Liuren Magic Sanctuary
In Liuren Fajiao, Bing Ma (兵馬 - Soldiers and Horses) are the authorized spiritual entities that staff the Altar's office. They are not independent spirits, but part of the lineage's protective bureaucracy. They respond to the command of the Liuren Xianshi and are directed by initiated practitioners to execute specific ritual tasks.
A disciple does not "Own" the spirit soldiers. Authority is delegated through the lineage hierarchy:
Critical Principle: The Bing Ma respond to your **Ritual Rank** and the **Merit** of your heart. Unauthorized or arrogant commands are ignored by the office.
Deploying Bing Ma requires a formal Petition (Biao Wen) or Command (Fa Bing) depending on the urgency of the case.
| Deployment Type | Ritual Mechanism | Common Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Protection (Hu Shen) | Assigning a guard pulse to a person. | Client safety during legal or spiritual conflict. |
| Clearing (Jing Zhai) | Sweeping a location of non-lineage entities. | Restoring peace to a haunted or disturbed property. |
| Recovery (Zhao Hun) | Assisting in the return of soul fragments. | Stabilization after severe shock or trauma. |
Commanding Bing Ma is the most serious responsibility of the Sanshanjiao practitioner. It is an act of **Spiritual Logistics** that requires a clear mind and a sincere heart. By treating the troops with respect and always honoring your lineage vows (Huan Yuan), you ensure that your ritual office remains active and protected.
