Chapter 154: New Rules, Golden Dome, Old Dao
After closing the door, Wu Zhifu turned his back to the door, looked at the many disciples in the courtyard, and said to He Wei outside the door without turning his head, "I don't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face, I only look at the face of the Taishang Sandao." β
He Jing outside the door stood there, not reacting for a while, who is this Taishang Sandao? This stupid girl, talking about the face of the Buddha in front of the Daomen, if Wu Zhifu, who is a person of the Daomen, will go to see the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, then it is really a strange thing.
He Wei looked at the closed gate of the Mountain Hidden Temple, thinking that this is really a super bad deal, before and after, his father donated a total of up to four million to the Mountain Hidden Temple, and he was a personal disciple of Shi Youen, but now he came to the Mountain Hidden Temple to prepare for Qing Xiu, but was driven out by the current steward.
He Xun, who wanted to cry without tears, sat outside the gate of the Mountain Hidden Courtyard and shouted angrily, "Uncle Shi, you are not righteous! I came all the way here, but you drove me out!"
"How can I say that I am also your senior brother's apprentice, you are just my nephew, and besides, I am a girl, and you are still so rude to me!
"My dad donated so much money to the Mountain Hidden Academy, this money is enough for me to go to a good university abroad, and when it comes to you, you don't even give me the opportunity to let me practice in the Mountain Hidden Temple, you are so unkind, have you forgotten your food, clothing, housing and transportation, who brought it to you?"
"Uncle Shi, say something, do you spend the money with peace of mind?"
Wu Zhifu's voice sounded in the courtyard, and he only heard him say lightly at the door, "If you come, you will be safe, your father's donation, I gladly accept it, but I still can't break the rules and let a woman come to the Mountain Hidden Courtyard to cultivate, unless..."
When He Xun heard Wu Zhifu's words outside the door, he immediately leaned on the door, looked in through the crack in the door, and asked, "Unless what?"
She saw Wu Zhifu behind the door gather his robe, coughed lightly, walked back to the eaves of the main hall, and dropped a sentence, "Unless you become a man." β
He Wei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said angrily, "Wu Zhifu! You're so embarrassed, do you want me to have sex reassignment surgery?" But Wu Zhifu didn't pay attention to her anymore.
He Wei, who was lying on the crack of the door, watched Wu Zhifu return to the eaves of the main hall, his eyes fell on the name engraved by He Wei on the pillar just now, he raised his hand and touched it, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Then He Wei saw him turn around, looked at the hundreds of disciples running in the courtyard, waved his hand, and said, "You guys come here." β
The hundreds of disciples who were running and exercising immediately all stopped, put on their cotton jackets again, and gathered in front of the main hall, standing in a neat and tidy group, and everyone looked at Wu Zhifu solemnly.
Every time Wu Zhifu asked everyone to gather in the courtyard, there was something big to announce, and the news of the opening of the library in the Shanyin Courtyard was notified by Wu Zhifu when he gathered last time, and I don't know what he wanted to notify about this sudden gathering.
The little Taoist priest stood at the back, his eyes looking at the closed door from time to time, and he was thinking about He Wei outside the door, so he was a little absent-minded. He Wei outside the door also noticed this little Taoist, so he pushed the gate frantically, pushing the door violently, and the little Taoist priest who was watching thought that the gate was about to fall.
Wu Zhifu didn't rush to say something, but instead called the little Taoist priest, "Feng Yichuan, come here." β
The little Taoist priest turned around in a panic and ran towards Wu Zhifu in front of the main hall with his head down. He Xun outside the door looked at the little Taoist priest who ran away and muttered, "It turns out that this little guy's name is Feng Yichuan." β
Feng Yichuan arrived in front of Wu Zhifu, Wu Zhifu looked at him a little helplessly, and pointed at the little Taoist priest with his finger.
Feng Yichuan scratched his head in embarrassment, looked back at the gate again, and whispered, "Uncle Shi, this is not the hospitality of our Mountain Hidden Courtyard...."
Wu Zhifu glared and said, "I have my own thoughts, you kid, don't be seduced by women, on the road of cultivation, women are the biggest obstacle, haven't you heard your master talk about it?"
Feng Yichuan made a bitter face and retorted, "How can I be hooked by a woman, my master has said to me many times, saying that women are a mountain on the road to enlightenment, once they meet, it is difficult to cross, I have long remembered it..."
"Then you kept staring at other girls just now?"
"I...."Feng Yichuan hesitated, and finally said: "Uncle Shi, although Shigong said that women are mountains, I remember that you seem to have said that there is a saying in the world, called men and women match, and they are not tired of working.... Right?"
Wu Zhifu was stunned for a moment, he thought about it carefully, as if he had really said this common saying to the disciples in the courtyard, and he said it very sincerely at that time.
I remember that when I went down the mountain to find a tailor to make cotton jackets for my disciples, Wu Zhifu met a couple of hard workers on the street, they were busy unloading a cart of red bricks, and the two of them were sweating in the heat of winter, but they still worked very hard, as if they didn't feel tired, especially the woman, who was skillful and fast, and did more work than men, as if they were afraid of tiring their own men. Men also seem to be afraid of tiring women, so they take down all the red bricks on the high places alone, because women are not tall enough, and she will have a hard time removing the red bricks on them.
This is a very common scene in today's society, but that day Wu Zhifu stood on the side of the road and watched it for a long, long time, and somehow, Wu Zhifu looked at the two people who unloaded the red bricks, and thought of the saying that men and women are matched and they are not tired of working.
There are a lot of sparks between men and women, men and women. Wu Zhifu suddenly remembered the most common Taiji diagram in the Daomen, the black and white fish are connected head to tail, the black fish has a white eye, the white fish has a black eye, I have you in my eyes, you have me in your eyes, the two complement each other, and coexist between heaven and earth.
That day, Wu Zhifu understood the doubts that had been unsolved for many years, the so-called yin and yang poles, for people, are just men and women in the world.
Feng Yichuan saw Wu Zhifu standing under the eaves of the main hall in a daze, so he called out to him, "Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu, what do you want?"
Wu Zhifu came back to his senses, looked at Feng Yichuan again, shook his head with his brows stretched, and said with a smile, "Yes, men and women match, you are not tired of work, you are not bad, my master has talked to you so much, you still remember what I said, then do you think that if I disobey your master again now, will he agree in the spirit of heaven?"
Feng Yichuan didn't know why, he looked at Wu Zhifu curiously, watched him lean into his ear, and told him something, and then Feng Yichuan left alone, not knowing what to do.
Next, Wu Zhifu looked at the hundreds of disciples who were still standing in front of the hall, his eyes crossed their faces one by one, and then he wanted to make his third rule, which would change the Mountain Hidden Academy, and change every Mountain Hidden Academy disciple present.
Feng Yichuan, who was sent away by Wu Zhifu, climbed up the wall when he ran to the warehouse in the backyard, he wanted to see if the girl named He Wei was still in front of the door, if so, Feng Yichuan was ready to tell her not to hurry up. But He Wei outside the door has disappeared, and he doesn't know when he left.
Feng Yichuan lost his energy, jumped off the wall weakly, sat on the ground, looked at the ground with blank eyes, and suddenly didn't want to go to the backyard warehouse.
His Royal Highness Wu Zhifu walked down the steps, he came to the ranks of many disciples, walked through each one, looked at these disciples of the Mountain Hidden Academy, looked at their young, immature, ignorant, and somewhat gradually mature faces.
"Do you remember those eight words I said to you when I took over the Mountain Hidden Courtyard?" Wu Zhifu walked out of the team and slowly walked towards His Highness again.
Hundreds of people shouted in unison, "Step on the old and usher in a new life." "Whether it's a young man in his early twenties, or a young guy who is eleven or twelve, there is a determined look on his face.
"Good. Wu Zhifu stood at the Great Highness again, looked at the many disciples, and said with emotion: "This world is changing all the time, there are more and more emerging things, many pedantic, in the current world, it is difficult to move an inch, so the seclusion of our mountain hermitage since ancient times will become more and more embarrassing." β
"For countless days and nights, I kept thinking, what kind of road should the road of our mountain hermit be to continue to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to cultivate solitude, or to enter the world to see the prosperity of the world? Where is our way?"
"I couldn't figure it out, and I couldn't figure it out for many years, but after Master Immortal passed away, I gradually understood where our Tao was. It is outside, between heaven and earth, above the vast earth, under the clouds of the nine heavens, within the red world. β
"That's why I tell you, stepping on the old and ushering in a new life, only by scrapping the old and creating the new can we survive for a long time. Wu Zhifu put one hand in front of his forehead, blocking the sunlight in the south, and said with a smile: "I want to start from your generation and walk out of the path of the Mountain Hidden Courtyard's own Daomen, children, do you understand?"
There were very few responses from hundreds of disciples, and there were not many disciples who could shout outright and understand.
Wu Zhifu would not be displeased by this, because he knew that among the disciples at present, there were still many ignorant teenagers, and they were still incomplete, and they could not understand what they were going to do for the time being. Wu Zhifu is not in a hurry, because Wu Zhifu has already found his own way at this time, he knows very well what he wants to do, and he also knows very well that these disciples will understand sooner or later that his own way is the best hidden orphan, as he said in the ancestral hall before.
The great hermit has always been hidden in the downtown area, the seclusion of the mountain hermitage, unique for thousands of years, but in the end it will eventually end up with the supreme Taoist philosophy, the so-called confluence of thousands of rivers, any vein of culture, will eventually return to the orthodox avenue.
Wu Zhifu looked at everyone, and suddenly became a little excited, His Royal Highness raised his voice slightly, and said loudly: "Now I want to abolish the rule that the Mountain Hidden Court does not accept women, and make a third rule, and in the future, the Mountain Hidden Court will allow women to enter the cultivation!"
The disciples didn't react for a while, only a few older ones understood what Wu Zhifu meant, and a smile appeared on their faces, remembering the pretty girl just now.
At this time, Feng Yichuan ran back, and he returned to Wu Zhifu dejectedly, holding a padded jacket in his arms, looking at the size, it was just right for He Ying. Feng Yichuan looked at Wu Zhifu standing in front of the hall, hugged his padded jacket and said wistfully, "Uncle Shi, that sister is gone..."
Wu Zhifu didn't care at all, and asked Feng Yichuan to put the padded jacket on the rattan chair, and then continued to talk to everyone.
"You have also seen the woman just now, that is the disciple of your master, and she has the grace of our Shanyin Academy, she wants to come to the Shanyin Academy to cultivate, I am now ready to accept her to get started, but you know, the Wudang Sixth Academy has always had strict rules, and all the academies are not allowed to accept female disciples, although I have abolished the rule that the Shanyin Academy does not accept female disciples, but for the time being, I can't let the rest of the Academies know about it, so I want you to forget her identity as a woman and treat her as a man, especially in the face of the other disciples of the Five Academies, you must keep this secretγ β
"Do you understand?" Wu Zhifu asked after looking at everyone.
This time, the answer is slightly more clear than the previous one.
But Feng Yichuan, who was standing beside Wu Zhifu, had a bitter face and said, "No one can find it, how can I collect it..."
Wu Zhifu turned to look at Feng Yichuan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, she will come back." β
-------------------------------------
In the middle of the afternoon, the sun sprinkled the entire Wudang Mountain, and the golden warm sun in winter gently shone on the peaks and the Wudang Sixth Courtyard.
The golden dome on Tianzhu Peak is even more golden in the sun, all the disciples of the Sixth Academy are in the courtyard, raise their heads and look from afar, they can see the golden dome that has gradually opened to people, and it has become a viewing area for foreign tourists to go up and admire the style of Wudang Mountain.
He Wei was sitting in a small open space in front of the golden dome at this time, there were tourists on the golden dome, she frowned and looked at the bottom of the mountain, look at this mountain, look at that mountain, with her heart in her mind, her spirit was sluggish.
"Uncle Stinky Master, if you want me to become a man, how can I change, can I still grow a little bird? Hmph! A person who is still a cultivator, what is it, it is simply unreasonable, bah, bastard!"
He Wei was angry when he thought of Wu Zhifu, and he didn't say anything about his uncle, didn't say anything about accepting his own money, and drove himself out, what was even more excessive was that he actually said that only when he became a man could he enter the Mountain Hidden Courtyard, which was too deceitful!
But angry is angry, He Wei also has to sigh that his master's status in the Mountain Hidden Courtyard is simply minimal, close to transparent.... His junior brother didn't take him to heart at all....
"Alas, Master, Master, you are so sad!" He Jing pouted, sat in front of the golden dome, looked at the Wudang Mountain, which was still beautiful in winter, and was full of emotion.
At the same time, He Wei turned his head to look at the Golden Palace behind him, looking at this huge building illuminated by the warm afternoon sun, the height must be at least ten meters, He Wei suddenly became interested, and got up and walked in.
Walking into the Golden Palace, looking at this bronze gilt hall of great significance, He Wei felt that this hall was really extraordinary, compared to the buildings he saw in Europe and the United States, compared to the mountain hidden courtyard below, it was also a lot more magnificent, especially when He Jing saw the bronze statue of Zhenwu, he felt that the atmosphere was magnificent, and the scale was grand.
In turn, He Xun went to think about the Mountain Hidden Courtyard again, there seems to be nothing worth seeing except for the stone statues of Sanqing, which is like here, just looking at it, it is refreshing, and the mood has become a lot better.
But He Jing thought about it, and still felt that the mountain hermit courtyard below was better, the grandeur here was magnificent, that is, there was less smoke in the mountain hermit courtyard, less kitchen that would smoke three meals a day, and less taste of ordinary life.
After comparing them in his heart, He Wei looked at the bronze statue of Zhenwu and whispered to himself, "I guess this is the place where immortals are ascended, so I don't feel like I'm in the world." β
He Wei, who was still looking at the bronze statue of Zhenwu, suddenly heard a burst of laughter, echoing throughout the hall.
He Wei was taken aback, turned his head to look in the hall, and found that he was alone in the hall, and no one else was present.
Then the laughter came again, and this time He Xun found the source, and it turned out to be from the bronze statue of Zhenwu.
So He Jing was horrified and said, "Oh my god, this thing is actually laughing!" The sudden laughter frightened the girl so much that she shouted out.
Then He Wei saw an old Taoist priest come out from the side of the bronze statue of Zhenwu, stroking his beard and looking at He Wei, who was a living person.
He Wei relieved himself a little, it turned out that he had not encountered a ghost. However, the old Taoist looked at He Wei and said unhappily, "What is this thing talking about, this is Zhenwu, this is not a thing." β
After finishing speaking, Lao Dao suddenly realized that what he said was wrong, so he hurriedly changed his words, "No, this is a thing." β
But after saying that, he felt that something was wrong, so he changed his words again, "No, it's not a thing.... Hey... It's not right, it seems that there is something wrong somewhere?"
"Hiss", Lao Dao gasped, hurriedly faced the bronze statue of Zhenwu, and said humbly: "Confused, confused, don't blame it...."
He Wei went from being surprised to hearing the laughter, slowly turning to amusement, and finally looked at Lao Dao and laughed heartily.
"Hahahaha.... There's a stupid old man here..."
Lao Dao turned his head, looked at He Xun, and said, "Girl, I'm not stupid, I'm a Taoist priest who guards the Golden Dome, and I'm only one step away from ascending to the sky and following the emperor..."
Lao Dao began to chatter, He Jing looked at it blankly, from the beginning he thought he saw a stupid old man, but later, he slowly felt that the more the old man said, the more outrageous it became, and he actually shook his head at himself, and shouted: Arctic Xuantian Renwei God, Yousheng Zhenjun Xuantian God, Demon Wandering Tianzun, Nine Heavens Demon Descending Ancestor, Arctic Town Zhenwu Xuantian Emperor, one after another titles popped out of his mouth.
He Wei was very curious and asked, "Old man, what are you talking about? I don't understand." β
