I hated his eccentricity from the very beginning, and I still do now.
I cupped my hands and said loudly: "Elders are elders. Even if I, Chen Qi, become the King of Heaven, I still have to recognize my relatives!"
"The younger generation has the younger generation's obligations, and the elders naturally have the elders' responsibilities."
If he doesn't understand what he's saying, that's his fault.
On the big day, I don’t want to be entangled with him endlessly.
Turning around, I looked at Wuwen and said, "Please arrange a seat for the second master."
Ji Canghai and Zhang Hanshan rushed over with people from the martial arts school. A group of young men dressed in uniforms stood out among the crowd.
"Congratulations! Brother!" Ji Canghai put his arm around my shoulders: "No matter what, you finally have your own family."
Zhang Hanshan kept winking: "Please pay attention to the occasion."
"I'm sorry, Master Chen." Ji Canghai suddenly smiled up at me, put his arm around my shoulders, and shook me hard: "If you don't recognize me, Ji Canghai, I will give you a beating."
I took a deep breath and put away the laughter in my heart: "This Taoist temple is not mine, it belongs to the general public, and it also belongs to you."
Ji Canghai laughed: "From now on I can go out and brag, my brother is a Taoist priest!"
While talking, a burst of blowing broke into my ears.
Everyone turned around and saw a team dressed in red and colorful, with two avoidance cards in front of them.
There are several big words written on the avoidance card: Blessing from the Heavenly Official, there are no taboos.
The team had just arrived at the foot of the mountain and couldn't see clearly who was coming, but the only one who could play this sign was Chen Liugong.
The old boss is here!
I turned around to say hello and hurried to the mountain gate with my men.
The old boss was sitting on a vermilion sedan chair, looking at me with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Mr. Chen."
I quickly raised my hands and saluted: "I should have welcomed you from afar, but I am rude to you, my senior boss."
The old leader patted the armrest of the sedan chair, and the chair slowly fell to the ground.
I just felt a gust of wind passing by my eyes, and the old leader had appeared in front of me.
After some pleasantries, all the guests took their seats under Taozi's guidance.
I hid behind the crowd and watched the crowd of guests and friends, and felt that everything was worth it.
The second master sat in the passenger seat in the first row. Judging from the seat, this position was second only to the old boss.
However, his face now looked as ugly as if he had just eaten hot shit.
I looked carefully and saw that Erye's legs seemed to be shaking.
Is this old man sick because of his anger?
The grand opening ceremony naturally involves a lot of etiquette, and a lot of talk is inevitable.
When it came time to become famous, I pushed out the old boss of Chen Liu Palace.
The so-called lifting of red means to lift off the red cloth of the statue in the main hall, then put a pillar of incense on it, and then the Eighth Master recites the consecration inspiration mantra.
When all this is done, the ceremony will be officially completed.
The old master stood up slowly and walked quickly to my side. Although he was old, his every word was sonorous and powerful.
"My Taoist name is Fa Qing. He is the current head of Chenliu Palace. Although his Taoism is low and his status is humble, my Taoist friends are having a viewing today, so I have to come."
"Today..." The old master cupped his hands and made a four-way salute: "I dare to step forward to make a big splash, and I ask you all to be witnesses."
As soon as these words came out, there was a sigh of relief all around.
The people present were either yin-yang eaters or devout Taoists, and some of them had interacted with me.
Generally speaking, everyone here is in this circle.
Everyone knows the status of Chen Liugong, and even more so the weight of the old master.
Even I didn’t expect that the old boss would appear as a friend.
Putting aside everything else, just talking about the age gap, I can't call him "Master" too much.
What the old boss said undoubtedly made me feel a little stiffer.
When the red color is lifted, all the clouds above the head disperse, auspicious auspiciousness is sprinkled on the statue, and chanting sounds come one after another.
Some people bowed their heads and worshiped, while others closed their eyes and chanted sutras, all of them were extremely pious.
Sure enough, with the help of the eight masters, every link was smooth.
As time passed by, I gradually let go of my worries.
At this time, Wuwen suddenly ran up behind me, whispered in my ear, "Master, Senior Brother Tianlei is looking for you."
Thunder?
Isn't he guarding the door?
Looking at the silence around me, I nodded to myself and followed Wuwen out.
When we arrived at the side hall, I asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"It seems so, and...it's a bit tricky."
