澎湖傳統聚落宮廟之活動興盛，隸屬宮廟之儀式人員為法師團體，法師成員來自同聚落裏的住民。每隔數年或因應特定事件，宮廟即招收聚落裏的男童作為新成員，「小法出館」即是這批年幼成員，在經過一段日程之基礎訓練後，特地擇日所舉行的成果展現，出館當日執行的儀式包括：請壇、放營、敕符、燒生鉈、操營、結界、請婆、造橋與犒軍等。法師派別在澎湖主要有普唵派與呂山派，雖然目前以普唵派法師居多，但呂山派法師曾傳布到臺灣鹿港並擴及其他地區，乃臺灣呂山派法師源頭之一，故自有其重要性，此外，瞭解呂山派儀式音樂，將裨助對澎湖法教儀式音樂有更完整的認識。本文即以呂山派小法於出館日執行之諸多儀式作為研究對象，藉由觀察小法出館的內容，窺探一名小法需要具備的基本儀式與音樂能力，同時初探呂山派音樂之梗概，因為安排於小法出館裏的諸多儀式，其中多項也正是日後宮廟舉行常年行事，或是慶賀宮廟神誕、入火等大典裏的儀式項目。文中觀察個案為馬公市山水北極殿，實地調查日為2006 年10 月6 日，出館之小法乃該宮廟第十五屆法師成員。由於呂山派儀式音樂除了法師固有之音樂傳統，若干儀式尚加入澎湖當地傳統音樂，因此文末將從信仰推動儀式、儀式匯集並傳承法術知識與傳統音樂的觀點，討論澎湖宮廟法教儀式在傳統藝術文化資產裏的定位。

The priests of village temples are Hua-Su（法師）in Penghu. They recruit the young boys to join the priest group every several years. These boys, who are called “Siau-Hua” （小法）, have to learn basic magic skills, such as the operation of magic tools, the practice of certain action, and the chanting of mediumistic text. “Chut-Kuan” （出館）is a series of rituals , including Chang-Tuang（請壇）, Pang-Iang（放營）, Ti-Hu（敕符）,Chau- Iang（操營）, Keh- Kai（結界）, Cho-Kio （造橋）, and Kho–Kun（犒軍）,…etc. Siau-Hua have to perform these rituals to the public within a day-time. Through the presentation of these rituals, they show what they have learned during the primary stage. The sects of priests in Penghu are Po-An（普唵） and Lu-Shan （呂山）. Based on the example of the local temple of village Shan-Sui （山水）, this paper will focus on the sect of Lu-Shan to describe the ritual and music of “Chut-Kuan”, and to scrutinize the basic music and ritual ability of Siau-Hua. Besides the repertory of Hua-Su’s chants, the system of traditional music, such as the tunes of Nanguan, is included in the ritual music; consequently, I’ll discuss the effect and importance of temple rituals to preserve the traditional music and culture.
