Chapter 6 Longevity(2/2)

Turning around, I saw that the temple at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain was filled with incense and there was an endless stream of people visiting. There were also some devout believers who slowly climbed up the winding mountain staircase to reach Jietianguan at the top of the mountain to worship at the top of Xiangshan Mountain.

Worship - oh, I should say, go to the place closest to the sky to worship the elephant god.

Wu Jie has not inquired about the origin of this tradition, but he does not reject this kind of thing.

In his eyes, the power of faith is constantly seeping into the Elephant Mountain. Although the number is not very large, if it is accumulated day by day and year by year, it may have turned into the towering Cangshan Yishan Elephant, and there will be some who are sealed because of their faith.

God, when will the day come again?

Although... maybe he can't see that far...

Wu Jie stood in the clouds and sighed for a long time. Seeing that it was almost noon, he lowered his head and returned to Zhifeizhai.

Zhifeizhai is still located in the Wuhou Mansion in Anfeng County. Today, the Wuhou Mansion is particularly lively. Although there are no deliberately decorated lights, many guests are here and they are full of joy.

They were celebrating Wu Jie's birthday, or in other words, celebrating the "Wuhou Festival".

According to the tradition of Anfeng County, today is the official day of the Wuhou Festival. People with status and fame in the county will be invited to the Wuhou Mansion for dinner, and running water mats have been set up in the square in front of the government office. Anyone passing by

Everyone can have a meal - admittedly there won't be any delicacies from the mountains and seas, but the dishes are a combination of meat and vegetables, hot and fragrant, and in conjunction with the lunch time, everyone who passes by will inevitably have their fingers moved.

Most people in Anfeng County will come to eat this meal, and even many people will come from far away. It’s not because they are greedy or greedy, but just to be happy. After finishing this meal, people will come here in this county

Under the leadership of the elders, a long procession was formed and went to Wuhou Cemetery to conduct large-scale worship.

After the worship, a blessing ceremony will be held. It is said that some people actually received blessings during the blessing ceremony.

Of course Wu Jie would not specifically cast a spell in response to the blessing ceremony, but the collective belief of people was a powerful force. It was natural that one or two lucky people would benefit from it.

He covered his image with a blindfold, walked all the way through the lively streets, walked into the Wuhou Mansion, passed through several layers of formations shrouded in the mansion, and arrived at Zhifeizhai in the backyard.

There is a cave formation around Zhifeizhai, and many houses are scattered in a small space. When Wu Jie arranged it like this, he just wanted to pass this cave house to his disciples in the future, so that it could be a decoration. Now look at it

Come, it is indeed a wise move

Many guests have already arrived. Some of them have a quiet personality and live in the house; some like to join in the fun and run around to help. As for the general in charge of the overall situation, it is naturally the third sister Du Ruodu.

"Do you have any objections to me presiding over the 100th birthday of the fourth child?" When discussing the birthday in Qingyang Mountain, Du Ruo suddenly became energetic and said that it would be most appropriate for him to preside over the entire birthday celebration. At that time, Du Ruo became more energetic.

Naturally, some people raised objections - although the custom of favoring boys over girls is not very serious in Kyushu, it is rare for women to host such major celebrations.

It should be noted that a 100th birthday is a very important celebration. If it is a mortal's 100th birthday, the emperor of the country will send an imperial envoy to celebrate the birthday, and often give a handwritten plaque and a dragon head that can only be used by the royal family.

crutches to show respect for the elders.

Although monks have a very long lifespan, no matter how long it is, it is limited. Even the real Huandan Master generally only has a lifespan of a thousand years. For them, a hundred years is almost equivalent to one-tenth of the lifespan of a mortal.

I would like to celebrate my birthday in the tenth year, and this is definitely not a big deal.

Not to mention, for monks who have entered Taoism, who make up the majority of monks in the world, their 100th birthday means that most of their lives have passed. How can they not celebrate it properly?

"So we should be more serious..." An Ziqing muttered.

Du Ruoliu's eyebrows stood up, and the pressure of the golden elixir realm was completely released, and he immediately blocked the rest of his words.

So the matter was settled.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie couldn't help but smile.
