Chapter 2 Easy to get started?
Five days later, the Zhao family waded up to the foot of Benlei Mountain, took a sliding rod, and zigzagged along the mountain road all the way to Zixiaguan.
Since Dumb walked out of the city gate, he was like a different person, his eyes were smart and bright, and he had restored the cheerful and lively heart of the young man. Shopkeeper Zhao and his buddies saw the changes in their eyes, but they had their own tastes in their hearts. Especially the shopkeeper Zhao, his son is very happy to have aura again, but there is one thing, although he is on guard, he is still a little uneasy after all. In case his son is like a tendon and continues to cultivate, how can he realize that there are no immortals in this world?
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't help but smile, how could he be an adult who couldn't fight a child, and besides, this way of cultivating immortals, how can loneliness and suffering be endured by mortals, not to mention that his son has been pampered since he was a child, although he is not a rich family, he has never suffered anything. This time, let him suffer a little crime, and it will also break his delusions. But walking and walking, deep down in my heart for some reason, I always feel nervous, is there really any variable...... Hey, I don't want to.
This purple xia view is the first peak of Benlei Mountain, there are still twelve peaks and twelve scenery from the main peak, it is said that in ancient times, there were two immortals who showed their magical powers, a purple-clothed immortal broke off his sleeves and turned into this peak, when the sun rises, the glow of ten thousand roads, the momentum is extraordinary.
The Zhao family and his entourage entered the mountain gate at noon, and coiled around until the palm lamp came in. Due to the abundance of incense, the accommodation facilities in Guanzhong are readily available, and there are Taoist guidance arrangements. Fang cleaned up and stopped, and the Taoist boy came to report: The viewer is invited. Shopkeeper Zhao ordered his partner Zhao An and housekeeper Zhao Fucai to carry the gift box, and he and Dumb walked down the stone steps to the main hall.
Just walked to the bottom of the steps of the main hall, but saw two teenagers, a man and a woman, kneeling at the bottom of the steps, looking similar in age to Dumb. The humidity in the south is quite heavy, and at this time the palm lamp has passed the cold wind in the mountains, although it is the height of summer, but it is already a little cold. The two of them seemed to have been kneeling for a long time, the girl's body was thin and already in a trance, and although the young man gritted his teeth and struggled to support it, he was already exhausted.
A few people walked by, although they were surprised, but it was inconvenient to speak. The Taoist boy led here, and a Taoist chief flashed out of the hall, and greeted the shopkeeper Zhao, looking like a deacon in the middle of the view. Dumb turned around and asked the young man, "Hey, how long have you been kneeling?" The young man was startled, he didn't have the strength or the heart to take care of Dumb, and his waist straightened and turned a blind eye. The girl looked stunned, and she also showed a look of boredom. The deacon Taoist was a discerning man, and said: "The two little Taoist friends have been here since the time, and they are so persistent, and the poor Taoist has been persuaded several times, but ....... hehe!" "Don't mess around, don't disturb others." My father stopped him, and when Dumb saw that people ignored him, he felt bored and had to enter the hall.
The incense in this hall is full of incense, and after a few cases on the side, a Taoist chief holds the Buddha Chen Zheng into his own mind, thinking that he is the master of this Madhyamaka. The Taoist golden body is hidden behind the curtain, and the candle flame in the room is dim and it is difficult to see the true face of the law. The deacon Taoist's lips lightly opened the voice, and the Daoist's eyes opened slightly, and the two eyes swept like torches, Zhao's shopkeeper was shocked, but Dumb was unconscious.
The man slowly stood up and made a joke to the shopkeeper Zhao: "Zhao Daoyou has been gone for a long time." "Immortal Zhu has also been absent for a long time, and you have been much lighter recently", Shopkeeper Zhao hurriedly smiled respectfully. After the father and son worshiped the Taoist golden body, the deacon of the Guan Juan informed the Taoist to look at the seat, and then said: "Yesterday, Zhang Zhenren of the Taiqing Palace in Hanyang came over and said that Ling Lang wanted to enter the Zixia Palace to find the trace of immortals?" "Idiot hasn't come here to see Zhu Zhenren. ”
Hearing his father's words, Dumb gave a deep salute and honored him with the title of "I have seen the immortal master". "Come near, don't be restrained. Lord Zhu Guan spoke softly, but there was a faint echo in the hall, and the shopkeeper Zhao was shocked again. Dumb walked two steps to the front of the desk, raised his head slightly and looked at it with admiration. This Guan Zhu Zhenren's suit of Taoist robes and robes is spotless, his eyebrows are like swords, his sideburns are white, and his appearance is slender. Although he had already closed his eyes at this time, he looked kind, but somehow he still made people feel a sense of reverence.
Zhu Zhenren slowly stretched out his right hand and gently grasped Dumb's left arm, pinched it straight down to the palm of his left hand, and then turned it over to look at the palm prints, and groaned slightly. opened the birthday paper, swept the content with his eyes, his expression paused slightly, and he closed his eyes with his left hand to pinch the door and was silent.
Shaoqing, Zhengse said: "This child is named Senyuan, and the table word has not yet been taken?" Zhao shopkeeper was fascinated, and when he heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Exactly, when my father took the name in the past, he said that he would think about the table word when he got the fame in the future, just when the dog started his career." "According to the poor road, the word 'stupid' in Ling Lang's milk name is secretly in line with the number of his five elements, and it seems that everything has its own providence."
Zhu Zhenren smiled and continued: "Zhao Daoyou, since Ling Lang rarely has the heart to ask for immortals, I think I should stay in the middle of the observation for more time." Taking advantage of the stunned moment, Zhu Zhenren and Shopkeeper Zhao looked at each other, and Shopkeeper Zhao immediately understood: "Then thank you Immortal Chief, there is Immortal Lao to guide the dog for a few days to see if he will get some immortal roots." It's too late today, so I won't disturb the immortal elder Qing cultivation, and come back tomorrow morning to listen to the immortal elder Dao method." Zhu Zhenren smiled and said: "Where is it, please Zhao Daoyou don't have to be polite, if you need anything, just speak, don't be too small and poor all the way." The two were polite again, and said goodbye.
On the way back to the guest room, Dumb became dementia again, did this Guan Master accept me as a disciple? Is it so easy?
Looking back at the two teenagers kneeling at the foot of the steps, Dumb was even more confused. He pulled his father's sleeve and asked, "Dad, did the Taoist just say that he accepted me as a disciple?"
"Silly, I am at a loss for my father, but Taoism has its own mysteries, and those who are destined know it, go back to the room to rest, and you have to get up early tomorrow."
Dementia and his father returned to the room, but Dumb became more and more unsteady. But after all, he was young, and he was tired all the way, and he slept until the third watch in a daze, and his dreams were messy, and he turned over with a grunt, but he couldn't sleep anymore. This is the first time Dumb has lost sleep, and he heard his father's slight snoring in his ears, and everything around him was silent.
Dumb tossed and turned, so he had to put on his clothes and get up to go to the toilet in the corner of the courtyard. The stars in the mountains are like a river hanging upside down at night, the air is refreshing and rushes straight to the heart and lungs, and Dumb has not been sleepy since then.
Outside the turnaround hall, the two young men and women were still kneeling at the foot of the steps, watching their backs bent over and hunched over and falling asleep. Thinking that he was treated so differently than the two, he couldn't help but sigh a little. Walking through the corridor, I didn't realize that I had missed the guest room, and I just wanted to turn back, but I saw that the candles in the hall had not been extinguished, and the dark yellow light and shadow came out from the window paper, faintly like a human voice.
It was dark and dreary, only the starlight was seen, and after the moonlight turned to the mountains, there were occasionally a few insects and birds chirping, but the green mountains were more ethereal.
Although it is still more than ten zhang away from the matching hall, the sound of conversation in the room can still be faintly heard. I only heard an old voice say: "Senior brother, you and I have been in the beginner for more than 40 years, is there a day when there are not a few disciples who ask for immortals? This year, if not 1,000, there are 800, and which one of them has been absorbed into the upper three sects? Where can you go to the people who come to the pavilion to cultivate, I haven't seen them for many years." Hey. The sect ordered us to preach here, which is nothing more than to let the children of the family get some methods to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives. As for the technique of Jindan and the Flying Ascension Dao, even Brother Wei has not really seen it. In the past, the inner disciples came to my Zixia Temple since they flew to the pavilion, and they had never seen anyone with traces of immortal law. I have also tried more than once, except for those who have completed the basic exercises of this sect, this ascension path is not even available to those who have just glimpsed the path. I see, you and I will not be able to see it in our lifetimes. Outsiders regard you and me as immortals, how do you know how ethereal this Ascension Avenue is!"
"Why did the senior brother show his intention to accept apprentices to the Zhao family's father and son today?" Hearing the two of them ask and answer, it was the two of them who were the daytime observer and the deacon.
But I heard the master say: "Zhao's shopkeeper entrusted Taiqing Palace Zhang Zhenren with a letter saying that his son was already obsessed with it." This time, the shopkeeper of Zhao promised a lot of money, just to make a good show for his brother, so that this son could hit the south wall and retract his heart and live a down-to-earth life. ”。 "Oh, I see......".
Hearing the words of the Lord, the shock in Dumb's heart can be imagined. Fu listened to the Lord again: "Although the incense in the view is prosperous, there are not many Taoist friends who are so generous as the shopkeeper Zhao, and the cost of rebuilding the hall has not yet been raised, so this matter came at the right time...... Although you and I have been away from the world for a long time, it is really not easy to be parents. As the old saying goes, a gentleman ....... with the beauty of an adult". The next words, Dumb seemed to be deaf for a while, deaf to his ears, and his heart was discouraged.
For a while, this master stayed in the cloister. When I didn't think about it, I heard the Lord say: "But ......., when I saw this kid today, and saw that his bones, eyebrows and eyes were secretly in line with Tiangang, it reminded me of a person." "What Senior Brother is referring to ........"
"Do you still remember the crazy real person who broke through 12 levels in a row eight years ago -- Liu Rushi? I don't know why, the look and calm bearing in the eyes of this son today are so similar to Liu Rushi back then."
"Oh, senior brother, thinking that ten years ago, you and I were still practicing in the outer gate, that crazy real person was already the senior brother of Sunset Peak, I think his cultivation path has been smooth, and the sect exam two years later is even more blockbuster, not only did he break through twelve levels in a row, but he was finally sent to Jindan Cave by the master to get a glimpse of the supreme heart of this sect, and have the opportunity to step into the initial realm of ascension. A genius like him is said to be rare in a hundred years, and he has such an opportunity. In the end, he ended up losing his heart and going crazy, when he was crazy and betrayed the mountain, and the final ending was even as secretive as the head of the sect, which is really incomprehensible." "Yes, I think it was also a romantic figure in the sect back then, and there are always jealous talents. I still remember that at that time, several junior sisters on Qinglian Peak were so obsessed with him that they couldn't .........".
Dumb was listening to his intentions, but the words behind him were intermittent, and they were useless gossip. After a short time, probably because of fatigue, the room gradually fell silent, and soon the lights went out, and the door creaked, and the deacon Taoist had already arrived outside the door, and the footsteps were far away. Dumb then retreated to the guest room and touched the kang.
Shopkeeper Zhao was tired all day, and when he felt that Dumb was on the kang, he just snorted, turned over and fell asleep again. In the dark, Dumb's face was full of ecstasy: It turns out that there is really a Jindan Avenue and the Flying Ascension Technique in this world, and it seems that the sloppy Dao Leader eight years ago really didn't lie to me.
