My weird life

406, Ceremony of becoming a family elder (1/2)

There were samurai patrolling both inside and outside the Inoue family's manor.

In the manor, in front of the open space in the middle hall, many warriors lined up and gathered here.

The number of samurai gathered in the open space in front of the central hall now far exceeds the number of samurai in the Inoue family in the past few days.

In the name of ‘worshiping the head of the family’,

Inoue Haruko and her family elder "Inoue Canteruo" gathered all the manor owners who were scattered across Boqi Kingdom, occupied a large number of fields in Boqi Kingdom, and swore allegiance to the Inoue family.

A major purge was carried out on these manor owners.

After the great cleansing,

Many manor owners were removed from their names,

There were also samurai who took advantage of the situation and were appointed by the Inoue family as the new owners of the manor.

The old forces who showed their 'rebellious hearts' were wiped out. The Inoue family took the shortest possible time to control the situation in Boqi Country and incorporated the samurai who were loyal to the old forces into the Inoue family.

During this great purge,

The shadow of the family elder "Inoue Canzhao" is always looming.

invisibly,

He has used cruel methods and overwhelming power to recapture the rebellious manors one by one. In one operation after another,

Gradually gain the loyalty and respect of all warriors.

at this time,

In the central hall where all the retainers and warriors are paying attention,

The memorial altar of the former head of the family, Toshio Inoue, has not yet been removed.

Before the altar,

A ceremony is going on.

The only reputable old man left in the Inoue family cautiously advanced the various rituals.

Miss Haruko burned incense and prayed in front of her father’s altar.

Burning sacrifices,

Display a richly decorated sword in front of the altar.

The old man walked forward tremblingly, holding a piece of silk, and recited the long sacrificial inscription on the silk in a desolate and melodious tone.

The sacrificial text coincides with the melody, but it is also catchy when recited, and there is a hint of Zen in it.

The meaning of the memorial text is to inform 'Toshio Inoue' under Jiuquan that now the Inoue family has a new head, and the new head will uphold his ambition and carry forward the Inoue family.

In order to better fulfill the expectations of our parents,

Now, the new head of the family, Haruko Inoue, will officially establish a patriarch for the family.

Today is an auspicious day to pay homage to the elder, and I hope that Toshio Inoue will agree to this matter.

After the old man recited the sacrificial inscription once,

Just put the silk into the brazier,

Let the raging fire burn the silk into ashes.

After the ashes have completely cooled,

He found a brocade bag, put the ashes in it, and enshrined it in front of the spiritual altar.

Until this time, the old man finally breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "The ancestors agreed with Miss Qingzi to appoint Zhuzhao Jun as the patriarch of our family!

Miss Haruko, please offer the ‘Heirloom Sword’ to ‘Zhuzhao-kun’! "

The old man's voice fell,

Haruko, who was silent and dressed in plain clothes, bowed and saluted her father's altar.

Then he took off the ornately decorated sword enshrined in front of the altar,

She stood up and moved her steps slightly,

The little feet under the skirt only take a short distance with each step.

Xiao Xiaobu approached Su Wu, who was sitting cross-legged on a futon, facing the warrior outside the central hall.

Miss Haruko's eyelashes fluttered, and a warm smile appeared on her sweet and delicate face. She held the tachi that could be regarded as a 'ceremonial instrument' in one hand, carefully lifted the hem of her skirt with the other hand, and knelt down in front of Su Wu.

Perform the "Tuxia seat" ceremony!

The warriors outside the hall howled,

The exciting sound resounded throughout the manor and beyond!

"My dear! My dear!"

"Elder Zhuzhao!"

"Miss Haruko!"

Amidst the cheers of the warriors outside the hall, Haruko raised the sword above her head and asked Su Wu to take it.

She almost pressed her face against the floor, tears quietly leaking out of the corners of her eyes.

Su Wu never expected that Qingzi would arrange such a ceremony.

He never thought about showing off his power in front of a girl who had lost both her parents and her family. All he did was to bring the Boqi Kingdom under control as soon as possible, and then began to excavate the ‘Jade Mountain Killing Stone Mine’!

But now before the invisible,

His own behavior seems to have oppressed Haruko, a girl who lost her family.

He frowned deeply,

He stretched out his hand to grab the tachi, and held Miss Haruko's arm with the other hand, and then stood up from the futon.

Supported by the power bursting from his hands,

Haruko also stood up involuntarily.

The cheers outside the door were louder.

Haruko, with her head hanging down and tears leaking from the corners of her eyes, leaned her head on Su Wu's chest. Her shallow, thin voice passed over the cheers of the crowd and reached Su Wu's ears: "Thank you, Abu."

In a quiet room.

The sunlight shines in from the window lattice, and little bits of light and dust fall on Su Wu's shoulders.

Su Wu sat cross-legged on the futon, with a short table in front of her.

Behind the case, there is Haruko sitting upright and kneeling.

Haruko lowered her eyebrows, took out three things from the big box behind her, and placed them on the desk.

That is, the three items are the 'Dragon of Baixiang Ink Ritual - Seal', 'Infant Stone - The Secret Key of the Jade Color Mountain Killing Stone Mine', and 'The Chain Suspected to be Presented by the Master of True Appraisal'.

On the left and right sides of the bill,

There are also two tachi swords.

They are all ornately decorated ‘ceremony knives’.

One knife is held by the family elder Su Wu, and the other knife is owned by the family leader Qingzi.

Qingzi put a piece of silk cloth on the chain decorated with many talismans, and said to Su Wu: "This piece of silk cloth has the usage of this chain written on it. It was given to me by Master Jianzhen who came east from the Tang Dynasty. Uncle Xiong's stuff.

Uncle Axiong has gone away,

Now I return it to its original owner. "

After finishing speaking, she reminded Su Wu in a low voice: "The silk cloth says that this chain will cause harm to those who have the power of ghosts and gods. Abu, you must be careful when touching this thing."

"good."

Su Wu nodded.

He reached out and picked up the folded piece of silk on the chain.

open it,

I also saw the content on it.

"Killing is to protect life, killing karma is not killing people."

“Buddha said: If I don’t go to hell, who will?

Now I know the true meaning of Ksitigarbha,

May this body forever suppress hell. "

"Now I have forged a pair of 'Tie Binding Ropes', which I will give to little friend Fei Xiong.

My little friend is walking on Dongliu Island,

You can use this chain to bind Li Gui to protect yourself.

The chain is forged with ‘killing stone’,

The seventy-seven and forty-nine handprints of the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" meditated by the poor monk are used as command mantras, and they are engraved on the talisman. People who usually control the magic must remember not to come into contact with this thing, otherwise they will be bound by it. .

My little friend has a ‘strength armor’ to protect him.

As long as the force of Li Wei can be suppressed, using this chain is not a problem. "

Most of what is written on the silk are some of the insights of Master Jianzhen on spiritual practice.

I don’t know how long ago,

This monk, who traveled east to Japan and was named the 'Great Monk', embraced the 'Killing Stone' during the process of practicing the precepts and used himself to resist the endless evil thoughts emitted by the Killing Stone.

Finally, I had an epiphany,

I saw the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva\

,"The light breaks the dust prison,

From then on, he began to further implement and implement his great ambition - "Eternal Suppression of Hell"!

This 'trap' is the product of his practice.

According to its description,

The sharp awls at the two sections of the chain can pierce Li Jui and fix Li Jui's true form.

Then he wrapped Li Gui with chains,

It can temporarily suppress Li Wei.

Su Wu saw some of the handwriting written by Master Jianzhen on the silk cloth and couldn't help but be speechless. In the eyes of 'Axiong', this Master Jianzhen was just a 'mortal' and had never carved any ink patterns on himself. Or use the power of 'Shengren A'.

But such a mortal,

But he was holding a stone that was definitely not of low quality, and might even be the 'Killing Mother Stone'. He used himself to resist the evil thoughts and murderous intentions and terrifying aura emitted by this stone, and finally had an epiphany in such a harsh environment.

——It can be seen from this that even though Jianzhen is an ordinary person, his character and spirit are definitely not what ordinary people can have.

I just don’t know,

Is this master still alive today?

He didn’t have a ‘survivor’, so the chance of surviving to this day was very small.

Judging from the current situation on Dongliu Island,

His grand vision of "eternally suppressing hell\

,"It probably hasn't been implemented yet.

Su Wu folded the silk cloth and put it in his arms.

He then reached out to grab the 'trap' on the desk - before his fingers touched the chain, the chain stood up like a snake, and the sharp cone at the top pierced Su Wu's palm. !

At this moment,

Binding Guisuo sensed the fierce aura contained in Su Wu himself!

"Abu!"

When Haruko saw this, she quickly reminded her.

Fortunately, Su Wu reacted on his own without any need for her to remind him.

He followed the certain touch that the 'Tianpeng-Wei Lin Seal' brought to him. Before the chain pierced him, he moved the five fingers of his palm together to form a handprint - once the handprint was completed, the power of Canopy's killing power would automatically disappear. Su Wu appeared all over,

The sharp cone at the top of the chain that stabbed Su Wu,

At this moment, he suddenly ‘hangs his head’,

The chain coiled around Su Wu's palm like a snake.

Wrap around the five fingers,

It turned into shallow lines and gathered on the five fingers of Su Wu's left hand.

As Su Wu retracted his palm,

The lines on the palm gradually faded and disappeared without a trace!

‘Canopy-Palm Torture Seal’ has absorbed this instrument of torture!

The ability of the chains to bind Li Gui has not disappeared because of this.

As long as Su Wu needs it, it can appear in Su Wu's hands at any time!

"The chain disappeared..." Qingzi didn't know the inside story and looked at Su Wu nervously.

Until Su Wu shook his head with a smile and said to her: "I put the chains away and they haven't really disappeared. Miss Haruko doesn't have to worry."

Hearing his words, Haruko breathed a sigh of relief.

She pointed to the second thing on the note - 'The Secret of the Dragon of Baixiang's Ink Ink - Seal', and said to Su Wu: "This is a more powerful ink ink diagram than the ink ink diagram of the Sword Forging Institute.

Abu, take it if you need it.

There is also a bottle of blood of ghosts and gods inside,

In conjunction with the veins on the body of the 'Dashang Infant Stone', the dragon of Baixiang can be engraved on it to maximize its fit with the ink drawing.

Unleash the power of ink drawings! "

After speaking,

She sat there silently, looking at the secret seal, waiting for Su Wu to take it away.

"The Dragon of Hundred Thoughts?"

Su Wu picked up the long iron box of the killing stone.

Opening the lid revealed one of the animal skin scrolls.

At the end of this scroll,

There is a small iron bottle the size of a baby's fist.

There is a cloth strip on the bottle.

It says: Blood of ghosts and gods - taken from the 'Seventh Hole of the Nine Heart Stone' in the Jade Mountain Killing Stone Mine.

Nine Heart Stone?

A killing stone formed by nine heart stones?

Su Wu thought to himself,

unscrewed the iron kettle,

and a faint strange charm floated out of it.

This strange charm did come from the body of the evil spirit,

but the strange charm was in a state of ‘sleeping’.

It can trigger the power of the evil spirit,

but it is harmless to people!

The more ordinary people come into contact with the strange charms of many evil spirits, the more they will feel ‘dying’, their bodies will become weak, and they may even faint. This kind of strange charm is simply a poison!

However,

the strange charm that floated out of the small iron kettle at this moment,

because of its characteristic of being ‘sleeping’, it has lost its killing power to living things.

When people come into contact with this thing,

they will be afraid because of its unique breath,

but they will not be really hurt by it!
