Volume 1 Juvenile Exhibition Scroll Painting Dust Chapter 16 Yunlu Dao Palace Farewell Inside and Outside
When Xiao Er went out, the first thing he did was naturally to buy a mobile phone.
For modern people, the mobile phone is not there, it is inconvenient to lose any magic weapon, not to mention that he has now in addition to the ID card because he has not lost it because he does not carry it with him, the campus card, bank card, and room door card in the wallet are all gone.
Fortunately, he occasionally went in and out of the ghost market to buy and sell cultivation materials, and he would always have some cash in his room, otherwise it would really become an endless cycle of "money needs to be transferred by mobile phone - mobile phone is lost - money is needed to buy mobile phone".
From this point of view, it is indeed much more troublesome for a modern person to lose his mobile phone and wallet than for a practitioner to lose his natal weapon.
Xiao Er bought a mobile phone, used his ID card to reissue a phone card, and then reissued all other documents...... After running this lap, I found that it was almost time for lunch, so I walked to the foothills.
Today is Sunday, and it is the auspicious day of the incense on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, Lushan, which sits on the five first-class scenic spots of the two ancient temples of Buddhism and Taoism, is the time when the crowds are crowded, almost within a few kilometers close to the Taonan University area, it is difficult for any vehicle to move an inch, tourists from all over the country come to visit, and rush to the mountain several narrow stone steps one after another, and then find that the top of the mountain can only see the boundless sea of people, and then disappointed from the waves of the sea of people backstream.
Xiao Er was rushing to eat up the mountain today, so he didn't go directly to the cliff and enter the cave, but was squeezed into the main hall of the front mountain of the Yunlu Dao Palace in the flow of people.
The history of Yunlu Palace, which was built in the Ming Dynasty, is not as long as the neighboring Lushan Zen Temple, and compared with the Zen Temple that opens the door of convenience, Yunlu Palace as a tourist attraction is to charge tickets, so the tourists here are much less than other scenic spots, and most of them are Xinshan who spent money to enter the incense, and will not be noisy at will, so when entering the mountain gate, Xiao Er, who was squeezed into sweat, felt a lot cleaner.
Last night, a rainstorm fell, the air in the mountains was exceptionally fresh, and the bluestone slabs in the courtyard were recognizable.
Bypassing the main hall that had been renovated many times, Xiao Er picked up the path and walked to the wing room where the disciples of the outer gate lived, and walked to the archway, where a little Taoist boy stopped him and pointed to the sign next to the door: "Donor, the back is our living area, which is not open to tourists." ”
Xiao Er smiled: "I'm a friend of Daoist Ma Minghao, and I'm looking for something for him." ”
He has been coming and going a lot in the past few years, in fact, most of the Taoist priests outside the Yunlu Palace know him, and the Tong Fox glanced at him suspiciously, and seemed to feel a little familiar, so he got out of the way: "Uncle Ma is over there in the cafeteria." ”
After Xiao Er nodded in thanks, he walked through the long corridor and came to the canteen of Yunlu Palace. This is a large bungalow in the eighties and nineties, very poorly furnished, with only two large calligraphy on the wall, "respecting the life and harmony of people" and "saving food", four rows of long plastic chairs in the hall, on which more than a dozen Taoist priests are eating, and at the end of the table are several large vegetable plates, holding a plate of white rice and a few dishes.
In the middle of the city, these Taoist priests are not mountain monks who practice qi cultivation, but Xiao Er can still see their tranquility and purity. Maybe Yi Daochang really couldn't suppress his demons for a while because of personal reasons last night.
Xiao Er saw the fat Taoist priest who had just finished eating and hadn't started to eat at a glance, and walked over and sat beside him directly: "Hey, the fat man will help me get a meal." ”
Ma Minghao was taken aback by him, and stared at him with small eyes: "Why are you so shameless?"
Xiao Er smiled: "How is this shameless, I finally came here, shouldn't you invite me to a light meal?"
"Why don't you come?" Ma Minghao rolled his eyes: "You don't say anything about buying a talisman paper cinnabar buckle and searching for it, and you come to eat every week, so I've never seen you such a poor qi practitioner." ”
Although he was scolding, Ma Minghao still handed his dishes and chopsticks to Xiao Er: "You eat this, I'll go and get another one." ”
Yunlu Palace doesn't quit meat, so Xiao Er looked down and saw that the dishes were two meat and two vegetables, as well as a small bowl of winter melon pork rib soup, which was appetizing, and he ate it unceremoniously.
After a while, Ma Minghao sat down next to Xiao Er with the food, frowned, and said, "What's the matter with you?" ”
Although Ma Minghao's mana is a little lower than Xiao Er's, he is also close to the consummation of the Ming Tho Realm, and he can see at a glance that Xiao Er's complexion and spirit are problematic.
"I'm injured in a fight with someone," Xiao Er picked up the tip of a chopstick, "Is Yi Dao there?"
"The third senior brother is chatting with the senior brother," Ma Minghao frowned, "Did Senior Brother Yi ask you to do something last night that you were injured?"
Xiao Er swallowed the food in his mouth: "Yi Daochang didn't tell you, can I talk nonsense? Do you understand the secret? Take me to him after eating." ”
"Alas, the system of the Tianli Division is really strict, and the brothers of the same sect have to hide it, in the past, the second senior sister was a literary song, and she went directly out of the door wall, and the master was half angry, and now the third senior brother is like this. Ma Minghao complained, "Is it necessary to treat us mountain sects as demons to guard against it?"
"A restless lord like you can cause trouble much more than demons. Xiao Er smiled, "The worst thing in the world is not that evil disasters are rampant and demonic atmospheres are everywhere, but that you have me and I have you." ”
Ma Minghao didn't say that Xiao Er had forgotten, it was rumored that the Wenqu in the Jiuyao of the Tianli Division was the former second disciple of Yunlu Palace, and for the sake of the four words "Meaning to the Public", he broke his oath nine years ago to return to the law, and would rather abolish his own merits than break off the incense with the teacher.
It's just that Yi Daochang is deployed under the jurisdiction of Wenqu in the Tianli Division, so I don't know if this Lord Wenqu still has any contact with the senior brothers in the door.
After eating, the Taoist priests in the view have their own duties, Ma Minghao took Xiao Er to the back mountain, through a rockery, the sky suddenly changed, and the simple style of the palace in front of him from the modern rebuilt became gorgeous, and the two came to the Yunlu Cave again.
Ma Minghao took Xiao Er to a side hall and left by himself, Xiao Er went inside to see that Yi Mingzhang had been waiting for a long time.
"I've seen Yi Daochang. Xiao said.
Yi Mingzhang saw Xiao Er enter the hall and stepped forward, his eyes showing concern: "Xiaoyou is here, is the injury okay last night?"
"Generally fine, just a few of the deeds. Xiao Er said, "The student is still young and out of the way." ”
Yi Mingzhang's cultivation of refining qi and transforming gods, how could he not see Xiao Er's injury, he sighed, and took out a bag: "The Tianli Division requisitioned Xiaoyou as a temporary worker, and there are some materials and pills here, which are dangerous work subsidies issued according to the regulations of the Tianli Division, Xiaoyou accept it." ”
Xiao Er was stunned, and then stretched out his hand to take it, compared to the junior disciples who were focused on cultivating in some sects, the treatment given by Tianli Division to cultivators was not good, but after all, compared to many scattered cultivators who sold talismans to exorcise demons, it was still much more nourishing. Xiao Er was so entangled in other things that he had forgotten about it.
Yi Mingzhang saw that Xiao Er accepted it, and took out another incense tube: "Poor Dao had something to delay yesterday, and I didn't want to be tired of Xiaoyou's robbery, these twelve Mingqi incense came from the Li family in Lingbei, which is the most suitable for Xiaoyou's cultivation now, so I should be a little sorry for Xiaoyou." ”
Lingbei Zhang Li Lingnan Wang, the Li family is the same name as the Zhang family Lingbei cultivation family, especially good at refining medicine and making incense, the Li family's Ming Qi incense is the same spirit, nourishing the incense in the holy product.
It is said that when the Zheng Wangxian who ascended to the upper realm thirty years ago of the Kunlun faction was still alive, he had repeatedly exchanged Zhou Huanyu, a Kunlun specialty, for this Ming Qi incense with the Li family, and this transaction has continued to this day.
In terms of price, if in the ghost market of Lingbei Province, each Mingqi incense stick is around 3 million, and only the equivalent gold transaction is accepted, while in the adjacent southern province of Lingbei, the price is only afraid to increase by more than 20%.
In fact, Xiao Er himself had bought half a Mingqi incense in the ghost market, which was a life-saving straw buried in his safe house outside the city, so he knew that this incense was precious, and looked at the twelve Mingqi incense, and he was a little afraid to accept it.
"Xiaoyou doesn't have to worry about not going, I can't say that there is still a place to trouble Xiaoyou in this matter. Yi Mingzhang smiled and said, "Poor Dao still wants to ask Xiaoyou what he gained from exploring the demon domain at the bottom of the river yesterday?"
Xiao Er thought about it, stretched out his hand to take the incense tube, put it into the bag together, and saluted Yi Mingzhang respectfully, and then told him what he had seen and heard in the remnant domain last night.
After listening to Xiao Er's narration, Yi Mingzhang sighed: "It seems that those demon clans are practicing the three sects of the exercises, no wonder they are so ......"
"What's wrong?" Xiao Er couldn't help but ask when he saw that he seemed to be frowning.
Yi Mingzhang shook his head: "Xiaoyou doesn't know, this matter has been spread last night, presumably it is the little friend of the Qiaonan lineage who reported to the teacher, this morning Kunlun Zhou Zhenren has sent a talisman to the palace and the Zen Academy to discuss, they intend to send disciples to Sucheng to investigate this matter and exterminate the demon Kou." ”
"This ......"
Yi Mingzhang glanced at him: "Originally, this matter was only investigated and dealt with by the Tianli Division, but I was afraid that the news would leak out, so I didn't even tell the master of the sect, because I was afraid that there would be extraneous branches, and now that the three sects are here, the situation is bound to be difficult to control." ”
Xiao Er also felt a little headache, Tian Ziyang, isn't this adding to the chaos, the investigation of the case by the Tianli Division is a functional department to enforce the law, what is the sect on the mountain doing? Isn't it just a matter of armed interference in the judiciary? Not to mention whether the three cases are involved or not is still undecided. The two factions of Kunlun Lingguan are no more, and the Luofu disciples went down the mountain, which time was not a river of blood, and the relevant departments needed to make great efforts to calm down the turmoil.
It's just that the outflow of people's sect exercises, after all, is a major matter related to the inheritance of the ancestor, even if it is the Tianli Division, there is no reason to stop it, not to mention that whether it is the Gongzhi Department or the Tianli Division, there are a large number of disciples from the sect, they may be dedicated to the public, but the concept of sectarian inheritance for thousands of years is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it cannot be reversed overnight.
At this time, Xiao Er couldn't help but think of the complaint he had just said with Ma Minghao: "The worst thing in the world is that you have me, and I have you." ”
Yi Mingzhang also seemed to think of many layers, and sighed: "Little friend, the results of your investigation of the Demon Domain this time, Poor Dao will report it according to the process, and soon you will be able to officially join the Tianli Division, and Poor Dao has one more thing to ask for." ”
Xiao Er saw that Yi Mingzhang was embarrassed, and he understood with a turn of his mind: "The identity of the Dao Master is inconvenient, do you want me to be responsible for contacting the people of the three sects?"
