Chapter 14 Taoist Companions(1/2)
Li Fan was sitting next to the desk, with a food cauldron in front of him. Inside the cauldron was a stock that had been simmered over a slow fire. It was so steaming that it was cooking a large piece of meat that looked like ribs. The red color was particularly mouth-watering. There was also something inside the cauldron.
There are a lot of precious medicinal ingredients on the table, such as wild ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, shiitake mushrooms, and cypress fruits. The soup is stewed until it is thick and thick, like fine butter. The fragrance fills the nostrils and makes people move their index fingers.
‘Li Fan’s mood has improved a bit’
Li Fan swallowed, then lowered his face, turned his head expressionlessly, and looked at Kun, who was lying on the table next to him with his fins spread out.
Three small plates dipped in vinegar were also placed in front of Kun. There were some small rice dumplings wrapped in lotus leaves, which were mixed with glutinous rice, preserved fruits and vegetables, coriander tofu and minced meat and fish meal. Even the pot of thick soup was served to it.
I ordered a small bowl and set it out. What I was eating was actually three dishes and one soup...
Li Fan squinted his eyes and stared at Kun, and suddenly he felt a little bit how Fairy Wangshu stared at him every day. You say eat it, there is not enough meat, and it can't be stuffed between the teeth. Keep it, it's troublesome, and you have to be younger.
Thousands of years! Might as well lift this thing up, throw it into a pot and rinse it...
Fu Ling could tell what he was thinking at a glance, "No, after all, this is Qingyue and your spirit beast, right? This is the so-called Tao Yuan, the word 'mate' in Dharma Lover's land. It's a pity to abandon it. Come on,
Fellow Taoist, please use it."
While she was entertaining him, she actually took a bamboo spoon and poured some clear water on Kun's back.
However, Wangshu Xiaoju is actually built on Hantan, and Xuanming Zhenqi is quite full. This thing can be regarded as a mythical beast. In fact, it does not lack this water. Maybe Poria is just for fun...
"How about Sister Poria, can you help me raise it?" It's just a matter of the Condor Heroes. Li Fan doesn't want to take a catfish with him when he travels around the world...
"Don't be too obedient when you get an advantage. It's a rare opportunity to become a Taoist companion with a divine beast. Not only can dual cultivation of beast control be mutually beneficial, but there are also many mysterious methods. This is a secret secret skill of the three major sects. Those divine beasts
He is also the guardian spirit of ancient Taoism. None of us in Zhushan have such a blessing." Fuling rolled her eyes at Li Fan and saw that Kun liked to eat tofu, so she scooped another spoonful for him.
Li Fan, "..."
Although he also knew that when he went out to pick up divine dragons, fire phoenixes, fox queens, catwomen, etc., they were reserved items for time travellers, with hidden attributes, but why did he draw a catfish when it was his turn?
‘Xuan Tian’s sword intention indicates that it is not a catfish but a Kun’
Kun Kun Kun, Kun, you are so small, there is no use for such a small one! Can it play basketball?
Xuantian's Sword Intention means that although he doesn't know what a basketball is, Kun can absorb mountains and rivers, cover the Northern Dark, and swallow up nine seas. On the day when Taoism is completed, it can also transform into a golden-winged roc that can move clouds and soar across the heavens and the universe.
Although this Kun is young, he is born from the Great Dao after all. As long as he learns the righteous method of the divine beast, he can practice and grow with his host, and his realm will not fall behind others.'
Oh, then do you have some kind of magical beast?
'The Xuantian Sword Intent means that the Immortal Palace lineage is better at controlling beasts, and the Taoist companions used by the Beichen Sect are all flying swords.'
Damn, if I say it, I haven’t said it yet. By the time this thing grows up, it might be out of date for thousands of years!
Li Fan couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Forget it, forget about this thing. Anyway, he didn't have much hope for the messy lottery system at the beginning. He just carried it with him as a small pendant pet, at least from the look of Poria.
I quite like this silly little fish, so I just keep it for picking up girls...
Li Fan didn't think about it anymore. He filled a bowl of soup and ate a piece of ribs.
‘Li Fan’s mood has risen significantly by 1 point’
Fu Ling looked on and asked cautiously, "How does it taste? This is the medicinal diet that the lady specially asked to prepare for you. The ingredients themselves have a strong taste. Even if I manage to adjust the taste, it may not be easy to swallow.
, but for the sake of cultivation, I still try to eat as much as possible..."
"Sister Fuling, you are so humble!" Li Fan wolfed down the bowl and emptied the bottom of the bowl. "The meat is quite chewy and stewed just right. I almost swallowed it with my tongue. It's better than
Na Ke Shan... is much better than the imperial chefs outside that mountain! It is simply a rare delicacy in the world!"
"Really... Humph, please give me a high hat. What kind of royal food have you ever eaten?" Poria looked suspicious, but seeing that Li Fan ate really delicious food, he gnawed one piece after another, so he relaxed, "
But Qingyue, you are really powerful, you have seen the lady’s magic form and you can still eat..."
Li Fan's chopsticks paused for a moment when he mentioned this, with black lines all over his head, "Well... it's probably because I saw it that I vomited all the acid in my stomach..."
"Hahaha! What a beating!" Fu Ling covered her mouth and laughed happily. When she saw Kun on the table staring at the food cauldron and patting his fins, she held back her laughter and fished out a small piece of meat from the cauldron and put it on a plate for Kun.
Eat, "But Miss, you have to give me some advice, and I have to thank you. But if there is anything you want to eat, I can make it for you."
Would you like to eat tofu?
Li Fan swallowed the pork ribs and meat in his mouth and said with a smile, "Sister Fuling, you don't have to be polite. I actually didn't do anything. It was the fairy who became enlightened by herself. Even without me, she will definitely have a breakthrough in one or two hundred years."
Already."
Fu Ling nodded but shook her head, "Anyway, it's a good thing to be earlier. The mountain master is in seclusion, Qin Sword Master is seriously injured, and when our faction has no successor, a young lady has broken through to become a god. Finally, we have a backer on the table."
"There is no successor?" Li Fan was a little strange now, "But I seem to have seen dozens of real people coming to congratulate the fairy..."
Fu Ling sneered, "Do you really think they are here to congratulate you?"
Li Fan was speechless for a moment, and Kun also turned his eyes to look at Poria.
Poria smiled bitterly, "Well, there are some things that I shouldn't tell you, a boy, but sooner or later Qingyue you have to know, so I'll just remind you a few words. Do you know the origin of our Mozhushan Sect?"
Li Fan shook his head repeatedly.
Fu Ling thought for a while and said, "It's a long story. I only heard the lady give a rough idea, that is, when Xu Yue was not born and the spiritual world was still seeking the Tai Chi Immortal Way, the First Ancestor Immortal Lord was the first in the world.
He was in the realm of enlightenment and the first immortal to become an immortal. Later, he suppressed the four divine continents and twelve kingdoms in the world, and used the Immortal Palace to rule the immortal world and the human world.
At that time, most of the practitioners in the spiritual world and the human world worshiped the Immortal Lord and were included in the Immortal Book and the God List under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Palace. However, there were always some casual practitioners who were unwilling to give up their own way, so they were labeled as hereditary by the Immortal Palace.
, our Mozhu Mountain was originally a sect established by this group of leftist cultivators.
So Qingyue, you have also seen that there are two mountains and fourteen peaks in Mozhu Mountain, but the inherited sects are far more than that. They were suppressed by the Immortal Palace and forced to unite to protect themselves, because the resources and successors are limited, and the sects are scattered.
In the end, it was not as good as the authentic Wuji Immortal Way. Later, they even gave up the division of sects, exchanged secrets and techniques, and sent fellow practitioners.
Therefore, the monks who join our Mozhu Mountain can browse various sects and choose the exercises that suit them. Each sect only needs someone to pass it on, and there is no sectarianism in the first place.
But later, when there was a virtual moon in the sky, and the mainstream of the spiritual practice world became the practice of Taisu Heavenly Dao, we, Mozhu Mountain, had differences of ‘different Dao’. Over the years, two factions gradually formed within the mountain sect.”
Fu Ling pointed to the outside of Shu Xiaoju, where she could vaguely see the mountain master Fei Feng, whom Li Fan once visited for a meal. "The first faction is our inner sect mountain master. The mountain master, including the young lady, has three direct disciples.
He is assisted by two elders, Qin Sword Master Du Gongshi, both of whom advocate active moon worship and practice, transform themselves into Taisu, and practice the innate way.
But you should also know that the Mountain Master sect all took the shortcut of Tai Su Dao. Through the practice of worshiping the moon, they have grown rapidly in the past few hundred years. The foundation is not deep, and magic shapes often appear, so they usually have to break through.
Nascent Soul has just been officially accepted as a Taoist disciple, and the talents under his command are limited."
Then she pointed to the outside of the mountain, "There is another sect, which is the inheritance of the masters of the outer sect. They are the lineage of the ancient Louguan Taoism. The so-called Louguan people refer to the ancient Taoist sects that build towers with grass and watch the stars and qi.
. Originally the sect with the largest population in Mozhu Mountain, it has always dominated the conversation outside the mountain. Therefore, my sect often leads Lou Guandao's ultimatum when traveling outside.
The views of the Guanzhu lineage are generally similar to those of the three major forces. They will never take the risk of directly worshiping the moon before reaching the threshold of spiritual breakthrough. However, Lou Guandao has the secret technique of stargazing since ancient times and uses the method of borrowing star power.
After the moon appears, you can directly observe that in the ancient universe, everything else is the form of things but not things. In addition, the disciples of the Mountain Lord faction often have the flesh that manifests the demonic form to be divided. Therefore, the monks of the Guanzhu lineage
In daily practice, although it is not as subtle and fast as the Taisu Dao, it is still better than the ordinary Houtian Immortal Dao, and many people have successfully broken through the Golden Elixir Nascent Soul.
Therefore, in these years, the reputation of our Mozhu Mountain has become more and more famous. After all, after the mountain master and the lady have solidified the foundation, our Mozhu Mountain has a great sect with one enlightenment and three gods. Even if it is placed under the three major forces, and those
Compared with other ancient sects, it can be ranked among the top ten sects."
"I see." Li Fan understood. The monks of the Zhushan Sect, like him, also considered the risks of worshiping the moon. The Mountain Master lineage practiced forcefully regardless of the risks, while the Guanzhu Lineage only practiced at the threshold.
With the help of the Moon Worshiping Breakthrough, I usually practice using magic-shaped materials and eating medicinal materials such as Five Immortals Soup. Thinking about it this way, the monks who came to kill Fairy Wangshu were mostly from the temple master group and came to share the meat.
"So the Guanzhu faction and the mountain master faction are fighting among themselves for the right to speak out about the Mozhu Mountain Taoism?" Li Fan asked.
Fu Ling laughed and shook her head, "It's not that bad. The position of the Lord of the Inner Sect Mountain was originally set by the rules. The person with the highest cultivation level in Mozhu Mountain should be the one to guard the Blessed Land of Mozhu Mountain Cave. And the Lord of the Outer Sect Temple has also been there since ancient times.
It is the leader of Lou Guan Dao who serves as the sect. Because of the relationship within the Taoist sect, he has extensive friendship with the three major sects and the human world. There is nothing to fight about."
"That……"
"I want to remind you that in fact, among the disciples of Zhuji and Jindan, some people regard moon-worshipping monks like Miss as demons. They don't believe that they can suppress the demonic nature, and they may show up at any time." Fuling said seriously, "These
People do not dare to worship the moon themselves. Instead, they expect others to turn into monsters to make elixirs for themselves. They will not even give those monks who appear in form a chance to recover their sanity. They may kill them and share their flesh whenever they get a chance.
And if this is the case in Mozhu Mountain, the tendency among the monks from other sects of the three major sects is even more serious.
Qingyue, you worship the moon as soon as you enter the mountain gate. In the future, it is inevitable that you will be unable to control the demonic form. Not only must you keep your mind and keep the path to control it, but you must also be careful of these so-called fellow disciples. The devilish nature of people is sometimes
The most ferocious.
Okay, you eat slowly, rest early, and I will take you to Mulong tomorrow."
Li Fan thanked him sternly, "Thank you Sister Fuling for your advice."
Xuantian's sword intention expressed that this girl is dull and stupid. She wants to do justice for heaven. Killing demons and exterminating demons is the origin of our monks. Could it be that we didn't get rid of the demonic form immediately when we saw it? Instead, we had to let it control itself.
Opportunity, if it cannot control it and escapes and harms the people, then whose fault is it? The host should not listen to her nonsense, just eliminate the demon and divide the flesh, why not do it.'
...Yes, so these two groups of people really have different views. If it is up to him, Li Fan, to speak, the specific situation must be specific...
Then Kun patted the table.
'Kun said he still wants to eat tofu.'
Eat eat eat eat your head!
Distracted by the catfish, Li Fan was also distracted for a moment. He simply didn't care about what happened next. He just ate meat and soup to satisfy himself, and threw the leftovers to Kun. He then returned.
I meditate in the room and digest the replenished Tao breath in my body.
Now the true Qi in Li Fan's body is at least equivalent to that of an ordinary person who has been practicing Qi for twenty years. The meridians all over the body have been opened. The inner view of the triple burner. The Qi sea is full. It is actually time to prepare to build the foundation. However, Xuantian Sword Intent
Advise him not to rush.
