Chapter 81: The Opening Ceremony
Mo He closed his eyes and waited for a long time, and the guests who came to watch the ceremony walked in one after another, but now the ones who came earlier, most of them were guests sitting in the back, and he was still the only one around Mo He.
For himself to be able to achieve such a high position, Mo He also understands that this is entirely because he is the Taoist official of Zi'an County, as a local Taoist official, now the Five Elements Concept is here to set up a view, and he will also be a neighbor in the future, of course, he must show some courtesy to himself.
After a long time, the first guest finally appeared beside Mo He, a Taoist official from Yuhe Mansion, whose cultivation realm had reached the realm of Yin God, and came to Mo He to sit down not far away.
With his arrival, people from the top positions around Mohe soon appeared one after another, and several of them were from Yuhe Mansion.
After these people sat down, they all looked at Mo He, and found that Mo He's cultivation was only in the realm of divine souls, so they didn't pay much attention to Mo He, and the few people sitting next to Mo He, they obviously knew each other, so they talked to each other, and Mo He sat there alone, unable to interject into their topic, and seemed to be a little embarrassed.
However, Mo He did not feel embarrassed, but listened to their conversation with great interest, from their conversation, Mo He can get a lot of information, this information may not be too important to these people, but Mo He listened carefully, and he was able to know some news.
For example, from the conversation of these people, Mo He knew about the opening ceremony of the Five Elements Temple today, and the people from Qionghua Mansion and Qionghua Sect were also coming.
It's just that as the only sect in the entire Qiongzhou that can handle it, the people of Qionghua Sect will arrive relatively late, and it is likely that it will be the last finale.
As the local sect of Qiongzhou, the arrival of Qionghuazong also means the recognition of the Five Elements Concept, an outsider.
While Mo He was listening, suddenly someone walked in and sat beside Mo He.
"Brother Mo came early!"
The voice sounded, Mo He turned his head and saw Su Bai and Zhou Bo behind him.
Mo He smiled and said: "No way, I haven't seen anything in the world at all, it's rare to have something that can open my eyes, of course I have to run early to see the excitement!"
Su Bai nodded and smiled at Mo He, then looked at the people sitting around, and kept clasping his fists to greet them, unlike Mo He, Su Bai was obviously familiar with these people around him, and several of the officials of Yuhe Mansion were still Su Bai's bosses in name, but they were also very polite in the face of Su Bai's greeting.
Just as Su Bai and the people around him had greeted him, Mo He suddenly found that the noisy sound in the square was silent, and he turned his head to see that a disciple of the Five Elements Concept was leading a group of people in.
There were seven or eight of them in this group, all dressed in uniform and blue and purple, which looked very eye-catching.
"People from Qionghua Sect!" Mo He said secretly in his heart.
came in at this time, and the person in this dress, there was only Qionghuazong and one family in the entire Qiongzhou.
When the group of people from Qionghuazong sat down, Mo He found that the vacant seats around him were almost full now.
At this time, a group of disciples of the Five Elements Temple appeared on both sides of the square, and then an old Taoist walked out, bowed to all the guests present, and spoke loudly.
"The poor road of the Five Elements of the view of the main Yuan machine Taoist, I have seen all the distinguished guests, thank you for being able to come, participate in the opening ceremony of the Five Elements Temple, now the auspicious time has come, the guests and hosts are all here, open the ceremony!"
Daoist Yuanji didn't say any nonsense, just thanked the guests present, and then immediately announced the ceremony!
After his last two words fell, Mo He only heard a burst of pleasant music in his ears, and then dozens of disciples of the Five Elements Concept, their faces became serious, and they turned around and walked to the front of the Zun Dao Hall, among which there were several disciples, still holding various things in their hands, came to the side of the Yuanji Daoist.
Yuanji Daoist first took the object in the hands of a disciple and recited it loudly, this is a tribute to the seven Dao ancestors in the Dao Temple, first the five Dao ancestors of the Congenital Five Tai, praising their great merits in creating all things and sorting out the rules of heaven and earth. Then there is the ancestor of the Terrans, praising him for ending the chaos of the Warring States and saving a catastrophe for the Terrans, and finally praising Taihe, praising her also brought a short-lived peace to this world.
Mo He looked at these and didn't show too unusual, similar to this kind of etiquette, he had read in the book, such a ritual was applicable on many occasions, not only when the sect was opened.
After reading this sacrificial text, the disciples of the Five Elements Temple bowed, and then faced the direction of the Patriarch Hall and began to worship the ancestors of the past dynasties, especially the first patriarch of the Five Elements Temple.
"Don't you think it's nothing to look at!" Su Bai turned his head to look at Mo He, just in time to see that the expression on Mo He's face was very calm, and his voice suddenly sounded in Mo He's ears.
Mo He turned his head and glanced at Su Bai, but found that Su Bai was sitting precariously, with a solemn expression on his face, looking at the front with a serious face, as if the voice he heard just now was just an illusion.
Just as Mo He turned his head, Su Bai's voice sounded again, "These are all old routines, the main thing is to show the guests around you that the Five Elements View will have a foothold in Qiongzhou in the future." ”
The corners of Mo He's mouth twitched slightly, this time he was sure that although Su Bai looked like he was sitting upright, he was indeed talking to himself, but in some hidden ways.
And the reason why the corners of Mo He's mouth twitched was that he found that several people around him seemed to be talking in a very covert way.
Mobilizing the spiritual power in his body, Mo He also learned from Su Bai's appearance and began to talk to Su Bai very secretly.
"It's really a little boring, I didn't see the picture I imagined!" Mo He replied.
"Don't be too disappointed, the opening ceremony of the Five Elements View was originally to invite someone to come over and testify, it's good to see it!"
And at this time, the Yuanji Daoist also completed the sacrifice of the Ancestor Palace, and then all the Five Elements Guan disciples turned around in unison, looking at the Wendao Hall over there, the Yuanji Daoist took a few volumes of the Dao Sutra in the hands of a disciple, walked to the steps of the Wendao Palace, and then turned to look at the disciples below.
"The Tao Yuan returns to the beginning, all things begin to open, the beginning of the form and there is no quality, ......!" Yuan Ji Daoist slowly opened a Taoist scripture in a slightly old voice, and read the first sentence of it, and then, the disciples of the Five Elements Concept below began to recite it in unison, "The Tao Yuan returns to the beginning, all things begin to open, and the beginning of the form without the quality is called the Taishi ......!"
The voices of these disciples were uniform, and there seemed to be spiritual power in their voices, giving their voices an indescribable charm, and the recitation of dozens of disciples in unison seemed to be the voices of hundreds or thousands of people.
At this moment, their voices penetrated out of the valley and spread outside, so that the people of the entire Zi'an County could hear their voices clearly.
Mo He only felt refreshed at this time, and these voices came into his mind, allowing him to have a kind of enlightenment to see the sunrise through the clouds and mist, and the innate immortal spiritual light in the sea of consciousness suddenly became radiant.
Mo He felt that his soul had once again turned into a towering giant tree at this moment, standing between the boundless waters, and the sky was no longer clear, but a misty drizzle.
The raindrops fell on his body, washing away his old bark and moistening the branches and leaves on his body, so that he couldn't help but stretch comfortably.
Under the moisture of the rain, the ice-free waters under your feet seem to continue to expand at this moment, which can provide you with more adequate nutrients and make yourself grow faster.
In the moisture of the rain, Mo He stretched his branches and leaves, and his body continued to become larger, wanting to step into a higher sky and greedily absorb more rain.
When his branches and leaves pierced the clouds, Mo He suddenly felt that his eyes lit up, and his spirit was out of this state of entering the visualization map, and his consciousness regained clarity.
As soon as he regained consciousness, Mo He saw Su Bai and Zhou Bo beside him, and Zhou Bo, who was originally standing behind Su Bai, actually appeared behind him at this time.
Seeing this scene, Mo He immediately cast a grateful look at the two of them, and at the same time sent a hidden voice, "Thank you Brother Su and Uncle Zhou for taking care of my hair!"
"It's okay, congratulations to Brother Mo, I didn't expect to break through to the middle stage of the Divine Soul at this time, Brother Mo is really talented!" Su Bai's voice also came.
Just now, because of the Dao Sutra recited by the audience of the Five Elements, Mo He broke through to the middle stage of the Divine Soul Realm, which was completely unexpected, and Mo He himself did not expect it.
The Taoist scriptures recited by the audience of the five elements are called "Taishi Jing", and Mo He has also read it, this volume of "Taishi Jing" is actually not as famous as "Yi Dao Jing", because "Taishi Jing" is not written by Taishi Daozu himself, but by those who listened to Taishi Daozu's preaching, according to their own understanding.
Mo He sometimes recites this Taoist Sutra in Qingmei Temple, but there has never been a time when he can have such an understanding as he has today and stepped into the middle stage of the Divine Soul Realm.
The sound of the Five Elements audience chanting the Taoist Sutra continued, but all the guests present, whether they were in the back row or sitting next to Mo He, everyone paid attention to Mo He, after all, Mo He had just made a breakthrough in cultivating in front of them, which naturally aroused everyone's interest.
For everyone's attention, Mo He did not show the slightest flustery or stage fright, but smiled very generously, nodding at the people who cast their eyes on him.
And everyone who saw Mo He nodding and smiling, after being stunned for a while, most of them smiled back, and then withdrew their gaze, and there were a few people, although they did not smile in return, but they also retracted their gaze and did not show any malice.
