Chapter 7: Apprenticeship in a Dream

Jingle ...... Jingle ......

Zhang Zhaohua heard a crisp bell sound in her sleep. Then came an old voice in my ears.

"I'm going to worship Master today, don't talk nonsense. Just follow along. Grandpa helped you prepare three animal wine bodies and played a red envelope for apprenticeship. ”

The voice sounded kind, familiar and unfamiliar.

Zhang Zhaohua felt as if she was being pulled by someone, and kept walking.

I don't know when, Zhang Zhaohua opened her eyes and found that she didn't know where she was coming. An old man pulled on the back of his hand. This old man, Zhang Zhaohua didn't know him. wanted to break free from the old man's hand, but found that he couldn't move at all, and he didn't even speak. Just follow mechanically.

The old man's other hand was on the pole, and he carried a load of things on the pole.

Zhang Zhaohua was very scared, vaguely remembering that she was still sleeping, and when she wanted to wake up, she would hear a crisp bell sound. Caught up in that scene again.

followed the old man to a Taoist temple, and an old Taoist came to him. He walked over and touched Zhang Zhaohua's head. He smiled at Zhang Zhaohua and nodded. The old Taoist has a long beard, and the old Taoist likes to brush his beard from time to time.

The old Taoist leader led Zhang Zhaohua and the old man into the Taoist temple and set up an altar in an incense hall. It is divided into upper and lower altars. There are all kinds of tablets of gods and ancestors, incense burners, and oil lamps are lit.

There are six words posted in the incense hall, which are: Heaven and Earth Kingdom Parent.

Then the old Taoist wrote three posts, the old patriarch, the patriarch, and the transmission master, and posted them on the division of the "Heaven and Earth Kingdom Parenting Teacher".

A square table is placed in front of the incense hall, there is a special tablet, the tablet is placed with liters and rice, and an upside-down god is placed under the table under the altar. The old Taoist said that this is the patriarch of the opening altar.

The other patriarch tablets are placed on the table. In front of the patriarch's tablet, put three cups of fragrant tea, three cups of pure wine, and put three plates of tribute fruit in front of the fragrant tea and pure wine. Fill a tea tray with three liters of rice, place two animals (i.e., fish and meat) on the tea tray, and a chicken (live rooster) under the table. Put another liter of rice on the table in front of the tablet, and put another liter of rice under the table in front of the tablet of the patriarch. On the left and right sides of the table, light a red wax, insert a hexagram into the rice in the rise of the table, and put a bowl of clean water on the table.

The old Taoist leader lit 15 incense sticks, made three series to the incense hall, and then installed 3 on the altar, 3 on the lower altar, 3 on the top, 3 on the bottom, and 3 on the bottom of the door.

The old Taoist elder pulled Zhang Zhaohua over to invite the god of Manjia. The old Taoist took three paper coins in his left hand and lit them, took some rice from the shengzi (bamboo utensils for rice) on the table with his right hand, sprinkled it three times into the incense hall, turned around and sprinkled it three times on the three days, and then turned around and made three moves to the incense hall.

Then, the old Taoist recited the mantra: "Bow down to the heart, and the sacredness is known." The soldiers and horses did not move, the grain and grass went first, the grain was moved before the troops were moved, and thousands of soldiers and horses descended to the mandala. Look up at the blue sky, the patriarch is in front of you, and look at the blue sky, the master is by your side. Come as soon as you see it, and come as soon as you invite it. Please invite the old monarch in front of the palace, enlighten the Huatuo sect leader, pass the degree of opening the knife and connecting the bones, stop the bleeding and pain, and remove the cold and reduce the fever.

Thinking of this, the old Taoist chief pulled his hand and asked Zhang Zhaohua to kneel, and then recited: "Knock the old patriarch Fu Qiwu, born at noon on the 25th day of December in the year of Gengshen; the ancestor Peng Qieshan, born on the 28th day of the first month of the Wuwu year; the master Luo Fuwen, born on the 24th day of April in the year of Jichou; and invite the master Jiang Xiaofen, born on the 27th day of the first month of the year of Renshen. Yin proof, Jiang Yufei, Yang proof, Peng Kezheng. A faction of teachers, who invites who responds, personally passes on to the disciples, and the party shows the response, and the spirit is everywhere. Please go to the front of the furnace, accept the sacrifice today, appreciate the letter fragrant pure tea, safflower livestock and wine body, Douzuo horse grain wrestler, money and wealth, a faction of ancestors, please across the mountain, across the mountain, the ancestor across the mountain is here, and the master across the river is coming. Then with incense, pious welcome, before the sect came to power, in a certain family, the ancestors of the past dynasties, the family is dedicated to Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and the blessing of the god of incense has a feeling, proving that the landlord of the family, the high truth of the Manhui Avenue, the Taishang Edict, the Taoyuan Xiantong, the upper palace has a feeling, all the immortals, the lower altar of immortality, the prosperous land, Mrs. Ruiqing, the fortune boy, into the Baolang Jun, Meishan Courtyard, Meng Yi Meng two Meng Thirteen Lang, please descend to the palace before the stage, help my disciples, open the knife and stop bleeding and pain. The disciple invited the gods on the third day, the holy week on the fourth day, a little one god, a thousand gods descended, a horse was slightly invited, and ten thousand horses came, first through the gods, and then through the will. Today, I invite my disciples to open the knife and stop the bleeding and pain, and invite the ancestors of the sages and gods, and pay the seven or five ancestors, and personally descend to pass on the Fa. I was invited to turn over the altar Zhang Wulang, and hurriedly went down the altar with me. There is a sassafras tree in front, which is the ancestral hall. The horn of the ox alarmed the heavens and the earth, and the bark of the camphor tree was blown, and I don't know which skin is my body? The left foot is on the head of the bowl of water, the right foot is on the head of the stove incense, the left hand is holding a demon sword, and the right hand is a rooster sacrifice five rampant. This chicken is not an extraordinary chicken, first in the West Mei Mountain, and then in the West Mei Mountain, born with a high head and low tail, the ancestor in front of the palace to report the chicken. One does not point to the depth of the Yellow River, two does not point to the height of the trees in the mountains, and three does not point to the blessings and disasters of others. The disciple goes out to incarnate, open the door and break the stone general, move the soldiers and horses to protect me, sit and stand the soldiers and horses to protect my body, if someone comes to ask me, I am a member of the old king's door. Lao Jun rode a bull to the sky, the Jade Emperor did not dare to ask Lao Jun; Lao Jun rode a bull to the sea, and the dragon king must pick up Lao Jun; Lao Jun rode a bull to the fire, and Emperor Zhurong greeted Lao Jun; Lao Jun rode a bull to walk in the mountains, and the trees in the mountains were divided on both sides. ”

After pleasing God, go to the three doors to invite soldiers and horses, while reciting the mantra while burning paper, "One invites the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, the second invites the earth soldiers and the earth generals, the third invites the three yuan generals, the fourth invites the four heavenly kings, the fifth invites the five hundred brute thunder, the sixth invites the six Ding Liujia, the seventh invites the seven-star general, the eighth invites the eight King Kongs, and the ninth invites the nine dragons and nine tigers." After inviting the soldiers and horses, go to the table to the incense hall to observe the patriarch, and recite the mantra: "Invite the ancestor of the sage gods, pay the seven or five patriarchs, descend in person, pass on the Fa, and ask for one saint and one yin, help my disciples, and put down a bowl of spiritual rune water." ”

Then play a hexagram, to one yin and one saint two hexagrams. As a result, at the beginning, a yang hexagram was played, indicating that the patriarch did not agree. The old Taoist said good things for a long time, and then hung up, this time out of the yin hexagram, the old Taoist laughed, and then played another hexagram, this time, once it was done, indicating that the ancestor agreed to bless this new disciple. After beating the hexagram, the old Taoist took away all the three animals.

Zhang Zhaohua drooled: That's all meat!
