Chapter 4: Daoyuan Fuze
This Taoist priest has a delicate face, a long white beard hanging down on his chest, a radiant look, a fairy wind and bones, his eyes are blazing, hidden but not revealed, and his spirit is very different from ordinary people.
Zheng Zhongyang said in his heart: "This person is really extraordinary, where is it like an ordinary person, could it be an immortal on the mountain?" This sika deer is a spirit animal and is very familiar with this Taoist, could it be that this Taoist raised it? What are they doing here? With a full stomach full of doubts in a daze, Zheng looked at her husband and hurriedly pulled Zheng Zhongyang, Zheng Zhongyang was slightly startled, and hurriedly saluted this Taoist with Zheng, and asked: "This fairy came to the cold house, I don't know what to do!" ”
This Taoist smiled slightly, and said: "Don't be too careful, this sika deer is my mount, it is very stubborn on weekdays, often run to play outside the Taoist temple when meditating on the poor road, yesterday this deer was in distress, thanks to the donor and his family forgot to die to save each other, today is to thank each other, I am grateful." ”
When Zheng Zhongyang heard this, he hurriedly pulled his wife to kneel down and said: "This immortal, the small people are called Zheng Zhongyang, helping the weak and punishing the strong is what my generation should do, not to mention that I met it in person, what I did was just a thing, and it was already a creation to meet the spirit beast of the gods, so the thank you of the gods must not be made!" What is the matter with the immortals, the little people will never give up. Please also ask about the immortal law number. ”
This Taoist smiled and said: "The poor Taoist is called Taiping Zhenren, who lives in the Sanyang Temple of Fengming Mountain, although he has lived in the world for a long time, he has not asked about the world for many years, and has been in retreat and devoted himself to cultivation. Today's descent is not only because the deer was rescued by you, but in fact, there is something else, so call your family out, let the poor road see, and give you a great gift. ”
Zheng Zhongyang said: "Yes." ”
Hurriedly went into the house and shouted Zheng Xuan, Zheng Ying and Zheng Shuang, and took them to the courtyard to kneel in front of Taiping Zhenren with him. After staring at Zheng Zhongyang's three children, the real person asked Zheng Xuan, "You went up the mountain with your father yesterday, right?" Zheng Xuan agreed: "Exactly." ”
Taiping Zhenren stroked his beard slightly with his hand, nodded and smiled: "This son is rich and heroic, his bones are strange, he is a talent, it is rare that he is not chaotic in trouble, and he is open-minded, hehe, not bad, not bad." ”
He also carefully identified Zheng Xuan with his heavenly eye spiritual sense, and said in his heart: "This son of gold and fire twin spiritual roots, middle and upper assets." The spirit beast that saved me yesterday may be the cause he deserves. I have long had the intention to find a destined person as an apprentice, today this child is qualified, but his temperament is precious, and he accidentally saved my spirit animal, but it makes me feel that I have a fate with him, isn't it just the word that everything has cause and effect, and this son will either achieve great things in the future, or be unknown. Anyway, cause and effect are complete today, teach well in the future, and then see his achievements! Everything has its own certainty. ”
Then he said to Zheng Xuan: "Child, the tiger you drove away yesterday is actually a century-old tiger spirit in the back mountain of Fengming, and I often eavesdrop on my arguments and scriptures, and over time I have some understanding of the growth of all things, and I have some Taoist qi, so I became a jing, this time you hurt it, and you must have a fate with it in the future, what kind of creation, you have to rely on yourself." ”
When Zheng Xuan heard this, he remembered all the circumstances of yesterday, and he was afraid for a while, if it wasn't for his father and his desperate efforts, he was afraid that he would not be able to save the deer, but he would be gone. Taiping Zhenren walked up to Zheng Xuan and said, "Child, are you willing to follow me to cultivate and become an immortal?" ”
When Zheng Zhongyang heard this, he never dreamed of karma, but now it was in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but be stunned; When Zheng Xuan heard this, his brain "coaxed", as if he was in a dream, Zheng looked at the father and son, and hurriedly agreed: "Creation, creation, my son is willing." After speaking, when I thought that Zheng Xuan would leave and I didn't know how many years I would see each other again, I couldn't help but leave tears again.
Zheng Zhongyang heard his wife's promise and said to Zheng Xuan: "Xuan'er, are you willing to go up the mountain to cultivate with a real person?" Zheng Xuan looked at his parents and sister to see the real person, and he didn't feel unknown for a while, and he was very willing but reluctant to give up his family, after all, people's feelings are not easy to give up, and he couldn't say anything for a while.
Taiping Zhenren knew the thoughts of the Zheng family at a glance, and said: "Tomorrow my mount will come, if you want to, I will ride my spirit beast up the mountain, if you don't want to, I will not force it, today I will go first." ”
After finishing speaking, I saw that the Taiping real person straddled the plum blossom spirit beast, the deer's four hooves were light, and a few jumps were already miles away, and in the blink of an eye, they were halfway up Fengming Mountain, disappeared into the clouds and mist, and only heard the sound of the deer still echoing.
After a while, the Zheng family came back to their senses, and the family returned to the house silently, only to hear Zheng Shuang jumping up and down and asking: "Father, mother, brother, sister, who was that person just now?" Zheng hurriedly covered Zheng's mouth and said, "It's a god, you can't talk nonsense, and you are not allowed to eat." Zheng Shuang heard his mother's serious tone, and he didn't dare to say anything after making a grimace.
Zheng Zhongyang sat down beside Zheng Xuan, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xuan'er, everyone envy everyone who cultivates the Tao and becomes an immortal, but the path of cultivation is also full of dangers and obstacles, and your mother and I want to hear your opinion on this matter." Zheng Xuan thought for a moment and said, "The child is willing to become a cultivator, but he is reluctant to let you go. ”
Zheng Zhongyang said: "Xuan'er, you can go with confidence, don't worry about things at home, just come back every year to have a look." Zheng Xuan nodded vigorously in agreement. Zheng and his sisters made dumplings, Zheng Zhongyang took out his treasured daughter Hong, and the whole family saw Zheng Xuan off.
