Thirty miles to the north, you will see the eaves and arch halls built of white stone in front of you, from a distance, the mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, as if it is a white jade palace in the cloud mountain, Xiao Yan thought: This must be the Yuqing Palace.

The young Taoist priest took her to the heavy building hall after the Yuqing Palace, but there was a thatched house hidden in the bamboo forest, and a circle of chrysanthemums, hollyhocks, jasmine, etc. were planted around the small courtyard, and a purple peach tree was planted in the middle of the courtyard, and the branches were hung with vermilion purple peach fruits in the shape of pears. Under the tree, on a bamboo couch, there is a pure white and non-variegated donkey, which is clattering on a purple peach fruit. Xiao Yan's eyes blinked twice, the donkey seems to eat grass, right? It is said that he also loves carrots...... Do you eat fruit?

There is also a large bamboo couch next to the white donkey, and an old man with white hair and white beard is sitting on the couch with a calculation plan, and the wide sleeves of his robe hang down to the bamboo couch.

The wide sleeves were embroidered with nine circles of silver thread—either the head of the sect or the elder.

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the pure white donkey that was "clicking" and gnawing on the purple peach fruit, and his face showed a strange color.

Could it be that this is the famous "Zhang Guolao"?

But she came to see Yuqing's master......

"Zhang Guolao" is the Yuqing Sect?

Oh no, Yuqing is "Zhang Guolao"?

Xiao Yan's eyes blinked twice.

She knew that the legendary "Eight Immortals" were actually the eight innate masters of the Daomen, but no one told her that the "Zhang Guo Lao" who rode the donkey upside down was the Yuqing Sect!

Xiao Yan felt that if there was a mirror in front of her, she would definitely be able to reflect her stunned face.

The young Taoist priest took her through the flower gate and entered the courtyard, bowed silently to the head of the sect, turned back to Xiao Yan, signaled her to wait first, and turned to leave.

Xiao Yan stood quietly on the side and waited.

She looked at the white hair, and remembered in her heart the anecdote that the pavilion master said about the Yuqing Palm Sect.

This master is a typical late bloomer, he began to cultivate at the age of ten, and he did not enter the extreme realm until he was sixty-five years old, and he was already full of gray hair, but after five years, he entered the cave true realm, and ten years into the congenital, and he was a legend of the Daomenhttp://.5./books/41/41857/

http://.5./books/41/41857/

Vase male god [entertainment industry].

If you add the aura of "Zhang Guolao", it will be even more legendary.

Yuqing's arithmetic calculations took a long time, and when Xiao Yan entered the courtyard, her shadow grew obliquely on the west side, and then the shadow moved towards the center little by little, until it shrank to her feet, and then stretched to the east little by little...... Chenguang went from midnight to mid-afternoon, when Yuqing put down his calculations, raised his head as if he had just remembered, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou has been waiting for a long time." ”

Xiao Yan didn't have the slightest impatience to wait for a long time, and said respectfully with a long bow: "Junior Xiao Wunian visited Yuqing Zhangjiao. ”

"Young man, you have patience." Yuqing Zhangjiao smiled and beckoned her to sit on the bamboo chair next to her, "It's too pyrotechnic to make tea, please eat a purple peach, you are born with a good taste." ”

As soon as I raised my hand, a red purple peach fruit flew down from the purple peach tree, and was wrapped in a cloud of water mist in mid-air, washing the pear-shaped fruit to be red and shiny, extremely clean, the water mist instantly turned into wind, taking away the water stains on the fruit, when it fell, it had been evenly split into eight petals, like a flower blooming on the lotus-shaped ice tray that weathered into water and instantly froze, the ice tray contained the fruit and fell, and the ground suddenly arched the soil, just in the blink of an eye, a square bamboo table was formed.

The ice tray landed steadily on the bamboo table.

Xiao Yan blinked, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the bamboo table - it is indeed bamboo, not soil! And it is the golden green bamboo that I saw in the bamboo forest when I came, and the green vertical lines on the golden bamboo can be clearly seen!!

Xiao Yan's face showed admiration.

There are still remnants of undissipated rules in the air.

This is not the kind of divine magic of the Oghuz Temple, but the transformation of the law of the five elements, but there should be similarities in it.

Xiao Yan quietly realized, then she stretched out her right hand, and gradually a cloud of mist wrapped her hand, and then the mist was blown away by the wind, washing her hand, but there was a cloud of mist between her fingers, which gradually condensed into an ice fork and held it in her hand.

She forked a purple peach with an ice fork, chewed it in her mouth, and felt sweet and no residue, with a sense of lubrication that melts in her mouth. ”

The common people respectfully call Zhang Guo Lao Guo Lao Guolao, and Xiao Yan learned it once.

Yuqing taught Xu Dale and praised her: "The true qi is well controlled, and the Dao of the transformation of the five elements has also comprehended three or four points. ”

Xiao Yan glanced at the lotus-shaped ice tray, the silk veins of the lotus flowers in the ice tray were all lifelike, not to mention the golden blue bamboo woven into several and exactly the same bamboo patterns in an instant, that was a deep grasp of the Five Elements Dao rules and the precise control of true qi, this kind of strength is far from being reached by her now, she said sincerely: "Compared with the master, Wu Nian is still far behind." ”

Yuqing Palm Sect smiled kindly, "I'm just taking advantage of my age, how old are you, and when you reach my age, your achievements are immeasurable." ”

Xiao Yan was not humble, and arched his hand: "I don't want to thank you for your encouragement." ”

She doesn't make people feel proud when she talks like this, but she is confident and sincere.

Yuqing Palm Sect laughed.

He stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "We 'Eight Immortals', you have already seen the four." ”

Xiao Yan responded: "Yes." If you hear the sound of the flute and the singing, it is considered "seen".

Presumably, the divine consciousness of the Yuqing Palm Sect was covered, and he already knew about her situation on the road.

Yuqing Palm Sect said in a condensed voice: "In the future, when you reach the end of the world, you will also meet the two ancestors of Kong Muzi and Zhengyangzi......"

Xiao Yan has a solemn expression, Kong Muzi and Zhengyangzi are famous congenitals in the history of martial arts, the former is the prototype of the "Tie Guan Li", the head of the eight immortals in folklore, and is the congenital of the Warring States Period; Zhengyangzi is the prototype of the Taoist congenital who was active in the Han Dynasty, that is, the legend of the Eight Immortalshttp://.5./books/41/41858/

http://.5./books/41/41858/

I can see ghosts in my left eye in the Red Mansion. - Both of them have died on the road to the end of the world.

The previously relaxed atmosphere suddenly became calm.

Yuqing Palm Sect said: "Do you know, why do we Daomen Sanqing Palace want to shape and promote this Eight Immortals in the world? ”

Xiao Yan was thinking about this question on the way, and she vaguely had an answer in her heart, and when she saw Yuqing Sect solemnly mention it, this answer was clearer in her mind.

"According to the younger generations, its greatest significance may be to tell people that people can become gods."

Man can become a god.

God is not unattainable.

Gods can also be cultivated by ordinary people.

"Hahaha!" Yuqing Zhangjiao stroked his beard and laughed, "Okay, that's a good point." ”

……

"Child, work hard, and you will be the god of the world in the future."

……

Xiao Yan said goodbye to Yuqing Palm, and her mind was still haunting the last words of Yuqing Palm, she looked at the Cuiping Peak of the distant mountains, and then looked at the flowing clouds in the high sky, the clear blue sky, and a kind of pride was born in her heart.

She began to sing aloud.

sang the human immortal of "The Legend of Guo Lao": "I am a human immortal, sucking the dew of the world, drinking the wind of the world at night, wearing hemp, riding a white donkey like a star." Traveling in the North Sea in the twilight, the world is swimming for half a day. …… True to the Tao, do not choose people, a Dan heart to the Tao. Mo Yan Dao is rare, and his kung fu is not deep. Someone asked me about the cultivation of the Fa, and only cultivated the heart and cultivated the body. …… I forgot my heart and was happy, and I crossed the water and clouds to confess. ……”

The singing voice is clear and melodious, with a vigor from the world, and a quiet and pure untainted world.

Then there was a flute sound that rose with the song, and there was a bamboo board to beat the knots and harmonize.

Those are the two Daojun, "Han Xiangzi" and "Lan Caihe".

Xiao Yan's singing voice is still clear and melodious, not flattered by the accompaniment of the two congenital Taoists, the singing and the flute bamboo board are in harmony, if the clouds in the high sky, and like the clear blue sky, pure, vast, make people forget their hearts and delight, and naturally give birth to the heart of "crossing the water and crossing the clouds to confess".

Under a huge ginkgo tree on the distant mountain, there are two innate-looking Dao monarchs, who are playing hanging chess, and a black and white chess piece floats between the two, and the elder of the Shangqing Palace, Dao Jingzi, who is standing in the west, said while falling: "This son has a clear heart and is not disturbed by the outside world, which is good." Dao Chenzi, the elder of the Taiqing Palace to the east of him, said: "Of course, the disciples taught by Mozun are good. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, both with satisfaction in their eyes.

The people of the future star path, of course, they have to take a look.

…… All good boys.

Both of them thought so at the same time.

In addition to Xiao Yan, there is of course another person in this "capital".

***

Xiao Yan didn't know that someone was commenting on her, she sang all the way, went to the Shangqing Palace in the west, finished a song of immortals in the world, bowed to the southwest and northwest, and said: "Thank you." ”

A young Taoist priest from the west came to meet him, his eyes were amazed for a moment, he paused with some hesitation, made a mockery from afar, lowered his eyebrows and said: "Grandmaster Wunian, poor Taoist Zhiguan, I invite you to enter Cuiyun Peak on the order of the Qing Palm Sect." ”

Xiao Yan said, "There is labor", and went west with the young Taoist priest.

Walking out of a hundred miles, you will see the mountain range in front of you, the main peak in the middle is high and steep, the mountains are lush and green, green like clouds, Xiao Yan thought that this should be "Cuiyun Peak". Seeing that the mountain was still a long way away in front of me, I galloped for about 200 miles before I reached the bottom of Cuiyun Peakhttp://.5./books/41/41861/

http://.5./books/41/41861/

A handsome wife who travels through the stars. Here is the main peak of the Shangqing Palace, the main hall and the pavilion with the palace are built in the middle of the mountain, many halls can see the traces of the new construction, because the original Shangqing Palace betrayed the civil war of the Sanqing Palace, a large area of the palace became a ruin in the fight, the newly built palace lost the original atmosphere of ancient vicissitudes, but it reveals a different kind of fresh air, the light green building gives people a sense of vitality that ushers in the early spring after experiencing frost and snow. - Maybe ruining miè is not necessarily a bad thing, Xiao Yan thought to himself, it was like going to be stale, but more energetic.

A group of disciples in the square in front of the main Qing Hall are practicing swords, Xiao Yan swept away, they were all young people in their twenties and thirties, she followed the young Taoist priest into the atrium of the Shangqing Palace, and the Taoist priests who met on the road were also young, no more than forty - it seems that the newly built Shangqing Palace is not only a young building, but also a young person, of course, it may also be that she did not meet the old man, but the betrayal of the Shangqing Palace from the Sanqing Palace should have pulled away a lot of old people and backbones, although the newly established Shangqing Palace selected a group of outstanding disciples from the outer gate to enter the inner door, But it takes time to grow up and become a backbone, so naturally there are more young disciples.

The young Taoist priest took her from the mountain behind the temple along the stone steps to go up more than 300 zhang, to the top of Cuiyun Peak, there is a pavilion built on the peak, the plaque is three words "Huying Pavilion", the pen is simple and natural, Xiao Yan thought to himself, "a breath and a breath are natural, the breeze washes the dust, and the call is about to touch this meaning", then I saw a green robe Taoist sitting in the pavilion, I felt inconspicuous when I saw it, the pavilion was more eye-catching than this person, and I still felt that this person was inconspicuous when I approached, and it was simple and ordinary, just like my eyes swept over a tree and a grass would not look closely, But Xiao Yan was shocked when he realized that he had ignored this Taoist - this is not ordinary! She can't help but raise her eyes to look at the three words "Huying Pavilion", the pen is simple and natural, and the breath is welcoming and inward, naturally echoing, thinking of "a breath and a breath are natural", her heart is enlightened, and the long breath seems to be integrated into a rhythm...... It is the beating rhythm of the pulse of heaven and earth, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the earth is in spring and autumn, the four seasons change, and the grass and trees are withered.

The young Taoist priest's eyes were shocked: This Sect Master of Wunian actually ...... Just had an epiphany?!

Shangqing Zhangjiao smiled slightly, waved his hand, and the young Taoist priest bowed and turned to leave.

Xiao Yan woke up from his epiphany and felt that his understanding of the Yin and Yang Dao and the endless life had taken another step.

She bowed to the pavilion chief, "Thank you for your advice." ”

If it weren't for the Shangqing Palm Sect sitting in this pavilion, the aura of the Tao on his body would correspond to this "Huying Pavilion", and Xiao Yan would never have had this epiphany just by looking at the three words of the stone plaque.

…… This trip to Daomen is really rewarding.

Xiao Yan sincerely thanks.

Shangqing Zhangjiao beckoned her to enter the pavilion, an old and a young man stood on the edge of the east pavilion threshold, looking at it, the mountains under the eyes, the foot of the foot, the water under the mountain is like a belt, through the forest reckless, meandering, flowing through the hillside tea garden, green orchard, Tianchou Lushe...... It's like a drawing, and this drawing is surprisingly big, Xiao Yan can't help but think: This is the area of Sanqing Palace?

She knows that the Shennong Domain is very large, there was Yunmeng Daze in the pre-Qin era, 18,000 miles, this Shennong Domain is the main body of Yunmeng Daze, and the Daomen is hidden in the vast forests and swamps and mountains of the Shennong Domain, how big is this area? Xiao Yan didn't know before, but now he has a concept: at least one-third of the Shennong Domain is in the Sanqing Palace. The other two-thirds must also be under the control of the Sanqing Palace.

Shangqing Zhangjiao said: "There are 100,000 households under this mountain, some of which have lived here for generations, and have lived here for two thousand years, and countless capable people have come out of here. Our Daomen, if it is established from the Sanqing Palace, it will only be 1,400 years. But when it comes to Taoism, it is inherited from the ancient Wu clan. In the era of Emperor Yan, the Dao Gate was established, and the 'Dao' is the way of inheriting witches, and the sword and magic spells are all inherited from the Daomen...... If you say that Zhongzhou Zhudao debuts, this is good. In the pre-Qin era, Lao Tzu preached, Yi Yin established the Sanqing Palace, but the Taoist gate at this time was not the Taoist gate of the ancient era: the way of the sword has been separated, and the Dharma Dao has also gone north and south to the two branches, the north is Sawu, and the south is Zhuwu. Zhu Wu also out of the Pudu Road, that is, the Buddha Gate. This is in line with the words of Guangchengzi, the founder of Taoism: the Tao cannot be unified. ……”

Xiao Yan only then knew that the beginning of the Daomen was the sect of ten thousand Daos, and the intention of the great powers in the Yandi era to establish the Daomen must be not only to preserve and inherit the ancient Daomen, but also to pass on the mission of the Star Destiny and the Heavenly Road from generation to generation, and then the Daomen was divided, but this mission was inherited along with the branches of each Dao - so there is the unremitting Sanqing Palace and the Kendo in the Central Plains, the Shakya Buddha Gate going north to the Central Plains, and the unremitting Xing Xing life of the Sawu Temple for thousands of years.

The Tao cannot be unified, when it spreads like a sparkhttp://.5./books/41/41859/

http://.5./books/41/41859/

My wife is a domineering president. When the spark is vigorous, it is the time to gather and burn the prairie fire.

Shangqing Zhangjiao said: "The human race is better than the god race, it is desire, man is evolved from ape beasts, and the bloodline is engraved with the desire to survive and constantly grab, which makes the human race fight but also forge ahead, and the 'Tao' is to continue to split, evolve and grow in this internal struggle and progress." ”

Xiao Yan nodded and realized that because of people's desires and the competition for interests, the Daomen will inevitably move from unity to division, so "the Tao cannot be unified". And strife is not entirely a bad thing, without fighting there is no advance, although the "Dao" is in danger of being destroyed and scattered, but the growth opportunities of the "Dao" are also contained in it.

……

When Xiao Yan went down the mountain, there was an extra bracelet on her left wrist, which was a gift from the Shangqing Palm Sect, which was made from the hardest diamond meteorite among the meteorites that fell from the starry sky, but the most precious thing for the martial arts master was not its material, but the talisman carving on it.

Xiao Yan knew that the new Shangqing Sect Master was a talisman master.

When she was in the Sword Pavilion, she heard the fifth uncle talk about this new master of the Taoist sect, he used to be the elder of the Fu Palace, and he was also one of the only two elders in the Shangqing Palace who did not betray, but he had not been blind before, and he was not outstanding among the elders of the Shangqing Palace, and the fifth uncle said that the Taiqing Sect was the most "old and cunning" - Xiao Yan heard this and sweated for a moment - to be able to trust this inconspicuous elder who was also the former Shangqing Palace, it can be seen that this is not simple, he can be competent to be in charge, and his strength is definitely not what he appeared in front of people, The fifth uncle even guessed: This Dao Suzi Sect Master may be a Divine Rune Master, even if it is not, it should be close to the realm of a Divine Rune Master.

Xiao Yan touched the square flat bracelet on his hand, white jade is general, after refining, it is not like a diamond at all, the carving on the bracelet is beautiful and mysterious, it looks like a flower and bird pattern, but it is not recognizable if you distinguish it carefully, Xiao Yan's true qi probed in, and she felt that there was a powerful and vast power hidden in it. Thinking that this might be a rune pattern, she couldn't help but touch it again with some excitement, and when Shangqing Zhangjiao sent her, she smiled and said, "For you to escape", she felt that this Qianli escape bracelet should not only have a good name, maybe it is really a thousand miles away - but unfortunately it can only be used once. If you want to use it once, it's enough, and when it's critical, you can save your life, and if you're too greedy, you'll be struck by lightning.

Xiao Yan went down to the middle of the mountain, and there was another young Taoist priest waiting for her, taking her to the Taiqing Palace in the north.

Taiqing Palace is the head of the three palaces, the three palaces stand like the word "product", the Taiqing Palace is located in the north of the word "mouth", located on the main peak of Tianmu Mountain.

The young Taoist priest led Xiao Yan to the holy water spring in the mountain behind the main peak.

The Taiqing Palm Sect cooks tea by the holy water spring.

The holy water spring is famous in the world, but because in the Taiqing Palace, people in the tea ceremony only hear its name and do not know its taste, when the tea saint Lu Yu or through guò wife Princess Yuzhang took the door of Shizong, only to be able to get a jar of holy water spring just taken out in the immeasurable view of Qingdu Mountain outside the Shennong territory, immediately cook tea in the view, and praise "worthy of the holy water in the spring, wash away the red dust and hustle and bustle, and the heart is as clear as clear blue".

Xiao Yan is now drinking the clear tea of this holy water spring, his heart is like a clear sky without a shadow, as quiet as a cold spring without waves, and his consciousness and soul have been washed, there is a sense of transparency and wisdom.

Taiqing Zhangjiao said that this is not the Chengbi tea mentioned in the tea scripture, but the Chengling tea.

Cheng Ling ...... Transparent and wise, Xiao Yan said in his heart, this tea is really worthy of its name.

…… It's a pity that there are too few.

There were only six cups of tea, and she drank three cups, but she was still unsatisfied.

Taiqing Zhangjiao pointed to the two old tea trees by the spring and said: "They are longer than the age of Sanqing Palace, about two thousand years old, and they only produce less than ten catties of tea every year. ”

Xiao Yan immediately felt that the three cups he had drunk were really a lot.

She stood up and bowed to the Taiqing Palm Sect.

After taking a seat, continue to drink tea, this time it is not the old tea tree of Shengquan, but the new spring tea of Tianmu Peak, which is also a good tea. Xiao Yan drank tea, listened to the palm teaching about ancient things, Taoist affairs, and unconsciously became more and more west, and the clear cold spring reflected the orange red of the sunset.

When she was leaving, Taiqing Zhangjiao handed her a jade box and said with a smile: "I have time to drink tea with Zhiyuanhttp://.5./books/41/41860/

http://.5./books/41/41860/

I'm sorry for wearing the wrong one. ”

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then responded, "Yes." ”

I thought to myself, what does it mean to teach Taiqing Zhang?

Knowing her friendship with her sister, so she invited them to tea together?

Because you value your sisters, you invite them to tea together?

Xiao Yan saw Taiqing Zhangjiao leave, opened the jade box and looked at it, and was taken aback.

There is a box of tea leaves in the jade box, the roots are like jade buds, clear and fragrant, and there are silver threads on the edge - it is the tea of the old tea tree of Shengquan that "only produces less than ten catties of tea every year".

Although the jade box is not large, it can also hold half a catty.

Xiao Yan thought about it for a while and couldn't help but smile.

…… This tea may have been given to her sister by Taiqing Zhangjiao.

After all, Sanqing Palace is so big and there are so many important people, how can it be divided into less than ten catties of tea? No matter how much the Taiqing Sect values its sisters, it's not good to be too partial, that is, to pull hatred.

Xiao Yan thought in his heart, this Chengling Tea is only drunk by ordinary people, and only people in the martial arts drink it is more helpful, so that the divine consciousness and soul can quench impurities, and the spiritual wisdom is transparent - Taiqing Palm teaches it to my sister, is it that my sister has already entered the Tao?

Since Xiao Yan left Chang'an in the first battle with King Wu, because he did not return to Hexi, the communication with Shen Qingyi was cut off, and then the two met in Chang'an and then separated, carefully calculated, she and Shen Qingyi have not communicated with each other for three years, and they all learned about her situation from the fourth brother, and the sister would not tell the fourth brother about her situation in the medicine hall...... If there are any major changes in the past three years, of course Xiao Yan doesn't know.

Thinking that Shen Qingyi might enter the Dao, Xiao Yan was happy in his heart.

There are three thousand avenues, and Dan Dao is also one of the three thousand.

My sister is no longer the son of the Xiao family, and the Dao Sect will definitely pass on her Dan Dao, and with her intelligent wisdom and natural understanding, Xiao Yan has no doubt that she can enter the Dan Dao smoothly, and she may also be a genius who amazes the Medicine Palace—otherwise, the Taiqing Sect would not attach so much importance to it, and give her sister resources in such a roundabout way.

Xiao Yan was happy in her heart, this joy even overpowered the trouble of possibly facing Shen Qingyi's feelings, she decided to go to the Medicine Hall to see Shen Qingyi first, and then go to Lu Daojun to ask for advice on the world of desire-first bring the tea to her sister, maybe she will comprehend it with Lu Daojun for a long time?

Xiao Yan walked out of the Holy Water Spring, and there was a forty-year-old Taoist priest waiting for her outside, who should have been instructed by the Taiqing Sect, and asked, "Is Grandmaster Wunian going to Lu Daojun's Pure Yang Residence, or is this going to the Medicine Palace?" ”

Xiao Yan looked at the sky and said, "I want to go to the Medicine Hall to visit the Yuan Daoist first, and there is Lao to lead the way." ”

"The medicine hall is in Shennong Mountain, and it is still three hundred miles away from Tianmu Mountain." The Taoist priest said, leading Xiao Yan down the mountain, because it was getting late, the speed of the two of them was very fast, and within a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the foot of the main peak of Shennong Mountain.

Shennong Mountain is also composed of mountains and mountains, the main peak is Shennong Peak, the main hall group of the medicine hall is built on the Shennong Peak, and the medicine garden and the medicine room and the Dan room are all over the peaks. "Zhiyuan Daoist lives on this side of the main hall." The Taoist priest led Xiao Yan up the mountain, and soon saw the temple of the twilight Chinese medicine hall. Because the disciples of Zhifeng had already spread the word, Xiao Yan met a young female Taoist priest who came to pick her up.

"Grandmaster Wunian, I am Songyin, the Taoist attendant beside the Zhiyuan Daoist." The female Taoist priest made a mockery.

Xiao Yan smiled at her, "There is labor." "The smile is also bright in the twilight.

Songyin's heart jumped, and he immediately calmed his eyebrows, thinking that the appearance of this old friend of the Taoist Master was really outstanding.

Xiao Yan lowered her smile, and as Songyin went to the back of the hall, the joy in her heart also sank, and as the distance approached, she felt that her breathing was a little stagnant.

……
