Chapter 16: The Congratulations of the Nine Heavens (I)
When all the guests entered, Jun Zhengren and the five returned to the courtyard of Jun's house with some breathlessness.
"Whew, it's not easy to finally get the reception. Which one of the kills a thousand knives in the book says that the entertainment is not a matter, I put him in the chicken coop and connect the 'phoenix'. Junzhengjia said indignantly.
"Shut up!" the four siblings said angrily in unison.
"Alright, go back to your room and rest. You can choose not to go to the afternoon ceremony, I agreed for my father. A mouth full of feces. Jun Zhengren clapped his hands impatiently to drive people away.
"Haha. Fourth brother, let's go. It is also good to take a quiet bath while you have time. After speaking, Jun Zhengyou walked towards his courtyard.
Jun Zilan also said hello and returned to her courtyard.
In the afternoon, the circular worship square on the outskirts of the Jun family was burning incense at the moment, and it was overcrowded, except for the VIPs sitting in the front row, the crowd standing below had already been lively and discussed.
"The Jun family's nine-day celebration this time is really bold, and they have invited many forces inside and outside Yunzhou to witness it together. If it is organized by ordinary forces, I am afraid that it will be hasty and bone-wracking. β
"That's not, I heard the grapevine that this time the Jun family is ready to give away half of their interests in Pingjun to help the wife of the family in the Nine Heavens, which is not a bad spirit. β
The guests on the side all gasped and said, "Hey, half of it." As far as I know, the Jun family's countless years of operation in the county town have only accounted for half of the county's interests, and once they go to one-third of it, I don't think there is any force in Yunzhou that is as bold as the Jun family. β
"Don't forget, the wife of the Jun family, Wang Mingxiu, is also surnamed Wang, but she is one of the contemporary twin stars of the Wang family. The Wang family must also have new moves. The combined benefits of the two families, if they supported any ordinary force, were enough to cultivate a force that could compete with themselves. Therefore, if you think that so many forces come to watch the ceremony because they are applauded by watching the monkey show, then you are wrong. β
As soon as the guests finished speaking, on the altar platform, Jun Mingyao, the head of the Jun family, said loudly to the audience with a smile on his face: "Fellow Daoists, welcome to participate in the 39th birthday of the inner person sponsored by the Jun family and sponsored by the Wang family. Now that the nine-day celebration is about to take place, please remain solemn and bear with us. The following is to invite the Thousand Shadows High Priest of the Purple Mountain Monarch Temple to preside over the ceremony of worshipping the heavens. β
"What, the High Priest of Thousand Shadows of the Purple Mountain King Temple is here. The Jun family has really invested a lot of money this time. Since Qianying held the 49th birthday for a great power at the pinnacle of the world, it has been a thousand years since he no longer presided over the sacrifice to the heavens. Of the four great families of Pingjun, I am afraid that only the Jun family has the ability to invite the High Priest of Thousand Shadows. That's the Purple Mountain Monarch Temple, where the supreme glory of the Qingyun Realm lies......"
Ever since Jun Mingyao reported the High Priest of a Thousand Shadows, everyone couldn't help but talk about it.
And on the altar platform, the High Priest of Thousand Shadows slowly walked out. He was dressed in a purple-gold robe, a golden-yellow jade crown on his head, a purple-gold jade pendant, a purple-gold mask on his face, a purple-gold eight-treasure jewel around his neck, a colorful glazed jade dragon scepter, and a purple-gold jade boot all over his body, all showing his noble status.
With the introduction of the high priest, the crowd remained very solemn in a tacit understanding. Without him, the place of the high priest, the place of the glory of the clouds.
The high priest held the scepter in his right hand and made an arc in the direction of the people. Suddenly, the soft white light swayed throughout the ring. Everyone felt that their hearts were quiet and comfortable.
"I announce that the ceremony of worshipping the heavens has officially begun. Playing music!"
Immediately around the altar there were all kinds of musical instruments. Wang Mingxiu, wearing a liΓΊ crown and a huΔ« robe, walked out of the altar and came to the high priest with the support of Jun Mingyao, the head of the Jun family, and Wang Mingshan, the head of the Wang family.
"The first item is ancestor worship. The first step is to worship the ancestors. Ancestral song. β
Wang Mingshan led Wang Mingxiu to the incense platform hand in hand, cleaned his hands with holy water, lit the incense and handed it to her, the two of them paid homage to the incense platform side by side, and when it was over, the two returned.
"The first item is ancestor worship. The second step is to worship the ancestors. β
This time, Jun Mingyao held hands and led Wang Mingxiu to sacrifice his ancestors. After the visit, the two returned.
"The first item is ancestor worship. Step 3: Prayer. β
Jun Mingyao and Wang Mingshan held the jade book of prayers, and before going to the incense platform, they opened the jade book, and a "Qi" sounded, and the two of them read the text at the same time:
"On the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth month of the 1,000,000 year of the Qingyun calendar, the wife (sister) of the contemporary head of the monarch (king) family is on the occasion of the 39th birthday, and respects the ancestors and ancestors:
It is Chongyang, the sun is in the sky, the wind and rain are smooth, and the family and people are prosperous. The younger generation of the clumsy queen is bright and reasonable, virtuous and virtuous, conscientious and conscientious in housekeeping, and seeking the law of heaven is like walking on thin ice. I remember that the ancestors started a business in troubled times, and the blessings prospered in the descendants, and the descendants should uphold the ancestral aspirations, not arrogant or humble, and continue to prosper, and ......
The younger generation of the humble queen Mingxiu comforted my ancestors, forever and forever. Husband is happy and happy, watch the event together!"
The two of them recited the prayer for about half an hour, and when they were finished, they closed the jade book and returned it at the same time.
After placing the jade book, Wang Mingxiu, Jun Mingyao, and Wang Mingshan stepped forward again, knelt three times and bowed nine times, and worshiped the ancestors.
"The second item is to worship the heavens. Heaven is happy"
After speaking, the three of them followed the previous ritual process, facing the north to worship the heavens, praying and ......
"The third item is to pray to heaven. Stand up. β
After saying that, a square platform rises in the center of the altar. The people of the Jun and Wang families sitting below stepped on the altar, while the five brothers and sisters of Jun Zhengren, Wang Zhenyu, continued to step forward and stood around Fang Yutai.
Wang Mingxiu came to the front of the white jade square platform with the support of the two, slowly stepped on the nine steps, walked up the square jade platform, and lay on it lightly. Not long after, the jade platform bloomed, and Wang Mingxiu suddenly suspended about a foot above the jade platform.
Jun Mingyao and Wang Mingshan stood opposite each other on both sides of the jade platform.
"Six instruments, please. β
Suddenly, there were people from the Jun family who held the trays of the six utensils in their hands, and slowly walked to the six Jun Zhengren and stood in front of them.
"Rites are in all directions. β
"Salute the sky with the sky. β
Jun Xiaolan stepped forward, picked up Baoyu Cangbi, raised her head, bowed to the sky, took it back, and placed Cangbi on the jade platform, under her mother's abdomen.
"Bow to Huang Cong. β
Jun Zhengren also picked up Baoyu Huang Cong, bowed to the ground, and placed the jade on his mother's abdomen.
"Honor the East with Qing Gui. β
Wang Zhenyu picked up Baoyu Qinggui to worship the East, and then placed it on the left side of Mingxiu.
"Honor the South with Chizhang. β
Jun Zhenghao picked up Baoyu Chizhang to worship the south, and then placed it in front of his mother's head.
"Bow to the West with white amber. β
Jun Zhengyou holds the treasure jade white amber to worship the west and places it on the right side of his mother.
"Honor the north with Xuanhuang. β
Junzheng's family held Baoyu Xuanhuang to worship the north and placed it in front of his mother's feet.
After placing it, the High Priest of the Thousand Shadows held the scepter in his hand, and when he came to the jade platform, he held the scepter in his hand towards the sky.
"Heaven. β
After speaking, everyone in the altar square sat down cross-legged, waiting for the next bath of holy light. At this time, the scepter in the high priest's hand was full of colorful brilliance, reaching straight to the sky. Suddenly, the holy light in the sky swayed, colorful clouds filled the sky, dragons and phoenixes danced, hundreds of beasts flew loudly, fairy flowers bloomed, strange fragrances burst, the weather was thousands, and it was impossible to say.
"Qi", the high priest shouted, and the jade crown bloomed brightly, shining directly on the white jade platform. And the six treasures and jades on the jade platform were also brilliant, and turned into a chaotic color that flooded the entire jade platform, and others could no longer see Wang Mingxiu's figure at all.
After a while, the sky presented the image of a lady flying into the sky, and gradually, a peerless beauty wearing a xia veil, long streamers, bright eyes and bright teeth sat on the golden lotus, bathed in the holy light, and smiled.
"Mother finally took advantage of the Nine Heavens to step into the third step of the Dharma Realm at the age of a thousand years and condense the Dharma Body. The consummation of Sanjiu is about to be completed, but unfortunately, if it is not for the full moon, it must be reduced, and the more it is reduced, the more it can be consummated. Selling half of the interests of more than one Ping County to the sky shows the meaning of loss and perfection, it is really painful!" Jun Zhengjia muttered.
"Quiet, you talk a lot. Taking advantage of the baptism of my mother's holy light, the tide of spiritual power in heaven and earth appeared, grasp these few days for me, absorb cultivation fiercely, and ask the heavens for some money. Jun Zhenghao said softly.
Under the altar, Xiaoyu and Yuan Zhisheng sat on the edge of the altar, not far from everyone on the stage.
The spectacular scene had already violently shook the light rain, making him have no time to care, which was enough to offset the previous boring ancestor worship to the sky.
However, when the tide of spiritual power appeared, for some reason, Xiaoyu suddenly felt like a gluttonous glutton, struggling to eat. This simply broke the iron rule of the cultivation realm that it was impossible to absorb spiritual power in the Quenching Body Realm.
However, after eating a lot of spiritual power, Xiaoyu gradually felt that her hunger was getting stronger and stronger, and she wanted to swallow all the stinky tofu in the county.
As the hunger became stronger and stronger, Xiaoyu couldn't help it anymore and said loudly: "Dad, I'm hungry." β
Needle drops can be heard.
Everyone on the field looked sideways, trying to find the person who spoke up. And when he saw Xiaoyu, who was still a child, he invariably showed a look of surprise.
Everyone suddenly felt a sense of sufficiency in the tide of spiritual power, and a child would still be hungry, pretend. It won't be the adults on the side who find another way, trying to attract the attention of the Jun family and share a little benefit.
Feeling the disdainful gaze of everyone, Yuan Zhisheng was numb, and he was really accustomed to the scene of Xiaoyu 'mouthing golden sentences'.
"It's in the bag, you can eat it yourself, remember to eat it dry and wipe it clean, don't throw things away. Yuan Zhisheng wiped the ring in his hand, and suddenly a small bag of stinky tofu suddenly appeared in the square, not looking at the eyes of everyone in the square, closing his eyes and cultivating.
