Chapter 108: Formal Apprenticeship

Chen Fan looked at Chen Yulou with tears streaming down his face. It was as if he had appeared before his eyes when he was defeated at Pingshan. He was the same person in the same place, but in a different time and in a different world. Chen Fan believed that his future life would be different.

It has changed. From today on, Chen Yulou, the leader of Xiling, will no longer appear in the world. Instead, there will be a disciple of Tiandao Sect, Chen Yulou.

Realizing that Chen Fan was looking at him, Chen Yulou quickly wiped away his tears and looked a little embarrassed at Chen Fan. The most surprising thing was that he even blushed.

"Yulu, there is no need to be embarrassed. Men don't shed tears easily. It's just that they haven't reached the point of sadness. It doesn't matter if you shed a few tears to say goodbye to your relatives. No one will laugh at you." Chen Fan didn't want to hit him, so he just

Find reasons to excuse him.

"Yes, Master, I understand, but I won't cry again in the future." Although he has not officially become a master yet, the title of master and apprentice has been determined, so Chen Yulou still calls him Master Chen Fan, and he is very proud of it.

"Justify" yourself.

"Hahaha", seeing Xiao Chen Yulou's performance, Chen Fan felt an inexplicable joy, so he laughed happily.

Although Chen Yulou didn't know what the master was laughing at, his face turned even redder.

When Chen Fan saw it, he realized that Chen Yulou had such a good reputation when he was a child. It seemed that he would need more education in this aspect in the future.

Chen Yulou didn't know how much "frustration education" his two blushes would bring to him in the future. If he knew, he might not be like this even if he was beaten to death. Of course, these are things in the future.

Already.

"Yulou, are you afraid of heights?"

"Gao, I'm not afraid." Chen Yulou didn't know why Chen Fan asked, but he still answered firmly.

"That's good, let's go." After saying that, Chen Fan hugged Chen Yulou and jumped into the air. He jumped several feet high. When he reached the highest point and started to fall, Yuji had already arrived at Chen Yulou.

At Fan's feet.

Chen Yulou was suddenly held by Chen Fan and "flyed up." He was so frightened that he closed his eyes and screamed. After he felt "feet on the ground", he slowly opened his eyes, but what he saw in front of him was shocking.

Without him, they were actually flying.

Chen Yulou will never forget this day in his life. This is the first time in his life that he "flyed". Although it was not with his own power, he still flew up. After getting used to it for a while, he fell in love with this feeling.

It's just that the time was a little too short. After a while, the master took him down.

Everything in front of him refreshed his understanding again. There was nothing on the ground just now, but in the blink of an eye, they appeared in a fairyland.

Chen Fan took him to the mountain gate at the foot of the mountain in order to let him know about the mountain gate.

Chen Yulou looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him with a look of disbelief. As the master walked along, there were strange flowers and plants everywhere, and occasionally there were some domesticated cranes and spiritual deer in the spiritual animal garden. It seemed that

Today's Tianlian Mountain is even more fairy-like.

"Master, have we arrived in fairyland?" Xiao Chen Yulou could only use his vocabulary to describe everything he saw.

"Hahaha, Yulou, this is where our mountain gate is, and you will live here in the future." Chen Fan looked at the confused little Chen Yulou, and smiled unkindly and introduced him to Tianlian Mountain.

Condition.

"I live here too, my God, it's great." Xiao Chen Yulou jumped up happily. Chen Fan looked at his child-like behavior and felt that this was how he should behave at this time. He already had

You are a "little antique" disciple, but don't let another "little serious" disciple appear.

If Chen Xiu knew that his master thought of him in his heart, he doesn't know whether he would "deceive his master and destroy his ancestors." (Of course, given his character, he probably wouldn't.)

Because he had received the letter from Yamashita a long time ago, when Chen Fan brought Chen Yulou to the Tiandao Palace, everyone in the Tiandao Sect except the disciples on duty had already arrived.

Although there are more than twenty people, which is much more than before, in the magnificent Tiandao Palace, everyone still looks a bit small. Because it is a formal occasion, everyone is dressed up to attend. Everyone, no matter what you usually wear,

Today, everyone is wearing Taoist robes.

Chen Fan looked at the "colorful" Taoist robes and frowned a little. Originally, Maoshan's Taoist robes were apricot yellow, but Chen Fan found them ugly, so his family's Taoist robes were all silver-white. Now that all the disciples are here, Chen Fan

Fancai discovered that there were actually gray and blue Taoist robes, which looked messy. Chen Fan decided that he must unify the Taoist robes of the sect in the future.

Chen Fan led Chen Yulou to the center of the hall, "Fellow disciples, today I will accept Chen Yulou as my disciple, so I ask you to come and bear witness."

"Master, am I going to have a junior brother?" Xiao Qianqian asked, looking at the "little boy" who was about the same age as herself.

Chen Fan didn't answer. Chen Xiu pulled his sister's clothes beside him, indicating that now was not the time to ask questions.

"Chen Yulou, in front of all my fellow disciples, I ask you once again whether you sincerely become my disciple." Chen Fan did not directly ask him to become my disciple, but because of the influence of later generations, he asked him again.

"Yes, master, I am willing to be your disciple." With the experience along the way, only a fool would say no, so he answered very cheerfully.

"Okay, then you can become a disciple. Junior Brother Jiale, you will preside over the ceremony." Chen Fan asked Jiale to preside over the apprenticeship ceremony.

Taoism has always paid attention to the apprenticeship ceremony and the master-disciple relationship. It is famous for its extremely strict status. If you want to become a formal disciple of the master, you must undergo repeated and comprehensive inspections by the master for several years. The purpose of the inspection is to accumulate merit by doing things in the Taoist temple.

, eliminate karmic obstacles, learn classics, and lay the foundation of merit, so that you can have the capital to enter the Tao, so that you can cultivate the Tao without demons and improve your Tao career in the future) to cultivate the merit and good fortune to enter the Tao; secondly, there are targeted "work, lessons" before and after entering the Tao.

In order to teach according to individual needs, a grand apprenticeship ceremony must be held if the conditions are met. At the apprenticeship ceremony, the "Apprenticeship Notice" must be read out in public, indicating that the apprentice is willing to worship someone as a disciple, and is determined to learn and promote the sect after entering the school.

The seniors should read out the "Sect Rules and Instructions" in public, and put forward requirements for them to abide by the law, respect the teacher, be civilized and martial, practice hard, etc. after entering the school.

A grand ceremony must also be held. First, incense tables, tributes, firecrackers, and fireworks must be prepared to worship the ancestors and ancestors of all generations. Second, the ancestors must be collectively worshiped, and the master will burn incense. Third, the disciples must bow to the master three times and nine.

With a big gift, tea, and apprenticeship sticker "apprenticeship sticker", there is a pressing ceremony inside.

In the apprenticeship ceremony, in addition to the master, there must be more than two witnesses (introducers, witnesses) before they can enter the master and become the master's entry-level disciples.

The fourth is the master's blessing and initiation (transmission, crown scarf), teaching about the teacher's inheritance, sect rules, and precepts. Generally, the Taoist precepts are the three refuges and the five precepts.

The Three Refuges and Five Precepts are the most basic precepts among the Taoist precepts. Those who first enter the Taoism (monastic or layperson) must first abide by them. The Chuzhen Precepts say: Anyone who first enters the Taishang Orthodox Dharma, whether in a Taoist palace or a layman, must first

Obey the Golden Rules of the Supreme Being, strictly abide by the precepts and regulations, worship Taoist ancestors and observe the statues, and also ask for the master's alliance certificate, write inscriptions to burn Dutian picket Wang Lingguan Tianjun, believe in and accept the three refuges precepts. The Taoist scriptures praise the three refuges and precepts, which are the foundation of heaven and earth.

The hub is the foundation of the immortals, the first door of distribution, and the first sign of building the heart. Those who hold it will have the gods of heaven and earth rejoicing, the mind, ears and eyes open, all things in awe, the six organs harmonious, the true guardians, the parents of all beings, and the human body.

Jiaotai. The three refuges are actually the five precepts of "accumulating merit and returning to the roots" ordered by Taishang Laojun.

But after all, Chen Fan and the others were not Taoist sects in the secular world, so Chen Fan and the others just asked Chen Yulou to perform three bows and nine kowtows to Chen Fan and Jiu Shu after paying homage to the ancestors of all generations.
