Qingxuanguan.

Red walls and green tiles, surrounded by jungle.

Ganyu glanced up at the plaque and walked into the Taoist temple.

As soon as you enter the Taoist temple, you will see a square paved with stone slabs, and in the middle of the square, there is a huge copper incense burner.

Clumps of incense burn out at the ends, giving off a rich sandalwood scent.

"Xuanzhen Palace?!"

When Ganyu entered the main hall, he saw a majestic statue enshrined on top of the hall.

He was wearing a crown robe, wearing a crown of flat heaven, his hands naturally fell to his knees, and a string of beaded curtains fell, making it difficult to see his face.

According to the rules of the Taoist court, in the Taoist temple, the main sacrifice can only be the 'Heavenly Emperor', and it is the turn of the gods or the ancestors of the past dynasties to accompany the sacrifice, otherwise it will be regarded as an evil sacrifice!

This statue should be the 'Emperor of Heaven' himself.

At this time, there are not many pilgrims, and the palace is vast and vast, with a sense of majesty and mystery.

Ganyu suddenly became awe-inspiring, first respectfully offered incense, and then came to the merit box and threw silver coins into it.

"Thank you for the good faith!"

When a Taoist boy saw this scene, he immediately stepped forward with a happy face and presented a merit book: "Please also leave your name and surname......

Ganyu picked up the pen and wrote down the five big characters of Ganyu in Baigan Village, and listened to Daotong continue: "Shanxin comes from afar, and the road will be tired, but do you want to go inside to serve tea?" The 'green leaf tea' of this view is quite refreshing and thirst-quenching, and is famous in the county. ”

Although there are still pilgrims present, there are very few who offer a few pieces of silver at a time, and generally only the rich families at the time of the New Year's Festival have.

Dao Tong is regarded as watching people put down dishes, but no one objected, but took it for granted.

"Also ......"

Gan Yu had such a capital, so naturally he would not return empty-handed, he smiled when he heard the words, and followed the Taoist boy to the rear of the Taoist temple.

Behind the Taoist temple, there is a garden, covering an area of several acres of quiet and elegant, and planted with various flowers, which has a unique scene.

Dao Tong invited Gan Yu to sit in a small pavilion, and it didn't take long for him to serve clear tea, along with four-color refreshments.

Ganyu tasted it and felt that it tasted very good, but unfortunately she couldn't take it home for her mother to taste.

When I was tasting the authentic tea, I only heard that among the clothes flying, an old Taoist sword came and made a joke: "Old Taoist Mingde, I have seen good faith!" ”

"The Taoist is polite ......"

Ganyu hurriedly returned the gift, the two of them drank tea, and said some scriptures above the "Tao Jing", Mingde Lao Dao was surprised, only to feel that this young man's understanding of the "Tao Jing" is simply very familiar, not under some old Taoist priests.

Even some small words are quite enlightening to me.

When I asked again, knowing that Ganyu was here to take the boy's test, my tone couldn't help but be a little more affectionate.

In the view of Mingde Lao Dao, if this son does not make a mistake, he will be successful in this department, even if he does not invest in advance, he can also make a good fate.

Ganyu chatted a few more words before asking about Shinto.

Old Ming De listened, but smiled: "In the Gongyuan, every time there is a big test, there are indeed some ghosts and gods...... If a good believer comes to this meditation and asks this, but he has come to the wrong place, why not go to the City God Temple and ask the temple for a talisman to protect his body, and he should be safe......

Gan Yu must be in his heart, but he is also a little puzzled: "I heard that there is an official dragon qi in the county town to protect it, and its ghosts are not gods...... A place where the law of the Gongyuan is strictly forbidden, I don't know why this is so? ”

Mingde smiled and said, "Naturally, it is a Chenghuang concession...... If a rich son learns five cars, but he is not benevolent to the rich, and there are many lives in his hands, can he still be allowed to pass the exam? Therefore, before the start of each exam, the legal ban will be deliberately eliminated, so that the unjust souls will have grievances and revenge! ”

"I see......"

Ganyu suddenly realized, but she was a little unwilling in her heart.

His own situation is not for the sake of being rich or unkind, but a disaster from heaven.

Do you also have to bear the revenge of the Well Dragon King?

Old Ming Dao took a sip of tea, but he smiled and said nothing.

In fact, by today, most of these rules have been abolished...... For example, if a rich son who is still rich and unkind, if he can find a person with profound Taoism or a god to shelter, or if he has cultivated himself, he will naturally not be afraid of the unjust soul asking for his life.

Even if you have a darker mind, you can also use the art of disgust to harm those candidates who are outstanding.

If the background is tough and there is no major incident, the wandering spirit day and night will not be too careful.

But that's needless to say.

Dao Ting's talent is also taken hard!

Whether it's luck, wealth, or background...... They are all a kind of 'force', the strong wins, and it is also the rule of the jungle!

Of course, as long as the luck is not too bad, as long as the luck is not too bad, you can also pass the exam.

"Thanks for the point......"

Gan Yu thanked him sincerely, and after getting ready, he went to the City God Temple to ask for a spirit talisman.

was about to say goodbye, when he saw that Mingde Lao Dao was actually wearing a sword, and thought of the content of the wanted notice he saw at the city gate, he couldn't help asking: "The Taoist also practices martial arts?" I don't know if there is a way in my body? ”

"If you have nothing to do, just practice martial arts to strengthen your body...... As for the Dao Fa? But it's just a matter of abandoning the basics. ”

Mingde Lao Dao is very disapproving.

"Oh? What does this mean? ”

Ganyu was a little puzzled.

After all, he is still young, who doesn't have a horseman who can travel the world with a sword, or even the dream of cultivating immortals and immortals?

"It's good to practice in the public gate, except for the public gate, all the methods seem to be wonderful, but in fact, they are the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, and finally the wild fox Zen!"

Old Dao Mingde smiled slightly, said that, and asked Dao Tong to send Ganyu away.

After Ganyu left, Lao Dao sighed faintly, and there was a glimmer of light in his right hand, and a green leaf emerged, its leaves were verdant, and the petioles and veins were clearly visible.

It is suspended in mid-air, emitting a shimmering light, which is very mysterious.

If ordinary people see this scene, they must shout immortals, at least virtuous people, and then beg the Taoist to be included in the door and learn the Tao.

But Mingde Lao Dao smiled bitterly: "Practice...... Hehe...... The spirit of heaven and earth was suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth, and occasionally leaked a trace, and there were countless demons, spirits, and monks competing for it...... Even if he is talented, has a tenacious temperament, and has spent dozens or hundreds of years of cultivation to achieve success, it is better to be canonized by the Dao Court...... Practice, fix a fart! ”

Old Mingde suddenly burst into a foul language.

He was also a young seeker like Ganyu back then, and he was fortunate to worship in the Qingxuan Temple and be taught the true Taoism.

But so what?

After decades of penance, it is still difficult to achieve success.

This bit of mana, he still gave up his face, went to the same exam with a cadre of Mengtong, and obtained a child's fame, and finally cultivated it.

In his dantian, the 'Taishang Boy Lingguan Jar' sits in the center, controlling all the mana breath.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve the Tao!

In other words, if Ganyu is admitted to the middle school this time, he will be able to be on the same level as him immediately......

Such a prosperous era of Shinto has made countless self-cultivators despair.

"Heh......"

At this moment, a sneer suddenly came from behind the rockery.

"Who?"

Old Ming De was startled, and with a flick of his fingers, a turquoise light flashed.

That green leaf turned into a green arrow like a crossbow arrow, piercing the rockery directly!

Sou!

From behind the rockery, a figure flashed.

He was dressed in a Taoist robe, with a clear appearance, and his hair was half black and half white, looking very haggard.

"It's you?! Mei Changkong! ”

Old Ming De was taken aback, and the idea of wanting to make a loud voice was swallowed immediately.

He first looked around, and immediately pinched a trick, causing a layer of hazy brilliance to emerge and spread all around, before he lowered his voice and said, "You don't want to die, you dare to sneak into the county seat...... You're a repeat offender now, and you're on the wanted list. As long as you are seen by the wandering gods day and night, you will be gone......"

This Mei Changkong is the veteran of the wanted list worth fifty gold that Gan Yu never forgets.

It's just that for some reason, it seems to know the old way of Mingde.

"The revenge has not been avenged, and it is difficult to be willing to ......"

Mei Changkong sat in the position of the original sweet jade, munching on the pastries without grace, and I don't know how long I was hungry.

"Alas...... You and I are friends, and I can't bear to see you come this far......"

Old Mingde looked at Mei Changkong and felt a little regretful.

Once upon a time, this Taoist brother was suave and talented, which made me fall in love with many girls.

Now that he is ruined, he will be about the same age as himself next year, but he will be so haggard and old.

"I don't want to ...... The law is strict, my ancestor wanted to find a new path, worked hard, died before thirty, and my master followed...... He died in the mountains for a chance, and then passed it on to me. ”

Mei Changkong wiped the pastry residue from his beard, and his voice was low: "I don't have a good reputation, I just want to cultivate immortals and gain Taoism...... I finally practiced a little thing, and the county inspection was skillful and robbed, and if I didn't obey, I was charged with the crime, and the ancestral Taoist temple was beaten as an evil sacrifice and obscene shrine, and I became a wanted criminal...... I was angry and killed the inspection, and I became a repeat offender in the court, you say...... Where is this heavenly justice? ”

Old Mingde's lips opened, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Originally, he wanted to say that with Mei Changkong's ingenuity, the county test and the state test were like picking things up, and even the high school jinshi had some hopes.

Even if he is not a jinshi, as long as he has a reputation for 'lifting talents', he will not dare to be presumptuous in the inspection.

However, this person is dedicated to the immortal road, and he is arrogant, after all, he was beaten down from the pride of the sky.

It's just that Mei Changkong already knew this truth, and it was useless to say more.

The more genius you are, the more arrogant you are!

What's more, Mei Changkong has already lost too much on this road, and he can't deny all this at all, he only has the Dao Law left......

"You sneaked into the county secretly, I'm afraid that there will be a big event, don't you still want to take revenge? Isn't the patrol dead? ”

Old Ming De was a little puzzled.

Although the inspection is only from the ninth grade, it is also an official of the imperial court, and killing an official is the most sensitive nerve to rebel and challenge the Dao court.

Mei Changkong didn't think about hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, why did he sneak into the county seat after this remnant of his life.

"Naturally, there is revenge...... I have inquired clearly, what happened back then, the inspection was only a person with a clear face, and there were people hiding behind the scenes, but now they are rising step by step and have become county officials! ”

Mei Changkong sneered.

"You're crazy, Cao Xiancheng is from the seventh grade!"

Old Dao Mingde was taken aback, in the Dao Court, grade represents strength!

From the county of Qipin, even if he doesn't take care of things, he has a part of the county's popular spirit and incense belief in his body, and his divine power is enough to crush him to death for more than ten small repairs!
