The scroll looked like it had been there for some time, the paper was yellowed, and some of the old ink marks on it were slightly faded.
Jiang Bai could see clearly that there were names written on them one by one, from ancient times to the present, densely packed.
Jiang Bai has good reason to suspect that Hu Tao brought him to the Seven Heavens Statue not on a whim, but as a premeditated plan!
Otherwise, how could you prepare so many things?
Regardless of what he thought, Hu Tao took out three incense sticks, lit them and inserted them into the incense burner. He bowed and recited:
"Hu Tao, the seventy-seventh generation master of the Rebirth Hall, is here. Please witness the emperor and ancestors. Jiang Bai has become my disciple of the Rebirth Hall today. From then on, we have been together through thick and thin, sharing weal and woe."
Looking at Hu Tao's solemn expression, Jiang Bai's expression also became solemn.
He stared at the names above. Each of those names represented a person, that is, the ancestors of all the Rebirth Hall.
There was no complicated pomp and circumstance, and there were no countless eyewitnesses. Even if she and Hu Tao were the only ones here, facing a statue of a god and the names of many ancestors, Jiang Bai, who originally just followed the trend of joining the Rebirth Hall, couldn't help but look serious at this moment, and truly regarded himself as a person. A part of the Rebirth Hall.
Hu Tao's clear voice rang in his ears, and she said: "Read it after me..."
"Send the dead to life, perform the duties of the living, eliminate evil spirits and demons, and bring peace to the world."
This is the doctrine of the Purana Church and the motto they abide by.
"Send the dead to life, perform the duties of the living, eliminate evil spirits and demons, and bring peace to the world."
Two voices sounded before and after, echoing in the mountains and forests. The voices were sonorous, powerful, and resounding.
Jiang Bai didn't know what his previous behavior style was, but now that he has become a member of the Rebirth Hall, he is willing to abide by this doctrine.
After doing all this, Hutao took up his pen and solemnly added Jiang Bai's name at the end.
After all the rituals were completed, she took a long breath and relaxed.
Jiang Bai also broke away from that solemn state and said with emotion: "I thought that by taking me back to the Hall of Rebirth, Master, you had already joined the Hall of Rebirth..."
Hu Tao put away the things one by one, "That's what I said, but there still needs to be a sense of ceremony, otherwise it will be too casual and there will be no sense of belonging and identity."
"Then the hall master isn't afraid that I am a bad person with ulterior motives?"
"The fact that you said those words yesterday means that you are not a bad person. Even if you are not a good person, you are still a principled person. Besides, your memory is gone, which is equivalent to a blank. You still have to see whether it is good or evil. The person who drew it with a pen."
"And I am the master of this hall..." Hutao patted his chest and said proudly, "I am very confident in my vision!"
Jiang Bai smiled, a sincere smile.
He didn't know if he had any principles, whether they were good or evil.
But as Hu Tao said, what kind of person he is ultimately depends on what kind of person he wants to be.
He looked up at the sky, and the warm sunshine shone on his body, making his whole body feel warm.
It feels so good to be trusted by others...
"Let's go down the mountain!" Hutao jumped up. The fatigue of rushing all morning seemed to be completely gone, and his whole life was full of energy.
Jiang Bai reluctantly picked up his backpack and followed her down the mountain.
The setting sun dyed the sky with golden clouds, and the two of them took advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun and returned to Liyue Port.
It's dinner time, and the aroma of food wafts from the kitchens of every house, attracting greedy people.
Both of them heard a growling sound from their stomachs at the same time, and they immediately decided to speed up their pace and go back to eat quickly.
Returning to the Hall of Purity, the attendants smiled and greeted each other, "Where has the Hall Master gone again?"
"I've come up with a brilliant idea. After dinner, I'll call the master of ceremonies for a meeting. Let's discuss it!"
After leaving these words, Hu Taofeng disappeared, leaving Liu Yiguan standing there blankly.
What did the hall master think of again? Isn't it another buy-one-get-one-free thing, with the second monument half price? This is too ridiculous...
Although he was worried, the ceremonial steward still called Jiang Bai and went to inform the other ceremonial stewards.
Jiang Bai looked for the aroma of the food and went straight to the restaurant. Hu Tao was already feasting, and Jiang Bai joined the battle without hesitation.
It's strange to say that he didn't eat much yesterday and he wasn't very hungry. Why was he so hungry when he smelled the aroma of food?
There were not many people in the Hall of Rebirth, but apart from the guests, there were only about twenty people in total.
The most lively time is every meal time. They chatted about the interesting things that happened recently while eating, and they had a lot of fun.
The person in charge of the food at the Purity Hall is an old man named Ge. He prepares three meals a day.
His hair has turned gray, but he is still in high spirits. At this moment, he is tied up in a circle, and he is smiling as he watches the disciples from the Hall of Purity gather around to eat.
When he was young, he was also the ceremonial attendant of the Hall of Purity. He watched Hutao, the little hall master, grow up, but he never got married. As he got older, he couldn't do other things. In addition, he was good at cooking, so he was specially given to young people. Cook and eat.
For him, the Hall of Purity is his home.
Now when I see the young disciples of the Rebirth Hall, I feel a sense of relief that my little tree is gradually growing up.
Looking at Jiang Bai's new face, he looked kind and kind, "Xiao Jiang, you have just joined our Rebirth Hall. I don't know your taste. I don't know whether you are used to eating food or not. Tell me if you have any taboos... ..."
"Uncle Ge's cooking is really great. I have never had such delicious food!"
Yesterday, Jiang Bai had already met all the Yi Guan, and he also knew about Uncle Ge. When he heard Uncle Ge say this, his rainbow fart jumped out as if it was free of charge. As he spoke, he frantically shoveled rice into his mouth, trying to prove that what he said was true.
This rainbow fart is indeed very suitable. Uncle Ge gently stroked his back and motioned for him to eat slowly, "As long as you like it. You are a poor kid too. If you want to eat anything, tell Uncle Ge and Uncle Ge will make it for you." ..."
Jiang Bai looked like he was touched, and stretched out his hand to wipe the non-existent tears from the corner of his eyes, "Uncle Ge, you are so kind..."
He wasn't that moved, but that didn't stop him from making exaggerated gestures to make the old man happy.
But to be honest, the Hall of Purity really made his stay very comfortable.
There are no constraints, and you don’t have to clock in from nine to five like going to work.
As for the big plan of [Lee Luo Gui Yuan] mentioned by the hall leader... emmmm... let’s talk about it then!
"Haha..." Uncle Ge smiled even more happily, "If the hall master bullies you, just tell me and I will help you teach her a lesson..."
"Uncle Ge, look at what you said, as the leader of the hall, how could I do such a thing!"
"That's not necessarily the case..."
The restaurant was filled with laughter.
After eating and drinking enough, Hutao touched his round belly due to eating and stretched.
She looked around, then jumped up on the stool so everyone could see her.
"Ahem, everyone, please gather in the lobby after dinner. I have a big plan to announce!"
