"Uncle Daojing, don't you want to take your disciples back to the temple in a hurry?"

Qingyang Taoist priest is very strange.

His uncle Dao Jing was obviously anxious to call him back.

But these days, his uncle only took him away from Suzhou, but wandered in the south of the Yangtze River for half a month, and hurriedly took him back to Suzhou City a few days ago.

Taoist Dao Jing stroked his long beard with his hand, pointed at the surrounding markets, and said with a smile: "Didn't you see it along the way?"

"Did Uncle Master have already anticipated the flood a few days ago?"

Along the way, Qingyang Taoist priests also saw the messy appearance of many villages and counties after floods, as well as the epidemics that were gradually emerging in various places.

Then I think of Dao Jing’s strange behavior in recent days, wandering around the south of the Yangtze River and refusing to leave, and now he has returned to Suzhou City just in time.

It can be guessed naturally.

There must be some hidden secret that he doesn't know about.

This made him slightly dissatisfied.

As a bachelor of Guantian Academy, he should not have left the academy when it was in dire need of help.

If Old Dao Jing had known about this, but took him away before that, he would have clearly trapped him in a situation of disloyalty and injustice.

"good,"

Old Taoist Dao Jing seemed to be able to hear the dissatisfaction in his words. He looked back at him, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Do you think I, uncle, care about human life in vain? I deliberately sit back and watch this flood wreak havoc, ignoring the lives of the people?"

Taoist Qingyang lowered his head and said, "Disciple doesn't dare."

"If you don't dare, you just don't believe it."

Dao Jing, the old Taoist, was not upset and sighed: "Actually, the headmaster brother has already calculated the disaster of this flood. This disaster has been foreshadowed by the heavens. This is a certain fate."

"If you press this end, the other end will also rise. If one person is blocked, there will be two more."

"Just like an abscess in life, you must wait until all the pus has emerged before you can remove it at once, otherwise the consequences will be endless."

"You are still young and have little experience, but you do know some medical knowledge. Why don't you understand this?"

Dao Jing, the old Taoist, gave him a reproachful look.

"Disciple is ashamed, I really shouldn't have slandered my uncle..."

Qingyang Taoist priest looked frightened.

Dao Jing, the old Taoist, waved his hand and said, "That's all, your uncle and I are not that stingy."

"only……"

Qingyang Taoist priest hesitated and said: "Disciples are still a little puzzled. From looking at the situation in various towns and counties along the way, this flood disaster has affected a very wide area. I also heard that several important roads in the Qiantang River have burst their banks. It is so dangerous. How come it seems to have disappeared?

casualties?"

"Also, the outbreak of epidemics is normal, with no casualties."

"Where did you come from as a Taoist priest? You don't even know about this?"

The two talked without deliberately avoiding others, and his question happened to be overheard by a passerby.

The pedestrian looked surprised, and with a bit of superiority and pride, he raised his head and said, "Haven't you two heard of Jinshan Temple?"

"Zen Master Fahai, the abbot of Jinshan Temple, has great supernatural powers. He used his great magical power to retreat the flood. He saved me from danger."

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is enshrined in Leifeng Pagoda. He is a great merciful and compassionate person. Everyone within a thousand miles of Qiantang is protected by the Bodhisattva. It's just a mere epidemic, so what's there to fear?"

"Jinshan Temple? Fahai?"

Dao Jing, the old Taoist, murmured these names.

The Qingyang Taoist priest next to him had a strange expression on his face. He was very familiar with this name.

Since childhood, he has worshiped under the sect of Ye Fashan, the master of Jingyang Temple in Maoshan Mountain.

Who in the world doesn’t know the name of Master Luofu?

Together with Zhang Tianshi, the former Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain, and Ge Xianweng, the ancestor of Lingbao Sect in Gezao Mountain, they are also known as the three living immortals.

During the five dynasties of Gaozong, Zetian, Zhongzong, Ruizong and Xuanzong, he was regarded as the emperor's master and was named the Celestial Master of the Kingdom and the Duke of Yue.

After Xuanzong, he resigned from his official title and lived in seclusion in Jingyang Temple on Maoshan Mountain.

As a direct disciple of such a person, he is extremely noble.

He has a noble status and outstanding talent, so naturally he has never suffered any injustice.

He also thinks that no one among his peers can compare with him.

Therefore, although his nature is good, it is inevitable that he will develop some arrogant habits.

But that day, she was beaten in such a humiliating way by a monk who looked younger than herself.

He can be regarded as having his own pride, and he thinks that the other party is not an evildoer.

After suffering such a big loss, I just wanted to practice my skills in the future and come back to regain my position. I didn't think about relying on my master to bully others.

But I didn't expect that in less than a month, I heard that the other party had done such a big thing.

Listen to the passerby talk about the scene of that day with great joy.

Although the traveler himself was not sure that Fahai was the one who provided disaster relief that day, it was just hearsay, but Taoist Qingyang could conclude that it must be him.

There is no reason, just a vague feeling.

The ability to divert floods with one thought, cut off rivers with one hand, and move mountains and seas closer, is probably only half a step away from being a true immortal on the ground.

This is a state that can only be achieved by beings like the head teacher...

Is there any hope that I can defeat him and save my face in this life?

Qingyang Taoist priest was thinking absentmindedly.

"Which family is this Fahai a descendant of? It's really hateful!"

Dao Jinglao who was on the side dismissed the group of people and said angrily: "It is a great merit, but someone has taken advantage of it first."

"That's all. This person is too greedy and has grabbed the biggest benefits, but he won't even let go of this epidemic. Is it possible that he still wants to take advantage of this merit alone?"

"The old Taoist would like to see what this Sea of ​​Dharma and Guanyin are capable of, and dare to call themselves a holy monk or a Bodhisattva?"

"Uncle Master..."

Qingyang Taoist came back to his senses and said hesitantly: "If it weren't for this person, this flood would have flowed thousands of miles away, and the Suzhou area would have been completely wiped out. The epidemic is raging, and countless lives have been lost. How could it be..."

How can one be blamed for some meritorious deeds?

After all, he is his master uncle, and Qingyang Taoist priest did not say any words of blame.

Although he was unhappy, it was because he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to get rid of his previous bad temper.

However, he greatly admired Fahai's actions.

If it hadn't been for him, how many bones would have been added to the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou?

"You are still young, how do you know this?"

However, Dao Jing, the old Taoist, frowned and said: "We cultivators must cultivate Yuan Qi Dao Dharma internally and cultivate merits, virtues, Taoism and fruits externally. Both are indispensable."

"Such a great merit should not be missed even in normal times."

"What's more, Empress Yuanjun has issued a golden list of merits and virtues this time. Anyone with meritorious deeds who is on the list can go to the Longhua Immortal Association and reach the sky in one step, right in front of them. How can I let it go?"

"Each family has already made a conclusion on this matter. We should follow each family's decision and share their contribution. How can one person take full advantage of it?"

"But……"

Qingyang Taoist priest couldn't refute what he said.

But I always feel a sense of suffocation in my heart.

It seems that this kind of behavior is somewhat contrary to what he wanted in the past.

But this is determined by each family. The teacher is one of the three immortals of Taoism, so it is not determined by the teacher, and he must know it.

In this case, how could he doubt it?

"Qingyang, I know you are kind-hearted, but this is a given. Even the imperial court turned a blind eye and never interfered. That's why."

"This monk Fahai dares to do such a crazy thing. Even if I don't go looking for him, uncle, someone else will. If you don't believe it, you will know when you go and take a look. But you are not busy now. Wait for this

It’s over, go find that crazy monk and ask for an explanation.”

Dao Jing, the old Taoist priest, warned with sincerity: "Right now, you and I have to go to various towns and counties to apply talismans to control the epidemic. The merits allocated to Jingyang Temple this time have already been decided in the temple, and you can take them all."

"Although the crazy monk took most of the advantage, there is nothing I can do. I can only find other merits for you afterwards. If it is too late, even the rest will be robbed by the disciples of various sects."
