The pure yang lineage has a long history, which has been inherited for 1,500 years, and is the authentic sect of today's Taoism. It is said that the concept of pure yang inherited the Taoist system of Lu Zu and Lu Chunyang. Lu Zu, whose real name is Lu Yan, was born under the Lin Ye tree, and was born with a strange fragrance. When he was young, he was extremely intelligent and recited ten thousand words every day. And long, with the Taoist Zhong Li to learn the Tao, in a hurry for 30 years, a small success, so out of the teacher to break through the rivers and lakes, after a few times, the Taoism was completed, becoming one of the masters of the Taoist at that time. One day, Lu Yan traveled to Huashan, at a glance saw that this mountain is steep and majestic, gathering heaven and earth aura in one place, it is an excellent place to practice martial arts, so he opened a sect in Huashan, the name of the day: pure yang.

Lu Zu only accepted six disciples in his life, among which the eldest disciple Xie Liuyun has outstanding talents, whether it is Taoism or literary and martial arts, he is the best candidate for the next head of the Pure Yang Temple, but an incident happened later, causing Xie Liuyun to apostatize, and there are only five disciples left in the first generation of Chunyang, known as the "Five Sons of Pure Yang", these five people are Li Wusheng, Lingxuzi Shangguan Boyu, Qingxuzi Yu Rui, Zixuzi Qi Jin, Zhuo Fengming, the son of Jin Xu, Lu Chunyang died of serious injuries due to a sword when Xie Liuyun apostatized, and lived more than 1,200 years old.

Dividing line

Huayang town at the foot of Huashan Mountain, is the only place to pass through to the pure Yang Temple, the whole town adds up to about 200 households, of which ninety percent are farmers, the folk customs are simple, most of the people in the town sell the grain and vegetables to the pure Yang View for some money to live, when the Pure Yang View Selection Conference is held in September every year, it will also do some inns, snacks and other businesses, it should be said that the Pure Yang View takes care of the people in this town.

Although Huayang Town is a small town, there are many shops, including an inn, a restaurant, a grocery store, a blacksmith shop, a pharmacy, and a post station.

As soon as Li Yi arrived in Huayang Town, he went straight to the inn in the town, because the Pure Yang View Selection Conference was approaching, there were many people living in the inn, these people came from different backgrounds, there were people in the rivers and lakes with swords at their waists, elegant scholars with lupine scarves, rich men with slaves, and even two young men in python suits.

"The guest officer wants to stay in the hotel?" A shopkeeper who looked about the same age as Li Yi stepped forward, with a kind smile on his not handsome face, which made people feel close at first sight. "Bother the guest officer to make a registration, so that when you participate in the Pure Yang View selection conference, the small shop can also help you sign up. ”

Li Yi's identity in Huya Village was not easy to expose, so he had to take out the Yunyou document issued by Luochuan Academy and hand it to Xiao Er, "I am a Yunyou student of Luochuan Academy, this time I came to Huashan with a letter of recommendation, but I don't know where to hand in the letter of recommendation, I don't know if Xiao Er knows?"

Xiao Er took the document and glanced at it slightly, and after confirming that it was correct, he returned it to Li Yi, took out a small notebook and a pen from the blanket on his shoulder, and quickly wrote down Li Yi's basic information, after listening to Li Yi say this, he raised his head, looked Li Yi up and down, and seemed to have some surprise in his eyes, and said: " This guest officer, after leaving the town along the only avenue in the town, you can see a pavilion not far away, which is the welcome pavilion of the pure yang view, you only need to hand over the letter of recommendation to the disciple on duty inside, with all due respect, guest officer, your current complexion is not good, or wash up in the small shop, and sleep on the road. Actually, Xiao Er's words are still tactful, Li Yi's face is not good now, he is as pale as a ghost, the clothes on his body are also sloppy, his hair is messy, his eyes are bloodshot, and he looks haggard.

"Okay, Xiao Er, you can open a medium room for me, and then bring me a bucket of hot water. Li Yi took out a few pieces of silver from his arms and handed them to Xiao Er, "I'm buying me a set of cyan knight shirts, and I don't need to find the rest of the money." "The chivalrous shirt is a relatively common style of clothing in the No. 7 world, which is of high quality and low price, and is deeply loved by traveling students and rookies who have just come out of the rivers and lakes, which is very in line with Li Yi's current identity.

"Okay, guest officer, room 13, please. Xiao Er put away the notebook and pen, and enthusiastically invited Li Yi to the room located in the northeast corner of the second floor of the inn, this room is quite spacious, there is a bed, a table and a few stools, and there is a screen in the middle, behind the screen is a huge wooden barrel, I think it is for people to bathe.

"Guest, sit down first, and I'll go get hot water for you. ”

After a while, Xiao Er led a group of people dressed as farmers to walk in, each holding a small wooden bucket in his hand, which was filled with steaming water, and the little second hand also held a cyan chivalrous shirt, under Xiao Er's command, seven or eight people poured water into the wooden bucket behind the screen, and it was full at once.

"Guest officer, you use it slowly, just say something. After Xiao Er put away the chivalrous shirt, he led a bunch of people out.

As soon as Li Yi and the others left, they couldn't wait to take off their clothes, turned over and jumped into the bucket, splashed a large splash, "whew", and exhaled comfortably.

Li Yi, who had been soaking in the bucket for a while, stood up, dried his body with a towel, put on the chivalrous shirt that Xiao Er bought, fell asleep on the bed, and slept extremely peacefully, without any nightmares.

He slept for most of the day, and when Li Yi got up, it was almost dusk, he tidied up his clothes and walked downstairs alone.

There are only two tables of people left downstairs, all of them are rough men, drinking wine and eating meat in big bowls, so happy.

"Xiao Er, bring me a plate of fennel beans, a plate of beef in sauce, and a pot of wine. Li Yi found an unmanned table and sat down, took out a slip of copper coins from his money bag, lined them up, and said to Xiao Er.

"Alright, guest officer. Xiao Er walked over, took the copper coin, and shouted in the direction of the kitchen, "Let's dish fennel beans, a plate of beef in sauce, and a pot of wine." ”

Fennel beans and sauced beef are ready, so they are very fast, Li Yi eats fennel beans and sauced beef, and drinks warm rice wine, so he is not just happy.

After eating and drinking enough, Li Yi stood up, went out of the door with Xiao Er's congratulations, and walked towards the welcome pavilion in Xiao Er's mouth, because there was only one road in the town, so he was not afraid of getting lost.

As soon as he walked out of the city gate, Li Yi saw a pavilion at the foot of the mountain, and there were several figures in it.

"The sect selection meeting has not yet begun, please return to Chaoyang Town and wait patiently. There were four people sitting in the pavilion, two men and two women, all dressed as Taoists, one of them a man and a woman were playing Go around the stone table, and the other two were meditating with their eyes closed.

"Brother Dao, I have a letter of recommendation on me, please convey one or two. ”

"Oh" The man who played chess raised his head and glanced at Li Yi with a slightly surprised look, "Then you give me the letter of recommendation, and I will go to the mountain to pass it on." "So far, no one has dared to forge a letter of recommendation from Pure Yang Guan, so the man did not doubt Li Yi's words, but just took the letter of recommendation to the mountain to see which teacher recommended it, so as to send someone to introduce it.

Li Yi took out the letter of recommendation and handed it to the hand of the man who spoke, the man said hello to his companion, pinched a magic trick in his hand, and a cold light suddenly appeared, Li Yi looked at it fixedly, and found that it was a sword that was bubbling with cold light, and the man stepped on the sword, rose into the air, and flew towards the top of the mountain.

Li Yi has been in this world for so long, and it is the first time he has seen someone flying with a sword, and he is envious in his heart, wondering if he can also learn this method of flying with a sword after entering the mountain gate.

"I don't know where this Daoist brother is from, which teacher on the mountain gave the recommendation letter?" The woman who had just played chess blinked her eyes, couldn't help the curiosity in her heart, and asked, and the two meditating men and women next to her also puffed out their ears, obviously wanting to know the answer.

"My name is Li Yi, I am from Luochuan Academy, and I don't know which teacher on the mountain left the letter of recommendation. Li Yi, who was born, was really difficult to answer, so he had to be vague.

Then the woman chattered and asked non-stop, just like a little sparrow, Li Yi was annoyed, but fortunately, it didn't take long for there to be a sound of breaking the sky in the sky, and a red light like a rainbow drew an arc and fell next to the welcome pavilion, showing a little white-faced Taoist priest, very much the style of painting Baizi in the flower thousand bones, and the three people in the pavilion hurriedly came up to salute.

"Uncle Chu, why did you come down, could it be that you are the teacher who gave Li Yi a letter of recommendation?"

The little white-faced Taoist priest known as Uncle Chu shook his head, looked Li Yi up and down, and said: "My name is Chu Jiang, and I am a third-generation disciple of the Pure Yang Guan Purple Void lineage, you can call me Uncle Chu like Senior Nephew Yu, and now I will take you up the mountain to meet Master." Until now, Li Yi didn't know that the woman's surname was Yu, who had been surrounding him and asking questions.

After Chu Jiang finished speaking, he took out a boat-like thing from the storage bag and threw it into the air, only to see that this thing kept getting bigger in the air, and finally became a boat-shaped magic weapon more than ten meters long and about three meters wide, the surface of the ship flashed with a visible aura, and the appearance was so cool, Li Yi, who was on the tip of his ear, could hear the whispered voice of the woman surnamed Yu next to him, "This ship is the trophy that Uncle Chu got when he participated in the East China Sea War, it is said." Li Yi couldn't hear the next words, because Li Yi was already sitting on the boat and flying.

It flew for about a quarter of an hour before it stopped in front of a large hall.

"This is the Sanqing Palace, the first hall of my Pure Yang Temple, and Master is waiting for you inside. Chu Jiang introduced Li Yi while leading the way.
