Chapter 212: What a Powerful ...... Supernatural power?
Generally speaking, they are all fat monks and thin Taoist priests. Because Taoism pays great attention to the art of movement and guidance, and there are many Taoist priests who travel in all directions, and the Taoist robe is wide, which can cover the body, so what I see in daily life are many thin people with fluttering sleeves and long bodies.
But the one standing on top is obviously not young, at least he is over the age of six, and he is not good at it. Except for a face full and round red light, which is a bit special, no matter how you look at the rest of the place, it is a fat old man.
The hair on his head is already completely white, and he is tied into a small Taoist bun with a peach hairpin. The robe is naturally brand new, and there are many patterns on it, anyway, Xia Xiaodong can't understand it, but this special robe still can't cover the belly of the scale, and the two feet exposed under the head are even more round, and it must be enough for a pot of stewed hooves.
If it weren't for the fact that this person was holding a peachwood sword that looked quite old at first glance, Xia Xiaodong would have thought that it was a fire worker Taoist priest who went up to place sacrifices.
"That ......" Xia Xiaodong pointed secretly, anyway, the target was so big that it couldn't be missed: "Is it Xuanyuan Dao Chief?" ”
Lu Yunzhi, who was sitting next to him, nodded: "Well, his old man has made a few more fortunes." ”
It seems that Xuanyuan Dao Chang is still very fat and traditional.
"Standing on both sides of the sacrificial platform are Jingyu and Mingxin, the two Taoist leaders." Lu Yunzhi pointed to two middle-aged Taoist priests wearing Taoist crowns, Taoist robes, and dust-wipers.
These two seem to be too in line with the image of the Taoist priest in their minds, and they have been pressed into obscurity by the huge contrast of Xuanyuan Dao Chang.
The altar looks quite tall, with as many as three floors, and it is built for civil engineering, not like a temporary structure, but it is thought that Taiyiguan originally existed, but it was renovated.
The two floors below are neatly filled with little Taoists, and I don't know where they found them, they are all about the same height, and each of them is holding a small three-legged tripod in their hands.
The huge hourglass placed on one side constantly reminded the hour, and from time to time the ceremonial officials chanted strange words, and the little Taoist priests were trained to respond.
It feels like a big stage play.
When Xia Xiaodong just thought so, he heard a loud 'bang', as if a salute had been fired, and then only the music was heard, and Daoist Xuanyuan, who was standing in the center of the altar, really began to 'dance'.
I saw the peachwood sword in his hand flying up and down, and the robe on his body fluttering in the wind, with a flexibility that was extremely inconsistent with his figure, quickly moving in different directions of the altar.
It's pretty good.
can become the most famous Taoist in the country, Xuanyuan Li also has some skills. Between the opening and closing of the movements, there was a bit of turbulence, and I don't know where there was a faint thunder.
Everyone unanimously raised their heads to look at the sky, but they couldn't find a trace of clouds, and when they lowered their heads and looked at Xuanyuan Dao Chang again, their eyes were unconsciously filled with awe.
Can this person trigger the thunder? When did the occasion turn mysterious? Xia Xiaodong didn't believe it, raised his eyes and looked around very suspiciously at the few circular decorations painted with Tai Chi patterns on the side of the altar.
In front of each Taiji diagram, there are little Taoist priests standing, dancing with Xuanyuan Taoist and performing together.
If this thing is made of leather, and it is equipped with a box with amplified sound, etc., isn't it similar to a big drum, and it is not difficult to strike a few muffled thunders.
While thinking about it, there was a new trick on the top, the altar was in all directions, and four teams of little Taoist priests worked together to move up the four large vats.
It looks pretty heavy, and there's something in it.
The vat was placed according to the direction, obviously it should represent all directions, the little Taoist priests respectfully retreated to the rear, and the Xuanyuan Daoist wandered around, where the peach wood sword pointed, the things in the vat ignited, and soon a large area was booming.
The Xuanyuan Daoist in the center was obviously not very afraid of this fire, and he pinched the Dao recipe with words in his mouth, and walked in front of the vat one by one. Strange to say, as soon as he walked by, the fire in the vat was naturally extinguished.
When all the fires were extinguished, the surrounding ceremonial music was flourishing, and several ceremonial officials sang in unison: "Jing'an in the four seas, peace in the world!" ”
That's it?
And also.
In the end, Daoist Xuanyuan was still on a huge rune paper, and drew a peace charm with 'rune water' on the spot. The rune water obviously looked like it was clear water—in fact, it was also clear water, but it was clear water who had recited the charm, but when it was drawn on the yellow rune paper, it showed red marks, which caused a low voice of admiration.
It is said that this talisman will be pasted on a certain gate of the palace according to the position calculated by Xuanyuan Dao Chief, which can bless the Ning family's peace in the world...... year.
I'll have to get a new one next year.
If you don't change it, the handwriting will fade or even disappear on its own—a sign of the constant depletion of the power of blessing.
After the 'practice', Xuanyuan Dao Chang consumed a lot, and his head was full of sweat beads on a cold day, and his stomach seemed to be smaller, and with the support of the two disciples of Jingyu and Mingxin, he slowly walked off the altar.
Of course, if you finish your work and are still full of energy, it doesn't mean that you haven't done your best.
Xia Xiaodong was dumbfounded.
That's it? The performance skills are very good, but ...... What thunder is hidden under the altar, what low-burning fire, and what clear water writes in red, this is too pediatric, right?
For Xia Xiaodong, whose main business is chemistry, it is really as easy as a child's house.
Lu Yunzhi stabbed Xia Xiaodong and said with a smile: "How?" Xuanyuan Dao Chang's skills are extraordinary, right? I see you're stunned. ”
Isn't it stunned, the thunder is scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, can you not stay.
"There will be a small peace charm at the door when we turn around, let's go get a few too. This is only useful if you pick it up in person. Lu Yunzhi sat steadily, letting the others gradually leave.
Xia Xiaodong also sat steadily. This is the same as the end of the movie, there is no need to swarm and go out, say a few gossips, and wait until the end to go out easily.
"Elder Xuanyuan Dao came all the way to do it...... Rituals? "Xia Xiaodong is not sure if it is called a dharma, it feels more like a dancing god.
"This sacrificial ceremony, the Taoist who is not highly respected and powerful in mana is not competent, so he has to work Xuanyuan Daoist to run around." Lu Yunzhi said with a smile: "According to the situation in previous years, his old man will stay in the capital for a month or two, and many people are looking forward to him." ”
……
……
In the side hall of the Sanqing Hall not far from Xia Xiaodong and Lu Yunzhi, Daoist Xuanyuan took the handkerchief handed over by Jingyu, wiped the sweat on his head, and with a 'snap', he pulled the handkerchief on Jingyu's shoulder.
"Why don't you die stupidly!" Daoist Xuanyuan started a fire at him.
