Chapter 004: Mysterious Master
It is a hill surrounded by mountains, and a temple with yellow walls and black tiles sits on top of the mountain.
Like a bird, he swept briskly through the dense trees and landed silently at the temple door.
At this moment, someone lit a candle in the temple, and a young man in a white robe came out of it and said to Xi Zhenzuo, "Miss Shen, please!" Then he led her into the temple.
In the living room sat a white-haired old man in his seventies, dressed in a white robe with black trim, his eyes slightly closed, and his expression serene.
"Master, I met a ...... today Very interesting people. Shen Xizhen saluted him and said, she didn't need to go into too many details, she knew that with his ability, she must know very well what she meant.
"Well, that's going to be someone who will have a lot to do with you in the future." The Xuanji Daoist replied in a voice as calm as water.
"Oh? Is that friend or foe? Xi Zhen asked with a smile.
"What do you think? Is there a difference? Xuanji Dao Chang stroked his beard and asked with a smile.
Shen Xizhen suddenly realized and smiled.
"Ah Zhen, I have already taught you the first eighty moves of the eighty-one occult arts, and today I will teach you the last move." Xuanji Dao Chang looked at her and said with a smile on his face.
"Disciples sincerely ask for advice!" Xi Zhen hurriedly sat down.
Daoist Xuanji took a sip of yarrow tea, took out a palm-sized turtle shell and three copper coins from his pocket and put them on the table. Xi Zhen hurriedly approached to take a look, but saw that the back of the turtle shell was engraved with some ancient characters that she couldn't understand at all.
"He said: 'The spirit tortoise is the essence of the five-colored gods, and he can see the good and the bad.' You see, it looks like a sun from the front, and from the side it looks like the upper circle and the lower circle, and it looks like heaven and earth, so it is known as the god of the sun, a psychic thing, and can convey the meaning of heaven and earth, so people often use it to ask about the matter. ”
Daoist Xuanji said as he put the three copper coins into the turtle shell.
"It's such a god, so which one is more powerful than Qimen Dunjia Technique?" As soon as he heard that he could convey the meaning of heaven and earth, Xi Zhen immediately thought of the Qimen Dunjia technique he had learned before, and asked hurriedly.
"Each has its own power, Qimen Dunjia is used to seize the power of heaven and earth, but the turtle shell spirit occupies the meaning of heaven and earth, which is also related to heaven and earth, but their purpose is different."
"Understood."
"Concentrate on pranayama, exhale true qi, open the spiritual aura, and luck is clear." Xuanji Dao sat like a carved Buddha and said loudly. Xi Zhen immediately sat upright and pranayama as he prompted. After a while, she opened her spiritual aperture, and fused her divine consciousness with the qi of heaven and earth.
"Ah Zhen, recite the words you want to ask three times, then pick up the turtle shell and shake it three times, and then pour out the copper coins in the turtle shell." Xuanji Daoist said, Xi Zhen nodded and did so.
She asked very reverently, so her face was solemn.
"The front side of the copper coin is yang, and the reverse side is yin, and the yin and yang sides of the poured copper coin are recorded." Xuanji Taoist said.
Xizhen did as she was told.
Xuanji Daoist looked at the results, stroked his beard and pondered for a while, looked at Xizhen and said earnestly: "Ah Zhen, the stage has been set up, it's time for you to play, the six calamities in your floating life will also come one after another, and each of the calamities in it may kill you at any time, please be sure to cherish yourself and be cautious." ”
"I'll be careful."
"Good! Ah Zhen, no matter what, the next road is up to you. I won't say anything else, I'll teach you how to look at this hexagram. The Taoist Master of Xuanji then stretched out his hand and pointed to the yin and yang sides of the copper coin and explained them to her one by one.
The Taoist Master Xuanji explained very carefully, and she listened very carefully, and in less than half a cup of tea, she memorized all the knowledge and secrets involved in it.
"So, do you want to start from the north?" Xi Zhen looked at the hexagram and asked the Taoist chief.
"That's right, Ah Zhen is so smart! This hexagram also indicates that there is about to be a war in the north, does Ah Zhen see it? The Xuanji Daoist asked her again.
"I see."
"Sue me on the basis of your inference."
Xi Zhen pointed to the direction and position of the hexagram and explained it to him carefully.
After listening to Xi Zhen's explanation, a happy smile appeared on the face of the Xuanji Daoist: "Ah Zhen's level is higher than that of the teacher, and he can be accurate to a certain area." Ah Zhen, this war is the door that opens the door to the ups and downs of your life's journey, and from now on, your path will depend on you. ”
"The apprentice will follow the master's teachings carefully, and will take every step carefully."
"Also, divination for others is tantamount to revealing the secret of heaven and will react to yourself over time, so you must not use it to help the unvirtuous, otherwise it will cause you harm and easily invite disaster. Even if you help virtuous people, you should be temperate, and you should receive a corresponding reward, and take a part of it to do charity to ward off calamities, you see? Xuanji Dao Chang looked at her and said earnestly.
"The apprentice understood, and the apprentice promised the master: he would not use them lightly." Xizhen hurriedly made a solemn promise.
"Then, it's time for our master and apprentice to say goodbye!"
"What? The master ....... "I was overjoyed."
The Xuanji Taoist smiled and said, "The opportunity has come."
"So where are you going? Will we ever meet again? The news came as a surprise to her. Xizhen has been learning mystical arts with the Xuanji Taoist for ten years, and he has long regarded him as a relative in his heart, where is he willing to leave suddenly?
"As a teacher, I take the four seas as my home, so it is possible to go anywhere, and we will have the opportunity to meet, but there will not be many." Xuanji Daoist smiled.
"What does that mean?" I was puzzled.
"We'll have a few more chances to meet at most."
"Master, this ......."
"Ah Zhen, the fate between people has a beginning and an end, and our fate is deep enough."
"So, how do I get in touch with you after we separate?"
"There's no need to be contacted, I'll show up when I'm supposed to."
"Master......." Xizhen looked at the Xuanji Daoist, and he didn't know where to start with a thousand words.
She still remembers that ten years ago, when she first crossed over here, the original owner of her body was a little girl who couldn't speak at the age of five, Du Qiniang had found countless doctors and Jianghu Langzhong to treat her, but there was no way to find out why she couldn't speak, and naturally there was no way for her to regain her ability to speak. Until one day, the Taoist Master of Xuanji came to the Shen Mansion and said that he wanted to show everyone his appearance, so Du Qiniang warmly entertained him.
When he saw Shen Xizhen for the first time, his face was full of surprise, and he said to Du Qiniang: "Your daughter is extraordinary!" ”
Du Qiniang was shocked and hurriedly asked the reason, and the Taoist Master of Xuanji smiled and said: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, and you will naturally understand when she grows up." Now, there are still some demonic obstacles in her body, which need to be expelled with a little divine power. ”
With that, the Xuanji Daoist took a light breath towards Shen Xizhen's face.
Xi Zhen's small body then writhed violently a few times, and then screamed crisply: "Mother! ”
Seeing Xi Zhen's ability to speak, Du Qiniang cried with joy, and immediately knelt down to thank Xuanji Daoist, and wanted to give him a generous gift, but he politely refused.
When bidding farewell to the Taoist, the Taoist turned around and said to Du Qiniang earnestly: "Your girl has different talents, if she is taught well, she will definitely become a great weapon one day; If you don't teach it well, you can also be a generation of sinners! ”
Hearing the words of the Taoist chief, Du Qiniang was suddenly overjoyed and worried, and hurriedly asked him for a good plan.
The Taoist chief smiled indifferently and said: "Her temperament is like a wild horse, too much control will wear out her spirituality, and it will also increase her rebellious psychology, so try to cultivate it according to her temperament." With that, he disappeared in an instant.
"Auntie, don't worry, I can tell right from wrong, and I will definitely not go down the evil path." Five-year-old Xiao Xizhen put her chubby little hand in her mother's palm, and said with great certainty that Du Qiniang looked down at her well-behaved and cute, and nodded her head gently.
Since then, Xi Zhen often has the same dream at night, in which the Xuanji Daoist and the place where he lives will always appear very clearly, so she sent people to inquire everywhere, and finally inquired about the Xuanji Daoist's residence, which was exactly the same as the scene in her dream, and was only a few miles away from the Shen Mansion.
So, Xizhen persuaded his mother to let him go out to meet him, and soon got the approval of the Xuanji Taoist and became his disciple.
Knowing that the Taoist chief of Xuanji was willing to accept Xizhen as an apprentice, Du Qiniang was happy and worried, happy that her daughter was so studious and motivated, but she did not approve of her daughter learning occult arts and martial arts, because, in this dynasty, it is not necessarily a good thing for a woman to understand this, so this can't help but make Du Qiniang worry about her choice.
However, Du Qiniang did not forget what Daoist Jiji had told her, so although she was a little apprehensive in her heart, she finally allowed Xizhen to go to apprenticeship.
In this way, Shen Xizhen would go to the Xuanji Daoist to study for half a day every three days, and ten years passed in a blink of an eye.
In the first five years, she also enjoyed the service of being picked up and picked up, and in the next five years, because she learned strong martial arts, she could fly directly, so she no longer needed to be picked up and picked up. In addition, since she was already a young girl, in order to avoid suspicion, she no longer went out during the day, but flew up the mountain alone to meet the Taoist chief after nightfall.
Today, she is not only superb in the five arts of metaphysics, but also proficient in martial arts, Tao obscurity and the art of war, so she can seize the creation of heaven and earth, the law of the universe, and will dispatch troops and will fly the eaves and walls.
Master, now that I have just become a mature and am about to repay your nurturing kindness, you said you were leaving......
Xi Zhen looked at the Xuanji Daoist, his heart fluctuated, and tears of gratitude and reluctance came out of his eyes.
