Chapter 57: Granting the Capital, Mysterious Homework
The Dharma Enlightenment Hall inside Tukong-in Temple.
Song Lin stood in the center, with six people standing around him.
The man in the middle with pale face and cold temperament is Shi Yinhua, a young disciple of Taoist Jiuyou; the red-haired man on the other side is Chi Yang.
The three heroes are actually here.
At this moment, Chiyang was staring at him in disbelief.
I don't know the other two.
Everyone put on green Taoist robes and Hunyuan scarves on their heads. The Taoist robes were wide and the sleeves hung down to the ground.
This is the official robe of a Taoist priest. Because it is not easy to wear, no one usually wears it when traveling.
Song Lin also didn't expect that the teachings would be concentrated.
Directly in front of everyone is an altar. In front of the altar stand the three masters who deliver, recommend, and supervise.
The supervising Taoist priest is Jiuyou Taoist, and the ever-changing patterns between his eyebrows prove his identity.
He wore a golden Taoist robe, embroidered with the Five Elements and Bagua, hundreds of birds and beasts, and various patterns outlined with precious stones, gold and silver threads.
The gleaming golden robes make one's eyes almost go blind just by looking at them.
It's similar to Tongzi Jiangjun, but more complicated.
I won’t go into details here.
To put it simply, the process of being enshrined is to offer sacrifices to heaven, tell the gods all over the sky, and leave your name in the heaven system.
"The urn is used to examine the officials of the three realms, control the fortunes of Yuan Yuan, control the group's quality, assess the sins and blessings of the stallions, test the merits and demerits, the importance of good and evil, and record the records..."
The white-haired Taoist priest holding a magic sword was chanting something.
This man seems to be the head of the Metropolitan Academy, the second-largest figure in the Taoist temple, and a disciple of Jiuyou. He looks older than Jiuyou.
On the Dharma altar are placed the Dharma urns and official certificates of everyone.
On it is written each person's name, seniority, birth date, zodiac sign, constellation, position, etc.
Then the three masters stamped the Dutian Master's seal, the examination supervisor's seal, Huang Shenyue's seal, etc., indicating that the ceremony was almost over.
Half of the official certificate was handed over to everyone, and the other half was burned and offered as a sacrifice to heaven.
At the same time, all Taoist temples under the Taoist Gate of Nanchuan Yinshan will have their information.
Song Lin looked at the "Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Sutra" in his hand, and felt a big stone drop in his heart. After working hard for so long, it finally came to an end, and he finally changed from a Taoist boy to a Taoist priest.
Now it is Du Gong Lu, and in the future there will be Alliance Wei Lu, Wu Lei Lu and so on.
There is still a long way to go.
At this time, Song Lin noticed that the position under Fa Lu's name had changed. It used to be the 'disaster boy' who had jurisdiction over twelve people.
Today, there are one hundred and twenty officials in charge of collecting qi and eating qi in Beiyi Shangguan.
In other words, he can now summon one hundred and twenty rampant soldiers.
Plus dozens of paper figures, there are a total of two hundred laborers.
Originally, there were three thousand moon cultivators on the moon, most of whom were laborers, who performed moon cultivating every three days.
Song Lin made the rampant soldiers work day and night, so they should be able to barely maintain it.
At this time, Master Jiuyou spoke.
"First of all, congratulations to everyone."
"Thank you so much for your love."
"Ahem..." Master Jiuyou coughed several times and said again, "Taoist priests don't just enjoy themselves, they also need to complete Xuanmen exercises and accumulate merit to improve their grades."
"Although the hard requirement for promotion is cultivation, there are still levels that can be improved."
The corresponding grade of Du Gonglu is eight or nine.
Everyone has just been enthroned, and their positions are all from the ninth level. They receive eight Taoist exercises every month, a bottle of Yuhua Dan every year, and a free Taiyin Qi training.
In theory, Du Gonglu can be promoted to the eighth level and enjoy higher-level treatment. These levels can be used not only within the Taoist temple, but also within the entire Nanchuan Yinshan Shengwei Taoist sect.
It just doesn't have as many privileges as this Taoist temple.
"The Taoist priests' Yin Gong exercises in Taoist lessons should not be less than ten each year."
Taoist tasks are the tasks of Taoist temples, including refining elixirs, refining weapons, collecting materials and even subduing demons, etc.
"Of course, when Yin Gong reaches a certain level, the Taoist temple will also improve everyone's position accordingly."
In addition to the Taoist practices in Taoist temples, there are also large-scale religious rituals such as the Luotian Dajiao, the Jiao for praying for rain, the Jiao for subduing demons, etc. These are generally activities between multiple Taoist temples and are the key for Taoist priests to quickly gain fame and fortune.
These will not be described in detail.
Everyone came forward one by one to receive seals, swords, orders, flags, talismans and other small objects. They were not powerful magic weapons, but objects with spiritual power. There were bonuses for opening the altar.
The six people left immediately.
When he returned, he did not immediately resign his position in the alchemy room and concentrate on practicing in the inner sect.
Instead, he continued to stay and helped Zi Yuan refine elixirs.
…
Three days later, residence.
In the secret room, brilliant light flows, and the lunar calendar is abundant.
Song Lin sat on the moon brick like mutton fat white jade.
The taiyin osteoscope floats in front of you, clearly showing the bones and meridians.
The power of the lunar moonlight is slowly absorbed by the true energy.
After a long time, the moon brick turned into ashes.
Song Lin then opened his eyes, and a faint moonlight flashed in his eyes.
Name: Song Lin
Realm: Qi refining period
Daoxing:Twenty-three years (1/2000)
Supernatural powers: "Laoshan Five Techniques", "Guangchengzi Qigong", "Taiyin Secret Technique", "Taiping Xuanke Cleansing and Refining True Qi Technique", fire-transforming magic...
thing:……
"Practice once, and the progress will be one in two thousand, and it will take about two thousand days to reach perfection. There is still room for improvement..."
With the experience of the story world and the help of the bone mirror, the speed is dozens of times faster than others.
"However... one practice requires seven Moon Bricks. If you reach two thousand progress, you will need at least 14,000 Moon Bricks."
After obtaining this data, Song Lin now understands the importance of resources.
Refining moon bricks requires a large amount of agate, clam, gold and silver, etc.; if the quantity is large, it will be easy to be discovered.
Song Lin planned to find an excuse to take time off to travel after a while.
For the next ten days, Song Lin kept practicing Qi in reality and occasionally went to Xiuyue World to investigate.
After the last Weiyang Palace incident, the Taoist priests of Zhongmiao Sect took full control of the Han Dynasty.
The remaining five wizards seemed dead and never showed up. They only heard each other's movements outside the desert from time to time.
So the court prepared to use troops against the barbarians.
On the other hand, Taoism among the people has developed quite well.
All in all, everything is planned and power is being accumulated secretly.
Perhaps the war will begin during the next Tengu eclipse with seven stars in a row.
Apart from going up occasionally, I have been busy with reality during this period.
The progress of Qi training will increase a lot until all the monthly brick stock is consumed.
…
Residence of the Lord of Du Gongyuan, Beizhuang.
In front of the Dharma Altar in the Spiritual Palace.
Zi Yuan and Song Lin stood in front of the pool, looking at the dog-headed Taoist priest whose skin was constantly absorbing blood.
"How is Master's health?" Zi Yuan asked casually.
"The viewer has a strong body."
"Do you cough often?"
"Hmm." Song Lin didn't know why. He thought it was just a cough. How could a Taoist priest of this level care about such a cough?
Zi Yuan picked up a bottle of elixir, pulled out the cork, and poured it into the blood pool.
"To tell you the truth, Master is seriously ill and may not die soon." Zi Yuan knelt down and looked at the dog-headed Taoist priest as if he were looking at a work of art. He muttered, "I'm so confused... I don't want to choose a successor in advance."
.”
Song Lin didn't reply, and felt a wave of panic in his heart.
This place has strong soldiers and horses, Zi Yuan said these words again.
This made him feel like he was involved in a storm, and if he was not careful, he would be shattered to pieces.
To be honest, it would be better to offend Wuji.
Wow!
At this time, blood rose from the sky.
The dog-headed Taoist priest is resurrected, opens his scarlet eyes, and is filled with evil energy!
