Volume VII Chapter 40 The Initiation Ceremony
In the evening, everyone gathered in Mu Luoqing's room to listen to him explain the process of tomorrow's ceremony and what should be said, done, and paid attention to in the ceremony.
After everyone wrote it down, they went back to their rooms, and tonight Luo Changfeng and Shen Jianxin didn't wait for the time to practice the Nine Yin True Scripture, so they fell asleep directly.
Early the next morning, the neatly dressed new disciples gathered in Taiji Square, Mu Luoqing and Mo Qingxue took them to the Sanqing Hall first, and worshiped the ancestor of Sanqing, and then passed through the Liangyi Gate and went to the main hall, and the new disciples were finally able to see the scenery of the main hall.
The main hall is more magnificent than other palaces, there are six floors high, between the two side halls and the main hall are connected by the air corridor, the hall door hangs a plaque with three gilded characters of "Chunyang Palace", on both sides of the plaque, engraved with "the law of nature, the crown of the heavens" eight big characters.
There is a hot spring in the wall behind the main hall of Chunyang Palace, the spring becomes Wuji Dojo, the main hall is in front of Taiji Square, there is Wuji Dojo in the back, look up at the sky and the clouds, look down on the wonders of ten thousand zhang, the middle eaves and arches are connected with the lying snow, the clouds cover the mist for many years, and it is very aura.
And the top of the mountain behind the main hall, is the so-called top of Mount Hua, watching the sunrise and sunset on the top of Mount Hua, this is an activity that later generations are extremely keen on, but the pure yang disciples of this era, they have long been accustomed to the sunrise and sunset of Mount Hua, and there is no sense of freshness.
At this time, two rows of pure Yang disciples outside the main hall stood beside the door, all solemn, and the new disciples looked solemn, lined up as two teams, followed by Mu Luoqing and Mo Qingxue, and walked into the grand and solemn hall.
In the main hall, the five figures stood side by side, standing in the middle was an old man with white hair and kind eyebrows, he was wearing a white robe printed with the Taiji diagram, a whisk on his arm, and looked at the new disciples who entered the hall with a smile.
There is no doubt that he is the second head of the Pure Yang Palace, Li Wusheng, the son of Yuxu.
Standing on Li Wangsheng's left side was a middle-aged Taoist man with a fat body, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, and a gourd hanging from his waist.
He has a pair of figure-eight eyebrows, and his eyes are almost narrowed into a thin slit due to obesity, which looks quite joyful, but judging from his pursed lips, it seems that they are not as easy to get along with as they seem on the surface.
Judging from the position he was standing, there was no doubt that it was Shangguan Boyu, the Lingxuzi, and there was a middle-aged man standing beside him who was burly and sturdy, not under Dong Long at all.
His greatest characteristic is that he carries a giant sword on his back that is about the same height as others, like a door panel, even if the giant sword is diagonally backed, the tip of the sword almost touches the ground.
What surprised Luo Changfeng was that this sword was the same as Kunlun's big sword, and a long iron chain was attached to the sword grid, and the iron chain was naturally wrapped around his body like Kunlun usually.
He is Zhuo Fengming, the son of Jinxu, the iron chain giant sword is different from Kunlun's simple fighting, Zhuo Fengming is too angry, this sword is used by his master Chunyang Zhenren to suppress his anger.
Yu Rui and Qi Jin stood on the right side of Li Wusheng, this position was not indiscriminate, and the ranking of their senior brothers could be seen from their positions.
Li Wangsheng is naturally the largest, Shangguan Boyu is the second, Yu Rui is the third, Qi Jin is the fourth, and Zhuo Fengming is the youngest.
After the new disciples entered the main hall and stood still, Mu Luoqing and Mo Qingxue stepped forward and saluted Li Wusheng: "Meet the master of the sect, the new disciples of this session have arrived, please show the master." ”
"Hmm. After Li Wangsheng bowed his head, the two walked to the side and stood sideways.
Li Wusheng took two steps forward, shook off the dust, and said softly: "You will enter my Pure Yang Mountain Gate, and you should concentrate on cultivation, take refuge in the Three Jewels, and follow the Nine Precepts." ”
"Those who take refuge in the Three Jewels, take refuge in the Tao, take refuge in the Sutras, take refuge in the Master, the so-called nine precepts, one is diligent, the other is respectful, the third is not killed, the fourth is not adulterous, the fifth is not stealing, the sixth is not angry, the seventh is not deceitful, the eighth is not arrogant, and the nine are not two. ”
"Would you like to be respected?"
The new disciples knotted the meridian seal in their hands and said in unison: "The disciples are willing to take refuge in the Three Jewels and abide by the Nine Precepts. ”
The meridian seal is the handprint of the people in the Taoist sect when holding the fist and saluting, when saluting, the right hand holds the thumb of the left hand, and the palm of the left hand covers the back of the right hand, which is the meaning of negative yin and yang, and the hands show the shape of "Tai Chi".
Li Wusheng bowed slightly in satisfaction, and then said: "I enter the martial arts with the Dao method in my Pure Yang Palace, cultivate the heart with Qing cultivation, and cultivate the heart before cultivating the martial arts, so as to become the martial arts of pure yang." ”
"I am pure yang specializing in one of the ways of the sword, the so-called goodness is like water, water is good for all things without fighting, and the husband is not fighting, so the world can not fight with it, fight with it, and it will run through your life of practicing swordsmanship. ”
Therefore, from this moment on, you must make a vow of Taoist practice: the road can be walked, but it is no longer the path taken by ordinary people, the name can be sought, and it is no longer the name that ordinary people seek. ”
"Where to go in the future, what is the name, you must have the Heavenly Heart, participate in the supreme sword, are you willing to abide by this oath for the rest of your life, cultivate the Dao Law inside, practice swordsmanship outside, and abide by the light of the Dao Heart?"
The new disciples once again said in unison: "The disciple hereby swears that from now on, he will travel a thousand miles under his feet, and with the sword in his hand, he will seek the way of heaven and earth." ”
Li Wusheng said with a pleased chin of relief: "Good, good, the road is impermanent, only those who are firm in their hearts and break through endless difficulties can escape from the world." ”
"From today onwards, you will officially become my Pure Yang Palace, I hope that you can stick to today's words, cultivate diligently, ask your heart with a sword, seek the way of heaven, and carry forward my pure yang Dao method. ”
All new disciples: "Follow the teachings of the real people in charge." ”
Li Wusheng looked at Mu Luoqing and Mo Qingxue, and said, "Two junior nephews, take good junior brothers and sisters, and train them to become talents." ”
"It will live up to the expectations of the master. The two bowed and were about to leave with their disciples, when Li Wusheng suddenly said, "Who is Luo Changfeng?"
Luo Changfeng, who was standing in the front row, was slightly surprised, took a step forward, bowed down and said, "Disciple Luo Changfeng, meet the real person in charge." ”
Li Wusheng looked at him and nodded, and said to Mu Luoqing and the others: "Luo Changfeng stays, you guys take the others first!"
"Yes. ”
Mu Luoqing and Mo Qingxue left with the new disciples, and Luo Changfeng was the only one left in the hall to face the gaze of the five sons of Chunyang, and he was a little uncomfortable in his heart, these are all powerful things that can solve him with one move!
With a kind smile on his face, Li Wusheng said, "You don't have to be nervous, you just have some questions to ask you." ”
Luo Changfeng said quietly: "Yes, the disciple must know everything, and he will say everything." ”
Li Wusheng said: "Well, I sensed that there is a true qi in your body, although the condensation is insufficient, the amount is very large, even we can't reach it, what's going on?"
Luo Changfeng deliberately showed a sudden expression, and said respectfully: "Back to the real person in charge, the disciple was given a six-winged centipede Neidan by the elders of the sect, and after taking it, he cultivated this body of true qi. ”
There is nothing wrong with it, the starting point of his strength is the six-winged centipede, but it is a pity that the "Qianyuan Condensation Qigong" he practiced at the beginning was only a low-level martial arts world, and the absorption rate of the six-winged centipede Neidan energy was too low.
If he took it after cultivating the Nine Yin True Scripture, the inner pill of a six-winged centipede would not be worse than the wood root he took.
