A treasure-appraisal maniac

Seeing that it was almost noon, all the tourists were excited and ready to witness the opening ceremony with their own eyes.

The theory of consecration is quite legendary.

Legend has it that in ancient times, someone painted a dragon that was so lifelike that as long as you clicked on its eyes, the dragon would come alive and fly away. This is quite exaggerated.

The dragon was dead before its eyes were dotted, but after its eyes were dotted, it became alive.

The painter's action of painting the eyes is called consecration. ??

In the same way, the jade carver's action of carving the eyes is also a consecration.

The original meaning of consecration is very simple and clear. It is just to add eyes to the statues of gods. After the eyes of portraits and stone statues are decorated by masters, everyone thinks that the statues of gods have spirituality and can exert miraculous protective abilities.

This is what the world thinks of consecration.

Therefore, consecration means that people with certain spiritual achievements can eliminate the bad magnetic field of objects by holding seals and chanting mantras, and adding special spiritual power.

This magnetic field endows items with special spiritual power, making items like handicrafts an item that can adjust feng shui or a lucky item that protects oneself.

If a statue of a god or an auspicious handicraft is not consecrated, it is just a work of art and cannot be used for people to pay homage and worship. Only after consecration and blessing or chanting sutras can it have aura.

The consecration ceremony originated from Taoism and folk customs. Since Buddhism was influenced by China's original culture during its spread, this ceremony was easily accepted.

Buddhism also has a method of consecration, which involves reciting mantras, opening jade, and pouring spiritual energy into it, which can ward off evil spirits. This is the same as Taoist consecration.

The official use of consecration comes from Taoism, and consecration is one of the Taoist rituals.

Consecration is to inject the invisible true spirit in the universe with boundless power into the statue of the god, and the god statue also has the spirituality with boundless power.

Therefore, consecration is an essential ritual after the statue of the god is enshrined.

Originally there was no consecration in Buddhism, but there was a ritual of blessing Buddha statues, which was similar to consecration. Until now, it is all called consecration.

The Taoist method of consecrating a statue of a god requires a highly skilled mage to select a good and auspicious day to perform the consecration ceremony.

The ceremony includes twelve kinds of rituals: purification, inviting gods, issuing decrees, issuing orders, seven stars, eight trigrams, entering the spirit, imperial pen, imperial mirror, imperial rooster, consecration, and hair hair.

Let the respectful gods gather in the statue, and with the help of his power, the worshiper's luck will improve, and he will be able to make money and work easily, and then he can set it up at home or in the temple for people to worship and bless him with peace.

The difference between Taoist statues and others is that Taoist statues have rituals to enter the gods, the purpose of which is to have gods permanently present.

Zhao Yuting, who has a professional background, and other Taoist priests are very familiar with these rituals.

Under the command of the temple owner Zhao Yuting, the Taoist priests divided their labors and began to arrange the Dharma platform.

The heads of the Sanqing Dharma statues in the hall were covered with red cloth.

There is a solid wood tray placed in the middle of the altar table.

The tray is made of red cloth and covered with yellow paper. On the yellow paper sit three gilded Dharma statues.

This is the golden statue of the Three Pure Ones given to Yanqing Temple by Zhu Yuanzhang.

It is said to be a golden body, but it is not made of pure gold, but gilded bronze.

These three statues have been worshiped by more than a dozen emperors in the Ming Dynasty and blessed by countless Taoist priests for hundreds of years. They are now the supreme magical tools of Taoism.

These three golden bodies were also covered with red cloth, but Lu Fei could clearly feel the mysterious magnetic field.

This magnetic field is the so-called mana.

With this kind of magnetic field, Lu Fei could be sure that this was absolutely authentic without having to lift the red cloth.

There is only one red thread connecting the Dharma statues to each other, and it is led all the way to the outside of the palace door. There are two flagpoles outside the palace door, and the red thread must be wrapped between the flagpoles.

Wrap it around, and then connect the two ends together, so that the red wire becomes a whole.

There is a chair placed in the middle of the two flagpoles outside the temple gate, and a Taoist holds a mirror close to the red line.

The mirror faces the palace door. There are two people standing at the door. They each hold a mirror in their hands. One of them is responsible for catching the light from the mirror outside the palace door.

The other is responsible for projecting this refracted light onto each of the statues.

Between the lights, seven Taoist priests wearing apricot-yellow robes holding peach wood swords formed the shape of the Seven-Star Big Dipper Formation.

The seven Taoist priests stood as still as a pine tree, with solemn and solemn expressions.

Behind these seven Taoist priests, there were seven men standing.

These seven people have one thing in common, they are all horses.

This is the method proposed by Lu Fei. The twelve zodiac signs corresponding to noon are horses.

Seven men born in the Year of the Horse bring their masculine energy with them to bless the seven Taoist protectors in the Beidou Formation.

In this way, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

The next ceremony is to bring the light of the sun, moon and stars from nature into the temple, so that the statues enshrined in the temple can inherit the aura of heaven and earth and create the well-being of all people.

However, the blessings consecrated today correspond only to Lu Fei's four large iron pear wood boxes.

Some Taoist priests don't know the details and are somewhat confused.

Isn’t it just four boxes?

Is it necessary to engage in such a big battle?

This is too wasteful!

In fact, how did they know that there were more than 20,000 objects in the four boxes that needed to be consecrated.

Moreover, it also carries the energy of dragon and phoenix. Without such a formation, it would not be able to achieve the effect at all.

Their previous patron would have been worried to death. If Lu Fei hadn't proposed this method, Zhao Yuting would have cried.

Everything is ready, and the time has just arrived at noon.

Noon is the time when Yang Qi is the strongest among the twelve hours.

Today's auspicious time happens to be noon.

Blessed by the Yang Qi at noon and the afterglow of the Big Dipper, the essence of heaven and earth, the consecration ceremony will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

The great master Zhao Yuting, together with Ma Qingfeng and a junior disciple, paid homage to the golden statue of Sanqing Taoist Master with a solemn expression, and then offered incense.

When the incense is inserted into the incense burner, a mysterious aura bursts out instantly.

Not only Lu Fei, but also the audience near the front row felt a slight wave of heat hitting their faces at this moment.

Feeling this heat wave, people feel extremely comfortable.

"Wow!"

"How amazing!"

"For a moment, I felt so comfortable!"

"Me too, me too!"

"It seems that there really is magic power somewhere!"

"Shh!"

"You all shut up!"

"The consecration ceremony will begin soon. Don't talk nonsense."

"If you disturb Taoist Master from casting spells, be careful of backlash."

"Maybe I will be unlucky for several years!"

"Oh my god!"

"real or fake?"

"Is it that evil?"

"Nonsense, of course."

"If you don't believe it, just try it!"

"Mom!"

"I don't dare, I'd better watch carefully."

The whole place fell silent, and Zhao Yuting had already begun to practice.

Wearing Bagua fairy clothes, holding a fly whisk in hand, stepping on Tiangang steps, and chanting words.

The other Taoist priests had equally serious expressions, and the front of Sanqing Hall was full of mystery.
