Tianzhu Mountain, Taoist Temple.

The morning light was shining and the mist was thick, and it was the time for the disciples to do their morning lessons. In the hall, the sound is clear, chanting the Taoist treasure, the back kitchen is full of smoke, preparing the meal for thousands of people, and the miscellaneous servants open the doors of each hall and begin to sweep and tidy up.

This is the daily routine of the Taoist Academy, order, rules, and meticulousness.

Sou!

Suddenly, a white shadow jumped onto the roof of a certain building at a very fast speed, stepping on the green tile cornices and running all the way north, so fast that only the phantom shadow could be seen.

The patrolman sensed the abnormality, and raised his eyes slightly, but turned a blind eye.

Soon, the white shadow ran to the back mountain, staggered up the steep rock wall, got into a small courtyard, flew away, and rushed in through the window.

"Squeak!"

Lu Yuanqing stretched out his sleeves, held it steadily, and touched the soft and smooth hair-it was the little white monkey in Mount Emei.

It followed Lao Lu for more than 20 years, listened to and recited scriptures all day long, accompanied the master to comprehend the avenue, and had long faded away from the bloodline that belonged to the beast nature, which was completely different from the demon clan.

Xiaoqing is the same, after being fed by Xiao Zhai for so many years, his genes and bloodlines have long changed, and his heart is far beyond that of ordinary monks, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a demon fairy.

In addition, Gu Xiaofei's white snake, if they both transform into shapes, eh, they just act in a play "My Family Has a Snake Fairy".

"Squeak!"

The white monkey is holding a branch with four or five spiritual fruits on it, and the red and tender peel is hung with crystal dew, which is mouth-watering.

It plucked one, wiped it with its hairy hands, and handed it over. Lu Yuanqing was just about to pick it up, but the white-haired arm turned around again and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hehe, you monkey!"

Lao Lu smiled, he had just woken up from his dry sitting, and he was also a little lively.

It is said that after he was promoted to the Yin God, he completely let go of his mundane affairs. Zhang Shouyang is now the second-generation abbot, innovating to eliminate malpractices and promoting good talents, which is even better than the previous momentum.

He lived in seclusion in the back mountains, concentrating on cultivation, and the only companion was this little monkey.

In fact, Zhang Shouyang couldn't be in office for long, the two were originally between the two of them, but because they were too late in studying the food qi law, they were one step behind. After a while, Zhang Shouyang will be perfect, and when he breaks through the bottleneck, the third generation of abbots will be connected.

The third generation is also a transitional period, mainly cultivating He He and Xu Ziying, and the fourth generation of abbots has already determined the scope of candidates.

This is the superiority of the Taoist Academy, like a rigorous and scientific large company, although old-fashioned and old-fashioned, but it will never make a big mistake, and there are thirty-six friends to lay a foundation, and the foundation is deep.

Phoenix Mountain, like a gang, like a family, is more free and casual, and with the increasing number of businesses, the disadvantages are also revealed. At present, the biggest problem is that there are too few old guys in the generation, only four.

When Gu Yu, Xiao Zhai, Long Qiu, and Xiao Jin all let it go, the second generation couldn't pick a leader who had an absolute advantage and could convince everyone.

You Yu and Zeng Keer are still working hard.

"Senior brother!"

Lu Yuanqing was teasing the white monkey, and suddenly heard someone outside greeting, brushing a few figures flashed, and Zhang Shouyang, Chao Kongtu and others appeared in front of him.

When he saw Zhang Shouyang coming over in person, he was also in a daze, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The news I just received was that the Sazu faction, the Xihe faction, the Zhongxiao sect, the Xiantian sect, the Taiyi sect, the Yuzhen sect, and the Qingcheng Zhang Yuanzhen lineage announced their merger into the Longnan Shenxiao faction at the same time. Chao Kong Tu said.

"What does the government say?" Lu Yuanqing's face changed slightly.

"They disbanded themselves, canceled the list, and then brought people to join, which is reasonable and legal, and the official and Taoist associations can't manage it. Zhong Lingyu said.

The Sazu faction and the Xihe faction are the remnant branches of Sa Shoujian, and the rest of the factions are the branches of the Shenxiao faction. Originally, there should have been Tan Chongdai's Qionglong Mountain faction, but unfortunately Qionglong Mountain has been cut off.

The strength of these seven families is not strong, and there are few disciples, but the act of merging factions has already set off storms throughout the country. As soon as the Shenxiao Sect was established, it stood out from the crowd with a super strong attitude.

Repair the true version of the trust!

"I'm afraid that it will cause the big law to follow suit, Shenxiao is when there is a shortage of manpower, and those small sects may not seize the opportunity to take refuge in the faction. Zhang Shouyang also said.

"Xia Guo is known as the Two Hundred Immortal Sects, but in fact, most of them are rootless sects with no exercises and resources. They do it happily, and others can't control it, and the third pole will inevitably appear. Lu Yuanqing sighed.

"Then should we make a statement?" Chao Kongtu asked.

"No need! Yun Yazi came from the upper realm, and he was under the seat of Sa Tianshi, and his identity was not trivial. Let's wait and see what happens, and don't let things happen. The world has been stable for more than ten years, and now the pattern has changed, in fact, the key is not in Taoism, not in momentum, but in the immortals.

A great power can share a piece of profit, and he can have countless followers. It doesn't hurt for us to give him three points, it's the right way to improve our own strength. ”

Lu Yuanqing's purpose of action is very much in line with the style of the Quanzhen Sect. Your momentum is fierce, so I will take a step back, not be ashamed, and I will not be ashamed until I laugh at the end.

Zhang Shouyang is the descendant of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and Zhang and Kong are the only two thousand-year-old families, and they know these truths better.

Lao Chao was unhappy, touching his nose and not knowing what the hell to do.

As soon as Lu Yuanqing saw him pouting his buttocks, he knew what kind of shit he was going to pull, and advised: "We are not blindly backing down, if they really provoke the head, we will fight back, but we must pay attention to proportion, don't make a war between the two sides, and both sides will lose."

Don't forget, it's not just those clouds in the Nether, and there's more than those two in Phoenix Mountain!"

Upper Valley, state-run.

Guogongying used to be a village, but now it is a small city, a small screw belonging to the imperial capital urban agglomeration. The imperial capital used to be the fifth ring road, and then continued to expand and expand, and has been built to the tenth ring road, with 9,999 houses, probably the world's largest giant city.

This place has no characteristics, it is not good in all aspects, if you have to find one thing, it is the Temple of the Childless Mother.

"No biological mother, vacuum hometown. ”

This sentence is very famous in the online literature circle of Xia Kingdom, and many people think that it comes from the White Lotus Sect, but it actually comes from the Luo Sect.

The White Lotus Sect existed in the Tang and Song dynasties and originated from the Pure Land sect of Buddhism. Luojiao is a folk sect in the Ming Dynasty, and the first ancestor is called Luo Menghong.

Luo Menghong absorbed the concept of "the mind creates everything" from Buddhism, believing that human suffering is caused by desire, so the pursuit of non-action is also called non-action.

Later, he slowly absorbed the Taoist viewpoint, believing that the world was formed from the vacuum hometown, and the vacuum hometown evolved into all things in the world, and created a supreme god - Wuji Holy Ancestor, which later evolved into the lifeless old mother.

The momentum of Luojiao once overshadowed the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, and after Luo Menghong was feathered, future generations struggled for power and declined rapidly. On the contrary, it was the White Lotus Sect that took over the idea and took "no mother, vacuum hometown" and became its own doctrine.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect became more and more involved in political events, instigated rebellion, was encircled and suppressed by the imperial court, and a large number of temples and books were destroyed.

But the childless mother has not completely disappeared, in some remote areas of Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, there are occasional statues of the old mother, but it has lost its religious significance and has become something like folk culture.

"I've been crying since last night, and I thought I was hungry, but I didn't eat the feeding, I just kept crying. ”

In a residents' activity room two streets away from the Old Mother Temple, a young mother held her child, her face full of worry, "Later, I went to the hospital overnight, and nothing was checked......

As she spoke, she wiped away her tears.

"Hehe, what do you look like when you crying, come and see what it looks like. ”

A kind old woman stood up, touched the child's head, rolled her eyelids, and asked, "Did you hit something evil yesterday?"

"No, yesterday's Halloween, I went to visit my father's grave...... Ah, I remember!"

In recent years, the popularization of science about ghosts has long been popularized, and the woman suddenly said: "I must have met a ghost who died unjustly, pestering our baby." ”

"That's it, the yin qi of the Zhongyuan Festival is heavy, this kid's soul is weak, and it is easy to provoke dirty things, don't worry......"

The old woman smiled and coaxed the child, "Come, good doll, open your mouth and give you candy." ”

The child is also magical, crying and opening his mouth, and then being fed a white and slippery jelly bean. The child Miamia smashed it twice, her eyes widened, and her crying stopped.

"Oh, that's God!"

The woman was overjoyed and thanked again and again: "I heard that you are a capable person, but when I see you today, ouch, I really don't know how to thank you." ”

"Hehe, don't thank me, the villagers should be, come ......"

The old woman took out another red rope, tied it around the child's neck, and said with a smile: "This will keep you safe, I wish this child a healthy growth." ”

The woman became more and more embarrassed, and she had to express that she had not sent it out after pushing around, and she was grateful to Dade for leaving the activity room. The old woman returned to the mahjong table and continued to play cards with the three old sisters.

The house is full of residents of the community, and their expressions are calm, and they seem to be very used to it.

"Mrs. Zhou is really powerful, the Taoist can't help it, she can also be cured. ”

"I heard that she learned the Tao when she was young and followed a master, and it is rare to be inconspicuous for so many years. ”

"It's just that others can't wait to their tails. She's good, she'll treat us for headaches and brain fever, the Bodhisattva is alive. ”

"Eh, we don't want to be a bodhisattva, I feel like the reincarnation of an unborn mother. ”

While discussing, the old woman surnamed Zhou put down the cards in her hand, and suddenly turned around and said: "Brother, the childless mother is a cult, you say so, I can't wash it away." ”

"Ouch, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm fast!" the two old men quickly apologized.

This old woman looked like she was in her seventies, and although she was wrinkled and her hair was gray, she had a sense of youth from the inside out. About a year ago, I moved to this neighborhood with my son and inadvertently showed my skills.

Slowly, she became more and more famous in the local area, and even Shanggu Taoist Temple came to visit, saying that she was convinced, and she was a master of the world, and now she became the goddess of all old men, and young people also respected her very much.

…………

Greenstone Valley.

Long Qiu stood in front of the grass house, and below him were a hundred delicate and charming Gu girls.

"You have been learning art with me for many years, and you have all achieved small successes, I will go to Kunlun to try the method of Gu Transformation God, and I will leave it to you here. ”

"Master, are you still coming back?"

"Master, don't you want us!"

It doesn't feel too good to have a hundred girls crying and moaning at you at the same time. After Long Qiu cut off the love thread, he became a straight daughter, and only said: "I am going, life and death are unpredictable, you can do it yourself." But you are my heirs, you can report the name of Phoenix Mountain when you go out, and don't slack off in your practice. ”

With that, her figure flashed and disappeared in place.

Only the golden cicada poked its head out of the void and looked back, with great reluctance.

(In other words, are there such things as baked cold noodles, finger cakes, and cold skin in the south?)
