Chapter 176 Respecting the Elderly and Loving the Young
Chapter 176 Respect the old and love the young
In the early morning of the next day, the villagers of Kaoshan village gathered at the mountain temple.
The goddess was the first to arrive. She was standing at the entrance of the mountain temple's cliff, facing the stone statue, bending down and worshiping devoutly.
Wearing a dark blue cotton coat, her gray-silver hair was meticulously combed and held up by a silver bird hairpin.
Listening to the commotion, the goddess stood up straight with a straight face, and did not pay attention to the arrival of the villagers.
Instead, he raised his head and stared at the stone statue, chanting something quickly and fluently.
The villagers who didn't understand stood quietly behind her.
Calculating the time in her mind, the goddess clasped her hands together, turned around and looked back at Qiu among the villagers, with a mocking look on her face: "The battle is about to begin. Hasn't our envoy arrived yet?"
"It's not time yet, why are you in a hurry?" Qiu's face looked impatient.
The goddess didn't care about her attitude, but said to one of the villagers: "Go and call the mountain goddess lady in the village and those from other villages over."
"Goddess, aren't unmarried men and women not allowed to go to the mountain temple? Especially those foreigners, who are not from our mountain village at all." The villager who was called was confused.
The goddess's face showed impatience: "You haven't even taken the position of the divine envoy yet, and you already disobey the orders of me, the goddess?"
"Forgive me, Goddess. I'll go back and invite them up." The villagers quickly lowered their heads.
As soon as he turned around and left the mountain temple, he saw Wan'an, dressed in rich clothes, leading the seven mountain goddess ladies and the five foreigners behind him to the mountain temple.
"Are you... the envoy of the mountain?" Mrs. Qiu looked blankly at Wan'an, who was dressed up in attendance.
Wan'an put on the wedding dress modified by Xie Juchao this morning, and also put on exquisite red-toned makeup.
The cat-eyes that were already raised at the end of her eyes were even more sharp with the makeup and her serious expression.
Moving slowly and lightly, Wan'an walked towards the mountain temple. First he clasped his hands and bowed to the stone statue, then turned slightly sideways and looked at the goddess: "It's almost time, do you want to start now?"
The goddess' eyes moved upward, from her luxurious dress to her delicate face, and finally to the golden phoenix hairpin in the bun on her head and various matching exquisite and shining golden ornaments, and her heart was filled with bets.
She nodded slightly, raised her eyelids, and glanced sideways at Wan An: "Everyone is here, let's start."
"Respect the old and love the young, do you invite the goddess first?" Wan An waved his sleeves and stretched out his hand to signal to the goddess.
The goddess narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking of all the preparations she had made last night, and nodded.
What Wan'an knows about the goddess's strength is through Hua Xiaoyao's story cards.
Regardless of whether it was reality or a copy of the game, she had watched a lot of TV dramas about such things like asking gods to manifest themselves, and this was the first time she had seen it with her own eyes.
Therefore, Wan'an stepped back, gave up his position with great interest, and quietly enjoyed the performance of the goddess.
The goddess took out a dozen yellow papers, each with Sanskrit written in ink.
An incense burner and a copper basin were placed on the tribute platform.
The goddess lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner, put the Sanskrit yellow paper written on it into a copper basin, poured some oil from the oil lamp, and lit the Sanskrit yellow paper.
The strong smell of incense spread from the tribute platform to the surroundings. The goddess walked to the entrance of the cliff with a serious face and began to chant and dance. At the same time, she chanted loudly: "Om, Xiuli, Xiuli, Maha Xiuli, Xiuxiu."
Li, Sa Po He."
"Om, Xiu Duo Xi, Xiu Duo Xi, Xiu Mo Xiu, Xiu Mo Xiu, Sa Po He. Namo Sanman Duo, Mu Tuo Nan, Om, Du Lu Du Lu, Diwei Sa Po He. Om, Qi Qi Huo.
, Sanpo Sa Po He, Cut Ri Lao Hu."
The dancing master was chanting the Diamond Sutra. The goddess turned around, raised her arms and waved in the air.
A sparrow landed in her palm and chirped.
"The mountain god is about to appear!" someone among the villagers exclaimed in a low voice.
I saw the Goddess chatting with the sparrow for a few words. After the sparrow spread its wings and flew away, the Goddess turned around, bowed to the stone statue, and shouted: "Kneel down——"
Upon hearing this order, the villagers knelt together.
