Chapter 114 Consecration)
After the Buddha Mother calculated the luck of the White Lotus Sect, she often sighed. It seemed that her plan would be carried out quickly, otherwise it would be not so easy for Xu Hongru to deal with the tricks except for the little Taoist priest.
Although she is the Buddha Mother of the White Lotus Sect, which is Xu Hongru's ability and taught her, as the White Lotus Sect expands, and various powers are complicated, she, the Buddha Mother, can no longer make a decision in one sentence.
Besides, after Xu Hongru returned to the villa with a box, he was frowning in his quiet room.
Today, the representative of Buddha Mother’s communication seems to be nothing, but there is no intention of paving the way for the waiter.
Although the waiter is his own personal disciple and has been very affectionate over the years, it is absolutely untolerated to take away his power in the White Lotus Sect based on this point.
After Xu Hongru had this idea, he secretly summoned several of his confidants that night and began to make arrangements secretly.
The next day, Xu Hongru ordered people to convene the main characters of the White Lotus Sect in the lobby for a meeting, as if nothing had happened.
Most of the main characters of these White Lotus Sect are Xu Hongru's disciples. To be honest, the current White Lotus Sect can reach its current scale thanks to Xu Hongru's running around and working hard over the years.
It was also because of this incident that the Buddha Mother became afraid of Xu Hongru, because the existence of Xu Hongru had significantly weakened the Buddha Mother's position among the White Lotus disciples.
Xu Hongru sat in the middle and looked at the disciple below, then coughed, and then said, "The Buddha Mother invited me to visit him yesterday and explained something."
When Xu Hongru talked about this, he looked at the waiter beside him.
The waiter was a little panicked at the look that Xu Hongru cast, because she found that Xu Hongru looked at her now, no longer as full of love as before, but a cold feeling.
But Xu Hongru didn't care what the waiter had thought. He frowned and said, "The little Taoist priest who killed the waiter's husband has returned to Xiangfu County."
When the waiter heard this, he threw all the strange feeling he had just left behind. She raised her head and asked with a cold face: "Master, please issue a decree to let the disciples go and avenge their husbands."
Xu Hongru had a fake smile on his face and shook his head and said, "That Taoist priest has some tricks. If you have made great progress in your skills, you may not be his opponent."
After hearing this, the waiter below thought that the little Taoist priest had tried a few moves with the Buddha Mother a while ago, and even the Buddha Mother did not catch him in the end. His ability was really no match for him.
Xu Hongru looked at the waiter's frustrated expression and said as if he was very concerned about her: "You don't have to be depressed. My teacher decided to go down the mountain in person to avenge you."
After hearing Xu Hongru's words, the waiter immediately became energetic and then moved. The master not only taught himself all his abilities, but also cared about himself at all times, especially this time, in order to avenge himself, he actually left the headquarters.
Xu Hongru could see clearly above, and the waiter was already grateful to him now.
This made Xu Hongru feel a little satisfied. As long as the waiter is still grateful to him, the waiter should not be unscrupulous during the period when he left.
In addition to my secret arrangements, when I come back, the teachings should not be out of my control.
Xu Hongru breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said to the waiter: "You are the most qualified and skilled among my disciples. After I went down the mountain this time, the affairs of the headquarters will be temporarily handed over to you. Do you think?"
After hearing this, the waiter was shocked, and then she shook her head like a wave drum, "No, the senior brothers have been following the master for the longest time and are more familiar with the things in the teaching. If the master is not there, there should be several senior brothers in charge of the major events in the teaching."
"You don't have to refuse. Although your senior brothers have been with this for the longest time, their qualifications are limited and they are not enough to suppress the entire White Lotus Sect. Only you have the best qualifications and the fastest improvement in your skills. You are still safe to be in charge of the White Lotus Sect Master as your teacher."
After hearing the master Yili's insistence, he reluctantly accepted it, but he made up his mind to manage the White Lotus Sect well and get him a compliment when the master comes back.
After lunch, Xu Hongru changed his clothes and said goodbye to his disciples, and left the Bailian Sect alone, heading west to Xiangfu County, Henan.
The last time the Buddha Mother went to ask Yang Heng for trouble, it was because he used the clone technique to wrap up the faith of Emperor Guan, so he was quick and he arrived in Xiangfu County in just a moment.
But this time Xu Hongru went there with his true body, and he did not have the ability to fly the clouds and mists, especially during this day. If he used his supernatural powers to transform into dragons and other objects, and was found out by cultivators or officials from all over the country, it would be no good.
Because the White Lotus Sect is now powerful, the government has already set its sights on them. The main reason for his sect is that he dares to be so unscrupulous. I am afraid that before he returns to the White Lotus Sect, he will be surrounded and annihilated by the government's enthronement halfway.
Therefore, during the day, Xu Hongru could only walk forward step by step with his feet on the ground. When it was getting late, he had a supper in a small roadside shop.
After dinner, Xu Hongru took advantage of the night to cut a crane, and threw it in the air. The paper crane floated in the sky and turned into a real crane and landed in front of Xu Hongru.
Xu Hongru touched the crane's head, smiled slightly, and then stepped on the crane's back.
The crane roared softly, then flapped its wings and flew into the sky, and soon disappeared.
Not to mention Xu Hongru came to cause trouble for Yang Heng, but after Yang Heng returned to Xiangfu County, he immediately began to prepare for the consecration ceremony of the founding masters of the Three Qing Dynasties.
His Taoist temple has been built for a while, and the statue of the Sanqing Patriarch has long been placed in the hall. During this period, some believers from the county came to burn incense and bow down.
However, the statues of the Three Pure Land Masters have not been lit before, and their dim spirituality is probably not enough to bless these believers. Therefore, Yang Heng thought of holding a grand consecration ceremony, and he would like to ask the spirituality of the Three Pure Land Masters to stay here.
As for why Yang Heng had to consecrate the ancestor of the Three Qing Dynasties, there was also a reason.
If consecration in modern times is mostly a program and has no practical effect, but in this other world where gods and ghosts appear, if you do not consecrate the statue of the gods, then you may not know whether it is a god or a ghost in the end.
Because the corresponding true spirit is not invited to enter the statue, the statue will be easily invaded by the spirits outside, causing you to worship it to be a god or a ghost.
Moreover, because the statue of the Sanqing Ancestor was not consecrated during this period, countless people came to worship nearby, and the troubles were not good enough, they were already worried about the mountain spirits and ghosts.
In order to reduce the trouble, Yang Heng decided to consecrate the ancestor of the Three Qing Dynasty as soon as possible and let the ancestor's divine light come here.
The day before the consecration ceremony, Yang Heng purchased a batch of cinnabar, white hyacinth, golden rooster (rooster), new brushes, dough cloth, mirrors, etc. from the county.
Because Erya has a very good reputation among the residents nearby and her promotion everywhere, on the day of the consecration ceremony, there were hundreds of people surrounding them in front of the Taoist temple gate, preparing to watch the ceremony during the consecration ceremony.
On this day, Yang Heng and Erya each wore brand new Taoist robes, and then came to the Taoist temple gate to salute the villagers constantly, thanking these villagers for coming to support them.
After that, Zhao Kong, who came to help, lit up firecrackers. Amid the sound of firecrackers, Yang Heng took off the red cloth covering the plaque of the Taoist temple.
Then the three words "Climbing the Sky View" were presented to the villagers who came to watch the ceremony.
That's right, Yang Heng is too lazy to even afford a name now, so he directly added the name of the Heavenly Temple to the new Taoist temple.
Next, the gate of the new Heavenly Temple opened wide, and Yang Heng led all the villagers in.
After entering the gate of the Dingtian Temple, the villagers stood quietly in the yard, and the following ceremony was based on Yang Heng.
Although this is the first time that Yang Heng presided over the consecration ceremony, he has already done his homework.
Yang Heng first started chanting scriptures in the hall. Yang Heng recited three sutras, first of all the Tao Te Ching, then the Yuanshi Tianzun Baogao and Lingbao Saving Sutra.
After reading the scriptures, Yang Heng stood up and took the newly bought brush and lit cinnabar and other objects. Then he gently put the altar from the side and began to lift the surface of the statue with new cotton cloth to the three heavenly masters in turn. The new brush dipped in the mixed liquid of cinnabar, white hyacinth, golden rooster and other liquid to point out the eyes of the statue (also a little ear, nose, mouth, hands and feet, indicating enlightenment);
Next, Yang Heng used a mirror to reflect the sunlight outside the hall onto the eyes of the statue, so as to use the divine light of the sun to enable the statue to see through the world and enable the new statue to receive the sensing from the gods of heaven to obtain the life of God.
After that, Yang Heng continued to recite scriptures. This time, while Yang Heng was reciting scriptures, three eyes suddenly popped from the depths of the universe into the Sanqing Hall in the endless dimensions in the sky.
As the eyes were gaze, three spiritual lights floated from the sky and fell on the statue of the Sanqing Patriarch. Then, mysterious changes occurred around the statue of the Sanqing Patriarch, and endless rules appeared on the statue.
Even the Tao of the other world began to automatically give in when encountering such a look.
This has formed a strange cave heaven around the statues of the Three Pure Ones. Within this range, the heavenly way of another world can no longer control everything in time and space. It has handed over the authority to the masters of these three statues.
However, the heavenly way in another world is not easy to mess with. Although the power of the Three Pure Ones is huge, the heavenly way in another world only gives in a little, and there will be endless rules of voids, and begin to block all spaces near the Sandingtian Temple.
