Take yourself to the altar

Chapter 30 [030] Obtained Dharma Protector, Hongming retreats

"Fu Xu, Fu Chen—"

"Master, the disciple is here!"

"Change the dharma robes for the master, set up the altar to worship, and all the disciples and I will welcome the return of the Dharma Protector of our sect, and make a public announcement for nine days!"

"Yes, master!" Fu Xu bowed to accept the order, and Fu Chen beside him was dumbfounded, even though what he saw just now made him faintly aware that he had caused trouble.It wasn't until Hongming finished saying this that Fu Chen knew what had happened, and couldn't help but blurted out: "Master, that vicious female ghost is going to be the 'Dharma Protector General'?!"

Hongming looked sternly: "Nonsense! How can you be so indifferent when facing Qingxuan Dharma Protector? You will be fined to copy the scriptures of this sect ten times and offer it to the Dharma Protector as an apology!" Fu Chen kept silent and agreed with a bitter face.Only then did Hongming turn around and judge the head: "The little boy is stubborn, don't blame the law protector! If he dares to commit another crime, the law protector will punish him!"

Qingxuan shook her head lightly, indicating that she didn't care.

He just noticed that when Fu Chen secretly looked at him, he showed a meaningful and strange smile, which made him tremble in shock, as if his whole body was in pain again.

Feng Yu patted him on the shoulder, and cast a sympathetic look—you little clever bastard, you got a reverse reputation on the first day you returned to the position of Dharma Protector, so please be blessed in the future!
Not long after, the altar was set up, and the sacrificial ceremony began under the auspices of Taoist priest Hongming, who was wearing a gorgeous cassock.

Both Feng Yu and Lin Hu participated in such an orthodox Taoist ritual for the first time, and they learned to be strict and serious.And Qingxuan, who was originally the rightful master, was sitting on the railing of the corridor in the courtyard not far away, as if she was out of the way, and there was a hint of interest in her empty and gloomy eyes.

She felt like she was watching a farce.

Especially when she was facing a stone statue with her own appearance, it made her feel even more funny. After putting the bluestone into the stone statue, it became her residence.The scene in front of her was like a group of people facing the noise of her residence, singing and dancing very funny.

But gradually, Qingxuan felt a strange feeling coming to her heart.

It was a recognition that contained shelter, inheritance, and evidence, a closer connection. She was like a kite that was swayed by the wind and rain, but now it was tied to a place again, and a place made her feel rare. Somewhere warm and safe.

Qingxuan's perception is not an illusion.

The sacrificial ceremony presided over by Daoist Hongming this time was originally for her.In simple words, it is to give "identity authentication" to the "Dharma Protector" of our sect, and it will be announced for nine days.With the certification, Qingxuan is no longer a wandering ghost, and the ghosts of the underworld will not arrest her if they encounter her, and the Taoist disciples who also serve Sanqing will recognize her identity.

Even if one day, Qingxuan ascends to the upper realm and bumps into the ancestors of the Shenxiao Sect, she will also be regarded as her own caretaker.This is the identity brought by the "Protector of the Dharma", which is not only an inheritance, but also means finding an organization and a backstage!

It's just that some births were not at the right time. Now that the immortals and Buddhas have passed away, Taoism and Buddhism are all too busy to take care of themselves. The role of "backstage background" is no longer as grand and vast as it was in the past many years.

Qingxuan was superficial at first, and she didn't know the benefits beyond these agreements.

What she values ​​most is still the inheritance of Taoist ghost cultivation, and the benefits that staying here brings to her spiritual growth.And Daoist Hongming and Qingyun Guan will not be at a disadvantage. He was originally optimistic about the smooth future of the other party, and the luck that faintly represents after that.

As long as Qingxuan stays in Qingyun Temple, it is beneficial in itself.As time goes by, after the two parties are familiar with and trust each other, they gradually develop a close relationship, forming a win-win situation.

Daoist Hongming burns prayers.

Then he took out a single stick of incense, ignited it with a breath, and inserted it into the altar incense burner.

The curling green smoke is thin but not scattered, slowly rising.

Qingxuan, who was sitting next to her and seemed to have nothing to do with herself, suddenly raised her brows, with a vivid expression of surprise and greed on her face.Then she seemed a little impatient, and took a long breath like "sucking", and her back was red, her eyes were intoxicated, and she was very cute.

Following her uninterrupted breath, the stick of incense that had just been inserted in the incense burner burned to the bottom at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Hong Ming felt a little helpless, not surprising, and continued with the unfinished business.

Qingxuan broke out of the intoxication, licked her lips with unsatisfactory content, feeling more and more satisfied in her heart.Just now it was a stick of "Soul Concentrating Incense", which was made of special yin materials and was specially used to condense the soul. It is an extremely rare treasure in the common world, and it can be used for sudden death in terror. Into the body resurrection.

For ghost cultivators, it is delicious food, which can help the soul and body to condense, and is also quite precious.

Qingxuan's torment has not stopped since her death, where has she tasted such a taste?Only then did he react involuntarily, which made him seem a little greedy.

After a while, the sacrificial ritual was over.

Qingxuan needs to follow Hongming's words and move the stone statue to the side hall on the left side of the main hall, which will be the "Dharma Guardian Temple" after Qingyun Temple.Passing by the main hall, seeing the statue enshrined in the altar of the main hall, Qingxuan looked solemn, stopped and bowed respectfully.

She remembered the majestic breath of Zhenjun's divine power.

Without this power, even if she was able to escape into the bluestone at the beginning, she would eventually be refined by the large formation and completely perish in the world.After getting up, Qingxuan turned around, bowed to Feng Yu again, and then turned into a breeze and flew towards the side hall. In the blink of an eye, there was a lifelike stone statue on the vacant altar in the side hall.

Feng Yu looked at the stone statue, and said with some emotion: "I didn't expect that she still chose to stay."

Hongming nodded lightly: "Now that the opportunity has been blinded and the chaos has become apparent, it is a wise and beneficial choice for her to stay in the observation, whether it is for her or Qingyun Temple." His eyes moved slightly, and he caught a glimpse of the two disciples next to him, Sui said, "Have you finished your homework for today, and are you still staying here to waste time?"

Fu Xu and Fu Chen immediately fell silent and wanted to leave.

Hongming remembered something, and called them back: "Wait a minute—" He turned to the other side, "Lin Hu, come here." Lin Hu was taken aback, and hurried forward to answer, "Master!" Hongming said: "You have never been in contact with spiritual practice. Before doing your homework, you have to learn the basics first. Fu Xu, Lin Hu's basic common sense, let you teach it first."

Fu Xu nodded: "Yes, master, this disciple takes orders!"

Lin Hu also said: "Thank you uncle, thank you brother!"

Fu Chen hurriedly said: "Master, disciples can also help!"

Hongming stared at him and saw that he didn't seem to be making trouble, so he nodded: "Yes." Then he said: "Lin Hu, you should study hard for one month first, and after one month you pass the exam, then I will ask you It’s not too late to ask Master to practice.”

Lin Hu responded naturally.

Only then did Hong Ming say to Feng Yu, "What do you think, Junior Brother?" Feng Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He himself still had a lot of foundations to start with, and Hong Ming obviously thought of this before making up his mind for him.After one month, Feng Yu will be far ahead of Lin Hu, and there will be no delay in preaching the Dharma.

"Senior brother is very considerate, exactly as it should be!"

For the rest of the time, Hong Ming spent most of his time answering questions with Feng Yu.

After another day, everything was ready, and Hongming went to the back mountain to start retreat.

After closing the heavy stone gate, the entire affairs of Qingyun Temple fell on Feng Yu.Of course, there are few people in Qingyun Temple, and once Senior Brother Hongming retreats, there are only four people and one ghost left. Usually, each person has their own affairs and homework to do, which makes the temple quite quiet.

Moreover, there are plenty of elixirs commonly used in the temple, and there are also sufficient reserves of food for occasional use. On weekdays, it is only necessary to preside over the crowd and don't forget to offer incense to the gods.

Well, although every time he leads others to worship him, he feels weird.I can only comfort myself, maybe I will get used to it if I worship more in the future, right?
And that Qingxuan hid in the stone statue all day long, only when she lit the "soul-condensing incense", she would show up for a moment, swallow the incense in one gulp, and then go back immediately.Looking at her hurried and busy appearance, she should also be concentrating on cultivation recently.

After straightening out the already simple daily affairs, Feng Yu also began to immerse himself in the practice of supplementing the basics.

So the sun rises and the moon sets, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, January passed.

After completing the basics, Feng Yu made great progress in understanding the "Inner Tiangang Juefa".If it wasn't for the unhealed meridian injury before, he could have completely mastered this secret formula, reserved the place in the divine seal, and can practice step by step on his own in the future.

Lin Hu practiced very attentively and assiduously, and he also perfected the basics in one month. Feng Yu then passed on the talismans and true formulas to him, and practiced diligently with his two younger brothers every day.After getting along for a month, the four people in the audience are already familiar with each other, and they feel much closer to each other.

However, Daoist Hongming, who has been in seclusion for a month, still hasn't heard anything.

Feng Yu knew that his senior brother was quite sure, but he still couldn't avoid worrying in his heart.

One day.

Fu Xu went to Feng Yu's residence and knocked on the courtyard door: "Is Uncle Master there?"

"Fu Xu, come in." Feng Yu went out in response, "Why, what's the matter?"

Fu Xu smiled and said: "Uncle, we picked some mountain delicacies today, and made a few dishes with the sour bamboo shoots soaked a while ago, let's try it together?"

"Bigudan" maintains daily consumption, and the food is the appetite of the appetite, which does not affect each other.Just take the "Bigu Pill", and you won't have too much desire to eat, only when the potency of the pill is exhausted, it is an excellent time to enjoy delicious food.

"Oh? Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"

Now this season is a good time to enjoy winter bamboo shoots.I haven't eaten for a long time, and my mouth is dull, just to satisfy my craving.The Guanli kitchen is in the area where the disciple lives. When Feng Yu and Fu Xu arrived, the other two were already waiting at the table.

After getting acquainted with each other, the four of them didn't have so many formalities.

Feng Yu greeted them to take their seats quickly.A table of food, delicious mountain delicacies, delicious sour bamboo shoots, Feng Yu ate a full meal with rice, very satisfied.Just after dinner, Feng Yu was stopped again, this time it was Fu Chen, he pulled Feng Yu and said mysteriously: "Master, what you asked us to make before is already ready, why don't Master check it out? "

"Oh?"

Feng Yu suddenly became interested, "Let's go, take me to see!"

There are many bamboos on the mountain, the last time Feng Yu picked bamboo shoots for cooking, Feng Yu wanted to get some materials and make a deck chair.But he is not good at doing it himself, but Lin Hu and Fu Chen are quite interested.He did it once, but it didn't achieve the effect Feng Yu wanted, so he put forward suggestions for improvement, and at the same time offered a reward, promising that if they can make changes to his satisfaction, he will pass on a unique secret technique to them afterwards.

Out of curiosity about the unique secret technique, Fu Xu also joined in.

The three guys have been busy for a long time, and today they just asked Feng Yu to check together to see if they are satisfied.
