Chapter 41: Dragon and Tiger Mountain
Towering mountains, verdant trees, and white clouds seem to gather all the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
On the mountainside, a Taoist temple was built.
The Taoist temple is old, and the square is engraved with cracks, showing the long millennium.
The door of the Taoist temple is open.
Sanqing statue sits on the altar with high ends.
The clay statue of the god has a kind face and a natural posture.
A group of Taoist priests stood under the statue.
They were all wearing blue robes with wooden branches and their hair tied up.
In the front row, there are three old men.
The old man in the middle has a gray beard, his eyes are bright, and his face is fair, which can be regarded as a real crane hair and childish face.
The old man's name is Zhang Qiuling, and he is the 252nd generation head of Taoism.
The old man looked at the statue of Sanqing, and said to himself: "At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Taoist ancestor Zhang Daoling founded this religion, which has been thousands of years long, and has been passed on to my generation, it has been two hundred and fifty-two generations.
An old man with a short beard spoke: "Senior brother in charge, do you want to go down the mountain yourself?" ”
The head of the house nodded and said, "That's right, the head of government called me three times, which means that he wants me to go down the mountain, get rid of the evil spirits, and protect the people."
The short-bearded old man said: "But the senior brother in charge is already seventy and six this year, and I am afraid that I will lose if I run out at such a large age."
The old man in charge laughed: "Lian Po is old, can I still eat, although I am old, but there is no problem in killing a few evil ghosts."
The old man in charge looked at the statue of Sanqing, and said earnestly: "I am old, the inheritance of Taoism does not lie in me, but in the young people, if the common people are gone, how can young people inherit our Taoism, water can carry boats, but also can overturn boats."
The short-bearded old man bowed his head and said, "What the senior brother in charge said is reasonable."
The black-bearded old man asked, "Senior Brother Master, when are we leaving?" ”
The old man in charge turned around, looked at the group of young disciples in front of him, and said with emotion: "Leave the Demon Destroying Guardian Dao to our old men, you stay in the Taoist temple well, and the development of the Taoist temple lies with you."
A group of young disciples knelt on the ground one after another and said in unison, "Master."
The head said, "Hurry up."
The disciples said in unison: "We are willing to go down the mountain on behalf of the master."
The head smiled bitterly: "You don't cultivate enough, you went, you just gave your life in vain, why bother."
A group of disciples said: "Although I have died nine times, I have no regrets."
The head smiled: "If you have this heart, I will be satisfied, but the development and inheritance of Taoism need you."
The old man in charge said warmly: "From now on, Juemin will be appointed as the head of Taoism."
Juemin raised his head and refused: "Head, the disciple may not be able to take on a big responsibility."
The old man in charge said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, just do it little by little, don't worry about it, the head believes in you."
Juemin said: "Master, but ......"
The old man in charge interrupted: "I have made up my mind, and I can't shirk it."
The old man in charge looked at the boy and said, "Have you booked the ticket?" ”
Xiao Tong said: "It's booked, boss, the ticket is at two o'clock this afternoon, and when you get off the airport, there will be someone to pick you up."
The head nodded and said, "Very good."
The old man in charge smiled and said, "Two junior brothers, we should pack up and prepare to go."
The two old men said, "Yes, senior brother."
On the way down the mountain.
Each of the three old men led a small donkey.
The donkey carries a variety of magic talismans on its back.
A group of disciples stood at the foot of the mountain, shed tears, and wept: "Master, master."
The old man in charge said with a smile: "Let's go back, in the future, the development and inheritance of Taoism will all be pinned on you."
All the disciples knelt on the ground and wept, "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master."
They understand that this time, the head and the master are probably more than lucky.
The head and the two uncles led the little donkey forward.
The demeanor is calm, and the steps are free.
The short-bearded old man said unhappily: "Don't cry and cry, like something, hurry up for me, your head and uncle can still fight for the people of dawn in their lifetime, defend the right path in the world, you should be happy, what is it like to cry and cry."
Under the reprimand of the master, all the disciples stopped crying.
The black long-bearded old man said: "Haoran Heaven and Earth, righteousness lasts forever, the road to Taoism will be handed over to you, don't mess it up for me, Juemin, you are a senior brother, you must lead all the junior brothers."
Juemin said: "Follow the teachings of the teacher."
The old man in charge said: "Let's go, otherwise I won't be able to catch the plane."
The three of them led the little donkey and left slowly.
A group of disciples once again said respectfully: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master."
The three old men had just gotten off the mountain.
There were three cars parked at the intersection.
One heavy goods vehicle, two Hongqi cars.
A man in a black uniform walked over and said with a smile: "The three of you must have come down from Longhu Mountain, I came to pick you up and take you to the airport on the orders of your superiors, please get in the car."
The three Taoist elders looked at each other.
The head said: "Whose order are you?"
The man smiled and said, "The order of the supreme government, I am responsible for sending you to the airport, and when you get to the place, someone will pick you up."
The man opened the car door and said with a smile: "Three of you, please get in the car."
The man looked at the little donkey led by the old man and said with a smile: "Your donkey can get on the truck over there."
The truck driver stepped down and opened the door.
The head smiled: "Your service is really thoughtful."
The man smiled, "The duty lies."
The three got into the car and sped away in the direction of the airport.
Aerodrome.
The three old men got out of the car.
The little donkey was pulled out of the wagon.
The three old men led the little donkey towards the airport.
Blue robe, black cloth shoes, wooden sticks to pull hair, leading a little donkey.
Such a costume caused frequent sideways glances from passers-by.
The man smiled: "We have arranged a special plane for the three of us."
The head said: "Don't be so troublesome, let's buy a ticket."
The man said with a smile: "Donkeys are not allowed to get on the plane, and the chief decided to take into account the special circumstances and arrange a special plane for the three of them."
The head and the two juniors glanced at each other.
The head looked at the donkey and said helplessly: "Okay".
A white-winged plane is parked at the airport.
The group walked towards the airport.
The flight attendants in black and red uniforms stood at the door of the plane, looking at them condescendingly, and pressed the button with their thin fingers.
The escalator descended and landed slowly.
The three old men stepped on the escalator and walked towards the plane.
The man waved his hand and said, "Take care."
The three old men turned their heads and waved.
Enter the aircraft entrance.
The stewardess said, "Welcome to the SS61 plane, I wish you all a pleasant journey."
The three old men led the donkey to the plane.
The escalator slowly rises and closes.
With a roar, the plane flew towards the blue sky.
