaoyang District, Badachu and Amusement Park Temple Fairs in Shijingshan District, Canal Culture Square Temple Fair in Tongzhou District, Ancient Town Temple Fair in Miyun District and Pinggu District The Yajishan style temple fair, etc., if you just count it, you can point out a dozen.

Why didn't Shi Xiaolei choose the more famous Changdian temple fair with more participants? Ignore the Temple Fair of the Temple of Earth, which is closer to the Tianjing Hotel and more convenient to go back and forth? Didn't you go to the Longfu temple meeting recommended by the girls at the front desk?

Of course there is a reason.

I didn't go to the Changdian Temple Fair and the Ditan Temple Fair because those temple fairs were too famous and attracted too many tourists.

Although visiting the temple fair is a lively event, in the final analysis, the items that can be seen and played at the temple fair are the key to attracting tourists to join in the fun. If there are too many people, there will be no chance to participate in the experience when you go to the temple fair, and you will be overwhelmed by the crowd... Even if you are not irritable at the time, when you calm down, you will inevitably feel empty and regretful.

What's more, there are two little girls, Conna and Skye, by her side.

If the flow of people is too large, they are separated from them because of the crowd...

I'm not worried about Kang Na. After all, that girl's body is a giant dragon. If there is an accident, only the bad guys will be unlucky. But Skye is different. Although she has an alien blood, in the final analysis, she is still a little girl who has not grown up. On her own, she still can't deal with those wicked people with evil intentions.

To be on the safe side, Shi Xiaolei first excluded the Changdian Temple Fair, Ditan Temple Fair, and several other famous temple fairs that were repeatedly listed in the top eight or top ten rankings.

I didn't accept the receptionist's suggestion and went to the temple fair at Longfu Temple...

It's not because the girl at the front desk said that my uncle opened a small shop over there, and I know him very well. I can call him and ask him to show you around, which made Shi Xiaolei suspicious, thinking that she was doing it for her relatives. The solicitation deliberately exaggerated the prosperity of the Longfu Temple Fair, so he deliberately avoided the unremarkable temple fair.

You know, when the two were talking, Stark and Pepper were also watching.

No one knows how much he is worth, but Stark's richness is obvious. As a practitioner in the service industry, and as a receptionist at the front desk, with the girl's double business, she will definitely not pull out that kind of lie that can be easily debunked in front of a big money like Stark.

I didn't choose the Longfu Temple Club, just because of Shi Xiaolei's personal preference.

Before crossing the road, I occasionally read online novels to pass the time, among which there are also a few fairy tales. As we all know, in the novels of immortals and cultivators, Buddhist characters either appear as villains, or they are supporting roles with very few scenes, and the Taoist forces, which are dominated by sectarians and immortals, are the protagonists in the plot... When I was a child, I had a good impression of Buddhism because of Journey to the West, which was not only consumed by these novels, but even deducted some impression points.

And after traveling through the Marvel Cinematic Universe...

Living in Chinatown all the time~lightnovelpub.net~ Some Chinese elements that I can come into contact with in daily life include some parts related to Taoism. For example, the conditioning medicated diet based on the five elements Yin-Yang theory, the massage and acupuncture in the traditional Chinese medicine restaurant, the neighbors who open the store every day will worship the God of Wealth with incense and so on.

In addition, Huaguo Kungfu, which is the most representative in the eyes of foreigners, is also an example.

Without further ado, let's take a look at the names of those martial arts. Taijiquan, Baguazhang, Xingyiquan, Bajiquan, no matter which one, you can see at a glance that it must be inseparable from the culture and philosophy of Taoism.

As for the types of boxing that can be related to Buddhism, if you think about it carefully, the more popular ones are probably Wing Chun and Hong Boxing.

With the impressions from reading novels before the time-travel, coupled with the impressions accumulated in daily life after the time-travel, Shi Xiaolei will be closer to Taoism, which is also a normal thing.

As for why Baiyunguan was finally chosen.

First of all, it is because of the Taoism-related temple fairs, which have a lot of fame, and in comparison, it is more worth visiting.

Second, it was also because of the recommendation of the local tour guide who was introduced by Peng Mingwei.

As for traveling, it’s not interesting where it’s fun, so it’s best to listen to the comments of the locals. After all, you are away from home, and it is always right to listen to more advice when you are not familiar with the place in your life.

"If you want to talk about the tricks in Baiyunguan, there are actually only a few. Now it's not as good as before. I heard from my grandfather that when he was young, he was at the Baiyunguan Temple Fair..."
