Chapter 2788 |˙˙) Luotian Dajiao? Is it delicious? What ingredients are used to dip it?
As the saying goes: If you have money, you can push the devil around, but if you don’t have money, you can push the ghost around?
Anyway, under Annie's incredible gold ingot offensive, Xu San of the Nadoutong Express Company was quickly defeated and completely defeated.
As a result, her request was quickly met 100% without any discounts.
Isn’t this?
Just the second night after using the 'gold ingot method', Annie was picked up by a luxury car with two flags on it and moved into her new villa, and she officially moved into the apartment that Xu San had left in the city.
It is a large villa with the best environment, the most convenient transportation, the most luxurious decoration, the largest garden, the most expensive and the most complete services that can be found.
As one of the few acquaintances or friends (?), Feng Baobao, Zhang Chulan and Xu Si were also invited to the big villa and participated in the 'moving-in party' for Anne's new house.
As the second housekeeper, Xu San himself does not need to be invited.
After all, he is not as shameless as Xu Si. He shamelessly insisted on coming even though he was not invited. He did not bring any gifts or give any red envelopes. He even said shamelessly that he wanted to try the cooking of top chefs.
Is the art really as good as the legend says?
As for whether the top chef with an annual salary of one million is good at cooking, we still don’t know. After all, the dinner party has not started yet. Therefore, Feng Baobao, Zhang Chulan and Xu Si, who were invited by Xu San to join in the fun and recognize the family, they are just
I visited and marveled at the luxurious mansion, which was brightly lit and resplendent. Even the floor, most furniture and some screens were all made of precious mahogany. The whole house exuded the fragrance of natural wood from inside to outside.
Not long after, the four of them arrived at the spacious and bright dining room on the first floor, which was no smaller than the living room they had just visited. Then their eyes began to be attracted to those young and beautiful maids unconsciously.
Watching them shuttle between the villa and the restaurant, watching them busy setting up the dinner party, watching their every move reveal youth and elegance.
Especially Zhang Chulan, she almost couldn't move her eyes away.
You know, he was tortured almost crazy by the curse of the palace guard sand. Now he saw a large group of maids, and they were all cute types, royal sister types, intellectual types, gentle types, etc.
Yes, how can he control this kind of man's paradise?
"..."
Anyway, Zhang Chulan just stared at the scene in front of him with his eyes wide open, looking hard and greedily at the scene in front of him. After a long time, he couldn't help but exclaimed:
"It's really outrageous!"
"How much will this cost?"
"Is this really An Daxian's home?"
His face was full of envy and wonder, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"..."
"..."
In response, Xu San and Xu Si looked at each other and smiled. They had obviously expected it and were not too surprised by Zhang Chulan's reaction.
"yes!"
"This kind of place is not affordable for ordinary people."
As he said that, Xu San, who still had a lot of bandages on his body, couldn't help but shook his head slightly and sighed.
In the past, he would never dare to imagine such a luxurious life, but it is different now. He, Xu San, has basically achieved financial freedom. Although he may not be able to enjoy the ultra-high-standard services in front of him, but,
As long as he has a villa of the same size and a few nannies, he won't have any problems at all.
"So corrupt!"
"How can she live in such a big place?"
"There are so many maids..."
"What?"
"Mr. Xu San, did you arrange this?"
While exclaiming and sighing, Zhang Chulan soon heard an astonishing fact. Then, he seemed to notice a certain element in it, so he asked energetically:
"Mr. Xu San!"
"Does that mean..."
"If I also join your "Everywhere" express delivery company, can I also enjoy this kind of treatment and live in this kind of place?"
"Does it mean this?"
As he spoke, Zhang Chulan's voice was full of expectation, and then he began to have wild thoughts.
For example, if he could live in a place like this, would any of the maids and sisters be interested in him? After all, he had seen the master's tasks and various games between the master and the maids played by his roommates.
Quite a few, and sometimes he even made suggestions. Now that there is an opportunity to put it into practice, he will definitely not miss it.
"You're thinking shit!"
At this time, before the embarrassed Xu San and the unexpected Xu Si could say anything, Feng Zheng was silent. Feng Baobao, who was just sitting at the side and eating the fruit platter that the maids had just brought over, suddenly looked up.
And sarcastically said to Zhang Chulan with a serious look on his face.
"Ahem!"
"Bao'er is right, in principle..."
"Can't!"
Although he didn't want to hit Zhang Chulan, he didn't want the other party to think too much. After thinking about it for a while, Xu San finally shook his head regretfully, saying that things were indeed not that simple.
"ah?"
"Why, why?"
Unexpectedly, he was rejected. This made Zhang Chulan, who had just begun to have some expectations in his heart, asked in an unhappy and unbalanced manner.
"Ah!"
Unfortunately, Xu San smiled and said nothing, not wanting to explain. He just held up his glasses and gave Zhang Chulan a meaningful look.
“It’s easy!”
"Zhang Chulan, unless you also have 10 billion, otherwise, even if you join our company, you will not be able to live in a place like this."
Fortunately, before Zhang Chulan could ask again, Xu Si on the side smiled and told the truth.
Then, he plopped down on the sofa that was said to be worth at least several hundred thousand, and was so comfortable on the spot that he almost groaned.
"One, ten billion!?"
Hearing what Xu Si said, Zhang Chulan was immediately stunned.
"Are you kidding me?"
Then, he suddenly looked at Xu Si with wide eyes, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
After all, that was 10 billion. Let alone him, that number was an astronomical figure to anyone. Even the personal wealth in this country that reached that level would not exceed three to five hundred, so he was stunned.
After a while, he came back to his senses and retorted angrily:
"With 10 billion, why should I join your crappy courier company?"
"I'm afraid it would be enough to buy a hundred villas like this myself!"
"etc!"
Then, Zhang Chulan, who quickly realized what Xu Si had just said, widened his eyes again and exclaimed, then pointed in shock at the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the villa, pointing at the man who was admiring the garden scenery and talking to a certain gardener.
The little girl pointed and asked:
"you mean……"
"Does she really have 10 billion?!"
Regarding this point, Zhang Chulan did not see it.
After all, on the day they first met, he saw that the other person was eating Bobo Chicken for one yuan a bunch. How could someone with that kind of wealth choose to eat food from a roadside stall?
?
"Well……"
"You have to ask him about this!"
Xu Si pondered for a moment, but finally shook his head and did not say more. He just looked at Xu San next to him and motioned to Zhang Chulan to ask.
"real or fake?"
"Does she really have 10 billion?"
Zhang Chulan was obviously still unwilling to give up, and at the same time, he felt a little sour in his heart.
He has known for a long time that some people are born in Rome, while others are born as cows and horses. But now, after discovering that he is the cow and horse and others are Rome, the huge gap between them has become clear.
Naturally, it made him a little sad and uncomfortable.
"Um……"
"In fact, it's not just 10 billion, but 12 billion!"
Xu San didn't hide anything, he just stared at Zhang Chulan for a while and then nodded and admitted openly.
Originally, Annie had nearly 1.2 billion. Because the gold was of high purity and of great scientific value, the bank directly gave it according to the real-time international gold price, which was higher than he expected. However, after buying
After building the villa and recruiting staff, as well as urgently purchasing a new set of furniture and repairing the garden, there should be so much left.
As for Xu San, he has two or three small goals in his account, and he is expected to get a dozen small goals in the future. Of course, he will definitely not publicize that kind of thing.
"Oh My God!"
"She is actually a little rich woman?"
"Where did she get her money?"
At this time, Zhang Chulan was completely shocked after receiving the confirmation. Apparently, he had never expected that Immortal Anne was so confident and had so much money that he could not even imagine!
Although there are strangers and rivers and lakes in this world, for Zhang Chulan, money is still very important. In addition to improving life, it can also enjoy various things that ordinary people cannot enjoy. And there are many maids who can lift the curse at any time.
What.
In addition, when he thought about the situation where Immortal Anne was not only rich, but also very powerful, taking advantage of all the benefits, he felt like his eyes were turning red as he thought about it.
"okay!"
"No matter how much money Annie has, it's her business. You'd better think about that 'Luotian Dajiao'!"
Regarding the issue of money, Xu San didn't want to discuss too much, so he directly turned the topic to Zhang Chulan.
Because Zhang Chulan was attacked by the Tianxiahui at night last night, and a series of things happened after that. Currently, he has been officially invited by Longhushan Tianshi Mansion, a 'high-level' representative of Tianshi Mansion, to participate in the event in a month's time.
The "Luotian Dajiao" event in Longhu Mountain is the event to select the next successor to the Celestial Master!
"yes!"
"How about it?"
??????55.??????
And Xu Si also hurriedly asked:
"Boy Zhang, are you confident?"
Because he is now fully responsible for Zhang Chulan's affairs, and he still has some plans to implement on Zhang Chulan, so if possible, he not only hopes that Zhang Chulan will participate, but also hopes that Zhang Chulan can be at that grand event
win.
Of course, whether he can win or not depends on Zhang Chulan himself, and at most Xu Si can only provide all kinds of help within his own power and ability.
"I……"
After frowning and thinking for a while, Zhang Chulan finally shook his head, not knowing what to say.
"I have no idea."
After all, he is still confused about the identity of the candidate who was invited for no reason, and he still doesn’t understand anything. Now Xu Si asks him if he is confident in winning. If he dares to say that he is confident, he may not even know it.
Will believe it!
"Are you discussing anything interesting?"
|˙˙)?
Suddenly, just when Zhang Chulan was smiling bitterly and not knowing how to answer, the owner finally came in from the large courtyard outside and curiously asked the four people who were discussing what they were talking about.
"They are discussing Luo Tianda Di."
Feng Baobao spoke again, telling what she knew directly and concisely.
"??"
()
"Luotian Dajiao?"
(﹃)
"Does it taste good? What kind of sauce did you dip it in?"
(o﹃)o
Hearing that several people were discussing food, Annie became excited instantly.
"wrong!"
Seeing Annie's questioning look, seeing Feng Baobao talking nonsense in a serious manner, and seeing Zhang Chulan himself knowing little about it, Xu San had no choice but to dare not neglect, so he had to explain patiently in front of everyone.
Luotian Dajiao'... No, it's a matter of 'Luotian Dajiao'.
"Bao'er, that's pronounced as 鮮jiào, not as zhān..."
"The thing is like this..."
"'Luotian Dajiao', ahem... should be called 'Luotian Dajiao', which is the most solemn ceremony in Taoism in my country and is a large-scale comprehensive sacrificial ceremony."
"Among them, 'Luotian' refers to the highest heaven considered by Taoism, which is located above the 'three realms', that is, the desire realm, the color realm, and the colorless realm."
"Jiao was originally a ceremony to worship gods in ancient my country, and was later adopted by Taoism and is still used today."
"The name of the Luotian Dajiao is intended to express the large number of deities invited to descend, the high taste, the length of time, the large scale, and the wide range of purposes of the ritual. The Taoist priests and priests who participated in the ritual,
The number of dedicated Taoists is huge."
"You can understand that it is grand, grand, and very important?"
Seeing that both Annie and Zhang Chulan were half-informed, Xu San could only conclude with a wry smile.
In addition to what he said, in terms of ritual content, Luotian Dajiao also combines elements of fasting and Jiao.
Fasting is an important method for self-cultivation, helping the world and saving people, and increasing blessings.
Jiao is a sacrifice to the gods in the heaven, but unlike the Confucian sacrifice, Taoism is based on compassion, so it only uses fruits and vegetables to offer sacrifices to the gods of the three realms. There are no three animals or meat.
In Taoist rituals, Zhai and Jiao are inseparable, but they are also easily confused. Later, in the Taoist context, Zhai and Jiao were not distinguished and were used interchangeably.
The extremely prosperous Luotian Jiao requires the erection of nine altars to worship the gods of heaven and earth. The upper three altars are called Putian, where the emperor presides over the worship of 3,600 gods; the middle three altars are called Zhoutian, where the Lords, Lords and nobles worship.
, there are 2,400 deities; the lower three floors are Luotian, where the people worship 1,200 deities. The ritual period lasts for 7,749 days, and the seven dynasty rituals are held in seven times.
The categories include Fu Jiao, Qi'an Jiao, Wang Jiao, Shui Jiao, Fire Jiao, Nine Emperor Rite Dou Jiao and Sanyuan Jiao, etc.
The Luotian Dajiao of Longhu Mountain a month later was on the lower three floors. Although it could not be compared with the "Putian Dajiao" and "Zhoutian Dajiao" of the emperor and the nobles, it was still very grand and mainly focused on rituals.
There are burning incense, opening the altar, inviting water, raising banners, announcing the announcement, raising the filth, inviting the saints, taking the call, following the stars, raising the altar, lowering the flags, sending the saints, etc.
In addition, the chanting and worship are also accompanied by beautiful Taoist music and movements, as well as various formations of Yu steps and step gang fighting.
“The Luotian Dajiao is not only a solemn ceremony, but also has a long ceremony. In the Pudu area, five-color cloth is used to cover the sky. No matter the inner altar or the outer court, it looks extremely solemn and solemn. The manpower and material resources consumed are ten times more than ordinary Jiao ceremonies.
In addition to the above, the ancient universal ceremony required the emperor to preside over the ceremony, so in the feudal society period, people rarely had the ability to build this kind of Jiao, even the Luotian Jiao on the lower three floors."
"Therefore, the Luotian Dajiao held at the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain one month later can be said to be one of the most solemn activities in the folk Taoist fasting rituals in my country."
"After all, there is a high probability that the national-level 'Putian Jiao' and 'Zhoutian Jiao' will not be held."
"In addition to what I mentioned above, the 'Luo Tian Da Jiao' held by the Tianshi Mansion is also an important occasion for the Tianshi Mansion to publicly select candidates for the 66th generation of Tianshi. It is said that the competition format includes melee and knockout rounds."
"In general, it is a battle of wits and courage, as well as an assessment of various cultural connotations and unique rituals of Taoism!"
After telling what he knew, Xu San breathed a sigh of relief and stopped when he saw the original doubts on the faces of Zhang Chulan and a certain troubled little girl gradually turning into confusion. Then, regardless of Feng Baobao's murderous eyes,
She directly picked up a piece of unicorn melon from the fruit plate in front of her and started to nibble on it.
After all, what he just said was a mouthful. After the lecture, he felt his mouth was dry. What's wrong with eating only a piece of fruit now? Is he, Baby Feng, so stingy?
"..."
After listening, Zhang Chulan couldn't help folding his arms and frowning in thought, and was not in a hurry to express his opinion.
"Sounds like fun?"
(▽)
"Then go and participate, and others will come too when the time comes!"
*.(ˊ▽ˋ*)*.
Although Annie still didn't quite understand what she heard, she only knew that it seemed to be fun, so she decided that she would join in the fun when the time came.
"how?"
"Zhang Chulan, are you confident?"
Seeing a certain troubled little girl eager to give in, and seeing Feng Baobao glaring at Xu San, Xu Si asked Zhang Chulan again.
"No!"
"but……"
"If you let me live in the villa, and the treatment is the same as here, including food, drink and maids, I think I would risk my life and try my best to achieve a good result?"
It is impossible to have confidence. He has never been exposed to that kind of thing, knows nothing about the rules, and his understanding of Taoism is very limited. He is limited to some oral instructions from his dead grandfather, but now he is inexplicable
Being nominated, he has great confidence!
However, Zhang Chulan is not stupid!
He vaguely noticed that Xu San and Xu Si seemed to be intentionally guiding him to attend Lao Shizi's Luo Tianda Dipping Festival?
And since they had something to ask for, he felt that he could use it to negotiate terms with them and ask them to accommodate him on certain things, such as allowing him to enjoy the villa, food, maids and other services like Anne.
Then even if he dies in the conference, he will be able to rest in peace?
"puff--!"
Seeing that Zhang Chulan actually brought the topic back and made such unrealistic demands, Xu San almost spit out the sip of drink he just took into his mouth.
"Ahem!"
"Zhang Chulan, I think we should talk about other things?"
So, he hurriedly wiped his chest, shook his head and prepared to change the subject.
"That `s a deal!"
"I'll take care of the villa maid!"
"And you, Zhang Chulan, promise to go all out and win the Luotian Dajiao in one month's time!"
However, unlike Xu San, when he heard what Zhang Chulan said, he immediately slapped his thigh and got off the sofa, and then decided the matter on the spot.
"you sure?"
"Villa, maid, plenty of food and drink?"
"Didn't you lie to me?"
Zhang Chulan looked at Xu Si, who was swearing with some disbelief, and soon cheered excitedly after receiving the other party's affirmative reply.
"Mr. Xu Si!"
"As the saying goes, a scholar dies for his confidant, so just take it easy!"
"I, Zhang Chulan, will definitely fight tooth and nail to win first place!"
As for the rewards for the first place, Zhang Chulan didn't care that much. Anyway, he only said that he would fight for it with all his life, but he didn't care whether he succeeded or not.
After all, Zhang Chulan is not that kind of vulgar person. Of course he will not care about the vulgar ranking and the inexplicable position of Heavenly Master. In comparison, the villa, delicious food, maids, etc.
It is much more elegant, and that is what he, as a contemporary young man, should strive for and fight for.
Especially when he looked at the Fairy Anne's house and those maids who were dancing and dancing, he was startled and felt the emotion and pride of "This is what a real man should do" more than once.
"??"
Seeing Xu Si agreeing so easily, Xu San immediately glared at him with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
Because he knows Xu Si’s authority level better than anyone else. Although the other party’s level is higher than Xu San’s, even if Zhang Chulan is only allowed to enjoy Anne’s luxurious life for a month, even a villa can be rented.
Yes, but none of the personnel and other expenses can be saved. The total cost is at least nearly 100 million. Such an exaggerated amount of funds is absolutely impossible to be approved by the superiors!
However, even though he knew that was the truth, seeing Zhang Chulan's excited face and high morale and fighting spirit, he hesitated for a moment, and ultimately did not choose to expose and attack the opponent face to face.
