Chapter 084: Purifying Heart Mantra
Zhang Laodao heard the meaning of Xu Xian's words, that is, he wanted to continue to associate with demons without worrying about poisoning.
Looking at Xu Xian's humble and consultative appearance, Zhang Laodao was so angry that he glared and blew his beard and said, "Pedent boy, you still don't give up?" It's a monster, don't be obsessed! ”
"It turns out that the old man can't help it. It's okay, the kid is just curious. Xu Xian made a relaxed appearance and said, "After all, if a scholar doesn't ask about gods and ghosts, it is really not appropriate to delve into ......."
"Do you want to be angry with the old way, you pedantic boy?" Zhang Laodao couldn't listen to anything that didn't ask about gods and ghosts, so he was so angry that he shouted, "Hypocrite! Confucianism is a big and small hypocrite! ”
Xu Xian said solemnly: "Old man, although you are old, you can scold the boy, but you can't insult the Confucian. Confucianism takes the education of the common people in the world as its own responsibility, the disciples are all over the world, the society is safe, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and our Confucianism is indispensable. ”
Zhang Laodao was stunned, his face turned red, and he wanted to refute, but then he was deflated and said: "It's the old Dao that is unobstructed, and Confucianism does have great merits." ”
Xu Xian didn't expect Zhang Laodao to admit his mistake directly, and left his seat and bowed his hand: "The old man is broad-minded, and the boy is obedient." ”
"Okay, don't give Lao Dao your red tape, aren't you tired." Zhang Laodao waved his hand impatiently, but he still had a good impression of the pedantic boy in front of him.
Xu Xian smiled slightly and sat back in his chair.
Zhang Laodao pondered for a moment and said: "Since ancient times, humans and demons cannot fall in love, otherwise they will be calamitized. Pedant boy, this is no joke. ”
"Huh." Xu Xian smiled lightly, the wind was light, and he looked like he didn't know what you were talking about.
Since the old Taoist priest has no solution, he can't admit it. Although they know each other, whether they admit it in person is another matter.
Zhang Laodao looked angry and said, "It's your life, can't you just be careful?" ”
"Scholars don't ask about gods and ghosts." Xu Xian is naturally authentic.
At this time, Zhang Lao Dao completely exploded, jumped up, and roared: "You pedantic boy, if you were the disciple and grandson of Lao Dao, Lao Dao would have sent you to see the ancestor of Sanqing Dao with a slap!" ”
Xu Xian stood up and persuaded him: "Old man, your anger hurts your body, you can dissipate your anger." ”
Zhang Laodao glanced at Xu Xian, and when he saw Xu Xian's smiling appearance, he was not very annoyed, so he had to sit down again angrily.
"That's it, if you want to die, the old way can't stop it." Zhang Lao Dao said with a look of abandonment, "Meeting is fate, Lao Dao will teach you a heart purification mantra." Just say it twice, and you won't blame yourself for not being talented. ”
"Thank you, old man." Xu Xian immediately thanked him.
He knew that the old Taoist priest would not be untargeted, and the heart purification mantra in the old Taoist's mouth might not be able to dissolve the poisoning, but at least it could alleviate it.
I saw Zhang Laodao pinching a handprint that Xu Xian had never seen before, and Xu Xian hurriedly learned to pinch the handprint.
After Xu Xian pinched the handprint of the Purifying Heart Mantra with a gourd, Zhang Laodao's lips moved, and he had words.
The voice was very small, but it could be heard by Xu Xian, but the speed of chanting the mantra was too fast.
After a while, Zhang Laodao finished reciting the mantra and asked Xu Xiandao, "Pedant boy, did you hear clearly?" ”
"I can hear you, but you're always reading too fast, can you slow down?" Xu Xian said truthfully.
Zhang Laodao shook his head and said, "No." It must be read at this speed, and even the old Tao cannot be pronounced at a slow speed. ”
"Recite the old way again, whether you can remember it or not, it depends on your creation." The old Tao said again, pinched the handprint again, his lips moved, and he recited the mantra of purifying his heart.
This time, Xu Xian did not listen carefully, but followed the old Dao, and his voice was only half a beat slower than the old Dao.
Zhang Laodao finished reading, and Xu Xian also finished reading.
"Pedant boy, count yourself a little edified." Zhang Laodao's eyes were praised.
Xu Xian stood up and bowed to Zhang Laodao: "Thank you for the old man's art." ”
Zhang Laodao waved his hand indifferently, and sighed a little: "This world is unfair, and the talents in the world are monopolized by Confucianism." ”
After that, he stood up, walked to the window, opened the window, turned his head and said, "The old way is also gone." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Xu Xian's reaction, he jumped out of the window.
Although Bianjing is big, but after all, it is the capital, every inch of land is expensive, the inn is a three-story house, Xu Xian's guest room is on the third floor, that is, Zhang Laodao jumped out directly from the third floor.
Xu Xian was worried about Zhang Laodao, and rushed to the window to look down, where was Zhang Laodao's figure.
"He's a tall man." At the end, Xu Xian said a word, then closed the window, turned around and walked to the bed, sat cross-legged on the bed, pinched the handprint, and practiced the heart purification mantra he had just learned.
After practicing three or five times in a row, and making sure that he remembered it, Xu Xian got out of bed and went out to find Huang Chong.
Huang Chong saw Xu Xian and asked nervously, "Xu Xian, where is that old liar?" You won't be fooled by him, will you? ”
"He's gone." Xu Xian said lightly.
Then, he added: "You are right, the heart of defense is indispensable. In this unfamiliar capital, we must be cautious and never reveal any of our circumstances to others, especially our roots. ”
"Not bad!" Huang Chongji agreed, "It's best not to let people know their names." If the thieves don't understand us, they don't dare to do it easily. ”
"I'm going to report to the Guozijian tomorrow, and the Yellow Dart Master is going home too, right?" Xu Xian said.
In order to prevent Zhang Laodao from being overzealous and going to Qiantang County through Huang Chong to subdue demons and eliminate demons, he decided to send Huang Chong away from Bianjing as soon as possible.
Huang Chong said: "I really want to go back to Qiantang." It's too expensive to spend in Bianjing. ”
He earns all his hard-earned money, and there is a risk to his life, although he spent money on visiting the kiln in the past two or three days, he still feels sorry for the silver taels. Especially after Xu Xian entered the Guozi Prison, there was no one to provide him with food, drink and lodging, and he was even more painful.
On the second day, Xu Xian packed up his things and officially entered the Guozijian to report.
The check-in process went smoothly, but Rao was like this, and it wasn't completed until the afternoon.
It is more time-consuming to identify the authenticity of documents, check the archives and records, and identify the authenticity of Xu Xian himself, etc., and the people who do these things are all officials, and you are begging them to do things.
Guozijian as the highest official of the Dasheng State, also known as Taixue, the highest position sacrificial wine is from the third grade, and must be a respected Confucian to be qualified to serve, the following group of large and small officials.
The doctor is on the fifth grade, and the teaching assistant is an official from the sixth rank or above, and even the most basic direct lectures are also ranked.
You must know that the dignified county magistrate is in charge of the power of a county, and it is just the seventh grade.
Xu Xian successfully reported and was arranged in a dormitory, with a room for one person. The house is spacious and well equipped, so you can stay for a long time.
As for the classes, classrooms, etc., we will wait for the arrangement tomorrow.
Xu Xian was not in a hurry, and after packing up his book luggage, he safely picked up a book and warmed it.
Huang Chong had been sent back to Qiantang County directly by him, and the carriage was driven back by Huang Chong and handed over to Li Gongfu for processing.
