Chapter 34: The First Visit to the Division
On the day off, Mu Fanji hung the auxiliary exercises of the "Pure Demon Heart Sutra", thinking that it was better to find the master first and quickly get things done, although the mood of reciting the "Pure Demon Heart Sutra" every night was comfortable, and the spiritual platform was clear, but there was no auxiliary exercise, and there was always a feeling of a knife hanging over his head.
It's been a while since the last headache, and I'm still a little weak in my heart, I don't know when the knife will fall, Master Fu Tian asked to go to his house at least once a month, although he didn't want to stay with his super cheeky person, but the first day off still ran over.
Following the navigation, Mu Fan turned around and finally came to the address that Fu Tian said - Fujia Village.
"Master, Master Fu, Bufu Daoren, I'm here, where are you?"
Mu Fan entered a dilapidated courtyard, shouted several times at the door but no one answered, checked the address and was correct, so he went in by himself.
Entering the outer courtyard and pushing open the inner door, a strong smell of burning choked into the nose, the room was filled with smoke, and a larger stone statue that came into view for the first time could vaguely be seen to be Taoist decoration, and the stone statue seat was lined with rows of dense spiritual seats.
The incense sticks were burning, the smoke was so big that my eyes were a little uncomfortable, I couldn't see what was written clearly, and I didn't dare to go in.
"Is this a home or a temple, my God, can you live in people", Mu Fan choked uncomfortably.
"Master, is Master Fu inside? Can you come out?", Mu Fan took a deep breath outside and shouted a few more times inside.
Still didn't respond, thinking that I had called him before I came, it wouldn't be something to go, and I didn't say anything, so I opened the door to the maximum, ready to make the smoke inside smaller, and it would be good to go in and stay stunned for a while.
While waiting, I called Fu Tian, but I couldn't get through, and I didn't know where he died, and after waiting for a while, the smoke was small and I wanted to wait inside, and I didn't drink water along the way, so I wanted to find water to drink.
As soon as Mu Fan's foot stepped into the threshold, a heart-piercing headache suddenly came, and there seemed to be a bunch of ghosts crying wolf howls in his mind, so painful that he immediately withdrew one foot and squatted down.
But the strange thing is that as soon as he retracted that foot, it immediately stopped hurting, and the time reaction was very short, and Mu Fan thought it was an illusion.
So I stepped in again, but it was the same ghost crying wolf howling in great pain.
"What the hell, this gate is still equipped with a brainwave jamming device?", Mu Fan thought that he had hit an evil spirit, and did not step into it again, but looked inside again.
Now the smoke was not as thick as before, and the scene inside was clearer than before, and when he looked at the stone statue decorated by the Taoist family, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
The stone statue was actually looking at him, and it didn't notice or see its eyes clearly, but now its eyes were sharp, as if it was about to shoot light and destroy him.
Seeing Mu Fan's goosebumps, he looked at it as if his soul was about to be sucked away by it, and he couldn't help but take a few steps backwards with trepidation, and sat on the cement of the small courtyard sweating profusely.
At this time, there was a creaking sound at the outer door of the courtyard, and Fu Tian returned.
"Xiao Fan, you are here, why are you sitting on the ground, why are you still sweating profusely?", Fu Tian helped Mu Fan up and asked puzzledly.
"It's nothing, your place is so scary, why do you live here?", Mu Fan saw that the master was back, and his mood calmed down a little.
"Horror? What are you talking about, I've lived here with my master since I was a child, apprentice, come in, meet my grandfather."
Fu Tian walked in first, and called Mu Fan to go in inside, Mu Fan shook his body and followed in.
The strange thing is that this time there is no headache just now, and when I look up at the stone statue again, the stone statue's eyes are closed.
"Did I really see the hell just now?", Mu Fan said as he rubbed his eyes and patted his head.
"What are you talking nonsense, what kind of foolish thing are you talking about? Master Zu is here, which demon and monster dare to approach, come, give incense to all Master Zu"
Fu Tian knocked Mu Fan's head and handed three lit incense sticks to Mu Fan.
"Master, this stone statue is the ancestor, who are those spirit cards next to it?", there are too many spirit cards, and the words are too small to read clearly.
"Don't call it that, your kid doesn't have a lot of things, it seems that I still have to teach you, this is the founding Taoist ancestor of our sect, this is his Faxiang, you can't call it indiscriminately, those next to it are the tablets of the head of the Liedai, a total of three hundred and sixty-three"
Fu Tian said proudly: "Didn't you ask me last time who I was in the last ten generations?
"Wow, there are really so many generations, master, you shouldn't have just named it yourself, it's enough to support the façade?"
Counting Fu Tian and Mu Fan himself, it has indeed been passed down to the three hundred and sixty-fifth generation, although Mu Fan believes it a little, but he still feels incredible, after all, it is too long to calculate it like this, and human civilization has not been so long.
There is no need to dwell on these, after the incense, hurry up and talk to the master about the business, learn the auxiliary exercises and leave early.
Mu Fan bowed three times and then inserted incense on the incense burner, but he tried hard, but he didn't plug it steadily, and after making a lot of effort, the incense was inserted in half of his body, and he still fell down as soon as he let go.
"It shouldn't be, what's going on?", Mu Fan was very depressed, this incense burner seemed to be against him, but it was unstable.
"What are you doing, such a big person is still playing", Fu Tian watched Mu Fan plug in and out one after another, like a child playful, and complained again.
"I didn't play, I can't plug it steadily", Mu Fan was said by Fu Tian to be playing, and he was so angry that he inserted it faster.
"It's really, clumsy, how can you learn anything else", he snatched the incense from Mu Fan's hand as he spoke, and easily plugged it in, and said after inserting: "It's not playing, isn't this very easy to put?"
"Huh, just plug it in a little bit and put it down, can this stove still recognize people?", Mu Fan was a little confused.
"Disciple Fu Tian, the 364th descendant of the Lingxuan Dao Sect respectfully invites the Taoist ancestor master, and today brings the 365th descendant Mu Fan to ask for instructions in front of the spirit, in order to promote our Taoist Xuanfa, according to the time and conditions, first pass on the exercises, and then enter my door, please ask the ancestor for permission"
After Fu Tian finished reading the invitation, he pulled Mu Fan and knelt down together. But it doesn't matter if you kneel, after kneeling, the three incense sticks that Mu Fan burned just now were extinguished at once.
Mu Fan was absent-minded, raised his head early, and was startled when he found that the incense was extinguished, Fu Tian also raised his head at this time and found this situation, he looked at Mu Fan, and felt that Mu Fan was not sincere enough, so the master disagreed.
He knocked Mu Fan on the head again and said, "Be sincere, don't raise your head so early, let's ask again."
So Fu Tian re-lit the three incense sticks, and recited the invitation again, this time he knelt down on Mu Fan's head.
However, when I looked up, I found that the three incense sticks were still extinguished.
"What can I do about this, the Dao Ancestors don't agree, but I have already taught you a set of mental methods, what to do, what to do", Fu Tian suddenly became nervous, pacing around the house.
Suddenly, Fu Tian stopped, as if he had made up his mind, ran to the incense cabinet and took out a one-meter-high incense, lit it and handed it to Mu Fan, and then said:
"Mu Fan, hold this incense stick, bow to the ground, don't get up without me saying it"
Mu Fan looked at him with a very serious expression, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to do it, he thought that Fu Tian might have made some big moves. I thought, is it to open the altar?
