Last year, for the first time, temples around the country accepted apprentices publicly. There were so many temples across the country that they only accepted 538 people.
Either Hehe, with extraordinary aptitude and natural disposition; or like Lin Junlong, although his understanding is poor, he is better than physical skills, and he is also considered to have a skill.
For the first time, Phoenix Mountain recruited 1,008 disciples. There were many excellent cultivation seeds, but most of them were mediocre ones, barely reaching the threshold.
At this moment, these one thousand and eight people gathered in the small square in the mountain, not knowing how to deal with themselves. That beautiful young lady has disappeared, Lao Shui and others are still outside, and the main square is still bustling.
Then, they listened to the people on the mountain say: "... get a talisman to pray for rain, to congratulate the present!"
Wow!
Everyone was excited, and the mountains inside and outside the mountains suddenly fell into a strong agitation.
In modern society, science and technology have the ability to change the sky, but there are still many restrictions. Floods, droughts, typhoons, and severe cold are harassing the people of all countries every year.
If Taoism can really control the sky, there is no doubt that the degree of approval in everyone's hearts will soar by a large margin.
At the same time, the capital is also paying close attention, and the experts from the Shengtian Meteorological Observatory are on the alert, waiting for this miracle to happen.
…
"Ah, come on! Come on!"
After Xiao Jin led everyone in, she ran up the mountain by herself, and jumped a few times to the east foot, where there was a mountain called Yanbie Peak.
This peak has not been developed, with luxuriant trees, jagged rocks and no mountain trails. Xiao Jin performed the air-flying technique, with a vertical length of more than 20 zhang, with her feet connected, like a falcon soaring, she quickly flew to the mountainside.
"Hey, Jinjin, are you done with your work?"
At this moment, she suddenly heard Long Qiu's voice from behind, she turned her head to look, and was very upset. They have babies, and they fly away when they step on the golden silkworm.
"Rang Rang, take me one!" She begged desperately to squeeze up.
"Go down, the golden silkworm can't carry two people!"
"Ouch ouch..."
Long Qiu really had no choice but to get off the golden silkworm and run with her.
Not long after, the two reached the top of the mountain, where Gu Yu and Xiao Zhai were already preparing.
I saw a flat land on the outer edge of the mountain top, the area is not large, the opening faces the true north, the sea of clouds billows in front of it, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun;
Standing on the edge of the cliff, fluttering as if independent from the world, becoming immortal.
And on the flat ground, there is a method altar, the ground is covered with a map with Tai Chi gossip embedded, and the table is wrapped with a plain colored altar cloth.
There are candlesticks, offering plates, five grains, eight treasures for calming the gods, and an incense burner. Three sticks of incense sticks are inserted in the burner, and the purple five-turn amulet for praying for rain is placed in the middle.
"Are you sure you don't want to burn the letters?" Xiao Zhai asked.
"The form is to be burned for the gods to read, and now it's another matter if there is a god. Why should I burn it?"
Gu Yu paused, and said: "Actually, I always feel that the sense of form is greater than the content when Zhengyi invites God. This time I want to see, what exactly is it saying?"
According to the traditional etiquette of Zhengyi Dharma Altar, before the practice, one must read the oath form to restrain oneself and communicate with God, and then burn it.
Then you have to read the summoning trance form, which is used to invite the gods, summon the gods, trance to the gods, stay in the gods, etc., and then burn them.
Gu Yu felt that it was meaningless. No one had succeeded in praying for rain for five hundred years. It is not known whether this set of rituals is correct. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and saw the setting sun in the pale sky, the summer heat was not fading, and the afterglow blended with the cold light of the unborn early moon, scattered at both ends of the east and west.
"It's a good scene, it's time for a heavy rain!"
He didn't wear the so-called celestial master's robe, so he stood in front of the altar, stared at it for a moment, and then pinched an extremely complicated finger formula with his left hand, expressing his determination to pray for the mountains and fields.
Followed by the right hand to pick up the talisman, inspired by spiritual power, he chanted a mantra:
"Five emperors and five dragons, descending light and traveling style. Widely spread moist, assist Lei Gong..."
puff!
As soon as the first sentence was read, the purple talisman ignited spontaneously without fire, and floated up from between the fingers, floating in mid-air, full of shadows and lights.
Gu Yu's complexion changed slightly, and the spiritual power he imagined was sucked out crazily to stimulate the power of the talisman. On the contrary, there is a magical power in this talisman that is transmitted into the body, instantly merging with the aura of the whole body, like a set of special running routes, slowly wandering in the body.
"I summon the water god, and the wall produces rain. The pan leopard rises, and the dragon dances..."
He didn't dare to stop, and continued to chant the mantra. After the second sentence of the mantra came out, he felt that the power was mixed with spiritual energy, and it directly returned to the liver palace. It circulated for seven weeks, and the wood energy was strong.
After that, it was transported to Jianggong, where the heart fire was born, and the anger was strong.
Then, it is divided into the spleen, lung, and kidney palaces. The anode is first taught, and the yin is born, and the fire is used to generate earth, the earth generates metal, and the metal generates water. Finally, it runs in the kidney palace for nine weeks, and the water is prosperous.
"Five stars rise from the court, and the hole lives in the Kan. Bo shakes water, Niu Jin and A Xiangnv. Dogs and water spirits, ghosts and sheep make fire."
While chanting the mantra, Gu Yu turned sharply in his mind, and suddenly realized that it was so! I see!
He had the bottom line in his heart, no longer kept it, let the power of the talisman move in his body, and only said: "In the middle of the dantian, there is an inch of the sea. It is shaped like a drought, thunder and lightning are powerful... Urgent as a law!"
boom!
When the last mantra is uttered, the water will prosper, and the fire will be suppressed again, and the fire will disappear and become muddy. The burning talisman seemed to be integrated with Gu Yu, and a majestic force emanated from the two.
There is inner air inside, which swims in Gu Yu's body; there is outer air, which spreads out instantly, with Yanbie Peak as the core, like a huge transparent air shield, flying directly into the sky, and pressing down for a radius of a hundred miles.
"So strong water vapor!"
Xiao Zhai was very surprised, he could clearly feel that the energy of the five elements around him was changing rapidly, gold, wood, fire and earth disappeared temporarily, only the air of water was invigorated.
"Hey, it's windy, it's windy!"
Xiao Jin glanced, and found that the straight cigarette smoke deviated, followed by the grass and trees, and couldn't help screaming.
"Ah! It's a cool breeze. There hasn't been a cool breeze on the mountain for a long time!"
Long Qiu was also delighted, reaching out to grab it like a child, and then looked at a certain figure, full of admiration.
"Damn it, it's really windy!"
As for the square under the mountain, it was even more chaotic and noisy.
Many people rushed out of the square, ran to the distance like crazy, turned back, waved and shouted: "It's not hot outside, the temperature has dropped! The temperature has dropped!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Such strong mood swings are happening in almost every place, from the square, to the urban area, and then to the surrounding towns.
If at this time, some slow-witted guys hadn't reacted, then immediately afterward, the cool wind intensified, and the remaining afterglow of the setting sun was suddenly wiped away from the sky, and a thick, dark cloud floated in instead.
This cloud covered the sky above Baicheng, and the first moon was also covered by it. The whole area was like a small room covered with curtains, with light and dark changing, gloomy and gloomy.
Residential buildings, offices, shops, factories, farmyards... People ran out of all kinds of buildings and onto the streets, roads, ridges and ponds.
When the news exploded yesterday, most people took it as a joke, but now that it is about to become a reality, they couldn't restrain their emotions and rushed to tell each other.
"See, the clouds are coming! The clouds are coming!"
"My God, is this really the way of a fairy?"
"Hey, listen, listen, what's that sound?"
boom!
Boom!
The crowd fell into a brief silence, all listening attentively, only to hear a series of strange muffled noises coming from the sky, getting closer and closer, but never revealing the true sound, circling and wandering in the clouds.
"Thunder! It's thunder!"
"It's raining, it's not a joke, it's really raining!"
…
On Yanbie Peak.
Gu Yu stood in front of the altar, carefully controlling the power of the talisman.
The principle of the rain praying talisman is complicated and complicated, and simple and simple. First turn the Qi of the five elements into water, and then use the human body as a medium to communicate with the sky.
The body returns to Huang Ting, rises to the wind pool, and the sky rises with the wind.
Ascend to the mountain, reveal the divine house, and the clouds will move.
With the action of thunder, ascend to the top door, inhale and drink out, then thunder will sound.
Ascend the Niwan, enter the Huachi, spray the god water, and the rain will come.
Finally, it ascends to the crimson palace, and when it flashes out, the rain will gather and the clouds will disperse.
Wind, cloud, thunder, rain, and sunshine are the five turns of the talisman, which is also the connection between heaven and man in the ancient Taoism!
He understood from the beginning that the purple talisman first acts on himself, and then acts on the sky. No wonder it has such high requirements for casting spells. Without the power of a human being, it cannot be used at all.
But at this moment, thunder was rumbling, dark clouds were densely covered, and his own spiritual power was crazily drawn, and scattered in the sky and earth together with the talismans. Just one step away, heavy rain fell.
Gu Yu didn't dare to neglect, closed his eyes, and continued to coordinate his strength.
All of a sudden, his brows were frowned, and his mind shook slightly. He only felt that this force was in the middle yellow position, went straight from the Jiaji to the twelve-storey building, passed through the top door, and flew into the air.
And in the air, there seemed to be a mass of formless and ignorant incorporeal forms, which disappeared in an instant.
He didn't have time to think about it, quickly suppressed his mind, and urged his spiritual power...
boom!
There was loud thunder, dark clouds gathered, and a gap seemed to be cracked in the dome. Finally, it rained!
…
Southeast, Bianmen Town.
The town is small in scale, with a total population of 28,678, including 26,593 agricultural populations. It is a typical agricultural town. In the past, there were mountains and lakes, and the tourism industry could still be developed. Now the mountains are not mountains, the lakes are not lakes, and the fields are even more hopeless.
It's basically cold.
Qian Huai is in his seventies this year. He is an ordinary farmer. He has no children and his wife passed away the year before last.
He doesn't know anything else, and has lived his whole life by farming. The policy was tilted earlier. Although it was a bit hard, his life was passable. And all this changed after the arrival of the new world.
The country has designated more than 30 planting bases, and there is no Shengtian area, so resource support is naturally limited.
What's more, due to successive years of drought, the harvest in Bianmen Town continued to drop sharply, and the higher-ups had already abandoned this piece of land, planning to develop and upgrade it, and put it in the small urban agglomeration.
Qian Huai's land has been sold for a lot of money, and he will be allocated a house first, but his whole life has been devoted to this land, like his life, how can he give up so easily
The official construction will start tomorrow, and the machinery and equipment are ready. He squatted in the familiar field, looking at the construction crowd not far away, his eyes were empty, and he didn't notice the cold wind at all.
"Click!"
He shivered suddenly, he felt the tip of his nose was slightly cold, and when he wiped it with his hand, it was actually wet.
Before I could react, another drop, two drops... In a short time, the rain poured down.
"..."
Qian Huai was stunned at first, then slowly stood up.
He looked at the sky, his clothes were completely wet, and his skinny body was shivering in the rain. After a long while, Fang squeezed out a bitter cry from his throat: "Why didn't you come earlier? Why didn't you come earlier? Huh..."
…
To the north, Dalishu Village.
It is very close to the urban area. It was originally an agricultural ecological park with complete equipment and self-contained system. After the outbreak of large-scale alienation, the Shengtian government made a decision to keep this place as a local supply point.
Oh, Dai Han's Wang Bawo is raised here.
His family's ancestors have raised turtles for two generations, so there is nothing to say about their experience and skills. Of course, it is very pitiful now, with only two turtles, one male and one female. At the moment, he is squatting by the pond, staring at the calm water, thinking about a new feed ingredient.
"Gurgle!"
Um
He was taken aback for a moment, and saw the water ripples swaying away, and two turtles suddenly got out, their heads sticking out of the water, as if they were longing for something.
Just as he was puzzled, he saw ripples on the surface of the water again, raindrops fell, and in a blink of an eye it rained heavily.
"Fuck! It's really down!"
Dai Han said something casually, and immediately thought that it was a fairy raining. He ran out of the shed in a panic, also very excited, jumping and jumping.
After finally calming down, the little fat man looked at the Phoenix Mountains blurred in the rain, and couldn't help but clench his fists and swear: he must make a name for himself here!
…
Baicheng stretches for hundreds of kilometers from east to west, north to south, and just covers the towns under its jurisdiction. Even to the far west, a certain urban area on the outskirts of Shengtian, was lucky enough to touch a little bit.
The Shengtian Meteorological Bureau is here.
"The cloud map is out, and the coverage area is calculated!"
"Yes, the result is out!"
"The rain continued to be steady and did not abate in the slightest!"
"The villages and towns are basically the same, there is no obvious difference!"
"Calculation, calculation! I need detailed rainfall data!"
The deputy director held a stack of documents, which were densely packed with worthless conclusions, and shouted: "Rain, I want rain now!"
The so-called rainfall is the depth of rain falling on the horizontal surface within a certain period of time. Measured in millimeters, usually measured every 6 hours.
Xu is the central government personally issued an order, which made the deputy director dizzy and forgot the basic rules for a while. The subordinates didn't dare to remind him, and he wanted to remind him again, but he was suddenly held down by a hand, but it was the director in place.
"Old Zhang, at such a young age, the data has to be calculated slowly, and there is no rush."
"But the boss, the boss is very important!"
"Is it important? Hehe, you come..."
The director took the deputy to the corridor, slammed open a window, and said with a smile, "Look for yourself!"
"..."
The deputy director didn't know why, so he leaned over a little, and the moment the window was exposed, the eardrums suddenly rang, and a very clear and dense beating sound like a passionate drum beat instantly captured the entire senses.
"Wow, boom!"
"Click, click, click!"
"Bang bang... flutter!"
The rain outside is like a curtain, dripping on the streets, carports, roofs, glass windows and pedestrians, like playing a beautiful movement.
Countless people ran into the street, inexplicably, fiercely, cheering for no reason. Rain has nothing to do with them; rain can't save the country from drought.
But they just want to cheer.
Xu Shi suffered from the scorching heat and finally found a vent;
Xu Shi is far beyond his imagination, the nerves in his whole body want to jump uncontrollably;
Xu Shi saw the wonderful future of human cultivation, and found a little comfort in this boring, humble, and cockroach-like fucking world struggling to survive.
People, people, you can break through the shackles and overcome everything. How can you be invaded by those dirty and disgusting things, lose your loved ones, and be overwhelmed by those things
"Do you still need to calculate? Heavy rain! Heavy rain!"
