Generally speaking, they are all fat monks and thin Taoist priests.
Because Taoism pays great attention to the art of guiding movements, and there are many Taoist priests traveling around.
In addition, Taoist robes are wide and can cover the body shape.
Therefore, what we see every day are mostly thin people with fluttering sleeves and long bodies. .
But the person standing on top is obviously not young anymore, at least over 60 years old, and he is already in his 70s.
Except for his plump, round and red face, which is a bit special, no matter how he looks elsewhere, he looks like a fat old man.
The hair on her head is already completely white but not much.
It is pulled up into a small Taoist bun with a peach wood hairpin stuck in it.
The Taoist robe is naturally brand new, and there are many patterns on it.
Xia Xiaodong can't understand it anyway, but this special Taoist robe still can't cover the sizable belly, and the two feet exposed below are even more fleshy.
It's round and round, and it's definitely enough to stew trotters in a pot.
If this man hadn't been holding a peach wood sword that looked quite old at first glance, Xia Xiaodong would have thought it was a Taoist priest who came up to place a sacrifice.
"That one" Xia Xiaodong pointed secretly.
The target was too big to miss anyway: "Is that Taoist Xuanyuan?"
Lu Yunzhi, who was sitting next to him, nodded: "Well, he has gained some weight."
It seems that Taoist Xuanyuan is still fat in a traditional way.
"Standing on both sides of the sacrificial platform are the two Taoist priests Jing Yu and Ming Xin."
Lu Yunzhi pointed to the two middle-aged Taoist priests wearing Taoist crowns and robes, holding whisks, and looking dignified.
These two seemed to fit the image of a Taoist priest so well that they were almost invisible due to the huge contrast between them.
The altar looks quite tall, with as many as three floors.
It is built with civil engineering.
It does not look like a temporary building.
It is probably that it originally existed in Taiyi Temple and was just renovated.
The two floors below were neatly filled with little Taoist priests.
I don't know where they found them.
They were all about the same height.
Each of them was holding a small three-legged cauldron in his hand.
The huge hourglass placed on one side constantly reminds the time, and the ritual officer chants strange words loudly from time to time, while the little Taoist priests are well-trained to respond.
It feels like a big stage play.
Just when Xia Xiaodong thought this, he heard a loud bang, which seemed to be a salute.
Then he heard the music and rituals, and Taoist Xuanyuan standing in the center of the altar really started to dance.
I saw the mahogany sword in his hand flying up and down, the robe on his body fluttering in the wind, and he moved quickly to different directions on the altar with agility that was extremely inconsistent with his body.
It's quite nice.
To be able to become the most famous Taoist priest in the country, Xuanyuan Li also has some skills.
Between the opening and closing of the movements, there was quite a turbulent momentum, and there was a faint sound of thunder somewhere.
Everyone looked up to the sky in unison, but could not find a single cloud.
When they lowered their heads and looked at Taoist Xuanyuan again, their eyes were filled with awe.
Xia Xiaodong didn't believe that this person could trigger thunder from the sky.
When would the situation turn into a fantasy?
Xia Xiaodong looked around and looked at the circular decorations painted with Tai Chi patterns on the side of the altar with suspicion.
In front of each Tai Chi figure, there is a little Taoist priest standing, dancing and performing in conjunction with Taoist Xuanyuan.
If this thing was made of leather and had a loudspeaker box installed inside, wouldn't it be similar to a big drum?
It wouldn't be difficult to knock out a few muffled thunders.
While I was thinking about it, there was a new pattern above.
From all sides of the altar, four teams of young Taoist priests worked together to bring up four large vats.

It looks quite heavy and there is something inside.
The vats were placed according to directions, which obviously should represent all directions.
The young Taoist priests retreated to the rear respectfully, while Taoist Master Xuanyuan walked among them.
Wherever the peach wood sword pointed, the contents of the vat suddenly ignited, and soon it was It's booming.
Taoist Xuanyuan in the center was obviously not very afraid of the fire.
He muttered Taoist formulas and walked past the vats one by one.
Strangely enough, as soon as he walked by, the fire in the vat would naturally go out.
When all the fires were extinguished, rituals and music flourished all around, and several etiquette officials sang in unison: "Peace in the world, peace in the world" that's all besides.
In the end, Taoist Xuanyuan drew a peace talisman with talisman water on a huge talisman paper on the spot.
The talisman water clearly looked like clear water, but it was actually pure water.
It was just clear water that had been recited with a talisman.
However, when it was painted on the yellow talisman paper, it showed red marks, which caused a murmur of admiration.
It is said that this talisman will be posted on a certain door of the palace according to the position calculated by Taoist Master Xuanyuan, and it can protect the Ning family's world for a year of peace.
It will have to be replaced with a new one next year.
It won't work if you don't change it.
The handwriting will gradually fade or even disappear on its own.
This is of course evidence that the power of blessing is constantly being consumed and weakened.
After the practice, Taoist Xuanyuan was very exhausted.
There were beads of sweat on his forehead in the cold weather, and his stomach seemed to be smaller.
With the support of two disciples, Jing Yu and Ming Xin, he walked slowly down the altar.
This is of course.
If you are still full of energy after completing the task, doesn't it mean that you have not tried your best?
Xia Xiaodong was stunned.
That's it, the acting skills are very good, but the thunder hidden under the altar, the low-burning light, and the red letters written in clear water are too childish.
For Xia Xiaodong, whose main occupation is chemistry, it is as easy as playing house for a child.
Lu Yunzhi stabbed Xia Xiaodong and said with a smile, "How come Taoist Xuanyuan has extraordinary skills?
I think you were stunned."
I'm stunned.
I'm so shocked that I'm so shocked on the outside and tender on the inside.
How can I not be stunned?
"There will be a small distribution of peace charms at the door later.
Let's go and get a few.
This is only useful if we collect it in person."
Lu Yunzhi sat steadily and allowed others to leave gradually.
Xia Xiaodong also sat steadily.
This is the same as when a movie ends.
There is no need to follow the swarm out, chat a few words, and then go out relaxedly at the end.
"Taoist Xuanyuan came all the way here just to do such a ritual."
Xia Xiaodong was not sure whether it was called a ritual, it felt more like a dancing master.
"This sacrificial ceremony cannot be performed by a Taoist priest with high virtues, high prestige and powerful magic, so we have to work hard for Taoist Xuanyuan."
Lu Yunzhi said with a smile: "According to the situation in previous years, his old man would stay in the capital for a month or two, and many people would Looking forward to him."
In the side hall of the Sanqing Hall not far from Xia Xiaodong and Lu Yunzhi, Taoist Priest Xuanyuan took the handkerchief handed over by Jingyu, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and slapped the handkerchief He slapped Jingyu on the shoulder.
"Why aren't you so stupid?"
Taoist Xuanyuan got angry at him
