DAY 197 The Secret of the Taixuan Sect

Qin Dashu sat on the threshold and waved to him, "Come on, sit on the stool and listen to me."

Then, he sighed, and a bright light flashed across his old eyes, saying, "I haven't mentioned the Taixuan Sect for many years. The last time I talked about this to someone was on Maoshan..."

Gu Chenyi and Chu Jingyan both moved a small stool and sat in the patio to listen to his story.

"... Actually, this yard is not mine, it was left to me by my master, Daoren Liang. I am not from Xinxing Town. When I was ten years old, I fled to Pingpu County and almost starved to death. The master gave me a pancake, so I followed him to Xinxing Town. The master said that this yard had existed more than a thousand years ago. It collapsed several times and was rebuilt several times. It was all original demolition and construction. In the past, this Dushan was from our Taixuan School."

"My master said that this yard is related to the comeback of the Taixuan Sect, and there is a secret hidden. Therefore, the descendants of the Taixuan Sect must keep the yard no matter what. I heard that this sentence was left to future generations before the ancestor ascended."

Chu Jingyan was stunned when she heard this. When Qin Dashu paused for a moment, she hurriedly interrupted: "Master, have you ever found the secret of this yard? Have you found it?"

"I have searched, why don't I look for it? Not only have I been searching for it, but my master and my master have searched countless times. I have knocked on every wall and checked it, but I have never found anything. I saw that well? I have searched it several times under the well, and dug three feet into the courtyard."

Chu Jingyan's gossip heart was burning and asked, "Master, who are the powerful people in the history of the Taixuan Sect?"

"The most powerful one is naturally the ancestor, who has attained enlightenment and ascended to become an immortal. I heard from the master that immortals are immortal. Maybe one day the ancestor remembers the younger generation. Come back and take a look. After the ancestor, Master Lu and Master Long have both become national masters. They are amazing."

Chu Jingyan stuck out her tongue and said weakly: "Master, do you know magic?"

"I haven't found the secret of the yard yet? When I find it, I will have any spells."

"What if I can't find it?"

"So Master is looking for successors! Look at Xiao Yi, the Dao Bone Deep Seed, you will definitely find a secret."

"Ah?" Chu Jingyan opened her eyes wide, Damn it! Is this a trap? I want to marry Xiaoyi in the future. Will I be able to stay in this house with Xiaoyi and I will not be able to make it in the future, just like Qin Dashu, who opens a library to teach apprentices?

Unexpectedly, Gu Chenyi nodded seriously and said, "Master, after hearing what you said, I want to join Taixuan Sect. Master, the ancestor's message is just to inherit this house. If the original is demolished and built, the old house is renovated, or expanded, it should be fine, right?"

Qin Dashu was overjoyed and said, "Of course there is no problem! This is a move by Changsheng, my Taixuan School. The ancestor will only be happy when he knows it!"

Gu Chenyi asked again: "Master, are you the only one left in our Taixuan Sect? How could this happen to the sect that has been passed down for thousands of years?"

Qin Dashu said shyly: "When the Taixuan School was in its prime, there were tens of thousands of disciples. The mountain gate was not here, but in Taihang Mountain. Our branch was the direct descendant of the ancestor. Since the Tang Dynasty moved here, it has been sticking to the vicinity of Dushan. In the past, Dushan was the gate of our branch. However, since the Republic of China, the number of our branch has dropped sharply. In my master's generation, there were only three people left. When I arrived at my place, I was alone."

Chu Jingyan asked carefully: "Master, have you taken in many disciples? Why are you alone?"

Qin Dashu waved his hand and said, "What we teach these people is my miscellaneous learning. In my early years, Master, I did go to Shaoshi Mountain. My master and the abbot of Shaolin Temple had several encounters. Do you know where the Japanese attacked the Demon City? It was from this. My master and I were forced to flee to Shaolin Temple for refuge and stayed for a while. In order to avoid people, the abbot said that I was a layman in Shaolin Temple and asked me to learn Shaolin martial arts at will."

Chu Jingyan had a hundred questions in her mind and said, "So that's the case. But, Master, why did you fall in love with Xiaoyi? If Xiaoyi didn't come today, would you not accept disciples for the rest of your life? Wouldn't that be cut off the incense?"

"Haha, Taoism emphasizes fortune, Buddhism emphasizes fate. For me, this is fortune. Jingyan, you are not a Taoist disciple, and you don't understand the mystery. Master, when I first saw Xiaoyi, I felt that the great fortune of Taixuan School has come! Xiaoyi was born with a Taoist bone and is a rare talent in a century. This must be the ancestor who showed his spirit and led Xiaoyi here."

Chu Jingyan rolled her eyes and said to herself, "What? Is it good that I brought him?"

Gu Chenyi asked: "Master, what are the rules of the Taixuan School? For example, can you marry and have children?"

Chu Jingyan was shocked, Damn it! Why didn’t I expect this problem? I listen carefully.

"Except for the Quanzhen Sect, the Taoist sect has many bad rules, and other major sects can marry and have children. Our Taixuan Sect is naturally no exception." Looking at Gu Chenyi, then looking at Chu Jingyan, smiling without saying a word.

Chu Jingyan thought to herself, why are you not getting married? Will you be fooling Xiaoyi into making fun of him and becoming a disciple?

While he was struggling, he heard Gu Chenyi say, "Since that's the case, I am willing to worship Taixuan Sect. Master is here, please accept a prayer from my disciple."

Qin Dashu raised his head and laughed. It was really the ancestor who showed his spirit! He finally fooled an apprentice! Now the Taixuan School is in full bloom, and it can be considered that he has made great merits for the Taixuan School!

"Good disciple, you can worship the ancestor again and you will be officially started."

Gu Chenyi bowed respectfully to the portrait.

I don’t know whose paintings this portrait actually contain a wonderful Taoist technique. Gu Chenyi looked at it with his spiritual eyes. The ancestor seemed to be flesh and blood, and it was definitely extraordinary.

Qin Dashu stood in front of the portrait of the ancestor and said happily: "People often use the word 'know' to describe their understanding of things. Lao Tzu said that Tao can be told, and it is extraordinary. 'Tao' is the general term for all things in the world, referring to the essence, rules, and rules of the world. 'know' means understanding these rules and essences, and 'not knowing' means not understanding these rules and essences. It can be seen that Taoist Tao actually grows in everyone's heart."

"When people encounter something they don't understand, they must 'ask for the Tao'. They ask about the essence and laws of all things in the world; those who understand the principles here can 'speak' and explain the essence and laws of all things in the world. Our Taixuan School's Tao and the Shangqing School have different paths. They all understand the essence and laws of the world, and then attain the Tao and ascend to the Tao."

Chu Jingyan was solemnly respectful. It turned out that the common words in the words in people's mouths were related to Tao. I knew, said, said, asked, asked... I hurriedly said, "Master, you can! You know so much? I feel tall and proud when I hear it."

"Now, it is a good fortune for Xiaoyi when he knows that Master looks at him at first sight?"

Chu Jingyan: “…”

After worshiping the ancestor, Gu Chenyi looked around, and finally pretended to walk to the edge of the ancient well and looked down. When his face reached the mouth of the well, he felt a stream of spiritual energy drilling into his body along his pores. Although it was thin, it made him feel his dantian filled after a moment.

This faint spiritual energy seemed to be purer than the spiritual energy absorbed in the orchid grass. Looking inward, he saw that the spiritual power in the dantian was extremely active, and seemed to be welcoming this new spiritual energy.

"Master. In this case, you should apply to the town to rebuild and expand this old house?"

Chu Jingyan reminded: "There are many regulations on renovating the old house. The master has no children. According to reason, the house land that can be granted at most two rooms is not expanded."

"Well, then I'll find a way. Our homestead should not occupy the plowing fields, so it should be relatively loose."

Qin Dashu nodded repeatedly and said, "It's reasonable!"

"Master, after the homestead was approved, I asked someone to design the drawings and remake the old house. However, the room in the middle is my use."

"No problem. In fact, Master can't enjoy a few years of blessings. Sooner or later, it's the two of you."

Chu Jingyan was filled with joy after hearing this.

Gu Chenyi asked: "Master, why is this well a dry well?"

"I don't understand the truth from the master's hands. Logically speaking, here is near the sea and there is a lot of water underground. If you dig a few dozen centimeters, you will accumulate water. Maybe it's because you are close to Dushan?"

"Master, can I climb down and take a look? I'm very curious."

"No problem, you and Jingyan are here to study. I'll go out to see a few kids. The time is about the same, so I can let them go home." The disciples Qin Dashu accepted agreed to practice martial arts for two hours a day.

"Master, go, let's take a look around here."

Qin Dashu knew that they were curious after listening to his story. Haha, let’s study it. I have been studying it for most of my life and have not made a name for it. Which one of my masters, my master, has not been exhausted and has not made a name for it?

Back then, he joined the master and learned about these things from his master, he also looked around with interest. For example, this ancient well was drilled in and out of no less than a hundred times, and all the soil at the bottom of the well was dug out, but he did not find any secrets, spiritual weapons and other treasures.

The greater the interest, the more sincere the beginning.

Qin Dashu suddenly thought of a question: Could this sentence left by the ancestor be a scam? So that disciples and disciples can maintain hope? So that the Taixuan Sect can be passed on?

It’s not that there is no such possibility!

On this side, Gu Chenyi drilled into the ancient well, and the more he got below, the more spiritual energy he became. He used his cultivation, spread his eyes to look at the bottom of the well, and found that this spiritual energy came from the depths of the ground. It was not like the treasures of heaven and earth like sharp orchids. In this case, a spiritual weapon from the ancestor may be buried deep in the bottom of the well, or a small spiritual vein may be buried deep in the bottom of the well.

The ancestor moved his direct lineage here, used Dushan as the gate, and built this house again, which should have been to discover the secret here. However, there were no outstanding people in the descendants, and they never discovered the spiritual energy here, so that the Taixuan School lineage became increasingly declining.

When he climbed up from the bottom of the well, Qin Dashu had already returned and asked with a smile: "Xiao Yi, what did you find?"

"have!"

Qin Dashu was stunned and asked, "What did you find?"

"I found that the soil at the bottom of the well was relatively fresh."

"Haha!" Qin Dashu laughed and said, "I have dug out all the original soil, and I have screened it little by little, but I have not found any treasures hidden in the soil."

Gu Chenyi: "..."
