Until the fourth day of the Dajiao.
On the top of the Mingqing Mountain, five-color cloth covers the sky, and there are even seven colorful clouds in the sky. The Zhaijiao platform is hung with red sails, with the names of the gods written on them, and is filled with statues. Many Taoists on the platform and off the stage are stepping on the Yu steps and praying.
God prays for blessings.
In the distance, there are futons placed, and many Taoists are sitting and watching.
Today is filthy.
Many Taoist priests from the Lingfa Sect were also invited to watch. This was also the first event in this fasting ceremony that the three people from Fuqiu Temple were invited to participate.
Lin Jue also came to join in the fun.
After arriving, I discovered that this kind of participation only prepared a place for Taoists like them under the Zhaijiao platform. They sat on the futon and watched the Taoists of the Fulu Sect perform rituals at the altar, praying for blessings and offering sacrifices to the gods, and calling for the gods to cleanse the world.
There are more and more demons and ghosts, specific to each state capital, and some even specific to a certain village or a certain mountain in a certain county.
The three people in Fuqiu Temple were whispering to each other.
The third brother told them that these specific place names were collected by the Taoist priests of the Fulu Sect. The number of gods they usually offer to the gods is limited and they are too busy. This time, the gods of the heavens were worshiped, so they took this opportunity to pay homage to the highest gods.
The gods reported to them, asking them to send heavenly soldiers and generals, and all the heavenly ministries to unite to eliminate them in a unified way.
It sounds like it has changed from the duties of the gods in various places to a larger-scale operation to eliminate demons and filth.
However, judging from last year's Qiyunshan Jiao Festival, most of them stayed on the surface and had little effect.
Lin Jue just looked at it as a surprise.
After the ceremony, Master Dongming of Yanxia Temple had another speech, which was the same as what the third senior brother said. Most of them were about calling on many righteous people to work together to eliminate demons.
But the strange thing is that the real person is obviously very far away, but when he speaks, his voice seems to be coming from a foot away in front of him.
"The world is in chaos, and it is not the responsibility of the gods to subjugate demons and eradicate them. There are many Taoist friends below who are true practitioners, who are good at practicing Taoism, understand magic, and have vast magical powers. Subduing demons and eradicating demons and upholding the right path are exactly the duties of our generation of Taoists."
Lin Jue was originally just here to gather the number of people. Sitting on the futon, he seemed to be listening to the lecture. In fact, most of the time he was thinking about the secrets of the "Mountain God Body Protection Method".
It’s not just him, it’s not just the Taoists of the Lingfa Sect, even the Taoists of the Fulu Sect, some young people find it very boring and can’t help but desert and whisper to each other. This is also more representative of the overall character of the Taoist priests.
However, when he heard this voice, Lin Jue suddenly felt a sense of movement, which made him surprised.
Yes, this should also be a kind of magic.
I think there should be another page in the ancient book.
What is this called? Sound transmission?
Lin Jue came back to his senses and felt that it was right to come to this big feast.
After receiving the magic from this real man, Lin Jue also became serious and listened to him attentively.
Then I heard this real person say: "Nowadays, demons and ghosts appear frequently, which not only brings disaster to the people of the world, but also endangers the country and the country. A stable country means that the people are stable. If the country is stable, the people will live and work in peace and contentment. If the country is shaken, many Taoist friends will be in the mountains.
It’s hard to be safe, so it’s better to carry your sword and go down the mountain, report it to the country, and go down to protect the common people..."
Lin Jue heard some noise inexplicably.
When he turned around, he saw many Taoists around him frowning or curling their lips.
These Taoist priests should all practice magic.
I don't know why I frown.
The junior sister sat on the futon to his left and suddenly leaned towards him, as if she wanted to say something to him.
Lin Jue thought she had some insights into this, so he also leaned toward her, but only heard her ask:
"Senior brother, where has Fuyao gone?"
"..."
Lin Jue sat up straight and looked around. The fox who was sitting in the distance waiting for them was indeed gone, but he was too lazy to pay attention to her and continued to listen.
By the time I finished listening, the slut was completely over.
Many Taoists got up and left the place.
"So this is the Great Jiao. I thought I could see the gods coming." The junior sister scratched her head and said, "But I just saw them running around, playing music, singing sutras, and talking."
"yes."
"Senior brother, are you bored?"
"good."
"Huh?"
The junior sister couldn't help but be shocked, thinking that he was more enlightened than she was.
"Come on, where is the third senior brother?"
"Oh, Third Senior Brother said that he saw a familiar figure and went over to take a look. Let's go back first."
"good."
"Where's Fuyao?"
"It's smart, don't worry about it."
Sure enough, the two of them walked back all the way. When they returned to the bamboo house, the fox was already sitting at the door waiting for them, and with it were two hares next to it.
"So you went to catch rabbits." Lin Jue said predictably, "Where did you catch them? Aren't they all bamboo forests here?"
The fox sat upright and said nothing when he heard his question. He just turned around and looked far away.
Lin Jue picked up the ears of the two rabbits and lifted them up. He found that they were still alive and had no obvious wounds on their bodies. However, for some reason, they refused to run away. It was not until Lin Jue lifted them up that they seemed to react and began to
He kicked his legs as hard as he could to run away.
"It just so happens that the third senior brother has been complaining for several days that there is no meat in the rice."
Just as he was talking, the third senior brother just came back from outside, accompanied by an old Taoist who casually wore his Taoist robes. His hair was messy, and he seemed to have repaired roads.
Seeing the rabbit in Lin Jue's hand, the third senior brother's eyes immediately lit up: "Junior brother, where did you get the rabbit?"
"Fuyao caught him."
"Good Fuyao!" Third Senior Brother praised, "Can we eat meat today?"
"Nature cannot be wasted."
"How to eat it? The ginger and pepper sesame rabbit that my junior brother made in Guanzhong was very delicious!"
"There is no pot, so we can only bake it and eat it." Lin Jue responded casually, looking at the person next to him, "This is..."
"Oh! Look at me! Eating vegetarian food every day on this mountain is really making me hungry to death!" Third Senior Brother said, pointing to the Taoist next to him, "This is our Second Senior Uncle, whom you have never seen before.
These are the two new disciples that master took in last spring and summer. This old boy’s surname is Lin Mingjue, and this junior sister’s surname is, I forgot, her name is Qingyao.”
"The surname is Liu..."
The junior sister added weakly.
"I've met Second Master Uncle."
Lin Jue looked at the old Taoist.
The master should have seven junior disciples, but he has been here for more than a year and has never seen any of them. He doesn't know where they went or what they did after they came down the mountain.
I think this second uncle also came to participate in the feast.
"I've met the Second Master Uncle!"
The younger junior sister also followed suit.
"No need to be polite."
The old Taoist looked at them and waved his hands casually.
"Second Senior Uncle, let me tell you, you are very lucky. My junior brother has good cooking skills. I don't believe you are not tired of eating vegetarian food in the mountains for the past few days." Third Senior Brother's tone was enthusiastic and unrestrained.
Lin Jue felt much more relaxed when he saw him like this.
"How many days have you eaten? I just arrived last night, and I was planning to come over today to ask if you are here." Second Master Uncle said, "Besides, I ate last night, and the food at Yanxiaguan is quite good.
, much better than what we dealt with on our own at Fuqiu Peak."
He lowered his head and said:
"The rabbit will be dry after being roasted. It is better to chew wood. It may not be as delicious as the food in Mingqiao Mountain!"
"this……"
When the third senior brother thought about it, it seemed true.
He had no choice but to turn his head and look at Lin Jue.
Lin Jue understood what he meant and quickly went to clean up.
The junior sister went to prepare firewood.
Not long after, several Taoists were sitting cross-legged in front of the bamboo house.
The rabbit had been taken care of, with many cuts made on it, and some spices were rubbed on it. The little junior sister breathed out a breath, and the firewood ignited. With a finger, the flames were suppressed.
Lin Jue skewered the rabbit meat with wooden branches and put it on top to bake.
The third senior brother and the second senior uncle were talking.
The second uncle had a beard and looked younger than his master, but he was also very old, but he didn't have much of a friendly feeling - the flames brought warmth to him, and he felt a little hot, so he simply opened his clothes to reveal the white flowers underneath.
Chest, abdomen, and some scars on it.
"What a fucking idiot! Didn't the chaos in the world start from the imperial court? Oh, now that the world is in chaos, they ask us to protect the country and the country!"
"Uncle Master, this is Mingchi Mountain."
"So what about Mingqi Mountain? If we can't bring down the gods, I can bulldoze them all by myself!"
"this……"
"If you were really respectful, would you still roast a rabbit for a vegetarian feast?"
"Um?"
When it comes to himself, the third senior brother instantly sat up straight and said seriously: "Uncle is still the one who can reason!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but look at Lin Jue beside him: "Junior brother, what did you put on it?"
"Oil, and spices."
Lin Jue took out a bottle of oil and explained to him:
"Rabbit meat doesn't have much oil and water, so it doesn't have much flavor, so when roasting, you have to apply a lot of oil, otherwise it will be dry and unpalatable. After applying oil, although it will still be roasted dry, it can be burnt on the outside.
Crispy, dry and fragrant inside.”
The young Taoist and the old Taoist both looked at each other.
"It's not just us, some people from the Fulu Sect also disagree. When Master Dongming spoke today, the group of Taoist priests in Qiyun Mountain obviously had opinions, but they didn't speak out."
"Do they have disagreements too?"
"Of course there are differences!" Uncle Second Master raised his eyebrows, "The world is in chaos, not to mention us Taoist priests. Even the gods in the sky may not be able to escape. We can protect the people of the world, and protect the country of this imperial court.
It’s another thing! These two look similar, but can they actually be the same thing?”
Lin Jue was also listening carefully.
He knew in his heart that he had not been in this world for a long time, and the road he had traveled was only from Shucun to Yishan. He had not seen enough of this world, let alone understood it. Regardless of the three
Senior brother or second junior uncle, their understanding and experience of the current world are obviously not comparable to mine, and naturally they have more insights than mine.
Now it seems that the court is in chaos.
Among the four famous mountains of Fulu Sect in the world, at least the Xuantian Temple in Qiyun Mountain and the Yanxia Temple in Mingqing Mountain are different.
Taoist temples worship gods, and different Taoist temples worship different gods. Does this mean that the gods behind both sides also have differences on whether to protect the current imperial court?
Or maybe the reason why the Great Jiao was held at Qiyun Mountain last year and again at Mingqing Mountain this year is because of this disagreement?
Lin Jue turned the rabbit and said thoughtfully.
I also heard that this uncle seemed to have a bad temper.
At the same time, his abilities seem to be very high.
This is quite reasonable——
Fuqiu Temple was passed down from ancient immortals. The seven spells may be strong or weak, but they are all orthodox spells. Later, other spells were continuously collected, and now there are more than seven.
Guanzhong also has the ability to know people and their fates. It can be said that most of the disciples are at least highly talented. Lin Jue's generation, up to now, should be considered the weakest among the disciples of Fuqiu Guan in the past.
The reason is that the master lived too long and the master accepted his disciples too late. As a result, even the senior brother has only been on the mountain for more than ten years.
But this second master uncle is already in his seventies and eighties. He has been practicing for many years. Whether it is Taoist magic power or magical attainments, he should have reached the peak level of his life.
I don't know what he does.
While thinking about it, he also said to his junior sister:
"Junior sister, you can apply some spices. Because rabbit meat has no taste. If it is very bland, it will just smell like meat, so you need to apply heavy spices on it, so that it will taste better."
"oh……"
Only the little junior sister in the audience was the most well-behaved, watching the fire carefully and busy at work.
The fragrance has gradually spread.
"Gudong..."
The two Taoists couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
But not only them, but also the Taoist priests passing by outside couldn't help but look this way when they smelled the aroma of burnt meat mixed with spices and oil. They also continued to look at Mingchi Mountain.
After eating food lacking in oil and water for several days in Yanxia Temple, I couldn't stop drooling.
Someone in the nearby bamboo house also opened the door.
Most of these Taoists are free and easy by nature, and they don't stick to trivial matters. Immediately, some people came over here, the careless ones had a shy face, and the more sophisticated ones brought a pot of wine over and wanted to share the meat with two mouthfuls.
Just as he got closer, he heard the old Taoist open his mouth:
"The dog-like Master Dong Ming..."
Everyone's expressions suddenly froze, and their steps suddenly stopped, and they had no choice but to walk back angrily.
This is the haze view!
Nowadays, the Fu Lu Sect is in power. There are a total of four real people in the world, belonging to the four famous mountains. They all have high reputations among the people and the court. This is one of them.
Who dares to come forward?
Chapter completed!
