After summing up with the Taoist temples in the provincial capital, it was decided to choose the 18th day of the fourth lunar month as the day of the merger, and the first night, the Iveco of the Taoist temple in the provincial capital drove in, and the next morning, we took the genealogy book to the provincial capital.

On the way, Daoist Zhang, who was in charge of picking us up, introduced us to the origin of Zong Qingguan.

It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, Taizong always dreamed of ghosts at night, and he was overwhelmed by it, and he became ill for a long time. Later, there was a Taoist priest Li Qingfeng who offered a plan to let Qin Shubao and Wei Chi Jingde guard the palace, the two fought for many years, and the murderous spirit was very heavy, and they really didn't have nightmares since then, but Qin Shubao and Wei Chi Jingde were both generals in the Tang Dynasty, and it was impossible to guard the court every day, which was a bit overkill. So Li Qingfeng painted the two generals, and hung it in the palace after the painting was completed, just like a real person guarding it, and a hundred ghosts should not be disturbed.

After Taizong recovered from his illness, he asked Li Qingfeng what reward he needed.

Li Qingfeng only asked to build a view and pray for the blessing of Sheji, and Taizong promised.

This Taoist view is today's Zongqing Temple.

The original intention of Li Qingfeng's meditation was to cultivate the Tao and pray for blessings, so Zong Qingguan was originally a jungle of ten directions. The meaning of the Ten Directions Jungle is that Taoist friends are allowed to place orders in the temple, that is, as long as they are legitimate Taoist priests, they can come here to live and cultivate, and they can even participate in various affairs in the temple. Such an inclusive and inclusive attitude has enabled Zong Qingguan to be passed down to this day, and the incense is still the same.

Nowadays, although the customs of Guanzhong are Quanzhen (now Taoist priests are mainly divided into two major factions: Quanzhen School and Zhengyi School, Quanzhen School pays attention to precepts, Taoist priests do not have wives, do not eat meat, must be monks to live in the jungle Taoist temple, disciples become Taoist priests need to pass on the precepts. And the Zhengyi faction is more relaxed, you can get married, eat meat, you can not only cultivate at home, you can also choose to go to Taoism, and when teaching disciples, you only need to give the urn, but this is only roughly divided, especially in rural and remote areas like us, pay less attention to it, Taoism pays attention to bonding, you can have a heart), but it is also compatible with other factions, so after the merger, everyone is still in the descendants of the temple in various places (the descendants of the temple is like us, the master is passed on to the apprentice) to cultivate, still according to the previous customs, but when there is a big sacrifice, The factions came together.

But if you send a little Taoist priest to Zong Qingguan to study, then the little Taoist priest will have to follow the customs of Zong Qingguan, after all, it is impossible to open a small stove for the little Taoist priest alone.

It was almost noon when we arrived at Zongqing Temple.

Zongqingguan was built on a hill in the center of the city, and now the bottom of the mountain has become a park, but halfway up the mountain and above belong to religious territory, and tourists are not allowed to step into it.

Zongqing view is built in the middle of the mountainside to the sun, there are 100 meters of stone steps before entering the view, there are tall pine trees planted on both sides, the stone steps are full of pine needles, when we arrive, we see that the top of the stone steps is full of people standing at the gate, after going up, Zhang Taoist hurriedly introduced.

In the middle wearing a yellow robe is the Zongqing Guan Supervision Institute, named Song Xuyun, and the few next to him are all Taoist masters of the virtual character generation, although Daoist Zhang introduced them one by one, but I can't remember the name at all. The master and uncle took us to salute the Taoist chiefs, and Song Xuyun and others hurriedly returned the salute, and then led us into the view.

After entering, I found that this is the style that Taoism should have, first of all, it is a wide practice field with Yin and Yang Taiji, both sides are the wings of rest, dozens of steps up in the middle, there is a large courtyard above, a lotus pond in the middle, the two sides are the chanting rooms, the top is the Sanqing Palace, and there is a incense stick at the door. On either side is the conference hall, and there is a path next to it that leads to the wing rooms next to the hall.

In the middle, next to the incense tripod, there is a Taoist standing at the head, immortal wind Dao bones, wearing yellow robes, wearing a crown of five mountains, Song Xuyun hurriedly introduced, this is the master of this view, that is, the host: Huo Xuhuai.

We hurriedly saluted, and humbly presided over the salute with a smile, saying that we had worked hard all the way.

There is a young man standing next to the host, who should be about the same age as me, but he is really handsome, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, standing tall and graceful.

There is a way that is as gentle as jade, and the gentleman is unparalleled.

The ancient Song Yu Pan'an, it is estimated that this is the case, with the Taoist costume Zhuangzi scarf, it is even more unconventional.

At this time, I saw that in the lobby next to me, a few Dao Gu walked out, including Senior Sister Xuanji, who presided over the introduction, and the Dao Gu headed by the Dao Gu was the host of Liuliguan, Liu Xuyi. We saluted again, and the Taoist aunts returned the salute.

Then the naturalization ceremony was held, and the birthdays of our Louguan Taoist priests were copied into the genealogy of Zong Qingguan.

After the festival ended, all the Taoist leaders of the Void Descendants were invited to the lobby next to the Sanqing Hall to discuss the future.

Because there are fewer people cultivating the Tao now, and being a Taoist priest is hard and requires practice, so there are even fewer people who can persevere, and the biggest problem of each faction today is the problem of inheritance.

Therefore, the presiding officer Huo Xuhuai suggested that he send outstanding Xuanzi disciples to study in various factions, and each faction also has an inclusive and inclusive attitude, and teaches each other, so that the next generation can become stronger, and do not let the Taoist successor have no successor because of the prejudice of the portal.

When everyone listened, they all nodded yes, and everyone saw it clearly, the times have changed, and many people think that Taoism is superstition, and Taoism pays attention to the rule of inaction, going with the flow, and philosophically it is not as good as Buddhism to purify all living beings, so easy to be accepted, in other words. Buddhism stresses: If you come, I will save you, if you don't come, I will find a way to save you. And the Taoists are: You come, cultivate the Tao, if you don't come, if you don't come, you will be pulled down, I am still busy cultivating immortals.

In the heyday, it was difficult to see a Taoist priest.

After the meeting, it was decided that everyone would select outstanding Taoist priests from each other and go to various sects to learn Taoism at different times.

We Louguan, leaving the senior brother and a senior brother to cultivate in Zongqingguan, and the people sent to us to cultivate the Tao are Senior Sister Xuanji and Senior Brother Su Xuanke.

Senior Brother Su Xuanke is the handsome man who just stood next to the host. The host Huo Xuhuai said that Su Xuanke should be the most talented one among the Xuanzi generation, and he has advanced very quickly in both comprehension and Taoism.

After the host finished the introduction, Senior Brother Su Xuanke bent down to the master and the master to salute, and at the same time greeted several little Taoist priests of our generation one by one, while holding fists and saluting, we just came, the master Uncle introduced us to the people of Zong Qingguan, at this moment Senior Brother Su Xuanke, I remembered the names of all of us once, I have to say, the memory is really good.

He is only half a year older than me, but looking at his appearance and knowledge, this is the protagonist in the TV series.

Compared to him, I really have low self-esteem and a little jealousy.

Needless to say, Senior Sister Xuanji, everyone in our Louguan has already seen it.

In the evening, Senior Brother Su Xuanke and Senior Sister Xuanji returned to Qingshan Town with us, because the Taoist Bay is a small place, so they were arranged to live in the Taoist temple in the town.

But I knew in my heart that the purpose of their trip was not just to learn Taoism, but more likely to come to the hidden land.

And I just want to take this opportunity to ask Senior Sister Xuanji more about their secrets.

The next day, Senior Sister Xuanji and Senior Brother Su Xuanke came to Taoist Bay to learn Taoism with the master. In the process of teaching, I found that the master used to teach me a lot of mistakes, because the folk Taoist priests have a very low level of education, and many of them are like each other, while the master is very generous, saying that they learn from each other and correct each other.

Two days later, Senior Sister Xuanji suddenly asked me if there were any similar places in the surrounding area except for the strange land in Huaishuwan.

I inquired, it turned out that the two of them had secretly gone to Huaishuwan again in the past few days, but after Senior Brother Su Xuanke saw it, he said that the aura in the valley was very heavy, and after listening to the people who came last time tell what happened, he knew that the ghost was unfathomable, and he didn't know the specific origin of the ghost, so he didn't dare to do it.

I secretly rejoice in my heart, Senior Brother Su Xuanke is just a showman, not that powerful.

In fact, I already know several places in the hidden place, but I don't want to tell others this secret in my heart, and then I think about it, at this moment, Senior Sister Xuanji must think that I am my own person, so I don't hide anything from me, and I don't want to bear her, I think about it, it is estimated that the land of the school, they live in the town, and sooner or later they will know, why don't I be a favor, and I will roughly tell Senior Sister Xuanji about the school. But I begged Senior Sister Xuanji to remember to take me with them if they were ready to do it.

Senior Sister Xuanji smiled and said, "This kind of place is too dangerous, you better concentrate on cultivation." ”

But I was not reconciled, and said that maybe my talisman could help you too.

Senior Sister Xuanji thought for a moment and said, "It's okay to take you to see and understand, but you must listen to me in everything." ”

I hurriedly nodded in agreement.

A few days later, Senior Sister Xuanji whispered to me when she was practicing, and she was going to do it tonight.

In the evening, I found an excuse to go back to Songwan to live, and the master allowed it.

And tonight, it's going to be another sleepless night.
