Chapter 045: That Mountain Hawthorn, This Lake Lotus (above)
Taoism has thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed say, before the dynasty of Jiu Dou Mi teach the old gods of Ma multiply frame “cloud set Gongfu Tu” the most deeply rooted, Lung Fu Shan at that time was only listed as the twenty-sixth Taoist blessed, is not a cave, compared to the Wudang Mountain seems to be too much inferior, but since the leap to become the ancestral court of Taoism, Lung Fu Shan Zhao Tianshi sitting in the town of Tianshifu evolution of the spread of the Taoism so far the hereditary Taoism has been forty generations, each of the Tianshi can get The imperial court enjoined, in addition to adding the title of heavenly master, but also the official to one or two products, called people hajj, and the emperor to teach health and disease techniques.
This generation of Zhao Danxia great master, and on the Yin Palace of the great priests and become a master of the state, the last generation of masters is still only in charge of the Jiangnan Taoist things, this generation will be in charge of the world’s Taoist religious affairs, rank as the first grade, the power of the king and his majesty, and got the reputation of the Minister of the Feiyei.
The free view on Longhu Mountain is a small view, thin population, not to mention the incense, probably Tianshifu can not stand to see, do not want the longest years on this mountain Taoist view of the lack of rice cut off, can only be a monthly relief of some silver, the free view of the original does not belong to Longhu Mountain Taoist court, the first two generations before the transfer of the name of the Tianshifu, to this point, Longhu Mountain, and then there is no Buddhist temples, and even the oldest such as the Free View of the small view can not be sustained, as opposed to the first Church The Taoist priests all moved out of Longhu Mountain one after another, which is a stark difference from the tolerant Wudang Mountain.
At this moment, the free view lived an old Taoist priest surnamed Zhao, Zhao Xituan. If outsiders hear for the first time will not take it for granted, as an uninspired only into the old man of the Dragon Tiger, Lung Fu Shan Tianshifu living in three Zhao Tianshi, but do not think that in the mountains surnamed Zhao must be great, only Tianshifu on the Lung Fu Mountain Taoist priests, only this “Taoist” leader, this generation of Lung Fu Master is Dan Zi generation, in turn down is quiet, The next is Jing, Ning, Ling, Jing and Guan.
Guan Li, the old Taoist Zhao Xituan looked at the yard after the wind and sun and snow pressure and rain beat hawthorn, has long been dried up, where can still mouth.
The withered yellow boy squatted in the courtyard, looking a little embarrassed.
The old Taoist accompanied by a side, today is a good day of cool and warm, the most suitable for the good man to mention the year brave, leisurely self-satisfied said: “Long Xiang ah, for the teacher young time like to entertain the landscape, young will understand the gossip, no books do not read, floating out of the world, when the mountain ancestor of the old man to me that is like a mess, can be for the teacher where to care about this feathered minister of the name, wandering for thirty years! to come years before returning to the mountain, hey, in the mountain is also doing a bit of passing scripture teaching seal seal healing the sick imperial disaster things, only almost by the old emperor invited into the palace to tell the yellow old man art, don’t look at the heavenly master’s house there are quite a lot of people have been to the capital into the great inner, but that’s because they are also surnamed zhao, with the teacher is different, for the teacher does not rely on the family name of this meal, the fame can reach the sky to listen to the same.”
“Longxiang, don’t look at hawthorn, say a few words with the master, nagging, master and disciple can’t say a few words every day, unlike words, outsiders still think that the master doesn’t care about you.”
“Apprentice, if not for the teacher to teach your old ancestor back then only passed on to me one person’s ‘Great Dream Spring and Autumn’, this is my arrogant nephew have not been able to understand the Taoist Immortal Technique, for the teacher to be able to keep this free view, rely on this Dream Spring and Autumn. This heart method, compared to the Wudang that big yellow court only not bad, for the teacher now can sleep for three years, or the old ancestor is powerful, it is said that a lying a son is not difficult, for the teacher thought that year the old ancestor feathered is not ……”
The old Taoist saw the young man’s face expressionless, then feel this self-talk some boring, yawning, drowsy, only to see him just left foot bent on the ground, right foot rests on the left leg, one hand rests on the cheeks, the side of the head to sleep soundly in the past. There is no chair or stool under the old Taoist monk’s buttocks, but his body swayed around, but did not fall down.
Only see this Longhu Mountain Xizhi generation of old Taoist side of the cheeks of the hand like holding a sword trick, the left hand is ten fingers like a hook, pinched the heavy sun meridian trick, came from the old man murmured sound: “sleep spring and autumn, sleep spring and autumn, stone root high lying forget its years. Do not lie on the felt, do not cover, heaven and earth as a bed draped in the bright moon. Boom thunder and lightning, Taishan destroyed, ten thousand feet of sea water falling in the air, the black dragon shouting ghosts and gods scared, I when this time is sleeping soundly …….”
Outside the courtyard, stood a young Taoist priest wearing a positive yellow honorable Taoist robe, closed his eyes and stood still, silently reciting: “With eyes to the nose, the nose to the door of life, the heart and eyes to the internal view. Sheepishly breathing, silently practicing, virtual extreme tranquility. The true qi floats in the danchi, and the divine water surrounds the five interiors. Calling out the armor, calling the hundred spirits, my god out of the nine palaces, wantonly swim in the green and blue. Dreaming to see the sea, smoke to mention the yin and yang, I do not know the spring and autumn outside has passed five hundred years ……”
Xu Longxiang see the side of the old Taoist dead there dozing, but refused to go, then get up and leave the yard, free view is not high in the mountains, only at the foot of the mountain, and high above the Heavenly Master’s House is indeed a world of difference, but here out of the door can be seen such as a jasper belt wrapped around the mountain range of the Qinglong Stream, Xu Longxiang walked to the bank of the stream, looking at the two tied to the shore of the bamboo rafts in a daze, the teenager is afraid of the water, naturally, do not dare to board the rafts and go downstream! The young man was afraid of the water, naturally he did not dare to board the raft and go downstream.
Yellow robe young man proudly stood on the bank of the stream, snickered: “Xu’s fool, thanks to the Xitianshi teach you to sleep Spring and Autumn, do you understand? If you don’t understand, get back to Northern Liang before it’s too late, Longhu Mountain is not a place where fools like you can stay.”
Xu Longxiang ignored it and just stared at the stream.
Although the young Taoist with a divine face made a mockery out of his voice, he was a little distance away from that yellow barbarian, the last time he came to visit his old ancestor at the Prosperity Watch, he accidentally stepped on the hawthorn, then he was almost chased by this fool from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, he was in a terrible mess, which made many of the mountain Taoist nuns sisters and aunts laughed at the strange and shameful for a long time.
But he could see that the fool was afraid of water.
See Xu Longxiang finally turned his head, the young Taoist priest floated to the bamboo raft, a little toe, the bamboo raft will slowly slide to the opposite bank of the stream, it seems that this not very old Taoist priest played a hand trick, the bamboo raft in the middle of the creek in the middle of the position of the still.
A raft stood five or six to Longhu Mountain to explore the remote search for immortal literati, to see this mysterious scene, are clamoring in amazement.
The Taoist priest laughed, “Huang Barbarian, if you have the ability to come ah, I heard that you have two sisters, one acted slutty, one sells fame and fortune.”
Xu Longxiang was indifferent.
The Taoist priest continued to taunt, “You have a brother? It is rumored that the crown princess died because of this untalented His Highness?”
Xu Longxiang looked up sharply.
The Taoist priest smiled cheekily, “Come on, I’ll wait for you.”
Squatting Xu Longxiang did not completely stand up, like a leopard general bent forward to rush out, instantly swept to the stream, but not into the stream, but a foot on the front of the bamboo raft, instantly will be wide sturdy bamboo raft to pry out of the water, upright!
Just see his one hand like a knife, will maintain the raft of the thick rope to split, both hands a support, will be torn bamboo raft.
Rapidly picked up the bamboo raft a section of debris, was Xu Longxiang thrown out.
The sound alone pierced the eardrums, like a tiger’s whistle.
Then the strength of the force is evident.
The rain of arrows fell.
The yellow-clothed Taoist priest’s face was panicked, no matter how much he apes and monkeys, he could not escape from the bamboo arrows, he tried his best to just deflect some of them, and these arrows exploded as soon as they entered the stream.
Only to see the stream splashing like a fountain around the Taoist priest.
When the last bamboo stabbed his face, the young Taoist priest had almost resigned himself to his fate.
The middle-aged Taoist monk, also in yellow robes, floated across the river and floated to the bamboo raft, his left hand was behind his waist, his right hand glued to the bamboo, on the surface it looked unperturbed, but the bamboo raft was backing up sharply, and when he stopped moving, the middle-aged Taoist monk had already shot the bamboo back at Xu Longxiang, who was the number one in the world in terms of brawn strength.
