Library.

It is a small building donated by Fat Qiao, the first floor is a large study, the innermost wall against the wall is a wall full of bookshelves, and then a chair and a large solid wood writing desk, the master sits on the chair and writes on the desk.

The rest of the long desks were against the wall, and we all sat here, facing the wall.

There are only three floors in the library, but each floor is very large, so there are many desks and it is not cramped.

The second floor is full of books, as well as Master's bed, which is Master's residence.

The third floor is also full of books.

In order to prevent fires, many fire extinguishers were installed on the walls of the library building. We all wash our hands and polish the soles of our shoes before we come in.

There are a lot of books in the collection, I thought they were all Taoist, but it turned out that there was everything.

Taoist scriptures, Buddhist scriptures, Bibles, story clubs, readers, youth digests, science fiction worlds are everything, there are many books that are old, the fourth senior brother said that these books Fat Qiao donated a part, and the rest was led by the master to the scrap yard to collect, and now several scrap yards know the master, and there are good books to keep.

Master said, "There is nothing wrong with being a human being and reading more, and whatever you read can be beneficial to mankind." ”

Senior Brother suddenly stood up and listened to the voice: "Master, Fat Qiao is here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the outside say, "Is Dao Ye inside?" Oh my! When did you raise such a big dog, oh I ...... Biting doesn't bite. ”

Qiao Ruiyuan pushed the door open and came in, followed by two little monks, fat people love to sweat, every time they see him, they wipe their sweat before they speak. "Master Dao, I'm here to ask for three hundred five-way God of Wealth runes. ”

Master said, "This time it's going to be so much." Fat Qiao said: "Isn't this an activity in the temple? There is also the charm you drawn, everyone rushed to ask for it, and the last time the 200 pictures were invited back." ”

To tell the truth, Fat Qiao is not a bad person, he is very slippery, but he knows who to slip on, and he is very humble in front of our master.

The master beckoned me to send back the books I was reading, and everyone began to write the symbols, and the spine of the books was numbered, and I put them back one by one, and as a result, on the bookshelf next to me, I saw a series of books banned by the state order, such as "Shaofu Baijie", "Ali Buda Chronicles", "History of the Bastard Kamikaze Cow", "The Sleeping Dancing God", etc., I took out a copy and flipped through it, and turned two pages to see that it read:

Before Satan comes to earth, he will fall into human beings, confuse their minds, manipulate their behavior, and make them fight against each other for righteousness.

One of the thirteen incarnations of Satan the Devil, is a wild boar, covered in green hair with sharp fangs, this book will be a disaster to the world, and it will be killed immediately to prevent future troubles. I put the book back and looked at the bookshelf name, the forbidden book area. I'll go, Master's taste is okay, it's all there.

After going downstairs, everyone has already begun to prepare to draw talismans.

Everyone first went to the main hall, knelt down with incense, blessed the gods of heaven and earth, took out paper and ink or cinnabar, sat upright, and thought about luck.

The senior brother took out a pile of yellow rune paper, measured the length and width with a ruler, cut it into the prescribed strips with a paper cutter, and then gave it to the master and the third senior brother.

He took out a pile of yellow rough-edged paper, measured the length and width with a ruler, and then cut it into strips and handed it to the fourth senior brother.

The master polished the cinnabar ink and began to write the talismans, which were very elaborate on drawing the talismans, and they had to draw the talismans in one go, without any interruptions in between. When drawing a talisman, blow into the talisman and gently recite the mantra with your mouth while drawing.

Although the third senior brother is missing two fingers, he does not delay his writing at all, but the third senior brother uses cinnabar liquid, not cinnabar liquid, but before writing, put some cinnabar powder in it and mix it with cinnabar liquid to write together.

The fourth senior brother took out a printing plate here, adjusted the cinnabar powder and vermilion liquid on the printing pad, and then dipped it in the vermilion liquid, and printed it on the yellow rough-edged paper, you read it right, the fourth-senior brother used thickened rough-edged paper, the paper is very yellow, but it is not as conspicuous as the color of the yellow rune paper.

Yellow rune paper is not yellow paper, the texture is very meticulous, but also relatively hard, if it is written on it is easier to do, the fourth brother of this kind of printing plate, the printed pattern will be incomplete, because it does not absorb ink much, if you ink too much, the printed pattern will even be paste, so at this time raw edge paper is the best choice.

Master and Third Senior Brother are handwritten because they are handwritten, so they write slowly, and sometimes they have to be thrown away if they are wrong, so you can see that the drawn characters seem to be messy, but they are not written blindly.

The fourth senior brother was very fast, and he printed one after another.

I was standing next and didn't know what to do, so Master said, "You don't have to work first, let's see how they do it, and remember the general process." “

Three hundred five-way God of Wealth runes, the fourth senior brother will complete them first, and then check the effect of printing.

Qiao Ruiyuan and the little monks took out a lot of small boxes and bags.

The small box is beautifully crafted, with Buddhist motifs painted on it, and the six-character mantra is also written, 唵 (ōng) 嘛 (ma) 張 (nī) horn (bēi) ທ (mēi) 吽 (hōng).

Then there are the small cloth bags, which are also beautifully embroidered, with Buddhist motifs embroidered with that kind of shining gold thread.

The third is a blue or yellow cloth bag with a large Buddha character printed on it.

When the master was done, he was sweating on his head, and the third senior brother was also busy.

After the talisman was written, after the talisman was dry, the master took the seal of the Taoist master's treasure and dipped it in cinnabar liquid, and printed it on each talisman.

The Taoist Shibao print is covered on the top of the talisman, so it looks a little messy, but the simple talisman has no power, and it is obviously imposing after the big seal is stamped.

Seeing that I was fascinated, the master said, "There is no effect after the Fu is written, only the seal from the ancestor has an effect, the Fu itself is equivalent to a command, and the seal is equivalent to the launch key, and the seal has an effect when it is stamped on it." Therefore, the effect of printing is equivalent to the Enter key or @ on the keyboard, which means to tell the ancestor that the charm is finished, please bless the divine power. I can also add a gossip seal to this talisman, and one talisman can be stamped with up to three seals. ”

Qiao Ruiyuan said: "Master Dao, the gossip seal will be exempted, in case they buy it and dismantle it, it is not good to find that there is gossip on it." ”

The fourth senior brother smiled and said: "Haha, you said that you are really interesting, you have to come to our Taoist family to buy talismans for the affairs of your Buddhist family, haha, this is going to be laughed at to death." ”

Qiao Ruiyuan was not annoyed, he said: "There is no such thing as writing talismans in Buddhism, I came to you to ask for talismans, isn't this so that the believers can come back and be a little more spiritual, we can also write it ourselves, but this writing has no effect, and the people don't approve of it." ”

Don't talk about this fat monk, it's a little interesting, it's really for the sake of the donors.

The fourth senior brother's Taoist treasure is the kind of nine pieces and nine free shipping on Taobao, wooden, the font is still laser engraved, he covered it quickly, and after a hundred were over, he sat on the chair and poured a sip of tea.

The monks waited until the cinnabar liquid on the talisman was dry, they folded the long strips of talisman paper into a triangle, and then the senior brother put away the three grades of talismans and put them in front of Sanqing, I didn't know what to do the whole time, I only knew that everyone kowtowed and I also kowtowed.

Everyone drank tea and chatted, and after about an hour, they took back the rune paper in front of the statue of Sanqing.

The monks began to get busy

After the master's talisman was written, they folded it and put it into a small wooden box, and the mouth of the box was also affixed with a Buddhist sticker seal.

The third brother's quilt was packed into a small cloth bag with beautiful embroidery.

The talisman printed on the plate of the fourth senior brother was put into a small cloth bag with the word Buddha printed on it, and then as soon as he pulled the rope at the mouth of the bag, the cloth bag was tightened.

It seems that this is a three-grade symbol.

The monks also sat down after they were done, took out the thermos cup and drank it, what came from Qiao Ruiyuan's quilt was actually the smell of milk tea, it was a bag of fragrant and fragrant taro-flavored milk tea for one dollar, hahaha, this monk is really funny.

Qiao Ruiyuan left five hundred yuan and led the little monks away.

We collected things here, and threw the discarded talismans into the Shiding incense burner and burned them.

The fourth senior brother said, "Master, this monk only gave us 500 yuan, and these talismans are in the hands of the monks, more than 50,000 yuan." ”

Master said, "Why do you care so much? Some people are naturally suitable for marketing, and we can't compare.

Also, this is a Taoist temple and not a business, more money and less money more or less means this.

Although Qiao Ruiyuan is a flower monk, he is kind-hearted, he has given us rice and noodles, and he has asked his subordinates to send things during the New Year's Festival, how much do you think these are converted?

So Qiao Ruiyuan gave money, and if he didn't give it, he wouldn't give it, and I couldn't watch it and not help.

If our Taoist temple is open to the outside world and there are too many laypeople, how can we still cultivate Taoism? The teachings of Taoism are destined not to be too close to the people, and this is very good. Although we are not preaching directly, it is also a good thing to let Master Zu's things spread in the hands of the common people through Qiao Ruiyuan. ”
