Shen Feifei looked at the endless stone steps in front of him.
The stone steps were all cleaned and spotless. There were thousands of steps so high, but there was no snowflake or ice at all. Shen Feifei almost got dazzled.
Rubbing his eyes, Shen Feifei looked again, and it was still the same. There was no residual snow left on the high stone steps, but other places on the mountain were covered with snowflakes.
Who is so diligent!
City D just had a heavy snowfall a few days ago. Even if the temperature has increased significantly in the past few days, it won't melt so quickly, right?
It seems that someone must have cleaned the stone steps, and they were very sincere and patient, sweeping from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
"Feifei, don't be stunned, let's go up the mountain to worship the gods!" Shen's mother pulled Shen Feifei, who was still in a daze, and urged her to follow the team.
The team, yes, is the team that goes up the mountain to worship gods.
At this time, there were already several groups of people forming small groups at the foot of the mountain, holding tribute incense and candles and walking towards the Xianfu Palace on the top of the mountain.
In previous years, very few people went to Qingcheng Mountain during this season. You can count them on ten fingers.
The weather is cold, the road is slippery, and the wind on the mountain is so strong that it freezes people to death. No one has enough time to go to the mountain to drink from the northwest wind in the middle of winter. Except for some Taoist priests from Xianfu Palace and staff at the scenic spot who have to stay there, the rest No one would go there at all. Naturally no one would clean the stone steps leading up the mountain.
But this year, not only were the thousands of stone steps cleaned, but so many people came to worship the gods devoutly. Shen Feifei couldn't figure out these abnormal behaviors.
"How come there are so many people going up the mountain in the winter?" Shen Feifei always thought that it was silly for her and Shen's mother to go up the mountain to worship gods at this time. She didn't expect that there were so many people accompanying them to be silly together. .
"I don't know, girl, some time ago, some immortal masters came here. I heard that they can call the wind and rain, and they have great abilities. It's true. We all came here to see the immortal masters' magic. Since the end of the world, Not long after we started, this place has been very lively, but other scenic spots are not like that." Before Shen's mother could speak, an older woman who was going up the mountain next to her breathlessly replied.
Immortal master, calling for wind and rain? Shen Feifei raised his eyebrows, thoughtfully.
If it were before the end of the world, she would definitely sneer at this man's words. Calling wind and rain, etc., isn't it just a way for some charlatans and swindlers to fool people?
But so many things have happened after the end of the world, some of which are difficult to explain with common scientific theories.
Just like her ability to use supernatural powers, it was impossible to explain it scientifically before the apocalypse. But it really appeared after the apocalypse.
So what is the "magic" of these immortal masters? Shen Feifei decided to go up the mountain to see what happened.
As the crowd slowly climbed up, Shen Feifei and Shen's mother spent more than an hour finally reaching the top of the mountain.
It was almost noon, and the weather was gradually getting hotter. The warm sunlight shone on people's faces, making people almost think that spring was approaching.
Looking from a distance, there is a two-story wooden colorful building on the top of the mountain, with glazed eaves and flying tiles. It is majestic and has five ridges and six animals squatting on the eaves. The remaining snow on the roof sparkles in the sunlight. .
The century-old evergreen tree next to the building, which only two people could embrace, still had a lot of snow on it that had not melted cleanly, dripping with newly melted snow water.
On the top of the mountain, people come and go, offering incense, worshiping gods, and visiting. They are crowded and crowded, and it is very lively.
Several rows of Taoist priests chanting sutras attentively, the large incense sticks filled with smoke, the lay people paying homage devoutly, and a large signboard of "Xianfu Palace" hanging directly above the tall main hall, all made the already very beautiful place. The majestic Taoist temple is more solemn and solemn.
In such an atmosphere, Shen's mother Shen Feifei was also deeply affected, and her admiration for the Three Pure Ones and Four Emperors in the Main Hall arose spontaneously.
After spending a lot of money, Shen's mother bought a big, long and thick stick of incense stick. Regardless of the fact that the vagina in front of the statue was cold and hard, she immediately knelt down and worshiped devoutly in front of the statue.
He muttered words to thank the gods for allowing their family to reunite, and prayed that the family would continue to live a peaceful and happy life in the future.
Seeing Shen's mother kneeling down, Shen Feifei had no choice but to kneel down too, clasped her hands together, and cooperated with Shen's mother in praying sincerely.
Just after offering incense, I heard a commotion outside the hall.
"The Immortal Master is here, the Immortal Master is here, everyone, come and pay homage to the Living Immortal -" Outside the hall, people were making a noise, and a large round group of people was seen rushing towards this direction.
Gradually, the crowd protruded, forming a sharp corner, and then the gap opened wide. The onlookers were pushed aside by Taoist security guards holding ring sticks. A man wearing a four-cornered corrugated crown hat, holding a white Buddhist chandelier in his hand, and wearing an ancient gilt The guy in Jin Taiji Tu Taoist robe walked out from the crowd in a swaggering way.
Behind him were two Taoist boys in their early teens wearing plaid clothes, one on the left and one on the right.
This Taoist priest separated from the crowd and went straight to the main hall. He took the incense stick from the Taoist priest on duty in the hall and quickly started to worship. It was as if he was completing a certain procedure, and it was done in less than a few seconds. Then he swept his sleeves, He turned around, put his hands behind his back, and walked out with his head held high.
Um, is this a pilgrimage to the gods?
Why does this immortal master seem to be perfunctory and has no intention of worshiping their immortal ancestor?
Shen Feifei pouted, and felt serious contempt for him in her heart. As a Taoist disciple, if you don't respect your ancestor, how can you practice Zen and gain Taoism?
"Quickly, everyone, get out of the way. The immortal master is going to use his magic to pray for the immortal dew for everyone!" The two boys outside shouted, and the security Taoist priests holding the sticks drove everyone to both sides.
In a short time, a large space of seventy or eighty square meters was cleared in the main hall courtyard that was originally full of people.
Afterwards, some people dressed as low-level Taoist priests were busy for a while, moving tables and taking tribute incense cases, and kept going back and forth.
The immortal master raised his head and stood on the steps of the main hall, looking through his nostrils at the group of believers who were bowing to him outside the hall, ignoring them with a face.
Is this guy with a mustache, rat eyes, and a wretched and arrogant face an immortal master?
Will you also use immortal magic to obtain immortal dew?
Shen Feifei couldn't tell that he looked like an outsider. He couldn't be a liar! It really made people seriously doubt him.
After a while, these Taoist priests arranged the scene of asking for immortal dew. Everyone present calmed down and waited quietly for the immortal master to perform his profound Taoist magic.
"Huh-huh-" The immortal master was very smart. He touched his mustache and walked down the steps with one hand behind his back.
