I looked back and pointed to the door: "The altar is right here."
"Xu Mo sealed the doors and windows with cinnabar thread. If he dares to explode, I will bury him on the spot today!"
Zhi'an opened his mouth to dissuade him: "Since we are talking sincerely, let's not do these little tricks. If we hurt the harmony, we will definitely not be able to reach an agreement."
I smiled and shook my head: "Corrupt officials are bad, but honest officials must be even worse and more ruthless! How about you not being bullied to death?"
"Being prepared is the greatest guarantee. Don't be soft-hearted."
I couldn't help but take a deep breath: "How are you sure he didn't leave any behind?"
In fact, this is also the difference between the North and the South.
In other words, this is the reason why the Northern School has never been in the mainstream. We have been tempered by things and can't trust anyone except our own people.
To put it to the extreme, not only is it unbelief, but everyone is an imaginary enemy.
Nothing else, because we also have to live.
Zhi'an thought about it carefully and suddenly laughed out loud: "Okay, it's up to you."
I joked half-jokingly: "I'm so honored that the majestic head of Baiyun Palace can actually listen to my command."
"Actually, I've been reflecting on it these days."
Zhi'an said with a serious face: "The difference between us is definitely not scripture or Taoism, it's experience."
"From now on, we will have a division of labor. When you enter the Taoist temple, you will listen to me, and when you leave the Taoist temple, you will listen to you."
I smacked the Yahuazi and said, "Okay, this trick is reliable."
In the afternoon, I asked the old man for a few things, none of which were rare.
I called Xu Mo to my side: "I'm going to teach you something. This is called the Bagua Locking Formation."
As I said that, I picked up the hemp rope on the ground, soaked it in pig's blood, and then slowly simmered it in the charcoal fire.
This requires more skill. You need to ensure that the entire rope is blackened, but it must not be burned.
This is what is said about taking only the brilliance of fire and not seeing the kindling of fire.
In the afternoon, the sky gradually turned gloomy, and a large number of snowflakes fell. The gray sky had an inexplicable narrowness.
Xu Mo rubbed his red hands, put them to his mouth and breathed: "Master, how long will it take?"
"You go out now, dig a small ditch around the house and bury the rope."
After a pause, I deliberately slowed down my tone: "Remember, you must not expose it."
"If you leak something, I'll give you a spanking. Is that okay?"
Xu Mo pursed his lips: "I know!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, I spoke again: "I'm not done yet."
"It doesn't matter if it's too much or too little. It's exactly three inches and three inches long, leaving a knot half a foot long at the end. Remember?"
Xu Mo nodded reluctantly: "Remember!"
"Okay, you go and do your work. I'll go back to the house and take a nap. Call me when you're done."
Xu Mo took out a shovel from the yard, I wrapped myself in a cotton-padded jacket, turned around and entered the house.
Of course, I didn't sleep, I just wanted Xu Mo to face all this by himself.
The stove in the room was burning very brightly, and it was so warm that it made one's throat dry.
Zhi'an looked at me with a smile: "Are you really willing to let this little apprentice work by himself?"
"Then there's nothing to be reluctant about. This is how we got here."
"Have you got all those things ready?"
Zhi'an nodded and pointed to the bloody sack next to him: "It's the New Year's Eve soon. There are people who kill pigs and cows. These things are easier to get."
At dusk, Xu Mo finally entered the house.
As soon as he entered the door, he put his hand next to the stove and said, "Master, go and take a look, you are doing a great job!"
"Just do it, I don't have to watch."
Xu Mo stood up immediately and begged: "Go and have a look, master! What if I did something wrong?"
"No? Then just wait until something happens."
Xu Mo looked at me dumbfounded: "Master, don't joke about this! If something happens, I will
It's definitely no small matter. "
"I know, this..."
Zhi'an also helped: "This is the first time this kid has done this, so he must be unsure. You can help him with his advice."
"If you want to go, you can go, I won't go."
It's not that I'm cruel, it's mainly that I can't develop this habit for Xu Mo.
I help him deal with the aftermath every time, and he doesn't have to worry about it. He always feels that he is safe behind him.
I just gave him the feeling that there was no one behind him!
Only in this way can he grow quickly!
After a while, I put on my clothes and muttered: "It's almost time, I'm going to use the toilet."
"Everyone, please go to your places."
After saying that, I went out in the wind and snow.
In fact, going to the bathroom was just an excuse. I sneaked out the door while the people in the room weren't paying attention, and bent down to watch everything Xu Mo did.
After all, I can't really ignore him.
I checked around, don't tell me, I really saw the right person.
Although it was Xu Mo's first time doing it, he handled the details very well and the dimensions he told me were exactly the same.
Seeing this, I felt at ease.
When I went back, Zhi'an had already led people to place a long table outside the door.
When he saw me coming back, Zhi'an just smiled knowingly and said nothing.
Soon, a simple version of the altar appeared in front of us, with cattle, sheep and pigs placed on it.
Zhi'an said with a hint of regret: "It's really not too strong, so I can only make do with it first."
The so-called Tailao refers to a whole cow, sheep, and pig, which is the highest standard for worshiping gods.
The slightly worse one is called Shaolao.
During the farming period, the life of a cow was even more valuable than a human being, so there were no cows in Shaolao.
Further down, there are the heads of these three animals.
