Yuanyang County, Houqiu Village, thirty miles west of Jiuhe Mountain.
It is late at night and the moon is dark. Every household in the village hangs mourning cloths on their courtyard doors and white lights on their eaves. The village is filled with a white and miserable funeral atmosphere.
There are two mourning sheds set up in the square next to the ancestral hall, with a large mourning hall and platform in the middle. The slow white paper of the mourning flag tent keeps "clattering" with the night wind. The paper pavilion paper figures placed there are illuminated by the white lights. It's pale and shadowy.
A middle-aged Taoist priest with a slim appearance wearing a black Taoist robe holds a Dharma bell in his left hand, raises his right hand to perform sutras in front of his chest, steps with his feet, and chants loudly, leading many village Taoist priests to recite the "Blood Basin Sutra" around the spiritual axis. For salvation, I have performed rituals such as "wearing flowers, dancing, beating officials, and going to hell" in the past few days. Tonight is the last "breaking the blood river" in Nianqi.
All the men in the village, young and old, knelt before the spirit to pay filial piety.
Stacks of paper money were burned in the brazier, incense was curling up, and the woman's mourning sound started from the ritual ceremony in another shed, like a sad and choking ballad, describing and praising Mrs. Qiu's life without stopping for different people.
As the ritual ceremony came to an end, Zhang Wenfeng came out of the darkness and stopped outside the mourning hall.
Seeing the Taoist priest appear, a filial grandson wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety hurriedly stood up and walked in front of Zhang Wenfeng. He bowed his knees and then knelt down to greet him. This was a solemn "filial piety gift". Zhang Wenfeng hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him and said Say "Old lady, please show your condolences".
He pointed at the middle-aged Taoist priest who was doing the work, indicating that the master didn't need to worry about him.
The middle-aged Taoist priest was immersed in the atmosphere of practicing and chanting sutras, and seemed not to notice that there was an additional observer outside, who was meticulously performing the solemn and solemn salvation ceremony.
After reciting the last verse, the middle-aged Taoist priest rang the Dharma bell and recited "Taiyi Saves the Suffering Treasure" together with other Taoist priests. After completing the ceremony, many filial sons and filial sons kowtowed and stood up one after another.
Seeing Zhang Wenfeng outside the mourning hall, the middle-aged Taoist priest was a little surprised. He walked out with a smile, saluted, and led the guests to the resting yard arranged by the host's family nearby.
"I'm neglecting Guanzhu Zhang. I don't know that Guanzhu Zhang is here at midnight, but do you have any urgent instructions?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest is Feng Qiyue, the Supreme Elder of Jiuhe Palace. He hides in the countryside, walks away from the ordinary way by doing things, and feels the sorrow and death in the world in order to achieve his own transcendence. He is unique.
In the past few years, with the rapid rise of Xianling Temple, Feng Qiyue rarely contacted Guanzhu Zhang. His identity did not match. He was also a person who wanted to save face. He was worried that being left out would be unsightly. However, the big and small matters of Xianling Temple, including the Chinese New Year, Sometimes, he would send his guests to deliver a gift. Isn't it strange that so many people would give him a gift?
Zhang Wenfeng didn't beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "I have a favor to repay, and it's just when Fellow Daoist Feng is in need, so I tried every means to find out the location of Fellow Daoist and come to disturb you. Fellow Daoist Feng doesn't have to think too much."
On the road of spiritual practice, it is taboo to be sloppy. In certain critical areas, you should obey your true heart and conduct yourself in the world.
He went to Willow Branch River and got ten precious elixirs from Yang Shuilan. He was kindly stayed on the river island by Lezi to rest for three days. He drank heavily with his alcoholic cousin for three days, chatted with his senior sister for a long time, and then went to the mine. The cave looked at the fat mountain badger.
When Fan Chongfeng sent a message informing him of Feng Qiyue's whereabouts, he went straight to find him and had been observing secretly for several days.
Feng Qiyue invited the rare visitor Zhang Guanzhu into the courtyard and asked the little Taoist priest who was waiting with him to avoid it. He asked curiously: "When has Guanzhu Zhang ever owed someone a favor to Feng? Why can't Feng remember it all at once?"
He did not have many interactions with Zhang Guanzhu, and the number of interactions was also very few.
It was a bit strange before. Guanzhu Zhang seemed to have an unusual fondness for him, and his words were very close to him.
Back then, a foreign affairs procurement disciple of the sect who failed to achieve anything but failed, severely offended Zhang Guanzhu and Chen Qingqiao, who is now a golden elixir. Later, his nephew Feng Chengfeng even forced Zhang Guanzhu to have a spar. As long as he didn't turn over old scores with him Just burn high incense. When has Zhang Guanzhu ever owed others a favor?
It seems that Guanzhu Zhang doesn't seem to be contradicting what he said. As Guanzhu Zhang is the Heavenly Master who protects the country, there is no need for him.
It doesn't take a lot of effort to control him, he can be crushed to death with just one finger.
"Many years ago, fellow Daoist Feng, you used the Golden Rooster Guiding Technique to summon souls and return them to the Yang on the road to the underworld.
He helped me unintentionally. I was framed by a villain that night, and my soul wandered into the underworld. I happened to meet the golden rooster and was able to escape from the trap. "
Zhang Wenfeng slightly changed his words. The case he was framed by Lu Jinzhong had a file in the county Daolu branch, which was correct. With his current status, he no longer had to worry about the little things back then.
He bowed his hands and bowed solemnly to the stunned Feng Qiyue.
"It can't be done, it can't be done!"
Feng Qiyue smiled so hard that his mouth was a little crooked. He wanted to hold it back but couldn't, so he hurriedly reached out to help him.
When he cast the spell to summon souls, he had just advanced to the realm of freedom. When he was in high spirits, he had some impulse to try the secret technique of opening into the netherworld that he had learned. Later, he suffered backlash and fell ill in bed for more than two months before he slowly recovered his energy. .
You can't try the law randomly. He learned the hard lesson.
Unexpectedly, the golden rooster made a great contribution that night. By coincidence, it carried the soul of Guanzhu Zhang out of the underworld.
He suspected that Jinji had brought something out, and he used his magic technique to ask several questions to no avail. He summoned the Daolu branch of each county under Yuanyang County to cooperate in finding the person who returned to Yang, but nothing happened.
Zhang Guanzhu's affection and closeness to him were all explained at this time, which made him worried for several years.
"Guanzhu Zhang, please take a seat quickly. I can help you a little bit unintentionally, but it's not a big deal!"
"'Someone has a taste and some has a taste, some has borrowed and some has returned,' as is common for us ascetics. This breaking pill represents Zhang's feelings. Things are light but affection is heavy. Please don't refuse, fellow Taoist monks."
Zhang Wenfeng took out a pill bottle containing a good elixir and handed it over.
Breaking from level 3 to level 4 is a huge hurdle. Without the support of medicine, the difficulty will be doubled.
He found out that Jiuhe Palace did not have the Realm Breaking Pill, so Feng Qiyue secretly approached a familiar sect to buy it, but could not get it for several years.
Feng Qiyue smiled so hard that both sides of his cheeks froze. He was too embarrassed to be polite about this favor, so he offered it in a timely manner. He couldn't refuse, so he took it with both hands and thanked him profusely.
During the five hundred years when the spiritual energy declined, Jiuhe Palace experienced countless ups and downs. There were several prodigal thieves on the mountain who squandered the few rare elixirs left by the ancestors, leaving the descendants to do nothing.
It was difficult at the beginning. As the supreme elder of Jiuhe Palace, only if he advanced to the realm of golden elixir, could he seize the early opportunity of the spiritual energy surge, create more conveniences for those who came after him, and usher in the prosperity of the mountain gate.
Boil water and make tea, hold candles and talk at night.
Exchange experiences and give advice.
Early the next morning, Zhang Guanzhu left in the autumn mist, and Feng Qiyue respectfully sent him back from afar.
Fulfilling a wish, Zhang Wenfeng flew back to the sect and left most of the good elixir in the treasure house in the back mountain. He specially explained it to the mountain chief and stayed for three days to give two lessons to the apprentices and test Gou Wa's scriptures. The study of reciting taught the swordsmanship of everyone in Jianping.
He set off to fly to the city in the east. After talking to the three old demons in Moling Youjing, he felt that it was necessary to grow flowers in the lower realm to make more friends. The monks who could stand out in the early stage were all outstanding ones. .
After the disciples in the secret realm came out, it was Yue Anyan's turn to go to Moling Secret Realm to practice for a few years to prepare for the promotion to Jindan.
He went to get it for the disciples of the sect as the guardian of Gui Zailing, so that after he went into seclusion in the future, Tu Kun, who returned from Lingxing Island, could take the token and lead his disciples in and out from the entrance of the cave in the middle of Gui Zailing.
