The two discussed properly, and the next morning Liu Yang went out to find someone, and after a while, he found three old men and two old women, followed by a few children.

Although Xie Mingzhou is not very old, it turns out that when he was in the Taoist temple, all the senior brothers were much older than him, so he was a young man, and he bowed to everyone and said: "Trouble your neighbors!"

A group of neighbors hurriedly returned the salute: "No trouble, no trouble." ”

One of the old men asked, "I just don't know how to get it?"

Xie Mingzhou said: "The three masters, the degree, the nationality, the scriptures, the degree of the master to lead the disciples and preside over the ceremony, the teacher only needs to be a guarantee, the master for the disciples to remove the vulgar clothes, wear Taoist clothes, hairpin crown, the ceremony can be signed and sealed. ”

then explained the specific ways to do it one by one, and then asked Liu Yang to go out and buy incense candles, cinnabar yellow paper offerings and other things.

Xie Mingzhou calculated the auspicious time, set at his own time to salute, he took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote the apprenticeship sticker, the text, and took out the talisman pen cinnabar, drew three talismans, and then invited the ancestor and the master to take out the spiritual position, put the incense case offerings, and waited for the auspicious time.

When the time came, Master Du shouted: "The auspicious time is here, salute!" Xie Mingzhou cleaned his hands with clean water, first put three pillars of incense on it, and then brought Du Qi to bow down to the patriarch and his master Mr. Shoujing.

With the singing of the master, Du Qi bowed three times and bowed to the master: tea, bowing to the master, Xie Mingzhou blessing, giving the crown (free scarf), giving the Tao number is true, because of the righteous words, the whole name is true. He also taught the teacher, proclaimed the precepts of the door rules, and the three refuges and five precepts.

Finally, the table was burned to the sky, and the three masters of the book were attached to the apprenticeship according to the handprints as a guarantee, and then Yizhen (later changed to Yizhen) thanked the three masters, and the ceremony was completed!

Everyone had a big meal of mutton, and the three divisions carried a leg of mutton and went home happily.

Since then, Yizhen has officially entered the Daomen, and it can be regarded as an orderly inheritance.

In the evening, Xie Mingzhou called Yizhen to his room, sat upright, and said to him: "You have entered the Dao Gate today, and you can be regarded as a cultivator from now on, but you must know the heavens, the earth and the people in the Tao! If you don't know the sky, how can you observe the universe and the sky? If you don't know the earth, how can you observe feng shui and distinguish yin and yang? If you don't know people, how can you strengthen your body? How can you cure diseases and save people? Today, you start by knowing people. ”

These words were all said to him by Master Shoujing at the beginning, but now that he has moved in, he can bluff Yizhen.

Xie Mingzhou took out four pictures and spread them out, but there were several acupuncture point maps, and a naked person occupied half of the paper, which was densely packed with small dots and small characters, which were connected by red lines.

On the other half of the paper, there is a song recipe: "Ren vein, perineum, and the underworld, the upper edge of the pubic bone." The middle pole is four inches below the umbilicus, and the three inches below the umbilicus are Guan Yuan ....... ”

The same is true for the other three, without dividing the front, back, left, and right.

After Yizhen took it and looked at it for a while, Xie Mingzhou took out another wooden figure, made of nanmu, dry and smooth, and it was also densely packed with small characters and several red lines, both front and back, left and right.

He said to Yizhen: "There is also a bronze figure in my Qinzhen Temple, which is no different from a real person, and when I rebuild the Taoist Temple, I will move it to practice the golden needle and acupoint for you." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to see it first, I'll tell you about the exercises and spells of our lineage. ”

Yizhen raised his head, and he continued: "There are many people during the day, so it is inconvenient to talk in detail. After our lineage was passed down from the Daoyuan Patriarch, it was mainly based on the Dan method of Chen Tuan Ancestor, but it has been passed down for several generations, and some techniques from other sects have also been introduced. Generally speaking, there are three levels of the Old Ancestral Dan Method, which are divided into Initiation, Innate and Jindan Dacheng. ”

After a pause, he said again: "I have opened the nine tricks for you, and also passed on the fetal breath trick and the technique of qi induction, the level of entering the Tao is passed, and the next step is to impact the innate nature, which is divided into five steps, one is to turn the Tao into less, the second is to turn less into the old, the third is to turn into old age, the third is to turn into old age, the fourth is to turn into death, and the fifth is to die and turn into a god...... , Sandan with the deed refers to the blending of Sandan, also known as Sanhua Juding, Jindan Dacheng......!

Yizhen was confused when he heard it, Xie Mingzhou said to him: "It's okay if you don't understand, you will naturally understand when you reach that realm in the future, you just need to practice step by step now, and if you don't understand, come and ask me again." ”

"The acupuncture point song must be read by heart, and the acupuncture points on the wooden figure must also be memorized, so that you can know it with your eyes closed. ”

After that, he took Yizhen away and asked him to go back to his room to see the acupuncture point map.

It turned out that the Qing army pursued the remnants of the Great Western Army unsuccessfully, and the grain and grass were not continued, so they withdrew to Baoning, leaving only a small number of men and horses to garrison Chongqing.

Zhu Rongfan of the Ming clan heard the news from the southeast of Kui, and hooked up with the thirteen thieves of Yao and Huang, and after attacking Chongqing Mansion, they wantonly burned, killed and plundered, and a large number of people were displaced.

Chongqing to Luzhou is only one or two hundred miles away, if Yao Huang's thirteen families want to call, it only takes three or four days to arrive, the people in the city are very frightened, Liu Yang also said to Xie Mingzhou: "Why don't we also find a place to hide?"

Xie Mingzhou felt that it didn't matter, the big deal was that he took the two of them with him and left, according to his current ability, how could he not survive?

However, after more than a month, the thieves did not come, but the Ming army came.

Wang Yingxiong, the governor of the Ming army, sent guerrilla horses to test and stationed in Luzhou Mansion.

This Wang Yingxiong was originally from Bazhong, Chongqing, and it was only one or two hundred miles away, and it was also a township, so he told Ma Yingxuan to restrain the Ming army very tightly, but there was no harm, and the bandits and bandits in the vicinity were not as rampant as before.

Luzhou slowly became lively again, and the firecrackers began to crack again during the Spring Festival, making people feel that they were still alive in the world after the disaster!

Xie Mingzhou is now also well-known in Luzhou, and everyone knows that he is a Taoist priest with a true tradition (in the land of Sichuan and Guizhou, all call Taoist priests Mr.), so when he settled down, people gradually asked him to do funeral rituals and exorcise evil spirits.

Although he doesn't have much money, he can still maintain food and clothing, and he no longer has to go up the mountain to hunt animals and fish in the water every day.

After he settled down for the grain merchant Wang San Mazi in the city, his reputation became even louder, and he knew that there was a Mr. Qingxi in Luzhou within a radius of dozens of miles.

As his name suggests, the family has always been engaged in the rice and grain business, and it is said that this rich man is timid, and when Zhang Xianzhong did not attack Chongqing last year, he dragged his children and daughters to Renhuai relatives' houses for refuge.

But the old father at home did not go with him, firstly, he was afraid of bumps on the road, and secondly, he was reluctant to live in this big yard at home, for fear that no one would live in it for a long time and be occupied by others.

Unexpectedly, after Zhang Xianzhong broke through the Chongqing Mansion, he immediately sent troops to Luzhou to plunder, and everyone came to the city to sell rice, and the Wang family had money and grain, but this old king was a lord who would rather die than give up money, and he was reluctant to take it out to save his life.

Those soldiers were all used to it, and they couldn't find money or food for a long time, and when they asked the old man, they refused to say, and in a fit of anger they cut him down in the house, and set fire to the house and drove away.
