When the time of the next day was close to the hour, the fat man put on a new set of clothes, took a new set of clothes for Yang Qiye, and accompanied by me and Uncle Qingsong, walked from home to Zen Yi Hall, ready to worship Yang Qiye as a teacher.

Congshi is a title other than his own teacher, and the fat man's first master is Uncle Qingsong, who is also his teacher.

Speaking of which, many people may find it strange, they all say that the master is like a father, the apprentice is like a son, and the master is still alive, how can you worship the second person as a teacher, and you are not afraid that the master will know about it, and will be struck by thunder and thunder?

However, no matter in Taoism, not only does this not violate ethics, but the master will also encourage you to go to the two more teachers to learn more things. Because the five techniques of Taoism are broad and profound, although the mountain medicine and fortune divination are not separated, they are applied to each other in numerology and feng shui, and the town is used to drive away evil spirits. However, many people spend their entire lives in poverty, and they can only understand the essence of one of the techniques after using their limited experience.

Therefore, in order for the apprentice to be able to get better guidance, even if you do not apprentice, once the master thinks that you have a talent in another technique, and although you know this technique, you are not proficient. In order not to waste your talent, he will also introduce you to a master. Of course, the first master is always irreplaceable, we call him the master, and the master who worships after us, we call him the teacher, the teacher. Not only the Dharma teachings, but also Taoism and Buddhism, sometimes introduce disciples and teachers to each other.

As the representative of the Dharma in Guangdong and Guangzhou, and Yang Qiye is quite famous in the folk Dharma teachings, so before dawn, many colleagues rushed to congratulate Yang Qiye when they heard the news, and many people stayed in the Zen Yi Hall to watch the apprenticeship ceremony. This is not about the comprehension of spells, it is just a ritual.

When the fat man and I came to the Zen Yi Hall, it was already full of people, most of whom were colleagues who had come from outside the city or neighbors who were watching the excitement.

Yang Qiye sat on a chair in the middle of the hall, and at the distance from the door to the middle of the hall, there were a total of 36 water bowls, all of which were filled with water and placed on the ground in the order of thirty-six Tiangang.

I was taken aback at the sight of these thirty-six bowls of water, but at the same time I was surprised and happy for the fat man.

Although the procedure for admitting disciples in folk Buddhism is not as cumbersome as Taoism, it is simpler and more challenging.

First of all, the master will look at your eight characters, although a person's eight characters are said to be the master's innate destiny, but he can also see whether he is related to the Tao. If there is a star in the eight characters, the master will never accept you as an apprentice, and those who have two stars in their life can learn feng shui and easy arts, but they have no relationship with the Tao, and they cannot communicate with the gods.

If there is no double star in life, and there is a fate with the Tao, the master will choose the day when the gods and Buddhas return to their positions according to the eight characters and the punishment of the passing years, and choose that day to worship the teacher.

The rules and tests of apprenticeship are usually varied, such as passing the water bowl, which is one of the tests of Huaguang Dharma.

After the master puts down the water bowls, the apprentice has to step on these bowls barefoot, if you fall down in the process, or the water in the bowl is leaked, even if you sit on the throne of the gods and Buddhas, and the ten gods are printing and seeing the canopy, the master will not accept you as an apprentice.

However, there are also levels of treading water bowls, usually the folk master has taught, and there are seven water bowls arranged according to the seven-star formation on the ground, and the second time has been taught, and then thirty-six are placed, and the third time is seventy-two. Some people once divided the Dharma Maoshan into lower Mao, middle Mao, and upper Mao, thinking that these are three Maoshan schools. In fact, this is a mistake for outsiders, and the upper, middle and lower three Mao only refer to the three different levels of cultivation in the Maoshan Method, and the results of the cultivation revealed through the three levels of the Fa. Lower the Mao to invite ghosts, the middle Mao to exorcise evil and subdue demons to cultivate the soul, the upper Mao Heaven and Man are one, and the main Lei Fa is cultivated.

If you divide Maoshan into these three levels, then you can also divide Huaguang into three levels according to the number of bowls. According to common sense, when each apprentice first started, the master taught the apprentice with seven water bowls, and after the apprentice had practiced for a long time, he taught with thirty-six water bowls. Many masters in the folk are regarded as biological apprentices, or biological fathers and sons. Otherwise, it is rare for someone to put down the formation of thirty-six Tiangang for the first time. This kind of teaching, which belongs to the second level, is even more powerful. After the apprentice has passed, the usage is more intelligent than the first time he has been taught, and he can reach the realm of the master being on hand and moving the method, without worrying about cheating.

This is also the reason why I am surprised at the same time, but also happy for the fat man, as long as the fat man passes these thirty-six water bowls, then I think the next will not be a problem.

With the fat man's martial arts skills for many years, it is definitely not a problem to pass thirty-six water bowls. It's just that this heavy body, I have a feeling of horror when I look at it, I am not afraid that he will fall, but I am afraid that the bowl on the ground will break, after all, ...... A bowl costs a few bucks.

Fortunately, today's fat man's character broke out, and he didn't break the bowl, after passing the water bowl, he then told Patriarch Huaguang and asked for his opinion!

How to ask...... Here again, a key issue in the teaching of the Fa is a hexagram. The hexagram here refers to two cups made of horns, and some people call them god cups. This kind of temple cup temple in the temple is almost a pair of people's hands, when you go to ask about the future and ask about the family wealth, the temple will kneel in front of the gods for you to play the hexagram, both sides are yang, both sides are yin, one positive and one reverse is yin and yang auspicious hexagram.

This is also the most critical step in the Dharma teaching, after telling the patriarch, you need to make a hexagram, once is the most, three times is better. After three times, if you can't play the yin and yang cup, it proves that Master Zu disagrees. Although there are also peers in the folk who have made hard hexagrams for money, they have read more than a dozen paragraphs of sparse texts, and they have played ten or eight times until they have typed the yin and yang hexagrams, but this kind of hard hexagram is not of much use. Even if you get started, I'm afraid you won't be able to use spells.

After Yang Qiye told his ancestors, he threw the two god cups into the ground, and played the yang cup for the first time.

Master Zu agreed, and the rest of the matter is irrelevant, it is all some rituals and procedures, which need to be written on the table, and some precepts that need to be followed after the apprentice enters the Tao, etc

Of course, it is indispensable to send stones to hide souls, and to teach the method, but these two procedures are the secrets of the secret. Needless to say, the Hidden Soul Card is also a secret in the door, and outsiders can't listen to it.

It's just that Huaguang's martial arts are the yang of the yang, so it is not suitable to be taught at night, and the time to teach the martial arts is usually during the day, and the place where the law is taught is an unknown mountain.

After the procedure was completed, the seventh master left the heavy man and took the fat man to the mountain in a car. Although I was also curious, I knew that this was a secret of the sect, and I couldn't let me snoop into it, so I had to sit with everyone and eat the eight treasure rice and dishes.

It was about seven o'clock in the evening, and the seventh master led the fat man back, and after coming back, he went directly into the room. After about two hours, Yang Qiye's call came from the room again

"Haisheng, come in with you!"

There was a voice from the seventh master in the room, and when I first heard it, I was stunned, and I was inexplicably asked to go in.

Finally, Uncle Qingsong nodded at me and said, "You go in!" I walked into the room calmly

Emperor Wuxian Huaguang sat majestically in the urn of the room, and on the ground were Yang Qiye and the fat man. The fat man clasped his hands together and stood beside Yang Qiye reverently.

And Yang Qiye was holding a bowl of wine in his hand, and after I closed the door, he raised his head and drank the wine in his stomach.

I was so puzzled that I asked the fat man, "What is the Seventh Master doing?" The fat man made a silent gesture, shushed, and motioned for me not to make a noise yet.

Not long after, there was a sudden angry cry from the house, like thunder and rage, and the Tao struck people's hearts, making my heart suddenly panic.

I searched for the sound, and this angry shout came from the mouth of the seventh master. Look at his face flushed again, and fine sweat left the corners of his eyes on his forehead.

Seeing him raise his feet and prepare to stomp on the ground, the fat man and I were so frightened that we quickly covered our ears.

It wasn't long before there was a rumbling sound in the flatland, and even though I covered my ears, I could feel the fog in my head.

When I came back to my senses and opened my eyes, I saw that the seventh master was standing not far away, closing his eyes, standing like an old monk and not speaking.

There was an atmosphere of loneliness in the room, and if I had to describe it, it would be the dead silence of everything, the lack of any life, and the gray patch in front of me.

Suddenly, the seventh master opened his eyes, and two lightning rays hit me in his eyes, making me involuntarily fall backwards.

At this moment, I finally understood what the seventh master was doing? He's asking for a teacher.

This is a procedure that ordinary people can't know, and we insiders call it the Yin Master Dharma. When accepting apprentices, the master will ask the dead seniors of the master to come up, or teach the apprentice the two lost secret methods, or give the apprentice some guidance. And most of the Yin monks invited by the master were Taoist priests from all over the world, whether it was teaching the law or giving guidance, they could benefit the apprentices a lot.

Thinking of this, I couldn't stop being excited, since Yang Qiye called me in, it naturally meant that I could also listen to the Fa taught by the Yin Master. Although there are different ways of teaching, it is also beneficial for me to learn more about them.

As I thought, it didn't take long for the old monk to speak.

"You two, come here." Compared with Yang Qiye's neutral voice, this voice is like a septuagenarian, with a trace of exhaustion in the vicissitudes of life.

It's just that the fat man and I don't dare to underestimate this upper body Yin Master, looking at the momentum that he just opened his eyes before, we can definitely imagine that this old man must not be an ordinary person in his lifetime.

When the fat man and I walked in front of the possessed Yang Qiye, he gasped and screamed in surprise as he looked at us

"Humane Lone Star, Buddha Dao Shura."

The fat man and I looked at each other, what the hell this Yin Master said in his mouth, it was a lone star and a Shura.

The strange thing didn't end there, he said something we didn't understand, and then touched and erased it on us. To be precise, he was measuring our bones with his hands, which is one of the lost techniques, and even me and the fat man don't know the secret.

He paused for a moment on the fat man's forehead, and again when he touched my armpit. After half a ring, he said to me and the fat man with a solemn expression: "I have nothing to teach you, the only thing I can tell you is two sentences, and you should remember them carefully." ”

The fat man and I hurriedly cheered up and didn't dare to be negligent

"Red is a furnace, love is like a tiger, a thought becomes a Buddha, a thought becomes a demon." This is what he said to the fat man.

"Relying on ghosts, floating all your life, hatred is like maggots, so you can do it yourself." That's what he said to me.

"Alright, I'm tired, it's time to go. Before you go, let me leave something for you two juniors. When he said this, the Seventh Master's body became rickety, like a dying old man.

He slit his middle finger and dripped two drops of blood in a bowl full of wine. Then he lay down on the table next to him and slowly fell asleep.

The two drops of blood slowly melted away, and the whole bowl turned red, and it didn't take long for something to surface.

The fat man and I walked up to take a look, but it was two strings of small leaf red sandalwood bracelets. Seeing this, the fat man and I also understood that this was a gift left by the Yin Master for the two of us.

The fat man and I each picked up a string and put it on our wrists, and at this time, Yang Qiye also woke up.

"Seventh Uncle ......" The fat man raised the small leaf red sandalwood on his wrist, but was interrupted by Yang Qiye's wave of his hand.

"Don't ask, don't say, since it was left for you by the Yin Master, then you just wear it." That's what the Seventh Master told us.

"Get out!" The seventh master waved at us tiredly

The fat man and I each looked at each other, and then respectfully withdrew.

Although it was a little inexplicable, and he didn't learn any spells, he earned a bunch of small leaves of red sandalwood, and the fat man's mood was also exceptionally good. When he came out, he quietly pulled my shoulder and muttered, "It looks like a good thing, and it can be sold for two dollars when you don't have money." ”

I; ......, "Fat man, how short of money should you be?" ”
