Chapter 350 The Gods of the Legal Examination
Zhang Yushan introduced Zhang Zhiwei one by one.
Zhao Ruhun of the Qingwei faction is a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown, wearing a purple robe, and a somewhat elegant face.
As for Maoshan's Wei article, although there is an article in the name, it has nothing to do with Wenya, but is tall, with a long beard hanging straight to his chest, thick eyebrows like ink, and a mighty spirit, if he wasn't wearing a Taoist robe, Zhang Zhiwei would still think he was a martial artist.
Speaking of which, the surname Wei is also a big surname in Maoshan, and the Qing Sect on Maoshan originated from Wei Huacun, the king of Zixu Yuanjun.
Wei Huacun was originally a person in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and his father Wei Shu even worshiped Situ during the Jin Dynasty, which can be described as a high authority, logically speaking, she should be a pampered eldest lady, but she is not interested in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, only loves the art of Huang Lao, and was given the law by the gods after the catastrophe, once had an epiphany, entered the Tao successfully, served as a celestial priest wine, and then created a vein of Maoshan Shangqing, authored "Shangqing Sutra" and "Huang Ting Sutra".
At the same time, she is also known as the four fairies with Shouxian Niangniang Magu, He Xiangu, and Mazu, among them, Magu is Wei Huacun's maid, and later the flower goddess Nuyi, who is very strong in incense, is her disciple.
Perhaps it was Wei Huacun himself who was coincidentally passed on by the immortals, so compared with the Heavenly Master's Mansion established by the Ancestor Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, and the Lingbao School established by the Heavenly Master Ge Xuan, the Maoshan Shangqing lineage she founded was more gentle to the outside world.
In other words, he is strict with himself, lenient with others, and very strict with himself, but he is not so strict with outsiders, such as preaching and teaching, which also makes some Taoism in Maoshan spread widely, so that there are many wild Maoshan mountains on the rivers and lakes.
When these wild Maoshan mountains brought a lot of positive images to Maoshan, they also brought a lot of negative images, so although the Heavenly Master's Mansion was in charge of the Three Mountains Fu, in terms of fame, Maoshan's reputation was even greater than that of Longhu Mountain.
Wei Wenwen and Zhang Zhiwei both belong to the three sects of Fu Zheng, although they were a little surprised that Zhang Zhiwei had to fight with himself and other old-timers for legal positions at a young age, but he still hugged his hands as an elder and smiled:
"Zhiwei Master and nephew, I have heard it for a long time, they all say that your cultivation in Dangong is profound, and even surpasses some old-timers who have been famous for a long time, but I didn't expect that it is not bad in Fu Gong!"
"I thought that Zheng Zibu in the door was going to be promoted to the three-grade law urn at a young age, which was already considered a demon, but I didn't expect you to be even more powerful, just promoted to the three-grade law jar, and you are going to come to receive the three-grade law job, compared with you, we old guys are really ashamed of ourselves!"
"The seniors praised it falsely, this is all taught by the masters and uncles!"
Zhang Zhiwei also smiled and politely said a few words, as for the White Jade Palace of Shenxiao Sect, it seems that the person is like him, and he is the stubborn bull-nosed old Taoist image in the story, and he has never spoken from beginning to end.
Zhang Zhiwei didn't pay attention to him, he didn't care about outsiders, if he greeted politely, he would naturally respond politely, if you put on a score, then I won't be able to see you.
Afterwards, everyone continued to watch the ceremony.
The conferral conference is still continuing, and the last Taoist priest who was promoted to the third grade of the Dharma urn is Zheng Zibu, and after the fourth grade is promoted to the third grade, it is the ceremony of the third grade to the second grade.
The third-grade Shangqing Five Thunder Sutra is already considered a high-grade Dharma urn, and the second-grade Shangqing Three-Hole Sutra is the highest Dharma urn under the one-grade Dharma Urn of the exclusive Heavenly Master, representing the apex of the Dharma Urn.
The person who gave this Dharma Urn is an absolute Dao Gate great merit, and when it comes to the second grade of the Dharma Urn, it represents that the inner urn of the Fu Gong has reached its peak, and then, either painstakingly study the means of the outer urn, or study the altar ritual Jiao, or work the Dharma position.
In short, there are a lot of things involved in the talisman, although the second-grade Dharma urn is the apex, but between the apex and the apex, because of the external means, the Jiao method, and the difference in the legal position, its strength may also be very different.
It's like the current Zhang Zhiwei and Zheng Zibu, although they are both three-grade magic pots, but if they don't use other means, only talking about the talismans, Zhang Zhiwei can't compare to Zheng Zibu if he pats the horse, because he only has an inner basket, and most of the external means that he can only use are used to assist.
Compared with the three-grade Dharma urn, the ceremony of the second-grade Dharma urn is much more complicated, but at the same time, there are many fewer participants, just a white-haired lame old Taoist priest.
According to Ge Wen's introduction, this person was originally a genius of the Lingbao Sect, proficient in Qimen Dunjia, but due to his excessive obsession with mathematics in the early years, he leaked a lot of heavenly opportunities, and was condemned by God.
After repentance, he was no longer obsessed with the number of arts, and began to devote himself to practicing the talismans, and finally today, he obtained the second-grade Shangqing Three Caves Sutra.
Abandon the number of spells, ask for talismans, and even be able to win the second-grade spell, this old-timer is also a person of great perseverance...... Zhang Zhiwei said in his heart.
In fact, with his ability, he could heal the high merits of this Lingbao Sect, but he had no relatives and no reason with the other party, so it was naturally impossible for him to rush to help.
In this regard, Gwen did not mention it, everyone is a measured person.
After the completion of the promotion ceremony of the second grade of the Dharma urn, it is the conferral of the law, and the people who have been waiting for a long time will go on the stage again.
The ceremony began at the beginning of the ceremony, and now the sky has become dark, Zhang Yi waved the scepter, the Taoist drum sounded, and the torches set up in the four corners of the altar were lit at the same time.
For a while, the fire was soaring, and the altar was even brighter.
Zhang Yi, the host of the ceremony, waved his hand, and the Taoist priest who wanted to receive the Dharma came out from the east and west sides, came to the altar, and stood in front of Zhang Yi.
Immediately followed by a gong, on the altar, Zhang Yi was already holding a staff, stepping on Yu, and chanting in his mouth:
"Heaven and earth are natural, the filth is scattered, the cave is mysterious, and the sun is too yuan. The eight directions are mighty, so that I naturally ......"
This is the Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra, used to repel evil and eliminate filth, clean the altar, in order to wait for the gods to descend, after reciting the Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra, Zhang Yi began to chant loudly "Lei Zu Bao", the Arctic Exorcism Institute belongs to the Thunder Ministry, to receive its legal duties, naturally have to recite the corresponding incantation.
"Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Mansion, the supreme Yuqing King...... The five thunders of the general division, the operation of the Three Realms, the father of the group, and the master of all souls. Great Sage and Great Mercy, the Emperor and the ......"
Between the recitations of the mantra, the yin wind came from nowhere, the wind on the altar was loud, the banners were flying and turning, the flags were swaggering, and the flames of incense and candles were shaking, as if the gods from all walks of life were invited to descend to the altar.
At the same time, above the cloudless night sky, there were ripples like a lake, forming clouds, which were shallow at first, but became dense at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming thick dark clouds that obscured the moon.
The Taoist priests below all exclaimed when they saw this scene, even Zhang Zhiwei was a little smacked, the heavens and the earth changed color, this specification is a bit big, I don't know which of the gods in charge of the assessment is one of the Dharma lineages?
In fact, not only him, Zhang Yushan, Zhao Ruhuns, Bai Yugong and others are also wondering, they have all participated in the legal examination more than once, and the movements in the past are not so evil, this yin wind gusts, the twilight clouds are low, which is like a god descending, but it is like a hundred ghosts walking at night, and the yin soldiers are borrowing.
On the altar platform, the altar ritual has reached the most critical time to "welcome the gods", Zhang Yi is still chanting the gods, and at the same time, Qi Xi is rolling behind him, and a domineering figure appears.
With a blue face, red beard and red hair, golden armor and yellow robes, he looks like a bull fighting yaksha, wearing gold armor and holding a sword of fine light.
It is Zhang Yi's body protector general Yellow Robe Monster, that is, the head of the White Tiger Seven Stars in the Thirty-six Constellations, Kui Wood Wolf Star Jun.
It stood behind Zhang Yi, floating in the light smoke, its body was between the virtual and the real, the yellow robe hunting, and the whole body was hazy.
The protector god will appear, this is the altar protector, with the altar protector, to ensure that there will be no accidents on the ritual, Zhang Yi picked up a jade book from the altar.
This jade book is divided into twenty-four Jane, Jane and Jane are connected by gold threads, each piece of jade book is cut and polished by secret techniques, and the fonts inside are all cloud seals, clouds and mist are swirling, slowly circulating.
This jade book is called "Temple of Heaven Jade Grid", which is written by a great heavenly master of Longhu Mountain in the name of the Taoist sage Lao Tzu, which records the regulations of various legal duties, as well as how much merit can be obtained by doing things, etc., according to the eight characters of the birthday, the natal heavenly soldiers are allocated as a protective guard......
It is equivalent to the code of conduct of immortal officials and Taoists.
Zhang Yi spread out the jade book and began to talk about the obligations and rules after receiving the legal position, which focused on the "three refuges and nine precepts".
The "three refuges" are refuge, one is to take refuge in the "Tao Treasure", the second is to take refuge in the "Sutra Treasure", and the third is to take refuge in the "Master Treasure".
"Dao Bao" is actually the Yuan Shi Tianzun, "Jing Bao" is Lingbao Tianzun, and "Shi Bao" is Daode Tianzun, referred to as "Dao, Jing, Shi" Three Treasures.
The meaning of taking refuge in the Three Jewels, to summarize it simply, is similar to when Lu Bu met Dong Zhuo, he said that he had drifted for half his life, and he only hated that he had not met the master, and if he did not give up, he would like to worship his father-in-law.
In this world, children need to rely on their parents to be safe, and after taking refuge, the "Three Treasures of the Taoist Master" is like our parents, when they are bullied, although their parents are not around, as long as they call 'Mom', then there will be heavenly soldiers and gods to help, so the "Yi" of refuge also has the meaning of dependence.
As for the nine precepts, they are nine precepts, which are too cumbersome, and most of them are used to restrain their own morality, including not killing and the like, but in Zhang Zhiwei's view, these rules and precepts must make way for the word "Zhengyi", which is to drive away evil spirits and unify ten thousand.
After talking about the three refuge and nine precepts, Zhang Yi shook his staff and began the step of ordering gods, which was to determine which god was to assess everyone.
"Sweep away the wind to welcome the emperor, support the law and save the good people. I have hope to come......"
Every time Zhang Yi got the name of a righteous god, he pinched "please finger God" and dotted it off the stage.
Under the Dharma platform, someone immediately came out of the crowd, holding the god's divine card, reciting the divine mantra, and walking around the altar.
If there is no response to the god card, click on the next one, and if there is a reaction, then invite the god card to the altar.
"The general of the thunder capital, the officials of the Fu Yuan Fa. Marshal Deng of the Law of Flames, Xin Tianjun, a fierce official with silver teeth, Zhang Envoy of Feijie's retribution, and Liu Tianjun with an iron face ......"
Zhang Yi singled out the names of multiple righteous gods in a row, but there was no response, until he clicked on "Yisheng Thunder Exorcism and Evil Town Mansion Blessing Emperor", above the nine heavens, there seemed to be thunderclouds rolling and lightning flashing up, echoing from afar.
Zhang Yi's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly waved his hand to ask the deacon to invite the god's position to the altar.
Speaking of "Yisheng Thunder Exorcism and Evil Town Mansion Blessing the Emperor", few people may know, but when it comes to Zhong Kui, everyone knows it, and everyone knows it.
Knowing that the god who presided over the assessment this time was Zhong Kui, everyone in the audience who was going to participate in the assessment frowned in unison.
A righteous god, often holding a variety of priesthoods, Zhong Kui is not only the emperor who blesses the emperor with the exorcision of evil spirits, but also the judge of the underworld.
Most of the Yin God's personalities are more obedient, and the assessment they give is often more treacherous and sad.
And Zhong Kui's specialty is to eat ghosts, and his temper is particularly hot, and he has to have some hardships to get the legal position under him.
As Zhong Kui was invited to the altar, Zhang Zhiwei and his entourage, under the leadership of the deacon, walked to the altar and stood in front of it.
Zhang Yi picked up the yellow paper, pen, ink and sword, wrote and danced for a while, drew several talismans, and pasted a talisman on the chest and back of each Taoist priest who received the Dharma position.
During the whole process, there was no other sound on the altar, only the strange sound of the wind fluttering in the ears, the wind blowing, the talisman fluttering, the candlelight flickering, and the torch flickering.
In a trance, there were many shadows and shadows, as if there were many oblique figures swaying on the altar, making the spirits of the people who gave the Dharma priests in a trance, and they couldn't tell whether they were in the underworld and the yang realm, or in the heavens and the earth.
Zhang Zhiwei sat cross-legged on the altar, with talismans attached to his chest and back, he only felt a cool breath, climbing up from his bare feet, like a snake, climbing up to his knees, around his neck, and drilling straight into the human brain.
This uncomfortable feeling is called the invasion of external evil outside, and if it is here, it is the gods who have come and want to pull him into an indescribable space for assessment.
Several other Taoist priests who had to receive the Dharma were all pulled in the moment this feeling came out, and they didn't even feel too much, but Zhang Zhiwei's eight characters were as hard as iron, and this cold feeling was wrapped around his body, and his consciousness was still sober.
What's the matter, there is still this disadvantage in the eight characters, don't you give me the assessment qualifications?!
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Zhiwei winked at Zhang Yi frantically, but Zhang Yi was doing it, turning a blind eye to it, and Zhang Jingqing, who was still far away from the main altar, had sharp eyes, and found the strangeness of the apprentice, and hurriedly said "hmm" to Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi: "............"
Master Dao, I sang and danced bitterly for almost a day and a night, and I didn't drink any water.
Zhang Yi looked over dissatisfied, and found that Zhang Jingqing was giving him a look, and Zhang Yi and Zhang Jingqing's decades-long brother-brother relationship naturally understood it instantly.
Turning his head to look at Zhang Zhiwei, he found that the boss with this kid's eyes was blinking wildly at him, and then he looked at the others, all of them had a peaceful look on their faces, obviously having been led over by the gods.
Zhang Yi didn't know what was going on, and secretly slandered in his heart, if you kid is a little harder, I'm afraid that it will be a lonely star!
Immediately, he picked up the yellow paper, pen and ink, drew another talisman, and slammed it on Zhang Zhiwei's forehead: "Go you!" ”
Zhang Zhiwei only felt that a spirit was like a thunderbolt, rushing straight from the tail vertebrae to the heavenly spirit.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Zhiwei only felt that the clouds in the sky suddenly opened a mouth, like a funnel, and a thin mist soaked in from the mouth, like white ink scattered into the water, and the entire venue was enveloped at once.
