"Senior brother, it's Wang Ping and the others."
The little devil was quite excited and pointed at the crowd not far away.
Outside the temporary dojo, a group of three people rushed towards Chu Chen excitedly, looking quite excited. The visitors were none other than old friends and colleagues from Guangping County, Qingzhou—Wang Ping, Little Monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin.
"Why didn't you let me know in advance when you came to Yunzhou, so that I could take care of you all?"
Chu Chen was not surprised that Wang Ping, Little Monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin appeared in Yunzhou. His master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, had told him before that these former friends of his planned to be transferred to Bianhuangzhou County, hoping to make old friends Reunion.
However, Chu Chen was still quite happy and excited to see his old friend in Wanquan County, and he stepped forward to meet him.
"Brother Chu, is it unexpected? Hahahaha~"
Wang Ping was quick-thinking and free-spirited. When he saw Chu Chen, he didn't look like a Taoist monk, but like a soldier. The two of them hugged each other, looked at the little devil again, and took out a handful of incense. handed it.
"Little devil, do you miss Senior Brother Wang?" "Yes! Senior Brother Wang is mighty!"
When the little kid saw the incense, his eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded without hesitation. He didn't have any awareness of being a fifth-grade monk. He held the incense and wanted to kowtow in thanks.
"No, no, no, little devil, I can't bear it, Senior Brother Wang, I can't bear it."
Wang Ping was shocked when he saw this. He could shamelessly ask the kid to call him "Senior Brother Wang", but he didn't dare to accept the kid's kowtow.
In the world of spiritual practice, those who have mastered it come first.
He had just broken through to the sixth level of Taoism. The Erbao Fairy Boy with the fifth level of cultivation was a well-deserved senior. The order of seniority and inferiority should not be messed up. He could not bear the little devil's gift and his life would be shortened easily.
"Hahaha~"
When Chu Chen, the young monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin saw Wang Ping, the "she cow", being submissively treated by the naive little devil, the three of them smiled knowingly, as if time had suddenly returned to the time when they worked together in Guangping County.
"Senior Brother Chu (Fellow Daoist Chu)"
Lin Miaoyin and the young monk Yuantong appeared more reserved. One bowed slightly, the other held a Buddhist bead with one hand, and bowed with one hand.
Chu Chen returned the gifts one by one, with a look of joy on his face, and introduced Hu Dali and his disciple Chu Baiqing to his former friends.
"I've met all of you, uncles."
The three of them couldn't see the little white dragon Chu Baiqing's heels. They were not new. They just simply liked this handsome little guy. They all touched their heads and faces, and kept praising them, saying that Chu Chen had accepted a good disciple and was envious of Yunyun. . "Brother Wang, fellow Yuan Dao, Miaoyin, I heard from my master that you will be transferred here. I finally expected you to come. When did you come to Yunzhou?"
"I just arrived yesterday, taking the Xianting grain transport flying boat..."
It was still early, and there was still a long time before the rain prayer ceremony started, so Chu Chen took the three of them to a pavilion by the roadside in the distance and sat down.
The four of them had not seen each other for more than three years. The four of them exchanged pleasantries and seemed to have endless things to talk about. They recalled the past and talked about where they would go after arriving in Bianhuang Prefecture.
Coincidentally, Wang Ping, Little Monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin were also transferred to the Wanquan County Ghosts and Gods Department as the deputy director of the first hospital.
Of course, there are differences for the same deputy director of the county's Department of Ghosts and Gods.
Wang Ping and Lin Miaoyin were sixth-grade immortal officials and served as vice-presidents of a certain hospital in Wanquan County.
The young monk Yuantong is a sixth-grade immortal official. He is assigned to a certain city and county under the jurisdiction of Wanquan County. He assists the deputy governor of the county and is in charge of the ghosts and gods affairs of a city. He has a prominent position.
Through conversation, Chu Chen learned that in addition to Wang Ping, Little Monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin who had been transferred to Yunzhou, Qian Sangua had also arrived.
However, he was transferred to Yuqin County where Taoist Xu Ping was located, and served as the deputy director of a certain courtyard of the county's Department of Ghosts and Gods, holding the rank of sixth-grade immortal.
However, whether it is the young monks Yuantong and Qian Sangua who are in the sixth rank, or Wang Ping and Lin Miaoyin who are in the sixth rank, they are no longer the little monks they used to be. Each one of them is on their own and seems to have grown into the mainstay of the fairy court step by step. Chu Chen was not surprised by Qian Sangua, Little Monk Yuantong, and Wang Ping's cultivation and immortality.
Qian San Gua, Yuantong
The young monk was a good friend he met when he was the counselor of the county capital. The two of them had high levels of Taoism and talent, and they broke through the sixth level of Taoism two years ago.
They have been serving as sixth-grade immortals in Qingzhou for nearly two and a half years. They have made significant progress in their Taoist cultivation and have made many achievements. They are worthy of training. It is natural for the Immortal Court to promote them to the sixth-grade.
Chu Chen was not surprised that Wang Ping broke through to the sixth level of Taoism. The only thing that surprised him was that Lin Miaoyin also broke through to the sixth level of Taoism.
If he remembered correctly, Lin Miaoyin had just broken through to the seventh level of Taoism three years ago. He never expected that she would progress so quickly in the past two or three years.
"Junior Sister Miaoyin, you have accumulated a lot in the past three years and have made great progress in practice. It is really impressive." Chu Chen joked with a smile.
When Lin Miaoyin heard Chu Chen's praise, she felt quite happy and a little embarrassed:
"Senior Brother Chu, I am far behind you and Ying'er. I heard Ying'er say a few days ago that you are currently in the late fifth stage of Taoism, and it is difficult for us to match you."
"That's what Junior Sister Miaoyin said."
Wang Ping nodded repeatedly when he heard this, quite embarrassed. His cultivation speed was not slow, and he was almost the same as his fellow disciples in the sect. However, he met a group of fierce people in Guangping County.
Among them, Chu Chen is especially the most cruel.
He had inquired in advance and found out that his former friend was now a fifth-grade immortal official. In addition to serving as the head of Wanquan Taoist Academy, he also served as the inspector of Wanquan and was in charge of the Wanquan Supervision Department. He was the same as his current boss, Master Tongda. class.
"Brother Chu, when others praise us for our great progress, we think it's a compliment. But when you praise us, I always feel like you're being sarcastic."
Chu Chen: "-." "Hahahaha~"
Wang Ping had a lively mind, was good at dancing, and made some jokes. The four of them talked happily, which diluted the strangeness they had not seen for many years, downplayed their Taoism and cultivation, and their status. It suddenly seemed like they were back to the days when they worked together in Guangping County.
However, the Wanquan County Rain Prayer Ceremony was about to be held. After the county governor Qi Xiuxin, the county capital master Tongda and others arrived, the four of them ended their greetings and devoted themselves to the arrangement of the rain prayer ceremony one by one.
In particular, Wang Ping, Monk Yuantong, and Lin Miaoyin had just come to Wanquan County to report, and they were all cautious and cautious, fearing to leave a bad impression on Master Tongda, the governor of the capital.
Chu Chen became more casual, and with a sway of his body, he walked towards him.
The team that arrived this time was large in number, and the leaders were not Wanquan County Governor Qi Xiuxin, County Du Guan Master Tongda, and Wanquan City God, but Yunzhou Ghosts and Gods Department General Duan Taihe Taoist and Yunzhou Taoist Academy Shan Changqing Two bamboo laymen. In addition, there were also a number of envoys from the imperial court and the Immortal Court accompanying him. Among them, there were many monks with great supernatural powers that Chu Chen didn't know. The lineup was extremely luxurious.
The reason why Yunzhou attaches so much importance to Wanquan County is also very simple.
The birthplace of the innate spirit Little White Dragon is in Wanquan County. In other words, the "source" of this natural disaster is Wanquan County.
The situation of praying for rain in Wanquan County reflects the overall disaster situation in the eight southwest states to a certain extent. It is not surprising that the governor of the state, the chief of the state Taoist Academy, and a number of high-ranking officials from the Immortal Court all took action.
Chu Chen had a very good relationship with layman Qingzhu, and had met Taoist Taoist Taihe, the governor of the state, a few days ago.
Both of them recognized Chu Chen and nodded to him, but neither of them stopped to talk to him. Instead, they asked about matters related to praying for rain on the field, vigorously and resolutely.
Chu Chen was not surprised and slowly followed behind the county governor Qi Xiuxin and Master Tongda. The rain praying ceremony has been arranged by all parties in advance.
Wherever you pray for rain, set up an altar with vegetation in order to cleanse the remote areas. The layout of the rain praying site is also very particular.
Use a canopy, one foot and five feet high, four square pillars one foot wide, one ladder, ten new tables, one new chair, one large square incense burner, one small square incense burner, and five vases. , a pair of lanterns... What are the offerings of fruits, tea, incense candles, sacred tablets, dragon tablets, mica tablets, gold ink, white roosters, etc.
When a large group of people arrived, the rain praying dojo had already been decorated.
After Taoist Taoist Taihe, the governor of Yunzhou, nodded, Qi Xiuxin, the county governor, and Master Tongda, the governor of the county as the local official, began to preside over the rain prayer ceremony.
The governor of the county cultivates his mind together, and the county capital manages everything
Master Da, in charge of the yin and yang of one side, is secretly linked to the destiny of the county. In a sense, they represent the will of a living being, and they are most suitable to host the ceremony of praying for rain, offering sacrifices to Taiyi, and appeasing the heaven and earth.
Master Qi Xiuxin and Master Tongda received the order and did not dare to delay. He quickly made the incantation, recited the "Praying for Rain and Going to the Altar Mantra" and stepped towards the high altar.
"The mandala for praying for rain looks majestic from above and majestic from below. I am here to protect you with golden light. I will guard the country of Luo with five qi. I will follow you with my killing eyes and follow my orders urgently!"
After boarding the altar, under the leadership of the two men, the monks in the field began to recite the [Clean Mouth Mantra], [Pure Body Mantra], [Pure Heart Mantra], [Pure Land Mantra], etc.
These mantras are compulsory for beginners of Taoism. Although they are simple, they are of great use.
Whether it is daily gathering of medicines, refining Qi, or practicing fasting rituals, these mantras must be recited beforehand.
Even Taoist Taihe, Qingzhu layman and other monks with great magical powers from the Immortal Court were no exception. They recited the mantras one after another, and the entire rain praying dojo became extremely quiet and solemn.
Apart from the low sounds of mantras, there was only the sound of the wind.
"The Doctrine of the Mean - Small Notes" says that if my heart is right, then the heart of heaven and earth will be right, and if my Qi is smooth, then the Qi of heaven and earth will also be right.
This statement is also very reasonable when it comes to the method of praying for rain.
Regarding the true superior method of praying for rain, you must first have your own mind upright, and then you can align with the heavenly mind.
After Master Qi Xiuxin and Master Tongda finished reciting the [Pure Land Divine Mantra], they lit the incense.
[The Tao is learned from the heart, the false incense is spread from the heart, the incense burns in the jade furnace, the heart is in front of the emperor, the true spirit is looking down, the gods shine in the court, making my heart feel pious, whatever I pray for, I will receive it as promised]
After the "Incense Blessing Mantra", Master Qi Xiuxin and Master Tongda began to write prayers, put flying seals on the table, and offered sacrifices to heaven and earth: "The universe is shaking in the east of the five ponds, the saints in the bright bottom are left with green grass, and there is rain in Kanxia Palace in Buduli. .."
After reciting some gorgeous Qingci, Master Qi Xiuxin and Master Tongda began to act as the governor of Wanquan County and the governor of the Ghost and God Department of Wanquan County, representing the human race of Wanquan County, the ghosts and gods of various places, the indigenous people from all sides, and all the billions of people under their rule. Living creatures, cry to the sky that local living beings have suffered unreasonable disasters, and pray devoutly.
Later, Taoist Taoist Taihe, the governor of Yunzhou, also ascended the altar and wrote a memorial on behalf of hundreds of millions of living beings in Yunzhou, stating the causes and consequences of the death of the innate god Xiaobailong, and analyzing the reasons that led to the death of the innate god Xiaobailong, in order to pray for the opening of the heavenly net. one side.
Later, he ordered the Wanquan County human race, demon race, and major indigenous creatures to ascend the altar and offer tributes to appease the world.
After a complicated and solemn fast, Master Qixiuxin and Master Tongda each showed their magical powers and began to pray for rain.
Both of them can pray for rain, but they are not proficient in it. If there is no natural disaster, they are expected to succeed in praying for rain. But it was unusual right now. They tried it but couldn't see any movement.
Taoist Taihe, the governor of Yunzhou, waved his hand and asked the two of them to come down, and he went up to the stage in person.
This time, the reason why the governor of other states came in person was naturally to pray for rain, and did not place their hopes on Master Tongda and others.
The practice of the monks with great supernatural powers was quite sensational.
He presses the stars of rain and dew, steps on the gang fighting steps, recites the true mantras of heaven and earth, writes the talisman of raising clouds and spreading rain, the secret of pinching clouds, dragons, winds and tigers, sending out the disc of Jiazichen hour, and controlling the power of driving thunder and controlling lightning... .
After doing this, the whole dojo suddenly became violently windy, clouds and thunder were everywhere in the sky, and the hot and dry air became vaguely moist.
As the saying goes, watch the excitement at the outer door, and watch the doorway at the inner door.
As soon as he saw this scene, Chu Chen understood that Taoist Taihe's magical power of praying for rain was quite impressive and his skills were profound. Generally speaking, there are two types of superior magical powers for praying for rain.
One is to summon the dragon god and water god to rain. The second type is mainly based on thunder method.
The Lei method of praying for rain emphasizes the role of one's own body, treating one's own body as a small world. The Qi of the five internal organs in the body interacts with the Qi of the five elements in the outside world. Taking one's own Dantian as the "Bitan", and transporting the Yuan Qi to the mud pill is to absorb the Bitan. On the water is the Tianhe River.
Once the human heart and the heavenly heart are in harmony, the water of the heavenly river can be diverted and the rain will fall.
The [Rain Prayer] magical power that Taihe Taoist is currently using is the latter, and he is using the thunder method to pray for rain.
Taihe Road, the capital of the state
The thunder technique used by people is extremely powerful, the wind and clouds change color, the heaven and earth respond, and there is a faint tendency to connect the Tianhe River...
However, it was of no use.
Although the thunder was loud, there was still no rain falling.
When Taoist Taihe saw this, he was neither surprised nor discouraged. He stood on the altar, stepped on the Gang Dou Steps over and over again, operated the thunder method, read the rainfall talisman, and tried his best to use his magical power to pray for rain.
However, things went against expectations. Taoist Taihe had exhausted all his magic power, his consciousness became weak, and no rain fell.
Immediately afterwards, Master Qingzhu, the head of the state Taoist temple, took over from Taoist Taihe and continued to use his magical power to pray for rain.
Qingzhu layman's magical power of "Praying for Rain" is to think of his own soul to go to the sea and drive the dragon. If there is no obstruction from heaven, he can really travel around the world and drive the dragon to rain.
Perhaps because of the different supernatural powers of [Praying for Rain], layman Qingzhu did not cause much commotion.
However, Chu Chen's spiritual consciousness was powerful, and he vaguely felt a powerful and violent fluctuation of spiritual consciousness in Master Qingzhu, as if Master Qingzhu was fighting something.
Silent, yet intense.
After about half a stick of incense, layman Qingzhu woke up, groaned, and looked depressed. "Failed again!"
When everyone in the rain-praying dojo saw this scene, although they didn't say anything depressing on their lips, they lamented in their hearts and felt very depressed.
layman Qingzhu came down leisurely, and soon, another monk with great magical power from Xianting came to the altar and continued to pray for rain. After failing to appease the world, this is a battle with the sky, seeking a "ray of hope" in the face of natural disasters. The little kid watched people in the rain praying dojo constantly failing to pray for rain, and couldn't help but ask.
"Senior brother, when shall we go up?"
