The Taoist priest saw that Lu Jing's explanation had been completed, so he let Lu Jing go first, and asked the Taoist boy to lead the way, and several people walked hundreds of steps before coming to the thatched house.

Lu Jing glanced at the grass hut a few times and asked, "May I ask the Taoist, is this what the Taoists call the group scoop?" ”

The Taoist priest nodded and smiled: "Exactly, I don't want Your Excellency to know about it." ”

When cultivating immortals and learning the Tao, when they travel the world, if they stay in a certain place for many days, they will build a grass hut on the flat ground, like a nest shop, called the group scoop, so as to settle down and come and go conveniently.

Lu Jing said with a smile: "There is this record in the Taoist anecdotes in my later life, but I have never seen it, and now it is the first time I have seen the real thing." ”

The Taoist priest nodded and smiled, and then led Lu Jing into the group.

Lu Jing walked in and saw that there were no tables and chairs in it, there was a palm mat on the ground, which should be the place where he meditated, there was a gourd hanging on the wall, a stone furnace on the west wall, the charcoal fire was red, and the sencha was ripe.

The Taoist priest asked Lu Jing to sit down, then took off the gourd, reached in, took out two teacups, and poured tea on the stove.

After Lu Jing thanked him, he took it with both hands, and immediately smelled a burst of fragrance, and couldn't drink what tea he was after tasting a few sips, so he asked, "Dao Chief, is this tea?" It seems to be an ordinary fragrant tea, and I have never drunk it in my later life. ”

The Taoist priest said with a smile: "This tea is picked and made by the poor Dao in Luofu Mountain, and the poor Dao calls it 'floating tea'. ”

Lu Jing nodded thoughtfully and said: "Floating life is like a dream, for the sake of joy, this tea of the Taoist chief seems to have a deep meaning, and I haven't asked the Taoist chief for advice!" ”

The Taoist priest arched his hand and said: "Poor Dao Longhu Mountain Tong Yuanzi, I don't know what Your Excellency has to say about this tea of Poor Dao?" ”

Lu Jing knew that it was a test, so he muttered: "Throughout the ages, the world is just a leisurely passerby between heaven and earth, parasitic mayflies in heaven and earth, misty in the sea, life is short, the world is uncertain, like a dream, why bother, fame and fortune, and false fame behind you." ”

After hearing this, Tong Yuanzi praised: "Well said, there is another song trick in the poor road, please explain it!" ”

Lu Jing saw that he was not a charlatan, so he said respectfully: "Dao Chief, please speak!" ”

Tong Yuanzi laughed a few times and sang loudly:

After a hundred years of life, I will feel less, and when will the wind and dust be busy.

In order to make the institution rich and rich, the rich do not come, and the people are old.

You don't see, stay in the past to find the red pine, Tao Qianqian slowly returned to the east of the fence.

Contentment is the true secret, and success and regression are heroes.

Ande rode the whale to Danque, and rested with a shoulder of dust.

The jade flute and the golden tube of the sand tang boat, idle to the five lakes to get the autumn moon.

Another year has passed, and I advise you not to hesitate to sell wine money.

I don't see the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, only the tomb tree has no cold smoke.

Lu Jing thought in his heart: "Listening to his song, this Taoist priest seems to have come to persuade himself to abandon the world and devote himself to the Tao, but he doesn't know what the real purpose of his trip is, and what is his motive?" ”

Thinking of this, he followed Zhen Shiyin's method of solving the leprosy monk's "Good Song", and also made a poem:

There are several autumns in life, and in the blink of an eye, the aconitum is changed to a white head.

Calculate everything with your heart, and think about everything backwards.

Fame wants to paint Lingyan Pavilion, Shilin plans to write a book to get the moon building.

Where will the past and the present be, a pile of grass in the barren mound is secluded.

In the end, he only hated to gather much, and he was idle for a long time.

The young man is greedy for good color, and the old man comes to kill the worries of his temples.

What's the use of fighting for flies and worms, it's better to put on a song and go to rest.

See through and put down and taste tea, and sleep walking together.

Tong Yuanzi laughed and said in a loud voice: "Good solution, good solution, worthy of being a person of fate!" ”

just praised and sighed: "With your bone, if you can give up the red dust and cultivate the truth, Da Luo Jinxian can be expected." It's a pity that the vulgar fate has not been broken, and it can't be detached for the time being, so it can only be empty in vain, but it's a pity, it's a pity! ”

When Lu Jing heard this, he felt that it was different from his previous judgment, so he asked, "How does the Dao Chief break the bone phase of the late birth?" ”

Tong Yuanzi seemed to have expected him to ask this question, and said with a smile indifferently: "Cultivators pay attention to 'tidying up the entrance', and the same is true for poor people. ”

"A man has one body and two eyes; A bony body has a face. If you look at the common people, you will talk about their shapes, and if you look at the literati, you will look at their bones. ”

"God is clear and turbid, there is a debate of movement and stillness, and when Your Excellency is quiet, his eyes are clear and calm, and his true feelings are profound, but they are not revealed; When moving, the light in his eyes is exposed, sharp and sharp, waiting for the strings. The above two expressions are clear and clear, which shows that your Excellency is a loyal and upright person. ”

"There are nine noble bones, and the poor road will not be counted one by one, just on the bone appearance of Your Excellency, the heavenly court bone is plump and full, the occipital bone is full and exposed, and the sun bone rises in a straight line; The brow bone is sharp but not exposed, vaguely like a rhino horn; The nasal bones are like bamboo shoots, and they rise up; The cheekbones are powerful and powerful, but they are not sunken or exposed; The neck bone is flat and thick, and it is about exposed. ”

"If ordinary people can have three of these bones, they will make a difference, if they can have four, they will definitely be noble, and if they have five bones, they will be the pillars of the country. And your Excellency has seven kinds of nine noble bones, which is the appearance of great wealth and nobility. ”

"But those who have this wealth and dignity may not be able to bear this preciousness, especially if they are born in an ordinary home, they must experience the catastrophe of life and death, and they will have this life and enjoy this luck, but they will have no luck if they do not have a fate, and you have already survived the catastrophe of death, you can bear this wealth, and your Excellency in addition to being rich and noble, it seems that you have a fairy fate."

When Lu Jing heard this, he immediately felt that this person was unusual, he was indeed a person who came back from the dead, and heard the word 'fairy yuan', thinking that Daiyu's predecessor was the Zhuzhu fairy grass on the bank of the Ling River. ”

Tong Yuanzi pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "The poor road has traveled all over the world, but I have never heard of such a strange place, and there is no relevant record in the ancient books. Nonsense cliff, nonsense; Qinggang Peak, the root of love is crazy, and it seems that every sentence has a deep meaning. ”

Lu Jing saw that although he didn't know these places, he could understand this meaning, and he was a little admired in his heart, so he continued to ask: "Have you ever heard that the Taoist is above the hatred sky, in the middle of the sea, and the Spring Mountain Xiangxiang Cave is too illusory?" ”

Tong Yuanzi frowned when he heard this: "Away from hating the sky, the poor road naturally knows, it is the thirty-third heaven que, also known as the Great Red Heaven, Taiqing Heaven, and Huo Chitian, it is the dojo of Taiqing Moral Tianzun and Taishang Laojun, and Tushi Palace is here." ”

"It's just thirty-three layers of heaven, the highest from the hatred of the sky, how can there be a heavy heaven on it, not to mention what to say about the sea of sorrow, the spring mountain, the incense cave, the too illusory realm and other places, the poor road is unheard of, I don't know where your Excellency heard it?"

When Lu Jing heard this, he judged that he was not a group of people like the Vigilant Immortal Gu, the Vast Master, and the Misty Real Man, and he shouldn't have known about Daiyu and Jinling'er's twelve hairpins, so he was relieved, so he explained: "It's just that I saw it from an ancient book in my later life, and I have always had doubts, since the Taoist chief doesn't know, I think someone made it up." ”

Tong Yuanzi saw that what Lu Jing said was serious, and he was curious, so he asked what book it was.

Lu Jing originally wanted to say that it was "Dream of Red Mansions", but after thinking about it, he still forgot it, if he provoked anyone, it would be bad after all, so he casually made up a name and perfunctory it, and then changed the topic and said: "I don't know why I was born late when I saw it, so I said something about it?" ”

After Tong Yuanzi wrote down the title of the book that Lu Jing said, he explained: "Your Excellency's family is a world and career, although you don't know all about the poor road, but looking at Your Excellency's purple luck, you will know that your official luck is extremely prosperous, but your purple glow is gray, it can be seen that you have a catastrophe now, and this catastrophe is not trivial. ”

When Tong Yuanzi said this, he stopped.

Lu Jing couldn't figure out the depth of his Taoism, and asked with an attitude that he would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't: "What if you can't cross it?" ”

Tong Yuanzi sighed: "If you can't get through, not only will your career be hopeless, but you will even have the misfortune of swords and soldiers, and it will be difficult to break your family." ”

Lu Jing frowned when he heard this, and seeing that the consequences he said were so serious, whether it was true or not, he asked politely, "May I ask the chief if there is a way to save him?" ”

Tong Yuanzi shook off the dust and said: "This is the purpose of Poor Dao coming here, if you can survive this catastrophe, you will be to Jun Zemin, benefit the world, and there will be another great opportunity in the future, Poor Dao can't bear Your Excellency to miss the opportunity, I hereby tell you." ”

After hearing this, Lu Jing had some doubts in his heart, he had never had any great ambitions, and he had never thought of it to be an official to fulfill his father's last wish and to protect himself in the world, but he did not show it, but arched his hand and said: "Please give me advice." ”

Tong Yuanzi took out a note from his cuff, handed it to him, and said: "Poor Dao has a word to give, if you act according to this, you can be safe, and after a while, this calamity can be solved naturally and eliminated invisibly." ”

Lu Jing took a look and saw that it was written:

From south to north, it rises from the forest.

Four or three are long and short, and they are prosperous when they meet the water.

Don't get close to fake relatives, rebellious and rebellious.

Integrity and roundness, allegiance is through.

Lu Jing pondered carefully, from south to north, he should have said that he came to Beijing from Jiangnan; Because of the forest, this forest should be Lin Ruhai or Lin Daiyu; Don't get close to fake relatives, you should not get close to the Jia family; beheaded rebellion, death should refer to Wang Ziteng; Integrity and roundness, loyalty is through, it should be to adhere to justice, loyalty to the emperor can be prosperous, and the ending is happy; As for the length of four or three, it is not clear why it is prosperous when it meets water.

After analyzing, he was even more suspicious, what Tong Yuanzi said was his strategy all along, and he could be sure that this Tong Yuanzi had some real skills, but how deep his Taoism was, he couldn't judge it for the time being, and thought: "The catastrophe that Tong Yuanzi said is that the secret agreement between himself and Wang Ziteng is in danger of being discovered by the emperor." ”

After thinking for a long time, Lu Jing got up and saluted: "Thank you for the guidance of the immortal master in the late life, but the ordinary man in the late life has the eyes of a mortal man who does not know the immortal machine, so I ask the immortal master to understand the instructions." ”

Tong Yuanzi stroked his beard and said: "These few words are the key to solving your immediate misfortune, and it is also the situation of your career in the first half of your life. ”

Lu Jing saw that he didn't say anything, so he asked about the others: "I don't know what the career of the late students is?" What are the bumps? ”

Tong Yuanzi shook his head and said: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, but if you can survive this catastrophe, it will be smooth sailing in the future, and you will reach the peak after the age of fifty." As for what happens after the age of fifty, it depends on your choice. ”

Lu Jing bowed down and said, "What does the immortal master have to say, and ask for advice." ”

Tong Yuanzi sighed and said:

Half his life for the imperial court, meritorious service Jian Qing.

will be at the top of the top, and the full name of the body will be retired.

Flowers can be reborn, and people die like lights out.

Persuade the monarch to seek the avenue and seek eternal life with beauty.

Lu Jing thought about his words, and seemed to have said that he had exhausted his life, especially to bring beauty to seek immortality, which also meant something, but he didn't know too illusory to judge its details, could it be that there were other immortals in this world, so he asked: "Is there an immortal god in this world?" ”

Tong Yuanzi smiled: "If you believe it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it." ”

Lu Jing asked again: "Why has he never seen a miracle in his later life?" ”

Tong Yuanzi said: "If you haven't seen nature, you have no fate, don't say you, you are a poor Taoist who has cultivated the truth all his life, and has never seen a true immortal, and is still struggling to find it in the world." ”

Lu Jing was puzzled: "How did the Dao Chief's comments on Zai Xia come from?" ”

Tong Yuanzi nodded and said, "Naturally, it comes from a hexagram!" ”

Lu Jing asked this, and he didn't continue, the matter of the hexagram is really mysterious and mysterious, it is difficult to say, make up his mind to believe his words now, and then investigate his origin after going back, and then make plans, so he thanked and said: "Thank you for the guidance of the immortal master, I am grateful for the late life, and the later life will also respect the immortal master's instructions." ”

After speaking, he apologized and said: "Wansheng chatted with the immortal master for a long time, worried that his family was in a hurry, so he left later, and the immortal master asked for help." ”

Tong Yuanzi didn't keep it, so he sent Lu Jing out of the group scoop, and instructed: "Don't forget what Fang just said." ”

Lu Jing responded casually, and thanked him again, after not passing through Yuanzi, he went all the way to the wine shop, and met Wu Ze and Chen Ji without walking a few steps, knowing that they were worried about their safety, so they guarded here, so they beckoned the two to return together.

Tong Yuanzi looked at the back of Lu Jing leaving, and sighed in his heart, the hexagram showed that the opportunity for him to attain the Tao fell on this person, but he had no choice but to have great official luck, and there was still a deep dust relationship to come, so he had to wait for another twenty or thirty years.

Seeing Lu Jing's figure disappear, he thought in his heart that he still needed to help him get through this pass, so he beckoned Dao Tong to pack his things and enter the palace.
