Chapter 4 Taoism

Since we are talking about Taoist temples, we have to explore the origin of this Taoist master. Although he calls himself "Xuanqing Dao Chief", this is just one of his Taoist names in the mortal world, just to make it easier to interact with people. Generally, he still likes people close to him to call him by his full name "Qingxuan".

It is probably said that Hongmeng was at the beginning of its opening, and not long after the heaven and earth turned into Qi, there were two people on Juling Mountain who crossed the catastrophe and ascended. The first to cross the catastrophe was a mortal with complete merits, and after becoming a god, he directly became the mountain saint of Juling Immortal Mountain, and at the same time was in charge of the entry and exit of the wind, and his name was Zhedan. The strange thing is that this Zhedan only allows other people to call him the Mountain Sage, and if he calls him "Wind Master", he will be angry. The other is this "Xuanqing".

This "Xuanqing" is really a crane. After absorbing the aura on this mountain for a long time, he turned into a human body, and took advantage of the convenience to double cultivate with Zhedan in the mountain. Previously, the order of the world was unstable, he stayed in the mountains and felt idle, so he participated in the three battles of gods and demons since the flood famine, and the result was that in this battle of gods and demons, he killed the head of the demon lord with a true sword, and since then he has become famous, promoted to three levels in a row, and was named Qingxuan Tianzun by Hongjun Ancestor, and gave the Heavenly Court Miaoyan Palace as a residence.

Because his qualifications are considered highly respected among the gods, the ordinary gods don't dare to breathe when they see him. But since "that incident", the old Heavenly Court collapsed, and the new Heavenly Court began to carry out the plan they wanted, so in the name of the gods, those ancient immortals who threatened the new heavenly court were eliminated. Qing Xuan didn't show his attitude, but went down to the realm without a sound, and became a wandering impostor Taoist priest in the world, with the Taoist name Xuanqing.

The common people in the world first only said that Qingxuan was Taiyi to save the suffering Tianzun, and the hell karma could be cremated into a lotus pond, and later it was rumored that if they encountered difficulties, as long as they prayed to Tianzun or "recited the holy name", they could "solve their worries and solve difficulties, and turn evil into good fortune" and finally somehow became also "the merit is complete, and the sun ascends to heaven", so his temple Taoist incense is endless, and there is a steady stream of good men and women. The noise all day made his head hurt. I remember that when he first went to the lower realm, he once walked into his Taoist temple out of curiosity, and saw that the statue on the seat was an old man, sitting with kind eyebrows and distorted eyes, staring at him with a smile, and couldn't help but feel funny. Listen to the prayers of those ordinary people again: "Eh, Tianzun bless our family with a few big fat boys!" "It's not a day or two since Wang Ergou next door stole my eggs!Tianzun, you can help me beat him well!" "I want Zhao Yuanwai's daughter to marry me, but she doesn't like men! Tianzun, let her change her mind!" Qing Xuan didn't finish listening, and he couldn't control himself when he got into it, and laughed wildly in the Taoist temple, and was kicked out as a fool.

In fact, in the eyes of those immortals, most of the people are like this, except for a few specific gods, such as the God of Wealth, the Lord of the Stove, etc., others can be used to worship indiscriminately.

Very few immortals see what their temples and Taoist temples look like, but he likes to go there twice in three days, and perhaps it is interesting for him to watch others do to him without knowing it.

Qing Xuan's temper has always been very strange, people drove him out of his own temple, he was not annoyed, but he chose another mountain and built a Taoist temple for himself, one to rest for himself, and to facilitate him to relieve his suffering, this Taoist temple is the Ling Xuan Temple that Yun saw at will.

But he was not a good builder of Taoist temples. In addition, when he first cultivated this Ling Xuan Temple, there were others talking about it on the side, and now this Taoist Temple may be able to give thousands of people a rest at the same time. Among them, the highest building, the "Descending Immortal Building", soars into the sky, and the top is no longer in the swirling clouds, which makes this Taoist temple magnificent.

Seeing such a huge complex for the first time, Yun casually turned his neck to the east and west, and almost turned his head off. The Dao Chang gently poked the flesh on her face with one finger, and she moved her gaze to the Dao Chang as if she had just woken up from a dream, and blinked her eyes twice.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Great Wilderness East Classic": "In the great wilderness, there is a mountain named Juling in the sky, the east pole, away from the sky, the sun and the moon come out. There are people (the two words are not original, according to Wang Niansun and Hao Yixing) the name is Zhedan - the east is said to be folded, and the wind is said to be Jun - at the east pole to enter and exit the wind. ”
