Chapter 206: Sacrifice to the Gods [Second Update]
Wenqu Xingjun's mortal body, this newly-born baby, was finally named Xu Shilin by Xu Xian as the original. Just by looking at the name, you can know Xu Xian's ardent hope for it: a smooth career and a smooth career.
There is no doubt that this is Xu Xian's mortal consciousness. After all, in his opinion, this kind of officialdom is the thing that can glorify the ancestors.
But Xiaoqing was a little dissatisfied with this, she felt that as her sister's child, the earthly road of the official eunuch was really nothing, and this child should embark on the path of cultivation like them, and cultivate together to achieve positive results and ascend to heaven.
But alas, this is not possible.
If it is an ordinary practitioner who is reincarnated and reborn, then needless to say, he must re-follow the path of cultivation, once he has achieved success in his practice, not only has he achieved success in his current life, but he can also recall the emotional experience of his previous life, which can be said to be the rebirth of the Eight Classics. In this case, most cultivators will go further in their cultivation, after all, the accumulation of a lifetime cannot be underestimated.
But it is different for the Star Monarch to descend to the earth, for them, as long as they complete the task of mortal body in the mortal world, and have a complete result, they can retrieve the scattered divine power from heaven and earth on the day when their life reaches the end of their life, and return to the Star Monarch Divine Position. So for them, it's not necessary to go back to the path of cultivation. In fact, this is still a bit light, if it is really a clear analysis, it is known that it is not only unnecessary for them to re-take the path of cultivation, but also should not be: if the path of cultivation of mortal bodies in this world is crooked and does not match the divine power of the Star Monarch, then what should they do when the time comes? Wouldn't there be trouble in retrieving the divine power and returning to the Star Monarch Divine Position?
This is undoubtedly a situation that must never happen, so from the very beginning, Lin Mo knew that it was absolutely impossible for Xu Shilin to embark on the path of cultivation. Xiaoqing's ardent expectations could only be completely disappointed.
So at lunchtime, Xiaoqing quarreled with Xu Xian for the third time because of his name. Then after slamming the bowl out angrily, Lin Mo rolled his eyes helplessly: This guy is really stubborn. Both parents agreed, what kind of heart do you still have!
"Don't be angry, Xiaoqing just has some expectations too much." Bai Suzhen still acts as a peacemaker between her husband and sister: "She is the one who has a quick temper, don't take it to heart." ”
Xu Xian put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Don't worry, lady, I understand." After a pause, he said with some hesitation: "It's just, what do you think, lady, do you have any arrangements for Shilin in your heart?" ”
Lin Mo listened. knew that Xu Xian also began to mumble in his heart. After all, Bai Suzhen is also a cultivator, and he is a cultivator whose mana cultivation is at the peak of the mortal world, even Xiaoqing wants to take Xu Shilin to the path of cultivation, will Bai Suzhen not have this idea? If according to the original development of the legend, Bai Suzhen was taken away by Fahai and pressed under the Lei Feng Pagoda, and Xiaoqing also entered the mountains to practice penance in order to take revenge, at this time Xu Shilin had no one to guide the cultivation, so naturally there was no need to say much. But right now, Bai Suzhen Xiaoqing is still there, and it is also appropriate to have this idea.
"If Bai Suzhen wants to do this, then it will be troublesome, and Xu Xian will probably not object." Lin Mo thought in his heart. sighed secretly: "Then at that time, in order not to cause a lot of trouble in the future, I have to come out to stop it!" ”
Wenqu Xingjun if he can't get back his divine power. If you can't return to the Star Monarch Divine Position, it won't be a simple matter. At that time, I am afraid that even Xu Xian Bai Suzhen will be in trouble.
Just as Lin Mo made up his mind. When she wanted to come up with an explanation to persuade Bai Suzhen to retract her idea of letting Xu Shilin enter the path of cultivation, Bai Suzhen said an unexpected answer: "Don't worry, official, I won't take the initiative to teach Shilin anything about cultivation." ”
Alas?! Lin Mo and Xu Xian were both taken aback, and looked at Bai Suzhen in disbelief.
"Lady, is my idea making you scruples?" Xu Xian's eyes widened: "Lady don't care, this is our child, whatever you have should think, we can discuss and decide." ”
Bai Suzhen shook her head and denied: "No, official, that's what I think." ”
"Uh, why is that, lady?"
"I just think that this child's future path may not be suitable for cultivation." Bai Suzhen lowered her head, looked at the baby sleeping soundly in her arms, and said slowly: "No, maybe for him, cultivation is not necessary at all." ”
Lin Mo was startled and exclaimed: "Bai Suzhen, you! ”
On formal occasions, Lin Mo has always called Bai Suzhen Mrs. Xu, but this time he didn't care about it, and directly called Bai Suzhen's name - this is really surprising! What is the meaning of 'not necessarily suitable for cultivation', 'cultivation is not necessary at all', has Bai Suzhen realized something?
"Dao Chief, you don't have to say it. I don't know anything. Bai Suzhen opened her mouth to interrupt Lin Mo's words, didn't look up, still looked down at the baby in her arms, and said softly: "If he takes the initiative to ask for cultivation, I will teach him." If he doesn't want to, I won't force it. I just want to take care of my kids. “
When Lin Mo heard this, he was speechless.
There is no doubt that Bai Suzhen, who has recovered some cultivation, is no longer the weak woman who has no mana at all, even if she is a centipede spirit and a toad essence, she has regained her due vision and can see what she should see.
Even if Bai Suzhen didn't know that her child was the reincarnation of Wenqu Xingjun, most of them had already guessed that his background was extraordinary. She is just doing well now, wanting to enjoy the mortal affection while her child is still just her child. As for the rest, it's completely natural. ’
Thinking about this, Lin Mo sighed in his heart, didn't say anything, just continued to pick up his chopsticks and buried himself in eating.
Although Xu Xian didn't understand their answer, he understood the current situation, and immediately nodded: "Okay, lady, you can arrange it." ”
Bai Suzhen raised her head and smiled at her gently: "Xie Guanren." ”
Regarding Xu Shilin's future, it has been completely decided, and since then, Xiaoqing has never talked about this, Xu Xian has never mentioned it, and even Bai Suzhen seems to have never said anything, just trying her best to take care of the baby.
It wasn't until Xu Shilin's full moon that another thing happened.
Perhaps it was a coincidence, Xu Shilin was born on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the day when the common people in the earthly world worshiped the gods and Buddhas was also the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
So when he arrived at Shatian, Xu Xian not only invited relatives and friends to have a banquet at noon, but also bought a suckling pig or something in the evening, and put a big incense case in the backyard of Xu's house, and put all the gods in the family on the tablet. Lin Mo saw it and thought it was quite interesting, so he also joined in, and then began to worship one by one.
If it is an ordinary mortal, they may kneel on the ground without saying a word, kowtow three times directly to the many tablets, and then shout 'Kowtow to the gods, please bless us with peace, joy, happiness, longevity and health', but Bai Suzhen and Lin Mo, who are cultivators, will not be so casual, and must worship in order seriously.
The first one to worship is naturally the supreme god of the heavenly court, the Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Venerable, who leads the heavens and all the worlds. For this god, whether it is Lin Mo or Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing or Xiaoqian, they are all very respectful, and they dare not be sloppy in the slightest.
The second one to worship is naturally the Sanqing Daozun. These three are of the same origin, which can be counted as one and differentiated, so they can also be worshiped together.
As for the next, there are the Four Imperial Emperors. These four are not ranked in succession, but when worshipping the Emperor of the Arctic Zhongtian Crape Myrtle, Lin Mo couldn't help but be a little stricter; As for Chengtian to imitate the Emperor of Houtu, it is Xiaoqian's most fearful and cautious; When it came to the Emperor of Gouchen Shanggong, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were the most serious; And the last Antarctic Immortal Emperor, it was Xu Xian's turn to kowtow constantly.
This is actually a very interesting thing: in the small backyard of Xu's mansion, there is such a peculiar division.
Lin Mo was more serious about the Ziwei Emperor because most of his combat power was on the Ziwei Star Bucket Mirror, and he always relied on Zhou Tianxing's strength to fight the enemy, coupled with the storage of the Ziwei Rune; And Xiao Qian is from a ghost class and belongs to the jurisdiction of the underworld ruled by the Emperor Houtu, so she is also in awe; As for Emperor Gou Chen, this master is in charge of the war and struggle in the world, if there is a big demon that disturbs the world, it is mostly this emperor who is responsible, so Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing have to be careful; And Xu Xian respects the Antarctic Immortal Emperor the most, because this emperor is in charge of good luck, has the most fame in the world, and enjoys the most sacrifices, whether it is from the benefit or the majesty, Xu Xian, a mortal, naturally has to be more in awe.
Therefore, after worshipping these four emperors, Xu Xian, an unaware mortal, did not say anything, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, Lin Mo and the others looked at each other strangely, and they all felt a little crying and laughing. Fortunately, everyone still understood what to do next, so they didn't say anything at the moment, just continued to worship.
In this order, the next ones are the Heavenly Court Righteous Gods.
For this, Lin Mo was also quite curious, after all, the four emperors were okay to say, but there were too many gods in the heavenly court, how should this order be arranged? Which one will Bai Suzhen arrange to worship first? He thinks it's a big deal.
The answer was soon revealed, the god who was worshipped immediately after the five emperors was a god who was no less famous than them, and in a sense, this god had a very wonderful relationship with one of the four emperors.
"Antarctic Immortals?" Lin Mo's eyes widened: "It turned out to be this one?" ”
Bai Suzhen smiled and nodded: "Dao Chief, can you still remember that when the official spirit entered the Huangquan Dao, you and I brought it back, and after the Antarctic Immortal Weng opened the net, I was able to get the Yaochi Immortal Grass and save the official." ”
Lin Mo nodded suddenly: With this kind of great grace, of course we have to sacrifice first, even if the other gods are dissatisfied, they have nothing to say.
So without saying a word, the crowd bent down again to worship.
But this time the anomaly suddenly appeared, when his waist was just bent, Lin Mo's eyes flashed with golden light, and he had been ingested into a world full of golden rays.
This déjà vu experience that he had not long ago immediately made Lin Mo blurt out: "Still coming?!" (To be continued......)
