Chapter Seventy-Three: Transcendence
Li Fan returned home, pulled Zhu Bajie down to his room, followed the steps taught by the system with a serious expression, pinched a more complex set of handprints, and the white light shot towards Zhu Bajie who was squatting on the ground, and after a while, the system prompted: "Zhu Bajie's resistance is worth 100, and he is not willing to be your pet!" ”
Hey, I'll go, Li Fan almost jumped up, but he didn't want to, looking at the innocent Zhu Bajie, Li Fan stretched out his hand and touched its head, and said in a very domineering tone: "Follow me to eat and drink spicy food in the future!" Premium dog food, luxury sea view kennel with everything! ”
The system continued to prompt: "Zhu Bajie's resistance value is 99, and he still doesn't want to be your pet!" ”
Li Fan scratched his head, he didn't even care about high-grade dog food and luxury seaview kennels? remembered the introduction of Zhu Bajie that I saw before
"Zhu Bajie, a Chinese pastoral dog, has one-sixteenth of the Dachshund bloodline and one-eighth of the Poodle bloodline, the family of earth dogs, the proudest thing of the ancestors is to soak in the Poodle as a soil dog, and become a perfect example of the earth dog's counterattack against Bai Fumei!"
Immediately took it to heart, and said in a tone that tempted little Lori to look at the goldfish: "Zhu Bajie, you can have any dog you want after following me, what a VIP, Bichon, no problem, even if you want to soak the Tibetan mastiff, I can pull the line for you!" ”
The system prompts: "Zhu Bajie's resistance value is 98, and he still doesn't want to be your pet!" ”
A hint of admiration flashed in Li Fan's eyes, what a dog! Mighty can't bend, wealth can't be lewd, even money and beauties can be safe, and sure enough, I didn't mistake the dog! But how can you get Zhu Bajie to follow you?
Next, Li Fan was both threatening and tempting, but Zhu Bajie was still unmoved, holding a disposable cup and looking at himself with the most innocent eyes. Just when Li Fan had nothing to do, the uncle walked in.
"Xiaofan, how's it going? Did Zhu Bajie agree? ”
Li Fan shook his head helplessly: "Uncle, Zhu Bajie is too tough, no matter what I say, he doesn't say anything." ”
Uncle smiled: "That's because you didn't say the right thing, Zhu Bajie is very human, he understands everything you say." Saying that, Li Huancheng squatted down, touched Zhu Bajie's head and said: "Bajie, you follow my eldest nephew, you can have any disposable cup you want in the future!" ”
A miracle happened, Zhu Bajie stood up and ran in front of Li Fan, his eyes were shining, and his tail was like a propeller.
The system prompts: "Zhu Bajie's resistance value is 0, and he is willing to be your pet!" ”
A glimmer of light flashed on Zhu Bajie's body, and the image of the earth dog holding a cup on the pet page of the system also officially appeared.
Li Fan touched its head and asked strangely, "Uncle." Why is it so obsessed with disposable paper cups?"
"I don't know very well, I just know that Zhu Bajie likes to hold a disposable cup very much, basically never leaves his mouth, except for putting it down when eating, I really haven't seen it without holding a cup."
Li Fan scratched his head, no matter what, if he doesn't understand, he doesn't want to, there are more important things than this: "Uncle, tonight's Fa Shi, there are some things I want you to cooperate"
The sun is gradually setting, the small building of Sun Fugui's house is surrounded by villagers, Sun Fugui worked hard and became rich during his lifetime, this small building is very exquisite, and there is a very large yard, enough to fit the villagers of the whole village.
Li Fan wore a robe and horse coat today, coupled with his bookish aura and unique temperament after cultivation, the whole person looked quite charming.
A table has been set up in front of Sun Fugui's exquisite small building, on which there is no shortage of three animals and five fruits, wine and glutinous rice, white candles and incense burners. The three incense sticks in the incense burner were burning, and the smoke was wafting in the courtyard, changing direction with the breeze.
Li Fan first cleaned his hands with the water in the copper basin next to him, and then worshiped the Quartet. With a twist of his fingers, several yellow runes appeared in his hand, holding these talismans flat in his right hand, and pointing at his left hand, he chanted
"Pure water, sun and moon canopy, Tibetan Beidou, three internal cases, divine water to dissolve filth. Turbidity goes to clear, and it is always clear and pure. Change! ”
Several talismans burst into flames.
The crowd of onlookers didn't dare to breathe, and watched Li Fan's movements in front of the offering table in awe.
After burning the purification talisman, Li Fan bowed three times, and began to summon the general of the five directions to open the way for the immortal deceased.
Taoism is about five parts, if it is converted into modern terms, it is about five parts: summoning, bathing, bathing, bridge, pilgrimage, and position.
First invite people from the relevant departments to come over, talk about good things and Lala relationship, I am a disciple of what a thing, a successor or something, and then after the negotiation is completed, open a letter of introduction to the dead soul, let him take the letter of introduction to the underworld to do things, generally speaking, whether it can be successfully exceeded or whether it is useful, it depends on the background of the person who opened the letter of introduction, whether it is bull B or not, and its own strength.
Li Fan stepped forward and shook the spirit flag, originally this spirit flag should be shaken by the relatives of the deceased, but unfortunately this Sun Fugui is an orphan, the family is dead, and there are no relatives here, so he can only do it himself.
Throwing the fold with the names of the four people into the brazier, Li Fan shook the spirit flag violently: "The soul is back!" ”
The courtyard, which had been very quiet, suddenly became very windy. The surrounding trees were blown and swayed, as if something really was coming, but strangely the smoke from the incense burner was not blown away by this gust of wind, but flew straight into the sky.
A villager smashed the person next to him with his arm, pointed to the top of the courtyard and said tremblingly, "Look! ”
At some point, four vague figures appeared, two tall and two short, clearly two adults and two children.
The villagers retreated, watching all this in horror, although they had seen the scene of the demon removal in the reservoir before, but it was just a black fish, and it was a bigger fish for the villagers at most. But now that the ghost really appeared in front of their eyes, they really felt what fear was.
If it weren't for Master Xiao Li giving them the greatest confidence and sense of security here, these villagers would have fled a long time ago!
Li Fan saw that the souls of the four people had been summoned, put down the spirit flag, and prepared to carry out the next bridge crossing ceremony.
The bridge, "Shuowen Jie Zi" said: "The water beam is also, from the sound of the wood Qiao", that is, the wood that connects the two banks on the water. Xu Shen of the Eastern Han Dynasty has a clear explanation of "bridge" in "Shuowen Jie Zi", which shows that the Chinese people have long understood the principle of building bridges and bridges.
Linking concepts such as "bridge" with "ascending immortals" and "ghosts" shows that there is already a concept of human and immortal barriers in the hearts of the people. It is vaguely recognized that the bridge can also connect the "underworld" and the "fairy world".
Taoism's statement of "bridge" can be examined in the scientific and ritual literature compiled by Du Guangting, a Taoist priest of the fifth dynasty in the late Tang Dynasty, from which the concept of "law bridge" can be found.
Volume 40 of "Taishang Huang Zheng Zhaiyi" records: "In heaven, the road to the bridge is broken." There is no reason to leave hell". The idea of going from hell to heaven and passing through the "Dharma Bridge" already exists.
Therefore, the Taoist ritual is to build a bridge to the underworld and send the soul of the deceased to the underworld.
Li Fan took out a paper bridge, which was covered with a white cloth, and the white cloth was sprinkled with "Ode to Bathing in the East Well" and "Ode to the Soul of Clear Water" When Li Fan bowed a few times and wanted to speak.
The bridge suddenly burst into flames, and the thick incense suddenly snapped, and a thick red mist suddenly emerged from the four figures. And Li Fan spurted out a mouthful of blood!
