Tang Emperor Li Shimin felt that the old Taoist chief was meritorious, posthumously presented as the Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor, and said that Mr. Shengxuan, the royal gift of Zhongyue Songshan was a blessed land for the immortals, and the coffin was located [here directly adopts Wang Yuanzhi's highest posthumous seal, Wu Zetian gave]!
Xuandu Temple, the hawker knelt in front of Wang Yuanzhi Ling with a disciple salute, with a solemn face, accompanied by a few senior brothers and a group of elders of the Taoist Gate, according to the usual old Taoist spirit for nine hundred and eighty-one days, Taoist priests from all over the world must come to incense.
During these eighty-one days, in addition to crying three times a day and offering incense, the hawkers ushered in and sent them, and the other was to print the New Tao Te Ching into a book.
There are three kinds of Tao Te Ching, one is free for ordinary people, unpretentious, like a common Bible, and the other is used by Taoist priests, with a dark blue hard cover and an eye-protecting green inner paper, which looks so refreshing!
The last one was printed in only three copies, but the value of these three books completely exceeded the price of the first two, because these three books were made of pure gold, not counting the price of the gold itself, and the labor cost alone was quite expensive, and it cost no less than 10 million to carve out three 32-carat pure gold million words in eighty-one days, even with modern technology!
When Lao Huang cherished the three scriptures to the hawker, one of the hawkers was placed in the coffin of the old Taoist Wang as a burial, one was handed over to Xu Daomiao, the new leader of the Daomen, and the other was kept by himself, and when the new holy palace of the Daomen in Luyi was completed, the hawker was ready to offer it in the holy palace for future generations to admire!
Eighty-one days after the suspension of the spirit, the old Taoist chief came out of the funeral, the funeral ceremony was comparable to the emperor, Li Er and the emperor Taishang led a group of courtiers to see off the old Taoist chief, and the people of Chang'an spontaneously stood to the Suzaku everyone to send the old Taoist chief on the last journey!
The coffin of the old Taoist is the coffin carried by sixty-four people approved by Li Er, although the old Taoist did not explain, but with the old Taoist chief before his death, I am afraid that he does not agree to such extravagance and waste, but Li Er, the hawker or the hawker agreed that it is only in this way to show the glory of the old Taoist and the glory of the Daomen.
The coffin starts from the Xuandu Temple, goes around Chang'an, and then crosses the Zhuque Street, first comes to the newly built Chang'an Railway Station, gets on the train here, and lets the old Taoist feel the convenience of the new technology of the Daomen, and then gets off at the Hanguguan Station, and the rest of the journey is walking, and the road is not repaired.
The hawker personally carried the coffin for the old Taoist chief, after Luoyang, it was already a cold winter wax moon, the sky was drifting goose feathers and heavy snow, in order not to delay the date of burial, the hawker transferred tens of thousands of slaves to open the road, open the road in the mountains, build a bridge in the water, and finally rush to send the old Taoist to the selected auspicious cave on the auspicious day.
Silently watched the people carefully seal the tomb, and the hawker knelt down for a long time with the new morality, and after sealing the cave, the Daomen people did another 7749 days of rituals.
After finishing the matter, the hawker turned back to Chang'an and called Xu Daomiao, "Xu Daochang, I will ask you for the affairs of Daomen in the future."
Xu Daomiao raised his palm towards the hawker and said, "The national teacher can rest assured, the poor road will definitely live up to the trust of the national teacher and the old Taoist"
"Well, I don't have to worry about you doing things, in this way, there will be a few reforms in the Daomen next, you can remember it"
"National Teacher, Please Speak"
"First, since the new scripture has been completed, in the future, the Taoist Xinfa sect will go out to preach and teach the believers according to the scriptures and meanings of the new Tao Te Ching."
Xu Daomiao nodded, "The Dharma Master's hard work has been accomplished, and it should be like this"
"Second, the magic school should no longer cherish itself, and some studies of the Daomen should be closely related to the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty.
"The national teacher can rest assured, if the poor road finds out that there is such an incident, the poor road will fight for this old life, and the portal must be cleaned up"
"Xu Daochang doesn't have to be like this, if this is the case, you can directly inform Your Majesty, the ends of the earth will not allow traitors to have a place to hide"
"Good"
"In addition, in the future, the Taoist sect should strictly inspect the new Taoist priests, and those who fail in character and homework will be deprived of Taoist qualifications.
Xu Daomiao nodded and said, "The body is not afraid of the shadow oblique, the square of the line can sit at the end, and the national teacher is thoughtful"
"Okay, I'll explain so many things, and finally it's the matter of the new holy palace of Daomen, Daochang Xu pay more attention, my intention is to complete it as soon as possible, but what Datang needs at the moment is to recuperate, and I can't afford such a big waste, but don't worry, ten years later, I must let the whole world see a Daomen Holy Palace that the world can see and worship."
Xu Daomiao stretched out his hand to make a gesture of "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable"
The hawker looked at Xu Daomiao, "I'm tired, I'll explain these things, and the Taoist chief please go back."
Xu Daomiao knew that the hawker probably had other things to explain, so he went down, and then Yuan Tiangang came in, "Old Yuan, Daoist Wang is gone, Daoist Xu will be the new leader of Daomen in the future, you won't blame me for not fighting for you, right?" ”
Yuan Tiangang shook his head again and again, "Don't dare, Tiangang knows that he doesn't have the ability to control the Daomen, how dare he covet it"
The peddler patted Yuan Tiangang on the shoulder, "You don't have to be presumptuous, Uncle Shi knows that you have strength, but we came out of thin air, and our qualifications are not enough, you will participate more in some Daomen affairs in the future, in fact, the reason why the old Taoist chose Xu Daochang to be in charge of Daomen affairs is nothing more than to pave the way for you and make a transition, you have to be prepared"
Lao Yuan didn't know where the hawker could see the deep meaning of the old Taoist, but if you think about it carefully, Xu Daochang's connections and qualifications are enough, but the only drawback is that the old man is not small this year, after all, another meaning of seniority is to live for a long time!
At that moment, Yuan Tiangang felt that the burden on his shoulders was a little heavier, "Uncle Shi rest assured, Tiangang will definitely live up to Uncle Shi's trust"
Following Yuan Tiangang, the hawkers called many people one by one to arrange them one by one, and in the end, everyone found that this didn't seem to be a thing, what were the hawkers going to do?
The truth was finally revealed at the last moment, "Everyone, I have explained everything, I have decided to retreat in the next three years, except for the allocation of goods needed by commerce and trade in various places, Niu Mansion will not accept anyone, if there is anything, please find Xu Daochang, Yuan Daochang and Li Shopkeeper to discuss"
After saying this, the peddler ordered someone to post the notice at the gate of Niufu, and as soon as the news spread, the entire Tang Dynasty exploded, and Li Er couldn't help but be stunned, what is the national teacher going to do?
The chambers of commerce around the country are also stupid, but fortunately, the national teacher explained before the retreat, and the deployment of goods is still continuous, but the national teacher is no longer involved in commercial activities, everything has to rely on everyone, it seems that the next few years to earn money is estimated to be not so pleasant, who doesn't know that the national teacher is best at all kinds of strange ideas, but those rare goods are now not very important!
No matter how outsiders speculate, the wives of the hawkers are also puzzled, especially those who have just entered the door, will they not go to bed in this retreat?
Knowing that the hawker might not be in a good mood, Li Yue'er asked the hawker gently, "What are you going to do?" ”
The peddler smiled at her and stroked Li Yue'er's face, "Don't I want people not to disturb our world and mess with you?"
Li Yue'er glanced at the hawker, "Virtue, I thought you were really retreating, look at the scared girls" The hawker looked at the other daughters-in-law with autumn water on their faces, and smiled very evilly, "Don't worry, I just want to be clean, you just hurry down and wash and wait for me to be lucky, anyway, I've been holding back for half a year, and everyone has it tonight, don't run"
The girls ran away with a shy face, and the peddler opened his pure gold moral Bible alone in the study, and turned to the first page "At the beginning, heaven and earth were chaotic..." )
