Chapter 1213: One of the reasons why Xuanmen is weak
Qi Baoer was silent for a long time in a rare moment. She knew that the Xuanmen in this world was weak since she came to this world, but she could not imagine that it was already so weak.
By the way, in her previous life, which was nearly a hundred years old in the technological era, Xuanmen was even classified as feudal superstition; but it was not to this extent. The heritage left by the ancestors of each sect was still quite complete.
Yes, the main reason for being weak is that there is no spiritual energy, and there are many scammers.
In the end, Qi Baoer couldn't stand it. It was really embarrassing, so he opened the ghost gate and brought up their Xuanmen ancestor from the ground.
None of them know each other, but there are portraits left in the family from generation to generation, which does not prevent everyone from recognizing their ancestors and returning to the clan. Similarly, it does not prevent each of the ancestors from scolding their unfilial descendants until they are bloody.
.
Take Wangyue Temple as an example. Wangyue Temple was first opened by an outer disciple of an ancestor of Shangqing Temple. It can be said to be a branch of Shangqing Temple.
However, as for the outer disciples, the things they had inherited from the past were not complete, and they lost a little here and there along the way, and now they are as good as a magic stick, and they cannot even offer sacrifices to the Eight Classics.
When it comes to sacrifices, in the eyes of many people, it seems that as soon as the ancestral tablets are placed, the offerings are placed, and the incense candles and paper money are burned, the ancestors behind you will receive them.
In fact, it is not that simple. After placing the offerings, you have to read a speech. In the speech, you must indicate who you want to offer to. It is best to include the birth date, so that the offerings can be accurately delivered to the person you want.
delivered to the person.
Otherwise, your sacrifice is just a sacrifice of loneliness, and everything will go into the stomachs and pockets of the lonely ghosts around.
There is also paper money. Paper money is not just random paper money that can be burned and used in the underworld. In the underworld, there is a bank of heaven and earth. However, it does not mean that the paper money printed with the bank of heaven and earth is the money recognized by the bank of heaven and earth. It is the money authorized by the bank of heaven and earth in the human world.
Only those Mingbi Tiandi Banks made by those companies will be recognized, as well as those made by metaphysicians who have passed through the spirit.
These are supposed to be very basic knowledge for Taoism, but the only two people who watch the moon now don't understand these. Filial piety is the most filial, and they usually offer offerings and incense to their ancestors, but the problem is, Wang Yue Guan underground
Generation after generation, no one has received it.
In the words of the ancestor of the Shangqing Sect, he said: "I don't even want to admit that he is my outer disciple. What he teaches is nothing."
Because Qi Dong's soul was still outside, the leader of the Shangqing Temple led the audience to stay near the imperial mausoleum as a precaution, but this did not affect the presence of the ancestor of the Shangqing Sect among all the mysterious masters present.
’s outstanding status.
This has to talk about the history of Shangqing Sect.
All abilities related to Xuanzi in this world have their origins on the other side of the sea, that is, their origin is in the realm of Linghua Sect where Qi Baoer belongs.
Even though Lingxiao Palace is the boss and Linghua Sect is the second brother, Shangqing Sect seems to have returned to the ordinary.
But on this side, because the big sects like Lingxiao Palace and Linghua Sect are relatively Buddhist, they care about their own practice rather than the reputation and prestige outside, so all the time, although every gatekeeper basically has Lai Hai.
While practicing the rules, not many left their sect name behind.
The Qingfeng Sect is different. Thousands of years ago, a disciple came here to practice and created a Qingfeng Sect with the same name. Naturally, there were other Taoist temples and temples in various places at that time, but none of them were the same as the Lord Haitou.
Qingfeng Sect is the first and the only one who dares to use the same name as the main sect.
The disciple of the Qingfeng Sect has never returned to the main sect since he came out. He has been promoting his Qingfeng Sect here all his life, recruiting countless disciples, and indeed passing on many Taoist techniques.
As for the human heart, that's all it is. There really aren't that many people who can truly keep their Taoist mind unchanged.
Because of the existence of the Qingfeng Sect here, and because the Qingfeng Sect here is becoming more and more prosperous, the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect gradually come out from the other side of the sea to practice. The so-called training is to enter the Qingfeng Sect here.
Putting aside everything else, this has indeed made the Qingfeng Sect here become stronger and stronger, gradually becoming the leading sect in the metaphysics world here.
Even if the imperial power is too dominant, problems can arise. Once a dominant sect in the world of metaphysics has problems, the problems will be even greater.
It was even so serious that the Qingfeng Sect controlled many courts, and the royal families of various small countries chose their successors based on whether the prince had 'study' in the Qingfeng Sect. The emperor's words had no weight in the inheritance of the throne without Qing Zongfeng's approval.
.
This chaotic situation dominated by metaphysics has lasted for nearly five hundred years, which can be regarded as alarming several major Buddhist sects across the sea.
Each sect sent out outstanding disciples to bring order to the chaos in the name of experience.
The world of ordinary people should be managed by ordinary people. What trouble are you, a group of Xuanmen people with abilities far beyond ordinary people, making?
The disciples from the eldest and second brothers went straight to the location of the Qingfeng Sect, while the disciples from other sects cleaned up the chaos outside.
The scene at that time cannot be described in a few words. After nearly twenty years, Qingfeng Temple was semi-hidden from the world.
But what outsiders don’t know is that from that time on, the few people who could speak in Qingfeng Temple were no longer true Qingfeng Temple people.
The sect leader is from Lingxiao Palace, the first elder is from Linghua Sect, and the second elder is from the now-declined Fengyu Sect...
As for the name of Qingfeng Sect, which has not been changed yet, there are many considerations.
First, it happened that the disciples from the sects of the eldest brother, second brother, and third brother were all Buddhas. This Buddha did not mean that they were otakus or lazy, but that they did not have the desire to compete for fame and wealth. They took the Qingfeng Sect over just because
This is one of the training tasks.
Second, at that time, after experiencing the dirty operations of the Qingfeng Sect and the past twenty years since they came over, the Xuanmen moved too much and needed a leader to lead the group of Xuan masters through a period of time.
An unsettling time for the metaphysical community.
Although the Qingfeng Sect has a bad reputation, it still has a high status in Xuanmen here. It's not that it can't be given a new name, but the name of the Qingfeng Sect is more useful.
Well, having said so much, the main reason is that they, Buddha, want to handle the matters here as soon as possible and return to the sect as soon as possible.
Changing a name is equivalent to changing a sect. Just like a new force, although its abilities are not afraid of being intimidating, it is not a waste of time.
As for whether the Qingfeng Sect's reputation is still there, it has nothing to do with the sect they really belong to.
So the current Qingfeng Sect is okay on this side of the sea, but its status on the other side of the sea is embarrassing. The leader of the sect since then has never really come from the Qingfeng Sect.
Instead, each sect rotates elder-level figures to serve every ten years.
What's even more outrageous is that the real purpose of these people coming to become sect leaders is not to lead the sect, but to maintain the formation.
The Qingfeng Sect was evaded back then because the mountain where the Qingfeng Sect was located was set up as a living trap by more than a dozen leaders from various major sects.
It seems to some extent that each sect wants to disgust the Qingfeng Sect.
