In ancient times, the Oriental world was a vast ocean. With the vicissitudes of life, the west coast of the Pacific Ocean has emerged with endless mountains and rivers, which nourish the grass and trees, and also reproduce all living beings. As a result, the most active primates, humans, and the perpetual human beings who live and extinguish incense, monopolize the huge material world. The material world is an illusory projection of the spiritual world, because of the variety of different but infinite wonders, causing many people to indulge in it, trying to have the world to conquer the world and become a hegemony, so that there will be a war between you and me, in order to win the so-called material wealth, in addition to the human weak and the strong, the strong are kings, and the losers are the cowards, and often affect the alien creatures and even the earth, rocks, plants and trees, so human beings and alien creatures appear greedy and hateful, and there are irresistible disasters in the natural world.

However, there is no lack of righteousness between heaven and earth, such as the teachings of the sage Confucius 2,000 years ago, and the eternal inheritance of Shakyamuni's compassion religion, which has made the world feel great grace. But the truth, goodness, beauty and falsehood, evil and ugliness have never stopped competing. So karma, fate gathers fate, life and death are reincarnated, and the evolution of the six realms never ends. The poem says: Qianqiu Gong and Sins are not commented on, once meditated on the wind and moon; The heart and mouth are clean and clean, and the three ways are now in the palace.

At this time, the clouds of Wudang Mountain covered the fog barrier, and it looked like a large pile of uneven gray and white clothes, as for what was hidden in the gap, outsiders didn't know, and there was no need to figure it out. However, the Miaoyi Zhenren, who is known as the fairy wind bone, has a deep view of this, and even a nest of ants hidden in a decayed hole of the towering ancient pine can clearly see it.

At this time, he walked out of the Taoist temple and felt that the aura of his apprentice Tao Qinghu was moving in the canyon, and he had usually taught Tao Qinghu not to collect qi in foggy hours, because there was a fog miasma, which was a poisonous gas, and once infected, it would damage the body and mind - either suffering from incurable diseases, or being infected with evil sects.

Miaoyi Zhenren knew that Tao Qinghu was strange and clever, and went directly to accuse him, I am afraid that if he is not close, he will find out and pretend to be a worker, so that you have no reason to catch him.

In view of this, Miaoyi had to take out his treasure, an invisibility suit that he wore so that others could see him, but others could not see him. Speaking of the origin of this invisibility suit is really unusual, in the early years of the wonderful clothes of real people, no, in the early years he was not a real person, but an ordinary mortal, named Xiong Zi, unlike most people, Xiong Zi has compassion, especially not killing, even found a moth resting on the road, he had to bow down to pick it up, put it in the grass or a more environmentally friendly and safe place, to avoid pedestrians inadvertently trampling to death. As a result of doing many similar good deeds, people who did not understand privately accused him of having a nervous problem, and even told a thing with a nose and eyes to prove that he did indeed have a "problem". At that time, the village was watered with water and the pond was basically drained, and there were many loaches in the muddy water. Some people said that he was doing stupid things, but he did not give a positive answer, but only said, I think about it from the same position, if I am a loach, and others catch me home to cook food, this is a death, although it satisfies people's mouths, but it is very uncomfortable to die like this. In order to exempt innocent loaches from the death penalty, I only let the loaches live, what's so bad?

Others laughed so hard that they asked, "Will you become a loach?" After that, he was not allowed to explain, so he responded with disdain.

But Xiong Zi still does this kind of good deed, many people think that helping people is to do good deeds and good deeds, but they do not see helping animals as doing good deeds and good deeds. For example, if you are released, especially those edible animals, others even think that you have a nervous problem, and they will look at you with strange eyes, making you very cramped. Xiong Zi was like this at first, every time he was released, others would talk about it for a long time, as if he had made something wrong. Later, in the impression of others, he seemed to have corrected this "mistake", only people saw him go on the market to buy those living creatures, but did not see him release them, doesn't this mean that he also opened meat? has been affected into a normal person. But in fact, this is not the case, and there has been a miracle in his desire to release animals for more than 30 years.

One night, Xiong Zi quietly wept because someone saw him release mud frogs during the day, and they said that he was a fool, and this word reached the ears of his family, and they also accused him of not doing that kind of "stupid thing". Xiong Zi didn't explain, but only secretly sad: he thought that the person who killed the living was too confused, and he didn't understand the truth that the person who killed it was a chronic suicide. But he was also very depressed, and every time he released something, he would always be discovered, and then it became a topic of conversation after dinner. Now he was slowly dozing off, and a cricket was crowing by the window, and he feared that the quack from the wall would come and catch it, and injure it, so he closed the door and hung up the latch, so that he could sleep soundly. Gradually, an old man with crane hair and a childish face walked towards him, and said with a smile on his face: Xiong Zi, don't worry, I will give you a set of clothes to wear, and the custodian will no longer accuse you of your compassionate behavior. What baby clothes will be so effective? Xiong Zi didn't believe it much. As soon as the old man stretched his hand, a set of white clothes grabbed his hand. He said, "I can change whatever color I want it to be, and I want it to be colorless." Xiong Zi looked at the white clothes and asked: There will be such a god?

Yes. The old man smiled and replied: "If I let it turn black now, it will become black." I saw the old man silently reciting the word "turn black", and the suit of clothes seemed to be soaked in thick ink, and suddenly it was like a pile of dark clouds. Suddenly, the old man covered the suit on his body, covering even the soles of his feet, and he didn't know what to say silently, and gradually disappeared without a trace. Xiong Zi asked him where he went, and the old man said Am I not right in front of you? When he said this, Xiong Zi also felt a stream of air rushing on his face, but he couldn't see the old man's traces. It's so strange, Xiong Zi asked again and again: Old man, how did you use to be invisible? The old man laughed: If you think about it, you will understand. Xiong Zi felt that the old man was patting his shoulder with his hand, and made a "poof" sound, but he couldn't see the old man's hand, Xiong Zi grabbed his hand, and still couldn't see his hand, only his own hand. Xiong Zi said, old man, I understand, it is this set of baby clothes that is working.

Yes, the reason why you can't see me, I can see you is because I gave the command "colorless". "Colorless" means transparent, I am hidden in transparent air, of course you can't see me. The old man said that if I give other commands, you will be able to see me. Xiong Zidao: You just send a command to "turn red". The old man said according to Xiong Zi's thoughts, and sure enough, the old man seemed to have appeared from a raging fire, and the hand he was grabbed by Xiong Zi also protruded. The two looked at each other and smiled in the sun.

After a long time, Xiong Zi touched the set of clothes covered by the old man and said: Old man, such a good baby, you gave it to me, what should I take to repay you?

You don't need to repay, you just worship me as a teacher. Xiong Zi immediately bowed three times and bowed nine times. The old man said while helping Xiong Zi up: From now on, you will call me Master. As soon as the words fell, the figure of the old man disappeared. Xiong Zi lowered his voice and shouted, "Master—where are you?" Where are you, Master? The sound resounded and stopped, and the whole blue sky was like its echo wall, so vast and far away. But there was still no trace of the Master, only his voice echoed in his ears - you can only go to the Taoist temple to become a monk, this set of precious clothes belongs to you, and then I will give you the name Miaoyi Zhenren.

Xiong Zi continued to chase after the old man, shouting and chasing the master, shouting, chasing, and suddenly he woke up because of something under his feet. Xiong Zi opened his eyes, and the sky was already bright. After he got up and washed, he still thought about the dream he had last night, especially the master he had paid homage to in the dream, and deeply remembered the master's words. So he came to his father and knelt down on his knees, and his father was a kind man, and felt inexplicable, so he asked Xiong Zi: Son, what are you doing here? Xiong Zi didn't say anything, just cried. The father felt more and more strange, so he crouched down and asked, "What is the matter?" Go ahead!

Xiong Zi said the reason for it, and his father basically heard it clearly, so he said: Silly child, what you dream about is all illusory, why take it seriously? Xiong Zi began to cry again, saying that he had already worshiped the master and believed that it was true. The father felt that it didn't matter if it was true or not, and he wanted to pull the child up. The child said, "Father, if you don't agree to my request, I won't be able to kneel down."

At this time, the sun rose, and a floating cloud was faintly dispelled, as if to open people's minds. The father stared at Xiong Zi and asked, "Child, do you have any requirements?" Xiong Zi said: If I say it, I'm afraid my father won't agree.

As long as he doesn't do anything that violates the law and discipline, his father generally won't stop it.

Xiong Zi burst into tears and laughed: Father, are you serious?

When did I not take it seriously? The father helped Xiong Zi up, and Xiong Zi said casually: I want to become a monk in Taoism. You're not going to object, are you? The father was stunned when he heard this, and then said, "Monk, child, you have to think clearly." Xiong Zi said that he had thought it through and hoped that his father would not stop him.

This matter spread in the family, and someone gave Xiong Zi's family an idea and asked him to tell a fortune, and the fortune teller speculated according to the reported birth time of Geng, saying that Xiong Zi was destined to commit a canopy, and it was advisable to become a monk.

In this way, Xiong Zi's parents chose an auspicious day, sent Xiong Zi to a Taoist temple called Wulong Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River with tears, sent some fruits to the Taoist temple, and then accompanied Xiong Zi to kneel and worship the bronze statue of Zhang Tianshi in the first palace, and lit candles and incense. After a long time, his father explained his intention to the Taoist temple, and the Taoist chief carefully inspected Xiong Zi's complexion, and immediately agreed as if he had a feeling, so Xiong Zi was settled, and his parents left with confidence.

That night, the Taoist chief dreamed that a white-haired old man said to him: There is a new Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, you should treat him well.

The Taoist knew that Xiong Zi was being pointed at, so he nodded yes. The old man seemed to be uneasy, approached the Taoist chief and whispered a word, and then brushed his sleeves away.

In the early morning of the next day, the Taoist priests heard the sound of the broom sweeping the floor, only to see the steps, the courtyard became clean, that is, there was no sweeper, so they asked what was going on. He is Xiong Zi, the little Taoist priest who came yesterday. Do you know that Xiong Zi has done countless good deeds, and even received a blow and ridicule when he did good deeds and accumulated virtues, but his faith did not retreat, and his willingness played an immeasurable role, and the gods were moved, so he gave him an invisibility suit, which he put on an invisibility suit to clean up, only to see the ground gradually brightened, but he was not seen.

Suddenly, everyone called him a real person, telling him to quickly take off his invisibility suit and reveal his true form.

Why do you work in an invisibility suit? Everyone gathered around him and asked him. He looked at the swept floor and said, "I don't want people to know about my work."

The Taoist chief smiled and said: You all have to take him as an example, he is accumulating yin virtue!

Miaoyi Zhenren told the Taoist chief not to praise him, but also to do the consul. The Taoist chief arranged for him to take over from an old Taoist to guard the mountain gate. In fact, it is difficult to say that guarding the mountain gate is also difficult, and it is easy to say, mainly to prevent thieves. Thieves generally don't sneak into the Taoist temple inside the mountain gate to steal anything, and the things stolen from the Taoist temple are not easy to use, and when they are used, they will expose their feet. So what do thieves steal? There are several acres of fruit groves in the mountain gate, and when a believer placed a tribute in front of the statue of Zhang Tianshi, suddenly a Taoist boy touched a few pomegranates placed on the offering table. He looked at it and thought, "I might as well plant a fruit tree on the east side of the Taoist temple." Later he made it happen. When the fruit tree reached the fruiting season, he said to the Taoist priests: "The fruit of this fruit tree is ripe for you to enjoy, but when I don't have time to come here to offer incense, don't forget to pick some fruit and put it on the offering table to worship the god Zhang Tianshi." This is a long time ago, although I don't see the believer again, but that fruit grove is owned by the Taoist temple forever, because of the abundant fruits every year, there are many thieves, so the people who stay behind the mountain gate have a great responsibility. In addition, there is a vegetable garden in the west of the Taoist temple, most of the Taoist people are very diligent, sowing, watering, top dressing, hoeing and so on are all done neatly, so the vegetables grow luxuriantly and gratifying. However, there were often people at the foot of the mountain who came to steal and pick, so the Taoist chief discussed with the Taoist priests and worked together to build a small earthen house between the mountain gates, which was guarded by an elderly Taoist priest. Despite this, fruit and vegetable theft is still a frequent occurrence. Sometimes, a group of people come and play tricks to become thieves, and they leave a few people to hang out with the guards, so as to drag them softly, and the other people go into the forest or vegetable garden...... As a result, the guards were fooled.

Miaoyi real people came to take over the guards, and it was mid-autumn. He sits at the mountain gate, and others can't see him at all, but he can see others. Those thieves felt strange, every time they entered the Taoist fruit forest and vegetable garden to steal picks, they were caught right before they started, they were also very shrewd, but they didn't know how to hide it, as if someone was watching in the dark. In fact, it is the invisibility suit of Miaoyi Zhenren that plays a role, whenever Miaoyi Zhenren sees a group of thieves dispatching, he goes to the Taoist temple to call people, and his whereabouts are always unclear to the thief, so none of the thieves who enter the fruit forest and vegetable garden can escape from the palm of the Taoist.

A thief named Tao Qinghu always felt that there was some mystery in this, so he pretended to be a believer in broad daylight and went to the Taoist temple to burn incense. When he went back and forth, he noticed an unpredictable mutation, that is, there was no one in front of the mountain gate, and there was no one in the fruit forest and vegetable garden and its vicinity, but as long as someone misbehaved, he would be immediately discovered by the Taoist, and if it was serious, he would be tied up and taught a lesson, or sent to the government for punishment. I remember that in the past, there was at least one person guarding the mountain gate, but now that there is no guard, it is better than someone to defend it, and no thief dares to act rashly. Could it be that there are gods in the Taoist temple? But he still refused to fully believe in the gods. On a rainy day, Tao Qinghu deliberately went to the small house next to the mountain gate to grind, but when he grabbed a bamboo pole that was ready to go to the fruit forest to knock the fruit, the bamboo pole was firmly tripped by something, not tripped, but was grabbed by someone at the other end, and he had to let go. The man suddenly appeared, a Taoist priest of medium stature and solemn demeanor, and asked, "What are you doing here?" Tao Qinghu was very surprised, and quickly calmed down again: I'm sorry, I don't know about Dao Ye here.

The man said, "Let people be a little more disciplined." How can you avoid suspicion with this bamboo pole?

Master Dao, listen to me explain, I didn't use this bamboo pole to do the kind of dishonorable thing you imagined, I planned to use it as a fishing rod. Tao Qinghu bowed his hands while speaking, which reduced the Taoist's anger by half, and he wanted to say a few words back, but when he saw his humble appearance, he didn't say anything. Tao Qinghu took the opportunity to speak: Dao Ye, can you tell the contemptible people, what method do you use so that I can't see you, but you can see me.

Don't ask too much, there's no comment. Let's go! The Taoist then put on the colorless and formless invisibility suit that listened to the instructions, and Tao Qinghu couldn't see his face. But there are also gains, and I finally understand the real reason why many thieves are caught.

After Tao Qinghu went down the mountain, he inquired around about the whereabouts of the stranger who was usually invisible, and then went to the Taoist temple to burn incense, and did not forget to ask about it, but most of the Taoist priests shook their heads or remained silent. And he wondered how he could knock them out. His mind finally turned. One night, he brought valuable goods stolen from other places and gave them to the Taoist chief, so that he could please the Taoist and engage in some mundane things with him, and finally the topic fell to the Taoist who guarded the mountain gate, and only then did he know his name and the origin of the invisibility suit.
