Chapter Ninety-Three: Injustice Everywhere
The eleven people in the hall looked at each other, and after a while, one of them smiled: "Fellow Daoists, this errand is a beautiful errand, cleaning the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is not only noble, but also able to read the scriptures to the full, which is very beneficial!"
When everyone present thought about it, they all thought it was and went together.
Wang Cunye followed behind, but there was confusion in his heart.
There are several peaks separated by small peaks in the west mountain, and everyone can't fly, so they all go far down, Wang Cunye hesitated a little in his heart, and his pace slowed down.
On this mountain, there are pavilions and caves everywhere, these scenery are embellished, the ups and downs are staggered, the mountain road is left and right, there is also a dense forest, the wind passes through, is filtered by the shade of the trees, loses the heat and carries the coolness.
Looking at the clouds in the distance, thousands of trees are lush, hidden in the middle - such a scene Wang Cunye had no intention of watching, to a stone forest, heard a sound in the distance, Wang Cunye suddenly felt a move in his heart, walked a few steps quickly, then found a hidden stone, stopped.
After a while, I heard two Taoists coming over and talking.
"Senior brother, the new disciples in the hall just now, the last batch of errands are good, as long as they sweep, they can get the monthly salary, and they can also read the Dao scrolls to the full, I am really envious!"
But there was another person who laughed: "What do you know, this errand is good, we all want to do it, but we are us, they are them, who are they? ”
"Whether it's collecting Xingsha Gold, killing sea fish, or something else, there are instructions, you can polish your body and mind, and earn the master's honors, but the last group of people, although the errand is leisurely, is also limited in location, it is good to find time to listen to the elder's preaching, and it is delusional to take the task!"
"The Daomen assessment is Dao karma and fighting, even if you read more Dao papers, what achievements do you have in a short period of time?
"Ah?!, in this case, these people's assessments are going to be finished?"
"Hmm...... Although there may be a turnaround, there is no hope for nine out of nine, look, ten people have been eliminated all at once, this is really pitiful!"
"Didn't you say that you could choose your own mission without being sent?"
"If this is the case, then it is a person who has a bad heart and a disobedient person, who will cultivate it? Even if everyone does not say it, this person will be cut off from the path, let alone three times, and it will not be possible to teach the Tao thirty times. ”
"I suffered a loss this time, there is hope next time, if I disobey the way, hum, this can be regarded as a way of conscience!"
Hearing this, Wang Cunye's heart couldn't help sinking.
After the two of them went, Wang Cunye quickly followed, chasing the crowd in front of him.
The main peak is towering, the mountain range winds for hundreds of miles, the surrounding peaks are in it, originally these peaks are difficult to walk, see the mountain is not far away, the road is difficult, but now there is an obvious road to open up, the main mountain road is three zhang wide, and the dense steps stretch for thousands of steps.
On the way to the adjacent peak, the mountain road between the two mountains was built, and there was a zhang Xu wide, but even so, the mountain wind blew, crumbling, and it was difficult to go up without a certain martial arts.
When Wang Cunye quickly followed, finally caught up before arriving, crossed the mountain road, and saw a memorial arch, two pillars carved with crane patterns, and three ancient seals were written on the front: "Xishan Residence"
"Xishan Ju has arrived, look for the cave, let's go!" said a group of people, passed the torii to a large building complex, and saw that there were people in the outermost hall, so they walked over.
This is a Taoist with pale temples, hearing the voice, he opened his eyes, looked at this group of young Taoists, and had some understanding, he couldn't help but feel a trace of regret, or said, "Who are you?"
"On the orders of the elders, we came to the Scripture Pavilion to clean up. "Eleven people are all guilty.
Seeing that they were still full of joy, this old Taoist was still unclear about the matter, only a faint melancholy, but thinking about his duties, he nodded slightly, and said calmly: "I already know this, you don't need to go to see the elders again, there are a total of fifteen scripture pavilions in Xishan Residence, which one can you go to by lot." ”
"The winner of the lottery has a cloud card, this cloud card can not be lost, no matter where to choose, take the task, all rely on this record, you can pick a vacant room near the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to stay, you can read the first floor of the Tibetan scriptures at will, but you are not allowed to enter the second layer. ”
"Every time you use the cloud card to enter, and when you apply for it, you can't slack off. I can get a monthly salary every month, and it is also here that I have shops and hotels nearby. ”
"There is no personal fighting, no expulsion of the doer, no death of the murderer, and no humiliation of the servant, this is not the place where you can use Fuwei for your own use - you all heard clearly?"
Eleven people all bowed and responded: "Yes!"
The lottery is very simple, draw one at will, draw the number, and get a cloud card from the hand of this Taoist.
Wang Cunye took one casually and said, "No. 7!"
I hugged my name and identity again, and I saw that this person was the same as just now, and when I touched it with my hand, it emitted a faint light, and when the light dissipated, I handed it over.
After taking the cloud card, he saw that it was painted with cloud patterns, and saw that this person didn't want to talk anymore, so he left here.
Only then did I realize that although the "West Mountain Residence" is far from the main peak, it is not small, from top to bottom, there are continuous buildings, and these buildings are all built of stones, from top to bottom are centered on a hall, and there are wing rooms distributed in a fan shape.
And there are not only Taoists in it, but also ordinary people, who can come in are agile with their hands and feet, and have practiced some martial arts, but they are responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Wang Cunye suddenly felt that this was normal, how could there be no food, clothing, housing and transportation, maybe only after becoming an earth immortal, can he not eat or drink!
Thinking of the fields and dwellings I saw on the flying boat, I am afraid that there are also thousands of hectares of fertile land and hundreds of thousands of people under this mountain, and this is the leader directly under the Daomen.
Wang Cunye turned around a few times, only to find a stone hall, the plaque is the No. 7 Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, see that there are three layers, immediately entered, when entering a slight layer of membrane, just in the cloud card flashed, there was no obstacle to enter.
This is very similar to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Dao Palace, there is no one in it, and the area is very magnificent, except that the bookshelf is not a jade scroll, but a silk scroll.
These had scrolls, rolled up and piled up on the shelves, and at a glance, the shelves filled the hall with silk scrolls, at least several thousand volumes.
Wang Cunye took out a scroll at random, unfolded six feet long, two feet wide, each word is hand-copied, only the thumb is large, but the words are clear, and the calligraphy is extremely beautiful.
“...... The mountain god is eternal, the Taoist priest wears it, enters the mountains and forests, and the spirits are guarded, don't dare to be a son...... The Daojun edict is invisible, so the gods come out...... Only the immortals are famous in the mountain, and they are not allowed to be heard......"
Wang Cunye watched silently, knowing the sea, the turtle shell spewed out a breath of red gas, and instantly saw the words enter, turning into a mass of breath, and when this volume was finished, it formed a word, the word was golden and brilliant, and a trace of mystery also flowed in his heart.
It's just that this time is different from before, after this true text is condensed, I see it gradually become smaller and sink slightly into the turtle shell, and at this time, the turtle shell will light up slightly, and then extinguish in a blink of an eye.
After a while, the true text was produced from the turtle shell, but there was a faint mutation, Wang Cunye just had this feeling, but he couldn't see where the specific mutation was, so he saw that the true text slowly sank into the "spirit pool".
Originally, there was only one true text in the spirit pool, but it was condensed when it broke through the three turns, and it looked like a stone, planted in the spirit pool, and this true text was added to it, but it was like a small pebble.
The true qi in the body has formed a complete cycle, communicating with the acupuncture points of the whole body with the external aura, slowly incorporating into the body, integrating into the true qi circulation, and then refining into its own true qi.
And when passing through the spirit pool, it is transformed into mana little by little.
When I looked at it, I saw that it was a foot wide, and when it was opened, it was only half a foot, but now it has doubled in size.
Perhaps it is completely laid by the authentic Liuyang diagram, or it has been purified by the turtle shell, the red water in this spiritual pool is very pure, and there is no filth, and this true text falls, this true text slightly emits a faint light, and it is exchanged with the pool water from time to time, showing more clear and pure.
In the spirit pool, there are now two true texts, Wang Cunkai looked at these changes, although he didn't know what it was, but he had a feeling that it was very beneficial, so he took out the second volume and read it again.
In the same way, the words are engraved into the inside, turning into a mass of breath, and when this volume is finished, it is formed into a word, the same golden light, octagonal hanging, and a trace of mystery also flows in the heart, and then falls on the turtle shell, and a moment gives birth to a fall into the pool water.
It's just a roll, I don't know the time.
In a hall, the water mirror slowly unfolded, and hundreds of disciples were recorded one by one, and the water mirror was extinguished in a moment, and there was silence in the hall.
The hall master was sitting in the middle, and he saw a Taoist priest come forward and lean over to speak.
The hall master smiled: "You don't have to say, I know what you have to say, looking at their various arrangements, whether civil or martial, left or right, there are some misleading children...... Isn't it?"
The man said, "Yes!"
"Your straightforward surname has not changed until now!" the hall master couldn't help laughing, and after a moment he got up and paced, and the smile gradually faded, and in a moment it was a long sigh.
"There are ten people in one state, there are three hundred and sixty people in thirty-six states in the world, and there are twenty in small countries, plus the quota in each Dao Sect direct leader, there are more than five hundred people!"
"Every true seed needs to be condensed by the Earth Immortals, and every time it costs the Origin and Dao Rhyme, what a price is this?"
When this person heard this, he immediately sweated: "Yes!"
"I'm not talking to you!" said the hall master with a smile: "Three hundred years ago, condensing the Dao seed was to polish the Dao heart by oneself, and there was often only one out of a thousand people. ”
"It's just that the situation is different now, and it was given by the teacher, and the proportion has become about one-tenth, which is a last resort to pull out the seedlings. ”
Speaking of this, the hall master swallowed a mouthful of bitterness, and his face became gloomy: "What kind of grace is this? And some people are still too little, and if they can't get one, they hate the heavens and hate to go out of the Dao Gate! Hmph, if you have the ability, you will go back and grind out the true seed by yourself, and become an immortal!"
And when he said this, all the ways of the temple were not condemned.
The hall lord took it away angrily and sighed: "No matter what, there are only ten Dao seeds for more than a hundred people, there are always people who are demoted, and there are always people who are disappointed, for example, this cleaning library pavilion, there are always people who go, not these eleven, there are other eleven." ”
"This library has very little practical experience, but the next batch will not continue to be arranged, and this collection of books is to make up, if they press their hearts, they can read carefully within these three months, and they can go back to take a deep foundation, and next time they will be very sure, if they hate heaven and resentment people, such a disciple should not do it!"
Speaking of this, the hall master smiled coldly: "I see that there are still some people who don't know, and they have passed down the order to discuss the library pavilion and a few bad errands, so that they can hear it, and I will see how they deal with these obviously 'unfair' errands!"
"Yes!" the leaders in the hall responded.
