Chapter 906 Fighting to pray for rain! The old Taoist priest wants to save the people of the city
Pray for rain!
Da da da——
One carriage after another left Fucheng, escorted by Yamen officials, heading towards the Zhenyan Altar.
Listening to the beating of gongs and drums outside the carriage, and the hustle and bustle of people, the old Taoist priest opened the curtain, and the streets were crowded with people. People enthusiastically welcomed Yuxian to Jiangzhou Fucheng. The scene was more lively than a festival, and the carriage moved slowly in the crowd.
He remembered what Jin An said yesterday -
The people's will is the general trend.
Sanxian Temple used a rain-praying technique to win the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people in the city. If you think about it carefully, the hearts of the people are awesome.
The old Taoist priest lowered the curtain.
The central altar is at the pier. Before the carriage arrived at the pier, the people's shouts were heard, all welcoming the arrival of the Rain Fairy.
The straw curtain that originally surrounded the altar has been removed today, finally revealing its true appearance to the world.
It was a five-color altar built of thick logs. The five-color soil was replaced with five-color dyed cloth, and five-color flags were placed side by side above the five-color altar.
The five-color flag is an important instrument used by Taoist disciples to open an altar and is indispensable. Corresponding to the five-color flag, there is also a gossip yellow cloth desk on the five-color altar. On the table are peach wood swords and arrows.
The token, the canopy ruler, the altar wood, the compass, the copper bell, and the nectar bowl, combined with the order flag, are the nine basic instruments used by Taoists to open the altar.
The three immortals of the Three Immortals Temple stood solemnly on the five-color altar with solemn expressions. From time to time they raised their heads to look at the direction of the sun, counted the time with their fingers, and occasionally lowered their heads to chat a few words.
Master Fuyou is lean and aged, Master Fuyun is fair and gentle, Master Fuyao is tall and majestic, aged between thirty and forty, with a long beard, Taoist robe, Taoist crown, and whisk, giving people the impression of a Taoist master at a glance.
This appearance really makes people feel trustworthy.
As the officials' carriage arrived, the three real people's eyes looked over. However, when they saw two Taoist priests accompanying Mr. Fu Yin, the three real people's expressions darkened.
The three brothers looked at each other, then walked down from the five-color altar and walked towards Lord Fu Yin.
Both Jin An and the old Taoist priest were wearing Taoist robes, which was really eye-catching when they stood in the crowd. The people gathered at the pier were all buzzing about it. Today is the day of worship at Sanxian Temple to pray for rain. Why did Mr. Fu Yin invite other Taoist priests to come?
?Isn’t this a slap in the face of Sanxian Guan in public, and the disgrace of Sanxian Guan!
When Master Fuyou, Master Fuyun, and Master Fuyao walked down the five-color altar, they also heard the discussions of the people around them, and the expressions on their faces became increasingly ugly.
"Welcome to Mr. Fu Yin. Today, Mr. Fu Yin will bring you all to pray for rain for the people of our city. Mr. Fu Yin loves the people like a son and is considerate of the people. The Jade Emperor in Heaven will definitely be moved by Mr. Fu Yin's sincerity and pray for the people of Jiangzhou Prefecture.
It rains down nectar and brings blessings."
The three real people held whisks in their hands and bowed to Fu Yin and the officials. Then they pretended to have just seen Jin An and the old Taoist priest standing next to Fu Yin. They pretended to be surprised and asked: "Who are these two Taoist friends?"
Mr. Fu Yin laughed and said that the three real people were praising them ridiculously. Today it was the three real people praying for rain, and the three real people who had the hardest work were the three. After complimenting each other for a few words, Mr. Fu Yin introduced Jin An and the old Taoist priest: "These two real people are praying for rain."
The Taoist priests are Taoist priests Jin An and Chen from Wu Zang Taoist Temple. Taoist Jin An has made a lot of achievements at a young age and has done a lot of practical things for the people of Jiangzhou Prefecture. The people in the city have heard about various heroic deeds of Taoist Jin An. Three Immortals
As a local Taoist temple, why haven’t you heard of Taoist Master Jin’an?”
"I have only heard of his name before, but never seen him in person. Today is the first time that my brothers and I have met Taoist Master Jin An and Master Chen." The three real people briefly greeted Jin An and the old Taoist priest, and then talked to Mr. Fu Yin throughout the process.
, did not take another look at Jin An and the old Taoist priest, and it seemed that they did not take Jin An and the old Taoist priest seriously.
Just as Master Sanxian Guan was talking to Lord Fu Yin about the next process of praying for rain and worshiping gods, a Taoist boy who was following the Master muttered in a dissatisfied tone: "Today, one hundred thousand people in Jiangzhou Prefecture are inviting me to be your master."
Why did he bring two other Taoist priests to the scene when he went out to pray for rain? This clearly shows that he does not trust my master when he prays for rain, and deliberately embarrasses my master, making him the butt of ridicule after doing his best work. This rain is really
You shouldn’t pray.”
Although the Taoist boy muttered softly, all the officials present heard it clearly. The Fuyin frowned and looked at the Taoist boy. As a Fuyin, he had official authority, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. The official power made the Taoist boy lower his head.
Dare not speak.
Master Fuyou scolded the Taoist boys around him: "No matter how big or small, no matter how polite you are, slap yourself, and then apologize to Taoist Jin'an and Taoist Chen. If Taoist Jin'an and Taoist Chen are unwilling to forgive you, take the initiative to kneel at the door of Wu Zang Taoist Temple."
You can't afford it, wait until when Taoist Jin An and Taoist Chen are willing to forgive you and get up again."
"Master, I just think this is too unfair to Master and my two uncles. Today, is it our Three Immortals Temple that prays for rain or their Five Zang Taoist Temple? Does a little-known Wu Zang Taoist Temple know what praying for rain is?
, If the Wu Zang Taoist Temple really knew how to pray for rain, it would have solved the severe drought in Jiangzhou Prefecture long ago!" Although the Taoist boy lowered his head and did not dare to look at Master Fu Yin's sharp eyes, he continued to say stubbornly and unconvinced.
Master Fu You was furious: "Are you even saying that you don't even listen to the master's words? You want to disobey the master's orders and betray our Three Immortals Temple!"
The Taoist boy apologized to Taoist Master Jin'an and the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest who hated evil was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at the Taoist fairy tale. It was clearly the Sanxian Temple that had robbed Jin'an of rain prayers, which was no different from stealing. But when the other party said that the Five Zang Taoist Temple was the thief, the Sanxian Temple looked aggrieved.
.This skill of knocking people backwards and raking them with a rake cannot be mastered in even ten years.
But he could only hold back his anger.
Because the master-disciple pair in front of me are so good at acting, and their tricks are perfect.
The Taoist boy has already apologized and slapped his tongue, but if he persists in persisting, he will talk about it in front of everyone, saying that the Five Zang Taoist Temple bullies the small ones by being big, caressing over things with a child, and is narrow-minded.
Everyone present was not a simple-minded person. They all saw that Master Fuyou and Tao Tong were a good person and a bad person, using the mouth of their disciples to express their dissatisfaction. It was just that Master Fuyou made every appearance impeccable, which was both demeaning and demeaning.
After visiting the Five Zang Taoist Temple invited by Mr. Fu Yin, he expressed his dissatisfaction and made it difficult for people to find fault.
This Three Immortals Temple relies on itself to hold the people's hearts and minds hostage, and even the governor of Jiangzhou Prefecture dares to contradict it in a weird way. It already has some contempt for local officials.
The accompanying officials looked at each other and thought, and they finally understood why Mr. Fu Yin insisted on bringing Taoist Priest Jin'an and Taoist Chen here today. Mr. Fu Yin had long seen that Sanxian Temple had the intention of using public opinion to control the fate of the court, so he invited Taoist Priest Jin'an.
Beat the Three Immortals Temple and make the Three Immortals Temple have some scruples.
Compared with the sudden rise of the Sanxian Temple, the officials of the government are more optimistic about the Wu Zang Taoist Temple, which has slowly accumulated a reputation step by step. The contribution Jin An has made in the six months since he came to Jiangzhou Prefecture, whether it is repeatedly solving strange cases or one person
The mentality and strength shown in annihilating the animal cult are admirable.
Jin'an's use of corpse exorcism to help abducted children return home to fulfill their vows has long been spread in the yamen. This is a kind act of great benevolence and righteousness.
Wu Zang Taoist Temple, which has slowly accumulated a good reputation through little good deeds, has gained their trust. Especially since Wu Zang Taoist Temple keeps a low profile and never relies on its own merits but is domineering and self-satisfied. This character is even more valued by people.
On the other hand, Sanxian Temple, after just a few prayers for rain, began to use public opinion to coerce the government and ask the government and Sanxian Temple to pray for rain together. No matter who it was, it was forced, which always made people feel very unhappy.
What they saw and heard today made these officials instantly understand the profound intentions of Mr. Fu Yin, and they admired Mr. Fu Yin for his foresight and foresight.
Mr. Fu Yin did not choose to remain silent at this time. He spoke for Wu Zang Taoist Temple with a calm and authoritative attitude: "Sanxian Temple prays for rain for the people of Jiangzhou Prefecture. It is a good deed. Wu Zang Taoist Temple returns justice to the people, whether it is to help the yamen to correct itself."
Whether it is an unjust, false or wrongful conviction, rescuing abducted people from the animal cult, or smashing the conspiracy behind the Zhenhai Stone Beast so that the children who were captured to drive piles can see the light of day again and be buried in peace, it is also a good deed. As long as you do it for me sincerely
When the people of Jiangzhou Prefecture work for the good, no matter whether it is a big good deed or a small good deed, in the eyes of this official, they are good people who do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and I, Jiangzhou Prefecture, will never treat such people badly."
"It is precisely because the good deeds done by Wu Zang Taoist Temple in the local area are obvious to all, so I specially brought Taoist priests Jin'an and Chen Dao here today. I hope that people all over the world can learn from Wu Zang Taoist Temple and Sanxian Temple. As long as I serve the people wholeheartedly, I will not
He will be treated badly."
Master Fu Yin took the initiative to speak for the Five Zang Taoist Temple, which made the aggrieved old Taoist priest feel better.
"Master Fu Yin praised him very much." Jin An felt a little embarrassed when Master Fu Yin praised him in public.
Mr. Fu Yin solemnly said: "Everything I said today is true. The Five Zang Taoist Temple has brought blessings to one side, and the Jin'an Taoist priest has brought blessings to another side. They are blessings to the people of Jiangzhou."
"Master Fu Yin just said something right. Whether it is praying for rain or returning justice to the people, it is a kind deed. It will give people a refreshing spring breeze. The good time to worship the gods and pray for rain at the Three Immortals Temple has not yet arrived. I see that the scorching sun is above our heads and the scorching heat is
If you can't bear it, let me, the Five Zang Taoist Temple, bring coolness to the city and give you a rain to relieve the heat and refresh you."
"I remember that Sanxian Temple only prays for rain at night, but it seems that it has never prayed for rain during the day, right? Today, my Five Zang Taoist Temple has a daytime nectar drop."
Jin An chuckled and looked at Brother Fuyou.
He has never been someone who is willing to suffer losses. Don't you Sanxian Guan like to sing and harmonize? He has long noticed that Sanxian Guan can only pray for rain at night and never prays for rain during the day. Now being so clear about it is tantamount to humiliating Sanxian Guan in disguise.
If the Tao is not good, it is not as good as the Five Zang Taoist Temple. Moreover, the Sanxian Temple has to wait for good times and auspicious days before it can rain, while the Five Zang Taoist Temple does not need to wait for good times and auspicious days.
Hearing that Jin An also knew how to pray for rain, Lord Fu Yin was stunned, with an expression of astonishment on his face.
Even the other accompanying officials looked shocked and looked at Jin An in surprise.
"Taoist Master Jin'an, you... know how to pray for rain?" An official shouted in surprise.
The official's shout was heard by a circle of people around him, and more people looked over in surprise, causing a commotion.
"What do you mean? The Five Zang Taoist Temple is going to fight with the Three Immortals Temple to pray for rain!" The commotion quickly turned into a sensation. With the shouts being passed down from one to another, even the outer circle of the crowd was shocked by the news, and there was an uproar.
The name of the Wu Zang Taoist Temple is familiar to the people of Fucheng, and the name Jin'an is even more popular. When they heard that Master Fu Yin not only brought the Taoist priests of the Wu Zang Taoist Temple with him, but also asked the Wu Zang Taoist Temple and the Three Immortals Temple to fight for rain, the outside crowd
The commotion that broke out, the sound waves rising one after another, can be imagined.
People began to push, crowd, and grab high seats to pray for rain in order to witness this unheard-of fight.
Jin An nodded in the direction of the old Taoist priest: "I am not praying for rain, it is the old Taoist who is praying for rain for everyone."
Lord Fu Yin saw that Jin An was not lying. The Five Zang Taoist Temple could indeed pray for rain. He was overjoyed and laughed out loud! Jin An brought him a great surprise today. Sure enough, he was right. The Five Zang Taoist Temple brings blessings.
On the one hand, it is a blessing for the people of Jiangzhou Prefecture!
"Huh?" The old Taoist priest turned to look at Jin An.
The old Taoist priest has been getting angry every day for the sake of the Five Zang Taoist Temple, and Jin An has noticed it, so today he decided to let the old Taoist vent his grievances and anger in person.
Isn’t there a saying that a heart disease requires heart medicine?
From top to bottom, their Wu Zang Taoist Temple is not the one who suffers losses. This place must be recovered. There is no need to wait until sooner or later. It will be recovered today.
Jin An blinked at the old Taoist priest: "Old Taoist, can't you draw Erlang Zhenjun's water talisman? The Emperor Erlang Zhenjun enshrined in Wu Zang Taoist Temple is the Taoist God of Water and is the Taoist righteous god."
