"Are you talking about the Guigu faction of the Guiguzi lineage, and you still have something to do with the Guigu faction?"

Tang Ding nodded, "My master, that is, my father's master, is a descendant of the Guigu faction. ”

The Dragon Tiger Daoist stroked his beard and smiled, "I see, then don't worry, although our Hidden Immortal Sect and the Guigu Sect are two families, but if you really want to trace back to the source, they are actually one." Our Hidden Immortal Sect respects Lao Tzu as the ancestor, and the Guigu Sect respects Guiguzi as the ancestor, you read through ancient Chinese history, then do you know that Guiguzi's teacher is Lao Tzu?"

This Tang Ding really doesn't know, although Tang Ding has read through ancient history and is very clear about some ancient characters and historical events, but he doesn't know that Lao Tzu is Guiguzi's teacher. Neither the official nor the wild history has recorded this. However, Tang Ding knew that the eras in which Guiguzi and Lao Tzu lived did partially coincide.

Moreover, not only do the two have overlapping living eras, but even some of the views in their books are surprisingly consistent; Lao Tzu said "to people but not to people", Guiguzi said "to control people but not to people", and there are many similar, which fully proves that the relationship between the two is not far away. In fact, why didn't Tang Ding suspect that Lao Tzu and Guiguzi were masters and apprentices, it was because Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" was written slightly later than Guiguzi's "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in the Book of Benjing".

Of course, this is not to say that the Tao Te Ching is worse than the Yin Fu Seven Techniques of the Benjing, these two books take two routes entirely. Although the things explained in the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in the Book of Yin Charms" are very profound and obscure, making people look like a book from heaven, the "Tao Te Ching" is catchy, describing the simplest truth between heaven and earth in the simplest words, which can be described as the simplest way. In fact, the Tao Te Ching has long been spread to the whole world and is known as the world's first divine book.

The most powerful thing about the Tao Te Ching is that although the words are simple, the truth between heaven and earth described also seems to be easy to understand, but after reading it again, it has an endless aftertaste, and the more I read it, the more I feel that this book seems to have infinite words.

When the Dragon and Tiger Daoist saw Tang Ding's appearance, they knew that although he had learned profoundly and solidly, he didn't know about the hidden things before.

"Hey, Master, how do you know that I am studying in the Department of History at Beijing University?" Tang Ding suddenly reacted and asked.

"Hehe," the dragon tiger said with a smile silent.

Tang Ding reacted again, in fact, the master has been silently paying attention to himself, which can be seen from the master's self-inflicted dragon sword and the master's knowledge of the ancient history of Beijing University.

"I may not be as solid as you in ancient history, but you don't know as much as you know about some sects of mystery. In fact, our Hidden Immortal Sect and the Guigu faction were established about the same time, the Hidden Immortal faction was slightly earlier, and the Guigu faction was not late, the Hidden Immortal faction was founded by Guan Ling Yin, respecting Lao Tzu as the ancestral master, and Guiguzi saw that Guan Lingyin, who was also Lao Tzu's apprentice, founded the Hidden Immortal faction, and he founded the Guigu faction。 And Mr. Guigu is very good and strong, but he will not take the same route as the Hidden Immortal Sect, the apprentices he accepts are very miscellaneous, no matter who they are, and the skills taught are also very miscellaneous, everyone he only teaches one or a few skills, and never lets people learn them all, in order to show his breadth and profundity, of course, I am not belittling Mr. Guigu, on the contrary, Mr. Guigu is indeed a genius in the sky, no matter what aspect of ability, he is unparalleled in the world, in fact, he is above Guan Lingyin, one of the founders of our Hidden Immortal School. Therefore, Guiguzi was exposed in various ways during the Warring States Period, and the apprentices he taught blossomed in all directions, occupying almost all levels of the current society. Su Qin and Zhang Yi are the prime ministers, and they are in charge of the political affairs of a country. Pang Juan and Sun Bin are world-famous military commanders, commanding millions of soldiers. There are also Yaoli, Huang Shi, Li Mu, Wei Feng, Mao Sui, Han Feizi, Fan Li, Di Qing, Mao Sui, Xu Fu and others are all high disciples of Guiguzi, but their reputation is not as good as Su Qin Zhang Yi and the other four, but these talents from all walks of life are all over all levels of the entire Warring States.

However, it is precisely this strength of Guiguzi that has made the Guigu faction experience a huge prosperity, and its reputation and momentum have climbed to the peak, even greater than the fame of the monarch of any country. However, Guiguzi didn't know whether he foresaw this situation, or if he had planned for it, he had already taught everything he had learned in his life to a closed disciple, and this disciple was Xu Fu, who fooled Qin Shi Huang during the Qin Dynasty. However, Xu Fu is not stupid, on the contrary, the person who can be designated as the successor by Mr. Guigu must be a person of great intelligence, Xu Fu knows the decline of the Guigu faction, but this is the trend of history, but he is powerless to return to the sky, plus there are some festivals with the first emperor that everyone knows, so Xu Fu fled overseas. ”

Tang Ding listened to the master for a long time, and he didn't say how the Guigu faction and the Hidden Immortal faction were in the same line, except that the two founders Guiguzi and Guan Lingyin were both Lao Tzu's apprentices, he didn't hear any of the two sects related, the development ideas of the two sects were completely opposite, and in the end, they also developed their own individuals.

However, Dragon Tiger Zhenren seemed to understand what Tang Ding was thinking, so without waiting for Tang Ding to ask, he directly began to explain, "It's hard to imagine that Guiguzi has so many famous apprentices, but Guiguzi only cares about Xu Fu alone, so Xu Fu naturally became the sect leader of the Guigu faction." Later, just before Xu Fu fled overseas, he sent a letter to Guan Ling Yinzi, the suzerain of the Hidden Immortal Sect at that time, first talking about the relationship between the Guigu and the Hidden Immortals, and then talking about the current situation of the Guigu faction being suppressed by various countries before, and finally Xu Fu asked Guan Ling Yin Zi to hope that the Guigu faction could be merged into the Hidden Immortal Sect and the two sects would be one. However, because Xu Fu was in a hurry to be recalled by the First Emperor at that time, he did not wait for Guan Ling Yinzi's reply, and later Xu Fu crossed the ocean, and the matter came to an end temporarily. I have to say that Xu Fu's courage has made everyone admire. By the way, you said that your master is from the Guigu faction, do you know what lineage he is from?"

"My master's name is Xu Zhuo, and he is a descendant of Xu Fu's Guigu faction that traveled overseas. Tang Ding replied truthfully.

"Xu Fu Yimai? That's great. The two of us are an absolute family. "The Dragon Tiger Dao people are very happy.

The Dragon Tiger Dao man couldn't help but be happy, because he had already seen the opportunity for the Hidden Immortal Sect to flourish. Although more than two thousand years have passed, the Hidden Immortal Sect has long since changed the tradition of emphasizing refinement over many in the past, but in fact, the Hidden Immortal Sect has always been unpopular. Maybe the Hidden Immortal faction attaches too much importance to the word "hidden", so the Hidden Immortal faction has been developing intermittently, since Zhang Sanfeng in the Ming Dynasty, the Hidden Immortal faction has no characters who can handle it, but Tang Ding's master Dragon Tiger Taoist is quite famous, but he attaches too much importance to the relationship with the imperial court, and wants to rejuvenate the Hidden Immortal faction by befriending the people in power.

This is also the reason why the Dragon and Tiger Daoist has always emphasized to Tang Ding that "Taoism is the foundation". It was because the Dragon and Tiger Daoist was too eager to make friends with the imperial court that he neglected the cultivation of the Dao Law, which was the regret of his life.

Therefore, after accepting Tang Ding as an apprentice, the Dragon and Tiger Daoists taught by word and deed to prevent Tang Ding from taking detours.

Now, when the Dragon and Tiger Daoist saw Tang Ding's achievements and heard that Tang Ding had entered the big bronze gate under the Tianchi by chance, and that Tang Ding could be ranked with the sages of the Hidden Immortal Sect, he immediately decided to officially pass on the position of the sect leader of the Hidden Immortal Sect to Tang Ding. Seeing the masters gathered around Tang Ding again, the Dragon and Tiger Dao people really felt that the Hidden Immortal Sect was about to rise.

"By the way, I haven't asked yet, how did you get into the big bronze gate?" asked the Dragon Tiger Daoist.

"To tell the truth, I also went in a daze, there are dozens of dragons entrenched in the Tianchi, I fought with the dragon for a while, and inexplicably entered the Tianchi, and when I went out, I also came out inexplicably. "Tang Ding still doesn't know how to enter the Tianchi Bronze Gate.

"Okay, no matter how you got in, in fact, I think this inexplicable one you used is very good, this is enough to prove the depth of your relationship with the Hidden Immortal Sect, it seems that you are indeed the successor of the Hidden Immortal Sect handpicked by the sages of the Hidden Immortal Sect. The Dragon Tiger Daoist smiled and nodded, "If we count that our Hidden Immortal Sect has not produced a powerful person since Zhang Zhenren in the Ming Dynasty, and now that it has been four or five hundred years, there should be a Zhongxing person." ”

Today's Dragon and Tiger Daoist was in a very good mood, he looked at the three daughters of Xing Mu Liu in the distance, "Not only does our Hidden Immortal Sect have a sign of ZV, I think you are the big winner in life, and the sect related to you wants to be ZTE, and you are also a prosperous wife, and you have so many girlfriends at once." And I have a hunch that your girlfriend may be much more than that. ”

"Master, when did you learn to read faces?" Tang Ding said with a smile.

"Haha, to be honest, looking at physiognomy is my old job, but I didn't teach you, because as I get older, I feel more and more that only Taoism is fundamental, and Feng Shui physiognomy is just a minutiae. Excessive pursuit of feng shui physiognomy, and giving up the study of Taoism, is to abandon the basics. ”
