Ge Hong, the Taoist priest of the Jin Dynasty and the great master of Danding, once said in the book that the Taichuguan of Lingbao County, Shaanzhou, is the place where the Marquis of Hangu Guan saw Lao Tzu, and the holy palace of Zhongnan Zong is the former residence of Guan Yin.

The ancients read and wrote from right to left, so Taoism should actually be Taoism.

Guan, that is, the meaning of seeing, is extended to explore, and the meaning of contemplating the Tao should be to explore the mystery of the Tao.

And the so-called observer, watching from above, this view, especially refers to the observatory when the ancients looked at the celestial phenomena, standing on the observatory, peeking at the mystery of the heavens.

Therefore, the Taoist temple is like an observatory, and the Taoist priests peep into the mysteries of Taoism on this observatory, because there is also a saying of "Taoist temple and Taoism".

Taoist priests in the Taoist temple to cultivate and worship, Taoists need to be quiet and inactive, leaving the country to sit and forget, is to need an extremely quiet environment, so Taoist temples are usually built in the deep mountains and old forests, unlike the temples of the great monks, built in the downtown area, and even used for business.

In such a quiet and empty place, Taoist priests can isolate themselves from the hustle and bustle of the world, listen to the whispers of heaven and earth, return to the basics, listen to the sound of the wind and insects, watch the sunset and sunrise, eat and drink dew and float freely.

Because Taoism is a local sect in China, it has a long history, and Taoist temples are all over the place, which has given birth to many places that can be known as the ancestral court of Taoism.

Such as the Baiyun Temple on the land of Youyan, the Taoist view of Qingcheng Mountain in the world, the Shangqing Palace of Longhu Mountain, the Lu Zu Temple, and later Wudang, etc., Taoism also has ten major caves, thirty-six small caves and seventy-two blessed land.

Longshan Temple is such a place that Taoist priests in the world yearn for.

This Longshan view is located at the southern foot of Phoenix Mountain, sits in the west and faces east, builds according to the mountain, walks along the mountain, seems to be natural, the surrounding mountains are like the entrenched green dragon, the mountains arch guard, many palaces are hidden in the pine and cypress.

It can really be said: "The green mountains and green water are warm, and the grass is fresh as usual in the cold winter." The queen mother's jade pond is full of elixir, and the golden carp is playing and flashing gold. Strange flowers and plants are scattered and lush, and the garden forest is just like falling from the sky. ”

Yang Jing walked to the mountainside, and in addition to the stone steps with no end in sight, he could only occasionally see some palace tiles and cornices.

Yang Jing remembered an allusion for no reason, so he said to Feng Ruochen beside him: "I once heard that Huizong once used the ancient temple in the deep mountains as the theme to study the painters in the palace, and those painters racked their brains to hide the temple as much as possible, some were painted on the mountainside, and some were hidden in the dense forest. ”

And the one who came out on top, not a single brick or tile appeared in the painting, and the waterfall went straight down the foot of the mountain, and the old monk was carrying water under the mountain. ”

Since there is a monk carrying water, it is naturally used for washing and cooking, which means that there must be a temple on the mountain, this monk is so old, but he needs to carry his own water, indicating that there are no young people in the temple, and even it is very dilapidated, and the word ancient temple is pointed out, and the whole painting has never appeared in the temple, but it is reminiscent, and it is the first. ”

The artistic achievements of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong are undoubted, although there is a shame of Jingkang, but there are still many legends and allusions to this emperor among the people.

However, after Yang Jing finished speaking, Feng Ruochen was a little shocked and said, "There is such a thing, how did you hear it?"

Yang Jing also stagnated slightly, and said in his heart that these allusions or stories could not be far-fetched or even made up by later generations, since Feng Ruochen had never heard of it, it may not necessarily be true.

Thinking about it like this, Yang Jing also became empty-hearted, and just sneered: "I just want to say that this Longshan view is just such a posture."

Feng Ruochen saw Yang Jing's smile, and thought that he was joking again, so he didn't talk to him, and gatehouses gradually appeared on the way, and some buildings appeared from time to time on the left and right.

The higher you go, the wider your field of vision becomes, and the Longshan View gradually reveals its true face.

But seeing that the palace group is not like it was made by manpower, but like the palaces that the heavenly court fell directly to the world, and all kinds of pavilions and pavilions loomed in the mountains, and the entire Longshan Temple was like a heavenly palace within reach of the overhead!

The immortals enshrined in this Taoism are also varied, some are dedicated to the Three Qings, some are dedicated to the Patriarch of Chunyang, some are dedicated to Zhang Tianshi, and there are also those who worship the Holy Emperor Guan and the Emperor Zhenwu to protect the earth, the gods of Lei Gongdian Mother, and there are also worships in Fujian and other places to worship Mazu Niangniang, in short, there are countless of them.

In later generations, Hainan even has a jade toad palace, which is said to be dedicated to the white jade toad Ge Changgeng, as for which gods are enshrined in this Longshan view, Yang Jing is also quite curious.

I have also seen too many wonders and wonders along the way, Yang Jing also has a general understanding of Longshan Temple, and the more amazing he is at the heritage of this Taoist Temple, no wonder Empress Dowager Yang wants to control this palace behind her back.

According to what the little Dao aunt said, even if Yang Jing and the others were all strong martial arts practitioners, it took more than an hour to come to the Zhengshan Gatehouse.

Xu is that Songyan real person has a budget again, and Xu has made arrangements early, but he saw an old man with a crane, leading more than a dozen acquaintances, guarding in front of the mountain gate.

There is also a hierarchy in this Taoist temple, because there are too many Taoist priests, naturally someone needs to manage them, and the fields and forest products and daily affairs of the Taoist temple always need someone to come forward to Zhang Luo.

Like the level of heavenly masters and mages, most of them survive in legends, and the most noble in reality should be the founding ancestors of various Taoist sects, and then there are real people, and below are the cultivators of the yellow crown and the feather guest, and the ordinary ones are laymen.

In fact, the real people in charge of the Taoist temple don't pay much attention to secular affairs, mainly to guide the disciples and carry out spiritual construction, and these things are handed over to the Guan Zhu or the prison to manage, and the prison is like the general manager, and then the deacons of each court.

As for those so-called acquaintances, they are responsible for receiving and welcoming guests, and knowing guests to respond to clever words and receive guests and friends from all over the world must be well aware of affairs and understand human feelings.

However, these acquaintances have bright eyes, and it seems that they are all people who are often involved in diplomacy in Longshan Temple, but they are entangled by the red and earthly world, and they can't cultivate Taoism, and they are not deep in skill.

And the prison in his sixties, his eyes were shining, his face was clear, and although his body was thin, he had an unfathomable deterrent power!

It was this prison that gave Yang Jing such a deterrent, I really don't know what kind of cultivation that Songyan Zhenren should be!

Seeing the appearance of the prison and others, the little Dao Gu trotted forward quickly, her eyes were already full of grievances, as if she wanted to use her eyes to sue Yang Jing.

"Uncle Shi, Yi Ji is back"

Seeing that Xiao Daogu was annoyed, the old prison also shook his head secretly, nodded at her and said: "Distinguished guests are here, Yi Ji, don't mess around, this running and jumping has no rules, and it can't help but make the distinguished guests laugh!"

Xiao Daogu, whose name is Yi Ji, saw that her uncle and uncle, who loved her the most on weekdays, deliberately kept a straight face, her small mouth suddenly deflated, she stomped her feet, and stood next to the old prison.

Yang Jing saw all this in his eyes, straightened his official uniform, and walked to the front.

Yang Jing was wearing a Taoist robe when he went out, because he was also a disciple of the Nanwu Sect, and he was also a native of his own generation, and his seniority was very high.

But after last night, Yang Jing already knew that someone was going to deal with him, so he simply changed his robe and put on an official uniform.

This is the official uniform of the Dongxiao Palace, the second-in-command in charge of Taoism in the world, and the official of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Poor Dao is Chen Xixian of the Longshan Guanjian Academy, and many Zhike disciples of the Longshan Guan, welcome to Yang Jing of the Dongxiao Palace. ”

This Chen Xixian reported his identity as a member of the house, knowing that Yang Jing was promoted, but he didn't even bother to use the word "welcome", he was polite on the surface, but in fact he refused to be thousands of miles away, and he seemed to be a little reluctant, and even the surface work was so perfunctory.

Yang Jing had already noticed that he was not good, and he was not quiet, after all, this was the territory of the Empress Dowager Yang, and the official family asked him to come, so it was natural for Yang Jing to be angry.

Yang Jing didn't care about this, what he cared about was the overall situation, and it was harmless to make a small fuss, so he said to Chen Xixian: "It turned out that Lord Chen Guan came to greet him in person, I don't know if this official is lucky enough to see Song Yan Zhenren?"

Since the other party is not friendly, Yang Jing doesn't have to pretend to be on the spot, just get straight to the point.

Although this Chen Xixian is an old fox, he can't be the master of Longshan Temple, if Yang Jing has to deal with it one by one, he doesn't know how long it will be delayed.

Chen Xixian saw that Yang Jing was unceremoniously, his face suddenly became a little gloomy, and he said to Yang Jing: "Songyan Zhenren is in retreat, it is inconvenient to meet guests, Lord Yang can go to the temple to rest for a few days and enjoy the scenery of my Taoist Cave Mansion." ”

Yang Jing also knew that this Song Yan was deliberately putting up a fight, so he said to Chen Xixian: "That's fine, then it's bothering Chen Guan to lead the way." ”

That Chen Xixian smiled and said: "Lord Yang, my Longshan Temple is a beautiful Taoist holy land, ordinary believers enter the mountain gate, but they need to untie their swords and remove their armor, please ask your lord and many servants to hand over the blades to the disciples of Zhike for safeke." ”

Although this Chen Xixian was polite, he had hidden a mystery, which made Yang Jing frown.

Chen Xixian regarded Yang Jing as an ordinary believer, so Yang Jing had to follow the customs of the countryside and follow the rules of Taoism.

The so-called believers refer to those laity who have not undergone the ceremonies recognized by Taoism, and since they are laity and enter the Taoist temple, they should obey the arrangements of the Taoist temple.

Yang Jing knew that Song Yan was going to deal with him, and if he, Liu Han and the others unloaded their weapons, they would inevitably suffer losses, and this sword and armor would naturally not be handed over.

In addition to believers, there are also laymen, Taoist priests, and Dharma masters, who are those who have undergone the ritual of taking refuge in Taoism, believe in Taoist ancestors, and take precepts, and are official Taoist disciples.

As for the Taoist priest, it is the official Taoist priest who has passed on the degree and put the degree, that is, the certificate of the Taoist priest.

Yang Jing is the original generation of the Nanwu faction, and Zong Yun, whose original name is Zhang Benling, is a senior brother, and Song Yan Zhenren is the same generation as Dong Shangzhi.

If Yang Jing uses the identity of a Taoist priest to refute, then he will visit as a Taoist priest, giving up his official identity, and it will be even more difficult to deal with these people, and since you admit that you are a Taoist priest, you should act according to the rules of the Taoist sect.

It was Yang Jing who thought for a while, and then said to Chen Xixian: "Lord Chen Guan, this official is here for official business this time, not a private visit, the Imperial City Division has a clear order not to unarm without authorization, and I hope the Lord will forgive me." ”

Chen Xixian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to Yang Jing: "Lord Yang, this is making it difficult for the old Taoist to make a good life, there are rules in the view, Song Yan Zhenren mentions the face, that is, the commander of the front division of the palace, Lord Yan Mingzhi, who came to visit earlier, also needs to untie the sword, we are outside the place, I really can't stand the smell of the sword, and I also ask Lord Yang to untie the sword and unload the armor, and then enter the mountain gate." ”

Yang Jing took a step forward and said to the old man: "In this way, I, Yang Jing, am a dignified official of the imperial court, and I am the governor of the world, but I really can't enter this Longshan Temple?"
