Chapter 5995
The Charismatic Charlie Wade
Because Marven is not in Wrestvel, Nanako has been studying martial arts wholeheartedly for the past few days.
She simply lives in the dormitory of Champs Elysees most of the time, and only occasionally comes back to accompany her father.
Yesterday, Takehiko missed his daughter, so he had someone prepare a sumptuous Japanese banquet.
He called Nanako back, and the father and daughter had a meal together.
Banquets are generally sumptuous and complicated, and it is common to eat a meal in two or three hours,
So Nanako did not rush back to the Champs Elysees last night but stayed at home for one night.
In order not to delay her morning practice,
She got up quickly at dawn, washed briefly, and prepared to drive to the Champs-Elysees.
When taking the elevator to the basement and passing by the ninth floor, the elevator slowly stopped,
The car door opened, and a young woman about the same age as Nanako stepped into the elevator.
Nanako didnât pay attention. The woman entered the elevator while making a phone call and said mysteriously:
âOh, I didnât expect it to be so early. I just heard from a layman inside Qixia Temple that the famous Master was taught by Master Jingqing.â
âHe has been invited to come to Qixia Temple to give a lecture. He will arrive in an hour or two.â
âI heard that he will take some time to consecrate and bless the believers.â
âThe amulets consecrated and blessed by Master Jingqing are very effective.â
âI plan to ask for one for my husband. He lives in the world every year. Flying around and running around, asking for an amulet to protect him.â
Another woman on the other end of the phone asked curiously:
âYou can get amulets from every temple, whatâs so surprising about the one blessed by Master Jingqing?â
Then The woman said: âMaster Jingqing is very famous. He is invited to preach Buddhism all over the world all year round.â
âEvery time he lectures, he will consecrate and bless magic weapons for some believers for free.â
âHe lectured at Mount Putuo some time ago, and the tickets for Mount Putuo were sold out for a week in a row.â
âThe magic weapons blessed by him are resold in the circle of believers for prices starting from six figures.â
As she said that, the woman added: âXinxin helped her husband in Mount Wutai last year to ask for a magic weapon that was consecrated and blessed by Master Jingqing. The amulet was involved in a series of car accidents on the highway last year and was rear-ended by an overloaded truck.â
âHe was the only one alive among the eight people in the three vehicles. He was fine but the amulet was broken. Do you think this thing is quite effective?â
Then The woman said in surprise: âI only knew that her husband was in a car accident last year, and I didnât know about it.â
At this time, the elevator had reached the underground garage. After the elevator door opened, the woman walked out and said:
âThis matter of his second visit to Wrestvel has not been announced to the public yet, and it is estimated that it will be announced tonight.â
âOnce the news is announced, devout believers from hundreds of kilometers around will probably want to see the Master,â
âAnd it will be difficult to arrange it by then, so I plan to go there early and wait, if you are interested, we will go there together.â
Nanako followed the woman out of the elevator. She has been studying martial arts recently, and her hearing has also improved,
So she can still hear the womanâs excitement on the phone who said: âThen I will prepare now. Where can we meet?â
The woman said: âYou come out to the gate of the community now, and I will pick you up there.â
Nanako couldnât help but feel secretly moved when she heard this.
Inspired by the memory of her mother during her lifetime, she has always believed in Buddhism and can be considered a devout Buddhist believer.
When she was in Kyoto, she often went to the Kinkakuji Temple to worship Buddha and make offerings.
Last time, for Marven, she went to the Kinkakuji Temple to pray for a royal guard for him.
Now she suddenly heard that a well-known eminent monk from China was coming to Qixia Temple to give lectures and also bless the devotees with amulets.
The first thing she thought of was to ask for one for Marven.
Although Marvenâs strength is already the strongest Nanako has ever seen, in her opinion, the theological or metaphysical blessing of religion itself is another kind of soft power beyond hard power.
In a sense, it is also essential.
Itâs like although soldiers have powerful weapons and equipment,
They still pray for Godâs blessing deep in their hearts before going to the battlefield.
So, Nanako took two steps quickly, caught up with the woman in front of her, and said with an apologetic look:
âSorry to bother you, I didnât mean to eavesdrop on your phone call,â
âI just heard you talking about the amulet, so I would like to ask you a question how can I ask Master Jingqing to consecrate and bless an amulet?â
The woman was slightly startled, and then said with a smile:
âThis is simple, you go directly to the Dharma and Martial Arts Circulation Office of Qixia Temple and say that you are invited to visit Jingqing.â
âItâs a mage. The master there will take you to the Xiangtang to wait. Not many people know this news. You should have a chance if you go there early!â
Nanako quickly thanked her: âThank you so much!â
âYouâre welcome.â The woman smiled and said,
âYou live here too. We should be neighbors, right?â
âYes.â Nanako nodded and said, âMy home is on the 21st floor.â
The woman smiled and said, âI live on the ninth floor and I just bought it a few days ago.â
âI moved here because my husband is busy with business in other places all year round.â
âI basically live here alone. You can come visit me when you have time.â
After that, the other party did not wait for Nanakoâs reply and said:
âLetâs not talk about it for now. âYes, I have to pick up my friend quickly. Her home is in the opposite direction from Mountain.â
âIt will take a lot of time on the way. You should hurry up and go first. The sooner the better.â
Nanako quickly thanked her and watched the other party get in the car and drive away.
After that, she got into the car and started the car to go to Qixia Temple.
The two cars left the basement of Tomson one after another.
Then one went to the left and the other to the right, and soon the distance was widened.
After driving for a few minutes, the woman in the car in front picked up the phone and dialed.
After the call was connected, she said: âSister Sun, Nanako should have already left for Qixia Temple.â
On the other side, after receiving the call, Sister Sun spoke:
âOkay, I understand, she didnât doubt you, right?â
The woman replied: âProbably not, besides, even if there is suspicion, it can withstand scrutiny.â
âI have lived here for several days, so I am not afraid of her checking.â
Sister Sun smiled slightly and said: âOkay, you go pick up your friend and rush here as usual.â
âBut if everything goes well, Nanako should have left by the time you arrive.â
âBut for the whole show, you have to come here first.â
âOkay, Sister Sun.â
After hanging up the phone, Sister Sun immediately came to Margaretâs side and said respectfully:
âMadam, Miss Ito should be on her way here.â
âAs soon as you arrive in Wrestvel, you will have someone buy a house downstairs from Itoâs house. Itâs really far-sighted.â
Margaret smiled slightly and said, âI canât say far-sighted. I just really like this girl, so I decided to take one more step.â
Sister Sun asked tentatively: âMadam, Miss Ito and Miss Gu, which one do you prefer?â
