Zhou Xing's tomb is far away from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, this will be winter again, the three of them carried paper money tributes, walked for an hour with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and waited until the sky was completely dark, only to arrive at Zhou Xing's cemetery, Zhou Xing is not a child surnamed Zhang, he died and could not enter the ancestral tomb of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so he could only stay away and be buried with some ordinary disciples who died in Longhu Mountain.

The tomb is an earthen tomb, and the tombstone is bluestone, but it is not a good material, and the tomb of the ancestor Zhou Xingzhi is engraved on it, and the son Zhou Dian stands respectfully. The weeds on the grave are not tall, presumably Zhou Dian often comes to worship, Lin Qi saw the small mound, his eyes couldn't help but be wet, and he said that all kinds of things were like yesterday, the old man who was greedy for money, the old man who loved himself as a child, has now turned into such a handful of loess, and will never stand up again, and will never sigh again.

Lin Qi walked over gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing Zhou Xing's sleep, pulled out the yellow weeds on the grave one by one, and then cleared the weeds next to the tombstone, arranged the tribute, lit three long incense, knelt down and kowtowed three heads and sat up, looking at the master's tombstone with a slight smile on his face, and said softly: "Master, I came to see you, I'm sorry for you, I didn't look at the candle, we haven't known each other for a long time, only a few months, but in my heart you are like a father......

Speaking of this, he choked up a little in his throat and coughed: "Master, how good it would be if you lived, I still have a concern with my senior brother, people say that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, now you are gone, only me and my senior brother are struggling in this world, if you have a spirit in the sky, then bless us with everything going smoothly, master, the apprentice is a person who can't speak, but don't worry, your enemy will definitely report to you, senior brother has me by his side, how can he take care of him safely, find him a beautiful daughter-in-law later, Give birth to a grandson for you, let's not let him be a Taoist priest, let him study and take the top prize......"

Lin Qi was not a person who talked much, but in front of the master's grave, he suddenly changed back to the thirteen or fourteen-year-old himself, at this time the night wind suddenly blew, gently blowing his face, as if someone was gently touching, the fire that had not yet burned out the paper money flickered and flashed, and the whole night was quiet and beautiful. Lin Qi couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, at this moment he just wanted to accompany his master more, and accompany this greedy old man who had only been with him for a few months but lost his surname because of his surname.

Zhou Dian looked sad, knelt in front of the tomb, put on three sticks of incense, kowtowed three times, stood up and sat next to Lin Qi: "It's cold, go back early, if you are reluctant, stay here longer." ”

Zhang Qingshan also comforted: "Don't feel uncomfortable, Senior Brother Zhou Xing doesn't want to see you like this." You guys are good, if you have a son and pass on his lineage, Senior Brother Zhou Xing will be very happy. You think it's lucky to meet Senior Brother Zhou Xing, but why doesn't Senior Brother Zhou Xing think so? He has had a rough life, and I don't know how happy I am to accept you as an apprentice. ”

Lin Qi nodded, looked at the starry sky and turned his head to Zhou Dian and whispered: "When I was a child, I heard my mother say that a star in the sky represents a person in the world, and you said that the master would be that star?" Zhou Dian didn't speak, looked up at the starry sky, and was a little stupid for a while.

I don't know how long it took, the winter wind was getting colder, Lin Qi suddenly stood up, bowed to Zhang Qingshan, and said, "Please leave the matter of entering the mountain gate." ”

Lin Qi's ability is not under Zhang Qingshan, Zhang Qingshan has a love for him, and he has the meaning of making friends, the two have experienced life and death together, and they are always a little more intimate than others, listening to him, he patted his chest and said: "In me, in me, in me, tonight, I will go and tell the real person in charge of the teaching, let him find you a good master." ”

Lin Qi frowned and said, "I already have a master, and I don't want to worship others as teachers anymore." ”

Zhang Qingshan stomped his feet and said, "Why are you so desperate to find a new master for you, what's wrong?" With your qualifications, you must be a second-generation disciple of the family, but if you are your equal, if you don't apprentice, who is willing to really pass on your skills to you? You are only a third-generation disciple, and you are the same generation as Zhou Dian, you can think about it. ”

Lin Qi's surname is arrogant, he refuses to live under others, Zhang Qingshan knows, he thought that if he said this, Lin Qi would also go down the ladder, then he thought that Lin Qi actually laughed and said: "I was originally a disciple of Zhou Xing, if I worship others as teachers, don't learn, Zhou Dian is my senior brother, then I will be my senior brother for the rest of my life, Brother Zhang, your agitation method will not work." ”

Zhang Qingshan couldn't resist him, and snorted: "Zhou Dian is your senior brother, I am your uncle, come, shout Uncle Listen!" ”

Lin Qi glanced at him coldly a few times and said, "Twilight! After speaking, he dragged Zhou Dian away, leaving Zhang Qingshan flustered, pondered the meaning of the word "Wandering for a long time", and thought for a long time that he remembered the two sentences of Bao Zhao's poem "You Sifu" in the Southern Song Dynasty: "The twilight rises and the distant shore is black, and the yang essence extinguishes the sky red." Only then did I figure it out, Lin Qi was saying that he was old and pretending.

Zhang Qingshan was not angry, and stomped his feet and shouted at Lin Qi's back: "Lin Qi, you kid remember, Lao Tzu has to be your uncle......

The night was silent, Zhou Dian was very excited when he saw Lin Qi, and after talking for half the night, he couldn't bear to fall asleep anymore, but Lin Qi couldn't sleep at all, he had long been accustomed to sleeping during the day and moving at night, like a night owl, coming out from under the Yellow River underground palace that didn't see the sky, and he had an indescribable kindness to the darkness for no reason. It was as if only in the dark he was at ease and safe.

The snoring sound of Zhou Dian in his ears was shocking, once Lin Qi couldn't hear this snoring and couldn't sleep, but now he still can't sleep when he hears it, but this feeling is very warm, at least he is no longer alone, Lin Qi secretly thinks about his own affairs, thinking about learning the art of talisman in Longhu Mountain for a few years, when his ability is bigger, he takes Zhou Bi down the mountain to find Chen Youliang for revenge, Yu Niang's matter, he saw the silent old mother and the ghost ancestor make a move, only to know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, and now he is just with Zhang Qingshan, Yin Liheng, It's far from the top.

After thinking about it for a long time and still couldn't sleep, Lin Qi sat up cross-legged, took out the secret technique of the spirit official given to him by Lao Li, took a closer look, and unconsciously immersed himself in it, seeing that the sky was a little brighter, he felt a little tired, and was just about to lie down to sleep, but he heard a huge bell ringing in the distance.

"Bell, bell, bell...... The bell ...... "The three long and two short bells were extremely harsh, Lin Qi didn't know what was going on, but he saw Zhou Dian wake up suddenly, sleepy-eyed, and muttered: "Why did the earth-shattering bell ring, what are you going to do in the morning?" Lin Qi didn't know why, just looked at Zhou Dian, Zhou Dian shook his head, and hurriedly dressed, this moment Zhang Qingshan put on a yellow Taoist robe, hurriedly came, held a cyan Taoist robe in his hand, and threw it to Lin Qi and said: "You and I are about the same height, change it first, the earth-shattering bell rings on the mountain, something big will happen, if the bell does not ring three times, you will be punished, hurry up and ......"

Lin Qi wanted to say that he had just gone up the mountain, and he was not a true disciple of Longhu Mountain, but seeing Zhang Qingshan's urgency, he couldn't bear to make him ugly, not to mention that he would always stay on the mountain for a while in the future, and it would not be a bad thing to get familiar with it, so he hurriedly changed into a Taoist robe, followed Zhang Qingshan, and Zhou Dian hurriedly went to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

Along the way, but seeing that no matter how old the young Taoist priests were, they were all dressed neatly and hurriedly walked towards the second courtyard, Lin Qi asked Zhou Dian curiously: "Where are you going?" ”

Zhou Dian's urn said angrily: "All the major events in the sect go to the Ten Thousand Law Sect Altar." ”

Lin Qi hummed and didn't ask any more questions, followed quickly, and entered the courtyard of the second gate, and saw a huge courtyard courtyard, which was the altar of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect, the place where "all gods gathered".

But see the red walls and green tiles, the paint carving, and the spine beast taking off. The door hangs a plaque of "Wanfa Sect Altar", the courtyard is about two or four or five acres of land size, three halls are built: the main hall is five, the door of the courtyard stands in the middle, the front of the step is a "nine dragons and three legs" incense burning furnace Ding, the east and west two halls, and the face is built. The main hall is "Sanqing Palace", the original hall worships the gods, the gods, the heavenly soldiers and generals are one hundred and thirty-eight in total, there are "three Qing", "four royals", "three officials", "three Zhang" three Zhang, namely the first generation of Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, the thirtieth generation of Heavenly Master Zhang Jixian, the fortieth generation of Heavenly Master Zhang Side. A total of thirteen statues for worship. The east side is the "Lingguan Palace", there is Wang Lingguan, also known as Wang Shan, stepping on the fireball, pinching the fingers and raising the whip, the red face and long beard, the image of the golden robe and green belt, the protector of Taoism. The west side is "Xuantan Palace", there is Zhao Xuantan, also known as Zhao Gongming, black face and long beard, handsome robe and gold armor, the elephant of riding the tiger and raising the whip. The cross road in the courtyard, the rare flowers and different trees, the pines and cypresses are evergreen, the thousand-year-old podocarpus is two, one male and one female, the roots are intertwined, the leaves are verdant and lush, the peak crown is side by side, it is rare and rare, so that the courtyard of the altar of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect is particularly solemn and majestic.

Lin Qi followed Zhou Dian here, and saw that there were already a lot of Taoist priests standing on both sides of the courtyard, the color of the clothes on their bodies was different, and the position of the station was also different, wearing yellow Taoist robes, standing in front of the main hall, he and Zhou Dian, who were wearing cyan Taoist robes, stood at the end of the tail, this is not surprising, the yellow Taoist robe is called the ring robe, the placket, the length of the legs and wrists, the sleeve width is more than two feet four inches, and the sleeve length is carried with you. Yellow belongs to the soil, the soil can be transformed into all things, and the precepts are made of yellow, in addition to showing solemnity, it has the meaning of "Taoism of all things, counselor of education". Only those who have received ordination and received Taoist priests can wear this garment.

Lin Qi looked curiously, there were more than two hundred Taoist priests standing in the courtyard, only a few thirty or forty people were wearing yellow clothes, and the rest were all in the same cyan Taoist robes as him. There are moon and stars embroidered with gold and silver threads, and gossip patterns. Purple is the most noble in the Taoist uniform, and it is rumored that the Taoist ancestor Laozi rode a bull out of the customs "purple gas comes from the east", so Taoism advocates purple Taoist clothing.

is an old man, in his forties, with a dignified appearance and a strange skeleton, which is Zhang Zhengyan, the 41st generation of the Zhengyi Sect. Seeing him, the Taoist priests in the courtyard bowed their heads respectfully, and there was no noise in the whole courtyard, standing quietly and waiting, Zhang Zhengyan paced out, and saw a group of disciples in the courtyard standing neatly, nodded with satisfaction, was silent for a moment, and said clearly: "Please national teacher!" ”
