The dojo is a place where a practitioner practices Taoism.
For example, last night when he was in deep sleep, it would still be dangerous if someone came to attack him.
If you build a dojo, you won't have to worry about sneak attacks from those evil spirits.
The construction of a dojo is neither difficult nor easy.
Zhuang Xiange went to renovate the Chijun Temple outside the city. If he could invite the mind of 'Chijun' to stay and consecrate the statue, then that place would be his dojo.
Building a dojo is a comprehensive ability. You need to know the magic circle, and you also need array weapons. The array weapons are divided into main array weapons and auxiliary array weapons.
When he went down the mountain to catch ghosts, he got a piece of lightning-struck jujube wood, which he carved into a statue of the "Red Lord". This statue was engraved with the Red Flame God's curse, and then it was consecrated and secretly blessed. It can be used as a statue. The main weapon.
The statue of Chijun was placed in the dark room, shining brightly, with a pure Yang energy spreading, and a faint and terrifying divine power emanating from it.
This wisp of his divine thought and the divine power of Chi Jun are combined in one place. This is the benefit of worshiping this statue. You can feel the divine power in it at all times and achieve a state of fit, thereby strengthening your own 'divine' will and making it more powerful. His own divine will is tainted with Chijun's charm.
He wants to set up a magic circle with the 'Red Lord Statue' as the main weapon.
Then it is best for other arrays to be of fire nature, so that they can be consistent with Chi Jun's divine power and magic.
However, Zhao Fuyun did not have any other array weapons except thirty-six fire needles. However, he had already thought about this when he was in the mountain and read the relevant array diagrams.
Now is the time for experimentation.
He took out some neatly cut silver corners, took the needle bag with him, closed the door to the backyard, and went out.
He is going to buy some lights and come back.
You need that kind of lamp that has been used for many years. This kind of lamp gathers the smoke and smoke of the human world, and then combines it with the fire of 'Red Lord', it can form the true fire of Amādhi, which can burn all Yin things.
Divine fire is invisible and without quality, mysterious and majestic. It burns evil spirits and evil spirits. If a practitioner wants to obtain the divine fire, he can get it by drawing talismans on a scroll and reciting mantras.
Therefore, the 'Fire of Talisman' is also called the divine fire.
Divine fire is domineering, but when combined with human fireworks, it becomes more lingering and can remain in the world for a long time without extinguishing in a flash every time.
Walking through the alley.
Because there is a lot of rain in Wuze County, moss grows on the walls of the alleys, and there are also wild flowers and weeds growing on the walls, very much like the people in this place.
He walked out of this street, because this street was full of rich people. No matter how poor a place was, there would always be a difference between rich and poor.
When he left the block, he smelled a faint stench.
The residents in the city include those who raise pigs, cattle, donkeys and mills, and there are even chickens and dogs among them, and bursts of stench are flying in the wind.
Someone used a dung bucket to carry dung out of the city. Fresh branches were folded over the dung bucket to prevent the dung water inside from flowing out. However, you can still see yellow, white and black things under the branches and leaves. When you walk by , even Zhao Fuyun had to hold his breath.
Passing by the dung picker, he held up the hem of his pants and carefully stepped on the stones in the mud on the ground.
In a small courtyard made of rocks, a little girl and boy were squatting on the ground and playing with fire.
They built a small stove with a few bricks, built a fire with dead branches inside, and roasted something on it.
When Zhao Fuyun stopped at the door of the courtyard, they looked up, their faces covered with black ash. The clothes they wore looked too big, as if they were not their own, and the cuffs and collars were mended.
The two children looked at Zhao Fuyun, who was wearing a brand new light blue robe, with a little fear in their eyes. In their understanding, people who can wear such beautiful clothes are big shots, and they are not accessible to them.
Zhao Fuyun walked in, came to the side of the two people, smiled at them and said: "Two children, what are you baking?"
The older boy among the two children blinked, glanced at Zhao Fuyun, said nothing, and lowered his head.
The little girl was not afraid of strangers and said: "Zhizhi!"
Zhao Fuyun saw the four cicadas roasting on it and understood what she was talking about.
"Is it delicious?" Zhao Negiyun asked with a smile.
"It's delicious!" It was still the little girl who replied.
"Can you give me one to eat?" Zhao Negiyun joked.
But the little girl just smiled, scribbling on the ground with a stick, and peeked at her brother.
"It's not cooked yet!" the little boy said suddenly.
"Forget it, do you have lights at home?" Zhao Fuyun squatted down and asked with a smile.
"Light? What light?" the little boy asked.
"Is this the lamp you lighted at night?" Zhao Fuyun said.
"We need some for ourselves at night. It's dark everywhere at night. If you give it to us, we won't have any more." The little girl replied quickly.
"I'll buy your lamps with money." Zhao Negiyun took out a dime of broken silver from his arms and said.
The children of the poor have become parents early, and they obviously already know the role of money.
Seeing the silver in Zhao Fuyun's palm, his eyes changed. The little boy immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to call Amu back."
The little boy got up and ran a few steps, then came back, dragging his sister with him.
Zhao Fuyun didn't want to follow him at first, but he saw them walking towards the back of the house, and there was a faint sound of talking, and then he seemed not to be able to speak clearly. He heard that the person talking to the two children was a woman, and she seemed not to be talking at all. I don’t believe anyone would come to buy a lamp.
So Zhao Fuyun walked over and saw a well behind their house. There were some women fetching water and washing clothes by the well.
When they saw Zhao Negiyun coming, the women who were fetching water and washing clothes at the well all looked towards him. Seeing Zhao Negiyun's fair and delicate skin and the clothes he was wearing, there was a trace of fear in their eyes.
The little girl pointed at Zhao Fuyun and said, "That's him, he wants to buy our lamp."
A small woman next to her immediately reached out and pulled the little girl's arm and said in a panic: "Don't point your finger at people and talk."
Then he smiled apologetically at Zhao Fuyun.
Zhao Fuyun smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just a kid."
After saying that, he gave a Taoist salute to the women present and said: "Zhao Fuyun, I would like to ask all the sisters-in-law if there are any lamps at home that have been used for a long time? I would like to buy a few lamps to drive away the darkness."
He has learned here these days that people here generally call these married women sister-in-law. Of course, this requires you to be younger than others.
The implication of this is, of course, that everything is discussed from the husband's side, which is a taboo. The customs of various places can be seen from the names.
"Sir, do you want to buy a lamp?" The little boy's mother stood up and said, "I have two lamps at home. When my man comes back from fishing, let him make a new one for you."
She never thought that an old lamp that had been used for so long could still be sold for money.
"I don't need new ones. I just want lamps that have been lit for at least three years. Of course, if they are worn out, then I don't need them."
"Sir, do you really want it?" the woman still asked.
Before Zhao Fuyun could answer, a woman next to him was already saying, "Sir, I have two lamps at home that have been used for more than three years."
The woman from before just held her daughter's hand and said nothing.
"I not only want one, but if you have any at home, you can bring them and I can choose one." After Zhao Fuyun said that, the others immediately got up and went home. The mother of the boy and the girl wiped it on their clothes. hand, and then go home to get it too.
Zhao Fuyun followed. She pushed open the unlocked wooden door, entered the house, and soon took out three lamps.
As soon as he took it out and still in her hand, Zhao Fuyun could see that one of the three lamps was made of a clay pot, and the two were made of a section of bamboo.
Among the three lamps, one seemed to have been out of use for a long time.
The other two lamps contained the kind of 'fire' that ordinary people couldn't feel.
Zhao Fuyun can feel the lingering and adhering nature of the 'fire energy', which is a characteristic of fire in the world of mortals. Only in this way can the 'sacred fire' stay longer in this world and become entangled.
"Both of these are acceptable." Zhao Fuyun said, pointing to the pottery pot and the lamp made of bamboo knots.
"Then, then, these two..." The woman handed over the two lamps and retracted them a few inches. She wanted to ask how much they could sell for, but she was too embarrassed to ask.
"Two dimes of silver!" Zhao Fuyun said, a dime of silver is only the size of a bean, which is a lot for poor people, but for Zhao Fuyun, it is nothing.
The young woman nodded quickly. After Zhao Fuyun took the two lamps, other people had already arrived with lamps.
Some people even brought all the items that had not been used in the house for a long time. Some people grabbed one in each hand, and some wrapped a dozen in cloth.
Many of them were lamps that had dissipated their smoke. Zhao Fuyun didn't want them. He only picked out the ones that were still in use and bought them. He collected the lamps here. The news spread, and people kept buying them from home. The lamp is delivered.
Zhao Fuyun did not refuse, and actually collected more than fifty lamps. Then he stopped and bought some lamp oil. The mother of the little boy and girl also used a big bamboo basket to help him carry it to his residence.
After returning to his residence and sitting down, he looked at the lamps placed neatly on the table by the woman, and felt quite happy. The idea he had in the mountains could be verified here.
He wants to set up a seven-star formation.
The seven-star array has many evolutions. He collected these lights, and the main array object is the 'Red Lord Statue', so the seven-star array he wants to put up is the 'Red Lord-Seven Star Lamp Array'.
These lamps are divided into three types: pottery, bamboo, and copper. Among them, the least number of lamps are copper, and the most are pottery and bamboo.
The 'fire' formed by the lamps made of the three types of utensils will be slightly different, and it will contain the characteristics of gold, wood, and earth, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation, because it has the characteristics of human flames.
Some lamps are clean and some are stained with oil.
Clean lamps should always be used in the bedroom, while lamps stained with oil should always be used in the kitchen.
He sat there and wiped some greasy cloths clean.
Then he took out the carving knife and began to carve the 'Red Flame Divine Curse' on these lamps. The Red Flame Divine Curse was not long, only about twenty characters.
He carved carefully and attentively, carving lamp by lamp alone, and it actually took him a day to finish the carving.
This made him mentally exhausted. First he meditated for a while, and then went to the yard to eat the dew from the night sky. Only then did most of his energy recover.
He took out his 'Red Lord Statue' and placed it on the ground. He and the 'Red Lord Statue' sat opposite each other, like two sitting 'people'.
The lamps are all lit and form a circle around the statues and people.
There were seventy-seven forty-nine lamps in total, and most of them were put aside.
In the darkness, a circle of lights illuminated the room. As he closed his eyes and recited the Red Flame Divine Mantra, his body and the statue of the god glowed with red light. This red light revealed A faint golden color.
These golden-red colors began to spread again.
Starting with the words engraved on the lamps, they shone brightly in the firelight.
This brilliance penetrated into the flame of the lamp, making the originally yellow light become even brighter.
The originally yellow and white outer flame seemed to be dyed with a hint of gold.
The ordinary fire in the world turned into spiritual flames at this moment.
------------------
A black snake climbed up the window sill and peered into the house through a gap. The fire was surging in the room, and a light was like a sword's light. Through the gap in the window, it shone in the black snake's eyes. The black snake felt like it was being weighed down. Hit, he immediately fell over, then slid down the window sill, as if he had no strength. After a while, he started crawling, and seemed to be escaping out of the courtyard.
