Inside the Buddha Praise Heavenly Palace, many monks were busy.
There were only a few days left until the triennial Reincarnation Festival,
This grand festival required a lot of preparation,
Offerings needed to be prepared in advance; ritual implements also needed to be cleaned thoroughly. The construction and setup of the altar for the festival naturally required specialized personnel,
Thus, even in the heavy, dense snowfall where not a single sparrow could be seen, those monks, breathing white mist, donned their monk robes and worked fervently amidst the wind and snow.
Boba Golden Buddha sat in a spacious, steaming room, drinking tea.
A bright red charcoal stove dispelled the cold in the room. A beautiful, well-groomed female servant poured slightly salty tea for Boba.
While sipping the tea, Boba said to the person beside him, "Lord Longba, I've summoned you here for a matter."
