Maoshan has a pivotal position in the history of Taoism, and also has this pivotal ability, which is called the altar of the Shangqing Dynasty, and has the reputation of the world's first blessed land and the eighth cave heaven.

After these years of development, it has also become a tourist attraction, with nine peaks, nineteen springs, twenty-six holes, and twenty-eight ponds, which are famous all over the world.

But the Maoshan I want to go to is not Maoshan Mountain, which has become a gathering place for tourists at this time, nor Maofeng, the main peak of Maoshan Mountain, but several wild mountains behind, no one develops it, and no one wants to go, which is a good place to relax.

Inaccessible.

I took some of Master's favorite delicacies and some daily necessities, crossed the main peak of Maoshan Mountain, and searched back and forth in the ravine and ravine for a long time before I found the peak where Master was retreating.

This mountain is called Hanging Mountain, it is a straight and straight mountain, and the stairs that have been carved out spirals upward, like a hanging ladder, so it is called Hanging Mountain.

I climbed up, spinning back and forth all the way, which was very laborious, but when I was young, I had to climb mountains, so I didn't get tired of climbing up.

After working for most of the day, at noon, I arrived at the top of the mountain and saw a quiet and secluded temple, which made me feel good, "Finally back again." ”

Striding in, full of joy, the memories I have here are all excellent, the corners of my mouth can't help but smile, but when I arrived at the door of the Taoist temple, I saw three people in the world kneeling at the door, one by one kneeling panting, sweating profusely.

When he saw me coming, he was still stunned.

"I want to go to the mountains to apprentice."

I asked.

The three of them are about the same age as me, and they may have just graduated from college or are still in college.

"Yes, we don't have any expectations for the rest of our lives, and we hope to cultivate quietly here and become an outsider."

"Glory, wealth, talking and laughing, live up to a dream in life, those are meaningless, it is better to enter the mountains to be pure."

From the words, it can be seen that the three of them seem to really see through the red dust, and they also know a little about Taoist allusions.

I nodded, "Then you can wait and see if Master is willing to take you in." He continued to walk inside with his things and glanced back.

At the beginning, I was dragged here by my grandfather, kneeling for a long time, and my grandfather begged me inside for a long time before accepting me as an apprentice and becoming a lay disciple.

And there is no clear master, just follow the Taoist master in the Taoist temple to learn qigong and strengthen the body, so it is very difficult to enter the door.

At this time, I went in and happened to see one of my masters, who instantly smiled and said excitedly: "Third master, don't come unharmed, disciple Liang Feng specially came to visit." ”

Haha laughed.

The third master was thin and weak, wearing a Taoist robe, like a monkey, with a slight sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and a mustache, but with a kind smile, he was cooking with a bucket, and when he saw me, he instantly smiled, "I also said, you should take a summer vacation, if you have time, you will definitely visit, haha, wonderful, wonderful." ”

Then they put their hands together and recited, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." ”

I asked, "What about the second master and the eldest master?" ”

"Your second master went to another Taoist temple to travel far away, your master is studying in it, you go in and have a look, we talked about you a few days ago."

"Okay, okay."

So he gave the things he gave to the third master and the second master and some daily necessities, and said, "I'll go see the master first." ”

"Uh-huh, go, go, go."

I quickly grabbed the gift and pushed open the door of the main hall.

The master is very old, already seventy, a gray-white beard, holding a whisk and meditating with his eyes closed, the whole person is very tall, about one meter eight, tall body, very strong, as soon as I entered, I also opened my eyes, my eyes were blazing, "Xiaofeng, you are here." ”

Get up slowly.

I immediately went over to help, saluted, "Plop!" "Kneel down," Disciple Liang Feng, meet Master. "Bang!" "Bang!" Kowtowed, then he grinned and looked up at the master, "Master, how are you." ”

Master Dao Xuan, was sent to the foot of the mountain when he was a child, so he was born to be a Taoist priest, and it was a good choice when the war was in chaos, so he also practiced with peace of mind, and until now, the Tao is transcendent.

At this time, the dust shook off and asked me to get up, "Get up, didn't I tell you?" Although you and I are commensurate with master and apprentice, we are not really master and apprentice, I give you qigong to strengthen your body, and it is just to save people and cure diseases. ”

"If you don't admit it, I can't deny it."

Haha smiled, opened the snacks one by one, and had some food.

Master loves to eat spiced peanuts, so I happily rubbed the skin and handed it to him and said, "Master, how about you taste it." ”

"Okay."

The master smiled, happily ate my offerings, was very happy, and looked at me, "You have recently flashed peach blossoms, is it time to get married, haha, it's okay, it's okay, get married early, your Liang family has descendants, it's also good, and it's worthy of your grandfather's spirit in the sky." ”

"Oh, Master, modern people don't get married so quickly, I'm just getting a girlfriend, and I haven't gotten to that point yet." Happy to say, "A little virgin." ”

"You can see it, you can see it."

The master ate peanuts one by one, and said, "Your second master's realm should be improved, so he went on a long trip, and he won't be able to come back in a short time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see it this time." ”

"Next time, I'll come back next time, it's not in a hurry."

Looking at the tea in the distance, and pouring tea for the master, here, spending a quiet life reminded me of many memories of my youth, haha laughed, and my heart was completely relaxed.

The master is also very good-looking, still talkative, and calm.

I said, "I am relieved to see that you are in good health, Master. Haha laughed.

At this time, the third master came in and shouted, "Senior brother, Xiaofeng, it's time to eat, don't talk yet, eat, eat." He read a sentence, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." ”

The third master has a problem, and he has always talked about the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable.

It's like a monk reciting Amitabha, but it's on TV, and few monks always talk like that, and the Taoist priests are the same, but the third master always mutters about it.

I laughed and said, "It just so happens that I also brought some vegetarian dishes, and the two masters and my brothers and sisters have a taste." He asked happily, "How many of them are there?" ”

"I couldn't bear the loneliness, so I ran away."

The third master shook his head, "The scenery outside is beautiful, and the mountains are boring, you should go out for a walk, maybe you can come back in the future." He shook his head and recited another sentence of Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable.

Then I understood, "There are only two masters on the mountain." After a while, he thought of the three young people outside the door who knelt down and begged for entry, "I think those three young people are not bad, just let them go into the mountain to practice, and the two masters can also have personal care." ”

"No, no, we can still walk, we can move, why waste their good youth, they still have to look at creation."

Master got up and said, "Don't talk about that, let's eat first, Xiaofeng must be hungry all the way." ”

The weather was hot, and in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, a table was set up, a plate of green vegetables, a pot of gruel and a few flatbreads.

I put all the vegetarian dishes I bought.

The master and the third master were not polite, and they buried themselves in eating.

I followed.

Eat silently, sleep silently, and don't say a word when eating.

After eating, I went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and then poured tea again, and then I said the reason, "Master, Third Master, apprentice, I have a lot of things to ask Master Master for this time." ”

"Say it."

I had already seen it through, and I nodded when I drank tea.

I smiled faintly, first for the things of Beiyan Mountain, the five immortals, and the night pearl, I talked about them one by one.

When the two masters heard this, they shook their heads and said, "I don't know about the Pearl of the Night, I have never heard of what you said for the first time, and I dare not say much about the way of immortality, but I know some of the five immortals of Beiyan Mountain." ”

The elder brother talked eloquently, "Beiyan Mountain used to have a lot of names, I visited the famous river and mountain when I was young, and I went there, it was very strange, and then I asked some Taoist friends, only to know that there was once a famous demon girl who moved the world, entrenched there, entangled in many demons and evil obstacles, for the disaster party, no one can accept it, the ancient temple and the five immortals you said are worshipping the demon girl, I am afraid that it is to worship the demon girl, it should be the disciples and grandchildren of the demon girl, and the mountain ghost is probably also the evil seed left over when it was entrenched. ”

"Enchantress?!"

This is connected with what Zhuo Bufan said, so I asked, "You only have the origin of that demon girl." ”

"It is said that she is a snow girl, she was abandoned in the snow just after birth, seven days and seven nights for death, absorbing the cold of heaven and earth for her own use, becoming a snow girl, and then getting the opportunity to cultivate into a demon, this is what happened."

"Transformed by the Snow Maiden, that's really a monster."

The Snow Girl is similar to a mountain ghost, and she is also a ghost who is not a ghost, and a human being who is not a human being, and her experience is similar to what my master said, that is, a child who is abandoned in the ice and snow for seven days and seven nights and does not die.

This is obviously impossible, the newborn child was thrown in the snow for a few hours and died, not to mention seven days and seven nights, so very little, I didn't expect the demon girl to come from like this, "What is that called, who the parents are can know." ”

"I know everything, it is said that the biological brother and sister of the family stole the forbidden fruit, and the girl was pregnant and afraid that people would know, so she threw it away after giving birth to the child, and the nose and eyes said, the family's surname is Fang, and then the demon girl went to check, I don't know if it's true or not."

The master drank tea and said, "But this was a long time ago, and no matter how it turned into dust, the demon girl was already dead." ”

"This ••••••"

I thought about the appearance of the goddess of wood carving again, she was a stunning beauty, so I asked the two masters, "Then you say, can the pearl come back to life that night?" ”

"It's impossible, it's been so long, most of them can't."

The Third Master shook his head.

"I think it's the same."

The Master thinks the same way.

I scratched my head, I felt the same way, how could it be resurrected, this is too rebellious, so I smiled, I didn't ask, just know the origin of the demon girl and Beiyan Mountain.
