Lingbao sect, also known as Ge soap sect and Gejiadao, was founded in the last years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and has a history of more than 1,500 years from now. Because this mountain is in the Pavilion Soap Mountain, it is also called the Pavilion Soap Sect. The belief is that Ge Xuan, also known as Ge Jiadao, is the origin of the Heavenly Venerable.

The belief and inheritance is based on the "Lingbao Sutra", also known as the Lingbao School, and the "Lingbao Sutra" comes from the "Taiping Sutra", which means that the gods are precious. Gesoo Mountain, Lingbao Sect and Longhu Mountain, Zhengtian Shidao, as well as Maoshan Shangqing Sect, and called Taoist Fu Gong Three Mountains.

Fu Gong Three Mountains, that is, these Taoist schools are good at using Fu Gong. Fu is a kind of magic in Taoism, also known as "Fu Zi", "Mo Zheng", "Dan Shu". "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Fangshu" contains: "There is a koji Shengqing in Henan, who is good at Danshu Fu, and impeaches and kills ghosts and gods and missions."

Like a fat man taking out a piece of talisman paper from his arms, reciting a spell in his mouth, rubbing his fingers to hit a fireball, this is the application of talismans. There is also the Qingshen rune ash that Jiang Ming burned for Xiaohua to drink, which is also a talisman.

Of course, there are many colors of rune paper, because of the different functions and grades, the writing ink is mainly made of smoke ink and cinnabar powder, and the spell is drawn.

And drawing talismans is a very laborious thing, to pinch the trick to think that the gods come with the pen, to step on the fight, recite the spell and then put the pen, in the paper and ink, pen and other aspects are very exquisite.

There are several functions of talismans, such as the Maoshan faction's divine military order, which belongs to the spirit rune. The spirit rune is the carrier of the information injected into the heavens, the earth, the people, and the gods, and is the text of the gods, conveying the will of the gods, and can summon the gods to impeach ghosts, subdue demons and suppress demons, cure diseases and eliminate disasters, and order ghosts and gods.

And my Mandarin Duck Qilin Seal is used to seal the aura of the talisman after drawing the talisman, which plays the role of the finishing touch. The unicorn seal has been enshrined and influenced by thousands of years of incense, and has already grown into a vessel spirit, which has the effect of sealing demons, demons, ghosts, and monsters.

It's a pity that now that guy is running into the palm of my hand, and I can't use it yet.

There are many types and uses of talismans, including peace charms, good luck charms, town house charms, talismans, wealth charms, etc., and the phoenix charms, marriage charms, popularity charms, etc., and the evil charms, relief charms, and surprise charms used to avoid evil.

The usage of the charm is divided into 8 kinds, such as burning, wearing, pasting, eating, boiling, rubbing, spraying, wiping, etc., of which in addition to pasting and wearing, the rest are used by fire. Therefore, the Taoist priest who confers the gong will have rune paper on his body. And there are many taboos in the writing and use of symbols.

The Lingbao faction has a cloud seal talisman, which comes from the "Lingbao Immeasurable Human Grade Sutra", which is used by the head and the disciples. Tao Hongjing, the founder of the Maoshan School, wrote "The Monument of Wu Taiji Zuoxian Gong Ge Gong": "The cloud seal dragon chapter is issued in Lin Xiu." It is documented.

In addition, Du Guangting of Shu State wrote "Hu Chang Shi Xiu Huang Zheng Zhai Ci": "The golden rule, the cloud seal Yao Zhang, the first ten thousand laws to vertical text, with nine streams and save the world." are all documented.

As the foundation of the five techniques of mountain, medicine, divination, life and physiognomy, Fu Gong is the most basic homework of every Taoist priest, and it must be learned at the beginning. The talisman is composed of five elements: "talisman head", "main god and Buddha", "talisman belly", "talisman foot", "talisman gall" and so on.

The Lingbao School advocates that cultivators should not only seek to become immortals, but also help others to do good deeds and attain the enlightenment of sentient beings. It also proposed the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Therefore, the view of the Lingbao sect was very fashionable at that time.

After Jiang Ming studied the scriptures for a month, he divided everyone into groups. Those who like to usher in the send-off are divided into two groups, each group of five men and one woman, and follow the prefect and deputy prefect.

If you like to immerse yourself in cultivation, you can divide a group of followers. Those who are interested in the sacrificial dojo have jurisdiction and a separate group. The remaining two groups followed the fat man and him, going out to receive incense. I am a foreign aid in the outgoing group, and I will go to reinforcements wherever there is injustice.

The squad leader, the chubby girl Xiaoxia, is in the fat group, and she is particularly interested in the formation. The deputy squad leader glasses man and Jiang Ming, he admired this senior brother very much.

These thirty-six little Taoist priests worship the master Ge Tong, the head of the family. But the master can't bring so many people. So let the four juniors bring it, and Jiang Ming also brought some. There is only one master, called Du Shi, but you can learn from other masters, so you are called a master.

Those four uncles are all apprentices of the little Taoist, so the pressure on the head of the family is not so great. Jiang Ming is a substitute teacher because he is the elder brother of this generation.

And I was happy to be idle, borrowed two scriptures, and gnawed slowly.

Jiang Ming wants to apply for Taoist priest certificates for his younger brothers and sisters, but it is understood that only Taoist priests who have passed the degree are eligible to obtain Taoist priest certificates. It should be recommended by the Taoist temple and reported by the local Taoist association. Only with the approval of the China Taoist Association can the Taoist certificate be issued, and there is a quota for the Taoist certificate every year. Quite a hassle.

If you apply for a refuge certificate, you can do it yourself, but the credibility is not high. So I asked Uncle Shi to print a hundred exquisite transmission certificates.

Those who become monks and enter the Tao as Taoist priests must be taught by a master, and after investigation, they will be taught as official Taoist priests. Taoism is extremely cautious about teaching its disciples the secret way, and no matter what sect, it is a precept to spread the secret path in vain. The transmission must be guided by the master, so you must first apprentice to the master, and after the transmission, you will become an introductory Taoist.

His younger brothers and sisters all got the transmission certificates, and they were all very excited.

Jiang Ming said: "The two groups that went out listened well, and they will go out next month, go to Yichun with my group, and go to Zhangshu with Brother Wu Dao's group." "Brother Wu Dao is the fat man Wu Huisheng.

When all the juniors and disciples heard that they could go out, they were very happy. Jiang Ming continued: "We all have tasks when we go out, and we want to make money, ah no, it's incense money!" "The juniors below are all laughing, is there a difference? It's just called differently.

"Because we want to develop Taoist temples, we need money. Our ancestor said that cultivators should not only seek to become immortals, but also help others, do good deeds to attain the Tao, and benefit sentient beings. When we are purifying sentient beings, we should collect a little incense money by the way, so that we can be worthy of our faith. ”

"Therefore, I will set a standard for everyone, in the camphor group, you have to pay 500,000 yuan a month. Follow me to Yichun for this group, a million! After Jiang Ming finished speaking, the two groups of juniors and disciples who went out were discussing. In the past 08 years, 500,000 is not a small amount.

The glasses man spoke, and the glasses man was called Zhang Zhidong. He said, "Senior brother, we will recite the scriptures and hold the mantra, how can we accept this incense money?" And it costs 500,000 a month, six or seven of us, can we complete the task? ”

Zhang Zhidong's words represent the thoughts of most people. The fat group, the little chubby girl named Xiaoxia, was also nodding violently.

She said: "Being a Taoist priest is our hobby, although now we have a transmission certificate that can prove our identity, but our skills are insufficient." ”

Jiang Ming said: "Just because we are Taoist priests, we subdue demons and subdue demons, cure diseases and save people, and choose feng shui and choose days are all our strengths." Especially for treating diseases and saving people, which group encounters a serious patient, you can let me go, if I can't leave, you can ask the master to go out of the mountain. ”

Ge Tong is the head of a faction, and he used to be embarrassed to treat others, but the patients found by his apprentices have a reason. Then Jiang Ming focused on teaching these two groups of juniors how to pay incense and fire money.

He also had a rule that all the incense money could not be handled, and the donor must go to the mountain to put incense and bow down, and then pay the incense money. Jiang Ming's approach was actually to expand the fame of the Pavilion Soap Sect.

A batch of custom-made peach wood swords, money swords, and some copper coins, copper bells, copper compasses, and blankets commonly used by Taoist priests were delivered.

This blanket is a large handbag sewn from burlap, with an opening in the middle and two sides of the bag, which can be placed on the shoulder. There are some rune paper, wool pens, ink cartridges, cinnabar boxes, envelopes, letterheads, seals, etc.

After more than a month of teaching, the disciples have mastered some practical knowledge, such as the five elements of earth fire, wood arrows, fortune telling, Kanyu, soul summoning, and ghost hunting. Of course, it hasn't been officially conferred yet, so it's not enough to play fireballs and draw spells.

Then Jiang Ming contacted two vans, pulled people to Zhangshu County, and as soon as they were put on the street, the cars left as soon as they smoked.

I was in a group with the fat man, and after getting out of the car, I looked around blankly. This Zhangshu County, when I came, I passed through once, I have no memory, and it is completely unfamiliar.

The six junior brothers and sisters who are with us, you also look at me and I look at you, I don't know what to do. The people on the surrounding streets looked at us, and the eight Taoist priests looked around blankly as soon as they got out of the car, this can't be another batch of liars, right?

The fat man and I wore floral clothes, the kind of Taoist priests who went out to recite scriptures, and a piece of clothing was full of patches. The rest of the people wore blue Taoist costumes.

The residents were pointing fingers, mainly at me and the fat man, and saying that these two were the leaders of the liars.

In the end, the fat man has enough experience in the rivers and lakes, he looked left and right, pointed to a façade not far away that said for rent, and said to take a look.

A bunch of us walked over and saw that it was a newly built façade, and the second and third floors were rented out together. The fourth floor is occupied by the landlord.

The fat man took out his mobile phone and called the number left on the façade, saying that he wanted to rent the façade and let the landlord come down. The landlord looked at the balcony on the fourth floor and looked puzzled.

After waiting for a while, the landlord came down. Pull the gate up with a bang, and see the fat man holding a mobile phone in his hand, saying that you want to rent a store?

The fat man said to take a look, and if it is suitable, he will rent it. Then walked in, and the landlord quickly turned on the lights. This newly built façade is brand new, and in order to rent it, the landlord has installed the stairs at the back, so the depth of this façade is more than ten meters.

After looking at the first floor, the fat man went up to the second floor, and we all followed. There are two rooms on the second floor, one large and one small. The fat man asked the landlord, is the third floor also like this? The landlord nodded yes, the third floor, the fourth floor, and the fifth floor are all the same layout.

The fat man said that this layout is not good, and it is convenient to rent, but it has an impact on the health of his family. I noticed a change in the landlord's face.

In the end, it was agreed that the first floor was 1,200 and the second and third floors were 300 each, for a total of 1,800 months, but the payment was to be made quarterly. The landlord said that the neighborhood is rented like this, and his is a new house, depending on your sincerity, so the price is the same as the neighborhood.

Is there any insincerity in renting a house? I don't understand anyway.

The fat man went to the ATM and took out 10,000 yuan, paid a deposit of 7,000 yuan and a quarter's rent, and signed the contract. The landlord happily took the key.

The fat man handed over the key and 3,000 yuan to that Xiaoxia, and said that you go to buy things, five bunk beds, one set of keys per person, and then buy all the cooking things.

He said that it will be opened in the future, and the 10,000 yuan will have to be made up for him first, and the rest will be handed over to your sect. Xiaoxia nodded again and again.

She led everyone out, and she didn't panic when she had money in her hands. The fat man pulled me to go shopping, and I said where to go? He said to find an advertising store and decorate the storefront. Didn't I say rent it? How to decorate the façade? He said you don't understand, right? It's the same as doing business, how can there be customers without a storefront?

The façade has been renovated, and there is a large billboard on it: Gesoshan Chongzhen Palace Office. Both sides of the door also use antique pattern background, write business projects, what fortune telling to choose the day, astrological calculation, strange and difficult diseases, can be selected treasure land. What a hodgepodge.

Inside, separated from the middle, there was a large table in front of it, covered with red cloth and satin, and a few chairs. The wall that separates it is made into a large billboard, with the Chongzhen Palace office in Gesoshan on top and a bunch of business projects below.

Xiaoxia bought the kitchen utensils back and cooked right behind the wall. Now that everything is in place, it's time to make a big difference.

On the first day of opening, the fat man asked six junior brothers and sisters to distribute flyers and printed some business items on pink A4 paper. The fat man said that he specially sent those old residential areas, and by the way, he looked at the feng shui, and the residences with bad feng shui were focused.

This looks at Feng Shui is the strength of Taoist priests, and there is a lot of theoretical knowledge in the stomach.

The next morning, the fat man and I were drinking tea around the big table. A pickup truck stopped at the door, and the middle-aged man driving the car got out of the car and was looking at our advertising sign. Seeing his hesitant expression, the fat man said, business is coming.
