Chapter 194: Wudang Mountain
It's better to sleep early than to get up early, Li Chenfeng, who hesitated all night, finally stepped out of the inn, and the destination was naturally Wudang Mountain.
Wudang Mountain is not in Luoyang City, but it can also be seen from a distance through the sight, except for those towering rocks, the real Wudang School is built on not very high peaks.
There are not many people who go to the Taoist temple, except for some old people who are dedicated to Taoism, there are no young people who can be found at all, and occasionally a few people with patched clothes walk to Wudang Mountain with children who are only a few years old. The thick and reluctant eyes can see that this trip is to place the child on Wudang Mountain, so that he can have a meal and clothing.
Li Chenfeng not only lamented that in this world, the poor people can't even feed their children, but those high-ranking officials and nobles sing and dance every day, and the luxury of big fish and meat is more or less pulled out of the mouths of the people.
The two of them who were traveling on horseback were obviously much easier, and Li Chenfeng, who was supposed to go by himself, couldn't refuse Qin Qi's strong request, so he had to take her with him.
Qin Qi didn't wear that robe today, not even a hat. I don't know where I got the male clothes, which completely hides the original gender, but that white face, no matter how you look at it, there is a bit of a bewitching taste, no matter how you hide it, you can't hide it.
"Do you also want to go to Wudang Mountain to become a Taoist? Li Chenfeng looked at Qin Qidao, who was dressed as a man on horseback.
"What's not to do, you see where I don't look like a man!"
Qin Qi shook his arms as he spoke, and the pleasure of self-satisfaction was obvious.
"I don't think you look like a man. Li Chenfeng said with a smile.
Qin Qi, who was demolished, was a little dissatisfied, and raised his feet to kick in an air, the slightly larger shoes suddenly took off his feet and flew away, and the bell of his bare feet rang straight.
"Li Chenfeng!" Qin Qi shouted angrily.
Li Chenfeng, who couldn't hold back his smile, took the initiative to turn over and dismount, picked up the shoe that had been thrown out of the distance, returned to the horse, gently grabbed the jade foot that was dodging everywhere, and slowly put the shoe on.
After Li Chenfeng turned over and got on his horse, he continued to ride on horseback.
Qin Qi looked at the back walking in front of him, his little feet moved unconsciously, and a touch of shyness and satisfaction appeared on the face of the man dressed.
At the foot of Wudang Mountain, Li Chenfeng looked at the stone staircase that stretched to the top of the mountain in front of him, and he couldn't count how many layers there were, but with his current sick body, it was obviously a big challenge.
After a slight hesitation, Li Chenfeng turned over and dismounted, and stepped onto the first stone ladder of Wudang Mountain.
Qin Qi wanted to ride up, but when he saw Li Chenfeng insisting on stepping up, he had no choice but to abandon his horse and walk on the stone stairs with him.
The Wudang Taoist Temple sits on top of a mountain peak, and the stone staircase is built on top of a steep mountain, sometimes straight up, sometimes circling around the mountain. Ascending to the sky is naturally a very tiring physical work, and this is especially true for Li Chenfeng today.
Just stepping on the stone stairs halfway up the mountain, I was already sweating, so I had to stop and rest. Although there are beads of sweat on Qin Qi's forehead, he doesn't feel too tired, and those who practice martial arts know how to regulate pranayama internally, and the higher the realm, the higher the mountains and mountains, the same as walking on the ground.
At this time, if Li Chenfeng had a sword qi to protect his body, he must have already made a sword and flew to the Taoist temple early. It was precisely because of the loss of sword qi that he naturally came to this Wudang Mountain, with rats in his heart, and did some things like stealing chickens and dogs.
If this purity of heart is not something in charge, it is easy to say. If you don't sell your money, you can also kowtow a few times, beg for others, and send yourself a creation.
The problem lies in this damn pure heart, since it is the mental method that can only be cultivated by the head of Wudang Mountain, you can't kowtow a few times, and people will even send you together.
In Li Chenfeng's impression, the bull-nosed Taoist priests are all guys who only admit death and don't know how to be flexible, if they let them take out something, I'm afraid it will have the same meaning than letting them die.
After stopping more than a dozen times along the way, Li Chenfeng, who was physically exhausted, finally saw the tile roof at the entrance of the temple on the stone staircase, and after gritting his teeth and persevering, he completely stepped on the stone platform, where the magnificent stone pillar of the faΓ§ade stood, and there was an incomprehensible sermon carved on it.
The two Taoist boys who were originally playing next to the stone pillar stopped their unfinished fun when they saw someone coming, and looked at the guests standing on the stone platform.
The white-haired Li Chenfeng naturally made them take a few more looks, especially the cinnabar red spot in the center of their forehead, which aroused their curiosity even more. When he saw that the two of them were also looking at themselves, Dao Tong, who had not experienced human affection, hurriedly withdrew his gaze and did not dare to take another look.
"Are you here to ask for a sign and burn incense to pray for blessings?" asked Dao Tong timidly.
Li Chenfeng shook his head with a smile, and expressed his denial like this, which made the two Taoist boys who were not very familiar with things not know how to ask questions again.
"I'm here to be a Taoist priest. β
The child thought that he had misheard, and only after carefully looking at the pair of eyes that were not joking did he react, pointed to the temple on the stone staircase and said: "The top is a special place to accept people, and the two of them go up." β
Looking at the Taoist temple that is separated by a stone staircase, Li Chenfeng still stepped forward even if he had tens of millions of distractions in his heart, and his extremely weak appearance obviously had a tendency to not want to take a step.
Dao Tong stayed in place, looking at the white-haired son to his waist, the curious look in his eyes did not diminish at all, and he couldn't even understand why such a good-looking son came to Wudang Mountain to suffer and suffer.
After stepping the second stone staircase, the two of them stayed on the spacious stone platform, the Taoist temple with strong Taoist blood is in front of them, and the colorful and eye-catching decoration makes the whole Taoist temple have a different meaning, giving people the impression that the Taoist temple is like this.
The incineration stove standing on the platform is burning with long incense that has not yet been burned, and several old people dressed up in ordinary people have a solemn expression without the slightest hint of slackness.
Li Chenfeng did not come with incense with him, and he had to give up after looking at the incinerator and walked towards the Taoist temple.
In the Taoist temple, the Emperor Zhenwu stands majestically in the view, and several old people on the futon in front of the statue are praying for blessings.
Li Chenfeng naturally won't kneel down and pray, his trip is not pure, is he going to tell him on the territory of Emperor Zhenwu that he wants to come to you to steal something, so as to bless me with the success of stealing.
"Good faith. β
The sudden greeting interrupted Li Chenfeng's fantasy, and then he saw the young Taoist priest standing in front of him.
"Is there anything you need help with?" Everyone who comes to Wudang Mountain is confused, or people whose lives are not satisfactory, and now that the world is chaotic, all the Taoist temple can do is to spread the scriptures and solve their doubts.
Li Chenfeng raised his hand to salute and replied respectfully: "I want to worship Ruwudang Mountain." β
The young Taoist priest obviously didn't expect that the rich and well-dressed son in front of him wanted to worship at the foot of Wudang Mountain. Then he looked at another good-looking man next to him.
"What about this good faithful?"
Qin Qi suppressed his throat and made his voice sound extremely deep: "I'm also here to become a monk!"
At first glance, the two of them are the sons of a big family, and they don't enjoy the good fortune, but they want to come to Wudang Mountain to be a Taoist priest and suffer crimes, which really makes the young Taoist who crawled out of the suffering scratch his head.
If it weren't for self-cultivation and moral cultivation, maybe he would have pointed at the noses of the two and scolded: "Is your brain broken?" β
"Have you thought about it, two good men?" said the young Taoist.
Li Chenfeng and Qin Qi nodded, their eyes quite affirmative.
"Come with me, both of you. β
The young Taoist priest greeted the other Taoist priests, and then led the two of them through the Taoist temple to the place where ordinary Taoist priests lived.
I met a lot of Taoist priests on the way, from middle-aged to children, all looking at two strangers who had never met.
After passing through a few aisles, the young Taoist priest stopped at a door, made a gesture of waiting for the two of them for a moment, and then knocked on the door.
