The birthday ceremony is a formal ceremony of the Xuanyin Sect. Apart from the master who presides over the ceremony and his disciples, only the most devout believers are eligible to participate. Of course, as an outer disciple of Yu Ci's Lichen Sect, he can find a seat to watch the ceremony, as long as he is not afraid of trouble.
Yu Ci had no intention of looking for trouble, and he didn’t want to join in the fun. He didn’t even enter the main hall. Instead, he came to the "Xuan Yin Chuan Monument" lined up on both sides to admire the monument. There is a legend about Xuanyin Shangxian becoming a Taoist.
Most of the biographies of immortals in the world are similar, and this biography of Xuanyin is no exception. There is nothing special about the mysterious and mysterious stories coupled with moral preaching, and occasionally inserting a few beautiful words to cultivate the fairy spirit.
However, on the second stele on the west side, there is a string of words that can attract the attention of those who are interested. The actual meaning is nothing more than that the Xuanyin Master met the "King of Rakshasa" before he became enlightened, and sat with him to discuss the Dao. , discovering the ultimate truth of something, having sudden enlightenment and so on.
What Yu Ci cares about is the word "King of Rakshasa".
In fact, he is the Rakshasa Ghost King.
Before coming to Cliff City, Yu Ci also did his homework and had a grasp of the situation of various forces in Cliff City. Among them, the Xuanyin Sect and the Purifying Water Altar were the most important ones for him to understand. In his opinion, Jingshuitan's cover-up methods were very powerful. In the Lichen Sect's information, his profound background could not be found, and he could only talk about it as an ordinary sect. On the other hand, the Xuanyin Sect has no intention of covering up the forces behind it.
The East China Sea Rakshasa Sect is a sect founded by the clone of Toukong, the Rakshasa Ghost King, one of the kings in the Blood Hell Ghost Mansion. And this Rakshasa Ghost King was one of the two culprits who fought fiercely in the Sky Rift Valley, destroyed the circle of species in the valley, and caused the demons to wreak havoc.
Although there is no evidence that the Rakshasa Ghost King did it intentionally at that time, the disaster was already done, and the Rakshasa Ghost King naturally formed a relationship with the Lichen Sect.
Actually, it is not accurate to say that it is Liang Zi. The Lichen Sect is still a little wary of this king from another world, and the Rakshasa Ghost King is a famously lazy person. He is always pursuing excitement, loves the new and hates the old, and is playful and forgetful—— At least on the surface. If the Li Chen Sect went out to investigate the crime with great fanfare, and fought all the way to the deepest part of the Blood Hell Ghost Mansion, and after the two sides fought to the death, that person might even ask inexplicably:
What are you doing here?
That scene is terrifying just thinking about it...
This is Li You's vivid description when talking about Rakshasa Cult before. And this is the consensus among people in the spiritual community regarding the temperament of the Rakshasa Ghost King.
What a strange guy. With such a temperament, how did she establish a huge foundation in both the spiritual world and the Blood Hell Ghost Mansion? How did she get such a vicious reputation as the Rakshasa Ghost King?
In any case, it is certain that the force behind the Xuanyin Sect is the Rakshasa Sect. And due to the incident in the Sky Rift Valley, it is difficult for the two sides to have further communication. The Xuanyin Sect has been established here for ten years, but it can still only develop followers among the common people. This background is not unrelated.
Yu Ci carefully searched for words related to the Rakshasa Ghost King on the monument, but he forgot that his dress was also very eye-catching, attracting the attention of others, and soon attracted the attention of interested people. Finally, when he turned back to read the inscription a second time, someone stopped him.
"Fellow Taoist, please."
Yu Ci turned around and saw that the person who came was a middle-aged woman. She was no longer young, but her face was very kind. Her long gray hair was simply **** and draped behind her head. She was wearing a large burqa. She was from the Xuanyin Sect. The costume of the legendary magician. Yu Ci was deeply impressed by this person: "It turns out to be Master Minglan."
The person who came was none other than Ming Lan, the Xuanyin Sect’s chief magic transmitter. To say that the two of them had never met before, Minglan glanced at Yu Ci's face, and then looked at the birdcage in his hand, confirming that he looked very familiar, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused:
"This fellow Taoist, have we met before?"
Of course Yu Ci would not say, "I have seen you many times in Zhaoshentu." He just smiled slightly and said, "I have always heard the name of Master Ming. How lucky I am to see you today."
Not giving Ming Lan any time to guess, he introduced himself: "Li Chen Sect, Yu Ci."
At that moment, Ming Lan was a little surprised, but soon she smiled: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Yu. The news came from Guizong the day before yesterday, saying that Fellow Daoist was handling matters in Cliff City, and I didn't expect to arrive today."
"Where, Master Xie has the final say on all major matters, I'm just helping from the side."
Yu Ci knew that Yu Zhou had taken the first step to save face for him. Under such circumstances, people like Bai Rifu would never dare to pretend to be confused, which would be detrimental to him. However, his words were still impeccable. After speaking in an understatement, he took the initiative to go to Xuanyin Shangxian's birthday puja, praised the scene of the puja twice, and changed the subject again:
"Your religion has been taking root here for ten years, and the teaching industry is already prospering. What do you think of this cliff city?"
Bright blue eyes focused on his face, seeming to explore the thoughts in his heart, and finally smiled again: "Under the rule of Guizong, it is very peaceful and comfortable. But compared to the vastness of the world of cultivation, people like Daoist Fellow Yu , maybe it feels small and cramped again. As for others, maybe they have another idea..."
Her answer was tactful, but she didn’t know who the “other people” referred to?
Yu Ci also smiled: "It is true that everyone is different. Speaking of which, I have met your master once, but I don't know what Master Chiyin thinks?"
"I think the master is willing to discuss this issue with fellow Taoist fellow Taoist monks. Why don't I wait for a while, wait until the Dharma conference is over, and then discuss it with the master in detail."
"It's good to be willing to discuss it, but there is a long way to go, so there is no need to rush it."
With Yu Ci’s status at this time, he can be regarded as the representative of the Lichen Sect, so it would be okay for the Chiyin Fairy to come out to greet him. However, Yu Ci's visit to Youqiu Palace was only a temporary one, and he had more temptations. Judging from the information from the Lichen Sect and what he observed from the Sky Rift Valley, Wanling Sect, Xuanyin Sect and Jingshui Altar seem to have some tacit understanding against the Bairi Mansion - at least at the cliff This is the case at the city level.
This is where he can start, and he might as well make a few remarks.
As for the Fairy Chiyin, she has to deal with her sooner or later, so there is really no rush.
Chong Minglan nodded and Yu Ci left.
Watching Yu Ci walk out of the palace gate, Minglan stood there for a while before going to the middle courtyard. The closer you get to the middle courtyard, the clearer the sound of chanting becomes. The vibration of vitality is as real as the rising tide of sea water, rushing over layer by layer. Walking in it, feeling the pious thoughts of the believers, Ming Lan also closes his eyes and chants the scriptures silently. Thought it echoed.
Except for the six great gods in this world, Buddha and Dao Zun are symbols close to nothingness. The other four all have immortal bodies and immeasurable magical powers. Although this world is vast, as long as the believers have pious thoughts, the **** master can respond to it. If they are interested, they can also rely on it and invest their divine will. A distance of hundreds of millions of miles can be reached in just an instant.
From this perspective, the God Lord is omniscient and omnipotent.
After more than a hundred years of practice, Minglan is always bathed in grace and power, and his devotion to the Lord of God is flawless. For this reason, she could give up the opportunity to practice further and grow old, but she would still be happy in her heart.
Seeing the pure intentions of the Dharma gathering believers at this time, she was also happy in her heart. But when she entered the middle courtyard and saw the figure leading the believers in chanting sutras on the altar of the Dharma Assembly, she frowned. He did not stop in the middle courtyard, but bypassed the crowd of people chanting sutras and bowing, and went deeper into the palace.
After walking two steps into the courtyard, the sound of chanting sutras was obscured by the high bamboo walls and gradually became inaudible. There were also few people around, making it increasingly quiet. Ming Lan was familiar with the road and turned back several times in the winding corridor. He saw two maids from the church standing quietly in front of them, guarding the door.
Seeing Minglan coming over, the two girls bowed and saluted. Ming Lanyuan still had a smile on her face: "Is the master in there?"
"The master is taking a nap in the house."
The two girls were well aware of Minglan's status in the church and did not dare to stop her. They opened the door for her gently and Minglan stepped in.
The house is divided into two rooms separated by a bead curtain. Through the bead curtain, you can also see the smoke flowing from the half-person-high Boshan stove inside. The whole room is filled with a layer of warm fragrance. As soon as you enter, you feel warm and cozy all over your body. Even your internal organs seem to be filled with the fragrance and warmth, which is extremely comfortable.
There is still a waiter outside. She is a pretty girl in a green shirt with double buns. She is very cute and well-behaved. Seeing it was Minglan, he saluted in surprise, and then whispered softly: "The master performed the 'sacrifice ceremony' in the inner room and just fell asleep."
Minglan nodded slightly, without saying a word, opened the bead curtain and entered the inner room.
Smoke curls up from the mouth of the incense burner. Across the incense burner, a few feet further forward, there is an agarwood corridor with gold-painted steps made by the craftsmen of the East China Sea. Inside the small cloister room is the bed, and there are several maids squatting or standing, accompanying them in the small cloister. It is extremely magnificent.
Separated by layers of fine gauze curtains, the slender body lying on its side on the couch is faint and blurry, but cannot be seen clearly. There was a maid beside the couch, beating her legs and kneading her feet to relieve her fatigue.
Looking at all this, Minglan said calmly: "How is the master?"
The room was quiet for a long time before the voice of Fairy Chiyin, which seemed to have metallic magnetism, came out: "It turns out to be Master Ming, please sit down."
As soon as she finished speaking, the maid in green clothes from outside brought an embroidered pier over and placed it in front of the bed. Ming Lan thanked her and sat down. At this point, she was still nearly ten feet away from the Chiyin fairy behind the curtain.
No longer waiting for Fairy Chiyin to speak, Minglan said: "Disciples from the new sect of Lichen Sect came just now..."
Reciting the conversation between Yu Ci and her, Ming Lan added: "This Yu Ci is young, but he is very extraordinary. Previously, when he was in Tian Rift Valley, he had enmity with Bai Ri Mansion and attracted Tu Du. He was chased in person, but he still escaped. Instead, Tu Du was led into a place where demons gathered, and he returned with serious injuries. At this time, he became a disciple of the outer chamber and came to preside over the cliff. City affairs must be something done..."
"The person in charge of the affairs of Cliff City is Old Taoist Yu Zhou; the person in charge of the affairs nearby is that weirdo Xie Yan. What's the use of him being an outside disciple?"
After hearing Chi Yin's response, Minglan frowned slightly. Before she could say anything more, she heard Chi Yin's voice from behind the curtain had turned cold: "Murong has smoothed the chaos once he came here, and the two of them The family **** master also has a tacit understanding. The matter of the Rift Valley has been settled today. When the ten years are up, I will return to the East China Sea to continue practicing. I will leave the trivial matters here to the person who succeeds me and don't bother me again! ”
Ming Lan was silent for a while, and then asked: "So what about what was agreed before?"
"That thing?"
Chiyin forgot his previous impatience in a blink of an eye, and a smile came out from behind the curtain: "I will naturally make an end. I have taken care of him for many years, and before returning to the East China Sea, I gave him a ruined family as a thank you gift. ”
