Spiritualism is one of the most basic magic arts that a Taoist priest needs to know. It is not difficult and does not require much magic power.
Yuzhenzi took out these three things, which are the most common spiritual summoning witchcraft we use in the countryside.
In many places in the countryside, you can see witches and gods who can use these spiritualism techniques to summon the ghosts of the dead to their bodies and talk to their relatives. People call these spiritualism techniques spread among the people "asking for rice". (Xixi
When I was a child, I watched my great-grandmother perform the ritual of asking rice many times. The process was so weird and interesting that it cannot be explained by science.)
"Ask for Rice" is a spiritual spell as its name suggests. The person who performs this spell must prepare white rice, and the head of the rice must be pointed. Taoists believe that rice is white and belongs to gold. It is the most yang thing and can guide the ghosts in the underworld.
On the way to the earthly world, the most important thing for people who learn "Wen Mi" is the word "Pai", which is to knock on the door of hell through constant tapping.[
But having said that, if you want to knock on the door of hell, you must first bribe the ghost servants and bull-headed horse faces with ghost paper and ghost money, otherwise the underworld will not be willing to open the door of convenience for you.
However, during the period of the Cultural Revolution, most of the gods, goddesses, and men were beaten into hostile counter-revolutionaries. They criticized and fought, and fled. This "asking for rice" technique was not only practiced in Hong Kong, Aotai and other places
Except for a few descendants, it has basically been lost except in some remote mountain villages in the mainland.
Nowadays, even in small mountain villages, there is no such witchcraft of asking rice, because there are no successors, and no one is willing to learn this weird thing. If you still see the goddess asking rice, it must be just in vain.
It's a form of defrauding people of money.
Of course, there are also taboos when asking for rice, which are the three "don't ask questions": first, don't ask for close relatives, second, don't ask for people who died unjustly, and third, don't ask for nameless people. The reason why there are so many taboos for "asking for rice" is that
It's all because I'm afraid of being haunted by the ghost of an innocent person and I don't want to leave my body.
"Senior brother, young nephew, you are all tired. Let me, Yu Zhenzi, do this soul-calling ritual." Yu Zhenzi said to Yu Qing.
Yuqing nodded.
Because this is a ritual without much technical content, although Yu Zhenzi is not very good in the eyes of Yuqing Yang Zimei, he is still considered an expert compared to others.
What's more, he has done this kind of thing of summoning souls and asking for rice many times.
Yuqing told Yue Qing on the side to prepare to call the soul.
In order to save his son, Yue Qing naturally did not hesitate and nodded hastily in agreement.
Yu Zhenzi used French rice to guide the way, mainly sprinkling pointed white rice in the northeast direction, because the northeast is the direction of the ghost gate, and this rice can attract the soul of Yue Tiantian.
Then, Yuzhenzi inserted the soul-inducing incense. This soul-inducing incense was not the ordinary incense used to worship taboos, but the Dharma incense that had been consecrated by the secret technique of Longhu Mountain.
Insert them one by one and observe the cigarette. If the smoke sinks, it means that the ghost has been attracted. It is precisely because of the weight of the ghost that the cigarette sinks.
Yuzhenzi pinched the "Lingbao Supreme Jue" with both hands and said urgently: "The sky is spiritual! The earth is spiritual! Ghosts can be seen in the Yin and Yang realms! This is not the other's home! There is no way to sigh in the underworld ahead! The way back after getting lost! Yin's art of war
Mi Kailu! Taishang Laojun is as anxious as the law!"
I cast the spell for a long time, and the time passed little by little.
