Wei Wencheng was about to die of depression......

Originally, he was a fantasy writer in the 21st century, but he didn't know how, and without warning, he went to ancient times. As soon as the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info opened his eyes, he first saw a beautiful woman with beaded hair, claiming to be his mother-in-law, and then a middle-aged man with a beautiful hair and a body full of Qiluo, claiming to be his father. After the initial depression, he was quite proud for a while, and it seemed that he had come to a rich and noble family.

At the moment, he pretended to have amnesia, and tried his best to trick the words of the cheap father, only to know that this was the second year of Xiao Liang Taiqing, and the place where he was located was Jiankang in the capital. Wei Wencheng is very happy, you must know that the Southern Dynasty basically belongs to a quasi-aristocratic society, and the probability of the second generation of officials climbing up is very high, and there is no need to read the Four Books and Five Classics to take the imperial examination - at least as long as you don't get involved in political struggles, you won't run away in this life.

Unfortunately, it was less than ten minutes after the joy, when suddenly a servant stumbled in, and shouted with a frightened face: "Hou, Hou thief has broken the city!"

The so-called "Hou thief" is Hou Jing, who rebelled from the Northern Dynasty, because Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang Wu could not deal with the law, which led him to set off a counter-flag in the south of the Yangtze River and broke through Jiankang City this year. After the Hou army entered the city, he began to massacre and loot, the more the rich and noble families suffered, the more miserable Wei Wencheng's situation plummeted in an instant, except for the thirteen-year-old himself, his ancestors, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, etc., were all killed......

When the political situation stabilized a little, Wei Wencheng found that there was only one distant cousin left in his family. Fortunately, this cousin did not ignore his nephew, and also helped him find a way - ten yuan was sold to Tongtai Temple as a small novice.

The little novice did not study culture, did not care about chanting scriptures, let alone doing things, and his daily work was to wield a broom to clean the courtyard, and to take out wood, and to carry water. Wei Wencheng gritted his teeth, and really endured it, he said in his heart - the ancient saying: "The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and benefit what they can't ......" Maybe this is God's test for me. What happened to being a monk? Later, wasn't Zhu Yuanzhang also a monk?

But just after sweeping the ground for two days, that day I suddenly saw an old monk led by his senior brother, the old monk glanced at Wei Wencheng obliquely, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he asked: "Who is here?" The senior brother said: "I bought it for sprinkling, and I haven't shaved it yet." The old monk showed a strange smile on his lips: "The skin is white and the flesh is tender, and it is very pitiful." The elder brother waved his hand and said that the child was still young. The old monk smiled: "Poor monks love to teach the Dharma to children, hehehehe~~"

Wei Wencheng vaguely heard it, and he was frightened on the spot!

So without waiting for the old monk to "preach the Fa" to him that night, he sneaked out of the temple wall and ran away. But although the world is big, where can he run to a thirteen-year-old child, he was starved for three days, his chest was pressed against his back, and he was almost held down by a few ruffians and hooligans, and he passed the Fa to him instead of the old monk. After finally escaping, he was so depressed that he looked at himself by the river, and said to himself: Why am I so beautiful?

Suddenly, I saw another face appear in the water, and smiled at him: "Your bones are strange, extraordinary and vulgar, why don't you go with me to cultivate the Immortal Dao?"

Wei Wencheng screamed in fright, couldn't help but pounce forward, and plunged into the river with a fierce son. But as soon as he entered the water, suddenly a strong force came, which lifted him out of the water in an instant, and sent him back to the shore in a leisurely and safe way. At this point, he was completely dumbfounded—is there really an immortal method? This is so unscientific!

But if you think about it, there is nothing scientific about crossing this thing in the first place......

Only then did he have the courage to turn around, only to see that he was a Taoist priest who was reflected in the water with him just now, with his hair combed in a high bun, his body was covered with cranes, his face was like light gold, his five willows were long, and he was holding a wooden Ruyi in his hand. This Taoist priest's expression was quite kind, and his smile didn't seem to be mixed with any special desires - it was completely different from the old monk in Tongtai Temple - seeing him turn around, he waved his hand Ruyi, Wei Wencheng felt that his body was hot, and his originally soaked clothes were dried in an instant.

This, this thing is better than a washing machine!

The Taoist priest urged: "Are you willing to follow the poor Dao to cultivate the Immortal Dao?"

Wei Wencheng asked tremblingly, "Excuse me...... What is the name of the Taoist leader? Is there a god in this world?"

The Taoist priest smiled, raised his wish, and pointed at himself: "Dai Meng, the poor Taoist Maoshan is a disciple of Mr. Zhenbai - the immortals have their own, but if they practice diligently, they will be able to soar." ”

Mr. Zhenbai refers to Tao Hongjing, whose words are clear, and his name is Huayang Seclusion, who is the ancestor of the Shangqing faction in Maoshan Mountain. This person had a bad relationship with Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan, and legend has it that the country name "Liang" was obtained by him for Xiao Yan's occupation, so this person was called "Prime Minister of the Mountain". As for Zhenbai, that was the nickname given to him by Xiao Yan - that is, Tao Hongjing was already dead at this time, or according to the claims of his disciples, the Tao Master had already feathered and ascended to the immortal.

Of course, Wei Wencheng didn't know this at this time, not to mention that he was a layman in Taoism and history, even ordinary history lovers may not know who "Mr. Zhenbai" is when they hear it.

Wei Wencheng frowned and pondered, originally thought that only the north was chaotic enough, although the south had changed dynasties repeatedly, it was basically peaceful, who wanted to cross over not long ago, and ran into Hou Jingzhi's rebellion...... At present, he is only a little boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, helpless, and it is estimated that he will either starve to death in the wilderness, or be "taught the Fa" in the middle of the night. If you want to start from scratch and make a name for yourself in the troubled times, it is almost a fool's dream, and you don't have that talent and determination at all. I can't imagine that there are still gods and ghosts in this world, so it is better to follow this Dai Taoist priest into the mountain to practice, whether it is successful or not, at least it is a rice rut.

This Dai Taoist is handsome, a face is not annoying to look at, if it is life to offer chrysanthemums, it is better to dedicate it to him than to dedicate it to the old monk in Tongtai Temple or the group of scoundrels I just met......

Just thinking about it, he saw Dai Meng take out a piece of bread from his arms and hand it over: "Are you hungry?"

Wei Wencheng immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The master is above, please accept the disciple's worship." Then he stretched out his hand and took the bread......

Maoshan is in the territory of Jurong County, southwest of Jiankang, the distance is not too far, but the problem is that Tao Hongjing's disciples are thousands, and it is impossible for all of them to be crowded on Maoshan Mountain, so Dai Meng moved his own practice place to Xishan on the edge of Taihu Lake, he said that the place is called "Linwu Cave", also known as "Dragon God Void Cave", which is one of the ten major caves of Taoism.

Dai Meng went down the mountain this time, originally went to Maoshan to meet the same door, but as a result, a senior brother pinched his fingers and said that Jiankang should be in chaos, but there was a good seedling of cultivating immortals. When Dai Meng heard this, he didn't say a word, he grabbed his robe and rushed down the mountain, but he not only found the good seedling first-of course, it was Wei Wencheng, of course, but also deceived him with a piece of flour, and he couldn't help but feel happy. He was afraid that he would be robbed of his love by his senior brothers, so he didn't go back to Maoshan anymore, and deliberately led Wei Wencheng to take a detour to Xishan.

That night, when they arrived in a deserted place, the master and apprentice raised a bonfire and planned to sleep in the open. Wei Wencheng was munching on a few small fish that Dai Mengcai had fished up for him from the nearby river by casting a spell, when he suddenly heard a Buddha singing: "Amitabha, I don't know if the poor monk may have borrowed fire?"

Wei Wen was startled, and said in his heart that it couldn't be the monk from Tongtai Temple chasing after him, right? Quickly raised his head and took a look, and saw that it was a middle-aged monk, tall and tall, and with a beard, the first impression was that this bald donkey must be very capable of fighting.

Dai Meng stood up, raised his wishes, and said that although the teachings are different, they are all cultivators after all, and they should take care of each other, monk, come and bake the fire, and asked casually: "Dai Meng, poor Dao Maoshan Mountain, how do you call the master?"

The monk walked to the fire and saluted: "The name of the monk is Tanlin." ”

Dai Meng immediately became vigilant: "Could it be that Master Tanlin of Dinglin Temple? Master Tan Lin is not preaching the scriptures in Bear's Ears, why did he come all the way to Jiangdong?"

Monk Tan Lin smiled, and suddenly glanced at Wei Wencheng: "It's for this son." ”

Wei Wencheng was taken aback, and involuntarily shrank back. Dai Meng slightly turned his body to one side, covering Wei Wencheng, and said: "The master is late, this son has worshiped the poor Tao as a teacher, and has since entered the door of my Shangqing." ”

Monk Tanlin didn't pay attention to it, just tilted his head, looked at Wei Wencheng, looked up and down, and said after a while: "The little donor is indeed destined for my Buddha, so it's better to go to Dinglin Temple in Bear's Ears Mountain with the poor road." Although he has not received the mantle of the patriarch, if you can improve, you can intervene in the Shaolin Temple Hui Ke Senior Brother, and he will inherit the Dharma Patriarch's mind in the future, or he may also be hopeful. ”

Wei Wencheng said in his heart that after so many days, he finally heard a familiar name...... It seems that he was indeed a person from the Northern and Southern Dynasties. I couldn't help but ask, "Where is the ancestor?"

Tan Lin replied: "It's already sitting down." ”

Wei Wencheng said in his heart that he dared to love it...... If Bodhidharma is still there, maybe I'll go over and get the abbot of Shaolin Temple and the ancestor of Zen Buddhism, since I'm dead......

I heard Dai Meng angrily reprimand: "Since this son has entered my Shangqing, why did the master rob it?!"

Tan Lin frowned slightly: "It's not that the son robbed the disciples of the Ru Daomen, and it was ......" pointed at Wei Wencheng: "This is clear that I am a disciple of the Shi Sect, and it is the Taoist priest who snatched the ear first." ”

When Dai Meng heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. You must know that Wei Wen's cost is a little novice who ran out of Tongtai Temple, although he has not been formally shaved, and he has not been degreed, and he is theoretically just a temporary worker, but after entering the temple, his hair has been shaved first. So Tan Lin meant: This is clearly a little monk, it's not me who robbed your Taoist priest, it's you who robbed my monk, do you really dare to beat a rake?

Dai Meng couldn't help but say angrily: "This son has now followed the Tao, and he has nothing to do with the Buddha Sect." Master, go!"

Tan Lin raised his eyebrows: "Your master Mr. Tao Zhenbai has also received the precept of my Buddha, and you dare to be rude?"

Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan worships Buddha, which is also quite famous in history, and his old gentleman even gave himself to Shetongtai Temple several times, and he had to bring a large amount of property to redeem him...... At that time, the north and south were all the country to worship the Buddha, Taoism almost could not exist, Tao Hongjing had no choice but to go to the county to worship the Ashoka Pagoda in person, swore to take the ordination, and since then declared that I am the double cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism. Along the way, Dai Meng also told Wei Wencheng a lot of glorious deeds about Patriarch Tao, but he was naturally secretive about this black history.

But who would have thought that Monk Tan Lin was not polite at all and exposed it on the spot, this time Dai Meng was even more angry, and immediately raised his hand as Ruyi. Wei Wencheng felt a cold wind suddenly roll up, and then it seemed like a white line seeping out from Ruyi, stabbing straight into Tan Lin's chest like an arrow.

Monk Tan Lin didn't care, his right palm was still erect in front of his chest, his left hand reached forward, and with a light grab, the white line was immediately annihilated. If Dai Meng was hit hard in the chest, he couldn't help but defend himself, and at the same time, he took three steps back, and his pale golden face instantly turned pale.

Tan Lin ignored him, still paid attention to Wei Wencheng, and persuaded Wen Yan: "If you come to enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, pass on the interpretation of the Dharma, and destroy all the worldly vanity, it is a hundred times stronger than the side door." Isn't it a great mistake that you have a relationship with my Buddha and do not enter the Buddha Gate, but go to practice the Left Path?" and then stretched out his hand: "Come, come, and go with the son." ”
