The Taoist temple of the Sanshan Sect is in Linxi City, and there is a small river called "Xiliang" next to it. This is what my master, Ma Hongji, told me.

Leaving from the Lushan Sect General Altar, we rushed to Linxi City. Because when I came to the main altar of the Lushan faction, I and the pumpkin came by car, so the car could not be abandoned, so we could only drive to Linxi City.

The Chixia Mountain in Fuyuan City, where the main altar of the Lushan faction is located, is also more than 1,000 kilometers away from Linxi City, and it is estimated that it will take more than a day to drive.

However, the right is to be distracted, and my master and I are not in the mood to care about the distance now.

Soon, the car went up to the Min River, with a bridge on it.

At this time, my master's head was tilted, looking at the gurgling water of the Min River. The river glows with white scales in the sunlight. The river is bottomless, and boats or speedboats can be seen on the surface of the river from time to time.

There are also passing merchant ships, a prosperous scene.

I saw the face of my master Ma Hongji in the rear mirror, his face was tense, his face was dark, and his eyes were staring at the Minjiang River with nostalgia. Although the Minjiang River is still the same, I know in my heart that my master still loves the Lushan School very much.

Legend has it that the Minjiang River is the birthplace of the Lushan faction, and the bottom of the Minjiang River is where the sacred mountain Lushan is located. It is said that the founding father of our Lushan faction, Lushan Jiulang, was founded because he entered the sacred mountain Lushan and obtained great creation.

Later, the Lushan faction branched out, including the main altar, and divided into six sects.

Although Lushan Jiulang divided the Lushan faction into six sects at the beginning, I know that Lushan Jiulang also hopes that the Lushan faction can survive for a long time with the joint efforts of the six sects.

But he probably didn't think about it, the human heart is terrible. After so many years, it is no longer possible for the six sects to exist.

But now, the Three Mountains Sect has been disbanded, and it will be taken over by the Lushan Sect General Altar, in other words, it will exist in name only.

And what has become of the Lushan faction now, including the general altar of the Lushan faction, has become a place for tourism, and the originally silent and solemn Lushan faction has become a place for people to play, isn't it funny.

The key is that within the Lushan faction, several sects are still competing with each other, and they all want to dominate the Lushan faction.

Even the disciples within the Lushan faction are mixed. For example, Feng Anshun of the General Altar actually got together with his own master, and tried to get the position of the General Altar of the Lushan Sect.

Thinking about it makes me feel sick in my heart.

However, there is nothing left, and now that our Three Mountains Sect has been disbanded, we no longer belong to the Lushan Sect. In other words, we are free, and we no longer need to worry about the affairs of the Lushan faction.

Especially my master, Ma Hongji, I can see that he is a person who likes freedom and is unrestrained. According to him, the Three Mountains Sect was disbanded, and when he took me back to the Three Mountains Sect altar, he would travel all over the world. Maybe that's really good for him.

But looking at the Minjiang River under the bridge, my master Ma Hongji's feelings for the Lushan faction were still hooked.

I drove the car and asked my master: "Master, our Lushan faction originated at the bottom of the Min River, and the Dharma Master Lushan Jiulang has even entered the legendary sacred mountain Lushan, do you think this is reliable?" Does Mount Lushan really exist? ”

Although the Lushan Order is gone, I would love to hear my master's thoughts.

My master turned his head over, pondered for a while, and said, "The Divine Mountain and Lushan naturally exist, and that is the belief in the hearts of our Lushan Sect Taoist priests. Many of the Dao methods of our Lushan Sect were brought out by the Dharma Master from the Sacred Mountain and Lushan. It's just that some Dao methods are too powerful to be cultivated by people at all, so they gradually disappear over the years. ”

"However, the sacred mountain Lushan must exist, and I believe in that. After all, that is our faith, and if there is no faith left, then the Lushan faction will really exist in name only. ”

My master's words made me feel very confused, he meant that the sacred mountain Lushan really exists, but it is linked to faith. According to me, faith is all illusory, but faith is indispensable, whether it is for the Taoist priests of the Lushan sect or for ordinary people, faith is particularly important.

But at the end of the day, faith is a word that cannot be touched. Does that mean that the so-called sacred mountain Lushan is also part of the faith, and it is also a fiction created by Lushan Jiulang to dominate the Lushan faction and make it the belief of the Lushan faction?

It's also possible.

However, the gaze of my master, Ma Hongji, told me that he believed in the existence of the sacred mountain Lushan.

My master said, "Not only me, but also the other leaders of the Lushan Sect, as well as the head of the main altar, Xuan Zhenzi, they all believe in the existence of the Divine Mountain and Lushan. If there is no sacred mountain, why is there a Lushan order, according to legend, the Lushan order is the key to open the sacred mountain Lushan. ”

"Otherwise, Xuan Zhenzi of the General Altar may also do everything possible to get Lushan from us."

I said, "But Master, that's just a Lushan Order." Since the Lushan Order is so precious, why are several other sects and the Lushan Order on the other side of the main altar lost? They add up over there, but there are five Lushan orders, could it be that Chengdu is lost? ”

However, what I didn't expect was that my master gave me an answer that shocked me incomparably.

He shook his head and said, "Yuyang, you are too naïve to think about it, the other five pieces of Lushan Order have not been lost at all. ”

"Not lost? ... Master, what do you mean by that? "I felt an indescribable sense of shock in my heart.

My master said, "I mean, the other five Lushan Orders were not lost at all, but they were still in the hands of the Lushan Sect. The reason why the main altar was desperately trying to get the last piece of the Lushan Order was because the other five Lushan Orders were in their hands. ”

"You must know that the Lushan Order is the symbol of our various sects, how can it be easily lost. However, I can know this because of one thing. ”

"When I was a kid, I had an incident. It was about 30 years ago, when your ancestor was in the prime of life. Your ancestor is also my master. It was one night when a thief infiltrated the Three Mountains Sect and drugged your retreating master to steal the Lushan Order of the Three Mountains Sect. ”

"I was young, a teenager, but I already knew a lot of things. I couldn't sleep at night, so I went to the yard to fight crickets and play, and I found the thief. So, I quietly followed, and the thief blew smoke into the room where your ancestor was retreating, trying to stun your ancestor. ”

"But your ancestor's Taoism is also not to be underestimated, he has already discovered that person in advance, so he pretended to fall in the house. When that person entered the house, he was caught by your ancestor. At that time, I was lying in the crack of the door, and I was also called into the house by your ancestor. ”

"Your master was surprised when he woke up that man and tore off the black cloth on his face. That person was none other than an elder from the Lushan Sect's main altar at that time. I still remember the name of that elder, his name was Elder Qufeng. ”

"After your ancestor used the means, the Qufeng elder explained truthfully, saying that he came to the Three Mountains Sect to steal the Lushan Order. Later, under the persecution of your ancestor, he also told the truth, saying that the other five Lushan orders were also in the main altar, and they were in the hands of the head of the general altar at that time. ”

"Your ancestor who knew about this was also very surprised, but he still let go of that Qufeng Elder. However, not long after, Elder Qufeng, who returned to the main altar, died. Therefore, about the matter of the Lushan Order, in fact, only your ancestor and me, as well as the head of the Lushan Sect's main altar, know best. ”

"In the next few years, the main altar was very peaceful, but not long after, the general altar sent people to the Three Mountains Sect to steal the Lushan Order, and this time, they succeeded and stole the Lushan Order. However, it's a pity that the Lushan Order they stole is fake, and it is a fake Lushan Order created by your ancestor after the real Lushan Order. ”

"The real Lushan Order has been properly kept by your ancestor. But the people on the other side of the main altar are also very smart, and after discovering that they had stolen the fake Lushan Order, they still didn't give up. After so many years, in fact, the people of the General Altar have been infiltrating the Three Mountains Sect, wanting to get the real Lushan Order. ”

But they didn't succeed. Up to now, the head of the main altar has changed, and this Xuan Zhenzi is the kind of person who will not give up until he reaches his goal, and will do whatever he wants. He was desperate to scrape together the six Lushan Orders so that he could start his plan. ”

"This is just our Three Mountains Sect, and several other sects, most of them also have people from the General Altar infiltrating and trying to steal the Lushan Order, and they all succeeded. Even the head of the upper generation of the Golden Flower Sect was killed by the people of the Lushan Sect's General Altar, which was also said by the Qufeng elder who was caught by your ancestor. ”

Speaking of this, my master Ma Hongji paused slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. He sat in the passenger seat, and I took the mineral water from the side and handed it to him.

"Master, you should drink saliva first."

But my master waved his hand and didn't answer.

He continued: "You must be curious why the main altar must have gathered six Lushan Orders, right? ... Because, a single piece of Lushan Order can't open Shenshan Lushan, and the main altar wants to gather Lushan Ling, so that he can enter Shenshan Lushan and seek benefits for himself. ”

"Their purpose is not just the Lushan faction. In other words, the Lushan faction didn't look down on them at all, they wanted to seek greater benefits and unify the entire Daomen. ”

I was extremely surprised in my heart, I didn't expect the Lushan Sect General Altar to be so crazy.

"Because, it is said that there is a divine art hidden in the Divine Mountain Lushan, as long as you get this divine art, let alone the Maoshan Sect and the Meishan Sect, even if their various Taoist sects are added together, they will not be the opponents of the Lushan Sect."

However, when I heard my master Ma Hongji say this, I was puzzled again. I asked, "Master, since the Lushan Sect has a mind to unify the Dao Sect, isn't this a good thing for our Lushan Sect?" They can negotiate with other Lushan sects and collect the Lushan Order, and when the time comes, it will be beneficial for everyone to open the Divine Mountain Lushan. ”

My master shook his head and said, "Yuyang, you're thinking too simply. The main altar wants to get all the Lushan Orders, but the other sects don't want to get it? ... Besides, there is a divine art hidden in the Divine Mountain, how can the divine art be available to everyone. ”

"Although the human heart is fleshy, the human heart is separated from the belly. Even if it's me, I can't guarantee that I don't have the slightest greed in my heart when facing the divine arts. Sometimes, things may be simple, but things are simple, but people are complex. ”
