Just when I didn't know what to do, an elderly Taoist came over.

"What's going on?"

The middle-aged Taoist chief asked.

The young Taoist priest hurriedly threw up his hand and shouted, "Uncle Shi—"

The middle-aged Dao Elder nodded and said, "What happened just now?" ”

The young Taoist priest pointed at me and said angrily, "Uncle Shi, this man is a liar, and he asked me where the Lord was, and what his father's name was Yunshan. ”

"What's even more annoying is that he calls the master a master, so isn't he my uncle or uncle?"

The young Taoist priest said with some unconvinced.

I was also stunned, I didn't know about the ranking of Taoism.

If he calls Uncle Xuanguang and calls him Master, in terms of seniority, he really has to call me Uncle or Uncle Shi.

Hearing the young Taoist priest's words, the middle-aged Taoist priest was obviously a little surprised.

He immediately looked at me and said, "This little brother, what is the relationship between you and Uncle Xuanshan?" ”

"Uncle Xuanshan?"

I'm a little puzzled.

The middle-aged Taoist chief looked at me puzzled, and then explained, "I heard the master say twice, saying that he has a junior brother who is commonly known as Yunshan and the Taoist name is Xuanshan. ”

"It's just that I don't see Qingyun Temple all the year round, but in a remote place called Yunjia Village, helping sentient beings to look at feng shui and do good deeds."

After listening to the other party's words, it dawned on me that my father also had a Taoist name called Xuanshan.

It's just that he never mentioned it to me.

So I replied, "Yunshan is my father, and I came from Yunjia Village, and this time I am looking for Uncle Xuanguang because my father has a letter for me to give to him." ”

"My father is no longer here, though."

I said with some sadness.

As he spoke, he took out the letter my father had given me before.

Hearing my words, the middle-aged Dao Chief's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "What are you talking about, Senior Uncle Xuanshan has feathered-"

My eyes were a little moist and I nodded.

The stakes are very high, and the middle-aged Taoist chief said seriously, "In this way, if you can trust me, give me the letter, and I will go and give it to Master." ”

It turned out that this middle-aged Taoist master was the apprentice of Master Xuanguang.

I didn't think much of it, so I gave the letter to the other party.

The middle-aged man said, "Little brother, the stakes are very high, I have to figure it out, please wait here for a while, and I will give the letter to the master." ”

I arched my hand and said, "It's a long time." ”

Obviously, the other party still has doubts about my identity and needs to be verified.

After the middle-aged Taoist priest left, the young Taoist priest looked at me in disbelief.

"Are you really the son of Master Xuanshan?"

The young Taoist priest asked again.

I nodded.

The young Taoist priest was pleasantly surprised, "I've seen it in the ranks, and there is the name of Master Xuanshan in it, if this is true, you are really my uncle." ”

"My name is Mingjing, what is your name, uncle?"

I'm a little embarrassed, I haven't entered Taoism yet, and it seems a little inappropriate for him to call me uncle.

But he called it that, and I couldn't help it.

So he said, "My name is Yuntian." ”

"It turned out to be Uncle Yuntian, you are so young, but you are really more senior than me."

Ming Jing shook his head and sighed.

I became a little interested and said, "By the way, how long have you been in Qingyunguan?" ”

Ming Jing smiled, "I am an orphan, I have lived in Qingyunguan since I was a child, this is my home, I have been in Qingyunguan for eighteen years. ”

Ming Jing is eighteen years old.

I'm three years older than him.

Suddenly, Ming Jing asked mysteriously, "Uncle Xiao, do you feel that there is such a thing in this world?" ”

"What's that?"

I asked, a little puzzled.

"That's it."

Ming Jing gestured.

It turned out that he was talking about "Ah Piao", which is a ghost.

I was a little strange and said, "Aren't you a Taoist priest, don't you often deal with these things?" ”

Ming Jing looked at me with disdain and said, "Whoever is a Taoist priest must have seen it, at least I haven't seen it yet, and I suspect that there is no such evil thing now." ”

There are some things or things that you will only believe when you experience them; And if you haven't experienced it, no matter how much you say, it's useless.

I didn't answer the other party's question, but was a little curious, "What do you Taoist priests do every day?" I find this profession quite mysterious. ”

Ming Jing looked bored.

"What else can I do, every day is to chant scriptures and practice things or something, or to practice words and play the piano or something, or to meditate, it's really boring."

"I really want to go out and see the world out there."

Generally, Taoist priests have clear rules and precepts, with the purpose of self-cultivation and self-cultivation, and do not allow their disciples to enter the world.

So I can also understand Mingjing's distress.

Ming Jing and I chatted without a word.

After a while, the middle-aged Taoist leader hurriedly walked over.

"Senior Brother Yuntian, Master let you in—"

The middle-aged Taoist said.

After saying goodbye to Ming Jing, I followed the middle-aged Taoist chief through the small door and into the backyard.

The area of the backyard is not small, and there are many small courtyards, which are obviously the places where the Taoist priests of Qingyun Temple rest.

The middle-aged Dao Leader said while leading the way, "Senior Brother Yuntian, my Dao name is Zhengxuan, you can call me Senior Brother Zhengxuan." ”

"Okay, Senior Brother Zhengxuan."

It seems that my seniority is indeed not small, and I agreed politely.

After a while, I walked into a small courtyard.

I saw an old Taoist with a Taoist priest's hair in a bun and a long white beard sitting in a small pavilion in the center of the courtyard.

There are stone tables and benches in the small pavilion.

On the stone table are a teapot and several small teacups.

Lao Dao looked at the letter paper in his hand, stunned, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.

The old way in front of him should be Master Xuanguang.

Although I hadn't seen him for many years, and his face was much older, I still recognized him at a glance.

"Master, Senior Brother Yuntian is here."

Zhengxuan said respectfully.

Master Xuanguang waved his hand and said, "You go down first." ”

"Yes."

Jeonghyun nodded to me and left.

The sorrow in Master Xuanguang's eyes flashed away, and then he beckoned to me with a smile, "Xiaotian, come here." ”

"I haven't seen you for so many years, I didn't expect to grow so big."

I hurriedly walked over and, at the suggestion of the other party, sat down.

"Uncle Shi, my father ...... him"

I said with a little choked up.

Master Xuanguang sighed and said, "Alas, this is all providence...... I already know about Senior Brother Xuanshan. ”

The other party continued, "Senior Brother Xuanshan has taken it as his responsibility to maintain the righteous path of the yang world all his life, and he has paid too much in silence. ”

"I think that when I went down the mountain with him to kill demons and eliminate evil spirits, although I did a lot of good things for the world, I also had too many causes and effects with some evil things, so that he didn't get a good end in the end, and was harmed by these despicable things......"

Master Xuanguang said with a sad face, remembering many past events.

After I listened to it, I realized that my father was great and a real unsung hero in the world.

It's just that how many people in the world know the dedication of people like them?
