CHAPTER XXV
"What do you think of them?"
Shouxu sits on the high seat of the main hall, wears a golden hairpin, wears golden cloud shoes on his feet, wears a big red robe, and the golden silk and silver thread auspicious clouds and cranes are embroidered on it, showing solemnity in the gorgeousness.
"Master, these three junior disciples are all talented and intelligent people, they speak little day and night, they are steady, Xingchen is compassionate, and they always think about others, this moment is ......!"
Shouxu asked, "If you have anything, just say it!"
"Instant Moon is the youngest, and it is also the most slippery one, if you want to say that the slippery head, it is better to say that it is more playful, as he said, his growth environment has created his slippery character, but his temperament is not bad, I believe that even if he gets deeper and deeper, he will not do anything too out of the ordinary, but it doesn't hurt. I'll guide them well. ”
Shouxu nodded: "It doesn't matter if they are the saviors mentioned in the prophecy, but after all, they are already my disciples, and they should be taught well." ”
Yang Yu replied, "Yes, Master." ”
"Go and call them! ”
"Yes, I'll go and call them. Yang Yu turned around and stepped out of the main hall and walked towards the residence of the three of Sun, Moon and Star.
Coming to the Taizhen Hall on the halfway of the castle tower again, it was already crowded with people.
In front of the hall, there is a long desk, on which are placed all kinds of Taoist ritual utensils and tributes.
The incense burner in front of the temple was filled with three wrist-thick red incense sticks.
Looking down at the void, the three of them were carrying the sun, moon and stars, followed by several accompanying disciples, and there were dozens of steps left to the ground from Guangping.
"It's coming. ”
"Is that just the three of them?"
"It's them, it's no different!"
"Can it be the same? Yijiazi once in the canon, today for the three of them to make an exception, is to let the whole world know that they have entered our Baixian Mountain. ”
The three of Sun, Moon and Star walked all the way in simple yellow ring clothes, looking left and right, and both sides of the road were already crowded with people, all looking at them curiously.
"Standing in front of the stage are the ten elders who are teaching in the Taizhen Palace, all of whom are uncles of the 'Shou' generation, in order: 'Huan', 'Li', 'Gong', 'Qin', 'Jin', 'Yi', 'Jie', 'Chuan', 'Yu', and 'Jing'," Yang Yu explained.
I saw ten elders standing in front of the offering table in yellow robes like Shouxu, waiting for their arrival.
Bai Xianyue asked curiously, "Senior brother, the costumes of the ten elders are all the same? ”
"The ten elders are of the same age as the master, and they are all highly respected and enlightened masters, and they are also wearing the same robes embroidered with various patterns as the master, except for the purple vestments of the master and uncle, the colors of the other uncles' robes are arbitrary, and the ten elders just want to distinguish them, so they chose the same patterns and colors. ”
Bai Xianyue: "Senior brother, the three of us didn't say that we wanted to become monks! Why do we still have to wear this ring robe? ”
Yang Yu said with a smile: "Except for the enlightened people of the uncle's generation who are qualified to wear the magic robes embroidered with patterns, you are all wearing the precept clothes of ordinary disciples, so there are no patterns. Although you are not a monk, today is a great day for you to be ordained, and everything is handled according to the etiquette of a monk. ”
Bai Xianyue: "Do others have to do the same when they are canonized?"
Yang Yu nodded and said: "Yes, wearing a magic robe to receive the canon, it can be regarded as entering the White Immortal Mountain, and it is also informing the world that the White Immortal Mountain has accepted you as a disciple." ”
Bai Xianyue: "Okay!"
At this time, except for Yang Yu, all the other disciples who followed Shouxu walked away.
Shouxu led the three of Sun, Moon and Star and Yang Yu to Guangping, bypassed Juding, and walked to the front of the stage.
I saw Shouzhen and Shouqing and all the other leaders walking out of the main hall together.
"The head of the family and the first uncle have arrived, and even the master and uncle of Shouqing have arrived, it seems that this canonization ceremony has no moisture at all!"
"Of course, although there are only three of them, it is no different from the canonization ceremony of the Jiazi once. ”
"Hey, who's going to get a good name?"
"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense. ”
"Am I wrong? They must have special treatment when they enter the mountain gate like this. ”
"Don't shut up yet, be careful, and when Master finds out, he will punish you to face the wall. ”
"Got it......"
"The canonization begins......" I heard a Taoist boy beside the elder shout. "The canonized disciples knelt down and were baptized. ”
When they came, Yang Yu had already made it clear what they needed to do, and the three of them only needed to do what Dao Tong shouted.
The three of them knelt in front of the desk.
Among the ten elders, Shouhuan walked out, stood in front of the offering table, picked up a large bundle of red incense, pinched the tip of the sword, the incense head ignited a fire, Shouhuan waved his hand again, the open flame was extinguished, the incense head was already burning golden, and the cigarette was rolling up, picked up a willow branch, dipped it in a copper basin in front of the desk, and shook it lightly on everyone's head, and the dew was sprinkled on the three people, which meant bathing and cleaning, and then distributed the incense in his hand to the three of Sun, Moon and Star.
The Taoist boy shouted loudly: "Worship heaven and earth, it is to enter the Taoist ...... rightly"
Taoist, enter the Taoist door, heaven and earth are the teacher, only heaven and earth are the real master, although entering the mountain gate needs to devote yourself to the master, strictly speaking, the master is just a guide.
The sun and moon stars held a handful of lit red incense in their hands, raised it above their heads, turned around and knelt down, saluted the heavens and the earth three times, and then got up and took out three sticks and placed them on the incense burner.
Dao Tong: "Worship the gods, serve the ancestors, and enter the teacher's door with the ......"
The gods are the greatest under the heavens and the earth, and they worship the heavens and the earth as teachers, and they must always respect the gods. The ancestor refers to the ancestors of Baixian Mountain, the name is under the statement, the world's Taoists are different, and the worship here is to recognize the teacher, that is, to recognize the Baixian Mountain.
Under the guidance of the elders, the three of them walked into the Taizhen Temple, which was the first time that the three of them entered the hall, and the furnishings in the hall were similar to those of ordinary Taoist temples. The space is huge, the statue of the Emperor Zhenwu in the middle is majestic and solemn, and the incense burner table in front of the statue is complete.
The three of them knelt down on the futon in front of the desk, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and offered three red incense sticks.
Dao Tong: "Respect the elder. ”
When you enter the mountain gate, you need to recognize the elders in the door. The three of Sun, Moon and Star and their direct apprenticeship were replaced by other disciples screened from Sanqing Mountain, who had not yet apprenticed at this time.
The three of them walked out of the main hall, knelt down in front of the heads and Shouqing who were already sitting on the left side, and after bowing three times and bowing nine times, they handed three incense sticks to each of the heads and Shouqing.
Shouqing and the other first seat took the red incense and walked to the desk and held it high.
Shouzhen said: "Today, day and night, Shen Xingchen and Bai Xianyue are three people, devote themselves to my Baixian Mountain Gate, and the master will lead them, walk the avenue of heaven and earth, and take the right path of the world." ”
The first one bowed three times and inserted red incense into the incense burner.
Dao Tong shouted again: "Respect the teacher and respect ......"
If it is in other canonization ceremonies, because there is no apprenticeship, there is no such link. However, the three of them, the sun, moon and stars, as well as the apprentice and the master, were present, so they saluted together.
The three of them walked to Shouxu, who was already sitting on the left, and knelt down, and bowed three times and nine times.
Shouxu took three red incense sticks from each of the three people, walked to the desk and held it high to the sky: "Disciple Baixian Mountain Gate Shouxu, stationed in Xieling Peak, Heaven and Earth Mingjian, today, the three of the sun, moon and star cast into the Baixian Mountain Gate, into my Xieling Peak, the disciple will teach carefully and guide the right way." After three prostrations, Shouxu inserted the three red incense sticks in his hand into the incense burner.
Dao Tong: "Respect the teacher......"
Although there is a master in front, the disciples of Baixian Mountain have always needed to come to the Taizhen Hall for morning classes, and the ten elders are the head teachers.
The three of them walked to the ten elders and knelt down, and after bowing three times and bowing nine times, they handed out one red incense stick to each of the elders in their hands, keeping them in a kneeling position.
The ten elders took the red incense, bowed to the heavens and the earth, and the elders led by him stepped forward and said: "Accept the scriptures, and be the three disciples of the three masters who have been canonized, and they have made meritorious contributions, and the heavens are famous. The fame is not established, the Dafa is lightly accepted, the three officials are obsessed, and the life and death are bitter to the ......" to insert red incense into the incense burner.
At this time, Bai Xianyue was already looking around a little impatiently.
Shen Xingchen touched him with his arm, suggesting that he should not move.
After a while, a group of Taoist priests dressed in precepts surrounded the three of them and recited the scriptures: "Tianzun preaches the scriptures and teachings, leads to the floating life, cultivates diligently and does nothing, realizes the truth and is self-contained, is not lost or desolate, has no self and no name, recites the blessings of sin, and clears the heart ten thousand times." Taiyi Saves Suffering Tianzun ......"
Dao Tong: "Respect the ...... of incense"
Bai Xianyue muttered, "It's finally over...... That's not right, what about the 36 calls? It's okay, it saves trouble......
"Hi...... That's it, there is no ...... in the thirty-six calls"
"It seems like it's just a cutscene. ”
"Hey, I don't look at it, it's rare to receive a canon, and the etiquette is not all ......"
A child-like Dao boy asked the senior brother who was higher than the direct next to him: "Senior brother, what is the matter of thirty-six links?"
The senior brother replied: "That is, bow to the four directions nine times, burn incense once in each direction, and worship one god......
"Do I need my disciples to do this every time I receive a canonization?"
"Basically, without exception, except for those of us who were led directly by the master ......"
"Then it seems that their canonization is not particularly solemn!"
Senior Brother smiled: "I'm afraid...... Today we will encounter a rare scene in Baixian Mountain in a hundred years. ”
"What kind of sight?"
The senior brother smiled but did not answer.
After the three people paid homage, it seemed to mean that the ceremony was over, and the people present had begun to evacuate one after another.
"Look. At this time, a sharp-eyed disciple noticed that Shouzhen had somehow appeared in his hand with a sword with white light.
"What are you doing with the Bai Ying Sword?"
"Isn't this canonization all over?"
"This Bai Ying sword is the sword of the master, it's rare to see it once!"
But seeing Shouzhen nodding to the other first juniors, all the heads present also looked back and stood behind Shouzhen.
Shou Zhenping raised the white sword in front of his chest, and then the tip of the sword stretched upward, and a white light rose into the sky, straight through the sky.
"What is Uncle Shi going to do?"
"Shut up and take a good look. ”
Shouzhen said in a loud voice: "Up to the Nine Heavens, down to the Nine Shadows, and ...... with the White Immortal Mountain"
As Shou Zhen chanted aloud, the airflow of the entire Baixian Mountain region rotated, as if it was being filled with power. The earth began to tremble slightly.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this, and the people who had just left the scene also looked back.
There was a loud bang......
Ninety peaks in addition to the nine main peaks burst out at the same time with a white light that shot straight into the sky......
At this time, under the illumination of white light, Baixian Mountain was very dazzling, and an invisible huge force enveloped Baixian Mountain, circulating around the entire mountain area......
Shouzhen shouted: "Join the ......"
However, he saw that the original straight light of the ten peaks around each main peak slowly converged towards the sky above the main peak that they were guarding.
Just as every ten rays of light converge a little, the rays no longer shoot infinitely, but stop at the convergence point, as if these ten rays of light are gathering energy.
Shouzhen: "......"
There was a loud bang, and the moment the earth shook, the nine main peaks burst out with a huge light at the same time, and each light shot through the ten auxiliary mountains and shot out of the pillar of light convergence point straight into the sky.
This time, without waiting for Shouzhen's action, the giant pillars of light on the other eight main peaks were slowly suppressed to the top of the Heavenly Shou Peak, and when the eight pillars of light converged a little, Shouzhen flew up and went straight into the pillar of light on the top of the Heavenly Shou Peak.
I saw a giant pillar of light flickering with waves, and Shouzhen could faintly see a human figure within it.....
"This ...... Is this a heavenly curse?"
"It should be ......"
"Isn't this heavenly punishment a killing array?"
"I don't know what Uncle Shi is going to do. ”
"Do you need this for a canonization ceremony?"
"I haven't seen it even ......"
"Don't talk about you, I've been here for more than forty years, and it's the first time I've seen Uncle Shi start a battle......"
As the light above the peaks gradually dissipated, the pillars of light above the Castle Guard gradually became larger and thicker, and then the light converged, leaving only one pillar of light, as if the sword in Shouzhen's hand had absorbed the light of the other peaks.
The light that burst out of the castle tower retracted like a whale sucking water, and the entire sky was pitch black for a moment, and then slowly spread and grew larger from a small point of light, conjuring up a giant sword, which was dozens of zhang long...... The white glow of the greatsword could be seen even hundreds of miles away......
At this time, Shouzhen could no longer hold it with his hands, but pinched the trick with both hands, and used his divine power to control the giant sword in front of him.
"Rise ......" Shouzhen pointed at the sword, and the giant sword rushed away in response, and Shouzhen followed.
"What is Uncle Shi going to do?"
"I don't know!"
Shouzhen quickly overtook the giant sword, and the giant sword suddenly turned its head down......
"No......"
"What the hell is Uncle Shi doing?"
"Run!"
"When this sword falls, the whole mountain will be razed to the ground, and it will run away?"
