Yuan Kong frowned when he heard this. He did not think of the crucial day of April 14th.
Even though the Tianwei Taoist altar has many connections with the local sects and witchcraft,
But 'April 14th' is more important. The other party obviously will not give up their respective ceremonies held around April 14th for the sake of their so-called 'sacrifice to the gods'.
But if he doesn't use this as an excuse and directly claims that his family is in trouble and wants the other party to lend a helping hand, Yuan Kong is even more afraid that except for the Wumen who have already fought against the master and apprentice of Chilong, the other forces will not pay attention to it.
If you send a few crooked melons and cracked jujubes here, wouldn't this ruin your own affairs?
After thinking about it for a long time, Yuan Kong suddenly had a thought. He called for a golden-robed master and said with him: "Catch up with the three people from before and tell them - just say that we will take the lead in this 'big feast to worship the gods'."
We organized a gathering of various families to offer sacrifices to all kinds of gods and goddesses, whether they were from local religions, witchcraft or Buddhism, they were all included in this sacrifice!
Each part of the ritual also needs to be negotiated and agreed upon by all parties, so as to jointly contribute to the plan for the manifestation of Zhenlu Mountain!
This big festival to worship the gods will definitely be a grand event, and all forces from all sides will gather here.
Let me see if there is anyone else who doesn’t want to come?!”
As soon as Yuan Kong said this, all the 'dog-headed military advisors' below nodded in agreement.
A master said: "We will take the lead, and all parties will jointly do it. Each party has its own thoughts. Under mutual suspicion, they are afraid that they will drag down their own family. In this way, it is very likely that they will be separated.
As for Fang Qi!
Our Tianwei Taoist altar can survive the disaster that we have encountered this time!
If the Red Dragon Master is a ferocious dragon, can he be more powerful than all the forces joining forces?!"
"That's exactly what it means!"
"The Altar Master is wise!"
"Heh heh heh... I think the sacrifices for this great feast to worship the gods are the Taoists of Beilu Mountain. The great feast to offer sacrifices to the gods is also a dragon-slaying conference!"
Yuan Kong watched the master who had delivered the news leave in a hurry. Hearing the praise of his subordinates, he couldn't help but show a bit of pride, rubbed his chin gently, and smiled without saying a word.
However,
Not long after the master who sent the message left,
The Taoist boy who was responsible for guarding the outer courtyard hurried to the door: "Master! Master of the altar!"
Although the little Taoist boy was wearing a Taoist robe, he was obviously a private slave raised by Yuan Kong, so he called him 'Master'!
"What's up?
How unbecoming you are in such a panic!" Yuan Kong sat at the main seat with his back leaning on the chair. When he saw the Taoist boy rushing to the door, he was actually a little panicked inside, thinking that the real Chilong had broken the door of himself and others.
He was planning to kill him immediately, but he couldn't show it on his face. He still showed a majestic attitude and scolded the Taoist boy who had just walked to the door.
The Taoist boy knelt down on the ground and said repeatedly: "Master of the Altar - a master outside asked me to send you a message, saying that something is wrong!
The group of Taoist priests from outside have now set up flags and flags in front of the Patriarch's Hall and set up a Dharma altar to open the altar to practice Dharma!"
"Open an altar in front of the Patriarch's Hall to perform rituals?!" Yuan Kong suddenly stood up, with a flustered face, and asked Taotong eagerly, "What kind of altar did they open and what method did they perform?!"
"That Master is right - the memorial tablets of the Patriarchs are on the altar, and the 'Forefather's Karma-ending Altar' is opened, and the 'Karma Illumination Method' is practiced!" The Taoist boy was very alert and carried out the Master's message word for word.
It was recounted accurately.
"The ancestors have ceased their karma, and their karma has learned from it——"
"A disaster is coming!"
"This is to reflect our karma and use it as evidence to reward good and punish evil!"
"What should we do? What should we do?"
The golden-robed masters, who were accustomed to arrogant and arrogant people, were all beating their chests and stamping their feet in the central hall as if they were mourning for their heirs.
Yuan Kong's mind was spinning, and under the influence of the panic atmosphere in the hall, his mood became tense. His thoughts flashed again and again, and he suddenly said: "No, no! Even if he wants to reflect the karma on us, he must
Only with specific information such as my birth date and horoscope can I submit a report——
How could he possibly know all my birthdays and horoscopes?!"
All the gold-robed masters were stunned when they heard this.
Before they could react, the Taoist boy outside the door followed: "It seems that a master from the Taoist Altar Department took them directly to the 'Official Order Department' and took away the Taoist altar."
"The Book of Heaven's Mighty Dao."
Yuan Kong heard the sound,
My mind is blank!
The masters in the central hall were even more panicked, and they all called out for help to Yuan Kong who was slumped on the trough!
"Altar Master, we can no longer stay here!"
"When the Patriarch built the Tianwei Altar, he left behind a secret passage. When the disciples of the younger generation are in trouble, they can activate the secret passage and escape down the mountain - this road is only known by the great masters of the altar in the past! Altar Master, where is the secret passage?
Where?
Let’s go down the mountain and run for our lives!”
"Don't hesitate any longer. After judging the karma, the next step for the Taoists in Beilu Mountain is to arrest us and convict us according to the amount of karma entangled with us!"
The teachers were noisy and their faces were full of panic and despair.
Yuan Kong, who was slumped on the low platform, almost followed the instructions of the masters and led them to escape to the secret passage of the agency - but at the last moment, his thoughts came back and he suddenly thought: "Master Chilong Zhenren"
I set up the Patriarch's Karma-Cutting Altar, clearly to judge the lawless, reward the good and punish the evil. The other party is not just cutting down mountains and destroying temples, but in a Tianwei Taoist Altar, 70% to 80% of the people have committed crimes.
All karma must be punished, and most people will be beheaded and die!
This is equivalent to cutting down mountains and destroying temples!
If Chilong Zhenren’s master and apprentice succeed today, at least his own life will definitely not be saved!
They had clearly arranged their carriages and horses, so how could they not expect that someone would escape down the mountain? Maybe they would wait for their own family to escape down the mountain so that they could be caught!
at this time,
There is no use running away in panic.
You have to think of other ways,
Seeking life from death——"
Yuan Kong slumped down on the chair, his mind completely calm.
The shouts and noises of the people around him were getting farther and farther away from him.
After a while, he suddenly stood up from the squat, his eyes clear again, and he scanned the golden-robed masters below. Under the eager expectation of everyone, he said: "You guys stay here for a while.
I'm going to get the key to the secret passage of the machine.
Just stay here and don’t move around!”
He warned everyone, then walked down the stairs and entered the middle hall that was separated by a screen.
All the gold-robed masters looked at each other in shock and stayed in place, not daring to move.
One by one, they stretched their necks, trying to see through the screen that blocked their sight. After seeing the screen, what the master of the altar was doing. Unfortunately, they could not do so. The screen composed of landscape paintings, flower and bird paintings, not only
Cutting off their sight, the peach wood talismans falling from the top of the screen further prevented them from using magic to detect the scene behind the screen.
Just a screen separates the nave into two worlds.
in front of the screen,
All the gold-robed masters looked at each other with anxious and frightened expressions, but they had no choice but to wait where they were.
behind the screen,
There is a shrine on the wall.
There is a statue of the ‘Wutong God’ in the shrine.
Under the clay statue of the ‘Wutong Shen’, there is a memorial tablet.
‘The eighth generation of the Tianwei Taoist altar, Grand Master ‘Ben Ming’, is the god of the gods’!
Previously placed in the shrine in the hall of the Patriarch, in front of the clay statue of Wutong God, was the shrine of the seventh-generation altar master Jinghong of Tianwei Taoist altar. Now in a remote Taoist temple, contemporary
In the shrine placed by the master of the altar, Gong Yuankong, the "Wutong God" is also enshrined. What is placed in front of the statue of the Wutong God is the spiritual tablet of his master "Ben Ming"!
There is a faint red candle in front of the shrine, and the fragrance is lingering.
The incense burner is full of incense ashes,
There were pairs of candles, and the horizontal board of the incense burner had been wiped clean and shiny. It was obvious that someone came here often to offer incense to the two people in the shrine and clean the shrine.
On both sides below the shrine, two boys of about seven or eight years old stood silently.
The two boys had pale and bluish skin, their pupils were dilated, and there was a scent of incense flowing back and forth between their noses.
The two stood under the shrine, as if they were hidden in the shadows, without any sense of existence. If you don't deliberately 'remember' them, you may look at them at one glance, and then you will subconsciously look elsewhere the next moment.
Ignore the existence of both!
Yuan Kong has worshiped his master here countless times.
The two 'Spiritual Taoist Boys' who serve the shrine were trained by him using secret techniques.
The weirdness of the two will not affect him.
He glanced at the boy on the left. The boy on the left looked pale, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. He picked up a stick of incense and handed it to Yuan Kong's hand.
The incense stick was not an ordinary incense stick. It was pale and cold to the touch.
Yuan Kong took the incense and lit it on the candle. After bowing respectfully to the shrine, he inserted a stick of incense into the incense burner. Immediately, white smoke rose from the incense burner in circles.
Waves of howls dispersed along with the white smoke.
The candles in front of the shrine were fluttering, and the dark red flames covered the entire nave.
The temperature here gradually drops,
Every time the temperature drops, the expressions of the two boys standing on both sides of the shrine become more lively, more present in people's perception, and their faces become more rosy.
The cold atmosphere spread from the inner hall separated by the screen.
The golden-robed masters in front of the screen all felt the drop in temperature and heard faint wailing. Everyone's hearts were chilled. Because of Yuan Kong's instructions when he left, no one has left the central hall yet.
Everyone looked at each other.
Whispers rang out in the gloomy atmosphere.
"What is the altar master doing behind the screen? The key to the secret passage...is behind the screen?"
"You go and take a look, you'll know if you go and see..."
"What's behind the screen?"
"You go and take a look, you'll know if you go and see..."
"Does it take so long to get a key? Is the altar master really going to get the key? He won't leave us and run away, right?"
"Go and have a look, you will know after you go and have a look..."
Every golden-robed master inquires and communicates with the people around him.
They all got the same reply.
Advise them to look behind the screen and understand everything at a glance.
But no one really dared to offend the altar master, so everyone still stood there honestly, and the brief whispers died down. Each golden-robed master looked at the people around him and felt that the other person had too much
Some unexplainable 'things'.
Those inexplicable things stood behind everyone, staring at the people opposite.
A strange atmosphere gradually arose in front of the screen,
This atmosphere is like a spider web, clinging to every golden-robed master.
behind the screen,
Yuan Kong took out an old money bag from his arms, and took out a piece of yellow paper rolled up into a ball. When he unfolded the yellow paper, he could see that it was outlined by several different Yunji characters, superimposed on each other.
The formed 'talisman'.
If Su Wu were here,
It can be seen at a glance that this talisman is formed by superimposing the five Yunji characters in the mouth of Wutong God!
Yuan Kong lit the yellow talisman and murmured to himself: "This disciple is in trouble, please bring out the third 'Ying Zhen Talisman' and ask Master Ying Zhen to appear to relieve the disciple's difficulties..."
