One person ascends to the Pure Huang Court

Hua Feng said: "The number of aliens is approaching the population red line. Even if we strictly control public opinion, we can't hide it for a few years."

Zhao Fangxu nodded: "I know, but before we complete the reorganization, there must be no major movements."

dong dong dong.

Just as the directors were discussing future work with the heads of various regions, someone knocked hurriedly on the door outside the meeting room.

"Come in."

Zhao Fangxu's secretary stood behind the door and said, "Sorry, Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry to interrupt your meeting, but your phone has been ringing since just now. Someone keeps sending you text messages."

"Oh," Zhao Fangxu suddenly felt something was wrong, "Give me the phone."

I took the phone and saw that the person who sent the text message was indeed Er Zhuang.

Er Zhuang: Oh no! Oh no! Mr. Zhao.

Xiuwu and Sister Duoer have lost contact!

Chapter 374 Stormy weather

Hu Xiuwu sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, meditating.

The evil spirit all around is like miasma, the resentment is like mud, the ghosts are howling and the shadows are heavy.

The seven evil spirits subdued from Zhao Guizhen wandered around Hu Xiuwu, trying to escape from him. When they failed, they turned around and lay on Hu Xiuwu, trying to bite his flesh. However, Hu Xiuwu was protected by golden light, and the evil spirits could not even bite through his skin.

He could only use his own resentment and evil spirit to infect Hu Xiuwu, trying to arouse his hatred.

"···Auspicious clouds open the door to life, auspicious smoke blocks the door to death, the mysterious origin is first sent out to communicate auspiciousness and inspiration, to save all sins and overcome all disasters."

The invasion of evil spirits could not shake Hu Xiuwu's state of mind. He maintained a state of meditation, with his fingers clenched, his lips moving, and he chanted the "Wonderful Sutra of the Most High Mysterious and Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable for Saving the Suffering and Removing Sins".

As his lips opened and closed, golden flames faintly overflowed. The golden flames, combined with the scriptures, transformed into chains that wrapped around the seven evil spirits, stripping away the evil spirits and resentment in their bodies.

The evil red and the resentful black, like dust and haze, like crumbs and scales, fluttered down and fell directly into the shadow, turning into mud to nourish the red lotus.

The red lotus grew vigorously, and the boy in the lotus showed sadness and anger. Then he transformed into the three-eyed, four-armed Acalanatha, absorbing the resentment from the seven evil spirits.

The resentment and evil spirit turn into nutrients for Acala, making it stronger.

These seven evil child spirits were first tortured and killed by Zhao Guizhen using evil rituals to increase their resentment, and then imprisoned and nurtured in his body for several years to increase their evil spirit.

The evil spirit suppressed its own spirituality, obscured its wisdom, made it extremely bestial, and gave it a strong desire to attack.

If you do not eliminate their resentment and simply let them go, you will be tantamount to releasing seven evil man-eating spirits and creating the karma of killing for no reason.

Fortunately, Hu Xiuwu is good at the Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts, and the Wind and Fire Order·Tushita Fire is best at eliminating resentment and delusion and returning people to purity.

The body was locked by gold and fire, scriptures rang in the ears, and the seven evil spirits wailed in pain.

In this world, anything that makes people better will be painful.

It is learning, and it is also practicing; it is curing diseases, and it is even more so getting rid of inner demons.

The golden fire was like a knife, scraping away the resentful and rotten flesh on the bodies of the seven evil spirits. The black smoke and miasma also dissipated. The evil spirits were no longer so ferocious, and turned back into innocent children, turning from evil spirits into spiritual children.

Seven ignorant children, who looked about seven or eight years old, floated in the air, speechless, like puppets.

Unlike the Kumantong that Hu Xiuwu encountered more than ten years ago, that sorcerer used the Kumantong as a slave, so that Kumantong still had some intelligence. But Zhao Guizhen purely used the evil spirit as a tool to improve his cultivation and a weapon against the enemy. It was more advantageous for him to have no intelligence.

Therefore, after regaining its original nature, the evil spirit cannot recover its intelligence as quickly as the Kumantong, and it needs some time to recuperate.

"It's fate. If it were more than a decade ago, I would have no choice but to send you back to Shangqing or entrust you to the company."

Hu Xiuwu opened his eyes, took the seven spirit boys into Luo Fengtian, and ordered the Yellow Spring Yinshi to take care of them first, and wait until they regained consciousness before making any further moves.

After settling the spirit boy, Hu Xiuwu looked at his own shadow again.

To outsiders, the figure looked dark and deep, but to Hu Xiuwu, there was a three-meter-tall wrathful Vajra King in the shadow, with his hands clasped together and his eyes wide open.

Hu Xiuwu looked at Acala with satisfaction:

"That's right, good things really do happen to good people. It turns out that the Fire Realm Mantra of Acala can be improved by this method. It seems that my wish to drive a Gundam will soon come true."

Originally, Hu Xiuwu just wanted to use the Tushita fire in conjunction with the "Miraculous Sutra of the Most High Mysterious and Wonderful Heavenly Venerable for Saving the Suffering and Removing Sins" to eliminate the resentment of the evil spirit, but he did not expect that in the process, he suddenly had an idea and threw the resentful and evil spirit connected with his breath into the quagmire under the red lotus.

It actually worked. The swamp absorbed the resentment and successfully improved Hu Xiuwu's cultivation of the Fire Realm Mantra, enhanced the strength of Acala, and expanded the size of Acala.

Chen Duo, who was standing by, handed Hu Xiuwu an apricot-yellow robe and said, "Er Zhuang called just now, but I didn't answer her call as you said."

Hu Xiuwu put on an apricot-yellow robe and said, "You're right. What I have to do involves too many things. I can't get involved too much with Nadutong."

"This is also good for Lao Zhao, so he won't be embarrassed in the future."

Now everyone has heard that Hu Xiuwu is the successor of the Qi Body Origin. Only a few people know that Hu Xiuwu just took the blame for the Eight Wonders on behalf of Zhang Chulan.

Only a few people, including Heavenly Master, Shangqing Sect Master Yang Ming, and Northeastern Immortal Sect leader Liu Kunsheng, knew that Hu Xiuwu not only took the blame for Zhang Chulan, but also used it to cover up his own abnormalities.

The secret of the Eight Wonders in turn concealed the secret of his own Luo Fengtian.

Gong Qing opened the curtain of the tent and stood at the door of the tent: "Brother Hu, are you ready? I am going to start excavating the ancient city of Jingjue."

After fastening the buttons on his Taoist robe and putting on his Hunyuan scarf, Hu Xiuwu said with some emotion: "I haven't worn a Taoist robe for a long time. I'm still a little nostalgic for participating in the fasting and offering ceremony."

There was a fire outside the tent, but Quan Xing’s people were not using magic to excavate the ancient city, but were making an altar.

The ancient city of Jingjue was buried thousands of meters under a black sandstorm. Even if there were ten thousand people and thousands of excavators, it would still take a long time to bring the ancient city of Jingjue back to the light of day.

However, strangers have their own ways.

By using sacrificial rituals, the power of heaven and earth was mobilized to stir up these tens of millions of tons of yellow sand.

It is recorded in "Zhou Li" that the Siwu is in charge of the policies and orders of the group of shamans. If there is a severe drought in the country, he will lead the shamans to perform the Yu dance.

Wu Yu is the ancient method of praying for rain.

Every April, when the dragon star shines brightly in the east, the government holds a regular rain ceremony. If it is a dry season, the emperor holds a large rain ceremony to quell the drought.

The requirements of Dayu are very strict, and at least seventy-two extraordinary people need to be gathered to be effective.

In the Zhou Dynasty, the Great Yu Sacrifice could still pray for abundant rain, but as time passed, restricted by the natural environment, the results of the sacrifice became increasingly poor. By the Ming Dynasty, a complete and smooth Great Yu Sacrifice could only bring a drizzle of rain, which was not a good thing for the emperor.

Therefore, in modern times, the Yu Festival, which is not as effective as a weather missile, has become a useless ritual and few people practice it.

Only someone like Li Si, who is obsessed with the way of lewd worship in Ye Maoshan, would be good at it.

On the makeshift altar, the well-trained Li Si was dressed neatly, even wearing the purple robe that only the high-level masters of the Three Mountains were qualified to wear.

Under the blazing sun of the desert, the cranes, dragons, and phoenixes, pagodas, and eight trigrams embroidered with gold and silver threads on the robes all glowed brightly.

Hu Xiuwu looked around and saw an incense table on the circular altar, and three flagpoles standing on the edge of the altar. Xiao Su and other magicians used local materials to mold five earth dragons out of sand, and they guarded the altar according to the five elements.

Hu Xiuwu raised his eyebrows and immediately saw the origin of this rain sacrifice: "The rain sacrifice in the Five Dragon Hall is a method of praying for rain."

Due to poor results, the Sitianjian and other institutions in successive dynasties have been trying their best to innovate the method of praying for rain. In the Song Dynasty, they integrated and perfected the "Method of Praying for Rain in the Five Dragon Hall".

Use the current water and soil to shape an earth dragon to attract rain, and use the shape of the earth dragon to attract the cloud dragon spirit to attract rain.

However, Hu Xiuwu raised his own doubts: "In the vast desert, does praying for rain really work?"

Gong Qing looked at the busy Quan Xing people with a little excitement, and explained to Hu Xiuwu: "Our goal is not to attract rain, but to attract the wind that comes with the rain. We can't attract rain in the desert, but we can call for strong winds!"

"It is thanks to your help, Xiuwu, that we were able to complete this ceremony. Everyone is very excited. This is the largest sacrificial ceremony in a hundred years, and it is rare in the world!"

Hu Xiuwu turned his head and looked towards the center of the altar: "I'll wait and see."

Jingle Bell,

Li Si rang the Sanqing Bell, indicating that the ceremony officially began. Everyone in Quanxing took their positions, stood beside the five dragons, and clapped the drums in their hands.

The drum beats are continuous, powerful and heavy.

The Dharma drum sounds, the ceremony begins, please ask the gods to listen carefully.

Li Si stood on the altar, waving his peach wood sword. The tip of the sword touched the cleansing talisman drawn by Hu Xiuwu on the incense table.

The yellow talisman spontaneously combusted, and the power of the rune surged out, cleansing Li Si's body and removing the filth.

After his body and mind were cleansed, Li Si stepped on the Gangbu step, flicked his fingers to light incense, and the incense passed on the message.

Li Si shouted: "Raise the banner!"

Xue Fan held up the large banner that he had made long ago and hung it on three flagpoles.

The big banner was one person tall and one foot wide, with talismans painted on it with cinnabar.

On the left are the Five Thunder Gods, on the right is the Bi Star Raising Rain Talisman, and the middle banner is the Ji Star Moving Wind Talisman.

If you want to attract the energy of heaven, earth, wind, rain, and thunder, you must use a large talisman banner that is far more powerful than ordinary yellow talismans.

Only the Shangqing Talisman Master has the ability to make such a large talisman banner, but even a Shangqing Talisman Master needs at least half a month to make it.

In the world, only Lu Jin and Hu Xiuwu, who have mastered the Tongtian Talisman, have the ability to draw three talisman banners overnight.

In addition to the talisman itself, the location of the talisman is also important.

The usual way to pray for rain is to have three banners for wind, rain and thunder, with rain in the middle. However, in this sacrifice by Li Si, wind was in the main position, which also showed that this time, the wind was more important than rain.

The talisman flag stood solemnly on the flagpole and did not flutter in the wind.

Li Si picked up the jade tablet on the incense table and prayed loudly:

"Heaven created the five grains to feed people. Now the five grains are suffering from drought and may not bear fruit. I offer you sake and meat and pray for wind and rain. If it rains heavily, I will offer sacrifices and pray."

Xue Fan, as the deputy priest, led all the people in Quanxing to chant with Qi and sound:

"Alas! Today's wind and rain, the wind and rain come from the west! The wind and rain come from the east! The wind and rain come from the north! The wind and rain come from the south."

"Oh, I'm old now. I didn't expect that at this age, I still have to sing for others. Jinfeng, just wait and see!"

Xia Liuqing had already painted his face and put on his costume. He said he was helpless, but his actions showed that he was eager to try.

The mask of divinity is originally the way of witches and shamans. How could Xia Liuqing be unwilling to perform the job of a witch and shaman?

Hu Xiuwu watched from the sidelines, but was quite puzzled: "What is Xia Liuqing going to do? I remember that the Wulongtang rain-praying method had long deleted the process of the witch dance."

Gong Qing said: "That's right, the Five Dragon Hall Rain Prayer Method does not have the wizard link, and what Elder Xia is performing is not the Five Dragon Hall Rain Prayer Method."

"It's the Quanzhou Wind Prayer Festival."

Hu Xiuwu was surprised: "Performing two kinds of sacrifices at once?"
