Between the foothills, a majestic temple stands.

The temple is surrounded by lush greenery, with mountains behind it and a vast desert in front.

What a view.

Since it is planned to use the rebuilt temple to worship Peng Yuzhen, after it is built, it is natural that the original name can no longer be used.

Therefore, Cai Hongming decided to rename the temple. For this name, he really killed a lot of his brain cells, and at first he gave him a very domineering name, called "Desert Heavenly Palace".

All right! This name is domineering, but it makes people feel weird when they hear it, as if Sun Wukong is making trouble in the Heavenly Palace. Later, he took names such as Qingyun Palace, Ethereal Palace, Qilian Palace, Northwest Palace, and Daxia Palace, but he always felt wrong, and later abandoned the name of the palace and used the word Guan instead. As a result, I took a lot of names for Hongmeng Temple, Purple Cloud Temple, Baiyun Temple, Laolong Temple, and Divine Turtle Temple, which sounded good, but it was always a little unsatisfactory.

Finally, after thinking about it, it was decided to take the name of Peng Yu Zhenren and name the temple name Peng Yu Zhenren Temple.

But later, I felt that I didn't have much respect for Peng Yuzhen by directly using the name as the temple name, so I changed it to Peng Zhenren Temple, and now I finally felt much more comfortable after listening to it.

In fact, it is said that dog meat can't be served, and mediocre people can't get a good name. I didn't see that in the past, the names of rural people were dung sweeps, dustpans, reckless markets (Hokkien language: the meaning of casual raising), dog heads, black noodles, fields, dung, etc., and now who dares to take this kind of name, it must be beaten to death when it is heard.

Today is the auspicious day of the zodiac, and it is a big day for Peng Zhenren Temple to worship the heavens and invite God.

Early in the morning, the people on the farm began to get busy, killing pigs, cows, and sheep, and they were very busy.

When everything was ready, everyone carried the tables and chairs from below to the front of the Peng Zhenren Temple on the mountain, and placed the three animal offerings. Prepare for the sacrifice to the heavens.

Cai Lang and the old man and Bagong of Qilian Village in the past all wore neat clothes today, standing by with a solemn face, and some people on the farm who had nothing to do also came over to watch.

For a while, the water in front of the temple was surrounded by impassable water, and it was very lively.

After Cai Lang arrived in the northwest, he was arranged by Cai Tianfu and Ma Luanfeng to live at home. Just came for a while. He was all walking around the town, and by the way, he went to visit some of Ma Luanfeng's elders in Qilian Village, where he moved out. This visit lasted for more than half a month. Because Cai Hongming has been busy, he has not been to the farm, and he has not come until now.

When the auspicious time came, the eight princes who were more familiar with these began to ask Cai Hongming to sacrifice to the sky.

Because the temple was built by him, and he is the owner of the farm, he must be the main person in the worship of the heavens, otherwise it will be done by the elders.

Cai Hongming followed his words step by step in a large number of congratulatory and sacrificial words of the Eight Princes. Tossing made him sweat.

After a while, after the worship was completed, everyone turned to the temple to ask the gods to come to the place to accept the worship and protection, and some people called this the consecration.

As soon as you enter the temple gate, it is a major hall, and in front of the hall stands a heavenly official lucky star with kind eyebrows and kind eyes and a wide smile. Actually, in Taoist temples. As soon as he entered the door, he was originally a bare-faced bearded man wearing a gold armor and red robe. With three eyes glaring, holding a hot wheel on the left and a steel whip on the right, the image is extremely powerful and brave Lingguan Protector.

The original intention of being mighty and brave is to drive away evil and eliminate evil, so that people do not do bad things.

It's just that now people's hearts are cowardly, and you have a fierce face. It will make people afraid, so Cai Hongming put a lucky star here for people to worship. It's also a good sign to get started.

On both sides of the main hall, there are two gods on duty, who are the four famous protector marshals in Taoism. Marshal Tianpeng Zhenjun, Tianxian Marshal Zhenjun, Yisheng Baode Chuqing Zhenjun, and Chengyou Shengzhen Wuling Ying Zhenjun. Walking through the main hall, there is a wide patio lined with thick ginkgo trees on both sides. In autumn, the golden leaves of the ginkgo biloba fill the courtyard, which is sure to be very pleasing to the eye.

In the corridors on both sides of the patio, there are 12 Yuanchen and 28 Pleiades Star Monarch statues, and a little above are 36 Tiangang and 72 Earth Evil.

The two side rooms next to the patio are dedicated to the Wenchang Emperor Confucius and the Wuchang Emperor Guan Gong.

Every statue of the god has been shaped to life. Cai Hongming is making these as works of art, if he didn't use clay sculptures, it is estimated that he would go bankrupt.

The main hall in the middle is dedicated to Peng Yuzhen, there is a boy on each side to serve, there are two cranes below, and in front is a huge copper furnace. The walls are inlaid with white tiles, and the bricks are painted with exquisite portraits, all of which are the stories of Peng Yuzhenren who walked the world to exorcise evil in the past. Of course, some of them are artistically processed.

This Peng Yu real person is like Cai Hongming asking someone to restore the bones he brought out from the dark river and then artistically recreate it, it looks like a fairy wind and bones, floating away, and an extraordinary vulgar person.

All kinds of offerings had already been placed on the main hall, and when Cai Hongming and others came to the main hall, they began to invite the gods.

Just now, I sacrificed to the heavens, and I told the heavens the meaning of the statue and temple, and asked the heavens to approve it, but this time it was to ask the gods to return to their places.

Hachiko lit a piece of rune on paper, recited the words, and those who knew understood that he was a master of Kanyu, and those who didn't know thought he was a Taoist.

After reading, Bagong asked Cai Hongming to kneel down and worship Peng Yuzhen. Cai Hongming bowed three times and bowed nine times, and then it was completed after a tedious ceremony. After this pass, Cai Hongming was so tired that his back hurt, even if he fought with his wife for countless rounds, it was not so hard.

After inviting the gods, everyone went to put on a stick of incense, and the fragrance lingered, floating in the air, and lasted for a long time.

Cai Hongming took the time to secretly take a look at Peng Zhenren Temple, only to see a cloud of blue and purple gas condensed above the temple.

Green wood, representing vitality and prosperity; The purple belongs to the fire, the fire red is auspicious, and the red purple is the auspicious sign, and it seems that the temple should be a blessed place. After reading it, Cai Hongming was much more relieved, as long as it was not a place of black condensation, there was no problem. Because of the condensation of blackness, some strange things often happen.

Cai Hongming touched his head, which was a little dizzy, and found a place to sit down.

After cultivating for so long, whenever I use Wangqi, I still feel dizzy, but it's much better than before, and I used to be weak and hungry all over, but now it's just dizzy.

After resting and recovering a little, he continued to walk inside, and there were still a large number of people busy in the temple. Because today is the inauguration ceremony of Peng Zhenren Temple, it is reasonable to invite guests, so everyone will set up a banquet in the temple and eat and drink.

After the temple was built, it was natural that someone would watch it, but it was a question of who would come.

Cai Hongming himself must not be able to stay here every day to watch the temple, and neither can the eight princes, the old man, the mountains and forests here are cold, and their bodies may not be able to stand it. Even if they can stand it, no one wants to come, after all, the farm is so good. Call a few people from the farm to watch, it's okay, but it can only be dying, after all, a good young man came to see the temple, and he didn't want to become a monk and cultivate immortals.

In the end, a few old people in Qilian Village discussed, saying that they could let the old people over there come over to help watch, and there was no need for Cai Hongming to pay, as long as there was food and shelter.

Cai Hongming thought about it and felt that it was feasible.

The old people over there have their wives deceased, and their children are not filial, and their lives are not satisfactory, so they can help themselves when they come here. And when people are old, they can't help but recall the past, and some people want to come back to live when they see that this side is built so well.

It's a pity that this side has already been sold to Cai Hongming by the government, and it is obviously impossible to come back and live.

But now that there is Peng Zhenren Temple, it is possible to let the old man come and live.

In southern Fujian, almost all the temples in the village are watched by the elderly, and it is also the main activity place for the elderly.

So, Peng Zhenren Temple was handed over to the old people who had moved out of Qilian Village to watch, and Cai Hongming brought a bunch of people to come over every morning to offer incense. Because people often come over, and the old people often go to the farm to walk around, and there are TV and radio listening, but they are not lonely. Moreover, Cai Hongming did not treat them badly, and gave money every month, which moved the old man, and it can be regarded as an unintentional good deed

It was another morning, after eating, Cai Hongming had nothing to do, so he sat on his head with his daughter in his arms and walked around the farm.

Xiao Chuchu has already begun to learn to speak, babbling, and sometimes he can say words that one or two people can understand, and the rest belong to myths.

Xiao Chuchu hugged his father's neck, his eyes looked around curiously, and he looked excited. (To be continued.) )
