One Qi Chaoyang

Chapter 69:68: Lotus Ceremony

Outside, a gentle breeze blew through the treetops and into the room, but the lamp on the Taoist woman's table remained motionless.

After hearing Zhao Fuyun's answer, she immediately said, "Okay, then it's confirmed, Jiguanling, the stargazing dojo."

After the female Taoist priest finished speaking, she took out a book and turned to the page where Zhao Fuyun's name was already written. There were already a lot of words written on it. He glanced at it and saw the time he was admitted to the hospital, etc., and then added: "Jiguanling, the stargazing Taoist temple."

"Come, sign your name yourself." The female Taoist handed over the brush, and Zhao Fuyun bent down and wrote his name.

The female Taoist priest continued, "You can go to the Dharma Collection Building to read tonight, or you can meditate and practice on the Elephant Back Mountain, or you can go to Jiguanling now."

As she spoke, she packed up her things, put the booklets in the drawer, and took out a brass bell and gave it to him. On the bell were the words "Jiguanaling" and "Guanxing".

"This is the Qingxin Bell. If you hang it at the door, it means someone lives here. This copper bell can also help to purify the mind and exorcise evil spirits."

Zhao Fuyun took it, and she turned around and picked up the lamp on the table.

This is leaving.

Zhao Fuyun naturally stepped out and asked, "What's your name, Senior Sister?"

"My name is Huang Ying, and I gave myself a Taoist name called Huo Ling. You can call me Huo Ling." said the female Taoist.

"Senior Sister Huo Ling, I'm sorry to bother you today." Zhao Fuyun readily called her Huo Ling.

"It's okay, it's okay. Senior Sister's Lotus Ceremony may not be over yet. I'll go over and take a look. I think I can still eat something." Huang Ying said as she locked the door. Suddenly she turned around and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Uh, no." Zhao Fuyun said.

"Then you have to find food by yourself. I can't take you with me." Huang Ying said quickly.

"It's okay, just go ahead, senior sister. I've been practicing fasting." Zhao Fuyun said.

"It's time to fast. You don't need to eat during fasting. You don't need to..." Huang Ying stopped talking here and said, "I'm leaving first!"

After she finished speaking, she took the lamp and ran in one direction like a little rabbit in the night wind.

Zhao Fuyun had no plans to go to the stargazing temple on Jiguanling, nor did he go to the Dharma Storage Building. Instead, he walked around in Xiangbei Mountain.

Looking up, I saw the sky. Today is the beginning of the month, so there is no moon. But the sky is cloudless, so it is full of stars.

The Elephant Back Mountain under the starlight had a different kind of beauty. He saw many buildings glowing in the night sky.

When the wind blows, the sound of wind chimes can be heard from time to time, which makes people feel relaxed and peaceful.

Occasionally, three or two chirping sounds could be heard from the sparse trees on Elephant Back Mountain.

I also saw some people sitting cross-legged on some rocks in meditation.

Although Zhao Fuyun has not yet practiced the techniques after building the foundation, he knows that it will never be wrong to enter a state of meditation, sink his mind into the talisman seeds, and feel the magical powers brought by the talisman seeds.

Entering into a state of meditation does not mean practicing magical powers, so everyone is quiet and peaceful.

Of course, when he was standing on the Elephant Back Mountain, he saw rays of light circling in the sky from the opposite mountain. He knew that someone was attracting the power of the stars.

Man has three treasures: essence, energy and spirit; heaven has three treasures: sun, moon and stars; earth has three treasures: water, fire and wind.

The sky is full of stars today. Zhao Fuyun feels that the mountain opposite is filled with starlight, among which there is a cluster of starlight that is particularly dazzling, as if a star has fallen into the valley.

There was a gleam of fire in Zhao Fuyun's eyes. The "evil-breaking" and "light" in the talisman made his eyes no longer easily deceived.

He saw clearly that there was a star flag in the cluster of starlight.

Star Banner is the general term for this type of banner that can draw the power of the stars. As for the specific name of this Star Banner, Zhao Fuyun doesn't know, but he knows that it must be a good magical weapon.

A good magic weapon must be compatible with one's own magic power and the supernatural powers brought by one's own talisman seeds. Therefore, controlling the magic weapon to cast spells must allow one's own abilities to become more vast or more subtle, and to be displayed between heaven and earth.

The purpose of a magic weapon is to serve as a bridge between heaven and earth, allowing one to communicate more easily while also playing a protective role when being attacked by the enemy.

He looked at the mountainside, where someone stood on the top of a tree, collecting the starlight drawn down by the Star Banner, and a little bit of light fell into that person's body. Of course, there were not only people collecting starlight on this mountain, but also people collecting the power of the moon. It was just that the starlight was the brightest today, so that person was the most conspicuous.

Everyone is refining treasures and practicing.

He continued walking on Elephant Back Mountain, looking at the great halls.

But he saw a small hall that was brightly lit and he could faintly hear people talking inside.

The door was not closed, and he saw quite a few people sitting inside, forming a circle. Beside each person was a small table with different snacks on it, as if they had brought their own.

There were fresh fruits, dried fruits, meat, wine, nuts, and tea brewed there, and some people even brought stoves to cook meat.

The people inside were communicating with each other. He glanced at them and saw Senior Sister Huo Ling who had just helped him register for the dojo.

He didn't want to go in. They were holding a Lotus Dharma Assembly there. It would be embarrassing for him to hang around at the door, so he turned around and left. Just as he turned around, Huang Ying inside suddenly said to her senior sister in front of her, "Senior Sister Jin Ling, that's the man. He didn't come to me to choose a temple and cave, but went directly to the Dharma Storage Building to look at the exercises. He made me wait so long that I couldn't make it to your Dharma Assembly."

Of course the senior sister also saw it, but Zhao Fuyun only stood outside for a while and then left, so all she saw was his back.

Senior Sister Jin Ling said, "Since we have the fate to come here, go and call them in so that we can get to know each other."

"Do you really want to invite him?" Huang Ying said with some surprise.

"Well, go ahead. The new brothers and sisters who are admitted to the hospital will inevitably be unfamiliar with some things, so we can explain them to them." Senior Sister Jin Ling said.

After hearing this, Huang Ying didn't say anything more. She immediately stood up and walked quickly outside. Then she saw Zhao Fuyun looking at the night view not far away.

She ran over quickly and shouted, "Zhao Fuyun."

Zhao Fuyun turned around and smiled, "Senior Sister Huo Ling, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

"Senior Sister Jin Ling asked you to come in and sit with her." Huang Ying said.

"Well, I won't go. I don't know anyone there." Zhao Fuyun said.

"It's okay. There are new people joining the Dharma Assembly today. You are new to the upper house and don't understand many things. This is a good opportunity for me to explain them to you." The female cultivator named Huang Ying, whose Taoist name is Huo Ling, no longer had any resentment on her face. Instead, she showed a bit more kindness and willingness to help others.

"Well, thank you for the introduction, senior sister." Zhao Fuyun said.

So, he followed her into the small hall and followed Huang Ying to the back of Senior Sister Jin Ling.

The people inside were still talking and just glanced at him. Senior Sister Jin Ling did not stand up either, but just motioned for him to sit behind her.

She turned sideways and looked at Zhao Fuyun after he sat down. She looked at him and suddenly said with a smile, "My name is Jin Ling. Welcome to the upper house. Come, let me introduce someone to you."

After she finished speaking, she clapped her hands, attracting everyone's attention, and said, "Let me introduce everyone. The person behind me is a new junior brother who just entered the upper house today. His surname is Zhao and his name is Fuyun. Junior Brother Lingya, do you know him?"

Zhao Fuyun frowned, and the black smoke-like robbery talisman wrapped in the red flame talisman in his Qi Hai Dan Ling suddenly moved.

His eyes fell on a young man opposite him, because he sensed a hint of murderous intent from him, as if there was an aura of robbery and murder, which brought up some people and events from the past from the bottom of his heart.

The name Xu Yajun appeared in his mind.

The young Taoist opposite him widened his eyes and asked, "Is he Zhao Fuyun?"

Senior Sister Jin Ling smiled and said, "Yes. Zhao Fuyun, he is also a new member of our Dharma Assembly. His Taoist name is Lingya, and his real name is Xu Yacheng."

Zhao Fuyun looked at Jin Ling, who was smiling and had a bit of excitement in her eyes, and said, "Senior Sister Jin Ling, you are really in a good mood. Thank you for the introduction."

When he said this, he immediately stood up, clasped his fists towards everyone and said, "I am Zhao Fuyun, a newcomer to the Upper House. If I have been rude, please forgive me, brothers and sisters."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone sneered and said, "Inclusive? Who are you? Why should everyone be inclusive to you?"

　We talked all night.
