The four elders of Huaiyuantang also wore auspicious clothes today and stood at the door of the ancestral hall.
Under the solemn atmosphere and the strict procedures of the wheel-turning ceremony, Zhang Tie burned incense in the ancestral hall, lit it, and then after Elder Mu En, who acted as the ceremonial officer, shouted "Bow!", he began to worship the sky and pray. Finally, he put the incense into the bronze tripod facing the entrance of the ancestral hall, and then walked into the ancestral hall.
The entire ancestral hall was so gorgeous that it was outrageous at the moment.
On the ground, pieces of gold bricks with patterns of auspicious clouds were laid. On the pillars and beams of the main hall, various ceremonial flags and prayer flags were hung. In the bronze tripod of the main hall, expensive star sandalwood was burning. The star sandalwood was burning. When he stood up, it not only illuminated the main hall brightly, but also filled the whole hall with a strange fragrance. The entire ancestral hall was more magnificent and magnificent than the royal palace.
Zhang Tie was the first to step into the hall from the main entrance. As soon as he entered the hall, Zhang Tie put away his fighting spirit.
After Zhang Tie, there are the four elders of Huaiyuantang, followed by the other deacons of Huaiyuantang and the family members, and then the people watching the ceremony. The other deacons of Huaiyuantang, the family members and the guests watching the ceremony cannot follow. Enter through the main entrance, but enter through the side doors on both sides of the main entrance of the hall. The order is strict and meticulous.
The main entrance of the family's ancestral hall, except for the family elders and clan chiefs, under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to enter through the main entrance.
Zhang Tie stepped slowly on the pieces of auspicious cloud gold bricks, filled with emotions in his heart. At this time, Zhang Tie felt that it would be great if his father and mother could watch from the side.
After entering the main hall and walking a long distance, Zhang Tie came to the statue of Duke Huaiyuan and the tablets of the ancestors of Huaiyuan Hall. With the assistance of several family deacons, he started to light incense, starting from Duke Huaiyuan, step by step. Offer sacrifices to the ancestors and martyrs of Huaiyuantang.
When Zhang Tie began to offer sacrifices, Elder Mu En stood next to Zhang Tie, took out a golden volume, and began to read a sacrificial text in a loud voice.
"The descendant of the Taixia God, the people of all directions, Xuanyuan's bloodline, illustrious and unparalleled, I, Wu Weiyang, cast my surname with a long bow..."
This process was very long, and every step was meticulous and solemn. It took a full three minutes for Zhang Tie to complete the sacrifice.
After Zhang Tie was finished, Elder Moon's memorial poem was also read to the end...
"Today there are descendants, who are single-named Iron, like a fish turning into a dragon, able to turn the wheel of the road, fight vertically and horizontally, protect the country and the people, be emperors and queens of the land, ancestors from Huaiyuan, learn from each other through the Yin and Yin, and never fall from the right path, may they prosper forever!"
As soon as Chang Zi finished his words, Zhang Tie had just finished his last bow and inserted the last three incense sticks on the incense burner representing the Zhang family's lineage in Huaiyuantang Jinhaicheng. Among those tablets, at this moment, there were already a few more There is a new tablet, which is the tablet of the ancestors, great-grandfather and Taizu of Zhang Tie's family. Those tablets are the tablets of Mr. Zhang Haitian's father, grandfather and ancestors.
One person turns the wheel and shines upon the three clans, and his ancestors' spiritual status will be lifted up into the ancestral hall to enjoy the family's incense and blood.
Seeing this scene, Mr. Zhang Haitian, who was among the people watching the ceremony below, was so excited that he couldn't control himself and burst into tears.
Zhang Tie stood up and turned to the big cauldron, which was placed in the middle of the hall and burned with star sandalwood. Deacons from Huaiyuan Hall came from both sides and brought gold basins. In the gold basins, there were various kinds of milk, fat, rice and cereals. Sesame and other things.
Zhang Tie grabbed the rice, grains and sesame seeds in the golden basins and threw handfuls of them into the flames of the cauldron.
Every time Zhang Tie sprinkled a handful of sesame seeds into the cauldron, the flames in the cauldron shot up several feet high. The flames at the top turned golden, transformed like dragons, and rushed out of the cauldron. Sparks and sparks continued to fly out of the cauldron, exploding. The sound is loud and the light is flowing.
This is a fire offering and blessing ceremony.
Seeing that the flames were so strong when Zhang Tie was performing this ceremony, the golden fire appeared frequently, the flames turned into dragon shapes, and sparks overflowed from the cauldron. The elders and deacons in Huaiyuan Hall were all He was overjoyed, this was a rare good omen, a great good omen. At least the other elders of Huaiyuantang did not experience such auspicious signs during the wheel-turning ceremony.
The elders of various families in Jinyun Kingdom who were watching were also secretly surprised when they saw this scene. Such a good omen is indeed rare.
As the person involved, Zhang Tie didn't do much research on what was auspicious or unlucky. He was just completing the wheel-turning ceremony step by step.
After throwing away the rice, grains, sesame and other items in the gold basin, the deacon brought Zhang Tie a silver basin filled with water for Zhang Tie to wash his hands and wipe.
"After praying, carry out the golden wheel!" As Elder Mun En said these words, a huge ritual vessel for the wheel-turning ceremony was carried out by more than thirty strong men in Huaiyuan Hall. Come out and place it in the middle of the hall.
The ritual vessel is more than six meters high and two meters in diameter. It looks like a huge metal cylinder. There are various patterns of flowers, birds, fish and insects on the cylinder and various characters. On both sides of the cylinder, There are also two big "Mu" characters, which can be carried out by more than thirty strong men from Huaiyuantang. You can imagine the weight of this thing.
Zhang Tie knew that this was an important link in the entire Wheel-Winning Ceremony—Winning the Wheel.
The word "wheel" in the wheel-turning ceremony not only refers to the rotating chakra of the knight, but also the rotating golden wheel in the word "wheel-turning".
This is the tradition of the Taixia Chinese clan. By becoming a knight, you can determine your own font size in this wheel-turning competition. This is a huge honor that only knights have the right to enjoy.
For example, Zhang Tie's current name is not surprising, it is very common. If you include Taixia, there are more than hundreds of millions of people with the surname Zhang in the world. There are probably people named Zhang Tie alive now. There are probably eight hundred if not a thousand. There are too many people with the same name and surname. If you say Zhang Tie is a knight, then who doesn’t know can determine which Zhang Tie this piece of iron refers to.
Therefore, the knight has the word "Zhuanlunzuzi". With this "Zhuanlunzuzi", he can determine his own unique font size. Once he seizes the word, even if it is thousands of years later, unless the human race is destroyed, there will be no one else. This name can be used.
The passing geese leave their voices, and the passing people leave their names. This is the supreme honor of knights.
Of course Elders Moon, Murray, and Mu Yu were not called by this name originally. The word "Mu" in their names was "robbed" by Duke Huaiyuan for the knights of Huaiyuantang. Except for the knights of Huaiyuantang, In addition, no one with the surname Zhang in the world can use the character "Mu" as the second character in his name, and every elder will also "seize" the character that belongs to him in the wheel-turning ceremony. These two characters When the words are combined, they become the official title of the elder and the unique name mark of the knight of Huaiyuan Hall. Elder Murray and the others have been knights for too long. As time goes by, everyone calls them by their honorary titles, but few people mention their original names.
There are a total of 999 words in the golden wheel of the ritual vessel. If you win one, you will lose one, and there will be no duplication. As for the knights, it all depends on their luck, and they will call whatever they win.
Everyone is curious about what kind of words the youngest knight of the Zhang family can win.
Zhang Tie walked slowly to the golden wheel, looked up at the golden ritual vessel, took a deep breath, and placed one hand on the golden wheel.
Zhang Tie was also curious about what kind of font size he could win.
The knight's fighting spirit in his palm smashed hard into the golden wheel, and the golden wheel began to rotate rapidly.
When the golden wheel rotates, there will be a clattering sound inside the golden wheel, just like countless metal balls being stirred by something. Zhang Tie waited quietly beside him. Everyone was waiting with Zhang Tie.
In the entire ancestral hall, there was only the sound of the golden wheel turning.
The golden wheel can only be "snatched" by turning more than 36 times at a time, and people outside cannot see the scene inside the golden wheel. Everything depends on luck and God's will.
Two minutes later, the speed of the golden wheel slowly slowed down. After finally stopping, there was a click, and a shining silver ball was spit out from the golden wheel's mouth.
Elder Moon came over and took out the silver ball from the dragon's mouth. He looked at the golden characters on the silver ball and was slightly stunned. Then he lifted the silver ball and took out the golden characters on the silver ball. The font was displayed to everyone watching the ceremony, so that everyone could see it.
Seeing that word, all the onlookers' eyes widened. How could such a word be snatched away
That word is the word "god", and it has an innate aura that captures people's hearts.
Mu Shen—this is Zhang Tie's elder title and Zhang Tie's knight name. From then on, the name Zhang Mu Shen is unique in the world.
Zhang Tie was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that he had captured such a word. Could it be that after working for a long time, the magic stick could even sense the word-grabbing golden wheel
Zhang Tie... Zhang Mu Shen... Zhang Tie... Zhang Mu Shen... Zhang Tie recited it twice silently in his mind. He still felt that the Zhang Tie his parents gave him was more catchy, but since this is tradition, Zhang Tie didn't intend to do anything unusual, but accepted it calmly.
"Elder Mu Shen, please ascend the throne!" Elder Mu En bowed his hands to Zhang Tie, and several other family elders also bowed their hands to Zhang Tie.
From this moment on, Zhang Tie officially sat on an equal footing with several elders in Huaiyuan Hall.
…
That seat is also one of the ritual utensils of the wheel-turning ceremony. It is a black high-backed chair made of steel. It is square and straight without any extra decoration. This chair is called the Black Iron Throne, and it is here. In the ancestral hall, there are three steps raised with gold bricks on the ground, three feet above the ground, and it looks quite majestic.
A deacon respectfully held a gold tray and stood under the golden steps. Zhang Tie walked over. Elder Murray opened the red silk cover on the tray, picked up a tiger charm on the tray, and solemnly handed it over. Zhang Tie's hand.
"From today on, the Hurricane Legion is in your hands!"
Zhang Tie took the Tiger Talisman of the Hurricane Legion with both hands, nodded to Elder Murray, then walked up the steps step by step, turned around and looked around, put his hands on his knees, and then sat down steadily on the Black Iron Throne belonging to the Black Iron Knight. above.
"Congratulations!" Elder Mu En's voice echoed throughout the ancestral hall.
Zhang Taibai, Lan Yunxi's fourth uncle, an old acquaintance of Zhang Tie, was the first to walk out of the crowd of spectators with a solemn face, came under the Black Iron Throne, and bowed deeply to Zhang Tie.
"On behalf of Huaiyuantang, Zhang Taibai congratulates Elder Mu on his great military fortune and the eternal rotation of the Taoist Wheel. In order to wish Elder Mu on the wheel-turning ceremony, he specially presents 500 tons of gold, 200 boxes of pearls, 100 boxes of gems, and 1,000 pieces of gold python silk. There is a manor in each of the three cities of Yang, Jinhai and Guanxing.”
At this moment, seeing the Changfeng Merchant Group and the big shots in Huaiyuan Hall, who were once superior to him, obediently congratulating and offering gifts in front of him, Zhang Tie felt an indescribable emotion in his heart...
After saying this, Zhang Taibai handed the gift list to Deacon Yu below, and silently stepped aside. Another man in his forties came up and bowed to Zhang Tie...
"On behalf of the Wang family, Wang Jun of the Wang family of Shude Hall in Jinyun State congratulates Elder Mu God for his great military fortune and that the wheel of Tao will always turn. In order to wish Elder Mu God a wheel-turning ceremony, the Wang family expressed their sincere gratitude and specially sent 100 tons of gold and 100 pairs of jade. 100 Rhinoceros."
After the Wang family members finished speaking, they handed the gift list to Deacon Yu.
Another person came out and bowed to Zhang Tie...
"On behalf of the Lan family, Lan Xiuchuan of the Banxin Hall of Jinyun State congratulates Elder Mu on his great military fortune and that the wheel of Tao will always turn. In order to congratulate Elder Mu on the wheel-turning ceremony, the Lan family has prepared a small gift, especially 100 tons of gold. , 1,000 high-grade crystals, and 100 kilograms of divine incense.”
After the Lan family, there is the Ou family of Chuixue Hall, then the Tantai family of Tuisi Hall, the Li family of Qingmu Hall, and then the Dongfang family of Qi Lan...
The congratulators walked past Zhang Tie one by one, and the gift list in Deacon Yu's hand became thicker and thicker, requiring a gold plate to hold it...
Zhang Tie was secretly shocked. This was not a wheel-turning ceremony. It was simply a fortune-making ceremony. Some of the things on the gift lists sent by various families had Zhang Tie heard of, while others were completely unheard of. They were all kinds of strange...
When it was the turn of the Norman Empire, the person who came out was the middle-aged man with blond hair that Zhang Tie had just seen surrounded by Reinhardt and others.
"The Crown Prince of the Norman Empire, Phyllis, on behalf of the Norman Empire Royal Family, congratulates Elder Mu God for his great military fortune and the eternal rotation of the Taoist Wheel. In order to congratulate Elder Mu God for the wheel-turning ceremony, the Norman Empire Royal Family specially prepared a small ceremony for Elder Mu God. This gift totals 200 tons of gold, 20 earth element crystals, 100 boxes of jewelry of various colors, and 100 beauties of various colors!"
The crown prince of the Norman Empire spoke standard Chinese, and the gift list was no less important than what Huaiyuantang showed to Zhang Tie, especially since the Earth Element Crystals were so precious that the Norman Empire was even willing to take out 20 of them at once. It was indeed a grand gesture, and everyone was astonished. They didn’t know why the Norman Empire made so much effort to make friends with this young elder from Huaiyuantang, especially those 100 beauties. On this occasion, if he didn’t know the other person’s temper, there would be no way. People will be willing to take risks to give each other women, because people are the most uncertain things...
When he heard that there were 100 beauties, Zhang Tie glanced helplessly at Leibniz and Reinhardt in the distance. Colonel Leibniz smiled at himself, with some humility in his smile. Without asking, Zhang Tie knew that his "romantic past" in Black Flame City had already been clearly investigated by others, so he just followed his lead...
As soon as the crown prince of the Norman Empire finished speaking, Zhang Tie felt a resentful gaze looking at him. Zhang Tie looked over, but it was Princess Candice of the Remland Empire who was looking at him, slightly pouting her lovely lips. Small mouth… R1152
