Text: Volume 3, Chapter 1, Qingyang Sanxuan

With a flick of his fingers, thirty years have passed in a hurry, and it is already early autumn.

The third-generation head of the Qingyang faction, Xuanji Daoren, dressed in a dark green robe, stood under the thousand-year-old pine in front of the gate of the Valley Shrine at the top of the ethereal peak, and looked thoughtfully at the Nai He City that was clearly visible under the mountain.

Nai He City, located on the coast of the East China Sea and the river of the Great Chinese Dynasty Empire, is still the ancient city of mountains and seas that has stood for 300 years.

Starting from Nai He City, less than a hundred miles to the east, there is still the vast and vast sea, the sea surface is the thousands of island countries with turbulent waves, and under the waves is the faintly jumping Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.

A hundred miles to the north, there is still a river running endlessly on this continent.

However, in the southeast of the city, there are still the Qingyang Mountains and seventy-two peaks at the foot of the mountains, and the Qingyang faction that is full of vitality and momentum above the Qingfeng Peak.

A gust of autumn wind blew, and the sky was clear. Looking to the west, the smoke willow painting bridge near the city of Naihe, the laurel tree and lotus, the prosperous people's house, vividly in the eye, the rice fields and blue waves of the Dahua country in the distance, the jungle of the plains, the fertile soil of thousands of miles, the rivers and mountains are picturesque. Then I blinked my eyes to the north, and I looked into the distance, and I still saw the silver-like river flying in the sky.

In recent decades, due to the decline of the Dahua Dynasty, the situation of the Ziyang faction has become worse and worse. After the world-shaking Ziyang Zhenren (Qingyang Zhenren's senior brother) soared to the immortal, the subsequent eight generations of descendants Chong Xiaozi and the current ninth generation head of Xuanyang Dao, he was not as proud as him in terms of skills, and he was a little less powerful and ruthless in dealing with the affairs of the rivers and lakes. The Great Punishment Country of the Heavenly Clan on the southwest side and the Great Barbarian Wilderness Country on the southeast side have encroached and embezzled a lot, and the strength of the Ziyang Sect is not as good as it is year by year.

In that year, after the ancestor Qingyang Zhenren founded the school, he was in charge for one hundred and fifty years, committed to building pavilions and palaces, cultivating oneself and doing good, preaching and propagating the Dharma, changing the old rules of Shen Fa that the entry must be a monk and a monk ignoring vulgar things, and put forward the method of cultivating the Tao and cultivating the truth of the nine levels, widely accepting lay generations to train disciples and registered disciples, passing on merit and educating people, and benefiting the world, resulting in the rapid growth and expansion of the Qingyang School, and finally left a "Qingyang Xiuzhen Secret Classic", which was passed on to the head of the sect to be located in his own master Chong Xuzi, and turned into a feather and ascended to the sky. But there are only two disciples of the ancestor, who seem to be thin and the incense is not prosperous, which is also the biggest regret of the ancestor Gu Bi, so after ascending to the immortal, only two veins were passed down. That uncle Chong Wuzi has a very high talent in martial arts, and he is upright, but his personality is a little withdrawn and high, and he doesn't like mundane things, so the ancestor placed the Wanghai Peak in the northeast of Qingyang Mountain, as well as the Sun Shooting Peak and the Dragon Slaying Platform to him, and set up a blood alliance ban, so that he and the senior brother of the Ethereal Peak Valley Temple worked together to guard the Netherworld Valley and the East China Sea Jiaolong outside. The Chongwuzi lineage is sometimes referred to as the small sect of the Qingyang faction on the rivers and lakes. As for the important task of carrying forward the vast number of Daozhen Kung Fu, Qingyang Zhenren handed it over to his master Chongxuzi and asked him to spread incense. Although the master Chong Xuzi understood the wishes of the master, but also knew that the selection of apprentices was the first in the qualifications, the emphasis was on the character, so he carefully selected, rather than indiscriminate, reigned for more than 100 years, and only accepted four descendants; he expanded the "Grain Temple" into the "Grain God Palace", and began to build three new temples on Feiyun Peak, Fengming Peak and Meixiang Peak, which were placed for the eldest disciple Xuanyun, the third disciple Xuanming and the younger disciple Xuanmei Xiuzhen to study martial arts. Before ascending, Chong Xuzi ordered his second disciple Xuanji to inherit the position of the head of the sect, and directly took charge of the original three peaks, one pavilion, one palace and one wonderful gate, and let the four disciples behind him burn incense and swear, and then left the blood alliance prohibition, so that the four of them worked together to spread incense. Chong Xuzi is a major sect of the Qingyang faction.

Since taking over the position of the head of the sect, nearly 50 years, Xuanji Daoist people have been conscientious and walking on thin ice, for fear of living up to the painstaking cultivation and trust of the master, and also for fear of living up to the senior brother's avoidance of the position and the respect and maintenance of Xianhe. He has been following the instructions of his master, according to the record in the third volume of the "Qingyang Cultivation Secret Classic" left by his master, he has used the secret method of cultivating the truth of the three-yuan and nine-order cultivation to guide the inheritance and development of the Qingyang faction, and refine and cultivate the true people. Over the past decades, he has recruited talented young people from all over the world, selected disciples, preached and cultivated the truth, practiced martial arts and swords, passed on skills and sought the law, refined pills, developed artifacts, and soared to improve his skills, which can be described as tireless hard work. However, he himself was still not satisfied. Because the most important thing is that there is still a lack of talents with better innate foundations among the disciples. Moreover, he secretly believes that his personal kung fu Taoism is not as good as that of Master Chong Xuzi, and the master is far inferior to the master Qingyang Zhenren, for three generations, one generation is not as good as the next, and the fundamental reason is that the talented generation is inferior to the generation.

"Master Xuanyun is here!"

The waiter's clear voice interrupted the contemplation of the Xuanji Daoist.

"Please!" he said, hurrying down the hill.

"Senior brother doesn't need to be polite! Poor Dao is uninvited!"

With a long roar, I saw a Xuanyun Daoist with a white cloud map on a gray-blue robe, and a woman in a plum blossom costume in green clothes who looked like she was in her thirties, and flew down from the treetops dozens of zhang away to the eyes.

"Haha! Of course, you don't have to invite yourself to go home. The doctor said with a smile.

Of course, the Xuanyun Dao people are the doctors in the world.

"The Qingyang faction will always be the home of the senior brother, the Void Pole Hall on Feiyun Peak, the senior brother is the same whether he is there or not, as always, he arranges people to regularly match the magic weapons and arrange the landscape, Qingyao and the others take people to clean and wipe every day, ventilate and keep it new. ”

"Why bother so much? How many times have I said it a long time ago, you can use the Void Pole Hall for other purposes, I can't come here a few times a year, and I'm almost at the bottom of the mountain for three hundred and sixty-five days, and I'm idle anyway. ”

"Then how can it be done? The Void Pole Hall is the first holy temple of Feiyun Peak, except for Senior Brother and your two disciples, no one can use it, even if you sit down and drink a cup of tea, or lie down and take a nap, no one can touch it without your consent. ”

"I can't touch it either?" asked the woman in Tsing Yi with a smile.

"Mei girl is still so naughty!How can there be anything in this Qingyang Mountain that you can't touch?" asked Xuanyun Daoist with a smile.

When Xuanmei first entered the mountain, she was still a six- or seven-year-old girl, and she was thirty or forty years younger than Xuanyun Xuanji. Due to the age gap, the senior brothers all spoiled her very much, especially Xuanyun, who almost never treated her with a face, and often teased her, until she was in her twenties, Xuanyun traveled out of the mountains, and they were completely separated. Now she is also nearly seventy years old, but in the eyes of the senior brother, she is still the same as when she was a teenager, with an innocent demeanor that does not grow up, coupled with the cultivation of true qi, she is not old, and she looks like she is in her thirties.

"Exactly, of course the little junior sister is an exception. Daoist Xuanji said seriously. "But I haven't seen you for a few months, Senior Brother, your new kung fu of 'Glimpse of the Wind' has become more vigorous. ”

"That's not as good as the new trick 'Flying Across the Chaotic Clouds', junior brother! I just went to Lingxu Pavilion and met Mei Yatou, she said that you just left, and you came back here, so we rushed over together. What are you looking for here? Are you worrying about the country and the people again?"

"Hehe! I can't hide anything from my senior brother's eyes!" said Xuanmei.

"That's right! I found a medicine primer this time, which may be beneficial to the heart disease of the head of the junior brother. Xuanyun Dao Chief said leisurely.

"Oh——!" Xuan Ji Dao raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously. "Let's not stand here three of us! Let's go in and sit down and talk!"

The three of them walked into the palace gate, walked into a crystal wide square, and came to a side hall called 'Qingxu Palace'.

"Qingjiang! on tea!" Xuan Ji shouted. The three men sat down in the temple.

"Three masters, please use tea!"

The thin and thin young disciple named Qingjiang carried a delicate green clay pot and poured three cups of fragrant tea and served it.

"This green tea seems to have added wheat and lily, and now in the early autumn season, the weather is dry and hot and easy to dry, which is good. What is this faint sweet smell? The acacia flowers of our Qingyang Mountain are dense. Isn't that right?" the doctor guessed as he sipped his drink.

"I can't hide anything from the master, this is the new four-flavor autumn tea that the master has been getting these days, all of which are newly picked fairy grass in this Qingyang Mountain, and you have just arrived when you are cooked, and you are all right. It's amazing! The disciple admires it to the extreme!"

Qingjiang was so impressed that he poured him a full glass.

"What do you admire, Senior Brother, he is not human at all!" Xuan Mei said.

Qingjiang was stunned, so frightened that he didn't dare to come out. How could anyone talk like that? Little Master, what's the matter? Secretly glanced at Xuanyun Dao Chief, but saw him blowing lightly on the hot air on the tea with the same expression as before.

"He's not a human! He's a god! He's a world-famous god of medicine! Not to mention the four flavors of autumn tea, if you add ten flavors to brew together, the senior brother can also taste them for you one by one." Am I right?

When Xuanmei said this, Qingjiang's frightened beating heart calmed down, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Next time in front of the juniors, don't break a word in half. Look at how scared the kids?" said Xuanyun Dao Chief, faintly.

"Hehe! Senior brother has taught me the right lesson! ”

In fact, Xuanmei hasn't seen her senior brother for a long time, and it's rare to be so happy. The second senior brother was originally silent, but now as the head of the family, he is usually more serious than relaxed on the mountain, so Xuanmei is too lazy to laugh with him.

"Girl, how dare I teach you? If you don't teach me, it's good. ”

Daoist Xuanyun said, the second cup of tea was finished again, and Qingjiang poured another cup.

"Senior brother, you've also drunk two cups of this tea, isn't it time to get to the point?"

Xuanji Daoist has been sipping tea slowly, waiting, on the surface he looks leisurely, but in his heart he is waiting for him to hurry up and get down to business, and finally seized the opportunity to pour tea and interrupted the drama after his reunion with Xuanmei.

"I found a rare piece of strange stone and jade, but unfortunately this strange stone and strange jade has a fatal flaw in it. Daoist Xuanyun said this softly, then stopped, and lowered his head to drink tea again. Daoist Xuanji immediately understood his metaphor.

"Qingjiang, you step back first! Just put the tea here. ”

Disciple Qingjiang quietly retreated.
