Chapter 294: Blessing Ceremony
Ma Xiang, Zhao only into the Heming Mountain and the five buckets of rice to discuss the Tao, the results are self-evident, and the five buckets of rice will only be according to the book, completely relying on Zhang Daoling's "Lao Tzu Xianger Note" on the Tao, compared with the Taiping Dao to the "Taiping Qing Lingshu" as the main purpose, talk about the past and the present, combined with the current social situation, especially the life of the grassroots people, expound the distorted morality of the Taiping Dao, than the five buckets of rice Dao is a lot stronger, naturally the Taiping Dao victory.
Of course, it is also biased to say that it is a victory, and the two sides are just talking about the way, and there is no theory of victory or defeat, so saying this is just a comparison of the two factions. However, this can be seen from the reason why the Tao can only live in a corner at this time, so that the descendants have to move back to Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi Province to preach, after all, for this hereditary religious organization, the predecessors have already planted the tree, they only need to enjoy the ancestral legacy, just enjoy the shade under the tree, can think of from those complicated Taoist pre-Qin classics, but there are very few who create their own routines.
At this point, even Lu Lan, a Taoist aunt who studies Taoist classics every day, can't get out of this track, and it's no wonder that Wudoumi Daokong has Zhang Daoling's legacy, but it is not as good as Taiping Dao in the general trend of preaching the world. A leader in later generations has a wise saying, innovation is the first driving force to lead the development, which is very important in any industry, Taiping Dao will combine the people's livelihood to preach, and Wudou Midao can only be seen as a "ghost road", for decades has been so, which is the best and which is the fittest, you can know at a glance.
Three days later, but it was a day of great luck, and the matter was prayed for. During this period, in addition to the usual daily visits to Liu Jian, he lingered on Bian Ying and Lu Lan, and he didn't know how to be bored, so that he could enjoy the joy of "the king will not be early from now on". Maybe it's not bad forever, but it's clear that the course of history won't allow him to have the slightest stagnation, and after settling Liu Jian down today, he will be on his way back, and according to the progress of the trip, he will be able to return to the county office in time for his leave.
There are many auspicious days in the first month, and it is naturally chosen by the "masters" of the five buckets of rice road. Fuquan doesn't know how the "master" got it, the day he chose was unfortunate, but it rained, what kind of auspicious day is this? But there is always another side to things, the weather is rainy, the time is not good, naturally all blessing matters need to be simplified, which also saves Liu Jian's belly all kinds of trouble.
In the Taoist temple where the bells rang and the rain washed away, Fu Quan led his subordinates to watch the blessing and prayer ceremony in front of them in the dim main hall of the Taoist temple, along with other Taoist priests and Taoist aunts of the Five Bucket Rice Dao.
I saw Liu Jian, who was wrapped in thick black clothes, kneeling in front of the statue of Zhang Daoling, closing his eyes and praying sincerely.
According to what the people of Wudou Midao said, what Zhang Xiu did was to invite the gods to the lower realm, to inform the immortals in the fairy world, that there were sincere disciples who prayed for blessings, so that they felt it, and blessed the safety of the disciples.
The clothes worn by Zhang Xiu are actually the things left by Zhang Daoling, the first generation of Heavenly Master of Wudou Midao, and according to legend, these are all things given by Taishang Laojun himself after Zhang Daoling was taught by Taishang Laojun. After Zhang Daoling's death, it became a thing passed down from generation to generation by the heavenly masters of the past dynasties, but now it is worn on Zhang Xiu, the descendants of the Zhang family who are not Zhang Daoling's orthodox descendants, which shows how chaotic the current power dumping within the Five Doumi Sect is.
Maybe this is what Lu Lan said when he had an in-depth exchange with himself in recent days, Zhang Xiu faintly has the meaning of "Emperor Taishang" in the Wudou Rice Dao, maybe there is a suitable opportunity, and this Zhang Xiu can become the new Heavenly Master of the Wudou Rice Dao. Thinking that in the future, Zhang Lu relied on his mother to serve Liu Yan and completely control the Wudou Rice Dao, which must have been full of twists and turns, and Fuquan's later generations had no impression of Zhang Xiu, thinking that he would either die in Zhang Lu's struggle for power, or completely leave the Wudou Rice Dao, learn from the predecessors, live in seclusion and no longer be born, and become immortals.
Looking at Liu Jian kneeling in front of him, his face was a little pale, not like he had a good appearance, Fu Quan was very distressed, but he didn't dare to step forward, he knew that Liu Jian must be very uncomfortable now, after all, if you let a pregnant woman who has been pregnant for almost half a year kneel on the ground, the other party will have a ghost if he can feel good.
It's just that no matter how uncomfortable Liu Jian is at this time, she has to endure it, even if Fuquan can't do anything now, after all, it is a ritual that must be experienced to pray for blessings, endure this time, and then find a secluded courtyard to practice alone, make wishes and pray for blessings, as if living in seclusion, and then send some cronies to protect her, unless Liu Jian is willing to meet, others want to meet, unless you are the emperor, otherwise you can only be blocked out of the courtyard, and you will not have the opportunity to see the true face of Her Royal Highness the princess.
Finally, Zhang Xiu pretended to finish his set of spells, and then suddenly let out a long roar, then put down the Yang Ping Zhidu Gong Seal in his left hand, brought a bowl of talisman water with talismans that had been prepared on the front desk of the statue of God, took a deep sip, and then squirted a sip of the three-five slashing male and female sword in his hand, and then waved it all over the sky......
The talisman in the bowl also has a origin, it also belongs to Zhang Daoling, it is the most important one passed on by Taishang Laojun and other treasures back then, the name is "Zhengyi League Wei Fu", it is said that there is great power, Zhang Daoling subdued demons and eliminated demons more than this treasure, and I don't know if it is true or false.
In short, with this slightly contrived performance in Fuquan's opinion, most of the blessing ceremony has been completed, and the rest is up to Liu Jian.
The sword momentum stopped, and after Zhang Xiu finished collecting the sword, he then held the three-five slashing evil male and female sword with both hands, and shouted in his mouth: "Please be a real person for three days!" ”
After shouting, the other Taoist priests and Taoist aunts in the main hall who had been preparing for a long time meditated one after another, as if they were practicing when cultivating immortals, and their mouths also chanted words, and they didn't care whether the ground was cold or not, they just kept chanting the mantra, not moved by external objects.
Seeing this scene, Fuquan couldn't help but sigh secretly, no matter whether what these five buckets of rice Dao did today was true or not, anyway, in terms of the arrangement of today's blessing ceremony, it had the strength to become the first orthodox Taoism in the world later.
Liu Jian gritted his teeth and got up at this time, then walked to Zhang Xiu, who was standing with his sword raised, and prayed to the statue of Zhang Daoling: "Disciple Liu Jian, for the princess of the Han family, is dedicated to the Tao, today the plague continues, and the people of the Han Dynasty are miserable. ”
