my weird life

Chapter 525 Conferring on the Altar (12)

On the west side of Tianshi's private house, in front of the courtyard of 'Wanfa Zongtan'.

The front center pillar is coiled with a golden dragon,

A gold-rimmed plaque hangs on the forehead, with four gilt characters written on it: Wanfa Zongtan.

The two Taoist priests led Su Wu and Yun Nishang to stand under the camphor tree in front of the door, and the senior Taoist priest saluted Su Wu Jishou and said, "We can only send you here, Mr. Su.

The main hall of Wanfa Zongtan is usually not allowed to enter and leave at will, except when disciples are passing on teachings, conferring talismans, or ascending talismans.

You go inside by yourself,
There will be Taoist priests guarding the altar to guide you. "

Su Wu stood under the shade of a tree, looked up at the bluestone-built courtyard, there was indeed a Taoist priest standing with his hands down, he nodded, thanked the elder Taoist priest, put on his cloud and neon clothes, and the two stepped over one after another The threshold of the independent house.

The Taoist priest inside the door looked up at Su Wu and Yun Nishang, and his eyes stayed on Yun Nishang for a while.

——The Taoist priests here are closer to the fireworks of the world, and the practice of self-cultivation seems to be not as good as the Taoist priests of Yuzhu Temple, and they are easily dazzled by the beauties.

"Mr. Su, Miss Yun, please follow me."

The Taoist guarding the altar lowered his eyebrows, greeted Su Wu and the two, then turned and walked towards the main hall at the end of the courtyard.

In the hall,
From time to time, the sound of knocking copper was exhausted.

The Taoist led Su Wu and the two into the main hall of the 'Wanfa Zongtan'.

Once inside the hall,
Su Wu saw the statues of the Sanqing gods,
Under the Sanqing gods are the statues of the four emperors.

The "five elders" and "three officials" are enshrined on the left and right sides respectively.

In the middle of the main hall, there is a long altar.

On the altar table, there are portraits of the patriarchs of the past dynasties, arranged in layers, like a forest of scrolls and scrolls.

Under the layers of portraits, on the altar table, except for the golden lamps, incense candles and copper incense burners on both sides,
There are also various instruments arranged in sequence on the altar.

But there are: Dharma seal, kaogui stick, dharma sword, wat board, cloud pan, flag, chime, dust whisk and many other dharma tools.

This is the 'Wanfa Zongtan'.

On the side of the altar, a Taoist priest with long hair and black beard, wearing a purple cassock, was standing. When he saw Su Wu walking into the main hall with Yun Nishang, a smile appeared on Fang's face, He opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Su, please write your name and horoscope in hand in front of the Wanfazong altar, and I will burn incense for you to request a form and report to the ancestors of the past generations."

Su Wu nodded, walked closer,

Standing behind the altar.

He looked up and saw many portraits of Taoist patriarchs and gods.

The artistic techniques of these portraits are not superb, just like many clay statues in this world, they seem to be poured out of the same mold, giving people a rough feeling.

Absolutely not like the statues of gods and demons that Su Wu saw in the Mizangyu Temple. They are meticulous in depicting every detail, and they are so lifelike. He was immediately taken away by it, giving birth to all kinds of fearful thoughts.

but,

Now Su Wu stood in front of the altar,
But in a trance, there is a feeling of "many statues in the hall, many patriarchs on the table, and portraits of gods have opened their eyes, looking at me eeriely"!
This feeling only existed for a moment, and then quickly faded away.

Su Wu looked up at those mud tires again,

They still feel crudely made, like mud tires poured out of a mold.

The craftsmen painted them at will and sent them to various palaces and temples.

He lowered his head, picked up the vermilion pen on the altar,
Slowly write your own name, surname, and date of birth on the yellow talisman.

At the same time, the energy between the eyebrows quietly spilled out, covering the space.

No abnormalities were found.

——Since he got acquainted with the old god man, he learned from the other party that "Li Gui sometimes does not necessarily emit a strange rhyme, but also diffuses an aura that cannot be perceived by people who have a 'mind eye', and it is impossible to guard against." After the conversation, Su Wu also felt that it was not safe for him to rely on mental energy to detect whether there were any strange methods around him.

But most of the current Daoist inheritance is cut off,
Wei Suhe, the abbot of Yuzhu Temple, has mastered the "eye of the sky",
But he was able to cultivate the 'Sky Eye', but it was by mistake, he had no experience to pass on to Su Wu.

Su Wu can only temporarily use his mental energy to carefully screen the environment and check for any strange things around him.

I didn't realize that there was something abnormal here in the Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar.

But Su Wu couldn't be completely sure that there was nothing abnormal here.

At the moment he is in front of the Daomen Dharma altar,

It is also not easy to take out the "Fa Gua" of Duan Gongmai and perform some divination.

——'Fake God' Quan Zhuo, after experiencing what happened that night in Jiang's family, he completely abandoned the idea of ​​defrauding money by relying on his status as a god, and sold all kinds of magic tools handed down from his ancestors to Su Wu .

Su Wu paid for all the instruments,
It was divided into half with the old god man again.

As a result, he got a pair of ox horns, a master knife, a master halberd, a command flag, a copper incense burner and so on.

In order to reward Su Wu for his generosity, the old man gave Su Wu a pair of armored horses, so that he could write the matter on the armored horse and burn it when he encountered difficulties.

……

"I will burn incense here to pay my respects.

Later, Mr. Su needs to observe carefully to see if any of the 280 four patriarch statues enshrined on the altar is shaking,

——Which one shakes, Mr. Su can invite the corresponding patriarch to his altar. "The great altar-protecting mage in purple went to Su Wu's side and picked up the yellow talisman that Su Wu had written.

Su Wu heard the words and nodded in agreement.

When he was in Yuzhu Temple, he had never experienced such a formality.

At that time, Wei Suhe ordered him to invite all the portraits of the patriarchs to the "Five Thunder Altar". Invite to the Dharma altar, but I didn’t know that I still need to burn incense to ask for a memorial, and report to the ancestors of the past generations. After getting permission,
Only then can the patriarch be invited to the altar he set up.

of course,

It is also possible that the Sihan Tianshi Mansion did not believe that Su Wuzhen was a god who was granted the real talisman.

However, due to his status as a folklore scholar of the Bureau of Family Affairs, he dared not refuse his request.
So I used this method to fool Su Wu,

If there is no shaking of the portrait at that time, the Grand Master Protecting the Altar will have a reason to refuse Su Wu's request to summon the Wanfa Zongtan.

Su Wu remained calm and watched the changes quietly.

After the altar protector instructed Su Wu, the Taoist priests guarding both sides of the altar said: "You should also write it down later, and see if any of the scrolls shake!"

"Yes." Both priests nodded in agreement.

After that, Nai saw the altar master lit the yellow talisman on the golden lamp and incense, burned it to ashes, and then formed a seal with his hands, lowered his head, put his sword fingers between his eyebrows, moved his lips, and began to mutter.

The speed of his chanting is extremely fast, even with Su Wu's hearing ability, it is difficult to hear what he is chanting clearly.

As the altar master recited the scriptures,
on the altar,
Among the scrolls of the ancestors that Su Wu paid close attention to, there were actually more than ten scrolls, all trembling as if they were blown by the wind!
They keep shaking,

The adjacent painting scrolls next to each other were also rubbed together to make a 'rustle, rustle' sound!

Su Wu raised his eyebrows slightly, he didn't expect the scroll to move.

The few Taoist priests guarding both sides of the altar apparently rarely saw this kind of situation. Both of them looked at each other in surprise, and then hurriedly raised their eyes to remember which patriarchs were depicted on the trembling scrolls.

The paper rolls rubbed against each other, and the 'rustling' sound resounded continuously in the Hall of Silence.

The altar protector, who was reciting scriptures, couldn't help raising his head slightly, opened his eyes, and saw the scrolls that were shaking all the time.

He also looked surprised,

——He really had the intention of not wanting Su Wu to call the Wanfa Zongtan,
Deliberately following the old etiquette to burn incense and ask for a memorial ceremony, he was sure that there would be no supernatural phenomena on the statue of the patriarch on the altar. In this way, the folklore scholar from the Clan Affairs Bureau's desire to invite the altar could only be in vain.

The Great Master Protecting the Altar can shift the responsibility to the ancestors of Zhengyi in the past.

——It was the patriarch who did not agree to confer on Su Wu to summon the Ten Thousand Laws Zongtan, which has nothing to do with the current Tianshi Mansion.

however,
What he didn't expect was that the portraits of the ancestors enshrined on the altar began to tremble as recorded in the old classics!

The old Yifan is actually true?
really useful? !
But I tried to teach many Taoist disciples to the altar with the old etiquette, why didn't I succeed?In the end, it was changed to the current general Yifan!
From this point of view, there is no problem with the old manners.

Is there a problem with people? !

Thoughts swirled in the mind of the Great Master Protecting the Altar, and he stopped chanting sutras for a while.

Even if he stops chanting,
The shaking of more than ten scrolls on the altar has not stopped.

He turned his head and glanced at Su Wu cautiously.

——Since the reconstruction of the Tianshi Mansion, there have been tens of thousands of disciples who have passed on the scriptures and altars according to the rituals stipulated by the Bureau of Religious Affairs. Several generations of altar protectors in the middle have tried to use the old rituals to confer altars to their disciples, but in the end As a result, no one succeeded.

There are no less than a thousand of these people.

Compared with thousands of Taoist priests and a folklorist of the Bureau of Religious Affairs,
Obviously, the latter is more likely to have a 'problem'.

Thinking of this, the Great Master Protecting the Altar felt a little more at ease.

He simply stopped reciting the scriptures altogether,

Right as if I have already recited the entire scriptures stipulated by Yifan.

Picking up a stick of incense, the Great Master Protecting the Altar handed it to Su Wu, and said with a pleasant smile: "Fellow Daoist, please burn incense and offer it to the ancestors of the past generations to show your heart, and then you will be able to summon the authority of the Wanfa Zongtan. "

"it is good."

Su Wu nodded,

I burned the stick of incense around the golden lamp candle,
The head of the incense is red, but there is no open flame.

He took the stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner.

Respectfully and respectfully Jishou saluted.

At the moment when he bowed his head and saluted, the "mind" flowed down from the brow chakra, and it was seen under the "Sungong Chidan Great Dharma Master Treasure" between the "Tianguan Chakra" and the "Heart Chakra",
A Tai Chi pattern suddenly appeared,
Around the Taiji Yin-Yang Fish Picture, four talismans emerged—Su Wu had never cultivated talismans, but now he recognized them immediately. The meaning of the four talismans is exactly the 'Wanfa Zongtan'!
