I was born on the winter solstice, a day of extreme yin, which made me inherently prone to attracting evil spirits.
From ghost walls and ghost operas to ghost possessions and scapegoats, veng...
Chapter 59
The next day at noon, Erma set up the altar and prepared to help Zheng Yunyun change her fate at the Tianshi Mansion. Changing fate was a major event, and many people were watching. Among those I was familiar with were Tianshi Zhang, Master Zhang, Li Danyang, Liu Danchen, and even Zhang Tianshi's chief disciple, Xie Yunfei. They were all dressed in formal attire, watching the scene. There were also many disciples below, making the crowd enormous.
For Erma, this fate-changing ritual was a test of her strength, so everyone in the Tianshi Mansion came to watch.
Zheng Yunyun sat in the center of the square. Below her was a round piece of green linen with a yellow square painted in the middle. Zheng Yunyun sat in the middle of the square.
The ancients said that the sky is round and the earth is square, and the sky is blue and the earth is yellow. This piece of cloth is an extremely important Taoist formation, called the Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang Formation. Its main function is to change people's destiny.
Erma was dressed especially formally today. She set up the altar and placed offerings such as flowers, fruit, water, and banners. Around Zheng Yunyun, the five elements—gold, wood, water, fire, and earth—were placed in their proper positions. Around Zheng Yunyun's neck, a five-colored auspicious string symbolizing the five elements was also worn, symbolizing the unity of heaven and man.
Erma first offered sacrifices to Heaven and Earth, then to the Three Pure Ones. She then began sprinkling cleansing water over Zheng Yunyun and chanted the "Divine Mantra for Purifying Heaven and Earth." She then stepped on the Gangdou step, synchronizing with the White Crane Art, repeating this process three times around Zheng Yunyun. Finally, she placed the Heavenly Master Sword beside her. This sword was believed to be the modern Heavenly Master Sword of Heavenly Master Zhang Pingyin. As for the one Liu Danchen had obtained, it was in Master Zhang's possession.
Then she began to burn incense and write Zheng Yunyun's birth date and destiny document with cinnabar. As she put the last stroke of the pen, she arrived at the most crucial step of changing her destiny.
My heart couldn't help but rise, and even everyone in the Tianshi Mansion held their breath and looked at Erma.
Erma recited the "Duren Sutra", which is also called "Taishang Dongxue Lingbao Wuliang Duren Shangpin Miaojing", and is known as "the first of all sutras and the ancestor of all dharmas".
"The best and most wonderful head, saves people ten times. The red text of the chaotic cave, the supreme truth."
As the words of the "Duren Jing" were recited, a gust of wind arose, and the sky and earth changed color. As the wind blew through the formation, Erma lit a talisman with the peach wood sword in his hand, and it flew into the sky. The talisman spontaneously ignited without fire, and the entire formation stabilized.
There was a faint sound of thunder in the sky.
Erma continued to chant, and a powerful pressure came over them. The pressure grew stronger and stronger, and with a crackling sound of thunder, it struck the two of them directly.
At this time, the Yin-Yang Formation of Heaven and Earth came into play. It formed a space of its own and protected the two of them.
In that space, Erma chanted a spell, and a faint Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish began to swim over Zheng Yunyun's body. As it swam, the energy of heaven and earth was drawn up. The aura around Zheng Yunyun began to become chaotic.
This Yin-Yang formation of heaven and earth disrupted the atmosphere, causing the space where Zheng Yunyun was to be temporarily chaotic.
Zheng Yunyun's destiny began to change after being disturbed by this chaotic aura.
But it is easier said than done. In just a moment, Erma was sweating profusely.
We were also worried about her and hoped that she could finish it as soon as possible.
The air was clearly becoming stagnant, and her movements were also slowing down. Her steps were much slower.
The whole ceremony was very long, lasting from noon until after three in the afternoon. I was tired of standing on the side watching, not to mention Erma who presided over the ceremony.
Finally, the yin-yang fish in the field faded, and finally entered Zheng Yunyun's body. Now her destiny had changed, and she only waited for the final step.
“Crack!”
A bolt of lightning struck the field and headed straight for Zheng Yunyun.
The Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Formation couldn't withstand the thunder's onslaught and shattered instantly. But the moment of resistance was enough for Erma to react. She held the Celestial Master Sword beside Zheng Yunyun, and the thunder was attracted to the Celestial Master Sword and struck it.
This Tianshi Sword is similar to a lightning rod.
At this point, the whole process is completed.
The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and a rainbow appeared over Longhu Mountain.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The elders at the Tianshi Mansion laughed, especially Master Zhang, who looked at Erma with a look of satisfaction. The remaining disciples were all whispering to each other, praising Erma's prowess.
She is only in her twenties, and it is rare for her to be able to achieve this. After the elders left, Li Danyang stayed behind and praised Erma.
After hearing Li Danyang's praise, Erma showed a happy expression under her tired face. This was her first time changing someone's fate, and it was impossible for her to say that she was not nervous.
After Li Danyang left, she suddenly hugged me and jumped up excitedly. I wiped the sweat off her face and was happy for her.
Next, they had to wait for Zheng Yunyun to wake up on her own. Erma left two disciples here to guard her.
At this time, the phone rang. I saw it was Xiaorong and quickly answered it. But the person on the other end said that someone was causing trouble and asked me to go back quickly.
When I heard this, I was so upset that I quickly called Zhang Song and asked him to help deal with it. I was worried that Xiaorong, a little girl, would suffer.
Erma saw my face change and asked me what happened. I said I had to go back to the store. I asked Mao Jianming to wait for Zheng Yunyun here, and I went down the mountain and drove back to the store.
When I hurried to the store, I saw a man and a woman shouting in the store. They should be the ones Xiaorong mentioned who came to cause trouble.
I saw Xiaorong hiding behind Zhang Song and asked her, "Are you okay?"
Xiao Rong smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister, Brother Song is here."
I nodded to Zhang Song, then looked at the couple.
I don't know this man and woman, and as far as I can remember, they have never bought Dao cards from my store.
"What are you two doing?" I asked them.
"You are the boss here, right? I bought a Taoist amulet from you last time. The girl said it was very effective. Why haven't I gotten pregnant after so long?" The woman pointed at me and said.
She had a strong scent of perfume on her body, which went straight into my nose. She was dressed in branded clothes and had her arms around the man's arm.
At this time, the man also looked at me, but his eyes made me feel very uncomfortable. He had been staring at me since I entered the door.
"Husband!" The woman moaned and pulled the man's arm twice.
The man finally came to his senses and said, "Baby, you can't get pregnant just by saying so."
The woman was unwilling to hear this and said, "Are you attracted to this vixen?"
As he said this, he walked towards me and raised his hand to hit me.
I quickly stretched out my arms to stop her, but before her hand could touch me, she was completely controlled by Zhang Song.
"Hit someone, hit someone." the woman shouted.
"Shut up, or you'll be speechless for the rest of your life!" Zhang Song said fiercely.
Until now, I am still confused and don’t understand what is going on.
