Chapter 378: Transcendent Rites
Xuan Zhen nodded and looked not far away.
I saw that the child ran to the lake and played with the green snake again.
Kneading, tearing, wrestling!
The green snake, which was already dying, had its head drooping and seemed to have no life.
Chongning and the innkeeper, after listening to Xuan Zhen's explanation, didn't step forward to stop them, just looked at them like this.
After a quarter of an hour, the child, perhaps having had enough, threw himself forward and ran back.
Squeak, squeak, squeak.
He was muttering something that he couldn't hear at all.
The boss should have understood and said, "If you're sleepy, go to sleep."
After saying that, the child ran to the front desk of the hotel.
Chongning looked at the lake, and the green snake was thrown into the grass.
The grass was damp and cold, with dew and moisture.
The green snake lay inside, motionless, and the eyes of the triangular head were dull and dull, as if dead.
"Is the snake dead?"
The innkeeper looked over there and asked in a low voice.
Hyun Jin walked over, touched it with a small branch, and pulled it a few times.
The green snake did not move at all, it was already stiff.
He shook his head and sighed, "Failed."
Apparently, the green snake died.
The snake python's boy pass and the yellow skin's request for sealing are relatively similar.
If the boy can't pass it, the hundreds of years of Taoism will be completely abolished.
The weasel is okay, after all, it can leave a small life.
This snake python was miserable, failed to pass the level, and died directly.
The innkeeper felt a little guilty and said, "Daoist, what can I do for it?"
Chongning was also surprised, this boss looked rough on the outside, but he was quite delicate on the inside.
The boss continued, "This green snake has been cultivating for a hundred years, and it can be regarded as half an immortal. I didn't expect my son to die in this wilderness."
Xuan Zhen waved his hand and said, "It's all fate, and it has nothing to do with your son. It's just that it's shallow in luck and lack of luck."
The boss said, "I'm a little reluctant to go, can the Taoist do a ritual for it, can it be excessive?"
"Don't worry, I'll pay for the expenses and the incense money." z.br>
Chongning was stunned and said, "Do you attach so much importance to it?"
The boss sighed and said, "That baby is actually not my own son, he is the child of my comrade-in-arms."
"Jun'er, it's been going wrong, just after one year old, her mother died of illness, and when she was two years old, she had a big fever and almost passed."
"On his third birthday, his dad was in a car accident and left."
"The little baby is lonely, quite pitiful, so I took it."
"Just a few years after I was stable, I accidentally ingested oxalic acid and burned my throat."
"Many people say he's a scourge, but in my eyes, he's always a baby."
From here, you can see the front desk of the inn.
Chongning looked back, and the child was lying on the small wooden bed next to the front desk, obediently asleep.
The boss also turned his head and said, "This happened again tonight, I'm afraid that it will implicate his future fate, and I will ask the Taoist chief to explain it."
In fact, as Xuan Zhen said, the child pass of the snake python, whether it is life or death, has little to do with children.
However, he looked at the innkeeper's eyes, and if he refused, he couldn't bear it.
So, Xuan Zhen said, "Then let's do a simple ritual for this green snake, and then surpass the soul of the dead and live in bliss as soon as possible."
Some small bosses in the northwest are extremely interested in feng shui numerology.
The innkeeper was very happy when he saw Xuan Zhen agree, "Then it will be bothering the master."
At this time, he became much more respectful of Xuan Zhen's title.
Xuan Zhen answered and said, "Do you have yellow paper, millet, pen and ink here?"
"Yes, yes. I'll get it now
。」
In remote areas, yellow paper is burned every New Year's festival to worship ancestral gods.
Generally in my hometown, I usually stock up on some spares.
Soon, the innkeeper brought yellow paper, ink, and millet.
Hyun Jin carried an old bucket, filled it with water, and poured millet into it.
He walked up to the green snake and said, "Chongning, you put ink on the snake."
Chongning was stunned, "Me?"
Xuan Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, I'm busy here, and I can't spare my hands."
I saw that he was holding the yellow paper in both hands, constantly kneading it.
A flat stack of yellow paper, unfolded layer by layer, looks like a blooming coptis flower from a distance.
Xuan Zhen's technique is fast, and his hands are like seals, which are extremely gorgeous.
Chongning could only bite the bullet and walked over.
The green snake on the ground was already stiff.
He picked up the twig on the ground and tapped it a few times, but it didn't have the slightest life, like a rubber toy.
The green snakes coiled together and curled into a ball.
Chongning was naturally afraid of snakes, and he would get pimples all over his body when he saw it.
He gritted his teeth and slowly approached, flipping the snake over to the front.
Although the green snake was dead, it was cold, and Chongning couldn't help but tremble all over when he touched it.
After a while, he opened the bottle of ink, dipped some of the twigs and leaves in it, and gently applied it to the snake.
The whole process was very cautious, and it took about ten minutes, and the original blue snake body had become as black as charcoal.
The yellow paper on Xuanzhen's side was also done, and stacks of golden paper flowers were placed by the lake in turn.
"Okay, right?"
He walked over, glanced at the green snake at his feet, then squatted down and picked it up with his bare hands.
When Chongning saw it, he felt a chill in his heart.
Xuan Zhen took the green snake and came to the lake, preparing to do things and carry out excess.
The seven stacks of yellow paper gold flowers seem to be placed in what direction, which is extremely exquisite.
At the same time, in the center of the yellow paper golden flower, he also built a small pyre with pine branches.
These firewood piles are all dry firewood and dead wood.
In addition, the most superficial pine branches are all flammable.
Xuan Zhen carried the green snake and put it directly on the top of the pyre.
Chongning was stunned and said, "Are you going to burn it?"
Xuan Zhen tilted his head, frowned slightly, and said, "Yes, otherwise? The incineration is excessive, and the specifications are very high."
Chongning didn't understand, so he answered and said, "Oh, okay, you can get it."
As he spoke, he took a few steps back, just watching from the sidelines.
After Xuan Zhen put the green snake away, he bit his fingertips.
A stream of blood dripped from the fingertips.
A few drops of blood landed right on the forehead of the green snake.
The pitch-black green snake, with a touch of bright red on its forehead, looks a little scary from a distance.
Hyun Jin closed his eyes and whispered some secret mantra in his mouth.
The sound is slow and urgent, and the tone is extremely subtle.
After reciting the mantra, he made a few more Dharma Seal Techniques.
The gestures of flying in the air are dazzling.
After this set of professional operations, the innkeeper over there was already convinced of Xuan Zhen's law.
Immediately after, Xuan Zhen stepped forward and moved his sword fingers.
A burst of fire erupted.
The fire flickered, and the light went out.
With a bang, the small pyre was instantly ignited.
Suddenly, next to the pitch-black wild lake, the fire was blazing and the flames were surging.
Cracking sound!
Pine branches and dry firewood make a constant sound, like popping beans.
The green snake in the center also burned together.
Maybe it's because the surface is coated with ink, the burning of the green snake,
Extremely intense!
There seems to be no difference between the snake body and the surrounding pine branches.
In the blink of an eye, most of the effort has been burned.
The pitch-black body became a little red under the burning fire.
From a distance, it looks a bit like red-hot steel, red and bright!
The innkeeper was over there, and when he saw the green snake being burned, he quickly lowered his head, folded his hands, and kept chanting Amitabha.
Chongning looked at this scene and felt a little funny.
Xuanzhen transcendence, that is pure Taoist method.
In the mouth of the innkeeper, it is the Buddha's name.
There is a world of difference between the two, and in the weird scene, it seems a little funny.
However, look at the innkeeper's pious face.
Chongning didn't say anything, just looked at the flames over there.
Xuanzhen's ritual was not over, and he was still pacing back and forth beside the fire.
While exaggerating his steps, he held a wooden stick in his hand, using it as a wooden sword, and slashed at the night sky with great care.
After about a quarter of an hour, Xuan Zhen's movements stopped.
He stood by the fire, staring at the flames inside.
The pine branches and dry wood have been burned out.
The torso of the green snake in the center has long been burned into black charcoal.
Chongning also looked over, and when he got closer, the snake body could no longer be distinguished, and he could only see a black mass.
Seeing that the fire had decreased, the innkeeper also came over and asked, "Dao Chief, how is it?" Is the excess complete?"
Xuan Zhen responded and said, "It's done, this green snake will be born with bliss early and reincarnate."
The innkeeper let out a long sigh of relief, and a big stone in his heart was put down.
"Green Snake Immortal, don't blame me, I've really offended."
As he spoke, he knelt down directly at the pile of firewood and kowtowed a few times very respectfully.
Chongning couldn't stand it anymore, so he hurriedly went up and helped him up.
"Oops."
The innkeeper's feet sank, as if there were some weeds.
As he supported him, he leaned over and fell towards the fire in front of him.
The fire in front of it has not yet been extinguished, and it is terrible to fall on it like this.
Chongning was also taken aback, his strength was not very great.
The innkeeper is a big man, and he really can't hold it up if he falls like this.
Xuan Zhen's hands and eyes were quick, and he instantly realized that something was wrong.
His figure moved, and he pounced directly with an arrow step.
At the same time, with a movement of his big hand, he grabbed the innkeeper and Chongning next to him.
"Give it to me!"
With a loud roar, Xuan Zhen was extremely powerful, pulling the two of them back so hard.
Chongning only felt that a powerful force appeared from behind.
His whole body, along with the innkeeper next to him, flew straight backwards!
Bang bang bang!
Still, the innkeeper came across the match.
The firewood fell to the ground in an instant, and the scattered wooden branches were scattered on the edge of the lake, which was extremely messy.
Ding Ding Ding!
A strange thing suddenly came out of the fire, and the round thing rolled out!
"Huh? What's that?" Chongning's sharp eyes instantly saw that thing.
