Chapter 6824
The Charismatic Charlie Wade
Claire asked curiously,
âHow come we came back empty-handed?â
âIsnât Qixia Temple open today?â
âItâs open.â
Maglina shrugged and said,
âItâs just that I mistook Master Jingqingâs arrival for wrong.â
âHe is coming to Qixia Temple tomorrow.â
âBut I remembered it wrong.â
âI went there early this morning.â
âMaster Jingqing?â
Claire frowned and murmured,
âI seem to have heard of this name somewhere.â
Maglina smiled and said,
âMaster Jingqing is very famous.â
âHe is one of the youngest eminent monks in the country.â
âHis understanding of Buddhism far exceeds that of ordinary monks.â
âIn the past one or two years, he has traveled to major temples across the country.â
âPreached to believers, and blessed Dharma objects for them.â
âIt is said that the health amulets and peace amulets he blessed are the most effective.â
âIs that true?â
Claire asked in surprise.
âOf course itâs true!â
Maglina said, âMs. Xiao, why donât we go to Qixia Temple together tomorrow morning, at 7 oâclock?â
âSo we can come back without being late for work.â
âWe can buy some amulets for your husband and your parents.â
Claire smiled and said,
âMy husband seems to know a lot about Feng Shui.â
âHe can make amulets himself and gave me one a long time ago.â
âThatâs different.â
Maglina said very seriously,
âFeng Shui should be the I Ching and Bagua,â
âWhich is closer to Chinese Taoism.â
âMaster Jingqing is a Buddhist master,â
âAnd his amulets are from Buddhism,â
âJust like Android phones and Apple phones, with different underlying architectures.â
Claire was amused by her logic and metaphor, and said happily,
âMaglina, you are really talented.â
âYou can come up with this metaphor, but have you ever thought about it,â
âWhether itâs Android or Apple, isnât it enough to have one?â
Maglina said seriously,
âMr. Xiao, you know Indians, they believe in tens of millions of different gods,â
âBut the key is that they can worship gods when they see them.â
âWhy? Isnât it just for an extra layer of protection?â
âUsually, when I encounter difficulties, I ask for the blessing of the gods.â
âAnd I always ask from the Gods of the East and the West.â
âWhat if one of the gods is not at home,â
âAnd one of the gods just passes by?â
âThen I have a better chance?â
As she said, she raised her eyebrows and smiled,
âMr. Xiao, let me demonstrate it to you.â
After that, she closed her eyes, put her hands together, and said piously:
âGod, Jesus, Buddha, Bodhisattva, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, your little daughter Maglina,â
âI ask all the gods to bless me to get rich and live a hundred years long,â
âAmitabha, Amen Amen, hurry up and pay heed to my request.â
Claire was amused by her serious look and said,
âThis is the first time I see you worshiping gods like this.â
âGreat, isnât it?â
Maglina said with a smile:
âThese are all my unique tricks.
How about it, Mr. Xiao, do you want to go together tomorrow?â
âWorship more gods, have an extra layer of protection.â
âAnd it doesnât cost money.â
âJust buy a ticket to Qixia Temple.â
âYou wonât suffer a loss or be cheated.â
Claire saw Maglinaâs quirky energy and liked and appreciated her character very much.
The company has grown and developed over the past year,
And there are dozens of employees,
But most of them are actually old hands in the workplace, deep in the city, and scheming.
Maglina is different.
She has a serious attitude towards work,
Never complains about being tired, and is smart and studious,
Which makes Claire plan to focus on training her.
And Maglinaâs words really moved her.
Anyway, getting up a little earlier,
Whether it is useful or not, she will not harm herself and her family.
So she smiled and said, âOkay, Iâll believe you this time.â
âLetâs meet at the gate of Qixia Temple at seven oâclock tomorrow morning!â
Maglina said happily, âGreat!â
âThen we have a deal, Ms. Xiao!â
