Chapter Ninety-Seven, The Dojo of the World
After watching the fireworks, Li Qing sent Liu Yifei down the mountain to the hotel.
I made an appointment, see you tomorrow, and let's come to the mountains to catch up on the drama together.
After sending Liu Yifei down the mountain for a long time, Li Qing still felt energetic after coming and going, and even played a set of Five Elements Boxing.
The old Taoist priest came up the mountain slowly.
Looking at the red face, I'm afraid that I will win mahjong by playing mahjong.
"Hehe, do you know what Lao Niu said about me today, saying that I don't look like a Taoist priest, how can a Taoist priest play mahjong as slippery."
It turned out that he won Uncle Niu, no wonder the old man was so happy.
Ever since he learned the gossip story of the old man when he was young, Li Qing was also very excited.
Sure enough, everyone has a gossip heart.
"Our master and apprentice have two cups?"
"Yes."
The old Taoist priest took out the treasured rice wine and knocked off the yellow mud cover and opened it.
There are not many people who drink rice wine now.
Either pursue the intensity to drink white, or pursue the bold to drink beer.
But the old Taoist priest just likes to drink this slightly sweet rice wine, and doesn't like the liquor with too high a degree.
Peanuts, pig's head, pig's ears.
On the warm kang.
The old Taoist priest teased: "If you don't see you at this time, you can bring the girl back." ”
"People have nowhere to celebrate the New Year, so I brought her back."
Li Qing listened to this and stiffened his neck.
At this time, the old Taoist priest continued to tease.
"You are really good at practicing kung fu, and many kung fu people can't practice hard for you."
Li Qing: "...."
"Master, you're going to lose me like this."
The two drank together.
Li Qing drank a lot of wine today, maybe he returned home for the Chinese New Year, but the pressure accumulated in acting these days has been released.
The old Taoist priest broke his words.
"Hey, I'm worried."
"Minor problem." Li Qing didn't care much about it, and smiled: "I'm a Taoist person, and I forcibly pinched out a 'knife to return to the sea', but it didn't affect my own self." ”
told the old Taoist priest about his acting experience during this time.
The method of pinching up a personality to create a split personality sounds a bit crazy, but the old Taoist priest listened to it.
In fact, some of this part of the pressure comes from the old Taoist priest.
Returning to this old Taoist temple, Li Qing suddenly discovered.
The old Taoist priest only has one of his relatives left, and if he doesn't inherit this Taoist temple after he leaves, then this Taoist temple can only become a cloud of history.
The old Taoist priest went down with another glass of wine and said.
"Do you know what kind of people your master and I used to be?"
"What kind of people?"
"I am a Taoist priest who was abandoned by my parents from birth and adopted by the previous generation of viewers."
Li Qing's drinking action was stunned.
The old Taoist priest never talked about his past, and he became a Taoist priest.
Today, it seems that I can pry into the past of some old Taoist priests.
He seemed to be willing to say it, Li Qing said curiously.
"It's the same as me."
"Ah, like you, I didn't have my own common name until I was 20 years old, called Li Guo, and I used to live under the Taoist name of 'Shan Qingzi'."
It turned out that the old Taoist priest, like himself, was also an orphan.
Maybe it's because of this that the old Taoist priest touched the scene and adopted himself.
At this moment, Li Qing also thought so.
"At that time, the Taoist temple was even more dilapidated than now, and there was only a small main hall, which I built with bricks and tiles, and I built it together with the previous generation of Guan Zhuyun Dao Chief."
Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest looked at the eaves of the Taoist temple and smiled proudly.
The feeling of building it by yourself is really satisfying.
"It's so shabby, the Taoist temple at that time." Li Qing sighed: "I sometimes still think, why do you still hold on to the Taoist temple, old Taoist, how good it is to go down the mountain, but when you grow up, you understand a little." ”
"Oh... So what do you say about your 'understanding'? Tell me about the old man, why do I want to guard the Taoist temple of this lonely mountain? ”
"Is it to repay the favor? The entrustment of the previous generation of the Lord? Revitalize the incense of our Taoist temple and continue the thoughts of our ancestors. ”
"Hahahaha... Good boy, I haven't seen you eat deflated a few times since you were a child, and today you guessed completely wrong. ”
The old Taoist priest patted his thigh like an old urchin, laughing, laughing...
Seeing that Li Qing guessed wrong, he was deflated, and he smiled very happily.
In the past, this kid let him practice kung fu directly more powerful than himself, and he couldn't teach him a lesson, and when he was 16 years old, the masters and gangsters within a radius of 100 miles had to call him big brother.
This is also the reason why no one in the Taoist temple has never come to find trouble - because a certain little Li Dao Chang is too strong.
"That's... Why? Li Qing wondered.
At this time, the old Taoist priest said with a smile.
"The old master never thought of letting me keep the Taoist temple, but he did want me to 'seek the Tao' and seek the way of my own body, which is also what we should do as 'Taoist priests'."
"Oh..."
Li Qing was keenly aware of the difference.
Seek the way of one's own body, and keep the Taoist temple with withering.
"When he passed the location of the Taoist temple to me, he went down the mountain to resist the war, and when he came back, he died on the path he was pursuing, thinking that it was the right way to seek, and he didn't even have ashes, and what he left behind was just this Taoist temple."
"Master... Is it for this reason? ”
Li Qing's mood was slightly heavy.
In this way, the old Taoist priest became a single lineage, so that the incense of the Taoist temple was not lost, so he stayed on the Taoist temple.
"No..."
The old Taoist priest looked out the window and said softly with his eyes.
"What your master taught me, I will teach you today."
"This mountain, this Taoist temple, is nothing more than a place of monasticism, a place of seeking the Tao, a place of cultivation suitable for masters, I like the mountains here, I like the water here, I like the quietness here, I like to meditate alone here... Dealing with landscapes, birds, and forests, and occasionally playing mahjong with a few old friends in the red dust, that is, a great joy in life. ”
"It is said that the father knows him better than the son himself, I know you very well, you have been like this since you were a child, you like the heroes on TV, you like heroes, you like villains, you like good people, you like bad people, you like to experience love and hatred, sorrow and parting, life is varied, you are a natural Taoist, and the dojo where you seek the Tao is in the world."
"And you, whether you go down the mountain to be an actor, transform the appearance of all sentient beings, and show the various states of salient beings, isn't it a practice, isn't it a part of seeking the Tao?"
"Go with the flow and pursue your own meaning and path."
"Come on."
Taking advantage of the drunkenness, Lao Dao pulled Li Qing to the door.
Pointing to the broken plaque of the Taoist temple, the plaque of the Taoist temple has decayed over time, and the name is no longer visible.
Over the years, it has been renovated many times, but the plaque of this temple has not been renovated.
"Respect and meaning don't have to be pinned on the dead, it's just a plaque that will decay with the years."
"You, go to this dojo on earth and seek your way."
The old Taoist priest poured the wine gourd into his mouth and laughed three times.
