At Haishi, there were showers of rain falling at the foot of Qinghua Mountain, making it humid and muggy.
He Qingjia wore a snow-green fox fur cloak embroidered with magnolia branches and carried a flat-headed lantern with four corners. He walked lightly and had an elegant demeanor.
"Fifth sister-in-law, I'm worried that fifth brother won't let you go." Li Chunxu saw He Qingjia and happily stepped forward to hold her arm.
Then, the two of them walked along the winding mountain road until a faint light appeared in front of them.
"You are the Orange Slave!" Li Chunsu smiled brightly.
Orange Nu still wore the double-sided jade gauze and lit up a green lotus lamp. The light inside the lamp was not the light of fire, but the light of fireflies, which made her look as beautiful as a ghost.
"Ladies, I have completed the initiation ceremony and come to pick you up." Orange Nu said coldly.
After walking forward for an unknown number of steps, Junu stopped under a thick cedar tree and crawled into the trunk. Li Chunsu followed, followed by He Qingjia.
The trunk of the cedar tree is hollow, with a cave to the sky, and a staircase that reaches as far as the eye can see. Junu reminded in a low voice that the moss was slippery, and Li Chunxu almost fell down. Fortunately, He Qingjia caught him.
"Ms. He turns out to be a warm-hearted person." Ju Nu smiled strangely.
At the end of the steps is a spacious place, similar to a Buddhist hall. The most eye-catching location is the green lotus statue, made of blue and white jade.
Ju Nu prepared two futons and placed them in front of the Green Lotus Statue, signaling He Qingjia and Li Chunxu to kneel down and perform three obeisances and nine kowtows.
"Ms. Orange, is the ceremony of three bows and nine kowtows too solemn?" He Qingjia asked.
Buddhist temples practice the ritual of three bows and three kowtows. In order to distinguish the imperial ritual, it is the great ritual of three bows and nine kowtows.
Li Chunxu also came back to his senses at this time and looked at Ju Nu, full of doubts.
"Ms. Orange, I'm here for the first time. I misremembered." The visitor came out from behind the green lotus statue. He was wearing a flying green dress and a lotus crown, without a double-sided jade veil.
"Master Chai," Ju Nu said with a bow.
After saying this, He Qingjia pulled Li Chunsu and bowed Yingying.
“The Green Lotus Sect is divided into nine levels: the first level is sentient beings, the second level is Tianen, the third level is Zhengen, the fourth level is Yinen, the fifth level is Baoen, the sixth level is Dingxing, the seventh level is Ten Fruits, the eighth level is Ten Grounds, and the ninth level is Lotus Platform. I am the helmsman in charge of the first-grade sentient beings." Chai is nearly forty years old and has a long face.
"Master Chai, how should we salute the Green Lotus God?" He Qingjia asked.
"Bow once and kowtow once." Master Chai replied.
After that, He Qingjia led Li Chunxu to follow the instructions, and his movements were as smooth as clouds and flowing water.
"From the first to the third rank, you will be promoted automatically after a few months. When you turn around, I will ask Orange Slave to bring you a small statue of the Green Lotus God, and you will pay homage to it sooner or later. From the fourth to the sixth rank, the emphasis is on sincerity, and you can directly donate money. Benefiting the church can also be achieved by completing the tasks assigned by the Qinglian Sect. As for the seventh rank to the ninth rank, it is said that a firm belief is required. I am just the leader of the first rank sentient beings believers, and I stop at the sixth rank." Master Chai said in a deep voice.
"Master Chai, what were your needs when you first joined the religion?" Li Chunsu said with a smile.
"I found out that my husband had an extramarital affair, and it turned out to be my handkerchief. At that time, I wanted to jump into the river, but my senior sister stopped me. My senior sister said that it would be better to pray to the Green Lotus God, maybe there would be a surprise. So, I knelt down and worshiped day and night, and my mind calmed down. Half a year later, I handed my handkerchief to an older brother who was a bad gambler, who brought debt collectors to his door. Four members of his family died violently. I felt very happy and decided to spend all my wealth and invest in the Green Lotus Sect to benefit poor people like me. ." Captain Chai still felt sad.
"The Green Lotus God is very powerful, specializing in helping people take revenge." Li Chunxu sighed.
"Okay, you can go back. In addition to the birthday of the Green Lotus God, there is also a Nirvana event. They are participating in separate events. I will let you know when the time comes." Captain Chai signaled to Nu Nu to see off the guests.
"Master Chai, what sad story does the Green Lotus God have?" He Qingjia asked.
"The life experience of the Green Lotus God is very miserable. Aye is a gambler and Aniang is a drunkard. They sold her to the south of the Yangtze River and trained her to be a thin horse in Yangzhou. She was sold again and again and was tortured physically and mentally. The last male master had a special He treated her as a substitute for the mistress and tortured her day and night. Later, the male master got drunk and played with her for two days, forgetting to feed her the duck soup. In this way, she was pregnant and was discovered by the mistress. The master had a divorce, and the male master could only drive her away. Where could she go? She was unfamiliar with the place, and because of her beauty, she was molested by gangsters, and she eventually had a miscarriage. By the time the male master found her, she had already When she was dying, the male protagonist vented his desires and tortured her to death. Later, she came back from the dead and became the Green Lotus Goddess, and decided to forgive everyone. However, God took pity on her and punished those who had hurt her. She The Aye was chopped into seven or eight pieces by debt collectors, her mother-in-law fell into the water and died drunk, and her master died of the disease. In order to thank God for her kindness, she decided to wipe away the sorrow for the poor people in the world." Ju Nuqiang Got the words.
After the initiation ceremony, Ju Nu sent He Qingjia and Li Chunsu out of Qinghua Mountain.
"Madam, you are finally back." Lu Yun smiled.
"Ajun, do you know Lu Xiao?" He Qingjia asked.
After Lu Yun heard this, he was stunned for a long time. Lu Xiao is her sister, but she rarely sees her. Every time they met, Lu Xiao would quietly listen to Lu Jun's chatter, and most of the topics Lu Jun could talk about were related to He Qingjia. However, Lu Jun never understood anything about Lu Xiao.
"Ajun, has Lu Xiao ever had physical contact with a man?" He Qingjia asked.
"Madam, I don't know." Lu Yun choked.
Lu Jun's reaction showed that she at least had doubts. One day, Lu Xiao fell seriously ill and was lying on the bed as if he had died. Lu Yun came over secretly to visit, listened to the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor, and secretly noted that it was for treating miscarriage.
"The Helian family is sorry for Lu Xiao." He Qingjia sighed softly.
"Madam, if that person insulted my sister, why would she be willing to die in your place?" Lu Yun's eyes turned red.
"Ajun, that person is me, Aye. If you want to resent him, then resent him. I guess Lu Xiao wants to use her life to exchange for your peace of life..." He Qingjia stopped talking and returned to the bedroom.
"Madam, sister is still alive?" Lu Yun chased after her.
However, lying on the wooden bed was Li Chunjian, who was sleeping with big letters, and her fair and rosy face was as delicious as a cherry.
"His Royal Highness Prince Kang!" Lu Yun roared in Li Chunjian's ear like a Hedong lion.
Li Chunjian jumped up in fright and looked at He Qingjia in confusion.
"His Royal Highness Prince Kang, ask Lan Yu to take you back to your mansion." He Qingjia was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
"Qingjia, please let me stay." Li Chunjian shook He Qingjia's arm, her voice was not only soft, but also conveyed a lingering meaning.
"Madam, you succeed once, and you succeed again and again." Lu Yun said angrily.
However, Li Chunjian returned to the next room and fell asleep.
"Ajun, I will try my best to preserve Lu Xiao." He Qingjia closed her eyes and spoke calmly.
After Lu Yun heard this, the corners of his eyes became wet again. She did not ask He Qingjia which member of the Qinglian sect Lu Xiao was, she planned to escape.
