Chapter 269 French Seal

"That's right, my surname is Fang Yi, and I am from the Shangqing Palace Taoist Temple in Chaotian Palace, Fangshan, Jinling..."

Fang Yi bowed his head and bowed, reporting his name, origin and Taoist temple. Although he didn't know much about the society's situation, he had been a Taoist priest for more than ten years and was very clear about Taoist affairs.

"Yeah? Are you really a Taoist person?"

Hearing Fang Yi's words, the middle-aged Taoist priest was stunned for a moment. There were so many Taoist temples in the world. Although he had never heard of Shangqing Palace in Fangshan, Jinling, he felt very tall and elegant when he heard the name, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I don't know what you are here for fellow Taoist?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest replied with a greeting to Fang Yi and said, "If you are here to place an order, please report your seniority in the Dharma school and the name of your master, and then recite a passage of Tao Te Ching. Our management here is very strict, and I hope you can forgive me..."

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at Fang Yi's clothes and felt that he was just wearing average clothes, so he subconsciously thought that Fang Yi probably wanted to have a free stay. Some Taoist priests also like to travel. Fang Yi was not the first Taoist priest who came to the capital to think about staying for free for dinner.

Therefore, compared with the rules of placing orders for remote Taoist temples in deep mountains and rivers, the Taoist Association is undoubtedly much stricter. Otherwise, if you just say that you are a Taoist priest and spend ten days and half a month here, then Baiyun Temple would probably have been declared bankrupt long ago.

"But...but I'm not here to place an order..." Fang Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Didn't he say it clearly just now? He was here to find someone.

"Okay, fellow Taoist, you are not the only one who comes to hold the order, so don't be embarrassed..." The middle-aged Taoist priest was a little impatient. He was responsible for reception work at the door all year round. He spoke to look for people like Fang Yi, but in fact, he didn't know how many Taoist people who held the order had seen them.

"Master Taoist, I'm really here to find someone. It was Master Zhenglin from the Taoist Association who asked me to come..."

Hearing the middle-aged Taoist priest's words, Fang Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had heard that it was difficult to enter the capital yamen, but he never expected that such a monk would become so bureaucratic.

"Fellow Taoist, but we really don't have Taoist Master Zhenglin here..." The middle-aged Taoist priest shook his head. If it weren't for Fang Yi's Taoist sect, he would have told people to drive them away.

"By the way, I have a number here. Taoist priest, see if it's from you..." Fang Yi took out the envelope given to him by the teacher, which contained a landline number from the capital. However, when Fang Yi came to call this number before, no one answered the answer.

"Hmm? Let's take a look..." The middle-aged Taoist priest took the envelope, glanced at the number on it, his face changed suddenly, and he asked, "Fellow Taoist, is this number the person you are looking for?"

"I don't know, but someone just informed me to go to the capital to call this number and report the name of Taoist Zhenglin. I didn't get through it just now..."

Fang Yi said honestly. To be honest, he felt a little guilty when he came here because his training qualifications from the Taoist Association were all fake in Fang Yi's opinion, and those things could not stand the verification at all.

"When did you get the call?" asked the middle-aged Taoist priest.

"It's past seven o'clock..." Fang Yi understood a little. Maybe he called too early and others hadn't started working yet, but he thought that the place was not far away, so he came here directly.

"You wait..."

The middle-aged Taoist priest picked up the phone on the table and dialed it according to Fang Yi's number. Fang Yi didn't know whose number was, but the middle-aged Taoist priest knew very well that this was clearly the phone number of the office of the current Baiyunguan host Zhongxin Abbot.

Although Abbot Zhongxin is only the vice president of the Taoist Association, within Taoism, Abbot Zhongxin is more respected than the president of the association. He holds the position of president of Taoist associations in four provinces and has the status of hosting six Taoist temples. He is now over 90 years old. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first Taoist person.

So when you see this number, the middle-aged Taoist priest never dared to neglect Fang Yi anymore. You should know that although the abbot of Zhongxin is not in the office, his office number is not something that ordinary people can know.

"Well, understand, okay, I'll invite someone over immediately..." After calling, the middle-aged Taoist priest told the phone about the incident, nodded repeatedly and hung up the phone.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, please come inside, Abbot of the All-Sincere is waiting for you in the office..."

After making this call, the middle-aged Taoist priest was no longer polite to Fang Yi, but seemed a little respectful, because he heard on the phone that the disciples of the trusted abbot asked him to meet Fang Yi in person after asking him for instructions.

The Abbot of Zhongxin is a Xuanren disciple of the 23rd generation of Quanzhen Long Sect. His age and generation are extremely high in Taoism. In recent years, due to his age, he has rarely appeared. Even the Taoist priests of Baiyun Temple are difficult to see their abbot. It is only in some major Taoist ceremonies that the Abbot of Zhongxin appear occasionally.

Especially in the past two years, the abbots of Taoist temples from all over the country came to the capital, and most of them were received by the disciples of the trusted abbots. Therefore, middle-aged Taoist priests would never have thought that a young man like Fang Yi could be received by the abbot.

"Abbot of Zhongxin? I'm looking for Taoist Zhenglin..." Fang Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this. It seemed that the name the teacher said to him was not Zhongxin, right?

"Then I don't know..." The middle-aged Taoist priest shook his head, walked quickly in front and led the way. After passing through several buildings, he came to a row of bungalows.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, this is here..." He brought Fang Yi to the door of the abbot's office. When the middle-aged Taoist priest pushed the door and invited Fang Yi in, he looked inside, but was a little disappointed because the abbot was not inside at this moment.

"Are you fellow Taoist Fang?" An old Taoist priest in his sixties came out of the abbot's room, and waved his hand to signal that the middle-aged Taoist priest could go back.

"I am Fang Yi, how dare you ask if Taoist priest is Taoist Zhenglin?"

Fang Yi made a joke, but he spoke a little bit unnatural. This is because he had been with the old Taoist priest for more than ten years and rarely practiced Taoist etiquette, especially the life in the past few months after going down the mountain, which made Fang Yi almost forget that he had the identity of a Taoist priest.

"I am not Master Zhenglin. His dragon is not seen at the end. I have seen it less than twice a year..." The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "It's my master who wants to see you, and he will come soon..."

"Abbot of all faiths?"

When Fang Yi heard the other party's words, he became more and more confused. He didn't know why the Taoist Master Zhenglin wanted to see him before, but after he arrived, he found that Taoist Master Zhenglin was not here, but wanted to see some trusted abbot.

"Yes, Master, he has come..." The old Taoist priest said and walked out of the door. With another Taoist priest, he helped an old Taoist priest in a green Taoist robe.

"You are the trusted abbot..." Seeing this old Taoist priest, Fang Yi also stood up, his eyes kept looking at the other party, and his brows frowned slightly.

Fang Yi could feel that the old man in front of him was already in his twilight years, and his qi and blood were declining very much, but Fang Yi had a very strange feeling, that is, the old Taoist priest was filled with a very special energy, and it was this energy that maintained the old Taoist priest's life.

"Fang Yi, fellow Taoist Fang, please sit down..."

Although he needed someone to support him when walking, the trusted abbot was very clear, especially those eyes full of wisdom. After scanning Fang Yi for a while, Fang Yi felt like he was seen through by the other party.

"I wonder if the trusted abbot asked me to come, what should I do to give me advice?" Fang Yi was not very comfortable in front of this old Taoist priest. After sitting on the sofa, he immediately told him his purpose.

"It was not what I asked you to come, it was Zhenren Zheng who asked you to come..." Zhongxin shook his head and waved to the Taoist priest who was holding him in behind him, saying, "Actually nothing is wrong. Taoist priest Zhenglin entrusts me to give you something..."

"Hmm? What?" Fang Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Could it be that Master Zhenglin is the master's friend?

"It's this..." The abbot of the faithful put a wooden box wrapped in yellow satin in front of Fang Yi.

"Falinal Seal?"

When Fang Yi untied the satin and opened the wooden box, and saw what was inside, his eyes couldn't help but squint. In the middle of the wooden box, there was a golden seal all over the body.

"I wonder why Master Zhenglin gave me such a method to print?"

Fang Yi raised his head and looked at the abbot of all faithful people. You should know that Taoist seals are very important Dharma objects in Taoism. They are used in Taoist talismans, fasting and rituals, protecting the body and promoting the spirit, refining and saving people, eliminating disasters and exorcising evil spirits and other rituals and religious activities. They have always been recognized by Taoist people.

Although Fang Yi did not pick up this method and look carefully, based on visual inspection, Fang Yi could also see that this method should be made of pure gold. Without getting started, Fang Yi could detect the huge energy contained in the Dharma Seal. This is obviously a magic weapon that has experienced the cycle of time.
