There are indeed very few tourists in the Taoist temple, only the three of them, and another couple took pictures on the steps. There was nothing to see in the Jade Emperor Hall, so Xiao Jin retracted after poking her probe, and went up to the second floor.
The second floor has the largest space. Right in front of it is a statue of Dou Lao with four heads, three eyes, and eight arms. On the left and right sides, there are thirty Jiazi gods on each side, with vivid shapes.
This is Yuanchen Hall.
"This female layman..."
As soon as the three of them walked in, a young Taoist came over and said to Xiao Jin, "Are you going to burn incense?"
"yes!"
"Then burn a good incense, although it is more expensive, but it is good for your health, wealth and relationship." The Taoist opened his mouth and came.
"I burn a high incense, can you bless me so much?" Xiao Jin said happily.
"Hey, gods and gods are all sentient beings. They naturally know whether they are sincere or not. We mortals have nothing to do but burn incense and kowtow to express our respect, so this incense is very important. After burning high incense, gods can feel it, and they can feel it. Will bless us better... "
The Taoist priest was spitting, explaining cause and effect, misfortune and good fortune, and connecting it with the benefits of burning high incense. Xiao Jin was just playing around, so why would she care about him, she just said, "No need, I'll just burn this."
The Taoist fooled to no avail, immediately shifted his target, and greeted: "You two laymen..."
"Master!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xiao Zhai performed an ancient ritual first, inserting the thumb of his left hand into the tiger's mouth of his right hand, pinching the zigzag pattern on his right hand. The thumb of the right hand is bent under the thumb of the left hand, pinching the noon pattern—the hands are in the form of a Taiji diagram.
This is called Ziwu Jue, which is a kind of etiquette handed down by Taoists since ancient times. The meaning of left is yang anger, and right is yin murderous intent, which means that yang embraces yin, and life controls killing.
When we watch Taoist priests in film and television dramas, we beat Jishou when we meet people. In fact, besides Jishou, there are two common ways. One is hand-to-hand ceremony, and the other is Ziwu Jue.
"..."
Seeing Xiao Zhai's actions, the Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, he seemed a little guilty, and didn't dare to answer. He paused, then retreated to Xiao Jin's side, and said, "Since you insist, we won't force you, come on, I'll tell you how to pay New Year's greetings."
As he spoke, he asked Xiao Jin about her birthday, found the corresponding Jiazi statue, and then burned incense and kowtowed.
"what's the situation?"
On the other side, Gu Yu asked quietly.
"That's a fake."
Xiao Zhai responded softly, saying: "If he doesn't dare to accept my gift, it means he doesn't understand."
"Fake?"
Gu Yu glanced at that person, shook his head and said, "This view of the truth is also in vain."
"Heh, just turn around when you come."
Xiao Zhai smiled, looked at the row of god statues again, and suddenly asked, "Hey, which is your natal life?"
"My... uh, it should be this."
He took a few steps and stopped in front of a statue of a god. It was Xing Jun who looked like a scholar, dressed in a green robe, gentle and elegant, holding a jade ruyi in his hand.
Marked on the sign: General Bingyin Taisui Gengzhang.
"That's right, it looks seven points like me."
He was very satisfied, and then looked to the left, because Xiao Zhai was one year older than him, so the one in front was naturally her life. Take a look at the results, okay!
That Xingjun was dressed in a bright red burqa, majestic and majestic, but his hairstyle was rather wavy: he was bald in the middle, but wore a bun like a ram's horn on both sides, his face was like a boy, and he held a red tasseled gun in his right hand.
Although it is marked as Yi Chou Tai Sui General Chen Cai, but this unrestrained daredevil is very similar to a certain lotus bully who has encountered a mid-life crisis.
"It's amazing, you are born to be Nezha!"
Gu Yu laughed miserably, being crushed by the opponent all the time, it is rare to find a slot, so of course he has to release it.
"..."
Xiao Zhai was speechless, half because of this dude, half because of that dude.
…
They were flirting here, and Xiao Jin had already finished offering incense, she got up and asked, "Do you still have to pay for the incense?"
"As you wish, gods have their own efficacies." The Taoist priest was serious.
"oh."
After hearing this, she took out a one-dollar coin and threw it into the merit box. With a clang, it was called a crisp.
"Okay, the merit is immeasurable!"
The Taoist priest was also very godly, and he didn't break his merits. He continued: "Recently, a master placed an order in the temple. If you want to pray for your family, please come inside."
"OK!"
Anyway, Xiao Jin agreed to everything, and stumbled into a small room, where there were tables and chairs, and a horse-faced Taoist priest was sitting there. When he saw someone coming, he immediately laughed and said, "Sign your name here to ensure that your wish will come true."
She curled her lips, temporarily made up two names, and wrote them on a yellow paper.
"Are these your parents? Well, we must chant scriptures and pray for your family's safety."
The horse-faced Taoist flipped through the book, and the first page was full of tourists' names, with numbers below the names, and explained: "Look, this is all wish money left by the layman. Our highest is 9999, and the lowest is 99. I see you You have a good face, you can give 999 or 699."
"I don't have that much money with me."
"The minimum cost is 99. Recite the scriptures once a day for ninety-nine days, and only one yuan per day."
"Isn't the wish money given at will? Then I will donate ten yuan, perfect."
"Impossible!"
The horse-faced Taoist immediately changed his face, and threatened: "Let me make it clear to you, it is not good for your family to donate less!"
"But I only have ten yuan."
"Don't you have a companion, you can borrow it."
"Oh, I'm not familiar with you, so I'm so sorry."
The two argued for a long time, and Xiao Jin was amused with a sullen face, but she refused to give money. Seeing this, the Taoist said with a cold face: "There is no way, your heart is not sincere, and even the gods will not bless you."
After finishing the words, he picked up the pen and crossed out the two names.
Fuck!
From the moment when the woman gave her incense, Xiao Jin was very calm after this trick, but this was too much. It's a pity that she didn't have her real name, otherwise she would be pissed off, but even so, she didn't want to bear it.
"Snapped!"
As soon as she slapped the table, she got up and yelled: "You guys are too weird, you just pay if you don't pay? I've seen disgusting ones, but I've never seen such disgusting ones!"
"This is a quiet place, please get out."
The horse-faced Taoist was too lazy to scold each other and waved his hand directly.
"Qing Jing, is there a monk like you? Are you really a fake?"
The sister-in-law is backed by a big boss, and she is full of confidence: "Take out the Taoist priest certificate, or I will report it, do you believe it or not?"
Hey!
Upon hearing this, the other party couldn't sit still, and shouted: "Xiao Zhang! Xiao Zhang!"
"What's wrong?"
As soon as the door opened, the young Taoist priest entered the room.
"Someone is making trouble, get out."
The horse-faced Taoist pointed to Xiao Jin, this girl is not the one who suffers, she ran outside before anyone could do anything.
"Sister, brother! I leave it to you!"
She ran and yelled, but she didn't feel panicked at all, instead, she was very happy--she was very happy with the news just now.
"..."
Gu Yu and Xiao Zhai didn't understand what was going on, so they saw her go downstairs slowly, and then a Taoist priest chased her out, shouting at herself:
"Don't make trouble here, it will be hard for anyone if it gets bigger."
"Go, go!"
"If you don't leave, I'll call someone, hurry up!"
Well, the two of them immediately understood that the brat had gotten into trouble again. It was a headache, they didn't want to start a conflict for nothing, so they had to turn around and go out.
