Chapter 21: Kan Ligong

It was early in the morning again, and Lin Junxuan's room was filled with a strong fragrance of ink......

Reading, grinding ink, laying paper, paperweight, dipping ink...... Lin Junxuan grabbed the full brush, only to feel that his heart was light and satisfied, and there was a faint pleasure, like a drop of dew dripping from the tip of a pine needle in the morning.

The wrist is pressed and shaken on the long rice paper, the wrist is lucky, the pen is a dragon and a snake, and the ordinary brush is held in Lin Junxuan's hands as if he has his own life, and he is alive. The pen started and fell, and ten words were already on the paper.

"Think twice, don't look back!"

Putting the brush on the inkstone, Lin Junxuan smiled and read out the ten words on the rice paper, and the ten words ran through the back of the paper, with a thick and atmospheric artistic conception.

When the disciples left, the mysterious master gave each of them a sentence, and it was these ten words that were presented to Lin Junxuan. 'Think twice, never look back', which means that you should think through before doing something, and once you do it, you should never regret it. In life, a person will always be affected by many things, and very few can really implement it.

"This sentence represents a principle of life, but the phrase 'Master' is better than teaching any Taoism. I don't know what the 'Master' gave to the other people. Lin Junxuan thought secretly.

Lin Junxuan thought back carefully, there were already three masters: the first master claimed to be a 'monster' in the Heavenly and Human Stage, saying that his demon method was not suitable for his own practice, and he disappeared after losing a copy of "Dao Fa Zhengzang" to himself; He doesn't teach the Dao, he only teaches people to think, to discover their own way of survival, and the third master is quite normal, but he is not the kind of normal master, after leaving a bunch of cultivation methods and Taoist books, he doesn't care about himself, and he often disappears, and he can't find him if he wants to, so he can only find himself!

People say that obeying the master is important, and he can't vote easily, the first 'demon' master is good, and he made it clear from the beginning, let Lin Junxuan not be strict with any portal, and then worship the Taoist gate by chance; the second mysterious 'master' directly sent himself to Fangcun Mountain, saying that he wanted to help him join the Fangcun Sect! The third master, Lin Junxuan finally knew his name, Songyu! This kind of encounter always made Lin Junxuan feel ridiculous and unreal.

Shaking his head, Lin Junxuan shook off the messy thoughts in his mind. There were two large peaches on the plate at arm's length, Lin Junxuan reached out and took one of them, took a bite, the water overflowed, and a sweet smell flowed into his throat along the liquid. As soon as the peach juice was in the stomach, a warm and cool breath melted in the stomach and dispersed into the seven meridians and eight veins. Lin Junxuan only felt that his whole body was cool, and his mind seemed to be more penetrating and clear.

"This peach does have some effect on clearing the mind and removing distracting thoughts. However, this is just the case, so it shouldn't be placed in the forbidden place of Rotten Peach Mountain. Lin Junxuan remembered what he had guessed yesterday, if Wu Chengen really traveled to this world like himself, and created the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain Oblique Moon Three-Star Cave according to the Fangcun Sect of this world, it is likely that the character of Sun Wukong is not completely apocryphal, but has its prototype.

"That uncle has been guarding outside the rotten peach mountain for many years, and when I went, he was very serious at first, but as soon as I lifted the rotten wooden stake, his attitude changed, and he gave me two peaches at parting, and said that I was welcome to come over to play at any time. As the caretaker of Rotten Peach Mountain, it is very likely that he knows some secrets of Rotten Peach Mountain! Even if it is not complete, just a little bit is enough for me to certify it. Lin Junxuan thought about it and decided to visit the white-bearded and white-haired old man again today.

"Bang bang!" A knock on the door woke Lin Junxuan up: "Junxuan, it's here." It's time for morning class, and your master asked me to familiarize you with the path to the Kanli Palace. ”

"Ah, I'll come out. Lin Junxuan remembered that Songyu had mentioned this matter to himself yesterday. The peach was juicy and melted in the mouth, Lin Junxuan finished eating it in two bites, tidied up the white coarse sermon clothes on his body, opened the door, and walked out.

"I've seen Uncle Songhe. Outside the door, Songhe was standing at the door, and Lin Junxuan saluted.

"Let's go, Uncle Kan is going to talk. ”

Lin Junxuan originally thought that the 'Kanli Palace' was in the Lingtai Palace, but he didn't expect Songhe to lead Lin Junxuan out of the main hall and down the mountain along a trail in the east. Thousands of feet down the mountain, there is a small metal palace standing on the cliff.

'Kan Ligong', the plaque of the palace has three large characters of vermilion lacquer.

Before he walked to the door, Lin Junxuan smelled a strong smell of burning sulfur, which was very choking.

"In addition to being responsible for teaching you ancient seal characters, your favorite thing is alchemy medicine, so the sulfur smell of this Kan Palace is extremely strong. When you go to class, remember to pretend that you don't smell the choking smell. Your Uncle Kan Ion hates the way others don't feel happy when they smell this smell. If he gets angry, he will probably expel you from the Kanli Palace immediately, and you will not be allowed to set foot in the Kanli Palace for half a step! Even if your master came here back then, you have to abide by this rule, you can remember it. Songhe saw Lin Junxuan's frowning look and knew what he was thinking, so he said.

The word Kanli originally has the meaning of water and fire, yin and yang, and also has the meaning of lead and mercury. This uncle originally liked Xiudan Pharmaceutical, which coincided with the word 'Kanli' in his name. Hehe, he is alchemizing, but he is not allowed to say that the sulfur smell is snarky, and he can't show it, but he is a very interesting elder. Lin Junxuan said with a smile in his heart.

"I won't go into the palace, I'll go back first, and in the future, if you have any questions, just come to me. Walking to the gate of the Kanli Palace, Songhe dropped this sentence and left.

Glancing at the vermilion lacquer plaque above his head, Lin Junxuan stepped into the Kanli Palace with his head held high. Even the ground in the palace is made of dark gold, and the ground is tattooed with mountains, birds, beasts, insects and fish, and in the empty room, there are ten gorgeous futons wrapped in cotton cloth. Li Xuanfeng, Song Siming, Dongfang Yu, Ying Donglai and others were sitting on the pupand, their eyebrows drooping slightly, looking respectful and serious, when they heard the footsteps, several people turned their heads and saw that it was Lin Junxuan's expressions of different expressions, some were happy, and more were gloating.

"Big brother, you're finally here!" Ying Donglai shouted happily when he saw Lin Junxuan coming in, his sleeves fluttered, and he strode over.

"Who is making a loud noise in the hall?" Ying Donglai had just walked a few steps, and in the side hall, an old voice said angrily.

Ying Donglai grimaced, pointed in the direction of the side hall, and pointed to the Pupan beside him. Lin Junxuan understood and sat down beside Ying Donglai.

"Big brother, you're finally here. Ying Donglai lowered his voice in Lin Junxuan's ear.

"Hmm," Lin Junxuan nodded slightly.

Ying Donglai secretly glanced at the side hall, and the angry voice did not sound again, so he sighed and said in a low voice: "Big brother, where do you live?" My master should know, but I asked him, and he didn't say. I always say, practice first, look at the senior brother, practice first. ”

"I live in the room due west, and I can climb directly from the window to the outside of the temple. I'll take you there in a few days. -- Uncle Shi hasn't come yet, I see that you are sitting upright, did your master say something?" Lin Junxuan said.

"Didn't your master say it?" Ying Donglai said in surprise: "My master told me that there are two taboos to enter the Kanli Palace, and you can't say the smell...... , can't say loud noise, nothing else!"

"Bang!"

There was a sudden loud noise in the side hall, and a fiery smoke with a snarky sulfur smell rushed out from the side nose, and everyone in the hall was shocked, and they stood up one by one. Before he could take a single step, an old voice came from the smoke: "Don't be alarmed...... Don't be surprised!cough!cough...... There's no fuss, I can handle your uncle and ancestor, ahem!!"

In the midst of a burst of coughing, a little old man with a black face and wrinkled skin came out of the smoke with a bow bow, he covered his mouth with a dirty sleeve, and coughed as he walked.

This little old man was all black, his sparse hair stood up in a mess, a pair of small cloth shoes were under his feet, and only a pair of eyes were not completely black.

Seeing that everyone was stunned to look at him, the little old man waved his hand and said vaguely: "Sit down...... Sit down ......"

At first, he was still whispering, but when he got to the back, everyone was still looking at him in a daze, and the little old man flicked his sleeves and roared suddenly: "I'll just sit down, don't you hear one by one?!!"

The loud voice shook the entire Kanli Palace, and the volume was completely inconsistent with his thin body. The little old man was shocked, and everyone remembered their master's instructions before leaving, and sat down on the futon one by one.

The little old man nodded with satisfaction, smiled slightly, and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "This is not bad." With a wave of his sleeves, a gust of wind swept out, turning the smoke pouring out of the side hall upside down. When the thick black smoke rolled back, a faint sound of fragments of the Dan furnace dragging on the ground and finally piling up in the corner was faintly heard in the side hall.

"Alright, let's start class. The little old man wiped his chest, shook his robe again, and his body looked cleaner, and then he sat down on the largest futon in the center of the hall with satisfaction.

"There is nothing to teach about ancient seal characters, and it is also a rote memorization. If you practice the Tao one by one, your memory should be enhanced. When I'm talking, remember not to interject, and when I'm done talking, I'll ask if there's anything you don't understand. In addition, some very basic things, I don't want to talk about them a second time after I talked about them for the first time, if you are all stupid and don't understand," the little old man pointed out of the palace: "Get out of the palace immediately, don't enter the palace again in the future!"

After saying this, the little old man also cared about everyone's complicated expressions, his dirty palm reached into his arms, took out a thin book of green skin, dipped some saliva and turned the pages of the book, and talked to himself: "Today I will talk about a hundred 'ancient seal characters' and the corresponding official script font ......."
