Chapter Forty-Eight: The Soldiers Block the Way

Cangtian Temple Mountain is surrounded by water, the temple is like a forest, solemn and magnificent.

During the conversation in the carriage, Song Yuan and Zhong Bao arrived at the Cangtian Temple.

Led by Cangtian Temple, Miao Zhu and others, they got off the carriage and walked into the temple, and arranged two courtyards to live.

"Brother Song, I'll take you for a walk around the temple. ”

Zhong Bao proposed.

Cangtian Temple is generally the same, plus he lived in the temple for a day before, and he is very familiar with this Cangtian Temple.

"Good. ”

Song Yuan naturally would not refuse.

It is unlikely that he will join the Cangtian Sect in the future, and he can take this opportunity to learn more about the Cangtian Sect.

First of all, the main hall in the temple, after stepping in, Song Yuan raised his eyes and saw a deep blue circle embroidered with auspicious clouds, deep and lofty, hanging high on the wall.

Cangtian Sect believes in the sky, but the sky is formless and formless, so it is replaced by a piece of dark blue cloth embroidered with auspicious clouds, and believers worship the green cloth, which is equivalent to worshiping the sky.

Under the sky map, there is a lifelike statue of a god.

Middle-aged, wearing a robe, long hairpins, generous appearance, and a kind of compassion for all beings in his eyes, which makes people feel kind.

This is the Heavenly Sect Master.

According to legend, the leader of the Cangtian Sect is a wisp of spirituality from the heavens, and can be regarded as the embodiment of the heavens in the world, and is naturally qualified to stand under the heavens and accept the worship and worship of believers together with the heavens.

In Zhong Bao's narration and introduction, Song Yuan looked at the statue of the Heavenly Sect Master and the picture of the heavens, and inexplicably felt an infinite majesty, and there was no blasphemy in his heart.

"The statues and the cloth are no more than ordinary materials, which is probably the reason why the people and things they carry are extraordinary. ”

As the sect leader of one of the seventy-two blessed lands in the world, the strength of the Cangtian Sect Master can be imagined.

Point the stone into gold, bring the dead back to life, divide the land into the river, move the mountains and reclaim the sea......

What the legendary immortals can do, I'm afraid the other party can do too.

As for the Sky Diagram, he felt that it might be even more ordinary.

"The main hall is dedicated to the Heavenly Diagram and the sect leader, and the side hall and other halls are dedicated to the major elders and hall masters in the sect, and the closer to the main hall is the higher the status in the sect. ”

"Brother Song come with me. ”

Zhong Bao led Song Yuan to the second hall closest to the main hall and came to a statue of a god.

An old man, with a green and thin figure, a wisp of white beard under his chin, a bit of fairy wind bones, a serious expression, giving people a bit of old-fashionedness, frowning slightly, and looking ahead.

"Brother Song, this is my master Ji Yunzi. ”

"This idol is almost exactly like my master. ”

Zhong Bao looked at the lifelike statue and felt quite interesting touching his chin.

Song Yuan took a closer look at the statue and looked down.

On the base of the idol, there is an introduction to the idol.

The Swift Cloud Immortal, one of the protectors of the Upper Throne.

In the seventy-ninth year of Wushu Kingdom, there was a plague that swept through Jinwen and Cangkang counties, most of the people were sick, and the corpses were piled up like mountains.

In the 162nd year of Kunguo, the three counties of Jingyuan suffered a drought for several years, the people changed their children and ate, starvation was everywhere, and the people of the Qiyun Immortals called for wind and rain to let Ganlin fall to end the drought, and made the rice seeds mature overnight and saved countless people.

In the forty-sixth year of the prosperous country, the snake demon was in turmoil, rampant, and the disciples of the Jiyun Immortal held the magic sword and went down the mountain to kill the demon......

The temple records the various exploits of Jiyunzi to save the common people.

Some of them were done by himself, and some of them were done by his disciples and disciples, but he did his best in the middle.

Song Yuan looked at the statue of Ji Yunzi, walked to the other gods and looked at it, thoughtful.

The deeds done by each of the statues enshrined in the temple can be called a saint who saves the suffering.

The world is so big, it is understandable that there are one or two saints who care about the world.

But with so many appearances at once, it feels a little abnormal.

Isn't it natural for cultivators to stay in the mountains and concentrate on cultivation regardless of mundane things?

How could he sacrifice his own and his disciples' cultivation time and work tirelessly to save mortals by spending mana.

"It's not that simple. ”

Song Yuan vaguely guessed.

The Heavenly Sect Leader and Ji Yunzi and the others will definitely benefit from this, so they will all do so.

"Merit or incense?"

Song Yuan's eyes moved slightly, and the only benefits he could think of for the time being were those two things that the Cangtian Sect could get from these things.

"It feels more like the latter, otherwise the Cangtian Sect would not have gone to great lengths to build Cangtian Temples in various places, and set up statues of the Cangtian Sect Master and Ji Yunzi and others.

Most of the cultivation methods of the Cangtian Sect use incense to assist in cultivation. ”

Song Yuan looked at Zhong Bao again.

But Zhong Bao didn't seem to know about it.

Maybe it won't be until later in the cultivation journey that you will use incense to cultivate. ”

Zhong Bao and Song Yuan walked around the Cangtian Temple, and returned to the courtyard to continue talking.

During the conversation, Song Yuan turned to know more about the affairs of the cultivation world.

For example, the cultivation sect he imagined before was that the rules were strict, and the disciples needed to stay in the sect from time to time to obey the orders of the master and the dispatch of the sect.

But from Zhong Bao's mouth, he learned that in fact, the cultivation sects are often very loose.

Disciples worship in the cultivation sect to practice, and after learning and art, they can go down the mountain, go out freely to open up caves, and accept apprentices to teach art.

If you don't want to go down the mountain, it's naturally okay to stay in the sect and continue to cultivate.

Neither the sect nor the master needs the disciple to stay by his side to serve and obey orders at all times.

If there is something temporary, then let people call it up with a decree.

The two talked until late at night.

Finally, Zhong Bao proposed.

"Brother Song, the drought in Huaiqing County has been lifted, so it's better for us to leave here tomorrow and return to Shanmen. ”

He was afraid that the county guard would come to the door again in two days to invite him, and then he would not be able to refuse.

"Absolutely. ”

"I don't have much to do here anyway. ”

Song Yuan nodded and agreed.

He may have been chasing behind him, so naturally he wanted to leave here earlier than Zhong Bao to worship under the door of Jiyunzi, or to learn where Qingxu Mountain was, and rush to Qingxu Mountain as soon as possible.

Return to your courtyard and rest for the night

Day 2.

Due to Zhong Bao's practice, there will be a downpour in Huaiqing County for the next six or seven days.

When I woke up in the morning, the sky was overcast and the sky was gray, and the rain was still falling.

With Song Yuan and Zhong Bao's foot strength, they didn't have to ride in a carriage.

But because of the heavy rain, the road was full of mud, in order not to stain their clothes and shoes, the two decided to let the people of Cangtian Temple send them out of Huaiqing County first.

In front of the Cangtian Temple, Miao Zhu and others held umbrellas to say goodbye.

Song Yuan and Zhong Bao got into the carriage, and the coachman in the coat drove the carriage all the way to the east.

But he didn't go far before he was stopped by a group of soldiers.

"Immortal Master, for some reason, there is a large group of soldiers blocking the way ahead, and it is difficult to pass. ”

The carriage stopped suddenly, and the panicked voice of the coachman came from outside the carriage.

"Soldiers?"

Song Yuan and Zhong Bao looked puzzled, and got out of the carriage with umbrellas.
