Volume 1 Rooting Beaulieu Chapter 034 True Skill
In addition to the Longshan Black Tiger Rune pen held by Niu Decao in his right hand, the Dragon and Tiger Bronze Bell on his left hand actually has a saying.
Among the Taoist gates, the most common is the Sanqing Bell, which is an important magic weapon in the process of Taoist practice.
Sanqing bell is also known as emperor bell, law bell, law bell, bell book.
The Sanqing bell is generally about 20 centimeters high, about 9 centimeters in diameter, made of brass, with a handle and a tongue in the bell.
The upper end of the handle is called the sword, which is in the shape of a "mountain" to symbolize the meaning of the three clears.
"Taiqing Jade Book" Volume 5: "The so-called Taoist hand handle the emperor's bell, throwing fire for thousands of miles, and flowing bells are also eight chongs."
This is because Sanqingling has the effect of sΓ©ance and demon exorcism.
However, there is a slight difference between the dragon and tiger copper bell of Niu Decao and the ordinary Sanqing bell.
First of all, the dragon and tiger copper bell is made of copper, why did you choose copper?
Because the material of copper is purer, copper will show a rose-red color in the case of oxidation, and red is given a different meaning in the Daomen.
Secondly, the normal height of the Sanqing Bell is twenty centimeters upwards, but the height of the Dragon Tiger Copper Bell is only eighteen centimeters, so the Dragon Tiger Copper Bell looks more delicate and small.
Why is the dragon tiger copper bell eighteen centimeters and not twenty centimeters?
This is not only because copper was a scarce metal in ancient times, but also because the number eighteen represents the height of the sky above the head to the Daomen.
In addition to the above two points, the 'sword' at the upper end of the Sanqing bell is composed of three 'mountains', symbolizing the thunder and thunder, the main killing, the main suppression.
While Niu Decao was preparing for today's rituals, Zhou Dali's father, Zhou Ziqing, came to the courtyard.
The little granddaughter fell asleep, and Zhou Ziqing took advantage of this gap to come out and take a look at the young man recommended by Li Quanyi.
Zhou Ziqing wants to see how the young people in front of the altar are?
In fact, Zhou Ziqing himself was also skeptical of this young man.
When Zhou Ziqing saw Niu Decao wearing a Jiuyang scarf, wearing a nine-purple robe, pedaling on cloud shoes, holding a dragon and tiger copper bell in his left hand and a black tiger talisman pen in his right hand, his doubts seemed to be dispelled.
Although Zhou Ziqing is not a person in the Taoist sect, he has dealt with Li Quanyi for a long time in the past, and he has seen a lot of cold knowledge in the world, and the dress of Niu Decao in front of him is not unfamiliar to Zhou Ziqing.
Zhou Ziqing didn't come forward to say hello to Niu Decao, and stood in place as if thinking about something, probably worried about his little granddaughter's condition.
Zhou Dali saw his father come out, he moved his steps and came to his father, and Mei Tengda and Liu Wanli also followed.
Zhou Dali: "Father, why did you come out?"
Zhou Ziqing: "Li Hua is asleep, I'll come out to take a look." Dali, what do you think of this afterlife?"
It seems to be a dialogue between father and son, but it is not behind Mei Tengda and Liu Wanli, and the Zhou family's father and son are in place.
Zhou Dali: "I won't tell you, I secretly investigated some of his situation last night, and I learned about Qianlongniu's house by the way." β
Zhou Ziqing: "Oh, then what did you learn?"
Zhou Dali: "It's the basic situation of some Niu families, this Niu family is a famous feng shui family within a radius of hundreds of miles, and several generations seem to be engaged in the profession of Mr. Yin and Yang." β
Zhou Ziqing: "Are there anything else?"
Zhou Dali: "Tengda, you tell the old man about the specific situation." β
Mei Tengda: "Well, Mr. Zhou, let's talk about the cow grass first." β
Niu Decao is the third generation of the Qianlong Niu family, and Niu Decao's grandfather is still alive, but he is eighty-nine years old.
Old Man Niu doesn't come out much to participate in mundane affairs now, and is in a state of retirement, because his age does not allow him to do too much physical work.
Niu Decao's uncles are four people, and all four of their brothers are Mr. Yin and Yang.
Niu Decao is the descendant of the third child of the Niu family, although the Niu family has a big business, but in the later generations, only Niu Decao is Mr. Yin and Yang, and only Niu Decao is learning the ancestral craft of the Niu family.
Moreover, Niu Decao is not doing Mr. Yin and Yang seriously, it seems that he is just a part-time job.
Metenda then went on to talk a little bit about the cow grass.
Niu Decao currently works for a supervision company in Anping, and no one knows his identity as Mr. Yin and Yang where he works.
Niu Decao is three days of fishing and two days of drying nets in the supervision company, and there is no little self-motivation.
Niu Decao's supervision company is a communication supervision company, which is too different from the usual supervision company.
Their workflow, while similar in nature to that of a normal construction supervision company, is completely different from that of a construction supervision company.
Metenda stopped at this point, after all, this is not any useful information, so click on it.
It was impossible for the Zhou family father and son to pay attention to such detail, so Mei Tengda summarized the information he obtained, and then picked out useful things to tell them.
That's what Metenda is going to do, get it right and do it well.
Hearing this, Liu Wanli felt a little drumming in his heart, it turned out that this cow was so powerful, it was really hidden.
He pretended to be a cow and a grass on weekdays?
"This kid didn't do things authentically before!"
......
After listening to the words of his son Zhou Dali and Mei Tengda, Zhou Ziqing knew better in his heart that the characters who could be recommended by Li Quan for a long time must not be bad.
"Now you can be completely relieved!" Zhou Ziqing thought to himself.
Zhou Ziqing instructed his son, and at the same time, he also told Mei Tengda to tell the two of them to take care of Niu Decao more in the future, and try to provide some help to the future Niu Decao in terms of work.
Zhou Ziqing is a person from the past, and he knows how to deal with people with unique skills.
He himself is a living example, speaking of their Zhou family, they are inextricably linked to the Daomen, and his relationship with Li Quanyi is very complicated.
Zhou Ziqing knew that the juniors present didn't believe much in feng shui numerology, and in order to dispel the concerns of the three of them, Zhou Ziqing talked about some things he had encountered with Li Quanyi before.
The ancestral home of the Zhou family is near Panlong Mountain, and Zhou Dali was born on the side of Panlong Mountain.
But Zhou Dali didn't know about Li Quanyi.
Zhou Ziqing started from the founding of Anping, the place of origin, and talked about the earthquake and so on, of course, he did not say anything about the relocation of the ancestral grave of the Zhou family.
This is the key to the Zhou family's ability to thrive, how can it be easily said to outsiders?
Although Mei Tengda is a descendant of the Zhou family, she can't tell him about it.
Without waiting for Zhou Ziqing and the others to finish talking, Niu Decao had already finished the preparations.
