The people of the five major branches of the Lushan Sect all followed behind their respective sects, all looking solemn. Among them, the Taoist priest on the side of the main altar is on the far left, which is the head.

Xuan Zhenzi, the head of the main altar, held the bell in his left hand and the bell in his right hand, shaking the bell all the time. The sound of the bell is crisp, and it is not unpleasant. As for "Shu", here is to explain, it refers to the booklet of prayer, which is a kind of book for the Lushan sect to hold major events and worship the heavens.

For example, every five years, the Lushan faction's "fighting method" is to read the "Shu" above the book of worship.

The head of the sect, Xuan Zhenzi, led a group of Taoist priests from the Lushan Sect to the center of the clearing, and the center had already been arranged with an altar in advance. There are three bronze statues on the altar, which are the statues of the Dharma Master of the Lushan Sect, the founder of the Lushan faction. There is also the statue of Our Lady of the "Linshui Palace" and the statue of Our Lady of the "Western Palace".

On the long table in front of the altar are the heads of pigs, horses, cows and sheep, as well as fruits, sugar cubes, and grains. There is a large sigil standing next to it.

The talisman is tall and big, just like the kind of "halo flag" used by the emperor in ancient times.

In simple terms, the flag resembles a huge umbrella cover.

In front of the offering table there is also an incense burner, which is very large, and a lot of sandalwood is burned in it. There are Taoist priests from Lushan who have inserted them, and more tourists who have come to pray and repay their vows beforehand.

Then, Xuan Zhenzi, the head of the Lushan faction, opened the "Shu" and began to read the book of the previous year's sacrifice to the heavens, and the content of the person is also, I won't talk about it here, and I am confused when I listen to it.

By the time he finished reading the text, it was already ten minutes later, and then, someone next to him handed incense, and the head of Xuan Zhenzi stepped forward and began to salute the statue with the Taoist priest of the Lushan faction.

Inserted incense into the censer.

Then, there were also county leaders of Fuyuan City, and city leaders spoke. After that, the head of Xuan Zhenzi announced the start of the Lushan faction's five-year "fighting method" conference.

It is said to be a fighting method, but in fact, it is a Taoist priest who falls and fights in the middle, and there are people who perform moves similar to martial arts.

As for the powerful Dao methods of the Lushan Sect, they didn't appear at all. This is also understandable, after all, the background of the Lushan Sect is unfathomable, and if those methods of catching ghosts and eliminating monsters are revealed, it will probably scare many tourists present.

Everyone is here to have fun and ask for peace, and no one wants to be frightened. Therefore, if the Lushan faction wants to make money and attract investment, it will naturally pretend to act.

However, the tourists were still very enthusiastic by the atmosphere of the scene, and shouted and applauded together. As for the disciples of the various branch sects that came out before, they had all returned to the main hall at this time.

"Brother Qin, the time is almost up, we didn't participate in the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky just now, but we must participate in the Houshan Fighting Method. Otherwise, if we blame it, we will also be in trouble. Huo Yu said.

I nodded: "Well, let's go then, it doesn't seem to be much to see here anyway." People who come to play find it novel, but for us serious Taoist priests, those spells, similar to acrobatics, are not interesting. ”

Immediately, a few of us slowly walked in one direction from the side of the air, but not from the main hall. As soon as I asked, I found out, dare to love, there is still a passage to the main hall here, and only the disciples of the Lushan Sect can go through.

We walked down from the right side and came to a stone gate. The stone gate is guarded by more than a dozen Taoist priests on both sides, and if any tourists want to enter, they will be denied.

"Senior Brother Han, don't come to harm!" Huo Yu walked over briskly and greeted one of the Taoist priests.

The Taoist priest had long hair and was tied up by a wooden hairpin, which was more in line with the temperament of a Taoist priest. And he has wheat-colored skin and looks healthy.

"Huh? Senior Brother Huo Yu, why are you still here, didn't you participate in the previous Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony? .......”

"Senior Sister Helian, you're here too! ... Isn't it, didn't any of you participate in the ceremony? ”

Hearing Senior Brother Han ask this, Huo Yu, Zuo Santong, and Helian Xiaoxiao became embarrassed for a while.

"No, no, Senior Brother Han, no! It's not that we don't want to participate, it's that there are too many people, and those tourists just now blocked the altar side, and a few of us didn't squeeze over. ”

"If you come over, how can you not participate in the heavenly worship ceremony. I guess now that I'm going back, my master will probably have to clean me up again. ”

Huo Yu said with some bitterness.

Helian Xiaoxiao also said: "Yes, there are really many tourists this time, and the scale is the grandest in recent years." If you knew it earlier, you could make a lot of money by selling something like a talisman. ”

This Senior Brother Han and many other Taoist priests and Huo Yu and Helian knew each other, so they all chatted.

After a while, Senior Brother Han's gaze fell on me: "This little brother is wearing a ghost torture rod pinned to his waist, are you a member of the Three Mountains Sect?" ”

Everyone asked, and I couldn't help but answer. I smiled and hugged my fists: "Hello senior brother, I am Qin Yuyang, a disciple of the Three Mountains Sect!" ”

"Qin Yuyang? ... Ah, I know you! I am very good friends with your second senior brother Jiang Tianzhou. Yesterday, your second senior brother mentioned you and said that you didn't come, and he was very worried. By the way, the matter of your previous extermination of the Gu Girl Lan Shuiyi, as well as the corpse chaser, has already spread in our Lushan Sect. ”

"Hehe, Senior Brother Yuyang, you are also a celebrity in the Lushan Sect now, but many senior brothers and disciples have never seen you. However, you kid is really handsome, and he has been passed down by the Horseshoe Sect, and he will definitely be unlimited in the future. ”

So after chatting a few words, this Senior Brother Han let us enter the stone gate.

Although Pumpkin was not from the Lushan Sect, this Senior Brother Han didn't say much.

Not to mention, that Senior Brother Han feels really good, quite enthusiastic.

The stone gate goes inside, and there is a passage with electric lights hanging on the wall inside, which is somewhat similar to the meaning of an underground tunnel. However, compared to the underground tunnel, this side is not so far from the ground, and it is just a passage to the main hall, which is convenient for the disciples of the Lushan Sect.

The passage was not very long, and after walking for more than ten minutes, we saw the exit.

Walking out of the exit, there were no more chaotic tourists and the hawker in front of me. This place is more than 100 meters away from the main hall.

The time was already more than eleven o'clock in the morning, and according to Huo Yu's statement, the "Houshan Fighting Method" started at twelve o'clock.

It's almost time now, and we'll have to hurry up. But I didn't expect it, when I arrived at the main hall, I found that the main hall was empty, and no one was there.

"Why aren't people here?"

Helian thought for a moment and said, "I should have rushed to the back mountain, let's go over now, don't be too late." As for the robe, it seems that it is too late to change it now. ”

So, Helian Xiaoxiao led the way in front, and the four of us hurried to follow, and rushed from the side of the main hall to the back mountain.

The place where the Houshan Fighting Method is still far away from here, in order not to be affected by the prosperity of the Lushan faction. After all, the fighting method is relatively serious, and it is impossible to mess around.

Unexpectedly, when I just arrived at the back mountain of the Lushan faction, in front of a suspension bridge, more than a dozen people appeared.

The dozen or so people were about to go up the suspension bridge when they heard footsteps behind them, and some of them looked back.

When they saw us, one of them shouted at the top of his voice: "Stop! Stop first! ”

The voice was familiar.

We also stopped, and I looked over there, and I knew a few of them, especially the Taoist priest with a swollen face and a lot of potions rubbed on his face, like a pig's head, I actually recognized.

It was none other than the pig-belly-faced Taoist priest I met last night. His surname is Wu, and I don't know what his name is, but he and the Taoist priests who were beaten were all from the Meishan faction.

"Ahhh Bastard, it's you! ... Bastard, I'm going to let you die! "That pig-belly-faced Taoist priest is about to rush towards us.

However, a middle-aged Taoist priest in his fifties beside him grabbed the arm of the pig-belly-faced Taoist priest. The middle-aged Taoist priest had a scar on his face.

The scar was cut down from the top of his eyelid, like a worm lying on his face.

And the eye between the scars is blind, and the eyeball inside is a prosthetic eye.

"Wu En, don't mess around, this is the Lushan faction." The middle-aged Taoist priest shouted.

But Wu En stared at us fiercely, his teeth clenched, as if he wanted to eat people. "But, Uncle Shi, they beat me before, and I can't swallow this bad breath!"

That middle-aged Taoist priest turned out to be the uncle of this big pig-belly-faced Taoist priest. As for the other three Taoist priests who were beaten, they were also standing with this pig-belly-faced Taoist priest named Wu En, and they were not beaten lightly, and they were all angry now.

"What's the matter, your Meishan faction still wants to stir up trouble? This is the Lushan Sect's General Altar, not a place for you to mess around, and now it's a five-year fight, aren't you afraid of causing a bad impact. ”

"And, are you mistaken, it's us, not you, who are really hurt. You have done a shameless deed, for a piece of jade pendant, you actually played kidnapping, this is what your Meishan faction does, it's really a shame. ”

When I saw that pig-belly-faced Taoist priest was about to rush up, I said unceremoniously. Anyway, this is the Lushan faction, and they can't play any tricks.

"Bastard, you're damned, I'm not going to let you go! Do you dare to tell me, your name? The pig-belly-faced Taoist priest asked angrily.

I shrunk my shoulders and smiled, "Don't dare!" ”

These two words were so angry by the pig's belly face that they almost smoked.

"Ahhh I'm mad at me! I'll kill you, kill you......" He was going to rush up.

However, the middle-aged Taoist priest was angry, and he said angrily: "Okay, Wu En, you give me a little quiet." Go, you take your junior brother and they all leave here first, and I will talk to this little brother about your affairs. ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest had a straight face, his face was pale, and said in a solemn voice.

The big pig-bellied face Taoist priest glared at us fiercely, as if he was unwilling. But he also knew he couldn't be here, to do it to us. So he obediently got on the suspension bridge with those Taoist priests of the Meishan faction and left here.

The middle-aged Taoist priest walked towards us.

Huo Yu approached us and whispered, "I know this person, he is an elder of the Meishan faction, named Luo Chun, and his Taoism is profound, and he should not be underestimated. Brother Qin, Senior Sister Helian, we have to be careful. ”

But we have come this side, and we have no intention of retreating.

The middle-aged Taoist priest Luo Chun walked towards us with a calm face.

"Guys, I'd like to talk to you about yesterday!" Luo Chun opened his mouth and said, his face did not have the anger just now, and he looked very peaceful. But a coldness flashed in his eyes, and I caught it.

This guy doesn't seem to be a good guy either.
