Chapter three hundred and seventieth first sign(1/2)
Inside and outside the hall where Emperor Zhenwu is worshipped, there is a great incense.
An elderly Taoist with a solemn face quickly crossed the threshold. Seeing the tall back in white, the old man calmed down, slowed down, and stood side by side.
The man in white, who was more than an inch taller than an ordinary man in Beiliang, was actually a young woman with a faint face. Her face was probably the so-called solemn appearance of treasure, just like a Bodhisattva coming to the world.
The elderly Taoist was here to take over the work of ringing the chime. Although he was the highest in Wudang Mountain and was a great master who had been in charge of the precepts of a mountain for decades, he still did everything himself. When he was just approaching the hall, he noticed her strange aura. The old Taoist priest knew it clearly. To be precise, she was the first to discover herself, so she deliberately revealed clues.
The old Taoist priest followed her sight and saw a devout believer kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times on the cushion. Although he was in his seventies with extremely weak bones, his bowing etiquette was meticulous.
The old Taoist priest is most familiar with this. When he was young, he was taken up the mountain to practice by his master Huang Manshan and became brothers with Wang Chonglou and Song Zhiming. He is nearly a hundred years old this year, so the old man has been burning incense for nearly eighty years now.
The old man sighed: "The world seeks immortality from a long time to live, to relieve worries, and to be free from suffering."
The tall woman in white said calmly: "Then why did you Wudang Mountain cut off the thoughts of practitioners all over the world?"
The old man is Chen Yao, the real person in charge of Wudang, the senior brother of Hong Xixiang, and the current junior master of Li Yufu. The old man smiled and said: "Master Dan Tai, I only know the rules and regulations on this mountain, and what should be done and what should not be done. It is clear, but if I ask about my skills of immortality or bigger questions, I will really ask about Dao Yuyu. If you climbed the mountain earlier, my master, senior brother, and junior brother, all three of them can answer, or even if it is more than ten days earlier, the head teacher can answer."
Dan Tai calmly withdrew his gaze and looked up at the majestic statue of the Emperor Zhenwu, high above and overlooking the world, "Is it difficult to figure it out? Or don't want to figure it out? Why did the Spring and Autumn Period fall, and why did the Central Plains sink? It was because a small group of wealthy valves blocked the entire world's ascent.
It is obvious that if Emperor Liyang today rejected the white-clothed cold-clad tribe and blindly promoted the children of the aristocratic tribes to fill the temple, the Zhao family would not be able to last long. The flowing water does not rot and the door hinges do not rot, so the truth is so simple."
The old real man smiled and nodded, "Master Dan Tai said it well."
Tan Taiping Jing asked again: "Is Wudang Mountain so ambitious that it is so great that it is to make the entire world a separatist vassal state?"
The old real man asked back: "In the eyes of Sect Master Dan Tai, are ordinary people on earth lower than those of the immortals in the sky?"
Dan Tai stretched out his finger calmly and pointed at the statue, "Isn't it? Then why can this statue sit high and look down, making people willingly bow their heads and kowtow and enjoy the thousand-year-old incense?"
The old real man was not annoyed by the disrespectful behavior of the leader of the Qi-training Master in the past, and shook his head and said, "It's still the words I said before, that people who have been seeking gods forever are asking for something, and I dare to make an inappropriate example. This is like the officialdom or the market at the foot of the mountain. If you beg for mercy with others, you always have to bring some meeting gifts. If you talk to others, you always have a lower voice. This is the matter, and the reason is the reason, but this does not mean that the person who is asked can act freely."
The old real man who was not originally talkative actually opened up the conversation, and his words were a little heavier. "I heard that the immortals in the sky are good at fishing for the energy, life span of a human, and the fortune of a country are all under control. If the way of heaven is only ruthless, so it is not bad to die early because of evil and not to live long because of goodness, but just put himself in his shoes and think that even his own marriage, life span, blessings, etc. are controlled by others, how sad? Master Dao once told us six of our fellow brothers that heaven is vigorous, and gentlemen are willing to strive for their own difficulties, and they do not want heaven to live well and enjoy their success, and they do not want everything to be rigid. Although we Taoist priests are people outside the mountain, we must not forget that they are still people in the world, living in the world and dying in the world."
From Lu Zu to Huang Manshan, to Wang Chonglou of Chen Yao's generation, Song Zhiming, Yu Xingrui, Wang Xiaoping, and Hong Xixiang.
No one will live forever.
Some of them cannot and do not want to, such as Song Zhiming and Chen Yao.
Some are okay but unwilling, such as Wang Chonglou and Yu Xingrui.
Some of them are disdainful, such as Hong Xixiang and Wang Xiaoping.
Chen Yao suddenly laughed and turned his head to look at the land god who was said to have entered the realm of heaven and man without any fear. "How many people can ascend in a hundred years on earth? Among the few people, who has never been a banished immortal descended to earth? Why, who is the lobbyist for whom Master Dantai wants to be a lobbyist? I only know that the 'person' who made the Sect Master Dantai act like this will definitely not be this Zhenwu Emperor."
Dan Tai frowned calmly.
She smiled strangely and asked, "Did you ever think about the fact that King Xu Fengnian of Beiliang and your head Li Yufu were banished immortals? Why did they want to be ruthless in this life?!"
Chen Yao looked natural and smiled, "I just care about the precepts of Wudang, what do you do?"
Dan Tai Pingjing's face was cold, "What a Wudang Mountain! It's worthy of being the temple of Lu Zu!"
Chen Yao still smiled and said, "Excessive."
Dan Tai turned around and looked at him with white eyes.
Yu Xingrui stood outside the threshold of the hall.
But she looked directly at the small lotus peak outside the Big Lotus Peak.
The next moment, her figure dissipated.
Yu Xingrui, who rushed over, felt relieved. Chen Yao slowly walked towards this junior brother. The old real man, who is known for his seriousness, quipped with silence: "Junior Brother Yu, hurry up and wipe your sweat."
Yu Xingrui asked worriedly: "Just let her go?"
Chen Yao said openly: "Actually, her willingness to show up at this time means that she has no intention of killing for the time being. Think about it, the prince is on the mountain, the prince is there, and Li be careful, and there are so many great masters present. Who dares to act here? After all, she is not the King Xianzhi of Wudicheng."
Yu Xingrui nodded and said, "That's right."
Chen Yao suddenly asked, "Have you really thought about it?"
Yu Xingrui said in a deep voice: "It's different from you. I, Yu Xingrui, have been native to Liangzhou for generations."
Chen Yao patted Yu Xingrui on the shoulder inappropriate manner, "Then don't worry. There are jade axes, Han Gui, and... Yu Fu, all of them are very good."
Yu Xingrui said regretfully: "It's a pity that I can't wait for the day when my junior brother gets enlightened."
Chen Yao nodded, "Senior brother is almost the same."
"Senior brother, can you tell you something?"
"you say."
"How old is the younger brother now? He is just a sleepy age. How can you be like an elder who runs to knock on the door before dawn every day?"
"Junior brother, are you the Taoist priest in the mountains or are you me?"
“…”
"Is there anything else?"
"Yes, my junior brother is occasionally greedy and secretly buy some candied haws and other food when he is unwritten. Brother, can you stop being so keen and golden every time? Such a big kid, I have been punished by copying scriptures several times when I look at it, and the jade axe is waiting quietly outside the house again and again."
"Oh. Senior brother almost forgot that the younger brother is now your disciple's disciple's name, and you three are in love with each other."
"Senior brother's words are a bit sour, right? Haha, there's no way, I'll accept a good apprentice."
"Junior brother, shouldn't you be on duty in the Jinglou today? Why do you have time to chat with your senior brother here? Please copy "Tao Taoist Shu" tonight."
"Senior Brother! Then you should be ringing the bell at this time!"
"Haha, there's no way, senior brother is in charge of the Wudang Mountain precepts."
“…”
———
Before the stall was released, Su Su and the other two had already left, and Wei Miao was still far away. The charming Miao girl, who had been married, sat on the bench at the table with enthusiasm, looked at the young vassal king who had already begun to close the stall, and said in a bad Central Plains official accent: "Brother Xiao Jun, are you also freeing the sign for your sister?"
Xu Fengnian couldn't help laughing and said, "This sister, you have been married for many years, what else can you ask for?"
She said carelessly: "What a way? My man is not afraid of heaven or earth, just afraid that I don't want him. My sister has no intention, just want to see if she lost her marriage back then."
Wei Miao, who is ordinary and short, grinned. As a man and one of the few martial arts masters in the world today, he has a very good temper.
Xu Fengnian looked at the couple and firmly said: "No need to see, it must be a good sign!"
Miao girl hesitated and finally gave up.
When Wei Miao left, he turned his head and looked at Xu Fengnian deeply.
Xu Fengnian naturally would not move the table and stools away, and he didn't plan to ask for the tag. Of course, even a small mountain-like copper coins can be reduced!
This is the life-saving money he has made up for.
At this moment, Xu Fengnian was slightly stunned.
A young woman with a wooden hairpin and cloth skirt walked slowly. Even though she was shabby and even without martial arts, her unique aura seemed to be contaminated with the arrogance of the Tian family, she could see it at a glance.
She held a cloth bag in her arms, filled with golden persimmons she had just picked from the tree.
Xu Fengnian had a headache.
She was in Wudang Mountain, and Gu Jiantang had just climbed the mountain. In fact, it was not appropriate for anyone to see anyone.
One is the princess who died of illness in the palace in the history books of the imperial court, and the other is the Dazhuguo, who is loyal to the Zhaoshi in Liyang.
It was Princess Sui Zhu Zhao Fengya who sat on the bench that had already been closed and sat opposite him.
Xu Fengnian sat back on her original position and said helplessly: "You are here too."
She smiled indifferently and said, "See if I can shake out that head sign."
Xu Fengnian was about to speak, but she had already continued: "Where is hiding, I haven't taken it out yet, otherwise how could I shake it out?"
Xu Fengnian shook her sleeves without any worries and a bamboo stick fell out.
She sneered: "If you really know how to do business, even if you can't become the King of Beiliang in the future, you will be as rich as you hide from the Central Plains."
Xu Fengnian laughed twice, "Do you mean you are a crow's mouth, or do you mean you are auspicious?"
She said with a cold face: "Sign up!"
Being domineering instructors is not inferior to those of the past.
Xu Fengnian recognized money but not people, "Do you have a hundred documents?"
She picked up a ripe persimmon from the cloth bag and placed it on the table.
Xu Fengnian widened his eyes.
It’s not because of the arrogance of His Royal Highness Liyang in the past.
It is the appearance of another princess behind Zhao Fengya.
It was just His Royal Highness of the Princess of the Great Chu in the past.
Zhao Fengya turned her head and took a look, "Yeah, the female sword fairy who likes to fly around and win over the mighty one is here."
Jiang Ni said angrily: "You want to care?"
For some reason, Jiang Ni was still not confident about the culprit who once destroyed her vegetable garden, even though she had been the Emperor of Western Chu and now a female sword fairy, and she was still not confident about Zhao Fengya, who should have been in trouble, who was worse than a chicken.
