On September 9th, the sun becomes extremely yang and wanes.
Rongcheng, Fusang Mountain.
The annual crowning ceremony of the Zhang family is being held in an orderly manner.
Different from the past, because Zhang's direct lineage has a crowning crown, many members of the aristocratic family were invited to attend the crowning ceremony this year.
The Zhang family of Nangong in Rongcheng alone invited more than ten first-class families and four or five top aristocratic families to participate.
The attendees were all princes or giants from all walks of life.
In order to ensure the successful completion of the ceremony, Nangong Mansion mobilized five thousand Red Armor troops to guard the entire Fusang Mountain.
The momentum is so great that it has become the most watched event in Bashu.
On September 9th, on Fusang Mountain, although the distinguished guests from all walks of life had not entered the venue, the Longzhong ceremony had already begun.
The young people who spent the night communicating with the Fuso Sacred Tree have gathered together and are preparing to be crowned.
But by midnight, the teenagers had already arrived in the quiet room with the master of ceremonies, waiting for the ceremony to begin.
The site was full of busy servants, checking the site everywhere to eliminate hidden dangers and flaws.
The young people waiting to be crowned chatted about the interesting stories and customs of their parents.
Hearing the sound of golden gongs outside, Fang, under the greeting of the master of ceremonies, arranged their crowns and uniforms, lined up in order, and prepared to receive the crown from the head of the direct lineage of the Zhang family.
The red carpet with red edges and black edges spreads from the quiet room to the crowning stage. It is a total of 999 feet and 9 inches.
On both sides of the carpet, every three steps, there is a Red Armor Army guard. Beyond, there is a viewing area as long as the carpet.
When the young people came out, it was already densely packed with guests.
Each seat represents a family representative, and countless family flags roar in the wind.
At a glance, Zhang Lin could tell that there were the Chen family in Luoshui, the Kong family in Qilu, and the Zhou family in Taishan.
Zhang Lin and three other direct descendants of the Zhang family walked at the front, heading towards the crowning platform.
Seats have already been arranged on the stage. At that time, the head of the direct lineage of the Zhang family will lead the elders of each lineage to crown them.
Along with ancient music and dance, the shamans are dancing on the crowning stage to offer sacrifices to heaven.
The chief emcee said some polite words of thanks to all the guests on the stage.
At an auspicious time, the young men who are about to be crowned will just take their places.
"Today, God bless the Zhang family, and one hundred and thirty-four young people of our clan have grown up. I, Zhang, pray to heaven and earth here, and in the witness of heaven and earth, crown and bind the children with gifts.
May the heaven bless us, may our clan be strong day by day and prosper at night, to protect the Tao, eliminate demons, slay demons, help the common people, and bless the world.
Younger generations of our clan, you should take the world as your responsibility.
To benefit the common people and repay God's blessing.
There is righteousness in heaven and earth, and you should act accordingly..."
Zhang Qi, the contemporary patriarch of the direct lineage, wore a shamanistic mask. After offering sacrifices to God, he admonished the hundreds of young men who were about to be crowned.
The teenagers waited for Zhang Qi to finish speaking, then saluted collectively and said: "I will obey the patriarch's teachings!"
Zhang Qi nodded and said to the clan elders who had already prepared: "The auspicious time has come, crown me!"
As Zhang Qi spoke, the clan elders who had been waiting for a long time, together with the maids holding crowns in their hands, each walked to the young man in charge of them and crowned him.
"Later, be smarter!"
The person who crowned Zhang Lin was the head of the Zhang clan in Beichuan. In terms of seniority, he and Zhang Xi were cousins.
After he crowned Zhang Lin, he patted his shoulder and said something incomprehensible.
Zhang Lin was surprised when he heard this and turned to look to the side, where he saw Zhang Wei, who was crowning a descendant of the Zhang family from Zhongnan.
Feeling Zhang Lin's gaze, he glanced at Zhang Lin, smiled and nodded.
Zhang Lin was looking at the other boys, the crowned boys at the Jintai level, and he obviously got the hint.
He was confused in his heart, but he still nodded slightly.
"It's nothing! It's just ordinary!"
On the viewing platform, some children from aristocratic families murmured. Apparently Zhang's coronation ceremony, which he had always been famous for, was nothing to them.
Of course, these are the children of top aristocratic families.
Those children from aristocratic families who were lucky enough to be qualified to enter the arena were all envious.
Look at the high platform, how many families who only know his name came to watch the ceremony.
For example, Liu He saw that the Lin family, who was married to the Zhang family, and General Hengjiang, the first family in Jiangbei whose patriarch, Lin Zhen, was in the third rank, could only sit on the second viewing platform.
On the main stage, the people she knew well were the Kong family of Qilu, the Yang family of Luoyi, the Wang family of Langya, the Cui family of Qinghe, etc.
There is also the fluttering Dali royal family, representing the Ji family's phoenix flag.
The most important thing is the ninety-nine-foot tall hibiscus sacred tree that covers the sky and the sun.
It is said that that will be the place where the Zhang boys will climb after being crowned.
The entire Fusang Mountain is dotted with countless courtyards.
No matter how high the teenagers climb, they will have an equivalent courtyard on Fuso Mountain. They can live on the mountain for three years to get close to the Fuso sacred tree.
Cultivating under the innate spiritual cultivation is something that many people can only dream of.
Therefore, although those top aristocratic families felt dull, most of the attendees saw it with passion.
"The biggest highlight of Zhang's coronation ceremony is climbing the Fusang sacred tree."
Some people on the same viewing platform thought it was dull, so they naturally started talking about what they wanted to see.
And when I heard someone talking about it, someone asked: "Oh? What's the explanation?"
The person who spoke was a descendant of Jiangdong's Xiang family. Hearing this, he said: "Brothers, why do you pretend to be confused? Half of the reasons why you came here is to see how many of Zhang's descendants have climbed to the sixth grade in this coronation ceremony.
A ten-foot hidden dragon platform?"
For top aristocratic families like them, the bloodline is basically finalized, and they know clearly what spiritual plants and magic weapons are beneficial to them.
Fusang sacred tree, to the Zhang family, is like the mythical Dragon Transformation Pond to the dragon clan.
A descendant of the Zhang family who can climb a height of sixty feet must be one of the best in a thousand.
If he does not fall, but encounters an unexpected event like Li Ranran, the golden elixir will surely advance steadily, and the Nascent Soul can be expected.
These top aristocratic families came to watch the ceremony, naturally wanting to take this opportunity to gain a general understanding of Zhang's strength and the potential of the younger generation.
Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Although there are many marriages between top families, there is still competition.
Sometimes competition is more cruel than the battlefield.
However, there are still some dandy children in the top families. I really don’t know much about the reason why Zhang’s children climbed the Fuso Sacred Tree after being crowned.
After all, there is only one sacred hibiscus tree in the world.
Its specific utility is rarely understood.
Even the children of the Zhang family, who are not direct descendants, don't know much about it. They only know that under the Fusang sacred tree, their practice can get twice the result with half the effort.
People attending the ceremony were talking to each other.
Some are disappointed, some are dull, some are yearning, and some are excited.
After Zhang Lin and his entourage were crowned, they formally took over the letters from the clan elders and solemnly thanked them.
After the crown ceremony is completed, the performance of the calligraphy is done.
From today on, they become adults.
Will go to the battlefield, join the army, and engage in politics.
Either kill the enemy and achieve meritorious service, or govern the people and establish virtue.
Chapter completed!
