After sending these people away, I invited Jing'an and Hui'an over.
"The practice of chanting sutras is the duty of the sutra hall, and Hui'an assists."
At this time, Wuwen had already handed me the collected information. I took a quick look and saw that there were 22 people in total.
"Jing'an, I leave this matter to you. Give me some time."
Jing'an looked at the list attentively and whispered: "With so many people, it will definitely be too late to open a forum."
"Easy to count with plum blossoms?"
Jing'an's face showed a bit of embarrassment: "I'm a humble person, but I'm really not good at this."
Hui'an, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "Leave it to me to try."
He said it with certainty and it was not a probing question.
I knew he was eager to make a contribution, so I asked him, "Then tell me, what can you do?"
Hui'an immediately stood up, puffed out his chest and said loudly: "Pindao is learning the most orthodox ghost control technique of the Qingwei sect, and can command the five little ghosts."
As he spoke, he looked at Jing'an: "Although this is not my skill, I am willing to help!"
After a long silence, Jing'an, who had always kept aloof from the world, slowly shook his head: "I can handle the problems in the sutra hall by myself without the help of others."
"I will give you an answer within three days."
Hui'an stretched out his thick palm and said, "I only need two days."
After giving me time, he turned to look at Jing'an: "Brother, I don't have to argue with you. Now is not the time to compete. The most important thing is that we have to help the Taoist temple solve its problems."
"When I return to Chenliu Palace someday, if the old master asks about it, you and I will at least contribute to Master Chen."
The smart thing about Hui'an is that he can see the overall situation clearly and speak so accurately that no one can refute him.
Now this thing has become fun. One of them wants to save face, and the other wants to regain their dignity.
Just right, then I'll sit back and enjoy the results.
This is not harmful to anyone, but the principle must be made clear: "We are all brothers in the same discipline, don't do things that make people laugh."
"If you need me, I will cooperate anytime and anywhere."
This aspect of the matter has been put aside for the time being, and there is no idea about the open viewing.
Only when I saw Taozi did I feel relieved.
Tao Zi took care of the inside and outside of the Taoist temple very carefully, from the guest list to the etiquette and even the fruits, pears and peaches used.
Taozi knows very well how urgent these three days are. Although she can understand my thoughts, she is still a little worried.
"Otherwise, let's postpone the viewing time."
I raised my hand to pick up the heavenly stems and earthly branches, and shook my head: "This is the last auspicious day of the year. If you miss this, you will probably have to wait until next spring."
"Forgetting everything else, it's a huge expense for so many people to eat horse chews."
Tao Zi asked with some confusion: "Without this ceremony, it can't open the temple?"
"Why do you think I have to ask the Eighth Master of Chenliu Palace for nothing? Consecration is only one aspect, the most important thing is to borrow their status as Taoist priests."
The main image of the Sanqing Hall shines in the sun. The Sanqing Laojun holds the treasure with kind eyes and looks towards the Qilin Mountain in the distance with a deep gaze.
I'm waiting, and so are they.
Taozi thought for a moment: "Then it's up to you, but I suggest that security measures be taken."
She leaned close to my ear, her face full of seriousness: "No one is scary, but once they form a group, ants can also roar like a mountain and a tsunami."
I knew what she was worried about, so I quickly nodded in agreement: "With Yang Hu and Tian Lei here, safety will definitely be fine. Besides, Ji Canghai and Zhang Zhenhai will also come."
"With these four people together, even if a group of zombies come, they can be dismantled into parts, right?"
During the day, I saw Jing'an setting up an altar in the backyard, and everyone in the sutra hall was present.
I looked from a distance and saw water and a ghost torture stick on the table. I guess he wanted to use it to examine ghosts.
The ghost torture stick is in the shape of four ridges, with the words "Execution and torture of Marshal Meng as ghosts" written on the front, and "Destroying evil and slaying Marshal Zhu" on the back.
This is a variation of the typical Fuji technique. First, a Taoist instrument is used to get through the city god, and then the ghosts are captured for trial.
Facts have proved that Jing'an's ability is not weak, but he just lacks experience.
