Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As a new disciple, Zhao Ran¡¯s ordination involves two rituals. The first is to become a disciple. After obtaining the qualifications to be ordained, he will go to the Huode Xingjun Hall to be ordained.

    The urn is an ultimatum that communicates with immortals and gods, summons divine servants, and casts spells. After being given the urn, a Taoist monk can ascend to heaven. According to the Taoist sect, he has the priesthood. The so-called "Qing Ci can reach heaven." Therefore,  God can be seen in the way he performs.

    The burial ceremony is an extremely solemn fasting ceremony. It is not a superficial effort that Zhao Ran did in Guyang County a few years ago. It requires many objects, especially the key link that needs to be carried out around the statue of Lord Huodexing. Therefore, it must be carried out in  It is held in Huode Xingjun Palace.

    Hua Yun Pavilion has been established for more than 700 years. The destiny god of the first founder of the pavilion was Huode Xingjun, so Huodexingjun is the main statue of the Zhaijiu in the Taoist temple.  The main color of the hall is fiery red. Above the shrine in the middle stands Luo Xuan, Lord of the Three Qi Fire Virtues of the South, holding the Mother of Lihuo in his hand. His beard and hair are all red, and his face is majestic.  On the east and west sides are the five righteous gods of the Ministry of Fire: Zhu Zhao, the tail fire tiger, Gao Zhen, the room fire pig, Fang Gui, the fire monkey, King Jiao, the winged fire snake, and Liu Huan, the heavenly king who receives the fire.

    The statue of Huode Xingjun in Huayun Pavilion has been worshiped for more than seven hundred years and has already possessed spiritual effects. Zhao Ran just entered the temple and felt that his whole body was as hot as falling into a cave of fire, but there was no sweat all over his body.  It's mysterious.

    The conferment ceremony requires the presence of three masters, namely the transmitter, the supervisor, and the recommender.  Before Zhao Ran entered the palace, his senior brother Wei Zhizhen gave him a brief introduction. The transmitter is the presiding officer of the rituals, and is served by Elder Yan; the supervisor is the supervisor of the rituals, and is personally served by Elder Xiahou;  The recommender is the recommender of the disciples who are to be appointed. This role should have been played by Zhao Ran's cheap master Jiang Tenghe, but Jiang Tenghe "happened" to be in seclusion, so his senior brother Wei Zhizhen took over the role.

    Wei Zhizhen went out first and recommended Zhao Ran to Elder Yan, the translator, in front of representatives of the disciples who were watching the ceremony. He claimed that Zhao Ran met all the conditions and specifically applied for examination by the elders.

    There are a total of seven elders in Huayun Pavilion, and now there are five. Among them, Elder Yan is the transmitter and Elder Xiahou is the supervisor. So the remaining three elders formed an "assessment group" to assess Zhao Ran's homework classics.  This item is very simple. It probably involves extracting a certain passage from primary classics such as the Tao Te Ching, the Book of Saviors, and the Morning and Evening Work Sutra, and asking Zhao Ran to recite the next paragraph or explain it.  Zhao Ran seemed to have returned to the days when he was studying in the Sutra Hall of Wuji Academy. While reciting answers, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Zhimeng in the crowd on the east side.

    Some elders occasionally asked questions about Taoist books such as "Shangqing Jue" and "Justice Talismans", and Zhao Ran answered them one by one without any problem.  These books are the introductory books for monk Zhengyi. Zhuo Tengyun and Zhuo Tengyi have taught the books to Zhao Ran a long time ago. At this moment, it seems that Huayun Pavilion should be well aware of this.

    After checking the things in the book, the elders checked Zhao Ran's Qihai. After that, he signaled to everyone in the hall that Zhao Ran had met the conditions to enter the Taoist realm and could start refining.

    So the deliverer, Elder Yan, handed Zhao Ran a copy of the Qingci. After Zhao Ran washed his hands and face, he took the Qingci, read it sincerely, and presented it to the statue of Lord Huodexing.  After Zhao Ran finished reciting, he bowed three times. The green words in his hand suddenly rose slowly and turned into a ball of hot flames at a height of one foot, and suddenly sank into the eyebrows of the Xingjun statue.

    Elder Yan ordered people to place an iron table on which various spiritual fruits, spiritual wines, and various ingredients were enshrined. Zhao Ran opened his eyes and saw that these objects exuded strong spiritual energy and were really good things.  Zhao Ran knew that this table of things was a huge waste of money, and he was getting an advantage this time.

    The messenger, Elder Yan, called on everyone to bow to the statue of Xingjun. After three times of worship, the things on the altar table began to burn. In Zhao Rantian's eyes, he could see that the spiritual energy in them was condensing towards the statue, and finally entered the forehead of the statue.

    The fire burned quickly, and in a blink of an eye there was only a layer of ashes left on the altar table. Elder Yan took out a document and placed it on the altar table, signaling Zhao Ran to invite incense.  Zhao Ran ordered three pillars of high-quality incense, and as soon as he inserted them into the incense burner, he saw a red flame fly out from the eyebrows of the Xingjun statue, got into the document, and printed a flame seal on the signature of the document.

    Zhao Ran knelt down and worshiped under the ultimatum and recited the "Singing Sutra" once. Then Master Yan asked the supervisor, Elder Xiahou, and Elder Xiahou agreed. Master Yan then patted the ultimatum on the table into Zhao Ran's body - it was  Yes, the document was taken from between Zhao Ran's eyebrows by Elder Yan. As soon as it touched the skin, it melted into Zhao Ran's body. Zhao Ran was stunned and felt that there seemed to be something more in the sea of ??qi, but unfortunately he had not reached the realm yet.  , cannot see inside, so it is impossible to detect everything in the body.

    At the end of the ceremony, Master Yan, on behalf of Huayun Hall, presented various magical instruments to Zhao Ran, a newly promoted Taoist priest, including tokens, flags, scriptures, Taoist uniforms, etc., and explained their functions to Zhao Ran.

    The token can be used to convey messages. If Zhao Ran needs to report something urgent to the Huayun Pavilion, he can leave his spiritual thoughts on the token and then drive the token to fly back to the Huayun Pavilion. Zhao Ran has many times beforeI have seen Uncle Da Zhuo and Xiao Zhuo "shaking a white light from their sleeves with a shake of their hands and flashing towards the sky." The white light is actually a token, which has the opposite effect of the communication talisman, but it can be used repeatedly.  , just inject mana into it when using it.

    The command flag is a defensive weapon. For example, when Zhao Ran spends the night in the wild, if he puts the command flag next to him, he can form a protective shield within a few feet around him, keeping poisonous insects and beasts away.  Of course it can be used against enemies like this, but at most it can only be used against people in the martial arts world. When encountering someone who knows some magic, it is questionable how reliable this thing is.

    The scriptures are actually the three Taoist books given to Zhao Ran by uncles Dazhuo and Xiaozhuo before, "The Talisman of Justice", "Shangqing Jue" and "The Making of Utensils", but this time they were specially made by Huayun Pavilion.  The Taoist book, a magic weapon, can be poured into your mind by placing it on your forehead. However, what Zhao Ran got before was the handwritten copy of Uncle Xiao Zhuo, and he had to read and recite it page by page.

    The other one is a Taoist robe.  Zhao Ran is now a monk. Although he is just a "Taoist" who has just crossed the threshold, compared with the lay people, he seems to be worlds apart.  The Taoist robe given to Zhao Ran by Huayun Pavilion was made of golden dragon thread, mixed with a small amount of sky silk. It could not be penetrated by ordinary weapons and was not afraid of water and fire. It was a good treasure.  There is a flame sewn on the hem corner of the Taoist robe, indicating that he is a first-level Taoist priest.  If Zhao Ran enters the Taoist realm in the future, his flames will increase to two.

    Zhao Ran is very satisfied, very very satisfied. In fact, for Taoism, the difference between entry-level disciples and registered disciples is only in name. Other living and material treatment are not much different. Of course, registered disciples cannot get  The inheritance of the master's mantle, the way the master teaches and the content he teaches all depend on his mood. When he is in a good mood, he will give more advice. When he is in a bad mood, it is common not to see him for half a year.

    At the end of the ceremony, several elders left one after another, and the disciple representatives who came to watch also disappeared in the blink of an eye.  For Huayun Pavilion, Zhao Ran's conferment consumed a large amount of spiritual items and also used a share of faith power. It was a big deal, but for most disciples, it was not an earth-shattering event.  Each of the eighteen masters of the Huayun Pavilion has his or her own affairs to attend to. Being ordered to come to watch the ceremony is just a courtesy. After returning, some of these disciple representatives will say a few words to their master and fellow disciples.  , those who talk less don¡¯t even mention it.

    Three fellow seniors, Wei Zhizhen, Yu Zhichuan and Luo Zhiqing, stayed behind and took Zhao Ran to Lingjian Pavilion.  Lingjian Pavilion is the residence of Jiang Tenghe's family, located in the west of the blessed land of Huayun Pavilion.  After passing through countless pavilions and palaces, crossing countless small bridges and streams, Zhao Ran finally followed the three senior brothers to Lingjian Pavilion.

    Several laymen came up and greeted Zhao Ran under the guidance of Wei Zhizhen. From now on, Zhao Ran can be regarded as a member of Lingjian Pavilion, and he still has the right to speak. These laymen are naturally extremely enthusiastic.  .  The three senior brothers all wanted to practice, so Wei Zhizhen asked Zhao Ran to take a rest first and talk about anything tomorrow, so Zhao Ran was led into an empty room by several laymen, saying that this would be Zhao Ran's residence from now on.

    Zhao Ran was already so sleepy that he fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed. This was not unusual. He would do this every time there was a promotion document, and this time was no exception.
