Chapter 236: The Taoist of Wudang Mountain

Fang Xie looked back at the black boy Yan Yan who was smirking behind him as he walked, and then shook his head and sighed. In order to make this guy look more pleasing to the eye and normal, Fang Xie deliberately asked him to change into a new scholar's clothes, a small hat and soap boots in green clothes, and the whole body was very clean, but this couldn't hide the ugliness of people's black faces.

Fang Xie even wondered if this kid was some kind of goblin reincarnation.

Fortunately, the two large silkworms hanging under his nose disappeared under Fang Jie's coercive measures. But even so, when he walked into the martial arts academy with him, he still provoked bursts of ridicule. Although the male style is not strong in the Great Sui Emperor, whose scholar is not a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth? The scholar Fang Xie brought with him, not to mention that he has no copper coin relationship with Junqiao, that is, he is not beautiful and has a clear conscience.

Not long after Fang Xie walked into the Yanwu Academy, the news that he had brought a monkey to be a scholar spread in the Yanwu Academy.

The black boy was not shy at all, and whoever looked at him laughed at him, he looked at whoever laughed. It's okay not to laugh, but when you laugh, it scares the few female students in the martial arts academy.

met Yu Xiao halfway, and after the two of them exchanged a few words, Yu Xiao pulled him aside. After frowning at the black boy, he lowered his voice and asked, "Where did you find such a person to be a scholar?" If this guy comes out at night, he can scare people to death! ”

Fang Xie smiled wryly and said, "A fortune teller said that I have had bad luck recently, so I found such a person to take with me to ward off evil spirits...... But don't worry, he won't scare people when he comes out at night. ”

"Why?"

Yu Xiao asked.

Fang Xie said seriously: "Evening...... I can't see him......"

Yu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing: "It's the first time I've seen such a dark person, don't say it, if you run out bare-bottomed at night, you can stand in the corner without pretending, and no one can see it." ”

Fang Xie smiled and asked, "I heard that the general is going to lead his troops out soon?" ”

Yu Xiao nodded and said: "Your Majesty's will has come down, it is set for February 12, and I don't know what day it is, I deliberately looked at the yellow calendar, but there is nothing special." Not good, not bad. However, my father didn't believe in this, and he had never believed in any ghosts and gods for so many years. ”

"There are no ghosts and gods, what do you believe in them."

Fang explained: "It would be good if this battle was fought later, and you and I could go out with the general." With you taking care of me, I can't say that I can make some merit and come back. ”

Yu Xiao looked around at no one, and said in a low voice: "This battle may not be over so soon, when I talked to my father two days ago, my father also said that if the Great Sui firmly guards the Mandu Banner, at least until the Great Wall is built." If the Great Wall built around the Mandu Banner is not completed, the offensive of the Mengyuan people will not stop for a day. But how easy is it to build the Great Wall in the wilderness of the northwest? Although the Ministry of Industry has recruited a large number of craftsmen to prepare for the northwest, there is no shortage of stone and timber on the Wolf Milk Mountain...... But how could the people of Mengyuan watch our people build the Great Wall? ”

Fang Xie hummed and said, "I hope that this battle will be won as soon as possible, and I look forward to waiting until we finish our studies so that we can go to the northwest to make meritorious contributions...... It's a contradiction. ”

Yu Xiao smiled and said: "There is no credit to worry about, if this war can be completed within two years, it will be a really good result." In the future, it is imperative for the imperial court to allocate a large army to defend the northwest, and the Mengyuan people have suffered such a big loss, how can they easily admit defeat? ”

Fang Xie nodded and said, "I can't say that after the Great Wall is built, the Mengyuan people will soon learn how to fight tough battles." ”

The two of them said a few more words about the war in the northwest, and Yu Xiao said goodbye and left. Fang Xie took the black boy all the way to the Yanwu Courtyard, and when he was about to reach the library, he met Xie Fuyao. Xie Fuyao's expression was the same as Yu Xiao when he saw the black boy, and such an elegant and calm person couldn't help but grin in surprise.

"Have you gone out to subdue demons and eliminate demons in the past two days?"

Xie Fuyao asked him, "Is this one captured from Half Moon Mountain...... Person? If he lives on Half Moon Mountain, then the reason why there are no living beasts in Half Moon Mountain can be found out. ”

"What a bad mouth!"

Fang explained to him and said, "Don't you think it's safe to have such a person by your side?" ”

Xie Fu shook his laughter: "Yes, if this person sticks it on the door of his house, the ghosts and gods will be afraid." ”

Fang Xie didn't want to continue the discussion on the appearance of the black boy, so he smiled and asked, "Why haven't you been in the martial arts academy in the past two days?" I've been looking in your yard a few times, but you're not there. ”

Xie Fuyao said in a low voice: "Tell you, but you are not allowed to tell others." ”

Fang Xie squinted his eyes and asked, "When the flower thief went?" ”

Xie Fuyao smiled and scolded: "Fart...... The benefactor who passed on my cultivation arrived in Chang'an City, do you think I should go to greet him? It was his first time in the imperial capital, and he was not familiar with any place, so I helped settle down. I accompanied a few more scenery, and I returned to the martial arts academy early this morning. ”

"The disciple of Zhang Zhenren of Wudang Mountain has come to the imperial capital?"

Fang Xie was stunned, and he didn't know why he tightened up.

"Well, my senior brother has passed on the art on behalf of the teacher, and my cultivation has been his guidance for so many years. Speaking of which, the senior brother is more like a strict teacher. A few days ago, I got news that my senior brother was about to arrive in Chang'an City, so I hurriedly went out to book a place to live, and went out of Chang'an City to greet me. ”

"Your senior brother came by himself?"

Fang asked.

"No, there are a few others, but I don't know any of them."

Xie Fuyao smiled and said: "My Wudang heir is far more low-key than the Taoist of Qingle Mountain, and it stands to reason that my senior brother and the red-robed great priest of Qingle Mountain are people of the same level. But I don't have the position of red-robed chief priest in Wudang, and my senior brother's robe is not much different from that worn by my disciples. Even if you walk on the street, you will be regarded as an ordinary Taoist, where would you guess that it would be Wudang Mountain Zhang Zhenren. ”

Fang Xie snorted, but what he thought in his heart was that the Taoists of Qingle Mountain should have returned to the One Qi Sect a long time ago, after all, the examination of the Yanwu Academy had been completed in the early summer of last year. Xiao Zhenren and Hedao have been living in Chang'an City for eight or nine months longer, why don't they go back? They haven't left yet, and the Taoists of Wudang Mountain are here again, why is this?

Fang Xie didn't believe it, the people of Wudang Mountain were just here to play.

……

……

Chang'an City is the first male city in the world, 100 miles long and wide. This is the most prosperous place in the Great Sui, and the number of people who come and go is incalculable. And the Great Sui admired Taoism, so it was common to see Taoist disciples in gray clothes and swords in Chang'an City. And Taoism, there is a saying on the rivers and lakes called East and West Authenticity, which is all over the world.

The meaning of this sentence is that there are countless Taoist temples in the entire Great Sui. But when it comes to Taoist authenticity, it can only be the Qingle Mountain One Qi View in the east, and the Wudang Mountain Sanqing View in the west.

Xiao Zhenren was named the leader of the Taoist Sect in the world by the emperor, and in terms of fame, he naturally had a greater view of one qi. And the people of the world value the orthodox unity theory the most, since the concept of one qi is the holy place of Taoism designated by the emperor, then it is naturally the most orthodox school of the concept of one qi. Speaking of which, Wudang Mountain Sanqingguan seems to be a step lower.

But Wudang Zhang Zhenren's fame is not inferior to Xiao Zhenren.

Some people even said that if it weren't for Xiao Zhenren, he would have known His Majesty before he ascended the throne. It is said that Zhang Zhenren has lived for more than a hundred years, and there are five disciples under him, known as the Wudang Five Immortals. This immortal character is the world's honorific title for Taoist practitioners, and the people often call Taoists with the honorific title of immortal chief. But if you can be put into a fairy character on the rivers and lakes, it is naturally not so easy.

Zhang Zhenren has not walked down the mountain since he was 90 years old. The daily affairs of Wudang Mountain are also handed over to the eldest disciple Song Hye Kyo. Song Hye Kyo, the head of Wudang Mountain, is in her fifties and is highly respected in Wudang Mountain. His words have absolute authority in Wudang Mountain as much as Zhang Zhenren's words.

Zhang Zhenren's second disciple is Zhang Huiyi, the third disciple Li Huishu, the fourth disciple **Zheng, and the fifth disciple **Qing.

Zhang Zhenren's descendants are only these five people, and there are thousands of Wudang Taoists, all of whom are the disciples and grandchildren of these five people. In terms of scale, the Sanqing View of Wudang Mountain is larger than the One Qi View of Qingle Mountain. Moreover, these three Qingguan already existed in the previous dynasty, and it has a long history than the one qi view.

The one who taught Xie Fuyao to cultivate martial arts was Zhang Zhenren's fourth disciple. The temperament of this person is the same as the overall temperament of Wudang Mountain, low-key and modest. This time, he came all the way from Wudang Mountain to Chang'an, and no one in the government knew about it.

Before arriving in Chang'an, he only sent someone to inform Xie Fuyao, who was studying in the Yanwu Academy. Xie Fuyao was responsible for arranging everything, and all the food, drink, housing and transportation were handed over to this named disciple. It stands to reason that Xie Fuyao should be regarded as Zhang Zhenren's closed disciple, but he has only met Zhang Zhenren twice. After Zhang Zhenren's ninetieth birthday, he never went down the mountain again.

Xie Fuyao arranged a group of six people from Wudang Mountain in the most famous Shunde Inn in Chang'an City, which is a century-old shop. The store is large and clean, but the prices are staggering. The people who live here are generally wealthy businessmen who come to Chang'an from all over the world, and ordinary people can't afford to spend here.

But for Xie Fuyao, this is really nothing. Although the Jiangnan Xie family has gradually declined, it refers to its status in the imperial court. Speaking of wealth, even if it can't compare to Wu Yiyi, it is enough to rank in the top five rich families in the entire Great Sui.

** Looks like he is in his thirties and has a gentle face. He practiced with Zhang Zhenren at the age of seven, and it has been thirty years. At that time, Mo Wanwu, the professor of the Yanwu Academy, believed that he was good at cultivation, and went to Wudang Mountain to invite Zhang Zhenren to fight. Zhang Zhenren did not think he was rude, but sent a ** representative teacher to face the battle.

** is using the four elephant fingering to break the trick of ink all things, and ink all things go away in shame.

After so many years, the cultivation of ** is more pure and majestic. Different from the Taoists of Qingle Mountain, they basically don't ask about the rivers and lakes. There are many Taoists in Wudang Mountain, who walk in the rivers and lakes and act chivalrous and righteous. Therefore, the respect of the people in the rivers and lakes for Wudang Mountain is actually above the concept of one qi.

**There are six people, and in addition to him, there is a young Taoist boy. There were also three people who were wearing ordinary disciple clothes, and they were the three disciples with the best cultivation in his vein. The other one is an old Taoist who looks at least seventy or eighty years old, and the clothes on his body are the same as those of ** Zheng, obviously a figure equivalent to the identity of the Wudang Five Immortals, but he is so old, and he can never be a disciple of Zhang Zhenren.

And judging from the respectful attitude towards him, the status of this old Taoist seems to be not low.

"Huizheng, how long are we going to live in Chang'an City?"

The trembling old Taoist asked after sitting down in the room.

** After thinking about it, he replied: "I don't know yet, the master didn't say it explicitly." ”

"Alas......"

The old Taoist sighed and said, "I'm so old, and I have to come all the way to the imperial capital." If you stay longer, you can't guarantee that you won't throw a handful of old bones here. If you die, you can't be buried on Wudang Mountain, and your heart is sour when you think about it. If it weren't for your master, I would never have come down the mountain. ”

"Uncle Shi...... You're so the bones, how can you say these things. ”

Said with a smile.

"Tough?"

The old Taoist pouted and said, "I'm almost ninety years old!" Again...... Who doesn't know that the imperial capital is the land of the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger? Over here...... I really don't want to come. ”
