Chapter 001: Longsu Mountain Qingyun Temple

Next Chapter

There is a mountain in the southeast of China, which is called Longsu Mountain.

There is a view in the mountain, called Qingyun View.

Qingyun Temple was built in 1892 A.D., built by Qingyunzi, a wandering Taoist, belonging to the temple of descendants, the property in the view can be inherited, and it is passed down from generation to generation between master and apprentice.

The elevation of Longsu Mountain is 1567 meters, the mountain is steep, Qingyun Temple is built on the top of Longsu Mountain, because the mountain is high and the road is steep, there are few believers who will come to the mountain all year round.

Zhao Qingshan is the fifth generation of the Qingyun Temple, the master Xuanyuan Zhenren gave the name Qingchengzi, just turned twenty-one this year, and grew up on this Longsu Mountain since childhood.

Since the Qingyun Temple has been in the same vein since its completion, there is no one else in the temple except for a master and an apprentice. Therefore, practicing Chapter 001 Longsu Mountain Qingyun View in Qingyun Temple, Zhao Qingshan has to do a lot of things every day, and he is the kind that does not touch the ground from morning to night.

Every morning at half past five, no matter whether it is windy or rainy or beautiful, Zhao Qingshan has to get up on time, comb his hair, wash his face, put on a robe, wear a crown, and tie a tape, he will start weeding, carrying water, sprinkling and sweeping the temple, making breakfast, and so on.

Xuanyuan Zhenren died three years ago at the age of eighty-one.

Since the death of Xuanyuan Zhenren, the master of Qingyunguan has become Zhao Qingshan, who was only eighteen years old at the time...... At first, he was immersed in the grief of his master's death in the first year, but Zhao Qingshan was still able to honestly do what he had repeated every day for more than ten years at this rebellious age.

But since the second year of Xuanyuan Zhenren's death, especially after Zhao Qingshan went down the mountain and walked around the township, many secular objects have been added to this Taoist temple, which has been inherited for more than a hundred years.

Thanks to the fame of Xuanyuan Zhenren in these ten miles and eight towns, although Qingyunguan is small, his family background is not rich, and the small deposit of 100,000 yuan completely made Zhao Qingshan embark on a road of self-depravity.

The Taoist temple is still the 001 Longsu Mountain Qingyun Temple Taoist Temple, the Taoist priest is still the Taoist priest, but there is an extra 1,500-watt gasoline generator in the corner of the Taoist temple, which will make a disturbing dream roar all day long, and electrify this Taoist temple that has been used for more than a hundred years.

With electricity, life is indeed much more nourishing than ever. Now there is not only a generator in Qingyunguan, but also a 22-inch LCD TV, a 14-inch laptop, and a 4-inch touchscreen copycat smart phone...... In short, Qingyunguan has changed dramatically compared to two years ago.

The only thing that hasn't changed is the Dao robe that Zhao Qingshan wears, the Dao crown he wears on his head, and the Dao boots he wears on his feet, which are his roots, and they will not change easily.

According to the master Xuanyuan Zhenren, the reason why Zhao Qingshan went to Qingyunguan to become a monk was because Xuanyuan Zhenren picked up the abandoned Zhao Qingshan when he went out to travel, and saw Zhao Qingshan's eyebrows and beautiful eyes and loud crying, so he couldn't bear to bring Zhao Qingshan back to Qingyunguan for a while, and gave him the name Qingchengzi and accepted him as a disciple.

What was the specific process, Yuan Xuanzhen didn't elaborate, and Zhao Qingshan didn't ask much, the only thing he knew was that his secular name was not given by his master, but written on the note left by his biological parents when they abandoned him...... I don't know why, Zhao Qingshan always feels that his origin is not as simple as Xuanyuan Zhenren said, maybe there is another hidden secret?

It's a pity that Xuanyuan Zhenren has passed away, and Zhao Qingshan can only hold back in his heart no matter how many questions he has.

On this day, the sky was full of dark clouds, and Zhao Qingshan, who had finished his homework all day, dragged his tired body into his small room and sat in front of the computer.

There is no network cable on the mountain, so he can only spend money to buy a wireless network card, and he only has more than two hours of Internet access every day, but it can also allow Zhao Qingshan to understand the outside world through the Internet.

In the past two years, he learned to type, QQ, and some simple computer applications. But Zhao Qingshan, who has not been very good at self-control since he was a child, can fix the time of surfing the Internet every day, and use this short time to find the information he needs.

Through the Internet, he knew a lot and understood a lot, but he invisibly questioned the ideas and theories that Xuanyuan Zhenren had instilled in him since he was a child.

Among them, the biggest problem caused by the increase in the amount of information is that Zhao Qingshan gradually has a tendency to develop into an atheist...... Yes, he is a monk, but he already has the basic conditions to become an atheist.

Today, as usual, the first thing Zhao Qingshan, who sat in front of the computer and turned on the computer, did first was to log in to his QQ and check if the limited friends on QQ had left him a message.

But just as he clicked on the landing bar, a blinding lightning bolt suddenly crossed the cloudy sky, and the white light almost illuminated the entire sky.

With the rolling thunder, Zhao Qingshan, who was sitting in front of the computer, trembled slightly, living alone on the top of the mountain at an altitude of more than 1,500 meters and encountering thunder and lightning, it is definitely not possible for anyone to easily control their emotions.

Lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured, Zhao Qingshan's first thought was not to cut off the power supply and turn off the generator, but to build a stone tomb for Xuanyuan Zhenren this morning!

The bonding between the stones is done by a special loess, which can be easily destroyed by any heavy rain before the loess is dry.

Zhao Qingshan stood up from the stool suddenly, and didn't care about the flashing avatar in the lower right corner of the computer screen, he jumped out of the room in three steps and two steps, and picked up a roll of plastic film on the small table at the door.

Xuanyuan Zhenren, including the three masters before Qingyun Temple, the tombs are all located under the pine tree behind Qingyun Temple. Rushing out of the Taoist temple in the pouring rain, and after hurriedly identifying the direction, Zhao Qingshan strode towards the stone tomb of Xuanyuan Zhenren with the plastic film.

However, just as Zhao Qingshan rushed to the grave and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a fiery snake-like lightning had already drilled out of the clouds, impartial, and happened to split on the tombstone of Xuanyuan Zhenren!

Zhao Qingshan, who couldn't dodge, trembled, and fell straight down like this, no longer moving for half a minute.

A golden light fell on Zhao Qingshan's body in the sky, and among the black and oppressive clouds, a looming gate revealed a vague outline.

If someone takes a closer look, they will be shocked to find that at the top of this gate that exposes a gap, there are three big golden characters written 'Nantianmen' with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing!

Attracted by the golden light, Zhao Qingshan's soul left his body, rose into the air along the golden light, and flew into the legendary Nantian Gate in a completely unconscious state.

After Zhao Qingshan's soul disappeared into the Nantian Gate, the scene of lightning and thunder in the sky also disappeared, and the thick dark clouds became lighter and lighter, as if there was no thunder or rain before, and the silence between heaven and earth was a little terrifying!!
