The Patriarch Hall is a place dedicated to the ancestors of the past generations.

Every new disciple must worship the patriarch and understand the history of the sect before completing the final procedure and officially becoming a disciple of the Five Elements Sect.

As everyone came to the Patriarch's Palace, the corridor-like space was filled with many portraits of the Patriarch.

A portrait in the middle of the entrance is extraordinarily huge, twice as large as the others, and the painting is not a person, but a pair of virtuous and patriarchal couples.

The master of the Liu Hall said after introducing the pair of patriarchs: "On this larger image than the others, it is the ancestor of my sect, the virtuous couple of the founding patriarch of my sect, the ancestor Xuande and the ancestor of Xuanshui Peak Shuiyunxian, the original disciples of the Sanqingguan True Transmission.

Three thousand years ago, my Five Elements Sect was still a small sect of the Five Elements Sect, and because they were on the Five Elements Mountain, there were often frictions and conflicts. Later, the evil sect Mixed Yuan Sect invaded the Five Elements Mountain, and the joint confrontation of the five factions was not its opponent, so it asked the big faction Sanqingguan for help.

Sanqingguan sent the true disciple Xuandezi to come to relieve the siege, and the ancestor of the Xuanshui Peak Water Spirit Immortal has been growing for a long time, and the love is in agreement, and they became Taoist couples, and then because of the promotion of the two patriarchs, the five factions of Jindingmen, Qingmumen, Xuanshuiguan, Shenhuo faction, and Houtujiao finally discussed the unity of the five factions, and discussed the establishment of the Five Elements Sect.

When the two patriarchs ascended to the heavenly realm, they left behind the fundamental Taoist scriptures created by combining the Three Qingguan, the Mixed Yuan Sect and the exercises of the Five Sects, which not only laid the foundation for the future status of the Xuanmen sect of our Five Elements Sect, but also promoted the establishment of the Five Elements Sect.

So later, everyone respected this pair of patriarchs as the ancestors of the founding of the sect, and you need to clear your heart, worship the patriarch forward, make a big bow, and worship with me. ”

"Yes. ”

After everyone heard this, they stepped forward respectfully and stood behind the master of the willow hall.

I saw the master of Liu Tang standing in front of the futon mat, and said while doing it: "The eyes are level, the arms are drooping, and the hands are knotted with the Taiji Yin and Yang seal, and they are raised to the eyebrows."

Place your left hand in your heart socket and your right hand downward, squat down on your waist, and press your right palm down on the center of the mat.

The left palm is facing downwards, covering the right hand in the center of the prayer mat, and is crossed with the right hand in a cross. After pressing your hands on the center of the prayer mat, you will kneel down on your knees, and at the same time bow down with your whole body, your forehead flat on the ground, and your whole body will prostrate like a spirit turtle.

Pick it up with your left hand and place it in front of your heart, while holding down the mat with your right hand to prop yourself up, leaving your head and knees off the mat.

Both hands are still tied with the Tai Chi Yin and Yang seal, and the forehead is raised in front of the same front. This is a gift.

If it is three times, after the three salutations, the seal bends down, hangs down to the knees, and at the same time takes a step back, and the seal of both hands is raised to the forehead again, and the big gift is completed. ”

The hall master turned around and asked everyone, "But look carefully." ”

"I saw it. The crowd answered.

I saw that after everyone bowed according to the etiquette demonstrated by the lord of the willow hall, they followed the master of the willow hall one by one to introduce the ancestors of the flying immortals of the previous dynasties and the patriarchs of the various veins.

After the worship, everyone left the ancestral hall with the lord of the willow hall, and the ordination ceremony officially ended.

Afterwards, Senior Brother Wang led everyone to say goodbye to Uncle Liu and walked towards the deacon hall.

The deacon's hall is a place where sect tasks are issued, disciples are assigned miscellaneous servants, and benefits are distributed.

Outside the deacon's hall, everyone found that it was more lively and popular than the ordination hall.

At this time, Senior Brother Wang said to Lord Yang Gu: "Senior Uncle, I will take all the junior brothers to get things first, and I will bother Uncle Wang to wait outside for a while." ”

Yang Gu touched his beard and said, "It's okay, you wait, the old man is waiting here." ”

"Thank you, uncle, I'm waiting to see you. ”

Everyone followed Brother Wang into the deacon hall, which was very large and divided into three counters, on which were written the words "Fu", "Shou" and "Lu".

Senior Brother Wang led everyone to a counter with the word "Lu" written on it.

At this time, Yang Qingcheng asked as he walked: "Senior brother, why is the word Fu Shoulu written on the counter, is there any meaning?"

"That's it, senior brother, what is the purpose of these three counters!" Sikong Jian also asked.

The rest of the crowd listened curiously.

"This counter is the longest and most staffed Fu counter is to release all kinds of tasks, and each task completed can be correspondingly sect merit points, and each merit point can be exchanged for corresponding cultivation resources and functions.

The counter is smaller, and there is only one person to serve the Kotobuki counter, which is the place where the sect tasks are assigned. Each outer disciple must complete three sect tasks every year, if there is a disciple who has outstanding performance in the task, adds bricks and tiles to the foundation of the sect, and contributes to the survival of the sect, depending on the size of the contribution, the corresponding sect merit points can be obtained.

Now we go to the Lu counter where there are three deacons. One is in charge of the welfare of new initiation disciples and outer disciples, the other is in charge of the welfare of inner disciples and true disciples, and the other is in charge of the offerings of sect masters and elders.

What we are going to receive now is the benefit of the sect once per new disciple, and in the next year, you can also come here to receive the benefits of the outer gate, but at the end of the year, those who have not entered the inner gate must complete the three miscellaneous tasks assigned by the sect every year in order to get the resources of the sect.

If you fail to complete the task three times a year, you will deduct ten merit points, double the task in the next year, and the penalty will be doubled. ”

After hearing this, everyone was very curious about the merits and merits of the sect that Senior Brother Wang said. So he asked:

"Senior brother, what are the merit points and merit points of the sect, and does it have any effect?"

Senior Brother Wang looked at everyone's curious eyes and said with a smile: "Knowing fate is a blessing, sincerity is merit, and perfection is virtue."

As long as the disciples of the sect do the benefit of the sect or make their own efforts, they can be counted as good fortune, and they can get the merit points of the sect. If there is great merit, there will naturally be great welfare repayment, which can be a cultivation resource or a sect function.

Merit must be seen from within, without seeking external offerings, with a humble heart, and untainted application, so that it can break through life and death, attain nirvana, and save sentient beings. Only if you have great merit to the sect and great virtue to all sentient beings, can you get merit points.

For those who have great merits, the sect is fully supplied with resources, and you can enter and exit the Sanqing Pavilion at will to watch the cheats of the exercises, and you can be the master of a peak and so on. ”

"Wow, are there any seniors with great merit in that sect?"

"Since the opening of the sect, there are less than two palms, and there is only one person in the world, who is the uncle of the contemporary sect master, the ancestor of the Taishang Elder Fengxingyun Master. Senior Brother Wang said with respect and admiration.

Senior Brother Wang looked at the junior brothers and said, "Okay, let's not talk about it, let's go to receive the benefits first, and then talk after returning to Aoki Peak." ”

"Yes, brother. ”

Everyone came to the Lu counter under the leadership of Senior Brother Wang, and Senior Brother Wang said to the person on the far right: "This junior brother, this is polite, I don't know what the senior brother is called, today the deacon Uncle Zheng is here, and the seven junior disciples behind me are the new initiation disciples this time, and they have to bother the junior brother to work hard and help distribute it." ”

"Senior brother is polite, junior brother Wang Jie, Uncle Zheng has recently made a breakthrough in cultivation, and has been in retreat for many days, since it is a new disciple to receive benefits, please also give me the token, I can register and give the distribution of materials. ”

The receptionist Wang Jie said politely.

"Oh, it's really gratifying to congratulate Uncle Wang for his breakthrough, so thank you to Senior Brother Wang. Senior Brother Wang thanked him politely, and then asked everyone to give the token to Senior Brother Wang Jie.

"Yes, Uncle Zheng's cultivation is a breakthrough, and we are also happy. ”

After Wang Jie finished speaking, he returned the token after everyone registered, took out many storage bags, and gave one to each person.

Yang Qingcheng took a storage bag and said to Wang Jie, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wang." ”

When I opened the storage bag, I saw two sets of clothes, a sword, two books, and a bottle of elixir.
