In the blink of an eye, the New Year has arrived.

On the day of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, all the people of Huxin Island gathered in Sanqingguan. Dozens of people, making the already small yard slightly crowded. It was even more crowded than the hundreds or thousands of people who had heard the sermon before.

The listener is confined to one area, while the people on the island in the middle of the lake are moving around.

Especially Lang Yining, his huge body is scurrying around. Long Yiyun, Long Yiquan, and Long Yian also hovered over Sanqingguan, seemingly tirelessly rotating.

"Big brother, I'm going to set off fireworks..."

In the courtyard, Chu Yimeng kept chasing Zhang Yifang for fireworks, and the little girl's mentality was undoubtedly revealed. Even Zhao Yingying felt excited, and followed behind Zhang Fangfang: "That's it, senior brother, didn't we buy a lot of fireworks? Put some now, and when it's the New Year, let's put some more." One is to say goodbye to the old year, and the other is the arrival of the new year, and we welcome the new year. ”

"Okay, the moment the New Year comes, let's put ......"

Zhang Fang directly refused, and grabbed Zhao Yingying like a strong man: "Senior Brother Zhao, you are a big man, what are you running around, why don't you go to the kitchen to help?"

In the courtyard, the main road Kun Dao, who can reach out to help, is not idle. Except for the elders of the division and the heads of various factions, everyone else is busy. Sanqingguan didn't pick up anything, except for pasting the door couplet written by Zhang Daoran, there was no decoration.

Zhang Daoran first went to the shrine, worshiped the ancestor master, and then came to the courtyard. Although the yard is a little messy because of the large number of people, it also has a New Year's flavor.

"The Sect Master's font is really beautiful......

In front of the Sanqingguan Gate, the head of the Wind and Dust Dao praised in his mouth: "The font contains morality, the sword qi is vertical and horizontal, and the blessing is unparalleled." It seems to be a contradiction, but it can only be understood if there is enough chance. It's a pity that the poor road has not enough opportunities to participate in enlightenment. ”

"I don't know if my door link also contains this kind of morality?"

The Wind and Dust Daoist suddenly showed a smile on his face: "If this is really the case, the poor Daoists will stand in front of the door every day and visit the Sect Union every day, and they will be able to cultivate the Dao." ”

Zhang Daoran also smiled: "Other people's Tao, after all, is different from oneself, other people's Tao is someone else's understanding, and one's own Tao is the direction ......of one's own cultivation."

"Calligraphy, in fact, is also a kind of monasticism, fellow Taoists, in addition to cultivating the Tao, you might as well try to practice calligraphy, your own understanding of the Tao, contained in it, or copy the scriptures, or write some inscriptions and biographies, are good choices. ”

Zhang Daoran said with a smile: "Not only can I re-comprehend my cultivation here, find out the shortcomings, but also be able to write scriptures and accumulate capital for my island in the middle of the lake." ”

"That's a good idea...... Hengkong Dao Chang's eyes lit up: "Poor Dao used to just watch Zhang Daoran write calligraphy, and he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect that writing calligraphy would have this effect... It seems that in the future, there will be a chance to pass the time of boredom. ”

"In this way, Daoist friends will not always want to get out of the island in the middle of the lake and travel to other places..."

Qing Ling Zidao smiled with a smile on his face: "It seems that Lao Dao also needs to ask the sect master for calligraphy." ”

"All the people on the island in the middle of the lake, whether it is the elders of the sect or the second or third generation of disciples, from now on, after the New Year, they must learn calligraphy. This can be regarded as the result of the one-year cultivation of the disciples every year in the future. In addition, Poor Dao decided that after the New Year, from the first to the third day of the new year, the disciples of the island in the middle of the lake will either demonstrate martial arts or Taoism, so that the elders of the sect can test the achievements they have learned in this year......"

Zhang Daoran had thought of this idea a few years ago. It's just that a few years ago, there were too few disciples, and there were only a few of them in the entire island in the middle of the lake. Even if it's a test, it doesn't make much sense.

Now there are dozens and nearly hundreds of disciples on Huxin Island, and the cultivation among the disciples also needs to be displayed and looked for deficiencies. It is said that it is a test, but in fact, it is nothing more than a pointing conference. Zhong Dao knew it in his heart, and nodded in agreement: "It should have ......been like this a long time ago."

The sect will develop more and more in the future, and it is impossible for the elders of the sect to care about every disciple, nor can they always pay attention to the cultivation and advancement of each disciple. The year-end examination can be regarded as a self-summary of a year's cultivation, and it can also be regarded as allowing the elders of the teachers to find out the shortcomings of the disciples' cultivation, so as to give guidance.

"One more thing..."

Zhang Daoran straightened up slightly, and beside the stone table sat Hengkong Dao Chief, Fengchen Dao Chief, Qing Lingzi Dao Chief, and Mengxi, the master of Qingzhai Dao Nunnery. Although Mengxi has a low rank, his identity is the head of the Qingzhai Dao Nunnery, and he has the same status as the Hengkong Dao Chang and others.

Originally, Mengxi didn't want to sit down, but he was persuaded by Hengkong Daoist and others, so he reluctantly sat down.

The island in the middle of the lake seems to be very strong, and now there are only four elders in the sect. Although there are many disciples, those who can take charge on their own are only geniuses. The island in the middle of the lake is still insufficient, and the time for development is too short.

"After the New Year, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is a day for believers to worship the gods and pray to God. Therefore, Poor Dao proposed that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a porridge shed should be built in Qingzhai Dao'an and porridge should be given to the outside ......"

Before Zhang Daoran finished speaking, the Hengkong Daoist smiled bitterly and said: "Sect Master, this idea is good, but in this era, soup soup can attract people to come? Even if it is big fish and meat, people are tired of eating it now, who will drink porridge?"

Zhongdao looked at Zhang Daoran, and seemed to have a lot of doubts.

Zhang Daoran smiled and continued: "The porridge on Huxin Island is different from ordinary porridge, there is heaven and earth spirit fruit in the porridge, which can prolong life and cure all kinds of diseases after eating!"

Everyone was shocked, so who would refuse?

It's just that the cost is too high!

Zhang Daoran was talking about soup kitchen, which was free, and if there were many people who came, it would require a lot of funds! Especially the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fruit, which was a treasure in the eyes of cultivators!

Seemingly knowing what the Dao was thinking, Zhang Daoran said with a smile: "The islands in the middle of the lake, the water in the well alone contains aura, and when the poor Dao is in the middle of the road, put some pills in the porridge, and naturally there will be unexpected effects......"

As for setting the soup kitchen location at Qingzhai Dao'an, Zhongdao didn't think much about it, but Zhang Daoran had an idea. After the death of Lu Jingdao Changxian, the influence of Qingzhai Dao Nunnery has obviously decreased a lot. Zhang Daoran's approach is undoubtedly helping Qingzhai Daoan and improving his reputation!

"From the eighteenth day of the first month to the end of the first month, the poor Tao still preached..."

Zhang Daoran sighed and looked around: "After all, the island in the middle of the lake is not enough, and if you want to improve your foundation, the most important way is to recruit disciples and preach the Fa... Therefore, after the end of the reduction, the poor path wants all the Taoist friends, whether it is the second and third generations of disciples, or the elders of the sect, the poor path limits each of you to two places, and you can recruit the disciples you like, enter the door wall, and cultivate the Tao together..."

Zhang Daoran took out a red-skinned gourd: "There are nearly 100 Kailing Pills in this, once you meet a qualified disciple, after entering the door wall, those whose meridians cannot be opened can use the Kailing Pill to open their spiritual veins......"

Accept disciples?

The people were not very happy.

Cultivation resources are limited, and disciples are difficult to find, if you want to accept two disciples, there are so many initiates on the island in the middle of the lake, each person accepts two disciples, at least there are more than 20 people on the island in the middle of the lake......

They have no such intentions......

"Real people... Accepting disciples, isn't it only possible to have the fate of master and apprentice to include the door wall? Not only that, where is it so easy for disciples to meet?"

Mengxi's words made Zhongdao quiet down, and his eyes looked at Zhang Daoran.
