Chapter 74 Dharma Assembly

Zhang Mingli stood with a few young disciples who had just learned Taoism. They were the little Taoist boys that Zhang Wenche had mentioned before they came.Of course, they are all adults, some of them are still in college, and some of them have graduated from college.Daotong is the name of Taoist scholars before the official teaching and teaching, just like the children who took the imperial examination in the ancient Xia Kingdom, it has nothing to do with age.

It's like as long as a scholar who has passed the boy's test but has not yet passed the exam, even if he is gray-haired, he can only be called a boy student.A student of Taoism cannot be called a Taoist priest before he has been conferred or precepted (Quanzhen), but can only be called a Taoist boy.Zhang Mingli was slightly older than them, but his age was limited. In addition, he was good at communication, so he quickly got acquainted with them.

Since the Fa conference is tomorrow, Cao Qiulan couldn't chat with his brothers for too long, so he had to go back early to prepare.Although Cao Qiulan still remembered all the rituals of the speech meeting, he hadn't practiced them much after all, so he practiced the whole set of rituals after he went back.In addition, there are scriptures and mantras that will be used in the Fa conference, and I have also found out and recited them several times.

In addition, Cao Qiulan had to fast before the puja.Generally speaking, orthodox Taoist priests do not need to be vegetarian, but there are exceptions. Before the puja, the presiding Dharma masters and scripture teachers must fast. This is vegetarianism, and of course they cannot eat five meats.The last thing is the cassock. Cao Qiulan asked the black cat to find out his cassock and chaohu.Although cassocks are necessary for Taoist priests, Cao Qiulan has not used them for a long time.

The black cat first took out the imperial wat, squatted on the table, wagged its tail slightly, and asked happily: "Which cassock do you want?" It is also called "Tianxian Cave Clothes". After wearing the vestments, Cao Qiulan really has a more fairy-like, solemn and solemn feeling than usual, and it is a different kind of beauty than usual.

If Cao Qiulan said it himself, he prefers the purple one.But he is not a master of high-level skills, and he may not wear purple if he is a master of high-level skills. It is too high-profile for him to wear purple, so he thought for a while and said: "Let's just wear the blue one." Blue is better, it is not conspicuous!

Cao Qiulan changed into the cassock and tried it on. Although he hadn't worn it for a long time, his figure had not changed, and naturally it would not be unfit.Zhang Mingli looked at Cao Qiulan and couldn't help asking: "Master, is the cassock also a magic weapon inherited from the master?"

When Cao Qiulan heard this, she laughed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course the cassock is custom-made, otherwise how could it fit."

It's not a comprehension novel, the cassock will automatically change in size according to the wearer's figure, it doesn't exist.

The dharma meeting started at [-]:[-] a.m. the next day, and Gao Gong, the Master of the Five Thunders, was Zhang Naisheng, the eldest son of Zhang Xunge.The guardian with Cao Qiulan is Cao Yan who went to Bidie City with Zhang Wenche before. Not only does he have the same surname as Cao Qiulan, but his experience is actually somewhat similar to Cao Qiulan's.Cao Qiulan was abandoned since she was a child. Cao Yan's experience cannot be called abandonment, but it is not far behind.

Cao Yan's family is in Shangqing Town, a small town under Longhu Mountain. Not long after he was born, his family changed. After his parents divorced and remarried, no one wanted to care about him. It can be seen from his name that his parents treat He's bored.After the remarriage, his parents all left Shangqing Town to live in big cities outside, while Cao Yan was left to his grandparents to take care of him, and his life was barely passable.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. When Cao Yan was two years old, his grandparents both passed away due to illness, and he lost his support ever since.

Cao Yan's father went home for the funeral, but he was unwilling to take Cao Yan away to take care of him, because he had another child with his new wife, and he didn't want the son of his disgusted ex-wife to appear in front of him.And Cao Yan's biological mother was also unwilling to take care of him, so he was left in the old house in Shangqing Town, relying on the care of his neighbors to survive.

Just at that time, Zhang Wenche went to see a doctor near Cao Yan's house to his neighbors. When he was young, he would often do such voluntary rounds. After hearing about Cao Yan's affairs, he took him back to Tianshi Mansion to raise him.Who knew that Cao Yan would be quite talented in learning Taoism after he grew up, so Zhang Wenche took him into his sect and taught him to become a monk.Although Cao Yan's surname is Cao, he is actually no different from the Zhang family.

In addition to the three of them, there were also four scripture teachers who participated in the ceremony, and they were also brothers of Cao Qiulan's generation. In addition, there was also a Taoist band, and deacons who were in charge of preparing incense and watches.After a game, at least double digits are needed.

Zhang Mingli also went, of course he went to watch the ceremony like other believers.When he entered the Hall of Heavenly Masters, before Cao Qiulan and the others came, the members of the Dao Orchestra had already prepared, and a Taoist priest was doing some preparatory work before the ceremony, placing fragrant flowers, tribute fruits and the like.

However, Zhang Mingli did not wait too long, and soon the time came. With the sound of the bell, the scene fell silent.

Then the Taoist Orchestra began to play "Small Open Door". Zhang Mingli took a look and saw that the Taoist Orchestra had a very rich variety of instruments.

In addition to the common erhu, drum, flute, and pipa, there are also dulcimer, sheng, ruan, etc. These rare instruments, if Zhang Mingli hadn't learned from Cao Qiulan for a period of time, he might not know him when he saw him.Then, he inexplicably remembered, "I have a guest, play the zither and the sheng."

There are several young Taoist priests in the Taoist Orchestra. Zhang Mingli also met with Cao Qiulan yesterday. He thinks he probably understands why one needs to learn music before learning Taoism. Music is really an indispensable part of Taoist culture. Yue God is also pleasing to man.

Before he could think about anything else, the mages lined up and came in from the door. In front were four scripture masters, who lined up in two rows holding wats in their hands, followed by Cao Qiulan and Cao Yan. Holding Chaohu in their hands, they entered side by side.

At this time, Cao Qiulan kept his eyes straight, and his young and handsome face had a serious expression, with a kind of solemnity that he didn't usually have.There are quite a few believers who came to participate in the Dharma meeting today. The kneeling mats placed in the hall are already full of people, and there are even some people watching from outside the hall.

However, Cao Qiulan didn't seem to know how to write the word "stage fright", so she walked smoothly to the left and stood in front of her seat, waiting for Zhang Naisheng, who was in charge of Gaogong, to take her place. The statues worshiped each other, and the ceremony officially began.

The deacons (the deacons here refer to the three mages and scripture masters) led the believers to perform three salutes and nine kowtows to the god statue. Although it is a common etiquette, in such an atmosphere, everyone present is solemn stand up.After the ceremony, Zhang Naisheng got up and went to the altar to offer incense.Cao Qiulan was focused, and when Zhang Naisheng returned to his throne, he and Cao Yan walked to the altar at the same time.

Cao Qiulan's fair and slender fingers and Cao Yan's fingers reached into the incense plate at the same time, he lightly picked up a piece of incense and passed it over the chao wat, silently recited the god's title in his heart, and repeated this three times.The black cat didn't enter the temple, he jumped onto the big tree next to it, and watched Cao Qiulan through the open gate of the temple.Although the distance is a little far, but with the eyesight of a black cat, it is enough to see all the details clearly.

While others were solemnly worshiping God, what the black cat thought was: Lanlan's hands are really white!So lovely!Indeed, Cao Qiulan's fair fingers looked even more white and jade-like under the contrast of the red incense slices and the white chao wat.Moreover, this kind of Cao Qiulan has never been seen by the black cat. He is not as lazy as usual, nor is he fierce when he is angry. He is more dignified and stable than when he is serving the statue.

After returning to the throne for three times, Cao Qiulan opened her red lips lightly, and led all the deacons to chant the clarification rhyme and welcome the master's praise, "The devil king puts his hands down, guard my house..." Cao Qiulan's voice was clear and clear, even when all the mages chanted together, It is also very recognizable.The subsequent scientific procedures went smoothly, and soon it was time for Cao Qiulan's most worried about confession.

The Taoist priest in charge brought Cao Qiulan the form written in yellow characters. The content of the form was actually fixed. Although there were occasional minor changes, it was generally the same, and Cao Qiulan basically memorized it.He glanced at the list of believers, but did not see any strange names for the time being.But now is not the time to think about this, Cao Qiulan quickly concentrated on thinking about it.

Zhang Naisheng led all the deacons and believers to bow down on the kneeling mat. Cao Qiulan was kneeling. He held the chao wat and put the inscription on the chao wat. Ambassador Qing Wulei and Cao Qiulan, who led Lei Ting's various departments and courts, bowed down and worshiped the above words, and the minister said that the law of heaven is selfless... Cao Qiulan, a servant of the three-day sect, bowed down and kowtowed to express his guilt, and then bowed down to the above words."

Cao Qiulan spent more than ten minutes reading the content of the form, plus the long list of believers.This is also thanks to the fact that there are no uncommon characters or polyphonic characters among the believers this time. After all, it is impossible to phoneticize the table text. If you don’t know it, you can only ask the deacon priest next to it.

That's right, when Cao Qiulan was reading the scriptures, a deacon Taoist priest followed him all the time, in order to remind Cao Qiulan when he couldn't recognize the words or mispronounced them.After all, this is for God to listen to. It is absolutely impossible to pronounce someone’s name wrong. If you make a mistake, you must read it again to ensure that the god hears the corresponding name of this person, so as not to confuse the person.

Cao Qiulan was lucky this time, and she read it smoothly, saving her idol burden.When he was in the Tianshi Mansion, he once played Dao music for the Fa Conference. In addition to the piano and guqin, he can also play the dulcimer.Almost every time, I can see the brother who is in charge of the speech gets stuck here, and almost can't read it smoothly. It can be said to be very tragic. There are always people whose names challenge human cognition.

The following ceremonies are mainly Zhang Naisheng's business, what Cao Qiulan has to do is to guide the singing and cooperation when necessary.The hour-long ceremony came to an end soon. Cao Qiulan sang the praises of Yaotai loudly, "Go out of the jade hall from the gate of heaven, and all the officials go down the golden steps..." At the same time, he followed behind Cao Yan, led by Zhang Naisheng Walk around the altar with the devotees.

This is called Zhuan Tianzun in Taoist rituals. For ordinary believers, Zhuan Tianzun has the effect of keeping fit and curing diseases, while for those who practice Taoism, it can open the whole body's acupoints and enhance the effect of "qi". Judging the so-called "people's hearts are scattered, one thought is pure, the desire for the supreme way, the masses turn to heaven" is exactly what it means.At this point, the Fa conference is basically over.

The author has something to say:

I like Taoist puja very much, it feels very ritual!Very solemn feeling!

"Clarifying Rhyme" The demon king tied his hands and guarded my house.The filth dissipates, and the Dao Qi remains forever.Changqing Changjing Tianzun.

"Welcome Master's Praise" Wan Wan Shenzhou land, majestic and wonderful altars, cranes ride on phoenixes and guests, breathing down the fairy class.Jin Zhen taught Tianzun.

"Yaotai Praise" Chaoba Tianmen leaves Yutang, all the officials go down the golden steps, look up at the gods and hang down, please come back in Yuan Dynasty, the emperor's altar is quiet and quiet.

The left servant of the Taiji Palace, Xianqing Wulei Ambassador, and the leader of Lei Ting's various divisions - this is Lan Lan's official position, you can understand that he is an official in the Heavenly Court, and he is a fourth-rank official.
