Once certain existences are confird, or even encountered, the phrase "there are gods three feet above one’s head" will be infinitely magnified.
Especially the ominousness that Patriarch Chen spoke of.
Even though he didn’t elaborate, the fact that he ntioned it suggests it must be quite terrifying.
Liu Ye thought for a mont and quickly assured, "Patriarch Chen, rest assured, I am already a follower of the Celestial Venerable. I will surely adhere to the teachings of the Celestial Venerable, doing good and avoiding evil."
Chen Jing, having always been outside, was unaware of many internal family matters, and his previous impression of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall was mostly that during holidays, families gathered in the village and would co here to worship.
Back then, everyone regarded it as a gathering activity, a chance for lively interaction, and never thought the Celestial Venerable Hall could possess such extraordinary power.
Especially since Mr. Liu clearly isn’t an ordinary person, otherwise, the county leaders wouldn’t go to such lengths to accompany him for his investnt.
Now, for this person to show such devotion, such humility in the Celestial Venerable Hall, is absolutely no illusion. The person couldn’t possibly be a fool.
If soone ascribed foolishness to such a person, they should reflect on their own condition, questioning why this person is a millionaire while they are not.
Outside, Chu Ping and Chen Kai were leading people to continuously observe the happenings inside the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall, exchanging puzzled glances at tis.
From their perspective, it seed like the Elder of the Chen Family was performing certain movents with Mr. Liu, but these movents were no different from those made by Taoist Sects outside during blessing ceremonies.
In fact, there was no mystical feeling, it seed quite ordinary, even using a duster to stroke Mr. Chen’s head lacked any peculiarity.
Chen Han naturally also noticed the two outside.
After so thought, he said to his aunt, "Aunt, please fold two more Peace Talismans and give them to the two gentlen outside the hall. They have contributed greatly to the developnt of our Chen Family."
The aunt glanced outside. Having been by the hall, she didn’t know who these people were, but she followed the patriarch’s instructions regardless.
Quickly, two more Peace Talismans were folded, placed into small Lucky Bags, and handed over to the patriarch.
Chen Han, with a gentle smile, carried the two Peace Talismans to the door of the hall, handing them to Chu Ping and Chen Kai: "Gentlen, this is a Peace Talisman, bringing ntal tranquility and inner peace, and aiding sleep. In gratitude for your support to the Chen Family, it’s yours!"
Chu Ping and Chen Kai instinctively wanted to refuse, feeling it inappropriate to accept such a thing. However, when Patriarch Chen placed the talismans in their hands, they saw an uncontrollable shock in his eyes.
The mont they touched the Peace Talisman, they felt a strange sensation.
Their ntal state seed to calm and their hearts were filled with an indescribable tranquility.
This feeling was unmistakable.
It suddenly erged the instant they touched the talisman.
Chu Ping tried handing the talisman to Chen Kai, and that feeling indeed disappeared instantly.
Chen Kai seed to understand his intention and imitated by placing the two talismans into Chu Ping’s hands, and just as expected, that sensation vanished instantly.
So, does the Peace Talisman really work?
The next mont, the two each took a talisman and dismissed the thought of returning them.
Faced with such a miracle, anyone would find it hard to stay calm.
Looking at the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Statue inside the hall, they couldn’t help but feel a newfound reverence.
Before, when visiting those mystical sects in the county, many things seed vague and intangible, impossible for them to experience. But now, with the Peace Talisman from the Chen Family firmly in their hands, they truly felt the mystique.
For the first ti in their lives, they experienced that there really are wondrous things in this world.
The impact they felt now was unimaginable.
Once the Peace Ritual concluded, Liu Ye naturally erged, respectfully performing a Daoist salute to Patriarch Chen.
He had learned it just now from the female elder of the Chen Family.
Not knowing if he did it right, it was his expression of piety.
Seeing the Peace Talismans in Chu Ping and Chen Kai’s hands, he sighed, "You two gentlen are truly fortunate; these are treasures personally blessed by the Celestial Venerable."
Chu Ping and Chen Kai exchanged glances, finding such words awkward given their positions.
Chen Kai cautiously asked, "Mr. Liu, what happened inside the hall just now?"
Liu Ye chuckled and said, "Director Chen, it was just a simple Peace Ritual for psychological comfort. What could happen? We must trust in science."
"..." Chen Kai now found the phrase ’trust in science’ quite absurd.
Ordinarily, that statent is quite correct.
People pray at those mystical sects, and many tourists visit, yet who would think anything special honestly happens?
If they hadn’t been forewarned of the Chen Family’s miracles, outsiders might simply dismiss it as fake, muttering, "What era is this, and people still fall for this?"
Or perhaps, like the Chen Family, those mystical sects may appear mundane, but internally, there could be sothing more, yet most people have no idea?
After all, not everyone is lucky enough to receive such Peace Talismans and forever remain ignorant about the wonders.
Chu Ping sensed the topic was unsuitable for prolongation and swiftly shifted it: "Mr. Liu, since you’ve finished visiting Patriarch Chen, shall we head to our county to extend our hospitality and entertain you?"
