Chapter Forty-Eight: Maoshan Mountain
I told Yu Jue my thoughts, and Yu Jue said that I was not in a hurry, I finally came to Huashan once, let me play in Huashan for a few days, and I didn't shirk it, after all, I originally came to play with him.
I was tired of living in Huashan for about a week, after all, although the scenery here is good, but in addition to the mountain is the mountain, I feel very uncomfortable looking at the stones all day long. After saying goodbye to Yu Jue, I planned to go to Maoshan, after all, Maoshan is now my nominal home. Nanyue continued to stay in Huashan, and I was really uncomfortable watching this little couple day by day, but when I felt lonely when I got in the car, I realized that it was actually quite good to have them.
Maoshan is located in Jurong City, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, although it is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Huashan, but my high-speed rail in China is very powerful, I set off in the morning in just over five hours I arrived in Changzhou, and then guide the car to Jurong is already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, I found a hotel after a meal and fell asleep.
Fortunately, I kept an eye on it, and I wrote down the phone number of Liujiang who sent me a package last time, but just when I was impressed by my wit, I found that this number was empty early the next morning. I was speechless for a while, maybe Maoshan also has a fast passage like Huashan, but I am new to the city and I don't know the people inside, how can I find it? I followed the queue of tourists and sold tickets into the scenic area. This is really making others laugh when it gets out, and the disciples of Maoshan don't even know the way to buy tickets back to Maoshan. Luckily, I'm thick-skinned and keep following behind the butt of a tour group. This guide walked around and around until he reached the top of the mountain.
"Attention passengers! We are now located in the main peak of Maoshan Da Mao Peak, this is the highest peak of Mao Mountain, and the palace in front of us is the famous Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace. The tour guide said.
After hearing this, I hurriedly slipped through the middle of the tour group and walked inside. "Eh, young man, the Taoist chief inside can't enter at this time of teaching." The tour guide lady said hurriedly.
"Oh, it's okay, I'm a disciple here." I explained.
"Forget it, you are still a disciple, you have followed us all the way." The tour guide gave me a blank look and said.
I scratched my head in embarrassment and didn't know what to say for a while, when a Taoist priest in a yellow robe came out of the palace, he was very tall and about 1.9 meters tall, and I saw the Taoist priest say to me: "This tourist, you are quiet, you are teaching the Tao inside!" I hurriedly walked up to him, stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "Big brother, I'm Su Wei, a retreat disciple of Master Qiu. ”
The Taoist priest looked me up and down when he heard this, and then asked me to turn around, and as soon as I turned around, he lifted my clothes, and I hurriedly shouted, "Hey, what are you doing!" ”
After a while, he put my clothes down, then patted me on the shoulder and said, "Thanks to you for meeting me today, others will treat you as a psychopath, come with me!" With that, he led me into the palace.
When I entered the palace, I didn't find anyone teaching the Tao or anything, so I asked the Taoist priest, "Big brother, why is there no one teaching the Tao here?" ”
The Taoist priest said with a smile: "It's annoying that people come to visit Maoshan all day long, and we just want to make this decision when we want to be quiet for a while." ”
I nodded, and suddenly remembered that I didn't know his name yet, so I asked, "Dare to ask the eldest brother's name." ”
The Taoist priest smiled again, and then said: "You are really strange, people in the circle call us Taoist friends, and people outside the circle call us Taoist chiefs, and you call us big brother directly, which is really ingenious." ”
I also smiled embarrassedly and said, "After all, I started the industry late and didn't make a habit." ”
The Taoist priest said, "It's okay, I don't care about this, it's good that you entered the industry late but have the true inheritance of the master." ”
"Master? Are you too? I asked, confused.
"Yes, my name is Li Zhuo, and I am Master's disciple and your second senior brother." Li Zhuo said.
"How many disciples does Master have?" I asked.
"Senior brother Liu Jiang is a disciple of the lineage, and then I am the last you, and there is one more that is not to mention." Li Zhuo replied, and then pushed open the door and led me into an inner room.
In the inner room was sitting a middle-aged man in his forties, combing his back and wearing a yellow robe. Li Zhuo introduced to me: "This is Senior Brother Liujiang. ”
I hurriedly bowed my hand and said, "Meet the senior brother in charge." ”
"Senior brother doesn't have to be polite, you and I don't need to be so polite in private." Liu Jiang said.
Li Zhuo said to Liu Jiang: "Senior brother, how do you arrange it?" ”
Liu Jiang stood up and walked in front of the two of us, and then said to Li Zhuo: "Senior brother has been in the dust all the way, you take your junior brother to rest first, and tomorrow you will take him around Maoshan to familiarize yourself with the environment." ”
"Senior brother, don't worry, I've already turned around the mountain today." I hurriedly said, remembering that I had a headache when I turned around Maoshan, the tour guide was too responsible for turning Maoshan in one day today, and I didn't want to turn it anymore.
The senior brother also seemed to understand and smiled: "Okay, when you come to me after you rest, I have something to say to you." ”
I nodded, and the second senior brother took me to a room, he told me that this was the original master's room, and I originally said that I wanted to change it, I was not afraid of any taboos or anything like that, but this was a respect for the master, not to mention that if I want to live, it is also a senior brother to live, how can a little disciple live in the master's room. The second senior brother smiled and said, "This is Master's arrangement, you can live in it!" "After hearing this, although I didn't know why Master let me live here, since his old man must have made such an arrangement, I pushed open the door and walked in, and the second senior brother helped me close the door and left.
This room is quite spacious, there is an independent bathroom, the bed is also very large, and a golden statue of Daode Tianzun on the table in the room is still holding a whisk in his hand, I look a little similar to the master, but I have seen the master's real body, and the master is holding a dust whisk in his hand, which is obviously a banana fan. However, I didn't care too much about these details, took out three sticks of incense from the drawer of the offering table, bowed to the master, and then knelt on the kneeling mat and kowtowed to the master three times.
After taking a shower, I changed into my pajamas and lay down on the bed.
I don't know how long I slept, I heard a knock on the door, "Tuk Tuk~" I rubbed my eyes and said, "Please come in!" ”
The door opened suddenly, and in came a little girl in a black robe, who looked a few years younger than me, and said to me, "Uncle Su Wei, Master told me to call you to eat." ”
"Uncle Shi?" I asked, confused.
"Yes, you are my master's junior brother, I should call you uncle." The little girl said.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"I didn't have a name before, but then Master named me Yang Zhi." Yang Zhi said.
