Two days later, Liu Yuanjing and others returned to the Xi'an on the top of Zhurong Peak in Hengshan.

The main hall in the nunnery is not large, only equivalent to the size of the living room of an ordinary person's house, and the middle is enshrined in the portrait of the Yuan Shi Tianzun respected by the Shangqing faction, and the portraits of the ancestors of the Shangqing Dynasty are hung on both sides.

Underneath is an offering table covered with a yellow tablecloth with a Bagua pattern, and candles and offerings are placed.

Liu Yuanjing sat on the chair next to the offering table, Lu Zhizhen and other naturalized disciples sat on both sides, and dozens of Taoist children stood.

The two boys knelt in front of the statue of the Celestial Venerable, who had already worshiped the statue of the Celestial Venerable and the statue of the Patriarch, and were performing the worship ceremony.

Deng Shaochong, who was a little older, was thirteen years old, he was Deng Yuanqi's orphan, and he was also taken back to Hengshan by Liu Yuanjing.

The youngest is Guo Hong, although his illness has been cured, his whole body is covered with lightning-like silver patterns, and he can't see his original appearance at all.

According to Wei Zhou, this is due to the fact that the cure is too urgent, and it will slowly subside when it grows up in the future.

And there is another problem, that is, the soul loss is not cured, I don't remember what I did in the past, and other aspects are normal.

Liu Yuanjing's face was a little pale, and when the two of them had finished saluting, he pointed to the disciples present on the side and said, "This is your senior brother Lu Zhizhen, second senior brother Zhao Zhongxian, third senior brother Wang Yuanshang, and fourth senior brother Tian Jingxuan.

"The four of them are registered Taoist priests, there were originally seven Taoist priests in Xi'an, and Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Cao were feathered one after another in the year I went to Chang'an, so now there are two vacancies in the view.

"The others are all unnaturalized Taoist scholars, plus the two of you, there are sixty-seven people in total, and in the next three to five years, two Taoist priests will be selected from among you. Cao Shouzhen, you will be responsible for taking care of the two juniors in the future, Deng Shaochong is older, and Erlang ......"

Liu Yuanjing looked at the boy whose face was covered with telegrams, and paused for a moment before asking: "His name is Guo Shangzao, you all listen well, from today Guo Shangzao is my closed disciple, he is the son of my old friend, you have to treat each other well, if you let me know who has bad intentions, you will not be forgiven." ”

After that, he dismissed a group of disciples and servants, and returned to his room with the boy, Lu Zhizhen, Deng Shaochong, and Cao Shouzhen, a personal Taoist boy.

Lu Zhizhen, Cao Shouzhen, and Deng Shaochong returned from Chang'an with Liu Yuanjing, and the others stayed in Hengshan to look after their families.

Cao Shouzhen is thin and small, very clever, and is the son of Yuhua's "Senior Brother Cao", who was taken by Liu Yuanjing as a Taoist boy.

When his father died, Cao Shouzhen was still in Chang'an, and he didn't have time to see the last face, so he was sad for a long time.

Liu Yuanjing sat on the main seat, and the four disciples stood on the side.

Lu, Cao, and Deng had long known the boy's origins, so they naturally knew what the master was going to do, so they all waited quietly.

Liu Yuanjing called the boy to his side, pondered for a moment before saying: "I told you last time, you are the fourth grandson of Guo Ziyi, the king of Fenyang, your real name is Guo Hongzheng, and your father Guo Zhongwen is the general of Jinwu in the previous dynasty and the uncle of the first emperor Huichang Tianzi. ”

"Guo Hong......"

Liu Yuanjing shook his head, this kid is so serious.

"Guo Hong, Guo Hong,...... Your father Guo Zhongwen also has an identity, which is the leader of the sect, and the help is the help of the help. As for the origin of the Fujiao...... "Liu Yuanjing was a little tired, nodded at Lu Zhizhen, and asked him to continue.

Lu Zhizhen cleared his throat, saluted his master, straightened his waist and said to Guo Hong and Deng Shaochong: "If you want to talk about this Fujiao, you have to mention Xiaoyao Mountain, that is, the West Mountain of Hongzhou (Nanchang, Jiangxi). Do you two know who the three great heavenly masters in my Dao Sect are? ”

Guo Hong shook his head, his face blank.

"Zhang Daoling, Zhang Tianshi, Ge Xuange, Xu Xun, Xu Tianshi." Deng Shaochong looks average, but his voice is very crisp.

"Yes, five hundred years ago, Xu Tianshi was a native of Hongzhou, also known as Xu Zhenjun, he founded the Taishang Lingbao Pure Ming Method, and built a Taiji view in Hongzhou (Nanchang) Xiaoyao Mountain, and the plaque is the true realm of Jingming, with the purpose of Jingming loyalty and filial piety, and since then there has been a Jingming Dao.

It is said that there were hundreds of Taoist priests in Xiaoyao Mountain at that time, headed by Xu Xun, Wu Meng and other twelve people, known as the Twelve True Monarchs.

Xu Tianshi later ascended to the house and took his family of more than 40 people to become immortals together, so there was an allusion to the ascension of a chicken dog to heaven.

"During the reign of Gaozong of this dynasty, there was a real person in Jiangxi Hu Huichao who claimed to have studied under Xu Zhenjun and Wu Meng, and was taught the way of Yansheng refining and refining the super three yuan and nine eras, which can summon the gods, drive thunderstorms, and spread the law of spiritual treasure and purification, so as to establish a support religion and recruit disciples.

Sect Master Hu returned to Hongzhou Xishan (Xiaoyao Mountain) to visit the curtain and wrote "The Biography of the Twelve True Monarchs of Hongzhou Xishan", which became a canon for supporting the religion and establishing the religion.

More than ten years ago, Huayang Zhenren Shi Beiwu admired the sages, lived in seclusion in Xiaoyao Mountain, wrote "The True Story of the Xishan Immortals", and became the leader of the sect at that time.

Later, the Empress Dowager Guo ordered the father of Guo's junior brother to worship under the Huayang Zhenren Sect, and to unify the world's Taoism with Jiangxi Fujiao as the mainstay, support the Tang Dynasty, and help the Son of Heaven to prosper and destroy the Buddha. At that time, Coats from all over the country gathered in Chang'an, and the grand occasion was unprecedented. ”

Empress Dowager Guo is Tang Xianzong's concubine, Guo Zhongwen's aunt, and Guo Hong's aunt.

Since Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, the Son of Heaven family has not set up a queen, the harem is respected by the concubine, this Guo Guifei is also a strange person, she is Guo Ziyi's granddaughter, Tang Xianzong's wife, the son is Tang Muzong, the grandson is Tang Jingzong (eldest son), Tang Wenzong (second son), Tang Wuzong (fifth son), made a queen, a queen mother and three dynasties empress dowager.

In the past 40 years, the Guo family has leaned towards the government and the opposition, and the children of the Guo family have taken turns to be the generals of Jinwu, and have completely mastered the forbidden army such as Jinwuwei.

The eldest son of heaven (Tang Xuanzong), who had just ascended the throne, was not the son of Tang Wuzong, but the thirteenth son of Tang Xianzong, whose mother Zheng was originally Guo Guifei's slave, and was later favored by Tang Xianzong, and was named a beauty after giving birth to a child.

Wuzong died violently in March, and the emperor of Dazhong received the support of the eunuchs, came to power through a palace coup, and began to attack the Guo family!

Lu Zhizhen looked at Deng Shaochong, saw that his eyes suddenly turned red, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and stood with his head down, and then looked at Guo Hong, who was stupid, sighed and continued:

"There are two Dharma protectors on the left and right under the command of Sect Master Guo, Zhao Guizhen on the left and Xuanyuan Ji on the right. Master, together with the Tiantai Five Immortal Ye Zangzhi, Zuo Yuanze, Liu Chujing, Ying Yijie, Shen Guanwai, and Luofu Mountain Deng Yuanqi, are collectively known as the Seven Truths, and they are at the level of elders. In addition, there are dozens of masters gathered from all over the world.

At that time, the major event in the religion was the destruction of the Buddha, but the leader of the sect died violently in the second year of Huichang (842), and the cause of death is still a mystery to this day. According to the will of the Empress Dowager, his fifth brother Guo Zhonggong succeeded him as the head of the sect, but Guo Zhonggong also died suddenly in the fourth year of Huichang (844).

After that, the Fujiao established Guo Xingzhang as the young master, in fact, led by the Empress Dowager herself, when the destruction of the Buddha has been launched, the world Buddhism is empty, those so-called monks hide in Tibet, or make up Confucianism, or avoid the wilderness, panic all day long.

"But in March of this year (866), the first emperor Xu, Emperor Dazhong succeeded to the throne, executed Zhao Shi Uncle Zu and Luofu Deng Shi Shu including twelve of our masters, I heard that he was going to start restoring Buddhism, my Daomen and Buddhism have already formed a deep enmity, and now the situation is like fire and water, Guo Senior Brother in my Hengshan matter has leaked the news, in the future Buddhism is likely to come to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

"On the day of the palace change, it was rumored in the sect that Xuanyuan Ji rebelled, and Senior Brother Guo was robbed by him, and the master and several senior brothers of Tiantai Mountain chased after him day and night, and finally caught up in Huayin, but the junior brother was accidentally struck by lightning, and became what he is now, and he lost his memory!"

Guo Zhongwen and others are also historical figures, but they don't count because they didn't appear.
