After the small year, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve soon, and Wang Fugui and his family are thinking about letting Wang Da Hammer bring some New Year goods to visit his two masters.

Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng accepted Wang Dazhui as an apprentice, and also saved his life, taught him valuable cultivation methods, and sent something to visit them to express their hearts, which is the duty of an apprentice.

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, at noon, Wang Dazhui, Uncle Bao and Fan Fan took several carts of New Year's goods and sent them to Zhongnan Mountain, where Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were located.

Speaking of Zhongnan Mountain, some people may not be familiar with it. I'm going to talk to you a little bit about it here.

Zhongnan Mountain is one of the birthplaces of Taoism, also known as Taiyi Mountain, Dilung Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain, Zhounan Mountain, referred to as Nanshan, is a section of the Qinling Mountains, starting from Meixian County in Shaanxi Province in the west, reaching Lantian County in Chang'an in the east, thousands of peaks are stacked on top of each other, the scenery is beautiful, known as "the fairy capital", "the crown of the cave sky" and "the first blessed land in the world". The main peak is located in Chang'an District, with an altitude of 2,604 meters.

Couplet: "Blessing is like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and the longevity is greater than the old pine of Nanshan" refers to this mountain.

Taibai Mountain, the main peak of Zhongnan Mountain, is rich in medicinal materials, known as the "Kingdom of Herbal Medicine", and the ballad of "Taiyi Mountain, full of treasures, no worries if you are sick, go up the mountain and pull the grass" in the local area. Taiyi Mountain black paste is produced here.

The terrain of Zhongnan Mountain is dangerous, the road is rugged, there are five large valleys, more than 100 small valleys, and hundreds of miles in a row.

"Zuo Biography" called Zhongnan Mountain "the danger of Kyushu", and "Historical Records" said that Qinling was "the obstacle of the world".

Having said that, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng cultivated in Zhongnan Mountain, so it can be said that they chose a very good place.

The place has a beautiful view, fresh air, not far from the palace, and very clean, a good place to get quiet.

When they arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Wang Dazhui asked Fan Fan and Uncle Bao to keep the gifts, and he went up to find Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng first.

In the end, it is a Taoist temple enshrined by the royal family, and there is still an endless stream of people who come to make incense and make wishes, especially at the end of the year, there are more people who come to make wishes and pray for blessings.

The observation tower on Zhongnan Mountain has a long history, it is rumored that when King Chukang, astronomical astrologer Yin Xi was the order of Hangu Guanguan, and the grass was built in Zhongnan Mountain, and the grass was climbed every day to watch the stars and look at the air. One day, he suddenly saw the purple qi coming from the east and the auspicious star going west, and he had a premonition that there would be a saint passing through this pass, so he waited for the pass. Soon an old man dressed in colorful clouds and rode a green ox to arrive, which turned out to be Lao Tzu's westward journey into Qin. Yin Xi hurriedly invited Lao Tzu to Louguan, performed the disciple ceremony, and invited him to lecture and write books. Lao Tzu taught Yin Xi 5,000 words of the Tao Te Ching on the high post in the south of the building, and then drifted away. Legend has it that the scripture platform of today's Louguan Platform is the place where Lao Tzu preached. After the emergence of Taoism, Lao Tzu was respected as the ancestor of Taoism, Yin Xi was the true person of Wenshi, and the Tao Te Ching was regarded as the fundamental classic.

As a result, Louguan has become "the land of the world's Daolin Zhangben". For the majesty of Zhongnan Mountain, Zhang Heng's "Xijing Fu" has a description: "Zhongnan Mountain, the pulse of Kunlun, the tail of Songyue, Zhong Lingyuxiu, magnificent and wonderful, as the south screen of the capital, is the giant obstacle of Yongliang." Among them, the plate is far away, the deep and strict valley cannot be explored, there is something in the guan, and it will be fought for in the end?

There are two ancient roads in Zhongnan Mountain: one is the Meridian Road, which is the main road from Xi'an to Hanzhong and Sichuan. The second is Wuguan Road, which is the avenue of Xi'an to do business with Luotong Chu and Henan.

In the twenty-eighth year of Qin Shi Huang, "from Nanjun to Wuguan", this is the way to go.

It is worth mentioning that Lao Tzu, the ancestor of Taoism, once preached at the Zhongnan Mountain Pulpit and handed down the stone tablet of the Tao Te Ching.

Lao Tzu's only personal disciple, Wen Shi Zhenren - Yin Xi. It was also used to observe the celestial phenomena in Zhongnan Mountain, and was called the grass view building. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once ordered someone to build the Wenshi Temple for Yin Xi.

Moreover, according to the records of the wild history, Jiang Ziya, the father of the Western Zhou Dynasty, also stayed in Zhongnan Mountain. Before Jiang Ziya went out of the mountain, he lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, waiting for virtuous people.

It is said that the story of the wish taking the bait happened here.

The record of Jungnan Mountain can be said to go back to a long time.

"Yu Gong": It is said that the end of the south Yongzhou, the end of the south to enjoy things.

"Poetry Biography": The famous mountain of Zhou is called Zhongnan.

Dongfang Shuo: Nanshan, the obstacle of the world. There is Jianghuai in the south, there is Hewei in the north, and its land is from the east of Helong, west of Shangluo, and the soil is fertile.

"Book of Han": Nanshan produces jade, gold, silver, copper, and iron materials, which are given by hundreds of workers and relied on by all people. There are also Kang, rice, pear, chestnut, mulberry, hemp, bamboo arrows, soil should be ginger taro, and the water is full of frogs and fish. The poor can be fed by others, and there is no worry about hunger and cold. Therefore, between the soup and the pickaxe, it is called soil plaster.

"One Unification Chronicles": Taiyi Mountain, twenty miles southwest of the end. Mistake. Cover the end of the south vein from Kunlun, the tail title Songyue, Zhong Lingyu Xiu, magnificent and wonderful, as the south screen of the capital, for the giant barrier of Yongliang. Among them, the coil is far away, and the deep rocks and valleys are not to be investigated. There is something in the relationship, and it is also a risk to fight for in the end.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Li Tang clan worshiped Laozi, the ancestor of Taoism, as the holy ancestor, and vigorously respected Taoism, especially because the Louguan Taoist Qihui had sponsored Li Yuan's uprising, so after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, he favored Louguan Dao. At the beginning of Wude (618-626), a large-scale Zongsheng Palace was built.

At this time, the main buildings have Wenshi, Sanqing, Xuanmen and other ancestral halls, as well as Ziyun Yanqing Building and Jingyang Building, etc., which have become the center of the ancient building view.

Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng lived in the courtyard behind the Sanqing Palace, so Wang Dazhui went straight to the Sanqing Palace when he arrived at Zhongnan Mountain.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at the door of the main hall, a little Taoist boy greeted him, bowed slightly towards Wang Dazhui, made a gesture commonly used by Taoists to meet, and then asked: "Dare to ask the donor, but Wang Dazhu?" ”

Wang Dazhui looked at the little Taoist boy in front of him, and was slightly stunned, thinking how could he know that his name was Wang Dazhui, and he had never seen him.

Although Wang Da Hammer was very confused, he still nodded quickly, and hugged his fist at the other party with a smile on his face, "Yes, I am Wang Da Hammer, dare to ask how to recognize me at a glance?" ”

Xiaodao was amused, and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm powerful, it's the two immortals who are powerful, they told me to wait for you here early in the morning, and said a boy about six years old, and also said your appearance and dress." ”

When Wang Dazhui heard this, his heart couldn't help but suddenly open up, and at the same time, he admired the Taoism of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng even more. I didn't expect them to calculate that they would come today.

Thinking about the reason, Wang Dazhui scratched his head and smiled, and said, "I see, the kid is stupid, thank you for your doubts, I specially brought some New Year's goods to the two masters today, I don't know where they are now?" ”

Xiao Daotong was dressed in a gray robe, his hair was tied up, his face was ruddy, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he looked very aura.

"Senior Brother Sledgehammer, you can call me Senior Brother Tingyu, don't call me the elder again, otherwise the master will punish me for sweeping the mountain road if he knows it." The little Taoist priest said while walking towards the backyard with Wang Dazhu.

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Tingyu, and I have really admired the name for a long time." Wang Dazhui casually said the lines on TV in later generations.

Fortunately, Xiaodao Tong Qingfeng didn't ask rhetorically, have you really admired my name for a long time?

Xiao Daotong listened to Wang Dazhu's words, and thought that this little junior brother was really interesting to speak, obviously he didn't know who I was, and he said that he had admired the name for a long time, and it seemed that he had been in the world for a long time, and he had learned a lot of nonsense.
