Zhang Sanmad's face twitched as if he was almost cramping, and finally reached out to catch the five-dime coin handed over by Lin Bai.

"Hunting eagles all day long, and now I am blinded by eagle peck." Zhang San pinched the five dimes and muttered. However, he immediately remembered the sentence 'senior brother' in Lin Bai's words just now, was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "Little junior brother, how did you see through it?" ”

Lin Bai pursed his lips and said, "With this footwork under your feet, and the appearance of being greedy for money and lustful, apart from the old man, who else can teach such an apprentice!" ”

Zhang Sanmad smiled awkwardly and didn't squeak.

"Senior brother, what's going on with Master now, is it possible that it's not as fast as the truth on the phone?" Lin Bai lifted his luggage, looked at Zhang Sanmad in front of him and asked nervously. Anyway, after all, he is his own teacher who preaches and teaches his profession, and he pulls himself so big with a handful of and urine, and scolds on his lips, but he has to remember the word love and can't forget it in his heart.

"Let's go, we'll know when you go up the mountain."

Zhang Sanmad didn't say anything, picked up Lin Bai's luggage, found a tricycle and rushed to Maoshan.

Maoshan is a famous mountain in Jiangsu Province, China, with the beautiful scenery of 'Nine Peaks, Twenty-six Caves, and Nineteen Springs', and the praise of 'Seeing Mountains in Spring, Seeing Mountain Gas in Summer, Seeing Mountain Conditions in Autumn, and Seeing Mountain Bones in Winter'. Maoshan is the birthplace of the Shangqing School of Taoism, which is called the "Shangqing Altar" by Taoists, and has the reputation of "the first blessed land, the eighth cave heaven"!

In the Western Han Dynasty, the three brothers of the Mao family in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province, Mao Ying, Mao Gu, and Mao Zhen came to Juqu Mountain to cultivate the way and do good, benefiting the world, and the descendants changed the sentence Qushan to Sanmao Mountain in order to commemorate the merits of the Mao family, which was referred to as "Mao Mountain".

During the Tang and Song dynasties, Maoshan Taoism reached its heyday, the front mountain and the back ridge, the peak and valley, the palace, the view, the hall, the Yu and other various sizes of Taoist buildings as many as more than 300, more than 5,000 rooms, thousands of Taoist priests, there is "the beauty of the mountain, the Taoist saint, the cave is strange" said.

However, in the eighties of the twentieth century, after the catastrophe of the decade, Maoshan appeared to be a little decayed, although it was restored in the early eighties, but it is still difficult to show the incense in its heyday.

The Tianxiang faction is not on the main peak of Maoshan Mountain, but on the side peak on the side of Maoshan Mountain, at the foot of the mountain is a small village, more than 100 families look like a clean and tranquil place, it can almost be said to be a paradise. It's just that as soon as Lin Bai arrived, the past tranquility in the village was gone.

"Little White Dragon, you grandson still dare to come back!"

"Brother Lin Bai, you're finally back, you're not in our lead, I always feel like something is missing!"

"Lin Bai, why have you been out for so long, people are worried about you every day, they want to kill you, are you free tonight, come and show others a full body photo."

Greeting Lin Bai is nothing more than these three words.

The first kind of scolding his grandson was either Lin Bai took half of the eldest son in the village to peek at his daughter-in-law taking a bath, or Lin Bai stole the big rooster in the house.

The second is the half-grown child in the mountains, Lin Bai is not there, there is no leader who leads the trouble, and he feels that life has lost the taste of the past, and today he can't help but be happy when he sees the leader come back.

As for the third type, needless to say, that is the amorous and glamorous women in the mountains, most of them are the little daughters-in-law of the widow Li at the head of the village and the little daughter-in-law of the Zhang family at the end of the village.

scolded his mother, Lin Bai scolded back; Looking for the leader, Lin Bai smiled; As for the coquettish voices, Lin Bai appeased them one by one.

Zhang Sanmad, who was carrying his luggage on the side, was dumbfounded, he was still seeing it for the first time in his life, a person was still scolding his father and scolding his mother one moment ago, but the next moment he was an endless concubine, this contrast was too great, and his fragile heart was a bit unbearable.

After going up the mountain, he finally cleared up, and the more he walked up the mountain, the more solemn the expression on Lin Bai's face became, and there was a faint concern in his eyes.

This is where Lin Bai grew up. It is said that Lin Bai was picked up by the old man from the bottom of the mountain, and when he grew up, although Lin Bai asked the old man about specific things, the old man always smiled and did not say anything. Although the old guy was lazy and greedy for money, he forced Lin Bai to memorize some awkward ancient books such as "Mai Xiangfa" and "Green Capsule Sutra" since he could remember, but he really taught Lin Bai a good kung fu.

Halfway up the mountain, you will see a small Taoist temple, in addition to the main hall dedicated to the gods, is a small wing room, the roof of the house is in disrepair, but also overgrown with lush grass. The door of the wing room was open, and there was a black rumbling inside, and I couldn't see the situation inside.

"Master, Master......" Tears rolled down the corners of Lin Bai's eyes, and he rushed into the chamber.

Lin Bai looked around the main hall of the wing, but he couldn't find the figure of the old man, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked at Zhang Sanmad on the side and asked, "Senior brother, where is the master?" ”

"I don't know, when I went out, Master was still lying in the wing. The sky is overcast, and the beasts on the mountain have nothing to eat, so it is possible that the master is in trouble! Zhang Sanmad put down the luggage in his hand and said seriously.

As soon as the words fell, the sky was covered with clouds, thunder thundered wildly in the middle of the thick inky clouds, and golden light snakes cut through the sky that had been black for a moment, and the pouring rain slanted down.

Lin Bai and Zhang Sanfeng looked at each other, and they didn't care about holding an umbrella, so they wanted to run towards the mountain.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the old man just came out to pee, as for God to give such a big grudge, didn't I just delay the time to go to the Ghost Gate for half a day, as for such a big movement to torture me?" Suddenly there was a voice from behind the main hall.

With the words, a Taoist priest of medium stature appeared from the back of the main hall, his beard and hair were all white, but there was no wrinkle on his face, and his face was ruddy like a young man.

If you look at it from the appearance alone, this old man is estimated to be a well-maintained old man, but the vicissitudes of life that occasionally pass from the deep sea-like eyes between the eyes make people feel that this old man must be extraordinary.

"Alas, isn't this my precious apprentice, why do you have to leave just after you come back?" The old Taoist priest turned his head and saw Lin Bai on the side, and said with a smile.

Lin Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lao Dao, and scolded with a smile: "Old immortal, master, I didn't think that your two taels of lean meat were taken away by the wolf cubs on the mountain, and I wanted to go up the mountain to find you." ”

"Immeasurable Tianzun, the old way has been stormy for more than 100 years, even if God wants my life, he has to tolerate me for a long time, how can a mere wild thing harm my life!" The old Taoist priest easily tied the greasy trouser belt, waved his hand, the cynical look on his face disappeared, and he looked at Lin Bai and Zhang San in front of him: "Enter the hall and get down to business!" ”

Lin Bai was about to talk back, but when he saw the look on the old Taoist priest's face, he was stunned in his heart, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he still followed the old man into the main hall.

Tianxiang faction and other Taoist sects in Maoshan worship Sanqing is different, in the main hall, what they worship is the Taoist statue holding an ancient book in their hands, the ancient book has a peculiar shape, like a tortoise shell, and the three Yin characters are engraved on it, but they are very old, and they can't see what the three words are.

According to the old Taoist priest, this is the ancestor of the Tianxiang faction, although it is not well known to the world, but the Tianxiang faction still wants to worship incense and worship.

"Get on your knees!" The old Taoist priest looked very solemn and stood sideways in front of the statue of the patriarch

"You and I, the master and apprentice, are the descendants of the Heavenly Aspect Sect. The vein of physiognomy extends from the Hetuluo book, to King Wen, from the gossip to the sixty-four hexagrams, and after the promotion of Li Chunfeng and others, it is divided into three branches: Kanyu, charms, and numerology. ”

"Our Sect Master of the Tianxiang Sect is the Grandmaster Li Chunfeng who wrote the Tui Bei diagram, and it has been passed down for more than 1,000 years from the Tang Dynasty to my generation, and I am the fifteenth Grandmaster of our Tianxiang Sect."

Li Tianyuan glanced at Lin Bai and Zhang Sanmad, who were kneeling on the ground, and then said: "There is a secret treasure of inheritance in the Tianxiang lineage, every grandmaster must give this secret treasure to his disciples before he dies, find out the person who can inherit the secret treasure, and let him be the next generation of Tianxiang Grandmaster, this time I let you go back to the mountain because of this matter." ”

Lin Bai looked stunned, according to the meaning of the old Tao, this thing can only be inherited when the grandmaster dies, but seeing that the old Taoist's expression is not abnormal, how can it be?!

"My life is over, and I snatched it from God in the middle of the day today, otherwise how could I be so big when I leave the hall." The old Taoist priest seemed to see what Lin Bai was thinking, and explained lightly.

"It's not the time to cry." The old Taoist priest glanced at the two people who were crying on the ground, and then said lightly: "After ten years of catastrophe, the Heavenly Aspect Pulse has been divided into two sects. If I die, your unmasked uncle will definitely come to snatch the secret treasure of inheritance. ”
